Welcome

Welcome to my blog. I am happy you have decided to visit. I will do my best to keep it up. Most of my posts will be bible related and I hope that they are true and encouraging.

Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies and God of all comfort, who comforts us in all our affliction, so that we may be able to comfort those who are in any affliction, with the comfort with which we ourselves are comforted by God. For as we share abundantly in Christ's sufferings, so through Christ we share abundantly in comfort too. 2 Corinthians 1:3-5

I ran across this quote on the Southwestern Seminary Website: The quote comes from a pastor in College Station, Texas!

What do you think?

Osborne explained that Jesus’ teaching on eating His flesh and drinking His blood was given to distinguish between true and false disciples. Bringing it to a present-day context, Osborne said, “Let me be clear about something. You are not a disciple because you tithe. You are not a disciple because you go to church … because you clap after a song … because you hold your hand up when you worship … because you weep.”
“You’re a disciple when you understand absolutely who Jesus Christ is, you believe that, (and) you surrender to it. And it doesn’t matter what He says, it doesn’t matter how He says it, it doesn’t matter where He tells you to go, it doesn’t matter how He tells you to go, you are all in. That is a disciple. That is what He’s looking for

    hmmm.....well, i guess that as the pastor is from Texas, I ought to agree wholeheartedly, but I only agree with half (not with half a heart) of his comment.....

    The first half,“Let me be clear about something. You are not a disciple because you tithe. You are not a disciple because you go to church … because you clap after a song … because you hold your hand up when you worship … because you weep.” - I agree 100%

    it is the second part that I do not.....I will explain later though
