I agree that we do not need to foist "American Democracy" down their throats. Hopefully we have learned this lesson. Based upon President Trump's speech, he is going to "let them chart their own destiny. Hopefully this can happen without a single "Americian Boot" on Iranian soil. The wild cards...
I can 100% appreciate your sentiments here! I was optimistic about Iraq and Afghanistan as well but the fact of the matter is that in both these cases, we were "liberating" people who did not want to be liberated and we never fully neutralized the enemy and FULLY CONQUERED the land! We needed to...
As soon as Iran obtains a nuclear weapon, they would be testing it on Israel. This is a cold hard fact. If Iran obtains nukes, there WILL BE a nuclear war in the future. You can count on it.
President Trump is doing good. I do not like the idea of "Regime Change" wars for the sake of regime...
It used to be that wearing a beard (or any sort of facial hair) was highly frowned upon. Not so much for those who were in "laity" but definitely for the clergy. I had a moustache and sideburns in the 80s but when I noticed that none of my favorite "Preechers" had any facial hair, I shaved mine...
And that we did. We were also in a culture where we got them "dunked" as soon as we could. I call this practice into question.
Perhaps you are a "Paedobaptist" who would baptize their baby whether they wanted to or not? Not going to debate this but simply point out that such brings about its...
Maybe he is a "Hard-Shell Baptist" who doesn't believe in "Paid Clergy?"
Looking at the Hard-Shell (Primitive) Baptists, they definitely get what they pay for!:oops:
I agree in theory with the so-called "age of accountability" in so as one is consciously aware of the "things which are clearly seen" along with Rom 5:13 and 7:9. What I would adamantly disagree with is setting a definitive "age" at which such takes place. This is different one from another. I...
Good catch! Eph 4:5 says "one Lord, one faith, ONE BAPTISM (for emphasis, not shouting) and some use this as criticism towards Baptists who will often "Re-Baptize" those who were baptized as babies or whatever. We can get into semantics over what makes a baptism valid but I believe the "One...
He was a relatively small "Side Character" to the story (he does get more screen time in Redux though) but he is what everyone remembers! How many lines are you quoting from Capt. Willard or Col Kurtz (The.....Horror....)?
Robert Duvall is my favorite actor of all time! We lost him this last week and I hope he knew the Lord but that is neither here nor there now.
I know the movie house is wicked and of the devil but no one said nothing if you went to Blockbuster and now that we have Netflix, you can stream to...
I was out "Street Preeching" in downtown San Diego and one of our members talked with a young man who said "I used to be a Christian just like you but now I worship Satan!"
My fellow street preecher had the audacity to tell this young man he believed he was "saved" because once upon a time he...
Knee-jerk reactions should always be avoided although our past experiences often shape our biases. There is much lunacy going around in the name of "Once Saved Always Saved" resulting in some really horrible orthopraxy - especially among "Suthren Babtists" of which I am loosely affiliated...
I am not sure how everyone here feels about Lent but I am very adamant about this one thing:
After lent, what ever you lent out should be returned! It's just common decency right?
Carry on!
