One man and one woman

Marriage is one man and one woman. No matter what the government says, the only true marriage in the sight of God is between man and woman. I find it strange that there are people who say that they support same sex marriage while at the same time claiming to be "Christian." The only way that a child can be conceived is when a man and a woman come together. And the only true way is within marriage. Pre-marital sex is rampant among the people of today. And what are the results. Usually abortion (the murder of innocent babies). I absolutely hate the fact that people say that abortion is not murder. On what are they basing their opinion? They are using their secular ideas. A true Christian would never support same sex marriage and abortion. And a number of other sins. God created man and woman. God is the Creator of the universe. God says in His Word:
"10As it is written, There is none righteous, no, not one:

11There is none that understandeth, there is none that seeketh after God.

12They are all gone out of the way, they are together become unprofitable; there is none that doeth good, no, not one.

13Their throat is an open sepulchre; with their tongues they have used deceit; the poison of asps is under their lips:

14Whose mouth is full of cursing and bitterness:

15Their feet are swift to shed blood:

16Destruction and misery are in their ways:

17And the way of peace have they not known:

18There is no fear of God before their eyes"

-Romans 3:10-18

Every human being has sinned even Christians sin. Just because someone is a Christian does not mean that they will never sin again. But Jesus Christ (God in the flesh) died for our sins. He bore our sins. And the only way that we can be forgiven is through Jesus Christ. The Word of God says:

"For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved."

-Romans 10:13

That does not mean that you just pray a prayer and then keep living like the world. That also does not mean that you have to work to be saved. We are saved by grace not by works.

8For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God:

9Not of works, lest any man should boast."

-Ephesians 2:8-9

God and santa in schools

Yesterday I was thinking and a thought came into my head about the public school system. I find it strange that it seems ok to teach children about santa. Read them books during xmas about a man that sneaks into houses and leaves gifts under a tree. But if anyone mentions God and the name of Jesus Christ it is considered against the law. Recently an athletic director and a principal in Florida are facing possible prison time for praying in school. Does it make sense? Apparently it's ok for someone to get a dwi and get their license suspended. But if you pray you might have to face jail time. So anyway back to my first thought. People teach their kids that if they're not good then a man driving a sleigh with flying reindeer will not give them any toys. They say santa is watching and if you're not good then no presents. The same thing with the tooth fairy (out your tooth under your pillow so you can get money). But the idea of a Creator, to people seems to be a myth. I think everyone can agree that if you saw an airplane, you wouldn't say "tornado must have went through a junkyard and made that," or if you saw the words drink coca cola you wouldn't say "ooh look cloud evolution." Behind everything that has been created there is a person who created. God created the universe. He is All Powerful. Anyone who says that there is no God is as the Bible says a fool.

"The fool hath said in his heart, There is no God. They are corrupt, they have done abominable works, there is none that doeth good."

-Psalm 14:1

Introduction

This is my first blog. My name is Justin if you didn't already know. I pray that my posts helps those seeking and also those who are already in Christ. I also pray that I continue to become closer in my walk with Christ. I will try to post as often as I can. Maybe include some random thoughts, stories, whatever the Holy Spirit has me write. As I am typing this I am listening to the song Beautiful Like This by Josh Wilson. It is such a beautiful song. Jesus makes all things new. Since I have truly began to follow Christ I have had this unspeakable joy. From darkness to Light, from death to Life, I have been saved by my God, my Saviour, Jesus Christ.

"I am crucified with Christ: neverthless I live; yet not I, but Christ liveth in me: and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself for me."

-Galatians 2:20
