    The debate... Trump and Harris

    They don't. Most of the time the court room is cleared out for these situations...because so few actually can get ahold of themselves. You should ask a lawyer how child custody hearings really go.

    The debate... Trump and Harris

    Her "You see Timmy" moments were cut straight out of Lassie reruns. Completely unbelievable except by complete simps. One second she is looking disgusted and hateful towards Trump and calling him every name in the book but then goes all sweetly pleading with all kinds of heart and empathy for...

    The debate... Trump and Harris

    The real truth is that partisans will see their candidate as winning. The debate is for undecided voters...people who are not political or care. Don't listen to the news so much. And very suspicious of anything they hear. So because they are indecisive to begin with the snap polls are...

    some shepherds are not qualified to teach Gods word.

    Not qualified. I hate this sort of garbage in church. Mine doesn't do this currently. I don't believe it will. https://x.com/i/status/1834419188749738241

    Being wise in the last days, prepared for the problems we are facing today...

    Not disagreeing. I re reviewed... Pure water from distilling is of course great. Expensive but good. Reverse osmosis Is another good method for many contaminants. Not as good but for large quantities I looked at the headline of the thread and thought something. Sorry....my bad...

    Being wise in the last days, prepared for the problems we are facing today...

    Not saying that this is bad information.... But to what end? I'd love to collect my reward in Heaven. Unfortunately I am needed here...I have tasks to do until I don't. Going out in the first or second wave would be a blessing by comparison to the very difficult life after a nuclear...

    Can you be priest without believing in god or taking the bible seriously?

    Just as a point of relative truth.... A person who studied at university about Medieval French Poetry is considered to be a wasted degree certification....the same can be considered as true for someone specializing in 5,700 year old Hebrew poetry. People enjoy hearing what they wish to hear...

    Is the story of Adam & Eve a parable?

    Genesis 1 &2 is a type of Hebrew poetry. Parallelism. They are two telling of the same story. One reflects the Akadian Ugarituc and the other more Egyptian .... Both had written languages. Ugarituc was cuneiform and the Egyptian was pictographs. Hebrew is a metaphoric and verb based...

    Why was "the Tree" placed in the center of the garden (orchard)

    Just like those who hold their doctorates in Medieval French Poetry.... Those who study 5,700 year old Hebrew poetry aren't much fun at parties either. Just saying.....

    Do you have to repent if you are "led by the spirit"

    Meaning he understands nothing about the Gospel message or its importance. It's blasphemy of the Holy Spirit... He literally does not care about God, only his position in the church. He doesn't care about the church either. He would rather it be destroyed so long as he gets to be a...

    What becomes of our faith if the Genesis account is NOT literal?

    In today's Westernized, Post-modern society people read a "translated" selection of Genesis written 5700+ years ago and because they don't recognize the writing style of the poetry they want to assume it's all fiction. That would be yet another mistake. Hebrew poetry constitutes between...

    Did Moses Write Deuteronomy?

    A disciple AKA Telmuhdeme or even a messenger was regularly ignored in Hebrew literature. It's obvious that one was used and therefore unwritten because paper, ink, and pens were exorbitantly expensive and the reader could logically deduce it from what was written. In this case the likely...

    Justified by Works

    The point is 2Peter 1 Verse 3 right there tells us plainly we have been saved by grace. No wiggle room. God's goodness is his grace. "But wait there's more" There's available knowledge and tools for us to use provided by God....because God is good.

    What reason do people say you have to have faith in the bible?

    Because Jesus became one of us.... Experienced what it was like to be one of us.... Understands our failings, trials, and troubles... He has used his power to ensure we have a Bible to this day. God is omnipotent and omniscient. Meaning only God himself could have e preserved his words to...

    Justified by Works

    Which book was written first? That right there should tell you more than enough. 2Peter 1: 3 His divine power has given us everything we need for a godly life through our knowledge of him who called us by his own glory and goodness. 4 Through these he has given us his very great and precious...

    What books are you currently reading?

    I just finished first round rough draft/outline of a book and it's off to the editor at the moment. The first round at the editor is rough....you feel like someone is cutting away portions of your soul and then expected to grow portions back in directions you never knew were missing. I...

    Russian Television and Tenet Media

    This is some disgusting stuff. It has been a stalwart of Russian propaganda for a while. These Americans knew what they were doing and didn't care. They just wanted the money. https://x.com/RyanMcbeth/status/1831667763854578097

    K Harris announces will use tax dollars to pay reparations to black people

    The most valuable tools and opportunities of American society were offered without cost....and snubbed. With those tools a person can achieve money and power. Not just an equal standing but superior. But they are routinely snubbed. The work required to use them appropriately and wisely...

    Overcome what? All the preferential treatment?
