Merry Christmas
I just got done reading some blogs that I read regularly. I chuckled at one and out right laughed at another.. was it yours? you'll never know! Anyway.. I wrote this time for one reason to say:
MERRY CHRISTMAS !!
And speaking of which, some people would get offended by me mentioning the Christian holiday and not the Jewish or African holiday.. My opinion on that.. Get offended and get over it. Anymore it seems that people think they have a constituional right not to be offended and if they are offended by something they have the right to sue! FOR WHAT? You now get money if someone offends you? Insane! I heard a black man on the radio tonight talking about how the white man had done his people wrong for hundreds of years in slavery and made no restitution for it. He said that the white man has been doing it ever since the beginning; taking what they want from who they want. And he now wants restitution for what our ancestors did to his ancestors.. I think at this point it's time for him to get over it. That is in the past.. blacks are not a minority where I live. It is a fact that in Philadelphia, whites are the minority. But who cares who the minority is.. we all bleed red blood, the same color that Christ bled for us. And for that matter we are all brothers! People think that because they are a certain race or color they have more rights that other people. I heard in church tonight that 'what Jesus told us to do is so simple, it is amazing how many people refuse to do it' Love thy neighbor, but no, even Christians argue with neighbors and sue when their neighbor causes property damage or hurts them. Pray for those who hate you, turn the other cheek, if they take your coat give them your other garment too.. last time I heard the thing to do when we are robbed or our car is stolen is to call the police file a report and use our self efforts to get our property back and totally forget about the Lord's commands!! I guess the Bible has become just a book in our bookcase to all too many 'so called' Christians. What about our body? In the life of Christ on earth.. how many times did he seek the assistance of a doctor to 'help' him with his miracles of divine healing.. I counted them all up and go ''' NoNe! "" But today almost every person I know that calls themself a Christian, if they feared for their life because of a sickness they would seek the help of a doctor or medicine.. and then still have the nerve to ask God to heal them! Isn't that little mixed up? It's not both, it's either or! But one thing.::: If God CAN heal,, why medicine and docs too? The simple deciding factor of whether a person really has faith in God is when they get sick do they put their faith for healing in God alone or in medicine too? Speaking of offending, if this blog offends you,, refer to what I had to say about the black man wanting our generation to make restitution for his great grandparents slavery. "get over it". In America we don't have a right of not being offended. Or you could always sue me! But no need for that.. Just ask and I will follow Jesus command on that.. "give to those who ask" so no need to sue if you are offended.. just ask
Oh and since I probably got off the subject there:::
