We are all free to vote for the candidate of our choice and for any reason. However, when voters use lies and deception to rationalize why they are voting for a candidate who spews lies and exhibits deception, that reflects more negatively on the voter than the candidate.
We are at WAR!
Unfortunately, talking heads, pundits, commentators, gurus, 'experts', media personalities, and politicians don't understand what kind.
We are in the midst of SPIRITUAL WARFARE and there are only two sides!!
Ephesians 6: 10-18 explains...
I (student) watched it live in my 12th grade physics class in 1986. I (teacher) watched the plane crash into the second twin tower live in physics class in 2001. The first was tragedy which God can heal. The second was pure evil which God will smite!
In fact NASA had arranged for schools across the country to broadcast the launch: "The ill-fated January 18, 1986, Challenger space shuttle launch was watched live on television by millions of American schoolchildren." https://t.co/lqWPZH5Pnm
The sun was free. They sold you SPF 50 and a vitamin D deficiency.
Sleep was free. They sold you an app, a pill, and a wearable that tells you your sleep was bad.
Walking was free. They sold you a treadmill, a fitness tracker, and a £180 pair of trainers.
Fasting was free. They sold you meal replacement shakes and the anxiety that skipping breakfast would wreck your metabolism.
Cold water was free. They sold you a £3,000 plunge barrel and a podcast episode about it.
Silence was free. They sold you a meditation app with a premium tier.
Animal fat was cheap. They sold you seed oils, then supplements to replace what the animal fat contained.
Tallow was cheap. They sold you a seventeen-step skincare routine and a clinical trial proving your face needs ceramides.
Meat was cheap. They are currently selling you the idea that you shouldn't eat it.
The 20th century removed access to everything the body needs to function.
The 21st century is selling it back, one subscription at a time.
Your great-grandmother had none of the products.
She had all of the things.
@EWErickson We are responsible for sharing the Good News. Others will be accountable for everything that follows the hearing (double-meaning intended).
I understand if your 4) is different from mine. If your 1-3) are different, your priorities are enervated:
1) GOD (of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob)
2) #FamilyFirst
3) U.S.A. (congrats Olympic hockey teams)
4) @universityofga (HBTD!)
Taking stuff that does not belong to you (especially money derived from mandatory taxes) is called STEALING. God gave us a top-10 and this is #8 on the list. Doing so is wrong and evil. There is no rationale that makes it right. #AbsoluteTruth
There is a unique exception (3.) for mandated reporters. You can be fired and criminally charged for failure to report (i.e. abuse) something you know or should have known to report > O.C.G.A. 19-7-5
There’s some great lessons here to be learned by all you professionals out there. 1. Stay professional. 2. As a “professional“ you represent a profession-do it well. 3. You never will get fired over something you didn’t say. https://t.co/emcUS7qmC8
Yeah...the USA Today once 'edited' my name and changed it from what I submitted myself to what some editor thought must be correct. Whether from ignorance, stupidity, hubris, or an IDGAS attitude, most people care very much about what affects them individually and not much else.
"And God will use this persecution to show his justice and to make you worthy of his Kingdom, for which you are suffering. In his justice he will pay back those who persecute you."
2 Thessalonians 1: 5-6
Jesus was slaughtered (and rose from the grave) for all of us...because we are all sinners. He also instructed us to "go and sin no more". This part is quite challenging for people who have given their life to Him. It is impossible for those who have not!
The antichrist may not actually be one person. It may be an ideological movement that is antithetical to the structure of family, the biblical definition of marriage, the purity and sanctity of children, and what our senses tell us about this (fallen) world.
For those sitting in the back:
1) Don't hurt children (including via surgery).
2) Don't take stuff that doesn't belong to you (including tax revenue).
3) When you make a mess, clean it up (without committing a murder or pardoning a family member).
