    You are looking in the wrong direction to cast your blame for all the angst you witness mounting up against you. The "socialist-communist-anti-Christian-anti-American-Democrat led" rebellion against the church and all things American is an illusion. Yes, America is being attacked. Yes, the...

    Should BLM Be Taught In Schools?

    I see you included history. I would suggest that revisionist history lessons and being deprived of true history and taught distorted history...both in context of Biblical history...church history...and national history and combinations thereof (and which can be applied to numerous nations...

    Thou Shall Not Covet?

    Coveting and lust are the same. Jesus said to lust after another is adultery. Just the desire makes you guilty of the act, whether the opportunity came to commit that act...whether you did act...or not. Your neighbors goods, whether its his car or prize rose, or his wife/husband. No difference...

    Was Adam Imparted Free Will From The Beginning Of Creation?

    Yes. Which presupposes his choice not to. Just as we today have a choice not to commit adultery. A commandment does not assume an inability to obey it. The very fact Adam disobeyed proves his independence and his own will super-ceding the will of God. Unless of course you attempt to suggest...

    There Remains No Sacrifice For Sins

    The entire OT Hebrew economy was the type...the forerunner...to the real antitype and fulfilment in the NT. I think you understand and agree with this concept. The death of the sacrificial victim was the first act for the redemption of the individual in Israel. As you intimated above, the blood...

    Is This the Beast?

    Protestants today have forgotten, or at least when it is convenient to their opinions, forgotten that scripture interprets itself. Thus it was for the reformers. The reformers were all, without exception, on the same page when it came to identifying the beast. It's one of the few things they...

    That is doubtful. True. One is hard-pressed to assertively claim this as a religious liberty issue. Regardless of how doubtful all the stats and motives are for the current mandates. No-one has been banned from worship...when the government sends their agents into your homes and arrests you...

    Where was the 'mercy' in forbidding funerals? Where was the 'mercy' in forbidding loved ones and close relatives visiting rights to the dying in hospital? Where was the 'mercy' in closing other businesses and sending peoples' only livelihood into oblivion?

    Oh boy. There are so many worms in that can, are you sure you want to open it?

    Indeed. In Israel. But Israel was under the occupation of a foreign power, Rome, which was as far from theocracy as could be, considering the gods they served were false idols, although the principle was similar. "Render to Caesar that which is his, and to God, that which is His" "Gentiles...

    There Remains No Sacrifice For Sins

    She was mistaken that there is a High Priest continuing the work of redemption through meditation with God? You better trear out the book of Hebrews from your Bible.

    Is This the Beast?

    What someone correctly said earlier, that Babylon means confusion, is readily apparent in reading this thread.

    There Remains No Sacrifice For Sins

    There are more scriptures than I could poke a stick at which tell Christians that the affairs of this world... Which include the wars and the politics and the state sanctioned opposition to Jesus even, that is none of our business. Christians however throughout the ages ignore all oflf them and...

    There Remains No Sacrifice For Sins

    Evil ideas cannot be overcome by violence, not even the destruction of those promoting them. The ideas will always remain. If God had in the beginning destroyed Lucifer his rebelliousness would have been validated. His reasons for setting up an opposing government to the kingdom of God would...

    There Remains No Sacrifice For Sins

    KJV Romans 12:21 21 Be not overcome of evil, but overcome evil with good.

    Our work is to introduce people to Jesus. Once that is done, they are in His care. He is well able to look after His own. Never mind what the Pope says... Do what God says.

    There Remains No Sacrifice For Sins

    The work of redemption isn't finished though really is it... Otherwise no-one would be saved tomorrow. And why there is still hope for others because the work of redemption in continuing so long as our High Priest is still ministering. When He leaves the sanctuary to come to take His bride...

    What did you plan to be when you were young vs. what you turned out to be?

    Lol. Yes. Done a few u turns. To pick up and drop off. Particularly enjoy the excursions like the three hour drives to remote camping sites and sporting events. Been a very busy first term... All schools doing their excursions and events as quick as possible before any future covid lockdowns...

    Jesus never whipped the civil Government. It was the religious leadership that He objected to.

    I'm going to perhaps be a little provocative here, but maybe this kind of thing is the very best thing that could happen to the church. Remember history. Jerusalem was surrounded by Roman armies. The armies withdrew for a short period and the Christians I'm Jerusalem saw this as a fulfillment...
