I really don’t think anyone could have done any better than Trump with both of those problems.
I hear you Tenacious. I love that name and it tells me more about you on a deeper level. I know the bible very well. I studied it and tried to live by it for around 30 years. The last 5 of those years was tough to say the least. No reason to bring up all the division. Let me explain the basics to you from my experience only. The bible has many books inside of it. Written at many different times in history. Moses was a writer as was many prophets in the OT. The NT was written by many authors as well and have many books as well. Mark, John, Mathew, Luke, Paul, Peter and a few others. Christians were scum of the earth and beaten and eaten alive. They were arrested and thrown in prison. If you left your faith from youth and joined the radicals of their time, then you lost everything. It was a give up everything and die for your beliefs. The Disciples were losers and everyone except the other disciples of Christ hatted them. That is not legend talk, that is history. Their was a man named Jesus that cruised the earth too. In 312 Constantine converted and the next day Christians were the winners because of the emperors conversion to Christ. That is when the Roman Catholic church was started in Rome. No common man had a bible at all back then. Letters were written and read to the flocks all the time.
Which council decided the books of the Bible?
In A.D. 363, the Council of Laodicea stated that only the Old Testament (along with the Apocrypha) and the 27 books of the New Testament were to be read in the churches. The Council of Hippo (A.D. 393) and the Council of Carthage (A.D. 397) also affirmed the same 27 books as authoritative.
No bible for anyone really until the great printing press of 1440 all in time for the the reformation movement.
What were the 3 main ideas of Martin Luther?
Terms in this set (6)
- Luther's main ideal 1. Salvation by faith alone.
- Luther's main ideal 2. The bible is the only authority.
- Luther's main ideal 3. The priesthood of all believers.
- Salvation by faith alone. Faith in god was the only way of salvation.
- The bible is the only authority. ...
- The priesthood of all believers.
The Way was another name for the name the people gave the followers of Christ in those times. Their was only one group or one church back then and they were murdered and fed to Lions and wild animals for being non violent. That is a fact Messy and it was wrong. The disciples had no weapons until after 312. Did you know that Jesus never ever used the word Christian and I think they were only called that name because they were stupid for letting their kids and loved ones get killed. It was more, "those stupid Christ tee i ans" and just stop teaching his message of love & forgiveness and you shall live. It was said that Jesus came Full of Grace & Truth. How you could not get behind that message. Plus he said, "forgive your enemies and love them." Now that is radical Messy

It does appear you are twisting passed down " DATA " quite a bit....
A KNOWN FACT........!
DEMOCRATS = CRIMINALS
All have sinned and fall short bro. Were all Criminals. If you lied once in your life in front of the ultimate judge (Judge God), then you have committed perjury and that is a crime. Crime once=Everyone a Criminal, including you Mr Self Righteous.....lol. You get the point I hope. Easy tiger, relax. It's a beautiful day and God is in control. Paul said in Rom 8:28 that everything works out for the good of those who love. Love your enemies is the key to peace. I'm now a peacemaker. It's my calling I think. At least for today. Yes we can love each other and no we won;t fight anymore someday.....
Yeah... but I'd rather see all that applied in a way that feels more relevant. Like for instance you seem to lionize Trump. Like if you really believe all that stuff in the bible, and hold it dear to your heart, I'm having trouble squaring it all up.
Maybe you could pontificate on how all that works? As an honest question, why do you think so many Christians vote for Trump?
I just call him a lion because he seems like one. Please don;t percieve that as some hidden message like Messy thinks. Think with your brain. I believe the bible is a history book of many things that happened. You can twist it into your favor anytime you like. I wouldn;t do that but many do. It's a book with some pearls of wisdom too. I dont believe it's a book with some hidden treasure map and only those who went to college can explain it. Its been been hijacked and that's unfortunate. I find great things in the bible.
Just because someone says their a "Christian" does not make them a true follower of Jesus. Jesus says you know my people by the way they act towards their enemies. Jesus had no weapons, never. Peter had a sword and used it. Everyone I knew who told me their Christian has bought a gun in the last few months. I have zero guns and will never have one. I will not go out in a blaze of violence. I'm for peace.

As soon as someone says, when discussing politics, that they’re a “Christian” then I know they hate the poor, they love guns and they hate gays. It’s shorthand.
Which would be alight right to me if these guys would just come out and say it. But of course it's always these three paragraphs from this thousand year old text that's been changed a bunch of times. And in the name of political correctness the rest of us are suppose to pretend we don't see the hustle.
What's even worse is they always, always, always kill the conversation because I mean really who can argue with God?
So you've studied the bible for 30 years and that's what you've got? Hmm...
Hypocrite is another word. I just spoke to old dear religious friend and he's moving and he has guns and bible and his faith and he's looking for a new place to go. He's really afraid for some reason. He asked me why I'm so numb and not willing to protect my kids from intruders and or looters and buy a gun. I told him that I would offer them anything they want to eat and oh well. Then I accidentally said, "sh*t bro, just love everyone." Oh boy, he then says, "what happen to you brother, do you still believe in the bible." All because I let a word out like that. Keep in mine my friend has been divorce twice, drinks all the time, has a private Tinder account ((why he got divorced in the first place)) and he's over 300 lbs and just not looking good right now in life. He wants some new heaven he he get's to go to and thinks most, if not all of us are going to hell. I told him hell is what you make it and you seem to be living in hell as we speak. I told him to stop with his nonsense and he hung up on me all mad. Later i was told from another old friend of his that I was not a Christian anymore and I've back slide and hell is waiting for me and my family all because.
It;s called experience and with time you can figure things out.
You go around saying you love everyone and those self-identified “Christians” get upset. That’s classic.
I'm trying to practice loving everyone. I will admit I got tested the last few years and failed the love test big time. In fact, i suck at it. However, it doesn;t mean I don;t try. I saw so much fear it came to me as well. I talked with my wife about a gun and we both decided to be peacemakers too. Probably will get killed for it but oh well. I believe this is a test to choose true love. Very very hard test. Jesus said the spirit is willing but the body is weak. Paul said he failed all the time. I'm only talking bible stuff because my new friend Tenacious asked me questions.
People talking about guns like we are all going to be invaded or we need to “fight tyranny” are all nuts, you know. So don’t worry about that.
Well, China is on lock down again. Should we believe them this time? Also, I saw a festival down in Seattle on tv today and I mean that. People in the area seem cool with everything and walking around with the kids too. Plus, its a right to carry state so you can have a gun and carry it around. Tucker made fun of them last night and I thought that was wrong. I think they should just give it a try. A big change is among us and its hard for people who had their foundations and traditions ripped from them. This already happen to me three years ago so i got a head start on all this.
Tucker is poison. Angry, smarmy, hostile closed-minded, racist, fear-mongering poison.

I agree with everything Mr Carlson says.
He does however need to get rid of the toupee.
