The song "James" by Dr. Simon J. Kistemaker is a gospel song that talks about the faith and strength that comes with a belief in God. The lyrics emphasize the importance of God's grace and mercy and how it can help individuals overcome difficult situations. The use of repetitive phrases such as "His blood is expensive" and "His grace is sufficient" highlight the idea that the power of God is all that is needed to succeed. The lyrics also emphasize the idea that despite any challenges or obstacles, it is already well and that with God's strength, one will prosper wherever they go.
Interestingly, the use of the name James in the title of the song may have biblical roots as there are a few prominent Jame(n)s mentioned in the Bible such as James the Greater and James the Less who were both apostles of Jesus. Additionally, the use of the phrase "bad belle" in the song is a Nigerian expression used to describe people who are envious of one's success or good fortune. This references Dr. Kistemaker's Nigerian roots as he was born in Nigeria and grew up in a Christian family.

por fin alguien que dice algo sabio porque se la pasan es peleando quien es quien tiene la mejor interpretación de apocalipsis.

El tituló debió ser otro jaja

Mis hermanos en Cristo de mi iglesia son muy dogmáticos con respecto a todas las doctrinas que creen, incluyendo la escatología, me es muy difícil contradecirlos o debatir ya que no les gusta poner en tela de duda lo que creen. Mi iglesia es de sana doctrina aunque no estoy completamente de acuerdo con todo lo que se prédica, y en escatología no estoy de acuerdo con mis hermanos, ellos son postmilenialistas, y bueno es complicado para mi decir que yo no creo en su interpretación del apocalipsis, es incómodo tener hermanos tan dogmáticos como los de mi iglesia, aunque los amo mucho, es triste que sean tan cerrados ante otros puntos de vista con respecto a la escatología y otras ramas de la teología en general 🥺😰
¿Cómo debería tratar con hermanos en Cristo así, algún consejo?

Ora y pide a Dios dirección sobre lo que tienes que hacer. Viví una situación similar y Dios me sacó de esa iglesia y me llevó a otra de sana doctrina. Doy gxs a Dios que ya tengo 7 años en esta congregación.
Estaré orando por tí y el Señor te guíe. Dtb grandemente
