hallelujah's Comments

To read my message in the order I entered it, one will need to read the comment typed at 6:49 first.....the one at 7:03 in a continuation of the same comment. FYI for those who are interested.

I wasn't against the message, but I was eager to search for the Truth no matter where it took me. I asked the Lord to help me to understand, because when people tried to explain it to me, I still couldn't understand it. I had an image in my mind of a piece of ice.....and the thought of that same piece of ice being able to be either a solid, gas, or water. Even though it can change into those 3 different forms (to play different roles), it was the same or One. Later while at a camp meeting, I saw a pamphlet on a table in the back of the room with a picture of this same image that had been in my mind. People can believe I am crazy or whatever, but I believe the Lord gave me that image, and allowed me to see the picture on this pamphlet to further encourage me. I have felt the Sprirt of the Lord move inside of me numerous times. At first, I was looking around to see where the draft might be coming from...........I have never drank coolant before, but if I could imagine what it would be like, I would imagine it would be like waves of coolant running through my body. I could find no draft or reason for feeling what I was feeling other than it being His Spirit running through me. He communicates with me (at times) in the forms of dreams, thoughts I know are not my own, etc. He has changed my life totally and completely. The Bible tells us to taste and see that the Lord is good, and He is. I have written a mini-novel here, and I do apologize. I left out a lot of stuff I would have liked to have also shared, but it would just be too long for this site. Anyway, that is my story and I am sticking to it.

I have a personal relationship with Jesus, and I have committed myself to live for Him the rest of my life. I believed in Jesus when I was little, because I was taught to believe in Him......just like I was taught to believe in santa, tooth fairy, Easter bunny, etc. After becoming a teenager and going through the rebel years, I drifted away. I even started to think that, if we had been told all that other stuff to encourage us to be good, maybe the story of Jesus was the same thing.....just on a much bigger scale. As a teenager and young adult, I got mixed up in drugs, alcohol, and many other wrongs that I won't go into.....but I am quite ashamed of. When I had reached my lowest point and was seriouly considering suicide, I cried out to the Lord to help me, and told Him I couldn't take it anymore. I have a hard time explaining what happened next, but I could feel the pain lifting off of me.......much like the heat radiating off of one after getting a bad sunburn. It took a few more days to get totally back to normal, but it was awesome the way it happened. I began to really search out Jesus, after this experience along with other experiences I have had with Him. I have read Lee Strobel's book "A Case For Christ", and read many other books and watched tapes along the same line. I was invited to Church one day, and didn't want to tell my family, "No", so I went. It was an Apostolic Church, and I can honestly tell you I was scared. I started hearing things I had never heard before like the Oneness Doctrine message and the importance of being baptized in Jesus' name.

"The mere presence of atheists here on this sight posting and dialoging is evidence of the existence of God" from seedplanter........Helps a lot in dealing with so much negative comments. When one loves and cares very much for somebody, they really don't like to read or hear negative things about that person. I still don't like it, but your comment will help me see a positive in a negative.

1 Peter 3:15
But give honour to Christ in your hearts as your Lord; and be ready at any time when you are questioned about the hope which is in you, to give an answer in the fear of the Lord and without pride. -
2 Tim 2:14-17
14 Put these things before them, giving them orders in the name of the Lord to keep themselves from fighting about words, which is of no profit, only causing error in their hearers. 15 Let it be your care to get the approval of God, as a workman who has no cause for shame, giving the true word in the right way. 16 But take no part in wrong and foolish talk, for those who do so will go farther into evil, 17 And their words will be like poisoned wounds in the flesh. -
Romans 1:19-22
19 Because the knowledge of God may be seen in them, God having made it clear to them. 20 For from the first making of the world, those things of God which the eye is unable to see, that is, his eternal power and existence, are fully made clear, he having given the knowledge of them through the things which he has made, so that men have no reason for wrongdoing: 21 Because, having the knowledge of God, they did not give glory to God as God, and did not give praise, but their minds were full of foolish things, and their hearts, being without sense, were made dark. 22 Seeming to be wise, they were in fact foolish. -
I don't believe that ender meant it the way you seemed to have taken it. I am new to this site too, and I was surprised by the number of anti-God comments posted on a christian site. It also passed through my mind that maybe they were hopeful someone could prove God's existence to them. I have also wondered if they were just trying to get us bogged down in a bunch of nonsense. Everyone has the right to believe the way they want to, and everybody has the right to be wrong. We are supposed to be ready with the answer for our hope and belief in the Lord, but we are not supposed to get into foolish discussions with people who have closed-minds. I am a Christian, but even if I didn't believe in God or wasn't sure of His existence, I would still appreciate true Christian people. I would have no reason to have anything against them. Anyway, I hope you find whatever it is you are searching for, but I hope it is the Truth.

'Can You Be Gay and Christian?' Poses Conservative Activist
hallelujah »Wed Feb 20, 2008 4:04 am Agree: 0 Disagree: 0
One of the biggest mistakes one can make is to lie to him/herself about how they stand with the Lord. Many want their ears tickled instead of having their hearts pricked. It is most important to read the Word (Bible) to learn what the Lord does and does not approve of for His people. If we are not willing to give up the things He doesn't approve of, then we really shouldn't call ourselves Christians. It is so important where we will spend eternity, so we need to be diligent in searching out His Will for our lives. Lets not do that in vain by lying to ourselves. Search for the Truth no matter where it takes us and embrace it. It will pay off in the end.

Study: Americans Say Non-Church Worship is Fully Biblical
hallelujah »Wed Feb 20, 2008 3:46 am Agree: 0 Disagree: 0
Most Churches, it seems, have a Bible study available. Some will even do one on one Bible studies. Many preachers wouldn't mind, if you want to have a meeting with them to ask questions on a topic that he hasn't addressed yet. I really like the preachers that tell us not to just automatically believe them, but to read the Word, to make sure he is telling the Truth. I like to take them up on it.

Study: Americans Say Non-Church Worship is Fully Biblical

I have never stopped going to the store just because there are hypocrites there. There are a lot of hypocrites at ball games, but I have never heard anybody say they stopped going to them, because of the hypocrites. They didn't go to the games to watch the hypocrites. They went to watch the game. Preachers are supposed to have an anointing on them, but many don't. I still feel it is important to find a good Church, who teaches the Truth. We need to read our Bibles too, so we will know that the Truth is being preached. Preachers are held to a higher accountability, and they should be respected. If one can't respect their preacher, than they need to take a good look at theirself, or it might be time to find the right Church. Whatever one decides, I hope the decision isn't to stop attending Church altogether.

Study: Americans Say Non-Church Worship is Fully Biblical

I know there are hypocrites in our Churches, but they are also at work, in the stores, and everywhere else we go. At times, even we are hypocrites. There has been times when I have quit going to Church, and that was the reason I gave, but it wasn't a good decision on my part. I am back in Church, and will not stop attending Church, because I need it. I have learned not to let what others are doing or not doing stop me from doing what I need to do. We should be going to Church to worship the Lord........not to watch what everybody else is/isn't doing.

Not giving up our meetings, as is the way of some, but keeping one another strong in faith; and all the more because you see the day coming near. Hebrews 10:25

But God made selection of the foolish things of this world so that he might put the wise to shame; and the feeble things that he might put to shame the strong. (1 Cor 1:27)
Let no man have a false idea. If any man seems to himself to be wise among you, let him become foolish, so that he may be wise. For the wisdom of this world is foolish before God. As it is said in the holy Writings, He who takes the wise in their secret designs: And again, The Lord has knowledge of the reasonings of the wise, that they are nothing. (1 Cor 3:18-20) -

Calling someone a fool and saying they will be shown to be foolish is two entirely different things. Fool is a noun. Foolish is an adjective. But God is God, and if He wants to call them a fool, that would be His right. If someone chooses not to believe the Word of God, that is their business. I choose to believe in Him and His Word. If one has a problem with Him or His Word, that is between that individual and our Maker.

Gal 1:7-9
7 Which is not another sort: only there are some who give you trouble, desiring to make changes in the good news of Christ. 8 But even if we, or an angel from heaven, were to be a preacher to you of good news other than that which we have given you, let there be a curse on him. 9 As we have said before, so say I now again, If any man is a preacher to you of any good news other than that which has been given to you, let there be a curse on him. -

(If we don't want to be found out as actually being foolish, we best get a hold of God, before it is too late. We still need to live what we know the truth to be no matter what others may choose to believe.) -
