Good morning! How are we faithing? You know, I try to help you all see scripture revealed and not interject my opinion but rather what it bears out. Many teachings in different denominations , well, I can't justify in the scriptures. Oh I can see where the ideas are derived but sometimes, man, it's a stretch. I also realize that many of the details that split churches are foolishness. They simply don't matter when compared to the cross. More than anything I want to promote thought and your own search for God's truth. I am one who believes what the first church people were taught and pontificate accordingly. Many religious leaders centuries later did indeed change or rather twist concepts a tad and for those ideas, I have to dismiss. The important facts are this; none come to the father but by the son, Jesus.
Belief;
Joh 3:16 -18
For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved. He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.
Be it known unto you all, and to all the people of Israel, that by the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, whom ye crucified, whom God raised from the dead, even by him doth this man stand here before you whole. This is the stone which was set at nought of you builders, which is become the head of the corner. Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved.

Confession;
Act 4:10-12Be it known unto you all, and to all the people of Israel, that by the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, whom ye crucified, whom God raised from the dead, even by him doth this man stand here before you whole. This is the stone which was set at nought of you builders, which is become the head of the corner.

These things are first. These things must be the foundation or the house will fall under any kind of wind of doctrine. Establish yourselves while there is time. Come to Jesus and we will explore all the other things contained in the Word.
remember Jerry...remember Mark...remember Earl...remember the children and be ready to protect the innocent...
Heavenly Father,
Thank you for salvation. Thank you for your love. Open our eyes to your truth and not some philosopher. Grant us peace and wisdom so we can truly enjoy reading your Word and not distress over doctrine. Let us see the words jump off the pages and reveal what we need to live on. Bless those who are beat down and thinking unnatural thoughts. Lift them up so they can serve yo in peace and love. In Jesus name we pray, amen
