Sermon on the Mount

Matthew 5:43-48

In this section of the sermon on the mount Jesus is talking about loving your enemies, He wants us to love our neighbor as our self.  He talks about how you would want to be treated and how this is the most important rule that he gives us.  Everyone in life has the people that they clash with but what is right and what God wants us to do is to Love them more than anything!

This is a terribly hard thing to do but it is what is right!

Halloween

I understand how Halloween started and now i understand how we took Christmas and do the exact same thing to almost every other holiday.. but i don't think we should not do it.. all this talk about Halloween and wigi-boards and talking to the devil i definitely don't agree with it but that doesn't mean you have to sit and home and do nothing.. dressing up is what we have made the fun part of it and craving pumpkins.. i don't see any harm in this at all.. although it is a "mish-mash of Christian and Pagan traditions" i think you don't have to use it in that wayy.. though, i do it almost every year and the Strong Christians i know do it also.. but everyone is entitled to there own opinion.. its just what i think :)
