As an ex-Protestant who hopes the churches will one day reunify, I'm not particularly fond of the term. Wolsley might have accurately explained the term "co" in the Latin sense, but if the Catholic Church ever hopes to bring the Protestants under her umbrella, areas of potential confusion need to be dealth with.

In my opinion, the term "co-redemptrix" is one of them.

That's not to say that I don't think she's important. My old Protestant pastor said to me once about Marian apparitions "There's been a lot of them!"

Then he added "I think they're a judgement on a divided church".

God has been sending Mary with mesages, and a lot of Christians haven't been taking any notice.

She points to Christ viz. as at the wedding at Cana "Do whatever He tells you".

Odd: First you've stated "it's not credible" to think that anyone would skip to the last two seconds. Then you imply that the WH knew it was there when it was posted. This presents a problem for your argument. If it's not credible that anyone would skip to the last two seconds, thus missing the portion in question, then it's also not credible to assume that the WH wouldn't have done the exact same thing. OTHO, if the WH knew the two seconds were there when posting the clip, it's no longer credible to assume that "anyone" would not miss the last two seconds of the link I posted.

Like it or not, as what happened in this very forum has shown, it is entirely plausible someone wouldn't watch the video all the way to the last two seconds even after it was pointed out that the portion in question is at the very end. That's not going to sit well with some, but there it is.

Bottom line is the President is ultimately responsible for the post.

Maybe, but there are a lot of coincidences when it comes to the number 666.

Coincidences are things that can lead to superstitions. Friday the 13th was a bad day for the Knights Templers, so people assumed it was bad luck. Like every other day, bad things happen on Friday the 13th, so people reinforce the superstition. Walking under a ladder is also bad luck, but it was originally because somebody working on the ladder might drop something on your head. There is no magic, just human superstition expanded from actual events. If you see signs of Satan everywhere, are you giving power to Satan or God?

Correct. It was NBC. The BBC and other broadcasters didn’t edit out the booing.

Why do the Republicans and other “conservatives“ want to limit immigration so badly?

It's not that we want to "limit" immigration... It's that we want to control immigration, and not allow immigration to control us.

...Imagine living your life in such a way that your environment controls your every move, a life where what people say about you is how you view yourself, an environment where you do what the world tells you to do. But no, If you want to be free, YOU control how you view yourself, YOU control what job you want, and YOU control your own destiny... This is the basis of freedom, and this is the foundation of American representation that we wish to hold onto. Controlling who enters our country is an extension of American core values. We cannot allow the entire world to flood into our country - we will lose representation of who we are, and we will succumb to the world, and become the world.

Please try and place yourself in my shoes with thinking this way. Then respond after. I would wholeheartedly appreciate a soulful response on why this is either incorrect thinking, or understandable thinking.

I can see this. It was interesting to read what other Christians think of the moon landings and on the forum you gave a link for, on the moon landing thread they have a poll & there are quite a few who don't believe the moon landings happened & they state this also.

No I'm not. Empathy in this case is being used to go along with sin and say that it's all okay and that God made them that way. Embrace it, support it, even celebrate it.

Censorship isn't common, but marketing is extremely common. NBC wants its viewers to be in a happy mood so that they'll keep watching and therefore will keep watching all the ads. I wasn't in the editorial room, but that's my guess for the cuts they made.

I had some concern that the crowd might boo our athletes. I'm glad that didn't happen. They're athletes, not legislators. The vice-president -- eh, he's fair game.

Jesus is the savior of all men because He died for the sins of the world. He did not force Himself on all men, but all men had a chance to be saved. You are correct in that some of those who received His testimony and endure will rule over those on the new earth. Those on the new earth are those who did not receive His testimony, yet they did aid the brethren of Jesus.

Isaiah 66:22 "For as the new heavens and the new earth Which I will make shall remain before Me," says the Lord, "So shall your descendants and your name remain. 23 And it shall come to pass That from one New Moon to another, And from one Sabbath to another, All flesh shall come to worship before Me," says the Lord. 24 "And they shall go forth and look Upon the corpses of the men Who have transgressed against Me. For their worm does not die, And their fire is not quenched. They shall be an abhorrence to all flesh." NKJV

In verse 24 the people on the new earth will look on the corpses of those who transgressed against God. Corpses indicate a dead body. Not all men will be saved. God wanted it that way but left it up to the person to decide where they go.

We are all "near" the judgment. We have an immediate need to respond to the message and to deliver the message. That's what we should be doing.

Is anyone talking about the Kingdom of God? People get mad at me when I talk about it. God's Kingdom must have something to do with justice. We know that God's justice is not the same as man's justice. In fact, I am told it is against the law to teach God's justice in law school. AT least the school my sister in law went to.

Justice as God defines it: restoring what was broken, healing what was damaged, and setting creation back into alignment. The Kingdom of God is described as:

God’s presence revealed
God’s justice made visible
the world restored to its intended order
evil removed from the community
boundaries re‑established
people transformed, not punished

So these “facts” (where are you getting your numbers/stats?…sounds dubious) are to impress upon us the virtues of legalizing abortion nation-wide at tax payer expense? (Abortions had been government subsidized before overturning Roe V Wade) Abortion necessarily is against the Christian faith. Many taxpayers are Christians and conscience stricken Christians are opposed to funding abortion.

The facts are to show people that the abortion issue is still with us, worse than ever and now mothers are dying along with it.

Maybe these 4 things the Apostles pointed out, knowing they would find God's other instructions in righteousness through Moses.........

I completely disagree with your "4 Law" philosophy, based on what is actually written in Scriptures. It would be a great topic of study for those seeking honor, glory and immortality.

I hope you might re-consider the message the Spirit of Christ was sending through Acts 15.

Im afraid I could not reconsider what is plainly written. The council was NOT discussing the moral law, but the law of Moses, of rite, ritual and ceremony. There was much debate, there would have been no debate concerning murder, adultery, stealing would there, an instant decision would have been made! Im afraid, the truth is, whether people accept it or not, as sin is the transgression of the law, if you are correct, by the leaders of the church only asking gentiles to follow four laws, it is an indisputable fact they gave gentiles a licence to sin, no way around that Im afraid
And your emboldened is proved to be false by Acts21:25 Years after the Jerusalem council the leaders of the church confirmed to Paul they were STILL(STILL) only asking gentiles to follow the same four laws, none had been added.

No, that's you.
I said your statement was rubbish because it was.

666 is not, in itself, war against God.
People whose name adds up to 666 are not enemies of God.
666 BC and 666 AD were not Satanic years.
People in London might have thought the end of the world was coming in 1666; it didn't.
Psalm 66:6 tells of people praising God for the things he has done.

People who are into conspiracy theories see 666 everywhere and make it mean something that it doesn't.

From the beginning, the conflict has been between worshiping man or God. Satan elevated himself to challenge God, and he wanted mankind to do the same. If Satan can cause man to elevate himself to the level of God, mankind has committed the same sin as Satan. The number 6 is the number of man, because mankind was created on the sixth day. Therefore, taking the number of 666 is a proclamation of rejecting God and worshiping man who is a puppet of Satan. The rejection of God is the key. The number 6 does not have magical power, because it is just a number, but it does represent incompleteness. Therefore, the year 666AD or some time or object that happens to contain the number 666 is meaningless, unless it is intentionally used to indicate a rejection of God as in the occult.

God's applicable laws are not arbitrary, you cannot pick and choose which ones you obey and which ones you ignore, you cannot pick and choose whether you commit sin or not.

This is true, as the Jesus "of the Bible" teaches, along with the the entire Law and Prophets that HE Inspired as the Word of God, and as Paul teaches both Jew and Gentile. Men are to Live by "Every Word" of God, Because HE IS God, and He is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him. He inspired the Holy Scriptures to be written "For our sakes no doubt", and according to Paul they are trustworthy "for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness: That the man of God may be perfect, (As Christ Commanded) throughly furnished unto all good works"

So according to Scriptures you are right. Men are not instructed by God to Judge some of His instruction in Righteousness, as worthy of their honor and respect, while also judging some of His instruction in righteousness, as beneath them and unworthy of their honor and respect.

This was the philosophy of the mainstream religion of Paul's Time, it didn't work out so well with them. I'm not sure why someone, Jerw or Gentile, would think they could adopt the same philosophy today, and be accepted by God.

under grace1 said:
The argument fails anyway. Years later, the leaders of the church confirmed to Paul they were STILL(STILL) only asking gentiles to follow the same four laws(Acts21:25)

While a religion that only commands that men don't drink blood, or eat meat from animals that have been dispatched through strangling, or don't engage in fornication or from idolatry, might be quite seductive to some, and a great marketing strategy to grow a religious business. But I'm quite sure that Jesus Words that I posted, doesn't advocate a religion where stealing is acceptable, along with hating your brother in your heart, or killing people, or holding a grudge against them for no reason. Or coveting, or refusing to love our neighbor as ourselves, or Loving God with all your heart and soul. And a religion that preaches or implies that Jesus' teaching and Words were only for men who were born with Jewish DNA is absurd, in my view.

And if a person reads all of Paul's words, that he taught to both Jew and Gentile, it becomes perfectly clear that he didn't teach Gentiles that repentance for them only means "Yielding themselves" servants to obey the 4 commandments you are promoting.

Perhaps if men might consider the actual Word of the Jesus "of the Bible", and accept that both He and Paul directed all men, Jew and Gentile, to "Repent, Turn to God, and "DO Works" Worthy of repentance". And that maybe, in many Pagan religions of this world God placed us in, men engage in unholy, unrighteous and unclean sexual practices, whose eating habits are judged by God as unholy and unclean. Religions where men worship images of God in the likeness of men, and create their own high days in worship of their image etc.

And the implication of this philosophy, that the Holy Scriptures are only trustworthy for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness, for Jews and not ALSO for Gentiles is not only unbiblical but also absurd in my view.

Maybe these 4 things the Apostles pointed out, knowing they would find God's other instructions in righteousness through Moses as all men even you and and I have found, were more important to discern and repent of at first, for the New Gentiles converts, than to turn away from God, and adopt the religious traditions and philosophies of the mainstream religion of Paul's time, who taught for doctrines the Commandments of men, and not God. Who full well transgressed God's commandments that they might live by their own religious traditions.

I completely disagree with your "4 Law" philosophy, based on what is actually written in Scriptures. It would be a great topic of study for those seeking honor, glory and immortality.

I hope you might re-consider the message the Spirit of Christ was sending through Acts 15.

The world heard JD Vance being booed at the Olympics. Except for viewers in the US | Bryan Armen Graham

The real risk for American broadcasters is not that dissent will be visible. It is that audiences will start assuming anything they do not show is being hidden

www.theguardian.com

You'll have to talk to the National Broadcasting Corporation, who's carrying the Winter Olympics. Just let some of us know when you do; most likely they'll squirm, and some of us would find that entertaining.

As it happens, US networks can and will delete portions of broadcasts. Most famously it's putting "live" broadcasts on a delay of a few seconds in order to remove foul language. In other examples, it includes portions of live events they'd just rather we not see. Such as NFK players taking the knee during the National Anthem, precisely because that put the NFL (and by extension the network) in a bad light with many viewers. When they can't edit it out, such as that live interview at a NASCAR event where the crowded chanted one thing and the network reporter claimed they were chanting another. And that's where "Let's go, Brandon," came from.

You might not want to share your diagnosis with everyone. You can explain away idiosyncrasies as they arise such as I am a bit of an introvert, or I am not much of a hugger.

You might be interested in knowing that Asperger’s Syndrome was removed as a diagnosis by the American Psychiatry Association in 2014. Everything is now wrapped up in three types of Autism. Type one, type two and type three. The Symptoms of Asperger’s Syndrome were too similar to Autism.

At one time I believed that I had Asperger’s syndrome until I discovered that it was removed as a diagnosis.

We hope the site problems here are now solved, however, if you still have any issues, please start a ticket in Contact Us
