The Meaning of Life

Man in his natural state understands that this life is short and temporary. Each person from the time they start to wonder as a child about the world around them eventually asks

Why are We Here?
Why do people die?
What Happens When We die?

What makes a man (or women) press on tword the future?
Why do people live day to day in quiet Desperation awaiting that final moment with the fear of the unknown in their hearts? All people regardless of race, creed or color experience the difference between right and wrong at a very young age. Even an infant is capable of manipulation and toddlers are quite capable of lying without being shown how. It is our natural condition from birth and that is the problem that is being addressed in this note...

IMAGINE THAT

Imagine for a moment that everything you know about something you were taught all of your life is totally wrong. Well when I first read some of the things I am about to share I was no less amazed than you are about to be.. I mean how can something as age old and timeless as Christianity and the general view of it by most people be in complete contrast to what is said in the actual Bible? (well have you ever actually read one?) probably not, but you remember what you were told.

Here some examples:

Religion and most Churches will say the following about Salvation:

RELIGION SAYS

A) Keep the 10 commandments of the law

THE BIBLE SAYS

B) Rom_3:20 Therefore by the deeds of the law there shall no flesh be justified in his sight: for by the law is the knowledge of sin.

Rom_3:2...

Contentment by Pastor.Mike Schroeder

Contentment in a Discontented World

” Not that I speak in respect of want: for I have learned, in whatsoever state I am, therewith to be content. I know both how to be abased, and I know how to abound: every where and in all things I am instructed both to be full and to be hungry, both to abound and to suffer need. I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me”

Phil 4:11-12 The economic downturn we now find ourselves in has had an affect on most of us, but some more so than others, particularly those among us who find themselves out of work and facing hardships that were unfathomable just a few short years ago. Yet the apostle tells us in the above passage that we are to be content in this state.

Be content in a state of poverty? Ha! Is he kidding, or what? This i...

How To Handle Biblical Contradiction

Establishing Dispensations:

A certain order, system, or arrangement; administration or management.

The divine ordering of the affairs of the world, an appointment, arrangement, or favor by God.

A divinely appointed order or age: the old Mosaic, or Jewish, dispensation; the new gospel, or Christian, dispensation, a dispensing with, doing away with, or doing without something.

Paul Establishes a new administration:

1Co_14:37 If any man think himself to be a prophet, or spiritual, let him acknowledge that the things that I write unto you are the commandments of the Lord.

2Co_12:1 It is not expedient for me doubtless to glory. I will come to visions and revelations of the Lord.

Rom_3:21 But now the righteousness of God without the law is manifested, being witnessed by the...

A WORLD FULL OF BITTERNESS:

I have had my share of dealings with many different types of people over the years and fortunately have been able to learn something from all of them. I have realized in my 48 years on this earth that people who do not know how to let go of their past will never embrace their future. They usually have a hard time forgiving and accepting others for their faults and shortcomings. (and I have been burned quite a few times). As I have matured I discovered that we are all deeply flawed on some level, usually at the hands of others, whether it is parents, siblings or friends. I personally find that petty shallow people that do not forgive have severe deep seated issues that hold them back and their life is a direct reflection of it...

What is the real problem?

The Gospel:

1. Know your condition.

“For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God;” (Romans 3:23). God loves you and wants you to be a part of His family. So what’s wrong? Why does God feel so far away? Why does it feel like God is not around at all? The answer is sin. Almost everyone is familiar with the 10 Commandments and can even name a few. Contrary to popular belief, the 10 Commandments don’t get you to Heaven. They are actually there to show you why you’re not going to Heaven. Think of God’s Law like a mirror. They are showing you “how you look” in God’s eyes. Do you want to know His standards? OK. First off, never lie in your life. You should never steal any item...

So you just don’t get it

A lot of people ask in the back of their mind’s, how can that person be so into God and the Bible? “I just don’t get it”. Why don’t some people “get it”?
Lets see what God says from His book.

God says that lost people are blinded in their minds by the trappings of this life and the god of this world. ARE YOU BLINDED?
2 Corinthians 4:3 But if our gospel be hid, it is hid to them that are lost:
2 Corinthians 4:4 In whom the god of this world hath blinded the minds of them which believe not, lest the light of the glorious gospel of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine unto them.

The Bible says that if you just don’t get it, It is because you feel convicted and guilty when confronted with the notion of a just God...

ATTENTION ALL negative non believing naysayers

STOP BLAMING GOD FOR THE CRAP THAT PEOPLE DO (CHRISTIANS INCLUDED). That’s like blaming the actions of a bad child on good parents. The parents may have raised the child right and gave good instruction and the child can still do something wrong. Ultimately because we have free will it was the choice of the child not the parent. God gave mankind a FREE WILL to make choices, both good and Bad. That does not make the evil in the world the fault of an UN- Loving God, it only proves that man is in a fallen state, capable of bad things and God lets our free will reign.

(Rom_5:12 Wherefore, as by one man sin entered into the world, and death by sin; and so death passed upon all men, for that all have sinned:)

…Good Parent, Disobedient Kids

If GOD intervened it to stop every bad action c...

Belief in things you cant see.

We have hope that the lost soul cannot comprehend. The scriptures give us Hope of eternal life. Lost people claim we cannot prove that as a reality, actually i can quantify my relationship with God much in the same way a lost person relates to a loved one. The feeling of love and the bond between two people is an emotional response that is just as real and still very intangible. So they cannot disprove the reality of my relationship with God anymore than they can prove that love exists between two people. The fact that I have not seen my savior does not make His presence and our relationship any less felt or real. You cannot see electricity but its power can be harnessed, manifested and contained much in the same way the Lord says that the Holy Spirit dwells in a believer...
