Over the past month or so, God has helped me understand the importance of living by faith in Him alone for righteousness.
Nothing I could ever do could make me righteous. Being morally sound won't save me either. Nor even going to church or reading the bible, although He talks to me through...
These came from two christians who know what they're talking about.
:thumbsup::thumbsup::thumbsup::thumbsup:
Maybe I really don't need to discuss my issues with people, afterall.
Christians act like they don't want to hear it and some get judgemental.
Non-christians just don't have anything worthwhile or helpful (let alone, godly) to say. There's no life in their words.
So maybe whenever I...
There's only two people in this forum that I can say in all honesty that they are my sisters in Christ. And neither one utters any insults or negative words. They speak life and love in their posts.
Everyone else....I dunno. :shrugs:
You know what I find so extremely hypocritical? We (christians) quote the bible all the time and live by "Love God and your neighbor as yourself", yet have put down names for people we don't like and insult one another. I think most of us have some deep rooted heart issues that no one knows...
Sometimes it gets tiring reading some of the posts in the Spirit Filled/Charismatic forum.
Alot of arguing and debating, but not much inspiration or encouragement, for that matter..... :doh1:
All I remember is being in a room and seen through the miniblinds that it was really dark outside when it was supposed to be daylight. So I looked through those blinds and seen a man and two children. He was telling the child to do something and the other child was off in the distance doing...
I guess, in the eyes of some here, I'm just a judgemental holier-than-thou person who worries about people too much. Rather than be true to my conscience, its better to compromise and give the people what they want.......all for the sake of reach the lost. :|
Funny stuff.
^_^.....I think?
My heart's desire is to walk with Jesus.
I must decrease so that He may increase in me. For too long now, I've gotten in the way and messed things up and am tired of it. No more of that.
I'm willing and wanting to change some things about me so that Jesus and I can walk together. I made...
I understand now that the victory is only in Jesus Christ, not by myself. That scripture that says that "I can do all things through Christ Jesus, who strengthens me" is so very true.
There comes a point in your life when you've had enough. All the struggling and pain and grudges and drama...
From what I've read in CF, doctrinal dogma causes strife. Many are strong in the knowledge of it and will hotly debate over it.
However, we are told in 2 Timothy 2:1 to be strong in God's GRACE that is in Christ Jesus.
Don't get me wrong, knowledge is good. But grace is better. :thumbsup:
:eek:
Whenever there's a debate about religion and morality, minorities somehow end up being used as examples. And for what? So people can get their point across to others of how imperfect and fallicious man can be? OR......so they can show others just how "humble" they are in having no...
I've read some very interesting posts in different forums today. Some were encouraging and some were just .....amazing (not in a good way, either).
I pray that God keep me and my brothers and sisters and lead us into all the truth, through the Holy Spirit. May we grow in His grace and live His...
You know, I would love to travel to South Korea, Bejing and/or Shanghai, and Tokyo for a couple of weeks.
I've always wanted to go to these places for so many years now but never have had the opportunity to do so. But one of these days, if God permits it, I will go, chill out and just enjoy...
Ok, I know people mean well but I find it a bit annoying when they tell me I'm sweet or thoughtful when it comes to showing love for others.
I'm not trying to be sweet or thoughtful! I'm trying to be obediante to God, since He is love. And He said that those who love are known by Him. And...
