  1. Thank you angels4u for responding to this post....I did look at the site you posted and although I "think" it is promoting abstinence from sinful lifestyles, it's not real clear...which gives me pause with regard to the ministry. Any ministry that is vague about what it promotes gives me doubts? Read the "About Us and What We Believe" to see what I am referring to.
  2. Yes, but I'm asking if your children are being taught how to stand in their faith and respond to these things. We have gotten to this point because of the weakness of each generation to be able to stand firmly in their faith against these social issues. So now we are seeing the fruits of this in our society and it's devouring our children because they are not being trained up in the Word with regard to these things.
  3. I saw a very troubling episode of Dr. Phil....that really opened my eyes to how bad it really is and although I have been aware of the issue and have been wondering why the churches I have been to, don't seem to address these issues. I am so very troubled for the kids that are having to deal with this. I've got 30 year old kids that are having to deal with these issues and they are talking about it and really struggling with all of this in society....I can't even imagine what this is doing to little kids brains who are witnessing all of this. Are you having conversations about this in your church, in your homes? I'm just wondering. I have some very strong concerns with regard to this and Romans 1:24 and how Christians are to deal with this issue? Here is the episode if you are interested in what I am talking about:

  5. This is so true Marilyn! And hopefully my son will come to this realization! This is the big mystery though...why do some come to realize when they do, and why do some not? In His Love, Suzanne
  6. My son is at a place where he needs testimony from others rather than mom and dad.......I think that is why I posted this study as I am sure there are other young adults who need this testimony from the Word. Sometimes it's better for mom and dad to pray for someone else to come along as a witness and plant the seeds. Thank you for your reply, I will be sure to take a look. In His Love, Suzanne
  7. As someone who knows many young adults who are seemingly going the way of the world, I wanted to look into the topic of "the mind". I confess that this study was originally done because I have an older son who is totally focused on the things of the world at this time and I did this study with him in mind. I welcome your input and studies with regard to the Word on this matter...as I think it is a very important topic for those of us who wish we had something on hand to help us witness and testify to how important it is to examine what we are "thinking about". It is also a reminder for us as Christians to be "mindful" of these things as well. What Is On Your Mind? Romans 8:5-7 5 For they that are after the flesh do mind the things of the flesh; but they that are after the Spirit the things of the Spirit. 6 For to be carnally minded is death; but to be spiritually minded is life and peace. 7 Because the carnal mind is enmity against God: for it is not subject to the law of God, neither indeed can be. Ephesians 2:3, 4:17 3 Among whom also we all had our conversation in times past in the lusts of our flesh, fulfilling the desires of the flesh and of the mind; and were by nature the children of wrath, even as others. 4:17 This I say therefore, and testify in the Lord, that ye henceforth walk not as other Gentiles walk, in the vanity of their mind, Philippians 3:19 19 Whose end is destruction, whose God is their belly, and whose glory is in their shame, who mind earthly things. Titus 1:15 15 Unto the pure all things are pure: but unto them that are defiled and unbelieving is nothing pure; but even their mind and conscience is defiled. BE RECONCILED AND RENEWED IN MIND Colossians 1:21 21 And you, that were sometime alienated and enemies in your mind by wicked works, yet now hath he reconciled 2:18 Let no man beguile you of your reward in a voluntary humility and worshipping of angels, intruding into those things which he hath not seen, vainly puffed up by his fleshly mind, Hebrews 10:16 16 This is the covenant that I will make with them after those days, saith the Lord, I will put my laws into their hearts, and in their minds will I write them; Ephesians 4:22-24 22 That ye put off concerning the former conversation the old man, which is corrupt according to the deceitful lusts; 23 And be renewed in the spirit of your mind; 24 And that ye put on the new man, which after God is created in righteousness and true holiness. Romans 12:2 And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God. Philippians 2:5 5 Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus: 1 Cor. 2:16 16 For who hath known the mind of the Lord, that he may instruct him? but we have the mind of Christ. Col. 3:2 (NKJV) 2 Set your mind on things above, not on things on the earth. Isaiah 26:3 Thou wilt keep him in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on thee: because he trusteth in thee.

  8. Absolutely kwikphilly...there's so much instruction in this book! And it is very humbling. The big message I got from it, and that I've never heard any preacher preach about it, is the huge instruction w/regard to Elihu! His witness, his testimony, his care for Job and the Lord...he was adamant about Who God Is, and he was so bothered that Job was missing it! If it had not been for the witness of Elihu, the story of Job might have gone differently, depending upon what the Lord desired to teach. But to me, there is such a message w/regard to Elihu and the power of a witness who will testify to what they know about the Lord...in their personal relationship. Elihu testified! Thus, he was not included in God's reprimand of Job's "friends" at the end of the book. In His Love, Suzanne
  9. If you will stick to topic, rather than arguing about a side issue, the thread will stay on course, and be much more productive. Just sayin. :-) IN HIs Love, Suzanne
  10. Yes and like mentioned in Job....God will use the enemy(Satan) to deal w/the children of pride in the end: Job 41:34 34 He beholdeth all high things: he is a king over all the children of pride. There is a purpose, even for Satan. In His Love, Suzanne
  11. Good morning all....as the OP of this topic, I just wanted to stop in and say that the symbolism of Leviathan is very significant. To refer to another poster here...the Leviathan is a "type" of Satan...and just as every other created thing, God can and will use for his purposes. Just as He did w/Pharaoh in that time, Leviathan is a picture of one who will deal w/"children of pride"....those who will not submit to the authority of God. Wicked can and will be used towards evil. Psalm 16:4 4 The LORD hath made all things for himself: yea, even the wicked for the day of evil. 5 Every one that is proud in heart is an abomination to the LORD: though hand join in hand, he shall not be unpunished.c Those who are so stiff-necked and will not submit to God...will be dealt with. In His Love, Suzanne
  12. Thank you, Reinitin, for sharing this testimony....that is a very good thing! In His Love, Suzanne
  13. I'm glad the post is being revisited. In His Love Suzanne

    Watch!!!!

    John 14: 27 Peace I leave with you, My peace I give to you; not as the world gives do I give to you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid. 28 You have heard Me say to you, 'I am going away and coming back to you.' If you loved Me, you would rejoice because I said, 'I am going to the Father,' for My Father is greater than I. 29 And now I have told you before it comes, that when it does come to pass, you may believe. 30 I will no longer talk much with you, for the ruler of this world is coming, and he has nothing in Me. 31 But that the world may know that I love the Father, and as the Father gave Me commandment, so I do. Arise, let us go from here. Jesus wanted us to watch, so that we would not be caught off guard...He also wants us to be able to stand and not be troubled in times of trouble.It is coming, and we had better be prepared. We had better not be asleep. In His Love,Suzanne

    Watch!!!!

    Hi MorningGlory, I'm using Edge, but I have a new desktop, that doesn't have a decent Word processing program on it...so this may be part of the problem as well, with regard to the cut and paste issue? I notice that the cut and paste from Crosswalk Bible Study, doesn't show up right? Anyway, it is too difficult for me to post here, so won't be trying to do any Bible discussions...wish I could. In His Love, Suzanne
