21 | Hebrew language? | Bible general Archive 3 | strts5 | 192715 | ||
2 Timothy 2:15 (King James Version) Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth. I am definitely the ultra curious type and want to know everything, so I decided it may help to study the Old Testament to know, or at least get a fair understanding of the language (Hebrew). I found a website (hebrew4christians.com), is anyone familiar with it. The reason I ask is because it gets very deep very fast drawing out all kinds of parallels not only of scripture and individual words, but even individual letters. It is very fascinating, however is it accurate? Mike R ps In a post a couple of days ago about evolution it may have sounded like I was siding with evolutionist, I wasn't. I have friends who believe "big bang, evolution, etc organized by God. ie, Intelligent Design". My side , creation. |

22 | Celebrate Recovery | Is 40:31 | strts5 | 192458 | ||
Any thoughts on this program, perhaps someone is familiar with it. I was also told by someone it does not give room to Christ to actually change a persons heart??? You can check for other things I've posted here and am still in the same place, I want to change but don't know how. I've "thrust" myself into church, prayer, being active in the body, but always end up backsliding. I am also fairly versed in the bible and no amount of head knowledge has helped much either. I'm thinking I need to submit myself to a good pastor, shut up, and just do what he asks. Eight Recovery Principles based on the BEATITUDES by Pastor Rick Warren Principle 1 - Realize I'm not God; I admit that I am powerless to control my tendency to do the wrong thing and my life is unmanageable. "Happy are those who know they are spiritually poor" Principle 2 - Earnestly believe that God exists, that I matter to him, and that he has the power to help me recover. "Happy are those who mourn, for they shall be comforted" Principle 3 - Consciously choose to commit all my life and will to Christ's care and control. "Happy are the meek" Principle 4 - Openly examine and confess my faults to God, to myself, and to someone I trust. "Happy are the pure in heart" Principle 5 - Voluntarily submit to every change God wants to make in my life and humbly ask Him to remove my character defects. "Happy are those whose greatest desire is to do what God requires" Principle 6 - Evaluate all my relationships; Offer forgiveness to those who have hurt me and make amends for harm I've done to others except when to do so would harm them or others. "Happy are the merciful" "Happy are the peacemakers" Principle 7 - Reserve a daily time with God for self examination, Bible readings and prayer in order to know God and His will for my life and to gain the power to follow His will. Principle 8 - Yield myself to God to be used to bring this Good News to others, both by my example and by my words. "Happy are those who are persecuted because they do what God requires" |

Hopefully this is not misconstrued, but does anyone know of any threads dealing with some of the teachings of the Word of Faith movement? Just looking for some threads, not a new one... Just searching for truth. Thanks, Mike R |

25 | salved? | Joel 2:32 | strts5 | 182883 | ||
I have popped in and out periodically of this site. Hopefully this isn't to far off topic, not being a "study" question. I grew up in the church but have been a very consistent backslider my whole life. Season hot, season cold, etc... for my whole life and I'm just past the thirty mark and do not wish to continue. I have always been a believer without question, it's settled in my heart. I try to tell myself that God is faithful to finish the work He began, however sometimes use this as an excuse to continue in a sinful behavior. I have heard it all from pastors and other Christians, baptism in the Holy Spirit, pray more, read the bible more do this, do that. I'm tired of screwing up, but I'm so good at it. I am the life of the party! I really do want to serve God. I day dream about it. I even think I'm called to ministry (don't laugh). I have had several people tell me through out my life that I am called, some well known preachers and evangelists from different denominations. I have argued with God about this many times, He always wins! At the same time I have a fear that I will stand before God and say I did this or that and He will say I never knew you. Any thoughts... constructive only please. |
