Fellow Brothers and Sisters in Christ- what has God taught you thru your experience here?

For example - one thing He has taught me is the real meaning of 'casting pearls'. He has taught me that I need to be discerning with regard to what questions I respond to and which ones I ignore. He calls me to stay away from silly arguments that bring Him no glory and to always allow His Holy Spirit to influence my answers so that His truth and love are revealed. What has He revealed to you?

    He has shown me that I need to try harder at explaining things as sometimes things can be taken in the wrong way. He has shown me that love suffers long. And that there are some really gifted people in this world. He has shown me that some people just like to ask foolish question that I have no business trying to be apologetic about. He has shown me that no matter how much we want to save others they will not be won unless the Holy Spirit convicts them. It is not my job to convict it is my job to be understanding and helpful when I can. you never know with all the answers we answer if someone else will be touched by what we have to say. Also never give up or in to the pressure put upon Christians because we have a higher standard to answer to that one day all will answer too. Thanks for the question friend. God bless.

    Love the question

    What this site has taught me is that there is so much ignorance about the Bible and Jesus.

    I like to see the word of love overcome the hate of some and every time any real believer testifies in some way or uses the Word a seed is planted.

    Our job is to carry the Word not give an increase.

    Being in this den of wolves has prepared me in amazing ways to have an answer for every possible kind of question we face in real life.

    Remembering of course, that we are called to give our testimonies as witnesses - I don't need to act as God's lawyer - he's very capable without me. That gives me the grace to say 'I don't know' if the question is about something I have not experienced first hand.

    The inner darkness of their hearts is exposed here in a way we could never see in person. It's dangerous territory. We have to be very, very gentle and kind to lead them out. If I know they are belligerent I lovingly confront them with the very words of God that hopefully will lead them to repentance. Even if that means putting the fear of God into them - I am not doing it out of malice. I desperately want them to wake up from their stupor.

    I learned how mean and hateful unbelievers are. I stopped coming here for a long time, but I still come by every once in a while to share the truth about God's love and plan for our lives.

    That persecution is on the rise. We must also be led by the spirit, and good idea to pray for your computer and yourself before getting in here. Don't trust anyone, they all let you down sooner or later.

    The Lord shown me how blind I once was. I was so blind and hateful as many of the non-believers(not all) show here.
