This blog is not really here to try to convince others, but to let those who already believe know that they are not alone. The media and “culture” of this world would have us think that those who believe this way are extreme, isolated, and anti-social. We need to understand that those who believe The BIBLE as the word of God, who love their native South, and who believe in living a good, decent, honorable, and responsible life, will ALWAYS be a tiny minority. “Narrow is the way” applies to all that is good.

Take care and may God continue to bless you.

You said, “Think for yourself.” There is a fine line between thinking for one’s self and inventing your own God and your own religion to fit your own view of the world. When I find things in The Bible that I think, “that can’t be right,” then I have to adjust MY thinking to make it agree with GOD’s words – not try to adjust The Bible to agree with my thinking. The Church is not Israel. The Hebrew people are God’s chosen people. God’s promised blessings to the Jews are for a physical people in a physical world. We who are Christians are a spiritual people with spiritual blessings. God addresses different people in different ways throughout The Bible. There are the Jews, the Church, and the heathen, and we have to read The Bible in its full context so that we understand who He is addressing.

I do appreciate that you took the time to comment and to do so politely even though we disagree. I will not, however, permit what I consider to be blasphemy on this site, which is why some of your comment was cut out. Those who are curious about your position can do a Google search and find out whatever they want. As for me and my house, we will follow and worship the God of The Bible.
