Um.....there.

Meme knowledge.....just a mere apprentice.

Now...where to begin......

Politics.......when do we move to Poland?

FREE entertainment.

I like FREE stuff.

Serious political question: When will Europe wake up?

aaaahh.....

Whew...deleted....

Fev - Hitler had a good thing going for Germany. Except for the millions of innocent Jews (and others).

Here it comes!!!!!

EVERYONE is typing........!!!!

You can call me Kim jon FUN!

Flaxxer....well....Christianity (properly defined) has always run counter to the world and its depravity.

True...(regarding abortion). There's no false dichotomy.

Innocent...with respect to what? Moral? Civil? Both?

Both? By what standard?

Define European standrads.

Standards.

Values & morals presupposes a moral giver, correct?

Oh...nothing surprises me. I've about seen it all.

Not trying to convince of God's existence. Just trying to get to one's epistemology & properly define terms.

Family & friends!? I feel giddy.

Seriously.....We all love what Christianity brings to the table. And society (on a basic level). No dispute there.

Stay outside.

I'm convinced that the Bible tells us how to handle people who have different opinions (of all types), people of other ethnic backrounds, etc. I don't like to give one dimensional answers to multi-dimensional issues/problems.

Hey - I'm the one being entertained. For FREE!! Bernie couldn't....oh. never mind.

The basic answer is: Christ's kingdom is NOT a political kingdom, and not of this world. If it were, he would have rounded up his followers and ousted the Romans. The Jews of His day did not like this at all. That said, Christians are to comply with civil law (show due honor our government leaders) so far as we are not required to disobey God. That said, there is nothing wrong with loving your ethnic/cultural heritage and respecting others from other cultures.

On a personal level, do all you can to live at peace with your neighbor. Mind your own business. Help whom you can who really need it.....family & church come first (on a practical leve).

Self defense is biblical. I'll defend my family to the death if so threatened.

I love the USA. I wouldn't want to live anywhere else.

Matthew - yes - Christ's kingdom includes people from every race, tribe, nation, etc.

In short...without the transforming power of the gospel, (where people from all ethnic backrounds can peacefully co-exist), uniting disparate types of people is an exercise in futilty. Any attempt to the latter will simply borrow from Christian capital in order to sound legitimate. And it has to a point in America.

Heimbach.........a German agent on behalf of GREECE...I get it.

Ich bin mude....

OK 2nd wind. Time for round two...

The rub is whether one believes in Sola Scriptura or not.

@fassel - ingest a sedative. An Avatar will be forthcoming in due time. Patience............

@MatthewHeimbach - puritans,,,blah blah..... sola scriptura is the reliable platform for a belief system.

@MatthewHeimbach - no doubt...much puritanism is lifeless and can be deadly. Sola Scriptura proves this.

@MatthewHeimbach - The reverse is true. Much church tradition is not in line with the scriptures alone.

@MatthewHeimbach - Not correct? By what standard?

@Haupstürmfuhrer Pepe - well....the essentials are clear & commanded. Non essentials....are just that.

@☦Colton of Yore☦ - And you have the tail wagging the dog!

@Haupstürmfuhrer Pepe - Sola sciptura - in the context of: Salvation by Christ alone, through faith alone, according to the scriptures alone.

@Haupstürmfuhrer Pepe - Correct. That was the context.

@Haupstürmfuhrer Pepe - Now regarding drugs/porn....the scriptures have plenty to say in principal - comparing scripture with scripture.

@Haupstürmfuhrer Pepe - Yes! The Nicene Creed is simply a codified summary of what the Bible means by...'what we believe'. It's a summary.

Great stuff - Now I'm finis. The End. SAD!
