    I admire your simple, down to earth and faithful life. No spoiling kids with video games and electronic gadgets. Basic, pure childhood like I had 60 yrs ago. books, trees, outdoors wild and free, wood everywhere in the home...beautiful staircase brings nature indoors. This edifies children to connect with the order in nature, given by God. Playing devotional music as a family. Best lifestyle, ever!

    Its so sad that these children have never gotten to spend untold amounts of time playing video games and being on social media and watching funny cartoons with subliminal adult content and worst of all they are having a learn about Jesus and His Salvation and the idea of living forever… how on earth will these kids ever survive without knowing how to fight and play video games and watch anime??? It’s just a shame that they are running free in the fresh air and then they have family worship…. So different from the rest of the world…. Wait…. Maybe I’m the one that is mistaken and maybe I’m wrong but I’m pretty sure that the problem with this world begins with a toddler being plopped down in front of a screen and are kept quiet by the entertainment set before them and their brain patterns are completely manipulated by the video/tv screen and then they are programmed into needing to be stimulated from their tv screen…. Today’s kids have been destroyed by social media and there’s no going back. They couldn’t care less about music or playing an instrument bcuz it’s easier to just watch a screen and eat junk food and soda while they’re medicated into behavior compliance

    The relationship with God IS A RELIGION, no matter how much some people try to avoid it. If you check a dictionary, religion means a set of beliefs about God, a way of worship, a worldview, teachings, rules, principles to live by etc. Those who follow the teachings of Christ are called Christians.

    Well, I agree with you, but in reality, that's not different than saying "I'm a Baptist or a Presbyterian, etc" because choosing no denomination IS a choice, and all those who choose that certainly don't believe the same or follow Christ the same way. If you're honest, you just develop your own set of values, sense of right and wrong, the way you pray and "practice" your relationship with God. So essentially, you are a "denomination." 😉

    @Little Mary You speak some truth. But why do you call anyone paster same as the Catholics call them father? Call no man "Pastor" Mat 23:9 - And call no man your father (G3962-patēr) upon the earth: for one is your Father, (G3962-patēr) which is in heaven. Strong's G3962 - patēr πατήρ The word pastor comes from the Greek word pater' It is found in the following verse. Matthew 23:8-12 " “But you, do not be called ‘Rabbi,ʼ for One is your Teacher, the Messiah, and you are all brothers. " " “And do not call anyone on earth your 👉father(G3962-patēr)👈, for One is your Father(G3962-patēr), He who is in the heavens. " " “Neither be called leaders, for One is your Leader, the Messiah. " “But the greatest among you shall be your servant. " “And whoever exalts himself shall be humbled, and whoever humbles himself shall be exalted. " Now if we check out what the Strong's definition has to say about this word we can see possibly why Messiah instructed us to NOT proclaim this word upon anyone in regards to being our ______! Strong's: G3962 - patēr G3962 - πατήρ (metaphysical: .... one who has infused his own spirit into others, who actuates and governs their minds) Esentially it is christianities way of deceiving the people into doing as the Catholics do and have their assembly members call their leader their father/pater/pastor and unknowingly submit their spiritual authority to him!

    @@1hverniz Good works should follow salvation and what believers already saved by faith alone in Christ alone are appointed unto having the Holy Spirit taking up residence. Consequence of a salvation already received and in no way a cause or contributing factor. The justification and guarantee of eternal life takes place before any subsequent good works are carried out. They are a matter of reasonable service, part of progressive practical sanctification (not positional) and which rewards at the Bema seat will be based upon. It's not both faith and works that save the sinner but faith in what Jesus has perfectly done on their behalf through His death, burial and resurrection. We receive the Lord Jesus first, then walk in Him thereafter.

    @@1hverniz Still a consequence rather than a cause or fruit rather than the root. Faith without works accompanying is dead in terms of any witnessing impact and just won't make any favorable impression or commend Christ to others, especially those in need and likely to turn them off. That's what the verse is really saying. I'm not saying by any stretch that good works aren't important and should naturally flow without a second thought by those whose hearts have been touched by Grace and made new in Christ. It's just that they don't come into the equation as far as receipt of salvation is concerned. Not seeking an argument either but to give clarity and right division so the Gospel is not confused and obfuscated. Much blessing to you.

But as an Ashkenazi Jew myself, I will say that whatever believe you have is fine so long as it does not involved maligning anybody in the process. I'm not religious myself however I will say that God really doesn't give a shit what anybody believes. All God wants (at least according to our Jewish tradition) is that you be a good and charitable person.

Jesus Christ is the way the truth and the life and no one goes to the Father except through him...because none are good but God so no one can approach him but through Christ only. That’s the truth God gave freely, and rejecting the truth only destroys the soul. We can’t approach God without Christ but God can surely approach us and when he does it’ll be judgment day and you don’t want to be approached by God naked without Christ.

It is one of my favorite hymns and I had never heard it in a female voice. So when I seen the image on the video showing a lady, I wanted to listen and I am very grateful I did. Your voices together are very Spirit lifting. When the music video ended, it carried on into this video and I found myself listening to the description of your faith and beliefs and thinking to myself, that is it! You put into words a clear understanding of what I too believe faith is and is not. Thank you for sharing your experiences online for others to hear and learn from. I am hoping to figure out how to view your videos from the beginning, so my wife and I can follow them together as I know, it will help her in her understanding that there is a difference in living a faith in Christ's teachings and following traditions of a religion.
