@Maks_NAFO_FELLA To win a war, you must mobilise young men from the age of 18 upward, why let them flee the country, who is going to defent the Republic?
@EdwardJDavey One thing I know for sure is that as long as Europe continues pushing gayish and useless agenda it will never win a war. Wars are fought and won by men and not by states lead by effeminate men.😠
I return for another two-hour work block, go for a walk, prepare supper, and go for a swim.
After eating supper, I finish with a final one-hour work session in the office.
I get to the office as early as possible and work for the first three hours. I then take a one-hour breakfast break.
I go back to work for two hours, then take an hour break (maybe swim), and have a late lunch.

Three HUGE reasons why you should read the Old Testament:
1. It makes up the majority of the Word of God.
2. It’s filled with invaluable wisdom, doctrines, stories, and prophecies.
3. Without it, we can’t properly understand God, the New Testament, or even the gospel.
Signs of a biblical church:
1. The preaching starts with the Bible, explains it, and applies it.
2. The worship is theologically rich.
3. They evangelize often.
4. They practice church discipline.
5. They take holiness seriously.
6. They're focused on the gospel.
Do you ever struggle with doubt when it comes to Jesus? If so, you are in very good company. John the Baptist did too.
The Gospels make this clear. We read about it today in Bible in One Year. In Luke 7, John was suffering in the darkness of Herod’s prison. His head would soon literally be on the chopping block. Meanwhile Jesus was roaming free, making disciples, working miracles, all while John was incarcerated.
John sent two of his disciples to Jesus with this question: “Are you the one who is to come, or shall we look for another?” (Luke 7:19–20).
John was not a stone statue of certainty. He was flesh and blood, just like we are. And remember, he came “in the spirit and power of Elijah” (Luke 1:17), so it is no surprise that what Elijah experienced, John experienced too.
Elijah fled in fear from Jezebel and wrestled with despair (1 Kings 19:1–10). John, his New Testament counterpart, found himself in the same valley of fear, confusion, and doubt.
The same thing happens to us. Some days our faith feels strong and steady. Other days darkness closes in and doubts rise to the surface. Sometimes life is calm and trust comes easily. Other times pain, fear, or confusion make faith feel like an uphill battle.
But here is the good news: Christ remains utterly faithful, even when we are not. As Scripture says, “If we are faithless, he remains faithful, for he cannot deny himself” (2 Timothy 2:13).
Jesus has no dark days. He never wavers in his love for you. He does not doubt his commitment to you. When storms come, your heart trembles, and your grip on Christ is slipping, it is he who holds you fast.
He carries you through the nights of fear until the light returns.
Jesus is your good, gracious, and faithful Savior.
