Untuk menjadi<\/span><\/span> pengikut Kristus<\/span> adalah sebuah pilihan<\/span> dan<\/span> sebagai<\/span><\/span> mana <\/span><\/span>Yesus<\/span><\/span> <\/span>telah katakan<\/span>, ini adalah pilihan yang sulit<\/span><\/span>. Iman kita<\/span> <\/span>mengatakana bahwa<\/span> bahwa surga<\/span><\/span> itu<\/span><\/span><\/span> adalah<\/span><\/span> nyata<\/span><\/span>, <\/span>dan semua ingin masuk surga, <\/span>tetapi iman<\/span><\/span> saja tidak cukup<\/span> untuk membawa<\/span> kita di sana<\/span>. Untuk<\/span> mengakui iman<\/span> dan<\/span> mengetahui<\/span> isi dari iman kita<\/span> adalah<\/span> penting<\/span><\/span> adanya<\/span><\/span>, tetapi<\/span><\/span> <\/span>ini <\/span>tidak<\/span><\/span>lah<\/span><\/span> lengkap<\/span><\/span>. Kita perlu<\/span><\/span> melakukan tindakan nyata agar<\/span><\/span> iman kita<\/span><\/span> <\/span><\/span>terwujud menjadi kenyataan<\/span>. Jika tidak<\/span>, iman kita menjadi<\/span><\/span> sekedar sebuah<\/span><\/span> retorika<\/span><\/span> belaka.<\/span> Dalam<\/span><\/span><\/span> perkataannya yang keras<\/span><\/span> \u200b\u200bSt<\/span><\/span><\/span>. Yakobus menulis<\/span><\/span>, “<\/span>iman tanpa perbuatan adalah mati<\/span> (<\/span><\/span>Yak <\/span><\/span>2:17)<\/span><\/span>.” Iman adalah<\/span> anugerah Allah,<\/span><\/span> tetapi untuk membuat anugerah<\/span><\/span> Allah<\/span><\/span> <\/span><\/span>ini sungguh <\/span>berbuah<\/span><\/span> adalah pilihan dari kebebasan kita<\/span><\/span>.<\/span><\/div>\n
Ini adalah pilihan yang<\/span><\/span> radikal<\/span> untuk menghayati<\/span> iman<\/span> kita sehari-hari<\/span>. Kita<\/span> dapat<\/span> dibaptis sebagai<\/span> Katolik<\/span>, namun kita tidak pernah<\/span> pergi ke<\/span> Gereja<\/span>. Kita<\/span> mengakui<\/span> keyakinan kita<\/span> hanya pada satu Tuhan<\/span>, tapi kita<\/span><\/span> <\/span><\/span>terus<\/span><\/span> membaca<\/span><\/span> horoskop<\/span>, konsultasi<\/span> <\/span>dengan peramal <\/span>dan menggunakan<\/span><\/span> barang-barang religius<\/span> sebagai<\/span> jimat<\/span> pelindung<\/span> belaka.<\/span> Kita dapat dengan mudah<\/span> berteriak<\/span>, “<\/span>Tuhan itu baik<\/span>!<\/span>” tapi kita<\/span> mengeluh<\/span> <\/span>setiap saat di <\/span>dalam hidup kita<\/span><\/span>. Kita diinstruksikan oleh<\/span> Yesus sendiri<\/span> untuk mengasihi musuh kita<\/span>, namun kita<\/span> <\/span>senang <\/span>memelihara<\/span><\/span> kebencian<\/span>, tetap<\/span><\/span> memupuk<\/span><\/span> dendam<\/span><\/span> dan mengambil<\/span><\/span><\/span> kesenangan<\/span><\/span> ketika<\/span><\/span> musuh kita<\/span> <\/span><\/span>jatuh tertimpa tangga<\/span>.<\/span><\/div>\n
Kita<\/span><\/span> ingin<\/span> dipanggil<\/span> seorang pengikut Kristus<\/span>, tapi kita<\/span> tidak benar-benar<\/span> mengikuti jejak<\/span>-Nya. Kita<\/span> ingin menjadi<\/span> Kristiani<\/span>, namun kita<\/span> mengadopsi<\/span> gaya<\/span> yang cocok<\/span> <\/span>dengan diri <\/span>kita sendiri<\/span><\/span> dan<\/span><\/span> bukannya<\/span><\/span> meneladani<\/span><\/span> Kristus<\/span><\/span>. Ini adalah masalah<\/span> serius<\/span> dan <\/span><\/span><\/span>sungguh <\/span><\/span>kita <\/span><\/span>mensia-siakan <\/span><\/span>surga.<\/span><\/span> Jika kita<\/span> mencoba untuk<\/span> parafrase<\/span> Injil hari ini<\/span>, <\/span>munkin akan <\/span>terdengar<\/span><\/span> seperti ini<\/span>: <\/span>\u201c<\/span>Kita<\/span><\/span> mengetuk<\/span> pintu gerbang<\/span> surga dan<\/span> berteriak<\/span> “<\/i><\/span>Tuhan, aku pengikut<\/span><\/i><\/span>-Mu<\/span><\/i><\/span>“, tetapi Tuhan<\/span> berkata,<\/span> “<\/span>Aku tidak tahu<\/span><\/span><\/i> kamu<\/span><\/i><\/span> karena <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/i>kamu<\/span><\/i><\/span> tidak pernah<\/span><\/i><\/span> benar-benar<\/span> ikuti<\/span><\/span><\/i> Aku<\/span><\/i><\/span>.”<\/span><\/i><\/div>\n
