I Was Ashamed Of The Gospel...
Personal growth was always a passion of mine!
Ever since I read my first Brian Tracy book, I was hooked. The whole concept that we can control our future by working on ourselves, fascinated me.
And I've got the bookshelves to prove it lol I was a student of the industry and soaked up every bit of knowledge I could. Now of course, I traded that all in for a different kind of growth....
Spiritual growth.
Let me share with you a verse that I going to lead me in this blog post idea I have for tonight...
The book of Romans has been called the greatest piece of literature in the new testament. It's Paul's magnum opus if you will. And this verse was always one that I wrestled with.
Let me explain....
When I was in 'personal growth' mode, I had my own business. So I studied entrepreneurship. I wrote about it. I taught it. It was my entire life.
But around the year 2014....God came knocking!
I was baptized in 2016, so if you are keeping score here that is a decade of claiming Christ as my Lord and Savior.
But was He really?
I never mentioned my faith and if I did, I almost hid it. I was so sacred that people would judge me as being a 'crazy Christian', and never want to do business with me....
One glance into my blog posts since I got here was....99% blockchain stuff, and maybe 1% #faith based content.
Once again...I didn't want to rock the boat and didn't want a traditional agnostic crypto community, look at me differently.
I was in fact....Ashamed of the gospel.
Kind of pathetic really because I knew Romans 1:16. And I knew that Christ even said we were never to deny Him. Oh wretched man that I am....
I was trying to please man, and not God.
Fast forward and things have obviously changed. I'd like to tell you it was some great revelation I had at one moment in time, but that wasn't it. I just had enough of being silent.
Now I'm not saying, Hive is a hot bed for religious content. And I'm not saying that everyone will agree with each other when it comes to different faiths.
But I truly do feel comfortable here, talking and sharing testimonies about my walk with Jesus. And the goal, which has always been, even when I was in business...Was for someone to have a break through of some kind.
Maybe they read their #bible a bit more. Maybe they go to church next week. Maybe they write their own faith based content. Maybe they join the Kingdom ..
That's between them and God.
For now, I'm just grateful that I can proclaim from the roof tops...I'm no LONGER ashamed of the gospel!
We'd love to have you join and take part in both the Kingdom community on chain as well as it's Discord channel. We are a friendly bunch, that love to discuss religion and our walks with Jesus. We'd love to see you!
Also, I have a healthy amount of #bbho that I upvote with in the BBHO Community. If you add #bbh to your blog posts tags, I'll make sure to give you a hefty upvote as well!
If you leave a thoughtful comment on any of my blog posts (and find the hidden words in my videos...) I'll send you some HSBI shares as a reward for engaging with me.
Happy Monday everyone 🙏🏾 please read and share may the truth be with you 🙏🏾👇🏾👇🏾👇🏾👇🏾👇🏾👇🏾👇🏾👇🏾

Hello everyone I hope you are all good and well today in this post is some of the evidence to prove my case
If you didn't know I've been getting downvoted for a long time on Hive
They have been trying to bully me with downvotes and words but it doesn't affect me I've been online for over 25 years
So I've dealt with people like this before it's nothing new
But what they are doing is bad Very badi joined steemit like everyone else thinking it offers freedom but I must say steemit offered much more freedom than Hive does
Everyone already knows I only post my own original content I have no need to steal anything from anyone
I've been labelled a lot of things on Hive 😂 by the biggest farmers scammers and downvoters
Actions speak louder than any words do especially when them words are coming from a compolsive liars
I will keep updating this post when I get time

Beautiful and holy message. Focus on God is the real goal we should be emphasizing more in our lives.
It's so easy to say, and hard to do at times.
Very true, actions are missing usually.
Jon, I found this post to be really inspiring and convicting actually.
We are all Peter (that would make a good tshirt!!)
The amount of times I’ve backed out of sharing the gospel because of my feeling uncomfortable is shameful.
I’m so glad for grace.
Thank you for this reminder.
I battled it so much. Glad for grace for sure, and His infinite patience with us lol
Although an agnostic myself, your message of self policing hit home with me. It is something that has become more common for me in these times in which we live. There is more of a hesitation, for me, in jumping in with a comment or off the cuff posting than there had been in the past.
It speaks something of your faith to have overcome that in yourself.
😎👍
Appreciate you swinging by! Yeah, there are times I needed a muzzle lol and others when I should have spoken up. Learning this life thing :)
That is a very inspiring verse from Romans
Wakes me up!
I guess that is the beauty of Hive where it can be use to share the gospel
Agreed!
