Oxymoron

A blanket without fabric, water without H2O, those would be Oxymorons!  "To be entirely honest I know of nothing quite so boring (oxymoronic) as Christianity without Christ.  Countless people have stopped going to a place of worship simply because they are sick of going through the motions of a dead religion.  They are tired of trying to start a car on a empty tank.  What a pity that there are not more people around to show them that Jesus Christ is alive.  I know of nothing so utterly exciting as being a Christian,sharing the very life of Jesus Christ on earth right here and now, being caught up with Him in relentless, invincible purposes of the Almighty God, and having available to us all the limitless resources of Deity for accomplishing those purposes." (A quote from Major W Ian Thomas)

So what about YOU?  Are you a Christian without Christ.  If so you are a oxymoron!

2 Corinthians 5:17 AMP
Therefore if any person is [ingrafted] in Christ (the Messiah) he is a new creation (a new creature altogether); the old [previous moral and spiritual condition] has passed away. Behold, the fresh and new has come!
