share lang ko bai ha...murag same concept na sa inum...
generally as Christian, and inum di jud na maau..di jud na i encourage and as much as possible di pud na
i practice...
sa una, bag.o pa ko kristyano(i can consider myself as someone described by paul whose faith was weak, karun weak gihapun but mas weak to sa una..hahaha)...
There is this person that i look up to..great musician, great worship leader...
talks about why we should avoid drinking and all sorts of vices...
now coming from a very "bisyoso" life before Christianity...i agreed with him 100% no alcoholic drinks till the day i die..hehehe
later on, kay banda2x man pud to cla...kami pud...Christian band...
i saw Him nga nitagay sa ubang banda nga gatapok pud...nagki halo bilo...
sa akong huna2x...compromise to...ug iya gitulon iyang gi istorya...
then i found the explanation in this verse...
1 Corinthians 9:20-22
"To the Jews I became like a Jew, to win the Jews. To those under the law I became like one under the law (though I myself am not under the law), so as to win those under the law. 21 To those not having the law I became like one not having the law (though I am not free from God’s law but am under Christ’s law), so as to win those not having the law. 22 To the weak I became weak, to win the weak. I have become all things to all people so that by all possible means I might save some."
of course His Spiritual Level was way too far from mine...mao wala ko kasabut sa iyang gibuhat ato nga time...
mao guro nay pasabut nga naay tay mga binuhatan nga basin maka cause sa mga nagsunod nato to fall...
hence it is best done secretly plus under the state of Grace...
and makita na sa fruits pud...kay kadtong maong tao..in result was able to invite those people nga iyang gi jamman ug tagay2x...
was able to bring them to the Love of Christ..now they can freely talk and enjoy each others company without Tagay2x...
under the state of grace is deep and broad, kahibaw ra ta through descernment ug kung at peace ta sa atong gibuhat..but most of all makita sa resulta...kay sa tunga2x sa akong paglakaw kuyog si Lord
kay akong gihimung justification ang inum2x para kuno maka reach out sa uban...ang ending...ako maoy na reach out nila

kung sa giingun pa ni paul...this is Solid Food for matured Christians...
kadtong black and white nga teaching...para tos baby Christians..'cause they may serve as foundations of faith..
was that guy compromising? only God knows jud...again we base it sa fruits
first we know that drinking is not at all bad, but its EFFECTS?
now are we suppose to kompyansa?no...that's why these things has to be done when we are in the state of grace...otherwise,tagak
next thing we know...hubog ug maoy na..kalamukat ang agi...and hypocrites na ta...
kung nag inum pa nuon to siya, kay nagproblema..naghubog2x...
aw kana madiscourage jud ko ug basin maka ingun ko nga hypocrite to siya...
and what does paul mean about i myself am not under the law?
"To those under the law I became like one under the law (though I myself am not under the law), so as to win those under the law"
para nako, i could be wrong ha...when you are trying to win a muslim
of course, don't eat pork pud..
if you are talking to teens, of course we must be like teenagers pud..
but if we are trying to reach out for people who are really in their lowest...
(addiction,hatred,and other stuff)...our legalistic minds won't help bai...
our nice suit, preacher look type,clean cut with a bible handy won't let them feel we understand them...
and how will you reach out for those whose favorite food is dinuguan and pork?
if you know sonny sandoval of POD...his got tattoos all over his body...
He sings hardcore music...He doesnt even talk about the Law of God all the time
but He does talk about His Love...and is clearly reaching out thousands of people...
people with addicitons..problematic teens....and He its pork too
sorry kaau TS, taas2x nga OT
Peace ta bai ha, this is just for the sake of conversation...

after all, you may be right too...God bless you
now where were we?ah yes, Aliens in the bible...Lol
