Should not be surprised if they find themselves arriving to the wrong location.
Simple. Obvious. Yet ignored by so many. For example, Memphians vote for Democrats and are surprised by the upturn in crime. They are taken aback when they have the worst schools in Tennessee.
Recent speculation suggests potential legal challenges for James Comey, though concrete details remain unconfirmed. A conviction would serve multiple purposes beyond mere punishment. Primarily, such an outcome could establish a precedent for accountability among high-ranking officials. Moreover, it might potentially exonerate former President Trump and his associates from previous allegations, providing clarity to a complex political narrative.
Skepticism has become my companion, tempered by years of experience. Whispers of hope often dissolve into disappointment, leaving only the faintest traces of truth in their wake.
However, if Comey evades human legal consequences, he will ultimately face divine judgment, a reckoning far more severe than any earthly tribunal could impose.
Those who attempt to evade human justice will ultimately face a profound reckoning in the afterlife, where they and their accomplices will be granted ample time to reflect deeply on the consequences of their past actions, contemplating the moral weight of their choices throughout an endless eternity.
Remove the option of student loans, especially those backed by Uncle Sam. To be sure, there would be fewer students, but then there would be huge competition for the rest. Perhaps it would even make a college education affordable. On the other hand, it just might result in the downsizing of many schools. It might even result in some closing their doors.
Many professors would take pay cuts. Some would even need to find another job, which might not be such a bad thing for American society. I mean, when you consider their contributions or the lack thereof.
Of course, it’s all pointless to consider. It would be easier to solve drug abuse problems than the dependence on student loans.
I know. I said I was done posting. And I mean it. And I am horrible for making exceptions. Still, every now and then someone will say something so typically Democratic, synonymous with dumb, and it would seem I am the only one in the world who notices just how stupid it is.
I am not sure who said it on one of those liberally controlled Sunday morning shows, but it makes little difference. It is a thought shared by most, if not all, the leadership of the Democrats.
The critique centered on Trump’s leadership style, highlighting his tendency to make unilateral decisions without prior consultation. The source suggested that such unpredictability undermines diplomatic relationships, potentially creating tension with foreign leaders who expect more measured and collaborative approaches to international relations.
First, sometimes the best thing a president can do is be strategic with opponents. Secondly, he is not being particularly deceptive. For the most part, he is doing what he said he would do during his campaign.
I guess they slept through those parts, or at least some of them did. Certainly, I have not seen anything that could be called deception. Then again, I do not keep my fingers in my ears during the campaign.
Please, if there is one person out there who believes that one national leader should be surprised, please send me your comment. However, I would hope you will not use any profanity.
When Old Joe looked around and saw that the unemployed was becoming a really big problem, he said the answer is easy. He simply hired a bunch of federal employees, though they had no purpose. It was simple. Poof. In a few days the unemployment problem went away.
Now, it would seem that Elon Musk has found a bunch of those employees and the dems have decided they don’t want to let go of them. You see, every one of them is a sure vote. You have to look hard to find a do nothing federal employee who will vote Republican, which is only logical.
The hitch is that hiring federal employees solves nothing. It increases the debt and they produce nothing. That, in essence is the cause of inflation, which, by the way was reaching record numbers, in case you remember it not.
And so it was, the employment numbers looked really good while the inflation numbers were going through the roof.
Although most of the American populace do not consider themselves Christian, most recognize the the words of our Lord Jesus Christ. The entire verse is “Give not that which is holy unto the dogs, neither cast ye your pearls before swine, lest they trample them under their feet, and turn again and rend you,” Matthew 7:6
I haven’t a clue why the words came to mind. To be sure, God could have reminded me of it. On the other hand, I just might have thought of it on my own. Regardless which way it was, God did know, even before my birth that I was going to think of it. To some degree, He just might want me to write about it. I am not saying he wants me to. However, apparently, He is going to allow me to express my thoughts on the subject.
Even if He has not told me to do it, I apparently have His permission, that is, if this gets published. He can do things like that you know. He can speak by giving me the words and He can speak by keeping me from writing the words. It is in His power.
Even so, and here is the strange part, He still gives me the choice of if I want or don’t want to write on it.
That is a sort of ultra short sermon on the theology of free will and predestination. Enough to confuse the most learned theologian, with a doctor’s degree.
At any rate, as I said, I was thinking about the verse. As in many cases, I believe that He is using His words of instruction for a multipurpose. The one most look at, the obvious one is that we should not speak His word before those who will likely treat is lightly, or worse, as if it is false.
This does prompt the question, if the guy is bad, should we never preach the word to him?
I don’t think that was the idea at all. To understand, we must look at the second meaning. To understand the second meaning, we must understand the way they looked at dogs and pigs. At that time, in that society, dogs and pigs were the worst unclean animals.
I suspect, He was talking of the pigs and dogs as much as the pearls. The pearls are highly prized. The dogs and pigs were good for nothings; bottom of the heap. It was His method of representing the worst of the worst of the human race. That is the bottom of the heap of humanity.
Now, let’s take a close look at the verse before, 7:5 which was about people who are judgmental. My guess, but do you suppose that when He is talking about the bottom of the heap, he just might be talking about those who were judgmental. Many times, Jesus spoke of two types of people, those who were sinners who sought salvation and healing, spiritually as well as physically. The others were those who were too good to need salvation. You see, the Pharisees were convinced that they didn’t need salvation. They were, by their standards without sin.
You see, he was targeting those who were “too good” to need salvation. It was they that were He was comparing with the dogs and the pigs.
To be sure, the most difficult people to lead to salvation are those who are too good to need it. Also, they are the ones who really need it the most. By Jesus’s own words, they are the dogs and the pigs. Moreover, he has warned us that if we should take care. If we try to speak the Good News to them, they just might turn on us and “rend” us, that is to say, destroy those trying to bring the Word to them.
You see, many of them have been vaccinated. They have received the vaccine of the false prophets so that they are now immune to the real word of God.
Who is Ray Epps, and who has been issuing his paychecks for the last 20 years? All those people in or around the Capitol were thrown into various prison cells on the slimmest of evidence for over four years. Not Ray. He will serve 100 hours of community service after waving and encouraging people into the Capitol Building. I am not sure he will serve that. If he does, it will be under the best conditions.
I figure he had a part in the conspiracy or he knows someone who knows someone. I mean there were people who went to prison for being in the vicinity. He stands outside the building and directs traffic, and he was sentenced to a hand slap, which he never receives.
Even now, after the change of administration, he remains in Arizona in that wonderful weather, apparently totally immune to being touched by anyone. And now, who is it that he works for? Does he work at all, or does he draw some kind of FBI paycheck through back channels?
Do you suppose they would give me an hour or three in an interrogation room with Epps, where he would be required to answer my two questions honestly? It is a cover-up that makes anything done by President Nixon or anyone around him look minor. It is far worse than VP Spiro Agnew ever thought about doing.
I THINK NOT!! I will die not knowing, as the rest of us.
It would seem, in order to make their point, they dims decided to distort the story. They weren’t the first and they won’t be the last. The dems and Satan are well aware that deceit is far more effective than a lie. It is also a reason I encourage people to read the Bible for themselves instead of relying on others. It is my personal opinion that the Bible is one of the most distorted books.
Consider the saying, “Cleanliness is next to Godliness.” While it sounds nice, I haven’t a clue who first said it. It’s not in the Bible. Then too, their are those who will say they believe in doing as the good book says; this while ignorant of what the good book says.
Then, there are those who use the word “migrant” to describe the journey of Mary and Joseph. First, the word “migrate” or any of its forms is not in the story. Please read it for yourself in the second chapter of Luke. It is better for you to read the story directly in your copy of the Bible.
They like to use the idea of Mary and Joseph being migraters for justification of an open border.
They were not migrants, nor did they cross any national borders. Their actions were totally legal. Moreover, the travel was prompted by the most powerful human on Earth at the time. The Caesar ordered Joseph to Bethlehem, in effect. Following the orders of the Caesar is not my definition of migration. I would hope it’s not yours. Otherwise, every time I go to Memphis, I would be a migrant. While technically that might be true, I would not consider it the most accurate term.
Finally, I would not use the term migration for those illegally crossing the border. Some might be criminals. Some might be smugglers. At the least they are illegal aliens.
I realize that, in the eyes of some, it is a small technicality, but it is still an undeniable fact, which the Democrats are trying their best to get us to ignore.
The truth is, they are figuratively people cutting in line, jumping in front of those obeying the laws and the rules. No matter how you look at it, it’s not just illegal, but also morally despicable. The fact that it’s wrong is likely the reason it was made illegal.
By the way, I am not the only one who dislikes the distortion of God’s word. Better that you learn from me than from God.
Old Joe kept saying he needed an act of Congress to close the border. In less than an hour after President Trump took his oath, the gates were closed. Never took one vote from Congress.
It’s proof positive Old Joe didn’t know how or he was fibbing again. If I were a betting man, I’d put my money on fibbing, though I must admit, it’s tough. The man just might not have known. They might not have told him.
The question has been asked why the dems lost if they cheated. They really should rather ask how much more Trump would have won had they not cheated.
If nothing else, Kamala should have claimed all the free campaigning she received from the media, you know, like the so-called comedy shows they put on late at night. You note that in at least one case, they were forced to provide equal time by the FCC. How many such cases were never uncovered though they were frequently as blatant, even in cases of so-called straight news.
Also, there were some cases that the dems were caught and there was retribution. How many such cases were not caught.
Kamala outright paid over a billion for the presidency. It wasn’t enough, even when you include the in-kind contributions. All in in all, it was likely double that, at least. By the way, in-kind contributions are considered illegal, that is to say cheating.
