In the bible it's called being worldly. I'm seeing the present unrest with the whole fake racism thing as a cultural backlash with many believers getting caught up in it. There is no example from believers at all...taking sides and all. Kneeling before the devil and molly coddling terrorist...

Chariots of Fire Tron (the first one) The Matrix The Big Short (when taken to mean spiritual capital instead of money) The gospel of John

Exactly. And that sin is the most prevalent one in the church today (albeit at a much lower level). Wanting to be identified with the "saved" but yet living as regular sinners. There was a special status for saints back in the day. But today no one is a saint...because everyone is already seen...

That's false of course. What's the point of pretending to sell all if it doesn't matter if you do or not? They INDEED wanted to appear more spiritual...but without paying the cost. They wanted to be seen as saints...among the saints. Whether people can see it or not there is a standard of...

I don't know anything about taking an oath.

No I used to be in the reserves only...never joined the reg force. And that was many years ago. I quit when I realized that didn't believe in killing other humans. I grew up in army culture...my dad was a career soldier and I grew up on army bases.

The great hatred. It was prophesied in Hosea for such times as these.

LOL Too true. Yet people who are proud will say you are just trying to act superior. I guess we are to always get the answers wrong...in order to appear humble to people for whom truth is a mere opinion.

Far right: Nazism. Extreme tribalism: hatred for enemies Far left: Communism. Extreme tribalism: hatred for enemies.

Nothing is evil of itself. It's not the having of something that is evil...it is the love of it. Money itself is not evil. But the love of money is the root of much evil. Sin comes from within a person. So you are making no distinction between using something...for God...or lusting after...

Actually this is a Hebrew enigma...as so many things are in the bible. The word for north..is TSAFON. The word for "hidden" is TSAFOON. So it is just one more play on words. In the Hebrew bible both words are written identically. It is only the pronunciation that is different. And that is by...

Jesus actually offended people by saying they should go FARTHER than what they are asked to when being exploited by the Romans to carry their equipment for them the one requisite mile. To walk an extra mile. Man, that is SO unlike Western culture. It is impossible for any cultural Christian to...

I fear you are also speaking here as a cultural Christian. You are missing the larger point to make a smaller one. We ARE to be neutral UNTIL we are prompted by the Holy Spirit to act. Jesus said..I ONLY do what I see My Father doing. To be led by the Holy Spirit is the minimum standard of the...

American culture. Sure they may be racist. But so are you. I don't get involved with taking sides. I'm neutral. I'm a human being with all other human beings. Every race is my race. Every country is my country. I'm non-partisan. You should try it. God provides for me and my family. We are...

I know you won't get this...but this is a public forum. :) So for they who are weak in faith... While we pay taxes to the government a follower of Christ will never pledge allegiance to it. Our fight is spiritual not carnal. We use prayers and spiritual force not carnal guns and bombs. The...

To the carnal mind, spiritual things are foolishness. As in..to be born again do I have to enter back into my mother's womb? And for some good examples of this lack of understanding on your part...well anything you say, really. Trying to answer your questions would be like explaining colours to...

Agreed! We are to seek the Lord not worldly power. But every now and again God may choose to use of of His servants to bring balance and order to a society...in the way that the devil does...

It's pleasant to hear from someone who isn't a carnal religious person. :)

Are business crafted to divide and rule people through the power of the air? Do you have ANY discernment at all beyond the carnal senses? You will always defend the most carnal position possible. Why? To be the devil's advocate? Or is it because you have no idea what the kingdom of God is? Of...

If it quacks like a duck...
