My Church
Currently seeking a new Church to attend, but in the meantime,
I shall be sharing some Bible study here:
Bible study:
Re: Do not judge others
I was going to write a piece about that subject, and when I checked
the internet for some Wholesome Christian website resources on just
that subject,
I came across this excellent website, and in fact,
it says all I wanted to say here - so to save repetition, here is the
hyperlink I found:-
Do
not judge
Also, a very good Christian website, again on this very same subject on the
Matthew 7:1 Bible Verse, can be found here:-

Re: Works, not just Faith
As Christians, we have all heard the secular expression - "Practice what you preach" - but indeed we should! I was just reading James 2:17-18 on just that subject.
Here is the text allowed by copyright from the New King James Version Holy Bible:-
17 Thus also faith by itself, if it does not have works, is dead. The New King James Version. Nashville : Thomas Nelson, 1982, S. Jas 2:17
18 But someone will say, “You have faith, and I have works.” Show me your faith without your works, and I will show you my faith by my works. Col. 1:6; 1 Thess. 1:3; Heb. 6:10 [Gal. 5:6]; James 3:13 The New King James Version. Nashville : Thomas Nelson, 1982, S. Jas 2:18.
"Works" here is purely putting into practice our Christain Faith - or, put another way, doing rather than just talking. Also, I have also heard the expression - "An empty vessel makes more noise than a full one" - the Apostle Paul says not to boast about "Good works" - but by simply doing will speak volumns of your Faith in Jesus - but by doing your Ministry for example, that too will set an example for others to follow.
I was doing some practicle things in a local village Church. Now, I can show you my "Works", by these things that were put into practice - some voluntary work.
Tonight, ask the Lord in prayer what your Service or Ministry is - that means your "Talent" or "Gift" from the Lord. And what you feel happy most at what you can do, is generally your "Gift" to put into practice by doing the "Works" of Faith in Jesus - Amen!
So in Christian Love, the next time a worldy or secular person says their "party piece", you can show them.
