A wise seeker will read news from both political extremes as well as moderates and make their own conclusions. Only sheep blindly follow news that they have been told to be trustworthy.
We all have our calling and purpose in life. Keep in mind that God allowed bad kings as well as good kings to fulfill His purpose for the people. Faith and I disagree whether Donald Trump is a good king or a bad one---I have yet to see evidence refuting my belief...but it is certainly possible. Trump has to do more than make America prosperous. There is much work to be done in regards to trust in government and communication with the people. I always said that the next great war will be a war of information, data, and ideas. Chance as a real force is a myth. It has no basis in reality and no place in scientific inquiry. For science and philosophy to continue to advance in knowledge, chance must be demythologized once and for all. —RC Sproul "A lie can travel half way around the world while the truth is putting on its shoes." —Mark Twain " ~"If that's not sufficient for you go soak your head."~Faith "as long as chance rules, God is an anachronism."~Arthur Koestler

The book is about what the Bible says. What else could it be about? And it's written by a preacher. Out of curiosity, what is the name of this book? Chance as a real force is a myth.

faith writes: The main difference being that there will be no Holy Spirit around during the tribulation, while we DO have that blessing now. Here's the thing: It has come to look like living through the worsening times we live in could be as bad as going through the Tribulation. I can't wish either on anybody, but choosing between them has become difficult.Chance as a real force is a myth. It has no basis in reality and no place in scientific inquiry.

A country is judged by its leader. Whenever I think of N.Korea I think of that little fat dictator who used to like NBA Basketball.....so I judge the collective attitude of the people through that lens. When I judged Iraq, I looked at Saddam Hussein...same with Iran and Abdojenadab. Russia and Putin....forgive my ignorance...this is how I see these countries...because the people follow the leader.
Obama was a great leader for America...politics notwithstanding. People all over the world began to see some hope that our nation was progressing towards better treatment of all people...granted we sent too many drones and fought too many wars, but the attitude was helped due to Obama. Trump, in contrast, represents the worst possible stereotype that oppressed people see---a rich, white,arrogant narcissist who wants to make the empire great again. He is a bad advertisement not only for business but for peace. Thats my take on it all, anyway. Chance as a real force is a myth. It has no basis in reality and no place in scientific inquiry.

Faith writes: I AM happy, however, that the elder grandson, thanks to my efforts, knows enough about the gospel to be interested, in spite of the anti-Christian influences that also surround him. So I pray he'll be saved, and his little brother too when he's old enough to understand it. I have a question for you. Jesus says the following:
John 15:18 writes: If the world hates you, know that it has hated me before it hated you. Do you believe that the more people who disagree with and say hateful things to you confirms that you are spreading the right message? Do you feel personally responsible for defending your views even in light of tremendous opposition? Is it inevitable that all true Christians will be hated and laughed at before the rapture---as Noah was laughed at?Chance as a real force is a myth.

Jesus tells us that His Kingdom is not of this world.
Perhaps it is meant that Christians never secure the world for themselves and their children. Perhaps we really are just passing through. The world belongs to satan.Chance as a real force is a myth.
