Four important things to KNOW:
ReplyDelete1) For ALL (Americans, Muslims, Jews, Catholics, Hindus, Buddhist,
Asians, Presbyterians, Europeans, Baptist, Brazilians, Methodist, etc.)
have sinned & fall short of the glory of God.
2) For the wages of above (see #1) are DEATH (Hell, eternal separation
from God, & damnation) but the Gift (Free & at No Charge to you) of
God (Creator, Jehovah, & Trinity) is Eternal Life (Heaven) through (in
union with) Jesus Christ (God, Lord, 2nd Person of The Trinity, Messiah,
Prince of Peace & Savior).
3) For God so greatly loved & dearly prized the world (Americans, Muslims,
Jews, Catholics, Hindus, Buddhist, Asians, Presbyterians, Europeans, Baptist,
Brazilians, Methodist, etc.) that He even gave up His only begotten (unique)
Son, that whosoever (anyone, anywhere, anytime - while still living) believes
(trust in, relies on, clings to, depends completely on) Him shall have eternal
(everlasting) life (heaven).
4) Jesus said: "I am THE WAY, THE TRUTH, & THE LIFE. No one (male/female
- American, Muslim, Jew, Catholic, Hindu, Buddhist, Asian, Presbyterian,
European, Baptist, Brazilian, Methodist, etc. ) comes (arrives) to the Father
(with GOD in Heaven) EXCEPT BY (through) ME (no other name).
This wonderful loving GOD gives you the choice - - -

Have you ever purchased a book or attended a costly seminar on how to stop
ReplyDeletespending money? Problems tend to multiply themselves, don't they?
With wry insight, author Mercer Schuchardt observes how we work our way
into odd circles of behavior. He writes, "When you finally realize you
hate the city, you move to the suburbs--far from work, shopping, and
friends--and so you have to drive everywhere. Then you have to jog
through your suburb to lose all the weight you gained sitting in your car
and office. By having engines on your lawnmowers, saws, and any other
work-replacing tools, you condemn yourself to purchasing exercise machines
to give yourself a 'workout.' You take your cell phone on dates, stop in
the middle...to answer it, take your laptop on vacation, and become so
bored, numb, and despairing in the process that you spend your free time
watching someone else's more interesting though completely imaginary life
on TV."(1)
We are confronted daily with paradoxes that are easily overlooked. In one
sense we are encouraged to acquire as much as possible and as soon as
possible to reel in "the good life." Yet, the glut of goods and
soft-living create consequences we do not like. So we find more pricey
remedies for the very things that we were encouraged to purchase in the
first place!
It's easy to get into frantic cycles of purchase upon purchase to bring a
sense of stability to life, but the repercussions of such a method are
often empty and exhausting. Perhaps the growing interest in simplicity,
in downsizing, and in various forms of spirituality is a growing sign of
the inadequacy of hyper-consumption to meet our deepest hungers. Though a
change in course is never wrought without steady effort, it is possible to
turn the ship of paradox around.
Let me also add that much of what we buy depends on what we value, and
this gets at the worldview that lies under our decisions. As Jesus
observed long before cell phones and credit cards, "For where your
treasure is, there your heart will be also" (Matthew 6:21).
Moreover, the philosophy of life to which we hold will also shape the
expectations we attach to the goods we purchase. Where our hearts
are dictates the hope we have in our treasures. The words of Christ
bid us to ask: what do my habits of consumption reveal about me? And if
we see problems with what lies beneath, can it really be that another
string of purchases will be the solution?
Consider taking root in something deeper, something lasting, something
that takes commitment, yet is free of charge--something that is given by
the only one who can meet the deepest need. Jim Elliot who gave his life
to bring good news to a secluded people said it well: "He is no fool who
gives what he cannot keep to gain what he cannot lose."

A guy gets shipwrecked. When he wakes up, he`s on a beach.
ReplyDeleteThe sand is purple. He can`t believe it. The sky is purple.
He walks around a bit and sees that there is purple grass,
purple birds and purple fruit on the purple trees. He`s
shocked when he finds that his skin is starting to turn
purple too.
"Oh no!!" he says, "I think I`ve been marooned!!"
