Christianity is more than a 'get out of hell free pass', a set of rules, and a ministry. This is called Defensive Christianity, focusing on resisting Satan rather than aggressively pursuing Jesus.
Jesus is much more than what most people think. People know him for what he does, but not for who he is. Sure, he is a healer, provider, director, and savior, but he is SO much more than that!
Phil. 3:8 reads "I count all things loss for the excellence [Magnificence] of the knowledge of Jesus Christ..."
Paul [who is speaking in the scripture above] gave up everything after seeing God in his glory for only a few short moments!
Only the Holy Spirit can show us who Jesus is, but remember, he gives based on our hunger, he will not force-feed us
Jesus is the most pleasurable reality anyone can experience
He is the most costly treasure, but far more valuable and lasting than any other
He is the most neglected subject in the modern church
and He will be the most emphasized truth in the generation in which the Lord returns
