41 | Is smoking a sin? | 2 Pet 2:19 | MrsBinGA | 56044 | ||
I, too, smoked for many years, and I didn't even want to quit. I can still see myself sitting on the side of my carport, cigarette in hand, saying "Lord, if you want me to quit You will have to take the desire away from me because I just don't want to." Looking back, which has been 8-9 years, I can't pinpoint the day I stopped smoking. But at some point after saying that "prayer", I just didn't want the cigarettes anymore - and still don't. I can't take any credit for quitting. God "worked in me both to will and to do of His good pleasure" (Phil. 2:13). |

42 | Jahovah's witness | Rev 7:4 | MrsBinGA | 54595 | ||
Hello Christian 7! Having been involved in a Christian ministry that witnesses to Jehovah's Witnesses and Mormons, let me encourage you to know why you believe what you believe. Prof. Walter Martin, the leading authority on cult groups prior to his going Home, said "The average Jehovah's Witness can turn a Christian into a theological pretzel in a matter of minutes!" You will never be able to reach your friend by "arguing" Scripture. Yes, you need to do what I Pet. 3:15 says: "...sanctify the Lord God in your hearts: and be ready always to give an answer to every man that asketh you a reason of the hope that is in you with meekness and fear:" But praying for him is THE number one thing you can do. And be sure to share your testimony with him and tell him what Jesus has done for you and what He continues to do for you daily. Jehovah's Witness have no relationship with the Lord Jesus. And remember, too, their meaning of words are NOT the same as evangelical words. Example: Jesus to them is a created being, the "firstborn of all creation" that Jehovah (the Father) made; hell is only the grave. A couple websites I recommend are: www.watchman.org www.serve.com/larryi/ www.equip.org Be blessed as you share the gospel! Mrs. B in Georgia |
