THE 60% CHRISTIAN
David Abankwah
READ: 1 Corinthians 13:12
And other fell on good ground, and did yield fruit that sprang up and increased; and brought forth, some thirty, and some SIXTY, and some an hundred.
-Mark 4:8 | NMV
It is the template of Christianity that the kingdom of darkness has adopted. As Christianity is in levels, the kingdom of darkness is also in levels. For instance in occultism, there are ranks. The sacrifice you make and how well you have grown in the spirit determines the rank or level you will find yourself. You can’t come into occultism today and expect to be in the 999 realm. Also in physical terms, when a child is born, he can’t receive solid foods because his digestive system is not grown enough to process such food. To give solid food to a child will be chaotic. Jesus Christ taught us about the parable of the sower to demonstrate the various stages of Christianity from 30%, 60% to 100%.
The parable of the sower is so deep that, it goes just beyond the sowing of seeds. To grow from 30% Christian to 60% requires work. As Paul’s puts it that, we should work out our salvation with fear and trembling, Christianity is a work of growth. The work is soaking in the Word of God and practising it as such. As the body of a child eats and grow physically thereby, the soul too needs to feed on the Word of God to grow in spirit. The Preacher also entreats us in Ecclesiastes 12:1 to remember our Creator in the days of our youth before the evil days come. Actually 60% Christianity is a period of youth. 1. In spiritual terms, when someone becomes a youth (60% Christian), he sees himself as a matured person.
2. He also sees himself as someone whom God has called into ministry which may not be the case. 3. 60% Christians often struggle with the lust of the eyes because it is where Satan opens their eyes to things that are beautiful. 4. 60% Christians struggle with lust of the flesh because it is where Satan controls their flesh into sexual immoral acts. 5. 60% Christians struggle with pride of life because it is where Satan makes them realise they need to have money, fame, and pleasures in the church or ministry they find themselves. 6. 60% Christians are readily disposed to the possession of evil spirits which they normally think it is God who is using them. 7. 60% Christians often struggle to overcome sin. 8. It is in 60% Christianity that God calls a person into ministry.
9. It is in 60% Christianity that God gives spiritual gifts to believers. 10. God reveals Himself to 60% Christians in parables and not plainly. 11. A 60% Christian often grieves the Holy Spirit. 13. A 60% Christian quenches the Holy Spirit often 14. A 60% Christian does not understand the Word of God as it is, spiritually. 15. A 60% Christian is often readily disposed to fear, panic, pride, doubts, and double mindedness. 16. A 60% Christian also has the Holy Spirit living with him and not in him. 17. A 60% Christian has not yet been sanctified by the blood of Jesus Christ from all sins. 18. The punishment of a 60% Christian comes when it is past a year.

Lift up prayers for the humility not to deem yourself as a matured person in the Lord so you can learn more and grow in the Lord in the name of Jesus Christ.
Quote
The holy place of the tabernacle, was the shadow of the 60% Christianity which was to come.
