#Galatians 1:10

[wiirocku]

Galatians 1:10 (CSB) - For am I now trying to persuade people, or God? Or am I striving to please people? If I were still trying to please people, I would not be a servant of Christ.

Nimrod

Likened to the bourgeoisie,

Peddler of the trinket truths,

He screams the most absurdity,

Founded on a pebble's root.

.

A tower set, to name himself,

Higher than the very God,

Beyond the reach of wave or sea,

While drowning in tyrannic sod.

.

We are the vast and mighty men,

Conquerors of dragon kind,

Saved from death to bite the hand,

As babblers of weakened mind.

.

We are the vast and mighty men,

Beyond the God who swept our dust,

To worship flesh who came before,

We are the flood's own impetus.

.

I am mighty, I am grand,

Proud of muddy bricks of man,

So weak to trust, strong in my lies,

Leading others to their demise.

.

Vengeance for the Devil's feast,

Heaven must approve my power,

The greatest height from mankind's least,

My Babylon became so dour.

.

A trinket peddler he lies at ends,

Words asunder, soul long defiled,

Noahic floods buried his sins,

His shovel beckoned, hate unbridled.

by Pastor Jack Wellman | The Bible says that the fear of man is a stumbling block and ends up as a snare to us (Proverbs 29:25). This is what kept many of the Jews in Jesus’ day from publicly professing belief in Him. A lot of people believed in Jesus, but they were afraid to say anything. They were more worried about the Pharisees finding out...

Obviously, I’m not trying to win the approval of people, but of God. If pleasing people were my goal, I would not be Christ’s servant.

"THAT CONTAINER IS LYING ABOUT ITS CONTENTS"

Matthew 7:15, “Be on your guard against false prophets; they come to you LOOKING LIKE SHEEP on the OUTSIDE, but on the INSIDE they are really like wild WOLVES.” (GNT) My two favorite seasons are Winter and Fall! Winter, because I love Christmas, snow, carols, decorations and the like. And Fall, because I love the colors, Thanksgiving, the start of the scent of fireplaces, but most of all,…

AN LDS WOLF IN THE FOLD?

What if I told you that much of the best Christian entertainment of the last several years is being used to convert professing Christians to Mormonism - to the tune of 450,000 in the last four years alone. Join the conversation on our blog!

Is Evangelical/Mormon Collaboration Blurring the Lines Between Orthodoxy and Heresy. What if I told you that much of the best Christian entertainment you’ve been enjoying over the last several years may not be entirely what it seems?  Would it surprise you to know that, for example, The Chosen came about in large part due to an LDS (Latter Day Saint – they prefer this term over “Mormon”) film…

I wonder if OP realizes just how close they were to what the Bible says.

The heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately wicked: who can know it? Jeremiah 17:9

As it is written, There is none righteous, no, not one: Romans 3:10

If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us. 1 John 1:8

He that saith he is in the light, and hateth his brother, is in darkness even until now. 1 John 2:9

Here's the clincher:

If ye know that he is righteous, ye know that every one that doeth righteousness is born of him. 1 John 2:29

Beloved, let us love one another: for love is of God; and every one that loveth is born of God, and knoweth God. He that loveth not knoweth not God; for God is love. 1 John 4:7-8

But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, Meekness, temperance: against such there is no law. Galatians 5:22-23 ("Kindness" may not be on the list, but there's several fruits of the Spirit that fill the same role.)

It's not about an "attempt." Altruism can ONLY come from God. Any kindness man tries to do on his own is still selfish. How many "kind" people do acts of kindness only because it makes them feel good?

Jesus didn't feel good about going to the cross- in fact, he was so torn up about it that he literally sweat blood- but He did it anyway, out of: a) devotion and obedience to His Father; and b) love for us. Sometimes love and obedience feel like pain and sorrow and fear and death. But if you love Jesus and The Father and have the Holy Spirit inside you, you'll do it anyway, because you can't not do it.

this has been said before but I feel like it is very important to view being kind as something you do rather than something that you are because all people have the capacity for meanness and cruelty and often use it inadvertently but the point is to change your behavior and your attitude and practice paying attention and being selfless and sincere and vulnerable and putting kindness and warmth into your actions and words instead of being like oh I value kindness and thus I am such a good person. like it’s about the attempt

Paul’s Vindication of His Apostleship

10 For am I now seeking the favor of men, or of God? Or am I striving to please men? For if I were still pleasing men, I wouldn't be a servant of Messiah. 11 But I make known to you, brothers, concerning the Good News which was preached by me, that it is not according to man. 12 For neither did I receive it from man, nor was I taught it, but it came to me through revelation of Yeshua the Messiah. 13 For you have heard of my way of living in time past in the Yehudim' religion, how that beyond measure I persecuted the assembly of God, and ravaged it. 14 I advanced in the Yehudim' religion beyond many of my own age among my countrymen, being more exceedingly zealous for the traditions of my fathers. 15 But when it was the good pleasure of God, who separated me from my mother's womb, and called me through his grace, 16 to reveal his Son in me, that I might preach him among the Goyim, I didn't immediately confer with flesh and blood, 17 nor did I go up to Yerushalayim to those who were apostles before me, but I went away into `Arav. Then I returned to Dammesek. — Galatians 1:10-17 | Hebrew Names Version (HNV) The Hebrew Names Version Bible is in the public domain Cross References: Isaiah 49:1; Isaiah 49:5; Jeremiah 9:14; Matthew 6:24; Matthew 15:2; Matthew 16:17; Acts 5:42; Acts 8:3; Acts 9:2; Acts 9:8; Acts 9:21; Romans 1:1; Romans 2:16; 1 Corinthians 2:10; 1 Corinthians 3:4; 1 Corinthians 11:23
