Call it Common Core for police. But the White House, in cahoots with the Department of Justice, has set in motion a plan that will expand federal control of community police forces, via standards handed from above called the “Task Force on 21st Century Policing.” The plan was released Monday, Infowars reported. And its gist? Like Common Core, the education plan criticized by opponents as little more than a federal mandate that’s tied to funding, the just-released police plan would force local law enforcement agencies to follow federally set standards in return for receiving federal tax dollars. “The U.S. Department of Justice, through the Office of Community Oriented Policing Services [COPS] and Office of Justice Programs, should provide technical assistance and incentive funding to jurisdictions with small police agencies that take steps towards shared services, regional training and consolidation,” one of the plan’s points stated. The proposal also advocates for the federal collection of more data from local police. Read More: http://www.wnd.com/2015/03/obama-pressing-for-federal-control-of-local-police/?cat_orig=politics

Non-Christians hate Israel because Satan hates Israel. Through the Jews came the Bible and Jesus - so the Devil, and those who follow him, continually seek the destruction of the Jewish people and the nation of Israel. Only the wicked hate the apple of God's eye.

Very well said, Shiloh!

It's quite shocking that not one could be there. It's childish and it's insulting. So did they have excuses too? Their excuse is that they were showing solidarity with Obama who felt insulted that his blessing was not asked for when Bibi was invited to speak.

True. They're throwing a hissy because Boehner didn't go to Obama with hat-in-hand and ask his permission for Bibi to speak.

Here's a transcript of the speech: http://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/post-politics/wp/2015/03/03/full-text-netanyahus-address-to-congress/

After watching Bibi's speech today and reading some "Christian" responses from around the web, I really wonder... My opinion is, an actual Christian will love what God loves - and God loves Israel and the Jewish people!

Link doesn't work, Shiloh!

I also watched the speech and it truly was inspired. Israel has an awesome leader who defends his nation, while we have a President who derides and apologizes for his. Go Bibi! Of course, those who hate Israel have already started in. Over 50 Democrats never showed up and Nancy Pelosi was "near tears" and said the speech "insulted" America: http://thehill.com/homenews/house/234445-pelosi-near-tears-at-bibi-insult

It's starting. As promised, President Obama is using executive actions to impose gun control on the nation, targeting the top-selling rifle in the country, the AR-15 style semi-automatic, with a ban on one of the most-used AR bullets by sportsmen and target shooters. The Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives this month revealed that it is proposing to put the ban on 5.56 mm ammo on a fast track, immediately driving up the price of the bullets and prompting retailers, including the huge outdoors company Cabela's, to urge sportsmen to urge Congress to stop the president. http://www.washingtonexaminer.com/article/2560750 Rule of pen, AGAIN! He took over healthcare, he's granting amnesty to millions of illegals, he's taking over the internet, and now gun control via a bullet ban - WHY WON'T CONGRESS STOP THIS MAN?

So beautiful! So wonderful! I'm crying!

Grace is God's unmerited favor. Our sins are forgiven, but we still have our flesh to contend with. As long as we are in the flesh we will be at war with it. God's word is Law. They sinned the same way we do - by doing what God told us not to do. God said not to eat of the forbidden tree, Adam and Eve did - thus, they broke God's Law.

Praying for you! Hang in there!

Exactly, bo!

Just more dirt and rocks. Yippee.

Just like any other socialist/communist government, they'll try to control all communication. Once you control the message, the masses can be easily led. I cannot, for the life of me, understand how anyone can still believe Obama is not a socialist. His suppression of capitalism, creation of the nanny-state, control of business, health care, and now, one of the last free instruments of communication, all scream SOCIALIST! The Antichrist cannot be far off.

If Genesis isn't literally true, then Jesus is a liar, and the rest of the Bible should be tossed in the trash. So, praise the Lord, Genesis is literal truth!

There are tons of tunnels from Mexico into the US that are used for the drug trade. They often dig them from the inside of one building to the inside of another building across the border.

I'm not sure that's correct. In the Bible it speaks of Moses striking the slave driver, but I don't think his intent was to murder him, rather it was to simply stop him from beating the Hebrew slave. 11Now it came about in those days, when Moses had grown up, that he went out to his brethren and looked on their hard labors; and he saw an Egyptian beating a Hebrew, one of his brethren. 12So he looked this way and that, and when he saw there was no one around, he struck down the Egyptian and hid him in the sand. U really cant say his intentions there. but fact it he purposely attacked him. Nothing to imply the death was an accident Also, nothing to imply he had murder on his mind. The death seemed accidental and he panicked by hiding the body in the sand. Another indication it was accidental was the fact that he did not immediately flee. My two cents.

May I ask if you are a KJV only person?

I joined another Christian board a while back (forgive me for cheating! ) but I never got around to posting anything there!

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I thought one had to have personally seen the risen Lord to be an Apostle.

Matthias was, or course, chosen to replace Judas as the 12th Apostle, but then we don't hear anything else about him. My question is: Did Paul replace Matthias as the 12th Apostle?
