Testimony
My name is Steve until the Lord takes me home and gives me a new name. I am a believer in, and a lover of, Jesus Christ. Although I am human and I fail Him every day, I believe that Jesus is the Son of God; He was born of a virgin, was crucified ) and forgives my sins. His Word (The Holy Bible) says if we deny Him before men He will deny us before His Father in Heaven.

Why the world hates Christians
Why does the world hate Christians? No matter how generous we are or how kind and sympathetic we are to others we are hated because the world hates Jesus (John 15:21-24). Christians love Jesus so the world will hate us just as they hated Jesus (John 15:18). John 8:44 NLT says ” For you are the children of your father the devil, and you love to do the things he does. He was a murderer from the beginning. He has always hated the truth because there is no truth in him. When he lies, it is consistent with his character; for he is a liar and father of lies”.
Some people say (most people nowadays) that Christians try to force religion on them. That simply is not the case. We as Christians are to tell others about Jesus Matthew (28:19-20). It does not tell us to force them to accept Him.

have told you this so that you may not fall away. They will expel you from the synagogues; in fact the hour is coming when everyone who kills you will think he is offering worship to God. They will do this because they have not known either the Father or me. I have told you this so that when their hour comes you may remember that I told you. ---- John 16:1-4

Civil War
Why did we allow our Nation to be ripped apart by the Civil War? How could anyone, particularly Christians ever countenance slavery? How was it possible that someone didn’t come forth as a voice of reason? How could sectional rivalry, money, power and political gain get so out of control, that we ended up with the bloodiest war in our history? Were the people of that time stupid or something?
No, they weren’t. They were just like we are today.
That’s where it hit me…HARD.
They are us, we are them. We are engaged in the same kinds of behaviors they were, the ones that led to war.
Spend a few days watching cable news. Watch it from the time you get up to the time you go to bed… several days. Immerse yourself in it.
Then pick up a good book on the causes of the Civil War. Read what the politicians and the newspapers were saying; hear the volume of the rhetoric and see the stubborn way each side held on to its position. Notice the vitriol, notice the petty rivalries and the complete lack of statesmanship.
Then it will hit you too. What are we- stupid?
You might even want to undertake an honest study of the Book of Revelation, and if you do, you will discover that we aren’t stupid, we are just acting like people do when they leave God’s path, and that this cycle will never end until Jesus returns.
Come quickly, Lord Jesus!
