Democracy leaves a lot to be desired, but rule by PhD is still a downgrade.

Subverting expectations really shouldn't be so predictable.

Maybe this sort of thing *should* cause a riot. Maybe torpidity is just as severe a deviation from a good temper as irascibility is.

We like annihilationism because none of us really want to punish anyone in Hell for all eternity. But the question is what God said He'll do, not what we would do if we were gods. And it's not a difficult question to answer.

We need Christian fathers to realize that sending their 18 year old daughters *away* to college is actually insane. For 90% of colleges, it's insane to send your sons.

Consistently reacting to a desire for godly behavior with suspicion indicates a kind of spiritual pride worse than mere works-righteousness. The one has a lofty opinion of his ability to keep God's Word, but the other actually thinks God's Word harms him.

"I'm too lazy to bring the Gospel to unbelievers, so I'll just invite all the unbelievers in the world here instead. Also, I'm gonna hold off on actually telling them the Gospel because I wouldn't want to make them uncomfortable or anything. I'm a very holy & loving person."

Many missionaries face severe danger from the unbelievers they evangelize in the 3rd world. We should honor their courage. We should also recognize the extreme wickedness of bringing that danger here and subjecting our neighbors, our children, and our grandchildren to it.

"Hey, I've got a great evangelism opportunity for you. I'm sending a bunch of thieves, murderers, and violators who need the Gospel over to your neighborhood so you can show them loving hospitality. Tell your kids I said 'Hi.'" There's nothing loving or Christian about this.

No no you’re not deleting this one. We’re memorializing this.

"Lord, Lord, did we not cast out mean tweeters and tut-tut many naughty words in your name?"

To be crystal clear: I don't object to evangelizing foreigners--even invaders. I object to shrugging off or facilitating an invasion for the sake of evangelizing the invaders. I also object to the armchair evangelists who vote for invasion to placard their heart for the lost.

You should consider the possibility that all the people who knew this 5 years ago have much better judgment than you.

"Therefore God gave them up in the lusts of their hearts to impurity, to the dishonoring of their bodies among themselves, because they exchanged the truth about God for a lie and worshiped and served the creature rather than the Creator, who is blessed forever! Amen."

Their greatest fear is men taking matters into their own hands.

The leftist "mind" can't understand wanting to save a baby's life.

Satan employs many & various means to prevent Christians from gathering together on the Lord's Day. It is a great victory every time a group of the faithful springs up to hear God's Word and receive His sacraments despite anything the Devil can do.

According to Jesus, "whoever hears my word and believes Him who sent me has eternal life." Those who think they know better than Jesus not only prefer to replace faith with love, but usually end up replacing godly love with some other version they consider more sensible.

Yes, the only species with a capacity for moral reasoning is also the only one to recognize homosexuality for what it is. Shocker.
