What do you believe? Why do you believe it?
Jennie:
Ibelieve Jesus is the son of God and that He came to die for all of our sins because He was the supreme sacrificial Lamb. I had an emptiness in my life.... God was always there... I just didn't recognize it.... ond day I did recognize and the emptiness in my soul was filled. I love it that He forgives me for all of my "bumblings" about. I am so thankful to God that there is no religion involved in my relationship and love for Him... it is all love. I love that God leads me to fellow believers that have recognized that God is and was always there . There are so many reasons and I am not good with quoting scriptures... I just know what I believe..... He died for ALL of us. Much love to ya'll from my cold and snowy mountain, Jennie

Jennie.. I'm not good with quoting scriptures either. You are not alone. :)

It's not as important, to me, to be able to quote the scriptures as it is to have them stamped on your heart and to live them out..that's "where the rubber meets the road"! That's when YOUR LIFE becomes the scriptures and you walk them out!! That is between YOU and God and that's where God uses us to reach out to those in need..God loves others THROUGH us sometimes and that's very good! You guys know how to do that! :D ;)
Now that's not to say that quoting the scriptures isn't good, it is! I have been comforted and blessed by people posting scripture here and to me privately. I want to have them in me so that when I am asked to give an account I will know what to say! :D

Amen to all of that!!!
It's much more important to LIVE the Scriptures, than it is to give Chapter & Verse.... besides, that's what eSword is for. :D

LiberatedEagle:
At this point in my walk I'm unable to quote chapter and verse as well. One thing I do know for sure though, if I continue to heed Timothy's advice by studying to show myself approved and David's example by continue to meditate on His word every day, I'll become the word. No longer I, but Christ that lives in me. This thread reminds me how important it is to study that I may be ready to give an answer and one day be able to quote chapter and verse. Pretty much just re-iterating everything Ninny said :D
In His Grace,
Charles
