@KeithMcilwain Whoa! You threw us a real curve ball there!

@andrewklavan @amazon Baseball, apple pie and Klavan novels. 🇺🇸

@KeithMcilwain Sometimes you just need to leave it to the professionals. Atlas, call your office.

@KeithMcilwain I’ve seen bits and pieces of the others (I’ll have to check them out), but Young Frankenstein is one of the funniest movies of all time.

[Jerry Rectenwald @JerryRecte84349]

@DrFrankTurek Yes, with civility and humility, and keeping it in perspective, guided by 1 Corinthians 13.

[Jerry Rectenwald @JerryRecte84349]

@markdtooley @MethodistView This issue has been largely under the radar and has now been brought to the fore . It’s been interesting to see evangelicals, Catholics and other conservatives weigh in. There’s significant disagreement.

[Jerry Rectenwald @JerryRecte84349]

@megbasham That’s a pretty good argument. But I think there’s an argument for giving people the maximum time to repent. Also, I don’t think the NT explicitly prescribes CP.

[Jerry Rectenwald @JerryRecte84349]

@sgruber91 I understand the pro-CP argument. But for some, life in prison is as much of a “terror”, or even more so.

[Jerry Rectenwald @JerryRecte84349]

@LilaGraceRose I’m a Christian and after much thought, I am anti-CP, but understand why some are pro. While aghast at the thought, I understand that the military has its own justice system separate from civilian, which includes method of execution.

[Jerry Rectenwald @JerryRecte84349]

@LilaGraceRose I don’t see the OT as prescriptive of CP, at least not for Christians, but can understand it as an argument for. I don’t see the NT being clearly for or against. Thus the lack of consensus.

[Jerry Rectenwald @JerryRecte84349]

@DrFrankTurek It always seemed like a kind of bait and switch technique. “Come on in. Christianity is really easy.” Then later: “Actually, Christianity is quite hard.”

[Jerry Rectenwald @JerryRecte84349]

@KeithMcilwain The only fear I’ve noticed from him is a SLIGHT fear of God, as in “I’m not sure I’ll get into heaven”. His biggest character flaw imho is an apparent inability to apologize, which WILL keep him out of heaven.

[Jerry Rectenwald @JerryRecte84349]

@jtbickley This cannot stand. A grotesque injustice.

[Jerry Rectenwald @JerryRecte84349]

@KeithMcilwain Observing him on the world stage for a decade, it’s safe to say Trump’s not acting out of fear. He of course won’t sue without grounds. He’s hitting back. Surprise surprise.

[Jerry Rectenwald @JerryRecte84349]

@megbasham I’m willing and I will pray!

[Jerry Rectenwald @JerryRecte84349]

@KeithMcilwain And therefore there is hope. And thus we are saved.

[Jerry Rectenwald @JerryRecte84349]

@TheBabylonBee CNN reports Trump revoked its WH press access … and kicked Kaitlin Collins’ dog …and also Hitler.

[Jerry Rectenwald @JerryRecte84349]

@KeithMcilwain You and Trump. Everyone’s down on Canada! 😆

[Jerry Rectenwald @JerryRecte84349]

@KeithMcilwain A good snarky comeback but …

A good conversation starter for sure.

Worshipers of course have spiritual needs. And, what expectations do they come with? In what ways might their expectations be misguided?

Part of the answer, I think, is teaching. What IS worship? Why worship?

[Jerry Rectenwald @JerryRecte84349]

@jtbickley Great interview. And wonderful to learn that Majors is a man of faith!
