Give God the glory my friend and keep on asking and asking until He tells you to stop or there simply is no more time.

I don't read every post on every thread as I get tired and disinterested in many of the same arguments given repeatedly. I have been on Internet Christian forums for about 20 years now and everything take more time than it once did and I have less time left than when I first began. This thread...

@"ByGrace" Continuing to pray for you Helen. Hopefully things will calm down soon. You one my oldest friends either online or offline. I will remind Kathy of your continued distress.

I was thinking I might like to visit you and Dave sometime, but this sure does put it off indefinitely.

You have me at a disadvantage as I have read few if any of your posts, so what could I know of you? My words which you cited in any case were addressed to another person @justbyfaith to be exact and as I already explained to him that they did not mean what you are saying. As to joining "gangs"...

I was not suggesting that really. I was stating my own position as I understand it. Praying without ceasing for any of us alone is an impossible thing, but for God in us, nothing is impossible. However, I try to never refuse such an humble request so I am praying for you right now. The...

Adam was one thing prior to his disobedience and another after his disobedience, the difference between being alive and being dead. OK. OK. But what is it we understand from any of these verses and others without being led by the Holy Ghost? What is the written Bible to a person without the...

For men without God, what we have in the United States may be the best thing going, but seeing what we really do have here, we may understand why it is NOT the best. It is really not even good. The best would be to be governed by God Himself. But most men won't allow that.

Love should be the "charity" [in the KJV] as per I Cor 13:4-7 The best way anyone can properly motivate another person is to always be like Jesus. If we are not, to the extent that we are not, we are putting on a show without good fruit. But who gets to decide the essentials as certainly...

People are all born very selfish. As an infant this a survival mechanism, but to get along with anyone we must change. Jesus was the one who rather being selfish was selfless. Christians are supposed become like him, so when you see a lot of selfishness still in a person we must wonder where is...

@Frank Lee I am continuing to pray for everyone affected by this situation that God will grant each one what is needed to go through what must be gone through. I pray that God give each of you strength in Him. Give God the glory in any case.

My Spanish is better than my German simply because I learned it for the most part in California where as a child about 20% of the population was Mexican American. In Oklahoma I don't use it as much but it is certainly more common than German.

When I first start attending public elementary school [1949], we learned the Pledge of Allegiance to the flag and recited it in the auditorium together with the entire student body. Those words, "under God" were NOT included initially. However, while I was still in elementary school with...

I cannot say that for certain, but likely it was so for the 1st World War led by the Kaiser Germany was also very much an aggressive nationalistic nation. The Weimar Republic was set up after the armistice. I doubt there was any change to the anthem but without researching it I remain uncertain...

So then should we consider the question as to who our brother is? Surely we are to love those who are our brothers. Are we also to love those who are not? Can those who strongly disagree with us be our brothers according to God? Absolute Truth if a person really had it would be a good thing...

@Mister Michael I knew a man who years ago was my pastor who would never salute the US flag [or any other flag]. I don't believe this was wrong if it is done for the right reason. We must put God first but as I understand it that doesn't mean we cannot honor our nation and its flag. It simply...

Perhaps then my friend only you and I are left to enjoy the... Oh, but lest I forget, maybe we two also want to condemn each other so that we may join the rest in whatever punishment is due us?

Instead of too many tears let us try a little German ["Deutsche" pronounced "Doy ch"] "Gröss Gott". Even though Germany is not very Christian any more in the south near the Swiss border where I was for a few weeks before going to Berlin in 1969 the people there in the small town of Radolfzell...

Well don't give up my friend. If you are able to find a patient German speaking person living close to you that would be a good thing to help you. Back when Germany was divided I spent a full year studying in West Berlin. When I was still working I used to translate documents but I retired 18...

@Mister Michael Good choice. Do you understand any German. I read German but due to lack of practice I speak it poorly.
