Let's step out of the trenches for a moment and refresh with these words from a peaceful leader. Christian, Jew & Muslim alike need to heed these words...

Galatians 2:16

Yet we know that a person is not justified by works of the law but through faith in Jesus Christ, so we also have believed in Christ Jesus, in order to be justified by faith in Christ and not by works of the law, because by works of the law no one will be justified.

"Conan! What is best in life!"

"To crush your enemies. See them driven before you, and hear the lamentations of their women."

A new command I give you: Love one another. As I have loved you, so you must love one another. By this all men will know that you are my disciples, if you love one another.

- John 13:34-35

Be courteous, kind, and forgiving. 
Be gentle and peaceful each day. 
Be warm and human and grateful, 
And have a good thing to say. 

Be thoughtful and trustful and childlike, 
Be witty and happy and wise. 
Be honest and love all your neighbors, 
Be obsequious, purple and clairvoyant. 

Be sure to stop at stop signs, 
And drive fifty-five miles an hour. 
Pick up hitchhikers foaming at the mouth, 
And when you get home get a master's degree in geology. 

Be pompous, obese, and eat cactus. 
Be dull and boring and omniprescent. 
Criticize things you don't know about. 
Be oblong and have your knees removed. 

(Ladies only) Never make love to Bigfoot. 
(Men only) Hello, my name is Bigfoot. 
(Everyone) Put a live chicken in your underwear. 
Go into a closet and suck eggs. 

--Steve Martin, Grandmother's Song

And make sure to have all the attachments.

Isn't it love to share the truth?

Galatians 2:16 Yet we know that a person is not justified by works of the law but through faith in Jesus Christ, so we also have believed in Christ Jesus, in order to be justified by faith in Christ and not by works of the law, because by works of the law no one will be justified.

I'm a sister and if you are with me than you would agree with these;

Acts 4:12 12Salvation is found in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given to men by which we must be saved."

1 Corinthians 15:2

2By this gospel you are saved, if you hold firmly to the word I preached to you. Otherwise, you have believed in vain.

Isaiah 45:22

22 "Turn to me and be saved, all you ends of the earth; for I am God, and there is no other.

Romans 10:13

13for, "Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved."

Amen sister!

For other foundation can no man lay than that is laid, which is Jesus Christ.

~I Cor. 3:11

Verax, your post has food for thought . . .

Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things.

~Phil. 4:8

Except for #4, "luck" is for the weak in faith.

Wonderful instructions on living life to its fullest. Of course #19 stands out to me but #17 describes my true feelings!
