Re: If your hand causes you to sin...CUT IT OFF
Jesus of course meant that we should remove from our lives anything that causes us to sin. It is a saying in what we might call His manual on discipleship. A disciple is a student. Accepting the call to follow after Jesus as a disciple means to be a student of the Master, Jesus. We have to change ou...

Re: A year of living.
Wayne is one of the bravest men I have come to know. Sharing his journey here on MN as well as social media. Many in his shoes could become miserable and hate the world and all that moves. Instead he chooses to be a light to all those around him. May God add His blessing. John Wayne said: “Courage ...

Re: Can we make MN less hostile?
Is the sword of the spirit the Word (LOGOS) or the Word (RHEMA) of God?.... Oh! mennonitemom1 you thrust a sword well (Proverbs 12:18).

Nurses as far as the eye can see.

I had several business-related phone calls and a nice chat with my day nurse who is a Christian. Another brother called and we had ...

Re: Covid-19 Vaccines and Christian Ethics
I'm posting this here, though I posted the link in my "Year of Living" thread. It saddens me so very much how many "Christians", especially some people on Mennonet, are caught up in the conspiracy theories and contrariness and simple lies and misinformation (and lack of compassi...

Re: A year of living.
There are people that come across your path that can't help but to affect your perception of who God is. I think it comes with a closeness to God that these people are used of Him in such a way. ... I want to echo what Wayne has said about visiting or calling those who are sick. It's amazing what o...
