I recently came across a observation from a Christian in India, Sandhu Singh. Singh pulled a rock from a river and when he broke it open, he observed the inside of the stone was perfectly dry. Even though the rock had been in the river for a long time, the water had not penetrated the stone. He noted the similarity between this rock and some Christians who have been surrounded by Christianity for their entire lives but it has not penetrated their lives. It has not changed their soul.
This observation is what we have repeatedly emphasized in this blog—being a Christian is more than having certain beliefs. God requires that our soul be changed so it is like him.
