Life: The Two Edge Sword

Good Morning World! Life always cuts two ways. We are almost never just a victim. If we are honest with ourselves, often our motives weren't pure, our agenda was contradictory, our interests were elsewhere, our hearts weren't in it...then we get hurt & cry foul. We can cry foul out loud because the true agenda of our hearts was unspoken thereby we may deceive ourselves and others. Have you considered yourself today?

They that sow in tears shall reap in joy. Psalm 126:5

He that soweth iniquity shall reap vanity: and the rod of his anger shall fail. Proverbs 22:8

Be not deceived; God is not mocked: for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap. Galatians 6:7

But every man is tempted, when he is drawn away of his own lust, and enticed. James 1:14

Quote of the Day: All sides in a trial want to hide at least some of the truth. Alan Dershowitz

“Peace and justice are two sides of the same coin.” Dwight David Eisenhower

Amnesty is as good for those who give it as for those who receive it. It has the admirable quality of bestowing mercy on both sides. Victor Hugo

Cause and effect are two sides of one fact. Ralph Waldo Emerson

There are always two or three or four sides to every story. Denise Richards

There are two sides to every issue: one side is right and the other is wrong, but the middle is always evil. Ayn Rand

why did you delete my post?

Is this not a thread?

Is this just for you to seem as if you are teaching.. A teacher can answer any question based on the book to which the teacher is teaching.. If the student can prove the teacher wrong, how are you truly a teacher of the truth...

Life is not a 2 edge sword.. The Bible is...

Certainly.the Word is the true two-edge sword, though that was not the point of the statement. My discussions are actually posted on many many websites each day to a very diverse audience. They are not just written out of 15 years of both formal theological and personal study in the Word of God, but a lifetime of living and gaining my own experience with God. That part is not up for debate with you or anyone else. Each day, I hear from dozens of people, saved and unsaved, leaders and members who are inspired, encouraged or otherwise helped by something that I have learned in the more than four decades that I have walked this earth so forgive me if I do not respond to your assertions of what is or is not relevant to you.

My advice to you: work out your own salvation with fear and trembling, walk your own walk, share with those who have ears to hear, and then keep walking. If you have a discussion to share, post it. Peradventure I may stop by one day and reply. The discussions that I post are read by thousands each day, along with my weekly program which is viewed by double-digit thousands each month. I appreciate that you read my posts each day and that you admire my zeal, no matter how misdirected you may believe that I am. As we all have nostrils, we all have opinions. If someone does not agree with all of my statements, I can accept that because they are written for a broad audience.

In the more than four decades that I have walked this earth, God has been faithful to me based upon what I know of Him and what I learn from Him each day. I have no reason to be concerned about that relationship at this stage in my life, I pray that you have the same peace. I will not reply to this statement or debate further on this matter. Thank you.
