Things were so much simpler when we were younger. Does anybody remember when you were in grade school? How if you like someone you would write them a note. The note would be very simple and to the point. Do you like me check yes [] or no []. Then if they did like you like you, they would check the little yes box and you guys would be boyfriend and girlfriend, in a relationship. Every now and then you might write a note (do you like me check yes or no) and get a maybe sent back. That would leave you scratching your head because you didn't even draw a box for maybe.
This is how we treat God sometimes. By responding to His invitation to be in a relationship with us with a maybe. He probably looks at us like, who told you maybe was even an option? Either we love Him or we don’t. Luke 11:23 He that is not with me is against me: and he that gathereth not with me scattereth. Many of us that aren't ready to commit, reverence God enough to not check no. Therefore we feel maybe is appropriate response. I want to clear that up for you today. Maybe might as well mean No as far as your relationship status with Christ is concerned. You can’t be a little married or a little pregnant. You either are or you’re not. Both circumstances show significant signs that if it were true it would be seen.
Grab and go: Christ is simple, and His love overwhelming. We are the one's who complicate Him and distort His Love. The proposal is simple, if you love Him check yes if not check no.
