><>....Skipper...Let you conscience be your guide...
Most of us here are truly sincere in ou rwritings...we want all to be able to speak their mind...There is just no purpose to arguing on any one point...I cannot be moved from my Lord Jesus and His work on the cross...He was sent by God to die for the sins of the world...and all who believe on Him will have eternal life....That is God's promise to the..." World"...and I believe it....
I certainly do not attempt to insist that everyone believe that......For God knows that is impossible and invasive....We all have a mind of our own.....and must make our own choices...I have made mine..
It is only my duty as a disciple of Christ that I bring the "good news" to all That God sends....What a person does with that information is entirely up to the individual....I plant the seed and God does the watering....It is as simple as that...The seed is the word of God...
And if the person does not receive me with the peace of God...we were told what to do..
Matt 10:14-16
14 And whosoever shall not receive you, nor hear your words, when ye depart out of that house or city, shake off the dust of your feet.
15 Verily I say unto you, It shall be more tolerable for the land of Sodom and Gomorrha in the day of judgment, than for that city.
16 Behold, I send you forth as sheep in the midst of wolves: be ye therefore wise as serpents, and harmless as doves.
(KJV)
And He gave even a more stern warning....which applies to some people of the world...Those who hate God and His teachings and would curse and mock His Son, My lord Jesus the Christ....
Matt 7:6
6 Give not that which is holy unto the dogs, neither cast ye your pearls before swine, lest they trample them under their feet, and turn again and rend you.
(KJV)
Skipper I do not harbor, nor do most of the others,I think it is safe to say, any bad will to you or anyone else.....All I want to do is the will of my Father God.....
Civility and understanding is all we want....but we will settle for civility.....Let all of our communications be blessed and may all of us learn something from the other.....
Matt 22:36-39
36 Master, which is the great commandment in the law?
37 Jesus said unto him, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind.
38 This is the first and great commandment.
39 And the second is like unto it, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.
(KJV)
This is what I live by....
Sincerely,
Shalom...><> |
