    Dear Woody,

    Thank you for the encouragement and Bible verses! I appreciate it all!

    I apologize for taking so long to get back to this post. I actually replied already a day or so ago, but my reply ended up lost in space I guess. I'm not very computer savy, so who knows what I did with it/where it ended up???

    I guess Biblical separation means having to give up pet sins, which is not easy, because they are also habits.

    I do believe it is a matter of the heart/mind, but I also know it matters what we feed our hearts & minds and I know the Holy Spirit wouldn't want me partaking in some of the things I do. I will ask Him to help me desire the right things.

    I long for the days when this won't be an issue to us because we'll be in His kingdom and we won't even think about worldly things!

    Thank you,
    (sister)Dootles

    As a Christian and Baptist, I feel sucure and comfortable in the worldly settings, and feel thats where Jesus Christ would have me. How can I demonstrate to the world how good it is to be a Christian by sticking my head in the sand and avoiding the world. How can I minister as we are called to do by avoiding the world. Look in the crowd and see who is having the most fun and you will find it is a true believer in Jesus Christ. Lets take what we have to the world instead of letting the world take us. A Christian example in a worldly setting, ballgame, church, honky-tonk,car race, etc, is what the world needs to see. Thank you and enjoy the world as God gave it to us.
