    Applying God's Word to Politics

    Neither do the maga folks, so I don’t see why you think they do unless you only watch the Dem media.

    Applying God's Word to Politics

    I can tell you do not attend one of the churches that prays every Sunday for God’s will to be done on earth as it is in heaven.

    The Kerygma - God's Requirement for Salvation

    HAVE means “obligate”, so no. And “wants” means “wills”, so your attempt to demean 1 TM 2:3-4 is problematic. I don’t know why you want to impugn God’s love for everyone, which makes damnation unfair = unjust. Jesus commanded evangelizing so that those who have only one or five talents will...

    Secular Music

    Yes and I see nothing wrong with secular songs that don’t advocate evil.

    In your opinion do you believe world is about 6000 years old

    From a garden to a city? I guess the command to fill the earth was obeyed. I just hope the city has parks the size of Colorado!

    The Kerygma - God's Requirement for Salvation

    Your point is based on RM 10:14, but you are overlooking RM 1:20 (cited previously), CL 1:23, "The gospel... has been proclaimed to every creature under heaven", and JN 1:1&3, "In the beginning was the Word [Logos]... Through him all things were made...". (cf. PS 33:6) These passages indicate...

    Applying God's Word to Politics

    The MAGA folks are not trying to establish a kingdom but rather trying to prevent a fascist dictatorship from being established, and Trump is doing more for our cause than you or me, so have some humility and hope that we all will try to sin no more. (JN 8:11)

    I was wondering who believes you can get unsaved.

    Thanks. I owe my logical interpretation of Scripture to my Dad, who was a mechanical engineer and a Christian because it is the best belief.

    I was wondering who believes you can get unsaved.

    I agree. Scriptural teaching was expanded for me as read the entire Bible, first the New English Translation and later the New International Version and learned much beyond the evangelistic sermons our pastor was stuck repeating.

    Applying God's Word to Politics

    You posted a very important point that has tremendous political application: "Let every soul be subject unto the higher powers. For there is no power but of God: the powers that be are ordained of God. Whosoever therefore resisteth the power, resisteth the ordinance of God: and they that resist...

    Applying God's Word to Politics

    But Eli1, you apply biblical teaching in order to judge that Trump is a better presidential candidate than the Dems who hold even fewer Christian values. Remember that votes are for the purpose of saving our country from atheist Marxists/Globalists policies, NOT to indicate approval...

    The Kerygma - God's Requirement for Salvation

    Yes, no one without the Holy Spirit is saved (RM 8:9), but their "born-againness" has scant special revelation prompting it, even less than in the case of the Ephesians in Acts 19:1-2.

    The Kerygma - God's Requirement for Salvation

    Paul indicates that the Lord comes to "them" in the "manner" of moral conscience and Nature/Creation that is "proclaimed to every creature under heaven" (CL 1:23, RM 1:20). He also views Gentiles who have faith like Abraham as being "blessed" = saved (GL 3:8, cf. RM 10:13-18). These cases are...

    Applying God's Word to Politics

    Well, I trust that you saw the two passages that I applied to the issue of open borders and I encourage you to cite the Bible regarding whichever political issue that you want to discuss.

    The Kerygma - God's Requirement for Salvation

    Yes I am driving at those examples but also at the fact that millions of people around the globe before, during and even after the NT era never had the opportunity to hear either the OT prophets or the NT Gospel, but we have biblical clues about how they will be judged justly.

    Applying God's Word to Politics

    I think the Christian or right thing is to invite folks into our country in a vetted manner just as we invite people into our home.

    Applying God's Word to Politics

    The only migrants the discussion of open borders should be concerned with are those who are here illegally, even if abetted by the globalists.

    The Kerygma - God's Requirement for Salvation

    Or they might be saved because they perceived that God exists and sought His will/word. (MT 7:7, HB 11:6)

    Secular Music

    But that $10 when I wrote the poem is probably only worth $2 today thanks to the inflation caused by the uniparty spending, so not so much!
