Welcome to FireTime, the only blog on tumblr where you can follow and get free bunny slippers!!! Not really, sorry, that’s out of budget right now. One of these days though….

Anyway let’s get down to business with some epic history. In the beginning, yes the beginning of time, God spoke the world into existence, and made the first man and woman. Everybody knows this basic story (if you don’t, look it up in the bible in the book of Genesis). We all know how Adam and Eve sinned by eating from the one tree God told them not to. I mean, come on Adam and Eve, you had ONE JOB. Anyway, God cast them out from the Garden of Eden into the world filled with idiocy and unpleasant bugs.

So after a whole bunch of bible stories to help teach man morality, God sends his only son, Jesus, to come down and save everyone from our sins. And so, this man to whom I call my lord and savior, dies on the cross for all of our sins. But wait, there’s more. Three days later, he comes back to life! He then rises up to the heavens to meet up with his father.

John 3:16 says, “For God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life.” I’ve heard the argument from atheists that say, “There’s nothing beautiful about a story about a father butchering his own son because the rest of the world sinned. If he loved us soooo much, why didn’t he just forgive us?!” The answer to this is simple. We’re all stupid by nature. Looking back to Adam and Eve when they sinned, what would’ve happened if God just let it slide? I mean, it’s stupid to think that they wouldn’t try sinning again. Come on, if they got away with eating out of the ONE tree in that whole garden, what else could they have gotten away with?

God had to send Jesus to save us, because there is no way we could atone for our sins. We’re sinful by nature. Nothing we can do can other than submitting ourselves to God and believing in him. And luckily that’s all he asks us to do!

What does all this have to do with FireTime? I will be exploring different ideas about different situations we face today. I will be partnering with God, to help you understand the many ways to view these situations, and entertaining you along the way. If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to ask, or if you want to give input on your beliefs, please email me at fire.time.rsmith@gmail.com

I hope you have a blessed day and remember to keep your fire for God blazing!
