They're good, but they also got some things wrong.

Never again Plato. 🤮

Maaaaaan, I am one straw from moving to Montana and living in a cave. No electricity, plumbing, Internet, etc. Just me and the tools I need to survive and that's it. And my Bible. We weren't made for this rat race y'all.

You know who you are 🙃😂

Regarding all of the responsibilities of the church, I trust no work of man to be used in place of God's word for teaching. No matter if it's teaching young children or adults.

Anti semitism is definitely sin. But, to the Jewish people, to those that do not worship Jesus, they are guilty of the same sins as the gentiles that reject Christ. youtu.be/ua0B_IFSJT8?is=qxpN…

It is possible to be deeply sincere and still be sincerely wrong. Scripture never treats intensity of belief as proof that the belief itself is true. Paul said of his fellow Jews, “I testify about them that they have a zeal for God, but not in accordance with knowledge” (Romans 10:2). Zeal was present. Truth was missing. That distinction is eternally serious. Faith does not save simply because it is strong. What matters is the object and content of that faith. Paul warned the Corinthians about receiving “another Jesus” and “a different gospel” (2 Corinthians 11:4). A person can use Christian language, speak passionately about Jesus, and still be trusting a Christ who has been reshaped by culture, tradition, personal preference, or false teaching. This is why doctrine matters so much. Paul told Timothy, “Pay close attention to yourself and to your teaching” (1 Timothy 4:16). What we believe about God, Christ, sin, the cross, resurrection, grace, repentance, justification, and eternal life is not theological decoration. These truths define the gospel itself. Remove enough of them and eventually the message may still sound Christian while no longer being the gospel Christ entrusted to His church. Paul’s warning in Galatians is severe because the stakes are severe: “If any man is preaching to you a gospel contrary to what you received, he is to be accursed” (Galatians 1:9). He did not excuse false teaching because the preacher was passionate, persuasive, compassionate, or sincere. Truth mattered because souls were involved. This should also humble us. None of us is protected from error merely because we have good intentions. The Bereans were called noble because they were “examining the Scriptures daily to see whether these things were so” (Acts 17:11). Even apostolic preaching was measured against the written Word. How much more should our teachers, traditions, experiences, and personal convictions be tested there? So we should never ask only, “Do I believe strongly?” We must ask, “Do I believe what God has actually revealed?” Saving faith receives the Christ of Scripture and rests in the gospel God has given. Sincerity can make a false belief feel convincing. Only truth can make faith sound.

Martin Luther, speaking against the Catholic view of salvation, said that the “bottom of hell” is for those who add obedience, law, or anything else as an additional requirement for salvation. “Those who seek to be justified by the Law are fallen from grace and are in grave danger of eternal death. If this holds true in the case of those who seek to be justified by the moral Law, what will become of those, I should like to know, who endeavor to be justified by their own regulations and vows? They will fall to the very bottom of hell. "Oh, no," they say, "we will fly straight into heaven. If you live according to the rules of Saint Francis, Saint Dominick, Saint Benedict, you will obtain the peace and mercy of God. If you perform the vows of chastity, obedience, etc., you will be rewarded with everlasting life." Let these playthings of the devil go to the place where they came from and listen to what Paul has to say in this verse in accordance with Christ's own teaching: "He that believeth in the Son of God, hath everlasting life; but he that believeth not in the Son shall not see life, but the wrath of God abideth in him."” — Martin Luther (1535) - Commentary on Galatians 5:4

My stars I love this one 😂

One of the clearest marks of spiritual growth is that we become increasingly suspicious of our own strength. In the beginning, we often imagine that maturity will make us feel stronger, more capable, and less dependent. Over time, God teaches us something far deeper. We begin to see how much weakness has always been there, how deeply sin still reaches into the heart, and how completely we depend upon Christ for every act of obedience. Jesus said it plainly: “Apart from Me you can do nothing” (John 15:5). This does not mean that sanctification produces no real change. Grace truly transforms us. Sin is mortified, obedience grows, desires are renewed, and the fruit of the Holy Spirit becomes increasingly visible. Yet as the light of Scripture reaches further into us, we also become more aware of motives, pride, unbelief, selfishness, and corruption that once escaped our notice. A growing Christian does not become comfortable with himself. He becomes more amazed that God continues to show mercy to him. Paul understood this deeply. After years of extraordinary ministry, suffering, revelation, and usefulness, he was still being taught dependence. Christ told him, “My grace is sufficient for you, for power is perfected in weakness” (2 Corinthians 12:9). Paul could therefore say, “When I am weak, then I am strong” (2 Corinthians 12:10). His weakness had become the place where the sufficiency of Christ was made unmistakably clear. This is why genuine maturity makes boasting increasingly difficult. The further we walk with God, the harder it becomes to take credit for anything good in us. Paul looked at his own labour and said, “By the grace of God I am what I am,” and then added that although he labored greatly, “yet not I, but the grace of God with me” (1 Corinthians 15:10). He worked. He suffered. He obeyed. Yet underneath all of it he saw the sustaining hand of grace. There is something deeply humbling about realizing that every step forward has depended upon God from beginning to end. The desire to obey Him, the strength to resist sin, the hunger for His Word, the perseverance to continue, and every trace of holiness in us are fruits of His work. “For it is God who is at work in you, both to will and to work for His good pleasure” (Philippians 2:13). So spiritual growth should leave us increasingly grateful, increasingly prayerful, and increasingly dependent upon Christ. The mature believer has learned enough about his own heart to know that self confidence is dangerous ground. He looks back and sees grace behind every victory, mercy behind every recovery, and Christ beneath every step that kept him from falling. The nearer we come to Him, the less room remains for boasting and the more natural it becomes to say, “To Him be the glory forever. Amen” (Romans 11:36).

Iykyk 😅

At this point in my life, when I detect any amount of liberal/progressive in a person, no matter what they were to me, they go into the category of "desperately needs Jesus, but likely won't want Him". Doesn't change how I treat them, we're all pretty stupid 😅

The hardest heart to reach is not the atheist who knows he is lost. It is the churchgoer who is lost and convinced he is found.

Ladies, if you don’t trust him enough to submit to his leadership, you’re not ready to be married

Thanks to feminism: Women have flooded the job market, driving down wages. Husbands make less money due to the oversupply of workers. Many women can’t leave the workforce, even if they wanted to. Children have lost full-time access to their mother. The mental health of children has never been worse. Society has lost the benefit of homemakers that have time to volunteer in their community.
