And We Call Ourselves Christians!

I’d say about 1 in 1,000 “Christians” have actually read the bible from cover to cover. Now this is a totally unfactual guess, but the point isn’t the numbers, its the fact that few of us have actually read everything.

I admit, I’m one of these lazy people who haven’t. However…I have started. I am now on page 9, Genesis 12. Praise the Lord!

This brings me to my second point — modern Christianity. We expect our pastors to tell the complete truth, but that’s too bad, because everyone’s interpretations are different, aren’t they? It would be best if we all developed our own opinions and knew all the facts, so no one could lie to us.

So I encourage everyone, read the bible.

This blog…

I’m making this blog into more of a Christian themed blog, as I have changed my blog message/subtitle thing from more of a personal oriented phrase to a general-Christian one.

I’ll continue with the occassional personal posts, but I’m adding more supportive spiritual content, for anyone who comes here in the future (few people ) and sees it.

Maybe they’ll learn something.

I know I learn from my own posts sometimes, especially when I fail. Oh wait, that means always.

GOD IS AMAZING

THERES NO WAY TO DESCRIBE GOD, HES JUST TOO DARN AMAZING.

WE CAN TRY AS HARD AS WE CAN TO DESCRIBE HIM, BY WORD, IMAGE, ACTION, BUT IT DOESNT WORK.

BUT HOW BOUT OUR THOUGHTS? THE THINGS IN OUR MIND, OUR FAITH.

GOD IS AMAZING.

think about that and just praise him, offer all that you are.

Realization

Developing your relationship with God, getting to know him – how do we really do this?

It changes from person to person and the way you get to know him, I’ve been thinking of some ways, or steps rather.

STEPS TO FULL REALIZATION OF GOD

1. Realization of possibility – that there could be such a thing
2. Realization of need – whether thankfulness, guidance, hope, etc.
3. Realization of weakness – self-weakness, humbleness
4. Realization of others – Get rid of worshiping yourself
5. Realization of failure – accepting everyday and more general spiritual failures
6. Realization of realization – you’ll never fully realize God on earth
7. Realization of redemption – it’s all good

I’ve realized that my life is truly a failure. I live for myself and think of myself .. all the time. God, help me, and I realize that I am weak, fail, and need you.

Bay Area Sports Blog?

I’m thinking of making a new blog. It will be separate from this (in other words no I’m not deleting this one) and it will be about bay area sports teams!

Probably focusing on the Giants, A’s, Raiders, 49ers, Warriors, and possibly but probably not the Sharks and whatever the mls soccer team is even called. I’d maybe get a couple of friends to help me with it, but still most likely not.

But the blog would be win. I know it.
