We don't even know what fighting is.








62 years ago this was not an uncommon sight for thousands of Americans, Canadians, and Brits. Hopefully, we will never know what they felt on those Higgins Boats. I'd much rather discuss their bravery and heroic deeds than the useless pratter that I hear on these blogs. Do people make blogs just to have an opportunity to senselessly dog other people?

I am tired of a few things. 1. Don't tell me you are a Christian if you don't really care to advance the Gospel of Jesus Christ because I won't believe you (and because I want to advance the Gospel assume that I will tell you about it.) 2. If you aren't a Christian don't try to define Christianity or explain the bible or creation to me. The bible says that God's wisdom is foolishness to man. So, even though you don't believe it, you non-christians can't even understand the bible much less explain it. 3. If you cannot empirically prove your point then don't ever tell me that I am wrong. If you want to question me then make a case, but if you tell me that I am wrong then bring on some facts or bite your tongue.

These blogs frustrate me because they give people the opportunity to pretend that they know something. I'll be happy to expound in the future, but for now I am just going to sit and be unhappy with the state of people who are willing to smile while they cut you to pieces.

Just know this: Jesus is God. Jesus came to this earth and lived as a human but perfect. Jesus died, on purpose, after living a perfect life, so that we might have a complete covering of our sins by His blood. We all have sinned. The penalty for sin is not immediate death but eventual banishment to an existence away from God's presence for eternity in pain. "If you confess with your mouth Jesus as Lord, and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, you shall be saved!" Right now, confess that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead!

If not now, WHEN?!?!?!?

Don't be discouraged bro. Use this as an opportunity to share. I want to hear what's in your heart and I enjoy sharing mine with you.

Focus on posting good, thought provoking subjects and allow people to discuss it. You'll always hear opposing views and sometimes it will come across as biting. Many times it is sarcasm. How you handle that will either lead to arguments, or you can glean some truth and ask God to burn away the lies.

Make a difference by sharing the truth in love, with gentleness and respect. Sometimes you'll need to take a stand against bullies, but give them a chance first.

If you are having trouble with this, then write me, call me. I'm not perfect, but sometimes another's view and advice is just what we need.

And if you find yourself always in a struggle, then maybe blogging isn't for you. Stick to email. I'm always here for you.

On another note, why not ask your brother and some others to join the blogging community? That might help to form a "group" of people you know and trust already. You won't have to guess or assume what they mean as much.

These past two weeks, I've been on this too much. God's telling me to chill out and step back a little (we'll see how that goes, LOL). I have certainly learned a lot though. It has made me research my butt off. My faith has increased.

Love you man!

I don't know if this comment will ever see the light of your blog since you really don't care for me DC... but I just think we got off on the wrong foot...

I think in the end you are gonna end up liking me... everyone else does...

:-)

Who knows, we may even learn a thing or two from one another...

But just remember, now that you are a "blogger" this statement you made below applies to you just like everyone else.

...blogs frustrate me because they give people the opportunity to pretend that they know something.

Just know that they frustrate me for the same reason... that why I will tell you up front... I don't know a darn thing.

I hope I am welcome here just as I am...
