I won’t dispute that even a little bit.
i followed his advice many years ago and left my dad’s party. and once out of that den of iniquity, i also had the sense to keep my distance from the other major party as well.
I voted for Bishop Jackson in our US Senate GOP primary in June. I’m hoping he has a speaking slot in prime time in Tampa. He would have the entire crowd on its feet! Next time I’m in his part of Virginia, I’m visiting his church.
Then we could say in retaliation, that muzzies are praying to the god of prayer rugs, like Obamboozler and his ilk. I get it.
If Marxism, which underlies the Democrat philosophy, isn’t anti-Christ, then I don’t know what is, except for Islam.
God hears their cries for parking spaces close to the front door of Target, or the P.O., or their urban dwelling. Maybe he even provides those spaces from time to time, caring for sparrows as he does.
I’m so proud of your ecumenism, Dr. K!
Kudos for posting this article.
The “God of parking spaces” remark is most likely meant to be taken derisively, meaning, “You only believe in God when things go your way; thus, when that gymnast praised God for her success, it was a shallow praise because she only believes in God when things go her way”
That’s how I took the remark. In other words, that person believes Christians only praise and love God when things go their way, like when you get a good parking spot in a parking lot. Ergo, Christianity is false because its adherants only “believe” in God when things go their way.
While it’s true some are “fair weather Christians”, it’s unfair and false to paint all of Christianity with such a wide brush; this is to what I’m assuming the good bishop is referring.
Bishop E.W. Jackson is now listed as head of a terrorist organization by US GObamant
No need to pray to God for lost things, we Catholics have St. Anthony who takes care of that job. As for parking spaces, I'm not so sure but there must be a saint in charge of that job too. :-)
Well, it doesn't offend me to be labeled that way. I see it as being thankful to God for all the "little" things as well as for the big things. When I get a favorable parking space I always say, "Thank you for the parking space Lord." What's wrong with that? I see God as ever-present in my life, not as a big person sitting in the sky to call on when I'm in distress. I think that is where these anti-God people miss the truth of what Christians believe, and how they live their lives.
Our preacher the other week told the story of the guy in a hurry and how he prayed and promised God he would quit drinking for a week and go to church for a month if he could get a good parking spot. Just then a car started pulling out of a spot right near the door!
“Oh - never mind God - I got one.”
LOL. That’s typical. See, that would be the Sunday only Christian who goes it alone until the big SHTF.
