#stumblingblock

A stumbling block can be anything that distracts us from achieving righteous goals. We cannot afford to have our testimonies of the Father and the Son become confused and complicated by stumbling blocks.⠀ —Quentin L. Cook⠀ ⠀ #sharegoodness #distract #goals #stumblingblock #testimony

A #stumblingblock for many #christians. They believe you dont have to obey #GodsLaw and are free to live based on your thoughts feelings and opinions. #smh doers of the law are justified before God not those who 'do not' & just yell #Lord Lord.

When we fill up with “our pride”, we can’t see the beauty in the world only the travesties ahead. Pride builds self respect when we accomplish what we want for our lives. We have pride when we look back at all the wonderful things we did for others, and for ourselves.

Question: Should a Christian use things like video games: can entertainment like video games cause an increase in violent behaviour and isn't entertainment a waste of time for Christians? "The Christian says, 'Creatures are not born with desires unless satisfaction for those desires exists. A baby feels hunger: well, there is such a thing as food. A duckling wants to swim: well, there is such a thing as water. Men feel sexual desire: well, there is such a thing as sex. If I find in myself a desire which no experience in this world can satisfy, the most probable explanation is that I was made for another world. If none of my earthly pleasures satisfy it, that does not prove that the universe is a fraud. Probably earthly pleasures were never meant to satisfy it, but only to arouse it, to suggest the real thing. If that is so, I must take care, on the one hand, never to despise, or to be unthankful for, these earthly blessings, and on the other, never to mistake them for the something else of which they are only a kind of copy, or echo, or mirage. I must keep alive in myself the desire for my true country, which I shall not find till after death; I must never let it get snowed under or turned aside; I must make it the main object of life to press on to that country and to help others to do the same." C.S. Lewis, Mere Christianity The Holy Bible: John 6:44 English Standard Version (ESV) Jesus, "No one can come to me unless the Father who sent me draws him. And I will raise him up on the last day." (It was the only thing C.S. Lewis seemed not to understand or was speaking metaphorically in this quote as the desire for God is put there in us by God, not us and he draws us near and he will eventually lead us to Jesus Christ.) Romans 14 English Standard Version (ESV) "14 As for the one who is weak in faith, welcome him, but not to quarrel over opinions. 2 One person believes he may eat anything, while the weak person eats only vegetables. 3 Let not the one who eats despise the one who abstains, and let not the one who abstains pass judgment on the one who eats, for God has welcomed him." #videogames #violence #waste #entertainment #stumblingblock https://www.instagram.com/p/BuRtAb9hTuY/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1059lylyoao45
