Our battle is not against flesh & blood
but against the principalities, against the powers,
against the rulers of the darkness of this world;
against spiritual wickedness in high places.
—Ephesians 6:12
Therefore, take unto you the full armor of God...
—Ephesians 6:13a
It's not just "a Bible verse"—
GENESIS 9:12-16 reclaims the Rainbow:
And God said, This is the token of the covenant which I make between me and you and every living creature that is with you, for perpetual generations: I do set my rainbow in the cloud, and it shall be for a token of a covenant between me and the earth. And it shall come to pass, when I bring a cloud over the earth, that the rainbow shall be seen in the cloud: and I will remember my covenant, which is between me and you and every living creature of all flesh; and the waters shall no more become a flood to destroy all flesh. And the rainbow shall be in the cloud; and I will look upon it, that I may remember the everlasting covenant between God and every living creature of all flesh that is upon the earth.

Pride month be damned. I sure hope @USMNT is thinking more about football during the @FIFAWorldCup than what people do whilst in bed.
Send these rainbow-font jerseys to the trash bin and play well.

@ImMeme0 No idea what her politics are, but many like her move to Texas and yet still continue to vote for the things that make CA so ridiculously Leftist.
Even Arab leaders admit it.
Everyone is sharing the Bill Clinton clip where he describes how Yasser Arafat rejected a generous peace offer at Camp David that would have given the Palestinians a state on 96 percent of the West Bank, land swaps, and a capital in East Jerusalem. Clinton says Arafat lied to him and that the Palestinian leadership never actually wanted a two-state solution. They wanted to destroy Israel. It’s a video often shared by people like @VividProwess, and it’s an important one for people to see.
Of course, critics immediately dismiss it. They claim Clinton is biased or he’s pro-Israel. They’ll tell you that you cannot trust the American perspective.
Ok, so let us set that aside.
Now watch this.
In this powerful interview, former Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak, a major Arab leader who was directly involved in negotiations, says exactly the same thing from the Arab side. He talks about the Mena House Conference in Cairo as well as the Camp David negotiations of 1978. All failed because of the Palestinians repeatedly rejecting any offer. The Oslo accords were signed but because Hamas and the Palestinian Islamic Jihad were not involved, they derailed the accords and any chance for peace by initiating 4 years of terrorist suicide attacks in Israel. Then came the second Camp David negotiations in 2000 which Arafat agreed to, then rejected and instead initiated the Second Intifada.
Mubarak explains how the Palestinians refused to even participate in the Mena House conference of 1977. He describes repeated opportunities they were given, including a detailed document that called for Israeli withdrawal from the Samaria, Judea and Gaza, security arrangements during a transitional period, and other major concessions. The Israelis were willing to negotiate on difficult issues like who would control security. The Palestinians, according to Mubarak, kept saying no and wasting chance after chance.
He speaks with clear frustration about how for decades the Palestinian side has rejected peace initiatives and realistic compromises.
The video further shows footage from the PLO representative in 1977, as well as old footage of Egyptian president Sadat who was involved in the Mena House and first Camp David negotiations of 1978.
This perhaps is far more impactful than Clinton’s account because it is not a Western or Israeli voice. It is prominent Arab leaders who lived the negotiations, who represented the broader Arab world, and who had zero incentive to defend Israel.
When leaders from both sides of the table describe the same pattern of Palestinian rejectionism and violence, it becomes much harder to dismiss as bias.
The pattern is clear across decades and across different voices… generous offers, repeated refusals, and continued demands for everything while giving nothing in return.
This is not ancient history. It is the core reason the conflict continues today.
If you value the truth, please share.
Christians have not recently been adept political thinkers. So, 2 things on this…
1) We should respect Mormons enough to be honest with them that, by their own self-identification, they are “not creedal Christians” (what Mormons THEMSELVES will say, bc they understand they disagree with many/most of the core doctrines of Christianity that are expressed in the earliest creeds)
2) Christians need to develop the ability to understand there are two overlapping but distinct realms: the church and the state (Jesus, 1 Peter, Augustine)
Therefore, there will be some people that are on a DIFFERENT TEAM spiritually (not Christians), but on the SAME TEAM culturally (aligned in almost all political / cultural goals).
If you don’t understand this, you will oppose people you should befriend in the political/cultural realm, and you will befriend people you should differentiate from in the church/spiritual realm.
🚨🔥 UN ÁRABE DE KUWAIT DESTRUYE EL DISCURSO PALESTINO DE LA ONU EN LA ONU‼️
Jasem Aljuraid, periodista kuwaití:
“Señor Presidente,
He oído el término «colonizadores». Pero, ¿quiénes son los verdaderos colonizadores? Un reino judío gobernó Judea durante mil años. Nosotros, los árabes, nos apoderamos de esta tierra.
¿Quién arabizó a los egipcios, fenicios, persas y amazighs? Fuimos nosotros, los árabes.
¿Por qué, entonces, el consejo consagra una mentira al mantener un punto permanente en la agenda sobre Palestina, mientras ignora el regreso a casa del corazón indígena de Israel?
Seamos claros sobre quién defiende realmente nuestra soberanía. Hoy, Israel lucha por la paz, liberando a Gaza de los terroristas de Hamás y protegiendo a los iraníes de la República Islámica.
Lo que Israel está haciendo con la Guardia Revolucionaria Islámica —impidiendo que un régimen genocida adquiera armas nucleares— es un regalo para la humanidad.
Existen 57 países islámicos y un único estado judío, Israel. A pesar del odio constante que se busca eliminarlo, Israel no solo ha sobrevivido, sino que ha prosperado.
No creo en los milagros, pero este es uno de ellos.
Así que le pregunto a la ONU: ¿cuándo pondrán fin al ritual de condenar a Israel?
¿No es hora, en cambio, de aprender de Israel? De cómo derrotar al terrorismo, defender las sociedades libres y buscar la paz.
Gracias."
Agree with you, 100%.
And FWIW, Antonee is my favorite USMT and Fulham player. It was a SPECTACULAR goal. Nothing less.
I just detest the Andres Cantar-shouting. He was doing that 30+ years ago. It's like hearing Chris Berman doing a HR call and still saying BackBackBack...
Get a new schtick.
@Somarr70@barstoolsports 2/ and don't get me wrong: the only USMT jersey I have is A.Robinson #5. He's my favorite player on USA and FFC and that was a WONDERFUL goal.
@3ChicsPolitico@jdmiles11 That tent was the track team’s locker room from which they’d had things stolen which is why the coach tasked Austin (a team captain) to keep non-team members out of the area.
