    Changing The Story

    Contributed by Clair Sauer on Feb 6, 2013
     | 6,195 views

    We have to remember that we love only because Jesus first loved us. And as followers of Jesus Christ, we are to respond to others in the same way God has responded to us. We have to change the story, re-write history, shock people.

    I have noticed in recent years a growing lack of any “shock value” in our society. It’s obvious in movies, TV shows, video games, sports, and even the way we talk. To be a millionaire means very little these days; it’s more impressive to be a billionaire. Video games are no ...read more

    These laws were given so that it would limit vengeance, it was also given to give a judge a guide to go by when he was ruling on a case.

    Matthew 5:38-42-“You have heard that it was said, ‘An eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth.’ But I tell you not to resist an evil person. But whoever slaps you on your right cheek, turn the other to him also. If anyone wants to sue you and take away your tunic, let him have your cloak also. And ...read more

    The Miracle Of Forgiveness

    Contributed by Mark H. Stevens Thd on Jan 4, 2017
    based on 4 ratings
     | 5,956 views

    They say "To err is human and to forgive divine"...a lot of truth in this statement. It really takes the power of The Lord to help us truly forgive one another.

    Mark 2:7-11 (Wey) "Why does this man use such words?" they said; "He is blaspheming. Who can pardon sins but One--that is, God?"... Jesus asked them, "Which is easier?--to say to this paralytic, 'Your sins are pardoned,' or to say, 'Rise, take up your mat, and walk?' But that you may know that the ...read more

    based on 3 ratings
     | 18,169 views

    No where in the bible does it tell us to treat people the way we want to or to get even with those who don't like us. The bible does teach us not to stoop to their level.

    How to Deal with People Who Don’t Like You “Woe to you when all people speak well of you, for that is how their fathers treated the false prophets. But I tell you who hear me: Love your enemies, do good to those who hate you, bless those who curse you, pray for those who mistreat you.” Luke ...read more

    Principles for imprecatory prayers.

    Tuesday of the Seventh Week in Course 2024 We worship today in the still strong light of Pentecost, and we are reminded by St. James “do you suppose it is in vain that the scripture says, ‘[God] yearns jealously over the spirit which he has made to dwell in us’"?

    I am of infinite worth to God. He does not love me “for something”, but for myself alone!

    THE ENEMY OF INFERIORITY Text: Psalms 139: 13-16 Matthew 10: 29-31 Face inferiorities for what they are; enemies! Inferiority feelings are enemies that hinder increativity. We are made by God to be creative and anything that hinders in that creative process is an enemy. ...read more

    Living With The Enemy Series

     | 24,101 views

    Jesus taught us to forgive our enemies... but I’d just as soon not, thank you. Why is it so important for me to forgive people who have worked so hard at being my enemies?

    OPEN: Clarence Darrow, the famed criminal lawyer once joked: "Everyone is a potential murderer. I have not killed anyone - but I frequently get satisfaction out of obituary notices." APPLY: Now, why would we find that humorous? We find it funny because it comes so close to the truth. Of all the ...read more

    Enemies: Don't Deny It, You Do Have Them

    Contributed by Fr Mund Cargill Thompson on Sep 2, 2023
    based on 2 ratings
     | 832 views

    We like to pretend we are far too nice to have enemies. But the bible is realistic. It doesn't try to pretend we don't have enemies. Instead it tells us how God wants us to treat them...

    Who is your enemy? Who is your enemy? You are probably going to reply to me “I don’t have any enemies….” Afterall it hardly seems very nice to have enemies? “Live peaceably with all” said our reading (at least if I cut out the words that came before) Surely if I am a Christian I am not allowed to ...read more
