I Am NOT Obligated


I (Philip) am not obligated to obey God or act right because I am a Christian. I reject legalism and hate what it does to those who just want to be loved and appreciated.

It tears my heart up to see and hear the anger that is stirred up by legalism. Many people push their religion on their children or relatives, those closest to the heart. They come down from their righteousness and judge and condemn the very ones they love, then wonder why. Why do our loved ones reject God saying He does not exist or if they end up in Hell for the way they live so be it. Their heart becomes hard to were it takes a miracle to reach them.

Listen, no one likes living that way, living under guilt or persecution. No, not even from the ones they need the most, it pushes them away.
Stop pushing your righteous crap on me, I am an adult now and can live how I want to.
Sound familiar? I have seen this everywhere my entire life for I also was a victim. It pushed me away from God for many years.

Hey you, up there in that pulpit, stop preaching the bad news and start sharing the good news of grace, please, I plead with you. Time is running out.

Can you see the tears in my eyes, can you feel my heavy heart or shallow breathing.

May I quote someone special...

In Galatians, Paul addresses and emphasizes a subject that is very important to me and should be to all believers: the grace of God.
Many people tend to approach God through the Law, which simply means doing what is right and obeying the "rules" of Christianity. This is called "legalism."
Galatians teaches us that we approach God through grace—which is simply God's power at work in us, causing us to want to obey Him and enabling us to do so.
Legalism teaches that we obey God out of obligation; grace teaches that we obey out of love. Legalism urges us to "act right" through works of the flesh, while grace enables us to "be right" by the power of the Holy Spirit.
The Everyday Life Bible.

Stop trying to change the world through your efforts, you are useless to God that way, counterproductive. Allow His Spirit in you to guide your heart to reach out to those we love. Not in your way but Jesus loving way.

Are you reading your bible? You say yes, well maybe your not listening to your inner voice. Your too proud or set in your religious ways to hear.

Tell them they are not obligated to do anything, including love you, if they choose not to.

Put your heart in your Heavenly Fathers hands and leave the consequence up to Him, for the love of God and your children.

Damascus, Heap of Ruins


Isaiah 17:1-2 (AMP)
1 THE MOURNFUL, inspired prediction (a burden to be lifted up) concerning Damascus [capital of Syria, and Israel’s bulwark against Assyria]. Behold, Damascus will cease to be a city and will become a heap of ruins.
2 The cities of Aroer [east of the Jordan] are forsaken; they shall be for flocks, which shall lie down, and none shall make them afraid.

If Hezbollah takes over Lebanon and or if Hezbollah launches it's new missile stockpile towards Israel cities, Damascus will become a heap of ruins.

Israel's Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu and Defense Minister Ehud Barak decided to release the minutes of the deliberations on an air blitz against Damascus - held in Jerusalem before and during the Yom Kippur War 37 years ago - as a strong warning to Syrian President Bashar Assad, debkafile's military and intelligence sources reveal. Then, a decision to take out Damascus to halt the Syrian offensive was overruled. This time could be different: Bashar Assad regime's own centers of power could be at risk if Syria and Hizballah go through with their plan to overpower Beirut and topple Saad Hariri's sovereign government.

Examining Black Loyalty to Democrats

2 Corinthians 13:5 (AMP)
5 Examine and test and evaluate your own selves to see whether you are holding to your faith and showing the proper fruits of it. Test and prove yourselves [not Christ]. Do you not yourselves realize and know [thoroughly by an ever-increasing experience] that Jesus Christ is in you—unless you are [counterfeits] disapproved on trial and rejected?
