Rejecting the cultural Christianity I grew up with to embrace and enjoy a relationship with Jesus Christ. A place to come and share thoughts about almost anything. Especially things of the Lord. Please no Anonymous posts, I enjoy knowing who is writing to me.

Feelings Are Neither Here Nor There
Feelings are fleshly and do not help us. It is best to think rationally to evaluate our feelings, whether they are truth or godly. If they are not, then ignore them and do the right thing.
Waiting On God!
Arabs have been a continual problem to the Jews, in attempts to expunge them from the face of the earth.
Ishmael is the father of this rebel nation of Islam, they claim parentage through Abraham. They are the children of Abraham, but they are the illegitimate children of a slave girl. Praise the Lord that God can save them just as He can save us, but their nation as a whole, will always be a problem to Israel.
Notice what happened when Abraham went ahead of God to fulfill God's promise his own way rather than believing God and waiting on Him.
Do we want God to perform His miracles and promises to us, or do we set out to do them our own way and reap the terrible consequences of our willfulness?

Dinosaurs Walked With Man
Dinosaurs Walked With Man
The true science has been documented in the Bible! All that we have been taught in the public institutions about the big bang theory has been nothing more than pure perverted imagination, ferry stories developed by men who set out to destroy the faith of many, to disprove the existence of God.
God describes in His Word how the world was formed and even mentions in some detail the creatures that lived and walked on the earth during the time of man.
One of the creatures we were raised to believe was a cartoon character was that of the dragon. The Leviathan was a creature such as this.
God speaking in Job about the Leviathan, a dinosaur dragon that walk when Job walked:
Job 41
New American Standard Bible (NASB)
God’s Power Shown in Creatures
"41 “[a]Can you draw out [b]Leviathan with a fishhook?
Or press down his tongue with a cord?
2 “Can you put a [c]rope in his nose
Or pierce his jaw with a [d]hook?
3 “Will he make many supplications to you,
Or will he speak to you soft words?
4 “Will he make a covenant with you?
Will you take him for a servant forever?
5 “Will you play with him as with a bird,
Or will you bind him for your maidens?
6 “Will the [e]traders bargain over him?
Will they divide him among the merchants?
7 “Can you fill his skin with harpoons,
Or his head with fishing spears?
8 “Lay your hand on him;
Remember the battle; [f]you will not do it again!
9 “[g]Behold, [h]your expectation is false;
Will [i]you be laid low even at the sight of him?
10 “No one is so fierce that he dares to arouse him;
Who then is he that can stand before Me?
11 “Who has [j]given to Me that I should repay him?
Whatever is under the whole heaven is Mine.
12 “I will not keep silence concerning his limbs,
Or his mighty strength, or his [k]orderly frame.
13 “Who can [l]strip off his outer armor?
Who can come within his double [m]mail?
14 “Who can open the doors of his face?
Around his teeth there is terror.
15 “His [n]strong scales are his pride,
Shut up as with a tight seal.
16 “One is so near to another
That no air can come between them.
17 “They are joined one to another;
They clasp each other and cannot be separated.
18 “His sneezes flash forth light,
And his eyes are like the eyelids of the morning.
19 “Out of his mouth go burning torches;
Sparks of fire leap forth.
20 “Out of his nostrils smoke goes forth
As from a boiling pot and burning rushes.
21 “His breath kindles coals,
And a flame goes forth from his mouth.
22 “In his neck lodges strength,
And dismay leaps before him.
23 “The folds of his flesh are joined together,
Firm on him and immovable.
24 “His heart is as hard as a stone,
Even as hard as a lower millstone.
25 “When he raises himself up, the [o]mighty fear;
Because of the crashing they are bewildered.
26 “The sword that reaches him cannot avail,
Nor the spear, the dart or the javelin.
27 “He regards iron as straw,
Bronze as rotten wood."

Fighting With God?
Fighting With God?
I was once accused of giving too much scripture. What was amusing to me is that I thought I wasn't giving enough.
The one who accused me said she wanted to hear my thoughts, that I didn't seem to be able to think for myself.
I knew the real reason for her complaint, she wanted to argue with me about "my opinion", while being uncomfortable with arguing with God.
She had nothing to say against me when it was God I was quoting. The only criticism she had against me was to quote too much of God's Word. LOL!
There are times when we need to be silent and just let God speak through His Word. Let the rebellious fight with God, He can handle it.
