Why do we sleep in church but...when the service is over we suddenly wake up? Why is it so hard to talk about God but so easy to talk about sex? Why are we so bored when we look at a Christian magazine....but find it easy to read Playboy?.... Why is it so easy to ignore a Godly myspace message...yet we repost the nasty ones? Why are churches getting smaller...but bars and clubs are growing??.... Think about it...are you going to repost this or ignore it because you think you'll get laughed at? Just remember God is always watching you.
The Lord said, "Deny me now, and i will deny you in front of my father”

1.Sleeping in church-We aren't alive and Spirit renewed so the things of God lead us to drift away in our head and the body follows along then...zzzz. Show up and do the drill or folks will wonder about your "christian" reputation.
2. God talk vs. sex talk-We believe the lie of Satan that God wants to keep us from having fun sex. Satan whispers that sex between a man and wife is not the best possible way and loves to see us wander into the thorn patch for whatever catches our eyes.
3.Christian reading vs. porn- cheap, selfish substitute for our personal jollies vs. something to help strengthen our souls, families, churches and communities.
4.Godly talk vs. web gossip and trash-We take private thrills thinking no one will know while it chills our souls down a bit more each time.
5.Churches vs. bars-Hurt and lonely people need to go somewhere to find friends and if no church is open to them as they are then the bars are. Sort of the diff. of a hungry man eating out of a dumpster when he doesn't feel good enough to go home or to a restaurant.
Pastor has been preaching lately out of Rev. 2-the seven letters and today was the one to Sardis. Hit me direct in the heart. Thanks Midnightshiner, God is still stirring me and trying to make me wake up to face what I am in His sight. I can go through the motions of church life and look fine but I still have some ugly pieces He needs to take hold of and reshape however He wants.

I think satan makes it easier to do the bad thing. Sometimes it takes work to do what is right but the end result is well worth it

thats a god thing to think about and go deep into though about, midnite shiner. all you said was true, and it is easier to talk about that kind of stuff than God, but its not always the better thing to talk and think about!!
happy huntin-kellie
