So much for "keeping it in the bedroom"

The real depopulation bomb is going to go off when Wormwood hits.

Also: John 9 9 And as Jesus passed by, he saw a man which was blind from his birth. 2 And his disciples asked him, saying, Master, who did sin, this man, or his parents, that he was born blind? 3 Jesus answered, Neither hath this man sinned, nor his parents: but that the works of God should...

2 Corinthians 12 7 And lest I should be exalted above measure through the abundance of the revelations, there was given to me a thorn in the flesh, the messenger of Satan to buffet me, lest I should be exalted above measure. 8 For this thing I besought the Lord thrice, that it might depart from...

May God be with each of them and help them through their difficult times and show them peace and comfort and mercy in abundance, amen.

Seems like that is what the neoliberals are doing already: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Apotheosis_of_Washington Apotheosis (Encyclopedia Britannica): apotheosis, elevation to the status of a god. The term (from Greek apotheoun, “to make a god,” “to deify”) I hate being drawn into this...

Wisdom is something that is gained by working for it. That is, by doing the right thing, by sacrificing yourself for others, giving your sweat and blood. Mankind was put on this earth to toil, and by toiling we find redemption. Another way of looking at holiness is the relationship between toil...

Quick note that socialism and communism are not synonymous. There are many schools of socialism which are not Marxist in nature and that predate Marx.

The Man of Sin is you. You're the one who struggles against God. Prove me wrong, ascend to heaven right now. Protip: you can't.

The question - "how are miracles performed?", has a very obvious answer - God does it whenever He chooses an appropriate time, and I don't dispute that miracles are ultimately by God's will; but with humans as the intermediary, what role does an individual play in the unfolding of the miracle...

The way I look at Biblical Israel - and I believe in reincarnation, so feel free to disagree - is that it was a special kingdom, created for souls that chose to be born into it, in order to live as holy a life as possible and ascend to Heaven; so it had very strict laws regarding morality. Some...

Does the Bible say that they stayed in the manger for the next week? I'll have to do some reading, but I had always been under the impression that the manger was just the site of the delivery, not a dedicated lodging.

I don't know if this applies to ancient Judea, but at least in much of the ancient world, it was customary to take in a traveller if they were of the same people and social status as you (or higher status). For this reason, inns were never a first choice for travellers (and most places wouldn't...

I am wondering just what you're going to do with the sacred oil. It's forbidden to put it on any person's skin, or to perfume your house with it. It's only supposed to be used for the temple (which was destroyed), and, if I recall, by God's prophets when specifically instructed to, to annoint...

God be with him John 15:18 If the world hate you, ye know that it hated me before it hated you.

I don't think someone deserves to be hated for being sad and lonely, but rather that one should be sympathied with for it, yet if one is causing their own loneliness it would be better to bring them to see what is causing them to suffer, without casting shame on them. It would be hypocritical to...

A very good question. Jesus said: Matthew 5:18 For verily I say unto you, Till heaven and earth pass, one jot or one tittle shall in no wise pass from the law, till all be fulfilled. BUT, Paul said: Galatians 3 10 For as many as are of the works of the law are under the curse: for it is...

A reminder to be gentle in your admonishments, Good Ship deserves love just as much as everyone else.

Where do you hear this nonsense?

God doesn't force anyone, God mentors. So tell me, if two people get into an argument, is the winner of the argument the one who throws his opponent in prison? Or is it the one who convinces his enemy of his wrongfulness? So God could cause a murderer to suffer eternally, but why? God could...
