    is israel good or bad?

    You are correct. The secular left seems to ignore the fact that Israel does not simply occupy the land they are on, but they own that land as a gift of God.

    The 1689 London Baptist Confession of Faith

    I have been reading these posts and we started a study on election in Sunday class yesterday. I took this post with me and shared it at the end of class. A man in our class said that he was afraid to believe in election because he would be devistated to think he was not one of the elect. Our...

    is israel good or bad?

    I believe Israel is a very good country with perhaps the best national leader in the world. Benjamin Netanyahu is guarding his small country from constant threats and is very clear that he will do whatever it takes. Can you imagine living in the middle of a so much threat?

    Plano police officer: "We need your help"

    You are so right. 95+ are good and want the bad out of their departments. There have been cases in our area where police officers have been arrested by other police. I read Cactus Jack's ridiculous post and I don't blame them for not posting here. I doubt there is anything they could say...

    Fear of God

    In other words, we fail when we seek man's will rather than God's will.

    Plano police officer: "We need your help"

    That is to bad that people are being arrested without the proper cause. Here, the police are looking for ways not to arrest. An example is the marijuana possession, disorderly conduct, certain thefts, etc. They are permitted to issue citations with suspect's promising to appear, rather tan...

    Plano police officer: "We need your help"

    Crowns&Laurels - I find this post very interesting and curious as to what part of the country in which you reside. I leave near Dallas and all the jails here are trying to come up with innovated ways to get inmates released earlier. They let many out on personal recognance, work release...

    Plano police officer: "We need your help"

    I believe in doing everything you mentioned above. Certainly I believe officers and their departments are accountable to those they serve. If you will check with the FBI, they will tell you that they will gladly investigate a citizen's complaint against a police officer doing the things you...

    Plano police officer: "We need your help"

    The large majority of police officers are professional, hard working, mature and responsible adults. When police officers " screw up at work" it cost their lives as well. The lives of their families are as important as yours. You may not see it that way. A day does not go by that an officers...

    Plano police officer: "We need your help"

    I thank God for the men and women who serve and protect our communities. Instead of running from disaster, they run to it and place their own lives at risk. The news only shows police when bad things happen. Yes, bad things are going to happen as long as police officers are human and are...

    Pray for Kim Davis (the Kentucky court clerk)

    There are two things that Barack Obama and SCOTUS needs to be told: 1. Woe to those that call evil good and good evil. Is 5:20, and 2. Romans 14 states, for we shall all stand before the judgement seat of Christ. For it is written "as I live, says the Lord, Every knee shall bow to Me, And every...

    Baptist is not a Denomination

    I believe we have the issue answered and I would like to close the issue as to whether the SBC is a denomination? How does one close a thread?
