Common Sense Christianity Matthew Ryan

Many religious beliefs and views upon Christianity lead many of us divided over who we believe is right or wrong. Common Sense Christianity doesn't need to do this. It is right for right's sake. A short summation of Old and New Testament Books set the stage for a Victory. Just what was mortal, what was immortal, and what was eternal? Our mortality needed a sense of conclusion, to unravel the immortal and eternal areas from a "framework of mind" that doesn't make sense to us. Since it is of an "immortal frame of mind" it wasn't supposed to make sense to us. Many of us struggle to be happy for something because we think we should. But we feel differently. Some parts of the Bible leave us perplexed when we are supposed to feel "alright" about our feelings. Within a broader picture, just living life and going to church can leave us thinking differently than what we feel. The two need to co-exist with harmony in order to make any sense of anything. In life, "groups of people" may abide by their "rules"; that maybe had been passed down from one generation to the next. As time changes, their interpretations in many cases remain the same. When anything is perceived to stay on a pedestal, while remaining the same over time, it's perceived importance will never adapt to change. If it isn't allowed to be taken in as input, and used to create output, it will continue keeping everything old. "Making sense" allows us to adapt to change and build our futures, using ideas of the past to help us, but also avoiding ideas of the past that could hurt us. By doing this we can progress without the fear of becoming a product of the past, but rather a leader of the future. A rule can only be answered twice. As one's perception revitalizes the past, a "revitalized" rule of the past may have an infinite number of answers. With insight, a rule of the past can become a guide to the future. By owning it we can use it, revitalize it, and envision something even bigger and better. But, if we don't than it very well may own us. Common Sense Christianity will iron out any "snag" that you may have ever had about Christianity and the Bible. Believing and feeling often times contradict, and that restricts our energy, leaving us tired. Common Sense Christianity is inspiring; adding resources and emotion that are needed to formulate any healthy expression. Especially with what we care about the most.
