The requium.

There is an old saying, "If you do not have anything good to say, don't say anything at all." I really don't know how wise this saying is, because I would say that 90% of our communication is just that.(Communication) We are people who feel the need to share, we share with one another because we love one another. If we didn't love each other, we wouldn't feel guilty when we hide the truth, because I firmly believe in humanity, and despite our lack of love to one another with some it is hatred for those made in the image of God. For when we have come to hate one another, we have lost the purpose for this existence. Not everyone believes in God, and those who deny his existence, deny their purpose for their creation. Hell was created not to scare people into being good, though it does that. Hell was created because God knew that we would make mistakes, and those mistakes are called sin and sin separates us or removes us from the light of truth, Jesus Himself. Hell is not only for those who do not believe in God, but hate him.

You should know the difference between right and wrong by now, how can you learn love? If you have forgotten what love is, you have forgotten what is is to be human. When you loose that, hell awaits you. You will not be human in hell, that is all I have to say about that. When you loose your humanity, you can't loose God, he just becomes a concept and your humanity becomes an illusion. That is why suffering is so important, it binds us to our humanity and to the God-man who suffered for us, 2000 years ago.

    Well said. Without purpose from God we don't have much to live for really. God is our point of direction :)

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...
