Me too.
I volunteered as an airport shuttle driver for delegates to the Dallas convention.
Reagan and Trump are different, but both leaders who love our country and clearly see what must be done.
God has blessed us again.
1. I do not. You may. I may feel that way at times, but I do not advocate or wish their death.
2. Putin has actually killed many.
3. “Thou shalt not kill.”
4. I doubt this man is one of Christ’s, based on His evil in the world.
Oh you are talking about a free press? Does a free press include people who lie for a living? Who’s interests are those of our enemies. If Tokyo Rose was spilling her filth from LA during WW2 would you have protected her right to do so?
Sure, it is Russian and widely believed and he can control it. That doesn't make him a Christian. He has prevented outside Christian groups from evangelizing. And this is all I responded to on this thread... It is doubtful to me the man is a Christian.
Putin has killed people he believed to be enemies to the state. “Thou shalt not kill.” does not cover enemy combatants which is how Putin views them. We are not trying to get into bed with him but to share common interests fighting terrorists as an example.
This is a separate issue. I'm fine with working with Russia on common interests. To do so, we do not have to pretend he is a Christian or rationalize the killing off or imprisoning all rivals.
Thou shall not kill means "murder." Killing is right when necessary. Murder is not.
Best and Merry Christmas.
And we didn’t deserve it.
