I have a dream.

I have a dream that one day the HNI religius site will be a place where non Christians can see all Christians getting along for the sole purpose of glorifying God.A place where a man is not judged by the denonmination that he belongs too.
A place no matter how thin or thick one's skin is he feels encouraged on here. A place where the gospel is preached in love and wisdom is full of fruits and is easily entreated. A place that is an oasis of living water ...and not one Christian feels left out. A place..where folks study howto answer and considers the opinions of others even more important than their own. A separate place...a holy place ..a sanctuary ..a Haven of rest. A place where folks have learned the art of quick forgiveness...the skill of overcomingevil with good...the skill of using the tongue properly..for the edification of the body and not dividing..a humble people who are quick to serve . a place where the backslidden and sinner can find Christ Jesus.

Jesus prayed that we would be one ...and through this the world would know that we are His disciples.

I agree with you all the way.

And I'm gladto say, lately I don't feel uneasy on this forum anymore.

It's really nice to be able to share our faith even if we don't all practice it in the same way.

Good dream to have Chuck. That's the reason I disregard some posts that may cause division. There is enough of that in the world. This should be a place to escape the fiery darts of the wicked one, and drinkfrom that living water.

Rev..

Amen brother..when I think of victorious Christians I think of a new teacher at our school...Mrs Desuza.This year has been unbelievably tough..YET, the lady always wears a smile and seems to have nonstop joy and peace..My wife is the network manager and sees everyones' classroom. Mrs. Desuza's students are always working quietly. She doen't scream at the kids.She has their respect. She is very sweet..not stock up but not flirty. With my lastest study on "Judges of evil thoughts" I just ask her this question about 5 minutes ago..Mrs. Desuza, I bet you never gossip do ya.? She said with her usual smile."Never, I try to build people up. " I explained to her why I ask and the James 2 passage..I said I bet that's why your always happy...your reaping what you/ve sowed. She just smiled. My desire is to walk in that light.
