Remembering Add on


Following Jesus means that you give up pride and also along with giving up pride, you accept the fact that your strength Is weakness and that in your weakness? Christ is made strong at your strongest point. You do not have the ability to forgive your sin, you just don't. 

In fact, we're sinners. Every person within the sound of my voice is a sinner. There is no such thing as a human being who is not a sinner. 

There are people who claim that they do not sin, and it might be true, they could get away with a day, maybe possibly even 2 or 3 without committing a heinous sin, but they're sinners, because every person that is born of women as Paul says, is the sinner. Now, what that means is we do not have any sort of luxury to lay back in judgement, say, "Well, you know what, I haven't done that." And so, "look at me, how good I am", that's pridefulness, and when we go to God in prayer, if we've got pridefulness in our heart, why? 

Would we expect that God would hear that prayer? Other than to try to correct our pridefulness, let that sink in; if you've prayed pridefully to God as just about any question, is going to be guilty of having prayed a prideful prayer at some time in their thousands of prayers, so don't feel guilty about it just understand that it happens. You've overlooked the magnificence of being what Paul calls weak and Paul says, when I am at my weakest Christ is at his strongest, and that is, in fact I think about the simplest of things which are the most profound, because very often simple things are the most profound?  Einstein said, if you can't explain it to a sixth grader, you don't understand it well enough. 

And I think about something that you know, if you're gonna, if you're gonna walk a mile in  someone else's Moccasins, to get an understanding of what their walk is like, you better get over your aversion to stinky feet. Because we've all got stinky feet at some point. 

In the process, none of us are sinless. Therefore, as sinners repenting and asking Christ to forgive us about sins let us go forth teaching others who are sinners that we can get into the act of washing their feet before a holy God, just as Christ washes all of our feet before a holy God, and we can say to that Amen Jesus, Come soon.

Bro. Ricky your feedback is so appreciated. Writing such in the Bible belt is so different than where God has you ministering. Thank You for your faith. In Christ Amen

View on Vocaroo >> Why laugh? 🤣 Heard a short on the joy of the Lord is our strength? Made me remember, that is recount, which in working with learners (disciples), is the time to recertify, which is an old but very true Newspaper writer saying: "Tell them, then tell them what you told them, then tell them once more memorably." Huh? How do you make a three time repeat interesting? Remember your first...? 🤣 In my pretty boring, unexciting, calm life; I've been fired lots of times. Sometimes it was on me, sometimes, it was on them- now, watch this one- it's gonna getcha, sometimes it was on God. Ooh that'll make some folk getonup😆But watch this:  Jhn 9:1  -  And   as   Jesus   passed by,   he saw   a man   which was blind   from   his   birth. Tools Jhn 9:2  -  And his disciples asked him, saying, Master, who did sin, this man, or his parents, th...

View on Vocaroo >> Tasty, is a lovely word, sounds near sweet? Tenderloin is one of our favorite meats, as a meal we eat it with Rice-a-Roni or just rice; usually I try to make some gravy to go with the rice, and we have a vegetable. There is almost always some left over meat that I refrigerate in it's juice. A day or two later put that into a pan, as the frozen meat and juice heats up it fills the pan- then I'll add barbeque sauce to that and it boils down to the point the tenderloin falls apart and it's now pulled pork bbq for a marvelous sandwich. Tasty, it really, is. When Holy Spirit drew you from hell, usually by bringing you to your senses, of how messed up you were? When Holy Spirit does that, you are like a cooked meal that's been set aside in the refrigerator- you are preserved, but your function is stopped. Before, you were a meal, now, your just preserved. Holy Spirit gets hold of you, now you may feel some heat, you will be changing- becoming what ...

View on Vocaroo >> There are so many memories to your Christ experience. Remembering is in a very unsalted way, forming your story of what Christ has done. Get who, what, when, where and possibly why or how, together so it makes sense. Now we season... Dana you mix metaphors a bunch, we're writing, your using a cooking analogy? Ah you caught me...throwin Jalapenoes instead of pepper...and I'm in great company, the gospel is loaded with things that are like other things, the Bible has tons of metaphor...oops, that's a pun, huh? A coin, in a fishes mouth? To pay taxes? For both of them? See any metaphor there? Miracle aside, Peter a now fisher of men? Jesus now proving his earthly existence- ooh, here's one for history buffs, did the takers of taxes keep records? (Matt 17:27) What miracle, other than new birth, eating food that turns into energy, bones? Water rather than air? Both have Oxygen one way it's wet, the other we breathe, now can you begin to glimps...
