When I was a younger man working in a time that no longer exists but even back then when you had coworkers that were non believers they still gave you some respect. But in today's world that line of separation is more like a battle line of two separate enemies.
I remember when they would keep their opinions to themselves and wait till they gathered at the bars to discuss it. Today, they stand just outside the door that separates you from them and they have no issues speaking loud about their disgust because of beliefs.
I remember when a Christian was in their own category but today they are grouped with homosexuals and other disgusting filth.
I remember when you disagreed, went home, regathered and did your job. Today, you mention Jesus and the threat of harassment is brought up.
We live in a day and time where loving your neighbor and those who despise you seem more difficult than ever. Now it's more like as soon as you cool off from the ignorance you finally settle down and say to God I forgive them. But you are well aware that tomorrow will be the same struggle again.
I truly am thankful for the Lord's Prayer that He taught us because it has a portion about forgiveness to those who sin against you. I say that prayer every night. And every night I understand what it is to be a follower of God. God is so good. This struggle is temporary. And one day soon I won't have to face what I have had to overcome anymore. That day can't come fast enough. But I know it's on the way
I trust for you to willingly read through this response for you to be able to rest in adversities of others
The desire(s) in our flesh nature
To be accepted, loved and cared for
Whenever, the above is not met in our flesh natures (first birth)
Sin, evil lies at our door
This began with Cain and Abel, whom killed Abel
God warned Cain what was going on, and sin took control and excuse'asZZs began, no accountability
God told Cain, you can always try over again, you do not have to let not being accepted to have control over you
my take on what God told Cain
actual verses
Genesis 4:7
If thou doest well, shalt thou not be accepted? and if thou doest not well, sin lieth at the door. And unto thee
shall behis desire, and thou shalt rule over him.
Well, I did well didn't I? Or will I? Can I accept rejection and from who? How many other people? God Father is the only one that tells truth, go to God and trust to hear truth over error(s) we all have gotten into or get into too. God is no more here in flesh tha tis done what needed to get done, now is done, 2 Cor 5:16
I mean I know I try to do right and others do not see it as that, why am I getting upset over others making fun of me?
" I see this" Beat me, hurt me, make me a believer in the risen Son.
And another one is "threaten me with a good time" thank you "I" resemble those remarks, love you
Is it because I want to be accepted, loved and cared for, that I get upset, in thought I am not good enough and want to be? I bet that is true with all, at least is for me too Brother (Religion does that in people)
Now see this:
God loves us all, yes even those in unbelief too. Otherwise that cross would not have ever taken place, to me anyways.
Loves us all, and yet we the people do not do that do we? none of me anyways, anyone that is free of sin, whomever has gotten perfect at obeying God, anyone? Then we can punish anyone we choose knowing all truth and righteousness to be God in God's place, anyone?
Is that not what religion teaches us to be righteous of ourselves and be in pride as if we are better than others, especially those that Do not believe God yet Or are in our place of worship?
That is truth in what is happening today. people are really tired of being beaten up and told they better or else attitudes from religions, For God is going to get them unless they straighten up, really???
When God says to all that believe God, God will do the straightening out
Romans 14:4
Who art thou that judgest another man’s servant? to his own master he standeth or falleth. Yea, he shall be holden up: for God is able to make him stand.
Romans 9:11
(for
the children being not yet born, neither having done any good or evil, that the purpose of God according toelection might stand, not of works, but of him that calleth
And my Father of the risen Son Jesus has called all to choose to believe God or not as loving us all or not Truth or error, not Truth or dare anymore
Now we each get to decide to love as God loved us first on that cross by Son for us all
Hebrews 10:10
By the which will we are sanctified through the offering of the body of Jesus Christ once
for all.
No one left out in the ALL is there?
one day every knee shall bow. so let it be, as others think and say and or do. see from Daddy, PaPa, Father's view, what to do, when to leave and when to stay as the same Holy Spirit (Father) led Jesus as he saw all the filth also, and put up with it, did not join in or condemn anyone either. (The religious leaders did that to themselves and everyone else) Jesus, obeyed perfectly for us to be new in his risen Life to get given us from Daddy, PaPa, Father the entire time here on earth to reconcile us all first. The death was reconciliation for all, as if no one ever sinned. Jesus took it all upon himself, so we all can be saved in his resurrected life to love all in truth.
That is not happening is it? Okay anyone can believe as they want to believe, anyone!
Yet no one has to live like refugees do we? I see no way, Father, daddy, PaPa, love me and all others as well, unconditionally. People add the conditions, which brings about doubt. and even a modicum of doubt, stops people from getting established in the true love of God for us all
And so we have wars and rumors of wars over I am right, you are wrong thus no unity in love to all.
If you or I or anyone else only love those that love them back, tell me what good is that? Do not the Unbeliever's do the same? How are we different, =if we do the same as Heathens?
Wow, woe is me, how can I get others to love and accept me? How can you Father do that, unless I or you take away others free will, I do not see how can I love all, unless their free will to choose gets taken away from them?
Now see God did go to that cross for us all to get us all reconciled first. Then new life gets given in the risen Son for us to walk new in love to all, not of us doing it, rather God's love through us in risen Son given us, thanks
Tell them you love them and thank you for berating you, evil does not know how to respond to love, true love of 1 Cor 13:4-7 imputed inn us
Inn, Motel Father and Son won
I got a bank on Christ card, blows me away. I can now, act my wage and not my thought(s) anymore
