The Upper Room - all things Christian

Faith in God includes faith in His timing.

 

This is exactly the problem with the middle east. Every time someone proposed peaceful coexistence, some idiot decides that peace can only mean doing things his way.

 

Throughout history, wars have been the result of religious differences. Sad, but true. A man's belief in his religion should not automatically make everyone else's beliefs wrong.

 

Unless you have actually gone out and investigated a variety of religions, religion is an accident of birth. You are what your parents are.

I do not believe that an innocent baby born in China will burn in Hell because he is raised in a budist home. My God is merciul and understanding. He alone will judge me. I am not worthy to judge others. I may have opinions, but they are mine alone. God has never come down and thunked me on the head and told me I should be the judge of anyones religion, or way of life.

 

:cheers: It's a shame everyone can't come to that logical realization. There would be no war.

 

There'd still be war. Religion is not the only cause of war.

First Baptist Woodstock GA is pastored by Rev Johnny Hunt, former pastor of Falls Baptist Church up in my neck of the woods, Wake Forest, way back in the day.

Johnny is a fantastic preacher and this church is an awesome place to worship and has been blessed with tremendous growth!

One of my former pastors' daughters, and good friend, goes to First Baptist Woodstock with her family, and my bride and I had the privilege of going to church with them a few mths back!

If you can't make it to your own church service, please join the live broadcasts on Sunday mornings and nights, or watch the archived broadcasts.

Praise the Lord for Pastors like Johnny Hunt and evangelists like Tim Lee!

Good song to close the night out on!

Good night, Lord! It's been an awesome day!

Bless the Lord, O my soul
O my soul
Worship His holy name
Sing like never before
O my soul
I'll worship Your holy name

 

Very well said peppercorns...if only we would all not be so high and mighty as to think we are qualified to judge others.....I've been guilty of it before and every time I was wrong to do so.

Why as I get older I try to remember to let myself know that judging only takes me further away from the God I worship....it doesn't change anyone's behavior.

 

Wanna connect to a great bible teacher?

One of my favorite teaching pastors, Steve Hadley, from Reno NV, has updated his website and it is great!

You can now search past messages by different criteria.

Give it a try!

Pope Francis assures atheists: You don’t have to believe in God to go to heaven

Looks like I may get an opportunity to go somewhere I don't believe exists! Now that will screw with your mind! :mrgreen:

 

There's something about lifting up my hands to the Lord...

... that draws me ever nearer to Him!

.... and humbles me even more.

Good song by Chris Tomlin....
