    Should a politician or anybody display themselves as Christ

    Or Cyrus or Nebuchanezzar, whom God used.

    Should a politician or anybody display themselves as Christ

    Such lawfare will eventually be undone...when all the evidence becomes public.

    Should a politician or anybody display themselves as Christ

    Thanks for sharing. I do pray you will come to know that God is still good, and leave the door open if only a crack for those He legitimately sends for His own good purpose. pryw

    Should a politician or anybody display themselves as Christ

    God sacrificed His only Son to defeat evil. Every such action is tragic and death is the order from beginning to the end--but God will see to the people of every nation. If one weeps for them--that is understandable. But if one stands against what is against evil, as Peter was prepared to do to...

    Should a politician or anybody display themselves as Christ

    Indeed, the false mimic the true sent by God. And they are so good at it that things are not what they seem...of course it helps to own the media and the greater percent of Congress, Hollywood, the education system, etc. But they're almost finished--the gig is up. I suspect you won't be posting...

    Should a politician or anybody display themselves as Christ

    A hateful and uninformed commentary. A most common rhetoric lately.

    Symbolism

    Most of that is wrong. Where to begin! I am not going to cover it all--you can live with your suspicious mind. God's word is overflowing with meaning infinitely beyond the words--full of "higher spiritual meaning." You're just wrong and hold disdain in your heart for the idea that someone else...

    Should a politician or anybody display themselves as Christ

    That is a little but nice concession--thank you! I have made no secret of my relationship with God, my confession and testimony. In fact I have given my testimony here many times, and referred to it even more times. I understand the danger. But there is another danger also--that of...

    CONTEXT is King?

    Because of all that, the better way to consider communication from God is as parable language, which in simple terms is an effective teaching tool. The problems of interpretation then, come when we don't follow the parable logic of what is actually quite elementary, so much so that it is often...

    Should a politician or anybody display themselves as Christ

    Paul wrote of me, and John, and before them Daniel. But your idea of "If God is behind the message...He will prosper and emphasize it" is not always true and more likely not. More likely messages from God through those He sends is rejected, or not understood or taken to account, even for...

    CONTEXT is King?

    Yeah, sure, everything has and needs context. The point though, is just like Jesus asking "which is greater, the gold or the temple that sanctifies the gold?", is that God says what context is King, not someone's interpretation of the scriptures by their own understanding of what seems right...

    Is it ok for parents to use corporal punishment to discipline their children?

    It is a parents job to be that first brick wall--to say no and mean it, not for harm, but for love and protection. Because the next brick wall is not going to come from someone who loves them, whether it's someone bigger than them, a Police Officer, a Judge, or just life. Life lessons would be...

    Who, can Not Sin and Why?

    I missed this one. Picking up where we left off, regarding your replies 1-2-3 in order" Being "boastfully wrong about matters of God" (as I said) is not necessarily a loss of salvation. God is Judge. Which may include the fact that such a one was not saved in the first place. But for the saved...

    Who, can Not Sin and Why?

    Yes...and vice versa, "Christ in you." Amen!

    Should a politician or anybody display themselves as Christ

    Do you not understand that when God sends someone to declare or correct, it is because it is personal, but not by the one sent; and that personal judgements or attacks of any kind are not against the one sent, but against Him who has sent them? Read the Bible, for crying out loud!

    Should a politician or anybody display themselves as Christ

    Now who's judging? Let everyone judge then, whether this is what a Christian should say or not. This is what I said: "As for judging--you are judging fake and false fruit without all the information."

    Should a politician or anybody display themselves as Christ

    You are making accusation of me--that are false. If you have something to say--say it. But the moment you make it personal--I am not the person you are accusing. What I have said and do say, is not my opinion or read on things--I have offered none of that, and I won't--because I am sent by God...

    Should a politician or anybody display themselves as Christ

    I did address the hate issue. As for @Nancy, I agree. But many good people are getting caught up in the rhetoric and emotion of what is two sides to a spiritual war (not just one man of disagreeable character you don't like).

    Should a politician or anybody display themselves as Christ

    There is...compliments on your observation. Really! But things are not what they appear to be, and choosing to go along with one groups rhetoric or another, is so typical of many biblical events, there is no excuse. It is better to stand on the sidelines and say nothing, than joining the jeering...

    Should a politician or anybody display themselves as Christ

    If you don't see the hate coming at Trump...you have your head in the sand. And we who are aware of the good and the false witnessing are tired of that too. As for judging--you are judging fake and false fruit without all the information. Should we not point it out to you? According to God we...
