善良-第一步驟,愛城

真相的品格

知恩報恩-在生命的慈善,她去世了,甚至沒有錢安葬,現在所愛的人希望能夠有足夠的支付方面的服務-作者:Mike托爾森,休斯敦紀事報,2010年1月30日,上午07時21分

如果您已在任何基督教教會,可能你聽到這個詞“走在愛。”但是否走在愛? 凡沒有收到它的定義? 而且我們真的知道愛? 根據神的話語,神就是愛 - 約翰一書 4:7-9說:

7親愛的,讓我們彼此相愛,因為愛是神,大家誰愛是從神生的,並且認識神。 8他不愛誰不知道上帝,因為上帝就是愛。 9在此神的愛表現,對我們來說,上帝派他的獨生子到世上,我們可能會經受住他。

見,問題是,我們期望世界和一切在它的愛,滿足情感和生理需要。 我們看電影和電視節目或閱讀書籍,虛構試圖佈局良好的愛與浪漫場景一定吸引力的情緒和肉體,但似乎從來沒有達到在現實生活中 - 為什麼?

一個真正的真相愛城 - 一個可以整合到一個男人和女人的關係,或對愛將走在其他人 - 沒有基礎,情感或肉體 /身體。 真正的愛情開始時,我們的心是由什麼改變,改變上帝創造的愛 - 這就是為什麼他是愛! 偉大的事情是,當你閱讀有關妹妹瑪吉的生活故事裡,跳躍的是,她知道,或者至少必須知道這愛走路,上帝已注定了我們,因為她的一套完美的例子由她的工作。 哥林多前書 13:3,說:

雖然我賜給我的所有商品養活窮人,儘管我把我的身體被燒傷,但沒有愛,我也沒有什麼利潤。

你看,姐姐瑪吉可以做所有的作品,並給她所有她不得不照顧那些不幸的,或者需要什麼,她不得不放棄,但沒有愛 - 對上帝的愛 - 我真的不相信我們會聽到或看到她的這篇文章。 為什麼? 缺乏愛不強迫他人一步,並呼籲給予適當的人喜歡她,尊重並支付全額的葬禮。 如果她所有的,她沒有,也沒有愛,沒有人會做這種事的尊重。 國家或地方政府可以處理事物,就沒有一個人來向她致敬 - 她本來只是一個人,反正沒有人接觸的家庭,讓他們知道她經過。 但姐姐瑪吉是不同的! 她有上帝的愛! 究竟是什麼樣子的? 哥林多前書 13推移在空隙率。 4-8地說:

4愛是恆久忍耐又有恩慈,愛是不嫉妒,愛不是遊行本身,是不是自高自大; 5不行為粗暴,不求自己,是不是挑起,認為沒有惡,6不喜歡不義,只喜歡真理; 7承擔所有的事情,相信所有的事情,希望所有的事情,忍受一切。
8愛是永不止息...。

看看五.4 - 它說:“愛是恆久忍耐又有恩慈...。”第一步走在上帝的愛正是姐姐瑪吉將開始 - 痛苦漫長和善良! 多次痛苦是與處理的否定,但在上帝的話語是手段和來自根意義忍或有毅力,耐心被持久。 什麼是好東西 ...老話來那些等待! 和親切這裡真的不需要定義,但神的話語也說,一種是顯示自己有用的方式或道德的善良,親切和善良。 該法案被持久和耐心,顯示自己是有用的方式,正是在這裡被形容邁克托爾森的文章。 它充分證明,姐姐瑪吉的愛走了她的工作。 如果她走了這種愛在她的工作,那麼我們知道,這是上帝誰是她的工作。 為什麼? 記住約翰一書 4說的嗎? 好吧,如果上帝是愛,那麼很明顯,我們可以地方神的名字無處不在哥林多前書 13個字“愛”的出現 - 因此它會讀:

四神患有長,是一種,上帝是不嫉妒;上帝不遊行本身,是不是自高自大; 5不行為粗暴,不求自己,是不是挑起,認為沒有惡,6不喜歡不義,只喜歡真理; 7承擔所有的事情,相信所有的事情,希望所有的事情,忍受一切。
8上帝從來沒有...。

奇妙的真理,我們收到什麼時候我們的心得到充分的這個! 當我們認識到,我們的愛,天父是愛,他是所有哥林多前書 13說他是,它很難不愛走在對任何人,尤其是如果他的生命,並通過您,我們的恩賜的主,救主耶穌,藉著聖靈! 並期待在真棒,強大的承諾,我們總是可以依靠,無論怎樣,在8節 - “上帝從不失敗!”如果他從來沒有失敗,我們愛我們,那麼他是我們! 這意味著,我們從來沒有失敗! 姐姐瑪吉從來沒有在她走,因為她熱愛生活,並通過她。 這是她的呼叫和呼叫所有那些基督徒!

我們應該鼓勵和需要時間來思考這些事情完成的上帝通過姐姐瑪吉高產誰是走在神的愛。 我們這樣做是通過走出去,讓神來完善和實現他的愛,通過我們,由哥林多前書 13:4-8詳細。 如果你是一個基督徒,那麼就在你自己祈禱上帝的愛,因為上帝和詳細設計在他的話語,將工作,並通過你每一天。 當你這樣做水果的愛將彪炳於所有你被召喚著去做。 一切從第一步走在你的愛。

這就是真理!

什麼你認為你是誰?

真理的指導

許多美國人飽受鬼魂,看看占星術 -路透社據路透社-週四12月10日,上午9時23分東部

我一直是個基督徒。 我長大了天主教,但我現在只是一個基督徒。 許多人稱之為非宗派,但它沒有什麼不同。 基督徒是基督徒。 對嗎?

為了增加這一點,我長大了我的父母都出生,成長在南路易斯安那 - 凱真國。 有豐富的遺產,美食,音樂和信仰。 信仰如Traiteurs(treaters或治療師),有人可以把格里格里斯(發音格力,格力)或類型的巫毒詛咒你。 因此,雖然我是一個基督徒 - 天主教 - 我也相信這些東西太多,有些幾乎一樣強烈的天主教信仰。

在閱讀這篇文章,通過它提醒我當時的。 如何混亂,多是我。 相信我所服務的上帝是誰創造了宇宙還認為有人可以把我和一個詛咒上帝不會或不能做任何事情是完全相反的東西,我應該相信。 當你閱讀你的文章的數量和比例的通知的人有信仰,一切從占星術,以鬼,甚至混在東歐和新時代的宗教。 然而,我們清楚地指示及在出埃及記 20:3-6說:

3“你不可有別的神在我面前。 4條:“不可為自己雕刻的形象,任何相似的東西都在天上,或者是在地球下面,或者是在水中下的大地; 5那就不應該向他們低頭,也不符合他們。 至於我,耶和華你的神,是忌邪的神,參觀了父親的罪孽後,孩子們的第三和第四代的那些誰恨我,但顯示出的憐憫,6千,對那些誰愛我,守我誡命。

凡是不是神,他的話語,他的兒子,或者是他的精神產生的,是服從和不服從,最終罪。 最令人不安的聲明中引述這篇文章是由皮尤研究員艾倫庫珀曼,在那裡他指出,“美國宗教的人們舉行了各種各樣的意見和他們之間有重疊的信仰和做法。 很多人不適合簡單的盒子。“雖然我明白,”宗教的人們“可以涵蓋多種意見和信仰,在美國,直接選址的文章是美國人誰是基督徒或有更多的對基督教佔主導地位的傾向 - 這只是另一個聽起來不可思議。

你看,它是那麼簡單,這一點 - 無論你是基督徒或你沒有。 你不能成為一個基督徒和一個小一點的新時代和一個小的這做那。 有沒有地方供它...上帝的話語是明確的。 在約翰福音14:6耶穌說:

耶穌對他說:“我就是道路,真理,生命。 沒有人能到父那裡渡過。

作為一個基督徒意味著你相信耶穌是你的救主,你成了,因為這個詞是指基督教 - 基督一點。 你應該向他反映,100%,而不是其他宗教和信仰和觀點。 陷入協議,甚至有一個信念,除了他的話語說什麼妥協的事物,他死於對您的名義! 事實上,它是空值和空隙,因此在出埃及記為什麼它說,你和你的子女後代不會只是簡單的祝福讓,罪在,然後傳給你的孩子。

我們的牧師告訴我們什麼事今年早些時候熊在這裡分享。 在創世記 47我們讀到該帳戶的約瑟夫和飢荒臨到所有的土地,周圍的埃及。 約瑟的青睞(神的青睞)在視線法老和約瑟的家庭(民族以色列)來到他要求幫助,法老賦予他們的生活,居住的土地,並在埃及的歌珊。 什麼有趣的是,如果你學習本章和下個章節,通過了beginning的外流,了,你會發現,其餘的人都在國內外對埃及進行處理一個飢荒,的人擔任神只有他的方向,(神的話語)住在歌珊地,蓬勃發展! 創世記 47:27說:

這樣,以色列人住在埃及的土地,在該國的戈,以及他們的財產存在,並成倍增長極。

而現在是偉大的,肯定是我們想要的,你所看到的是,以色列的不斷增強和人民乘以以至於他們開始交融與埃及人。 由於他們所做的,他們當然仍然相信上帝和他的話語,但他們開始採用,並開始相信一些埃及方式和信念。 如果你不相信,看看他們做了什麼時,用了幾天的摩西從山上下來,他正在接受十戒 - 什麼人對以色列做什麼? 他們創造了金牛犢和金色的神靈崇拜開始,假設,要么摩西離開他們後面或死亡的神。 現在,他們知道在哪裡? 這些被認為是人民的上帝! 那些人在誰的形象和相似的神。 然而在這裡,他們正神,崇拜他們,知道他們的核心信念?

基督徒,時間已經到了我們的信念,停止混合與其他非聖經的信仰! 我們想知道為什麼人們很難相信,在基督或基督教? 究竟我們給予這個世界和那些尋找他呢? 混亂呢? 誤導? 然而,我們被告知要作見證,傳福音。 什麼是福音? 耶穌基督是道路,真理,生命,任何人沒有任何事情能為您提供訪問上帝,我們的天父 - 時代! 所以你怎麼做,如果你是一個基督徒誰撿起一些東西從他們與埃及和混合你的信仰?

首先,停止,並擺脫它 - 溝的信念,事情你拿起一路上,替代或取代上帝,耶穌和他的話語。

第二,回頭是岸,遠離這個信念 - 上帝給我們的方式,通過他的兒子,耶穌,如果我們由衷的敬拜回頭是岸,遠離這些東西,他是忠實於原諒我們,使我們回到正確的站在他。

第三,皮卡和建立起自己與上帝的關係,耶穌和聖靈 - 閱讀聖經,並開始把上帝的話(他的意志,信仰,方向,指導和生活)回你內心深處。 把注意力集中在耶穌 - 讓他成為第一個在所有的事情...給他卓越,不要讓任何其他神去他面前。 當你這樣做,你開始愛上帝和他的話語哪些職位你完全恢復,他的愛和祝福,將擴展到幾代人的家人,因為正確的事情會流傳下來。 我們只需要首先問自己,“我相信什麼? 而我是誰根據聖經?“

這就是真理!

基督徒在一個不確定的未來銀行業

真理的指導

managing-debt-and-credit
消費者難跟上

羅馬書 13:8說:

欠任何人任何東西,除了彼此相愛,因為他愛別人誰已完成了法律。

希臘目前緊張的這首詩可以翻譯為:“不要繼續的任何東西,因為 ...”

什麼樣的態度,你作為一個基督徒,也對欠債? 你是否像其他人民在世界上認為負債只是生活的一部分? 你滿足於目前的債務或認為債務是正常的嗎? 平均而言,72%的人(所有的人,不只是基督徒)相信攜帶一些債務只是現代生活的一部分,它是任何人都很難避免的。 今天的消費者,總債務的13個記錄在信用局。

雖然上帝的話並沒有禁止所有的債務,它當然禁止的態度,知足與債務或債務以為是“正常的。”事實上這個問題的是,把東西放在信用卡或銀行的債務是真的和信任的未來。 你是說你信任你的工作,你的雇主,你的老闆,你個人和任何人,任何東西作為有能力為您提供支付的債務在任何時候在將來。 真理(神的話語)指出,我們不是銀行的前途和所有這些事情(工作,雇主,老闆,等等),但相反,在我們的主信託作為我們的供應商。 它說,在腓4:19:

我的神,應提供所有您需要根據他的財富在榮耀的基督耶穌。

讓我們清楚 - 這個詞卻沒有說明它是錯誤的,採取貸款的,有信用卡,甚至承擔一些債務。 但是,當它發生的時候,一個字不發生的供求情況,有信仰基督教的信徒,相信和信任神的一切! 申命記 28:12說:

耶和華必向你開放他的好寶貝,天空,讓雨水的季節你的土地,並祝福所有的工作,你的手。 你應該借錢給許多國家,但您不得借用。

在服從相信 - 有信仰 - 在他的話語是他應做什麼,他的諾言,通過基督誰住在你,是關鍵。 它是通過承諾來種子亞伯拉罕到你,它不會返回void,因為他認為以他的話語,它是根據什麼表現,他說。 它只是要求你相信並且成就了一切,立場,不停止相信,無論在什麼情況!

我想鼓勵你 - 不予以譴責,如果你現在的債務。 沒有誰是譴責那些在基督耶穌裡。 從今天開始對某些銀行的財富和未來的你在神。 他是你們的天父是誰提供了所有你和他永遠不會離開你,也不丟棄你。 停止銀行對未來的不確定和供應得到了他的財富在榮耀基督耶穌為所有的東西吧!

這就是真理!

“Love All – Serve All”

The Truth in Character

love-all-serve-all Hard Rock Corporate – Histrory

I was digging through some old stuff that I had from when I was kid and found some papers, a menu, and a button from the first time I ever went to a Hard Rock Cafe. While I was parsing through those items and trying to determine if these little trinkets of my past were worth holding on to, I ran across one of the Hard Rock Cafe's Corporate philosophy statements – “Love All – Serve All.”

As these words uttered in my head and in my Spirit, the Holy Spirit reminded me that the same philosophy was owned by one person over 2,000 years ago – Jesus. Regarding loving all, Jesus said the following in John 13:34-35:

34 A new commandment I give to you, that you love one another; as I have loved you, that you also love one another. 35 By this all will know that you are My disciples, if you have love for one another.”

Regarding serving all, Jesus said the following in Matthew 20:26-28:

26 Yet it shall not be so among you; but whoever desires to become great among you, let him be your servant. 27 And whoever desires to be first among you, let him be your slave— 28 just as the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give His life a ransom for many.”

It is clear from these two scriptures that Jesus already had the simple concept of “Love All – Serve All” before the Hard Rock Cafe came along. As you look at the ministry of Jesus, it becomes VERY clear that He did indeed Love ALL and Served ALL! Everything that Jesus did during His earthly ministry, as well as why He came and what He accomplished on the Cross was done through His love and serving of what God called Him to do. In fact, we are told in John 3:16-17 the following:

16 For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life. 17 For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world through Him might be saved.

如何無私的! 如何充滿愛! 誰任何時候都犧牲了他們唯一的孩子只是一個人,更遑論整個世界充滿了人? 你有沒有見過任何人在這個世界上已經有這麼大的愛人民呢? 但是,但是,很明顯,從耶穌的經文告訴我們說在此之前,當我們愛,因為他愛我們,世界將知道我們是耶穌的追隨者及真基督徒,如果我們愛上了他無條件的愛。 它不會通過基督教音樂,或小“耶穌魚”,背面你的汽車,或WWJD項鍊您在哪裡在你的脖子上。 它只會通過你的愛,接受神藉著我們的主耶穌基督,他們就知道了。 這就是為什麼它是如此重要的愛。 這裡在先驅的真相,我們已經談論過這之前和進一步閱讀所有愛好,一定要重溫這篇文章, “愛所有!”

這是什麼服務的呢? 再看看耶穌說什麼 - 他說,我們要彼此的僕人。 事實上,他說,你們要彼此的奴隸! 一個奴隸? 這意味著要把所有的權利,所有的希望,所有的慾望,和所有的舒適,服務他人的事! 你也許會想:“等一下! 你的意思是耶穌要我放棄我的需要和慾望,以幫助提供希望,慾望和舒適的服務他人? 這聽起來有點不公平!“嗯,這不是耶穌做什麼? 想想看,一分鐘 - 耶穌來之前,這個地球上,他住哪兒? 難道他不是住在天上的神嗎? 如果他在那裡,你不覺得他住在天上的和平,不知道疼痛,瘀傷,出血,切割,或任何傷害他嗎? 你覺得這是他的願望,親自講,要釘在十字架上經過酷刑和痛苦? 記得甚至耶穌走遍小時前被移交給猶太人,讓神的旨意,可實現 - 馬太 26:38-39:

38然後,他對他們說:“我的靈魂,是極為悲哀,甚至死亡。 留在這兒,看著我。“
39他來到一個小遠,跌倒在他的臉上,禱告,說:“我的父親啊,如果有可能,讓這杯離開我,然而,不是我,而是按照你的意願。”

耶穌向父神禱告無需再忍受什麼,他知道他將不得不做,但在這裡卻什麼為準? 耶穌的祈禱是不是他會做,但他的父親天意工作要做。 父親是什麼神的旨意辦? 剛才我們提到它在約翰書 3:16-17。 做父親的意願,是作為一個僕人。 耶穌還需要服務的所有人類呢! 如果他決定不這樣做他的父親意志,我們就不會是他完成的救恩通過完成上帝的意志! 而且我們有很多要感謝耶穌被聽話的,直到完成工作後,跨! 這就是無私地服務,沒有想過自己 - 耶穌是應當稱頌的!

所有熱愛和僕人罩應在每一個基督徒的心,並應促使我們在所有我們做的事。 當我們這樣做這兩件事情走出來“愛全部 - 服務所有”只有到那時,世界看到耶穌是誰和通過我們!

這就是真理!

Seeking the Advice of Jesus for Your Life

The Guiding Truth

seek300_1 Seeking Psychics: Consumers Look to Outside Help for Financial Advice

Which is worse? To receive counsel and trust in financial advisers like Bernie Madoff or to listen to the counsel of fortune tellers, soothsayers, mystics, or, as they are now called, “Intuitives?” When it comes to your finances and the financial decisions you make in this world's system, you better choose neither choice, at least as a Christian and follower of Jesus!

雖然這篇文章並沒有透露實際數字正在轉向利用這些“直覺者”這並不代表它的一些令人吃驚的信息,他們是用多少。 從公司和企業爭取服務的直覺者為 10,000元1天,以直覺者建造大型公司,可以支持超過 150名員工,並具有“銷售”的增加,平均7 1 / 2月10日消息 - 明顯優於大多數公司認為正在努力只是為了留在這個開放和漂浮的經濟! 他們的客戶可以說他們用的字眼,例如“提升”送禮者,焦慮藥,生命的方向度外,信心instillers,生活教練,諮詢度外,甚至輔導員。

雖然許多人會發現的鼓勵和方向,我們必須清楚誰直覺者是什麼,聖經說他們。 首先,一個直觀的,按照定義是某人具有“權力”來辨別一個人的真正性質或情況。 同義詞可以用來稱呼他們是本能,而根據定義,是採取行動或沒有發生明顯的深謀遠慮,提示,或規劃。 請注意,它們是無效的,涉及的神,他的話語,耶穌,或在尋求聖靈就什麼。 他們就一切都來自他們 - 在某些情況下,我們可以稱他們為自己的神。

那麼,聖經說的這些直覺者? 裘德,兄弟詹姆斯警告說,基督的身體對這些人,甚至提醒我們,他們已經收到顯著! 在裘德1:4(新生活的翻譯),裘德調用出來:

我這樣說是因為不敬虔的人混進了一些他們的方式到你的教會,說上帝的奇妙恩典,使我們的生活不道德的生活。 在譴責這些人早就被記錄,因為他們都否認我們唯一的碩士和主,耶穌基督。

對我們來說,作為基督徒,我們必須警惕那些來到基督的身體已經沒有任何關係,然後宣告耶穌能夠幫助指導我們的生活,展示我們的東西他們“本能地”了解我們。 不要相信沒有欺騙,以為事情,上帝的話甚至不會對你說話! 只有上帝知道這一點。 他已經告訴我們,耶利米29:11:

因為我知道我對你的計劃,“耶和華說。 “他們是計劃好的,不是災難,給你一個未來和希望。

還有誰知道比全能的上帝?

裘德去警告基督徒裘德1:17-19(新生活翻譯):

17但你,我親愛的朋友們,一定要記住我們的使徒的主耶穌基督說。 18他們告訴你,在過去的時代將有你們當在生活中,其目的是為了滿足他們的不敬虔的私慾。 19這些人是那些誰是你們中間製造分裂。 他們按照他們的天性,因為他們沒有上帝的精神在他們身上。

公告在這裡說什麼裘德 - 他們的目的是滿足自己的慾望! 兄弟姐妹們在基督裡,如果這些人你最感興趣的頭腦,他們會不會提供了他們的“禮物”,以幫助身體的基督為我們作為基督徒蒙召,不看要繳費呢? 基督的身體,是在類似的禮品經營的精神熏陶,幫助每個人都讓他們領導,領導,引導,熏陶,建設中互相信任,沒有任何需要支付!

更有什者,通知說,在什麼裘德19節 - “他們按照他們的天性,因為他們沒有上帝的精神在他們身上。”聽起來酷似“直覺者”或“直覺”的文章中描述。 作為一個結果,什麼情況發生時這些人進入基督的身體開始影響一個基督信徒? 裘德稱之為清楚在開始的19節 - “這些人是那些誰是製造分裂你們中間。”這是什麼原因導致人們雙重的態度或兩項操作耶穌和上帝的話,而要聽取他們的“直覺。”你可以不遵循兩個不同的單詞,反對或互相矛盾,互相 - 這就是所謂的混亂,並導致許多人精神痛苦,甚至不知道誰或什麼信任。

So what are we to do? Let's let the word speak for itself – Jude 1:20-25 (The New Living Translation):

20 But you, dear friends, must build each other up in your most holy faith, pray in the power of the Holy Spirit, 21 and await the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ, who will bring you eternal life. In this way, you will keep yourselves safe in God's love.

22 And you must show mercy to those whose faith is wavering. 23 Rescue others by snatching them from the flames of judgment. Show mercy to still others, but do so with great caution, hating the sins that contaminate their lives.

24 Now all glory to God, who is able to keep you from falling away and will bring you with great joy into his glorious presence without a single fault. 25 All glory to him who alone is God, our Savior through Jesus Christ our Lord. All glory, majesty, power, and authority are his before all time, and in the present, and beyond all time! Amen.

If you encourage, build up, and use the Gifts of the Spirit that God has imparted to you, who have Jesus living in and through you, this is how we keep each other safe in God's love! The love of God being shed abroad in the body of Christ's heart is how we can receive all that we may think we need from some Intuitive. No Intuitive can give what Jesus has given! But notice here too, that the same love that keeps us safe is the love we are to extend to those that have waivered or are wavering and allowing this stuff to contaminate their lives that believe and choose the word of an Intuitive over the Word of God. Pray for them to know The Truth and to not be destroyed by the choices they make now, but to be saved by and through the choice the make for New Life! Stay focused on this Truth in verse 25 – “All glory, majesty, power, and authority are His before all time, and in the present, and beyond all time! Amen.” That sounds like a future and a hope that can only be delivered by one person and that is the Lord, Master and King, Jesus!

And that is The Truth!

快樂的生活就像耶穌基督

The Truth in Character

jesus1 Newsvine.com Article from an Associated Press Writer: Ban on a type of prayer in school allowed to stand

Leader. Coach. Man of honor. A teacher that guides and instructs. Allowed to have authority over those known as his students. These are just some of the adjectives used to describe Coach Marcus Borden, per his job as a coach at an East Brunswick, New Jersey school. But couldn't these same adjectives be used to describe Jesus Christ? Those that know Jesus would definitely agree. But yet, the same qualities we find within Jesus and Coach Borden, that is supposed to describe Coach Borden's job, is under attack by the political correctness and continual violation of his free-speech rights. It appears that there is a severe disconnect in true definition of the job roles and descriptions that Coach Borden is to carry out – it's as though it lacks granular detail….or does it?

According to the account given in this article, this apparently is not the first time that the Coach has been attacked by only “some” of the parents of these students. What is ironic is that even after all of the bans that have been placed on Coach Borden – Coach not being allowed to pray over the students before a game or lead them in praying over the food they were about to eat; Coach not being allowed to drop to one-knee and show respect while the STUDENTS lead their own prayer time; Coach not being allowed to bow his head while the STUDENTS lead their own prayer time – the STUDENTS STILL pray before a game and before they eat while Coach Borden is only allowed to stand at attention. 為什麼? Because those parents of “some” of the students believe Coach should not advocate or endorse one particular “religion.”

The quote from the article that I want to draw from is this one:

“Coaches are not supposed to be promoting religion; that's up to students and parents and pastors,”

Someone who has been placed into leadership, authority, and is teaching, leading and directing students, regardless of age, we are told are “shaping minds.” For some reason they seem to equivolate a teacher to a robot with no life, no life experiences, and for that matter, nothing of their personal characteristic that they are allowed to impart to those they teach. The irony is that if you do a quick search on how to teach anyone anything, one of the final, key steps to teaching is:

“Encourage practical application. Suggest a follow-up activity to reinforce what your audience has learned. Encourage the audience to apply what they have learned to everyday life , or teach the skill to someone else.”

Applying what they need to learn to everyday life reinforces what the student learns. But, let's talk about this “everyday life” – I believe this holds the key to the contention between “some” parents and even “some” that have issues with Christians living their life, as defined by Jesus Christ. Basically, “some” of the people do not have a clear understanding of what “life” is to a Christian and thus the communication breakdown and issues.

The Bible and Jesus said, in John 14:6:

6 Jesus said to him, “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me.

Notice, by definition, Jesus has told us Christians what “life” is – Jesus is life! When we take on the God-kind of life, we, as Christians, live a life that is Jesus. In fact, notice what God's Word also says in John 1:4:

4 In Him was life, and the life was the light of men.

Jesus is life and life is in Him! And life – Jesus – is the light of men! Which men? Men like Coach Borden – men that don't hide the light of Jesus Christ, but that live this life He gave us! The issue was not that Coach Borden was doing all these things, its that the parents of “some” of these students do not clearly understand what living a life like Jesus Christ looks like or means. And, as most things in this world, when it's confusing or makes us afraid, as human beings, the first thing we want to do is get rid of it and remove it from our sight.

Coach Borden was living out of the Recreated Spirit he had been given through the Blood bought sacrifice of Jesus Christ! When someone else pays for something with their life and takes the life that you had and replaces it with a life that is free from the sin, pain, sickness, poverty, and all things that steal, kill and destroy your life what else are you to do other than to live a life that is consumed and all about Him! Without Jesus, Coach Borden would not have the New Life and nothing Coach Borden did, including his teaching of those students, would amount to imparting anything through his teaching.

While the article does not go into these areas, I'd love to know some statistics surrounding the athletic program that Coach Borden had while he was allowed to lead prayer and pray with his students. I wonder how many of the parents of “some” of these students could recall and give an account for the seasons that the students went without injuries? Or how many times they were blessed with the finances for doing what the students wanted to achieve, in terms of going to certain competitions or state events? Or how many times theses parents' kids stayed out of real trouble or even potential danger because an imparted life application through Coach Borden's teaching? I don't know what the stats are, but, for an individual living a life like Jesus Christ, the word is clear that EVERYTHING he sets his hand to, prospers! I wonder how different things will be now that this Coach is not allowed to let his life in Jesus Christ be shared with any student?

你的生活是像耶穌基督? 你讓他做什麼你 - 他自由地放下他的生命,發生在罪惡,疾病,貧困,死亡和不足,這樣你就不會遇到它 - 改變和創造你的生活是住在他? 這是約 3:16詩句,人們懷念的詩句後面說話是算數的 - 他們只得到一半的權利,並認為耶穌來擊敗他們失望和譴責他們不明白為什麼他們需要一個生活就像耶穌。 約翰書 3:16-17規定:

16神愛世人認為他給了他唯一的兒子,誰相信他應該不會滅亡,但有永恆的生命。 17因為神沒有派他的兒子到世界譴責世界,而是世界藉著他得救。

耶穌來不是要譴責,但為了節省大家! 它為整個世界! 如果你還沒有作出這樣的選擇,我們鼓勵您閱讀我們的“免費禮品”一節在這裡先驅報一個真理,就是你可能會明白生活像耶穌的手段。 如果你有一個經驗耶穌已經進入了你,使你一個新的創造,改變你通過這個網站,然後我們鼓勵您與我們聯繫,與我們分享您的經驗! 我們來這裡是為了幫助你,引導你進入一切的真理和知識的耶穌基督,知道生活是像耶穌基督將永遠改變你的生活!

Life and Death Are in What You Say!

Your Part in The Truth

words Reuters News Article: Kathy Griffin's Jesus remark cut from Emmy show

Proverbs 18:20-21 states:

20 A man's stomach shall be satisfied from the fruit of his mouth; From the produce of his lips he shall be filled. 21 Death and life are in the power of the tongue, And those who love it will eat its fruit.

The Book of Proverbs is not the only place that we hear this sort of instruction from God's Word. Jesus had clear instruction about what you say as well in Matthew 11:23-24:

23 For assuredly, I say to you, whoever says to this mountain, 'Be removed and be cast into the sea,' and does not doubt in his heart, but believes that those things he says will be done, he will have whatever he says. 24 Therefore I say to you, whatever things you ask when you pray, believe that you receive them, and you will have them.

Now, I can understand that as Christians many people look at situations like this and state, “You Christians can be so prude. Can't you take a joke? I mean, she is a comedian and is entitled to her own comments. What's the big deal?” And for a portion of those comments, they are right. Each person is personally responsible for his or her own words and life, for that matter. They are personally responsible for their own beliefs. And they are definitely responsible for their own actions in everything they do.

What is clear here is that Kathy Griffin has used her platform of “worldly fame” to take responsibility for all those things. She has made it abundantly clear by the words out of her own mouth where she stands and what she believes. As the Word says in Proverbs 18:21-22, she is satisfying herself with the fruit or words she produces out of her own mouth. She is creating the very death or life that her life will live and consume. Be it a joke or be it a fact that she was serious about what she said, does not mean a thing. Notice that no where in these passages of scripture does God make place for people to have some gray area that He says, “Jokes are great and I'm so glad when they make fun of the greatest sacrifice I've ever had to make for people and individuals just like Kathy. Please continue to make jokes about the person who has The Life and The Way to me!”

相反,耶穌說什麼 - 是很清楚的人,她聲稱,她將不崇拜她,不再神? 在馬太福音11:23-24,耶穌說,如果你沒有懷疑和不信你的心,相信你的話,那麼不管你說的做。 聽起來很相像的經文說,諺語。 我們作為基督徒 - 作為信徒在基督和神的話語 - 當聖經提到的東西在兩個或更多的地方,那麼上帝一定是試圖讓我們的注意力就這個議題,否則他也不會花那麼多時間是多餘的。

雖然什麼凱西表示可能是一個笑話,可能已被東西,她認為是一個偉大的想法引發媒體的關注她,可能是她的方式取笑她的信仰,或者什麼的,但現實是,她讓她的話產生生命的東西,她的生活。 事實上,這項權力的死亡和生命在你說要把我們大家認識到的東西,我們允許我們的口中出來。 這是不夠的說,“哦,你能不能採取一個笑話嗎?”回到舊盟約下,人們會用石頭打死的褻瀆像這樣的談話。 但是,為什麼? 因為他們得罪人? 不! 由於人們對上帝理解能力的企業協議與說的一樣,並相信神的話語說。

雖然力量創造了死生,可以影響一個人,同樣的權力,通過發布時所說的話,可以創造這麼多。 詞可以劃分,也可以匯集。 話可以給,也可以採取。 因此,當我們說,生命和死亡是你說的話,你可以很快看到,我們必須更加了解我們的語言文字釋放到我們的生活,我們的家庭,我們的教會大家庭和全世界。 每個人,一切都在聽。 將岩石哭出來,更加響亮的聲音比的正義? 請問贖回主這樣說? 或將死亡的聲音和褻瀆規則? If you have spent anytime reading the Bible and know what the “end” holds, you know the answer. What we must do as Christians is line up with that and be reminded to not side with talk like this and let the Truth of God's Word prevail!

And that's The Truth!

先驅報的真相季度報告- 2009年第一季度

先驅報的真相

quarterly-report1 我們的使命的一部分,我們相信,讓你告訴他們做什麼上帝是在和通過先驅的真相,是一樣重要的文章和內容在這裡找到。 有了這樣說,但我們更致力於提供一個季度報告,各種各樣的,即承認所有的地方,這個部是感人的,所有的人,上帝是達到與他的話語,他的兒子和他的精神。

Since December 28, 2008, Herald of The Truth has focused on taking “worldly” news articles that leave out The Truth of God's Word and deliver on what God's Word – The Truth – has to say in response to every topic and subject. The vision and goal is still to not focus on any particular author but instead to focus on delivering The Truth so that it may reach a world that needs to know it. We continue to be lead by the Holy Ghost to authors who will deliver on this single goal and hope to have other authors being posting more and more content so that you may have The Truth in its fullness. Since the 28th of December of 2008 we have had one additional author post on Herald of The Truth and we are excited about what God is doing in and through that author. We hope and pray that you are too and that it abundantly bless and minister to you.

One of the biggest parts of ministering the Gospel is soul winning – saving those that are lost with the Gospel of Jesus Christ being Lord and Savior of all who call upon His name! During the last three months Herald of The Truth is blessed to have received it's FIRST salvation from a gentleman in Nigeria who contact us February. We quickly sent out some books/materials that were focused on nurturing and growing his Faith and new found salvation in Jesus! Praise be to God for the Harvest! We know that Jesus would have died if there would have only been ONE person on this earth, just so God could have his child returned to Him! We just glorify Jesus for that salvation and pray and know there will be more lives touched, changed, and transformed by the very love of God!

As of March 28, 2009, we have 120 unique visitors from 30 countries throughout the world! Of those visitors more than HALF of them are repeat visitors of Herald of The Truth and we just thank you and praise God for you that you are the faithful, Word-of-God-hungry people that seek The Truth to fill you and displace the lies that try to take over your life!

We want to take this time to recognize the countries that we are praying for and know that God's Word – The Truth – is working to change a country for the glory of God. The countries we have seen our visitors come from include:

Switzerland, Canada, Germany, Australia, United Kingdom, Brazil, Lithuania, Malawi, Spain, El Salvador, Philippines, Guatemala, Indonesia, Denmark, India, Serbia, Mexico, Hong Kong, Romania, Ukraine, Netherlands, Colombia, Nigeria, Sweden, Russia, Italy, Algeria, Finland, Singapore, and the United Stated of America

We just pray that God may richly bless each and every nation and know that the spreading of the Gospel is happening and going to those that need to know The Truth!

We want to thank each and every one of you that take the time each day to read and spend time here on Herald of The Truth. It is because of you and the Holy Ghost commission that we continue to move forward in the mission that we received at the end of last year. We look forward to Q2 2009 when we believe that we will have even greater news to share of all that the Lord has done in and through Herald of The Truth! May God richly bless you and may you keep His Truth close to you at all times!

Blessings on all!

The Economy Is On The Up-Turn

The Truth in Character

Economy1 Yahoo! Finance Article – Why This Recession Seems Worse Than '70s and '80s

Yahoo! Finance Article – Foreclosures fall from December to January

Yahoo! News Article – US January foreclosures fall: RealtyTrac

Yahoo! Finance Article – US retail sales unexpectedly up 1 percent

Turn on the news and you will hear how we are in a recession and on the verge of another Great Depression. “The current situation has nothing in common with the Great Depression,” says economist Steve Hanke of the Cato Institute and Johns Hopkins University. “The sooner they [in Washington] stop spinning the bad news story and say nothing, the sooner we'll be more confident.”

You probably have not heard the news that foreclosure went down since last month. There actually was a drop in foreclosures from December 2008 to January 2009. We are all being bombarded with negative words and predictions daily. David Jones, CEO of DMJ Advisors, is among those who see “hints of stability.” By that he means, the rate of decline in areas like retail appear to be slowing. “We'll see the same thing happening on the housing side in the next couple months,” says Jones.

The Commerce Department said total retail sales rose 1 percent in January, advancing for the first time in seven months.

“I'm just waiting for the shift in people's expectations,” says Chris Rupkey of Bank of Tokyo-Mitsubishi. We have all watched the stock market rise and fall in a day, so dramatically based on fear of the unknown, have heard what the President is saying or not saying, and have kept up with the status of the stimulus plan. Yes, there has been a rise in unemployment since last year, but it is not as bad as everyone is claiming . We have heard that this is like the 70's, but even though the sharp decline in payrolls over the past three months has been stunning, it is not as bad on a percentage basis as one period in 1974-1975, according to David Resler, chief economist at Nomura International. Resler says the economy would have to lose some 767,000 jobs a month over a three-month period from the current employment level to match that miserable performance.
Home foreclosure filings in January totaled 274,399, down 10 percent from December according to RealtyTrac's (an online market of foreclosure properties) US Foreclosure Market Report. The report depends on who you are listening to and I know for every bit of information in this article that I quoted there are other news stories saying doom and gloom things with no glimmer of hope.

Interesting thought – we can either speak good things over the economy or bad things. In Proverbs 18:21 of the New King James Version it says:

“The Power of Life and Death are in the power of the tongue and those who love it will eat its fruit.”

I also love the Message Bible translation of Proverbs 18:21. It says:

“Words kill, words give life; they're either poison or fruit—you choose.”

What are you choosing to say over the economy, your finances and your job? I am speaking good things over all of it. This goes beyond just being positive or looking on the bright side. We should speak “The Truth” in our lives. The truth comes from the Word of God!

The truth is found in Philippians 4:19 of New King James Version:

“My God shall supply all your needs according to His riches in glory by Christ Jesus.”

Another truth is found in Luke 6:38 in the New King James Version:

“Give, and it will be given to you: good measure, pressed down, shaken together, and running over will be put into your bosom. For with the same measure that you use, it will be measured back to you.”

We all need to remember even in these times where the world is uncertain, when we give it will be given back to us. God's children should still be giving and be in faith that their seed is multiplying.

The truth is that fear does not come from God. In 2 Timothy 1:7 of the New King James Version it says:

“For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind.”

Personally, I am going to keep looking up to God who is Jehovah Jireh, My Provider ( Genesis 22:14). As the song goes I cannot be moved. Jesus is my Rock and Salvation (Psalm 62:2) and I shall not fear!

Tips to Handling Any Economy as a Christian

Your Part in The Truth

Economy

Yahoo Article – Tips to cope with the economy in 2009

Right now, there are many analyst, senior analyst, finance gurus and the like pouring forth their knowledge of how to handle the 2009 economy. While some of the content is great for supplying us with great factual information and the clarity of the “how's” and “what's” of the financial arenas, most of it focuses the reader on calling things that are not to be! We as Christians should be calling those things that be not as though they are, according to God's Word (Romans 4:16-18)!

Case in point – this particular article does a wonderful job of lining out points like this:

“How should people prepare financially for a coming layoff?”

And here's a great reply to the question of “What is the outlook going forward?”:

“2009 probably isn't going to be a lot of fun for anybody. We're still going to be in recession and probably a deep recession. But there will be some opportunities. Falling home prices coupled with low mortgage rates will continue to attract bargain hunters into the housing market. Home prices will probably continue to decline. They're certainly not going to jump higher, so affordability will only get better.”

I'm not sure how many readers get encouraged by this or feel like they have received something of value? The fact is that, yes, we see what is going on here in this time and place in this world. But, as Christians the questions that should be asked are what does God's financial plan look like? What is His outlook for EVERY year you are here on this earth? Are you coping or overcoming through the victory in Jesus in such a place and time as this? What is The Truth about God's Economy for all?

Here are some key things to remember, meditate on, and never let go of that will help to not only position you for any economy, but it will help you step over into God's Economy – the very Economy that Heaven operates in all the time:

1。 God's desire is to give to you and bless you! Matthew 7:11:

If you then, being evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your Father who is in heaven give good things to those who ask Him!

Many individuals can account for the life they lived with a parent(s) that did not give anything to them. Many others can account for a parent(s) that gave, but only gave of what was bad or not the best. But most human beings have a nature to protect, love, nurture and supply what is necessary, needed, wanted, and the best to their children. As soon as you were a Christian you entered a family that your Father knows beyond all measure and bounds how to give you good things when you ask!

2。 By God's grace through our faith, we are now heirs of the new covenant blessings. It is because of the righteousness of Jesus Christ, which is passed on to us through faith and by grace! Romans 4:3, 5, 13, 16, 20-25:

3 For what does the Scripture say? “Abraham believed God, and it was accounted to him for righteousness.” 5 But to him who does not work but believes on Him who justifies the ungodly, his faith is accounted for righteousness, 13 For the promise that he would be the heir of the world was not to Abraham or to his seed through the law, but through the righteousness of faith. 16 Therefore it is of faith that it might be according to grace, so that the promise might be sure to all the seed, not only to those who are of the law, but also to those who are of the faith of Abraham, who is the father of us all 20 He did not waver at the promise of God through unbelief, but was strengthened in faith, giving glory to God, 21 and being fully convinced that what He had promised He was also able to perform. 22 And therefore “it was accounted to him for righteousness.”
23 Now it was not written for his sake alone that it was imputed to him, 24 but also for us. It shall be imputed to us who believe in Him who raised up Jesus our Lord from the dead, 25 who was delivered up because of our offenses, and was raised because of our justification.

Turn loose your faith! If God sees the Faith in your heart, He has ways of getting the blessings and things you have need of into your hands! HE is the one that does it – not you or anyone else! Seek God first in all things. Be quick to obey God's instructions – His Word. Believe Him for what He has promised in His Word, aggressively! Begin to speak God's Word over whatever you are believing for! With joyful expectations, begin to look for it to happen! And now is the time to give abundantly because the liberal soul shall be made fat (Proverbs 11:25)!

3。 One of the keys to living in God's economy is giving! Proverbs 11:24-25 (from the Amplified Bible):

24There are those who [generously] scatter abroad, and yet increase more; there are those who withhold more than is fitting or what is justly due, but it results only in want.

25The liberal person shall be enriched, and he who waters shall himself be watered.

Many will say, “Well, I do give. I tithe every week to my local Church. I GIVE my tithe.” Well, let's make sure we know The Truth here – the tithe is NOT yours to give! You are a steward that BRINGS the tithe to God. Malachi 3:8-10 says that we are to “bring all the tithes (the whole tenth of your income) into the storehouse, that there may be food in My house, and prove Me now by it, says the Lord of hosts,” Notice it said to “BRING” not give. Just like you would bring something you have back to someone who is the owner, you bring the tithe to God. Hence the tithe is God's. When do you start giving? When you GIVE an offering that is ABOVE and BEYOND the tithe that you brought to God. When you GIVE to a ministry, AFTER you have tithed to your local Church (the local Church where you get fed the Word of God – hence God's storehouse – is where you bring the tithe). When you GIVE to a missionary that is reaching the world with the Gospel of Jesus Christ. When you have GIVEN to the poor and those that are widows and those that are in need. Only then can you say that you have truly given!

4。 Once you have given, look to God for your return. Luke 6:38:

38Give, and it shall be given unto you; good measure, pressed down, and shaken together, and running over, shall men give into your bosom. For with the same measure that ye mete withal it shall be measured to you again.

“You mean it's OK to give and then expect to get something back?” YES, so long as you are looking to God for the return! Remember, when God gave His only Son, He expected something in return for His giving too – He gave Jesus expecting to get back man!

5。 As part of God's family – as a child of God – He desires for you to materially prosper, be in health physically, and Spiritually prosper. 3 John 2:

2 Beloved, I pray that you may prosper in all things and be in health, just as your soul prospers.

That is a stark contrast to what the devil and this world wants – according to John 10:10, they want to steal, kill and destroy you and all that is about you in your life! Stop listening to the lies that try to pull you out of the victory that Jesus established! You are prosperous with long life! You are strong in a victorious Spirit! And you have all that you need, with plenty left over to give, in Jesus name!

While this is by no means a complete exhaustive listing, these are some of the keys that will prepare you and set you up for the blessings that God has for you, even in the midst of a world economy like this. Living according to the way that the world wants you to, prepares you to fail and it is living below the victory that Jesus has given you access to – it's living the defeated life when Jesus has given you life and life MORE abundantly (John 10:10)!

And that is The Truth!
