    Should Biden be the Democrat Nominee or Step Down?

    I can't see him agreeing to step down...not so long as he's able to stand and (sort of) talk. As it is, he already vacations as much as he performs the work of a president, and the media make sure not to ever make anything of that. Plus, there are two events coming up that his supporters and...

    Who will it be? (Vice-President nominee)

    Thanks, folks, for replying to my message. It didn't seem to cause much of a ripple with the membership overall, even though the media has talked this subject to death lately. But I should restate one thing about it. I don't have any idea myself who the "lucky winner" will be, and I was just...

    Hmmmm.

    Who will it be? (Vice-President nominee)

    Apparently, the person chosen by Donald Trump will at last be revealed this week. Who do you think he will choose, after all the speculation that's been offered by the media during the past several weeks? Just a name please. It doesn't matter if you favor that person, the Republican ticket...

    Isaiah 28 - Do Your Church Teach Bible Line Upon Line, Chapter By Chapter?

    So now you've softened your position to one of "In order to understand Scripture, it's necessary to read all of it." I think that, by and large, there's little objection to that idea.

    Isaiah 28 - Do Your Church Teach Bible Line Upon Line, Chapter By Chapter?

    Leaving out something from any passage that is critical wouldn't be right, I think we all can agree. But at the same time, thinking that there's something amiss with comparing different passages by different authors when dealing with the same topic seems shortsighted. It's all God's word. In...

    Isaiah 28 - Do Your Church Teach Bible Line Upon Line, Chapter By Chapter?

    Generally not, although that's a format often used in Bible Study groups. Studying line by line, verse by verse, and never departing from it, does not allow for comparing different verses found in other Gospels or Epistles, for example. And making such connections is often essential for...

    kingdom of heaven

    Not likely that it's separated from himself, but the kingdom, being not a literal government, etc., can quite understandably be identified with Jesus and not just as an entity ruled over by him or something like that. Therefore, I tend to agree with you in a way but disagree in another way.

    kingdom of heaven

    However, in Luke, chapter 17, verse 21, we find an even more famous statement from Scripture that addresses the issue-- "and no one will announce, ‘Look, here it is,’ or, ‘There it is.’ For behold, the kingdom of God is among you.”** **or "in your midst" And the meaning? The kingdom...

    American flag in sanctuary?

    If you say so, but I can't imagine what kind of church that might be. 😮

    Hunter Biden GUILTY! Should Biden pardon his son?

    ?? He had a presumption of innocence until a jury decided the matter or guilt or innocence. That's already been decided. Thus, the Prez cannot easily pardon him by saying that Hunter didn't do what the trial decided that he actually did--which was to buy the gun while using hard drugs...

    Hunter Biden GUILTY! Should Biden pardon his son?

    That's probably so. About that... I didn't follow the court proceedings with any particular interest, but I did hear on some network that the law in question had been passed precisely in order to stop people from buying guns when they were on dope. So that would likely make the argument you...

    Hunter Biden GUILTY! Should Biden pardon his son?

    There's usually at least some kind of talking point suggesting that a pardon makes sense--advanced age, repentance, ignorance of the law, previous service to the nation, something. What would it be in Hunter's case?

    When joining a new church...

    No, I need to settle in and see what the congregation is really like. Sometimes, the first impression is strongly positive and only later do the troublesome characteristics become apparent. I don't want to have accepted a responsibility and then back out. In fact, I don't "join" right away...

    American flag in sanctuary?

    Quite a few people don't understand what that phrase actually means. You wrote: "If the distinction between church and state requires no Ten commandments in public school hallways, how is it that such a distinction doesn't require no American flag in the Church?" So, your view apparently is...

    American flag in sanctuary?

    What would cause you to think that merely disagreeing with your post had to signal something as glamorous or personal as an attempt to make you feel "devastated?" LOL. I might have opted for a longer post, but there was so much wrong with your theorizing that it seemed to me easier just to...

    Baptismal gifts?

    Some sort of token would be appropriate, IMO. Not the kind of gift that you'd give on the occasion of a wedding, for example. Maybe some nice little item you'd find at a Christian book store.

    No Olympics for Catlin

    There's been a lot of controversy over Caitlin allegedly having been mistreated in the league, the amount of playing time included among the criticisms; and whether or not that's fair, having her sit on the bench much of the time during the Olympics (when every one of the players on the floor...

    Recommended tire brand?

    The brand probably doesn't have anything to do with it, in as much as every manufacturer has a range of different tires in its line-up. Some of them are meant to give long wear, others perform better in certain weather, etc. But all of these companies identify these characteristics online.

    American flag in sanctuary?

    I guess that I don't think about it much. However, the question did get me to check into the situation in a number of churches that I'm familiar with. Somewhat surprising to me, hardly any of them displayed any flags at all. Those that did display the American flag at the left in the...
