the Spirit of Christ reverberates in the mouths of the holy apostles
never new initiatives but reminding and enlarging that treasure
they understood, revealing, applying that wisdom of Christ
in practical ways among those who share that blessing
but those words do not offer any novel gospel or
other ways of salvation unto all who do
not respond to the message.September 11, 2008 at 10:49 pm#211723NickHassanParticipantforemost teachers must be learners and listeners
quick to dissemble what artifaces prove unstable
all distillation brings the risk of error and addition
and multiplication of more and how hard to undo,
measure each understanding, prove each thought
lest we curse others with the same words we rely
on, one truth will stand firm, and that, God's WordSeptember 11, 2008 at 11:13 pm#211724NickHassanParticipantcall no earthly man teacher for we have one teacher
and others only serve to reveal the secrets of Christ
whose Spirit lives, manifests in various ways, his glory
shown yet in that body continuing his heavenly work
here till he is rejoined with them risen as one to quell
the earth and restore harmony and beauty, the stolen
earth replenished, revealing ,redolent the Creators handSeptember 12, 2008 at 1:33 am#211725lineonParticipantLord take my heavy heart
And make it light.
There is no one here
To squeeze and wring it out.
Let my thoughts drop out
Let them float away
On your river of grace
And be replaced by your faith,
That life is good
That life is me,
That all I see will not be.
That You will come
And be our King.Lineon

tasty scroll becomes painful indigestion just a little later
those energised with bread from heaven find hatred in the
sharing for man of earth revolts to hear that death awaits
her meal, given breath will fade, though scrolls record all life
to be recounted and fruit from various sources, all accountedSeptember 12, 2008 at 4:08 am#211727NickHassanParticipantever judged a baby show nothing i would recommend
a hundred beaming mothers expecting theirs to be the best
to make the choice is to make one friend and ninetynine enemies
so also with the doctrines of men none can compare with the original.September 12, 2008 at 7:36 pm#211728NickHassanParticipantyes i did see him on my way to Jerusalem but you must understand
that i was running late to join with my brothers in religious celebrations
and i had a pious speech to give so my thoughts were all entwined
and besides who knows if i too could become a victim of his attackers
could it be a ruse, did he have a disease, might i have got blood on
my clothes, sinners were coming behind me so i was not his only hope
if i had known You were watching and this was my big chance to
show how my religion was meant to be helpful to men as well as please
You then i guess i'd have done what he did, but we were never told
to be kind and thoughtful to others and were busy obeying our leaders
no spare time to spend helping our neighbours but now i do know
that love does not focus on You, but it warms us and all who are nearSeptember 12, 2008 at 8:14 pm#211729TiffanyParticipantI trust lean on, rely on, and am confident in the Lord.
I do good, so shall I dwell in the land, and feed surely
on His faithfulness, and truly I shall be fed.My heart is fixed, O God, my heart is steadfast and confident,
I will sing and make melody.O Lord of Host, I am blessed happy.
God guards me and keeps me in perfect
and constant peace, because my mind
is on Him, I commit myself to Him,
lean on Him, and have all confident in Him.Irene

perhaps a little more digging in fertilisers might help
one more year i can wait but unless it works for me
should it take up the ground useless but for firewoodSeptember 12, 2008 at 9:31 pm#211731lineonParticipantAlone we are,
Comfort comes from our friends
Soothing words that say
'Jesus is on His way.'
Encouragement is never far away
Handshakes and hugs go along way.Yet, we are alone
Focusing on the self
Saving our selves,
Knowing our Lord is on our side
Stepping out in faith
Standing on water—- not on ice.Alone we are,
Walking together in one motion
Walking as one—— in sync.
Christ our Lord
Is always in our thoughts
Christ our Lord is here to stay.Lineon

September 13, 2008 at 7:32 am#211733NickHassanParticipantbad and good, sinful and pious too are of the interest only of men
for judgement is not according to sin but according to the gift
of the son of God so come out of no man's land and obey the one
who is now lord of all, all must repent you must be born againSeptember 13, 2008 at 8:49 am#211734charityParticipantO I love to Love you Baby….

I've learned that our dog doesn't want to eat my broccoli either.September 13, 2008 at 11:00 am#211736NickHassanParticipantguilt is the commerce of Satan, man's heart accusing
beyond reason anxiety drawn to useless religion to
seek expiation instead finding compulsion, control
group mentality comforts, mass manipulation, mirrors
and smoke, blinds, binds, steals sight, foils faith, futility.September 13, 2008 at 3:47 pm#211737TiffanyParticipantGuilt can ruin your life forever,
Guilt makes a sour person,
Guilt makes you physical sick,
Guilt spoils any relationship with another person,
Guilt is not of God,
So beloved pray that all will rid themselves of Guilt.
Only with the help of the Holy Spirit can a person overcome so.Peace and Love Irene
September 13, 2008 at 3:58 pm#211738TiffanyParticipantI take heed and guard my life diligently,lest
I forget the things which my eyes have seen
and lest they depart from my mind and my heart,
all the days of my life.
I teach them to my children and my children's, children.
For ever more. Praise God on High, our Heavenly Father.
And give Honor to our Savior Jesus Christ. AmenPeace and Love Irene
September 13, 2008 at 8:05 pm#211744NickHassanParticipantI am the light of the world, come follow me
he who walks with me walks not in darkness, light,
if your eye is single, your whole body will be full of light
hatred of the brothers is of the darkness and blinds the eye
cast the beam first from your eye then you will be able to help
blessed are your eyes which see while others have been blinded
blessed indeed are those who have not seen and yet believe
lust of the flesh, the eye, the world, eyes full of adultery,
compelled by sin, cast it out, let the only one to open
the eyes of the blind that men yet refuse to know
open your eyes by the paste of his spittle
mixed with the earth of man's origin, restoration
he came to open the eyes of the blind, blind the sight,
ignorant men of earth confident in their human understanding
without his assistance we fail, unfed by the teacher
with his bread we are heavenly laughingstock.September 13, 2008 at 8:29 pm#211740NickHassanParticipantour thoughts preside, speculations arise, stop, stop, step aside
quell and resolve by what is taught from heaven's holy tongue
no harm all gain if sifting finds some treasures sent from above
if we set our altar here among our foolish reckoning we obstruct
the flow of truth from where no human sources can compare
be silent flesh and let God speak loud voices belong to strangersSeptember 13, 2008 at 8:54 pm#211745NickHassanParticipantput aside the ways of youth take meat leaving babymilk
past being rubbish bravely walk caring hands helping
lest you stumble, fall, take now the higher mountain paths
share store supplies grace vivifies spread for the sight
brothers alongside who adding giftings making body joined
mature and useful vessels supplied, abundantly blessed
set aside, reverential, inward, outward service to the Holy One - AuthorPosts
