My voting this time around based on the Bible's principles

[Scott Downey]

I rest my case! Folks, see how Behold avoids trying to support his ideas by scripture. It is because his theology comes out of writings of man, rather than writings inspired by the Holy Spirit.

In reply to Scott, this is the problem. Being raised on the KJV, 1917 Scofield, while being taught the footnotes, I was also taught to have a high view of the Bible as the truth of God. It was a real difficult period of study, over a year for sure, to begin seeing that those footnotes and what I was hearing from the pulpit, from various "Bible colleges", were reading to the Bible what is not there. You can't develop your own system of theology, and then tie together all the read into and added to scripture what is not there, to support your system. Then when you encounter footnotes that flat out contradict what the scriptures state, that system of theology is seriously misguided. One passage for example -

"And the LORD gave unto Israel all the land which he sware to give unto their fathers; and they possessed it, and dwelt therein. And the LORD gave them rest round about, according to all that he sware unto their fathers: and there stood not a man of all their enemies before them; the LORD delivered all their enemies into their hand. There failed not ought of any good thing which the LORD had spoken unto the house of Israel; all came to pass." (Josh 21:43-45 KJV)

You maybe can argue this did not come to completion until Solomon was king, but you surely cannot deny scripture and still keep waiting on it in this day, 3500 years after Joshua!

Yes, I am careful of commentaries. People are fallible. Why go to what someone else says, why not go to the source.
See people have been trained to look to humans in authority over them for understanding, they find comfort in the group think messaging.
I have never been like that, I go my own way, I don't have an interest in belonging to someone's club.

People make up stories, clever sounding myths.
With a mind to understanding scripture, I go for what other scriptures say about the same things to compare like with like.
People start cults on a single verse, stupid as that is, and the cult love bombs them, and they are hooked.

They have been taken over by a stronghold, an evil spiritual power at work in their minds.
The devil has the whole world under his sway, his influence. But we as believers are of God, at least our NEW Man is of the Lord, and we are joined to the Lord as one spirit with Him, even if our minds are being swayed. It is the spirit of a man which is saved in the Day of the Lord Jesus. And that spirit is a new creation in Christ.
Behold all things are become new, the old is gone, all this is of God who has given to us the reconciliation, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ. We can however still live like the old man which is dead, we are to put off the OLD man which grows more corrupt in it's lusts and put on the New man created by God in righteousness and holiness.

16 Therefore, from now on, we regard no one according to the flesh. Even though we have known Christ according to the flesh, yet now we know Him thus no longer. 17 Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; old things have passed away; behold, all things have become new. 18 Now all things are of God, who has reconciled us to Himself through Jesus Christ, and has given us the ministry of reconciliation,

I see you are from Michigan. Do you think Michigan will vote Trump?

PA usually votes Democrat in the cities. I asked a friend in Pittsburgh if she thought PA would vote Trump. She replied that she agreed with everything I said about Trump. I was pleasantly surprised.

I really don't know how Michigan will go. I guess it depends on how many Detroit people turn out for Kamala. I hope that Trump wins because of the reasons I stated at the beginning of this thread. Then, I hope Ron DeSantis is President for eight years for the good of the USA.

Well, that is your opinion, and you shared it.

My View... according to Israel...... is that If IRAN fathered terrorist "proxy", soldiers,.. tie a Palestinian infant to their chest with a rope, and then tries to murder more Jews, ....and then the Israeli Jet hits their Church because 457 of these Terrorist are hiding in there, hiding behind innocent Palestinian Children... then while im deeply saddened that the children were killed, and the church was destroyed......i recognize that this is the behavior of these Quran duped devils, and ......so be it.
Its ugly, its wrong, but that is how they behave, and the only thing that makes them stop is when they are caused to stop breathing.
And the sooner the better, for the rest of the world that just wants to live in peace.



Some people confuse "legal" with "moral", and this type of mentality, has nothing to do with Truth.

For 50 years one side of the aisle has made it "legal" and "moral" while the other side for the most part rolled over and allowed the "infanticide holocaust" to continue. The game changer was Donald J. Trump, not a politician, whom I have voted for 3 times now. There is much more work to be done to stop the pro choice crowd so many rinos are a part of. As far as the bombs go business is BOOMING and both sides of the aisle again make bank on on the continued presence of war overseas. I would hope Trump would put an end to the bloodshed. Your anxiety is getting the best of you. Did the "gog" war start on Oct. 7,2023? Maybe so, the continued tit for tat escalations may end with Samson Option and 5/6 of gog sent to their end.

. Your anxiety is getting the best of you.

I really dont have that, regarding what is happening in the Middle East.
Iran, Russia, China, ... can't destroy Israel, as Jesus is coming back to Israel..
So, they need to pick another game to play, but they can't as they are "foreknown", and we have a BIBLE that told us so.

Now...Its true that "incoming bomb sirens" are a difficult situation for Israel to have to endure for the past 30 yrs.
And its worse since Hamas became the Government, in Gaza in '2005.
Even Yesterday, rocket launchers in Lebanon fired rockets that killed 5 Israeli's, and this wont be discussed on CNN.
THe day before, 3 Drones were sent into Israel by Iran, and 2 were shot down, and one didnt kill anyone.

= This is what Israel is use to...and it should not be like this, but Quran led Satanic Terrorists, will have it no other way.....
However, a rubicon was crossed, when Iran sent in their Hamas devils, on 10-7-2023, and burned Jewish babies in kitchen ovens,, in their own house... and left them burning.... so that they would discovered.. And in this Iran was trying to remind the Nation of Israel..."remember what Hitler did to you"......>>"how does that feel".... "we just did it too"..

So, Israel had killed now, most of Hamas, and into Hezbollah this has continued, and once Iran decided to send the nearly 300 Ballistic Missiles and Cruise missiles........most recently, to try to kill Jewish Citizens, vs the IDF,..... they signed their "Leadership Death Warrant" that day.
The only reason that the TOP of the Iranian Snake Chain is still walking around in his semi-dress, pretending to be a "Holy Man"... is because THE USA has asked Israel to have restraint .

Reader, in case you dont know it.....ISRAEL has NUKES.

So, all of that, is just "end times " according to the Bible, that occur just before The Rapture, that proceeds the Trib.

Be ready... stay prepared..... God bless.
