    @mjrhealth The Church The church is the community of believers who confess Jesus Christ as Lord and Saviour. In continuity with the people of God in Old Testament times, we are called out from the world; and we join together for worship, for fellowship, for instruction in the Word, for the...

    So much for not getting into "that."

    @mjrhealth Nothing about that here: The Church The church is the community of believers who confess Jesus Christ as Lord and Saviour. In continuity with the people of God in Old Testament times, we are called out from the world; and we join together for worship, for fellowship, for instruction...

    Presidential Election Live Coverage 2020

    U.S. President Donald Trump has begun the process of moving his possessions from the White House to Mar-a-Lago, with trucks seen arriving at his holiday resort in Florida ahead of his last day in the Oval Office. Donald Trump's Mar-a-Lago Move in Progress As Trucks Arrive Carrying His...

    Genesis 2:16-17 & Genesis 3:22

    My thoughts are simple. What might be considered good knowledge for God, might not be so good for man. Especially since, although we are made in the image of God (and who knows exactly what that means?), we were not made gods.

    Genesis 2:16-17 & Genesis 3:22

    But what you say afterward indicates that you concluded there, in fact, was more to the text. What's the difference? What's your next mind-numbing argument-for-argument's-sake? I'd remind you at this point that I've reviewed a good portion of your posting history. In 99% of cases, you seem...

    Christian Patriotism - How Far Is Too Far?

    You can suppose any kind of straw man you like. :) Searching the Bible for Proof texts that contain the word "govern," eh? That kind of thing can backfire. Didn't you say things were different after Calvary in this regard? Btw, If you're going to argue with yourself, what do you need with a...

    Christian Patriotism - How Far Is Too Far?

    The records of Egypt and Assyria testify precisely to these same things. And at that time, also, there was no State. There was society. There came a time, however, when even this lingering knowledge of God as king and the only rightful ruler, was cut off; and the man himself assumed the full...

    Christian Patriotism - How Far Is Too Far?

    The Origin of the State It is certain that if the two greatest of all the commandments had always been observed by all men, there never could have been a State on the earth. There would have been society, but no State. The government would have been altogether the government of God; He, the...

    Why can't he see that certain elements of his speech are inflammatory to extremists? He could have taken credit for every legitimate thing he has accomplished without the "our cause" comments. His behavior is just inexcusable at this point. It's like he's determined to incite violence and...

    Christian Patriotism - How Far Is Too Far?

    I think what is being suggested is that "the powers ordained of God" and "the government of God's kingdom" should perhaps not be conflated. :)

    Christian Patriotism - How Far Is Too Far?

    I gotta say this is exactly where I'm coming from. John 18:36

    Christian Patriotism - How Far Is Too Far?

    It's clear that you do not interpret that passage as do many other Bible students.

    Do You Believe In The Right to Bear Arms?

    Whew! You had me worried. I thought maybe the dems took them from you. :D

    Do you have all the guns you can afford and want?

    Don't Worry, Trumpy's Got This

    I didn't see the Capitol invasion coming. I fear for the souls in Washington, D.C. for whom Christ also died.

    Don't Worry, Trumpy's Got This

    It will be worse than that. And he had power to give life unto the image of the beast, that the image of the beast should both speak, and cause that as many as would not worship the image of the beast should be killed. (Revelation 13:15)

    Don't Worry, Trumpy's Got This

    You know, it just occurred to me. The electing of 4 (2 of which were double-term) Republican presidents has not made a bit of difference in the abortion policy of the U.S. for 48 years now.
