Radical Christian

Ok, I know I do this quite often but here is another one, this on is going to be different from most any others. First off, if you reading this period, Thanks for taking the time to either be nosy or you just enjoy reading my notes/blogs Ok so first of all, I'm 100% tired of giving into my selfishness and giving into the temptations put in my life. I am doing everything within my power to fix this but that main thing I need to do is just open my heart to God, give him my life. I live my life the best I can for MY GOD but I am only human. As I sit here tonight trying to think of things to do my first lesson/sermon for my youth group I can only think of all those worldy/sinful things I have allowed myself to do. Right now I am listening to a song call "How he Loves Us", the Kim Walker version, if you havent seen it you need to youtube it and just listen to the words. but its talking about how God loves us so so much. I mean think about it, he died a terrible death, he suffe...

4 Love is patient and kind; love does not envy or boast; it is not arrogant or rude. 5 It does not insist on its own way; it is not irritable or resentful; 6 it does not rejoice at wrongdoing, but rejoices with the truth. 7 Love bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things. 8 Love never ends. As for prophecies, they will pass away; as for tongues, they will cease; as for knowledge, it will pass away. 1 Cor 13:4-8 (ESV) I was listening to “Came to My Rescue by Hillsong” on Youtube and in the video I saw a picture where “LOVE NEVER ENDS” was pointed out and I thought I want to find out where that is in the Bible and read on it a little, I don’t know why it struck me but I wanted to read it. So I did, and I found it was loacted in 1 Corinthians 13:8. I read the entire chapter 13 to find out why the writer, in this case who would be Paul I believe, would write Love Never Ends. As I read I found out that LOVE is not only a very powerful word, but if you have t...

ok so I have a few stories here to tell but they are all great!!! First story is about a girl I met over 2 years ago I think on myspace, she and I both we and are Christians. We shared stories about God and enjoyed hanging out together. Well as we started hanging out I found out she has 2 atheist brothers. One of her brothers (AJ) and I talked a pretty good but and I would talk to him about God. I didnt push God on to him but I would tell him different things. I found he wasn't really atheist because he believed in a higher power just not God. Well later this girl got married. She married a guy I thought was a druggie but I didn't want to say anything to her to lose her as a friend, she and I haven't talked in a long long time but last night we did. She said that her husband had been into drugs really bad and I think she did, she didn't really say but she did say she had been to jail like 3 times I think. But she said the third time she went to jail she didn't think...

While we were at camp Louie Gigilo asked us many times “Are you ready?” and I thought to myself, am I ready? Can I hold myself in any situation and still bring glory to God? As I thought about him saying we should go to bars and talk about God, aka witness to people, but I thought am I ready for something like that. I have never wanted to drink nor given into peer presure just because I don’t want to do it. The big question is could I go to the bar and not lust over the girls who wear rather exposing atire. Could I hang around people drinking and not talk like I would if I wasn’t trying to live for God. And I don’t mean cuss I mean talking nasty about stuff and making innapropriate comments. Well I would like to tell you all this, I AM READY and I have been tested. I went with a friend to some of his friends house. I didn’t know anyone but just my friend but Im not shy so I quickly began joking and stuff with the guys. Well little did I know they were going to drink. The brought out al...

I'm back again with yet another piece of something I would like to say. I must admit it is rather frustrating when you look at people who say they are Christians but they love to party, get drunk, and many many other things that are against the Bible. I know its hard to live a life like Jesus did but most people are not even trying and I can believe at the people who will tell you they are true Christians. They probably know the Bible rather well, some know the Bible way better than me... But so do Atheists... And the true believers in Jesus Christ wonder why it is so hard to make someone who don't believe to believe... its because all these people that claim to be Christians but don't have a true relationship with Jesus Christ. I would like to challenge anyone reading this to pray about it first, then go after your friends that say they are a Christian and get drunk every Friday or Saturday. The only thing about this is, if you are the person that says I want to do this an...

1 Corinthians 15:33 NIV - " Do not be misled: "Bad company corrupts good character." NAS - "Do not be deceived: "Bad company corrupts good morals." From this scripture you can get what you want from it but this is what I get. First I put 2 different versions of the same verse because they both help you understand it differently. I like the NIV where it says "Do not be misled" but then I like the NAS "Bad company corrupts good morals" to me this is what it means. If you are trying to live a Godly life but you're hanging out with people who arent Christians or people who say they are and dont try to live the lifestlye then they will influence you. I have seen this a lot and actually I have done this myself before. To anyone who is reading this please try to improve who your friends are if you want to live for God. heres a small story about something that happened to me and one of the first times I ever have seen God show me what he ...
