Redeemed

True Status by Chuck Richardson is a powerful Christian allegorical tale.

It is the journey of one man from rejected to redeemed. We see that life is a spiritual battle. God longs for us to come to Him. “Reach out and find Him. He has always been near you, but you refused.” If we reject God there is another – the enemy – who wants our soul. The enemy will do what he can to divert and distract us from following God.

Be careful which voices you listen to. “Do not listen to your accusers. They are not of God.” God longs to speak life and love to us. The enemy brings death and eternal damnation. Choose God. Choose life.

We cannot work our way to Heaven. “Good work is not going to save your soul.” Jesus is the way, the truth and the life. We need to ‘believe and be baptized.’

Prayer is important. “He heard me. He just didn’t answer the way I wanted Him to.” God will always answer our prayers in His way and in His timing. He is never too early or too late.

Sometimes we feel misunderstood. “Jesus understands when you hurt real bad and He cares.” Jesus walks beside us through all the seasons of life.

True Status is full of godly scripture. Incorporated into the tale are explanations for portions of scripture. There is plenty for us to think about.

True Status will aid your walk with God if you take in, and apply, the godly truths to your life.
