Monks Fighting...Is this christ- Like?

..im hoping your answer is no....The church in Jerusalem's Old City, one of the most revered sites in Christianity, is home to six different Christian sects who frequently fight over the rights to maintain and worship in different sections of its hallowed halls.

This time, the fight followed an Armenian procession marking the fourth-century discovery of a cross believed to have been used in Jesus's crucifixion.

Greek Orthodox monks had apparently wanted to post a monk inside the Edicule, a structure built on what is believed to be Jesus's tomb, and blocked the procession when the Armenian clergymen refused.

Riot police broke up the fight and arrested a bearded Armenian monk and a Greek Orthodox monk bleeding from a gash on his forehead.

...this story is kind of reminiscent of a something I said a couple blogs down "religion is whack, Christ is Truth" whenever it becomes more about religion and the politics of religion than the love of Jesus Christ there is a problem... I may not understand the implications on every part of this subject but it seems as if they are fighting over a wooden cross that was believe to be the same cross that Jesus was crucified on. I'm pretty sure that the wood has long since degraded an turned to dirt in the past 2000 years, so instead of fighting for wood, lets fight for the truth we have come to know in Christ and what that wooden cross truly stands for...

Are we in agreement?

REligiOn Is wHack, CHRIST IS TRUTH (click here)

see...religion is man trying to bond to God or show himself worthy of Gods presence...if you observe all religion that are not chrisitianity you notice this trend but the GOD of the bible seeks man beacuse of his love ...though we are sinful and turn away he pursues us even sent his son (probably herd this all before but listen..) JESUS CHRIST to die for the sins of the universe and all time...beacuse without the shedding of blood there is no remission of sins..SEE THAT god is seeking to help man, to claim those that are his, to give us a chance....that is why Christ is truth through the ministry and truth of jesus you see the stark difffrence of christianity and othe religions...by the way JESUS did not like the religious either so most of those that are religion bashers agree with the saviour of the world more than they know...dont beleive me, read about the pharisee's in the bible and what he thought of them

see some of yall get my point...Christ came so that we may know him yes many have died for the faith we are here to enjoy but that is beacuse they were GOD FEARING People who KNEW GOD, who fellowshipped with HIM not for religious reasons or to show others they are holy or what not but beacuse they trly loved the lord...look at paul, wasnt he very religious before he took that trip....he was persecuting christians(who died for their faith) in the name of our GOD beacuse of religion not beacuse he truly knew the GOD we serve but when CHRIST revealed himself to him......that is when he changed that is when he had faith...that is when religion was taken away from his mind and regeneration in CHRIST JESUS replaced it..

Bible Study #1: Peer Pressure(cuz its like a jungle sometimes)

This bible study is all about peer pressure and how by the grace of god we can efficiently eliminate its influence over our lives. Now I know some of yall think your to cool for peer pressure or that you are to devout to be swayed by it your probably wearing something right now that is the cause of peer pressure. None the less a lot of our heroes in the bible were almost overtaken by peer pressure but beacuse of faith fought through to give us an example to live by. For example look at our homie Job this guy suffered everything I can imagine would take ones faith away he lost wealth, house, possesions, family, health, and friends yet he still pushed on. see theres something that my pastor always says "whose report are you going to believe? Gods or the devils?" Thats exactly what it all boils down to in the end, no matter what the world says just know that god says you are healed, filled, and will prosper. See thats exactly what Job did even though his boys froom his area told him to curse god and that god has left him, he remembered GOD's report and strived until the end until his trial he was going through was over he will surely be blessed.
So as some of youth complain about the neverending battle to resist the peer pressure to do drugs(which will kill you), violence(which will kill you), premarital sex, dating(for some of us), and all the obvious things a believer should not be doing think of our homie Job.
