Today I’m doing anesthesia for someone with a failing heart.

So last night, I laid in bed worrying about how I’d keep them alive.

To be honest, I didn’t want to go to work.

But then I felt the Lord speak.

He showed me all the people going to work today, doing jobs that from the outside, look pointless and pay nothing.

And yet, they have a purpose.

And it isn’t to have influence or solve the world’s problems.

It’s to serve.

You can be picking up trash or performing brain surgery and be doing it to serve.

And that’s why Christians should be getting up everyday.

Not to accomplish greats things for their own sake, but to find a way to serve.

If that’s your goal, you’ll never hate your job, because your job isn’t about you.

Walking into the hospital this morning, I kept my eyes on my job to serve today.

I no longer needed my day to go well because my day isn’t about me.

It’s about everyone else.

That’s freedom.

Every semester I get questions about the biblical use of "pastor," "elder," and "overseer."

This is usually b/c a student's church is wondering whether women can serve as "pastors" without being "elders."

The short answer is "no."

The long answer starts with this graphic 👇🏻🧵

JUST IN: Police visited Maine gunman's home SIX WEEKS before massacre after he told doctors he was going to 'SNAP AND COMMIT a mass shooting.'

Law enforcement chiefs in Maine issued an awareness alert for Robert Card, a U.S. Army reservist, in September after threats were made.

Despite visits and increased patrols, Card remained elusive.

During a welfare check, it was noted that he typically answered the door with a concealed handgun.

What is replacement theology?

Replacement theology (also known as supersessionism) essentially teaches that the church has replaced Israel in God’s plan. Adherents of replacement theology believe the Jews are no longer God’s chosen people, and God does not have specific future plans for the nation of Israel. Among the different views of the relationship between the church and Israel are the church has replaced Israel (replacement theology), the church is an expansion of Israel (covenant theology), or the church is completely different and distinct from Israel (dispensationalism/premillennialism).

Replacement theology teaches that the church is the replacement for Israel and that the many promises made to Israel in the Bible are fulfilled in the Christian church, not in Israel. The prophecies in Scripture concerning the blessing and restoration of Israel to the Promised Land are spiritualized or allegorized into promises of God’s blessing for the church. Major problems exist with this view, such as the continuing existence of the Jewish people throughout the centuries and especially with the revival of the modern state of Israel. If Israel has been condemned by God and there is no future for the Jewish nation, how do we explain the supernatural survival of the Jewish people over the past 2,000 years despite the many attempts to destroy them? How do we explain why and how Israel reappeared as a nation in the 20th century after not existing for 1,900 years?

The view that Israel and the church are different is clearly taught in the New Testament. Biblically speaking, the church is distinct from Israel, and the terms church and Israel are never to be confused or used interchangeably. We are taught from Scripture that the church is an entirely new creation that came into being on the day of Pentecost and will continue until it is taken to heaven at the rapture (Ephesians 1:9–11; 1 Thessalonians 4:13–17). The church has no relationship to the curses and blessings for Israel. The covenants, promises, and warnings of the Mosaic Covenant were valid only for Israel. Israel has been temporarily set aside in God’s program during these past 2,000 years of dispersion (see Romans 11).

Contrary to replacement theology, dispensationalism teaches that, after the rapture (1 Thessalonians 4:13–18), God will restore Israel as the primary focus of His plan. The first event at this time is the tribulation (Revelation chapters 6–19). The world will be judged for rejecting Christ, while Israel is prepared through the trials of the great tribulation for the second coming of the Messiah. Then, when Christ does return to the earth at the end of the tribulation, Israel will be ready to receive Him. The remnant of Israel who survive the tribulation will be saved, and the Lord will establish His kingdom on this earth with Jerusalem as its capital. With Christ reigning as King, Israel will be the leading nation, and representatives from all nations will come to Jerusalem to honor and worship the King—Jesus Christ. The church will return with Christ and will reign with Him for a literal thousand years (Revelation 20:1–5).

Both the Old Testament and the New Testament support a premillennial/dispensational understanding of God’s plan for Israel. The strongest support for premillennialism is found in the clear teaching of Revelation 20:1–7, where it says six times that Christ’s kingdom will last 1,000 years. After the tribulation the Lord will return and establish His kingdom with the nation of Israel, Christ will reign over the whole earth, and Israel will be the leader of the nations. The church will reign with Him for a literal thousand years. The church has not replaced Israel in God's plan. While God may be focusing His attention primarily on the church in this dispensation of grace, God has not forgotten Israel and will one day restore Israel to His intended role as the nation He has chosen (Romans 11).

Dr. Anthony Fauci suggests we ignore the Cochrane masks study, even though it found masks made "little to no difference" in preventing COVID-19 in a meta-analysis of 78 randomized controlled trials featuring over 600,000 participants because "there are a number of studies that show that masks work."

It's worth noting that Cochrane reviews are widely regarded as the highest quality scientific evidence available.

Why would Fauci suggest that we ignore the Cochrane masks study?

[Former Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene🇺🇸 @FmrRepMTG]

In an email to a friend on Feb. 5, 2020, Dr. Fauci admits MASKS DON’T WORK!

But he still forced them on the American people relentlessly, including school children, month after month.

Now, there’s another push to force us to mask up.

NEVER AGAIN!

I've hardly ever seen a so-called "deconstruction" (where somebody leaves Christianity, they deconstruct their faith) that does not somehow bring up sexual behavior as a reason they left Christianity.
