WALK the TALK

-

   

    It has been said that we should practice what we preach. A person may say one thing even proclaim and preach it,. If that person knowingly and constantly, not sometimes when weak,  live in a opposite way they are practicing.  Praticing something is to train and making yourself an expert in that behavior or skill. This is how humans learn by study and practice. Practice can be called "walking" it is a life style and actions which preach by example.  Actions the saying goes speak louder than words.  Francis of Assisi said "It is no use walking anywhere to preach unless our walking is our preaching."  The BIBLE says in Romans 14:7 For none of us lives for ourselves alone, and none of us dies for ourselves alone. New International Version. If a person  walks and preaches the love of God the Father , Son and Holy Spirit. they must proclaim in in action.


    Every humans sins and our walks will not alway be perfect .We told in 1 John 1:8 "If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us." King James Version. We should however strive to not just  WALK to TALK but Walk, or live, in a way that preaches Jesus. The Word of God says "He who says he abides in Him ought himself also to walk just as He walked."John 2:6 and also "In the same way, let your light shine before others, that they may see your good deeds and glorify your Father in heaven." – Matthew 5:16. May the Lord help all believers walk to preach and walk what we preach.

Dear loved ones

  Dear loved and valued one,      I writing this to you in the precious name of Jesus Christ. Jesus who I believe is the blessed Savoir and Son of God. I know that may not be what you believe and I respect that, Even though I personally may not agree. This is not going to be a long attempt at trying to prove or convince you of anything. There are many more places to explore the deity of Jesus,The historical nature of the bible and the many question that arise in relation to the bible. I hope not to offend but offer what many Christians, including me,view as a gift. The gift of forgiveness and salvation. This letter is my attempt to say in a simple terms  how to be forgiven and to make sure that you have you have joined the family of God. I will try and keep it short but will quote a few bible verses , Why do Christians quote the bible?  it is because we feel as 2 Timothy 3:16  says "All Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righ

Christmas ?

-
                                                                   Christmas?   Christmas, Easter the Sabbath day bring disputes over whether they are PAGAN or is it the right day. So earlier in the last few weeks I overheard a conversation between a sister in Christ when she tried to witness to a person. As she was witnessing he asked her "but what about the Sabbath when do you worship" and she admitted on Sunday. The person then said "what about Christmas do you celebrate" and she said "yes" and he immediately began to talk about the fact that sunday was not the sabbath and Christmas is pagan day and we do not know when Jesus was actually born. The message of the Gospel could have been sidetracked as she tried to defend celebrating Christmas and Sundays. We are going to speak about her response later.    2 Timothy 2:14 says "Of these things put them in remembrance, charging them before the Lord that they strive not about words to no profit, but to
