Is It True That We Can Become Wise in Our Own Opinion?

Is It True That We Cannot Be Wise In Your Own Opinions?

By: Anthony Joseph Hopkins

                       Praise The Lord Everyone!! How are all of you doing today?  Fine, I hope.  I want to inform everyone that I have a very important question to ask all of you.  Is it true that we cannot be wise in our own opinions?  This is a very good question because it makes me think about my life itself.  God is good!! All the Time; God is Good!!  I want to tell everyone that we are supposed to be not wise in our own conceit.  What is the definition of the word conceit? 

The definition of the word conceit is excessive pride in oneself.  Expression in writing or speech; an elaborate metaphor.  The word conceit has a whole lot to do with our sense of pride in ourselves.  To be perfectly honest with you, this is the reason why I have to watch my tone of voice that I use towards others.

 

 

Next, I want to inform everyone that I have changed my behavior because I know that know that God is watching me every single day of the week.  I know that I have to continue to seek the Lord at all times.  I realize that this year 2019 has been good to me.  Even though, there were a lot of things that have occurred inside of my community, I want to say that God has been with me. 

 

Finally, I want to inform everyone that I am very content with myself right now.  I am being very careful when it comes to expressing myself to others.  I know that I am still a Work in Progress.  It is that I have to be more humble in speech and in my behavior.  What is the definition of the word humble?  The definition of the word humble is having a having or showing a modest or low estimate of one's own importance.  This means that I am submitting to a higher authority.  The higher authority that I am referring to is Jesus Christ.  Proverbs 11:12; when pride comes, then comes disgrace, but with the humble is wisdom.  1 Peter 5:5; Likewise, you who are younger, be subject to the elders. Clothe yourselves, all of you, with humility toward one another, for God opposes the proud but gives grace to the humble.

Have You Ever Wrestled with God

Have you ever wrestled with Satan in the same way that the Man of God Wrestled with Jacob?        I have a very important question to ask everyone right now.  Have you ever wrestled with Satan in the same way that Jacob wrestled with the Man of God?  I am asking this question because I had a flashback recently.  It happened in 1974 when I got into a fist fight with a 15-year-old boy.  We got into a fist fight over a black fisted pick that people used to comb their hair.  I fought this boy because he threatened my manhood over something that he could have purchased for himself.               Next, I fought with this boy because he threatened me with violence.  I might have been younger, but that poor brother was limping after I got finished with him.  He got away on his bike.  I want to inform all of you that this boy was 6 years older than me.  I want to say that I might not have wre...

Matthew 5:23-24

Matthew 5:23-24!! What does this means to all people?         Good Day Everyone!! This is an essay that pertains to the Beatitudes inside of Matthew 5 th -7 th  Chapters.  I have selected two of the Bible verses just to place emphasis.  First, I want to say that this is not very easy for some people to apologize to another person, especially after you have done something wrong to that person.  For me personally, I want to inform all of you that my baby brother called me a homosexual because I am responsible for paying my other brother and a friend’s phone bill each month.  I understand that my brother called me out of my name without just cause.         Next, I want to inform everyone that my brother was out of line for calling me out of my name.  I have confronted him about the problem, but he refuses to reconcile.  Therefore, I am praying for him each and every single day of the we...

God is Watching All of US

    God is watching all of us!!   I know for myself that God has been watching me because He is solely responsible for waking me up this morning.  He watches me because I know that I am not able to get away with anything that I am doing wrong throughout my entire 60 years of existence. Next, I want to inform everyone that I have been a Born Again Christian for 10 years now.  I will admit that I have had my moments when I have acted out by using words that does not make sense.  Lord God, I am asking You; to please forgive me of all of my sins both past and present.  This also includes any sins that I am thinking about inside of my mind, as well as any besetting sins that I have presently. Good Afternoon Lord Jesus!!  How are you doing today?  Fine, I hope.  I want to inform you that I am only a Work in Progress.  The reason why I am saying this is simply because I am not perfect.  I am asking you to please bridle my tongue; so t...
