TWO FACED CHRISTIANS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Galatians 3 verse 28 clears state that there is no Jew nor Greek, their is neither bond or free, there is neither male or female for ye are all one in Christ So why is it that with such a strong and beautiful message we still find that in christian organisation people still are marganlised for being different. Christian still see colour, gender and class. Are we just two faced christians, who shout out their love to God and on the other hand fail to love thy neighbour. I have come to a realisation that i need to look less at christians for aspiration, as most of them fail themselves, let alone have any chance of changing sinners in the world. Someone once said if it was not for christians, many would be christians. Just food for thought!!! Have a good day. |

TWO "things" divide the body of Christ. Heresy, which means "choice" is an alternate teaching to the true Word of God. It brings division through "doctrine." It is a lack of love for the TRUTH of the Word of God. Schism, as is found in 1 Corinthians 12:24-25 also brings division and is caused by lack of love for brethren. This division is caused when a believer thinks and maintains attitude against someone for many reasons... "Oh, that brother thinks he knows it all." "Oh, that sister thinks she looks good in that dress or hat." "Oh, I wish the pastor wouldn't take so long." "Oh, look at sister so-and-so, she always has to get involved in other peoples conversations. It is a heart condition that prevents true unity of Spirit in the bond of peace. It is a lack of love. Ephesians 4:2-3..."With all lowliness and meekness, with longsuffering, forbearing one another in love; 3 Endeavouring to keep the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace.

Galatians 3:28..."There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither bond nor free, there is neither male nor female: for ye are all one in Christ Jesus." This passage is in reference to spiritual things in Christ. Paul is saying that in spiritual matters we are equal. This is the spiritual order: God, Christ, Church (believers) The natural order is: God, Christ, man, woman. Where Bible And Christian Meet If You Only Knew

Someone once said if it was not for christians, many would be christians. That isn't what the Lord said though..is it ? I can tell where the spirit of that statement came from. It came from the pit of hell sister. People make their own choice to seek the Truth or not. If we honestly and truthfully seek the Truth..He will be found. More importantly in reality..He will find us. It is the Spirit of God that draws us to Him. When every one of us stands before God..what will our excuse be if we rejected Him ? Will we be able to blame others for us shutting the ears of our own hearts to God Almighty ? Absolutely not..for there will be no excuses. There will not be any ..but but but buts.

Men cannot seek truth unless the Spirit enables them. Men are blinded by the god of this world. Only God can open blind eyes. We are ALL born with our eyes blinded and our ears deaf to God. We are born hating the Light, neither coming to the Light so that we may be converted. Even Jesus Christ Himself in His parables call men to the gospel, and also in the same parable prevents their receiving it. God is sovereign. Men will only behave according to their sin nature. This body of this death needs a resurrection and a change in the twinkling of an eye before we can truly be saved in totality. Presently, we are 2/3rds saved: soul and spirit. We await the redemption of our body. Until then, the believer cries out "Abba, Abba!" to His Father for the completion of their restoration. We cease to be only names in a book of life anbd begin to hold a substance before a holy God. And NO ONE can come to God unless God Himself has willed it! The man who desired healing understood the sovereignty of God (Matt. 8:2-3; Mark 1: 40-43; Luke 5: 12-13). There would be NO HEALING unless the Lord willed it. Mouthwash...can you say "Amen!" to this? Where Bible And Christian Meet If You Only Knew

Thank you for commenting on my blog, yes Mouth wash, the comment about if it was not for christians most would be christians is not a bible doctrine at all, just a saying. We can't run away from the fact that if our conduct was pure, just that would be enough to lure others to christ. When i turned to christ, i had this romantic idea that christian lived by the word and practised it and it takes maturity to continue to seek the truth and still not being affected with such christians. Yes Jeremiah1five you nailed it, its just lack of love that causes such actions to take place at all.

This isn't my blog. It belongs to our sister hazelpride. So, you'd have to address her out of respect. You're avoiding. Your refusal to say Amen to truth disturbs me. I believe hazelpride understands a love that REJOICES in the truth. 1 Corinthians 13:6..."Rejoiceth not in iniquity, but rejoiceth in the truth..." Let me (read) you say Amen to the Word of God I posted. I have already comment on hazelpride's post. Now, I was addressing you. You know this. Say "Amen" to the truth. Rejoice in the truth. Receive or reject. There is no medium. Hazelpride...watch what he does. He will either receive or reject the Word of God. Mouthwash, can I get an "Amen!" to the Word of God I bring?

HeIsRisenRejoice... Don't worry smarty-pants...I got you.  Here is one passage where the word appears and the strong's definition: 1 Corinthians 11:18-19..."For first of all, when ye come together in the church, I hear that there be divisions among you; and I partly believe it. 19 For there must be also heresies among you, that they which are approved may be made manifest among you." heresies: [Strong's #139] "hairesis" from [#138] (haireomai); properly a choice, i.e. (special) a party or (abstract) disunion. HeIs...care to share your sources and your sources definitions? Thanks, smarty-pants. Where Bible And Christian Meet If You Only Knew

I think it's all about trust. Races seem to trust their own race more on average. It's no different than how we treat family members versus people we don't know, but there are laws that try to avoid favoritism in that way. Clearly some of it is fear because people are not accustomed to something different, but I know it's a whole lot more about race because the facts are always there. It's about culture, upbringing, and beliefs as well. Everyone is too quick to blame racism but there are many other types of hatred out there. Hatred leads to racism, but many things lead to hatred. Those who are poor shouldn't be treated differently as James wrote about in the bible. We should all live by the same rules and have access to a clean and safe environment.

its simple... Jesus abided in the father, and Paul set the standard as he abided in Christ. Thats all we are called to do. Let Jesus live through us. The rest is contamination

Thanks for the blogs, Hi Helrisenrejoice, this is just a nickname, Hazel represents the colour of my eyes and Pride is what i feel in the Lord. I am glad that this blog got such response, and it is true Siennasun that we are a shell that is eroded by sin and we will make mistakes and sin as humans. What hurts me is that we do get so much opposition from non believers, is it not sad that we are a family who are fighting amongst ourselves. Why do we need enemies when we do it better ourselves. As Jeremiah1five clears states when love grips us, we cannot be concerned about a brother's or sister's ethnic background, or which class they belong too, or if the word is preached by a woman or a man. Is it not important that they are relaying the word of God, period!!!! Yet we see it today, that in some churches woman have limitation to what they are able to do, some people by virtue of their career are elevated to take part in certain church positions. peace
