Pray for these folks. Remember Ps 2 and Revelation. Our Redeemer lives and will stand in the last day on the earth. Though worms detroy this body, yet in my flesh shall I see God. May they remember the words of Job. Be of good cheer, I have overcome thw world. Christ in the gospel of John.
I will not read the article since I can't bear the details. In Revelation the martyrs ask when their blood will be avenged and they were all given white robes and asked to be patient. God will pour out His wrath in His own time and on His terms. Just as those in the days of Noah could not escape neither will those who touch His elect. Stand firm my African fam in Christ. Do not deny Him. He will reward you. Hold on for there is a crown of life. If you have been washed in the blood of Christ you are eternally safe. Hold on by faith.
Parents need prayer to stand and be faithful in the midst of this. May they take up their cross and follow Him during thos dark trial and be given wisdom and peace from above which the world rejects and cannot experience.
....or folks could repent of their sexual immorality and turn to Christ for cleansing and forgiveness. God can break the chains and give them victory over their lusts. Then they will be delivered from the judgement of STDs.
C-section is always done in emergencies. Why? IT IS FAST! Women facing trauma such as gunshots or toxemia are given C-Sections. That is common knowleged. Look up the procedure of partial birth and then tell me it is an "emergency" procedure. I have had two women in my family whose lives were threatened at the end of their pregnancies. Guess what? Doc sent them to hospital for a C-section stat, not abortion. One survived, one died. Both babies lived. Politicians and others get away with such lies cause there is always some fool willing to repeat their lies or misinformation like sychophants. When someone utters truth the useful idiots chime in repeating the lie or misinformation to cover iniquity. At best they are trying to make themselves or someone else save face. Prov 8:29. Says when we do wrong we harm ourselves and all who haye God love death. Abortion harms women emotionally and can even cause them to die, yet because we hate God we proceed in our lust for death.
Mike wrote: We don't vote for authorities, we vote for the employees of the authorities. We need start from the proper premise, and ask "What is the form of government that God has established among us?"
Mike, you are right. We are a Constitutional Republic with the Constitution being our governing authority. We put way too much stock in the office of Preaident which makes me think we are heading towards a dictatorship. Right now we look more like an Oligarchy being governed by nine court Justices rather than the people.
I seem to remember Tim Geithner becoming the head of the Treasury owing 40K in back taxes, Kathleen Sebelius became HHS owing 100K+ in back taxes. Al Sharpton just marched with Mrs. Clinton in a gay parade a couple months back owing about $3.5M in back taxes. To my knowledge no one has audited Rev J. Jackson who if I am not mistaken was doing some funny stuff with Rainbow Coalition money as it pertained to his mistress whom he impregnated while married. These people are fake. The whole lot of them. Republican and Democrat. Fake, fake, fake. They are one in the same. We all know that rich people hire Accountants to pay as little in taxes as possible and that they can deduct large sums of money since they have a lot money to donate or write off. All of us can except we aren't able to give away enough to claim or we are not business owners with things to write off. The best rhe average person can do is get a child credit, a deduct mortgage interest, list charitable donations (tithe) and hope we get back a return. A return that is an interest free loan to the government.
I am late posting and did not read article so I do not know what she believes about God. I will say that if she wants to glorify God then stop competing in what looks like undergarments. The women at the games were minimally covered. I honestly do not understand a godly man watching the games. I am a woman and refused to watch it because of the lewdness. Next the women will be competing naked. They're uniforms have gotton more indecent over the years. The West is looking more and more like ancient Rome.
Remember the Demoniac in scripture? When Christ saved him he was clothed and in his right mind. Remember Joseph running from Potipher's wife? If you are saved why are you enslaved to porn? Why are you seeking it out instead of rooting it out by The Spirit? Did not Jesus say cut off your right hand and pluck out your eyes if it causes you to sin? Lust is adultery according to Christ. If you are seeking it out you are an Adulterer. There are no sexually immoral people in heaven. Not one. Bible is plain. This is serious. Ephesians says sexual immorality and coveteouseness should not be named once about us. Not once. If you are not humbly trusting God and fighting this tooth and nail, then some self examination needs to occur. If you are humbly fighting tooth and nail depending on God in faith and repentance take heart. You are blessed and can be assured of your salvation as 1John.
John, all scripture is giving for inspiration, instruction, reproof, and correction...as I Tim 3:16 states. I gave you a verse and example of Apostle Paul. Someone else mentioned Nehemiah. If you are struggling with applying scripture which transcends time and culture well ok. We have all been there. To talk about me hiding my light because I would defend myself and others around me if a nut in the name of religion attacked us is just nonsense and not consistent with my response. Others said what I was saying. Some of this is cultural. Europeans for the most part get all squirmy about guns and knives. Americans as a whole don't. Our 2nd Amendment understands their is a such thing as tyranny and self preservation. God given right. By the way, I witness frequently. My coworkers know I profess Christ. So do my immediate neighbors and family. I share Christ with some contacts daily. I have gone to a couple of public venues under church leadership and passed out tracts. I am more comfortable sharing Christ amongst those I rub shoulders with than strangers, but will do it. Folks on message boards need to stop trippin and saying crazy stuff and think before posting. I have been guilty of it and try to be more careful.
BRF and John Uk, these folks are against anyone not Muslim. This isn't particular to Christians or Christianity. Also, Luke 22:36 Jesus tells the disciples to buy a sword. Apostle Paul appealed to governing authorities to save his hyde from the Jews. At some point the government turned on Christians and they just had to take a stand. There is a difference between taking a stand for Christ and another for self defense not linked to being a Christian. If you wish to not ever defend yourself, that is your choice. God is not calling us at all times and circumstances not to defend ourselves. Scripture as a whole interpreting itself bears that out. That needs to be understood and clear. As an aside, if I am out and some fool attacks me in the name of a religion you had better believe I am fighting back and will defend antine with me especially a child or helpless person. If I have to take a stand like the early Church, God give me grace to stand.
Looking for new recruits. Pray for these vulnerable children. I hear most high ranking government officials there are gay so it is not shocking that these narcissistic fools are using their positions for debauchery.
