    USA Trumps Invites Russia to War Against Our Allies

    All right, but I wasn't addressing your thoughts specifically. Mine was a generalized comment about a number of different people who enjoy picking apart anything that Trump may have said.

    USA Trumps Invites Russia to War Against Our Allies

    Let's try not to overdramatize this. It was a frustrated, snap reply to someone who had the gall to tell the American president to his face that the USA (which is less threatened by a Russian invasion than almost any of the other NATO members and already pays more to NATO than any other one)...

    Supernatural warning

    I feel that way also. There are events that could be explained as good luck or 'just the way things work' in the natural world. At the same time, I have to wonder at certain developments that were far more meaningful in my life, and which made possible later developments that were positive by...

    USA Trumps Invites Russia to War Against Our Allies

    But of course, the armchair quarterbacks know precisely what the consequences were going to be of Trump making a casual comment to a third party, right? :rolleyes: C'mon. That's certainly possible. At the same time, it's too bad that the comments I read and replied to didn't take that tempered...

    USA Trumps Invites Russia to War Against Our Allies

    Really? Then why is it that Putin didn't invade Ukraine while Trump was president, but did so during the administrations of both Obama (before Trump) and Biden (after Trump)? And yes, I know that Ukraine is not a NATO member, but since technicalities aren't supposed to matter in this...

    USA Trumps Invites Russia to War Against Our Allies

    which is not what I commented on! and this was Trump himself commenting on something he'd said years earlier. At that time, it was rightly understood, both here and abroad, as a typical Trump kind of joke. Very well. You can say that, and you do have a point, but it does not address the...

    USA Trumps Invites Russia to War Against Our Allies

    No. And it didn't happen in this case either. Everyone should have figured out by now that the opposition, being faced with having to field an incompetent against Trump this November, has little else to offer the voters except for fables like this one? In a way, I can't be too surprised, given...

    The shortest verse

    Morality

    Would you say, then, that choosing to transport highly dangerous explosives on a public highway or driving while drunk shouldn't be regulated or prohibited by government since, after all, these are the preferences of some people, and no one else is harmed until they actually are harmed (at which...

    What do we tell unsaved about biblical election?

    Yes, but you've refused, when asked, to cite any verses that substantiate your claims. What you've said instead is "It's the scriptural view," and then called people Calvinists who are not Calvinists, and also said you believe what you do because of what your denomination teaches. If that is...

    What do we tell unsaved about biblical election?

    You've already explained to us that you cannot refer to any verses from the word of God that substantiate your view. How would the ability of a human to reject the Faith prove that God does not give the gift of Faith to certain people? Well, the idea of salvation by works is not very...

    What do we tell unsaved about biblical election?

    Just as within Catholicism there are many different doctrines. None of this does anything to settle the question about what the correct teaching is. If you cannot support your POV with the word of God, why should we discuss this matter a moment longer? Okay. Maybe we should just leave it at...

    What do we tell unsaved about biblical election?

    Hmmm. That's quite a misuse of the term Faith. You maybe have forgotten that Christ is God. Yes, but no one here is denying that. I guess I can't vouch for what unidentified people might have said or meant or that you are correctly repeating it. In any case, it doesn't decide the question...

    Morality

    If it's based on a religious principle, it's often called moral. If it's based on some socio-political concept not dependent upon a religious belief, it's often said to be ethical.

    What do we tell unsaved about biblical election?

    That again is a non-sequitur. All men being drawn to Christ does not mean that all who are drawn will become and remain disciples. For that, it takes saving Faith. He is referencing those whom the Father gave him out of all of mankind. Had there been no such selection process on the part of the...

    What do we tell unsaved about biblical election?

    Your opinion is your opinion, of course, but most Bible commentators disagree with it. As Gill, for one, explains that passage from John--"I will draw all men to me; which is not to be understood of the concourse of people about him, when on the cross, some for him, and others against him, some...

    What do we tell unsaved about biblical election?

    John 6:37 “All that the Father gives Me will come to Me, and the one who comes to Me I will certainly not cast out.” Acts of the Apostles 13:48 “When the Gentiles heard this, they began rejoicing and glorifying the word of the Lord; and as many as had been appointed to eternal life believed.”...

    USA Hypothetical:

    The Vice-Presidential nomination often is a matter of ticket-balancing, of countering some weakness in the Presidential nominee, or is made in order to appeal to some special group of voters. It's rarely someone who was the second choice for President in the Party's nominating convention. If...

    USA Hypothetical:

    Assuming that it happens very shortly before election day or on election day as Lamb suggested, Kamala becomes President and the Electors (members of the Electoral College) in each state cast their votes for whomever they choose to be the next president (and likewise for VP). If there isn't a...

    A Lutheran Roadblock

    Luther is much in evidence in today's Lutheran churches, which is not the case with every Christian denomination and their own founders. Still, he's not considered by Lutherans to have been perfect. And he was a normal German of his time as well. So that, and his disappointment, late in life, at...
