How's our ride going?
My Uncle, Pastor Bill Bull, posted this to thesheltertree.com ...I think it's worth sharing here also!
“If you’re coasting in your spiritual life…..
you’re going downhill!”
~ Rev. Paul Barber
Theology...
mans attempt to gather truths in our understanding of God.
The Bible...
a living magnificent document to learn from and live by!
The Trinity...
in this short video, Ravi Zacharias best answers the question!
Blessings to all of you! Stay in the word and consult a trusted spiritual advisor if you have questions!
Frustration starts where knowledge ends...never stop reading the Bible and learning what it is that God has planned for us in our walk with him!

to BE-lieve...or not to BE-lieve...
...that the Bible IS the Holy Word of GOD!
Do you believe that every word in the Bible is God inspired?
Do you believe that the Bible is reliable?
Do you believe in the prophetic accuracy of the Bible?
If you know someone who doesn't believe the Bible, ask them what evidence they have that it is wrong.
Make sure you stay in the word. Study your Bible, surround yourself with good Christian people. If you have questions, seek the advise of a trusted spiritual advisor...
REMEMBER...
There is NO plan "B"
Get it right the first time!!

Don't give your stamp of approval to the wrong things!
"Obedience to the commands are imperative to our Christian walk!"
Sermon by Pastor Ron Molina 06.05.11
2 John (niv)
1 The elder,
To the lady chosen by God and to her children, whom I love in the truth—and not I only, but also all who know the truth— 2 because of the truth, which lives in us and will be with us forever:
3 Grace, mercy and peace from God the Father and from Jesus Christ, the Father’s Son, will be with us in truth and love.
Grace we do not deserve!
Mercy we could not live without!
Inner Peace beyond belief!
4 It has given me great joy to find some of your children walking in the truth, just as the Father commanded us. 5 And now, dear lady, I am not writing you a new command but one we have had from the beginning. I ask that we love one another. 6
It's most important that we love one another...that we show our love for God and each other every second of every day!!
And this is love: that we walk in obedience to his commands. As you have heard from the beginning, his command is that you walk in love.
7 I say this because many deceivers, who do not acknowledge Jesus Christ as coming in the flesh, have gone out into the world. Any such person is the deceiver and the antichrist. 8 Watch out that you do not lose what we[a] have worked for, but that you may be rewarded fully. 9 Anyone who runs ahead and does not continue in the teaching of Christ does not have God; whoever continues in the teaching has both the Father and the Son. 10 If anyone comes to you and does not bring this teaching, do not take them into your house or welcome them. 11 Anyone who welcomes them shares in their wicked work.
12 I have much to write to you, but I do not want to use paper and ink. Instead, I hope to visit you and talk with you face to face, so that our joy may be complete.
13 The children of your sister, who is chosen by God, send their greetings.
Philippians 3:12 (niv)
12 Not that I have already obtained all this, or have already arrived at my goal, but I press on to take hold of that for which Christ Jesus took hold of me.
We need to be that person...to help others...to set the example for others...to set a goal to win the prize!!!

Walk by Faith...Not by Sight
3 John (NIV)
A good example is Gaius...
A good example is Gaius...
What ever we do ...do it Faithfully...everything we do!
Our Faith
Our Parenting
Our Job
Let God's word affect every aspect of our lives...be fellow workers for the Truth!!
1 The elder,
1 The elder,
To my dear friend Gaius, whom I love in the truth.
2 Dear friend, I pray that you may enjoy good health and that all may go well with you, even as your soul is getting along well. 3 It gave me great joy when some believers came and testified about your faithfulness to the truth, telling how you continue to walk in it. 4 I have no greater joy than to hear that my children are walking in the truth.
5 Dear friend, you are faithful in what you are doing for the brothers and sisters,[a] even though they are strangers to you. 6 They have told the church about your love. Please send them on their way in a manner that honors God. 7 It was for the sake of the Name that they went out, receiving no help from the pagans. 8 We ought therefore to show hospitality to such people so that we may work together for the truth.
A bad example is Diotrephes...
It is not about us...we are not first!
9 I wrote to the church, but Diotrephes, who loves to be first, will not welcome us. 10 So when I come, I will call attention to what he is doing, spreading malicious nonsense about us. Not satisfied with that, he even refuses to welcome other believers. He also stops those who want to do so and puts them out of the church.
11 Dear friend, do not imitate what is evil but what is good. Anyone who does what is good is from God. Anyone who does what is evil has not seen God.
Make this important in life! Imitate what's right...not what's evil! Does this mean we will not stumble? NO...but keep trying! Imitate what's right!!
Demetrius was a good example...
Always bearing a good testimony!
12 Demetrius is well spoken of by everyone—and even by the truth itself. We also speak well of him, and you know that our testimony is true.
13 I have much to write you, but I do not want to do so with pen and ink. 14 I hope to see you soon, and we will talk face to face.
Peace to you. The friends here send their greetings. Greet the friends there by name.

Be kept blameless...
Sunday ~ May 22nd, 2011 ~ Kurt CherryI Thessalonians 5:14And we urge you, brothers and sisters,warn those who are idle and disruptive,
like soldiers not keeping the ranks!encourage the disheartened,
help the weak, be patient with everyone.
Do not be idle,
or in the life of the church.
Encourage the timid, be patient with everyone.
Do not return evil for evil.
Be joyful always,
Pray continuously. Give thanks!Do not quench the Holy Spirit in your life
I Thessalonians 5:21
tells us to test everything and hold onto the good.
says, the one who calls you is faithful
Be kept blameless.
I Thessalonians 5:24
and He will do it.
Seek The Spirit!

A "C" and "E" Christian?
Oooooh...someone who only goes to church on Christmas and Easter...
a "C" and "E" Christian.
Hebrews 10:25(NIV) 25 not giving up meeting together, as some are in the habit of doing, but encouraging one another—and all the more as you see the Day approaching.
Well, that about says it all...Don't be a "C" and "E" Christian, the Bible says to assemble and I'll bet God intends us to assemble often, not just on those two days!
Today...Pastor Cherry teaches on Romans 1
Purpose
Plan
Promise
Power
Purity
It's all in the book Of Romans!!
Romans 1:16 is especially important to note...
16 For I am not ashamed of the gospel, because it is the power of God that brings salvation to everyone who believes: first to the Jew, then to the Gentile.
Are you ashamed? Or maybe just to busy? Our faith, our salvation, cannot be real, if, we are a "C" and "E" Christian. Faith is not a McDonald's menu. You can't pick and choose the toppings you want on your "Faith" sandwich! You can't super size it...or hold the pickle! You can't ask Jesus to be in your life and then only obey parts of the Bible...and disregard the parts that might not taste good on your "Faith" sandwich.

It's all or none...No compromise...
What will your lifestyle choice be?
Choose God! Choose His gift!
Choose the gift of life!
( I am still working on posts with video from Easter Sunday...I am having technical difficulties...thanks for understanding!)
