The Bible stirs different responses in people. Some hearts are eager and sincere, longing to hear and receive the truth of God’s Word. Others may ask questions only to distract, argue, or waste time.

As believers, we must seek wisdom to discern the difference and respond with patience, grace, and love. Not every conversation will bear fruit immediately, yet every encounter is an opportunity to reflect Yeshua (Jesus).

May the Lord grant us discernment, compassion, and faithful hearts as we share His truth each day, trusting Him to work in the hearts of those who truly seek Him sincerely.

You can talk about once saved always saved all you
Want. How ever John says. "If you love God you will keep his commandments."
If you do not.obey God you do not love Him and are of the devil. No theology, narative or denomination can change that fact and reality

Peace is not the absence of difficulty. It is the steady presence that carries you through it."

There is a kind of quiet strength that doesn't shout — it simply stays. It's the part of you that shows up even on hard days, that keeps moving even without all the answers. That strength is yours, and it is real. Let this moment be a reminder that you carry more calm within you than the noise around you might suggest.

WHAT A SERMON SHIFT: At her November 23 service in Rochester, the pastor of North Chili United Methodist Church publicly declared she will transition to a woman as Phillippa Phaneuf, stated she identifies as as*ual, and said her parents “do not support” the decision. She donned a rainbow stole and told parishioners she’s “not becoming a woman, I’m giving up pretending to be a man,” promising that her ministry would continue unchanged.

Stunts like this should NEVER be celebrated. These people have lost all respect for the sanctity of God and the Church, and, most shockingly, for COMMON SENSE.
Do you agree?
