(i first wrote this 2 weeks ago... just getting around to posting it now)
Ive never been one to stay single for very long. I always went from one relationship to the next. I spent 7 years with my ex. We lived together for just over 3 yrs. When we broke up i cried, got over it and put my dating profiles back up online. I was moving on.... Time passed, id go on an occasional date but it was really hard. I got tired of telling everyone about me and my life like how my dad passed away when i was 12 etc. Kept thinking well my ex knows all this stuff about me and i dont want anyone else to have to learn it. Of course he had had 7 years to learn it all. I pushed a lot of guys away, some nice, most creeps, because i just couldnt fathom opening my heart up to someone and getting hurt again. A year passed and things got better. Went on a date with no expectations and we just clicked. It felt right. It was great. After having spent a few days together and every day texting i have fallen hard and that scares me to death! We cant predict the future who knows where we are headed or if it will last but im crazy about him. He makes me laugh, theres always a smile on my face when im thinking about him, and being in his arms just feels right. Im happy and hopeful and ready to enjoy every moment we are together! Let the adventure begin!
Since i wrote the above Im happy to say Im head over heels in love with him and things are great! I have never been happier! Looking forward to enjoying my time getting to know him more :)
CHILDREN OF GOD? BY STEVE FINNELL
ReplyDeleteDoes the term"Children of God" include all mankind, regardless of religious belief? Is universal salvation a factual concept? God loves everyone, however, there are requirements and conditions to be accepted as "Children of God."
John 1:12 But as many as received Him, to them He gave the right to become children of God, even to those who believe in His name.
Only those who believe in Jesus have the right to become children of God.
Galatians 3:26-27 For you are sons of God through faith in Christ Jesus. 27 For all of you who were baptized into Christ have clothed yourselves with Christ.
It is through faith in Christ and being baptized into Christ that men become children of God.
Mark 16:16 He who has believed and has been baptized shall be saved; but he who has disbelieved shall be condemned.
Those who have believed in Jesus and have been baptized are "children of God."
Acts 4:10-12 let it be known to all of you and to all the people of Israel, that by the name of Jesus Christ the Nazarene, whom you crucified, whom God raised from the dead---by this name this man stands here before you in good health. 11 He is the stone which was rejected by you, the builders, but which became the chief corner stone. 12 And there is salvation in no one else; for there is no other name under heaven that has been given among men by which we must be saved.
Only those who have been washed by the blood of Jesus Christ are "children of God."
ALL OF US ARE NOT GOD'S CHILDREN!
THERE IS NO UNIVERSAL SALVATION!
