Now that you are baptized...

Many men and women sing and sing about what is the earthly benefit of the heavenly realities that we possess. What are the benefits? Why do we spend our lives committed to knowing the whats and the whys of our belief system?
"In the sight of the church, he hasn't any name?" said Whitley in Life with Father
He was a completely catechized believer of an earlier millennium. He held to his mother's secure faith in God and desired to see his father in the same secure spiritual condition as he was. Father was a free spirit, just following the protocols. Is that what men are supposed to be? Is it the reflection of real masculinity to leave the spiritual things to the more sensitive women in their lives? No way man! God wants men who will be living examples of the "bosom of Abraham" on earth. Safe and real believing men, who trust God, in front of people. Men who love people with their lives and give the glory and the praise to God.
Anything less is effeminate{at best}.
We have a real and masculine God.
Take your name{in the sight of the church} Your baptized self and be bold enough to be a real and useful Christian man. I pray that for you, in Jesus' name, AMEN.
