“Faith is a Choice”

My Journey of Faith

“Trust in the Lord with your heart
and lean not on your own understanding;
in all your ways acknowledge him
and he will make your paths straight.”*
– Proverbs 3:5-6 (NIV)

* and/or “direct our path and make the right way through life for you”

“Faith is a choice.”

“‘For I know the plans I have for you’, declares the LORD, plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future. Then you will call upon me and come and pray to me, and I will listen to you. You will seek me and find me when you seek me with all your heart. I will be found by you’, declares the LORD.”
– Jeremiah 29:11-13

“Hating is not the role of humans: judgment is God’s domain. It was my Arab brothers who taught me this.”

Tolerance and Respect

“Close your eyes and remain patient. It’s over once you get angry or yell. It is almost like praying. Hating is not the role of humans: judgment is God’s domain. It was my Arab brothers who taught me this.”

TOGETHER, one mind, one heart, one soul, one small step at a time, we can make some difference towards a better world, a brighter tomorrow

Why Christianity is NOT a Religion

the-light-of-the-universe (from vineandbranchworldministries.com)

Why Christianity is NOT a Religion

The way to be right with God in every religion is by earning your way.  It is based on works, not grace.  Christianity is different from every religion in this aspect: all other religions (including Mormonism, Islam, Hinduism, and Buddhism) state that you must earn the right to be reconciled with God.  It is by what you do in this life (good deeds or bad deeds) that determines your eternal destiny.  Christianity is completely different from this.  It is not religion. 

“The difference between Christianity and every other faith in the world is that all other religions are about man trying to reach up to God.  Christianity is about God reaching out (down) to man.”  

People have used Jesus to justify adding so many “requirements” to being a Christian.

Jesus hated the way the Pharisees used the people’s love for God (or fear of God) to control them, limit their freedom, and empty them of the relationship with God that was intended.

“Being confident of this, that he who began a good work in you will carry it on to completion until the day of Christ Jesus.”
– Philippians 1:6

“Whilst we can (and should) cherish and celebrate our ‘unique’ differences, let not our different beliefs divide us, but let the Spirit of our shared humanity be what defines and unites us as common inhabitants of our planet.”
