how we make sense of God..Can Damage image christian community

 Abortion..Same sex marriage..
Children taken from young mum..
 Priests abusing children!



Damages the image of
the Christian 
community

Outside of love is evil, judgment, and wrath. This reality is what makes peace, love, and mercy so profound. We who have lived under the Lord wrath (John 3:36; Romans 1:18) and have been saved by His grace (Ephesians 2:8-9), fully appreciate these mercies from God (Lamentations 3:22-23).


why bad theology is dangerous.

Bad theology,(how we make sense of God), gives us a DAMAGED  understanding of who God is. – wethers that  an angry God of the Old Testament, brimstone along with lightening ,perhaps we fail to project in proclamation and demonstration,
A  Loving gracious, forgiving God of the New Testament? 
Is that the same God witnessed in both testament?
 Or just different day,circumstances.

Does He care about us following His laws or do we follow our hearts? Is he involved in our Daily lives? 
Can we speak..converse with Him confidently as our Father.. or do we need to be afraid of Him?
Does God favor the Jews over the Gentiles or does He view us all the same way?
What is our view of God’s grand plan. – What was the purpose of the Old Covenant and the Law? Should we honor it today? 
What do we mean about the New Covenant?
Has the enemy been defeated or does he still possess some authority in our lives and on this earth?

It not about having the answers ..it is about wresting openly and in 
understanding further sharing about issues.

Let's indulgence with each other.

Perhaps it's my age, or part of the process of grieving,could simple be the time of year. But today well indeed this whole weekend. Feel...

MAYBE WE WON`T MEET AGAIN

. . . she got a postcard in the mail
That just said Heaven,with a picture of the ocean and the beach
The simple words he wrote her
Said he loved her
How he'd hold her if his arms would reach
Wish you were here, wish you could see this place
Wish you were near,Wish I could touch your face
The weather's nice, it's paradise
It's summertime all year and there's some folks we know
They say, "Hello, "
I miss you so, wish you were here"
