Insert Bold Statement Here

I had some free time tonight and a lot on my mind so I thought this would be an ideal time to do some blogging.
I think that God has me read or listen to things that just don't sit right with me so I'll dig deeper into his word. Sometimes Christians can be very quick to point out each other's flaws or get into a debate. I'm not saying I've never done that, but when times like that come I need to check myself (before I wreck myself.) I listen to several lessons and sermons through out the week via Podcast, so I can learn more about the bible and further equip myself for God's use. NOT so I can be arrogant and engage with debates with other Christians or non-Christians who I have no interest in sharing the gospel with.
The point is.. we need to be getting into the word and finding out what God says. Don't pick a couple verses out of context and manipulate God's word into the point you are trying to make. We need to use our online resources and our personal interactions to be sharing the Gospel of Christ, not spreading our own personal opinion.
