@flossin69 @Timcast This is dry heat.

@COOLERTHANUOBVS @Timcast I thought this was funny.

[Stephen @SpurgeonFan_]

@nationalpost Sauce?

@nationalpost Chill out dudes. It’s Omar Little from The Wire. Omar made a living by stealing drugs from other drug dealers. Drug gangs feared him because he caused them serious losses. It’s a tongue-in-cheek photo selection that beats any other photo they could have posted with this story.

@stclairashley @JesseKellyDC Is that a one-piece sunsuit?

@brianlilley @patrickbrownont @CPC_HQ Say what you will about the guy but he gets an A for effort. A dude who wants to hold public office this badly is getting something from it that he shouldn’t be getting from it.

@Timcast I disagreed with the first tweet, but you got me on the second tweet.

@RobertMutis5 @nationalpost Bob: I’m thinking about mowing my lawn this morning because it’s going to be really warm this aft.

Smales: People are really struggling and this is all you can think of?

@BRichardsssss @ctsotsoros @jasonwhitlock I know you’re joking but He promises never again to destroy the earth with water again. (Genesis 9:15). When Christ returns He will destroy the earth with fire (2 Peter: 7 & 10)

I know, O Lord, that the way of man is not in himself,
    that it is not in man who walks to direct his steps.
Correct me, O Lord, but in justice;
    not in your anger, lest you bring me to nothing.

Jeremiah 10:23,24

@Xpropriation @OmnusTaino @Timcast Yes of course. The punishment for rebellion, for cosmic treason, for attempting to usurp God’s authority, is death. That’s why you are currently dying and why you will end up dead. Why God chose to preserve a dying world and save a people from death is the real mystery.

[Stephen @SpurgeonFan_]

@Xpropriation @OmnusTaino @Timcast Creators can do what they wish with their creation. Parents can’t do what they wish with their kids because kids are not their creation, they are God’s creation. That God created us to live in His world, His way is not unjust, namely because God created justice in the first place

@jamesrwoodtheo1 Maybe I’m not on Twitter enough to have gotten used to its truncated expressions, but “Do better” is the most effete, arrogant, snooty turn of phrase that any finger-wagging scold ever took to express. It couples the sour whiff of smugness with the salty brine of inelegance.

Blessed is he whose help is the God of Jacob,
    whose hope is in the Lord his God,
who made heaven and earth,
    the sea, and all that is in them,
who keeps faith forever;
    who executes justice for the oppressed,
    who gives food to the hungry.

Ps 146:5-7

@DelanoSquires Graham preached the Gospel and King preached a utopian dream that human depravity makes impossible. The only way to achieve King’s vision is via the regeneration and sanctification taught by Graham. King couldn’t lead anyone to the “promised land” because he isn’t Jesus Christ.

@michael_Wmorgan @RealJacobPerry @AlsoACarpenter @SYSPlayer We are not to CONDEMN sinners because of their sin because we ourselves are sinners. But that doesn’t mean we can’t judge a tree by its fruit or speak against sin in the world or the church. God had commanded us to apply His law and judge between good and evil.

I cry to you, O Lord;
    “You are my refuge,
    my portion in the land of the living.”
Attend to my cry, for I am brought very low
Bring me out of prison, that I may give thanks to your name!
The righteous will surround me,
    for you will deal bountifully with me.

Ps 142

@PPollievre @nationalpost Read the article you are commenting on:

“If Brodie had wanted to tilt the field in favour of Poilievre, he would have found a way to deem Brown ineligible to be a candidate, as the Ontario Progressive Conservative party did in 2018.”

[Stephen @SpurgeonFan_]

@nationalpost Excellent quote from the article:

“…when I heard Brown defend himself on television, I thought of Ralph Waldo Emerson’s quote: ‘The louder he talked of his honour, the faster we counted the spoons’”

[Stephen @SpurgeonFan_]

For though the Lord is high, he regards the lowly…
Though I walk in the midst of trouble,
    you preserve my life…
    and your right hand delivers me.

The Lord will fulfill his purpose for me; your steadfast love, O Lord, endures forever.

Psalm 138
