On what basis are you so sure about yourself? Since the human heart deceitfully wicked are we to assume you have it mastered, and filter your fine articulations through a holy grail of understanding? I remember Someone once said, "you cats who think your without sin, righteous and have it all figured out then pick up a stone and start chunking." Funny thing is, they all walked away. It seems you opted to throw. Interesting.<BR/><BR/>MoMohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02727726078767729895noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27882134.post-22090695670480421482007-10-23T12:32:00.000-06:002007-10-23T12:32:00.000-06:00Still thinking about these words, John...and find ...Still thinking about these words, John...and find that they indeed resound in my spirit--for sometimes we have enough and need to rearrange it and be better stewards of what the LORD has already given us.<BR/><BR/>Then I think upon this first comment and wonder, Mr. chspurgeon, if I was a seeker, looking for a Savior...would I find Him through you? How are you making the body of Christ look, sir? Take stock of that plank in your eye, for I fear you may be a stumbling stone for many...though I do not know you at all. My Jesus does. And I pray that you become more like Him and less like the brood of vipers, the pharisees. What does the mirror show when you look in it, sir? Not much like my Savior, I'm afraid. Be careful then how you speak and how you reflect the LORD to others.<BR/>Sincerely and with Agape,<BR/>Holly SmithHollyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00794673914973256109noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27882134.post-26895267670802952552007-10-22T12:19:00.000-06:002007-10-22T12:19:00.000-06:00John, thank you.

I needed that, to remember that I ache not for another world, but for God to put the world to rights. Thank God, the resurrection of Christ promises all creation will be made new... <BR/><BR/>And to chspurgeon, why do you throw a sucker punch like that and then hide behind another name? You seem like a pretty angry man.Sam Jolmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17320491030452089055noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27882134.post-58069539595891024792007-10-19T21:18:00.000-06:002007-10-19T21:18:00.000-06:00It is truly sad that those who feel superior would...It is truly sad that those who feel superior would choose to adopt a false name to throw stones.

Couldn't "Isn't there more?!" be the cry that inevitably comes from those who are emerging into lives preoccupied by attempts to heal wounds (which is really nothing more than striving to satisfy the the lust of the flesh, lust of the eyes and the pride of life)? Could your "path less traveled" really be wide and well-worn? Could your own wanderings - purposeless journey - be leading you to the same conclusion Solomon came to, "All is vanity - fear God and keep his commandments, for this is the whole duty of man."? Are you really surprised where the trail is leading or has ended in light of the fact that, based on this blog, you seem to have forsaken "The Way"?<BR/><BR/>Just questions to ponder.<BR/><BR/>CHSCHSpurgeonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16569028132778472147noreply@blogger.com
