Yes I deleted my entire blog. I didn't like it. :)
I'm starting to take some responsibility for my confusion in life. Ha, if that makes any sense.
My entire "religion" has been what people have told me. Their interpretation of Scripture. I've relied to heavily upon others, and I am now confused with most of what crosses my path. So I'm going to take some time to read for myself, not just the "reading through the Bible in a Year" stuff. It's more of a study. I'm taking one subject at a time, and sitting down with a concordance and a KJV and NIV bible, and seeing what they have to say about those subjects. In doing this, I hope to figure things out on my own, to believe because "I" believe, not because someone told me to. Yes, I have hit that part of my life where I need to make my "religion" my own. I'm taking responsibility! Woot!
I will use this blog to write about my newfound realizations and discoveries. Take tonight for example, I was reading, and I was thinking about how there are a lot of laws set into place in the Old testament. None of which are followed today, and it would be crazy to. Now I know that those laws were set in place before Christ was crucified and buried, then the rules weren't so much DIE you did this DIIEE! Then a simple realization hit. The Old testament-old rules. New Testament-the new life we have in Christ because of His sacrifice. Simple things like that are cool to me.
More to come.
