Why Can't We Do What We Are Supposed To??

For my last year of high school I don't have much I have to do. But one thing my Mom is making me finish is Polished Cornerstones by Pam Forster. A couple of years ago, there is NO WAY I would have sit down and done this work, let alone enjoyed it. I would have just set at the table til I frustrated my Mom so much that she would just tell me to go away and not have to do it. Man, that is really hard to write and read. Ouch... I wish I could go back and kick myself to wake up and be who I am supposed to. Guess you live and learn.
Anyway, we are working on the first chapter now, and it is all about becoming "A Godly Woman". I have gone over so much scripture on this topic. I has really been great to read it all. One of the verses I have been reading is one I think we all know and love:

Titus 2:3-5
"The aged woman likewise, that they be in behavior as becometh holiness, not false accusers, not given to much wine, teachers of good things.
That they may teach the younger women to be sober, to love their husbands, to love their children.
To be discreet, chaste, keepers at home, good, obedient to their own husbands, that the Word of God be not blasphemed."

    And as I was reading reading it over and over, I was starting to get angry. Not at the verse itself, but because that is NOT how the "aged women" are.
    They do not teach the younger women, well at least not the right things. And the younger women do not want to be taught.
    The "aged women" nowadays are too worried at belonging to clubs, going shopping, making sure they look young by their clothes, and their hair and makeup and tans, and nails and blah blah blah. They care more about if they have a more expense car than the neighbor and what people think of them. They care about their social status.
    If they would forego those things we would have young women who knew how to love and train their children, to love and submit to their own husbands, to be keepers at home, to be chaste, obedient, etc.
    We would probably have more married couples who would have stayed together, if they "aged women" taught the young wives she was supposed to submit and love her own husband in all things. Most couples now get divorced in the first 5 years of marriage. Is that sad or what??
    By the way, I love that: "obedient to their own husbands". Did you catch that word, "own"?? They are not supposed to be obedient to any man, just their own. Which if she is working she can't do that, huh??
    My Mom and I were just talking the other day about how I won't have the excuse, "I didn't know any better. No one taught me." that she has. She was in tears as she told me how when she got saved her pastor, his wife, nor anyone else taught her what the Bible says. They didn't teach her that she should not play softball when she has 2 little children to care for. She paid dearly for that sin. She broke her leg very badly. God always shows us what we need to change and tho it may be painful, we must do it.
    They didn't teach her that she should love and submit to her husband completely. So now after having many hardships and troubles, she is just learning this. Altho it is sad that she wasn't taught and helped when she should have been, I can rejoice in the fact that she now knows all this and can teach it to me, so I can do what I am supposed to and not have the same troubles and hardships she has had.
    I am praying for all the "aged women" that they come to realize that they are not following the Biblical mandate that they should be filling and that they fill it. We need the "aged women" to teach us younger women. How will we learn unless someone teaches us?? How can we teach unless we are taught to??
    To all of the older women I know, I pray for you daily. That you may have the opportunities to teach the younger women and that you will do it.
    To all the younger woman I know, I pray for you daily. That you may have a teachable spirit and learn something from the "aged women".
    I am thankful I have a Mom, who will take the time to teach me not only academics, but character training and much more. I am thankful to all the Mom blogs I read because I glean something from your experiences. I am thankful for all the "aged women", I know and have come to love that are setting a good example for me.
    Whether your experiences are good or bad, just know that there are young women who will learn from them.
    We need to get back to doing what we are supposed to that God has mandated us for.
As Always,

There is a Problem here...

Published on July 18, 2007 at 4:44 PM

This Article was published in What the Bible means to me-a 17 year old Girl on her way to becoming a Woman of God

There has been a controversy going on here on HSB. My little sis, gave a blogger a not-so-very-nice review and that blogger blogged about it. She had tried to get the review removed before anyone saw it, but she wasn't quick enough. (If she had asked me, well, we all know I could do it "faster than a speeding bullet".) My sister confessed she left the review and publicly apologized for giving it. Her review was correct, but not written in a loving manner. She wanted to warn people from going to his blog, because he does not blog the truth and many bloggers feel he is leading many "teens" astray because teens like him and his blog so much.

Chris, who was the blogger who received the bad review, posted his beliefs awhile back. There are MANY bloggers, young adults and adults alike who totally disagree with what he believes. And we all just wanted Chris to know we like him as a person, but we don't like his blog and don't want people going to it because of his beliefs.

Paulie has even blogged about this. He did a wonderful job of bringing in the Word to this while ordeal.

I thought I would write Chris a comment, and I didn't want to take over his comment section, so I just decided to post it on my blog and share why Chris's beliefs DO NOT line up with the Word of God.

This is what Chris believes:

I believe that Christianity as a religion, is deeply corrupt and flawed.

I believe that being gay is not a sin, but that being a practicing gay is a sin.

It shows symbols from many different forms of worship including Islam, Judaism, Shinto, and Christianity. It is a symbol popularized by U2. It is a call for members of all creeds to live together in peace and harmony. In other words, to "Coexist". I believe one day this will happen, and I plan to do my part to make it happen.

Chris, I think you are a nice person, but being a nice person doesn't make you right nor your beliefs right either. There are many things wrong with your beliefs. I know you are not going to change your mind by what I, Paulie, Jocelyn, or anyone else say, but I am charged as a Believer of the Word to share the gospel with all who do not know. And by what you have said you believe, it leads me to believe that you do not know what the Word says. "Go into all the world and preach the gospel to every creature." (Mark 15:15)

I want you, Chris, to give me some references as to why you believe what you believe. So far you have just stated your opinions. You know what they say about those... EVERYONE has one. You have given no Biblical proof as to why you believe what you believe. I know you just want us all to "coexist" with our beliefs, but the Bible says otherwise. Here is what the Bible says about your beliefs.

You said that Christianity is flawed. I agree to some extent. Christianity today as a religion IS flawed, and most of it hypocritical. We have gotten far away from what the early Christianity believers believed. But if you believe on Jesus Christ and that he saved you from going to hell, then what religion would you call that, if you believe that Christianity is flawed?? You cannot want to have a religion that is flawed. That would go against the verse, "Be diligent to present yourself approved to God, a worker who does not need to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth." (2 Tim. 2:15)

And do you mean that Christianity as it was back in the Apostle Paul's day is flawed?? Flawed from the start??

You cannot only believe the parts of the Bible you want. You have to believe in it as a whole. You cannot take out what parts you agree with and leave the rest ‘cause you don't like what it says. If you believe in the Bible, you believe in the WHOLE Bible. "You shall not add to the word which I have given you, nor take from it, that you may keep the commandments of the Lord your God which I commanded you." (Deut. 4:2)

If you believe the Bible to be true, then you believe that it is SIN for a man to be with a man. "You shall not lie with a male as with a woman. It is an abomination" (Lev. 18:22) Or even to lust after another man. The Bible says "Whoever looks at a woman to lust for her he has already committed adultery in his heart with her." (Matt. 5:28). So if a man looks at a man to lust for him, but doesn't do anything, then he has already committed sin with that person. So you don't have to practice gay activities to be gay. Gay is gay. Bottom line. You cannot be gay and not be gay. There is no way.

If you believe in the Bible, then you must believe that only through Jesus Christ can you be saved. There is no other way. "Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ and you and your household shall be saved." (Acts 16:31)

Religions cannot "coexist". It is NOT possible. Islam won't coexist with ant other religion. They believe that if you are not Islamic they are to kill you.
Religions cannot coexist. "There will be false teachings among you, who secretly bring in destructive heresies, even denying the Lord Jesus who bought them and bring on themselves swift destruction." (2 Pet. 2:1b)

If you do not believe the above, then you DO NOT believe the Bible. Everything I have said is taken from the Bible. They are not my opinions.

I would not encourage anyone to go to Chris's blog. His beliefs DO NOT line up the the Word of God. I would hate to see anymore people lead astray because he is the "hsb hub for teens", and many of those "teens", thinks he knows what he is talking about.
We are called to be set apart from the world, not be in it. It is a long, hard, and lonely road, but it is one we called to follow. Choose wisely what road you will be taking. It starts now as a "teen", not when you become an adult.

I choose the long, hard, lonely road of believing ONLY the Bible, not my opinions. "Enter by the narrow gate; for wide is the gate and broad is the way that leads to destruction, and there many who go in by it. Because narrow is the gate and difficult is the way which leads to life, and there are few who find it." (Matt. 8:13-14)

"Strive to enter through the narrow gate, for many, I say to you, will seek to enter and will not be able" (Luke 13:24)

As Always...

What I Believe

I am a Biblical Believer and don’t conform to the denominations of today’s world. I am a non-fiction Believer. That means that God has already written my life story and I don’t want to change it by doing what I want, but follow it perfectly by His Word and Guidance. I will follow that plan alone. I will not make my own plans, but follow where He leads me.
I have a personal relationship with Jesus Christ and love Him as my Savior. I want to live wholly for Him and give my everything to Him.
I believe in Jesus Christ. That He is the Only Son of God. That He is the Way, the Truth and the Life. No one can come to the Father unless through Jesus Christ.
I believe Jesus Christ was beaten, crucified, and rose again in three days. I believe that He died for my sins, and washed them away. I believe that He is coming back for his people some day soon.
I believe that a marriage consists of a MAN and a WOMAN. I believe that the husband should be the head of the household and that all decisions lie ultimately with him. I believe that a woman should be a keeper of her home. I believe she does not need to get a job outside of her home and out of the authority of her husband.
I believe in a full quiver, and that God will give me the desires of my heart. I believe that the woman should stay home and raise her children in the LORD.
I am praying and waiting for God to bring the man of my dreams. I can’t wait to get married and have my own family. I am excited that I can be a stay at home mom and keep my home. I want to be a Homemaker and make my home to be a haven for my family to learn to be Biblical and Godly.
I hope to be an encouragement and teach Biblical things to all who stop by my blog and be encouraged and learn from others.
