Comforting or encouraging a lie, only causes more confusion and hurt.
Ephesians 4:25 - Wherefore putting away lying, speak every man truth with his neighbour:

Proverbs 12:22 - Lying lips are abomination to the LORD: but they that deal truly are his delight.

[Ron Barker @RonBarker1975]

Only God can turn a violent instrument of death, into a beautiful instrument to provide life.
Thankful for the Cross of Jesus.

1 Cor 1:18 For the preaching of the cross is to them that perish foolishness; but unto us which are saved it is the power of God.

"If your marriage is 2 people trying to use each other, it feels like a battle. If it's one person trying to serve and the other trying to use, it feels like abuse. BUT if it's 2 people trying to out-serve each other, it feels like a blessing." - JH

When I die... if evil celebrates the shutting of my mouth... it is proof that I have fulfilled my calling in preaching Christ, His Cross, His Word, and called men to repentance.

2 Corinthians 5:20 Now then we are ambassadors for Christ...

Psalm 46:1 - God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble.

If you can't speak or debate your views without screaming, name-calling, or violence... you should reconsider your views.

Grateful that @charliekirk11 lovingly and respectfully stood for values and Christ.
May God use this tragedy for His glory.

As long as truth is ignored, excuses are made, or blame is passed... healing cannot begin. Healing always begins with confession!
1 John 1:9 - If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.

#confess #Heal

If the Gospel of Christ is ignored, nothing else matters.

Matthew 16:26 - For what is a man profited, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul? or what shall a man give in exchange for his soul?

When a woman tells you her problems, she does not want you to fix them... she just wants you to listen.
Except when she whispers "I'm choking"...

“A foolish physician he is, and a most unfaithful friend, that will let a sick man die for fear of troubling him; and cruel wretches are we to our friends, that will rather suffer them to go quietly to hell, then we will anger them, or hazard our reputation with them.” R Baxter

Kids are not monsters!!!
They are what their parents trained and allowed them to be.

Proverbs 22:6 - Train up a child in the way he should go: and when he is old, he will not depart from it.

"God is so generous to allow you the freedom to plant whatever you want; But He is so just that you must eat exactly what you plant"

Galatians 6:7 - Be not deceived; God is not mocked: for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap.

To anyone I have ever called a "Knucklehead"... I am SORRY!!!
Till last night's debate, I didn't realize it was such a serious term.

When American leaders / "representatives" refuse to give unscripted interviews, have open discussions, or share plans...
ALL Americans should be frustrated, angry, and very afraid of what they are hiding.
Pray for USA!
