  1. Judges 6:12-16 12 When the angel of the Lord appeared to Gideon, he said, “The Lord is with you, mighty warrior.” 13 “Pardon me, my lord,” Gideon replied, “but if the Lord is with us, why has all this happened to us? Where are all his wonders that our ancestors told us about when they said, ‘Did not the Lord bring us up out of Egypt?’ But now the Lord has abandoned us and given us into the hand of Midian.” 14 The Lord turned to him and said, “Go in the strength you have and save Israel out of Midian’s hand. Am I not sending you?” 15 “Pardon me, my lord,” Gideon replied, “but how can I save Israel? My clan is the weakest in Manasseh, and I am the least in my family.” 16 The Lord answered, “I will be with you, and you will strike down all the Midianites, leaving none alive.” I, as well as Gideon in verse 13 and other brothers/sisters in the faith (Job, Habbakuk,etc.), even Jesus (My God, my God why have you forsaken me?), have questioned why bad things have happened to us. Many nonbelievers too don’t understand why bad things happen to their version of “good” people. Job’s purpose in his trials was to prove his faith in God genuine, grow him closer to God, and he was blessed with far more than he had before his trials began. Habbakuk asked God why evil was happening and later God shows him and he rejoices I believe because his question was coming from a sincere heart. Attacking the character of God because He allowed something we deem as bad to happen is a sin because then we are questioning God in a sense that says we know better, which we don’t. In the above passage God shows that He is for us, and it’s in His time, and His strength to show His power. He has a reason for even the bad things that happen to us. In the case above it was to show His deliverance of Gideon and Israel from the oppressive Midianites. Romans 8:28 is a reminder of this, "And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose." There is purpose in the difficult things we go through.
  2. I joined a team within my company about a year ago and am now regretting it. I am the only straight (and female, and Christian) person in a group of five money-hungry, Christian-hating gay men whose mouths and minds are filled with the most vile things, and they speak of everyone around them -clients, other teams, anyone - with bitter contempt. I was not the most devoted Christian when I joined, so it would be an unpleasant surprise to my team if I were to begin to demonstrate my faith, even in the smallest ways. In fact, whenever they take the opportunity to bash believers, I stay silent for fear of putting my job in jeopardy. They managed to push out the previous girl, who was also a Christian. My desire is to leave the team and find a better fit - as well as something closer to home (my commute is over an hour one way). I have been praying persistently to Jesus to invoke the Holy Spirit to either strengthen my walk and help me endure this job, or provide a better opportunity. But neither has happened, and I live in constant discouragement. Recently I was presented with a better offer from a Godly team in my hometown. I turned it down before my resume was even accepted, simply because the ringleader of my team suspected I was looking for another job, and offered me a $200 gas card and a .50-cent an hour raise. Now I feel like Judas, who was bought out by the Pharisees for a bag of coins. Furthermore, my boss has recently insisted on helping me financially with moving into my new apartment. So I feel ashamed, because in a way I am greatly indebted to him. Would there be a reason for God to keep me in this job - possibly to use it as a mission field? I should hope not, no Christian should have to be surrounded by this daily filth! But I’m afraid since I forfeited my chance at a better opportunity for a few cents more an hour, I have indeed messed up God’s plan, and now must remain here as a consequence. How am I ever to know which path God wants me to take? Any advice would be greatly appreciated!
  3. Hi all. Here's another video produced by some friends of mine. It's 6 minutes, so not too long. There is a rather intimate link between prophecy and the teachings of Jesus. After all, the angel from Revelation 10 tells us that the spirit of prophecy is the testimony of Jesus. The video examines the relationship between Jesus' comments, in particular, about serving two masters and the Mark of the Beast, both of which heavily revolve around our relationship to money. I look forward to hearing what others think. Lets get some good discussion going about the Mark of the Beast and personal motivations!
  4. Please pray for me. With me. For my head is hung in shame as I ask for help. 3 months of bad luck has turned my world upside down. I am just a few short steps away from being homeless and in debt with 2 kids. I need a loan. i have started campaigns for it but I'd much rather borrow and pay back than be given a handout. But I am in desperation and at this Moment, there is little I won't do to keep food in my children's stomachs and a roof over their heads. I have no credit. I've always bought everything up front. No payday loans. No short term loans with 800% interest. Just a loan to be paid off over say a year or so. Or a personal lender to set their own deadlines. I'm desperate at the moment. I've never had to borrow from anybody before. So this is a horrible feeling for me and I'm humiliated by it. More details that won't fit in this. im in need of prayers. I'm in need of advice. And I am desperate for help. I know that I must hold onto faith, but I feel it slipping away. Once prideful, my humility has my head hung in shame as I beg for help and pray I have the strength to hold on to my faith.
  5. Hi friends, A while back I was discussing doctrine and was asked to provide a text to prove a claim I made. When the scripture was provided the response was, oh that's just a poetic book. My question is are these books just for inspirational purposes? From what I read in 2 Tim. 3:16 All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness. Am I reading too much into this?
  6. What is the job of an employer? Hopefully this topic is not controversial. I was listening to Mike Rowe (the host of Dirty Jobs) the other night on Huckabee. They were talking about the need to increase minimum wages and provide healthcare to all workers so the employees can live their own version of a content lifestyle. Mike Rowe stated plainly that he does not think the employer should be entitled to provide for basic necessities of the employee. So I guess the employer is to provide a pay for an honest day's work. The retirement/insurance should be overseen by the employee in their individual life. I have very little say because I have never had health insurance provided by my employer but I have had my taxes taken out towards medicare/government stuff. I am starting my own retirement fund with a roth ira so I don't know the other side of the coin. I've only worked part-time because I am an undergrad. There is the problem with part-time work. It seems that part-time work was intended for those who already had a stable financial bearing and needed some extra money instead of something that is suppose to compromise the entire financial plan for the person. But presently part-time jobs are more prevalent that full time due to the poor economy at the moment so some people seem to be expecting the same benefits of full time with part time work. So is the job of an employer to provide retirement/insurance? Are such prices already taken out of the paycheck and into a fund already? Should the employee have full responsibility over their retirement and insurance plans? Is the employer just entitled to give a safe environment, appropriate hours and a paycheck?
