sharing a thought today: As I'm sitting here, thinking of the
journey I once had in the buildings they call churches, I
was thinking how, in that journey, so many people are left.. so many
people "fell away". Well those were the words we were using.</p>You
would hear people say how so-and-so fell away, went back "into the
world", "backslid", all these words, that today, I know really don't
mean what they were saying. I have a different understanding now, a
different view on those words.<br /><br />And I was thinking about the lives of many people.<br /><br /><div>You
hear, especially in children that are growing up in the church
buildings, how people will say, "Oh, they're going to backslide." "Oh, I see them, they're going the wrong way." "Oh,
they're going to go out in the world and do all kinds of things!" and
sometimes, I think, regarding the minister's children or the
leadership's children, do they really believe that their children aren't
going to make decisions and choices when they grow up? There's so many
things to talk about, why people leave a church building, and most of
the time it's not because they "backslide", you know, using that word,
backslide, it's other reasons.. so many reasons.</div><br />It would
probably take a whole series to talk on on that subject alone and, when
it comes right down to it though, we don't know the hearts of each
individual, we don't know what they're thinking and what they're going
through. We don't know what they're even believing or not believing so, I
was just thinking that, we really don't know what another individual is
going through! We don't know what these children that grow up, and
leave homes, we don't know what they're thinking but I <i>do</i> know
that everyone has a journey in life - They have their own path in life.
And when you grow up, you take your journey, you take that path and you
live in that path.<br /><div><br /></div><div dir="ltr">You follow the path that you choose - <i>What's right for yourself</i></div><br />And it has <i>nothing</i>
to do with backsliding or falling away or turning away from God or
wanting to do all these things. I say that because the focus, of the
majority of people in the church building, is they think the negative,
they think the bad, they spread the rumor, that that person is falling
away from God!<br /><br />But as i sit here and ponder on that, it makes me to believe, their life, their journey, their story, that's how it's <i>supposed to be</i>.
They're supposed to have their own path in life. They're supposed to
have their own story. Because it's between them and God, in the end, and
whatever path they choose to go in.<br /><br /><div>Sometimes it's even a
path where they will find God - THEY WILL! - Where they will know that
it wasn't all about the church building, and the rules and all that, it
was about an intimate relationship. Knowing how much you're loved and
forgiven and accepted by the almighty Father, by our Jesus, and that you
could be made alive! You know? <i>Born again</i> alive. You become new and alive with Jesus.<br /></div><br />So i just want to end my thought and pray, if <i>you </i>are led to - pray, for people. Pray for them.<br /><br />That they will know the truth, of His Perfect Love and Acceptance, and that the truth will set them free.<br /><br />In Jesus' name, amen2spothipshothttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10278456956637723868noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10021506.post-72429920693204554402019-01-28T15:04:00.000-08:002019-01-28T15:04:01.457-08:00God's Perfect Love?

In most denominations of Christian religion it is common to hear phrases like, "My relationship with God", "Make sure <b>you</b> have a relationship with Jesus", "Work on having a personal relationship with the Spirit..", etc., and that is a good thing to have - a personal relationship with your Creator. That said, when you look at the many types and qualities of relationships we have with each other and that, the very notion of relationship is an invention of your Creator, it makes sense to conclude that He <b>alone</b> can offer <b>any</b> relationship in its absolute perfection. We have parent to child, sibling to sibling, friend to friend and spouse to spouse and they can all be wonderful but, for a picture of any one of them in perfection, we must look to Him. I am not saying this so we can aspire to "live the impossible dream" by trying to be like God, rather, I believe the accuracy of this observation goes to the fact that <b>He</b>, your God who is "Jealous for you", has constructed this life. It is quite apparent, in my opinion, that <b>all</b> of us are designed with a "factory installed" <b>need</b> to be loved and accepted <b>perfectly</b>. It is also apparent that<b> none</b> of us is capable of accommodating those two needs, perfectly, for another individual, which should lead us to conclude that possessing the perfect love & acceptance - offered by God <b>alone</b> - is the one opportunity we have for peace and rest in this very chaotic world.</div>

Enter: religion (and I do<b> not</b> mean 'the cavalry'). Specifically, "Conventional Christianity". For brevity, after this, it will be referred to as "the yoke". I have not surveyed all under<i> the yoke</i> but, I believe there is evidence to suggest that very few of its members see there God as anyone like the above described <b>perfect</b> parent, sibling, friend or spouse. There are a lot of questions to be asked regarding that: Why? As in, "Why not?" How? As in, "How did we get here?" Who? As in, "Who made it like this?" or, more to the point, "Who is<b> keeping</b> it like this?" For the why and the how, and even the who, Genesis provides a very good account. But, again for brevity's sake, I will focus on the who of it (also, answering <i>the Who</i> can often give insights to the <i>Why</i> and <i>How</i> of it). But first, <i>for clarity's sake</i>, here's a thumbnail of why <b>I</b> believe God, Himself, is LITERALLY love, Itself, and Jesus is the personification of that love: </div>
<div class="yiv3109758198ydp27d70ea9yahoo-style-wrap" style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-family: verdana,helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 16px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: 400; letter-spacing: normal; orphans: 2; text-align: left; text-decoration: none; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; word-spacing: 0px;">
Once <b>before</b>-a time, before there was<b> any</b> time / thing(s) / or place to put them, God was and there was nothing and no one else, not even the angels. Then, before there was even the notion of something other than Himself, He thought about the idea of creating time, space and matter and -<b> most of all</b> - <b>YOU</b>. I say it like that because I believe He has great<b> intention</b> in His decision to create (both then AND now. As in, "then <i>because</i> of now"). Not for the purposes of manipulation, as in Calvinism, but for the intent of having someone who He made, Himself, with all the problems and complications that entails, with the end goal being that of what He lost in the garden -<b> relationship</b>. And the fact He did it this way is <b>the</b> reason your free will is such a big component. Without it, He's simply a tyrant.<b> By</b> it, He is your God by choice - <b>His</b> choice because He made you knowing you could reject Him in spite of this great gift, and yours because you have to <i>want Him to</i> <b>be</b> you're God. The amazing thing though:<b> All</b> the <i>risk</i> is <i>His</i>. And then He stepped it up to the absolute heights of perfect Love by becoming (not only<b> </b><i>like</i> one of us but) literally, <b>one of us</b>. That God, who was self-sufficient and in need of <b>nothing</b>, proved His love by first creating what -He certainly<i> knew</i>- would require thousands of years of longsuffering and then, at the apex of our religiously inspired rejection of Him, gave His very self for us that we might, finally, drop all the trust in self and institutions, etc. and look at that perfect Love and acceptance and say, "Okay, I trust you Lord. You and you alone. You want me? You have me - and I don't want anything or any-<b>one</b> else to give me what <i>only</i> you can." He did all that<b> knowing</b> many would never respond like that last sentence. <b>THAT</b> is God. <b>THAT</b> is Jesus. <b>THAT</b> is perfect love. So you see, in<b> His</b> very <b>un</b>-yoke-like plan, Jesus is the "Who" and the "How" and, <b>YOU</b> are the "Why". </div>
<div class="yiv3109758198ydp27d70ea9yahoo-style-wrap" style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-family: verdana,helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 16px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: 400; letter-spacing: normal; orphans: 2; text-align: left; text-decoration: none; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; word-spacing: 0px;">

Okay, we have perfect Love in the form of our God who came to rescue us from ourselves <b>or</b>, <i>the yoke</i>. God treats you like someone He formed, from His heart, with His own hands. The yoke? it tells you that He has no such love for you. Not only that, <i>the yoke</i> tells you that, <i>without the yoke</i>, He will <b>never</b> love or accept you even a little - let alone perfectly. Never fear, however, <i>the yoke</i> is here to "help" you "get right" with Him. Can you see the perversion? Can you see the absolute abuse? God says, "I made you because I love you and I want to be with you forever, my precious child. Trust in <b>Me</b> and Me<b> alone</b> and I will show you the wonders of My loving heart that beats for all who put their trust in Me." The yoke says, "Ya better obey and be the best (insert denomination here_______) you can be or He might not let you into His kingdom or even <b>curse</b> you!" Or, in its more sophisticated variants, "Learn the theological depths of these doctrinal dogmas and fill your mind (ego?) with quotes by intellectuals and you will realize all that God has for you." Or, worse yet, "God<i> cannot be known</i>. He cannot be understood. Follow <b>US</b> and we will show you the way...". </div>

Bottom line: Adam walked with God.<b> neither</b> one of them had a religious affiliation (i.e. they weren't "yoked up"). God brought him the animals "to see" what he would name them. God lost that due to a lie, the man believed, which said "Learn this knowledge and <b>BE</b> some-<b>ONE</b>". And now, He is restoring what He had to those who want to <b>KNOW</b> some<b>ONE</b> - for sake of <b>being near Him</b> in order to<b> explore</b> (<i>forever</i>) why He went to such great lengths to be with us - <b>for eternity</b>.</div>

<div style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; font-family: HelveticaNeue-Regular, Helvetica; word-break: break-word;">
<div style="word-break: break-word;">
<br style="word-break: break-word;" /></div>
<div style="word-break: break-word;">
My wife & I were at our end and had, in our hearts, truly given up. Counseling, talking, praying, reading books, everything we could think of...until we both came to this understanding: that our God loves us, He always has and, He always will - even if we fail at every effort to save our marriage. Or anything else for that matter.</div>
<div style="word-break: break-word;">
<br style="word-break: break-word;" /></div>
<div style="word-break: break-word;">
Now, before you say, "Or vey! These two wanna sell me unconditional love, that was yesterday for cryin' out loud!", I do admit it's ironic that this applies the day after that show. Although I would say His love & acceptance for people is <b>perfect</b>, not "unconditional". Here's why. I believe that God makes people. It's not us who makes us. (see: Psalm 100 "it is he that hath made us, and not we ourselves") So, if that is true, does He make things He hates? And, if He love's who He makes, when does He stop loving them? Or, once we lose this love, what must we do to get it back? What is the criteria, i.e. When do we know we are "good enough" for His love? Who determines these answers? These questions reveal to me that man is subjective while God is perfect so, because of this, He loves even the one who "makes his bed in hell" as the Psalmist wrote.</div>
<div style="word-break: break-word;">
<br style="word-break: break-word;" /></div>
<div style="word-break: break-word;">
In Jeremiah there's a prophecy of the new covenant wherein we are told that, He will forgive our iniquities & remember our sins no more. I take that as a thing that happened, literally, at the cross of Christ. Therefore, <b>All</b> are forgiven - the saint who believes, and the unbeliever who goes to hell. I also believe those two states of mind produce very different kinds of 'fruit'. One who really KNOWS He loves Him will be less likely to sin while, one who "knows" He doesn't has nothing to lose - "Eat, drink & be merry, for tomorrow I die."</div>
<div style="word-break: break-word;">
<br style="word-break: break-word;" /></div>
<div style="word-break: break-word;">
To shorten this up, it's not a question of, "Does He love unconditionally?" but, what is the love of the eternal God? Is it perfect and, is He the only one who can dispense it? </div>
<div style="word-break: break-word;">
The answers we found are, It is perfect, and, He alone has it to offer.</div>
<div style="word-break: break-word;">
<br style="word-break: break-word;" /></div>
<div style="word-break: break-word;">
Thank you, Dennis, I hope very much to carry on this conversation with you more.</div>
<div style="word-break: break-word;">
God bless you & keep up the good work, Mark and Suzette d. in Rancho C.</div>

An intelligent mind is not needed to create this information, and yet the information is still ‘actual’.//<br /><br />God <b>created</b> the tree (and the mind of the man who invented the chainsaw, allowing the unscrupulous "scientifical politicist" to intentionally misrepresent its neatly exposed rings) <b>and</b>, the now decaying corpse of, the human being. Having set in motion all creation, it only follows that His intelligent mind is behind every process His creation goes through, even if its "only" to the extent that he gave our minds free will to obey or disobey Him. His eternal nature points up that fact so, given this reality, the above does not include information free of an intelligent mind. Far from it. From start: "In the beginning was the word, and the word was with God, and the word was God." John 1:1 - To finish: (Jesus speaking) "Heaven and earth shall pass away: but my words shall not pass away." Mark 13:31<br /><br />As to infinity, it appears as though some are trying to fit Him into their idea of what that means. We can only understand it in the abstract so, how can one claim that He disobeys the laws of His own making? Why can't He be infinitely small, for instance, if it suits his purpose(s) at any given moment? Or infinitely absent? Or moving? Diverse? Invisible? Present? (Jesus speaking, "...My grace is sufficient for thee: for my strength is made perfect in weakness...." 2nd Cor. 12:9 "Blessed are the <b>poor </b><span style="font-style: italic;">{broken/contrite}</span><b> in spirit</b> : for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.") In Jesus dwelt, "the fulness of the Godhead bodily" (Col.2:9) and yet He struggled with His flesh and went to the Cross like a lamb! The lamb of God! Why? Could it be that He is infinitely humble? What the nonbeliever is saying is, in essence, "If God is infinite, He must -according to my finite ability to understand infinity- act ONLY in accordance to what (I comprehend) <b>infinity allows for</b>." Its all about context. If you were right in your assumption(s) of what infinity is then, yeah, God would adhere to THAT reality but, I don't think a finite being can know the true meaning of the great "I am" so who are we to presume what "constrains" Him? The pharisees held themselves above Him, and that is why they took up stones against Him: "Because... being a man (He made of Himself) God." John 10:33<br /><br />Don't ask me, or any other human, what means forever. That may be the crux of it: literal atheists won't believe in anything they won't see and believe that, eventually, ALL things can/will be discerned while theists accept that what is readily apparent to the mind, being endowed with a spark of His divine spirit, is sufficient for this life "And without controversy great is the mystery of godliness: God was manifest in the flesh, justified in the Spirit, seen of angels, preached unto the Gentiles, believed on in the world, received up into glory." 1st Tim. 3:16 And we are happy for it, not indignant at the very notion that we might not be privy to all knowledge of His creation.<br />That is why we worship Him and not it.<br /><br />Look at it this way: "For God so loved Tim, that He gave His only begotten..." When the truth in that statement hits you flush in your heart, you will fall in love and spend the rest of your life seeking His will. May God bless you and touch your heart with His love divine.2spothipshothttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10278456956637723868noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10021506.post-4205899638364451502009-10-10T11:47:00.000-07:002009-11-06T23:21:58.209-08:00Your World or His Way<b style="color: rgb(51, 51, 255);"> <big>Came here "alone", no wits but my own<br />Don't need no God.

Peggy Noonan is not a politician, why talk like one? You want my suggestion? Well here it is anyway:(P.N.) "I like Kay Bailey Hutchison, but mostly, I dread an Obama presidency so, I'm on board in public. I appologize for giving msnbc, a company that is 110% in the tank for Obama, enough rope to hang me. Especially if it has embarassed Gov. Palin. I wish her and Sen. McCain every success, and I hope all of you will still take me as a sincere and thoughtful person with something to offer. Falsity is a trait I wish never to be identified with and to that end, I offer my sincerest appologies to everyone I let down, Peggy Noonan."</span><br /><span style="font-size:130%;color:#3333ff;"></span><br /><span style="color:#000000;">Strangely enough, the Journal hasn't even offered me a position.
