After years and years of rebellion and self-inflicted heartache, I finally learned the huge lesson, that in order to really follow God, we must OBEY him. John 14 says three different times in slightly different ways that if you love the Lord, you will OBEY him. I had never heard it put that bluntly and I bet most people today living in America or the west who call themselves Christians can say the same thing. They never heard that. Jesus spoke in revelations 1,2 and 3 to John in the first part of his vision in letters to seven churches. I highly suggest everyone go read them. This is the true Jesus. This is what he spoke, what he taught. He was not a sissy. He does not overlook sin. He hates it. And anyone who walks in sin while pretending that they are Christians and followers of Christ are deceiving themselves, like I did, and are heading to hell. If I had not repented when I did, I would have gone to hell. I was given as choice after that. I ...
Cancel culture is a hot topic right now. I had to explain what it was to my 64 year old husband who is a minister and is completely out of the loop. As he should be. I have to tell you that I get more pushback from people who call themselves Christians than from anyone else. I get canceled by CHRISTIANS. and this has been the state of things for a long time. It’s only getting worse. I was rescued by Jesus from mysticism and new age and because of that I can see how much Of it and worldliness has infiltrated the church. When I see Christians recommending books with magic in them, or Christians taking about yoga classes or astrology or numerology or word of faith or psychology or any other number of things they shouldn’t be into that have occult roots, I get shouted down for “not being tolerant enough.” If I tell them they shouldn’t be sleeping around or into porn or consumed with constant entertainment of this world which is mostly ...
Just because something makes you happy doesn’t mean it’s necessarily good for you. Take Twinkies. Twinkies are high in sugar and fat. They’re also full of chemicals to extend their shelf life. Twinkies are obviously not good for you. Yet some people eat them. And In moderation a Twinkie or two won’t kill you. Not in the long run anyway. But what might happen if you start craving Twinkies? What might happen if you start buying them in larger quantities? If you start eating one every day? What if you start to crave them more snd more until you begin eating them after each meal? What if you started eating them AS your meal and eventually never ate anything else? You know what would happen. You would get sick snd fat. Eventually you would become malnourished. You might even go to a doctor who would tell you to stop eating Twinkies and eat some vegetables for heavens sake! But if you refuse and keep going down that path you will wind up dead. This isn’t ...
