I really appreciate you brother. I know that I don't have to justify myself -- fact is: I can't. Thanks be to Jesus!!

I'd just like to encourage Emile to good works. He has a lot of good Bible knowledge and he is very sincere. He has also from time-to-time expressed compassion for his brothers.

Of course we all must examine ourselves and reprove on another from time to time. It is just a little disheartening to me that Emile always seems to be looking for evil in those that already confess Jesus is Lord and are also sincerely trying to obey Him.

If you're reading this Emile -- how bout a truce. Let's encourage each other on what we are agreed on. Where we differ, let's discuss without condemning.

Been thinking a little bit more about the passage from first Peter as I've been reading it in the mornings. I really like the order there

1)Fix your hope completely on the grace that will brought to you at the revelation of Jesus Christ.

And after this

2)Be holy in all your behavior.

No possible way to do #2 if you haven't done #1.

Let us fix our hope (1 Peter 1) and fix our eyes (Hebrews 12) ON JESUS.

If we are looking at things right (according to Jesus) our whole body will be full of light. Others will not be able to help but be benefitted.

God Bless You Today, Shalom
with an ever keener sense of His Wonderful Presence
