Are You Successful?
SmartChristian is asking what it means to be successful. He is also wondering if there is a difference between success and significance.
There is no blog-length answer to the questions Andy is asking really. I will however note that Jesus was the most significant human ever to walk the earth. It cannot be argued, we tell time by His birth, western civilization is based on the religion founded in His wake. Some may not like it, but it is a fact.
While He preached to many on occassion He really only had 12 men and a few women who followed Him closely. He was itinerant and rarely had enough money to get past the day. He never built a church. He was crucified.
Draw your own conclusions.
