    Trump using the Bible as a prop...

    PW, indeed, a Christian forum is no place for hate speech, but everyone that hangs out on this forum is not a Christian. Their unbridled hate is a transparent giveaway.

    Trump using the Bible as a prop...

    Rita, I cannot fathom why you regard holding up a Bible as being so offensive! A central aspect of American culture is holding up the American flag and declaring "I pledge allegiance to the Flag of the United States of America and to the Republic for which it stands, one nation, indivisible...

    Trump using the Bible as a prop...

    All this verbiage could have simply been summarized by you simply declaring "I hate Trump!" Not a Christian ethic, but apparently an ethic promoted by your god.

    Trump using the Bible as a prop...

    Sound as if you are a good and faithful servant of the god you worship. A god who hates the one God appointed to rule over America, and will do everything within his power to destroy God's Anointed One. But then there is the True God, who is sometimes mentioned on this forum, and He says: “Do...

    Trump using the Bible as a prop...

    Calling President Trump a serial liar says a whole lot more about you than it says about him!

    You have bought into a pack of lies. I admire Trump for what he did.

    The Breath of Life

    I have never separated the two as separate ideas. The breath and spirit [of God] are one and the same entity: Holy Spirit' is 'Ha Ruach Ha Kodesh. ... The Spirit or 'ruach' by itself, is the breath of Yahweh which carries His life-force, but not necessarily the Presence of His Person., "Ruach"...

    The Breath of Life

    Another weird "translation". The correct translation is: "Your eyes have seen my unformed substance; And in Your book were all written The days that were ordained for me, When as yet there was not one of them."

    The Breath of Life

    Okay. Duly noted. FN says: "Or with many mss how the spirit enters the bones in the womb" So I checked 50 "translations", and 7 record your version: ESV AMPC TLB NOG NABRE RSVCE TLV "As you do not know the way the spirit comes to the bones in the womb of a woman with child, so you do not...

    The Breath of Life

    Wow! James, I don't know what translation you are using, but in checking a number of translations, I can find nothing vaguely approximating what you have 'quoted'. So I go to the NASB, which is considered by scholars to be the gold standard in literal translation of the original, and it says...

    The Breath of Life

    No big deal! He knew us all, those whom "He chose us in Him before the foundation of the world . . ." Ephesians 1:4 Simply, He knew everything that would happen before the foundation of the world. He knew who would be born and who wouldn't.

    A solution to the race problem on the force.

    That would only mean systemic racism within the police department! It is not a system that's going to work, since 46% of crimes committed in America are committed by blacks, who only constitute a mere 13% of American society. Criminal activity is merely part of black culture, like the guy who...

    The Breath of Life

    The fact that the fetus "leaped" doesn't indicate anything significant. That's just a normal part of fetal development. In later months, fetuses move and kick about 30 times per hour. In this instance, the fetus was merely startled, reacting to the loud and boisterous sound of Mary greeting...

    The Breath of Life

    You seem to have entirely ignored the references I provided in my posting #3, but in addition to those here is a longer version: Ezekiel's prophecy regarding the resurrection of the Valley of Dry Bones: "3 He said to me, “Son of man, can these bones live?” And I answered, “O Lord God, You...

    About Dairy !

    Grams, I pray that everything goes well with your new venture.

    God gives Power to become Rich. Gain Riches, Wealth. and Success.

    No! I am of the opinion that He gives wealth to those who really have no interest in money. Just a job to be done.

    God gives Power to become Rich. Gain Riches, Wealth. and Success.

    Indeed. While I have great wealth, when reviewing my financial statements, I have often sighed "How meaningless!!" I couldn't think of a single thing I would want to buy.

    About Dairy !

    I have been reading about a new kind of milk called A1, that contains genetically different proteins that overcome some of the problems experienced by those who are allergic to regular milk. This new milk is derived from a specifically genetically herd of cows. Like you, I start every day with...

    God gives Power to become Rich. Gain Riches, Wealth. and Success.

    No big deal, but maybe I am gullible, but God commands us to train up a child in the way he should go, and if we do that God promises "Train up a child in the way he should go: and when he is old, he will not depart from it." Proverbs 22:6 His Word will be my guide.

    God gives Power to become Rich. Gain Riches, Wealth. and Success.

    So . . . that merely means that there are a bunch of sickos out there, with totally dysfunctional families. As for me and my family, I have never considered my wealth, my own, but that which has been entrusted to me by God to be properly managed, and then that trust passed on my kids and their...
