Pastor Roger I have a request if possible.  Can I copy a devotion?  My plan is to email it to the youth, I am ministering to.  One every week, i send e-mails to our youth. My e-mails are sometime devotions, bible verses or things to ponder about.  for them to grow in there Christian lives, so i read some of your teens devotion and they are good.  So if you allow me to copy a devotion, i would appreciate it.  It is a great help.

[put a stumbling block or an occasion to fall in his brother's way]

My thought about drinking or any other thing we do is

Let us not therefore judge one another any more: but judge this rather, that no man put a stumbling block or an occasion to fall in his brother's way. Romans 14:11

It is good neither to eat flesh,nor to drink wine, nor any thing whereby thy brother stumbleth, or is offended, or is made weak. Romans 14:21


So as a Christian, we should also be aware eventhought what we do it just fiene with us. Coz' we might be putting a stumbling block or doing that others will commit sin.  Example: drinking wine or alcohol - eventhough we can drink a lot and not be drunk but if other see us and think anyway bother so and so is doing this so i guess it is good and then they di it (Drink even a glass of wine and be drunk).

Just try not to do things that others will lead away from God.

Great idea!!!

[when the sons of God came in unto the daughters of men, and they bare children to them]

We have a lot of aliens right here in the U.S. They keep coming across the borders and causing a lot of problems. 

Seriously speaking though if they are such things (I have never seen them) then I am sure that you are right in that they must be demons, if demons can be seen.

I believe also they are demons possting as aliens.  also, i believe that some demons can be seen coz' it the beginning of time they even have human wives.

There were giants in the earth in those days; and also after that, when the sons of God came in unto the daughters of men, and they bare children to them, the same became mighty men which were of old, men of renown. Genesis 6:4

And i believe also that some people when they said they seen ghost what they see is evil spirits posting as somebody else.

that is my thought.

[We Worship JESUS CHRIST Here as Lord and Saviour Forever!]

YOU ARE ALL RIGHT.  Holywood movies had became bad to worse.  I prefer reading than watching movies.  When i watch holywood movies, i am just feeding my mind with junks.  But sometimes, when i do not have anything else to do i watch anything in the TV (we have here a common TV in my workplace dormitory; i do not want to buy my own tv coz' there's no good stuff to watch) they are watching but i lasted only for 2 minutes.

       Funny ha ha

So they can continue their assault on Jesus Christ and the rest of our freedoms? No! After all they will not stop there, they will continue until we have been subjugated to their beliefs or killed.

But then with what is happening in the states, with ACLU, secular groups and other such group. Maybe our representative in the Congress may pass one because of their pressure. But I hope not; just keep watch everyone. 

This news (facts) should really be shared to other people.  We have really been brain washed in school that we came from apes.  I just really glad God is with me and was not blinded by the evolution theory (which most science teacher are stating as if it is a fact). Most Christians really have a hard time accepting the 7day (24 hour) creation; because of what is taught in school.

I just wanted to say continue to open the eyes of the people.

By the way, haven't they read that God even made a plant grow in just few hours in Jonah's time.

[and of all that thou shalt give me I will surely give the tenth unto thee.]

blademan,
 I believe tithing started with Jacob in Genesis 28
May i qoute Genesis 28:20-22
 
  20: And Jacob vowed a vow, saying, If God will be with me, and will keep me in this way that I go, and will give me bread to eat, and raiment to put on,
   21: So that I come again to my father's house in peace; then shall the LORD be my God:
   22: And this stone, which I have set for a pillar, shall be God's house: and of all that thou shalt give me I will surely give the tenth unto thee.
  this is a vow made by Jacod (Israel) so God is just requiring what is the vow made by israel.  so whatever your vow to give to the lord you should fulfill it.

In liviticus 27:30-32
30: And all the tithe of the land, whether of the seed of the land, or of the fruit of the tree, is the LORD's: it is holy unto the LORD.
   31: And if a man will at all redeem ought of his tithes, he shall add thereto the fifth part thereof.
   32: And concerning the tithe of the herd, or of the flock, even of whatsoever passeth under the rod, the tenth shall be holy unto the LORD.


Malachi 3:7-10
For I am the LORD, I change not; therefore ye sons of Jacob are not consumed.
   7: Even from the days of your fathers ye are gone away from mine ordinances, and have not kept them. Return unto me, and I will return unto you, saith the LORD of hosts. But ye said, Wherein shall we return?
   8: Will a man rob God? Yet ye have robbed me. But ye say, Wherein have we robbed thee? In tithes and offerings.
   9: Ye are cursed with a curse: for ye have robbed me, even this whole nation.
   10: Bring ye all the tithes into the storehouse, that there may be meat in mine house, and prove me now herewith, saith the LORD of hosts, if I will not open you the windows of heaven, and pour you out a blessing, that there shall not be room enough to receive it.


But when you give it should come from the heart. And if you vowed a vow (you said that you give something to God) fulfill it coz' God will require you to fullfill your vow.

[And the LORD opened the mouth of the ass]

anyway, here is the donkey that talked Numbers 22:28-30

And the LORD opened the mouth of the ass, and she said unto Balaam, What have I done unto thee, that thou hast smitten me these three times? 
And Balaam said unto the ass, Because thou hast mocked me: I would there were a sword in mine hand, for now would I kill thee. 
And the ass said unto Balaam, Am not I thine ass, upon which thou hast ridden ever since I was thine unto this day? was I ever wont to do so unto thee? And he said, Nay.


See if God can make a donkey tlaked, can't he not make a way to reach those people in the distant land.  He can use anything he wants... missionaries or others.

[Job]

Linux.... even after this question of yours is answered; you will question again... what about those that lives before Jesus came to earth? There is no gospel then right?

My answer for this and for your question is....
My God is a just God he judges justly. So i will not question his judgement?  Maybe you should read his answer to Job. Read last chapters of Job.

Another thing, my God is powerful, all knowing and can do anything.  Thus, i believe, just as he have reach us he have reach those people you are saying.  He may not used the missionaries but he can use anything and his ways are better than what i can think of. 
Have you not read in the bible that he cn even make a donkey talk (if i remember it correctly) if he wanted to. People just have a hardened heart.  Now if God uses missionaries in the past decades it doesn't mean that God uses missionaries also before.  As i said God ways are better than our.

[AMEN!!]

AMEN!!

AMEN!!! but we must not forget to go and be fisher's of men

[Revelation 14:9]

Wrong part of the body, the Bible states, hand, or forehead.

Revelation 14:9 Then another angel, a third, followed them, saying with a mighty voice, Whoever pays homage to the beast and his statue and permits the [beast's] stamp (mark, inscription) to be put on his forehead or on his hand,

Your right dreamweaver. but can they not impose to put this in the forehead or on our hand. for convenience for example they can ask to just put at the hand (easier to scan). Right? or forehead easier to check.
