Freedom in Christ

I have 3 big announcements that I would like to make. First of all, I am going to be in a competition called You God's music.  The other two are that I have collaborated with a friend of mine on 2 other channels. We post drawing videos and poetry to them.  "No Hopeless Soul" Cover music video: https://youtu.be/5CkmYJHRfWo Original artist, Stephen Stanley.  Your Avenue channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCijgyEo2SSnOOTpExZyiJrQ Coffee Talk Show channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCt6c06pdVvPRyk4lLyb2qfA #stephenstanley #YouGodsMusic --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/tamarachaos/support

Hello everyone. I would like to say thank you for watching my channel, I really appreciate it. I really appreciate the comments.  Psalms 118:6 The Lord is for me, so I will have no fear. When was the last time you had to ask the Lord to be with you so you felt brave?   The Lord is for me, so I will have no fear.  What can mere people do for me? You see, we can’t rely on people like we can the Lord. What can mere people do for me?   Verse 7, the Lord is for me, he will help me. I will look for triumph at those who hate me. You know they really don’t hate you. They hate the spirit of God living in you. They might not realize it, but the Lord is hated more than we are.  Don’t these verses make you feel so hopeful?   We can be confident because we have a big powerful God looking out for us. He is on our side. You ever see parents at a game? They cheer their kids on. The kids can’t hear them, but they know they are there cheering them on. They love that they are supported.   Now let’s take a look at Colossians 2:12. I love how this reads.  For you were buried with Christ when you were baptized. Isn’t that just amazing imagery? When we get baptized, we are underwater, basically buried under water. We come back up a new person. I was baptized a few weeks ago. It is not my first time, but it will be my last time. I had personal reasons as to why I did it again. Let’s move on. For you were buried with Christ when you were baptized. And with him you were raised to a new life because you trusted the mighty power of God, who raised Christ from the dead.  So if you are discouraged right now, don’t give up-don’t lose hope. God is on your side. Who better to be on your side than God? When the final day of judgement comes and he calls your name, you will run out of that grave. That is how powerful God is.  Thank you. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/tamarachaos/support

October 6th is a day set aside each year to bring out your silly side while celebrating National Mad Hatter Day. The fictional character, The Hatter (also known as The Mad Hatter) from Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland, is typically acting silly, and that is how the creators of this day decided on their theme of silliness for National Mad Hatter Day. Sir John Tenniel illustrated The Mad Hatter and all of Lewis Carroll’s colorful characters beginning in 1864. Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland was first published in 1865. via:   https://nationaldaycalendar.com/national-mad-hatter-day-october-6/ https://youtu.be/NLAvWkdEles  Ephesians 4:31 “Get rid of all bitterness, rage, anger, harsh words and slander, as well as all types of evil behavior. Instead, be kind to one another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, just as God through Christ has forgiven you.”  I want us to talk about bitterness for a bit. I have a little demonstration I would like to show you. (Do we do this outside or inside? Do we talk about how since there is a break in the rain, we can do it outside?  I have some rocks that represent grudges. This big one, someone has something you have been wanting for years. This medium one, people seem to walk all over you while others get praised. This little one, someone said something to you that really ticked you off. (Keep filling the bowl with rocks) Now, this water, represents kindness and love. (Pour it over the rocks) Do you see how there isn’t much room for it now because we have all these rocks in here, aka, grudges? Let’s take some out. Oh, look, there is more room now. Keep going. Look, there are no grudges now, look how much love and kindness can be done now. (Now we go back inside) Being bitter doesn’t help anyone. It doesn’t help you and it doesn’t help the person you are bitter towards. It is more taxing on your mental state than anything else, I think. This is not the character of God. It really does take more energy to be jealous and mean than it does to be kind and gentle. Let’s look at Eph 4:2, “Always be humble and gentle. Be patient with each other, making allowance for each other’s faults because of your love. 3. Make every effort to keep yourselves united in the Spirit, binding yourselves together with peace.” And now let’s fast forward to 4:24, “Put on your new nature, created to be like God-truly righteous and holy.” When we start moving towards stronger discipline of ourselves, we can start putting on a new self, drenched in the Spirit of the Lord. And finally, let’s end with 5:2 “Live a life filled with love, following the example of Christ. He loved us and offered himself as a sacrifice for us, a pleasing aroma to God.” As you can see, it is better to live a life filled with love than of jealousy. It can be very difficult for some though. What can you do to help yourself? Thank you. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/tamarachaos/support

Isaiah 9:2 The people who walk in darkness will see a great light. For those who live in a land of deep darkness, a light will shine.   Whose light are they going to see? Will it be yours or will it be someone else’s? Is your light bright enough? I was trimming the weeds in front of my house. They are too hard for me to pull so I just cut them down, so they are even with the stuff that isn’t weeds. Well, anyway, the plug kept falling out, so I had to keep putting it back in periodically while I cut.https://youtu.be/KONCT2IFf1o   You know this reminds me of how we need to stay plugged into God. When we stop going to church and stop reading the Bible and praying, we are not the same as we could be if we did plug in. I couldn’t do a thing with that hedge trimmer unless it was connected to receive the power from the house. It says the people who walk in darkness will see a great light. The great light is God, and we are his beacons. We are set in place so that we can reflect the light of Jesus. God is like a lighthouse, and you know they have those lights that shine every which way, that is what we are, what we can be if we draw enough power from the source. Don’t be a dim light bulb. Shine big! Show love. Reflect Jesus. Thank you. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/tamarachaos/support

What sorrow for those who drag their sins behind them with ropes made of lies, who drag wickedness behind them like a cart! Isaiah 5:18What is holding you back from living in true freedom? Your past? Your shame? You don’t need to live like that.  God has wiped away any wrong doings of your past if you have truly asked for his forgiveness. God doesn’t want you live in sorrow, he wants you to live in joy.  If he didn’t want that, why He put in place a forgiveness idea at all?  1 John 1:9 If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and cleanse us from all unrighteousness. If God did not forgive our sins, this scripture wouldn’t exist in the Bible.  I know it’s hard to forgive yourself but if the God of the universe forgives you who are you to not forgive yourself? God is up in heaven with a notepad writing down our sins so that when we ask for forgiveness he can remind himself of when he forgave you before, of course, he is all knowing so he doesn’t need a notepad, but he forgives and your slate is wiped clean. You know who does constantly remember your sins? Yep, you guessed it, satan. He is the ruler of destruction.  All he cares about is how can he destroy what God loves the most? Oh, yeah, let’s remind people of their sins. I can really destroy them now. That is what sin does. It eats away at your very core until there is barely anything left. God can restore you, especially when you are at the end of the rope. Don’t let the ropes control you. Let go of them. You don’t need them. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/tamarachaos/support

But if we are living in the light, as God is in the light, then we have fellowship with each other, and the blood of Jesus, his son, cleanses us from all sin. 1 John 1: 7 I've been sitting here trying to figure out how I want to comment on this verse. First of all, yes we should all try our best to live a life dedicated to God. We should all strive every day to learn more and more about Jesus so we know the ins and outs of his character. But how do we then have fellowship with each other? If we all work together, then we can help each other reach the goal we all have- meeting Jesus in person. This is why none of us should have a haughty disposition. None of us are in are any better than anyone else. We are all striving for the same goal so why not work together instead of against each other? It's interesting how the verse says  “and the blood of Jesus, his son, cleanses us from all sin.” This is no doubt referring to Jesus dying on the cross, but do you see the distinction? This verse makes a point of saying the blood of Jesus. You know my blood type is rare. Jesus has a rare blood type too unlike any other. Jesus is the only blood type that can grant eternal life. It HAD to be the blood of Jesus and the verse doesn't just say God son, but distinctly points out about the blood. You see how different God and Jesus are from other gods? Jesus will wipe away anything that prevents you from meeting him in paradise. Stay strong, stay connected, stay focused. The outcome is worth it. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/tamarachaos/support

It’s hard to imagine that walking with Jesus is different than walking with the world, but it is. Jesus spoke to the people once more and said, “I am the light of the world. If you follow me, you won’t have to walk in darkness, because you will have the light that leads to life.” John 8:12 NLT --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/tamarachaos/support

Freedom in Christ podcast 3 When we walk into an art gallery, we’re surrounded by pieces that reflect the creativity and imagination of the artist. Some artworks may catch our eyes more than others, but each one is a unique expression, often reflecting the value placed upon it by the artist or the buyer. In these galleries, some pieces are valued more highly than others, and they’re priced accordingly. But this earthly value is often subjective, based on human perception, demand, or even the artist’s reputation. You are made in the image of God, and you are beautiful, and that’s why Satan wants to destroy you. But I want to draw your attention to a different gallery—a heavenly gallery where the Artist is God Himself, and the artwork on display is you and me.

Freedom in Christ Podcast 2 It can be so hard to navigate through this world. We really do need guidance and the one who can provide that guidance is the Holy Spirit. As Christians, we are supposed to be encouraging to one another, but sadly most of are only concerned with themselves. Churches will often send mixed messages and so it gets very confusing. On one hand they say come to church, grow from each other, and if people don't get that growth or feel like they are welcomed, they are accused of coming to church for connection with others and not the sermon itself. The churches that understand this are the real successful ones. This podcast is available where ever you get your podcasts.

Freedom in Christ Podcast 1 When we commit our lives to Christ, we can feel so much freedom. To people who don't understand, this can be seem impossible. But after committing to Christ, it changes. Some people think that they will have to give up so many enjoyable activities-maybe so, but after committing to Christ, these things will come naturally. Don't think one has to change overnight. These things take time, and the end result is worth it. https://youtu.be/DB_9cuhOxXI?si=LgPhJGQBEwpFQzkC Bishop Barron channel: https://music.youtube.com/channel/UCcMjLgeWNwqL2LBGS-iPb1A?si=ZdFrd1zdzmjR3g2o Tamara Chaos is an Ordained Minister /Coffee Lover/Singer/Former Martial Artist/Actress Videos will be announced.

A Sub-Series of A Passion for Jesus Jesus loves everyone no matter what their background. This is the attitude that should reflect in everyone who professes to know Jesus as their Lord and Saviour. Jesus should be top priority in their lives. We can't reach others for Christ if all we do is go and around and keep condemning them for everything they do that is wrong in our eyes. We are supposed to have the eyes of Jesus. God doesn't look at our flaws and make a judgement call, thank the Lord! He teaches and practices forgiveness, patience and being a loving person. He asked questions of people and let them tell their story. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/tamarachaos/support

Nestled deep in the Acacia Woods is a cave taken over by a Christian group called Positive Light. They are a pro-Christian group that is dedicated to spreading the gospel. Zayna stumbled upon this cave and ran off with a journal that Positive Light stole from a rebel group called the Opal Syndicate. The Opal Syndicate stole it because they didn't want anything to do with the Bible spreading around and sending a message of peace, love and compassion to their people. They didn't want their people influenced. Come enjoy this epic adventure.
