I'm not libertarian. I believe the removal of prayer, scriptures, and other Christian influence in deference to minorities has eroded a foundation built upon Christian principles. A little leaven: Television and movies have pushed 'acceptable' to diminish values and decency. Such...

Know all this. What I DON'T know, is your recommendation for a Christian at such a point. What does he/she do???? Agreed, but it doesn't tell me or another , as Christians, what to do. Do we abstain from voting? Do we not get involved at all on that end? Do we try and get Christians into...

Just "me and Jesus and nobody else!" I don't think so. That's NOT the body of Christ. You as a neck isn't a body. Learn from your elders and betters, you cut people, the whole body of Christ, off at the neck. You are so worried about a dirty hand, you've cut every last person who needs...

They do? I'm not sure how to 'legislate.' I simply think if people are brought to Christ, those 'want' to please Christ. They may or may not know how to do things politically. Moses was a good leader, but God took him for a burst in anger, specifically because he got to the point where...

"despite" I'm not sure what is what. I've read that prostitution was legal in states in the past. Now, again. The back and forth with such makes my head spin BUT the answer isn't government, it is salvation in the Lord Jesus Christ. When people are saved, they will lead into godly...

Look above. Your posts about Libertarians are much much longer than mine. Does it matter? Does it really matter? I'm not Libertarian. I'm not Democrat, nor Republican at this point. What you COULD do is tell the rest of us Christians what you really think....something...

I already told you: because you've been needing a godly rebuke. Are you sure you were a police officer once? Didn't they teach you observation skills? Look! I've not given them pos reps in thread. I'm 'getting' them because I'm saying something they believe you need to hear! Simply...

Why do you? I'd suggest because you've needed a godly rebuke. QUIT posturing, fighting, being mean, divisive, arrogant and childish. This, your response, is just more on par with being a child in a man's body. Knock. It. Off. Be the man God has called you to be. I don't care if you...

Your theology instruction and bible reading is sorely lacking. You can 'try' and be as arrogant as you like. You have a lot of anger, CW. You even attack the body with NO discernment whatsoever. It is a sin. You are sinning. Adding to the Bible. You did. Just now. It is wrong...

And when we don't have them? When the nation would (and does) prefer another? How do we vote? What do we do?

Paul was a Roman citizen, and they were about to execute him as well. He submitted. In America, we have a government quite different 'by the people, for the people.' For me, it complicates things but I'm convinced Christians aren't so much caught up in politics, as in Christ. It doesn't...

There are a lot of talking points, but how would a Christian party start? I'm not sure. You are right, we don't have one, how do we get one? (are we off topic from your thread direction? If so, ignore all this)

What you 'think' and what you know of scriptures are two different things. It doesn't make you a non-Christian (that is simply ignorance on your part of the scriptures - read them more). Not arrogant but accurate: I'm much more literate in the scriptures than you are. Exodus applies to...

Again, it is part and parcel to coming to Christ. Nobody will call on the name of the Lord to be saved, if they don't want either Him, or His salvation, so the two are intertwined inseparably. As I said, Obedience needs defining. To me it is just listening and being on board. Read...

I didn't say it wasn't, I said the Holy Spirit in a person causes them to go the right way. "If not" then they need to worry about whether they are filled with Christ. Richard Grenell needs a talk with God. Perhaps. Why? Because there are a lot of things that can happen between now and then...

Being in Christ, one that is in Him wants to follow Him. If not? There is a problem. People in Christ don't want excuses for sin, they want Jesus. Do you know the difference between an earthly kingdom and His? He said to pray for our leaders (not complain as much). We need to pray...

"Obedience" is a difficult theological concept, because it needs to be defined and afterwards, clarified as to the context. Obedience for the Lord Jesus Christ simply means 'listened and did.' For you and I, obedience is part of what we are able to do as new creations. We cannot please...

You might want to post titles that way, because, of course, I agree. :Z

It was given by Moses and Paul. Does it stop a bullet? No, but God does. I simply believe God. It doesn't mean if someone dies young, they were disobedient, it simply means as a rule, God makes a promise of long life to those who honor their parents. Simple enough without discounting...

There is no such thing as cheap Grace. It always bothers me when someone says that it didn't cost Jesus everything. Does it mean, however, that you can 'earn it?' No. Don't try, ACW, or it is works salvation. We can do nothing to gain His grace. It is freely given. If by that you...
