Any intelligent fool can make things bigger and more complex... It takes a touch of genius -- and a lot of courage to move in the opposite direction. ~Albert Einstein

Inside the Trees

In the beginning there was this garden and in it was a tree called The Tree of Knowledge of Good and Evil. Now in the end,when Jesus Christ comes back, there will be this tree called The Tree of Life.  So in the beginning there was a tree and in the end there was a tree. So what is in the middle. How about Life. So really its like this the first tree was the start of sin and the last tree was of salvation. Our lives are built in these two trees  because in our lives we see the trees. We start off as sinners and when we become saved it is said that we have eaten the fruit on The Tree of Life and that we will dine with God forever in heaven. So after we become saved what is the meaning of life after becoming saved besides growing old and being tempted by life. Well just answer me this how many of you would be saved right now if every christian went to heaven after coming to know Christ as their own personal savior. So we must all share God,is what I am trying to point out,because that is why all of us become Christians usually. So may all of you eat the fruit from The Tree of Life and help others join you.David Thompson.

Free Will

Hey, Josh here with my first official post. Oh, no! Someone has put a gun to your head and told you to put all the money you have in their bag. You have to, right? Wrong! Almost anyone that believes in God can tell you that he gave you free will. Eventhough it might be in your best interest to put the money in the bag, you don't "have to." If you're in school right now, you can say that peer pressure is all around, and if you're out of school, you should still remember the peer pressure. Well when you think you "have to" to do something, that's all it is. It's peer pressure, but on another level. There is only one being that can MAKE you do something, and that's God. But God won't make you do something, because he loves you that much. Sure, he'll lead you in the right direction, but God will never make you do something. No matter how much you want to say, "Well he made me do it," you would be wrong. Besides, the Bible said not to cast blame on others, but we'll talk about that in a later post ;). But what if your parents tell you to do something? The Bible tells you to obey you parents. So you have to. Wrong again! Like I said before, it would be in your best interest, but you still don't have to. Eventhough we should follow that commandment, the Bible never FORCES us to obey our moms and dads. Don't get me wrong, I believe we should follow God's commandments, but I was just making the point that the Bible has never forced us to do something, just like people can't. So yes, you should obey the Bible (and your parents), but I can't force you to, right? ;)




God bless ya'll,

Josh

My Great BLOG Friend and Companion

Hey guys, this is Josh here with you today and I'm going to tell you a bit about myself. First off, I'm in 7th grade and I am the creator and administrator of this fanpage on Facebook: http://www.facebook.com/pages/The-Cross/198073002257?ref=nf. I love all of the Bible, but my favorite book is Revelation. My favorite Christian singer is Chris Tomlin. God has blessed me with wonderful friends and family. My whole family is Christian except for my pappaw's family, who are 7-day advenist. Anyway, I look forward to teaching ya'll about God and spreading the Word.




God bless you,

Josh
