I love you sister. I am happy to see you working with that age group...for many have let that group go to wast because they feel it is "to late for them"! It never it, I am proff of that! It is a hard thing to see a family memeber going sooooo very wrong in their life "style", that they refuse to see what kind of harm the are doing to their kids. My own mother wanted my to go along with her lies, or at the lest say nothing when she tells them. I didnt go along with the head games and told her just how wrong she was. It is a hard things to set back and see that my own mom wouldnt protect me from her own sin...but want to seek out her love for it enought to try and get others to agree with it that normally wouldnt for the sake of "really loving them"...when they in truth are being abusive and full of selfish hate for others around them. They dont or arent able to see it that way because they long for others to tell them it is ok for them to live in sin, and love it too...with out demanding change, ever!!!
As for the kjv...I love it, it is like reading poetry, as well as I know many that have been healed just from reading it out loud. My own mothers, when I was around would hide that book and let all else be used in her house but that one...she would act out when I would read it, or quote from it, as well as I have seen demons scream at just the opening of that book at faceing it towords them...It really does a number on them. But on the other hand...I love my brothers and sisters enough to wait and uses when over I can, in hopes they will be lead into using kjv on their own...I see it happening all the time. But to be careful not to cause pain in others so they send their time defending any others kind of bible. It is a wast of time, and unfruitful. I would rather love on them and let G-d handle the rest! amen!
I am happy G-d lead you to use it and but if it came to it, any bible with even a little of the truth in it is better then no truth at all! G-d will and has used it to lead others to him, as well as other things, He is just that big....but growth comes with meat, and a deep love for complete truth wins out in the end.
Yea, I even have lissoned to a audio of the names of G-d in hebrew and was healed by that, freed from a bout of deprassion and a pretty nasty headack. What ever was going on just couldnt stick around those names of what kind of Heavely Father I had.
I feel it is much better not to close the door on something just because it is hard to take in. It is like eatting spinech...yuck...but I do one bit at a time and I get to the point where it is down and downing its job for me! YOu learn it is good and you deal with it as you know in time you will be better off in the long run for it.
I am happy that it was brought up too!
Love you lilly,
