Is this place dying?

I came intending to share my Christian thoughts- I can do it in fellowship and with Christian friends sure but I thought it would be quite fun to share with an online Christian audience.

But one post spoke volumes- 40 views and not even a single comment or reaction- that is smear campaign level. It was about God's sovereignty and encouraging evangelism too.

I'm not psychotic- I obviously don't expect any reactions from non Christians but you'd think that other Christians would at least like to share a word of encouragement.

Any ideas on content? If nothing I will post my Bible Study notes from the Baptist chapel tonight and if no reactions then- well I'll probably leave after a few weeks- I'm not going to shout at air.

I cannot confirm or deny that but I share your concern for what was once a thriving arena of like and not so like minded souls.
As if I don't have enough to contend with United being 16th in the Premiership table!
@smiler2012 What have you got against the first united- Sheffield United? 🤨

In the end times, the bible prophecy has listed they will not listen..they turn deaf ears, tgey speak with lips but their hearts are far from God...youre not alone. When tge assignment God gave you is to speak, you speak. When people ridicule you, its tge Lord they are mocking. When you feel ignored, its simply Jesus they are ignoring. You have a distinct character, a personal walk with God, a relationship not a moral religion. Religious people only seek to understand what they get from God and others. Relationship Christians want to serve God. Looking for approval from the Lord, not man. You keep preaching truth and they will never listen, but do it anyway! You keep serving the Lord. Dont firget tge mission isnt about our feelings, our thought, our understanding. Tge real mission is Matthew 28 tge GREAT COMMISSION. One day, EVERY KNEE BOWS, EVERY TOUNGE CONFESSES, EVERY SINGLE PERSON will be judged. You can lead a horse to water, but you can not force them to drink, no more than standing in a car makes you a garage. I feel your frustration..been a sunday school teacher 5 yrs! Theres some who dont hear, but they listen. Alk are called, few are chosen, he will make you equipped to reach the ones who DO WANT Jesus. Dont give up, just give in..presson towards the mark and run yoyr race..dont let them interfere your dedication to HIM..THE GREAT I AM. Prayers and blessings, may you be encouraged bro. Youll see a bigger picture if you focus on God, not selfishness..no offense, but if a quarter is God and an airplane is your problems. Which is bigger? Place the quarter over the air plane and u will see God is bigger and his plans will bribg you justice and peace. Hugs and many prayers.

I would be satisfied knowing that 40 people viewed my post.. Planting seeds like that is awesome..

As far as my thoughts go, you give what you have been given not out of the expectation of cheers and praise from other people.. You give because God wants you to give, because thats the calling..

And as for me i tend to respond when i think i have something to add to the OP or when i am opposed to something said in the OP... If i agree with the OP or the OP is boring i simply am not motivated to respond..

Sometimes, we're just too busy to join in chats on here.
@graphite Not when it comes to a certain politician you're not 🤭

I'm talking about emojis- heart, finger, it takes a split second 🤭

@graphite As you know I don't get involved in those forums anymore, clearly cost me my reputation.

Must.... not.... touch..... the... golden...... calf 🤭

@BritishFailedAesthetic But you lead us there.
@Matt85 How God radically transformed my life.

Walking back from work I often saw a church which advertised it's Bible studies.

On a cold October's Sunday in 2023 when I was fed up with the local lukewarm Anglican church I went to when my wife took the car away when she went on business (meaning I couldn't go to our usual church) I went to that chapel that advertised it's Bible study.

I will always remember the pastor's first words in the first sermon I heard him preach "What person would I be if I had the cure for cancer and didn't tell you?"

This pastor is now my regular Wednesday Bible Study pastor and has set my growth in Christ on fire.
