We discussed Hebrews 12:1-17 which lead us to consider many things, such as how foolish it is to worry; worry is a lack of faith that God will take care of us. This truth is supported in Matthew 6:27 "Can any one of you by worrying add a single hour to. your life?" or Matthew 6:34 "Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own." and Philippians 4:6 "Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God."
We also discussed the impact of the internet on worship. It is said that the internet is 80% pornography and yet now many, who couldn’t go to church, can now, through the internet, attend the church of their choice or chat with distant family. Most of my family is in Europe and my grandchildren are spread across colleges all over the country but I can talk about world affairs with family and the latest college activities with the kids - which allows opportunities to add faith supporting comments and suggestions to all your distant communications.
Note: Matthew 24:14 "And this gospel of the kingdom will be proclaimed throughout the whole world as a testimony to all nations, and then the end will come."
