D.J. Daniel joined President Trump at the Joint Session—a 13-year-old battling cancer who has been sworn in as an honorary officer over 900 times.
President Trump made his dream come true, swearing him in as a Secret Service agent.
The band's style at Can Can Wonderland tonight could be described as experimental. Not as in breaking new ground, rather, "what are these strange instruments and how do you play them?" 👎
Not all faith is equal.
It matters greatly what you place faith in.
Perhaps the most common attack on faith is to misrepresent it as without evidence or "blind," made-up.
As we see here, there are indeed made-up faiths. (Guy scribbles creed on napkin and tweets it.) Such faith is as ludicrous and worthy of mockery as the atheists claim.
By contrast, faith in the God of the Bible rests upon thousands of years of tradition dating back to first-hand eye-witness accounts, reformational exegesis, and - most importantly - a reasoned analysis of creation itself.
Real faith isn't made up. It's a product of discernment. Real faith is trust in revealed truth. Just as you take a step without doubt in the ground where your foot will fall, real faith rests upon the *knowledge* that God is real and keeps his promises. It's not a guess. It's not a wish. It's not a roll of the dice. And it certainly isn't something you crowd source. It's confidence in his Word, as He inspired and passed through the ages, not as you devised to justify your sin.
To the glory of his name, even blasphemy serves to prove his Word true.
"For the time is coming when people will not endure sound teaching, but having itching ears they will accumulate for themselves teachers to suit their own passions, and will turn away from listening to the truth and wander off into myths." - 2 Timothy 4:3-4
"But understand this, that in the last days there will come times of difficulty. For people will be lovers of self, lovers of money, proud, arrogant, abusive, disobedient to their parents, ungrateful, unholy, heartless, unappeasable, slanderous, without self-control, brutal, not loving good, treacherous, reckless, swollen with conceit, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God, having the appearance of godliness, but denying its power. Avoid such people." - 2 Timothy 3:1-5
@elonmusk As someone who was in media for years, the internet changed everything. I've seen newspapers dwindle down to such a small staff that there are not enough resources to do the job well. We went from questioning everything to just writing up press releases.
Cleaning out my basement and I found my meticulously kept records of articles I wrote while at the Port Huron Times Herald. This generation will never know the struggle! 😂
Good riddance to @BShawPP (r), retired after 27 years at @PioneerPress; @PhilPina (c), off to the Strib after 22 years with us; and @dlweniger (l), ready for a change of pace. Bob’s face says it all! Enemy of the people never 👎 wanted to write for u nasty readers anyhow! See ya!
Today was my last day working at the St. Paul Pioneer Press. I have loved every minute of my 4.5 years there and will miss the news team dearly. On to new adventures!
