BEING A DISCIPLE OF CHRIST

BEING A DISCIPLE OF CHRIST


Being a disciple of Christ can be a very easy thing to do in some situations and it can be a little difficult in other situations. For instance, look at the following passage of scripture from the Beatitudes:
Ye have heard that it hath been said, Thou shalt love thy neighbour, and hate thine enemy. But I say unto you, Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you; That ye may be the children of your Father which is in heaven: for he maketh his sun to rise on the evil and on the good, and sendeth rain on the just and on the unjust. (Matthew 5:43-45)
We are told to love our enemies. I’m not talking about lip service. I’m talking about in the thick of the fight, love your enemies. Just after the Twin Towers fell and just after 9-11 when we heard that the Taliban were responsible for the terrorist attacks, could you say in your heart, I love the people of the Taliban.
The Beatitudes also tell us to bless them that curse you and do good to them that hate you. The terrorist hate us. They curse us by their acts or terror. Are you spiritually in a place to bless them and to do good to them? These hard questions will hopefully make us think about what this passage in the beatitudes is talking about. These examples are extreme. But they are valid. What do you think?
Sterling silver cross necklaces for men and women are a great reminder of what we should be doing as a Christian. Perhaps cross necklaces for men serve as a great reminder of what it really means to be a true-blue God fearing Christian.
Do you wear you mens cross necklace with love in your heart toward your fellow man? The cross pendant on the mens cross necklace is a true symbol of love. Wear cross necklaces for men with love and ponder the truths of the Bible and ask yourself "am I on track? If not let’s get ourselves on track.

 




 

WORD CHARMS

WORD CHARMS


Sterling silver word charms come in all shapes, styles and sizes with all kinds of words engraved on them. The type of word charms we are talking about in this post comes in two types of heart shapes and a eternal circle shape. There are over two hundred words and small phrases on these various word charms.

A cool way to use these charms is to use word charms that have special words that link your thoughts to different types of quotes. For instance, in the following quote there are two words that are both central to the quote and are engraved on sterling silver word charms... "Wisdom" and "Courage".

"Wisdom is learning to let go when you want to hang on. Courage is learning to hang on when you want to let go." (Mark Amend)

So wearing a sterling silver necklace with the Wisdom charm and the
Courage Charm would remind you of this quote by Mark Amend.

CELTIC CROSS PENDANTS

CELTIC CROSS PENDANTS

 Then the soldiers of the governor took Jesus into the common hall, and gathered unto him the whole band of soldiers.  And they stripped him, and put on him a scarlet robe.  And when they had plaited a crown of thorns, they put it upon his head, and a reed in his right hand: and they bowed the knee before him, and mocked him, saying, Hail, King of the Jews!
And they spit upon him, and took the reed, and smote him on the head. And after that they had mocked him, they took the robe off from him, and put his own raiment on him, and led him away to crucify him.  (Matthew 27:27-31)
 
 
 
This passage from the Gospel of Matthew is a sad passage of scripture where it talks about the terrible treatment of Jesus.  It's unbelievable that anyone would treat the Son Of God in such a terrible way.
 
 
 
The sad thing is, people treat Him that way today as well. They do so by mocking His eternal sacrifice He made for us in the Garden of Gethsemane and on the Cross. Paying for our sins and the sins of the world.  They take His name in vein and they disregard His commandments and wilfully rebel against His teachings.
 
It's nice that many people revere Him and strive to keep His commandments and strive to follow His teachings in their lives. The sterling silver Celtic cross necklace is a terrific inspirational reminder of your devotion to The Son of God.
 
 
 
The Celtic cross necklace and the sterling silver Celtic cross pendant are a wonderful way to remind you of your commitments to The Lord when you were baptized.
 
 
 
Sterling silver Celtic cross pendants add other symbols to what would normally be a cross pendant. The added symbols are additional symbols that add more Christian meaning to the cross.
 
 
This Claddagh cross pendant shown above is just one of many Celtic cross pendants that add more symbolism to the traditional cross pendant.
