#biblical correction

The church must recover the fear of the Lord. Too many believers complain about correction, holiness, order, accountability, and righteous instruction as though these things are burdens. But in Scripture, these are not burdens. They are gifts from God. Israel made this mistake after the Exodus. God delivered them from Egypt, broke Pharaoh’s power, opened the Red Sea, fed them in the wilderness,…

Today’s Verse of Providence is Matthew 16:23, and it brings us into one of the sharpest moments between Jesus and Peter. The scene is not merely about Peter being wrong. It is about what happens when influence, affection, and human reasoning become misaligned with the will of God. “Get behind me, Satan!” The Tension Peter had just confessed that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of the living God.…

The Gift Hidden in Rebuke DID YOU KNOW Did you know that God often uses correction not to tear you down, but to rebuild you stronger? It is never easy to be corrected. Something within us recoils when our faults are exposed. Scripture acknowledges this tension, especially in passages like Deuteronomy 28, where blessings and curses are laid side by side as outcomes of obedience and disobedience.…

A Love That Corrects Revelation 3:19“Those whom I love I rebuke and discipline. So be earnest and repent.” (Revelation 3:19, NIV) Evening Meditation As this day draws to a close, we hear a hard but loving word from the Risen Christ. Spoken to the lukewarm church in Laodicea, Revelation 3:19 is both a confrontation and a comfort. “Those whom I love I rebuke and discipline. So be earnest and…

The English words disciple and discipline are linguistically related terms, revealing an important connection between the two concepts.[1] A disciple refers to one who is devoted to learning from another, with a commitment to practice their teachings and example. On the other hand, discipline involves the process of mastering what has been learned, with the goal of internalizing the teachings to…

No public warnings must be posted on the Internet or on other social media until the intent and love of Scriptural correction is fulfilled. Disputes in the body of Christ must be resolved first in the household of God according to principles set out in…

In this age of technology when we get hurt it is easy to go to Facebook, or other social media to voice our feelings. For many of us having mercy or asking: Am I correct in feeling this way?can become an afterthought. Scripture reminds us to examine…

So today in science class, an extremely religious boy did a presentation about Charles Darwin and his Theory of Evolution.  His presentation had the facts, nothing about thinking Professor Darwin was the devil (like some christians I have met), nothing like that.  But after the powerpoint was over, he said plainly: "I disagree with this though."  The teacher nodded, as having a religious opinion is allowed in canada.  But then, I had this massive fucking brainwave and raised my hand.

Me: So, we all know that God created the universe in seven days, and we also know that to God, a million years is a minute.  So, what if Him creating the universe actually took millions of years, but to Him it felt like only a minute, and from then on He described it to us as only being seven days, but it was actually millions and billions of years?  And so, in those "seven days" all the animals, including ourselves, had time to evolve and become animals we know today?  And what if, the people who are saying Earth is only a few thousand years old, are misinterpriting it wrong? And what if the humans at the time (who knew nothing of science or evolution, God having created the animals and plants and such millions of years before them) just accepted this and moved on? And What if-

Thats about where I got cut off by my christian friend who was growing increasingly angry, and was shouting and screaming at me, and who was asked to leave the room.  And later on,Iwas called to the office and questioned about what had happened, and the principal stated my behaviour was unacceptable.
