I Believe In The Bible



When criticized for believing in the Bible, and putting my faith in text which has lasted over 3 millennia sometimes I can be taken aback by the slights and disrespect which can come from those who aren't of a faith based mentality.

We see more and more atheism and counter culture pushing an anti-religion with a vengeful fervor. There is this lack of respect for anything sacred. They blasphemy and speak the and of Jesus, as if it were cussing. Not to mention, the disdain. There is a frightfully abrasive disdain for those who believe that homosexuality is a sin, or who look out for the poor and helpless. More so injuring is the person who claims to be Christian, but does not walk the walk. Much of the rage against those who are seen and called the Christian Right is the attributed to the deceit from those professing to be righteous, but acting in opposition the Jesus' teachings, and The Way.


2 Thessalonians 2: 13-17 NCV
13 Brothers and sisters, whom the Lord loves, God chose you from the beginning 14 God used the Good News that we preached to call you to be saved so you can share in the glory of our Lord Jesus Christ.
15 So, brothers and sisters, stand strong and continue to believe the teachings we gave you in our speaking and in our letter.
16-17 May our Lord Jesus Christ himself and God our Father encourage you and strengthen you in every good thing you do and say. God loved us, and through his grace he gave us a good hope and encouragement that continues forever.

RE: San Bernardino Shooters Confirmed As Islamic Terrorists

This is in response to this Funker530.com article, and the statement made by ZH below. At this point, our president and his team want this anti gun agenda to happen so bad that he's gonna brush this under the rug. This was terrorist attack. I had a hard time sleeping last night because I have a heavy heart. This event was too close to home. Yeah we can pray for the victims but faith without works is dead. We need to take action as well as praying. We want peace, we have to be the first ones to take the steps towards it. War has been waged on American soil. Prepare for what may come. Have a plan with your loved ones in case of a emergency. Get a gun, bat, knife, machete, some type of protection for your household and educate yourselves and your loved ones about your protection. One love fam. - ZH What is terror exactly? And by that definition is the US Government a terrorist organization? At any rate, while discouraging you of thinking all Muslims are barbaric warmon...

More Christian Than You Are: Judging Other Christians

More Christian Than You Are 0 October 29, 2012,   0  Comments Romans 2:1 NASB Therefore you have no excuse, everyone of you who passes judgment, for in that which you judge another, you condemn yourself; for you who judge practice the same things. I'm having a hard time right now with my parents, who say they are Christian, and in a very hurtful way, they will tell me that my heart is not right, or that i'm not living my life right, or that my problems are a result of not living a good Christian life. I go to Church regularly, up until recently, I would go to Church with my Mom, while my Dad was out surfing. I've read the Bible 4 times, and I know (or at least I can tell when a verse from the Bible is being cited, and) when someone is making up something that sounds like it should be in the Bible, but it isn't. My Dad doesn't read the Bible. And so, I am basically at odds with people who are stuck in the 80's mentality of how ...

12 Tribes Means Different Inter-connective Ways To Be Christ-like.

i had a kind of realization today that God works through people. And rather than having monocultures, or having people all act the same, all grasping onto the same way of doing things, the Almighty is at work through many different ways in everyone's life. We have to come to terms with His love in our own time, and in our own way, but there were 12 tribes for a reason, and each disciple was very different in his and her personality, persona and each had a different relationship with Jesus. i think today i realized that we aren't going to fully understand the interconnectivity of it all, until ultimately we get it explained to us in heaven. What can i do with this information? And how much of an epiphany is this anyway. Well, it gives me the power to forgive with an incredible amount of energy because i don't need to figure out what the other person is working on or how God is working within their life. I just need to make sure that I am working with God in my life. I n...
