Jerry Brito: Top ten myths about introverts →
jerrybrito:
Myth #1 – Introverts don’t like to talk. This is not true. Introverts just don’t talk unless they have something to say. They hate small talk. Get an introvert talking about something they are interested in, and they won’t shut up for days.
Myth #2 – Introverts are shy. Shyness has nothing to…

The gospel according to MLK...
“Certainly God in His sovereignty utilized Martin Luther King as a catalyst that brought about social change. That , however, does not make MLK any more a man of God than it does Hitler. I know that statement just fell on some of you like a ton of bricks so let me explain. The social gospel taught by MLK is one centered around liberation theology.This ideology renders MLKs Christianity as...

Dialogue: Simeon the Calvinist & Wesley the...
Simeon: Sir, I understand that you are called an Arminian; and I have been sometimes called a Calvinist; and therefore I suppose we are to draw daggers. But before I consent to begin the combat, with your permission I will ask you a few questions. Pray, Sir, do you feel yourself a depraved creature, so depraved that you would never have thought of turning to God, if God had not first put it into your heart?
Wesley: Yes, I do indeed.
Simeon: And do you utterly despair of recommending yourself to God by anything you can do; and look for salvation solely through the blood and righteousness of Christ?
Wesley: Yes, solely through Christ.
Simeon: But, Sir, supposing you were at first saved by Christ, are you not somehow or other to save yourself afterwards by your own works?
Wesley: No, I must be saved by Christ from first to last.
Simeon: Allowing, then, that you were first turned by the grace of God, are you not in some way or other to keep yourself by your own power?
Wesley: No.
Simeon: What then, are you to be upheld every hour and every moment by God, as much as an infant in its mother’s arms?
Wesley: Yes, altogether.
Simeon: And is all your hope in the grace and mercy of God to preserve you unto His heavenly kingdom?
Wesley: Yes, I have no hope but in Him.
Simeon: Then, Sir, with your leave I will put up my dagger again; for this is all my Calvinism; this is my election my justification by faith, my final perseverance: it is in substance all that I hold, and as I hold it; and therefore, if you please, instead of searching out terms and phrases to be a ground of contention between us, we will cordially unite in those things where in we agree.

Looking unto Jesus. —Hebrews 12:2
It is ever the Holy Spirit’s work to turn our eyes away from self to Jesus; but Satan’s work is just the opposite of this, for he is constantly trying to make us regard ourselves instead of Christ. He insinuates, “Your sins are too great for pardon; you have no faith; you do not repent enough; you will never be able to continue to the end; you have not the joy of His children;...

He that endures to the end will be saved. Matthew...
Yes, our individual efforts are the play a part in our endurance to the end. It’s what’s behind our individual effort that really matters. The Christian will be saved and will be brought to final salvation in the end only because of the merit of Jesus Christ. Because of His life, death, and resurrection, all who believe and trust in Jesus and His work on the cross will be saved and kept by His...
Let there be LIGHT!!!!
I believe that the single heart of one man, that even slightly rebels against God, is utterly worse than any & every natural disater that has ever transpired thru out the span of history. But I equally believe, and am very sure, that one of blood from the vein of the God-man, King Jesus, applied to that same sick heart can cause a miraculous 100% cure andchange, that matches what God did at...

Do you use profanity? If yes, why? If not, why...
I used to. I didn’t cuss LIKE a sailor, I WAS a sailor. lol. But do i use profanity now, no. America has restricted profanity to a few “four letter words” (I never knew that meant, anyway) But there are multiple ways to be profane that God doesn’t just limit to a couple words or phrases, (although, even in secular society, are profane.) The Bible says, “Do not let any...
Isaiah 53
1 Who has believed what he has heard from us? And to whom has the arm of the LORD been revealed? 2 For he grew up before him like a young plant, and like a root out of dry ground; he had no form or majesty that we should look at him, and no beauty that we should desire him. 3 He was despised and rejected by men; a man of sorrows, and acquainted with grief; and as one from whom men hide their faces...
Religion? Relationship? Or Both?
What is the stigmatic animosity toward the term “religion”? Is it a wrong to say that Christianity is a religion. The book of James uses it. Do you think it’s fair to start making a distinction TRUE religion and FALSE religion?
”I’ll start from the scripture in James. James 1:26-27 says “If anyone thinks he is religious and does not bridle his tongue but deceives his heart, this person’s...

What qualities should a Christian man look for in...
But what stands out to me is if Jesus Christ is truly in a woman, and He is the center of her life. Not from merely being in church, not merely because her parents are saved, but an authentic walk w/ Jesus Christ. I don’t like females to take Christ, and his work, lightly. What stands out to me is a woman who, loves God and His people, an immense personality, sharing, organized, prompt, one...

Divine resurrection, wherein our hope lies.
Jesus’ resurrection is the key to the Christian faith. Why? Just as Jesus said, he rose from the dead. We can be confident that he will accomplish all that he has promised. Jesus’ bodily resurrection shows that Christ is the ruler of God’s Kingdom, & we can be certain of our own resurrection. The Divine power that raised Jesus from the dead is more than able to bring our...

How do you get out of the way of prayer so that it...
The closest the Bible comes to giving a “pattern” for prayer is the Lord’s Prayer in Matthew 6:9-13. Please understand that the Lord’s Prayer is not a prayer we are to memorize and recite to God. It is an example of the things that should go into a prayer—worship, trust in God, requests, confession, and submission. We are to pray for the things the Lord’s Prayer talks about, using our own words...

There are different translation methodologies for how to best render the original Hebrew, Aramaic, and Greek into English. Some Bible versions translate as literally (word-for-word) as possible, commonly known as formal equivalence. Some Bible versions translate less literally, in more of a thought-for-thought method, commonly known as dynamic equivalence. All of the different English Bible...

The Bible contains plenty of information about serving in the military. While many of the Bible’s references to the military are only analogies, several verses directly relate to this question. The Bible does not specifically state whether or not someone should serve in the military. At the same time, Christians can rest assured that being a soldier is highly respected throughout the Scriptures...

The Bible consistently tells us that homosexual activity is a sin (Genesis 19:1-13; Leviticus 18:22; 20:13; Romans 1:26-27; 1 Corinthians 6:9). Romans 1:26-27 teaches specifically that homosexuality is a...
