My Prayer to God
Hi my Savior for you are the Alpha and the Omega, the one who had always been and will always be. You have saved me by grace and shown me many things. I am very grateful for all you have given me and if I could I would give you a big hug. Meanwhile I will walk with you, and talk to you as a friend as you wished all humans to do.
Please continue to teach me each day something new. Your simple message and simple law is so understandable to me, it has gained me freedom from the world and the ability to smile at the ones under illusion.
Please forgive me for my wish to just stay away from people. Over the years I have gotten pretty disgusted with people, I no longer go to church, and I feel it has a purpose and does serve a need to allow people the freedom of choice to come to you, but alas I grew weary of their antics. I much prefer to simply talk to you, one on one, I can trust you, I cannot trust my fellow humans and they for the most part although the mean well, simply do not understand. It is a mess is what it is, many things have been taught in the church for so many years, and it has become an untrue religion. It is a religion not the truth you so much wish us to understand.
I recently joined a religious site on the internet , I was curious, I read, I paid attention and I did learn. So many things on the internet are so bad and so wrong, I hoped I could find one that spoke your word, without the rules of man, the illusions of years of teaching and one that was aware of just your simple and understandable way. But I found this site just like the church. People set in their ways, and teaching the things of man. Not your simple law to just enjoy life, to give you thanks for it all, to follow you and you will give the answers. Alas they are caught up in mans laws, customs and do not understand the simple message you have placed in the bible.

They wish to carry on with mans laws and continue to oppress and discredit the woman. To continue to hammer her down. Just as many bad things have been done in your name that you had nothing to do with, such is this even in today’s religion.
A great many subjects they find it best to avoid, they hide their head and bury it in the sand. Something as simple as a young man or a grown one masturbating. They do not come to you, they are afraid to, or maybe ashamed to ask. They do not understand many things. For example you created us as sexual beings, with a drive to procreate the earth. They do not understand that sex within your laws is to be enjoyed, and that to cause a young man entering puberty, to become so fearful of sin that it may harm him for life, that is it not a sin , it is a natural release of the biological system that rules all mankind and all things of creation. They do not understand that woman was meant to be pretty, to be enjoyed and they are a joy to see. That when you told us that to lust after a woman in your heart it is wrong. It has a very deep meaning.
They seem to hang unto that, and not accept you can enjoy the beauty, and natural allure of a woman, to have dreams and fantasy about this, but to act on it and create situations of sin, adultery and so on is the true meaning of your word. The thing man does is the sin.
There was a subject about body piercing , tattoos and the like. Your message is quite clear, we were made in your image, to do such things is to change our bodies. You find this offensive and have place in my heart that it is also offensive to many.

Well enough examples.

I pray to you Lord that you open their eyes. That you show them the truths of things from so called natural disasters and the slaughter of those who do believe in you, that the fear of death is not too important to you, that you will take care of them and as man does have free will, sometimes bad things do occur. But you hold them all in your hands.
Show them how to listen to you, to test and avoid mans laws, to live within those they have to get along and live life, such as paying taxes, obeying the rules of the land, but to come to you for all the other things.

Please forgive me my Savior, I grow weary of them. I wish to simply avoid them. Your simple law has become a religion under illusion. They have done as you said they would,, They have become scholars and theoligists of your word. They cannot see the tree for the forest, they have become fools as you said they would.

Please forgive me, I would love to teach them the word, but I most of the time feel like just smacking them. Lol!! They do not understand joy, humor and simple things.
So I will simply continue as I have, I will say Hi to you every day. I will give you a hug with my spirit and continue to allow you to teach me. I will be kind. I will never with intent cause harm to anyone. I will be patient and in person try to live my life for example.
I grow weary of fussing with the religion situation. Religion is so far from your word, it caused me great concern.
So lord please open their eyes, allow them to see you, your law and how really simple it is.
I love you with all my heart, one day I will give you that hug.

Kit


Please read and consider before you delete this. There is a great message in it to all.

I ask that you all forgive me also, I just find fussing about silly things, well just that silly.

I came, I saw I learned and again I retreat. I prefer to talk to God, not fuss over the religion of man.

See ya all in the next life.
 
Even though they do not come on the site now, that is part of the reason I stayed away. We pray and ask Jesus to help us be a mature bride, and what are we doing? Debating. Jesus did not tell us to become theologians and scholars of His Word. He didn't tell us that we need a degree to preach His Word. He told us to simply preach His Word.

How much longer will we continue to walk with this yoke of religion tied on our necks? Did Jesus ever say we should follow a religion about Him? No. Did Jesus ever say that we were to do anything because someone told us it's in God's Word? No. He, ultimately, told us to test all things and to hold on to what was good. If what they tell us is truly in God's Word, then fine. But if it's not, we don't need to listen to them.

Church, it is time we stop debating. It is time we stop trying to convince each other that a certain doctrine is correct and another is wrong. It is time we stop debating the timing of the rapture; it will happen when God decides, not us. It is time we stop debating over the gifts of the Spirit. They are around, as God has not changed; we have.

Church, there is a world dying out there. We want people saved, and yet we're spending all our energy just trying to "correct" another believer. Let us all agree in one thing: Jesus Christ is God!

It is time, Church. We are in the last days, and Jesus is returning much sooner than anyone thinks. Will He see a bride working as one, or will He see a bride fighting and debating? Will He come for a Body of Christ, or will he come for bodies of Christ? Will He take home a Church, or will He take home denominations?

Continue to preach the Gospel, you who preach it. Continue to be as one, those who are unified. Wake up, those who have forgotten what Jesus has commanded. Let us work as one body, not multiple dysfunctional parts. There's a reason why we aren't seeing as much revival as we'd like; it's because we're too caught up in ourselves that we aren't heeding God's voice.

Marana tha!
 
If I may Kit, since I know you are probably out there looking in...

There is one teeny tiny problem with your prayer... you seem to have forgotten that you (and I) and but silly people too.

You cannot rightly pray that Father allow you the grace of "continue to teach me each day something new" if you dont offer the same grace to others who still need teaching too.

In essence, what you have just said is "I give up on my brothers and sisters, but Father you cant give up on me........because, unlike them, I have all this ability to understand you"

Wisdom [ability to understand] is a gift from Father...perhaps if He found your lack of wisdom as unbearable as you seem to find others...then He could help you with your problem by taking a little from you and giving it to them?

You need to read the New Testament again, see that the church was no different in its beginning than it is now, and we contend for the faith for no different reasons now, than they did then.


Jud 1:3 Dear friends, although I was eager to write to you about the salvation we share, I found it necessary to write to you and urge you to continue your vigorous defense of the faith that was passed down to the saints once and for all.


Maybe we all prefer to only talk to Father.

The question is what does Father prefer?

1Th 2:1 For you yourselves know, brothers, that our visit to you was not a waste of time.
1Th 2:2 As you know, we suffered persecution and were mistreated in Philippi. Yet we were encouraged by our God to tell you his gospel in spite of strong opposition.
1Th 2:3 For our appeal does not spring from deceit, impure motives, or trickery.
1Th 2:4 Rather, because we have been approved by God to be entrusted with the gospel, we speak as we do, not trying to please people but God, who tests our motives.
1Th 2:5 As you know, we did not come with words of flattery or with a scheme to make money. God is our witness!
1Th 2:6 We did not seek praise from people-from you or from anyone else-
1Th 2:7 even though as apostles of Christ we might have made such demands. Instead, we were gentle among you, like a nursing mother tenderly caring for her own children.
1Th 2:8 We cared so deeply for you that we were determined to share with you not only the gospel of God but our very lives. That is how dear you were to us.
1Th 2:9 You remember, brothers, our labor and toil. We worked night and day so that we would not become a burden to any of you while we proclaimed the gospel of God to you.
1Th 2:10 You and God are witnesses of how pure, honest, and blameless our conduct was among you who believe.
1Th 2:11 You know very well that we treated each of you the way a father treats his children.
1Th 2:12 We comforted and encouraged you, urging you to live in a manner worthy of the God who calls you into his kingdom and glory.



While it is natural to desire to retreat from the world bytimes, perhaps even needful, and sometimes Father may even draw us into a wilderness to spend time alone with Him, but there is no need to pray "Father I thank thee that I am not like these" as we go.

You say a mans dreams and fantasies are safe, he has to act upon them to sin.


What is that, your idea of safe sex for the saved?

What does God say?

Jas 1:15 Then when its time comes, desire [those dreams and fantasies] gives birth to sin; and sin, when it is of full growth, gives birth to death.

Jas 1:16 Do not be deceived, my dear brothers.

Still think a man should allow his mind to be impregnated with lust?



2Ti 2:22 Flee from youthful passions. Instead, pursue righteousness, faithfulness, love, and peace together with those who call on the Lord with a pure heart.
2Ti 2:23 Do not have anything to do with foolish and stupid discussions, because you know they breed arguments.
2Ti 2:24 A servant of the Lord must not argue. Instead, he must be kind to everyone, teachable, willing to suffer wrong,
2Ti 2:25 and gentle in refuting his opponents. After all, maybe God will allow them to repent and to come to a full knowledge of the truth,
2Ti 2:26 so that they might escape from the devil's snare, even though they've been held captive by him to do his will.
