He is a solider of the political army of the nar realm whose father is trump and mother is paula white .
He had rather die than let go of this . it will be his end my friend if he turns not from it .
The g reat whore sits over many waters . And the sea is full of her ecumeincal cup of which many now drink .
I would flee anything connected to ecumeincalism inclusvism . its all coming DOWN on JESUS day .
Oh dear, I had @Wrangler pegged as a Catholic. Not a good sign.... NAR must have gotten worse since it started out....hardness of heart and nominal....and stopped up ears. That's what happens with leaven, it grows and bears evil fruit, grieving the Holy Spirit until He departs. Scripture is very clear, our weapons as believers are NOT carnal........God took a dim view of even Israel under the old covenant trusting in horses and chariots instead of the Living God. And we need to pay attention to the lesson of the Lord not allowing David to build His house because of the blood he had shed. War is not for the body of Christ, living stones of HIS temple....we are to be holy/separate from such things.

All that is necessary for evil to flourish in this world is for good men to do nothing.

I know.
I gave up arguing with the Islamic sympathizer.
He expects Christians to just stand by and watch evil dominate.
Either you support good or you support evil.
He clearly supports evil as do some others.

Ephesians 6:10-13
10 Finally, be strong in the Lord and in his mighty power. 11 Put on the full armor of God, so that you can take your stand against the devil’s schemes. 12 For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms. 13 Therefore put on the full armor of God, so that when the day of evil comes, you may be able to stand your ground, and after you have done everything, to stand.

You either oppose evil or you support evil.
It's very simple.
When evil invades your home you don't just stand by and watch. You defend against evil like Paul tells us to do

Now let’s modify your meme slightly.

Instead of “Christians vs. Muslims” let it read “Christians vs. Christians” and instead of “Good vs. Evil” let it read “Evil vs. Evil”.

Let us retain “Choose Wisely”.

Also not that in Ephesians 6:10-13, the Apostle is not referring to weapons of the world.

Defend against evil as Paul tells us to do? Yes.

Did Paul defend against evil with the weapons of the world?

Paul answers,

”We [followers of Jesus] do not use the weapons of the world“ (2 Corinthians 10:4).

I call upon you to follow your admonition: Defend against evil as Paul not only instructed us, but modeled it.

In other words, I call upon you to truly choose wisely.

To deal only with your first accusation: A third party, unprompted by me, has already told you that I’m not an Islamic sympathizer. How then should I respond to this?

First, by recognizing it for what it is -> a fiery dart of the devil.

Second, by following the instruction of Paul -> by donning the full armor of God.

My problem is solved. I’m standing my ground. I’ve successfully opposed evil.

Scripture is very clear, our weapons as believers are NOT carnal

WRONG. David did not strike David down with a spiritual rock. Jesus did not use a spiritual whip, but a carnal, worldly, literally fleshy whip.

NAR must have gotten worse since it started out....hardness of heart and nominal....and stopped up ears.

Again, wrong. No hardness of heart, just doing the LORD’s work, JUSTICE, as Micah 6:8 commands.

Doing the right thing is usually not the easy thing. And it is not easy to stand up for the innocent Christians against the forces of darkness - especially when our feminized, over-spiritual culture pretends it’s not God’s will.

the reason you probably had him pegged as a catholic
IS because THAT REALM , as well as others , HAVE BEEN PROGRAMMED by SUCH A THING .
They all been hollering for years , HEY we all catholic , HEY LETS heal the wound .
Most within christendom are far more CATHOLIC now than they realize .
IT was the plan sister . THEY DID INFILTRATE .
And they do so through a religoin called INCLUSIVITY . and that religoin Merges The false ones in as well .
AND more and more will all soon believe WE ALL SERVE THE SAME GOD
and THAT HIS PLAN is FOR WORLD PEACE . ONL Y it aint GOD sister , its another all together .
WHO by peace SHALL CERTAINLY DESTROY many .
Folks keep wondering , WHEN is this one world religoin that all buy into going to come .
HELLO ITS HERE ALREADY . THEY Found a way TO MERGE THEM ALL under a concept
that all will see and beleive is GOD , IS LOVE , AND IS HIS PLAN FOR WORLD PEACE .
ITS HERE sister .
And more and more circle to the all inclusive image of a god they THINK IS GOD .
SOON all who do NOT BOW to this inclusive image , will be cast into the fiery trials of persecution .
IT will BECOME LAW . when it do GREAT persecutions will begin against all who did not conform and bow
to its image of the god of inclusivity . The one who came in his own name
by means of a harlot whose cup of fornication she poured .
THEY drank down A LIE . a lie they thought and were told was LOVE , was of GOD , and will be and is the solution
FOR world peace . ONLY it wont be peace n safety for those who joined hand in hand with it ,
NOT ON THE DAY OF THE LORD it wont . SUDDEN destruction will surely come down upon them all .
FOr their love , DENEID THE VERY LOVE of GOD , THE LOVE of THE TRUTH whereby one could be saved .
and SOLD it lie , its lie , which convinced them all they do the work of THE ONE TRUE SAME GOD of all religoins .
ITS ALL of anti christ sister . ITS Peaking now . Its peaking .

Notice david could not build the house of the LORD due to the blood he had shed .
Solomon would build that house made by hands .
AND NOW we have a far greater HOUSE , a far greater.
ONE prepared by GOD and the LAMB , who not only shed not the blood of man on earth ,
BUT SHED HIS OWN BLOOD FOR US .
But oh no , people dont want that HEAVENLY KINGDOM sister , NOR that HEAVENLY KING .
What many desire is THE EARTHERN and that is why they do stoop and fall into greater and only greater darkness .
And by thier earthen kingdom , though cliamed as heavenly , BELIEVE ME they gonna SPILL BLOOD SISTER .
Nothing new under that ol sun . IT has happened before and it shall again sister .
WHEN man tries to blend the two , I never once seen ANY GOOD COME OF IT .

OH when man does try to merge the two .............
In time the ecumeincal cry of join
will become the crusade cry of Convert or die . BLOOD is coming sister .
And those who kill us will BELEIV E they do GODS WILL . FOR THEY BELEIVE ITS GODS WILL for to attain peace n safety on earth .
OH believe me sister , the time is and is coming
WHEREIN you , i , and other non conforming sheep
will be seen every bit as dangerous as ISIS , as a terroist .
THEY gonna buy the SOLUTION SISTER that will be enforced by THE DIGITAL AI LED system .
WEEP for them sister . FOR the end of the sheep IS REAL GOOD . but the end of all who DENEID CHRIST
is not good .
IF severe persecutions were and are allowed to come upon the sheep ,
JUST How much worse a punishment awaits those who TROD CHRIST under foot FOR what this so called Peace n safety
interreligious plan . WEEP not a tear for me sister . WEEP and wail for THEM .

the most kind atheist , DOES NOT KNOW OR FOLLOW JESUS
Even the kindests buddists of all , DOES NOT KNOW or follow JESUS .
NOr does any other false religoin .
In fact THERE ARE NO GOOD PEOPLE in them religions ,
ONLY GOD IS GOOD and thus ALL MEN DO NEED TO REPENT AND BELIEVE ON JESUS . TO be saved ,
to be reconciled to GOD , to be justified , to be made the righteosness of GOD in CHRIST .
SO they can try and persaude me there are people in all false religoins , and etc

Have any of the warmonger cheerleaders here ever tried to explain to you why Jesus, the Apostles, and the followers of Jesus didn’t use the weapons of the world to defend themselves from the pagan Roman soldiers who were using the weapons of the world, as directed by the pagan Roman government leaders, against them?

And we need to pay attention to the lesson of the Lord
Agreed. We need to pay attention to the lesson of the Lord. 1 Samuel 15:3
Now go, attack the Amalekites and totally destroy all that belongs to them. Do not spare them; put to death men and women, children and infants, cattle and sheep, camels and donkeys.’”

You may have done something like that but I think it’s far more likely that you haven’t. (We would almost certainly have read about it if you had.)

One of the bravest men who ever walked the face of the earth - Desmond Doss - stands as a shining example against your “feminized” argument.

Of course they have not . For their kingdom is not OF THE VERY KINGDOM OF JESUS CHRIST .
Are you a king then ......................
MY KINGDOM IS NOT OF THIS WORLD , IF IT WERE MY SERVANTS HAD FOUGHT that i had NOT BEEN DELIVERED unto you .
but their kingdom of the ecuminencal controlled harlot , IS OF THIS WORLD
and they will KILL to defend it . AND MANY SHEEP will bleed because of them and their love of their god and their earthen
utopai kingdom THEY CLIAM BE OF GOD but is ONLY OF MEN and is earthen .

what some fail to realize is
they are under the law , the law of the pope , of t rump and thus see the kingdom as earthen
and they as the judges of the law .
And kinda odd how that law of men seems to be used to support only certain parts of the LAW f irst given by MOSES
but DARN SURE TRANGRESSES the very law as well .
People are blind sister and blinded by their own hearts desires . whether it be to the pope , or trump who do that bidding ,
or whoever and whatever man arises who can give them and promise them
their best life now , their peace n safety in this world .
As by the law given of MOSES
by which the pattern of the tabernacle was patterened ONLY AFTER the heavenly BUT NOT THE VER YHEAVENLY
who went into the land of canan to establish this KINGDOM
and of course were ordered b y GOD to cleanse the land of the wicked .
Yet even the very law , prophets , torah , abraham himself and others
KNEW WHO WAS COMING whose kingdom would NOT be built after the pattern of THE TRUE
BUT OF THE VERY TRUE ITSELF .
OH yeah there has been a change in the law . We aint to be the judge of it .
AND NOW THE KINGDOM is HEAVENLY , not the pattern of the heavenly , BUT THE HEAVENLY ITSELF .
but most have about zero idea of what i jus said .
Paul showed us an example of this allegory . AND HE SAID WHICH ONE WAS STILL IN BoNDAGE
and which one IS THE FREE . THE EARTHREN one was NOT THE F REE ONE , its the one IN BONDAGE .
ITS THE HEAVENLY JERSUALEM which is FREE and mother to all the sheep . this people have no idea what that even means .

Thanks.

If they stay true to their logic, it’s just a matter of time before they try to persuade anyone who will listen to them that I’m a pagan Roman apologist / sympathizer.

Not even one little bit. I'm not saying we don't need the feminine. We do. It's that we also need the masculine. Desmond Doss would have been wiped out if it had not been for brave, masculine warriors who ultimately defeated the enemy. Simply put, evil in this world is not overcome by kindly wishing they transform or loving dialogue.

Evil is overcome by violence, which is the ultimate solution of our Lord by casting them into the Lake of Fire for annihilation. We should follow Jesus' lead -and thank God, despite the likes of you, we are.

Oh dear, I had @Wrangler pegged as a Catholic. Not a good sign
I asked AI. List protestant wars

The primary conflicts involving Protestant forces—often called the European Wars of Religion—occurred following the Protestant Reformation in 1517. These wars were driven by deep-seated religious divides between Protestantism and Catholicism, though they were frequently complicated by political, territorial, and dynastic ambitions.
1777565799249.pngLiberty Magazine +2

Major International Conflicts
  • The Thirty Years' War (1618–1648): Considered the most devastating religious conflict in European history, it began as a Protestant insurrection in Bohemia against the Holy Roman Emperor. It eventually involved nearly all major European powers and transitioned from a sectarian battle to a struggle for continental dominance.
    1777565799259.jpegHistory Guild +3
  • The French Wars of Religion (1562–1598): A series of eight civil wars fought between French Catholics and Huguenots (Protestants). Famous events include the St. Bartholomew's Day Massacre in 1572.

  • The Eighty Years' War (1568–1648): Also known as the Dutch Revolt, this was a struggle by the Protestant-led northern provinces of the Netherlands to gain independence from Catholic Spain.
    1777565799275.pngLiberty Magazine +1
  • The Schmalkaldic War (1546–1547): A war within the Holy Roman Empire between the Catholic forces of Emperor Charles V and the Schmalkaldic League, an alliance o
