** Who are you really? Most do not have any real idea how to access it! This we shall seek! **
Part 2 of What are Laws?
Each of us must identify with our true self!
Which is developed more by our Character building than or far-flung and often misguided Reputation!
Exploring our self-identity is key to really knowing our self!
First, we must come to know who we are in order to be able to live the life set before us!
The absolute truthful way is to do what we used to call soul searching! Much of this comes from our personal desire to find the Truth about our-self.
This is a stumbling block to most people because they are afraid of what they will find!

** People generally have some reputation for which they are known. This is not always their true personality. Because some think or worry about their popularity in place of the facts in their lives. **
Part 1 of What are Laws?
Why do some not obey the laws?
Mainly because of either greed or self-centered!
Laws are principles either natural {Law of Gravity} or laid down by humans {Laws against stealing, or killing, or attacking other people or their personal property - goods} - Which were based upon the Laws given by God!
Yet there are people who complain that certain of man’s laws that they do not like or want to obey. But they expect some of the other laws they like - carried out and people prosecuted.
Odd that they skip or overlook some personally disregarded laws while ... read more Life is?? #157 conversion is necessary 7 y

Luke 22:32 ”But I have prayed for you, that your faith will not fail: and when you art converted, strengthen your brothers.”
The concept of ”conversion” is mentioned in the Holy Scriptures at least 14 times. The basic meaning of the term is a turning or returning to God. This implies a turning away from sin and a turning to God. Repentance and putti ... read more Life is?? #156 Changed the known world within thirty years 7 y

If you truly love one another, The Blessing will flow!.
John 13:35 ”By this shall all men know that you are my disciples if you have love one to another.”
Jesus didn’t say that all men would know we are His disciples by our doctrine, our rituals, our hatred for sin, or even by the way we express our love for God. He said very clearly, that the one characteristic that would cause the world to identify us as His followers, is our love, one for another.

Is Death On Your Dinner Plate?
Take a look around your kitchen and see what oils you’re cooking with. Chances are you are serving up a plate of cancer to your family every time you cook for them.
Vegetable oils such as canola, soybean, corn, and margarine should never be used to begin with and especially not for high temperature cooking because they go rancid in high temperatures meaning they produce a ton of free radicals.

Assume that God sovereignly controls everything.

This is a wrong assumption. God is sovereign, but He has given dominion to mankind.

The Whole People Are the Militia
The Second Amendment reads as follows: “A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed.” The immediate impetus for the amendment has never been in dispute. Many of the revolutionary generation believed standing armies were dangerous to liberty. Militias made up of citizen-soldiers, they reasoned, were more suitable to the character of republican government.

The Righteousness of Christ
The Law was in effect from the beginning and remains in effect. The penalty for the transgression of that Law is death. Christ not only died to vicariously pay our penalty, but He did even more. Christ provided the only means by which we could partake of His righteousness and overcome our inherited nature. Through this means, He “reconciled” us with the Father.

** Here is a man whom I have followed for years; like many people who search and seek the truth of The Bible - the world finds reasons to disprove and not believe The Holy Scriptures - he has been made a marked man! These discoveries have been dismissed by scientists, historians, creationists and even biblical scholars. {“He is the freeman whom the truth makes free"}
Ronald Eldon Wyatt (2 June 1933 – August 4, 1999) was an adventurer noted for advocating the Durupınar site as the site of Noah’s Ark, along with many other alleged Bible related discoveries. These have been dismissed by scientists, historians, biblical scholars, and other creationists, but his work continued to have a strong following.
Wyatt was working as a anesthetist in a hospital in Madison, Tennessee,[1] when in 1960, he saw a picture in Life magazine of the Durupınar site, a boat-like shape on a mountain near Mount Ararat.

Matthew 25:40 ”And the King shall answer and say unto them, Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as ye have done it unto one of the least of these my brethren, ye have done it unto me.”
When a kind act was done to someone in need, Jesus said it was done unto Him. The Lord deeply feels our hurts. When someone is neglected, Jesus says He is also being neglected. We have a high priest who is touched by the feelings of our infirmities (Heb. 4:15). When we hurt, He hurts. When we are blessed, He is blessed.

Trump the Theocrat?
In 1945, George Orwell penned Animal Farm. One of his characters was Squealer the pig, who arbitrarily redefined words so that they would mean what he wanted. As Orwell explained about Squealer, “he could turn black into white” as part of his attempt to get the other animals to accept his message.

Jesus says the disciples were betrayed by parents, brothers, relatives, friends, and some disciples were even put to death.
Yet, the amazing statement of Christ is that not a hair of their head will perish.
The context of this statement speaks of some of the disciples dying, so this is not a promise that no physical harm will ever come. This could only refer to the resurrecti ... read more |
