Vicki and I are currently going through a Bible Study called, “God’s Heart of the Nations” that is focused on missions.  There was a great commentary by the author that has really impacted me and I wanted to share it here.

“One of my favorite statements that I use to shake up people is, “Jesus is not your personal Savior.”  We live in a culture where personal means mine.  You don’t get a personal pan pizza to share it, or hire a personal trainer to share him, and you don’t want everyone using your personal computer.  Now, don’t get me wrong, I believe that you must receive Jesus personally and that one of the benefits of salvation is that we can have a personal and intimate relationship with the living God.  But, Jesus is not our personal possessive savior, he is “Savior of the world.””

Well said.
