Admin	To truly...... Posted : 27 Jul, 2013 05:42 AM Have the mind of God is to be a giver. To be a giver and not need to have anything given in return including acceptance. We think God needs our acceptance and our praise He does not. He is suficient in and of His self. When we find our suficiency in God we too can be generous givers and not have the need to receive in return for our sacrifice. Our God is a generous giver. But do not be decieved because it is the giver who determins the gift and not the receiver. Those who would tell you what you ought to give to them and try having power over your life in such a way is not having the mind of God. We do not tell God what He is to give us, right? Doesnt God determine our gift to us? When we live in the victory and strength of God we too become generous givers and determine our gifts to those who would accept the gifts. The rejectors are just rejectors and no amount of gift to them will change this. Only repentence of their rejecting and change of mind can do this. Post Reply

Was OT implying you were condemning...just through that statement in because so many are quick to hold others to the standards they have set for themselves base don where they are in their Christian walk. It's easy to forget where we've come from. Post Reply

They bring life......We are called to encourage the body of Christ to live in life and victory. To passionatly persue the treasue who is Christ. If a individual fails to do this they are bringing judgement upon their selves through their own emotional state of torment. I dont need to bring judgement only the narrow road of life. Post Reply

Posted : 9 Aug, 2013 05:29 AM I never could understand when Jesus said those who were comndemned already who believed not because they loved darkness more than light. Darkness comes from within our hearts in the form of rage and anger, bitterness and striff, regret and guilt, self comndemnation. Apart from the love of God we are living out hell right here on earth. The thing that prevents us from being totally in darkness is that we are able to experience Gods presence here whether a believer or not. Even unbelievers experience the relief of their own comndemnation in the love they experience in relationship, the light around them, their relief from self in peace. The earth is filled with the glory of God and even unbelievers experience His glory to a point. But oneday they will be totally without the benifit of Gods glory and only left to self. We too as believers will experience Gods glory in greater measures as we loose our life for Christs sake and take up our cross and follow Jesus. We will be filled with the joy and peace of God to overflowing measures as we yeild our hearts and minds to Gods leadership. That is the standard life or no life( death) Post Reply
