I missed church one morning and had to go back to my college days..having church while in bed watching it on the internet. My church and my friends church have a live feed. So you can watch it and join in..in real time.

So you are in bed clapping your hands, saying Hallelujah, bless the name of the Lord. Hahaha! It was funny at first, but cool to realize that it really is within you the praise.

Anyways...this happen to be first Sunday. So I was about to miss communion...I ran to the kitchen got me some bread and water and joined communion. It felt sooo right. Just HOLY!
 
I would keep the Christianity forum in my prayers. I pray for it to continue to be a place where followers of Jesus Christ can fellowship, learn, grow, and edify one another. I pray for peace and love to abound here. I pray for us Christians to become more Christ-like and be representatives of Christ in our world and on this forum. I also pray the CF would be a place where non-Christians come and have an encounter with Jesus and align their lives with God's purpose for it. May the spirit of distraction,confusion, and negativity have no place here in Jesus's name. Amen.
 
HOW CAN A WOMAN NOT LOVE THE LORD?

© He is a gentleman,

© He is confident

© He is a provider and protector

© He is rich and powerful

© He owns everything, there is nothing He wouldn't do for me

© He perfects all things concerning me

© He anticipates my wants and needs

© Every day He tells me and shows me how much He loves me

© I don't have to perform in order to earn His love

© He keeps all of his promises

© No one can influence His opinion of me

© He is the ultimate intimate partner

© He can't "disown" me because I am a part of Him

© He prepares a table before me (Selah)

© He covers me and &n bsp;does not expose me

© He wrote His loving words down so that I'll never forget how He feels about me!

NOW THAT'S LOVE!!!

Any man, who wants pointers on how to love a woman, should study GOD!

Wake up every day and thank God for being the best "man" in your life!​
 
Thank you God for answering my prayers to show yourself to me.

Thank you Lord for my wonderful counselor......THE HOLY GHOST!

Christian Fellowship is a powerful thing. I can't wait until we do it again!!!!
 
I'M SO TIRED OF BEING A LUKEWARM CHRISTIAN.........

If Jesus lives in me, why shoudln't I shout it for all to hear?
 
I'm sooooo blessed and highly favored of the Lord!

He's always giving to me....and I'm forever grateful to Him and His faithfulness!

I love you, Jesus!
 
Truth sets one free to give when, where and how it is needed. Truth doesn't always give a good feel. It is often sharp and piercing, like brightly shone lights into dim eyes. Truth is not always an accusation, sometimes it is a mere indicator of an existing imbalance. Maturity develops slowly on the road to truth and equalizes it's heavy weight. One cannot know everything in one season of life but if one seeks out truth and does not cast it away when he finds it because it inflicts pain, maturity will develop like a magnificent rose. There is freedom in that path, there is unity in that path, there is peace in that path where the rose is so sweetly in bloom.
 
whats the sinners prayer? and where is it in the bible? what happen to baptism? I was at a funeral and a speaker got up and said I said the sinners prayer to my sister and she nodded her head, when I saw that I knew she was saved.

I been reflected on that every since she said it. I didn't find the "sinners prayer" in the bible. Yet its accepted as the way to get saved. Hmmmm...................................................................

You should listen to Pastor Washer's sermon. He talked about that. I don't agree nor disagree with it tho, so I'm not saying any one way is right. Just that some sent a link about it. I'm not sure why it was titled "shocking."
 
Lord I thank you for grace and mercy! This life wasn't meant to be easy but it could be so much harder without your presence. Lord thank you for loving when I couldn't even love myself. Lord I THANK YOU for protecting me even when I didn't know that I was in harms way. At this very moment my heart is filled overflowing emotions and I feel your presence.


I am so happy to be a friend of God:
John 15:13 - "Greater love has no one than this, that one lay down his life for his friends."
 
In Jesus Name...Amen

My Auntie and I were in the Avenue. The sales person said she might have a skirt for $16.95 to match the suit jacket my aunt was about to buy.

My aunt told her to get the skirt and it came out to be $9.95. Why did my Auntie cut her step right there at the cash register? LOL :lachen: Wheeww...Thank You Jesus! Thank You Jesus! Yes, Praise the Lord!

ALLL TYPES OF LOUD! I was cracking up. That's something my friends and I would do..but, I've never seen anyone else do it..and it was hilarious. So I just laughed and said wow that is a BLESSING!

Another lady said oo I want that skirt. So they go and get the skirt and it came out to be $16.95. HAHAHAHAHAHA! I said the Lord gave you that deal because he knew you were going to give him glory ALL LOUD IN THE STORE. And that's what He wanted.

As soon as the skirt came up to $16.95 for the other lady...my aunt grabbed her bag..she had already paid and said thank you. We hi-tailed it out of that store so quickly. Hahahahahaha!

My random thought(s):

  • It is sad that christians in general appear less knowledgeable about their own book & religion than non-believers.
  • It is sad that so many so-called christians are closed-minded in an ungodly, unchristlike way.
  • Sometimes the lost that needs to be sought is staring back at you in your mirror.
  • I keep forgetting that I'm perfect.
  • Altar calls, while not wrong or inappropriate, are completely unnecessary.
  • I don't like the praise & worship part of service. I prefer to sit & they act like I've re-crucified christ. Where does it say I have to stand? Can't we all just get along? Apparently not when you're sitting.
  • If we need each other to survive why don't we car pool to service & be patient in the parking lot?
  • Why are you hugging me? Do I know you? Did you ask? You have no right to touch me without my permission even in church.
  • I think I'm going to change from CME to CMENYE.
  • I pray with my head up and eyes open.
  • Don't give me the side eye when I use my antibac wipes or gel after holding hands. Didn't you just blow your nose & cough before touching it? And you need to say yes if I offer you some.
  • Does the choir get breath mints before they perform? I've always wondered about that.

Father was pissed and part of his homily was a "rebuke" to those who gave him the stomach flu. His advice and admonition? If you're sick, stay at home. If you come anyway and sneeze into your hand, don't feel like you should shake hands to offer the sign of peace. "Saved" is relative...imho lol. You make perfect sense. Find your own peace and own it!! You are encouraging in ways you cannot imagine.
 
AAAAACKCKKKKKKK!!!!! What is going to happen to my life?

Where am I going to end up?

I just found out my best sistergirlfriend is getting married for the THIRD time... and in less than a couple of months.... Last I heard she was very upset at some things that went down with him...and then today it's like a 180-degree turn! She said she hasn't said much because she doesn't want to "jinx" it... I can understand that... and I don't get into her business like that and I have not said anything contrary to what she wants to do....I just told her that things shouldn't be so hard and that I want her to be happy. So I know that if she's going to marry him, then those issues have been settled and as long as she's happy, I'm happy.

It's just a reminder at how I've always admired her for always moving on with her life and I feel like I've been holding up my life for everybody else, including the Lord.

And then this week I got an email announcing a new book written by a 45-year-old virgin.... WHAT? That SIMPLY CANNOT BE MY END! IT CANNOT!

It isn't. Don't ask me how I know, I just know. :yep:
 

Somedays I would jump at the chance to never hurt or feel pain again with Jesus. I'd be anxious to continually praise and worship Him. It would definitely trump the ups and downs of life on this earth. And as I get closer to Him each day, I can say with absolute certainty that my "yes" to this grows stronger and stronger.

 

Don't be so befuddled about why DH won't go to church or gets an attitude when you go six out of seven days.

While you're busy doing more for your church, some ministry & your pastor than your DH, DH is resentful that he & your family are second.

When you two married you were supposed to put your spouses' things first.

Now with whom is DH going to share that part of his heart that's supposed to be yours if you're always where you're not supposed to be?

I'm sorry but this is hilarious :lachen:

Confessing with your mouth is the outward sign that your heart and spirit have been reborn in Christ:

Romans 9:9-10
9That if you confess with your mouth, "Jesus is Lord," and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. 10For it is with your heart that you believe and are justified, and it is with your mouth that you confess and are saved.

The "sinners prayer" is just a simple way to perform that confession. It is best if a person is explained the scripture and doctrine behind the sinners prayer so it doesn't become merely some legalistic ritual. It is the faith and belief behind the confession that really matters, not the exact words being said.
 
Why do non Christians hang around the Christian forum trying to make people think that they believe what we believe when they don't? What do they hope to accomplish?
 
LOL @ ^^^^ I don't think that non-Christians really care what Christians think of them so I doubt they would take any effort at all in trying to make us Christians think they believe what we believe. :laugh:

Random thought of many for today:
Why do people speak scripture to satan? He knows more scripture than most real or fake Christians will ever know and quote it to us (like he did with Jesus in Matthew 4:6). Resisting him is what makes him flee (James 4:7).
