Bible Note: Hey gang... Here's a nice piece of scripture Dr. Stanley spoke of this morning in his radio message...no I am not flogging Baptist's or any other denomination...I am not promoting anything but what Paul said to young Timothy when Timothy needed some encouragement when he was ministering to a group of Christians in a tough place. Tomorrow is a national day of prayer...perhaps we should all ask the Lord how He wants us to relate to one another in His love.... Here goes... Misleadings in Doctrine and Living 1 Paul, (1) an apostle of (2) Christ Jesus (3) according to the commandment of (4) God our Savior, and of (5) Christ Jesus, who is our (6) hope, 2 To (7) Timothy, (8) my true child in the faith: (9) Grace, mercy and peace from God the Father and (10) Christ Jesus our Lord. 3 As I urged you upon my departure for (11) Macedonia, remain on at (12) Ephesus so that you may instruct certain men not to (13) teach strange doctrines, 4 nor to pay attention to (14) myths and endless (15) genealogies, which give rise to mere (16) speculation rather than (17) furthering the administration of God which is by faith. 5 But the goal of our (18) instruction is love (19) from a pure heart and a (20) good conscience and a sincere (21) faith. 6 For some men, straying from these things, have turned aside to (22) fruitless discussion, 7 (23) wanting to be (24) teachers of the Law, even though they do not understand either what they are saying or the matters about which they make confident assertions. I trust that each of us will follow Paul's instructions that we do not debate silliness, but rather explore endlessly ways to grow in Christ and more importantly how we may cease fruitless conversation and show only love and genuine caring one for another...Searcher you may call it whatever you wish, and don't send me an email about this... Please let us show love, kindness, consideration and support for all brothers and sisters in the Lord...let's give practical advice, using methods that help people internalize what they learn...any of us who have been Christians for years should know this...nothing is more important than dealing with each other with love ...genuine love from the Father. I also trust that I never see a question about hatred of Arab Americans EVER again on this site. Hatred of anyone is disgusting....who does any child of God think they are that they should be allowed to perpetuate or even suggest violence or unkindness towards others of a different faith? Teaching by example always beats out teaching by beating your gums!!! Let's all try to be kind, polite, and good willed towards each other. J |
