       There are many people out there who were brought up in a church, but as they got older, they decided not to follow Jesus. If you’re one of those people today, maybe you saw those around you not practicing what they said they believed, and this put a bad taste in your mouth in regard to Christianity. Maybe you knew people who were severely legalistic and strict in the way they conducted their lives, and this turned you off from the faith. Well, I want to tell you today that Jesus was not legalistic, and is not legalistic. And there are a lot of Christians who are not legalistic. Even if you were brought up in a negative and unfair way, I want to tell you today that you can still believe in Jesus. You don’t have to believe or do things the way your mother or father did, but you can follow Jesus the way he says to follow him. Indeed, it’s never too late for anyone to come to know Jesus, no matter where you are in your life. Anyone can come to know him, from anyplace and at any time. You don’t have to be good to come into relationship with him.
