Re: Truth
People have alway rebelled against God. In your heart you & I know you are rebelling now. Like a spoiled boy trying to get the attention of your father, be it good or bad. I'm not trying to convince you wether or not God is real. I'm telling for a fact I know He is Real and you are on the verge of admitting it or you wouldn't feel like you had to post in this absurd thread about Jesus. Something in your heart was touched in this thread or you wouldn't have chimed in. Point blank, don't be a coward talk to the Man in a dark quiet place, confess to yourself and to Him that you are not enough and that with as much as you have.... something is still missing. You are still seeking something, someone. See the human was made to worship to have community with God. But we screwed that up. Romans 3:23 says all have fallen short of the glory of God. Romans 6:23 says 23For the wages of sin is death. God in all His divine wisdom chose that He would not wipe the earth clean again. He prepared a Last Sacrifice so that we could have community with Him again. The second part of Romans 6:23 states but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord. See Everyone knows Jesus died on the cross for them, yet few choose to die to self and confess with their lips and with their hearts. They want proof but can't even finish a couple of you tube links, want to argue and to stir in mysticism with truth. Truth Christ Died For You to repair community with you. Atheism wasn't born out of christianity or what ever godless religion you might try to force on others, it is born out of rebellion and self worship. Once The one sows the seeds it is up to the soil to grow the seeds.
Luke 8: 4-15 4 While a large crowd was gathering and people were coming to Jesus from town after town, he told this parable: 5 “A farmer went out to sow his seed. As he was scattering the seed, some fell along the path; it was trampled on, and the birds ate it up. 6 Some fell on rocky ground, and when it came up, the plants withered because they had no moisture. 7 Other seed fell among thorns, which grew up with it and choked the plants. 8 Still other seed fell on good soil. It came up and yielded a crop, a hundred times more than was sown.”
When he said this, he called out, “Whoever has ears to hear, let them hear.”
9 His disciples asked him what this parable meant. 10 He said, “The knowledge of the secrets of the kingdom of God has been given to you, but to others I speak in parables, so that,
“‘though seeing, they may not see;
though hearing, they may not understand.’[a]
11 “This is the meaning of the parable: The seed is the word of God. 12 Those along the path are the ones who hear, and then the devil comes and takes away the word from their hearts, so that they may not believe and be saved. 13 Those on the rocky ground are the ones who receive the word with joy when they hear it, but they have no root. They believe for a while, but in the time of testing they fall away. 14 The seed that fell among thorns stands for those who hear, but as they go on their way they are choked by life’s worries, riches and pleasures, and they do not mature. 15 But the seed on good soil stands for those with a noble and good heart, who hear the word, retain it, and by persevering produce a crop.
Jimmy and I have sown the seed through God with the wisdom, guidance, and power of His Holy Spirit. He prepares the soil, prepares the seed, sows the seed, and reaps the harvest through His workers, if that seed takes root in your life and you feel the need to confess your self worship and idolatry to God, then do it in a dark lonely place. Confess that Jesus is Lord. Talk to your Father ask for His guidance through His Holy Spirit, ask Him to baptize you with His Holy Spirit. Confess, repent, and ask for sanctification that is my prayer for you. Not for religion, not for control, not for the one thousand negative reasons you can come up with; but for your family.... the future generations that will be thrown in the fire with you, your wife, your children, their children all because you cannot repent of your idolatry and all its forms. May those seeds fall upon good soil, Father. Amen.
