Yes you are. Love hearing that. Keep on growing the Kingdom, brother.
And no discussions about theology. Just the simple Gospel. And simple faith and joy.
I could learn something from them.
Love this dermdoc thanks for sharing! I am a recent reborn believer and find myself in a very childlike knowledge of Christ and what he did on the cross, and feel just as your grandkids in a sense. I thirst for Godly wisdom, and more understanding of who Christ is. Sometimes I find myself disappointed in my lack of knowledge when around other strong believers in church or around me (including many on this forum like you and others).
I really enjoy your posts but see a few threads every once in a while of posters "gently arguing" about theology which I think is a great thing for us all to grow. I find myself in alignment with a lot of what you believe, but also side with other posters sometimes too. Can you tell me what you believe? I see Calvinism being thrown around a lot in discussions etc.
Or maybe like you said, that I shouldn't worry about that and your grandkids are a great representation of how we should all be. Simple faith and joy. Believing in the Gospel and what Christ did for us.
I heard R.C. Sproul say one time "I think about the first year I was a Christian I was on fire. I wanted to win every person I met. And I grew more mature, but I also wasn't as zealous and I would say keep pouring that gasoline on that fire." Right now I find myself on fire for Christ. Wanting to tell everyone who He is, what he has done for us. For you and me. And I pray I don't get to the point after years of knowledge where I miss that and focus too much on theological debates about whose right or whose wrong. But keep the simple Gospel, with simple faith and joy about who Christ is and what He's done.
Hope that makes sense!
