I stopped acting like a Christian because of moving and I apologize


Posts: 5714

so interestingly enough I moved because it was the right decision to draw me closer to Jesus,  because pride is a trigger to me which is why I moved out of hollywood once I became saved but then I found myself living in a very affluent neighborhood around many prideful and money hungry Christians and this became yet another triggering environment for my pride,  and so Jesus kept reassuring me that moving to a lower income area with more poverty around would draw me closer to Him

 

well I did that,  but humbling thyself sucks and Jesus never said that it was easy to follow in his footsteps and myself being one of the "kicking and screaming rebellious types" of Christians yeah I basically was pouting for like a month  :p

 

Anyway I am back on the Christian path again all praise and glory to Jesus  πŸ˜‡πŸ€πŸ€πŸ€πŸ€πŸ€πŸ€πŸ€πŸ€πŸ€πŸ€πŸ€πŸ€πŸ•ŠπŸ•ŠπŸ•ŠπŸ•ŠπŸ•ŠπŸ•ŠπŸ•ŠπŸ•ŠπŸ•ŠπŸ•ŠπŸ•ŠπŸ•ŠβœοΈ

 

but yeah this was a pretty brutal transition for me

I am like this tiny little nobody these days and becoming less and less a part of "The World"  πŸ€πŸ€πŸ€πŸ€πŸ€πŸ€πŸ€πŸ€πŸ€πŸ€πŸ€πŸ€πŸ•ŠπŸ•ŠπŸ•ŠπŸ•ŠπŸ•ŠπŸ•ŠπŸ•ŠπŸ•ŠπŸ•ŠπŸ•ŠπŸ•ŠπŸ•ŠβœοΈ

 

 

Philippians 2:5-11

5 Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus:

6 Who, being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God:

7 But made himself of no reputation, and took upon him the form of a servant, and was made in the likeness of men:

8 And being found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself, and became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross.

9 Wherefore God also hath highly exalted him, and given him a name which is above every name:

10 That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth;

11 And that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.

I'm very sorry, but I find the idea of moving to impoverish yourself to be closer to Jesus absolutely hilarious. Thank you for the sustenance.

Jesus was homeless and slept outside alone sometimes

 

 

Luke 9:58


β€œAnd Jesus said unto him, Foxes have holes, and birds of the air have nests; but the Son of man hath not where to lay his head.”

 

 have you seen or heard about "The Chosen" ?  It kind of depends what Jesus's life might have been like a lot more closer to scripturslly accurate than the normal "white Jesus" movies

 

 

Mark 10:21


β€œThen Jesus beholding him loved him, and said unto him, One thing thou lackest: go thy way, sell whatsoever thou hast, and give to the poor, and thou shalt have treasure in heaven: and come, take up the cross, and follow me.”

 

 and as far as sustenance goes............

 

John 6:47-58

 

47 Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me hath everlasting life.

48 I am that bread of life.

49 Your fathers did eat manna in the wilderness, and are dead.

50 This is the bread which cometh down from heaven, that a man may eat thereof, and not die.

51 I am the living bread which came down from heaven: if any man eat of this bread, he shall live for ever: and the bread that I will give is my flesh, which I will give for the life of the world.

52 The Jews therefore strove among themselves, saying, How can this man give us his flesh to eat?

53 Then Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Except ye eat the flesh of the Son of man, and drink his blood, ye have no life in you.

54 Whoso eateth my flesh, and drinketh my blood, hath eternal life; and I will raise him up at the last day.

55 For my flesh is meat indeed, and my blood is drink indeed.

56 He that eateth my flesh, and drinketh my blood, dwelleth in me, and I in him.

57 As the living Father hath sent me, and I live by the Father: so he that eateth me, even he shall live by me.

58 This is that bread which came down from heaven: not as your fathers did eat manna, and are dead: he that eateth of this bread shall live for ever.

 

educate thyself on Christianity ?  @cx3
