Why Tim Tebow is great

[bangsportscards]

Yeah beware of idols. You can use cards as a means to lift someone up. If that's your goal, then there isn't guilt.

God can use anyone to build a complete wise system of sharing sports cards.

As you may know and with lots of things, people easily turn to cards as an escape. Being in place and prepared with the right words makes all the difference.

If this thread has taught be anything, it's that

CLEARLY GOD HATES CLEVELAND.

See Brian as Christians we always turn it around to our advantage,if we do wrong we are forgiven,if we do wrong for a good cause it is accepted.I'll tell you this though,this thread is going to explode when more members read it.I just choose to seperate scf from my beliefs,as if people are going to find faith it is not going to be on a sportscard forum.

And the CUBS.

Leaving Jesus out the equation is a wrong approach!

God's mercy allows us to deal with cards.

It's your motives that count.

You can start relationships here and care for others who really may need it. You are somewhat limited but there's a way to make it happen.

I have turned to cards as a way out when all else was confusing and pressure filled!

There's always hope of a sports team winning a championship. When is not known as there's always a first all the time.

Not if you're a Cleveland fan.

As members can attest by the amount of freebies,and the contests I have my heart is in the right place,but I'm not going to reveal my beliefs and try to bring them out on scf,as in the past it has led to one too many confrontations.I use to put quotes from the bible in my signature,but once a member called me out for writing something unChristlike I stopped.I appreciate your willingness to profess your faith,but for me being a moderator it became more trouble than it was worth.

I think you are misrepresenting Christians and what the religion is truly about. God cares nothing about materials and vanity yet you claim God will reward Tebow with a trophy and a title? That's exactly what living your life for God is NOT about. Like the $95,000 Jaguar convertible with the license plate "revrnd". Some people are real Christians and others like to make up their own rules as they go. So far you're not doing yourself any favors.

For the record I do not believe in God. I was raised Catholic and married into a large, strict Christian family. I return money when find it, I stop to help people change tires in the rain. I do this because its what I decided to do. When people tell me they are better than me because they have a relationship with God I call BS.

Yeah I hear you Steve.

People will watch what you do.

It pays to stay the course best as possible. It's good to hear you talking about the Lord!

And if anything be humble, admit a mistake, and quickly move on. We are forgiven and guilt removed immediately by the Spirit. Others may not be able to understand the things of God and at the same time steer away from explaining yourself away too much.

The best scenerio is your own testimony and with faith brewing you can make a big impact. I know that my life with less God was all over the place and now I have firmer direction!

God bless Cleveland and the Cubs. He's looking down on Spurrier with the South Carolina college football team too!

Hey Stone Dude, sorry to hear that. One thing I've learned about God is, you can do all good and noble things, and still be struggling about life issues. Thankfully I've cleared up mess in my personal life with Jesus and am seeing my external change dramatically. That's it, nothing too deep here. I'm saying life is so much easier with Jesus.

Money is simply a part of life. It can be used wrongly and right. Passing judgement on all Christians based on your perception doesn't change reality.

I can have hundreds of thousands of dollars, be blessed by a God who for whatever reason allows it to happen, drive whatever car it may be, and still be fine with God.

Speaking about a trophy, one doesn't have to idolize it or hold it above God.

It matters not what someone else thinks about me, you, Steve, or that guy over there. It's all about each other's relationship with God. No one is smart enough to pass a judgement call on someone's heart and motives. God has all that knowledge.

Be blessed!

Brian
