I Pledge Allegiance to The King: A New Testament Theology of the Christian Life
by Dennis Ingolfsland
"Jesus is not our co-pilot. He is not our spiritual advisor. He is not some kind of genie who exists to grant us our every wish. He is our Creator-King to whom we owe absolute devotion, allegiance and service. "the fundamental disposition or direction of our heart is either "allegiance" to Jesus our King, or allegiance to some idol, whether that idol is some religion, or our money, our things, or even ourselves. "it's not that there is anything wrong with "making a decision for Christ," or "accepting Christ" or "asking Jesus into your heart" as long as you understand that these are just short-hand phrases we use to refer to a heart of repentance and loving devotion to Jesus the King, and are not some magical formulas you recite"

Will the Real Jesus Please Stand Up?
by Dennis Ingolfsland
There was once a TV show called, To Tell the Truth. It was a game show in which a panel of four celebrities was given the name and unusual occupation of one of three contestants. The panel had to ask the contestants questions in an attempt to determine which contestant performed the unusual occupation. At the end of the show the host would ask, Will the real [contestant name] please stand up? Considering all the different views of Jesus presented in books, magazines and movies today, people today might feel like asking, Will the real Jesus please stand up"
