King James equivalent:
Chapter 46
1 God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble.
2 Therefore will not we fear, though the earth be removed, and though the mountains be carried into the midst of the sea;
3 Though the waters thereof roar and be troubled, though the mountains shake with the swelling thereof. Selah.
4 There is a river, the streams whereof shall make glad the city of God, the holy place of the tabernacles of the most High.
5 God is in the midst of her; she shall not be moved: God shall help her, and that right early.
6 The heathen raged, the kingdoms were moved: he uttered his voice, the earth melted.
7 The LORD of hosts is with us; the God of Jacob is our refuge. Selah.
8 Come, behold the works of the LORD, what desolations he hath made in the earth.
9 He maketh wars to cease unto the end of the earth; he breaketh the bow, and cutteth the spear in sunder; he burneth the chariot in the fire.
10 Be still, and know that I am God: I will be exalted among the heathen, I will be exalted in the earth.
11 The LORD of hosts is with us; the God of Jacob is our refuge. Selah.
So, reading a Psalm that was written a over a thousand years before the founding of Islam is paying homage to that religion? A stretch at best. Psalm 48 is a Psalm of comfort stating that as the world is falling apart, we can find comfort in the God of Jacob (Israel in this context). But, I will keep an eagle eye on my LCMS Pastor to make sure he never uses that verse.
Kind of reminds me of playing record albums backwards.
I don’t like the guy either, but jeez.
Thank you. I am not pleased anymore to see my conclusions and way of thinking on TV anymore, especially with people like Beck. At that, he has Muslim ‘friends.’
They are not our friends. Nor do they intend to be. “One can smile and smile and still be a villain.” Shakespeare
Beware the Caliphate, the 14,000+ ‘outreach’ documents to the MB and Muslims in the USon from the present gAngsministratin—even dividing us into classes and ‘tribes,’ the Somali terrorists now in the US, hiding among others who aren’t/weren’t.
They have infiltrated. As it stands presently, those of us armed in multiple ways are still ‘behind every blade of grass’ as the Japanese thought, while Muslims in America demonstrate their beliefs with their garb, their beards, their ‘tolerance’ and religion of Peace talk, when obviously, Islam is peaceful when everyone is Muslim.
Of course, the word ‘love’ never appears in the Qur’an. Let’s emphasize ‘of course.’ That word itself divides us. Muslims will never quite get that, should they ever, ever try to look back through the veil themselves and come to terms with knowledge that kindness is not weakness. “In the Name of allah, as the introduction ‘clot’ sura starts with, can also be translated as “In the name of allah, the kind kindred.” Allah is no kindred of mine.
oops
“US of A”
Must stop posting. I am torqued.
Thank you for the link. It’s not just that he doesn’t bend—it’s like he tosses it without any reverence or care. Also, what you wrote about in your post (about learning Farsi, etc) was very thought-provoking, as well.
Saw something interesting, the other day. Gave me a bit of gladness. Involved some of America's young people, those who are here at home in America. They were taking notes and license plate numbers at a particular location. Thought, God Bless Them, they are watching.
Amen. Even as a Christian, I never fully understood what Israel goes through continuously until I stood in midtown Manhattan on September 11 with my heart ripped to shreds, trying to figure out how to get home. May God be with Israel and America.
Maybe this is in line with biden’s characterization of 9/11 victims as ‘FALLEN angels’.
. NO one should doubt it.
Sounds like they're reacting to the determination to keep God out of the proceedings, lest the mention of Him, in any official manner, makes someone uncomfortable. Hurray for their resourcefulness in overcoming that stupidity!
I kind of get the impression that obama and his cabal are not always fully conscious of what they are saying, but because they have such contempt for the Good, Satan uses them as an unwitting host. Because of this Satanic delusion, obama and his minions can easily dismiss any challenge to their motives through the rationalization that they are acting in the nation’s interest. In other words, an unwitting and delusional malefactor can be more dangerous than an overt Satanist.
I would not put ANYTHING past this guy!
The b;tard needs to be tried for treason for continuing to put America in harms way”
Couldn’t agree with you more. Does anyone think that the next POTUS will have any gonads to truly investigate the POS and bring charges of treason against him and most of the democrats that aided and abetted him?
Neither would I.
He also had an aire to him that he was so put upon, like he couldn’t be bothered and he was wasting his time commemorating the day of the worst attack on this nation. He’s so cold and petty that I CAN accept the idea that he’d use his few minutes at that podium for what he cares about, which is the religion of “peace”.
nice, real nice.
No, but that won’t be necessary if the people were make an issue today!
Just watched the whole reading via youtube. Can’t tell if he’s using the TOTUS or reading from the Bible. He’s still doing that bobbing to the left, then right thing with his head. His heart is definitely not in the reading, that’s for sure. He could be reading anything. Almost seems like he’d rather be someplace else. Tee time? No comment at the end, just finishes and sits down. Strange.
Unfortunately they don’t give a damn. Until the people take action and demonstate in LARGE numbers and demand justice it will just continue.
That is precisely what is needed. IF the sheeple knew where they were and what was at risk, then they would act. The media conspiracy has gone too afar as well....
