Joyce, being a christian does not have to be complicated. All we have to do is follow a few simple rules, and our lives are complete, in Jesus!!

Robert, it seems so much easier if we have a pattern to follow! You are welcome to expand more if you wish :)

Judy, the biggest problem with the word SIN is the middle initial. If we eliminate the letter I (self), most of our problems would vanish.

Hi Bobbie Welch, I feel privileged. Looks like you've given your first message on Adland, here on my forum. I praise God for your words of wisdom. I hope to see you again soon my friend!

Hi Jim,

You are so right, and as Val posted in her meaning of Christian, you have to take the ME out of everything.  So many times, the absorption with physical and material things is all that stands between a GOOD Christian and a nominal Christian. 

The other thing that is so much of a problem for me is passing judgement.  It is one thing to say that you will be friends again with someone who has hurt you and then humbled themself to an apology.  It's another to get to the point to be best friends with them again.  I know we do not have the right to judge, but we do - at least I do no matter how hard I try not to.

You have some fantasic discussions going here, Jim.

I'll be back!!

Blessings,

Judy
