If you have to try and publicise your garbage on this forum with so many spam threads, I guess not too many people are taking much notice of it!

Probably *ignore* is best. The believers no doubt have their own churches and no inclination to buy what someone else is peddling. Forum is open to him to try, though.

Apart from the employment for your income which can be many things , which even Jesus spirit can give insight in what can be a bonus ....... The works of Christ can be many things also , as it should come with the baptism of Holy Spirit as only the things which Jesus does through people will have rewards in heaven , where the things people do for the true righteousness of Jesus will be remembered by God , and be part of the development of selflessness , and the fruits of the spirit which are needed in the afterlife ....... The works of Christ come by the callings of Christ as all gifts of the Holy spirit are there primary for the great commission of souls for heaven , but these gifts can be used to bless others in their development in Christ ..... See the gifts of the Holy Spirit is the grace of God working were people are in unity with God ...... The works of Christ do not save us , as the obedience to get saved and keep saved are not considered works of Christ , as salvation is a gift of God ...........

The Word of God! It is marrow to your bones. It is unction. It is resurrection from every weakness. It is life from the dead.

"See that you walk circumspectly, not as fools, but as wise, redeeming the time, because the days are evil. Wherefore be not unwise, but understand what the will of God is." - Ephesians 5:15-17

You know there are things you are doing now that are temporary. You are doing them only until you find the thing God wants you to do, the real work you were meant to do. When the fire reaches your core, you will trash all the vestiges of harmless, powerless living.

We don't have lecterns in America, we have pulpits. Have to say I like your word better though.

Well what has always set me on fire is software development. As a Christian I would have credited god with this ... destiny. In point of fact though, god isn't needed to explain it. It is simply my personal strengths and interests intersecting with the right form of expression.

Sorry! I bin watching too many you tubes of Creationists reading from a Universal Compendium of science and History called "Genesis" and using what looked like a lectern.

I'm thinking we godless hellspawn should leave Albert here a clear field. Let the Sheep nibble at him.
