I would send her in to the brain surgeon for a frontal lobotomy. And I would sell her 5 kids to human trafficking agents. (Is that two things?)

Then I would own my 5 houses again, my successful vacation rental business would still be mine and not her's, and she would finally shut the hell up... I could stay there then...

...all I would have to do for her is to change her drool bucket once a day.

Gave a wedgie to his gramma.

The students do get their refund checks direct deposited in bank accounts, but they still draw out large amounts of cash. They might be going to buy textbooks, which are expensive, or just enjoying have cash in their pockets. A hundred reasons why a person might carry cash.

Thank you for praying for us as we go out on the street and try to make a difference.

We are basically a volunteer force that attempts to work along side of the local police to try to keep criminal activity at a minimum.

I do this for the love of my community and as a civic gesture.

Yamin, is this web page one of your people that believe as you?

Ok, sister. We may be on the same path.

It is taught to us to teach in love. Perhaps that is what you are doing, if so, continue with compassion to speak the truth boldly. For his glory, not ours....

The problem is that people want to claim this is a "Christian Country".... which takes the verse Christ said to Pilate "My kingdom is not of this world" and cuts it right out of the Bible.

There is no Christian country.

I believe these people are worshipping the Constitution as if it is a god-breathed scripture, which it is not... it is a man-written document, full of holes and mistakes, which will one day pass away from all but the history of this world, when in one day of the future, America is no more, and it is just a study in the history class of whatever government comes next.

Christ and Chrsitianity will stay the same, even without the prideful United States.

America isn't a "Christian" country (as if Jesus came here specifically and set up some kingdom in his name... "My kingdom is not of this world"... was the last statement from Jesus concerning his faith and politics...)... there is no Christian country anywhere on Earth... Jesus said "My kingdom is not of this world"... there is no scripture nullifying that and announcing America is now some kind of "God's promised land"... that is so much hog wash.... Heaven and earth will pass away, but his word shall never pass away... kings and kingdoms will all pass away... this country will go belly-up one day, then everybody worshipping the Consitution will be very shocked.

It is vain for a person of faith to get caught up in political arguments.

It is also vain to argue on an on about the scriptures.

Enough said, time for me to move on to a different thread.

Interesting points made here...

Wow, I do not understand why you attack the people of God... to what end?

One thing I believe strongly about is that Christians should not gather to closely to any form of world goverment. This ranting and raving and bickering about political issues in the name of God must go.

I consider these folks to be worshipping the U.S. Constitution. In effect, a type of idolatry, actually. It gets the person of faith's eyes off of the walk that I believe God intends for people.

I believe people can be politically active if they like, but why club people over the head with the God concept as if it gives them extra rights to anything else worldly.

Jesus says it best himself:

***************

John 18:36

"Jesus answered, My kingdom is not of this world: if my kingdom were of this world, then would my servants fight, that I should not be delivered to the Jews: but now is my kingdom not from hence"

***************

And in another portion, Paul writes to the church at Ephesus:

***************

Ephesians 6:12

"For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places."

***************

What I might interject here is that this walk of faith is not one that is much concerned about matters of this world at all. In the above verse it mentions "we wrestle not against flesh and blood".... but instead, the battle is in another place, which as Jesus sais "My kingdom is not of this world"... and Paul writes the battle is against "spiritual wickedness in high places"... attesting again to a spiritual battle, not one concerned with earthly things.

To me, it is vain for a Chrsitian to enter in to political arguments in the name of God. If one is to be politcally active, let him enter in as one of those of the world, as the government is of this world, not of heaven. Jesus Kingdom is not here, it is a spiritual place.

Besides, according to world history, every government is going to come to an end and pass away. So much for the vanity of arguing politics.

Exactly... in a faith which believes "thou shalt not kill"....

....yet in the name of God or some givernment claiming to be "of" God, how many innocents hjave been slaughtered... it is a historical... "WOW."

One other thought, just for the heck of it... rather than it being a collective consciousness that approaches some form of sgreement, it is more of a one-on-one relation... this verse eludes to that, saying to "work out one's own salvation with fear and trembling."

***************

Philippians 2:12

"Wherefore, my beloved, as ye have always obeyed, not as in my presence only, but now much more in my absence, work out your own salvation with fear and trembling."

****************

Which is possibly to point towards each person being accountable for their own walk in this faith thing.....

*****************

And Peter wrote this:

*****************

2 Peter 1:20

"Knowing this first, that no prophecy of the scripture is of any private interpretation."

*****************

Having the meaning that no one person stands up and interprets the scriptures privately.

Leads me even more to think that people of faith should just shush up when it comes to the arguments. Folks like to take their own viewpoints in these ocassions, but in my opinion, and I believe this oipinion is backed by the scriptures above, they are making themselves out to be fools in the sight of all that read the drivel they continually rant on and on about.

I truly believe, as a Christian man myself, that they are wrong to do so... but that's my point of view.

**********************

There are two types of judgments listed in the Bible... one is a type of judgment where it says "Judge not lest ye be judged"... the other, Christ said to "Judge righteous judgement." I have been taught that righteous judgment is an attempt to show someone, with love, if they should err in the scriptures. As best I can, that is what I am trying to post.

There will be many who rebel against it, some because they are very lost in the lust of arguing. Then of course I am going to miss points because I am not perfect.

But my point is simple, Christians shouldn't argue the scriptures.

In effect, it is a type of taking the Lord's name (his Word is his name) in vain. Something a no-no, all the way back to the law of Moses and the ten commandments.

I guess that's my observation, too. And here I enter in yet another philosophical comment... that it could be possible that NO arguing is correct for a believer... go figure... LOL.

I guess my only thought here tonight is that it is a shame to see Christian hacking away at other Christians, as if they "get" something special in some private interpretation that nobody else is going to be allowed to "get"...

... which of course leads to more arguing.

I think the raw nature of humans is to argue.

It seems it is a matter of pride or something...

You of faith, think about these things before you launch into argumentative quarrels...

***************************

"Pride goeth before destruction,
and an haughty spirit before a fall."
--Proverbs 15:18

***************************

"v24 And the servant of the Lord must not strive; but be gentle unto all men, apt to teach, patient, v25 In meekness instructing those that oppose themselves; if God peradventure will give them repentance to the acknowledging of the truth; v 26 And that they may recover themselves out of the snare of the devil, who are taken captive by him at his will."
-- 2 Timothy 2:24-26

***************************

"Give not that which is holy unto the dogs, neither cast ye your pearls before swine, lest they trample them under their feet, and turn again and rend you."
-- Matthew 7:6

***************************

By continuing in quarrelsome activites, the Christian is simply prideful, arrogant, haughty, and in my opinion, all these attempts are worthless in the eyes of God. I hold all of you of faith accountable by the Words of God as quoted above, and ask you to repent from these argumentative behaviors.

Arguments feed the flesh, and have no heavenly value. They basically stir up hate and have no message of the fruit of the spirit.

Perhaps consider these words as well (especially verse 15...):

**************************

Galtions 5:15-16

v15 But if ye bite and devour one another, take heed that ye be not consumed one of another.

v16 This I say then, Walk in the Spirit, and ye shall not fulfil the lust of the flesh.

v17 For the flesh lusteth against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh: and these are contrary the one to the other: so that ye cannot do the things that ye would.

v18 But if ye be led of the Spirit, ye are not under the law.

v19 Now the works of the flesh are manifest, which are these; Adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lasciviousness,

v20 Idolatry, witchcraft, hatred, variance, emulations, wrath, strife, seditions, heresies,

v21 Envyings, murders, drunkenness, revellings, and such like: of the which I tell you before, as I have also told you in time past, that they which do such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God.

v22 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith,

v23 Meekness, temperance: against such there is no law.

v24 And they that are Christ's have crucified the flesh with the affections and lusts.

v25 If we live in the Spirit, let us also walk in the Spirit.

v26 Let us not be desirous of vain glory, provoking one another, envying one another

**************************

Notice hatred and strife (v 20) are listed together as "works of the flesh"

... and I will be watching for Christians who exhibit the fruits of the spirit... vs. 22-23. Arguing is not listed as one of these fruits. I acknowledge that espeically here, on a public forum, many of my Christian brothers and sister have fallen to bitter strife and quarrels.

For them I pray, that they would turn from this path to one of righteousness through our Lord Christ Jesus. Take on the fruit of the spirit (versus 22-23) and you will become that Light of the Wolrd spoken of in the scriptures.

Keep on in these vain arguings, and the world will have reason to despise you. and verse 15 above... "v15 But if ye bite and devour one another, take heed that ye be not consumed one of another."

I state the truth as I see it from the scriptures and I am not here to argue, but rather to set you free from this dreadfull acknowledgement of the flesh. Flee arguing, and come home to the love and compassion of Christ. That is my message here to those who claim Jesus as Lord.
