Again...NOT NEWS. Does not belong in “News/Activism”. Religious philosophical discussion.

Division and unity. God calls for both, how can that be? It is the point of the division and unity that is important.

In God’s case, that point is , “who is Jesus”

Trump is good at this model also. Everyone looks at him as devicive and focus on that. But look at the point of division. What is Trumps point of division and unity?

I attended a revival meeting. It was mostly about getting everyone amped up emotionally rather than appealing to our intellects. It was a great feeling, but only while it lasted. This is not a long term solution.

Decades ago, I heard about how a little girl learned to apply the biblical call to “love one another.” She looked at her friend and said, “I’m one, and you’re another.”


Not activism? None better right now. in both a heavenly and earthly perspective.

The 2nd is not about guns, it is about the militia. If you are not grouped up, get so.....................................

Deuteronomy 4:2 addresses this.

See, even discussing disunity causes disunity about where the disunity discussion belongs!!

Jesus told us “Do you think that I have come to bring peace on earth? No, but rather division; for henceforth in one house there will be five divided, three against two and two against three; they will be divide father against son and son against father, mother against doughtier “Luke 12:49-53

“In the beginning was the Word and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.” John 1:1

If we want peace and unity, we need to accept the Word (Truth) of Jesus and live accordingly. We say that we are followers of Jesus, yet reject His Truth, reject the Church Jesus established and the Sacraments that he left us for our path to salvation.

How can we have unity when we follow our own beliefs and not the Truth that Jesus gave us? Jesus told us that every one that commits sin, then we are a slave to sin. John 8:34

“Truly, truly, I say to you, if anyone keeps my word, he will never taste death.” John 8:51

Good post. And the Most Intellectual Dr. Michael Brown can start by NOT sowing discord among the brethren when he calls Christians that support Trump and Nov 3rd and that we believe there WAS election fraud - delusional. And ANYONE who prophesied about Trump and it yet hasn’t fully taken place then the Most Intellectual Dr. Michael Brown assembles an ‘accountability’ panel that he puts himself on and those elite ‘prophets’ to judge, according to THEIR judgments, who has spoken heresy or not or is worthy or not.

Start with your own attitudes and actions Doc. This past year you’ve shown your true character.

But I do agree that it will take a great revival to make this happen. And I believe it is coming. In spite of what some may EXPONENTIALLY say is not in the destiny of America.

We (the saved by grace ones) will be united in heaven, not before.

"To be clear, when I speak of “the Church” I’m not speaking of all who profess to be followers of Jesus. I’m speaking of those who are genuine believers, those whom God considers to be His sons and daughters, those who have been truly redeemed. "

Indeed, the only one true church is that which only and always consists 100% of regenerated believers, regardless of Rome which wants to basically copyright the term.

Revelations|22:19
And if any man shall take away from the words of the book of this prophecy, God shall take away his part out of the book of life, and out of the holy city, and [from] the things which are written in this book.

There are plenty of places on FR that you can legitimately post this kind of thing. “News/Activism” is not one of them.

WHY, exactly, do you insist on having it here?

Like I said You Do Not Tell Me Where I Can Post. Why Do You Insist?

See I can ask you the same question. Now leave me alone. Got it?

As I can see you joint July 24, 1998, I found Free Republic via the Drudge Report when it held the ally about Bill and Hillary Clinton in DC. Which was April 17, 1997 This is when I joined, but under a different name. What do you have to say about that Nooby? BTW My provider went out of business and I was unable to get my password up. So I made up a new Freeper name Kaslin. Kaslin, which are the last 3 letters of my maiden name, and the last 3letters of my married name.

There is only one way to be unified... and that is by the same Holy Spirit in each believer.

The Same Holy Spirit will be consistent on doctrine with ALL those who HEAR HIM.

If the Gospels differ, then it is NOT the same Spirit.

"Why Do You Insist?"

Because the rules of Free Republic say it doesn't belong in this category.
