The whole story.

How would you like to live in a world where nothing is true, just one crisis after another, like being on a roller coaster that never ends. Welcome to the 21st century. Those of us who are getting older and are approaching our mid-life wonder if anything is going to change in our lives and in this world. Is this the world you dreamt you would live in when you were a kid. It seems that when you approach mid life the stress of other peoples problem lives seem to get in the way of you ever finding your way back to any sense of normalcy, which is where most of us generation Xers are right now.

We are fighting for our bread and butter and it seems like with the economic crisis that is rarely talked about anymore is lost forgotten on the younger generation, who still just want to have fun. But those of us who have had our fun just want to live a peaceful life but it seems that life has gotten in the way for most of us and we are so busy supporting that other person that one day at a time we look for those gaps in our craziness to schedule time for the things that really matter.

I really think we need open media at this point, not just opinionated views by a generation that has lost it's way. There is a big societal and psychotic gap in our generation and the millennial's that can only be filled through wisdom, a quality that seems to be despised by our younger brothers and so forth. If this gap isn't fixed there will be confusion for those y ers when they reach our age and need someone to look for wisdom. But this will never happen. This is a lost generation.

The solution to finding your way in a dark world is not to make this world darker but to find the light and live in it, for when you have found the light it won't leave you. But there is a false light that these children live in that resembles reality, but they do not have the memory to remember back to a time pre-September 2001, and like most paradigm changes they don not last. I don't feel that history will repeat itself, I believe it is re-inventing itself. Have you ever seen that movie "Back to the Future" where Michael J. Fox travels back in time and messes with the time space continuum? This is where we are right now. We have two generations living in two different time continuum's metaphorically speaking and they are trying to communicate to one another through two aluminium cans and some string. Their only hope is to take the lessons they are learning now and run to reality (if they can find it) before they get stuck in the past as the world moves more and more into the future. Happy new year.

This is Mike.

On Christian Marriage. (Short)

On Christian Marriage. (Short) The modern co-habitation crisis has produced a lot of single moms and dads, and has fractured "family units" allowing other family members and relatives to take a bigger role in these "Separated families." There isn't a "one cause" why families have separated or divorced, it is a complicated issue, sometimes resulting in very hard emotions for Society to process. Things like the "millennial sexual revolution" have contributed to the widespread "non-committal" attitude, which in turn has given the traditional marriage the "black eye" it currently has and has turned many Christian men away from seeking a life partner. The more society devalues "traditional marriage" the more co-habitation you will see in all the other generations as well as the Millennials. This is Mike.

Why Christians must show Mutual Concern for One another.

  Look and see, there is no one at my right hand; no one is concerned for me. I have no refuge; no one cares for my life. Psalm 142:4. Christians in the church should have mutual concern for one another, this is what it means to be part of the body of Christ, 1 Corinthians 12:25. It’s takes good pastoral leadership to foster this sense of concern, and where it is missing, individuals who are suffering in the church are overlooked and not supported. Every believer needs support and encouragement, but when this is missing, the church divides and loses it power and testimony. Christians live like the world, and become vulnerable to Satan’s attacks when nobody is supporting them outside the church. I used to belong to an evangelical church which had great leadership, and something called small groups. This church felt like a family and I had people who shared my Christian walk with me when I was not in the church building. I have been attending a different denomination that doesn’t hav...

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...
