Personal profile for user screen name: gizmo I am a 29 year old wife and mother of 3. I have been in several different churches with different beliefs. I feel some things we have questions about won't be answered till we go to Heaven. My mom use to always say that when we are finally in front of Christ He will say "Well, you were ALL wrong, but at least you tried." If we focus on the issues that won't get us and others into Heaven, we have missed the point. Please, love one another, even the non Christians, as Christ loved us and warmly welcomed us. On the other hand, if you are Chritian, act as thouh you have the chance of losing your salvation. It may accually make you strive for a closer relationship with Christ and help you be more aware of your actions and behavior in public and at home. Here is a poem we all need to read:Satan called a worldwide convention. In his opening address to his evil/dark angels, he said… “We can’t keep the Christians from going to church. We can’t keep them from reading their Bibles and knowing the truth. We can’t even keep them from forming an intimate, abiding relationship experience in Christ. If they gain that connection with Jesus, our power over them is broken. So, let them go to their Churches. Let them have their conservative lifestyles, but steal their time, so they can’t gain that relationship with Jesus Christ. This is what I want you to do, angels. Distract them from gaining hold of their Savior and maintaining that vital connection throughout their day!” “How shall we do this?” shouted his angels. “Keep them busy in the nonessentials of life and invent innumerable schemes to occupy their minds,” he answered. “Tempt them to spend, spend, spend and borrow, borrow, borrow. Persuade the wives to go to work for long hours and the husbands to work 6-7 days a week, 10-12 hours a day, so they can afford their empty lifestyles. Keep them from spending tome with their children. As their family fragments, soon, their home will offer no escape from the pleasures of work!” “Over stimulate their minds so that they can not hear that still, small voice. Entice them to play the radio or cassette player whenever they drive. To keep the TV, VCR, CDs and their PCs going constantly in their homes. And, see to it that every store and restaurant in the world plays non-biblical music constantly. This will jam their minds and break that union with Christ. “Fill the coffee table with magazines and newspapers. Pound their minds with the news 24 hours a day. Invade their driving moments with billboards. Flood their mailboxes with junk mail, mail order catalogues, sweepstakes, and every kind of newsletter and promotional offering, free products, services, and false hopes.” “Keep skinny, beautiful models on the magazines so that husbands will believe that external beauty is what’s important and they’ll become dissatisfied with their wives. Ha! That will fragment those families quickly!” “Even in their recreation, let them be excessive. Have them return from their recreation exhausted, disquieted, and unprepared for the coming week. Don’t let them go in nature and reflect on God’s wonders. Send them to amusement parks, sporting events, concerts and movies instead. Keep them busy, busy, busy!! And, when they meet for spiritual fellowship, involve them in gossip and small talk so that leave with troubled consciences and unsettled emotion.” “Go ahead, let them be involved in soul winning. But crowd their lives with so many good causes they have no time to seek power from Christ. Soon they will be working in their own strength, sacrificing their health and family for the good of the cause. It will work! It will work!” It was quite a convention. And the evil/dark angels went eagerly to their assignments causing Christians everywhere to get busy, busy, busy and to rush here and there.
