BLAZEr Posted December 6, 2003 Share Posted December 6, 2003 (edited) Here's the thing though JuCa, if you are turned away from the appeal of the Mystery and the ultimate reality by a few crass words, then are you seriously looking for it? I don't think they talk like 'sailors' but there is certainly a color to many of the Italian's language. I think that's part of it . . . I can't remember who told me, but I thought it was so true that I'm sure it was a Cler . . . "God, the Infinite, the Mystery decided to come down here and be born in the middle of sh*t, straw, and everything. He came to the vulgar and raised it up, gave it a meaning. Can you imagine if people could find all that donkey carp in the stable. It would be a relic nowadays." I loved it . . .

JuCa Posted December 6, 2003 Author Share Posted December 6, 2003 Yes, I am seriously looking for it. It doesn't personally turn me away...I know it's their culture...these words are in their blood! But to others it does...I know a girl who can barely stand it- but she is still searching, desiring, ect.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DesiringMore Posted December 12, 2003 Share Posted December 12, 2003 I have the desire to be Christ-like! to follow hard after Jesus! Can you find anywhere in the Bible where Jesus cussed? How are you different than anyone else in the world if you do exactly wha the world does? "Put to death, therefore, whatever belongs to your earthly nature: secual immorality, impurity, lust, evil desires and greed, which is idolatry. because of these, the wrath of God is coming. you use to walk in these ways, in the life you once lived. but now you must rid yourselves of all such things as these: anger, rage, malice, slander, and filthy language from your lips."--Colossians 3:5-8 "Pray that i may proclaim it clearly, as i should. be wise in the way you act toward outsiders; let your conversation be always full of grace, seasoned with salt, so that you may know how to answer everyone"--Colossians 4:4-6 "do not let anyone look down on you because you are young, but set an EXAMPLE for the believers in SPEECH, in LIFE, in FAITH, and in PURITY"--1Timothy 4:12 "with the tongue we praise our Lord and Father, and with it we curse men, who have been made in God's likeness. out of the same mouth come praise and cursing. my brothers and sisters, this should not be. can both fresh water and salt water flow fromt he same spring?"--James 3:9-11 "As obedient children, do not conform to the evil desires you had when you olived in ignorance. but just as he who called you is holy, so be holy in all you do; for it is written: 'Be holy, because i am holy'"--1Peter 1:14-16 I'm just curious how you feel about these verses? there are so many more that i could state, but i think you may understand by these. i pray you have an open heart as you read each scripture. may it move you in some way closer to Christ.
