Soft target zones are the height of folly. Putting aside religious zealotry, the civilized world owes its existence to GOOD MEN WITH GUNS killing bad men with guns … <insert whatever gender floats your boat>

Sad but more true than not.

We’re done.

It is already obvious to anyone paying attention that TPTB want America to create and sustain conflict. This is the way of the Adversary.

See the thread I started which addresses this point. https://www.christianityboard.com/threads/putin-interview-justification-for-peace.61129/#post-1770159

Peter, you are all over the place. Given, that you already forgave others in the Spirit, why do you place the burden on me to show the verse? You are already convicted.

No, I'm not assuming that at all in this context (although it is a sin). What I'm doing is recognizing the logical implication that IF fellow believers need to be forgiven, it is they who must have sinned.

Really? Why do we have to forgive other believers then? I’m afraid you are stuck on using loaded words and phrases, imbuing them with mystical significance AND appealing to Circular Reasoning as shown in red. You allow yourself no rejection criteria. Same as OSAS folks. If Christians sin, then...

This is a point I make to unbelievers all the time. The reasonable standard for faith is akin to the civil trial standard of "more likely than not." I am convinced, a technique unbelievers use is to invoke a standard designed to fail faith. They invoke, not merely the criminal standard of...

Thank you. I have a gift of high intelligence. One quality of this gift is to be able to entertain an idea without embracing it. Call it intellectual nimbleness. ;) By putting forth arguments for doubt of those not in the body, I sharpen my own arguments for faith. In the final analysis...

God forbid!

Others brought up such sentiments. It’s a different point than the one raised, which is about believability.

Although I have not fully absorbed the Tucker interview of Putin, I wanted to document a few take aways. Brilliant. Tucker said Putin has encyclopedic knowledge of Russian history. Agreed. His analysis from the 9th century on was nothing short of brilliant. Another poster observed Biden would...

You are on fire in this thread!

What? The narrative has been the same all along: nationalism and individual freedom is bad; globalism and people being forced to do things against their will for "the greater good" is good.

No. For Christ also suffered for sins once—the Righteous One on behalf of unrighteous people—in order to bring us to God. He was put to death in the flesh but made alive by the spirit 1 Peter 3:18 By the Spirit he was made alive NOT made alive "in" a Spirit body. It's actually a contradiction...

100% irrelevant. Just more gibberish, esoteric gnosticism; using words imbued with mysticism. Proper laws are objective and violations are objectively determined. People not imbued with the Spirit also don't murder. So, you're making a distinction without a difference. Talking about potential...

Unbelievable! This is where Christians lose people rather than complete our divine appointment to bring others to Christ! I showed how the law - properly and pragmatically defined - applies to Christians and non-Christians alike. You insist on using the phrase "the law" as code words imbued...

Here is the esoteric gnosticism that I rail against in Christendom. I reject code words imbued with mysticism. Facts matter. And the fact of the matter is laws DO apply to Christians and non-Christians alike, despite any claim of no possibility of violating the law. It's an absurd Appeal to...

Yes. 25th Amendment.
