To follow your God-given heart wheresoever it may take you, without reservation? Why this need to kowtow to some overriding power rather than trust to faithnand to move forward?<BR/><BR/>If you feel inspired, then why not say so without reservation?<BR/><BR/>Or, if you feel subjugated to dogma, then confess it openly.<BR/><BR/>Don't play these silly rhetorical games.

He can see everything that goes on inside your body, He knows every hair on your head...He know it all, because He made it all.<BR/><BR/>You should be really thankful that God has so blessed you to live in a country where you are free, safe from terrorists, you have a home to protect you in times of bad weather, you have plenty of food to eat, clean water to drink, all the luxuries that you could imagine..God has placed at your convenience ... And yet you won't take one piece of it with you...<BR/><BR/>One dies in his full strength, Being wholly at ease and secure; His pails are full of milk, And the marrow of his bones is moist. Another man dies in the bitterness of his soul, Never having eaten with pleasure. They lie down alike in the dust, And worms cover them.<BR/><BR/>Look, I know your thoughts, And the schemes with which you would wrong me. For you say Where is the house of the prince? And where is the tent, The dwellling place of the wicked? Have you not asked those who travel the road? And do you not know their signs? For the wicked are reserved for the day of doom; They shall be brought out on the day of wrath. Who condemns his way to his face? And who repays him for what he has done? Yet he shall be brought to the grave, And a vigil kept over the tomb. The clods of the Valley shall be sweet to him; Everyone shall follow him, As countless have gone before him. How then can you comfort me with empty words, Since falsehood remains in your answers?<BR/><BR/>I have a power much greater than myself that I can count on to see me through whatever trials I may go through.<BR/><BR/>I choose the facts, instead of some loony idea that Satan plants in your head and tries to deceive me with it.<BR/><BR/>No need to give me the worldly garbage about evolution and other such rhetoric.<BR/><BR/>When you learn, you learn what God allows you to learn...and anything that you learn will be how God done it, not you, or anyone else.<BR/><BR/>--Jeremiah--Jeremiahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01412762676410944662noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3611445616930524299.post-35977246796748390132008-02-27T04:44:00.000-05:002008-02-27T04:44:00.000-05:00The problem, is you have the State teaching them t...<I>The problem, is you have the State teaching them things other than true Family Values.</I><BR/><BR/>OK - so YOU have a lock on what those should be, for all families.

Yes, of course, why should God's creation take the trouble to take care of itself? Ridiculous. Environmental advocacy? Gee, and here I thought the Bible encouraged stewardship rather than pillage! Broader access to higher education? Well, you may have me, here, since most educated people reject religious absolutism of the kind you espouse. Enlightenment can't remotely be on your agenda.<BR/><BR/>Face it, Jeremiah. It's you and your camp that have nothing to offer except a blind ideology that stagnates and paralyzes, rather than inspires, the Creation of the God you claim to honor.<BR/><BR/>Wise up and own up.

Do you want the govt. determining how you will spiritually connect and live?<BR/><BR/>Whether you're a god-hating Atheist or a Christian conservative, it's a must that church and state remain separate. And quit your divisive "Don't listen to the Secular Atheists, Humanists, and Liberals!" crap. This is anything but Christ-like.
