No worries. I wasn't aware by the questioned asked. It has been a while since I've been on the site. You stay ENCOURAGED and well as you continue to fight the GOOD fight of faith! :thumbup:

Wow! What a loaded GOOD question. As an unashamed Believer in Jesus Christ, my belief is DEATH is not the END of life but rather the BEGINNING of it. I recall before I ALLOWED Christ into my life, I use to be afraid of death. As I grew in the Word of God, which my faith is based on, I now understand for those who die IN relationship with Christ our spirit is escorted to the presences of Father God at the VERY SECOND of natural death while our dead body, our flesh returns back to the dust from where we were formed by Trinity according to Gen. 1:26. Almighty God, of the Christian Faith created man with a free will. The freedom of CHOICE. We are here to determine, BY CHOICE, where we will spend eternity when we die. Either with Father God by accepting Jesus into our lives or in the Lake of Fire with the devil and his demons and ALL THOSE who rejected Jesus Christ. After death at the appointed time, ALL of mankind will give an account for what we do or do not do down here in THIS life. Hebrew 9:27 And as it is APPOINTED unto men ONCE to die, but AFTER THIS,( this meaning death), the judgement. I am NOT sharing my faith to convince anyone to believe ME, but to render HOPE in a hopeless world. To render His peace in a world that has NO peace. To render stability in a Christ that CAN NOT be shaken by an ever failing economy controled by the greed of fallen men. I have found As I see all the CHOAS in this world, b/c my HOPE is not in the things I can SEE but in the promises of Jesus Christ. He has PROVEN Himself to be a GOD of His Word in my life & the ONLY REGRET I have in asking Him into my life is...I WISH I had done it SOONER. For ANYONE to dare ask Him to, He IS God enough to prove to YOU how REAL He TRULY is.

WE ALL, as the born again children of God, have "moments" like that. When all we need is a "friendly reminder" of WHO we are and WHOSE we are! For me, when I need reminders or a pick me upper, I LOVE re reading out loud so my ears can hear b/c of Romans 10:17. I have put to memory Romans 8:28-39. It REALLY GETS ME HYPED w/ HOPE, EXCITEMENT, and THANFULNESS! :-D You are ON POINT friend, THAT is what HE wants from U, from ALL His kids, constant communication. You talk to Him than give Him the PLEASURE of talking back to you.

May Almighty God, through His Son Jesus Christ, grant you an EXPERIENCE w/ Him that will leave you with a faith that is UNMOVABLE. He LOVES U right where you are in your life THIS VERY MOMENT Miss Brandi. Just "talk" to Him as if He is your best friend; b/c I PROMISE u with my VERY LIFE, THAT is what He wants to be to you, your BFF! You are NOW apart of my daily prayer as I believe you to walk into God's BEST in ALL AREAS of your being! Stay Encouraged! :D

Miss Brandi to look at this world on the state that it is in can lead to one feeling discourage. I personally, like NEVER before DEPEND on my Christian faith & walk by THAT and not by what I see. I find ENCOURAGEMENT not in the "RELIGON of Christian faith alone but a PERSONAL RELATIONSHIP w/ Jesus Christ w/ all my energy. In the MIST of this CHAOS of a world, I rest in the PEACE provided to me by Christ. I have to have TOUGH SKIN these days to be BOLD ENOUGH as I am to OPENLY CONFESS my faith ESPECIALLY as a Christian. Yet as u see here, I DO IT unashamed & proudly. For this reason, I will express that which I believe BUT I will not get into a war of words and name calling w/ anyone on this form who disagrees w/ me. In all situations, I strive to represent my personal Savior & my Lord, Christ in word and in deed. He expects and deserves that from ME no matter HOW unpopular it is looked upon in todays world. I consider it an HONOR and a PRIVILEGE to be called a CHRISTian. Saying "Yes Lord" to Christ's will for MY LIFE has been the number ONE BEST decision I've ever made and I will NOT ALLOW the pressure of this world, opinions of people, or any matter of government take the JOY of the Lord out of my life. Things are not PERFECT BUT I have an AMAZING amount of inner contentment that leaves me satisfied ONLY b/c of me being in Jesus. I apologize for going on and on but I render NO APOLOGY for the content of this post. Be Safe! :thumbup:

As ALWAYS bmac32, U R CORRECT again! They LIE so OFTEN, THEY BEGIN to BELIEVE what they say. I KNOW to believe the very OPPOSITE of everything they say :thumbup: :thumbup:

The "T***H" coming out with THIS GROUP, Obama being the leader, on ANYTHING would take an ACT OF ALMIGHTY GOD! Seriously! It would be a DELIGHT to see him held ACCOUNTABLE for MINOR things, yet alone MAJOR ones! The COVER UP runs DEEP WITHIN! The government that has taken an OATH to PROTECT it's own in THIS country, Now THROWS the American citizens UNDER the bus. THAT my friend, is the HARSH T***H that is hard to shallow.

1000% YESSS! People who are NOT APPALLED about this CARELESSNESS of the murder of those Americans are heartless & would be whaling a different tune IF it was THEIR loved ones who were VICTIMS of this TRAGEDY under THIS administration. :thumbup: :thumbup:

Rhonda be PROUD of your race as WE ALL SHOULD for the fact that we can't do anything to change the pigment of our skin BUT remember obama is said to be multiracial. He is said to have a little bit of everything in him EXCEPT experience of how to have had a REAL JOB. All liberal/progs democrats believe in spending tax payers money & NOT there own. ALL b****s are NOT in BO's pocket. I am truly one of them that is NOT. I wasn't in '08 & I will NEVER be. I have felt ashamed/ embarrassed even that this man has the same skin color as me b/c of HOW he is destroying the country that I once loved.

You & ME both! I trust obama & his administration about as FAR as I can THROW them. I have learned that wh**ever they are PUSHING; the OPPOSITE is TRUE.

Yes! BUSH was not perfect, neither has ANY PRESIDENT been...but THIS IS THE ONLY President that NEVER in the eyes of the drive- by media that is NEVER 2 BLAME 4 the DECLINE of the country! One has 2 be BLIND & just STUCK on STUPID to keep blaming BUSH who has been out of office now 5 plus years. This IS NOW Obama's economy, HIS POLICES that is paying the Muslim Brotherhood OUR tax-payer's money. What are REAL AMERICANS supposed to THINK?

Back up just a bit Nuclearian! You CAN NOT put all "NEGRO'S" in the same box no more than people outside YOUR RACE should by THIS POST, call U & all those of your race, a BIGOT. Inspike of this post, I will give you the benefit-of-the-doubt & NOT call you a r****t for I DO NOT know you outside this post. Being "BLACK" and BOLD enough to STAND UP FOR MY PERSONAL CONVICTIONS against the POLICIES of President Obama, I catch heck from MY RACE. I BELIEVE in LIMIT government. I BELIEVE in ALMIGHTY GOD blessing me with His strength, His wisdom as HE enpower the fruit of my HANDS to WORK. For THOSE who are unable to work BY ALL MEANS, the gov SHOULD help them. Yet DON'T ENABLE the ENTIRE COUNTRY. I BELIEVE in the FREEDOM of CHOICE not BLAME.

Ooooh I LIKED what you said about O'Reilly: "ADMITTED he was WRONG" & "DIDN'T TRY TO BLAME" ANYBODY. When was the last time YOUR president followed THAT example?

Obama is FULL of HIMSELF & his anti-American destroying this country policies. It isn't ENOUGH for him to SCREW OVER ALL this country has been founded on, BUT he had to also missrepresent, just by SHOWING UP to FLAP his LYING CHOPS, everything Mr. MLK Jr. STOOD for! Mr. King was NOT a socialist dictator want to be. He WASN'T trying to enable the black race to depend on the government. He for SURE wasn't prompting H**E but PEACE with others. Now he had to politicize the memory & legacy of one of the greatest black men that ever live! ALL b/c in it of himself, he is TOO INCOMPETENT to STAND on his OWN TWO FEET. You may call it critical, I call it THE T***H!

Bulls Eye!! No DOUBT about it!! :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup:
