Psalm 119:1-11
“It’s about my heart. God is looking at my heart.” So if God is looking at your heart, what should He find?
“Blessed are the undefiled in the way, who walk in the law of the LORD. Blessed are they that keep his testimonies, and that seek him with the whole heart. They also do no iniquity: they walk in his ways. Thou hast commanded us to keep thy precepts diligently. O that...

Jesus and His Sabbath: Part 2
crushedglass:
“It is finished”(John 19:30).
Jesus, through His Sabbath miracles, demonstrated what the Sabbath is really about. It is a day for healing and restoration. Jesus intended for the Sabbath to call to mind God’s creative power. Thus, the Sabbath is the day when He frees the captives (Luke 4:31–37), makes the lame walk (Luke 13:10–17, John 5:1–9), and restores sight to the blind (John...

Jesus and His Sabbath: Part 1
crushedglass:
Books have been written, and are still being written, with the sole purpose of showing that Jesus, when here in the flesh, was pointing people away from the seventh-day Sabbath, either toward Sunday worship or (more commonly today) toward the idea that the seventh day has been superceded and replaced with a more generic and general “rest” in Christ.
Neither option, though, seems to...

I think our god isn't God if He fits inside our...
tayrobbins:
This verse of a song holds so much truth to it. Countless times, people have tried to fit God into a box. They’ve tried to take Him and everything He is and put it into one idea or fact. They’ve tried condensing His greatness into something that’s understandable. When in actuality, it’s not understandable. God will never fit inside our heads because He is so much bigger than that! I...

The Superiority of the Promise
crushedglass:
“ ‘He was in the assembly in the desert, with the angel who spoke to him on Mount Sinai, and with our fathers; and he received living words to pass on to us’ ” (Acts 7:38, NIV).
In Galatians 3:19, 20, Paul continues his train of thought about the law not nullifying the covenant of grace; this is important because, if the theology of his opponents were correct, the law would do just...

readingtheword:
I’ve known people to use the fact that the Bible was written at different times with different contexts, by different people in different places, as evidence for it being unreliable or untrue. But I would think that the fact that the Bible was written as such to attest to its credibility and its truth. That so many different people can write what they did, completely in their own...

Help for understanding...

Then I thought that maybe I should send it to someone and see how they feel about this bc I’m still a little shook. Either way here goes… (Please, don’t mind any grammatical errors and such, I decided to keep the same (for the most part) way that I typed it...

Prayer Request
aianekarla:
Please keep my home country, the Philippines, in your prayers. A magnitude 6.9 earthquake hit Negros Occidental. Houses have been buried, and lives lost. It is evident that Jesus’ second coming is quickly approaching. Please pray for God to comfort those who lost their friends/relatives, and for God to provide help/shelter/food for those who lost their homes.

thesavagesalad:
This was never meant to be a fun and enjoyable activity. It was never meant to be one of those “LOOK BEYOND OUR DIFFERENCES, WE’RE ALL THE SAME” kind of things.
Why?
Because racism isn’t a fun thing. And unfortunately, we live in a society where we are not treated as equals. AND IT FEELS AWFUL. To the commenters who are up in arms about the treatment of the one white girl...

Women struggling with porn and masturbation
unkaglen:
Anonymous asked: What about females that struggle with lust, pornography, and masturbation? I feel like it’s such a downplayed problem in our society and in our churches, but I know it’s a very real problem for me, and as a woman, I feel like there are limited resources out there. What would you say to a woman who struggles with this temptation/issue?

Mama
I buried my older cousin, my grandmother’s first grandchild earlier this month. Now I am sad to say that My aunt, Lydie E. Prudent passed away this morning on December 31, 2011. She is survived by her 3 children, her mother, 4 grand-children, 4 sisters, 2 neices, 1 nephew and plenty of cousins. I ask for prayer and support for my family in this time of sorrow.
I just don't know what to do anymore...
