this is not an article on how Christians should respond To being a target of Shooters, it's a worldly call to unite with ALL religions to "figure this out". There is not ONE mention of Jesus Christ, not one. Ours is not to figure out how to stop shootings, but to present and live out the truth of CHRIST before a ever darkening world. There are shootings, "minister", because men's hearts are exceedingly wicked. It's ironic that this minister writes this op-Ed from the same magazine that declared God is Dead a few decades ago.
what does Carson's view, or lack of, on the age of the earth have to do with his ability to be president? Does not God put in place rulers? If God will have Carson as president, it will not matter our opinions.
I can never understand such ridiculous articles. Extinction? Who can stay the hand of God? The only reason that part of the earth is not consumed like Sodom and Gommorah is because Christians are still there! Human finite understanding and naive arrogance is on display in this article.
this is PC hogwash. They say gender blind but it remains that females have a lower physical standard as men. You can deny reality with your mouth, but actively living in it will make foolish your professed wisdom.
Over this past weekend I picked up a small book filled with Christmas Sermons delivered by Charles H. Spurgeon. He delivered them, obviously, during the Christmas season. He doesn't embrace or bind his congregation to NOT embrace the season, but does take opportunity to USE the season to preach Christ. All this lights and tinsel, Saturnalia and Yule tide, Mass and 3 Magi talk is rather peripheral to the main course of taking EVERY opportunity, and SEASON, to preach Christ.
"...Suggests a new survey" This is silly. Of course everyone knows there is a God. Plus, how is this "surprising"? What is surprising is that the research was conducted by a Christian Apologetics institute, as if they did not know the results prior to the research. Wake up, stop drinking this milk and move on to the weightier matters of the faith SA.
if there was any doubt whether the position of pope as unbiblical or not; I present exhibit A, Pope Francis. His speeches are social gospel gobbly gook. He is pulling a Tetzel and trying to raise membership in his "church". When the Progressive/ Anti-Christ world loves you, what does that mean?
this is sad and we will pray for this family. Being someone willingly caught up in sexual sin, I know the slavery of lust and what it does to the heart and mind. It is one of the most devilish and desperate sins to find yourself entangled. Thank God for Christ the great Liberator of our souls.
Mourner, My statement is in reference to the judges oath argument; that they matter. In a pluralistic/relativistic society that has denied a transcendent absolute authority, God Himself, then an oath has no validity. Because Kim swore an oath to God, like the judge did himself, she has fulfilled that oath because God's law trumps a perverted law. The judge is the one disloyal to his oath.
You are spot on Allie. Kim Davis wasn't hired, she was elected. Hence the reason she can order the other clerks to NOT administer licenses from prison. Plus, there are too many who believe she is breaking some law, she is not. SCOTUS did not affirm a law, they subjectively created one via judicial activism or fiat. Further, this judge stated that oaths still mean something, yet, oddly enough, doesn't acknowledge his own sworn oath TO GOD to fulfill the duties of his own office. However, she's a witness to her true oath to Christ and I celebrate it. Praise God in Christ!
Amen Mourner...amen. This judge also sworn an oath, to God, to fulfill his own duties according to justice and truth. What does the oath mean if isn't to the true God? No transcendental base, no foundation for the oath to stand.
Praise God for Kim Davis' witness, even while being sent to jail. She is a witness to God's glory over man's lunacy. I know it's small, but you can go to the Rowan County Clerk's website and send a message...we need to flood that site and flood this nation with truth, which is Christ! Thank you sister Davis.
2012 Democratic convention platform had NO mention of God. They had to take a delegate "yea/nay" vote in which a conspicuous amount delegates voted no. Democrats SUPPORT Planned Parenthood, same-sex marriage, abolition of even a hint of God in the public forum. Do the political/ moral math. Ms. Davis is obviously confused politically but seems sure of her faith.
The two sodomites who are at the center of this are recorded screaming at this clerk. Gay? That's not "happy", it's caustic and pathetic. They are more interested in destroying this woman rather than some quest to fulfill their perverted form of nuptials. We need to stand as this woman has done.
California is a third world territory. Reason left that state many hippie/liberal moons ago. If it weren't for MacArthur and other pockets of Christian faithful, that place would be under water or a wasteland.
Rick, You nailed it with your assessment of "Trumpmania". He is an avatar for those who are indignant toward a dishonest media and hypocritical/politically correct society. The problems arise when we begin to think one person, besides Christ, will somehow fix our woes. The American people, Left or Right, are acting like the Jews in 1 Samuel ( I think) that demanded a king. That, if you look at it, is what people desire. They want THEIR version of a king.
Praise God for these witnesses! May God grant them strength in the face of persecution. May He give peace and hope to their families as well as a persevering faith, for Christ's name sake.
