@gracetoyou TGC is rife w false doctrine & teachers (Charismatic mysticism, New Calvinism, pro-sodomy, pro- Anglican/RCC, social "justice", feminism, NPP, Evolution) failing the test of Scripture. Mark Dever & Ligon Duncan shared the pulpit with a sodomite Anglican priest Sam Allberry.
@victoriaarbiter He's done the same--make money off of slandering & revealing private matters to the press. They're using each other. No sympathy for the man child who's delusional, bitter, jealous, & a liar.
@WHOSTP47 Yet King Newsom has shut ours down, only extending the shut down of the last one (Diablo Canyon) b/c of outrage re: gas & power. Nuclear power is cheap & clean.
@RestingDollface Best behavior? Their pattern of behavior is horrific toward ailing, elderly, grieving family members, children, & fire victims. There can't be expectation for good behavior b/c they're empty when it comes to truth, integrity, hard work, selfless service, & compassion.
@hilltopjennifer That would make that glass thimble size.😆 Prob AI photo b/c she's too lazy & cheap to have someone do a proper photo w proper dishes.
@according2_taz@Daily_Express Harry's been on his revenge train for years, so it doesn't matter what Charles does, so better for Charles to just do the right thing, strip his lying ingrate of a son of all titles now. Doing the right thing, not doing anything--doesn't matter. Harry has tantrums regardless.
@gracetoyou The Truth condemns the sin of partiality, as well as sodomy unions. Yet Mac said it wasn't a sin for a Xian baker to make a cake for a gay "wedding" & then misapplied the Good Samaritan parable to it. The Truth condemns welcoming a false teacher yet he welcomed Piper repeatedly.
@according2_taz@DailyMail His delusions will continue to grow. He'll appeal. He can't be wrong. Ever. Neither can Twerkle. Glad for this just judgement though! Strip him of all titles now!

George Washington's Spectacles:
At the end of the Revolutionary War, Congress was broke and owed back pay to many officers and soldiers in the army.
Rumors began to spread that to solve the problem, Congress would just disband the army and send them home without pay.
Some officers, influenced by anonymous letters known as the Newburgh Addresses began discussing radical action such as marching on Congress.
This raised fears of a military coup that could have destroyed the nation in its infancy.
On March 15 1783, new Newburgh New York, General Washington called his officers together at the Temple of Virtue - a large wooden hall built by the soldiers as a chapel and dance hall.
He arrived unexpectedly just after General Horatio Gates had opened the meeting.
Washington spoke to his men and he sympathized with the officers’ hardships including his own but firmly condemned any move against the civilian government.
He appealed to their patriotism, honor, and sense of duty. He warned against plunging the country into “civil horror.”
As Washington prepared to read a letter from Congress explaining the situation, he struggled to read the print.
Then he reached into his pocket and pulled out a pair of reading spectacles—the first time most of the officers had ever seen him wear glasses. He had only recently started needing them and had kept it private.
He paused and said:
“Gentlemen, you will permit me to put on my spectacles, for I have not only grown gray but almost blind in the service of my country.”
The officers were stunned.
Here was their revered, seemingly invincible commander—now openly acknowledging his age, weariness, and physical frailty after years of shared sacrifice.
Many of them were moved to tears. The tension in the room dissolved. The conspiracy collapsed.
The officers voted to express their “unshaken confidence” in Congress and rejected any irregular or mutinous actions.
Washington later successfully lobbied Congress on their behalf, and the army received a settlement of five years of full pay.
The moment is widely regarded as one of Washington’s greatest acts of leadership.
Our country was founded and preserved by the greatest of men.
@USAinUK It's something at least, I guess, but it's underwhelming for such a huge milestone event. Tons of flags with a huge on top at least would make it far better, or does the mayor not allow Old Glory to fly either?
