@IanDavid_Smith @Heidel_bro1563 @sister_slay She is not right.

The Bible is redemptive history. Christ is not only the Eternal God but a historic fact eye-witnessed, heard, and hands have handled by the apostles (1 John 1:1).

@DJR69422 @ReallyOldLife I will give you the benefit of the doubt you believe a religious objection exists to your neighbor's garden statuette; therefore, first, a need exists to address your insistence on calling an idol a garden statuette.

@JeremyBakker37 Ps 127:3-5
Behold children are a heritage from the Lord
The fruit of the womb is a reward
Like arrows in the hand of a warrior
So are the children of one’s youth
Happy is the man who has his quiver full of them
They shall not be ashamed
But shall speak w their enemies in the gate

@The_Catechumen @CredoMilesX @LizzieMarbach Are you the infallible interpreter, like some kind of Pope?

[Christian in the Woods 🍃🌳🍁🌨️ @WoodsReflection]

@The_Catechumen @CredoMilesX @LizzieMarbach "To most people"

Well, you claiming you speak for "most people": 🚩

[Christian in the Woods 🍃🌳🍁🌨️ @WoodsReflection]

@The_Catechumen @CredoMilesX @LizzieMarbach She explained what she meant; she is not wrong. Chill out.

@JeffDyrud @JeremyBakker37 How social the pigs are has us referring to them as the brothers they are. While training them to go here or there needing to first chase 'em, if we grab one the other follows. If we get one, or have one do something the other will. They are always wanting to be together.

[Christian in the Woods 🍃🌳🍁🌨️ @WoodsReflection]

For the first time, we have pigs. 2 pigs to be exact. The pigs are fenced (electric) in a young tree wooded area where bedding shed, food, and water is, and a path lined by the electric wire runs to another grassy area where a shallow spring muddies the soil in patches.

@MitchellSheten1 Yes.
Additionally, the Second Adam by His good pleasure merited eternal life for His seed.

@JeffDyrud @JeremyBakker37 Our chickens must be in a run w a net over run. We live in the woods. Hawks swoop in, realize the net, & pull back before flying into the net. I've seen hawks doing that many times. After some years, thanking God, for we never lost a chicken to a predator yet.

[Christian in the Woods 🍃🌳🍁🌨️ @WoodsReflection]

@JeffDyrud @JeremyBakker37 We have 2 wires w 2 strings. Not sure how 1 lone wire prevents though I understand some use "hog panels". Helps pigs not fear us, i.e. socialize w them. At 1st, when scared of us 1 would break out yet instantly returned bc his younger brother did not want zapped and stayed.

[Christian in the Woods 🍃🌳🍁🌨️ @WoodsReflection]

@JeremyBakker37 @JeffDyrud Is an electric fence the same as an electric wire(s)? It is cost effective, especially with the solar panels.

[Christian in the Woods 🍃🌳🍁🌨️ @WoodsReflection]

@JeffDyrud @JeremyBakker37 We do not have hog panels w an electric fence running low down near, etc. We have 2 electric wires, 1 higher than other w 2 yellow-green strings by wires for the pigs to identify w the wires. They touched the wires at first & did not like them at all, so now stay away from them.

[Christian in the Woods 🍃🌳🍁🌨️ @WoodsReflection]

@JeremyBakker37 @JeffDyrud That is why we do what we do. We have an electric wired fence because other people we know helped us, for they have pigs and this is what they do.

I have no idea what "panels with electric low down inside" is.

After 10 weeks in the basement/garage, Sapphire Gem chickens had feathered enough weeks ago and ever since then had been in the chicken run outside doing well.

[Christian in the Woods 🍃🌳🍁🌨️ @WoodsReflection]

Chickens getting bigger. Another 5 weeks or so in the garage/basement before we put them outside in the run which then their feathers mature enough will have them withstand cold temperatures.

Some chickens are looking at me, but one jumped up on a warmer to take a closer look.

[Christian in the Woods 🍃🌳🍁🌨️ @WoodsReflection]

New chicken season for us!🐤

The kind of chickens we bought are called Sapphire Gem. We keep them in the garage/basement with warmers until they feather, so the chickens can persevere through any cold temperatures when outside in the chicken run with coop.
