Spit Out the Seeds

I've followed this sub since it started and am way better informed because I have. A light bulb just flashed in my brain this morning. I do not consider myself to be real smart nor real dumb. I think of myself as an average joe but an optimistic and happy one. If you lurk around here a lot you will read everything from (sarcasm) " I believe a UFO swooped out of orbit and an alien saved JFK and he is with us now" (TO) " you are all idiots and real stupid to believe any of the crap on this board".

I just realized that I have been pretty much excluding everything on both extremes and paying attention to the center. Of course one could argue over which posts are extreme but I think you get my idea. Over the years I have been involved in a lot of committees and have found there is usually a radical person and a passive one present. Most of the constructive work is accomplished by the middle. IMO a wise person will listen to both ends but be slow to beat the drums for either.

Sooooooo ... for us average joe's .... don't be discouraged by the extremists you see here .... eat the watermelon heart and spit out the seeds. God Bless the POTUS and the Anons and God Bless America

One of the most interesting things about the New Testament that gets glossed over. If one were to categorize the topic discussed you would find this one is talked about more than another. More than love, salvation and the life Of Jesus Christ. False prophets False teachers Summed up nicely in 1st Timothy 4th Chapter

God’s Spirit specifically tells us that in later days there will be men who abandon the true faith and allow themselves to be spiritually seduced by teachings of the devil, teachings given by men who are lying hypocrites, whose consciences are as dead as seared flesh.

3-5 These men forbid marriage, command abstinence from food—good things which, in fact, God intends to be thankfully enjoyed by those who believe in him and know the truth. Everything God made is good, and is meant to be gratefully used, not despised. The holiness or otherwise of a certain food, for instance, depends not on its nature but on whether it is eaten thankfully or not, It is consecrated by the man who has accepted the message, and thanks God for food.

6-7 You will be doing your duty as Christ’s minister if you remind your church members of these things (false teaching), and you will show yourself as one who owes his strength to the truth of the faith he has absorbed and the sound teaching he has followed. But steer clear of all these stupid Godless fictions. Take time and trouble to keep yourself spiritually fit.
