Have you thought today about the fact that God delights in His children?

My dear American friends,

We British Christians would get excited when, once a year, Queen Elizabeth would make a mild but sincere reference to the love of Jesus Christ in her Christmas address.

In Charlie Kirks' Memorial service, watched by tens of millions, I just heard:
- Multiple clear presentations of the gospel from men like @robmccoyus and @DrFrankTurek with clear calls to repentance and faith
- Worship songs full of Scripture sung by tens of thousands live and millions at home
- Personal testimonies of lives transformed by the work of Christ and the witness of believers
- Demonstration and explanation of the value of marriage, child-rearing and family
- Calls to Romans 13 for the government to bear the sword for the protection of good and punishment of the wicked
- Declarations of spiritual warfare on the forces of evil and promises to endure no matter the cost
- Calls to be prophets and call the nation to repent
- More Scripture references and Bible readings than I can count
- And a widow publicly forgiving her husband's killer because Christ forgave his killers on the cross.

All of it done before, and by, the most powerful people in your nation and the world.

You guys should be on your knees thanking God for your country. It is a light to the world.

Never stop fighting for it.

Writing study materials through Romans and every week it feels like I read "The following passage is one of the most challenging and debated in the NT"

Since Musk took over, I've had one new follower, tying my previous all-time record. This really is a game changer.

@samstephens91 "So who is your primary care physician?"
"I haven't gotten one since I moved to the area."
"How long have you been here?"

It is never compassionate to side with someone against reality.

@samstephens91 Got ya. Didn't realize the red-letter thing was still a thing. Normally when I see this logic, both popularly and academically, its the "canon within a canon" approach giving Jesus prominence so someone's least favorite teaching from the letters gets cut. Sorry if I got jumpy.

[Ben Hicks @PastorBenHicks]

@samstephens91 I guess I don't understand the point then. Normally that distinction is made with the point of pitting Jesus against Paul. If Paul's words carry just as much weight as Jesus, why make a distinction? Genuinely asking. I might be missing context for your tweet.

@halizahick Whose birthday was it? I think that's the real question on everyone's mind.
