    Is the nation of Israel really of the devil, fooling Christians?

    I'm still not 100% certain of this but from what I understand WE are who Christ is coming back to save. The Jews rejected Christ so now we are His people.

    Is the nation of Israel really of the devil, fooling Christians?

    No. I was where you are so I understand why you support and defend Trump. I am not on the side of the Fascists and Communists either. What happened was that God allowed my eyes to be opened to the deceit that is being perpetrated upon Christians. I realize that I could be wrong, but at this...

    When God lets you down

    I've known a number of people who were older who switched gears. My friends husband was let go and he's in his 60's. He immediately applied to teach at Christian school and was hired. I thought they'd be biased against older workers but apparently not.

    When God lets you down

    Oh I grasp it. I've been in bad jobs before that I had to leave. I hope that you can find a way to leave your current job - it affects your entire life when you're in a toxic job situation as you described. I experienced something similar. It was a nasty work environment. The boss also asked...

    That's a beautiful song! Thank you for sharing it. The words are really powerful.

    Weren't there some controversies surrounding Watchman Nee? What are mystic Christians?

    When God lets you down

    I read about Corrie ten Boom and all it did was upset me. I read about Joni and that upset me. I don't like to suffer but I also don't like to see others suffer. One of my family members worked for the medical examiners office and had to go to death scenes and told of some of the horrible...

    When God lets you down

    Like Nancy said I can see that you have a sweet and sensitive spirit that is very rare and beautiful to come across. You remind me of one of my own children. I will tell you that I'm a science fan - I read a lot about health. I experienced bouts of depression before and came across research...

    That's so encouraging. I'm glad we were able to be of some comfort.

    I did wonder if fire ants were a menace but didn't ask! The ticks are so disgusting that I guess I thought nothing could be worse!

    When God lets you down

    OMG my dad used to tell us about listening to The Shadow! I had actually purchased some of the CD's and gave them to a family member one year. I remember the Lone Ranger and "Hi-O-Silver." Didn't he have a friend named "Tonto" or something?

    When God lets you down

    Thank you very much for your encouraging words Nancy. I think I've been through the mill - as in Psalm 66: "You let men ride over our heads..." but how can we measure our hardships against others? But I think of the following song and I think I came through great sorrow: God leads His...

    When God lets you down

    I don't know for sure if I have the gift of discernment - as Helen said, we all have it. But just between my husband and I, I am usually the first to pick up on what somebody is about. He didn't listen to me one time about someone I sensed was untrustworthy - a "Christian" - and we were...

    When God lets you down

    It's hard to get to that place of giving up when you see evil have its day and saying "okay God - You know this and I don't" and let go. I am such a proactive person it's hard for me to sit back. But God must have me in school for a reason. I have gotten to the place of looking at it that God...

    When God lets you down

    I think one of your gifts is the gift of mercy. You have a way of encouraging people and your love for others comes through. You could also have the gift of discernment as I believe we may have several gifts. That's a shame that a pastor would do that. He may have been squelching something...

    When God lets you down

    You sound like a fellow nature lover. I love being outdoors and everything about nature - I think that somehow brings you close to God. My husband and I rented a place very close to the beach one time and I recall falling asleep to the sound of the surf - it was very peaceful. I loved getting...

    We're inundated with ticks - a lot of people around us have Lyme's. Our dog had it. I wonder why someone never thought to bring in fire ants as a natural predator.

    When God lets you down

    There are many different kinds of suffering - yes physical suffering is bad but who is to say what is worse? There were times during my ordeal that I begged God that He not let me wake up. But He did and I fought through another day. I was glad He never answered me because I was greatly blessed...

    See you Willie. I really appreciate you keeping the peace.

    Yes I know that some Christians believe that he is doing right by them. God reveals truths to His people at different times and we have to let Him reveal what He will in His own time: whatever that truth may be.
