right, wrong and the truth
Amazed there are 6 things before I find my last one. Anyway I shirked a discussion about right and wrong and living the Christian life the other night.
I was 'in the dumps a bit'. I have to turn down a nursing course for reasons of money. I will say 'no' to the place tomorrow, and go on seeing about a lesser course and working the way up. 'You can't always have what you want' is the title of a Rolling Stones song; not quite in the Scriputres, but there are words of comfort about all things working for good ...........
Women topless, fine by me, may be a bit cold or painful with sunburn at the beach. In the perfect state Adam and Eve were naked and its certainly ok between married people, but although I don't take too much detail from Revelation, in the New Jerusalem we will have clothes of some sort. Yes Shawn!
I agree with Michele that faith in Jesus is about believing, but that faith is expressed in words, beliefs and actions: actions I think mean a number of things including regular church attendance, (its good for us and support for others), by hospitality and doing charitable works. The word 'works' occurs in the NT a lot, and is an outcome of faith.
I can't look back but someone said we have to work out right and wrong to some extent. I agreee but in working out right and wrong we need to base it on the Scripture and maybe consulted some learned authorities, our pastor just might know something. I'll er think about the Bob Dylan line "Don't worry kid they keep it all hid". Does anyone feel I have a love/hate feeling to the clergy? Ha.
