Makes you think!
Sandi, it does. As I have often argued of late, there is a wealth of wisdom in the Old Church writings that modern Christianity seems to ignore.
Much of "modern Christianity" lately seems to ignore the Bible altogether.
Linda, it often seems like modern Christianity has the form of Christianity, but not the power of it.
A worthy sentence many more need to read, including myself.
Oh, and me too Nylon12, me too. I tend too quickly to the sins of others and not enough to the sins of myself.
Yup, gotta focus on others so we don't have time to contemplate on how miserable we are.
My ability to focus on the sins of others is remarkable; upon my own, much less so.
"Judge not..."I try to repent every day and ask His forgiveness; and praise Him for his blessings.Thank you, TB.You all be safe and God bless.
Linda, it is something I think most of us struggle with. But as far as the East is from the West, so far has He removed our sin from us.
Comments are welcome (and necessary, for good conversation). If you could take the time to be kind and not practice profanity, it would be appreciated. Thanks for posting!
