It's a lock with many, that's for sure. We will just have to wait for that day and see. It's nerve-racking to me. I know that God is in charge, but that doesn't stop my worry-meter from running overtime.

Well, there is no law forbidding a person in prison from running for President. Not even a felon. However, even if he is found guilty of any of these charges - which I don't think he will be, but I could be wrong, it's just my thinking that he won't get prison time. The goal is to make him lose face, break him, and "cancel" him. All these things do is to bolster him and his base. As for your question - there is no plan B. Not to my knowledge.

Biden is losing voters by the scores. Black people, Latino people, and women. I'm still praying on what to do. I don't believe my vote will be lost - whether I vote for Trump or someone else. I know that YOU don't hate people. I can tell by your posts that you are not that kind of person.

You've heard that phrase - "that's not a hill i would die on" or "that IS a hill I would die on". For example, I have my opinions about certain Bible versions, but that opinion is NOT a hill that I would die on. I won't go down arguing with a stubborn "fence post" about it. Then again, I have my beliefs about who Jesus Christ is. I would die on that hill. No turning back on that belief. This article is about our conversations with one another and asking us to follow the example of the one who DID DIE on a hill and looking at the way HE spoke from that hill. It's worth the read. Dying On The Hill vs. Attacking Others On The Hill – Proclaim & Defend (proclaimanddefend.org)

I disagree with this, Rick. The President of the United States sets the tone for everything - public discourse, how Americans deal with each other in not agreeing with one another, and much more. Right now - we are in a HOT MESS of hate and vile anger towards the "other side". I know that liberals hate conservatives with a devilish vengeance because I've read it, heard it, and seen it. Obama, Hillary, and Biden/Harris lead that charge. But there are so many conservatives that I personally know that hate with a passionate hate like I've never seen before. And Trump leads the hate brigade for the uber right. He delights in insulting others, exalting himself, and bringing others down. Uber conservatives just follow his lead and it breaks me every time I hear it. We NEED someone in office who can LEAD the NATION. No one will make everyone agree, but there's GOT to be someone who can fight against the hate that is from the devil. America doesn't have much time left if we don't stop murdering each other with our hearts, minds, words, and mindless narcissism. Jesus said that hate was the same as murder.

Just because a devout Christian may or may not vote for Trump does not mean that they intend to vote for Biden. I absolutely CANNOT vote for Biden - too much I oppose there. There are write-ins, abstaining from voting, other minor candidate to vote for and other choices for Christians who do not support Trump to think about.

I do!! A lot!! I pray for Bush, Obama, Trump, and Biden. I pray for their salvation, the salvation of their family members, and more. I pray for God to help Joe Biden. I pray a lot of other things. I pray for the unity of our nation - as we are now divided almost to the point of no return.

You are precisely right. Getting "wet" for ceremonial cleanliness/purity was well known by Jews of the Old Testament. The tvilah and mikvah were well known. Baptism would not have come as a surprise to Jews.

TrueFollower - I just can't see everything in this much of a black/white view. Both men - in MY very, very humble opinion are not fit for office. So if I don't vote for Trump, I am not a "true follower of God"? I don't think you meant that like it sounded. I am a true follower of the Lord Jesus Christ - and the thought of voting for Donald Trump makes me sick. Why don't conservatives have another choice? Why do you think God WANTS to bless America? We are OVERRUN with porn, trafficking, transgenderism, lying officials, fake churches, dysfunctional families, horrible choices for entertainment, and so MUCH more evil. I can't grasp that some believe that Trump is the answer to all of our problems. If, as a conserative, I do vote for Trump - it's going to take a lot of prayer for me and a lot of Pepto-Bismal. [Not laughing about that at all]

I'm going to let the very scripture you cite answer your question. Matthew 6:16-18 “When you fast, do not look somber as the hypocrites do, for they disfigure their faces to show others they are fasting. Truly I tell you, they have received their reward in full. But when you fast, put oil on your head and wash your face, so that it will not be obvious to others that you are fasting, but only to your Father, who is unseen; and your Father, who sees what is done in secret, will reward you.” What this is saying is don't draw dramatic attention to what you are doing. Don't "perform" a starvation act. It's fine to say, "No thanks - I'm fasting today. " And on those days, Jesus says - wash up, perk up, and don't let anyone think you are "suffering". It's fine to tell someone if they offer to take you to lunch or bring a lunch to share with the office.

I'd rather..... pray the same request 10,000 times to God - in brokenness and tears and earnestness..... than to be silent..... and have the devil bask in that silence.

You are either going to focus on the great love of God or you are going keep your mind stayed on your problems. It's your choice. I understand - completely understand the struggle. I've had a BAD, BAD day and it's just 1:00. Keep a few scriptures written down to read when you are overwhelmed and remember what @Tristen said. "God knew exactly what he was getting with you and loved you anyway." Here's a good scripture. Philippians 4:6-7 “Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.” In "EVERY" situation. With "prayer" and "petition", WITH "thanksgiving".

I have no agenda. Just responding to your post.

You ARE aware that just as many prophecies in the Bible are dual - the term, "the day of the LORD" has both near and distant fulfillments.

I read your first two posts and said to myself - {He's going to post a third time accusing us of being too dumb to answer] You don't disappoint. I'd like to know why YOU believe that these are the same events. And note, I already know why you think these are the same event. I'd just like to hear you admit it.
