No, I mean the one where God promised him protection and wealth, including the lands there. The one re-affirmed to Isaac... Gen 26:3 Sojourn in this land, and I will be with thee, and will bless thee; for unto thee, and unto thy seed, I will give all these countries, and I will perform the...

Very yuck. I go for the diabetic socks. They don't last quite as long as regular socks, but they are SO much more comfortable. No seam on the toes. They don't leave an imprint on your ankles. Probably just healthier all around.

I don't think anyone who smokes the wacky tobacky uses a dose that doesn't get them high. There are products that separate the inflammation-reducing stuff in hemp (CBD) from the chemical that makes one high (THC). I've tried a couple CBD pain creams but it didn't seem very effective...

Right - the Levitical covenant no longer applies. But what about Abraham's covenant? Abraham was also promised this land, albeit with different terms and conditions.

I wish! That's Nick Freitas - former Green Beret and currently a representative for the state of Virginia. He is an important voice for conservative educational reform, and also has a very successful series of YouTube shorts. Here's one now...

Apologies if I said the part out loud when I should have just...

Men love to explain things. We over-explain things... to the point where we've ridiculed for "man-splaining." If we aren't explaining... that probably means don't care to debate the merits of a decision that we've already made. Closed for discussion.

I agree - the women are better at shooting accurately than the men. They have better muscle endurance and usually better patience than the men, and those are important. But, the men are better at hefting bigger weapons that make accuracy less important...

For many sports, the men's and women's divisions are practically different games. Men's tennis, for instance, is a game of power serving. The guys mostly launch the ball past each other at high speeds. Women's tennis is much more a game of rallies, with most serves being returned. This makes...

It's not unfathomable. I'm not exactly a classical trinitarian, although I don't feel like I can discuss that here. But I certainly believe, "He is the image of the invisible God" and that involves a measure of divinity.

Oh, but it IS. There is lord and there is LORD. The former is a title - owner. The latter is the proper name of God. The Jews do not write or say God's proper name, substituting the former word in common conversation. Jesus Christ is LORD.

I didn't say anything about 'God the Son." The whole of the New Testament affirms that Jesus Christ is Lord. Both Christ and Lord are divine titles. I continue to question how one can call themselves Christian if Christ is not their Lord.

How exactly are you a Christian if you don't believe in the deity of Jesus?

I think so... I haven't had my coffee yet, but let's give it the ol' college try, eh? Look at the word substance in Hebrews 11:1 Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen. Ἔστιν δὲ πίστις ἐλπιζομένων ὑπόστασις πραγμάτων ἔλεγχος οὐ βλεπομένων We can see...
