Not really sure why I'm posting this. I've been on the edge of posting something like this for a long time. I am so afraid that sometimes my actions may make me seem like a hypocrite. :-X I really have felt that God has led me to post on the site about Faith and Christianity. I know this is a General Discussion forum so I guess it will fit, and I know I stand to take allot of criticism. Here it goes though!
How many of the board members here know Christ as your personal savior??? I do, and I'm not afraid to say it. If anyone else feels the same post it. The thing is I got a real wake up call the last couple weeks. I feel as though I'm not living my personal life in the direction JESUS would expect of me. So I've decided to do something that will hold me more accountable for my actions. I would really like to start an ongoing post for encouraging scripture and discussion. It seems everytime you turn on the tube it's more bad news. We all need to wake up, and take a step back and as Christians, actually do what we are called to do. Our purpose is to spread the joy of knowing Jesus, and helping others have a secure future in heaven, and not burning. We are
of men. Those of you interested in knowing Christ are more than welcome to PM me. Or I can even give you a call.
I am by no stretch a preacher,missionary, or saint. Just a sinner like everyone else, but I want to make a difference. It's simple to change your eternal future, but it's hard to do the things to change your life. Becoming a Christian doesn't mean your not gonna screw up, just means your accountable for it.
Lord knows I'd be headed straight to hell if I told you guys I'm as good as they come. I hope this isn't some boring thread that won't take off. We have threads everywhere of tits and junk, so why not a positive influence on the board ??? This thread will be intended on being used to spread the word of Christ, be encouraging, a place for people to ask for prayer. So please feel free to post up, I to need all the help and encouragement I can get. I'm always a chicken when it comes to face to face witnessing, so maybe this will be a baby step for myself and many more.
I'll start the thread off with one of the most popular verses in the BOOK, I think it will be a good kickoff for things.
John 3:16
"For
God so loved the world that
He gave
His one and only
Son, that whoever believes in
Him shall not perish but have eternal life.
