@erdenpilger another way to put it is, when I have experienced hardship, it is not enjoyable, but what God has taught me through it is something I never regreted learning.
1) Jesus promised joy and persecution.
It's easy to meditate on all positive promises and forget all the other promises like, the world will hate you. As Christian's we need to prepare for, and discipline ourselves not because we might be persecuted but because we are commanded to anyways. All Gods promises are completely true in the midst of hardship. I want to know this not in doctrine only but in experience. I want to be in a place of hardship and experience all his promises! Whose with me.
Since this is ding dash, we should do something besides just posting news and stuff. Lots of it is good, but we could do more. Get a group started on ding dash to do something out of the ordinary. Any ideas?
Welcome george
@caleb I've been in church meetings where they pray for 5 minutes then discuss and issue, but very few actually look into Gods word for the answers. So yes, its dangerous because no human logic, no matter how honest can ever attain to Gods thoughts. Wonder why so many churches are off?
@erdenpilger your probably right. I know even the the early church fathers were rebuking popes way back in the beginning of the church age.
@kdhartfiel yes, "Christ died for all" and "God desires all to be saved." All refers to all races.
@kdhartfiel I'm curious, what things do they teach that are in error?
What do you ding dashers think of the pope embracing homosexuality? Obviously sinful.
Its nice to be free to share on ding dash, no fact checkers here!
This is a message of salvation from hebrews
@caleb welcome, I listened to your first podcast and it's very good.

Lindsey we as white people are under tremendous stress. It is black against white and our farmers is getting murdered by the day. All me and my family does is to stay on our knees. If you can please pray for our farmers and South Africa. Greetings. Noeline
@sinbach hey, have you heard of the testament of Joseph? The Essenes were the keepers of the Dead Sea scrolls and in the scrolls we have the last words of all of Jacob's sons. Joseph gives a powerful testiment of how he had to deal with potiphers wife, in much detail. If you get Ken Johnsons book, "Ancient testaments of the patriarchs", he translates the testiments of the patriarchs into English. Joseph and several others are very powerful last speeches of how they dealt with sexual immorality.
Paul tells timothy to pay close attention to your teaching and to yourself, for if you do so you will save both yourself and your hearers. Study and know the scriptures and watch yourself closely to make sure your life conforms to the scriptures standard of godliness. The victory or lack of victory of this is the difference between heaven and hell!
