the right balance.
stephen if we really seek to create a clearer picture, to uncover the truth, By Gods grace, and with the holy spirits help, and guidence,
to help us in our understanding, so we can also help others under stand.
some times we have to leave things open to interpretation.
we want the conclusion to be the right one, nothing more nothing less.
i used to work on ships carrying iron ore, which is nick named dead mans cargo,
because, in rough seas iron ore can move, gradualy causing a ship to list, to one side, then further and further until it capsizes,
if we are very one sided in our point of view, the result can be the same, little by little, until over we go. we need to be up right, balanced. approachable, willing to listen, willing to learn, change. humble our selves.
i respect your knowledge of the bible, strive to remain balanced,as should we all.
like wise some of your comments , at times can be unfounded.
i watched events unfold in Hati, total devestation, i said Lord, was there no one who could warn these people of what was about to happen, a prophecy a dream, premonition, vision, thinking of some old testement prophet proclaiming the coming event.
there was silence. and more silence then silence.
a few days later, i was watching a programe, and experts in this field, had been warning about the plates around Hati for some time, like wise we have all heard about Calafornia, yellow stone.
i started to think, please do not get to spiritual here, if we listen, if we look , yes in scripture but also to the world around us.some of the answers are there to.
experts who are not even talking from a christain view point, are saying, taking every thing into consideration, we are heading into the perfect storm.
we do not want to preach fear, or sound a false alarm, or be a sleep when we should have been a wake, watchman, blowing the trumpet at the right time, and for the right reason.
hopefully with Gods help. we can bring the right message to this world, at this time, balanced, timely,
in proper context. this is my heart, a clear message creating the right picture, for all to here and see. the right message.
so people can see clearly, and understand, and be saved ,and turn to Jesus, those who do not, are with out excuse, and their blood is not on our hands.
may God help us to share and encourage one another, strengthen one another, and that we may in turn be able reach out to those who to , are seeking to be saved. and to be set free.
so they to can know Gods love and eternal salvation, through our Lord Jesus Christ.
