Eternity

Hello Everybody,




Today I will post about Eternity. Don't you want to live forever. Of course everybody does. But the only way to live forever is to go to Heaven with Jesus Christ. The only way to go to Heaven to Jesus Christ is to believe what he did for you. And most people don't really take time to think about that. Most people think in their heads " I'll go to Heaven, I go to church, I pray". But that''s not all it takes. You have to give your life over to Jesus Christ and let him control your life and let him take you wherever he planned your life to go. You have to read your bible. Because I do it because I think of what he did for everyone. He was nailed to a cross and suffered and paid a price for us! If someone walked over to you and said " Hey, you know that person over there?" and you said " Yeah" and the person said " They did something bad and we want to forgive them do you think you could get nailed to a cross instead of that person?". Most people would say "No, if you want to forgive them you go get nailed to the cross!". But not Jesus, he was actually the opposite. Jesus' love for everybody is unconditional. And he died for people that were there then and he died for us now. Now you have to have a whole bunch of love for somebody to get nailed to a cross for generations and generations and generations and generations to come so they all don't have to die on a cross. If you take the time to think about that it's crazy. And if you have any more questions about this I would be delighted to answer them for you,just comment.

Easter

Hello Everybody,


Its Lauren. Today I will be posting about Easter even though we're in February. Easter celebrates the resurrection of Jesus Christ. Like Christmas, Some people think that Easter is about Easter baskets, " The Easter Bunny" and gifts and food and all of that stuff.It is fun and sounds fun. But that is not what it is about! It's celebrating Jesus' resurrection and going into Heaven. Not everybody believes that but, I do. And I totally believe that you should also.

CHRISTMAS

Hello Everyone,



Its Lauren. In seven days we will be celebrating Christmas Day which is Jesus's birthday so that is why I am going to post about on my bible blog. Most people think Christmas is all about Santa Claus, Gifts, Food, etc,etc, but they never think of it of what it really is. Christmas is supposed to be about spending time with family and friends and giving to others and most of all Jesus. But that is not how it is supposed to work. Its Jesus's birthday and you should celebrate that! I don't care if you have a birthday party for Jesus and go all out on Christmas with balloons and banners. You should really celebrate that also because Christmas is not about Santa Claus and that is what most people think about. Yea gifts are nice to get everyone wants to get a gift but most people just are so greedy. There are many many MANY kids out there who are gonna wake up on Christmas morning and have nothing to rip open under there Christmas tree to play with and get excited about, so perhaps go and give toys and participate in Toys For Tots, Operation Christmas Child, Be an Elf, Adopt A Letter, Operation Santa Claus. Just make meals and bring them to some of your local shelters. And If Anyone has any questions about these certain organazations or any questions about Christmas just comment and I will be more then happy to answer you! Happy Holidays!

Hello Everyone,


Today's post will be on the story of the Shadrach,Meshach and Abednego from the bible.-King Nebuchadnezzer made a gold statue 90 feet tall and 9 feet wide*and set it up on the plain of Dura in the provine of Babylon. Then he sent messages to the high officers,officials,governors,advisers,treasurers,judges,magistrates,and all the provincial officials to come to the dedication of the statue he had set up.So all these officials*came and stood before the statue King Nebuchadnezzer had set up.Then a herald shouted out,"People of all races and nations and languages,listen to the kings command!When you hear the sound of the horn,flute,zither,lyre,harp,pipes and other musical instruments,*bow to the ground to worship King Nebuchadnezzer's gold statue.Anyone who refuses to obey will be immediately thrown into a blazing furnace".



So at the sounds of the musical instruments,*all the people,whatever their race or nation of language ,bowed to the ground and worshiped the gold statue that King Nebuchadnezzer had set up.But some of the astrologers*went to the king and informed on the Jews.They said to King Nebuchadnezzer,Long Live The King! You issued a decree requiring all the people to bow down and worship the gold statue when they hear the sound of the horn,flute,zither,lyre,harp,pipes and other musical instruments.That decree also states that those who refuse to obey must be thrown in to a blazing furnace.But there are some Jews-Shadrach Meshach and Abednego-whom you have put in charge of the province of Babylon.They pay no attention to you,Your Majesty.They refuse to serve your gods and and do not worship the gold statue you have set up".Then Nebuchadnezzer flew into a rage and ordered that Shadrach,Meshach and Abednego be brought before him.When they were brought in,Nebuchadnezzer said to them,"Is it true Shadrach,Meshach and Abednego,that you refuse to serve my gods or to worship the gold statue i have set up?I will give you one more chance to bow down and worship the statue i have made when you hear the sounds of musical instruments.*But if you refuse, you will be thrown immediately into the blazing furnace.And then what god will be able to rescue you from my power?



Shadrach Meshach and Abednego replied, "O Nebuchadnezzer, we do not need to defend ourselves before you.If we are thrown into the blazing furnace,The God whom we serve is able to save us.He will rescue us from your power,Your Majesty.But even if he doesn't,we want to make it clear to you,Your Majesty,that we will never worship your gods or worship the gold statue you have set up.Nebuchadnezzer was so furious with Shadrach,Meshach and Abednego that his face became distorted with rage.He commanded that the furnace be heated seven times hotter than usual.Then he ordered some of the strongest men of his army to bind Shadrach,Meshach and Abednego and throw them into the blazing furnace.So they tied them up and threw them into the furnace,fully dressed,in their pants,turbans,robes and other garments.



And because the king,in his anger,had demanded such a hot fire in the furnace,the flames killed the soldiers as they threw the three men in.So Shadrach,Meshach and Abednego,securely tied,fell into the roaring flames.But suddenly,Nebuchadnezzer jumped up in amazement and exclaimed to his advisers,"Didn't we tie up three men and throw them into the furnace?Yes,Your Majesty,we certainly did,"they replied.


Look! Nebuchadnezzer shouted."I see four men,unbounded,walking around in the fire unharmed.And the fourth one looks like a god*"!Then Nebuchadnezzer came as close as he could to the door of the flaming furnace and shouted " Shadrach Meshach and Abednego servants of the Most High God, come out! come here!

So Shadrach,Meshach and Abednego stepped out of the fire .Then the high officers,officials,governors,and advisers crowded around them and saw that the fire had not touched them.Not a hair on their heads was singed,and their clothing was not scorched.They didn't even smell of smoke! Then Nebuchadnezzer said,"Praise to the god of Shadrach,Meshach and Abednego! He sent his angel to rescue his servants who trusted in him.They defied the king's command and were willing to die rather than serve or worship and god except their own God.Therefore, I make this decree: If any people,whatever their race or nation or language,speak a word against the God of Shadrach Meshach and Abednego,they will be torn limb from limb,and their houses will be turned into heaps of rubble.There is no other god who can rescue like this!Then the king promoted Shadrach,Meshach and Abednego to even higher positions in Babylon.
