Genesis 18 and 19 According to the blog PeopleSkillsDecoded.com, a savior complex is defined as “A psychological construct which makes a person feel the need to save other people. This person has a strong tendency to seek people who desperately need help and to assist them, often sacrificing their own needs for these people.” I’m an older sibling so I’ve […]
I occasionally take questions on my Instagram stories here: The Basic Christian This question came from a subscriber: “Is being a good person good enough in God’s eyes, we all sin but is that enough in his eyes?” When we start to decide what is good or bad we must apply this thought process to everyone. Logically anyone can determine […]
Please join me on my Youtube channel here: @TheBasicChristian for weekly videos as we progress in our reading. And if you’re finding this after the listed dates, I have created a playlist for you on my channel! Let’s dig into this book and talk about a Dangerous Jesus!
If I’m honest, I don’t trust God enough. I tend to trust what I see, more than what I know. We have to train ourselves to have faith. It’s like a muscle the more you exercise your faith muscle, the larger it grows and the more capacity it can handle. Sometimes we know exactly what God has called us to […]
We’ve all been there, so angry you see red and it feels like you’ve swallowed fire. Anger is difficult to control when you don’t know what your limits are. The more we work on walking in love the easier anger management becomes. When we learn to immediately forgive, we can begin to take power over our emotions. So when Jesus […]
Are you a loner or a people person? There are three types of people in the world people who love company, people who love being alone, and people who enjoy both. Jesus loved both! He loved people so much he spent most of his time healing and teaching, but he also was intentional about being alone, staying away from crowds, […]
Be ye angry, and sin not: let not the sun go down upon your wrath: Ephesians 4:26 How could Jesus react in anger and still be sinless? Jesus drove out people who were selling goods, animals, and doves in the temple. The dove is a sign of the Holy Spirit (see details here). Merchants were attempting to sell God’s presence […]
Knowing every layer of you is a privledge not a right. After six days Jesus took with him Peter, James and John the brother of James, and led them up a high mountain by themselves. There he was transfigured before them. His face shone like the sun, and his clothes became as white as the light. Just then there appeared before them […]
Asking for help does not make you weak, it makes you human The saying “God will never give you more than you can bear” is not true, in fact, it’s far from the truth. God will almost always give us more than we can bear because it causes us to lean on him and each other. We were created for […]
Then Jesus was led by the Spirit into the wilderness to be tempted by the devil. Matthew 4:1-11 I don’t know about you but if I had the choice, I would absolutely choose to skip an appointment with the devil himself. The important word in this scripture is that Jesus was “led” into the Wilderness. He didn’t decide to go […]
