Thank you Hank... I also would like to add that in calling myself a freak I take the wind out of their sails. If the best they can do is call me unsavory names than i have a long way to go to being truelly persecuted. I don't wish to be persecuted but Christ said that it is going to happen to those who serve Him. I am blessed to live in the USA for now. I see I time coming soon where this will not always be so. -Jeshuafreak |

That is ok Hank if you don't like it. You don't have to adopt the name. I am however "late harvest", I didn't grow up in the pews of a church. I grew up around drugs, sex, and alcohol, cons and bikers. I grew up striving to be different , before I became a Christian. Now how different I am. I am completely different from the old me. It makes me a freak, one who stands out in stark contrast to the backdrop in which I live. I am different for a good reason now. I have fully "come out of the closet" so to speak, and am not ashamed to tell others I am a Christian. And that makes me weird and freakish to the unregenerate. Let em laugh but I know the truth and the truth has set me free. -Jeshuafreak | ||||||

66 | what to say to those who smoke weed? | Rom 13:3 | Jeshuafreak | 53406 | ||
I am an ex-pot smoker. I quit because I knew in my heart God didn't want me to smoke pot. On another note, if it hadn't been for my pot smoking Christian friends I would not have even considered becoming a Christian. Strange how God works. He causes all things, good and bad, to work together. Well I got convicted in my heart because it had become an idol to me. I couldn't go a day or two without it. I was a slave to marijuana. This was one of many things in my life that had me bound. We should all make application. We all have things that are trying to rise up as high places in our lives. Now I got the same argument with my friends saying they don't see anything wrong with it and that it is not sin. There are many places where this "herb" is not illegal. Would it be ok for me to smoke it then and there? Not for me, because God has spoken to me on this. So even if it became legal in my town I wouldn't be able to smoke it. I do however know from experience that a little puff doesn't make me out of control. I can smoke it without getting wasted. Just as I can have a drink of an alcoholic beverage w/out getting drunk. It all boils down to this . Do I have a personal relationship with the Lord Jesus Christ? Is He speaking to your heart about the areas (the crafty little foxes of compromise) in your life that are robbing you of quality time spent with Jesus. We cannot serve both masters.***** (Matthew 6 23But if your eyes are bad, your whole body will be full of darkness. If then the light within you is darkness, how great is that darkness! 24"No one can serve two masters. Either he will hate the one and love the other, or he will be devoted to the one and despise the other. You cannot serve both God and Money. )**** I know the verse talks about money but alot of the Bible has application to all the areas of our lives. Just as an id ol need not be a physical golden calf we bow down to. An idol can be any of the high places we set up in our lives and those high places we burn incense to. I see incense refering to our time, talent and treasure being wasted upon these vain pursuits. Again anything that rises up above God in our lives becomes an idol. Can you live without that thing, person or experince? You will not surely die. Tear down those high places. (1 Thessalonians 1 8The Lord's message rang out from you not only in Macedonia and Achaia--your faith in God has become known everywhere. Therefore we do not need to say anything about it, 9for they themselves report what kind of reception you gave us. They tell how you turned to God from idols to serve the living and true God, 10and to wait for his Son from heaven, whom he raised from the dead--Jesus, who rescues us from the coming wrath.) |

67 | Luther's 95 Theses | Bible general Archive 1 | Jeshuafreak | 53216 | ||
Recently I have been reading through **Luther's 95 Theses (1517)*** I will print that here for all to see. I am not a scholar but I can see where Luther got into some hot water with the Roman Catholic Church......ANY COMMENTS ON THIS OR OTHER MOMENTS IN CHRISTIAN HISTORY WOULD BE HELPFUL. SO MANY BOOKS SO LITTLE TIME....Thank you and bless you. -Jeshuafreak*****http://www.carm.org/creeds/95theses.htm**** SORRY DOEN"T FIT HERE go to URL |

68 | Is denominatalism a sin? | NT general Archive 1 | Jeshuafreak | 53175 | ||
haha Good one you crack me up, Hank. Yes, this is true. There are many styles but only one truth. -Jeshuafreak |

69 | Is denominatalism a sin? | NT general Archive 1 | Jeshuafreak | 53135 | ||
Does this mean we should all worship the same?.... no I don't believe so. There are many stlyes but only one truth. We need to get back to basics. Agree on the essentials. 1 Corinthians 1 Divisions in the Church 10I appeal to you, brothers, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that all of you agree with one another so that there may be no divisions among you and that you may be perfectly united in mind and thought. 11My brothers, some from Chloe's household have informed me that there are quarrels among you. 12What I mean is this: One of you says, "I follow Paul"; another, "I follow Apollos"; another, "I follow Cephas[1] "; still another, "I follow Christ." 13Is Christ divided? Was Paul crucified for you? Were you baptized into[2] the name of Paul? 14I am thankful that I did not baptize any of you except Crispus and Gaius, 15so no one can say that you were baptized into my name. 16(Yes, I also baptized the household of Stephanas; beyond that, I don't remember if I baptized anyone else.) ****** The Apostles' Creed I believe in God, the Father Almighty, the Creator of heaven and earth, and in Jesus Christ, His only Son, our Lord: Who was conceived of the Holy Spirit, born of the Virgin Mary, suffered under Pontius Pilate, was crucified, died, and was buried. He descended into hell. [see Calvin] The third day He arose again from the dead. He ascended into heaven and sits at the right hand of God the Father Almighty, whence He shall come to judge the living and the dead. I believe in the Holy Spirit, the holy *catholic church, the communion of saints, the forgiveness of sins, the resurrection of the body, and life everlasting. Amen. |

71 | is gambling a sin yes or no and why | Bible general Archive 1 | Jeshuafreak | 53103 | ||
I could not agree with you more gambling is indeed a sin. As is playing the lottery, it is sin also because it is not good stewardship of the finances that the Lord has placed in our provision. -Jeshuafreak |

Joe- Thanks again, buddy. I appreciate your advice. There is just so much out there. Kindly disregard other posting as it was dealt with over the course of these past ones. The site had some strange comments to be sure. I guess it all comes down to trusting the Holy Spirit to illuminate the scripture for us. -Jeshuafreak |

73 | Hi Joe!! | Proverbs | Jeshuafreak | 53052 | ||
Hi Joe!!- By the way I did some more research on that site **http://withchrist.org/center.htm*** WithChrist .ORG-- They check out as far as I am concerned. They agree with my philosophy as far as being a good Berean. This is what they wrote in their About Us section.*** Thank you for your interest. Similar to the Apostle Paul, we are employed full-time as well as joyfully serve in this ministry designed to provide spiritual growth to members of His Body. The heart of our modest ministry is personal email correspondence with believers who are hungry to grow in their spiritual life and service. We seek to guide believers into study that is suited to their unique situations, seeing that they become "established in grace" and on their own with the Lord as soon as possible (2 Peter 3:18). Our goal is to stay quietly in touch with the Lord, being prepared by Him to share with those who reach out in need. Thus each learns to depend upon Him, and never us. Consequently, our expectation is for correspondents to eagerly study the Word of God (66 books of the Bible) as well as recommended Christian literature--understanding that the goal is to anchor in truth and more fully know the Lord Jesus Christ. While our ministry does include observations both sociological and psychological, our primary focus is theological and doctrinal truth. We view Scripture within a moderate Calvinistic, Pauline dispensational framework. Our material is not presented from the viewpoint of scholars, but rather that of folks who enjoy passionate thinking. We believe that the content of a person's beliefs, over time, affect all realms of life--or, "ideas have consequences." "For as he thinks in his heart [mind], so is he" Proverbs 23:7. ****** JOE!! please let me know if you find anything heretical about them that I overlooked...I was a little surprised with some of there comments on Religious Humanism. Which I didn't know about before. I found at another site an article on this very thing.... The more I dig into this stuff the more I see how little informed I have been. Am I in a safe church...hmm. That is my big question lately. I am not going to leave my fellowship I believe there are a large number of true Christians there. I want to help the flock by bringing truth to them and testing what I hear. I don't want to abandon them like a sinking ship. I know enough truth to recognize the counterfeit. Though I am still learning and always will be. -Jeshuafreak |

76 | When does caressing go too far ? | 2 Corinthians | Jeshuafreak | 52983 | ||
You are right. I get cocky sometimes when all is well and I am not being tempted. I set myself up alot of times for a fall when I say, "Oh, I can hadle it." Proverbs says, 'What man can scoop hot coals into his lap and not get burnt?' I don't know the adress but I have heard this a few times...... Let me try to find it... I guess I paraphased it. It applies though. That is the nice thing about God's word. The Holy Spirit makes application. ****Proverbs 6 27Can a man take fire to his bosom, And his clothes not be burned? 28Can one walk on hot coals, And his feet not be seared? 29So is he who goes in to his neighbor's wife; Whoever touches her shall not be innocent. |
