There are new readers so I do this for them as the older ones know them very well.
I'm not going to build a faith principles page for now, but just give an overview of the main components of my faith.
The Lord Jesus founded His ecclesia not in a religious organization, but in the Spirit, and this means:
"For whoever does the will of my Father who is in heaven, he is my brother and sister and mother."
It is the will of every earthly father that his children obey him, and this is what God the Father expects of us. You won't know what God expects unless you go to the Bible and read the instructions and commandments of Dad that are in the Bible, not in the catechism or the pastor.
The foundation of faith is the Decalogue because the willingness to obey begins with it.
“I will give them a new heart, and a new spirit I will put within them; I will remove from their flesh a heart of stone, and give them a heart of flesh"" Ez
God has given me a fleshy heart with a desire to obey His Law:
I will put My Law inside them and write it on their heart. I will be their God, and they shall be my people" (Jerem. 31:31-33
Order means Law, so I already have a desire to know God's expectations of me. Previously as a Catholic I did not have these expectations because I gave my salvation to Catholic priests trusting them to do good.
Of course, not everything comes at once. The Holy Spirit, in addition to being the Spirit of Truth, is also a gentleman and brings us slowly into all truth.
No one gets an upgrade overnight Law uploaded to their heart.
" And receive the weak in faith, without entering into the judgment of his opinions." Romans 14″
If one is open to the Spirit of Truth then sooner or later that Spirit will lead to ALL truth.
I do not eat pork because it is an unclean animal, it was the vacuum cleaner of cities in Israel's day and any cardiologist will tell a sick person to give up pork. Pork retains sweat and therefore toxins.
It is not important to me who is from what denomination, but whether they keep God's Law and have a love for people that is characterized not only by concern for their salvation but also by respect, courtesy and love.
You will know a Christ-follower by his speech and respect for others. Anyone who insults another person, swears, or has a vicious tongue is not a convert.
I don't have any hobbies that pull me away from God. I don't watch sports, but I moderately play them.
I do not dwell among scoffers and ungodly people (Psalm 1). Except when I manage to evangelize such people.
I read Scripture every day and try to pray every day.
Following Scripture, I believe that there is only ONE mediator between God and men Jesus.
Catholic Marian devotion aside, no pastor or preacher is an authority for me, which doesn't mean I don't respect those people, but I verify their teaching with Scripture and don't have doctrines that are convenient for me.
The complete biblical decalogue:
I am the LORD your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage. (3) You shall have no other gods beside me.
(4) Don't make yourself likeness, carved whatever is in heaven above, and in the earth beneath, and whatever is in the water under the earth. (5)You shall not bow down to them nor serve them, for I the Lord your God am a jealous God, who punishes the guilt of the fathers on the sons to the third and fourth generation of those who hate me. (6) And I show favor to the thousandth generation to those who love me and keep my commandments.
(7)Do not abuse the name of the Lord your God, for the Lord will not leave without punishment the one who abuses his name.
(8) Remember about the sabbath day...to ordain it. (9)Six days you will work and do all your work, (10) But on the seventh day is the sabbath of the LORD your God: Thou shalt not do any work, neither thou, nor thy son, nor thy daughter, nor thy servant, nor thy maidservant, nor thy cattle, nor the stranger that dwelleth within thy gates. (11) For in six days the Lord made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that is in them, and on the seventh day He rested. Therefore the Lord blessed the Sabbath day and consecrated it.
(12)Honor your father and your mother, That your days in the land may be long, Which the Lord your God will give to you.
(13) Don't kill.
(14) Do not commit adultery.
(15) Don't steal.
(16) Do not bear false witness against your neighbor.
(17) Do not covet your neighbor's house, do not covet your neighbor's wife, nor his servant, nor his maidservant, nor his ox, nor his donkey, nor any thing that belongs to your neighbor.
I don't belong to any religion because 100% is in ecumenism with the Church of Rome, and that with Judaism and Muslims. I am not focused on quantity in friends in Christ but quality.
I don't pray to the images I knocked out of my house.
I celebrate the Sabbath like Mary the mother of Jesus:
"And when they returned, they prepared spices and ointments. And on the sabbath they rested according to the commandment."
God's law still applies just as gravity does.
Circumcision has no meaning and uncircumcision has no meaning, but only keeping the commandments of God. 1 Corinthians 7.
Only the sacrificial system changed from lambs to Jesus.
"For the law, having only a shadow of future goods, and not the very image of things, by the same sacrifices, every year continually offered, can never perfect those who draw near. Heb
"For this is the kind of high priest we needed: holy, innocent, undefiled, separated from sinners, exalted above the heavens, (27) one who is not obliged, like other high priests, to offer a daily sacrifice first for his sins and then for the sins of the people. For this he did once and for all, offering himself“
Heb 7
The sacrifice offered in the Roman church has no confirmation in Scripture and is a blasphemy that I have given up on. Jesus' sacrifice was offered once for all.
Every day I try to filter my behavior based on the Bible to refine my mind. When I fall I apologize to God.
When I can I evangelize newly met people in real life.
I believe what I emphasize often, that conspiracies alone do not save. It is Jesus who saves. Conspiracies alone cause a spirit of fear and the illusion of conversion and consequently pride of knowledge and rudeness.
I believe that every follower of Jesus should be baptized, but baptism itself does not give conversion but rather is a symbol of entrusting one's soul to God.
""Who will believe and christened will stay, will be saved, but who won't believe it, will be condemned" (Mark 16.16)"
Noah believed and being obedient built the ark and was saved, that is, saved. The verse in Mark does not say that it is enough to be baptized, but to believe the Word of God and obey it. He who believes will keep the commandments.
"Whoever has my commandments and keeps them, he loves me; and whoever loves me will also be loved by my Father, and I will love him, and reveal myself to him."
Some will feel unsatisfied, but I prepared this text almost on the fly. Maybe soon I will collect more principles from the Scriptures and make a larger article.
"Whoever believes in the Son has eternal life, but whoever does not obey the Son will not see life, but the wrath of God remains on him."
Such a man's blog you read every day or every few days.
May God bless you all and guide you to His Law which is good for us.
A new commandment I give to you, that you love one another as I have loved you; that you also love one another in this way. By this all will know that you are my disciples, if you have love for one another. John 13.
In Mlawa there was an announcement that Koreans are looking for people with vocational training to work without experience. Are there similar ads in Kielce?
Professor veitha will serve on this occasion and recent posts by you Peter. I know that recently his name has appeared in the context of the theory of futurism etc. But here he refutes it, talking also about ecumenism etc. Interesting treatise, which probably everyone has seen in parts, on the revelation of Daniel and John and the little horn and the explanation of terms and times. A good compendium especially for those fleeing Rome. With Jesus
Did I forget to paste ?

Greetings
Thanks for explaining the whys and hows of your views... ?
Then there is a thick line and there are no more errata, additions or extras!!!!
such as Paul's letters or the Revelation of John the presbyter who IS NOT one of the eleven chosen--a beloved disciple of Jesus.
mateusz.pl/mt/js/Jacek-Swiecki/Tam-gdzie-powstawala-Apokalipsa-sw-Jana/13-Intermezzo-kim-jestes-swiety-Janie.htm
"Interestingly enough, the Church for a while adopted this interpretation, for the list of the New Testament books of the synod of Carthage in 397 clearly indicates the distinctiveness of the two Johns and attributes to them the authorship of other books. Nonetheless, this distinctiveness began to be IMPOSSIBLE after a while because it could undermine the apostolic origin of at least some of the Johannine writings."
It is in the revelation of John the presbyter from about the year 96 that the temple with the twelve apostles is mentioned. Everybody wonders who is the 12th .... maybe Paul or maybe John the presbyter.
The answer is simple : we go back to the last will of Jesus given to the eleven
namely, "observe all things that I have handed down to you," and the revelation Jesus did NOT TRANSLATE nor did He foretell it.
Does that mean it's wrong? I don't know. Maybe yes and maybe no.
Nevertheless, Henry K still believes that this is the most important book. Well, that's his faith.
I will tell you that I have met people who are so evil that they would step on your hand with all their might if you were hanging over an abyss holding on to a rock with your hand - and I long to see them burn in hell... I long to see them burn to the ground forever! ! So is this God according to you? (I point out that exactly five years I hung over that precipice and every day and night they came and trampled on my hand, even though I presented most of the mysteries of the Word to them at that time) Is this GOD?!!!
Stephen stoned said
"Father do not count this sin to them. " Acts 7:60
demons may be holding you because of your lack of forgiveness
You're right. When they're not there, I totally don't think that way, I don't think that way. When they are not there - I desire to get on the good path of these people and wish them the best. I can literally feel the "stench" of these demons... After all, they do care that as many people as possible are destroyed just like them... They have woven a very devious plot on me with their hands.
I will only disagree with one thing - the issue of forgiveness - because to forgive means "to forget and not to mention", so how can one "forgive" if everything is repeated over and over again? How do you not mention something that is permanently repeated? Yes, Christ said to forgive even 77 times, but He also said that there is a point when you have to walk away (from others) when there is no chance to change. I think that in my case it is not about forgiveness - because I have already done it many times - but about something deeper, which for obvious reasons I will not write here.
I understand you and I went through the same thing until recently. These are not easy things. It's one thing to read and another to have to relive something over and over again.
I'll tell you from my experience.
First, I forcefully prayed at times for these people that God would show them their sins and that He would save them.
Secondly, I grieved God by saying how much longer this should go on. I don't know a father who would allow his child to be notoriously harassed. But in order for him to act, you must obey him in terms of forgiving and praying for enemies and secondly complaining.
Perhaps you had something to work through also, to learn to love your enemies like Jesus, who in the Garden of Gethsemane after kissing Judas said
And Jesus said to him: Friend, why have you come? Then they came up and rushed at Jesus and seized him.
(Matthew 26:50)
Friend to Betrayer. The character of Jesus is not just theology, it is also the cross.
I don't know if I've helped you Antiquity 🙂
Of course you helped! After all, the Father knows best, for with a situation like this, can't He be preparing me (or you) for what must come in this world...? People of the world think that love is just candy, but it's not, and we can't forget that, and I think it happens to all of us sometimes. Yes, I forget that sometimes.
But can't you cut yourself off from bad people? You write in too general terms for me to imagine the situation. And you must forgive, because you know that if you do not forgive, your sins will not be forgiven either. And so it's a bit of a shame to find yourself in the same cauldron with your persecutors. Think about it.
Greetings!
Yes, I know they would not be forgiven then. That's why I held off on Baptism to mature for it. Salvation is a process that goes on all the time while contained within. Thanks gentlemen for taking your time with me 🙂 I'm looking forward to it.
I can't cut myself off for now... I know they read my words here. I hope they will come to their senses, because life here flies by in a flash, and everyone wants to live. Nobody wants to disappear. That is why we all write about it - for you, not for ourselves.
Yes, the devil always attacks where we have weaknesses, and each of us has some. We are to resist by fulfilling the Gospel. It is not allowed to wish someone bad (even bad people), because we become bad ourselves.
THE ONLY TASK FOR US IS TO HEAR AND OBEY THE GOSPEL. And there we are clear:
"Love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you; so you will be sons of your Father who is in heaven."
And I guess we want to be Children of God?
Even when things don't work out for us, let's remember. As long as we are alive we have a chance to change for the better.
Godspeed Dear Friends!
