@maz_jovanovich Pretty sure it’s a parody account (a not very funny one). There are some doozies in there today. More grimacing than laughing. It’s just a shame that it skirts too close to legit thoughts some people have on here.
@DavidACBennett Hang in there Dave, for every rejector you’ve probably got seven supporters who never think to tell you what a fan they are. Keep doing what your doing. Critic’s are noisy, admirers aren’t. Very few people who will tell you how good your doing even when they think it.
@masonmennenga@Shelyfurtardo But Jesus was both God and man?
Actually loving this thread. Very insightful. And been thinking on this. But leaning to ‘both’. In same way as prophets words were ‘God says’ - they weren’t the word, but were saying the words of God. Recording it is recording word of God
@mpjensen Knowing for certain that there is more to existence than this life, yet this life on earth isn’t meaningless, I am meant to be here, I have purpose, yet I don’t need to achieve or do my purpose to have right standing with the creator of the Universe, I already have it in Jesus.
@johnpauldickson You got me realising there is a difference between shunning wealth, poverty & comfort and being generous to the poor. We use the term blessed to be a blessing. Make more to give more. I guess that wasn’t a concept of the medieval Christians? They were more “despise the other”?
@johnpauldickson When pondering this John, I’ve always wondered if these Christians had much greater contact with extreme poverty than we do today. Is that historically correct? Has government social security reduced the desperate situation of the poor that Christians were stepping up to help?
@MuiRebekah 🤯 Not just a problem for 13 year olds at youth group.
Manipulative talk like this a regular on Sunday’s, often around giving.
The wording is then ‘give to God’. Yet what they are actually asking you to do is to give to the leaders of the Church.
The Constitutional Monarchy is the most modern system of government devised - it is newer than monarchies, newer than dictatorships, and newer than republics.
It alone denies absolute power to Parliament, preventing the establishment of dictatorships and military coups.
The King's only real power is to return the people to election - to dissolve an out-of-control or sadistic Parliament and ask the people if they would like to vote for someone less crazy.
This is why the socialists and power-hungry leaders hate the monarchy. The King's existence actively prevents a totalitarian, Big State prison.
In a Constitutional Monarchy, no power is absolute - except that of the people.
A team deployed to Sudan to conduct urgent airfield damage repair as part of the UK Joint Task Force.
The airfield was being used to evacuate Entitled People by multiple nations. This is the first time Airfield Damage Repair has conducted on Operations since the Falklands War.
"As my pornography consumption escalated, so did my imagination's ability to see women and girls as sex objects. Everyday scenarios quickly became a potential sex scene in my mind." A great and honest article by @_DanielPrincipe. Read it 👇

@sean_mortenson Probably why I love @undeceptions so much. To see Christian leaders wrestle with ideas, yet in the process and afterwards so clearly respect and honour, and value the insights of, and make a point to include, those who think differently.
