Dearest Pastor Skip, thank you for teaching God's word truthfully. This teaching was and is exactly what I needed to hear. It soaked up all the evil that had taken root in my heart and our faithful loving God replaced the evil with understanding and with understanding came joy and love for my Father and Saviour. God bless you brother, teacher, pastor. I love you. Candy Tuck
I understand realy early in life from my pastor my dad that questioning god in those ways is human nature, but he also told me that any questions that put our faith in dought can cause one to fall. We are all justified threw faith,just on logic questioning god can come from a place of dought which is almost the opposite of faith. Jesus took mans sin up on himself so that sin can no longer claim our souls the souls that have been redeemed threw FAITH. The whole point that jesus had to save us was because we couldn't save ourselves. Man simply could not redeem himself with the law, because man had to complete all the law or he would not be justified, so with the proof that man is too flawed in his carnal fletch a perfect sacrafice was needed to do what man could not do for himself and jesus had to be that redeemer so that our flaws, our sins can not keep us from the kingdom of god. Now the evidence of all this should be manifested in us not PRACTICING sin, according to the scriptures those who PRACTICE sin does not know god and god is not in him. We are all sinners were going to offend god, but we have our lawyer jesus who says to the father i died for that sin. But again if you are a practicing cheater,murderer or any other vile sin behavior you are lost. Full stop! But anyway suffering is the method in which god the father is glorified in our victory over what is ailing us.
Don’t be surprised by suffering. It’s common. When we suffer we think this should not happen. This is the same reason people reject God. This backs the Christian into a corner. When you ask why there is evil, you do so because you believe there is a perfect good standard by which to measure evil. The importance of the fiery trial … the rein of terror against the early Christians in Rome. Rejoice that you partake in Christ’s suffering for the spirit of His glory. We have no right to expect better treatment than Jesus received in this world. If you suffer for the right reason. Evil exists. Allowed by God in control. God has a purpose. He is glorified when I suffer and He is helpful. These trials come and are refined by fire. Suffering humbles you. It will purify you and keeps you dependent on God. I will rejoice in my suffering. Gods power kicks in when we are weak. The person who admits he needs help will be powerful. Suffer for being a Christian. Judgement comes first to the church. The gate is narrow and the path difficult and we must pass through many tribulations. Let those who suffer according to the Will of God and they should commit their trust in God, and continue to do good. Suffering is not academic, it is real. Jesus said ‘I must work the works of him who sent me… ‘ Let the world see acts of God. Love the least of these.
I feel as in debates there needs to be some common ground to argue over. But what can you argue with someone who doesn't believe a word your saying even if what you're saying can be factual backed by evidence.
Actually, atheists are asked to speak for these events. There aren't "bad people." Good and bad exists outside of God and Christianity. (There are good people that does good things that are Atheist, Muslim, Hindu, etc) Let's focus on what you believe in and not politicize and demean other beliefs?
Faith works through love.The gate is narrow.The way is hard. Every believer eagers to leave the earthly home to the heavenly one. Love bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things. Love never ends.
"Don't" Revelation 2:22 So I will cast her on a bed of suffering, and I will make those who commit adultery with her suffer intensely, unless they repent of her ways. Do👍 Revelation 22:2 The Tree of Life ...down the middle of the great street of the city. On each side of the river stood the tree of life, bearing twelve crops of fruit, yielding it's fruit every month. And the leaves of the tree are for the healing of the nations.
