Jim I'm not sure that there is a correlation between the Israelites worshipping the serpent and this display of ancient manuscripts. I'm pretty sure no-one is burning incense at the answers in genesis creation museum.
Cue the endless thread where all the amill people castigate the premill people and vice versa. I'm going to mix it up Jim style and throw in a KJV is not the Only bible in English statement.
Jim While I too am an NASB user, you are glutton for punishment. Turning every post into an anti-KJV post only serves to stoke the fire of divisiveness. For your consideration- "Like charcoal to hot embers and wood to fire, So is a contentious man to kindle strife." (Proverbs 26:21 NASB)
KJB Let me ask you what you are doing? It's easy to sit back and say what everyone else should be sending or doing. The real trick is asking God what YOU need to be doing about it.
This is what liberalism and relativism produces. When there are no standards except social justice and political correctness, you get stupidity like this.
I will hold my nose and vote against the party of death and sodomy. I think you are wrong here and if there is even a chance that we may slow the encroachment of the homosexual agenda or save a few unborn children then we must take it and do what we can. Do you think that God is sovereign even over the candidates who win the party nominations? If it was a deal breaker for Christians to have any political dealings with unbelievers why did Jesus tell us to render to Caesar?
This seems like a waste of time to me. Don't get me wrong, I believe that the first and greatest thing we can do is pray, but what are they praying for? An end to violence? If anything they are a day late and a dollar short. They are reaping what has been sown for the last 40 years. Maybe the 40 days of prayer should be for the Spirit of God to move in the hearts of men. Until there are men regenerated and transformed, I'm afraid their prayer vigil will be like putting a bandaid on a sucking chest wound.
Marty Jim claims independent but has on numerous occasions come to the defense of the dems and Obama, enough so that we all suspect that he has an Obama Biden bumper sticker on his car.
Also, when exactly did this democrat party that did good things for Christian purposes exist? I'm in my 40's and I can never remember such a time or party.
MacArthur said, "I don't know how much time America has left," he said in a poignant message preached last month at Grace Community Church in Sun Valley, Calif. "We're on a course described here (in Scripture) as God casting us out."
I think he is right on. Honestly it's something that anyone with the Spirit of God within feels right now. We are teetering on the edge and unless God, in His mercy, moves in the hearts of men, we are done. All that's left is judgement.
I'm not defending the way TSA goes about their searches or all the issues with various parts of TSA. What I am saying is that it is only a matter of time until we see something else here. I am an advocate of profiling and think that if we are going to implement security measures we should at least attempt to learn from the lessons we have learned from the millions of us that have been over in the Middle East and have had to deal personally with the Muslims.
I have seen Muslims use women, children, and even the mentally retarded as suicide bombers. So understand as soon as we fail to screen any particular type of person, they are the very ones they will use and exploit.
