    IBD/TIPP Poll Shows Biden 48%, Trump 46%: 'Biden Is Leaking Democratic Support'

    I'm sorry, I should explain with this quote, "Two weeks before Election Day, early votes have come in from almost every state, and Democrats have a clear edge in ballots that have already been cast, according to NBC News' early voting tracker. More than 29 million people from 45 states had...

    The Third Party Fishing For Dissatisfied Christians

    Man where to start. The Republicans to their credit are social conservatives, which is biblical. I'm a former yellow dog pro life Dem. The Dem party hates us Populists now and clearly doesn't want our vote since 2016. Reps tried hard to get our vote in 2016 and won key swing states. Reps...

    Does God Have Libertarian Free Will?

    I was making that point with Derf B. That a God Whose nature exacts the world we live in has His nature as His God. It makes no sense, because it makes the world the way it is and us and our fates as necessary, like God. The idea proffered by C.S. Lewis of one possible world falls apart. IMO...

    Does God Have Libertarian Free Will?

    Very good point. Is Sovereignty a God stuck in a single future due to His nature? Or a God that does all He wants all the time, choosing possible futures as He pleases? At least to an American mind I see option two as more sovereign. Thank you.

    Mikes to be turned off

    Honestly, I was aggravated at the both of them. They both were too aggressive and interrupted each other. I like this change. Hopefully things will be more civil. I was offended for instance when Biden called the President a clown.

    IBD/TIPP Poll Shows Biden 48%, Trump 46%: 'Biden Is Leaking Democratic Support'

    It will all come down to election day turnout. How many Reps turn out that day, since only a quarter of early ballots are voted by Reps.

    The Third Party Fishing For Dissatisfied Christians

    I'm not very tempted to vote third party. Yeah, both sides stink this time. Reminds me of 2016. The Dems are not learning to be less immoral, and the Reps are just not in line with the example of Jesus Christ IMO. The swamp goes on, and I really hoped President Trump might have drained it.

    Get used to it

    So what do you believe the bible says about the End of the Age?

    Repentance For the Forgiveness of Sins

    Having been an unbeliever as a liberal Christian. In my experience, though anecdotal, the true repentance came out of my faith. How do you not change by truly accepting the Gospel? I think there is some good in exploring the various stages of salvation, the Ordo Salutis. That said, the bible...

    Donald Trump could face a revolt from senior voters on November 3.

    This great article I found helps explain what's going on. Florida’s senior vote shifting from Trump to Biden, polls show. But is it really?

    Donald Trump could face a revolt from senior voters on November 3.

    I was taught by a nurse the Villages have some of the highest STD infections of anywhere in Central Florida. Morals are not necessarily a given among baby boomers.

    How Should We Care for the Lowly?

    I have to press you a little on your explanation. I wonder how you would respond to two big issues for Baptists. 1. What of banning gay marriage? 2. Why outlaw abortion? It seems those two are social level concerns that we have a say in due to living in a Democracy. I look forward to your reply!

    How to Explain Key Doctrinal Differences Among Some Baptists

    In another thread, I mistakenly said I was more "conservative" than many frequenting Southern Baptist affiliated churches. To give you an idea of what I am referring to, let me give you some info on what I meant by the term "conservative." I have been in SBC churches where I had to leave on...

    2 Cor. 5:18-19

    I'll be blunt, because His Word says so. Not everything is logical from our limited human perspective. God's Word says it is so, I conform to His Word.

    2 Cor. 5:18-19

    This thread I made a couple months back explains why I am confident my faith is not a good work in any way deserving anything, God in His grace credits me righteousness in a way I cannot boast be for Him of in anyway. A Biblical Defense of Synergism #2

    Judge Amy used an offensive term

    We all know the term should be "sexual sin preference." Although, that will hit too hard since many politicians aren't going to fess up to "adultery" or "fornication." No, in this increasingly God-forsaken world we have to ignore the obvious, that people are drawn to some sins more than others...

    How Should We Care for the Lowly?

    As a Christian, I wonder how we should care for the lowly as the Word commands. By lowly, I mean the sick, orphaned, mentally ill, widowed, disabled, elderly, and the poor (willing to work for their gleanings). I have personally heard two strains of thought on this. 1. Tax people and make a...

    How Trump Supporters View COVID Masks

    According to CNN, cloth bandannas hardly prevent germs getting on others when you cough or sneeze. Surgical masks do much better at controlling your germs getting on others. Only fitted N95 masks can keep you safe according to them. Otherwise, a mask is about your snot and spittle being kept off...
