...problem is that we have failed......

Now you're starting to sound like me. Just a bit ago you scourged me for saying we have fail.

That message is from hell. Satan is the accuser and I want nothing to do with such a message.
Do not imagine that your words or actions save anyone. God and God alone saves/redeems.
We have a task. We are ambassadors of reconciliation.

Like I said and now you've said. We have failed. We are failing to reach the next generation. You are right, we need to preach but also live the gospel and also defend the gospel. We're failing everywhere.

I didn't realize there were currently transgenders in the military. He's going to catch hell from the media and Hollywood. But I think most of the country will support this. I'd be curious where the public stands. Even more where Christians stand.

Hollywood stars took to social media Wednesday to express outrage over President Donald Trump’s announcement that transgender people will not be allowed to serve in the U.S. military, reversing former President Obama’s decision last year allowing them to do so.
“After consultation with my Generals and military experts, please be advised that the United States Government will not accept or allow Transgender individuals to serve in any capacity in the U.S. Military,” President Trump tweeted Wednesday morning. “Our military must be focused on decisive and overwhelming victory and cannot be burdened with the tremendous medical cost and disruption that transgender in the military would entail. Thank you.”


The news spurred some stars to viciously attack the president, with some calling Trump a cruel bigot.

Star Trek actor and gay activist George Takei sent what appeared to be a threat to Trump, warning that he “just pissed off the wrong community” and said the president “will regret” this action.

Takei also tweeted: “History shall record that you are not only the stupidest, most incompetent president ever, but also the cruelest and pettiest. #Shame.” The actor also issued a call to action:

Director Paul Feig called Trump’s decision “disgraceful,” while noted Trump-basher and actor Rob Reiner called the president a “hateful human being.”

Below is a roundup of the rage Hollywood stars sent toward President Trump in the wake of his announcement.
Trump definitely has a pair. I commend him.

However, God is redeeming whom he has chosen to redeem. Though we fail miserably, God does not fail and he redeems whom he wills.

There is a legitimate argument regarding cost of medical procedures and drugs. I do not believe society should pay for the procedures to happen and be maintained.
The vitriol comes from those who are mentioned in Romans 1.

Actually the costs for this are covered under Medicare and many state Medicaid plans, as well as private insurers.

True, but a soldier is property of the US government. A soldier cannot incapacitate him or herself while on duty without facing the possibility of court marshall.
I had a buddy who was nearly court marshalled because he severely sunburned, which put him in the infirmary.
The soldier must be able to perform his/her duties when active.
