Brooknom's world

Age does not unequivocally mean a person is correct but we should always give ear to the advice and counsel of those who came before us. There is much to be learned from experience, sometimes there are things you don't learn without it.

I once heard politics jokingly explained Poli meaning many, and tics meaning blood sucking insects. I thought that was hilarious and in some ways true  though it is meant for the most part to be taken hyperbolically . This is another one of those areas that I believe Christians can have a positive affect over. We understand that the world has a final outcome laid out in the Bible but while we are here lets stand and influence when and where we can.

Perspective is everything people often make reference to different judgments God brought down on individuals and nations through the old testament. This is often done by those looking to charge God foolishly or somehow show discrepancy in Gods work. What is often never addressed is the mercy God had on these individuals and nations in allowing time and space to repent before said judgment.

Sex Is Amazing In its proper context and I don't understand why so many of us believers are afraid to admit this and thus deal with the topic. Many people believe as long as you love the person your with sex before marriage is acceptable, bible fact check says nope this is false the proper context for sex is marriage. I will do another episode sometime in the future Lord willing  and go over the problems caused by sex outside of its proper context.

There is no promise of continual good and no trouble in life.

This isn't a new topic I've discussed  this in a previous video but it was on my mind. One of the easiest ways to break a bond is to find the person who won't forgive, the offender is often not the weakest link as some would suppose.

We all think we have the answers within ourselves in the era of self reliance. In all actuality it is ourselves and our own reasoning we need to be spared from.

There are great people who have achieved great things. In the christian world there great men and women who have devoted lifetimes to spiritual matters wether bible doctrine or history. There are people who have achieved great success in the workforce. What we often don't see is the countless hours these people put in during both good and bad times. A journey begins with the first step and the only way to reach your destination is to consistently follow that first step one step at a time. If at any moment in that journey you stop before reaching your destination you will not reach said destination. Mastery begins with consistency and dies in laziness

If we blindly and without thought accept everything that will lead to more acceptance of anything. Though we don't like to admit it many actions unchecked will not be to our benefit, in this exercise our freedom will become our noose. The southern kingdom of Judah was comprised of two tribes Judah and Benjamin. The Northern Kingdom of Israel was Comprised of Rueben, Simeon, Manasseh, Issachar, Zebulun, Ephraim, Dan, Asher, Naphtali and Gad. I could not recall that information off the top of my head so for those who cared to know there you go.

What would you change if it was ever present on your mind that the next moment wasn't guaranteed. We don't know what the next day holds wether it be tragedy drama or joy. With that in mind lets take full advantage of the Now that God has granted us, not consumed with the tomorrow that might never be.
