Throw ropes, not rocks!!!


This Christmas eve, the season of peace on earth and good will toward men, I sit here contemplating the great debates of BC (Calvinism/free will, security/non-secure, etc).

I am reminded we are called to rescue the perishing and to care for the dieing. I'm not pushing for some ecumenical utopia...I'm only suggesting for a couple days, how about everyone put down their rocks?

Can we edify the Christ of Christmas? At least today and tomorrow? Start hammering your plow shares Wednesday, ok? Christ deserves this honor everyday, but certainly we can comply for the remainder of today and tomorrow?

"...if there is anything praiseworthy - meditate on these things." Philippians 4:8

What say ye?

"He is no fool who gives what he cannot keep to gain that which he cannot lose." - part of Jim Elliot's October 28, 1949 journal entry

One life will soon be passed, only what's done for Christ will last!

And I am going to start singing!!


* Sin is sin. Careful what comes across your lips & out your finger tips!!!
* We are all the Body of Christ. Let's treat each other as such, with the same respect we give to HIM!!
* Relationship advice: DO NOT make someone a PRIORITY, when they ONLY make you an OPTION!!
* A woman's heart should be so lost in God, that a man has to seek HIM in order to find her!!

I dont think there would even be a discussion regarding Calvinism if Calvinists were not pushing something down peoples throats that they had no choice etc. The debate will always go on. No big deal, not everyone will be meant to be your friend.

Crap! I agree with Dennis. I hate it when that happens!!! Del has already broken the truce. And you didn't give me enough rope to make a noose for him. Darn you!!!
