    A bit of a mess in the White House.

    Being in the world but not of it, is another way of saying it, I think brother. That doesn't mean to go and be a hermit on a mountaintop, of course we have to interact with this world, while not being unequally yoked with it. Which to me means not being joined/united spiritually with it, at...

    A bit of a mess in the White House.

    If you want or need to renegotiate trade deals you have every right to do that I"m sure....but there is no need to be belligerent about it. Doesn't seem wise to make enemies out of your own allies, especially in times like these. I don't understand all the ins and outs of the tariffs, but I...

    A bit of a mess in the White House.

    Forgot to mention......Christians in secular jobs (which includes politics) can take Daniel in Babylon and Joseph in Egypt as examples of Godliness in those worldly spheres. And whatsoever you do, do it as unto the Lord.

    A bit of a mess in the White House.

    It means being unequally yoked. What does HOLY mean to you my dear brother? It means to be set apart, separate.......ie, not unequally yoked. Being unequally yoked is a mixture, which God hates, and renders the holy unclean. Mixture = unclean. 2Co 6:14-17 Be ye not unequally yoked together...

    Do we still need a "church"?

    Maybe you could be the host providing the space and hospitality, while others could lead and facilitate the meetings? Others can also contribute to practical necessities like chairs as well.

    A bit of a mess in the White House.

    So right sister, I hear you. Expect they will be trying to round up all us "obstructionists" who aren't bowing, and throw us in jail or worse pretty soon. That's how the WORLD rolls.

    A bit of a mess in the White House.

    You've got it backwards. The church is being distracted from its mission and mandate by these earthly fears and concerns. Happen to agree on these issues in principle.....just my opinion for what it's worth. I think some people are seeing dangers and pitfalls that you are just blind to.

    A bit of a mess in the White House.

    Yes right. That's why I generally vote Conservative and why I agree with most of your Republican policies in principle at least. You are not getting what I and others have been saying at all. No ears to hear I assume. That's ok, those who know the Lord and follow Him understand. I would...

    A bit of a mess in the White House.

    It's how you are coming across. I'm not leftist, and I would much rather see honesty and integrity in government and wise and sensible policies rather than destructive ones. That is such a rare thing in all of mankind's sad and often horrible history. The last couple of generations has had...

    A bit of a mess in the White House.

    The point is that it's the job of earthly governments to deal with such things, not the body of CHRIST. HIS kingdom, to which we belong, is not of this world.

    A bit of a mess in the White House.

    Just expressing what I have to say the same as everyone. And I've been trying to talk about deeper things than whether anyone has "wrongly" selected their political leader or not. The issue is about the heart, what our hearts are invested in and trusting in, not politics per se. Unless that...

    Never seen you act this way before brother. Snarky and sarcastic and defensive.

    A bit of a mess in the White House.

    Amen, so very true brother. Sadly it doesn't look like many are believing God, His word, these days.

    A bit of a mess in the White House.

    It's based on simple observation. We in Canada have somehow mysteriously just ended up with a new Liberal Prime Minister who identifies as European and has lived and worked over in Europe up until recently and there has already been talk and hints about joining the EU because of the tariffs...

    A bit of a mess in the White House.

    I'm not knowledgeable about the subject of tariffs etc, But unfortunately there is a downside to this. Part of it might be "good" for your nation, but part of it could turn out to be "evil". This tariff war is potentially pushing the nation on your northern border into the arms of the...

    A bit of a mess in the White House.

    This topic is the only one I can remember seeing you get so upset and angry about brother. I hope you will truly examine why you are so much in the flesh about this. By your words, it doesn't seem as though you're considering that God is ruling & reining in this world, but you are setting...

    A bit of a mess in the White House.

    I'd be interested to know where/how you believe God figures in with regard to all this. Do you believe America and the west are going to be "great" again anytime soon with the level of apostasy and sins we have going on now? I dont' mean everyone should just fold their hands and not try to...

    A bit of a mess in the White House.

    I don't think one way or the other. I wasn't talking about you in my post.....it wasn't aimed at any specific individual.

    A bit of a mess in the White House.

    Amen. Like some tell people to just open your mouth and babble until you are speaking in tongues. or "Just say a little prayer" and welcome to the club....as if God and His Spirit don't need to be involved in these things in a real way. Yes I think he is being deceived by those false sold...

    Amen to that scripture sister, and amen to Amigo's post, I missed seeing it somehow, and it's so very true.
