Naked Christians: Self-Professing Christians Who Are Not Born Again

By Frederick Mundle

Naked Christians comprises a collection of poems which either warns of the lack of eternal life in the souls of many naked Christians (1) who think they live as the body of Christ but do not, (2) who dare to call themselves Christians but have not as yet been born again, (3) who have been duped by false shepherds into believing that there are many ways to God the Father other than the only way of Jesus Christ, (4) who believe that repentance is just a one-time act if it is even necessary at all in the first place, (5) who may be weakening, if saved at all, while they are being engulfed by deniers of God’s word. Who can sit in a naked church in the midst of naked Christians being instructed by a naked pastor and still hope to be found in the presence of the Lord in the millennium?

Frederick Mundle adds his third book of poetry entitled Naked Christians to his list of Christian publications with Xlibris. He addresses elements within the body of professing Christians which require being called out. His hope is to awaken the naked who do not realize that they walk about without the clothing of Christ. His desire combines the alerting and converting the otherwise spiritually dead to awaken them to eternal life in Christ. Most self-professing Christians do not realize that they parade around spiritually naked, not being clothed with Christ. It is Frederick's hope to through the power of the Holy Spirit in Jesus name to raise the spiritually dead before they actually physically die. There is no eternal life with Christ unless the foregoing occurs.

INTRODUCTION

Naked Christians speaks to a fact that the many sitting in pews, though fully-clothed in the physical sense, are totally naked in the spiritual sense. How might these Christians be naked? Galatians 3:27 says, For all of you who were baptized into Christ have clothed yourselves with Christ. Many professing Christians have not been spiritually awakened by having accepted Christ and, therefore, they cannot have the clothing of Christ upon them. Without the Lord’s spiritual garment upon them they stand naked but believe themselves to be Christians.

Today’s church and many churches leading up to today are no longer preaching the full counsel of God. More specifically, pastors do not preach that one must be born again (John 3:3). Not being born again leaves one naked no matter how many Christians one knows or sits beside in any given church. A Christian must be washed by the blood of Christ (1 John 1:7 -- But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus, his Son, purifies us from all sin.) When a person has been actually washed by the blood of Christ, that person becomes a real Christian and is no longer naked. Naked Christians do not know that they are naked, that is, not clothed by Christ. They may think they are Christian, associate with Christians, attend a Christian church, sit in Bible studies but they have not yet come to believe in Christ. As to how this might be possible, I shall recount the testimony of a minister who graduated from a well-known seminary. He shared that out of all his co-graduates in his given year of graduation that only two or so claimed to be born again. All the rest had gone to that theological institution to qualify for a ministerial career.

There is a very first step to becoming clothed in order to step out of nakedness. That first step is a must, a step which precedes all others. John 3:16 points everyone to this step: For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life. Whereupon a person comes to believe in Jesus, that person has donned the clothing of Christ and is no longer naked. That Scripture speaks to the very essence of what happens when one comes to believe. The moment one comes to believe one actually does become born again. In the same way and at that same moment that the human egg is fertilized whereupon the sperm enters it, you became a living being. Your life began. The absolute same
