You mean Alahahahahaha don't you? I like the way you like to space out my truth and then attempt to comment and spin your Jihad. However, the truth remains,
You deny Jesus is God and Hell Fire? Simple Biblical questions! No Biblical answer expected! Your clear EVASION of my Biblical questions proves you don't believe in Jesus God or everlasting Hell Fire! Have you read the CYB Statement of Faith"
YOU HAVE NOT ONCE ANSWERED MY QUESTIONS. Not once.
You just don't like Biblical answers. Jesus is God and Hell Fire is FOREVER! Jesus said so.
Shari Law cannot overcome the Supreme Law because Shari Law was created by a Psychopath hiding behind religious deception..."that too shall pass".
Shari Law?

I never said Jesus is not God,
So, is He God?
but Hell isn't fire,
Should we believe you or Jesus?

Matthew 5:22
22 Whoever says, 'You fool!' shall be in danger of hell fire.
the Lake of fire is fire. The bible dosen't describe the "Lake of Fire" as hell.
True, it says Hell will be merged into the Lake of Fire. Fire does not destroy fire!

Revelation 20:14
14 And death and hell were cast into the lake of fire.

Revelation 20:10
10 The devil, who deceived them, was cast into the lake of fire and brimstone where the beast and the false prophet are. And they will be tormented day and night forever and ever.
But that isn't even the issue. The issue is this you coward; why don't you answer this very simple question. Where does it say in the bible that if someone doesn't believe that Jesus is God, they are going to hell...SHOW ME!
Why are you EVADING my question? Is Jesus God?

Yes, states can secede from the federation of many other states, but they have first to determine whether or not their cash flow liquidity can float/support their seceded state without any help from the other federated states, to survive the disconnection from them.

California, New York, and Illinois collectively make up more than a quarter of the US GDP. California itself is 50% bigger than Texas
but those states together couldn't come up with the money for snap benefits during the shutdown. California is the worst. Yet, food banks ran out of food. They aren't so big after all.

C'mon, you know budgets don't work like that. SNAP is a federally-funded program to the tune of $100 billion annually. California's share is about $1 billion per month. If you didn't budget for it and the expected federal funds are cut off, you don't come up with a billion dollars on short notice.

I am sure that either China or Russia would provide the money with strings that will ensnare them in a debt that they will never be able to repay and take their free choice from them as well.

Very possibly. But America is being invaded from within. Federal judges for instance.

Countries cannot invade themselves, however people who live in countries can undermine the very existence of their country.

Jack it is obvious that you did not comprehend what I had written. It is also applicable to the Church.

"The church" is the problem. Just like in OT, God is going to clean house. We were warned. Blood will FLOW!

2 Corinthians 11:14-15
Satan himself transforms himself into an angel of light.
15 Therefore it is no great thing if his ministers also transform themselves into ministers of righteousness,

Yes, I comprehend.

What would happen? The other states would be in big trouble because the blue states carry the red states. They pay into the federal government a lot more than they take. The red states are a drain on resources and don't contribute nearly as much as blue states.

Then why did all the blue states holler so much, but the red states funded from reserves. You didn't hear the red states running out of Medicaid and snap. California screamed, so where are the budget reserves. Something is wrong with how the blue states allocate money. Look at New York, it used to be the richest state, now they elected a socialist to get free stuff. But who is going to pay for it

God is going to clean house!

As Germany went facist in the 1930s God did not clean house there and Germany was supposed to have been a Christian nation.

The reality was the majority of Germans followed false doctrine so they did not know the Lord, they just had false religious teachings and when most of them wanted hitler as their leader, God allowed them to reap what they sowed and have what they desired.

The US is seemingly on the verge of going socialist which islam can work within so since most "christians" in this nation are following false doctrine and don't actually know the Lord, the Lord isn't going to clean house here either and will allow the nation to go even darker than it already is.

If one state goes Sharia all the surrounding states will be terrified, and it will spread rapidly. I think UK is on the verge of collapsing.

Never underestimate the sleeping giant of America. We revolt when things go too far. Just look at the last election to get rid of men in girls sports and bathrooms, DEI, and schools. Watch and wait.

technically- no they can't! Nut Texas could because it is the only state accepted by a treaty.
Not anymore. When it was readmitted after the Civil War that nullified it. This was determined by the Supreme Court in 1888. Silly Texans, just looking for a fight, they could have left as their own Republic.
