    Admonishment...easier to give than to receive

    A good topic to post. I think we should first define admonish. I believe it as lovingly taking someone aside in private and have a conversation of what might have been done wrongly. I think we should not stand up in front of a group to reprimand someone we think is wrong, that is not the way...

    Submit Yourselves Then To God ( James 4 )

    Resist The Devil And He Will Flee From You, Scripture encourages us so often to submit ourselves to God, It means a total surrender to His will. Is that easy for us to do, of course it's not. We see it written over and over again and yet it is so hard to do. It isn't something that our...

    Love Surpasses All Knowledge ( Eph.3 )

    How Deep Is The Love Of Christ, Paul is pretty bluntly stating that love is more important knowledge. Naturally we need to first learn about God and then begin to know Him personally and not simply learning about Him. It is easy to keep learning about Him because that is written. Many stay...

    Come To Me All Who Are Weary ( Matt.11 )

    He invites us to come to Him in all that we need. It is for us to abandon our ego, our own will and come to Him as an empty vessel to be filled with His love. Take my yoke upon you and learn for I am gentle of heart and you will find rest for your souls. It is time to awaken and leave all of...

    You Will Show Me The Path Of Life ( Psalm:16 )

    What a precious way to express joy in loving our Lord. The psalmist is illustrating all the beautiful ways he is loving God. It is glorious just to sit by God and sense His beautiful love for us. It is forming a bond of life in this present world but also for the eternal world. It is not...

    For God Did Not Send His Son Into The World To Condemn The World ( John:3 )

    But To Save The World Through Him, Before Jesus there was no means of salvation, no life eternal nor any born again. The mission of Jesus was to reveal the Father to the world. Jesus told the people that whatever saw in Him, they saw in the Father. The most important mission was for Him to...

    Christian Chat Reviews

    I don't go to this site's chat nor any other chat. I've given them up a long time ago because of too much rancour, misinformation and straight unedifying.

    Follow God's Example As Dearly Loved Children ( Eph.5 )

    Walk In The Way Of Love He Gave Himself Up For Us As A Fragrant Offering To God, We are being taught to give up everything that we are in the flesh and turn to the Lord instead. A fragrant offering to Him, implies to me that we don't only give Him our worst but our best as well. Or in other...

    If There Is No Resurrection Of The Dead ( 1Cor.15 )

    Then Not Even Christ Has Been Raised, We need to trust and believe and have faith in God and believe what is in scripture.

    Oh God You Are My God Whom I Seek ( Psalm:63 )

    My Soul Is Thirsting For You Oh Lord My God, God is leading us to a place that is beyond knowledge, beyond wisdom, beyond Intellectualization. It is the the deep inner experience that comes to us when we are prepared for it. It is that place in our hearts where we connect intimately with God...

    For The Kingdom Of God Is Not A Matter Of Eating And Drinking ( Romans:14 )

    But Of Righteousness Peace And Joy And The Holy Spirit, Paul is talking about the weak and the strong and the strong should be helping to edify the weak. So the topic of what we should eat or drink comes up and it is said that what we do, we do for God. If we eat meat then so be it but do in...

    Let All Things Be Done Decently And In Order,

    Paul is talking to us about church decorum and what decent conduct should be. Although the church is a much different entity than it once was, it should still breathe unity rather than dysfunction, It seems as if there was a lot of disorder and a large variety of who is right or wrong...
