    What is "Sovereignty"??

    Dave, you are making assertions without biblical support. What we know is that God created Adam in His image. We know that, like the angels, God ordained the capacity for Adam (and all his offspring) to rebel against God's command. God foreknew that Adam would rebel, just as He foreknew that...

    More black on white attacks

    I understand there was a brutal murder. There are evil people with every shade of skin pigmentation. There are wicked gang members in every shade of color. If another skin tone, other than white skin took economic and political control in the US and if our society continues to use skin...

    More black on white attacks

    The issue is Marxism veiled as a race issue. It seeks to divide, then conquer. It's a tactic communists have used worldwide. There is no doubt that US society, which was built on racism, is now seeing other groups accept the premise that skin color determines power in this nation. Rather than...

    What is "Sovereignty"??

    You are dodging and avoiding by not directly answering what I asked. You said you had one question, which you claim a Calvinist pastor did not answer to your satisfaction. I am simply asking you this: What was the question you asked the pastor? Was it that you gave him a hypothetical scenario...

    What is "Sovereignty"??

    What was the "question" that caused you to ignore the scripture when the pastor answered you? It seems silly to reject so much scripture, just because a local shepherd didn't answer a question to your satisfaction. Please share the one question that became your obstacle.

    "No Justice-No Peace?" * JUST WHO ARE THEY KIDDING???? *

    ‘“Piety that does not produce a passion for social justice and practical mercy is useless and displeasing to God...the authenticity of our worship on Sunday is validated or not by our justice [actions] on Monday." ~ Pastor John Piper

    Thomas Sowell: 'Systemic Racism' Has 'No Meaning'

    He's saying that apartheid was good for black South Africans and Jim Crowe was good for black Americans. He is a voice no one should ever pay attention to regarding human relationships.

    "No Justice-No Peace?" * JUST WHO ARE THEY KIDDING???? *

    I would argue that the founders understood and espoused Christian virtues. They held the correct premise that humans, by nature, are morally corrupt and need checks against gaining absolute power. This does not, however, mean that people were Christians. Yes, there were some founders who were...

    Thomas Sowell: 'Systemic Racism' Has 'No Meaning'

    The American Indian Movement, created by Vernon and Clyde Bellecourt of the White Earth Nation of Ojibwe and they have been protesting against the dishonoring of indigenous peoples since the late 1960s. You have no idea what you are talking about.

    What is "Sovereignty"??

    This is false. A child cannot be adopted unless the parents proceed with the adoption. You speak as though God were evil for choosing to make one alive with Christ and give one the gift of faith so that they will believe. Should God leave you dead in your trespasses and sins so that you rot and...

    What is "Sovereignty"??

    God gives to us the capacity to act according to our nature. God's plans work perfectly within what we imagine to be freedom. As Sovereign King, God tells us that our works will be judged and that which we used to build the Kingdom (wood, hay and stubble) will be burned up, but we will survive...

    Adoption

    Here's a nice explanation from Ligeonier. Adoption Four weeks ago, I found myself in court. Don’t worry; I hadn’t been arrested for crimes against theology. This was a civic court, and I was there to witness something remarkable: two Christian friends finalizing the adoption of their dear...

    What is "Sovereignty"??

    You would have to have God answer this question. However, I do know that God always accomplishes exactly what he has ordained. There is no surprise, no need to readjust and reconfigure. God takes the rebellion of man and works it perfectly into his fulfillment of his will.

    Thomas Sowell: 'Systemic Racism' Has 'No Meaning'

    Even in this video you hear Denzel Washington say "the system is rigged...but" Your video addresses a different issue than systemic racism. Your video addresses individual accountability. These are two different issues. A person can be subject to systemic racism and still be successful. A...

    What is "Sovereignty"??

    Being Sovereign does not mean that sin would never be permitted. When God wills for something to happen, it happens. For example, God would not allow Balaam to curse Israel. At the same time, God willed for Nebuchadnezzar to remove Judah into exile. It was by God's ordination that Eve and Adam...

    Thomas Sowell: 'Systemic Racism' Has 'No Meaning'

    Give us a quantifiable, testable definition that you don't think racist thoughts. I will wait for you to share. You are attempting to force a biological science test upon a social science issue. It is not possible to accomplish, which is precisely why you are narrowing the field. It is no...

    Thomas Sowell: 'Systemic Racism' Has 'No Meaning'

    One does not have to agree with the Marxist group known as Black Lives Matter to agree with the obvious reality that systemic racism exists in the United States. The evidence is in the countless stories and experiences of people of color living in the US. Hide behind a stated desire for an...
