Walked into an office today with not a fan wrist bands and window clings,knowing ahead of time whom was to receive them. The ridicule started immediately....from church goers. It was ignored. The recipients needed only to hear the words,completely committed follower and they knew immediately. One of them lead me to Christ about 2 1/2 years ago. Praise God!!!
This just really hit me hard it's really convicting I'm asking my self am I a fan or a follower. Our youth group is doing the teen version really good.
The only thing we really have to give is our life. Everything we have is literally a gift from God. We live our lives for Christ because it is really the only thing we can give. And He's the one who gave it to us in the first place! It doesn't necessarily mean to give up all you're material possessions. Again what you have is a gift from the Lord! And let's thank Him for out blessings! May the spirit of peace be unto you all :)
@graceymanor Please don't judge all preachers by those who have gone down the wrong path. This guy is genuinely loving God and wanting the same for others and their lives to be changed. Thanks for listening ..
@danajoredhead Thanks for the reply....it wasnt directed at all preachers.... It may jsut be my interpretation but what you say may be true but its not the image he projects
Jesus talked about money more than He did Heaven and Hell combined. Jesus talked about money more than anything else except the Kingdom of God. 11 of 39 parables talk about money. 1 of every 7 verses in the Gospel of Luke talk about money.
@bigbadwolff1 the same? I don't let the world or anybody mess with me - and as for conscience - nice try - it will take more than a self-righteous sanctimonious flamer - to make me feel guilty - scratch the thin veneer of religiosity - and you go ballistic like a wounded cat. Not inspired and cetainly not impressed.
@bigbadwolff1 I know what you said. You copied what i said about your being tortured by the world- your pontifications about my life and personal character are parr for the course in your classic Christian balistic. My not following your insane philosophy of self-crucifixion in the face of the brutal realities which you obviously are not following considering your present diatribe is morally and logically of zero relevance to me..

Yes,
at the time the book of Revelation was written the church was only in Asia.
Jesus wants results not excuses...

A follower would forgive others transgression don't judge , love thats jesus' teachings.

I disagree Jesus preached more about sin and repentance than anything else.
