Good post, Watchman! When I read threads like this, it reminds me of what I was like when I first accepted Christ. Wanting answers to questions that God was convicting me of, and hoping the answers would agree with what my flesh desired.
Then I realized I was still wanting the "milk," and there would come a time when the milk was not enough. I was ready for the "meat." I was ready to be honest with God and stop fooling around with things of this world. There were much better things for me that I was missing out on because I was just a suckling. Now I'm a meat-eater and I want the same thing God wants for me. I no longer wish to see how close to the world I can get without really sinning.
Get over it, kids! Grow up and start partaking of the meat of the Word! You may just find out how overwhelming His blessings are that are in store for you once you get your mind on Him and off the world . . . I double-dog-dare ya!
