All the Same 
 When a friend shared how her counselor had said that God’s chosen people were His favorite, that there are some He loves more, you can bet I came up for air.   I can only imagine how horrible that would be if I even thought that God couldn’t love... 
 
Religion Is Ignorance 
 When someone sees a rainbow, do they say, "I am seeing a physical reaction, that can be produced in laboratories with the right conditions," or do they say, "I am seeing the omen from god, that the world will not be flooded."? When someone sees... 
 
Seek God 
 God dwells within us. If God reveals something to us, according to scripture, that makes us a god (Jn. 10:35). However, we are not God. If the Spirit speaks through us, it is truth and it is God. It is God living through us. Yet, because another... 
 
Spirituality vs. Technology; A war of ideals

Then, what is the real Holy Spirit? 
Christianity is not just a religion but it is a way of Life. None of us could remain a Christian if it wasn't for someone, always with us, to help us thru this walk. Our understanding of Prophecy nor Scripture...

			Love Never Fails
  
				 "Father, forgive them;  for they know not what they do." Luke 23:24 
   How many times do you suppose we've hurt people and not realized it; to have reacted without thought; to have deemed another not ready, worthy, capable, or spiritual enough; to have picked our favorite over another; to have excluded one who didn't measure up; to sit by one more attractive, popular, or fun; to have been in such a hurry to greet one that we bypassed another; to have closed our hearts to someone whose words we didn't want to hear; to think we've done God a favor by getting rid of someone we thought difficult, different, or wrong?
   How many times do you suppose that that prayer has been prayed for us, "Father, forgive them; for they know not what they do?"
   Were we to ask God to open our eyes, to see ourselves as He sees us; to  
				
				
 
				 examine our heart, actions, attitudes, and motives ... God would be faithful to show us how we are hurting His cause.
   Once we've found our sin and corrected it, we can ask God to show us another and, then, another. One step at a time, we'll be weeding out the flesh and Satan's power over us while winning the world to Christ.
  Love never fails, I Co. 13:8. It's guaranteed!
