Christ's 'silence' on slavery.
by tec inone of the accusations against christ that some people make to me from time to time is that christ never spoke out against slavery, and so he must condone it.. i would submit that slavery (the forcible enslaving of your fellow man)... is not the root problem.
it is merely a symptom of the root problem.
christ came to deal with the root.

"My sheep hear my voice."
by tec inpeace to you!.
lately there have been some accusations, allegations, concerns, and questions regarding how i hear our lord.
so i thought i would take a moment to nip this one in the bud, rather than have my words twisted further than what they have been.

Building Your Faith Upon the Sand...?
by tec inpeace to you all!.
i sometimes find that i empathise with paul.
with how frightened/concerned he might have been when he started out (and perhaps always), that he would do or say something wrong.

Just wanted to say...
by tec in... how truly great this place is.. i have not been on many forums, but i think this one is unique and strong in a very important way.
it is of course a support group for those exiting the wts, or trying to deal with remaining within it, first and foremost.
but the awesome thing about this place is how it welcomes everyone.

Not fearing Armageddon
by tec insome time ago i was granted some understanding about 'armageddon', and so i am sharing it with you.
i should have shared it when i first received it from our lord.. there is nothing to fear if you are not riding out to make war against someone.
satan deceives the nations and gets them to march against those who belong to christ and god.

'rule' verses the spirit behind the rule (public prayer)
by tec inthe issue surrounding tebow and his public praying, as well as those who pray over their meals out at a restaurant, got me thinking a little about 'rules' in this matter.. and i think that some people have overlooked something.
christ said not to be like the pharisees and hypocrites who 'showboat' their prayers, out in public, seeking praise from others.
if you pray in private, there is no 'showboating'.
