    Should we as Christians support the State of Israel ?

    Nobody is here to stay. Life is short. And this world also has an expiry date, known only to the Father. Psa 102:25-26 Of old hast thou laid the foundation of the earth: and the heavens are the work of thy hands. They shall perish, but thou shalt endure: yea, all of them shall wax old like...

    Should we as Christians support the State of Israel ?

    How about I try to put it this way. One can agree with certain policies a politician has, without endorsing the politician himself. Like one can agree with some doctrines a particular church teaches, without endorsing or recommending that church itself because of other problems the church has...

    Should we as Christians support the State of Israel ?

    I believe you about him having that kind of spirit. I listened to a good chunk of that interview you linked....enough to get the idea (4 hours is too long for me to listen to the whole thing). But I think you are not understanding what I'm saying....wish I could explain it better.....I'm not...

    Should we as Christians support the State of Israel ?

    Hitler did a lot of good for his country (at least until the war) and was adored by many. But he clearly wasn't a good man. It would be a good thing if the Iranian regime gets toppled with this war, for the Iranian people and the Middle East situation in general, but that wouldn't mean Trump...

    Should we as Christians support the State of Israel ?

    I believe Trump was in up to his neck with Epstein until they had a disagreement and weren't friends any more. Just how far he went with it and participated in it all, I personally do not know.....you may have more specific information than me. And I don't believe every word he says....I find...

    Should we as Christians support the State of Israel ?

    We can't judge by outward appearance. Jesus on the cross appeared to have been defeated, but the opposite was true. And just because He may use/allow a pagan nation to judge and chastise His people/nation it wouldn't mean for one second that their pagan gods are greater than the Lord. The...

    Should we as Christians support the State of Israel ?

    Cyrus was pagan. He didn't "know" the Lord (Is. 45:4). Trump administration policies in a general way seem to be common sense and conservative, to my knowledge. But I agree with you, how some of them get carried out seems ham-fisted and pushing the envelope though, from what I can see...

    Should we as Christians support the State of Israel ?

    Yes....... a lot of very shady things going on. And it's easy to see how most of the women Trump appoints and hangs around with just happen to be attractive looking. While I agree with his political policies in principle, there are things I don't agree with in how he is carrying out some of...

    Should we as Christians support the State of Israel ?

    He only told His closest disciples to buy a sword, those who were accompanying Him to Gethsemane. And I believe it was meant to only be a deterrent so they wouldn't get scooped up along with Him.....because when Peter actually used the sword, how did Jesus respond? Clearly we are instructed in...

    Should we as Christians support the State of Israel ?

    God's ways are not man's ways. And His ways are foolishness to the wisdom of man. Jesus said those who live by the sword will die by the sword. What does God's word say about the kingdoms of this world........since they are ruled by the god and prince of this world, Satan? But Satan's...

    Should we as Christians support the State of Israel ?

    Captives of the devil and deceived by him. Only in Jesus is that captivity led captive by Him.

    Should we as Christians support the State of Israel ?

    Sister, I have no way to either verify or discount all the particulars, but just want to say I wouldn't be surprised if something like this was the case with Paula White (and she has talked some about being abused as a child). I wondered the same about Charlie Kirk's widow as well. It is not...

    Should we as Christians support the State of Israel ?

    The "Israel of God", which includes grafted-in, believing Gentiles.........all those whom God has foreknown.....this is not talking about all "Israel after the flesh".

    Should we as Christians support the State of Israel ?

    Jesus said what does it profit a person to gain the whole world but lose their own soul. That is exactly what Satan tempted Him with in the wilderness if He would bow down and worship him. And this is also what many so-called elites do today and why. Luciferians, Cult of Baal, etc. They...

    Should we as Christians support the State of Israel ?

    We're to consider that Jesus came through faithful believing Jews (called, chosen and faithful) - as well as some faithful believing Gentiles in His lineage (Ruth)......not so much from those who were Jews/Hebrews in name only. He is a Jew who is one inwardly. Nevertheless the whole nation of...

    If Christian Universalism is true, what's the point in evangelism?

    The Holy Spirit causing any person or devil to confess who Christ is, does not necessarily mean they are saved. Just like the Holy Spirit forcing demons out of hiding and into the light (manifesting) doesn't mean they are saved. And only the Holy Spirit can lead us into all truth....the carnal...

    If Christian Universalism is true, what's the point in evangelism?

    Regarding Phil 2:9 verse......we need to "hear what the Spirit is saying", because God's word is a spiritual word. Even the demons confess who Jesus is but they are not saved.........even the devil believes and trembles but he is not saved. And they do also bend the knee at the name of Jesus ...

    If Christian Universalism is true, what's the point in evangelism?

    The heart is deceitfully wicked, that's why.. And just look around and see that humans do not always seek to better their situation....many are self-destructive. It takes an act of God's grace and power to convert a soul.

    Death Penalty: All in Favor? All Opposed?

    The gospel is never irrelevant. And it has spin-off benefits in the world. Men will do what men will do, but we are to follow Jesus, His example and His word. And He did not demonstrate or instruct His church to go and change the world, but to go and make disciples. We are not called to...

    Trump and Politics

    1Jo 2:22-24 Who is a liar but he that denieth that Jesus is the Christ? He is antichrist, that denieth the Father and the Son. Whosoever denieth the Son, the same hath not the Father: (but) he that acknowledgeth the Son hath the Father also. Let that therefore abide in you, which ye have...
