Respect. (Mal. 1:6)




Respect; the first in this 13 part series of my R.E.S.P.O.N.S.I.B.I.L.I.T.Y  as a Christian.









 As a Christian I should respect God and everything He stands for, this means respecting my Pastor, respecting my boss and respecting people that He has put in my life. By obeying, by respecting Him is giving honor where is due, because He deserves it; who else would've died for me? who else would've taken my place? who else would've taken my punishment?

By not obeying Him I am disrespecting Him and everything he stands for, by disrespecting authority I am disrespecting divine order. I should honor Him in everything that I say or do.

By not being on time to work or to church, I am not honoring Him, I am not respecting Him, even partial obedience is disobedience (1 Tim. 5:21)  I need to be more faithful to the service of my church, which means I must be more faithful to God.

If one is faithful to God and honors Him in everything he/she does, God will take care of the details.


We should respect God and everything He stands for, we should be on time to our jobs and to our services at church, we should always obey our pastors because they watch over us (Hebrews 13:17)

Being a Conservative Christian. (Part 1)

The "C" is for "Conscience." Are you always conscience about God when you live about your life? Do you confide in God about your decisions and pray to Him about it? Do you take time to listen to that little voice that keeps you from sinning against God? The "O" for for "Opportunity" Always look for the opportunity to do the right thing, not so people can you see; doing the right thing means that people get to see God in you. Don't call attention to yourself, call attention to God; to what He can do when we are willing to be used. The "N" is for "Neutral" No Christian should be neutral, your either with or against God. We can't root for everything that we think is good. We shouldn't be dragged to the ideology of humanism. Being neutral and a Christian is a oxymoron. The "S" is for "Self" Our "self" should've when we believed in God, when we accepted his gift of eternal lif...

A must....

What have I done? What have you done? Are we really serving our Lord with all our heart and soul? Are we really in love with our Lord? Has our priority changed? Has our values changed? have our focus in life changed? And if so, who made us changed it? Why can't we just accept God's will and stop making excuses, who are trying to hide from? To whom do our hearts belong to to? I must stop making excuses and start living the life that God wants me to live. We must stop making excuses and start living for God and not for ourselves.

Jesus Last Passover. from Bible Analyser

 By the time of Jesus, the Passover had developed into a set form with a number of added rituals. Although people killed the lamb at the temple, they ate the meal privately with friends and relatives (Luk 22:8-13). Among the additions to the meal was a cup of wine, for which the head of the household offered a prayer of thanks (or blessing; 1Co 10:16), and which he passed around among the participants, both before and after the eating of unleavened bread (Mar 14:22-24; Luk 22:15-20). Singing also became part of the celebration, the participants singing a collection of psalms known as the Hallel (Psa 113-118). They usually sang the first two psalms before eating the lamb, the other psalms after (Mar 14:26). It appears that on the occasion of Jesus' last Passover, he and his disciples ate the meal a day earlier than the official time, and probably without a lamb (Luk 22:15; Joh 13:1). If this was so, the reason was probably that Jesus knew that he himself was now the Passover lamb. O...
