You are Ambassadors for Christ. What is an Ambassador-1. A diplomatic official of the highest rank appionted and accredited as representative in residence by one government to another. 2. Any authorized messenger or representative. You are a authorized messenger and representative of heaven and of the highest rank. Isaiah 9:6,7 says "For unto a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder" and "Of the increase of his government and peace there shall be no end, upon the throne of David, and his kingdom, to order it, and to establish it with judgement and justice from henceforth even forever." God wants to use you to represent the government of heaven. God wants his government established in the earth. God wants his will done in the earth as it is in heaven (Matthew 6:10). And you as a representative of heaven has all the power of heaven backing you. An Ambassador always has the weight of his government behind him and when someone comes against him they come against his government. That's what Jesus meant when He said "For verily I say unto you whatsoever ye shall bind on earth shall be bound in heaven: and whatsoever ye shall loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven" (Matthew 18:18).
When an Ambassador travels to a less fortunate country how does he live? He lives as in his homeland. Your life should reflect your homeland. And the scripture says you are citizens of heaven (Philippians 3:20 NKJV). Is there any sickness in heaven, any depression, any lack? No! So there shouldn't be any in your life. God says He has delivered you from the power of darkness and translated you into the kingdom of his dear son (Colossians 1:13). When you were a citizen of the kingdom of darkness he(satan) wanted you sick, depressed, broke, cursed. He wanted his kingdom established in your life. As a citizen of the kingdom of his dear son He(Jesus) wants you healed, joyous, prosperous, blessed. And He wants his kingdom established in your life.
The kingdom of his dear son is a far superior kingdom than the kingdom of darkness. There's no sickness your kingdom can't heal. There's no fear your kingdom can't calm. There's no need your kingdom can't meet. Your kingdom is rich in healing, joy, peace, and prosperity. And the king is ready to dispense his kingdom to his citizens so that you can properly represent your homeland(government). And your life will be a message to the world of how good your king is.
Enjoy your citizenship!

Himself. It is rather obvious to me he is pimping his own writings.
Well said. May God bless you for this very important reminder.
One of the reasons I am very careful to source most of the things I post.
Exactly. I so rarely post articles and I think I have posted only one or two vanity threads in over 9 years. The RF has enough going on, IMO, without pimps.
Also, we expect more 'vanity' posts here since a number of Religion Forum posters are preachers, theologians, teachers, writers, etc.
You’re the boss of the RF, I just hate to see people who sign up to pimp their own writings.
Hey Frank, how about some input on other threads first?
For the record, I am an author, teacher, and church historian and I do not use the RF to pimp my writings. Nor do several others I know who fit into that category.
just sayin’...
Several Freepers regularly post their articles and sermons. One posts his prophecies.
I’ll refrain, thanks.
I like my anonymity.

He is kinda wacko (and unbiblical IMO) as well. But the RF is full of nuts. I amazed you stay sane. ;)

They also reply to other threads, as far as I have seen.
Ok, ok, I’ll drop it, but I still don’t trust this guy.
Noted.
Grammar Rules:
1. Verbs HAS to agree with their subjects.
2. Never use a preposition to end a sentence with. Winston Churchill, corrected on this error once, responded to the young man who corrected him by saying "Young man, that is the kind of impudence up with which I will not put!
3. And don't start a sentence with a conjunction.
4. It is wrong to ever split an infinitive.
5. Avoid cliches like the plague. (They're old hat.)
6. Also, always avoid annoying alliteration.
7. Be more or less specific.
8. Parenthetical remarks (however relevant) are (usually) unnecessary.
9. Also too, never, ever use repetitive redundancies endlessly over and over again
10. No sentence fragments.
11. Contractions aren't always necessary and shouldn't be used to excess so don’t.
12. Foreign words and phrases are not always apropos.
13. Do not be redundant; do not use more words than necessary; it's highly superfluous and can be excessive
14. All generalizations are bad.
15. Comparisons are as bad as cliches.
16. Don't use no double negatives.
17. Avoid excessive use of ampersands & abbrevs., etc.
18. One-word sentences? Eliminate.
19. Analogies in writing are like feathers on a snake (Unless they are as good as gold).
20. The passive voice is to be ignored.
21. Eliminate commas, that are, not necessary. Parenthetical words, however, should be enclosed in commas.
22. Never use a big word when substituting a diminutive one would suffice.
23. Don’t overuse exclamation points!!!
24. Use words correctly, irregardless of how others use them.
25. Understatement is always the absolute best way to put forth earth-shaking ideas
26. Use the apostrophe in it's proper place and omit it when its not needed and use it correctly with words’ that show possession.
27. Don’t use too many quotations. As Ralph Waldo Emerson said, "I hate quotations.. Tell me what you know."
28. If you've heard it once, you've heard it a billion times: Resist hyperbole; not one writer in a million can use it correctly. Besides, hyperbole is always overdone, anyway.
29. Puns are for children, not groan readers.
30. Go around the barn at high noon to avoid colloquialisms.
31. Even IF a mixed metaphor sings, it should be derailed.
32. Who needs rhetorical questions? However, what if there were no rhetorical questions?
33. Exaggeration is a billion times worse than understatement.
34. Avoid "buzz-words"; such integrated transitional scenarios complicate simplistic matters
35. People don’t spell "a lot" correctly alot of the time.
36. Each person should use their possessive pronouns correctly
37. All grammar and spelling rules have exceptions (with a few exceptions)....Morgan’s Law.
38. Proofread carefully to see if you any words out.
39. The dash – a sometimes useful punctuation mark – can often be overused – even though it’s a helpful tool some of the time.
40. Proofread carefully to make sure you don’t repeat repeat any words.
41. In writing, it’s important to remember that dangling sentences.
41. When numbering in a written document, check your numbering system carefully.

LOL. I am keeping that one.
You know, if you are going to post a series of vanities as if you are some kind of theological wizard, I would think you’d run a grammar and spelling check. BTW, did you catch the misspelling on his forum page?
LOL! This is good!
