I was in a truck stop back in the day before Christ, and a fight broke out between some of the long-haired guys I was with and some truck drivers. Chairs were flying, plate glass windows were flexing ready to break... A waitress grabbed a pistol and holding it over her head, cleared the entire...

I can face death upholding Christ's teachings. Can you?

If you swing a ball bat, they'll leave without any violence.

Do you have guns? If so why? Christians in the NT never used violence to defend themselves. They had the courage to die first.

You can do that apart from hitting anyone. But your mind sees only violence.

People can isolate themselves in their cars.

Jesus was numbered with the transgressors. The two swords helped frame him. Read the entire context.

Drove out does not necessarily mean what you assume it means. How about Peter?

Just telling him to be careful. Open a thread so we can debate it.

I park some distance away where his dog attacked us a few times. And we had exchanges from a short distance. But I saw one of the most obvious miracles of my life putting it to an end.

He drove the cattle out and turned over their tables. But what did he tell Peter after he cut off Malchus' ear? He told Him and us to put away the sword. Don't cower behind a gun, be willing to die for Christ's word, and become courageous.

Voting shows a person's heart. But it doesn't matter. God controls the vote so His pick always becomes the winner. It's probably not good if we do not pray for those elected. Suck it up and pray for Biden.

If she divorces you and marries him, both will be living in a state of adultery. If that happens and you remarry too, you and your new wife will also be in a state of adultery (Matt. 19:9). The best thing is to forgive, pray, and do what it takes to make it work.

If God has a permissive will, He would need to have based His eternal decree on it, learning what each person might or might not do and adjusting His plan to accommodate them. He would not be omniscient in that case. And wicked people would be controlling Him.

Limited atonement means salvation by grace. Universal atonement means salvation by works. Here’s why. Limited atonement justifies sinners who cannot save themselves. Resulting in a way for God to remain just and save them instead of sending them to hell. Universal atonement does not save...

"Christians" killing "Christians" in WWI, WWII, the Revolutionary War, the Civil War? And the same mindset flourishes today in most "churches". Especially with the bloodthirsty "Christian" Zionists.
