when ur down and troubled
and u have no place to go
when friends and famoly
have closed the doors
u just gotta call out His name, and
u will smile once again
Love u Jesus
always will
till my dying day
So true...when all u ever gave everything to runs away from ya, only God will be by you...only HE will listen to ur troubles...even though some may think He does not exist, just try talking to Him...when everything around you seems surreal, when everyone close to you seem to be just an illusion of time, talk to Him...you will feel instant peace and love...because He exists and only He will give you the peace that you wont get from others. Remember guys that even if ur life is a big mess, everything happens for a reason...maybe you have to learn or people around you need to learn from your destiny...

Love is but a song to sing
Fear's the way we die
You can make the mountains ring
Or make the angels cry
Though the bird is on the wing
And you may not know why
Come on people now
Smile on your brother
Everybody get together
Try to love one another
Right now
Some may come and some may go
We shall surely pass
When the one that left us here
Returns for us at last
We are but a moment's sunlight
Fading in the grass
Come on people now
Smile on your brother
Everybody get together
Try to love one another
Right now
Come on people now
Smile on your brother
Everybody get together
Try to love one another
Right now
Come on people now
Smile on your brother
Everybody get together
Try to love one another
Right now
If you hear the song I sing
You will understand (listen!)
You hold the key to love and fear
All in your trembling hand
Just one key unlocks them both
It's there at you command
Come on people now
Smile on your brother
Everybody get together
Try to love one another
Right now
Come on people now
Smile on your brother
Everybody get together
Try to love one another
Right now
Come on people now
Smile on your brother
Everybody get together
Try to love one another
Right now
Right now ... Right now.....

One of the things that has always bothered me was the way Jesus supposedly treated the Pharisees. On one hand, he taught us how we should treat our enemies (we should love them, do good to them, pray for them, etc.) yet it is recorded that he treated the Pharisees like shit (this word used for emphasis). Wasn't this a bit hypocritical? In addition, it appears the Pharisees really believed they were staying true to God and his word. In fact, the way they reacted to Jesus' bold statements about the law and traditions is no different than the way a fundamentalist would react to reading this post. Hell, I used the word "shit."
In the days I believed that the Bible was the wholly inspired Word of God, without contradiction and without error, there was no way for me to reconcile what I considered a great hypocrisy. This point was one of the core issues I had that sparked me to question and search for answers beyond what I believed.
I've since come to the conclusion that the gospel authors, writing many years after Jesus, inserted their prejudice against the Pharisees in their account of Jesus' words and actions. I know this is a "slippery slope" as some would put it, and they are right. However, my other choice was to believe that Jesus was a hypocrite and I chose to believe this was not the case.
Faith is a choice. We choose what it is we believe. One cannot for certain say any of this is true. However, we do have a choice of what we believe. Many choose to believe contradictions like this and simply use cliches to explain it away. There came a point in my life that I could no longer do this. In other words, my conclusion is just one possibility, but I believe it carries the same weight as any other conclusion one may come to. It all has to be accepted by faith.
Matthew 5:38-42
"You have heard that the law of Moses says, `If an eye is injured, injure the eye of the person who did it. If a tooth gets knocked out, knock out the tooth of the person who did it.' But I say, don't resist an evil person! If you are slapped on the right cheek, turn the other, too. If you are ordered to court and your shirt is taken from you, give your coat, too. If a soldier demands that you carry his gear for a mile, carry it two miles. Give to those who ask, and don't turn away from those who want to borrow.
Matthew 5:43-47
"You have heard that the law of Moses says, `Love your neighbor' and hate your enemy. But I say, love your enemies! Pray for those who persecute you! In that way, you will be acting as true children of your Father in heaven. For he gives his sunlight to both the evil and the good, and he sends rain on the just and on the unjust, too. If you love only those who love you, what good is that? Even corrupt tax collectors do that much. If you are kind only to your friends, how are you different from anyone else? Even pagans do that.
Matthew 7:12
"Do for others what you would like them to do for you. This is a summary of all that is taught in the law and the prophets.
