This recent attack during a concert and at a cafe would make many think that this was random, but far from it. With France leading the way in airstrikes on ISIS in Raqqa, Syria, it was more of a revenge attack. Though history shows that the French seem to be rather resilient, but it seems that everyone forgets who ISIS is, who the terrorists were in the recent shooting/bombing in Paris -- devout followers of Mohammad the "prophet". In the video below, David Wood explains why the terrorists did what they did.<br />

Now with ISIS threatening to repeat its actions in Washington, DC, and NYC (my home city), I would like to say that those the NYPD states that they have no "creditable threats", please still be careful.

<br />
I seem to have the amazing luck of running into these "Free Palestine" protests in Times Square. I ran into one last year while meeting up with a friend for a prayer night at her church downtown and I happened to walk towards Times Sq to take the train. Lo, and behold, Friday, Sept 18th, I run into another one on the intersection of 41st St & 7th Ave. I chose not to engage in debate, nor ask questions with my large, 10th anniversary CUFI Summit tote bag. I just took some footage and went on my way.<br />
<br />
Now, my question is, where's all the anti-ISIS protests? Where are all the demonstrations against persecution of Christians? Oh, but everyone is A-OK with throwing Israel under the bus for nothing once in a while. But it's not like this is a first for Israel. Anti-semitic people like these have been trampling on her flag ever since Israel was reunified in May of 1948. To Israel, vile acts like are just another day in the life of being God's chosen people & His holy land.<br />
<br />
If you're still on the fence as to who's right, in your research, be sure the facts are verified.<br />

At the same time, us Christians have to love ALL people as Jesus does.Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03252885931517986660noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7358295691976701100.post-89203380962072769422015-02-08T21:49:00.001-08:002015-02-08T21:50:36.089-08:00CNN: Fort Hood victims to be awarded Purple Hearts<div class="tr_bq">
I couldn't help but to rejoice I was when I randomly say this headline. I happened to see it at work and did my best to contain my joy.</div>
<br />
For those who don't know about the Fort Hood shootings in 2009, here's some cliff notes:<br />
<br />
<br />
<ul>
<li>Army psychiatrist Nidal Hassan opened fire on the base, killing XX people</li>
<li>Soon after the attacks, President Obama dismissed it as "work place violence" when Hassan was shouting <i>ALLAHU AKBAR</i> while shooting. </li>
<li>Hassan's business card read "Soldier of Allah"</li>
</ul>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
There were a number of other glaring clues that the attack was, indeed, Islamic-driven, not just "work place violence".</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
All in all, I'm just happy that these brave soldiers finally received what they deserved. I salute them.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Below is an excerpt from the <span id="goog_1589000033"></span>CNN <span id="goog_1589000034"></span>story:</div>
<blockquote>
<br />
(<a href="http://www.cnn.com/2015/02/06/politics/fort-hood-purple-hearts/index.html" target="_blank">CNN</a>) -- The U.S. Army will begin awarding Purple Hearts to those killed or wounded in the 2009 shooting at Fort Hood, Texas. </blockquote>
<blockquote>
Secretary of the Army John McHugh announced the decision in a statement Friday, calling the honor "an appropriate recognition of their service and sacrifice."<br />
The Army will also award the civilian equivalent of the Purple Heart, the Defense of Freedom Medal, to non-military victims. </blockquote>
<blockquote>
"The Purple Heart's strict eligibility criteria had prevented us from awarding it to victims of the horrific attack at Fort Hood," McHugh said, but noted that recent legislation has allowed them to move forward in recognizing the victims. </blockquote>
<blockquote>
The decision was made possible by an amendment to the 2015 National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA), sponsored by Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas), which expanded eligibility for the Purple Heart to include troops killed in an attack where "the individual or entity was in communication with the foreign terrorist organization before the attack," and where "the attack was inspired or motivated by the foreign terrorist organization."<br />
"It's long past time to call the Fort Hood attack what it was: radical Islamic terrorism," Cruz said in a statement in December, after the NDAA was passed. "And, this recognition for Fort Hood terrorist victims is overdue. The victims and their families deserve our prayers and support, and this legislation rightly honors them for defending our nation in the face of a heinous act of terror."</blockquote>

and “things aren’t always what they seem”. Those two phrases cannot be truer
today. There's much deception in this world. Even worse, there's deception
within the Church. With so many Christian denominations, which one is right?
Granted, no single church congregation is perfect, for we are all human at the
end of the day, but there are churches at least strive to do their very best to
stand strong in the Lord.<br />
<div class="MsoNormal">
<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
As it says in <b>1 John 4:1</b>, King James Version,<i> </i><i>Beloved, believe
not every spirit, but try the spirits whether they are of God: because many
false prophets are gone out into the world.</i> With the way the world is today, we cannot be so
naïve, especially when it comes to spiritual matters. As aforementioned, within
Christianity, there are so many denominations, which one is true? To avoid
division, we cannot put the particular denomination that a believer associates
with to be above all others. Jesus warned against this when one of His
disciples told Him that they forbade someone who was casting out demons in
Jesus’ name [<a href="https://bible.com/1/luk.9.49.kjv" target="_blank"><b>Luke 9:49</b></a>]. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
In <b>Acts 17</b>,
while Paul was in ministry, he went to preach in a church of Berea and the
congregants were wise in verifying his speech by searching the Scriptures (Old
Testament). <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
As Jesus
also did forewarn, that we have to be wise as serpents but harmless as doves [<a href="https://bible.com/1/mat.10.16.kjv" target="_blank"><b>Matthew 10:16</b></a>] because there are many false prophets out in the world. I’ve come to
believe that it’s worse for someone’s heart to be turned away from God but in
whatever that person is doing still believes that they’re serving God than for
one to be turned away and convert to other religions all together. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
We even
have to test what is preached in our own churches. We have to be aware of
things like “prosperity gospel” and “replacement theory”. Prosperity gospel is
teaching that one just has to believe and tithe a whole lot to “get rich
quickly” in a sense, that all of one’s natural needs will be met through faith.
The prosperity gospel’s underlining message is that one’s natural needs, namely
money/wealth & health, are above worshiping God for who He is; putting
natural/earthly blessings above spiritual blessings.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Sadly, I
believe that all parties involved in prosperity gospel are victims: the
congregation for tithing & offering in order to obtain blessing above
having an intimate relationship with the Lord and the “pastors” that teach on
this. The congregants are the obvious victims because they are being fed a
false doctrine and believing that faith alone will get them rich. The pastors
are victims in a spiritual sense. Jesus said that what comes out of a man
defiles the man [<a href="https://bible.com/1/mat.15.20.kjv" target="_blank"><b>Matthew 15:20</b></a>; <a href="https://bible.com/1/mrk.7.15.kjv" target="_blank"><b>Mark 7:15</b></a>] and therefore are defiling
themselves and risking eternal damnation. Their preaching of “prosperity” ends
up feeding their own and not their sheep. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
We’ll get
to replacement theory in another blog.<o:p></o:p></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Now, maybe
you’re church isn’t preaching on this but sometimes what you hear in a Sunday
morning sermon just doesn’t sit right with your spirit. Don’t be afraid to do
some biblical research on it or even ask the preacher on it.<o:p></o:p></div>

</div>
<div style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;">
<img height="207" src="http://www.omsgsa.org/wp-content/uploads/2013/04/true_repentance.jpg" width="400" /></div>
<br />
<br />
<br />
What is repentence? Repentence is asking to be forgiven of your sins; it's coming to terms with them and true repentence resutls in NEVER going back to that sin. People would often ask for forgiveness, and are forgivene, but then would fall again. That doesn't happen with true repentence, which results in newness of life (<a href="http://bible.com/1/act.11.18.kjv" target="_blank">Acts 11:18</a>). It's the goodness of God that leads us to that repentence (<a href="http://bible.com/1/rom.2.4.kjv" target="_blank">Romans 2:4</a>), since He is just a God of love & mercy.<br />
<br />
Though repentence is a New Testament doctrine, the best Old Testament expample us <a href="https://www.bible.com/bible/1/psa.51.kjv" target="_blank">Psalm 51</a>, where David repents for his ilicit relation with Bathsheba, the wife of Uriah the Hittite, one of his best generals, Those events can be read in <a href="https://www.bible.com/bible/1/2sa.11.kjv" target="_blank">2 Samual 11</a>.Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03252885931517986660noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7358295691976701100.post-17683390165676236282014-12-01T15:58:00.002-08:002014-12-01T15:58:44.586-08:00Being Thankful<br />
<div style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;">

<br />
Hope everyone enjoyed their Thanksgiving!<br />
<br />
Thanksgiving isn't about turkey, stuffing, or food coma. We should be grateful for the food we have, but that's not the focus. We should just be thankful for what we have, no matter how little it may be. Let's not only be thankful for our materials things, but also for the fact that we have life, that we have salvation through Jesus! Salvation through Jesus Christ alone is the most important thing to be grateful for.<br />
<br />
When we pray to the LORD our God, we have to enter His presence with thanksgiving (<a href="https://bible.com/1/psa.100.4.kjv" target="_blank">Ps. 100:4</a>). Praise Him in every situation as well (<a href="https://bible.com/1/1th.5.18.kjv" target="_blank">1 Thess. 5:18</a>). And don't just be thankful at the end of Nov, but everyday be thankful for His grace & mercy, which is new every morning (<a href="https://bible.com/1/lam.3.22-23.kjv" target="_blank">Lam. 3:22-23</a>). Take some time out everyday to thank Him for life, for love. It can be a simple prayer of thanks or it can be a song. The first song in the Bible was the Israelites praising YHWH for delivering them from the bondage of Egypt (<a href="https://www.bible.com/bible/1/exo.15.kjv" target="_blank">Ex. 15</a>). It was sung literally after the waters closed upon Pharaoh and his army. They simply couldn't help themselves after receiving this type of salvation. That was a foreshadowing of the salvation Christ would bring to the people of Israel. We were once oppressed and now we had been delivered from that oppression. What's <i>not</i> to be thankful for?Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03252885931517986660noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7358295691976701100.post-52826654149182564152014-11-13T08:34:00.000-08:002014-11-13T08:34:04.326-08:00One WTC Opened for Business<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

God bless! I have a CBN profile and after looking at it again since two or three years ago, I found something I blogged that I also want to share with my Blogger audience :) </div>
<br />
<br />
<blockquote>
<i>As we are now in the month of October, you see department stores' seasonal sections filled with Halloween decorations, costumes, etc. <b>Halloween</b> is the second most celebrated holiday in the US (Christmas being the first). <u>In a nation founded by Christians, how did this statstic come about?</u> Why do so many parents allow their children to ring people's doorbells, after dark, and hold out small baskets or bags to get candy from strangers? Parents, especially Christian parents, I encourage you to NOT allow your children to trick-o-treat. Don't even dress them up. <span style="background-color: yellow;">Halloween has a very pagan and demonic background, originating from the witches in England and pilgramming here, along with persecuted Christians</span>. I have no children, nor am I married yet, but I know this is something I would not do with my children. Instead, I would like to teach them to pray on the 30th & 31st of Oct - praying for those children trick-o-treating, for their parents who may or may not be with them, and any youth who plan to reak havoc on their neighborhood.</i></blockquote>
<br />
<blockquote>
<i>I also encourage my brethren in Christ to 1) do research on the history of Halloween, because we cannot defeat an enemy we don't know much about, and 2) to gather with a few people in your church and pray for trick-o-treaters, children, parents, youth, belivers or not, that their eyes will be opened to celebrating this holiday of idolatry.</i></blockquote>
<br />
I did a little more research on Halloween, like does the Bible really condemn it. Well, within the Torah, it is forbidden to consult with mediums or those with "familiar spirits". That particular Scripture was pointed out to me while I was attending a Pentacostal church. I had stopped attending my original home church for a while and once I learned about Halloween, I looked at my original church much differently, knowing they hold alternative "harvest parties". I had also recently looked up Halloween on this site called <a href="http://gotquestions.org/" target="_blank">gotquestions.org</a>, which answers a lot of questions that seem to be often asked by baby & mature believers alike. So, when it comes to <a href="http://www.gotquestions.org/Christians-celebrate-Halloween.html" target="_blank">Halloween</a>, we first have to understand its pagan origins and let the Spirit shows us what we should do.Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03252885931517986660noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7358295691976701100.post-25431135984931754542014-10-22T08:41:00.000-07:002014-10-22T08:41:13.603-07:00How to win a Muslim for Christ<div dir="ltr">
There's no specific way to win anyone for Christ. We just have to preach His word and display His love. But if you want to win someone of another religion, such as Islam, you would have to know a thing or two about it -- namely, it "holy" text, the Qur'an.<br />
<br />
Our brother in Christ does a great job in proving to the Muslim who questioned this brother's preaching of Jesus Christ of Nazareth is the true Savior. The Christian brother quotes both the Bible & Qur'an by stating that only Jesus has the ability to atone for man's sins, being sinless, while Mohammad was sinner like everyone else.<br />
<br />
Enjoy & God bless :)<br />

<a href="http://www.rethink911.org/">Rethink911.org</a> has this ad campaign going on in Times Square at 42nd St and 8th Ave about World Trade Center tower 7. I know man saw the Twin Towers fall either in person or on TV, while WTC 7 was a televised collapse, being it was 5:20 in the afternoon. This I saw on TV, at the tender age of 12, and instant with what these folks are saying. I'm just spreading the truth about that particular building as they are.</div>

<b><i>L'shana tova</i></b>!!! It is now the Jewish year of 5775. The year 5775 also happens to be a year of the Shemitah, or a year of release. What is that, you ask? The <b>Shemitah</b> is the Sabbath Year (7th year) outlined in <b><a href="https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Leviticus+25%3A1-7&version=NKJV" target="_blank">Leviticus 25:1-7</a></b> and <b><a href="https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Deuteronomy+15%3A1-6&version=NKJV" target="_blank">Deuteronomy 15:1-6</a></b>. During that year, the land would rest, meaning no one was to sow nor reap. No one would have to do so because God would give such abundance the previous year, there would be plenty to last for a few years (<b><a href="https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Leviticus+25%3A21-22&version=NKJV" target="_blank">Leviticus 25:21-22</a></b>). Why? Because He's YHWH-jireh, El Shaddai. Not only was it a rest for the land, but also debts were forgiven and Hebrew bondservants would be get free. But, <i>what had happened was</i> there were 70 Shemitahs that were never executed, which, along with all other of ancient Israel's sins, resulted in their captivity Babylon (then eventually Persia) for 70 years so the land could rest. Israel had be urged many times to repent, but that's another blog.</div>

" border="0" src="http://g.christianbook.com/dg/product/cbd/f400/981932.jpg" height="200" width="133" /></a>But why does the <b>Shemitah</b> matter now? Because it's God's sovereign law. But what does this mean for America? When America was founded, Washington and the other founding fathers dedicated this country to God Almighty, as Solomon did with Israel once the first temple was finished. Washington dedicated the nation on the very ground we were attached on <b>Sept 11, 2001</b>. That happened to be towards the end of a <b>Shemitah</b>. This Sabbath year actually ended <b>Sept 17, 2001</b>, when the markets plummeted and people lost money, just a week after folks at the New York Stock Exchange slowly started coming back to work. All debts would be "released" and forgiven, right? Then, the same thing happened, but worse in <b>Sept 29, 2008</b>, the end of that proceeding <b>Shemitah</b>, what's known as the Recession of 2008. Why these Sept dates? Because the Jewish calendar is the one to follow when studying this. But these dates were <b>29 Elul 5761</b> and <b>5768</b>, respectively. </div>

Not the prayer where s/he is reciting something to God or for others to see and hear, not the prayer that asks God for something, and that's it, but the prayer that brings spiritual intimacy with God. Prayer should be a conversation between you and God; it's a two-way street. Prayer is the spiritual communication that binds and strengthens your relationship with God, as natural communication keeps earthly relationships strong.<br />
<br />
We, as believers and children of the Most High God, must make time to spend with Him each and every day. This, I know I'm guilty of not doing lately. This conviction came upon me while reading a Bible plan via The Bible App (developed by YouVersion) called Prayers of Jesus. Though Jesus is the Alpha and Omega, King of kings and Lord of lords, He still needed prayer during His earthly ministry. He often "went to a private place and prayed", away from the multitudes, and away from His discilpes. Not only did He need His space, sorta speak, He needed to spend time with the Father.<br />
<br />
We all need to spend time with out Heavenly Father. Let's make a point to do so every day.Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03252885931517986660noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7358295691976701100.post-12404886055802135252014-07-28T07:18:00.001-07:002014-07-28T07:18:33.596-07:00"FREE PALESTINE" Protest in NYC<div class="OutlineElement Ltr SCX137785775" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 8px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">

The suffereing we have in this present life nothing compared to the glory of heaven (<a href="https://bible.com/1/rom.8.17-18.kjv" target="_blank">Rom. 8:17-18</a>). When someone is ill, are we to pray for healing? Yes. Are we to be all that <a href="https://bible.com/1/isa.61.1-3.kjv" target="_blank">Isaiah 61:1-3</a> describes? Absolutely. But, at the same time, who are we to go against God's will? If someone is ill and it is for the glory of God for that person to be healed either immidetely or a month or a year from that time of pray, then we have to be the ones to spiritually discern that.</div>
<br />
<br />
<br />
No matter what's going on, let us just focus on Him; on building our relationship with the Almighty Father. He uses trials and tribulations for His children to grow closer to Him, as they are a test of faith, and we can call the blessings/promises of God "side effects", if you will. We just have to focus our heart & mind on the Creator.<br />
<br />
Persecution is a prime example of these trials. Jesus said it Himself in <a href="https://bible.com/1/luk.21.12,17.kjv" target="_blank">Luke 21:12, 17</a> that we will be persecuted for His name's sake. Not that we may, but that we will. This fact is reaffirmed in <a href="https://bible.com/1/2ti.3.12.kjv" target="_blank">2 Timothy 3:12</a> and Peter adds to this in his first epistle, <a href="https://bible.com/1/1pe.4.16.kjv" target="_blank">4:16</a>, that whoever "suffers as a Christian, let him not be ashamed; but let him glorify God on this behalf." Persecution can be open, meaning a natural manifestation of the spiritual war like what's happening in the Middle East, <a href="http://discover-thetruth.blogspot.com/2013/09/pray-for-persecuted-church.html">North Africa</a>, Asia & Southeast Asia now, "religious liberty" court cases in the West, or even just our battle with our indwelling sin. Focusing and strengthening our relationship with our Savior will help us stand in His armor (<a href="https://bible.com/1/eph.6.12.kjv" target="_blank">Eph. 6:12</a>).<br />
<br />
And, to close, let's not go looking to be persecuted.Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03252885931517986660noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7358295691976701100.post-737072808933084382014-06-09T09:30:00.000-07:002014-06-09T09:30:26.268-07:00My Dream is to reach out to Muslims for ChristI dreamt last night that I was in some cafe (possibly a Starbucks), where there were a few Muslim girls, and two in particular stood out to me -- they were reading Bibles! The two girls, each looking about 10 & 17 years old, had different colored <i>hijabs</i>, one dark pink to red and the other light blue. I started talking to the younger and ask her either why she was reading the Bible or if she knew who Jesus was. From there, I started to tell her about the salvation that Jesus offered for us on the cross. Then I looked over to the other girl, sitting at another table, but this time her <i>hijab</i> was off, around her neck, with her curly blond hair out and hanging over the scarf that was around her neck. I started a conversation with her about Jesus, as well, and then I woke up.<br />
<br />
Ever since I started reading about Islam and researching the "Islamization of the West", I grew a fondness to reach the average Muslim-American, which I'm sure are mostly moderate, with the gospel. I've begun to believe that the only way to combat Islam rising in the West, after getting the word out about it, was to bring the gospel to any Muslim who would litsen, any Muslim who is searching for truth. So many of them have come to know Christ by seeing Him in a dream/vision, a Christian telling them about His everlasting love, or both by one way confirming the other.<br />
<br />
The truth is, there are Muslims out there that are genuine people -- just wanted to live out their lives like everyone else, to be happy. We can't label them all as "terrorist". Granted, the vast majority of the world's terrorists are Muslim, but the vast majority of Muslims are terrorists.<br />
<br />
Therefore, if you, as a believer & redeemed of the Lord, are asked by a Muslim about the truth of Christ, lovingly tell them. Display Christ and rememeber, we love Him because He loved us first (1 John 4:19).<br />
<br />

1 Thessalonians 5:15 NKJV<br />
<br />
This verse really spoke to me this morning. In a world where one takes vengence on another for a wrong-doing, even within the Church sometimes, you probably would ask yourself, <i>where is the love in forgiveness?</i> That's why it's more important every day to show the love of Christ. Let us not render evil for evil, but show love & forgiveness to those who have wronged you, just as Christ has forgiven us. Whether that person has asked for your forgiveness or not, hold no grudge. Jesus did say that if we cannot forgive another person, He will not forgive us.Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03252885931517986660noreply@blogger.com0New York, NY, USA40.7056308 -73.978003540.3204428 -74.6234505 41.0908188 -73.3325565tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7358295691976701100.post-33724449917832158772014-04-10T10:58:00.000-07:002014-04-10T10:58:34.629-07:00Who's the Terrorist?I read in the amNY paper this morning, then again on DNAInfo.com, that a Muslim teen girl was threatened and spat upon while riding the Q88 bus to school Tuesday morning. Her bag accidently brushed up against a middle-aged, white man, who then proceeded to call her "terrorist". To him, her hijab was a dead giveaway. What makes this situation even worse was that no one bothered to stop him. Who's the terrorist in this situation?<br />
<br />
Reading that this morning gave me a flashback of watching a YouTube video of a social experiment performed by Yousef Saleh Erakat a.k.a <a href="https://www.youtube.com/user/fouseyTUBE" target="_blank">fouseyTUBE</a>. It was done this past Dec and ever since I saw it, I could imagine what would happen if that social experiment was done in my home city of NYC. Well, this news story shows that such an experiment isn't needed.<br />
<br />
If you'd like to watch the experiment, it's below.<br />

I'm troubled by the fact that many Christians think that God is just going to take care of everything and they can just sit back. That isn't always the case, though. Yes, there will be situation where there is nothing we can humanly do to change it, but many lack the wisdom to discern when those situations arise. For example, someone may have inoperable cancer where doctors can no nothing, where it's out of human hands. Praying for healing, believing for that healing, and walking as if you have been healed will bring the healing. That is the spiritual active part of having faith for something to happen. We all can have that spiritually-active faith but when it comes to situations like finding a job in a slow economy or a married couple trying to have a child, one needs to have that active faith but spiritually and naturally. One cannot pray for a job and NOT look for one online, in the classified in the newspaper or even applying in-person, resume in hand. One cannot pray that s/he passes his/her final for their Master's WITHOUT studying. A married couple cannot pray for a child WITHOUT being physically intimate (i.e., Abraham & Sarah) and/or looking into adoption.<br />
<br />
While praying and believing for a miracle is great, there's an underlining factor -- believing in the One who gives the miracle. Many believe on the name of Jesus of Nazareth as Savior but don't always walk in His ways in their daily lives, just on Sundays. One cannot save the souls of the household, workplace, etc., if one does not live in Christ (meaning following His teachings). One cannot say to another: "hey, can I tell you about Jesus?" when they aren't even rooted in Jesus themselves. Passive faith in Jesus is praising Him in church on Sundays (if you have the desire to go) but being angry and miserable, neither praying nor reading the Bible Monday through Saturday. Active faith in Jesus is praising Him in church on Sundays, including while you're getting ready to go, on the way there, and when you leave, AS WELL AS living in His joy & love while praying and reading His word (and doing what it says) Monday through Saturday. Think about that phrase "actions speak louder than words". If you want someone to come to faith in Jesus, let that person see your actions and joy as a true worshiper of Christ and tell them what He had saved you from. If you wish to have others in your household to know the Savior, be sure your actions DO speak louder than your words.<br />
<br />
Now I just want to leave you with this: <a href="http://bible.com/1/rom.12.2.kjv" target="_blank">Romans 12:2</a> says "do not be conformed to this world, but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, so that ye may prove what is the good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God." Psalms says "as a man thinks in his heart, so is he." The Bible also says to "put on the mind of Christ.:" Therefore, if we are to think and ponder on His ways constantly, we are transformed in Him. Let us also "walk by faith and not by sight," meaning, in a way, to walk with our faith in Jesus and not by what we see in this world. You will not only discover the truth about yourself but also of Christ Jesus. Call upon Him and He will show you (<a href="http://bible.com/1/jer.33.3.kjv" target="_blank">Jer. 33:3</a>).<br />
<br />
God Bless!<br />

/></a>I just want to thank those who kept the true meaning of Christmas this year by celebrating the birth of our Lord & Savior Jesus. May God bless you all for keeping the CHRIST in CHRISTMAS.<br />
<br />
We starting saying in my church "Mercy Christmas" because God showed mercy on us that day by the birth of His only begotten Son. Jesus knew that He came to this earth to suffer, but it was to suffer for our sins. He knew what would happen 33 years down the line. Jesus came to complete a mission, and He did just that. He came down to save us from our sins, from the evil one who had control over our lives. Jew and Gentile alike, He loved us so much that though we were sinners, He died for us (Rom. 5:8). Let's stop trampling people over for those crazy sales in the mall as the "after Christmas" sales come upon us and just show the love, grace, and mercy unto others that Christ showed unto us at His birth, ministry, death, and resurrection.<br />
<br />
Mercy Christmas!<br />

I know I walked by it many times but didn't really notice it until Wed (10/16) night when I took this photo. In fact, it was this poem that caught my eye. Sept 11th 2001 was indeed a wake up call to return to God -- both for the nation as a whole and for individuals. I was too young to understand that at the time, but I now know how much of a wake up call it is -- that the nation has yet to answer. Sure, many flocked to churches in the weeks and months following the terror attack, but not all stayed faithful to God these 12 years past.<br></span><br><br>Time to wake up, <br>America.<br>

width="200" /></a>On Aug 20th, I read in a local NYC paper that Al Jazeera America had become a new channel on cable, airing via companies like DirecTV, AT&T U-verse, Comcast and Verizon FiOS. Turns out, after only a few hours of being on the air, Al Jazeera America loses a huge chunk of its major advertisers and has been left with a handful of non-profits. U-verse even dropped the channel all together!<br />
<br />
If you don't know much about Al Jazeera, see my previous blog <a href="http://discover-thetruth.blogspot.com/2013/05/al-jazeera-exposed-must-see.html">here</a>. (The YouTube video I had embedded in this post has been taken down.)<br />
<br />
When I saw the list of cable companies that would air Al Jazeera America, I wasn't surprised when I didn't see Time Warner Cable on that list. I was in fact quite glad. Other than cutting off CBS recently, TWC cut off CurrentTV in Dec 2012 when Al Gore, who created the channel some 5 or 6 years ago, sold to the Al Jazeera network, who is based out of Doha, Qatar. Al Jazeera is rather anti-American and anti-Semitic.<br />

It grips our lives more than you think. It shapes the things we avoid - avoid to do something, to say something (to someone, or just thinking out loud), to go some place. <br />
<br />
Shame could have been caused by something you did, voluntarily or involuntarily, or something that happened to you that was out of your control. <br />
<br />
Shame keeps you in the dark, keeps you from enjoying life.<br />
<br />
Shame causes doubt, causes fear, causes depression.<br />
<br />
Shame makes you feel exposed -- everyone knows your wrong. It is a thick, black veil -- thicker than a Saudi woman's veil -- that you wish you wore 24/7. You wish you could hide in plain sight.<br />
<br />
Shame keeps you from seeking help; it makes you think you're alone. It makes you feel unaccepted.<br />
<br />
How does one get rid of shame? Admit the wrong? Yes. Ask for forgiveness? Yes. What if the person won't forgive? God will. When all else fails, He's there. You may not know it, feel Him there, or even believe it, but He's there. He loves us too much to see us down & out. I am feeling every bit of shame as I write this. I'll be honest: I've lost much of my faith. It comes back here and there, but it's not constant. But all really one needs is that mustard seed to move that doubt of God accepting us through His only begotten Son, Jesus Christ. Most of us believers struggle with their emotions when Satan throws bad situation and circumstances are thrown at us. Keep fighting the good fight of faith.<br />
<br />
I ask for your prayers as I go through this trialing time.Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03252885931517986660noreply@blogger.com0
