Obedience to God does not guarantee an easy life. But it does ensure that the Lord directs you to what you need, when you need it. The waves and torrents you encounter serve a purpose and will not overcome you if you submit to Him. Disobedience carries no such assurance.

@bigbrownson And to extend mercy before justice

@jpodhoretz That's what haters misunderstand: the Odyssey is an allegory for our age.

[James Thatcher @JamesThatcher6]

@MattWalshBlog You've missed the point of the movie. The film is an allegory about civilization - hence the multiracial cast and lack of faux accidents. You're not supposed to feel like 3k years in the past. Watching modern Americans in a pageant is the point! Odysseus and the Greeks are us.

[James Thatcher @JamesThatcher6]

@Salt_n_Smoke @qboomer17 Or you are limiting how God works with people based on their understanding

[James Thatcher @JamesThatcher6]

@Salt_n_Smoke Things**

[James Thatcher @JamesThatcher6]

@Salt_n_Smoke It's going to take a lot more than numerology for you to persuade me that Joseph Smith was evil or that the thing he revealed are worth discarding.

@cboyack Liberty includes the freedom to choose and the freedom to be accountable for the choice one makes--whether good or bad.

[James Thatcher @JamesThatcher6]

@Ulisses__Soares Explain what you mean by "focus their lives on Jesus Christ?"

This phrase is vague without more.

[James Thatcher @JamesThatcher6]

@MateyYanakiev Yes - a literal gathering of Israel will occur

[James Thatcher @JamesThatcher6]

@ChristoffDTodd Learn God's character

[James Thatcher @JamesThatcher6]

Lying https://t.co/YHmJTtII4k

Why is it that an atheists will address an important topic that many professed Christians won't?

"9 Lie not one to another, seeing that ye have put off the old man with his deeds"

[James Thatcher @JamesThatcher6]

@nick_matau The point of this satire was to illustrate how you can create a conspiracy out of anything by cherry picking facts.

[James Thatcher @JamesThatcher6]

@cboyack Or selectively enforce ordinances

[James Thatcher @JamesThatcher6]

@MateyYanakiev To add: in truth, seeking after God is to do our best in all things. Blessing are the natural consequence of doing our best.

@farmingandJesus @lessonplan77 *Dahmer

[James Thatcher @JamesThatcher6]

@farmingandJesus @lessonplan77 Paul, though initially wrong, acted sincerely based on the beliefs he had. He truly believed he was serving YHWH. Further, while Paul persecuted Christians, there is no textual evidence that he killed them. Dalmer, conversely, was a monster, murder, and loved the darkness.

[James Thatcher @JamesThatcher6]

@ITalkOfChrist I don't hear anything reassuring in this video and a lot of the "coming back" and being "distinct" is vague.

[James Thatcher @JamesThatcher6]

@NeilShenvi Virtue signaling is done to remove guilt which guilt can only be removed by ceasing to sin.

[James Thatcher @JamesThatcher6]

@Latterdaytruth Next to 93, 88.

[James Thatcher @JamesThatcher6]

If this principle about honesty and its effects were to be preached from the pulpit every Sunday the Christian world would be much better.
