 | | Forgiveness and Second Chances: Why do Christians withhold them? | | by texxmezz, Oct 14, 2006 | | Christians believe they are good at "forgive and forget" doctrine, but the reality proven once again with Mel Gibson is, we're not. We're even worse when it comes to giving a person a second chance. Doesn't this go against the Lord's statement in Matthew 18:21-22 about how many times we should forgive? Why do Christians refuse to forgive others who have haven't wronged them? Finally, what can children teach us about this subject. | | Comments(0) Liked It: 0 |

 | | Homeless shelters will teach you so much about your walk with Christ | | by texxmezz, Oct 14, 2006 | | Christians can learn a lot about their own walk with Christ inside a homeless shelter. It is when we're stripped of almost everything that God can use our experiences to relate to others who are worse off than us. Homeless shelters are also in desperate need the light of evangelism, giving those who are down and out hope their happiness doesn't come from their present circumstances, but from God's love and eternal promises in their hearts. | | Comments(0) Liked It: 0 |

 | | The American Church has nothing to complain about | | by texxmezz, Oct 13, 2006 | | The American Christian church likes to think it's under persecution, but the reality is, we're not...and we have nothing to complain about. It's time we realize exactly how well fed, protected and free we actually are. | | Comments(1) Liked It: 0 |

 | | Are you afraid to judge? | | by texxmezz, Oct 10, 2006 | | Many Christians are afraid to judge based on Matthew 7:1, but that's an incorrect interpretation. We are to judge our brother's sin (Matt 17) and are responsible to recognize false Christians (Matt 7). We are told we will judge (1 Cor 6), and are charged with the stewardship to keep the bride of Christ pure (Eph 5). Learn how to scripturally discern the truth about this sensitive subject many Christians fearfully view as taboo. | | Comments(0) Liked It: 0 |

 | | What’s a Christian Pilgrimage Really Worth? | | by texxmezz, Oct 10, 2006 | | Christians often long for the connection to a place of religious significance and therefore make pilgrimages, but what if that place you're going to continues to celebrate its pagan history? Read one person's account of trying to gain some insight by walking in the footsteps of the apostle Paul in modern day Greece. | | Comments(2) Liked It: 0 |
