Mighty to save

Everyone needs compassion

Love that’s never failing

Let mercy fall on me

Everyone needs forgiveness

The kindness of a Saviour

The hope of nations



Saviour

He can move the mountains

My God is mighty to save

He is mighty to save

Forever

Author of salvation

He rose and conquered the grave

Jesus conquered the grave



So take me as You find me

All my fears and failures

Fill my life again

I give my life to follow

Everything I believe in

Now I surrender



Shine Your light and

Let the whole world see

We’re singing

For the glory of the risen King

Jesus

Favoritism Forbidden
 1My brothers, as believers in our glorious Lord Jesus Christ, don't show favoritism. 2Suppose a man comes into your meeting wearing a gold ring and fine clothes, and a poor man in shabby clothes also comes in. 3If you show special attention to the man wearing fine clothes and say, "Here's a good seat for you," but say to the poor man, "You stand there" or "Sit on the floor by my feet," 4have you not discriminated among yourselves and become judges with evil thoughts?

 5Listen, my dear brothers: Has not God chosen those who are poor in the eyes of the world to be rich in faith and to inherit the kingdom he promised those who love him? 6But you have insulted the poor. Is it not the rich who are exploiting you? Are they not the ones who are dragging you into court? 7Are they not the ones who are slandering the noble name of him to whom you belong?

 8If you really keep the royal law found in Scripture, "Love your neighbor as yourself,"a]" style="font-size: 0.75em; line-height: 0.5em; ">[a] you are doing right. 9But if you show favoritism, you sin and are convicted by the law as lawbreakers.10For whoever keeps the whole law and yet stumbles at just one point is guilty of breaking all of it. 11For he who said, "Do not commit adultery,"b]" style="font-size: 0.75em; line-height: 0.5em; ">[b] also said, "Do not murder."c]" style="font-size: 0.75em; line-height: 0.5em; ">[c] If you do not commit adultery but do commit murder, you have become a lawbreaker.

 12Speak and act as those who are going to be judged by the law that gives freedom, 13because judgment without mercy will be shown to anyone who has not been merciful. Mercy triumphs over judgment!


i super like dis part of the bible. lols since Jacob say, if i wan to blog i go to my own blog to blogged and not the cell blog so i blog it here lo. I am free to say what i want here also. i feel that within my cell, some prominent people do show strong favoritism thou. lols. But i afraid to say human is imperfect, more or less within us we will bound to show some favoritism,.but some of it is rather obvious. well, if you guys fr my cell do read this post, don't come and ask me who is it or question me about it, instead why not all of us reflect upon this point and see if its really true, such as people we choose to bring into church, we try to reach out more to this kind and not that kind of people cause i don't like this kind and so on. Isn't what i mention the truth and pretty much happen in church now. i think for the next few post. i will b opening it up for discussion. hopefully people can share with me be it you are a christian or not. just share your thought. i will open some topic for discussion. today 3 June the topic will be on favoritism. what is your idea on it. Do people in church or in work place have favoritism as describe such as Leader-Member Exchange Theory. Does it even happen in school. cya guys, i am too tired, tomorrow i have an interview at 11am.. bye
