How to quiet opposition:
Give them chocolate cake.

 

[free2be]

That sounds easy enough.....

ENJOY!!

 

[.Sabre.]

yay thanks! I like cake.

I'm sure that if there is one thing leftists and rightists agree on, it's that cake is fantastic.

Make it cheesecake and I'll have to even sit & think about being quiet & eating.... lol

But... Jesus said it best,
"I did not come for the righteous, but to call sinners to repentance".
He didn't come to join us all together as one big world party - He called us to suffer, to serve, to preach the Word, exhort, rebuke, obey and stand in truth - if need be, even to the death.

Our mission here isn't to just live in peace with everybody and unite in love... contrary to what many Christians today are preaching.
Not that we do not Love... but that we properly define what love is according to God, not man's PC philosophy today.

This verse from Jesus is overlooked by most people today, so I'm going to repeat it from IamRedeemed's post:
"Think not that I am come to send peace on earth: I came not to send peace, but a sword. For I am come to set a man at variance against his father, and the daughter against her mother, and the daughter in law against her mother in law. And a man's foes shall be they of his own household." Matthew 10:34-36

As much as I love the world, I can't be a part of its system and fall into the snares Satan has for me in it.
Yes, I'd love to be loved & accepted by God AND the people who work against Him (and who may profess Him but their works are contrary)- God made us to NEED love and acceptance from others... but not at the high price it will cost me:
MY SOUL.

 

[IamRedeemed]

Amen! The cost of the world's "love" is TOO HIGH!
I'd rather lose the "love" the world has to offer and gain the TRUE love God is offering and the redemption of my soul! Even if means the world will hate me and seek to kill my body.

Amen my sisters amen - these things cannot be spoken enough ! Real love isnt sitting idly by and watching the world get 'loved" into hell. Its giving the water that saves the soul.

Sin is offensive - having to face one is a sinner can be offensive at first sure because the things of the world arent the things of God - and i would offend someone with the truth instead of 'love' them into hell.

Anyone who knows hell is real and lets people believe they are ok without the saving grace of Christ - that their sin is ok with God - is loving them right into eternal death and damnation.

Real love isnt afraid to speak the truth to a friend even when its a hard truth because real love seeks its intendeds greatest good.

2 Corinthians 6:17
Or what agreement has the temple of God with idols?
For we are the temple of the living God; just as God said,
"I WILL DWELL IN THEM AND WALK AMONG THEM;
AND I WILL BE THEIR GOD, AND THEY SHALL BE MY PEOPLE.
17"Therefore, COME OUT FROM THEIR MIDST AND BE SEPARATE," says the Lord.
"AND DO NOT TOUCH WHAT IS UNCLEAN;
And I will welcome you.
18"And I will be a father to you,
And you shall be sons and daughters to Me,"
Says the Lord Almighty.​

2 Corinthians 6:14
14 Do not be bound together with unbelievers;
for what partnership have righteousness and lawlessness,
or what fellowship has light with darkness?
15 Or what harmony has Christ with Belial,
or what has a believer in common with an unbeliever? ​

I truly ask about these verses and how they fit with what God calls of us --
Love... YES. UNITY? NO.
How do we obey God on not fellowshipping with those who claim a God that condones [what we believe thru scripture to be] moral sins?
denying the Bible is inspired by God or not authoratative & is full of man's errors, denying Jesus is God or the Trinity and many more things I find problematic.​

I don't recognize the God many of that group preach. I find it false teaching and I find many to be those we're told to "beware" of.
How am I to find fellowship with this? I'm absolutely stumped on how to mesh these 2 things and still be in obedience with God. Does this fellowship not confuse others as to who we unite with? We reject their teachings, yet sit with them in friendships?
HELP ME WITH THIS.​

I think this should be explored as per God's calling for us. I have no problem sitting with sinners - we all sin... I do however have a deep problem uniting & fellowshipping with those who preach a Jesus that my spirit doesn't recognize or find agreement.​

2 John 1:
9 Anyone who goes too far and does not abide in the teaching of Christ, does not have God; the one who abides in the teaching, he has both the Father and the Son. ​

10 If anyone comes to you and does not bring this teaching, do not receive him into your house, and do not give him a greeting; 11 for the one who gives him a greeting participates in his evil deeds.

LOLOL thanks LT. That was just sheer embarrassing!

I felt like Paul when he preached so long that a man sitting in the window finally dozed off & fell out.
hehe

If for some reason you post and it takes forever and a day to load the post, don't keep re-posting. I've found that whenever we do that, it multiple posts. Don't know if that's what was happening, Nadiine, but thought it couldn't hurt to share!

<3

Hey thanks for the info... I only did that 2 times tho... it just kept posting more! lol (if I don't hit submit 2 times when it takes forever like that, I lose what I posted when it goes to timeout page; refreshing doesn't get it back)

Hey, I thought of you this am. at Sams Club as I went down the aisle & saw the PIZZA ROLLS! hahha
How funny, I was laughing as I went by them. =0)~

 

[PreachersWife2004]

I have that happen at other boards, too. I generally C&P the post and put it into a Word document or a simple text editor. That way, if it doesn't post for some reason, I still have the body of the post, if it's still applicable. But I also leave my computer on all the time, so...

MMmm...pizza rolls. I just spent a day and a half in the hospital and oddly enough, pizza rolls was NOT on the menu. I think I've just found my new cause!

*also wants to know*

 

[PreachersWife2004]

I had to have a cerclage done yesterday morning and being 23 weeks along they wanted to keep me overnight for observation.

Nothing too serious, although I will be on modified bed rest for the rest of my pregnancy. I hate bed rest.

Aww.. Bed rest stinks. So boring! But maybe you can get some good reading in...

 

[PreachersWife2004]

Bed rest isn't that simple around this household! And I mean that in a good, positive way. I just am not the person to sit around and not do anything. I mean, I like my soaps and stuff, but I also like to clean and dust and that kind of stuff. Plus, we are getting ready to host the area reformation service this weekend, and me being on bed rest kinda puts an entire work-load on hubby. But he'll manage.

I'm okay, and the baby is okay...I just need to take it easy so that he doesn't make an early appearance. Science and technology have made some great advancements for preemies, but they're still working out the kinks for how a 22 week old baby might survive. It's happened, but the majority of women who go into labor this early often lose their babies. I'm content with delivering at 30 weeks, but even that is dangerous. My first son was born at 32 weeks, and I'm pretty sure his asthma is a result of that.

I think, though, that I actually had this with my last two pregnancies and it just never got diagnosed. It would explain why I was always having contractions but never going into labor. Weird.
