The contradiction in the lives of majority of Nigerian church goers who claim to be Christians is that their lifestyles are contrary to the commandments of Jesus Christ and they don't even follow His teachings. And that's why they have empty lives.
Our Lord Jesus Christ said:
Matthew 5:13 "You are the salt of the earth. But if the salt loses its saltiness, how can it be made salty again? It is no longer good for anything, except to be thrown out and trampled underfoot.
Matthew 5:16 In the same way, let your light shine before others, that they may see your good deeds and glorify your Father in heaven.
Luke 11:33 "No one lights a lamp and puts it in a place where it will be hidden, or under a bowl. Instead they put it on its stand, so that those who come in may see the light.
Hebrews 13:8 Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and forever.
NOW LOOK AT YOUR LIFE
Does your life have any saltiness (worthiness) to your society or you are just living for yourself?
Is your life shining in the world?
Do you shine for others to see your good works?
Or you don't even have any good work to show at all?
Lest we forget, your works are your achievements and your achievements are your legacy.
