Sobre IBD

It would be very strange to see a butterfly living its life like a caterpillar, never trusting its wings to carry it and never embracing its new identity. It would be a denial of all that defines its existence. It occurred to me some time ago that I had spent a significant part of my life making statements about faith, but not actually living my life as if they were true. That’s why I gave this book the title ‘As If’ – because I wondered how different my life would look if I lived as if everything I claimed to believe about God, was actually true. Was I a butterfly who was living like a caterpillar? So I decided to wipe the slate clean and rewrote my faith statement. I decided that no Christian cliché or well-used Christian catch phrase would pass my lips unless I really believed it and was ready to live as if it was true and stake my life on it. The biggest ‘As If’ of all has been that I have decided to live as if I am the focus of the greatest love in the universe – that I am the object of God’s unsearchable and extravagant love. I have found that the greatest battle I wage is against myself as I try to be true to the life of Christ that lives in me. So that’s what I’ve decided to do, to look Jesus in the eye and live my life as if His love for me is enough to carry me through everything. It’s simple really. So simple that anyone can do it, and I don’t know how I could have missed it for so long.

  • Back In The Garden Again
    Graeme Schultz
    The true gospel message has little to say about what we do, and much to say about what Christ did, and who we are as a result. This gospel is not found in the busy activities of religion, it is more akin to a pilgrimage to the cross, you just go there and ask God to show you what it was all about. And then you go back, time and time again, all by yourself, and gradually the mag...

  • To Be Christian

God’s wildest dream and my wildest dream coincided on the cross of Jesus. The ancient longing within me to be loved without any strings attached, and the ancient truth a...

  • Can you see it?
    Graeme Schultz
    Have you ever wondered what’s on the other side? Most of us are so preoccupied with life in the here and now that we hardly stop to think about what eternity is actually like. It is, after all, a long way off for most of us—so we think we can give it some thought when it looms a little larger.However, the Bible speaks of eternity as “present tense,” i.e. we are in it now. John ...

  • Adam's Blunder
    Graeme Schultz
    Adam handed to us a broken version of God’s original design of humankind; our spirit and soul were now two completely individual and unrelated parts. Adam’s actions starved our spirit of the freely given nourishment that comes from the heart of God, and he set our soul a task it wasn’t designed for – to generate self-worth from our management of good and evil. The work Jesus ac...

  • The Surpassing Greatness Of Christ
    Graeme Schultz
    My intention in writing this book has been to ‘express the in-expressible’, the most astonishing spectacle ever presented to humanity – the surpassing greatness of Christ. Christianity is not primarily about the programs, activities and causes of church life, it is about the union that Jesus re-built between us and God. I spent the better part of my life deeply involved in the ...
