Basic, pure childhood like I had 60 yrs ago. books, trees, outdoors wild and free, wood everywhere in the home...beautiful staircase brings nature indoors.

Its so sad that these children have never gotten to spend untold amounts of time playing video games and being on social media and watching funny cartoons with subliminal adult content and worst of all they are having a learn about Jesus and His Salvation and the idea of living forever… how on earth will these kids ever survive without knowing how to fight and play video games and watch anime??? It’s just a shame that they are running free in the fresh air and then they have family worship…. So different from the rest of the world…. Wait…. Maybe I’m the one that is mistaken and maybe I’m wrong but I’m pretty sure that the problem with this world begins with a toddler being plopped down in front of a screen and are kept quiet by the entertainment set before them and their brain patterns are completely manipulated by the video/tv screen and then they are programmed into needing to be stimulated from their tv screen…. Today’s kids have been destroyed by social media and there’s no going back. They couldn’t care less about music or playing an instrument bcuz it’s easier to just watch a screen and eat junk food and soda while they’re medicated into behavior compliance

@Little Mary You speak some truth. But why do you call anyone paster same as the Catholics call them father? Call no man "Pastor" Mat 23:9 - And call no man your father (G3962-patēr) upon the earth: for one is your Father, (G3962-patēr) which is in heaven. Strong's G3962 - patēr πατήρ The word pastor comes from the Greek word pater' It is found in the following verse. Matthew 23:8-12 " “But you, do not be called ‘Rabbi,ʼ for One is your Teacher, the Messiah, and you are all brothers. " " “And do not call anyone on earth your 👉father(G3962-patēr)👈, for One is your Father(G3962-patēr), He who is in the heavens. " " “Neither be called leaders, for One is your Leader, the Messiah. " “But the greatest among you shall be your servant. " “And whoever exalts himself shall be humbled, and whoever humbles himself shall be exalted. " Now if we check out what the Strong's definition has to say about this word we can see possibly why Messiah instructed us to NOT proclaim this word upon anyone in regards to being our ______! Strong's: G3962 - patēr G3962 - πατήρ (metaphysical: .... one who has infused his own spirit into others, who actuates and governs their minds) Esentially it is christianities way of deceiving the people into doing as the Catholics do and have their assembly members call their leader their father/pater/pastor and unknowingly submit their spiritual authority to him!

Jesus Christ is the way the truth and the life and no one goes to the Father except through him...because none are good but God so no one can approach him but through Christ only. That’s the truth God gave freely, and rejecting the truth only destroys the soul. We can’t approach God without Christ but God can surely approach us and when he does it’ll be judgment day and you don’t want to be approached by God naked without Christ.

Your humility is beautiful. Thank you for putting all these good, even if somewhat older, worship songs out there. It seems that most modern "worship" songs are centered around the believer's experience and "blessings" to be had while these songs refocus is on God's glory and power and sovereignty. Also, they are easy to sing along to aand join in the worship. I cannot tell you how refreshing and uplifting that is. Much love from South Africa. 💖

@@Angie-hi5bt Dear friend in Christ, as a Christian I wouldn't speak like that of my brothers in Christ whichever denomination they belong to. I'm a Catholic Italian man and I don't think we are the synagogue of devil! Christ's Church is the living Body of Jesus and God's people all over the world regardless of the various denominations or confessions. "That they all may be one" (John 17: 21), this is the not yet fulfilled prayer of our Lord Jesus to the Father. I'd feel ashamed to judge so bad my Christian brothers belonging to other Churches or confessions: it would be like judging God's will that we are one Church in His beloved Son! I use to hear the inspired songs of this wonderful Christian family and I give thanks to the Almighty God for them and for their bright testimony for Jesus! I have no interest in their confessional belonging: for me they are brothers in Christ who give a beautiful testimony for Him, and that is all!. Their songs (a lot of them are very popular in our communities too) gladden my spirit and let me worship the Majesty of God and the incredible greatness of His love manifested towards us in Jesus our Lord! In many of them I find splendid verses and words of the Bible I use to read and to pray every day. Glory to our Lord Jesus Christ who gives us His Holy Spirit and frees us from our prejudice, hostility and makes us one people in him:" For he himself is our peace, who has made the two groups one and has destroyed the barrier, the dividing wall of hostility ..." (Ephesians 2: 14). God bless you all!

@@1hverniz Good works should follow salvation and what believers already saved by faith alone in Christ alone are appointed unto having the Holy Spirit taking up residence. Consequence of a salvation already received and in no way a cause or contributing factor. The justification and guarantee of eternal life takes place before any subsequent good works are carried out. They are a matter of reasonable service, part of progressive practical sanctification (not positional) and which rewards at the Bema seat will be based upon. It's not both faith and works that save the sinner but faith in what Jesus has perfectly done on their behalf through His death, burial and resurrection.

@@1hverniz Still a consequence rather than a cause or fruit rather than the root. Faith without works accompanying is dead in terms of any witnessing impact and just won't make any favorable impression or commend Christ to others, especially those in need and likely to turn them off. That's what the verse is really saying. I'm not saying by any stretch that good works aren't important and should naturally flow without a second thought by those whose hearts have been touched by Grace and made new in Christ. It's just that they don't come into the equation as far as receipt of salvation is concerned. Not seeking an argument either but to give clarity and right division so the Gospel is not confused and obfuscated. Much blessing to you.

The point your missing is that to be a Christian just means to be "Christ-like". This couple is very 'Christ-like". If you don't want to be identified with the "church", then understand, we can not be disconnected from the Head of the Church which is Jesus. Therefore, we are to be Christ-like, or Christian, by orientation and never be ashamed of the Gospel or the people (the Church) that are being Christ-like. So, calling yourself a Christian, is not a religion. God is the only God that sought us out. He came to us. He took on our sins and forgave us. Creating small groups and isolation has never helped anyone. It becomes, many times, nostic and self-righteous and they think they are the 'only' ones that are in control of reality. My family was Amish. But it's like my grandfader said, years ago, when he left the Amish with his entire family, to become a preacher and 'share' Christ with others (the Amish can not do this)..."You can leave the Amish in two ways, either through death or through life, and, I left through life and once I read an actual Bible from cover to cover, I found Jesus! I was baptized in Jesus Name and through "The Great Commission" I went out and shared the Love Jesus asked me to share in His Holy Name, giving Glory to the Son so that the Father may be proud of us both." I have photos of my grandfader baptizing men and women in the White River in Indy. My grandmother became a preacher as well, sharing Jesus with everyone she met; if just with a smile! Once you find the love and forgiveness of the one true Jesus, you will never be ashamed of your Faith. It's too real, honest, lovely, kind, and passionate, to be ashamed of it. I am Christ-like. I am a sinner, fogiven. I am living in the 'end of days' and yet in the time of Jubilee! I am a Christian and I am not ashamed to say so. I am a minister, carrying on my grandparents legacy around the globe. Today, we baptize in a pool or a local lake. But we still make hospital visits and home visits, just as my grandparents did in their day. Our children, there are 8, share the Gospel around the world, and mostly in refugee camps in Turkey, Greece, Egypt, and such...we have 8 grandbabes...most conceived in the Middle East. We go where most missionaries are afraid to go. We've been robbed, told to leave countries, escorted off tarmacs under fire, and even shared beds with our born enemies who came to Christ only days before! I've seen my grandchildren warm up a brain-washed Islamic child to hold their hands and playing ball a few hours later, releasing that child from fear of Christians/Westerners, whom they are taught to hate/kill. I've witnessed first hand, the light in an eye that Jesus brings, once the ignorance of hate-led grouping, has left their minds. It's a revelation to each individual. It's their own path to take with God. It's a peace they say they have never felt before. "You just know," they will say, talking about knowing who Jesus is to them now. They become so truthful within, that they are willing to DIE to say they know Jesus, to be able to freely say, "they are Christian". They would say to you now, "Don't be ashamed of being a Christian (or an Apostate=Muslim turned Christian, now an infidel). They risk EVERYTHING they have to share the Gospel with other Muslims. That risk to death factor, becomes so great, it takes much courage to say it in public. The Discipled were martyred for their rights to believe and share...and to be called Christians. So, don't throw these martyrs, under the bus by denying Christ and being called a Christian. Amen?! They died then and ppl are dying today, across the nations, sharing Jesus, so that you can share Christ as a "Christian' as well. Here is one testamony that you may want to hear to help you understand Christian term better, "Kamal Saleem .. A Muslim Cries Out to Jesus" on CBN online. I think it will open the eyes of those who want to understand the goals of destruction of other groups...and how Christ moved them into a new direction...just as my grandfader was moved. Just as I and many others were moved. Blessings. Dr Janie Pendleton. If you want to learn more, my channel, "Our Little Homestead" shares the 'science' that backs the Bible; mathematics and nuclear Fusion, if you want to go even deeper and learn about the Truth behind Fractals behind an Infinite Mind that is transmuted into a finite reality/Creation that we view all around us. We teach that DNA=Informational Code = the Spoken Word (Jesus) is the glue that holds us all together. The yearning to learn the answers that most ministers can not or won't answer, where they say, "Just have faith" is a farce. As scientists, we know today's ministers are not trained in the science of Creation. We teach ministers and others that science. Best wishes.

By the way, Muslims like most religions have NO PROBLEM calling us Christians or Jewish Peoples, Jews! Why? It's a cultural Jihad they are taught to wage war upon..."their 'hand' will 'glow' in front of the throne of Allah"..if they have killed one of us, they are taught this, to kill anyone not like them. Why would satan do this? To stifle the Truth of the Love of Jesus. Satan knows in the end, many Jews will come to Christ in the end of days. Revelation covers this fact. Satan and his demons are aged old. They know who was who and they do know the names of those 'marked' by the Blood of the Lamb (Christians). When they hear us cry out and find out God answers us...they start asking questions. They call upon the Father Abraham...the Father of Jacob...and they call out to God...and get their answers. He fills the rooms with Glory. They see this. "Who are you Lord," they ask. "I am the Alpha and Omega and I know you, rise up! You are MY warrior, not their warrior!" Giving your life to Jesus, is questioning your allegience to Satan. Freedom is in God. Freedom is not free! Christians experience, NOTHING TO LOSE. We know our ends are now a peaceful eternity with God the Father. Once a Muslim realizes this, they too will LIVE for Jesus, not "DIE" for the cause unless they are killed at the hands of those who praise Satan's works/world. It's no longer doing God a favor to kill others, but it's a blessing to save them for eternity. All peoples get the promise.

Simplicity of the heart! I may sound a tad confrontational. But grace unto Salvation isn't about what we wear. How we look. Paul said, not circumcision of the outward appearance. But the circumcision of the inner heart! Christ was humble, yes! But Christ never told his 12 disciples they needed to change attire. Matthew as a tax collector. Peter as a fisherman. Each had different clothing! To be clothed with the Righteousness of God! To be clothes with the Armour of God! I grew up in a denomination that dictated our attire. Yet. The lacked in fruit of the Spirit. The Old Testament Cleary shows that David was a shepard, Shepards clothing. But David was also a king. Wearing Kingly clothing! Finally, Modesty is a must pertaining to our adoption in Christ! It's not about wearing a business suit or wearing plain clothing! That's a work!
