@Justhangin60067@ShortStopMedia I knew everyone on that plane personally. Show a little respect. The guy flying had been doing it for years, was well trained, owned several planes and flew all around the country. So please don’t make judgments about a situation you know nothing about. Thank you.
Hello, Moon. It’s great to be back.
Here’s a taste of what the Artemis II astronauts photographed during their flight around the Moon. Check out more photos from the mission: https://t.co/rzM1P0QbOl
@KnowingFaithPod@jt_english Thought the 2 episodes about posting the 10 commandments publicly were great. One thought I had was how Jesus would have viewed this. Jesus advocates for a greater understanding of the law (internal not just external) and He distills into just two, Love God, Love your neighbor.
THE LADDER VS THE CHAIR
One of the ways I like to explain salvation is with the difference between a ladder and a chair.
Too many people think getting right with God is like climbing a ladder — do more good, try harder, be better, get more committed and maybe you’ll make it to the top.
As a matter of fact EVERY world religion has a ladder approach to their view of salvation. You work your way to heaven by climbing various rungs to God.
Every religion has the same ladder approach, but with different rungs (7 sacraments of Catholicism, 8 fold path of Buddhism, 10 Commandments of Judaism, 5 pillars of Islam, etc.)
And, sadly, many Protestants have developed their own ladder approach to God as well (turn, try, cry, commit, surrender, get baptized, etc.)
But the RUNG approach is the WRONG approach.
Only true Christianity recognizes this. Only true Christianity views salvation as a chair and not a ladder.
You don’t try to climb a chair. You simply sit in it and trust it to hold you.
In the same way, we can’t earn our salvation (climb the ladder to heaven), we simply rest on what Jesus did for us on the cross. We transfer our trust from our own efforts to his finished work on the cross and, then, we are saved! He gives us eternal life as a free gift through simple faith in Christ and then he begins the transformation process in us.
The Bible makes this clear:
📖 “For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith—and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God— not by works, so that no one can boast.” Ephesians 2:8–9
📖 “he saved us, not because of righteous things we had done, but because of his mercy. He saved us through the washing of rebirth and renewal by the Holy Spirit…” Titus 3:5
The ladder says: achieve.
Jesus says: believe.
Stop trying to climb your way to God. Put your full weight on Christ and rest on what He’s already done on your behalf on the cross.
This is the good news of the Gospel. This is the message we must share!!!

@J5_Sports1 Intelligent people don’t normally refer to other people as stupid. But as a stupid Texas Tech fan, I am willing to have what ever conversation you’d like friend.
@Juicy_J_713 Touchy, touchy. Just showing a little love to BYU. Sort of an overreaction to little ole Texas Tech don’t you think? We don’t have the brand Notre Dame has, that’s for sure. We’ve got a long way to go.
