...The Eternal Security of the Believer Whether or not a saved person can be lost again is a much discussed, a much disputed question. Certainly the devil hates for one to believe that a Christian is safe because this would give God all the glory. The doctrine of security gives no credit to the devil or to humans. God gets all the glory for saving and keeping. So it is the doctrine that the devil hates more than any other. Therefore if one dislikes this doctrine, you know whose side he is on. The words "eternal security" are not found in the Bible. But neither is the word substitute, or the word Trinity. Yet Christians have always believed that Christ was our substitute; that God is a Trinity. Though the exact word that we may use is not found in the Bible, the teaching is there! The terminology used by some when discussing the doctrine of the safety of the Believer may not be found exactly per say but the teaching is there, without doubt. The Bible says, "The name of the Lord is a strong tower. The righteous runeth into it and is safe." (Proverbs 18:10) "The fear of man bringeth a snare, but whoso putteth his trust in the Lord shall be safe." (Proverbs 29:25) The word "safe" used in both these verses, is an absolute term. You cannot be half safe. If you are only half safe then you are not safe. If you are safe then you are not in any danger. You are not safe until you are completely out of danger. The Bible says those who have trusted Christ are safe. The Bible is either right or...

...tried to burry my emotions within me but the pain was so strong and my heart was broken. All the past memories clicked back in my mind. I had not seen him from the past eight months and today I saw him after such a long period. I have been thinking about him every second of this long period and although tears were running out of my eyes but I had never been so happy .He had been in my thoughts, in my memories and today I just saw him after a very long time. We had brought out the best in each other rather I would say we shared our lives but that day he threw it all away. I still remember those words and the echo of those words are still driving me mad. “I cannot continue this relationship and we cannot be together anymore. I am forced to take this decision” I wanted to ask him why, I wanted to scream at him asking for who is he alone to take decisions of our lives. I wanted to cry on his shoulder telling him that a life without him would be a life without living. But instead I just kept quiet afraid to look in his eyes for I knew I would break down. I didn’t say a word may be because I was never prepared for such a situation. I never knew that someone who has been holding my hand for so long will leave me in the middle of this long journey of life. And even today I am still standing on that very same place where he left me for there is no hope to...

I never wanted to return there again. I walked back to the car in tears with my head down. I wanted to go back home, instead of going to school, and go lay in my bed to cry all day. I didn’t want to hear what my friends had to say, but I knew it was coming. “What happened girl?” “You will be ok!” “How many mistakes did you make?” “When do you have to come back?” My reply to every question was, “I don’t know, leave me alone!” This was an embarrassing situation for me. I never thought I would fail my first drivers test. I had 3 tests to take, the two written parts and actual driving test. First, I passed my two written parts and the actual driving tests (the signs test and written test). Then, I had to take the driving test. I was nervous, but also confident. I had never driven for a stranger before, but my instructor seemed to be nice. As we made it to the car, I kept getting nervous by the second. Next, I had to check the blinkers so my instructor could know they were working properly. After testing the blinkers, my instructor was ready for me to begin my test. I pulled out of the DMV, and was told to make a left turn and pull out onto the highway. So far I was doing great. My first stop sign was coming ahead. I was scared, but I did great making a complete stop. After I had...

...How much of one’s knowledge depends on interaction with other knowers? Most of a person’s knowledge comes from and depends upon the interaction with others. We simply cannot have knowledge if you are isolated from others. Take the example that you are alone, in a room, with no windows. In this situation the person in the room cannot possibly have any understanding of the outside world. They would also not know the most basic of information. Would one know that one was human or that there are other people beside oneself out there? How would one also think of things if there were no former knowledge of language? The person in the above example can be thought of as one of the humans that are living in the underground cave in the article that I have previously read titled, “The Allegory of the Cave.” Both the person in the room and the human in the cave have no prior knowledge of the outside world. Though the human has seen shadow, heard voices, and has had some interaction with others, he still does not know whether the things that he has seen or heard are in fact true. The person in the room does not have the luxury to leave the room like the human in the cave did to explore the world. Because the human was able to leave the cave, he gained new knowledge and learned that his previous knowledge was not correct. A way that we can gain knowledge from the interaction of others is through our parents or peers. As we are growing up, our parents help us gain knowledge of the world...

...great lessons from that one principle, and it appears to me that all the secret of success is there; to pay as much attention to the means as to the end. Our great defect in life is that we are so much drawn to the ideal, the goal is so much more enchanting, so much more alluring, so much bigger in our mental horizon, that we lose sight of the details altogether. But whenever failure comes, if we analyse it critically, in ninety-nine per cent of cases we shall find that it was because we did not pay attention to the means. Proper attention to the finishing, strengthening, of the means is what we need. With the means all right, the end must come. We forget that it is the cause that produces the effect; the effect cannot come by itself; and unless the causes are exact, proper, and powerful, the effect will not be produced. Once the ideal is chosen and the means determined, we may almost let go the ideal, because we are sure it will be there, when the means are perfected. When the cause is there, there is no more difficulty about the effect, the effect is bound to come. If we take care of the cause, the effect will take care of itself. The realization of the ideal is the effect. The means are the cause: attention to the means, therefore, is the great secret of life. We also read this in the Gita and learn that we have to work, constantly work with all our power; to put our whole mind in the work, whatever it be, that we are doing. At the same time...

I mean, you don't know what can happen from day to day, when you think about it in your mind. I mean, what would happen if I walked out that door and the door closed and as the door closed, it slammed shut, and no matter what you did, you could not open the door and you knew that you would never be able to look into my eyes again and you'd never be able to hear my voice again and you'd never be able to feel my touch again."

I have seen several ups and downs throughout life, but through them all I’ve managed to turn the negative situations into positive outcomes, and the positive situations into greater achievements. There are several reasons why I feel that I have had a wonderful life and will explain what factors contributed my success and happiness in life. I am sharing several key events that happened while I was growing up that influenced my adulthood. I truly believe I became separated from a lot of my parental influences and depended on reading books, and the influence of friends from church, which strayed me into the right paths for my life.
