"Good luck my friend, but don't allow yourself to "try to answer all". I have to seek my own answers, and I know that is not what a minister who is trying to do the lords work of gathering wants to hear. Find yourself in prayer, and you will learn the "next" step. Let God speak through you, and not the words of LWC. "


Wow....how insightful is this!!

Allow me to go one step further. I probably won't even revisit this site to see the comments to this post LOL

I believe that God made the Bible to be "individual". I think it is entirely possible, even probable, that two people can read the same verse and (depending on the needs of that individual) receive two different meanings from that same verse.....and both be correct.

I don't believe in denominations (correct me LWC if I'm wrong, but I have never found that word in the Bible) and for the most part don't trust most people who claim to be "Christians". I've found over the years that "Christians" have done more to promote the devil that those who actually claim to be satan worshippers. Mostly with gossip and their judgmental attitude. I've found that those who are living a life that God wants them to live don't have to talk a good game; they are living it. And by living it; leading by example.

I recently heard an expression that "Christians shoot their wounded." I must say that I have to agree. It appears to me, as a follower and believer of God, that no one deserves or needs the power and love of God than those who are at their lowest point in life. I've actually witnessed one denomination to "break fellowship" with a member because of their drug addiction. I belived and still believe, that that was my signal to pray and work harder.

Just an old woman's opinion.

I agree pretty much 100%.
