PERSEVERANCE WITH(OUT) PERSECUTION

Can we show perseverance without opposition?

Can we show bravery without fear?

Can we show faith without flack?

Can we follow Jesus without persecution?

Jesus said no.

“If they persecuted Me, they will persecute you.”

“All who live Godly in Christ Jesus will suffer persecution.”

“And when the fight is fierce, the warfare long,

Steals on the ear the distant, triumph song.

And hearts are brave again, and arms are strong.”

 

Christians, look to the Bible for authentic, historical Christianity—not to the Cinderella honeymoon we’ve had in America, dramatically coming to end.

“FAST FAITH”

Desperate prayers are legitimate.

But fast faith does not put God in a rush.

God often takes His time—and then He does things quickly.

And other times He chooses, “Before they call, I will answer; and while they are yet speaking, I will hear.”

Many times when I need wisdom for writing, I will pray for wisdom after He obviously gave the right words to write.

 

Isn’t it great to have a God not bound by time, or worry, or us!

PROCRASTINATION AND WORRY

Are there any possible virtues to worry?  Hardly

Are there any possible virtues to procrastination?   Possibly

What do you get when you combine procrastination and worry?

You get a Bible verse:  “Worry, tomorrow.”

“Take no thought (don’t worry) about tomorrow—tomorrow has enough worries of its own.”

 

So, don’t worry about tomorrow—worry tomorrow—and that would be a virtue of procrastination.

PRAY FOR PATIENCE ?

I prayed for patience, and I’m waiting for an answer.

“THE TRINITY”—FABRICATION—WHY ?

Theological wording surrounding “the trinity” creates a parallel universe that hardly, remotely resembles what is actually in the Bible.

Learned scholars in matters of God made a whole new batch of wording that they have control over, which does nothing to explain what the Bible says about God.

Maybe, just maybe it is not our job—in fact not possible—to explain God better than He explained Himself in His Word.
