In 1932 the hierarchy of the Presbyterian USA was taken over by secular people. This is documented in the book Crossed Fingers by GaryNorth. While there are still some churches in the denomination that preach Jesus they are in a small minority. The same goes for each of the other 6 major protestant denominations. Each major denomination has sub denominations that are still committed to Christ. Presbyterian PCA and Missouri Synod Lutheran for example. As I mentioned on this site before, I talked to a man that attended a Lutheran church and heard the gospel message for the first time in that evening service with a social time after. It gets harder to find a Christ centered church these days. You visit several to find one.
I just saw that on TV while I was at the gym. During my 4 years in High School from 1980-1984 I can't remember hearing about any school shootings and I've already heard about 4 school shootings just this year and it's only February! I will absolutely pray for the wounded and those affected. Tragic indeed!

A perverted grace church will also never talk about the following:
Conviction
The Holy Spirit
Anything to do with the shed Blood or Blood Of Jesus
SIN
Living in SIN
Hell
Most have rock N Roll style rock concerts they call worship, with dark sanctuary's and light shows and fog machines.
They use occult terminology to describe their services such as:
Gathering/s
Experience/s
Enchanting worship
Spiritual readings

Yeah I don't know....showing him being taken to hospital right now.....all I know is I have my view about what should be done if proven guilty.............back when criminals paid the price there was less crime and for sure they would never do it again........and I am sure you what I am thinking.....
I remember when I watched Jesus of Nazerath (U.S version)
I remember one scene. A Jewish revolt that led to the death of a Roman soldier
As he arrived at the scene and saw the soldier he fell on his knees, held the soldier, as he held the soldier as he weeped.
Jesus may we weep today as you have done.
Just give us a insight of the pain you had for others when you walked the earth, whether they believed in you or not.
Holy Spirit come in the midst of this.
We pray for the devastated in this.
I pray that in their devastation they will call out to you.
And as they do that you will answer.
Oh Father we ask that you will somehow work in this.
Jesus I ask this in your name.

New International Version 1984 1 Corinthians 5:6-13 Your boasting is not good. Don’t you know that a little yeast works through the whole batch of dough? Get rid of the old yeast that you may be a new batch without yeast—as you really are. For Christ, our Passover lamb, has been sacrificed. Therefore let us keep the Festival, not with the old yeast, the yeast of malice and wickedness, but with bread without yeast, the bread of sincerity and truth. I have written you in my letter not to associate with sexually immoral people— not at all meaning the people of this world who are immoral, or the greedy and swindlers, or idolaters. In that case you would have to leave this world. But now I am writing you that you must not associate with anyone who calls himself a brother but is sexually immoral or greedy, an idolater or a slanderer, a drunkard or a swindler. With such a man do not even eat. What business is it of mine to judge those outside the church? Are you not to judge those inside? God will judge those outside. “Expel the wicked man from among you.”
You know....humanity without Christ will implode, explode and I am convinced if left to their wiles and Jesus did not step in the last two men would kill each other at the same time......the world does not need the Dr. Spocks, shows like the View and or all of the reality fairy tales.......what it needs is JESUS and faith................................................................................serious.

Not the total cause, but certainly part of the cause is bullying by other kids. We should put school bully's on a offenders register like we do for sexual predators.
Our daughter was bullied by the same boy from K until 6th grade. he tried it in 7th grade and she front kicked him right in the chin and knocked his butt on the ground. He needed 6 stitches in his chin and He never bothered her again.
School administration tried to take it out on me and I looked at all of them and said, we told you for 6 years she was a victim of this kid, but his dad's wallet is thicker than mine so he got a pass. I do not suspect you will be harassing us anymore, right!?!?!
When the other parents showed up, the Dad got mouthy and threatening us with legal action and I said, your lucky, had she done what I taught her the first time, he would not be talking any more in this life. My Girl showed him mercy, now if you feel froggy, jump!
They moved away shortly after and put his sonny boy in a private school. We found out a year ago the kid is now serving time in prison for rape and assault of several college girls at his local college.
I bet his mamma suffers at the hands of his daddy, that how male bully's learn it all.

I hear ya.....I got my rear smoked when I was a kid for doing wrong...today with all of the Dr. Spockisms and no right to discipline a child we see a generation coming online with no morality and or conscience.....God speaks to this....he speaks by the hand of Paul concerning the end and how it will be...very perilous ties, lovers of self, no self control and children that are disobedient......etc.......
