1 Peter 2:23 [ESV] When HE was reviled, HE did not revile in return; when HE suffered, HE did not threaten, but continued entrusting HIMSELF to HIM WHO judges justly. #redflag

Grace Nuggets: Simple reminders of God’s great love for you.

[walkswithmyfather]

1 Peter 2:23-25 (NLT). “He did not retaliate when he was insulted, nor threaten revenge when he suffered. He left his case in the hands of God, who always judges fairly. He personally carried our sins in his body on the cross so that we can be dead to sin and live for what is right. By his wounds you are healed. Once you were like sheep who wandered away. But now you have turned to your Shepherd, the Guardian of your souls.”

“Free From Guilt” By In Touch Ministries:

“Since Jesus died on the cross for our sins, we can pursue God's will without the weight of guilt or shame.”

“Guilt can be defined as anxiety in one’s spirit over a deliberate, willful sin. We can trace this emotion all the way back to the garden of Eden. After Adam and Eve tasted the forbidden fruit, they felt ashamed of their nakedness and hid themselves (Genesis 3:10).

In ancient Israel, people would “pay” for their wrong by sacrificing an animal’s life. Today we no longer need such a brutal way to release our guilt; God has provided a better solution. He sent His Son Jesus to make a way for us to be redeemed and brought into a right relationship with Him. Our Savior made atonement for us with His precious blood. And—praise God!—Jesus rose to life again, conquering death and sin.

The truth is, every one of us has sinned and was separated from God (Romans 3:23). However, we can be liberated from death and guilt by accepting Jesus’ free gift and committing our life to Him. Of course, in our imperfect human state, we won’t be perfectly sinless. But our loving heavenly Father will continue to forgive His children (Ephesians 1:7).

Jesus’ sacrifice gives us freedom from shame and death—plus the promise of eternity with God. Though we are promised forgiveness, our gratitude and love for our Savior should spur us on to repentance, obedience, and service to the Lord.”

Ok, But... but they don't. Spirits exist true enough.. and/but if they are not spirits of Light, spirits of God; the Almighty Creator of the heavens and the earth.. -then you're merely worshipping your own corruption unto sin; idolizing false entities that lie to you, and steal your efforts to usurously manipulate and impede your truly, God-given purpose.

I can testify that there is One True God because first and foremost all signs point to YES in contrast to this world of lies -and because I have experienced God at work in my life firsthand, often. Daily, even...

You're not wrong for wanting civility between devout spiritualists and faithful servants.. but there is a natural truth to all things and simply put-

~In the beginning, God separated the darkness from the Light..

All that has followed has merely exemplified the fact that there is truly a marked difference between the darkness and the Light, and just how different our lives become when we worship one over the other . .

To wit- I was not always this enflamed for my Lord, but rather in my youth I was fiercely agnostic and even revelatious in my childish behaves.. But all that I was raised to be by this world has since led me to discover such blatant lies, callous deception, and illusory facade.. and at one point I honestly wanted to end it all, until Jesus himself plucked me out of my sorrow and despair to build in me a fiery hope and a love which continues to build within me, flowing abundantly to this day.

Even if you don't buy into all that Jesus taught and did for us all, millenia ago.. Know that I, yes even I am living proof that God can make all things new and restore the broken. He gave me life when I wished for death. He held me close when all my loved ones conspired against, and abandoned me. And He has just now inspired me to digest your post in its entirety, understand your sentiments and predisposed bias untoward one such as me, and subsequently respond in the Spirit of Truth anyway, that HIS love may be acknowledged and shown unto you, through me, even if just to say Jesus loves you and is waiting for you to ask Him to come home into your heart to bestow on you His finished work and to wash you clean.

The price has been paid already. The work is already done. This is Historical fact alone... but it is our faith in God, and earnest belief in His finished work that elevates us to walk in His love, and further elevate the frequencies of this world simply by existing in it in the embrace of the Holy Spirit.

You may not even read this because it's so long, but God is patient. God is good in all things.. and when you are ready to reclaim your purpose and step into your birthright granted to you by the Almighty, then your journey to the heart shall truly unfold in glorious and miraculous ways you couldn't have even imagined on your own.

Thus, I pray His many blessings and a hedge of protection & understanding upon you that you may grow in your own bountiful ways from this interact- by the authority vested in me by the Holy Spirit, and as always- in Jesus' mighty name, amen. 🙏

Hot take, apparently, but genuinely harassing or insulting anyone's religion is not ok.

Criticizing religious institutions, proselytizing, extremism, or horrible behaviors/beliefs done in the name of a religion? YES! Totally. That should be criticized.

Unpromptedly popping up on random posts by religious folks to say anything along the lines of "god isn't real", "the pagan gods are fake", "there is only one true religion", "[any religious group] are stupid/dangerous/barbaric" -- NO.

It's rude. It's unnecessary. And sometimes, especially in the case of minorities or oppressed groups, it's outright hateful. Theres nothing helpful, funny, or cool about randomly insulting one of the most personal aspects of a persons life. Unless it's invited or warranted, stfu.

Church notes - 28th July 2024

28th 1 Peter 2:13 - 25 Faithfulness in the face of persecution. vs 13 - 17 Human authority is under God's authority. Honor human authority. Fear God.

vs 15 Do good in God's behalf.

Who grind's on you? Do good to them. Show them God's light.

Galatians 2:20.

God's calling to you is to suffer. You will have troubles in this world.

Acts 14:22 1 Thessalonians 3:3 Philippians 1:29

Not mindless pain. It is suffering for the sake of Christ.

Psalm 23 The rod and staff comforting is what we should be focused on, not the valley of the shadow of death.

vs 20

It is for His Name's sake.

By nature we are self centred, but by focusing on God we can stand the world's waves.

God's example to you is Jesus.

The suffering servant. Matthew 16:13 -20

He committed no sin. He was authentic, forgiving, even on the Cross. He entrusted himself to Him who judges justly.

Psalm 121

Can We Have Eternal Impact in a Temporary World?

In every generation, men strive for greatness. Every generation wants to be known forever, to have eternal impact. From King Ozymandias, to Hitler, to Mohammed Ali, men have wanted to be immortalized as (and use your best Ali voice here, or at least, Billy Crystal DOING Mohammed Ali) “the Greatest… of ALL TIME!” Athletic contests are said to be “making history”, and athletes are called “legends”.…

Eternal Assurance: Trusting in Christ Alone

Back in the early 90’s I faced a crisis as I held to a works-based salvation and constantly lived in fear of my eternal destiny. I had no assurance of my salvation because I never knew if I’d performed enough good works to validate my salvation. It was a terrible place to be. The solution came when I began to study the Scriptures carefully, stopped looking at myself, and fixed my “eyes on Jesus,…

The Surprising Story of Balaam's Talking Ass

The Story of how Balaam received a message from God is pretty unusual, and if you haven’t read it before, right now is a great time to do it. If you’ve read it, and it left you scratching your head a little, it’s certainly worth a deeper look.

Play on other Podcast Apps You were never meant to carry cares yourself. You can choose to keep your problems or cast them onto Him. Giving them to Jesus. The Lord is divine. His ways are divine. His solutions are divine and supernatural. So we must accept that He will not solve our issues the way we think He will. This in itself should give us confidence that there is a way that our issues can…
