Christian Fellowship
Today was such a beautiful day of Christian fellowship. God has really blessed me with my church home. I’m in awe.

quote
“If somebody sins against me, and somebody violates me, and somebody offends me, and my reaction in the human flesh would be to be angry, and bitter, and wrathful, and malicious, and slanderous, I stop and think, "But wait a minute, I don’t want anything out of them. After all, Jesus already bore that sin in His own body on the tree." Jesus already spilled His blood for that sin. What am I going to ask, what do I want, what more could there be? So next time you think you ought to have a vengeful attitude, next time you want to lash back at somebody, the next time you want to say an unkind word, or you want to be bitter towards somebody, next time you want to slander somebody, or whisper behind their back, or retaliate, or seek vengeance to somebody, remember that the very sin that they used against you, the very thing they did to you, Jesus already bore in His own body on the cross.”

“Our forgiveness is supposed to be lavish, enthusiastic, eager, freely offered, and unconstrained—even for repeat offenders. After all, we are all repeat offenders against God.”

“Save me from the love of the world and the pride of life, from everything that is natural to fallen man, and let Christ’s nature be seen in me day by day.”

“La chica que todos aman Cuando un hombre te ama ¿Cuánto dura? ¿Dura tanto como una tormenta de verano? ¿Dura tanto como las olas cuando chocan contra la orilla, barriendo la costa? Dices que me amas Mientras examinas las curvas de mis caderas Tus manos memorizando las líneas de mi piel Tu boca habla de promesas que nunca se cumplirán Pero tu mente se aleja Y puedo ver hacia dónde se dirige Y dejarás esta habitación y encontrarás otra Pero me amarás ahora, con mis manos atadas a la espalda, porque eso es lo que necesitas”

“Lluvia de meteoros Miras hacia arriba Y el cielo comienza a moverse Haciendo un espectáculo Con un trillón de actores diferentes Y bailan a través de tus ojos Y brillan de manera que me dan envidia Hasta que te vuelves hacia mí y me besas Y me doy cuenta de que, en tus ojos, yo brillo de la misma manera”

“Pero, sálvame, mi amor No sacrifiques mi vida por tu diversión No dejes que me convierta en otro fantasma en tu memoria No me dejes varado en el purgatorio que hay en tu corazón”

“It is the great end of the word preached, to bring us to a settlement in religion. Eph iv 11, 12, 14. 'And he gave some, evangelists; and some, pastors and teachers; for the edifying of the body of Christ; that we hence-forth be no more children.' The word is called a hammer. Jer xxiii 29. Every blow of the hammer is to fasten the nails of the building; so the preacher's words are to fasten you the more to Christ; they weaken themselves to strengthen and settle you. This is the grand design of preaching, not only for the enlightening, but for the establishing of souls; not only to guide them in the right way, but to keep them in it. Now, if you be not settled, you do not answer God's end in giving you the ministry.”

“What is true "compassion"?
True compassion is defined by God in His Word and is a reflection of God's character. Therefore, to know what true compassion looks like, we must understand what the Bible teaches about it. Rather than being a "thing" or a "quality" that God happens to possess, compassion is God's very nature, and all human compassion originates in Him. He is "the Father of mercies and God of all comfort" (2 Cor. 1:3), and God's compassion is embodied in His Son, Jesus Christ.”

“Don't believe everything you feel. Our emotions are sometimes the greatest liars we know.
Preach the truth to your emotions and the truth will begin to change your emotions by the power of the Spirit.”
