Beat you by two minutes.
Hitler united the US and the USSR.
So?
In my church, it’s KJ, all the time. I hate it. It is not my native tongue. And here is what is comical: On two separate occasions, during his sermon, our pastor interpreted what the king james said into “modern english” so that the congregation could understand what it really meant. In BOTH cases, he said, word for word, what was in the same place in my wife’s NIV bible.
I have many versions of the bible and study sites such as Blueletterbible and biblehub on the internet going to the original manuscripts and word/phrase definitions. I have no use for a King James bible other than to show people where it is confusing and sometimes just plain wrong. (look up “mansion”)
If the USA is going to protect both Israel and SA against their enemies, why do they need to look around for allies such as each other?
But now they are both looking over their shoulders at Iran.
I think there’s some validity to the idea that much of what the USA has done since WWII has allowed certain other nations to act like irresponsible teenagers.
Well, maybe Dad’s kicking them out of the house now and they have to face reality.
Christians in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries spent far more of their time hating and killing each other for intramural differences than they did fighting the Ottomans or North African white slavers. The current divisions within Islam between Sunni (Arab and South Asian) and Shiite (Persian and a scatter of Arabs) are in a similar vein. For the Saudi ruling clan the conflict is existential.
Ezekiel 38 is coming.
