Default Never Talked to Jesus? Here's How to Start - 08-21-2022, 03:25 PM

Newbie Christians have told me they feel self-conscious even thinking about their first visit with Jesus. They have no experience. Since they are new Christians no one has taught them step one in the conversation with Jesus.

Best to talk to one of our pastors about this. Until then I can offer lay advice. Your first visit with Jesus should go like this:

Dear Jesus--Thank you for hearing my prayer. Let me start by praying for dear Pastor Zeke and Landover Baptist Church. It would be so nice if you could expedite purchase of Pastor Zeke's new Airbus.

Jesus, please forgive me for the sins I have committed. Then protect me from falling into the worst sin of all, homerism. I, in turn, promise to be faithful in my tithing. Amen.

When you do talk with Jesus, make sure that you treat Him like your Lord and Savior, The King of the Universe, and not your favorite member of some boy band.

Some serious-minded Christians pointed out that evangelist Beth Moore expressed her love of Jesus in a disrespectful way.


Remember that our love for The Lord should never be confused with any romantic longings. He is The Head of the church and we are The Bride of Christ. We need to bow before Him, not tilt our heads and offer up a sly wink.


His left hand should be under my head, and his right hand should embrace me.

Absolutely, Sister Handy. You will not find in the Bible, "It's OK to tell Jesus something you do not mean and then go wink-wink."

Since Jesus is not here to defend Himself (yet), that is why He needs earthly muscle on earth to protect His spiritual virtues. The nerve of that lady.

Sexual urges towards Christ Our Lord and Baby are wrong and strictly off the table, even for men. Especially for men. Thou shalt not touch oneself while thinking of hung Jesus.

She was probably on her period. That's one reason Jesus does not allow female preachers.

Many who chose to visit with Jesus benefited greatly from their encounter. While some were no doubt nervous at first,
I'm beginning to wonder about The Christian Post, in particular their familiarity with Jesus in the historical record. Roman centurions, demon possessed self mutilators, rich young men, poverty stricken crones, none of them seemed nervous – quite the reverse in fact. Pawing at Him, tugging His clothes, describing their convulsing progeny and dead relatives. Jesus did not necessarily mind this but that's not the point.

Luke 18:9a, 10, 13 And [Jesus] spake this parable . . . Two men went up into the temple to pray; the one a Pharisee, and the other a publican . . . And the publican, standing afar off, would not lift up so much as his eyes unto heaven, but smote upon his breast, saying, God be merciful to me a sinner.

Regardless of where his eyes were pointing, this publican was not averse to presenting his case and in a fairly dramatic manner. As you know, I'm fond of train travel; the clickety-clack of the wheels, the novelty of ordering soup in the dining car, the various lounges and comfortable bedding, all combine for a lovely journey: except sometimes there's an "unusual" passenger: I'm recalling one now.

It was one of the lounges. He didn't seem (i.e. smell) intoxicated but was rocking back and forth and staring at the carpet. "Nervous" was not a word I've have used to describe him and he was making vocal noises. Neither sighing nor wailing, neither happy not sad, just noises. Suddenly, and to everyone's surprise, he started waving his arms around and banging his chest/torso/head etc., all the while staring fixedly at the floor of the train.

Gradually the noises became words. Those few of us remaining preferred the vague noises – the salient feature of the whole performance being an utter lack of nervousness or reticence of any description. It's a big thing with beaters of themselves upon the chest. They are not nervous.

Christ's example, although avoiding eye contact and remaining aloof, seems very much not nervous. Many other things? Sure. But not nervous. Which is why I wonder about The Christian Post – but thank you for posting examples; I'll continue reading them to see if they agree with Scripture in the future.
