I just dont get it! MERCY LORD!

Hey guys! I mean this world just never fails to amaze me. I really want to thank God for who I am today and I thank him for taking me to higher heights and deeper depths in his word. I pray that he will have mercy on ALL mankind. The bible says we ought to pray one for another and indeed we do for "ALL have sinned and fallen short of his glory" So, those of us who profess we believe should stay in prayer. Prayer is a hard thing to do consistently but it is IMPERATIVE that we stay on our knees! The bible says "broad is the way and wide is the gate that leads to destruction and many are they that enter in, straight is the way and narrow is the gate that leads to heaven and few are they that find it" Matthew 7:14. I need you, you need me and we all need eachother so survive in this walk. Let us pray more and seek HIM MORE than these wordly things. This advert left me speechless! I dont put it here to judge but it really saddens me that this is what our children are to be exposed to! WHO CAN EXPLAIN THIS?


I heard someone say "Many people want Christianity to fit like a nice coat, but in truth, we must fit ourselves into Christianity, for it is already established"
We as a people are becoming toooooooo liberal and this new age stuff will only lead us to HELL!!!!!! God bless you all.

oh noooooooooooooooooo he didnt



Thought ya'll might find this as funny as I thought it was..
Leave that child with me for a week and I will straighten him out.
This family needs prayer!

Train up a child in the way that he should go and when he is old he will not depart from it.

Children, honor thy father and thy mother so that ye shall live a long life.

NARNIA



So, to all those who have not gone to see this movie I implore you to GET OUT THERE NOW!
This movie is so awesome and it draws upon biblical principles and concepts and I wont attempt to give a bootleg review so here is Wikipedia's synopsis of Part 1 "The Lion, The witch and The Wardrobe"
The Chronicles of Narnia present the adventures of children who play central roles in the unfolding history of the fictional realm of Narnia, a place where animals talk, magic is common, and good battles evil. Each of the books (with the exception of The Horse and His Boy) features as its protagonists children from our world who are magically transported to Narnia, where they are called upon to help the lion Aslan to right some wrong in the world of Narnia .
As a christian, this movie was inspiring and thought provoking. Aslan, the "Great Lion," is the central character in the movie.He is a talking lion, King of the Beasts, son of the Emperor-Over-the-Sea; a wise, compassionate, magical authority (both temporal and spiritual); mysterious and beloved guide to the human children who visit; guardian and saviour of Narnia; and ultimately revealed as its creator and destroyer.The author, C. S. Lewis, described Aslan as an alternate version of Christ—that is, as the form that Christ might have appeared in a fantastic world.

The graphics and film tricks are superb! I beg you go see it! The sequel is another story which beautifully draws on the teachings of christ about belief and faith in God. Lucy, the youngest of the children is the only one who believes Aslan ("Jesus") can save them from their enemies/oppressors while the others have doubts and think logically. The Genesis and Revelation of it all is adopting a childlike mind in order to communicate with God (or enter the kindgom of God). Get rid of the logical mind and just believe and it will surprise you what the lord can do.

Matthew 18:2-4
Jesus called a little child to come to him. Jesus stood the child before the followers. Then Jesus said, "I tell you the truth. You must change and become like little children {in your hearts}. If you don't do this, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven. The greatest (most important) person in the kingdom of heaven is the person that makes himself humble like this child.




Mark 10:13-15 13
And people were bringing children to him that he might touch them, but the disciples rebuked them.
14
When Jesus saw this he became indignant and said to them, "Let the children come to me; do not prevent them, for the kingdom of God belongs to such as these.
15
Amen, I say to you, whoever does not accept the kingdom of God like a child 2 will not enter it."
