Hey Dal...got some news for you about GOD...
Philippians 4 Amplified Bible (AMP)
6 Do not be anxious or worried about anything, but in everything [every circumstance and situation] by prayer and petition with thanksgiving, continue to make your [specific] requests known to God.
7 And the peace of God [that peace which reassures the heart, that peace] which transcends all understanding, [that peace which] stands guard over your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus [is yours].
He's right - we have Free Will and The Evil One reigns. If we could pray it away, we could also negate the need for Jesus to return. I guess there are some "Christians" who think we can still act our way into His Good Graces and ignore that God deemed that we couldn't so He needed to be sacrificed, but those who believe in the whole content/context of the Bible will agree with the Dalai Lama on this.
it’s a weird world where the Dalai Lama has more balls than the US president.
If America fails, it is not because of what Christians did or did not do. It is because our omnipotent God has allowed it. And if so, He allows it so that He will be glorified by all the nations, and much more by His people.
It's only because I don't understand Buddhism.
Is this the same man that Lowell Thomas and Richard Halliburton interviewed back in the Dark Ages? Didn’t the D L make an escape from Tibet as the Chinese communists invaded?
Hope they choose wisely. For it is clear; some who we employee to lead us and run our government have not done so.
And they must pay a price that resonates for decades on end as a warning to those who would defy the people who employee them.
