How Passion Becomes Poison

At times I just don’t know what to do. Confused by a range of both known and unknown stimuli, perhaps an overly burdened mind, indecision reigns-but not for as long as it used to.

Today, it is becoming more the practice to believe in anything but the divine. Sure, people say they believe in God, but God has become a God of human descent. We can scarcely equate first-century Christian devotion, holy works, and understanding of God with many of the secularly inspired precepts of today’s Christian teachings.

The true Christian carries the church of Christ in his heart and will always be a member of that great spiritual fellowship who call Jesus King. But what about the physical place where you pray, sing hymns and undergo numerous family services including baptisms and weddings, not to mention funerals? Is that a place that needs to be part of your weekly observances forever? My response to that is no.

There is nothing new about “New Age.” The teachings involved in this modern day culture have been around since antiquity.

If your church is beset with imperfections, torn by strife and politicking, take heart: all churches are. There are many reasons why there is no such thing as the perfect church, the main one being that we are not and can never hope to be, perfect Christians. When the apostle John sent his message to the seven churches as related in the book of Revelation, the message was clear. Keep the faith, maintain your strengths, but work on those weak points.

The death of Nadab and Abihu evidently shows the holiness of El Roi, the God who sees. He sees every move that we humans make. He sees each step that we would take and every turn that we would make. Worship is a second by second offering. od had said that even in our meals, we should be able to glorify Him. In every word that we would say in every minute should be able to glorify Him.

Some people say, “it doesn’t matter what you believe as long as you are sincere.” Have you heard that? Maybe, once, you believed that

“Season all your grain offerings with salt. Do not leave the salt of the covenant of your God out of your grain offerings; add salt to all your offerings.” Luke2:13. God wants us to be a pleasing aroma to Him. And to Him, a pleasing aroma is seasoned with purity.

Present your bodies as living sacrifices. This was the first verse that I thought when I have read the verse that was written above. Humans were created by God like lambs that are to be sacrificed to Him. We, as humans, should offer ourselves as living sacrifices to the God of heavens who first found us. It seemed awkward with the customs of this world but it is what the Father requires of us. We are the same burnt offering God refers in this chapter.

“What does the Lord require of you? To ACT JUSTLY, to LOVE MERCY and to WALK HUMBLY with your God.” Micah 6:8 It would probably be very difficult to please God. I believe God would never be satisfied with a sinful, imperfect human being such as I. But He is so merciful and loving that He wanted us to be satisfied with Him. As we seek His face, we gradually discover the things that would please Him and according to the book of Micah, there are three things God requires of us. At first it may seem vague but in the long run, it’ll fir our minds as we let the Holy Spirit habituate our soul and heart.

We are so much entangled with the fallacy that we are not loved, that we are alone in this world. We became frustrated due to our irrepressible feelings. We blame ourselves because we believe that we are the ones who hold our destiny. We thought that if a mistake has been made in our lives, we are to bear the consequences forever.

For energy to flow freely through your body and nervous system it is very important that all your chakras are open and well aligned with each other. Read more…
