So by now we all have come to accept that there is countless ways to interpret any one event or thing. We all have the ability to take something and make it into what we think. We then share this and other people read it process it and use there own mind to come to a conclusion. This was important in beginning because we became free thinkers. But as time went on we started to see things in a way that we thought they should go or we made theories that sounded so right and cause so much hope in this community. Well once things didnt go certain way it brought alot of people down and drained there energy. Keep posting like that guys but here is the challenge. For every theory or heres what I think post, i challenge u to either make it about God or at very least make another post about our great and almighty God. We have to see God in this whole thing from here on out. We have to make message of love and faith. Other wise were just fighting for worldly things and not for our soul

Ok yeah I usually just say both because certain people that aren't really close to God judge god based of me and how I come across about him. So I try to not step on toes until a couple back and forth.
And I know I'm speechless at how many people have commented or upvoted. I thought most would cast me down and say negative. But so far only one person has condemned what I wrote. And many many more have been actually having heart to hearts with me. And i love it. I feel in my flow state when i talk about God with people. Even if there trying to take away my light I still get such joy and energy simply talking about it. I wish I could make a career out of it but they want me to go to schooling and crap for a long time just in Hope's a church will hire me. I'm determined to find a way to make it my job and way of life, without the system way of things.
Well I really am not trying to argue against you, because I think you should be a witness of Christ however you personally see it best, but I think it is important to remember that Jesus did not hesitate to insult anyone and used the worst insults of their society. For example calling a woman a dog and others idiots or snakes. I think we should try to follow the example of Christ best we can and try to understand why he saw it fit to insult and offend others. I don't think he was worried about his insults pushing them away from him, rather he hated sin and called it as it was instead of being dishonest about it or hiding his feelings about it. You can't draw anyone towards Christ or away from Him, only God does that (John 6:44). We can only hope to have a part in it by being used as a tool for God to do it.
If you seriously feel that drawn to a life of ministry then you should start one yourself! I'm serious, don't depend on others to elevate you to that position. If God wants you there, He will put you there.
Look up Kent Hovind and how he lost everything: his Church, his wife, years of his life, and most of his money. He still leads a fantastic independent ministry today. If other Christians like what you are doing, they will support you, and if God likes what you are doing, He will absolutely bless you.
I have totally dreamed about starting a ministry I just dont know where to start. I can talk all day to people but how do u make a living off of letting people know what deep down they already know themselves they just have been blinded to it
Hey thanks for this it meant alot. I had this whole thing typed out but I let ur words sink in deep and understood ur meaning differently. In a good way. It helped me grow. As long as I'm speaking gods message from my heart , then it doesn't matter if I offended someone because its not there view on me that important. It's between them and God. I'm just a wandering boombox for Gods mightyness
