God judges by motive and mission. Many a noble effort slips by relatives and friends, but God sees and knows all. If we keep in mind that our Brother Jesus missed out on fame and fortune while on earth, then we can forget about reward.

A Gathering Of Souls

Most people move through life reactively believing that their life is in the hands of their creator. Some that have moved on know that their life is in their own hands, and that the power to change is theirs--they are proactive in what they create. When a person takes control of their life, they own the power to change. When you put your life into the hands of God or another, you give up your power to change it, and you will be waiting for a very long time.

The Implanted Word

Christian Fundamentalists -- The High Cost of Being Sincerely Wrong

Goodmorning...I used to be one of you. I know how you think and the Biblical brainwashing you have been through that makes you think the way you do about world events, Biblical prophecy, the Second Coming of Jesus and the Kingdom of God on earth. I know how ministers and pastors, most well meaning, but full of sanctified ignorance and misunderstanding of the intent, origins, errancy and the historical inaccuracies of much we read in the Bible, have filled your minds with misguided zeal. I know how your read and understand the prophecies of the four kingdoms of Daniel and the dreams of Nebuaccanezzar, King of Babylon.
