Mhmm. I agree, @Semiprime

2019-06-28 03:12:11 UTC  

It gives us the capacity to seek out God and return to Him of our own free will.

2019-06-28 03:12:37 UTC  

Exactly. To become far better people and far closer to God.

2019-06-28 03:13:32 UTC  

We don’t win points with God for being better. It’s all about acknowledging Christ who died for our sins. Without which, we would all be doomed.

2019-06-28 03:13:56 UTC  

We can’t pay for our sins of ourselves

2019-06-28 03:14:16 UTC  

If you know Christ and do as he taught it makes you a better person. More loving and caring.

2019-06-28 03:14:43 UTC  

I know plenty of loving and caring people who don’t know Christ at all.

2019-06-28 03:14:51 UTC  

As you said. You can not earn your way to Heaven through good works.

2019-06-28 03:15:01 UTC  

Grace is a gift.

2019-06-28 03:15:08 UTC  

^^^

2019-06-28 03:15:13 UTC  

yeah, best not to shoot a gift horse in the mouth

2019-06-28 03:15:30 UTC  

Jesus said do not Judge them. I will judge them. I leave it up to God to judge.

2019-06-28 03:15:48 UTC  

what

2019-06-28 03:16:04 UTC  

you said you will Judge then you said you will leave it up to God to judge 🤔

2019-06-28 03:16:19 UTC  

I’m not condemning you. I’m simply telling you from my experience what I know is true. And my testimony is true.

2019-06-28 03:16:28 UTC  

I said I leave it up to God to judge. God will judge i will not.

2019-06-28 03:16:42 UTC  

you just said though

2019-06-28 03:17:04 UTC  

Jesus said I will Judge them.

2019-06-28 03:17:12 UTC  

Jesus will Judge.

2019-06-28 03:17:58 UTC  

Guess i put a period where a comma was proper. I am not great at grammer.

2019-06-28 03:18:24 UTC  

It’s not exactly a judgement call to state if you have an open wound, you need some gauze, and antiseptic.

2019-06-28 03:19:17 UTC  

oh you put a period there, lol misunderstanding

2019-06-28 03:19:18 UTC  

Yes. Someone to tell me I am bad at grammar I even spelled it wrong.

2019-06-28 03:20:39 UTC  

I prefer to overlook such things.

2019-06-28 03:20:48 UTC  

Getting a B in English was the hardest thing I ever did. Far more work than the four A's combined that semester.

2019-06-28 03:23:04 UTC  

Does anyone else notice a trend in culture recently? There is a movement of people being “woke” to their divine nature, but being led to deny the necessity of God. We are in a new kind of spiritual war, where I see that science can no longer refute the existence of God, so Satan is rolling with that and leading people to believe in Him, then trying to “prove” Him irrelevant.

2019-06-28 03:24:00 UTC  

No punches are being held back these days, that’s for sure. Put on the whole armor.

2019-06-28 03:24:07 UTC  

Yessir

2019-06-28 03:24:10 UTC  

Test everything

2019-06-28 03:24:21 UTC  

Even Jesus was tested

2019-06-28 03:24:39 UTC  

He passed, so we could pass also.

2019-06-28 03:24:48 UTC  

Also all the preachers preaching wealth not really the bible.

2019-06-28 03:25:05 UTC  

Prosperity gospel, yes. I don’t like it.

2019-06-28 03:25:29 UTC  

The more we rely on anything but God, the more power we give to control our lives and actions.

2019-06-28 03:25:42 UTC  

They are doing all they can to get people off God or to a God of their making.

2019-06-28 03:25:45 UTC  

Money is a tool, it’s not supposed to be a crutch.

2019-06-28 03:26:28 UTC  

Poor men in this world with Christ, are far richer than any wealthy man with money. For real.

2019-06-28 03:26:53 UTC  

Amen.

2019-06-28 03:27:30 UTC  

I am broke haha, but I am at peace and it’s something I never thought I’d be able to experience.

2019-06-28 03:27:56 UTC  

Contentment. Is beyond price.

2019-06-28 03:28:43 UTC  

Absolutely. Not to be confused with complacency.
