The Learned

The greatest persecutor of the church is the church. Sometimes I think it's better for these people to be Mormon than not go to church at all. Let them be. At least someone is trying to save souls. We can't even do a fraction of what they're doing. They may have gotten their theology wrong but they still believe in Jesus and for all you know, that might actually be enough to get them to heaven. I'll take my chances and let them be.  Mark 9:40

I don't think that people really understand Calvinism. I am not a Presbyterian or Baptist but I think people really twist what John Calvin meant, just because of lack of understanding. What he really meant was that God, in His sovereignty is both the beginning and the end. He is outside time, not like us. So He knows what is going to happen before it happens, and He knows the hearts of men. He knows who is going to accept Him, who will reject Him -- who has a chance and who doesn't. God knows, that some people will reject Him, no matter what, because their hearts and minds are made up, and every path led to the same outcome with this person. That's what I believe. God Himself is love. But He is all-knowing. He gave His Son to die for us only because He loved us. But He also knew who will reject Him even though He gave His everything for them. But at least He did His part, and He still died for the people He knew would reject Him. But he also knows the outcome of it which is...

Q: What to do with an unhelpful hubby other than divorce? A:  No expectation, no disappointment. I like that you're a fighter and not giving into this world's cancel culture. Women these days just prefer 'Game Over' and 'Restart' with someone else. That's not real life. And that's not the right thing to do. Family is family. We don't leave family. No matter what. In a marriage, rarely do any couples really get along. So give yourself a pat on the back.  But if I've learned anything, it's that without expectations, there are no disappointments. If we decide to divorce our husbands, we would be single moms anyway. So sometimes I just live like a single mom without having to divorce my husband. It's totally fine -- if single moms can do it, I can do it. It's mainly a paradigm shift. Guys take longer to mature. We are not their moms -- they are not for us to correct.

What is the purpose of earth if Christians could just die immediately and go straight to Heaven? Christianity is not about dying and going to Heaven. If it was, he wouldn't even have created earth in the first place.  Why did God create us? Because He wanted children to have a relationship with Him. But He also gave us dominion over the earth so that His will will be done on earth as it is in Heaven. This world is our responsibility. We need to have dominion and establish His kingdom here.

Seems like reverence and the fear of God is out of trend at the moment. But that's really what needs to be taught these days. 33 For God is not the author of confusion but of peace, as in all the churches of the saints. 1 Corinthians 14:33 Teach them to worship -- close your eyes and focus on Jesus. Jesus is watching so give him your best.  Also, lyrics on the screen helps. It is not in the interest of teachers these days to teach children how to worship God in spirit and in truth. God is Spirit, and those who worship Him must worship in spirit and truth.” John 4:24 But I have learned that one of the main issues is that kids need to learn to worship in the adults church and not separately because that is where the presence of God is strong and they can feel it. Intergenerational worship is lacking in mainstream churches because of the trend to separate kids from the main worship. Therefore, there is no Intergenerational anointing flowing. The Intergenerational Anointing is like a r...

Catholics can definitely take communion in any non-catholic churches they go to. It's fine to take any communion cross-denominationally. It's the same in any church. We worship the same Jesus. There's only one Heaven and one God John 17 - Jesus prays for His disciples  20 “I do not pray for these alone, but also for those who will believe in Me through their word; 21 that they all may be one, as You, Father, are in Me, and I in You; that they also may be one in Us, that the world may believe that You sent Me. 22 And the glory which You gave Me I have given them, that they may be one just as We are one: 23 I in them, and You in Me; that they may be made perfect in one, and that the world may know that You have sent Me, and have loved them as You have loved Me.
