Olive Tree (Rom. 11):

Olive tree: sphere of Abrahamic covenant blessings

Root: Abrahamic promises to patriarchs

Natural branches: Israel (believing remnant remains; unbelieving broken off)

Wild branches: believing Gentiles grafted in

Future: Israel grafted in again

🚨BREAKING: Former NBA Super Star Announces He will Join the WNBA

Enes Freedom played 11 season as a Center in the NBA. He is 6’10’’ which would make him the tallest player in the WNBA. The WNBA recently said they would welcome biological males in their League.

If the WNBA does NOT allow @EnesFreedom to play, America First Policy Institute will legally represent him in court in his fight for fairness and representation.

Let’s see how woke and ‘fair’ the WNBA really is…

@gmk_julie I like 2 but 3 would work well too.

[The REAL Matthew Henry @pastormatthenry]

@SteveMeisterVDM Of course, Paul also says that man suppresses that knowledge. Making the natural revelation part of the judgment against man b/c man rejects it, but not the process by which man knows God, which is via special revelation.

@EvangelicalDW I read Chafer's, admittedly about 30 years ago, and don't recall something like that. Can you point me in the general section he would have done so? I have little desire to re-read 8 volumes.

Theatrics in the pulpit betray the preacher’s lack of confidence in the sufficiency of scripture.

[The REAL Matthew Henry @pastormatthenry]

This is frankly awesome.

I needed to move a sofa.

I mentioned this to an American. He said, "You know anybody with a truck?"

I did not know anybody with a truck.

He looked at me with real concern. Not pity. Concern. The way you look at a man who has told you he does not have a name.

"You gotta know somebody with a truck."

I asked how one acquires such a person.

He said, "You just do."

This is the third time I have received that answer in this country. It is the answer to everything here. You just do. There is no process. There is only the eventual fact of having.

He said, "Ask Kevin."

I do not know a Kevin. He said Kevin like I should. He said it the way you say a shared uncle.

I met Kevin four days later. Kevin owns a truck. Kevin does not own a truck for himself. Nobody owns a truck for themselves. Kevin owns a truck for a fifteen mile radius.

Inside I said: THIS MAN HAS TAKEN A VOW. HE DID NOT ANNOUNCE IT. HE SIMPLY PURCHASED A BED AND ACCEPTED THE CONSEQUENCES.

Kevin arrived on Saturday. He brought the truck. He also brought a second man.

I had not asked for a second man.

The second man's name is Tony. Tony came because Kevin came. Tony did not know me. Tony did not ask what we were moving. Tony brought gloves.

They moved the sofa in eleven minutes.

I offered them money. Both of them laughed at the same time, which felt rehearsed and was not.

I asked what I owed them.

Kevin said, "Buy the pizza."

That is the price. That is the entire economy. The truck costs one pizza and the pizza is not negotiable and the pizza is also not expensive and everyone knows what size.

Inside I said: THE FEE IS FIXED ACROSS THE ENTIRE NATION AND WAS SET BY NO ONE.

We ate on the floor because the sofa was against the wall and none of us wanted to be the first to sit on it.

Tony told me his daughter plays soccer. I asked if she is good. He said, "She's aggressive."

I still think about that.

Three weeks later, Kevin texted me.

"You free Sunday? Helping Tony move a fridge."

He did not ask if I wanted to. He informed me of a fridge.

Inside I said: I HAVE BEEN CALLED UP. I DID NOT ENLIST. THE PAPERS WERE FILED ON MY BEHALF.

I went. I moved the fridge. I have no truck. I contributed only arms.

Afterward, a man I had never met asked me if I knew anybody with a truck.

I said, "Yeah, I got a guy."

I have a guy.

I am somebody's guy now, too. Tony has told two people about me.

He describes me as "the guy who's strong for his size."

I have never been prouder of a sentence in my life.

@MolitorSue61 @Phil_Johnson_ @jimcosman2 Sincere answer. Phil has spoken and written so much that is accessible that you can figure all of that out if you search for him online.

@Svigel I’m more of a 1,4,3 guy myself. I had hoped we could be friends but apparently not.

Devastating footage from Gaza following three years of war. Look what Israel did!!

Oh never mind, this is what Assad, Hezbollah and Iran did in Homs, Syria!

But since it’s Muslims killing Muslims, nobody cares!

[The REAL Matthew Henry @pastormatthenry]

@Svigel yes

Devil is dead

Hamas commander Walid Haniyeh who roasted two Jewish newborns by putting them in a microwave, who killed a Christian tourist by ripping out her intestines after r@ping her on Oct 7 has been killed in an intelligence based operation. He was hiding as a barber.
