I am a christian in hiding.

Is it my choice that back in 1999 I was diagnosed with a severe mental illness. Is it my choice that I'm having thoughts that I may be DID. I feel pain and the best way for me to deal with this pain is to be myself contrary to what my brother has been telling me lately, that I live in a dream world where I expect the whole world to revolve around me!!!!What! That is so not true. If you want to know what he called a dream let me explain it to you. It's not that he called this a dream, but this is what I stand for: NO CORRUPTION, WHETHER IT BE IN CHURCH OR THE GOVERNMENT. Just an aside, we have a Hitler like leader in the whitehouse right now who is rebelling against the Constitution: I BELIEVE IN THE DEFINITION FOUND IN THE LAW OF NATIONS BOOK ONE CHAPTER NINETEEN IN REGARDS TO THE PRESIDENT BEING A NATURAL BORN CITIZEN, WHICH THE CURRENT PRESIDENT DOESN'T QUALIFY. I believe in equity and equality for the poor and I believe that it the church not the state who are to show Christ's love to them, regardless of where they are. I BELIEVE THAT TYRANTS WILL FALL AND TRUE BELIEVERS ARE BEING SEVERELY PERSECUTED AS I WRITE THIS, ANDI BELIEVE THAT CHRIST IS WATCHING REGARDLESS OF WHO YOU ARE. I m a christian in hiding.

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...
