The word "inerrant" is not in the Bible. The term is not in the Scripture. I neither believe nor disbelieve it. When it comes to doctrines, I prefer to adhere to the phraseology of the Scripture. I would not bother using the term in the formal doctrinal sense. People who like to generalize tend to overgeneralize in a doctrine. More precisely, I know the following:

2 Timothy 3:

16a All Scripture is God-breathed.

I have bought Dutch Farms hardboiled eggs, they come in a sealed package and refrigerated lasts about 2 months, I then buy a 1 1/2 a cup of cut fruits. I am having this every day for breakfast.

Other than the added costs, what am I potentially missing out on or even end up risking by buying these already prepared foods, then doing it myself? I have never gotten sick from eating these, I hear the food standards and safety is high here in America.

Among claims made by former "Apprentice" winner Randall Pinkett to Setoodeh [in a new book] is that the married Donald Trump wouldn't stop talking about how much he wanted to have sex with another contestant, Jennifer Murphy, The Atlantic reported.

Murphy, a 26-year-old beauty queen at the time of the taping, has spoken out about Trump's affection for her previously, claiming he gave her a "little kiss."

While she previously spoke about the "little kiss," now she says Trump also "invited her to his room at the Beverly Hills Hotel. She declined the invitation because he was married to his current wife, Melania," The Atlantic wrote.

“I have a conscience,” Murphy explained to Setoodeh, implying that the invitation was for sex. “I have integrity. I made up a reason I was busy."

“I think he looked at me in a way like he does his daughter,” Murphy told the book's author. “But also, I did think he had the hots for me a bit.”

Hi everyone!

I wanted to reach out and report back on my beloved chicken Annie.In a miracle turn of events her condition has skyrocketed for the best!

I’ve fortunately been graced with a traveling vet I was able to reach out to for help on Saturday June 1st and I was able to take her assistant a fecal sample for analysis,fortunately her droppings showed no parasites.The vet came out on Monday June 3rd and gave me medicine to treat her.

I came home yesterday after work and I saw that her droppings had miraculously changed form to look normal,I took her out of the quarantining tent I put her in(which has water,food,a nest box,toys,and treats) and I had a can of her adult feed sitting nearby for later and i turn around after looking out my garage and see her eating the food! Something she hasn’t been able to do this previous week!

I immediately teared up thanking the Good Lord for hearing my cries.I cannot thank you all for your prayers,words cannot describe the sheer amount of gratitude I have for you all who prayed for her health.

Thank you all so much!

My psychiatric meds were adjusted yesterday and I began feeling irritable and suicidal today. So, I came to the nearby mental hospital with my dad and got admitted. They gave me clonazepam, but I'm not feeling sleepy yet. (It's almost 11 PM here.) Hopefully they'll adjust my meds tomorrow and I'll be better in a few days' time.

US B-1B Drops Live Bombs in Firepower Warning to North Korea​

An American B-1B Lancer strategic bomber dropped live bombs on mock targets on the Korean Peninsula on Wednesday for the first time in over seven years during a joint exercise with treaty ally South Korea meant as a direct warning to the North.

The supersonic heavy bomber assigned to Anderson Air Force Base in Guam was escorted in the drills by a pair of South Korean air force F-15K Slam Eagles from Daegu Air Base in the country's southeast.
All three warplanes hit their marks at the Pilsung Range with Joint Direct Attack Munitions, South Korea's Defense Ministry said in a press release.

JDAM is a precision guidance kit that converts munitions into so-called "smart bombs" that can be released by all U.S. Air Force aircraft, including drones.

The U.S. Seventh Air Force, headquartered at Osan Air Base, 30 miles south of Seoul, said the U.S. and South Korean aircraft dropped 500-pound GBU-38 munitions "simultaneously striking multiple simulated targets."

I'm not clinically depressed but O have moments where my mood is down, feel very alone ad sometimes don't want to go to church. I have to because my parents will complain plus I work in the A/V and I have the most experience working there so I have responsibility. People are nice, say hi ask me how I'm doing ect... but sometimes I just want to walk past them and be on my own, not have to fake smiling as if everything is alright. The reason being that I know if that older members see me being sad, unfriendly, cold, they will find it weird because "you are Christian and you are in church, you shouldn't be sad". What do i do and how should I handle it? It's worse when their "help" is saying "hey God loves you, be happy, read this Bible verse". Do I believe God loves me, yeah i do. is that a very lazy and simplified way to help someone going through struggles, also yes. Why do you think, things like depression gets downplayed a lot in the church and by Christians? Everyone expects you to be happy all the time and if you aren't, there is something wrong with you.

PSA; If you are in church and see someone who is cold and unfriendly, don't just assume they're a bad person, most likely they are going through something.

Trump Ally Bannon Must Surrender to Prison by July 1 to Start 4-Month Sentence

Steve Bannon was convicted in 2022 of contempt of Congress for defying subpoena from House committee that investigated 2021 attack on US Capitol



Steve Bannon, a long-time ally of former US president Donald Trump, must report to prison by July 1 to serve his four-month sentence for defying a subpoena from the House committee that investigated the attack on the US Capitol, a federal judge ruled on Thursday.

US District Judge Carl Nichols in Washington granted prosecutors’ request to make Bannon begin serving his prison term after a three-judge panel of a federal appeal court last month upheld his contempt of Congress conviction. But Nichols also made clear on Thursday in his ruling that Bannon could seek a stay of his order, which could delay his surrender date.

Nichols, who was nominated to the bench by Trump, a Republican, had initially allowed Bannon to remain free while he fought his conviction. But the panel of the US Court of Appeals for the DC Circuit said all of Bannon’s challenges lack merit.
Political strategist Bannon was convicted in 2022 of two counts of contempt of Congress: one for refusing to sit for a deposition with the January 6 House Committee and the other for refusing to provide documents related to his involvement in Trump’s efforts to overturn his 2020 presidential election loss to Democrat Joe Biden.

The fourth test flight of the biggest and most powerful rocket ever built is in the books, and what a dramatic and nail-biting trip for SpaceX it was.

Have you heard of these Catholic rules?

Have you heard of these Catholic rules?

On this episode of "The Catholic Talk Show," Ryan Scheel, Father Rich Pagano, and Ryan DellaCrosse discuss “The Craziest Catholic Rules You’ve Never Heard Of."

1) What Happens When the Pope Dies?​

Without modern medicine to confirm, they had to make sure there was no mistake declaring the papacy vacant. “When the pope died, one of the rituals is that the camerlengo would take a silver hammer and tap the pope on the head three times," says Scheel.

2) You Can Eat What! During Lent​

Unique dispensations around the world allow for the consumption of aquatic mammals on Fridays during Lent. “There are certain animals that you can eat that you would never guess that you're allowed to eat like muskrat” or alligator, Scheel says.

3) Only Certain Women Can Wear White To Meet the Pope​

During papal audiences, there is a particular privilege involving dress code. "There are only seven [now eight] women in the world who are allowed to wear white when meeting the pope," Scheel explains.

This rare honor, known as the "privilege du blanc," is traditionally reserved for certain Catholic queens and princesses.

4) Lunar Loophole: The Bishop of the Moon​

Here’s something out of this world—literally! A Catholic bishop is in charge of the moon. This bizarre rule originates from the time when newly discovered territories would fall under the bishopric from where the expedition departed.

Since the Apollo missions launched from within the Diocese of Orlando, "technically, the Bishop of Orlando is the bishop of the moon," reveals Scheel.

Curious to learn about more of the craziest Catholic rules? This episode covers it all!

How to define freewill?

As an ontological question, there is no consensual answer to this among philosophers. In practice, however, I know I have my freewill. I can sense it. OT mentions it in Exodus 35:

29 All the Israelite men and women who were willing brought to the LORD freewill offerings for all the work the LORD through Moses had commanded them to do.

Click to expand...

[shall be] willing
נְדָבֹת֮ (nə·ḏā·ḇōṯ)
Noun - feminine plural
Strong's 5071: Spontaneity, spontaneous, a spontaneous, abundant gift

Berean Standard Bible:

Your people shall be willing [H5071] on Your day of battle. Arrayed in holy splendor, from the womb of the dawn, to You belongs the dew of Your youth.

Click to expand...

The Bible assumes the existence of freewill. 1 Corinthians 7 talks about freedom and will:

37 But the man who has settled the matter in his own mind, who is under no compulsion but has control over his own will, and who has made up his mind not to marry the virgin—this man also does the right thing.

Click to expand...

A similar concept is expressed in (BSB) Philemon 1:

14 But I did not want to do anything without your consent, so that your goodness will not be out of compulsion, but by your own free will.

Click to expand...

On the other hand, Paul talks of God's influencing our will in Philippians 2:

13 for it is God who works in you to will and to act in order to fulfill his good purpose.

Ephesians 1:

5 he predestined us for adoption to himself as sons through Jesus Christ, according to the purpose of his will/

Click to expand...

I would define freewill concretely as our freewill faculty/organ in our brain that makes choices when presented with alternatives. Mathematically, let V1 be the function of this freewill volitional faculty. The inputs to V1 are a question (q1) and its possible answers (a1, a2, … a_n). The output is one (a*) of these possible answers.

V1(q1, a1, a2, … a_n) ↦ a*

With V1, I divorce the complicated causes and reasonings from the act of choosing. It is up to us to choose. I agree that this definition of freewill is a bit misleading, as if it is totally free from all external factors and influences. Alternatively, instead of "freewill", one can speak of "sovereign will" or "independent volition". I have my volitional faculty if not my "freewill". Basically, instead of talking about the ontological nature of free will, I restrict myself to only talking about its functional aspect.

Is there freewill in heaven?

Yes, I will still possess my own volitional faculty or independent volition.

By my definition, the volition organ is part of the soul, and the soul is formed when God's breath (spirit) interacts with the body. According to this definition, AIs do not have a freewill unless God breathes on them.

Galatians 5:1 (NKJV)
Stand fast therefore in the liberty by which Christ has made us free, and do not be entangled again with a yoke of bondage.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
What is this liberty that one is instructed to stand fast in…?

It is the liberty that any dead man has from all the entanglements of this world….. For as free as any dead man is, that is as free as every believing one is, if indeed the believing one will believe into their death and resurrection with Christ…. For the yoke of bondage is the yoke of selfhood that one is freed from by being joined with Christ in His death on the cross…. For believers are to believe something and this something is that Christ is the Savior of the world, He became the Savior of the world by being the Head of a new creation of people, this group of people becomes this new creation by believing into their death and resurrection when Christ died and was raised from the dead…. Henceforth they are called believers because they believe what is true, that Christ did indeed die for them that they might be born again into a new creation….

For it is the strength and depth of one believing this that will determine how much of Christ will be formed in one…. For Christ being formed in one is the end all of the Christian faith, for it will determine how much of Christ one will be able to express, manifest and enjoy for all of eternity…. It is that critical of a belief for all things hang on one believing into Christ, for of one would go on with God one must of all necessity believe both in their death and resurrection with Christ, that the old might die and the new come to life….

Be blessed all in the death of the old and the new coming to life…..

A fellow believing one believing into their death and resurrection with Christ…

A “Star Wars” spinoff is receiving negative attention from fans for pushing LGBT ideology in what has become a trend in recent adaptations of legendary franchises.

While “The Acolyte” premiered Tuesday, it has been clear since long before the series officially became available to the subscribers of Disney+ that the program was designed to appeal to a progressive audience. In an X post last year, the “Star Wars” fan account The Direct announced that “THE ACOLYTE has cast Abigail Thorn as Ensign Eurus, making her the first transgender actor to appear in a #StarWars series.”

Earlier this year, series creator Leslye Headland openly admitted to the goal behind the show in an interview that surfaced on X. “When I saw ‘Frozen’ as a grown woman, I cried through the entire movie,” she recalled. “There was just something about the relationship between the sisters, the … devillainization of the classic kind of fairytale bad guy, you know, the concept of true love being between two sisters and not a heterosexual relationship ... it just destroyed me completely.”

Ephesians 5:

22 Wives, [submit] yourselves to your own husbands as you do to the Lord.

Click to expand...

Was this a command from Paul?

Interestingly, in the Greek manuscript, the verb "submit" is not even there. Let's check the context in the previous verse:

21 Submit to one another out of reverence for Christ.

Click to expand...

As brothers and sisters, a Christian brother should submit to a Christian sister and vice versa.

Submit
Ὑποτασσόμενοι (Hypotassomenoi)
Verb - Present Participle Middle or Passive - Nominative Masculine Plural
Strong's 5293: From hupo and tasso; to subordinate; reflexively, to obey.

The verb here is a participle, not exactly a command.

First, Paul pointed out that believers should submit to one another for Christ's sake. With this context in mind, the following verse:

22 Wives, [submit] yourselves to your own husbands as you do to the Lord.

Click to expand...

Concerning the husband-wife relationship, a wife is to submit to her husband. For the Lord's sake, husbands and wives, brothers and sisters, all alike, should submit to one another.

23 For the husband is the head of the wife as Christ is the head of the church, his body, of which he is the Savior. 24 Now as the church submits [G5293] to Christ, so also wives should [submit] to their husbands in everything.

Click to expand...

Again, the second "submit" is not in the original Greek but is implied.

Elsewhere, Colossians 3:

18 Wives, submit [G5293] yourselves to your husbands, as is fitting in the Lord. 19 Husbands, love your wives, and do not be harsh with them.

Click to expand...

submit
ὑποτάσσεσθε (hypotassesthe)
Verb - Present Imperative Passive - 2nd Person Plural

Here, the verb "submit" is an imperative command.

Now, do husbands need to submit to their wives?

Yes, as we have seen earlier in Ephesians 5:21. In the broader context, we are to submit to one another. In the marriage context, wives are to submit to their husbands. Horizontally, she is your wife. Vertically, in terms of spiritual reality, you and she are both sons of God; you two are siblings. In any case, a husband should consult his wife before making any decision. In the end, it is up to the husband to decide.

My ungrateful parents are back in my home ( my mom is on the lease so I just have to deal with 6 people and 2 dogs in a 1 bedroom. No one pays me any mind or listens to me. It's a mess constantly. My dad doesn't work. Lays on my couch which they now broke. )

Vermont Foster Care Rule Reveals the Left’s Terrifying New State Religion​

Imagine opening your home and your heart to orphans and other children who need shelter, only to find the government demanding that you stop, not because you’d be a threat to the kids, but because you don’t believe the state religion.

That’s not a hypothetical—it actually happened in Vermont, to two Christian families who foster children in their homes, while daring to disagree with the state’s new established religion, transgender orthodoxy.



When trans-mania goes wild.

Acts 13:39 “And by him all that believe are justified from all things, from which ye could not be justified by the law of Moses.” Plus nothing meaning you don't have to do anything to be saved, and minus nothing meaning you don't have to stop doing something to be saved (giving up all your sins, live a good life, etc.). The only thing you must do to be saved is Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ and thou shalt be saved Acts 16:31. the simple gospel, Jesus paid it all, we pay nothing all our works are filthy rags before God and can never save us. Living a good life, stopping the sinning, that's not salvation, salvation is Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ.

Romans 3:19-28 19 Now we know that what things soever the law saith, it saith to them who are under the law: that every mouth may be stopped, and all the world may become guilty before God.

20 Therefore by the deeds of the law there shall no flesh be justified in his sight: for by the law is the knowledge of sin.

21 But now the righteousness of God without the law is manifested, being witnessed by the law and the prophets;

22 Even the righteousness of God which is by faith of Jesus Christ unto all and upon all them that believe: for there is no difference:

23 For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God;

24 Being justified freely by his grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus:

25 Whom God hath set forth to be a propitiation through faith in his blood, to declare his righteousness for the remission of sins that are past, through the forbearance of God;

26 To declare, I say, at this time his righteousness: that he might be just, and the justifier of him which believeth in Jesus.

27 Where is boasting then? It is excluded. By what law? of works? Nay: but by the law of faith.

28 Therefore we conclude that a man is justified by faith without the deeds of the law.

Over and over we have clear scriptures saying its faith alone, yet people still come along and say "I still think you gotta have the works" well Romans 4:5 destroys this wicked false teaching.

Romans 4:5 But to him that worketh not, but believeth on him that justifieth the ungodly, his faith is counted for righteousness.

About time!
