The cynics have figured it out.

They understand why people convert to Christianity.

I’ve seen the gleeful declarations in a million blog comments.

“Jesus is a crutch!”

“Christians use religion to ease their consciences.”

“People convert because they feel guilty.”

Inexplicably, Christians argue with these statements.

These are the ONLY true things pagans ever say about religious faith.

There is no reason to become a Christian if you’re perfect.

Thinking Christians understand this…

…and celebrate it.

If you are a Christian for any reason other than your own vulgar sin…

…ask God for wisdom.

Because you’re an imposter.

If you are NOT a Christian because you hate hypocrisy …

…you’re a hypocrite.

You should ask God for wisdom too.

But you won’t.

You don’t need wisdom.

You mock the wisdom of the gospel.

Even after describing it perfectly!

“People follow Jesus because they’re weak!”

Yes! You nailed it!

I’m also afraid!

Without Jesus, I’d be just like you.

That terrifies me.

I’d be an arrogant, boorish, sanctimonious fool.

Which is why…

…thank God…

…I became a Christian.

Before me no god was formed, nor will there be one after me. I, even I, am the Lord, and apart from me there is no savior.

– Isaiah 43:10
