Christian, husband, father, pastor, reformed Baptist, post-mill, seeking to change the world for generations to come through my family and through my church
@Pastor_Gabe I like that take. But you gotta realize I was 9 years old when Phantom Menace hit theaters. I got to watch all three prequels in the theaters. These movies were my 4,5, and 6 I grew up with. So I will always like them and think of them as “good” despite their many flaws.
I will do all I can to make sure my children can buy houses in our community, make enough money to get married and have children young, and build our family name into a shorthand for fruitful Christian faithfulness in their time—and teach their children to do the same in theirs.
This requires a two-pronged approach to inheritance: The first major prong occurs when they are coming of age—helping them get established in the vocations of manhood and womanhood and start having children.
The second major prong occurs when I die—blessing my children's children. The inheritance should land on the grandchildren when I die at least in strong part, because I have already helped my children get established. They are now working on their grandchildren's inheritance.
The goal isn't primarily for me to have a ton of wealth in my old age that I still personally control, but to have built and manage a productive estate that includes my children and their children and which they increasingly manage.
We're building something together—a good name—not a bunch of separated things alone.
No one should turn to Mary with any sort of confidence or hope in being heard, protected or loved. Mary is actively worshipping Christ in eternity. Christ alone intercedes for His saints on their behalf.
Mary is the Mother of the whole Church. Everyone can turn to her with filial confidence, certain of being heard, protected, and loved. #GeneralAudience
Conservatives complaining about Trump right now must have short term memory loss. You guys do remember the alternative was Kamala and the one before her was Biden! He isn’t perfect, he has made mistakes, but he is a good President!
@BrandonLansdown Very good observations. I read recently that one of the biggest issues with disornsationalism is that it places the eyes of Christian’s more towards the Middle East than upon the Lord Jesus Christ. That in itself is a huge problem
@JoelWebbon The kingdom of God is like leaven, Joel. It’s going to take more than our generation to see His kingdom come and will be done on earth as it is in heaven.
I’m voting Democrat in 2026 because White people can play both sides too.
The GOP broke every single promise: Epstein File coverup, regime change War in Iran, and no mass deportations.
The GOP must be purged and burned to the ground in 26. Hostile takeover in 28.
Just remember when you go vote in November that the democrats did not stand when asked to stand if you believe we should protect Americans first instead of illegal aliens #StateOfTheUnion
Suddenly the Left, who believes we all descended from apes, is offended at the depiction of human beings as apes.
Maybe we’re made in the image of God after all 🤔
