What does this means?

Peter 2:5, NIV: "you also, like living stones, are being built into a spiritual house to be a holy priesthood, offering spiritual sacrifices acceptable to God through Jesus Christ."
*
Living Stones basically means Alive....Stone denoting Church Building, the Church is about people.

Spiritual house = You're a house for God

Holy Priesthood = That is what you are as Christian...you're a priest to God, it is not just ordain priest in office. Meaning you have the right to pray to God for yourself and for others.

Spiritual Sacrifice = means you offer your life living a spiritual life that please God even though you may not feel like it..that is what sacrifice means.


Jesus says, you want to follow Him, you got to deny yourself. This "self" is about the sinful life. I don't really need to explain what is a sinful life, I think people generally know this in their soul.


Hope this helps.

Wsup fellow believers.


If you're not feeling well, you can pray or ask someone to pray for you for healing.

But if you need to see doctors or take medicine, please do so also.

Why?

Because medicine or doctors....do you know all in creation belongs to God?

the component of the medicine, even the chemicals ...without God's creation nothing in existence can form the medicine out of thin air.

Even for doctors, God is the one who give man the wisdom, the know how ...even scientists. Every profession there is, God is the one who breath life and can lead his people into medicine, science etc.

What about non believer doctors? To me, it's okay because God is the highest being who gave Man their lot in life, it is unwise to think by going to doctors for whatever reason is being unfaithful to God.

That is just being religiously stupid, sorry for that harsh word but it's just what it is.

Nothing wrong with buying Insurance imo.

Churches with missions helps the poor wherever they are lead to help.

Why is it nobody says anything bad about that. Just because it's the Church's doing?

No, the core principle is to lift people out of their plight, that involves finances, the principle is the same on insurance which is getting you out of your plight if needed.

What if the main income earner can no longer earn income? Some people will say, Oh you know Christians during Bible says all suffered so in that religious thought they think it is God's will for people to suffer...so just depend on God.

But you forgot, it is not God who wants anyone to suffer but the devil. Read the Bible carefully, it is always the devil who wants evil for man but God always want and intend good for his beloved.

God allows it but that doesn't mean it is what God heart's desire. We need to learn to differentiate that.

Righteousness because of Faith in Christ is what move God

Romans 3:22 (NIV) - But now, apart from the law, the righteousness of God has been revealed, as attested by the Law and the Prophets. This righteousness is given through faith in Jesus Christ to all who believe. There is no difference between Jew and Gentile,


Blessed New Year to all of you fellow believers of various denominations.

We need to believe we are righteous because of our Faith in Christ. This is how God has ordained righteousness under the New Covenant which He cuts with all of us. Because until we learn to let go our confidence in our works as a gauge before God, we will never really experience the divine and the miraculous power of God.

Faith is what moves God and Faith is what basically attracts God. And it's not just simply faith in faith but faith in Jesus Christ particularly. And the Faith that believes God will.......

Perhaps there are circumstances in your life that has caused you to be disappointed towards God. I'm here to tell you many times it is because of the lack of believe that caused us to be in stagnant in life, that has caused disappointment.

Faith is so important if not critical. It is severe that God himself said this in

Hebrews 10:38 (NIV) - But My righteous one will live by faith; and if he shrinks back, I will take no pleasure in him."

Perhaps you are in the season where you wondered why God is being silent or that everything seems to be wrong, I'm here today to let you know, you got to re-study on why Faith is so important..important to God, important to your life.

I hope this devotion will help you.

God Bless.

I got a question
You know last time Robert huckle was indicted for raping orphans and other kids from Christians homes.
Would want to know why God allowed this to happen ?
These children, aren’t they suppose to be god’s children ?
Why was huckle allowed to dress as a sheep skin when he is a wolf ?
He pretended to be a Christian worker
How would these children ever be able to grow as Christians when their own bodies has been violated ?

A lot of people blame God for allowing evil in this world but they forgotten this world is a fallen world where the devil roams.

God has said it, this world will be destroyed one day and a new Heaven and a New Earth will come in to replace it where God himself is the ruler.

Until then evil will always happen until judgement day come where evil will end.

With that being said, does it mean God does not protect his own? Question to ask is that have those people claim a prayer protection over their children? Have they been close to God or just Christian by name? Have they been authentic and honest to God or have they just been playing religion?

We don't really know. There are many things we don't know but God knows.

Despite of that being said, there are people who have been raped and God raise that person to help others today. One such person is Joyce Meyer. She was rape by her dad at young age and yet God restored to her so many things, she's used by God mightily to teach and help others today. Sure she was scarred but you can hear her own testimony how she have been alleviated from her past.

But question is we can’t deny asking ourselves what is to become of these children. After the rape, if they choose to sway, as a result They felt they were allowed to be raped, then wouldn’t it be bad testimony to the others ?

Erm, I don't think anyone should think they are allowed to be raped, it's a violation and a crime.

I think perhaps you're thinking to ask why did God allowed them to be rape, I would be the 1st to tell you, No, God would not be willing anyone to be raped.

But why it did happened, as I've said, it's a fallen world.

Isaiah 65:17 (NIV) - "See, I will create new heavens and a new earth. The former things will not be remembered, nor will they come to mind.

Revelation 21:4 (NIV) - He will wipe every tear from their eyes. There will be no more death' or mourning or crying or pain, for the old order of things has passed away."



The phrase "old order of things" refers to the current fallen state of this world..it will be no more.

New Heaven and Earth...there will be no hospital, doctors, no pain, no more diseases, no illness, no more sinful nature of things like rape, killing, etc.

This is where God is the established ruler and king and Jesus Christ will govern.

This is the place where you can expect God to take care of things. smile.gif

So are you saying that God allowed it or not allowed it because it’s a fallen world.

And if he allowed it, does he give us a reason to know why or we have to just know that the reason is something beyond our understanding ?

And If you said he won’t allow that to happen but why did it happen without him to stop it. Because he is omnipotent he could have stopped it but it happened.

Why a fallen world would prevent god from stepping in?

Those children. Is it possible they would be so hurt that they will never return to god ? It cannot be said that all of them would be like joyce Meyer.
*
I don't claim to know everything there is about God but I know a little of which I will try to help you understand.


John 18:36 (NIV) - Jesus said, "My kingdom is not of this world. If it were, my servants would fight to prevent my arrest by the Jewish leaders. But now my kingdom is from another place."

This the evidence verse in the Bible.

We believe Jesus Christ is God represented, meaning to say whatever He says, is basically what God the Father says. This verse in John 18.36 helps us to understand this current world is not's God's Kingdom else God would have intervened and acted as stated.

However I believe..God is sovereign and omnipotent towards people who are serious with Him, people who will adamantly stick out their faith towards God no matter what. People who are genuine, having a n honest relationship..people who dare come to God despite of their flaws and weaknesses (not claiming people who are 100% holy or 100% perfect). Such I believe...can have miraculous grace with God..meaning having his protection and blessings.

but as to why some who may be... Christians but don't have such grace...I wouldn't know why, Only God's knows the real reason. Perhaps it's faith problem, perhaps there is unforgiveness in their life, perhaps there is something in their life that allows spiritual enemies (devil) to attack, perhaps this and perhaps that. Point is...it's between them and God, we will never really know.


As for your last question, yes it's possible that people will be so hurt they make a resolution to never return to God. Yet at the same time, nothing is impossible, there is always hope even for people who are extremely angry with God. I believe there is always hope. smile.gif

Err Robert huckle raped 6 month old babies living in Christian orphanages. Don’t think there is a faith issue for the poor soul 6 month old baby.

He completely brainwashed a 2 yr old to be his sex slave for 2 years. He even boasted that she is an obedient dog to him in the dark web.

There has got to be a reason why god let it happen. You mean we will never know? Then how does this translate to his grace if we never know ?
*
Of course, when it comes to toddlers and children it's not a faith issue. This is the same issue of priest molesting children and in Churches. It's equally appalling.

What I was talking relates to professing & practicing Christians at the age where they have understanding of mind.

It is something never condone but why God let it happened. I wouldn't know. What I do know is that (though it may sound cruel) they are alive, scarred but doesn't necessarily mean they're doomed forever in their life. With God, dead ashes can be brought to life.

One thing you need to discern, just because it's a Christian orphanages, does not automatically means everyone in there (Children included) are believers of Christ. Am I trying to say God doesn't care about children? No, I'm saying this is a fallen world, where if you take a gun and shoot people, people will die. You take a knife to stab someone, that someone will be seriously injured or die. God is not going to stop every Gun killing or knife stabbing unless there is an intervention prayers being petitioned by faith by a person who is genuine in his /her faith.

I think it is not realistic to expect an Utopia world in this fallen and corrupted world. Why do I say this? Because this world will be destroyed by God on judgement day. It will be gone. The world is not going get better, it will get worse as time goes by. We Christians believe as judgment day draws closer, the devil will cause more chaos and havoc. Also imo, It is not right to demand of God in this corrupted world when many do not understand the problem of sin.

The problem of sin is a very huge topic and is the cause why the world has evil.

If God did not spare his "own" Son, how will He not also, along with Him, freely give us all things?

Romans 8:31-32 (NIV) - 31 What then shall we say in response to these things? If God is for us, who can be against us? 32 He who did not spare His own Son but gave Him up for us all, how will He not also, along with Him, freely give us all things?

Good day to you fellow believers.

Today's devotion phrase is quite long. But in short, what God is saying is that, God has obliged himself to his own children. God has not oblige to take care just anybody, not to this fallen world because of sin. But God has oblige to take care for people who has come into agreement with his new covenant.

There are many voices out there that always try to cause doubt on God. Sometime even our own voices try to convince us, if you know what I mean.

Today I'm here to encourage you, take heart, put your trust in what God says, not in what other people say or even myself saying.

If God did not spare his own son, how will He not also, (along with Christ) gives us all things. In short, never doubt on the promise of God's Salvation. Never doubt on the promise of God's providence for your life. Never doubt on the promise of God's willingness to answer your prayers. (Just make sure they are not evil prayers, conceited prayer, etc).

If there's something that is causing a drift between you and God, take a look at Romans 8:31-32 as stated above in today's devotion.

God Bless.

Well, do you ever know the situation there in NK? Or imagine yourself being a North Korean that from birth till death is all about Kim propaganda.
This is why I posted this as so far I couldn't get a satisfactory answer to this question.

For kids below 4 years old, I understand that they will go to heaven when death regardless of the kid is Christian or otherwise, as they dont even know the meaning of God.

But for North Koreans?
*
For interest.....There's a small percentage of Christians in North Korea. As to whether a north Korean will get the chance to hear the gospel, I wouldn't know, perhaps they will in their life time. Even if not which is something I doubt, I would think God would be fair to such.

Why do I say this? Well 1 Peter 3:19 tells us that Christ went to preach to people who have departed prior to his coming.

And that is quite interesting actually. This tells me God does consider people who will never get to meet Christ.
