I am a ordained reverend of united faith ministries I do not belong to any denomination. i have cleared my mind of every thing i was taught in the church's most of which were solely mans ideals of what the scriptures meant. i read and re read the bible and then pray for understanding and then i read and pray some more. i pray that i get the message god is trying to tell me and if i don't i pray that he points out my error. i don't believe in judging people or condemning people like Christ said let he who is with out sin cast the first stone. and I'm not totally with out sin my self so how can i judge some one Else's. but what i can offer them is what the scriptures say and be there for them. i have my own beliefs and every one else has theirs who am i to say what is right and what is wrong. all the answers are in the bible for us to individually figure out own our own. never take my word or any one else's word on it read your bible and pray on it be cause Christ says ask and ye will receive. i have a couple of blogs that im working on it may take a couple of days to get all the scriptures together so please keep checking back. this is just a small part of my faith it would take a long time to explain it all. here is a chapter i would like every one to think about.
2 Corinthians, chapter 5 1: For we know that if the earthly tent we live in is destroyed, we have a building from God, a house not made with hands, eternal in the heavens. 2: Here indeed we groan, and long to put on our heavenly dwelling, 3: so that by putting it on we may not be found naked. 4: For while we are still in this tent, we sigh with anxiety; not that we would be unclothed, but that we would be further clothed, so that what is mortal may be swallowed up by life. 5: He who has prepared us for this very thing is God, who has given us the Spirit as a guarantee. 6: So we are always of good courage; we know that while we are at home in the body we are away from the Lord, 7: for we walk by faith, not by sight. 8: We are of good courage, and we would rather be away from the body and at home with the Lord. 9: So whether we are at home or away, we make it our aim to please him. 10: For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ, so that each one may receive good or evil, according to what he has done in the body. 11: Therefore, knowing the fear of the Lord, we persuade men; but what we are is known to God, and I hope it is known also to your conscience. 12: We are not commending ourselves to you again but giving you cause to be proud of us, so that you may be able to answer those who pride themselves on a man's position and not on his heart. 13: For if we are beside ourselves, it is for God; if we are in our right mind, it is for you. 14: For the love of Christ controls us, because we are convinced that one has died for all; therefore all have died. 15: And he died for all, that those who live might live no longer for themselves but for him who for their sake died and was raised. 16: From now on, therefore, we regard no one from a human point of view; even though we once regarded Christ from a human point of view, we regard him thus no longer. 17: Therefore, if any one is in Christ, he is a new creation; the old has passed away, behold, the new has come. 18: All this is from God, who through Christ reconciled us to himself and gave us the ministry of reconciliation; 19: that is, in Christ God was reconciling the world to himself, not counting their trespasses against them, and entrusting to us the message of reconciliation. 20: So we are ambassadors for Christ, God making his appeal through us. We beseech you on behalf of Christ, be reconciled to God. 21: For our sake he made him to be sin who knew no sin, so that in him we might become the righteousness of God. |
