Amen.
I was reading a booklet tonight, and the man basically said that the devil has no fear of people who call themselves Christians, but do not follow Christ. As a matter of fact, it is his greatest tool! By our lack of Christlikeness, we have given, for example, the Jews every reason to justify their unbelief.
'Claiming' the name of Christ has no power, unless we actually walk in his authority and life.
The kingdom is counter to all the worlds politics, and shows a completely different way. Unless we walk by that, we lack the 'revolutionary' aspect of Christ. That revolution is nothing like the worlds, but when Christ comes in he truly brings in a new element, that requires things to change. We are to bring in that same element, that is what makes us Christians, imitators of Christ!
