Free Republic

A government that pisses away thousands of lives and trillions of dollars on military campaigns in Islamic sh!t-holes halfway around the world while facilitating an invasion of Third World peasants here at home has no moral claim on any loyalty from its citizens anymore.

The Athanasian Creed regarding the Trinity. Confusing, but interesting

That we worship one God in trinity and the trinity in unity,
neither blending their persons
nor dividing their essence.

For the person of the Father is a distinct person,
the person of the Son is another,
and that of the Holy Spirit still another.
But the divinity of the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit is one,
their glory equal, their majesty coeternal.

What quality the Father has, the Son has, and the Holy Spirit has.
The Father is uncreated,
the Son is uncreated,
the Holy Spirit is uncreated.

The Father is immeasurable,
the Son is immeasurable,
the Holy Spirit is immeasurable.

The Father is eternal,
the Son is eternal,
the Holy Spirit is eternal.

And yet there are not three eternal beings;
there is but one eternal being.
So too there are not three uncreated or immeasurable beings;
there is but one uncreated and immeasurable being.

Similarly, the Father is almighty,
the Son is almighty,
the Holy Spirit is almighty.
Yet there are not three almighty beings;
there is but one almighty being.

Thus the Father is God,
the Son is God,
the Holy Spirit is God.
Yet there are not three gods;
there is but one God.

Thus the Father is Lord,
the Son is Lord,
the Holy Spirit is Lord.
Yet there are not three lords;
there is but one Lord.

Just as Christian truth compels us
to confess each person individually
as both God and Lord,
so catholic religion forbids us
to say that there are three gods or lords.

The Father was neither made nor created nor begotten from anyone.
The Son was neither made nor created;
he was begotten from the Father alone.
The Holy Spirit was neither made nor created nor begotten;
he proceeds from the Father and the Son.

Accordingly there is one Father, not three fathers;
there is one Son, not three sons;
there is one Holy Spirit, not three holy spirits.

Nothing in this trinity is before or after,
nothing is greater or smaller;
in their entirety the three persons
are coeternal and coequal with each other.

So in everything, as was said earlier,
we must worship their trinity in their unity
and their unity in their trinity.

Anyone then who desires to be saved
should think thus about the trinity.

But it is necessary for eternal salvation
that one also believe in the incarnation
of our Lord Jesus Christ faithfully.

Now this is the true faith:

That we believe and confess
that our Lord Jesus Christ, God’s Son,
is both God and human, equally.

He is God from the essence of the Father,
begotten before time;
and he is human from the essence of his mother,
born in time;
completely God, completely human,
with a rational soul and human flesh;
equal to the Father as regards divinity,
less than the Father as regards humanity.

Although he is God and human,
yet Christ is not two, but one.
He is one, however,
not by his divinity being turned into flesh,
but by God’s taking humanity to himself.
He is one,
certainly not by the blending of his essence,
but by the unity of his person.
For just as one human is both rational soul and flesh,
so too the one Christ is both God and human.

He suffered for our salvation;
he descended to hell;
he arose from the dead;
he ascended to heaven;
he is seated at the Father’s right hand;
from there he will come to judge the living and the dead.
At his coming all people will arise bodily
and give an accounting of their own deeds.
Those who have done good will enter eternal life,
and those who have done evil will enter eternal fire.

If memory serves, Rick Perry flew into one of the Texas mosques for their grand opening ceremonies...Not to mention attending La Raza meetings.
—————-

Perry was a piece of work, wasn’t he? But when it gets right down to it, Abbott has become the problem along with Dan Patrick.

And I’m not even going to get into what Bush turned out to be.

Gov Abbott is encouraging Islam,that and the now liberal Texas Congress. Many of us are sounding the alarm, but no politico from the very top to the bottom cares because they have the Muslim vote. We’re on our own.

What in the Wide, Wide World of Sports is wrong with half of Texas?

—————————

Liberals moving here during boom times and not going back to their own hell holes is what’s wrong with Texas, That and Gov Abbott encouraging anyone and everyone to move here.

Prayer is the best action for all situations, it was a good thing to suggest it.

I’m wondering if this isn’t a play of sorts. It could benefit Elon by keeping people from torching anymore of his cars and it gets us all to look at the reconciliation bill a bit closer.

It is certainly more complicated than I suggest, just putting it out there since it’s what I’ve been thinking. This does not in any way negate the need to pray for both of these good men.

ICE officials reportedly detained the 31-year-old for failing to file a single document, due in 2015, around the same time the couple lost their first child in a stillbirth. Amidst their grief, they forgot to file Form I-751, the Mississippi Free Press reported.

Trees only block the view.

A little hack I came up with if you need to put lotion on your back in a place you can’t quite reach: I went to the $ store and bought a rubber scraper/spatula and used that to apply it.

Try a basting brush used for BBQ, silicone or standard.

Me thinks one of your neighbors is MS-13 or TdA.
But, in Odessa...who can tell? 😂

That or one of your neighbors is having an affair.

There was definitely something going on. Did I say he was there several hours after the officer left? That told us something, we just don’t know what. Our house is second from the corner at the beginning of the block, a good vantage point to see comings and goings of at least 3 blocks.

I sure hope there aren’t any bad actors close to us, But we’ll never know - this is Odessa, after all 😂

❤️

All I can think of is maintain situational awareness, and if you have personal defense items, keep handy. If car is still there around sunset, might be a good idea to make contact and ask something like “everything okay?”

————-

Well, the police left and he stayed more than another hour, so we’re thinking he must have been known to them, perhaps a stake out or PI. If he was unknown to cops, or a bad guy, he would have left, we think.

We did consider sending him a pizza ala “Beverly Hills Cop” or bring him a bottle of water, but decided against it. If he comes back, we just might…

Well then, what DID he associate those numbers with?

I’m so sorry LJ. The best I can give is my prayers that Gods Will be done in your life and that He will decide we need you much longer.

You were such a blessing to me during my fight with cancer and I cannot bear the thought that you must fight for yourself once again.

I do believe that Ivermectin can be very helpful, but no matter the medicinal path you choose, Gods Grace will always be enough.

😂. The thought crossed my mind.

I've got kind of an off subject question to ask any LEO’s or any other person able to answer.

There's been a strange car sitting out in front of our house for over an hour, a nice one. Guys been on the phone, the car is running. We have the license number. We thought it was unusual, and we do have neighborhood watch, so we called the police dept. and said about what I just said. We just wanted to be sure.

About 10 minutes later, the police showed up, with lights on and stopped behind the car. No officer got out, or did the driver of car get out. After about 5 minutes, the officer turned off his lights and left.

The car Is still out front. Fascinating! Someone undercover? A stake out? Or just not a threat?
