Not sure i am convinced because how do you explain the verse an eye for an eye
in the old testament
there have always been consequences for wrong doing and stiill are for sin.If we believe the word then that word is from God not satan.As far as satan is concerned he uses violence as his tools of trade he works on our fears and is limited to robbing stealing and destroying he does nt have
anything else.Violence confirms to us that
there is a spiritual battle going on both on the earthly plane and
in the heavenlys and the battle is over souls.The verse the kingdon of heaven is expanding and violent people take it by force is referring to that spiritual battle and as satan uses violence to expand his dominion so does God use violence to counter him.So what does he mean by that term for me i think it is saying that the the force of evil that satan uses or violence is overcome by a greater violence or force a more powerful one that being the Love of Christ.Through the cross we see that clearly portrayed and
in our
lives that very same battle is still happening right now for dominion be clear if we walk
in the flkesh satan will have dominion over us but if we walk according to the spirit and abide
in Christ we have freedom from our old nature.and satan.He can oppose us but he wont be able to influence us if we are
in Christ.

Tommy God has already forgiven you for your sin the moment you asked Jesus into your
life and confessed him as Lord.From that point he paid for your sin
in full past present future.It is not sin that stops us from being with the Lord so you are saved.The problem you are experiencing is the battle for your
life in the here and now satan is out to destroy you and he knows our weaknesses.If you are honest
there were already issues
in your
life that you struggled with and never got the victory over.So where do you go from here as i found myself
in the same situation i was a christian but walking according to the flesh.God does nt change his mind he always loves us but because of our choices we distance ourselves from God.The issue is that we like sin thats our wicked hearts and to be fair we cant change our nature only Christ can do that our old nature must be crucified with Christ.The stumbling block is our pride we have to admit that we cant do it For me that was terribly difficult i was so independent thinking i could do
anything but the truth was a made a real mess of things.I sense you are at a crossroads and are feeling desperate and confused.So as a brother
in the Lord you need to confess your sin to God and tell him that you are weak -LCB- we all are -RCB- and that you cant do it
in your strength -LCB- None of us can -RCB- but ask him to send the holy spirit to help you deal with the temptations and the sin that you struggle with and he will help you to change your
life he will empower you as he did me.Rather than look at who you are look to Christ and walk
in him and he will make you a new man and sin will not have dominion over you.Jesus came to set us free from bondage.Having once been a slave to sin i know what it is like to have been set free by the power of God and that is what Christ is offering you today.All it takes is a desire to change or repent and admit we cant do it and trust him to give you the strength to walk
in him regards brentnz

Very shortly into the sermon I realized 3 things: 1) although my practice would tolerate any of the people
in the congregation (welcome them even), if they knew
anything about me, I'd be tarred and feathered — and certainly NOT welcome; 2) redemption & heaven were the only reason for good deeds, not simply because strive (
in this lifetime) for compassion and truth; and 3) the guy really believed
there was a place
in the sky made of gold, and that
living there was desirable.

Tim i found it liberating to just do what the Lord wants you to do i work within his boundarys and yes i attend church and enjoy it.I love the people and i love hearing the word and worshipping the Lord even if others are still bound up with traditions thats not my walk thats theres.My focus is to do what the Lord wants me to do.
There have been times i have said no to the pastor he does nt understand why i choose not to lead the worship.i query him as well regarding the idea that its not just performing a function because
there is a need our hearts have to be
in the right place so that the Lord can use us but he did nt understand where i was coming from and thats okay because of that i just said no until my heart is right i am better not being involved
in leading.But i am happy to be an encouragement to others
in the worship team i havent wanted to be the leader i have done that
in the past.So my focus has been just the singing and being part of different worship teams i think the Lord has other plans as the groups i am
in seem to be changing at the same time i am aware that i do nt to worry about change as the Lord knows whats best.I used to be quite comfortable leading the music but that was before when i was operating
in my own self confidence and pride.The Lord did such a huge change
in my
life that i lost my self confidence and that is not a bad thing at all as my spiritual growth has been incredible.The big change was my identity moved from me and what i could do to knowing who i was
in Christ and that he is my strength and confidence.Now i know that without him i can do nothing
in fact i am dependent on his empowerment through his holy spirit all the time
in everything.
In the weekend i was asked to lead the music at another church i attend multiple churchs although i attend two regularly one has services
in the morning and one has services
in the evening so the two do nt really clash.
In the weekend i was asked to lead the music its been two years since i did that and i was worried on how i would go.All i can say is that it went really well and because i stepped out
in Faith the Lord really blessed the morning to the congregation.The difference is knowing that i serve the Lord with the gifts he has given me but my heart has to be right and when i do it
in his way it builds up the body and it brings glory to him.May the Lord continue to show you what he wants you to do even though others may not understand your reasons i just want you to know that you do nt have to pull away completely just work within the boundarys that the Lord gives you and do nt feel pressured by others expectations to do
anything that feel uncomfortable.Be involved just as you feel lead by the holy spirit even if it is
in a very minor way take small steps.regards brentnz
