• Xanga Time Machine...thoughts (a repost from last year)

  @Saintvi started this little number and I liked the idea so......
  in light of the bad attitudes that have been going around the country this week, this is my understanding of where the "church" ought to be living as a whole.  That said, I also want to be noted as thinking that more of the people who "Seem" to be hating on others are not doing that but only doing their own thing! Which is not the best thing according to this list.  Read on....

  --------------------------------------------------
  Let love be without dissimulation.    (false advertising or pretend acting)
  
  Abhor that which is evil;
  
  cleave to that which is good.
   
  Be kindly affectioned one to another with brotherly love;
  
  in honour preferring one another; (deferring to each other)
   
  Not slothful in business;
  
  fervent in spirit;
  
  serving the Lord;
  
  Rejoicing in hope;  (there's a REASON to rejoice, ttL)
  
  patient in tribulation;
  
  continuing instant in prayer (praying constantly)
   
  Distributing to the necessity of saints; (to other people who serve the Lord)
  
  given to hospitality.
   
  Bless them which persecute you: bless, and curse not.
  
  Rejoice with them that do rejoice, and weep with them that weep. (tears are pretty easy)
  
  Be of the same mind one toward another. (unity is a great accomplishment)
  
  Mind not high things, but condescend to men of low estate. (don't be snobbish)
  
  Be not wise in your own conceits. (other people know a thing or two, too)
  
  Recompense to no man evil for evil.
  
  Provide things honest in the sight of all men.
  
  If it be possible, as much as lies in you, live peaceably with all men
  
  
  
  
  Romans 12:9-18

  Amen!!
