March 27, 2024, 12:55:24 pm Mark says: Shocked Shocked Shocked Shocked  When Hamas spokesman Abu Ubaida began a speech marking the 100th day of the war in Gaza, one confounding yet eye-opening proclamation escaped the headlines. Listing the motives for the Palestinian militant group's Oct. 7 massacre in Israel, he accused Jews of "bringing red cows" to the Holy Land.

September 24, 2017, 10:45:16 pm Psalm 51:17 says: The specific rule pertaining to the national anthem is found on pages A62-63 of the league rulebook. It states: “The National Anthem must be played prior to every NFL game, and all players must be on the sideline for the National Anthem. “During the National Anthem, players on the field and bench area should stand at attention, face the flag, hold helmets in their left hand, and refrain from talking. The home team should ensure that the American flag is in good condition. It should be pointed out to players and coaches that we continue to be judged by the public in this area of respect for the flag and our country. Failure to be on the field by the start of the National Anthem may result in discipline, such as fines, suspensions, and/or the forfeiture of draft choice(s) for violations of the above, including first offenses.”
September 20, 2017, 04:32:32 am Christian40 says: "The most popular Hepatitis B vaccine is nothing short of a witch’s brew including aluminum, formaldehyde, yeast, amino acids, and soy. Aluminum is a known neurotoxin that destroys cellular metabolism and function. Hundreds of studies link to the ravaging effects of aluminum. The other proteins and formaldehyde serve to activate the immune system and open up the blood-brain barrier. This is NOT a good thing."

Is it just me, or is anyone else sickened when you hear in mainline Churchianity ciricles when they tell you how "Don't worry, it's God's will for you to get a good job where you can be a witness to others, and use your money", etc, etc.

Seriously - almost every day I'm ready articles of some kinds of record povertyness. Mainstream America may not realize this, but parts of this country has been hit by some pretty bad povertyness. And it's not just now, it's been for at least the last couple of years ago - you have families going from motel to motel trying to survive. There's tent cities across the country. Majority of companies now aren't even hiring anymore, while some of them are downsizing. The job market for college grads is incredibly bad(ie-at college job fairs, it's nothing more than a show-and-tell now).

So pretty much it's as if the focus is on ONESELF in Churchianity, and pretty much no mercy toward the rest of Americans that are living in tent cities, going from motel to motel, having their unemployment benefits being run out and still can't find anything, etc. I mean you look at the up-to-date annual budgets for any typical church in your area, and it's in the near-7 figures(my uncle's Lutheran Church in Ohio was at $500K in MAY - unsurprisingly, the pastor preached a "what you can do for your community" gospel).

Pro 21:25  The desire of the slothful killeth him; for his hands refuse to labour.
Pro 21:26  He coveteth greedily all the day long: but the righteous giveth and spareth not
.

OK, look at this passage above - one(including myself) may look at verse 25(first one) and then just STOP right there saying, "Yeah, it means if we don't have 9-5 paying jobs, then we deserve our consequences". HOWEVER...look at the VERY NEXT verse...1) Verse 26 starts out with HE, which is OBVIOUSLY referring to the slothful described in the previous verse. So what does verse 26 talk about at the beginning? And linking it to the previous verse above?

Yeah, you got it! How can a lazy bum, who has the intention of coveting all these material things, just do NOTHING all day? You see where this is going? You would think he would be smart enough(or however you want to call it) to get his foot in somewhere to covet greedily? So yeah, in the NT, Jesus and the Apostles warn about coveteousness - so pretty much these people who covet filthy lucre(for example, the typical 501c3 Churchianity pastor) refuse to labour in the word of God, and therefore their slothfulness in labouring in the word of God will killeth them, as they will show their bad fruit.
