Pray for the hungry

I have friends in unsound doctrine churches.
I just encourage them to read the scriptures in context.

My heart is heavy for the lost and for the brethren wallowing in the muck and mire of confusing unsound teaching.
As such was I .. wallowing for years in confusion, wondering why I did not believe the same, why I was not excited over the preaching on material gain, wondering, is there more to God than this.

Sad

Wow. When I read the title, I was TOTALLY thinking of the literal "hungry" people in this world, which my heart goes out to.

However, you are SOOOOOOOOOOOOOO right. This world is dying of hunger. And the sad fact is, is that this people are in the church, thinking that they are getting fed. There are big buckets of cotton candy, and people think its satisfying. Its sweet to the taste, and there are lots of it. But it dissolves in their mouth and is not filling AT ALL. And, as we all know, if candy is eaten on a regular basis, it causes more harm then good.
