2-SCRIPTURE VERSES IN PICTURES FROM FB PLUS FEW VERY GOOD WORDS FROM A BROTHER IN CHRIST
Most
people mimic and copy the world around them, never imagining a
lifestyle that is set apart for God. We are not obligated to drive cars
or borrow money or use technology; these are lifestyle choices. Among
all Christ-centric Communities I am aware of, children are not allowed
to blindly consume the world, as if they are obliged. There is no
keep-up-with-the-Jones mentality among the Body of Christ; however, if
the family headship chooses to live among the worldly, become or remain
financially dependent upon the worldly, and do not home-school their
children, those children will be tainted by the worldliness the parents
leave them to: They will be baptized in worldliness even before they
reach adulthood. In order to raise children in a Christ-centric
environment, we certainly cannot abandon them to a secular public school
(God forbid): We cannot raise them in a proverbial Sodom Metro setting!
We are called out ones; we are to be set apart; we do not voluntarily
yoke with the world. There are many Christ-centric Communities, but you
have to be ready to abandon the world, and worldliness, first.
Otherwise, you will always be fighting the darkness. We are to follow
Christ, not culture!Be
ye not unequally yoked together with unbelievers: for what fellowship
has righteousness with unrighteousness? And what communion has light
with darkness? And what concord has Christ with Belial? Or what part has
he that believes, with an infidel? And what agreement has the temple of
God with idols? For you are the temple of the living God; as God has said: “I
will dwell in them, and walk in them; and I will be their God, and they
shall be My people. Therefore, come out from among them, and be
separate, and touch not the unclean thing; and I will receive you, and
will be a Father unto you, and you shall be My sons and daughters” says
the Lord Almighty. (2 Corinthians 6:14-18)Jesus
said to him: If you want to be perfect, go, sell what you have and give
to the poor, and you shall have treasure in Heaven. And come, follow
Me. But when the young man heard that saying, he went away sorrowful;
for he had great possessions. Then Jesus said to His disciples: Truly I
say to you that a rich man will, with great difficulty, enter into the
Kingdom of Heaven. And again I say to you; It is easier for a camel to
go through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter into the
Kingdom of God. When His disciples heard, they were exceedingly amazed,
saying, Who then can be saved? But Jesus looked on them and said to
them: With men this is impossible, but with God all things are possible.
(Matthew 19:21-26)No
servant can serve two masters. For either he will hate the one and love
the other, or else he will hold to the one and despise the other. You
cannot serve God and mammon. And being money-lovers, all the Pharisees
also heard all these things, and they derided Him. And He said to them:
You are those who justify yourselves before men, but God knows your
hearts: For that which is highly esteemed among men is abomination in the sight of God. (Luke 16:13-15)P.A.
