If we are truly champions of the cross, we probably live a very simple and poor life. Yet, how many Christians signed with the cross are living such simple lives? How many churchgoers are materialists and militarists without even blushing? This is where the difference between the name and the reality leaps out at us. “It is not those who say, ‘Lord, Lord’ . . . but those who do the will of God” (Matt. 7:21).
