Subject: Are we Stupid or Lazy? Our Soul at stak |
Bible Note: Thanks Hank Without a doubt, we are headed in the same direction. Some get to their destination by walking, others run, still others may go by bicycle, car, plane or train. (I want a big BUS, so I can take as many with me as I can. I want them on the fenders, the roof and hood.) Though our means may differ, our goal is the same. When Christian paths collide, maturity in Christ will clear the traffic jam. Having originated this post, I have truly learned a lesson. Although I would never intentionally point a finger at anyone (Mat 7:1 Judge not, that ye be not judged. :2 For with what judgment ye judge, ye shall be judged ,) I often have a hard time conveying the knowledge and messages I have gleaned without stepping on toes and appearing overly authoritative. However, I contend that my authority is the WORD OF GOD. I am not the originator. I am simply a messenger. I will not take from or add to what the originator has sent. And… On top of this thorn, I tend to talk in parables. I once considered these two traits as faults, or thorns. I am no longer sure that they are either. As I quoted somewhere in this thread, I once read, “a parable shows the (spiritual) responsiveness of the hearer.) This saying has helped me greatly. God Bless you and yours George |
