    If Trump goes to prison from the hush money case.... DO that knock him out of the running?

    Chief of Staff is more important than the VP Kamala at the moment...so is Yellen. Sec DEF is also calling the foreign policy shots ATM too. Together they are causing quite a bit of a problem....Biden really is not leading....there's no independent thinking going on between his ears as the man...

    Ukraine may actually win their war.

    If Ukraine surrenders.... Russia will slaughter all those who remain able to fight and enslave those who aren't. (They have promised that...it's not a secret) Is that acceptable to you? There's a reason why both Poland and France are gearing up for a full blown conventional war. It's not...

    Why do the wise virgins not share their oil with the foolish virgins?

    I wasn't saying you were wrong... Just that NO ONE has perfect theology...(including me and you) And that lesson is a perfect contrast with the virgins and oil parable.

    If Trump goes to prison from the hush money case.... DO that knock him out of the running?

    I tend to think that there is not anyone that doesn't recognize this political theater for what it really is at the moment. No one believes the charges. And if somehow Trump was thrown in jail...it literally would cause another civil war. The Democrat party would be over because America...

    Why do the wise virgins not share their oil with the foolish virgins?

    Pearls come from an unclean animal....and the value of which is from a marketplace that is absolutely full of scams and conartists. Just saying....

    Why do the wise virgins not share their oil with the foolish virgins?

    Nope. The oil symbolizes the Holy Spirit we have given to us on deposit....as Paul told Timothy to guard. (It burns to make light) You can't give the Holy Spirit within you to another person... The telling of them "to go buy some" was extreme sarcasm...as if that was going to work. But in...

    Ukraine may actually win their war.

    I don't think you understand the result of him doing that. It literally will be genocide. Russia has no problem committing genocide....their RECENT history demonstrates this quite clearly. Nor does Russia have any problem with slavery....from child sex trafficking to chains and working people...

    Ukraine may actually win their war.

    Russia has also lost most of their seasoned leaders. This is important. How stuff gets done in the American mitary is due to seasoned "middle management". They know how to get supplies, materials and equipment in location to accomplish tasks. Otherwise you get a whole bunch of "not...

    Ukraine may actually win their war.

    I've been watching this conflict. Zelensky and his generals have been excellent at executing asymmetrical warfare. When his last armed forces chief listened to American advisors they lost massive amounts of troops. (Dumb) The Ukrainian use of drones has shaped the battlefield in ways...

    Why every Christian has to stand before Judgement

    I did listen and read and understood what you said btw.... Explain in detail what Stephen said....either his statement was a lie or it was the truth. And either scripture is wrong or you are wrong. I'm gonna go with scripture. YMMV.

    Stores closing in the cities due to lawlessness.

    Sell them off....usually institutional REITS buy them and rent them out. They are retail space. Usually good for another boutique of some sort....possibly foodservice depending. Maybe a convenience store or pawn shop. Usually, if you can get it, a former Walgreens is a great location for a...

    Why every Christian has to stand before Judgement

    So explain what Stephen said during his stoning and then what Jesus said to the elders and leaders before being Crucified.

    Why every Christian has to stand before Judgement

    Well, Let me just say this.... I (or you) will know how things are going to go by looking at Jesus. Is He standing or sitting? If He is standing to honor your arrival....you are in like Flynn. Dance and sing all you like. If He is sitting at the right hand of God the Father (your left)...

    They BELIEVE for a while, and in time of testing FALL AWAY

    So.... It's a question of what type of soil you are made of obviously. What do you have within you? Weed seed? Hard at the heart with too many rocks? Or rich soil that has been judiciously waiting for good news to pour yourself into with great passion?

    Is “Easter” in the original Scriptures?

    Then why are you regularly using Jesus's Latin name? Then there's God's Latin name you keep using as well.... Just like currency is a medium of exchanging value....language is used to convey thoughts. I can use the name Kep.has or Peter....and you know whom I am speaking of. Are you trying...

    National Oil Reserve

    Fast food chains are working on that. So are food suppliers. AI isn't necessary for fast food chains...just a series of robotics and accountants. But essentially what is coming is just a kiosk and a window. No more people except to reload the freezers and coolers. What the holdup is...

    National Oil Reserve

    Biden is trying to control the world economy. It's failing. He wants to slow our economy because of inflation...higher energy prices will do that. We will be paying for the Federal Reserve's "free money" policy for a while....ten years at a guess. And with AI...probably for a while. AI...

    National Oil Reserve

    I guess he should have not stopped allowing exports of oil and natural gas...he could have afforded it then.

    Is “Easter” in the original Scriptures?

    Easter is the Latin name for Passover...that's how it matters. You can't change the word definition just to suit what you want it to mean....language doesn't work like that especially in a dead language like Latin. Noel's meaning hasn't changed in a few hundred years either...no matter how...

    Please describe yourself, regarding eschatology

    I'm trying to figure out how this matters. Still scratching my head over it. What I believe is relevant only to me....not Bubba or my Brother Darrell or my other Brother Darrell. Haven't seen anyone's eschatology match mine yet...so I don't think it's classifiable with labels or...
