called in, called out
Bamabee:
I was thinking about my experience of being called out of the church, yesterday. I do think that God was teaching me the whole time he was allowing me to swallow lies. I think one reason for this is so we can learn to hear his voice and be instructed by his Spirit. At least, I believe that about myself. I definately learned to recognize the alarm bells of the Spirit when I was being taught something wrong. There are so many reasons not to listen to those. Does that make any sense? Maybe Ray covered this, but I have poor recall. I wonder if anyone else feels that way?
Craig:
Absolutely,
When I was in the church those bells were going off in my mind but the whole church/fitting in social experience squelched the sound of these bells so I could just ignore them. Now I hear things loud and clear and have trouble sitting in a church service or listening to it on the TV or radio. I'll never ignore those bells again, God willing.

LOL amen craig, i feel the exact same way, i CANT STAND sitting in church because theres so much i here that is just like 'omg this is so unscriptural.'
but Praise God that He has been merciful and allowed me to hear those warning sounds, hopefuly this ability will only grow stronger as i grow in Christ.
All to His will though,

those bells rang for me when i last attended cornerstone chruch of hagee. it was almost comical to see hagee push the envelop on what he got away within the congregation,,,,calling Jesus a fanatic, envoking spirits of the dead,,, and recently calling Jesus a pharasie,,,
nostalgic memories of xmas gatherings i simply them to family gathers and best as i can excluded the xmas themes out of pictures and such...
Family memebers are more respecting Our Faith and not refering to the holidays, but now generalized them as family gatherings, same horse different name, but we do enjoy the company of our freinds and family on any given day and truly express it to them all.

My husband and I want to do away with Xmas all together this year. Does anyone have any advice about how to approach relatives, so they don't think we are being cheap and they are being slighted. Not that I care about being called cheap - I am cheap.
