Foo on you!

I promised myself I wouldn't do this but my conscience cannot rest unless I say a few things. How you read this makes a huge difference, and if you read this and go away thinking absolutely nothing then this has been in vain.

When I promised I wouldn't do this it is not because I am fearful of talking about things that I feel are unjust, nor am I taking the stance of an innocent victim, but it pushes me on to discuss the pride and the jealousy that once didn't exist around me and the state of unborn desires as the world get older people are changing. I should be free to say anything I want on this blog, but that has become the problem I am dealing with right now.

My dad last night wanted to know if I wanted to go out to karaoke with him, and to be honest I thought it would be a good idea, but I just couldn't go. While I lie here on my bed writing to you, what I am thinking about is how much truth and the opposite are being hidden and disclosed openly to us and the outcome of all of us appearing to be right, when none of us has ever really experienced it.

Open and direct communication is only right when we have all the truth, and none of us have all the truth all the time. I think there are allot of you playing God, and when we have the technology as we do today, we feel free to say what we want. Let me explain. I am not God and I know that He is upset when we try to manipulate things to get our way. Humans are limited but they have been given too much power to do things now, whereas in the past we were very much more limited. I have been not forthright, because I believe that there are people, hopefully some of you, who still believe in honesty and love and for those of you who have found better things, foo on you.

Catholic Identity.

  I was born into the Catholic Church and was baptized as an infant, I had my first communion and reconciliation as a child, and was confirmed as a teenager. Although I was never devout, I accepted Jesus Christ as my personal Lord and Saviour when I was 21 through an evangelical Christian radio ministry, which in turn gave new life to my Catholic faith. Although I remained a Catholic, I identified as a born again Christian. It wasn’t until much later in my life that I learned the difference between the two denominations and what they taught about being born again. Regardless, there was a significant change in my life back then, which continues to this day. Being Catholic is much like an identity to me and I remember growing up under the papacy of St. Pope John Paul II. The culture I grew up in was largely affected by his papacy, and the way the culture viewed the church was significantly different from the way the current culture views it. Growing up, the pope didn’t try to be rele...

Age of Brokenness.

  We are living in an age of brokenness, no matter what age you are, you probably have been touched with relationships falling apart, which causes more and more people to live in isolation. In this generation there is less of an incentive to heal and reconcile relationships, but that doesn’t excuse the amount of people who are broken. Why people don’t seem to be motivated to heal relationships is because our beliefs about faith and God have changed, really giving us less of an incentive to do what our religion says. If I act from my personal beliefs, but the person that I am responding to has abandoned religious beliefs, than the response to my wanting things to be better can be misinterpreted and rejected then by someone else. Generally when a society has expectations about broken relationships, loneliness and isolation, and the beliefs are generally accepted, society becomes a more compassionate society, because all value the same things. When religious values are undermined and ...

The Biblical Meaning of “Life in the Spirit.”

  “Life in the Spirit” is an example that the Apostle Paul gives in the book of Romans starting in chapter 5 and going through to chapter 8. He begins by telling us we are justified by faith (5:1), and have gained access by faith into the grace of God (5:2). We have been delivered from God’s wrath (5:9) and we have been reconciled to God through the death of His Son (5:10). He goes on to explain that through Adam all die (5:12), and that the free Gift of God brings justification and righteousness to the believing sinner (5:15-17).   Through our conversion we are baptized into Christ and into his death, which frees us from the law and makes us dead to sin (6:2-4). He explains that just as Christ was raised from the dead, we are given new life in Christ (6:4). Our old unregenerate self was crucified with Christ so that our body of sin might be done away with (6:5-6). Because we have died to sin, we now submit ourselves to God being that we are now under grace, not the law (6:8-1...
