Brooknom's world

I am by no means an expert on languages and or translating especially ancient hebrew for that matter. I am a disciple of the Lord Jesus Christ and a student of the Bible. I try to pay as much attention as possible when I'm reading and studying my bible.

What I saw coming out of the DNC convention did not compel me to jump on board at all, How about you?

I have no self sufficiency all my sufficiency is in God and him alone 2 Corinthians 3:5

There is always the debates and the back and forth with atheist and intellectuals. There is nothing wrong with questions and I have no issue with someone criticizing my belief. I hold fast in my profession of faith trusting God and also knowing that there are very logical reasons for trusting the Bible contrary to popular belief.

How do we build our knowledge concerning God?

I have many questions about the Democratic presidential nominee. I am sure these questions won't get answers any time soon but we need to ask ourselves these things.

Proverbs 18:13 is a good  verse to go to when sifting through issues and trying to figure out what position you will hold. Sometimes we can't get certain information, sometimes access is cut off, in some countries access is controlled. So there are always unique situations that will take different unique ways to apply this truth. What doesn't change is we as Christians need to hold to the standard God set out for giving and answer to a matter. For those of us who do have access to information we need to way as much of the information as possible against how we answer. We need to be able to think circumspectly seeing things from as many angles as possible and filtering our answers and approaches through the Bible.

Here we look in the book of 1 Chronicles chapter 19 and we see what happens when Hanun reacts based on false information. we see in verse 3 Hanun receives false information and doesn't check the source which he did have access to. His reaction is misguided due to false information Verse 4. Now there is a problem being addressed that would not be a problem had he had all the facts verse 6. In verse 19 there are heavy consequences to this false information that could have been avoided 

If you believe something so special as God paying your debt, making a way for salvation to which you have no works to bring, would this not compel you to action. If you say you hold this belief and it causes in you no need for action do you really believe it. Do not get it confused salvation is in fact by faith alone in Christ alone through grace alone.

The Debt has been paid for us we don't have enough
