You will never ve able to convince them that the "religion" that they are practicing is and exercise in fuitility. <BR/><BR/>As I see that you Brad are aware of the fact that the so-called "God of the Old Testament" Melchizedek/Jehovah/Jesus are one and the same. And if this holds true, and that He is the God in whom there is no shadow of turning, Who is no liar, Who is the same yesterday, today, for ever, then Modern day Christendom has a rude awakening awaiting them.<BR/><BR/>Wake up people, read the Word----and remember:<BR/><BR/>Psalms 118:8, btw, read verse :9, too.<BR/><BR/>JUST the WORD--Please!<BR/><BR/>PeaceKing's Kidhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00811979361611562267noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3645116720985618864.post-63000996328009564282008-08-23T07:23:00.000-04:002008-08-23T07:23:00.000-04:00"It was like putting pure white next to what everyone thought was white only to find out that was off white, dirty white, not pure white. Until truth was standing next to a lie we may be fooled into thinking the lie is truth." A powerful analogy that speaks volumes. Impressive blog but the content outshines even the appearance! :) God bless!Jan Rosshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01037034763821122716noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3645116720985618864.post-69164226122422869782008-08-21T15:22:00.000-04:002008-08-21T15:22:00.000-04:00Caledonian Jim: Thanks for stopping and sharing your honest observations of our world. From my perspective the fact that people have hated in the name of, and on behalf of religion, should not reflect on God. God didn't create religions, humans did. God is love and showed it by sending his only Son to die in the hands of hatred to free us from the bonds of hatred. In faith we can accept this or reject it.<BR/><BR/><A HREF="http://soundofasoftbreath.blogspot.com/2008/03/religion-or-christ.html" REL="nofollow">Religion or Christ?</A> <BR/>"So how was it that a man who was so religious ultimately became nothing more than a common murderer? It is because religion can be blinding. Religion can be a destructive force. Religious people conspired to put Jesus to death. And religious people put young Stephen to death as well." <BR/><BR/>Kgraham, Cindy, Tony, and Tony C: Thank you for visiting my blog and taking the time to comment.

If so, religion is doing a pretty poor job of instructing us .Caledonian Jimhttp://www.caledonian-comment.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3645116720985618864.post-21491667951914985602008-08-16T19:06:00.000-04:002008-08-16T19:06:00.000-04:00Jesus was hated because God pre-ordained it before the foundation of the world. :-)Guy Vestalhttp://www.guyvestal.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3645116720985618864.post-72667709034608709042008-08-08T09:22:00.000-04:002008-08-08T09:22:00.000-04:00Great Post. To know that even though the world hates us as christians, He was hated first. That lets you know that you are on the right track. Seems odd, but if people are generally "FOR" something by the droves, you might want to stay away from it. But the truth of the Gospel of Jesus and Him crucified, isn't popular and well liked by people.

It is amazing that even today, the culture seems more willing to accept Allah than Jesus.<BR/><BR/>It's a real war and a real battle. The enemy, the father of lies, hates the truth, so his world still hates Jesus.Tonyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11404061538931018780noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3645116720985618864.post-59819764808912126882008-08-06T09:36:00.000-04:002008-08-06T09:36:00.000-04:00Brad- an excellent and insightful post!Cindyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12030074737745524449noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3645116720985618864.post-51020026265278202672008-08-06T09:02:00.000-04:002008-08-06T09:02:00.000-04:00I really appreciate the way you share your heart for Him here. Someday, when my children are older and my brain clearer, I hope to delve into some good stuff on my site too, ourdailycrumb.blogspot.com, but I'm not there yet. My mommy brain is only eating crumbs right now, so that's all that I have to share!! Anyway, thanks for sharing!!Kgrahamhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04646957346910880006noreply@blogger.com
