1 Peter 2:9





But you are a chosen race, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people for his own possession, that you may proclaim the excellencies of him who called you out of darkness into his marvelous light.

Quit worrying about PEOPLE. Study the scriptures, discuss them. Learn them. Pray and let GOD be God.

....
You are actually serious.


Listen carefully....Quit worrying about scriptures, study the PEOPLE, discuss them, learn them, pray for understanding and caring.

I called you crazy in an earlier post. That wasn't right, and I am sorry.

I can understand why the atheist threads often invict vitriol. If I grew up hearing some of this, man... Lol

Is scripture the word of god to you? The truth?
If not, why be here at all? Do you not like The children of God?

Galtians 3:26 For you are all children of God through faith in Christ Jesus.

No. This thread is not about my beliefs about the Bible and God and I've no desire to play 20 Questions.

That's it right there, Nate. We're right here. We're not in a book written a couple thousand years ago. Look at our lives. See into our hearts.

Gal 3:24-29
Therefore the Law has become our tutor to lead us to Christ, so that we may be justified by faith. 25But now that faith has come, we are no longer under a tutor. 26For you are all sons of God through faith in Christ Jesus. 27For all of you who were baptized into Christ have clothed yourselves with Christ. 28There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither slave nor free man, there is neither male nor female; for you are all one in Christ Jesus. 29And if you belong to Christ, then you are Abraham’s descendants, heirs according to promise.

Nate loves his fellow man/woman. Which is why he chooses to look at our lives right here, right now. We're not in the Bible, Kim. The same Christ that is in you, is waiting to be encountered in us. If you'd just see us.

The forum is Christianity, read above.

Even by the secular definition, if you don't believe in this, why are you here? Is it just to oppose Followers of Christ and his teachings, those that adhere to scripture as their truth?
