Amen, and thank you for the words of clarity.
There’s a point there. In standing up for a more classic view of America he has obtained the opposition of many fiery darts.
Trump has bought some time. Will we now turn to the Lord and beseech much blessing to make this moment count for eternity too? I believe it’s possible.
God bless you and strengthen you on your path.
The easy acceptance of abortion is a symptom of more fundamental evil. If our hearts are willing and desirous of being used to bring the Spirit to bear to end that evil, the Lord will speak to us in terms we understand. It is a chilling, killing dearth of love that makes possible the contemplation of such a thing as our modern easy abortion.
God bless the witness of your baptism. In the New Testament, baptism in water frequently appears as the outward confirmation of the hope that results from the spiritual immersion (or baptism) in the Holy Spirit. It is the voluntary recognition of the pledge made by the Holy Spirit of a good conscience towards God.
I suspect that most theologians understand that individuals experience many doubts.
Not necessarily doubts about Christ and redemption, but doubts about themselves being worthy.
I accepted Christ as my Lord and Savior.
What am I to do about it now?

Please lead and guide us, O Lord, and bring us back to You and Your Word. Amen.
Let me not count that as a cause for a stiff (red :-) neck, but as a confirmation that the Lord has been talking sense. Yes He’d have the right to condemn this world in an instant, but to do that is not where His heart is. And so he renews our strength even beyond our own belief, while moving our hearts toward His by His grace and mercy. The result is a pinch play that defeats Satan and raises glory to God.
The result will be to “work out” (bring forward the divine work of) one’s salvation with “fear and trembling.” One’s call will repeatedly appear to be beyond one’s resources. One will stagger at the imbalance. Then grace will appear and move the mountain with power.
When God acted in the bible, the sinful reaction of His people was often to become blase’. That is why it was necessary, when God executed the plan of His heart, to cause grace to superabound when sin abounded.
Love is also not sitting around idly while the wolves rip and tear apart the sheep.
Thanks for the reference to the “The Way I Am” song. It sounds like Paul’s story.
Kneework before God isn’t “sitting around idly.”
For all the talk of a shooting war, I think we know what would actually happen. Huge sectors of America would scream to the government to make it stop. Result: humiliation.
Kneeling is important.
I’m talking about even your neighbors house.
You see armed robbers going in, do you sit and pray and call the police, or do you go over to confront the threat?
I was afraid that the American people couldn’t understand the distinction.
Being ready to do that doesn’t justify making it the gravamen of your social and spiritual plan.
I mean, it has a role in this fallen world. And God bless it. By making it difficult enough to get away with crime, the foolish will learn wisdom. But there is a tempered medium here. We do not want a society run chiefly by guns.
Thank you. It was a wonderful service. Fourteen of us got baptized tonight.
Thank you so much. Was a wonderful service with 14 believers baptized.
Thank you! Fourteen of us were baptized tonight.
Yes it was a wonderful night being baptized with a group of 13 other believers.
