No1 Can Steal Your Salvation

One argument that people tend to make regarding salvation or “being saved” is whether or not you can lose it or not. Paul said in Colossians 1:21-23: “If indeed you continue in the faith” means it is possible you might not continue in faith. In other words, there is eternal security in Christ as long as you stay in Christ. No one can steal your salvation or force you into losing your salvation. God will not let you go. However, I believe the word teaches us that it is possible for a Christians to forfeit or give up his salvation.

As I stated earlier, an individual gets saved by receiving Jesus as Savior and Lord by faith…In other words confessing with your mouth and believing in your heart. Jesus was, and is, a gift from God to the world. Therefore, salvation is a gift. There is only one way to obtain a gift, and that is to receive it. You can’t buy it, you cannot earn it, and there is nothing you can do to become worthy of it. The moment you buy something, earn it, or work hard enough to receive it, it ceases to be a gift. It, rather, becomes a reward for works-or it is earned, such as a salary, which is compensation for work done.

If you did not earn your salvation by doing works, then you cannot lose it by works. Somehow we seem to believe that the Blood of Jesus is powerful enough to save us, but not powerful enough to keep us.

He died for you…why would he let you go?

Mother's Empty Chair

Just wanted 2 share this story....ENJOY!

A woman’s daughter had asked the local minister to come and pray with her mother. When the minister arrived, he found the woman lying in bed with her head propped up on two pillows. An empty chair sat beside her bed. The minister assumed that the woman had been informed of his visit.”I guess you were expecting me, he said.’ No, who are you?” said the mother. The minister told her his name and then remarked, “I saw the empty chair and I figured you knew I was going to show up.”

“Oh yeah, the chair,” said the bedridden woman. “Would you mind closing the door?” Puzzled, the minster shut the door.”I have never told anyone this, not even my daughter,” said the woman.”But all of my life I have never known how to pray. At church I used to hear the pastor talk about prayer, but it went right over my head.” I abandoned any attempt at prayer,” the woman continued,” until one day four years ago; my best friend said to me, “Betty, prayer is just a simple matter of having a conversation with Jesus. Here is what I suggest. “Sit down in the chair; place an empty chair in front of you, and in faith see Jesus on chair. It’s not spooky because he promised, ‘I will be with you always’. “Then just speak to him in the same way you’re doing with me right now.” So, I tried it and I’ve liked it so much that I do it a couple of hours every day.  I’m careful though. If my daughter saw me talking to an empty chair, she’d either have a nervous breakdown or send me off to the funny farm.” The minister was deeply moved by the story and encouraged the woman to continue on the journey. Then he prayed with her, anointed her with oil, and returned to the church. Two nights later the daughter called to tell the minister that her mother had died that afternoon. Did she die in peace?” he asked. Yes, when I left the house about two o’clock, she called me over to her bedside, told me she loved me and kissed me on the cheek. When I got back from the store and hour later, I found her. But there was something strange about her death. Apparently, just before Mother died, she leaned over and rested her head on the chair beside the bed. What do you make of that?” The minister wiped a tear from his eye and said, “ I wish we could all go like that.”

Prayer is one of the best free gifts we receive.

I asked God for water, He gave me an ocean.

I asked God for a friend, He gave me all of you…

If God brings you to it, He will bring you through it.

Happy moments, praise God.


Difficult moments, seek God.

Quiet moments, worship God.

Painful moments, trust God.

Every moment, thank God.

Doin U: At Who’s Expense?



“Doin U” is living your life for you: not a means to an end for others!

This means that I should exist for my own sake, neither sacrificing myself to others, nor sacrificing others to myself! The pursuit of my own rational self-interest, and happiness, is the highest moral purpose of my life!

If I must deal with others,

It should be as Traders, in a pure capitalist system.

No charity! No sympathy! Just business,

an exchange of value for value.

Or in dating terms “Friends With Benefits”!

But where does love fit into this system?

See if everything is viewed as a business arrangement between

Traders without charity, then how can you have love?

Love is supposed to be selfless.

Or is this that New School LOVE?

Where LOVE is selfish. …

If you see someone of value,

and they see value in you…..you

want access to this value, so you

arrange a business transaction.

Love used to be worth the risk smh

Now people are turning into Modern day Hoes

Harsh Reality



Disenchantment comes from the realization that the world isn’t what you perceived it to be! People lie, cheat, and steal and get away with it. Murders become COLD CASES! Marriages end in divorce…while mothers and fathers become Baby Mamas & Baby Daddies.

There are people who only deal with you because they think it might be beneficial to them…(Alcohol, Weed, Money, & Sex).

We are raised in this fairy tale world, where there aren’t any moral grey areas, where good and bad are clear, where there was never any real doubt over which side would win in the end! (Good of course)…but each horrifying death reported in the paper... made you a little more cynical: a little deader inside.

Maybe this sense of disenchantment came from not a flawed society, but a rather growing realization that we ourselves are flawed? Nothing’s more depressing than realizing that you can’t live up to your own hopes, that you’ll never live out your dreams, that you probably let those you care about down every day!

DAMN THAT’S A HARSH REALITY!

OR MAYBE YOU CAN JUST BEAT THE ODDS!

YOU DECIDE

Is There Enough Room In Your Marriage For Another

This whole “Marriage” subject


has gotten me thinking

about monogamy.


…..Not whether or not I can or have


been monogamous, because that’s a

non issue (not to mention I love my fiancé and value my life as well)

My concern is that people have totally pushed morals to the side.


In the past sharing yourself with more than 1 person was frowned upon….

Not to mention catching sh*t penicillin can’t cure lls and the pain it cost your partner

isn’t quite worth the risk.

The Morals of Marriage have gone by the waist side for what people consider to be “Happiness”

I did some research!

I found a book called “The Ethical Slut”

This book discusses how to live an active


Life with multiple concurrent sexual relationships

in a fair and honest way. Discussion topics include

how to deal with the practical difficulties and opportunities in finding and keeping partners, maintaining

relationships with others, and strategies for personal growth.

 

 

To me this makes a slut sound ethical duh smh… which I’m not here to judge…just stating what I’ve interpreted and to me that makes no sense….It implies that you can love someone, want him or her to be happy…but that shouldn’t change by having sex with additional people.

May be this makes sense to others,

but not to me….

 

When I was younger I probably would have thought it was possible..


but giving yourself to one is the ultimate commitment if you ask me.



The book also posits that an artificial ‘economy of scarcity’ in sex leads to jealousy and possessiveness.



This is pretty much saying that

because sex is ‘rare’ it has and increased value, and is therefore

treasured unreasonably? It’s not anti-monogamy, but it’s pro-polygamy.



Don’t you find that these things don’t usually work

in real life? I know I want my partner

To be happy, but I also want all of her hugs and kisses to myself?

What do you think?
