I have about 300 subscribers to my blog at present and about 300 likes on my blog page on Facebook and am figuring they are not all the same, so if you follow me on here and feel up to it, it would be great if you could take a moment and go and like my Facebook group page which will give other people a better chance of finding it… if you want to go one better and SHARE it on your wall that would be most appreciated: https://www.facebook.com/IrresistiblyFish
I am on The Twitter as i like to call it because let’s be honest there is only one – and you call follow me there @brettfisha if you want to and again if you generally like the stuff here why not give a shout out for @irresistibleFsh [no i] because there is no ‘i’ in Fish, especially when your name becomes to long for The Twitter to handle] which is my official blog The Twitter account. Thank you.
If you want to go one more step ridiculously further, then I have a You Tube account where I make both silly Brad Fish videos like this Dangerous Things You Can Least Expect series over here as well as this Walking through the Gospel of Mark in the Bible series over here but i think the You Tube account, if you are wanting to subscribe to the whole thing, resides over here. For some reason I had to go with Mr Brettfish as my username [perhaps the lead singer of Suede in the UK has a You Tube page]
That’s pretty much it – the only other way I have for you to follow me is a lot more stalkery and I’d quite rather you didn’t. I am at least three years away from ‘rummaging through my trash’ status unless of course I manage to finally stumble upon a comedy video format that someone actually watches, likes and passes on to their 12, 000, 000 friends but my aversion to working with kittens and small children makes this unlikely.
I leave you with this quote – ” ”
Sorry that should read “with these quotation marks” although they are probably called something different in Americaland.
So for passing on sake I will close with a picture of a kitten and a small child.
Thankx for journeying with me, those of you who do. Comment more. Share more. And send more melted chocolate…
I have a suggestion for you to write about this please.
It says to keep the Sabbath Holy right? Okay, so what does this entail? Can we go for a drive? Or are we then causing others like traffic officers to work and then it is not completely keeping the sabbath holy. Using electricity on Sunday means power-station workers have to work. Going to a restaurant or coffee – same. I am a bit troubled. Should I just spend the day at home? Or go for a walk. And no lights. Or is it okay or within reason to do certain things?
Thanks for your articles.
And article 2:
Jesus said to sell what you have and follow him. So I have some things like a stove, clothes, old car and small odds and ends. Should I sell it? But then is following him like just quiting society and going to look for him or to help the poor in a home or charity? How does it work? What form will he take for this to happen? How will i know its him or not?
Thanks – sorry for all the questions.
hey Trev – when understanding the Bible it is really important to do your best to understand context as well… so i think you are referring to Jesus and the rich young ruler when Jesus tells him to sell everything and give it to the poor – Jesus was giving a specific person a specific instruction and it was meant for him [because Jesus knew how attached he was to his money and stuff and he proves that by walking away disappointed] so it is not a teaching that He gave to everyone and thus does not have to be followed… BUT what He does say to all of us is if we want to follow Him we must deny ourself, take up our cross daily and follow Him – so the call is higher in a sense cos He doesn’t just want our stuff and money but He wants our lives… also in Matthew 25 we are called to look out for the least of these and in James to look after widows and children and also to love our enemies and so any of these things might require us at some stage to sell stuff to have money to give to them – we just need to be listening closely to the Holy Spirit and respond in obedience to whatever He calls us to do or give…
when He talks about following Him i think He means living a life that is consistent with His teachings which can mean going somewhere else, but it can also mean staying where we are and living a kingdom life in front of everyone we know.
