Thanks Don;

A message for Emile.............

JAMES 3:8: But the tongue can no man tame; it is an unruly evil, full of deadly poison.
9: Therewith bless we God, even the Father; and therewith curse we men, which are made after the similitude of God.
10: Out of the same mouth proceedeth blessing and cursing. My brethren, these things ought not so to be.
11: Doth a fountain send forth at the same place sweet water and bitter?
12: Can the fig tree, my brethren, bear olive berries? either a vine, figs? so can no fountain both yield salt water and fresh.
13: Who is a wise man and endued with knowledge among you? let him shew out of a good conversation his works with meekness of wisdom.
14: But if ye have bitter envying and strife in your hearts, glory not, and lie not against the truth.
15: This wisdom descendeth not from above, but is earthly, sensual, devilish.
16: For where envying and strife is, there is confusion and every evil work.
17: But the wisdom that is from above is first pure, then peaceable, gentle, and easy to be intreated, full of mercy and good fruits, without partiality, and without hypocrisy.
18: And the fruit of righteousness is sown in peace of them that make peace.

My Friend, Martin Luther changed many things about the practice of religion when he discovered "the just shall walk by faith alone"
Your post smacks of religion and works. Read the Pauline doctrine as Paul warns, anyone not following his Gospel shall be accursed! The ones that Christ says He never knew was those that tried to gain Heaven by a "works philosephy."
The simple truth is believe on the shed blood of Christ for forgiveness and He shall indwell thee with the Holy Spirit who shall lead you unto doing the things of Christ out of joy.
From Romans to Philemon the only thing you need to do for Christ is to be a minister, teaching the message of reconciliation between man and God through belief on the Son.
Santiago
PS: Don't let the physical church lead you down the road and teach you to mix Christianity with Judiasm.
We are not a Judeo-Christian heritage. By grace alone are you saved and kept saved.
