The model said “sorry mom”

July 27, 2019 by Keith Swift Leave a Comment

I was drawn to this Fox News item (7/26/2019), Sports Illustrated model Haley Kalil says ‘sorry mom’ after dancing to tune containing ‘bad word’. The model said “sorry mom”. She was “sorry” because a “bad word” was in a song she danced to.

I wondered, What is her faith background? How did she arrive to her decision, and then apologize – to her mom? Does her faith matter to her?

I searched, and found https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Haley_Kalil – but there was no indication of faith of any kind. Her husband, Matt Kalil, attended a Catholic school near where I went to high school. He went to Servite High School in Anaheim, California, “where he played for the Servite Friars high school football team. Again there was no indication of any faith of his.

Maybe they have a deep faith. Maybe they don’t. But nothing registers….

Made me wonder: how “public” about our faith are we in this land of the free? Does anything “register” with other people — about our faith?

Do people that meet me – soon come to know of my faith in Christ as my Savior? Do I care whether they know or not? Does it matter?

And what about God Himself? Does He know? Does it matter to Him? (It does matter according to this most scary of verses: Matthew 7:23)

What about you and “your faith”? Do people know of your faith in Jesus? Does it matter? Does it matter – what you beleive?

On what do you base your beliefs? Haley Kalil chose to dance to the bad word song, and apologized to her mom (but did it anyway and had the video published). Not really sorry, she continued on her way as before.

“Sorry” doesn’t cut it with God. He asks us to actually repent. There is an eternity of diffence. What choices are you making?

The Bible says we will spend eternity in one place:

it might be we live in Hell,
or
it might be we live in Heaven.

And it all is decided by our will. It’s your choice. What a momentous choice! How much is heaven worth to you?

Does it matter to you where you will spend your eternity? You ready to lose it all? Jesus said “I am The Way“. Do you value Heaven enought to make sure you are following Him with all you got? If not, you’ve made your choice… to go the other way.

You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart and mind and with all your soul and with all your strength [your entire being].

“And now, Israel, what does the Lord your God require from you, but to fear [and worship] the Lord your God [with awe-filled reverence and profound respect], to walk [that is, to live each and every day] in all His ways and to love Him, and to serve the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul [your choices, your thoughts, your whole being]

Deuteronomy 13:3
you shall not listen to the words of that prophet or that dreamer of dreams; for the Lord your God is testing you to know whether you love the Lord your God with all your heart and mind and all your soul [your entire being].

Luke 10:27
And he [Jesus] replied, “You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your strength, and with all your mind; and your neighbor as yourself.”

Bentley – News on Todd Bentley

The charismatic movement has been troubled by unbiblical practices and teachings. I am amazed at how folks are so easily mislead. “Many have exchanged the truth for a lie and chosen experience over content.” Look and examine and see, and compare with what the Bible teaches.

False Prophets

“You may be asking yourselves, “How can we tell if a prophet’s message really comes from the Lord?”” -Deuteronomy 18:21. How can we distinguish the true from the false?

No Faith In Heaven

Faith will not be necessary in heaven. Faith and hope will be ¨done away¨with (1 Corinthians 13:v8). When we finally are brought into His Kingdom, instead of on this earth with His Holy Spirit, then we will have Him, not just merely faith and hope.

Biblical Homosexuality

…a Christian´s Perspective on Homosexuality Quoted from: http://www.indegayforum.org/news/show/31489.html Donny | April 18, 2008, 11:33am | # I’m up to the challenge of gay theology questions: In-hospitality towards others and “haughtiness” were the sins of Sodom. But Ezekiel is quite explicit about sexual sins being front and center as well. “Haughtiness” and the word “Gay” as […]

Inexplicable Joy

Heaven is a joyful place. That is hard for me to imagine… Everywhere I look around me, I see so many problems, issues and unresolved conflicts. But in heaven, they won’t exist anymore. There will only be joy because my sins have been paid for by the blood of Jesus Christ. One of the main things that describes being in heaven is JOY. The word “joy” has a much deeper meaning than just happiness. To be happy can change so quickly. It can come and go in a moment. But joy…

Letter to Danny

We are continually bombarded by the fiery darts of the Evil One. And when these little pricks hit us, we need to put-out the flames, quickly. Doubts, depression, feelings of inadequacy, troubles, unruly kids…, when they come at us, we “have to declare” the truths of God, and we have to choose Truth over lies.

About Biblical Inerrancy

Would God give us erroneous documents and call them “His”? Dumb idea! God brought everything together to form the Bible. Evidence is overpowering as you read what the Bible is, and what it tells us. “It is the history of the Bible that makes it unique among ‘sacred texts.’ See who wrote the Bible, how its reportive style is backed by archeology and historians…” – Quote from “Why You Can Believe the Bible” (www.everystudent.com).

Oh what a day that will be!

Wow! To enter into the Kingdom of God - freely as His redeemed child. No cringing in shame, no burden of sinfulness before Almighty Holy God. I can only imagine.

Jesus, the second man, is the Lord from Heaven

"The first man is of the earth, earthy; the second man is the Lord from heaven.” In 1 Corinthians 15:47 the Apostle Paul explained that Jesus, while on earth, was absolutely God-man. He was not a mere man, ever.

There Is Only One God

Getting tired of people flippantly saying, ¨Oh my god!¨ Ever wonder who their ¨god¨ is!? Does that ¨god¨ know he is ¨theirs¨? Do you say that? We are quite the god-makers, are we not! What do you mean…“your God”?

God Is Not Distant

God is not some far away, distant-from-you, dis-concerned bubble of energy, inside some aura of mist on a mysterious planet far far away…. “And the Lord will watch over your coming and going both now and forevermore” –Psalm 121:8

When it comes to God, who wants mere opinions?

When talking “God” and “Truth” – I really do not care what you think. You should not care what I think. What matters is “what God thinks”.

Lost I Came To Him Oh the wonder of that love of our fathomless Creator, to save me in spite of my self-centered soul. Lost and rebellious, He chose me. Pursued and wooed, what mystery – grace. I said yes to Creator God. To know…

Time as it really is Since Heaven is not regulated by time, the passage of time on earth is a separate event. *We will all step out of time together – into God’s presence, with no “time lag”,…The time it takes to go from earth to God's presence - is instant. There is no waiting around in the next dimension for earth time to finish, no midway point of gathering, no Purgatory. It will be an instantaneous experience for all mankind that ever lived. At the moment of death, our soul instantly leaves....

No Tolerance for Error

God is not sloppy nor wishy-washy.... There is no room at all – for error – when it comes to being right with God. You are either all in, or you are all out. Are you sure you’re in?

Simple View of Life a simple view of everything. God of Everything that is – created everything. We are very fortunate that He is loving and kind, and really, really wants us.

Ashamed of Yourself?

Ever done something you are ashamed of? Come on now, you’re sitting there by yourself – ‘fess-up. Nobody listenin’ to your brain confess. So... Yes? Scenario: “You have? What!?

Being Christian

What's it like these days to be a Christian? Really a Christian. For many, what the Bible teaches is generally okay, but, when it comes to certain specificities, what it says, they reason, needs to be interpreted in the light of today's enlightened realities. But -- will that work in - The End - when we stand before Him, physically? Stop and think about that Day.

Cognitive Dissonance

The Dangers of Consorting With Error

To be faithful to Christ, we cannot mix Jesus plus something. It’s like mixing water with oil. That’s a messy mix. There is contradiction and opposition between the two.The same goes for anything in life: To stay true and faithful to Jesus we absolutely must deny that which denies Christ.
