"Who except God can give you peace? Has the world ever been able to satisfy the heart?"
-- St. Gerard Majella
I just re-read 2 of my previous posts and I realized something... I need to ask myself what is Christianity? Not who is Christianity? Or what have people representing Christianity done? Or where has Christianity come from? But what IS Christianity?
-Is it the teachings of the followers of Christ? I don't know, but this is what the formation of the word should represent, I would think.
-So what are the teachings of Christ? I read most of the Bible as a little girl, but I think it is time to re-visit it to check it out with "new eyes".
-What does Christianity have to do with Christians today? What do I believe that agrees with Jesus/Biblical teachings? I know that right after some of my "world religion" journey realizations, the first thing that would come to mind would be a greater understanding of a certain Bible verse.
Okay, I'll be working on these.
Praise Him, all creatures here below;
Praise Him above, ye Heavenly Host;
Praise Father, Son, and Holy Ghost. Amen."
"As one who a mother comforts, so will I comfort you... then shall ye suck. ye shall be borne upon her sides and be dandled upon her knees." Isaiah 66: 13a,12b
"Whoso is simple, let him turn in hither..." Proverbs 9:4a
