Suing Founding Ministry to Retire Like Kings

Knowing why God said...

For all those things hath mine hand made, and all those things have been, saith the Lord: but to this man will I look, even to him that is poor and of a contrite spirit, and trembleth at my word. - Isaiah 66:2

The love of power, money, and a wealthy retirement has made people terribly self centered!

Why the Epstein List Anger is About Something Far More Fundamental than the List

I've never trusted any politician or government, even those I've voted for multiple times. In a democracy, we should always remain cautious about placing trust in politicians or governments.

Skepticism toward politicians and government has long been a cornerstone of American democracy. However, today the greatest challenge lies in the growing distrust of the media and the tendency to view fellow Americans with differing opinions as enemies of the nation.
Why is the media to be trusted when it is part of the same eco system as the government? It has lied and has been complicit in lies as much as anyone government has.

The Saints will meet the Lord in the air, not Rapture, at Jesus second coming, this is the first Resurrection

I believe (along with about 23 million of my friends :) ) that we are raptured at the appearing of Christ in Rev 19 - then spend 1000 years in heaven with Christ as per Rev 20, then return to Earth where the second resurrection and great white throne judgment happen.

2 Thess 1, Rev 19 (the rest were killed) and Jer 4:23-26 point to a desolate Earth during the 1000 year literal millennium

So then the saints rule/reign with Christ in heaven where as 1 Cor 6 says - they judge angels, and in fact rule over the lost with the rod of Iron (Rev 2) of judgment reviewing the records of the lost.
I see no evidence anyone is in heaven for one thousand years in Revelation 20. Please point out the scripture you believe says that.

John Oliver and atheists target Health Care Sharing Ministries

from the post "Unfortunately, the war on Christians didn’t end with the last election. T"

A significant issue today is the belief among some Christians that the so-called "war on Christianity" could be resolved through elections or government policies. The war on Christian began at the crucifixion on Golgotha. If the words of Jesus are interpreted as accurate, then the challenges facing Christianity and Christians will persist until His return to earth.

Trump calls his supporters "troublemakers" after Grand Jury orders release of Epstein files

The White House responded on Wednesday to a new Wall Street Journal report that Attorney General Pam Bondi told President Donald Trump that his name was mentioned in documents related to the investigation into the disgraced financier and sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.

The Journal's report cited senior administration officials who said Trump's name appeared "multiple" times in the Epstein files.

"This is another fake news story, just like the previous story by The Wall Street Journal," White House communications director Steven Cheung told the newspaper in a statement.

Hold On Tight! Don't Let Go!

“Depart from evil and do good,
So you will abide forever.
For the Lord loves justice
And does not forsake His godly ones;
They are preserved forever,
But the descendants of the wicked will be cut off.
The righteous will inherit the land
And dwell in it forever.
The mouth of the righteous utters wisdom,
And his tongue speaks justice.
The law of his God is in his heart;
His steps do not slip.
The wicked spies upon the righteous
And seeks to kill him.
The Lord will not leave him in his hand
Or let him be condemned when he is judged.
Wait for the Lord and keep His way,
And He will exalt you to inherit the land;
When the wicked are cut off, you will see it.” (Psalm 37:27-34 NASB1995)

This is written under the Old Covenant God had with his people Israel (Jews only), but much of it parallels over to what is taught in the New Testament under the New Covenant that God has with his people Israel, the body of Christ, his church (Jew and Gentile by physical birth, but who are spiritual Israel, only by faith in Jesus Christ). For under the New Covenant we are also taught to depart from evil (die to sin) and to do good (obey God). And this is so that we will abide (live, continue) forever with God, in Christ Jesus.

The Lord does not forsake his godly ones. And the godly ones in the New Testament are all who, by God-persuaded faith in Jesus Christ, have died with Christ to sin and who are now walking (in conduct, in practice) in obedience to our Lord’s New Covenant commands. They are those who live righteously, in practice, and who no longer make sin their practice. And to live righteously is to live according to what God requires of us in holy living, in obedience to his commands, committed to serving the Lord with our lives.

But the wicked hate the righteous. The righteous are an offense to them because they remind them that what they are doing, and how they are living is wrong in the eyes of the Lord, and that if they continue to live in sin, and not in surrender to the will of God, in walks of obedience to his commands, that they will not inherit eternal life with God, even though many of them do make professions of faith in Jesus Christ. And so the wicked may well spy on the righteous and make plans to do away with them in one way or another.

[Matt 7:13-14,21-23; Lu 9:23-26; Jn 10:27-30; Ac 26:18; Rom 2:6-8; Rom 6:1-23; Rom 8:1-14; Rom 12:1-2; 1 Co 6:9-10,19-20; 1 Co 10:1-22; 2 Co 5:10,15,21; Gal 5:16-24; Gal 6:7-8; Eph 2:8-10; Eph 4:17-32; Eph 5:3-6; Col 1:21-23; Col 3:1-17; Tit 2:11-14; Heb 3:1-19; Heb 4:1-13; Heb 10:23-31; Heb 12:1-2; 1 Pet 2:24; 1 Jn 1:1-10; 1 Jn 2:3-6,15-17; 1 Jn 3:4-10]

So, when this says here that the Lord does not forsake his godly ones, and that the Lord will not leave the righteous in the hands of those who seek to do away with them, we need to read this in the context of the New Testament teachings on the subject of sufferings and persecutions. For, although it is true that the Lord will not forsake his righteous ones, he also teaches us that to follow Jesus will mean that we will be hated and rejected and persecuted as he was, and even put to death for our walks of faith.

But even when I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil, for God is with me, and he comforts me, and he has prepared a table before me in the presence of my enemies, and surely goodness and lovingkindness and mercy will follow me all the days of my life, and I will dwell in the house of the Lord forever (see Psalm 23). So, though trials may come, and though enemies come against me, it does not mean that the Lord has forsaken me. I just need to hold on tight to him, and he will help me.

[Matt 5:10-12; Matt 10:16-39; Matt 24:9-14; Luke 6:22-23; Luke 12:49-53; Luke 21:12-19; John 15:1-21; John 16:33; John 17:14; Acts 14:22; Rom 5:3-5; Eph 6:10-20; Phil 3:7-11; 1 Pet 1:6-7; 1 Pet 4:12-17; 2 Tim 3:12; 1 Thess 3:1-5; Jas 1:2-4; 2 Co 1:3-11; Heb 12:3-12; 1 Jn 3:13; Rev 6:9-11; Rev 7:9-17; Rev 11:1-3; Rev 12:17; Rev 13:1-18; Rev 14:1-13]

As the Deer

By Martin J. Nystrom
Based off Psalm 42:1


As the deer panteth for the water
So my soul longeth after You
You alone are my heart's desire
And I long to worship You

You alone are my strength, my shield
To You alone may my spirit yield
You alone are my heart's desire
And I long to worship You

Trump administration says judges' removal of U.S. Attorney Alina Habba about 'politics'

It's not politics to note that she's not a prosecutor and is not qualified for the role of US Attorney. Not to mention the way she has weaponized the DOJ for political purposes during her short interim tenure.

trumps ambasador calls canadians nasty.

He isn't insulting all Canadians - read the quotes - he is describing what it is like dealing with Canadian LEADERSHIP
Trump's idea of somebody NASTY is anyone who won't buckle and kiss his whatever! Of did you not hear him say this? Mocking and seeking to degrade all nations of the world? Look get this straight....if the U.S. is calling us nasty (through it's leadership) the rest of the world looks upon that that it should be considered as a badge of honor. They KNOW inside themselves they all need to tell Trump to go jump in the lake.

Former Trump supporter Pamela Hemphill refuses Jan. 6 pardon; apparently the only one to do so (ETA: there is another...)

Says the recalcitrant procrastinating ape.
Once again you deliberately and dishonestly quote a portion of my post, thereby giving a different meaning from the one I intended. I made it clear that there were more plausible and benign explanations for your questionable action. By repeating the offence you have eliminated those as viable options. Shame on you.
