In this episode of Curious for Christ, we delve into Shelby Hohsfield’s transformative faith journey. Shelby shares her powerful story of discovering Jesus and finding spiritual growth after leaving the Mormon church. She emphasizes the importance of pursuing a personal relationship with Jesus over mere institutional affiliation.
Key Points Discussed:
The Importance of Curiosity in Faith: Seek a true understanding of who Jesus is, beyond simply attending church services or following religious traditions.
Salvation vs. Church Membership: Salvation is not about being part of a specific church but about having a genuine relationship with Jesus. Matthew 7:21-23, reminds us that it is about having a relationship with God -we don’t want to hear at the end of our lives, “I never knew you.” Instead, a true relationship with Christ is recognized by the “fruit” it produces (Matthew 7:16). Our actions, character, and qualities like love, patience, and kindness serve as evidence of our transformation through Him.
The Role of Scripture: It is important to read and understand God’s Word through Scripture, which shapes and deepens our faith.
Personal Growth and Transformation: Meeting Jesus is transformative, but spiritual growth is a daily process. Faith is a journey, not a one-time event.
Faith vs. Works: Salvation is a gift from God, not something we can earn through our own efforts. We cannot rely on performance or good works to secure our place in Heaven—our priority must be knowing Jesus personally. However as we are transformed by Christ, this transformation will naturally be reflected in our actions. Our lives will begin to show the fruit of His presence (such as love, kindness, goodness, patience and integrity) - demonstrating the change that comes from truly Knowing Him.
Bible Verses Referenced:
• Acts 17:26-27: “…that they should seek God, and perhaps feel their way toward Him and find Him.”
• 2 Corinthians 3:18: “…being transformed into the same image from one degree of glory to another.”
