Let's Celebrate Life

I often sit down and think about the great people in History. I think about writers and Political figures. I even sometimes think about Blacksmiths and carpenters that there is no record of ever living. People that get lost in the cracks. People who never had birth certificates or church records. These people who lived their life without any thought of being remembered.

So many people whether kids or adults can tell you the name of Sports Stars or Actors. But how many of us know the Doctor who delivered you? How many people know the Pastor who Baptized you? I think about those people who have touched our lives so deeply in different times of our lives that we forget.

Let us Celebrate Life and all the people God has placed in our life. He gave us so many different classmates in school (Grade and High School, even College). These people that helped to develop us into who we are today. Even your teachers who tried to mold those impressionable minds.

But Celebrate the Life God has give you. Now think about if you had never existed. How many of those people would not be who they are today? If you had not been their to save them from bad choices? If you had not influenced their bad choices? If you did not talk to them about issues of Life? How would their lives have changed? Sometimes I think that people's lives would have been better and other times I wonder how they would have survived.

Celebrate the Life God has give you to make a difference. He has placed you on this earth for a purpose. You are here not just to show the Love of God. You are not just God's witness of how to live your life. You are his messenger sent to tell people how God loves them and desires to use them. Or maybe your message should be that Christ died for their sins and the grace of God has come for all of us. He is their with you when you speak opening people's hearts and minds. It is not about understanding but out believing.

Celebrate Life because God has given that life to us all. Just as he called Jeremiah to stand before Kings and the People. Jeremiah's call also tells us "Before I formed you in the womb I knew you, and before you were born I consecrated you' I appointed you a prophet to the nations." We are not all Jeremiahs. But we are given a gift of Life to share with other people.

Celebrate Life and live like there is no tomorrow telling people today they are forgiven. Do not hold back the message for the perfect time, but shout it from the mount tops. Tell everyone you know that Jesus Christ is Lord.

Thank you for reading this message.

Set Theory on the Trinity

Many Theologians are not Mathematicians. But Theologies are really into Science. For some reason there is a greater cross over between Theology and Science than any other fields unless you Separate Math and Physic into different fields. But Set Theory at its basic is the idea of taking sets of numbers or things and showing relationships. We see this in Matrices or Venn-Diagrams. Now Theologians generally speaking would use a Venn-Diagram to describe the Trinity. A Theologian would usually talk about three circles one being the Father and another being the Holy Spirit and the Other being the Son. Thus, where these circles connect that is then called God. But this means that there is part of the Son which is not God. Part of the Holy Spirit which is not God. And part of the Father which is not God. This is not true. Rather you take a list of Sets. Take Set God which contains all the attributes of God. Then you take a Set called Holy Spirit it would contain all the attributes of God and y...

The Death of the Holy Innocents

Many people die for what they believe in. Some die for righteous people. But these chosen few die on behalf of the one who will save us all. These children have all sinned and fallen short of the Glory of God. But these children die on account of the Christ Child. Many people have been martyred because they confessed the faith. These children did not stand or even get a chance to stand. They were cut down because they were seen as the threat to King Herod. Rachael mourns for her children. Rachael died giving life to Benjamin near Bethlehem. Rachael now weeps as all the children of this town are slaughtered. But just as Rachael died giving birth to life. These children die to protect the Christ Child who left the town and will die to give all of us life. St Peter once said that he would not allow Christ to go to the cross. St Peter drew his sword in the garden to die for Christ. But only these Children truly give their life for Jesus Christ to live. Their sacrifice should b...

Biblical Marriage

Marriage is defined in Genesis as a man clinging to his wife and the two becoming one flesh. This definition is standardized even in the New Testament by both Jesus and St Paul. Therefore, we have generally said Marriage is defined as one Man and one Woman being joined together in a life long union. Most people think that this Marriage union is created through a man dressed in black and woman dressed in white walking down an aisle to be joined together before some kind of altar. But this is only a ceremony of marriage. The Bride and bridegroom are actually joined together through what is known as consummation, or proper sexual relations.  Thus, St Paul can even talk in reference to a marriage bed. This concept may be overlooked by a culture that no longer views the bed as the place where a majority of sexual activity takes place. But he states this because the marriage bed is the location in which a man and woman are joined together. Just as it was Rachael or Leah's tent in which t...
