SUBJ:        DIRECTIONS TO OUR FATHER'S HOUSE. 

            Make a Right onto Believeth Blvd. 
            Keep straight and go through the Green Light, which is 
            Jesus Christ. 
            There, you must turn onto the Bridge of Faith, which 
            is over troubled water. 
            When you get off the bridge, make a Right turn 
            and Keep Straight. 
            You are on the King's Highway - Heaven-bound. 
            Keep going for three miles: One for the Father, One for 
            the Son, and One for the Holy Ghost. 
            Then exit off onto Grace Blvd. 
            From there, make a Right turn on Gospel Lane. 
            Keep Straight and then make another Right on Prayer Road. 
            As you go on your way, Yield Not to the traffic on 
            Temptation Ave. 
            Also, avoid SIN STREET because it is a DEAD END. 
            Pass up Envy Drive, and Hate Avenue. 
            Also, pass Hypocrisy Street, Gossiping Lane, and 
            Backbiting Blvd. 
            However, you have to go down Long-suffering Lane, 
            Persecution Blvd. and Trials and Tribulations Ave. 
            But that's all right, because VICTORY Street is straight ahead! 

            AMEN!!!!! 

            SEND THESE DIRECTIONS TO YOUR FRIENDS SO THEY 
WILL NOT GET LOST.

Hi,

 

Welcome to the forum.

 

It looks like the directions indicate to always keep to the Straight way.

 

So whether you take a right turn or not continue to go Straight in your journey to the Father's House.

 

God Bless You,
David

* He is looking for REALITY: not pretense! * 


Daniel 12:10: Many shall be purified, and made white, and tried; but the wicked shall do wickedly: and none of the wicked shall understand; 

--> but the wise shall understand. <-- 


WHAT IS HAPPENING? ---> * Matthew 24:10-14 * * Luke 21:22, 31-36 * ** 2 Thess.2:3-12 ** ~ II Timothy 3:1-9, plus verses 12-15. * Revelation 22:10-15 * 
* HEBREWS 12:25-29 * 

- and THAT is what's happening. *FOR REAL* 

THE FINAL SIFTING IS IN FULL-THROTTLE!

Hi Len,

 

Yes, do pass that along anything on the forum can (and should) be passed along. It is a great illustration.

 

There are some other good ones throughout the forum. There is a really good baseball one Ill copy it over here along with the post link because we used to post all of these in the same post.

 

God Bless You,
David

The Lord's Baseball Game 

Bob and the Lord stood by to observe a baseball game. The 
Lord's team was playing Satan's team. The Lord's team was 
at bat, the score was tied zero to zero, and it was the 
bottom of the 9th inning with two outs. 

They continued to watch as a batter stepped up to the 
plate whose name was Love. Love swung at the first pitch 
and hit a single, because Love never fails. 

The next batter was named Faith, who also got a single 
because Faith works with Love. 

The next batter up was named Godly Wisdom. Satan wound up 
and threw the first pitch. Godly Wisdom looked it over and 
let it pass: Ball one. Three more pitches and Godly Wisdom 
walked, because Godly wisdom never swings at what Satan 
throws. The bases were loaded. 

The Lord then turned to Bob and told him He was now going 
to bring in His star player. Up to the plate stepped Grace. 

Bob said, "He sure doesn't look like much!" 
Satan's whole team relaxed when they saw Grace. Thinking he 
had won the game, Satan wound up and fired his first pitch. 
To the shock of everyone, Grace hit the ball harder than 
anyone had ever seen. But Satan was not worried; his center 
fielder let very few get by. He went up for the ball, but 
it went right through his glove, hit him on the head and 
sent him crashing on the ground; then it continued over the 
fence for a home run! 

The Lord's team won. 

The Lord then asked Bob if he knew why Love, Faith, and 
Godly Wisdom could get on base but could not win the game. 
Bob answered that he did not know why. 

The Lord explained, "If your love, faith and wisdom had won 
the game you would think you had done it by yourself. Love, 
faith and wisdom will get you on base, but only My Grace 
can get you home."

Hi John. good to see you again. 
David is a very fine Christian and (generally) runs a 
very nice and informative forum here. 

He also shares great little tid-bits like the "Directions 
to the Father's House," and the Baseball analogy. (!) 

I have always found this to be a very nice forum to visit 
and share and learn. 

God bless. 

Len

Hello Len: 
This seems to be a very good forum unlike one of the "make believe Christian forums" that I left a few weeks back. 

-------- 

I am back in Texas now and looking for another project. Have not been on line much for the last three weeks.

7 Ups of Christianity!


  1. Wake Up !!
      Decide to have a good day.
      "This is the day the Lord hath made;
      let us rejoice and be glad in it."
      Psalms 118:24   

 
  2. Dress Up !! 
      The best way to dress up is to put on a smile.
      A smile is an inexpensive way to improve your looks.
      "The Lord does not look at the things man looks at. 

  Man looks at outward appearance,
  but the Lord looks at the heart."
  I Samuel 16:7


  3. Shut Up!!
      Say nice things and learn to listen.
      God gave us two ears and one mouth,
      so He must have meant for us to do twice as much listening as talking.

  "He who guards his lips guards his soul."
   Proverbs 13:3


  4. Stand Up!!
      . . . for what you believe in.
     Stand for something or you will fall for anything.
     "Let us not be weary in doing good; for at the proper time,we will reap a harvest if we do not give up.Therefore, as we have opportunity, let us do good..."
   Galatians 6:9-10


  5. Look Up !!
       . . . to the Lord.
       "I can do everything through Christ who strengthens me".
        Philippians 4:13

     
   6. Reach Up !!
       . . . for something higher.
       "Trust in the Lord with all your heart,
       and lean not unto your own understanding.
       In all your ways, acknowledge Him, and He will direct your path."
        Proverbs 3:5-6


   7. Lift Up !!
       . . . your Prayers.
      "Do not worry about anything; instead
       PRAY ABOUT EVERYTHING."
       Philippians 4:6 

  A POSITIVE THOUGHT

   If God had a refrigerator, your picture would be on it.
   If He had a wallet, your photo would be in it.
   He sends you flowers every spring, and a sunrise every morning.


  Whenever you want to talk, He'll listen.
  He could live anywhere in the universe, and He chose your heart.
  What about the Christmas gift He sent you in Bethlehem;
   not to mention that Friday at Calvary.
   Face it, He's crazy about you.
     

  Invite people here that you care about.
  I thought this was mighty special, just like you.
  Pass this on and brighten someone's day, and remember . . .

  God answers Knee-Mail!
