The keyword-seeking program won’t pick up on that one.
I agree.
My comment on the mark of the beast was
meant more shift the thought toward the spiritual things.
It is a war between good and evil.
It does appear we’re seeing heavenly battles playing out here on earth as people more and more away from God. Always leads to lawlessness on all levels.
America had been elevated by gospel belief. It wasn’t perfect, it was distorted by various theological hobby horses of actual denominations. But it managed to avoid the “gay rage” until a few decades ago.
I think a big part of the groundwork for this problem is America dropping the gospel ball. Among this is sexual purity problems. Divorce rates for self proclaimed Christians sadly parallel those of nonbelievers with otherwise parallel demographics. As America cared about this less and less, this monstrosity finally got a serious social toehold. It demanded to leave the closet, and hypocrites found themselves too weak to keep standing for sexual purity.
The other day looking around at random in Wikipedia, I came across some information (hopefully accurate) about how Roman pagan society dealt with sexual purity. Apparently the pantheon they believed in was enough to motivate them. There wasn’t any “god of homosexuality.” They did have Venus, and likenesses of her decorated the public baths in order to encourage purity. When people offended the gods enough in that system, it was held to result in the appearance of a “prodigy” which did not have the positive connotation it does today. Instead it was a monster demonstrating vice in a way that could not be ignored.
Paul’s letter to the Romans, in the passage (1:21ff) that descends into outlining how rejection of God leads to homosexual conduct and other nasty things, is interesting to both compare and contrast to those Roman ideas. Even the pagan pantheon told them to predict such events from displeasing the gods. So drawing the parallel from that theory to what happens with rejection of a single actual God would at once ring a bell with them.
I do have to say, that Christians have gotten too comfortable with being satisfied with social virtue. That can’t carry anybody to heaven. Even pagan gods can effect that kind of virtue. Christians must reframe their battle in deep spiritual terms if they want to win. Just standing back and letting it all go to hell because oh, this is supposedly the final judgment... well to me that’s to shrink from the Great Commission with a cockamamie excuse.
And thus endeth my rant of the moment.

Jim the WND website is not available through Google search, but it is not available through a regular from the browser call, either with www.worldnetdaily.com or www.wnd.com
Neither work from the browser. I don’t understand how Google could be complicit here. Sound like the site is down and if there is someone here that knows Farah...he should be notified.

So do I. Jim do we have a better alternative plan than Yahoo?
They are all working now, strange happenings.
FR has a Facebook page.
https://www.facebook.com/groups/26012226159/
Of course they are quite liberal in their political views, they could block FR Facebook if it gets real good...
Great rant #24
In this current fascist faggot fiasco, as in every other national deviance of the past few decades, there is ONE enabler without which none of it would have been possible:
