Adultery, not a nice word.

I promised myself that I wouldn't do this, I will not complain...maybe just a little. I want to talk about the need for reality. There is allot of deception, (as the trash man drives by my window) and nobody seems to care. I called a prayer line today, and the man on the other line seemed so indifferent to my problem. Maybe it's because he is indifferent to the problems in his own life. One of my college teachers said something that has still stuck with me, it was "The great Disappointment." As an artist no matter how much you achieve in life you will always be left with the feeling that despite your accomplishments you really haven't reached your goals. He also told me that I have the feeling that others know me better than I know myself. At that point in my life he was right. Then I grew up.

I'm not the judgemental type, but I know that there are allot of people who would say that I am, for that I apologise. I have a tendency to tell people things that they don't want to hear and I think that is precisely the problem in the 21st century. We don't want to hear anything! The news is selective, church and christian ministries are going into default mode, AND WHY? BECAUSE NOBODY BELIEVES IN THE TRUTH ANYMORE AND WHEN SOMEONE STANDS UP FOR THE TRUTH THEY ARE CONSIDERED TO BE LIARS OR CRAZY. Some one needs to take a stand and say this is wrong and you shouldn't be doing that. BUT THE REASON NOBODY STANDS UP FOR THE TRUTH ANY MORE IS BECAUSE WE ARE AFRAID OF THE CONSEQUENCES OF BEING TRUTHFUL! Didn't your mother teach you any thing?

CHILDREN ARE BECOMING LESS EDUCATED AND MORE STREET SMART, THE EDUCATION SYSTEM IS NOT AN OPEN AND FREE CONCEPT LIKE IT WAS WHEN I WAS A CHILD, AND WE HAVE LOST THE ABILITY TO DETERMINE WHAT IS RIGHT AND WRONG. Canada is a rich nation and should be thinking more of the welfare of it's ageing population, and less about the presidential elections. No I am not telling you what to do I am using my charter rights to inform you we are still a free country.

Some Bible Verses on Money.

Bible verses about money. I bet you didn’t think the bible said that? Proverbs 23:5 When you glance at wealth, it disappears, for it makes wings for itself and flies like an eagle to the sky. 1 Timothy 6:10 For the love of money is a root of all kinds of evil. Some people, eager for money, have wandered from the faith and pierced themselves with many griefs. Proverbs 13:11 Wealth quickly gained is quickly wasted — easy come, easy go! But if you gradually gain wealth, you will watch it grow. Psalm 62:10 Don’t make your living by extortion or put your hope in stealing. And if your wealth increases, don’t make it the centre of your life. Luke 6:38 “Give, and it will be given to you. A good measure, pressed down, shaken together and running over, will be poured into your lap. For with the measure you use, it will be measured to you.” Ecclesiastes 11:1 Cast your bread upon the waters, for after many days you will find it again. Malachi 3:10 Bring the whole tithe into the storeho...

My Story.

In 1999 I suffered a mental health crisis and admitted myself into the hospital where I live, in which I was given a mental health diagnosis. I didn’t want to receive medication at the time, but unwillingly accepted it. I was in the hospital for about two months, when I asked my doctor if I could go home, and he said yes, even though he thought it would have been better if I stayed longer. I was glad to be home though, but at 25, it took some adjusting to feel truly at home. One of the problems I was having at home was it was hard for me to eat the food in the house. I was having a psychosis where I felt the food wasn’t mine, and I literally had to go out to eat, or buy bread from the supermarket and take it home to eat it. Eventually this wore off, but I don’t remember how long. I was now on ODSP and had a check come to me every month in order to have financial support. I would occasionally have a crisis, and ask my mom to drive me to the hospital, but eventually th...

Why has the church lost its capacity and power?

The church has modernized itself and in the process has lost something very valuable. It has lost its capacity to be personable. The way we reach lost souls is by seeing them, by getting to know them, and by recognizing them, but people are getting lost in the church. The church has become a busy place and is also becoming a less holy place. To make disciples we have to get to know people, and technology in the church is depersonalizing souls, and depersonalizing God for them. Faith becomes a marketable commodity, whereas in the past, churches and their leaders nourished and valued personal faith. While faith is still valued, it’s becoming something that is marketable, which reminds me of the story of Jesus in the temple turning over tables (Matthew 21:12-17). The problem isn’t that the church doesn’t work or doesn’t want to share the gospel, it could be how we are doing it. The church is currently being run like a business, and each Christian metaphorically speaking has a profit...
