National ID Card is coming soon

[Fez]

It's nothing new...

Luk 2:1 In those days a decree went out from Caesar Augustus that all the world should be registered.

Luk 2:2 This was the first registration when Quirinius was governor of Syria.

Luk 2:3 And all went to be registered, each to his own town.

Luk 2:4 And Joseph also went up from Galilee, from the town of Nazareth, to Judea, to the city of David, which is called Bethlehem, because he was of the house and lineage of David,

Luk 2:5 to be registered with Mary, his betrothed, who was with child.

Maybe the ID back in Davis's day was the lack of forskin.

Bwhahahahaha. That would have made for a terrible job if thats the case.

Hi, Ruck! And all I can say is I guess they wouldn't have counted us girls back then.....

Hummmm...... just a random thought that might be right or not, but it seems to me as though you gals might have been right in their with the count of the chickens and sheep.... A guy had to pay your father for you to be his wife so he sort of considered you his...... ahhhhhh how to say that peaceably........????

[~candice~]

One question for all of you who think this is a good idea: What happened when David numbered the people of Israel?

There was only two reasons to number everyone. To go to war, or to take taxes. You already have both! I don't understand why you raised this issue when it was the motivation behind David's census that made it ungodly and have the consequences it had.

[mizzdy]

When did God tell us not to take a census as he did Israel????

We are required by constitutional law to count the people every ten years......

Besides that, this has nothing to do with counting the people..... just to be able to prove who you are and if you are a citizen.

Maybe the ID back in Davis's day was the lack of forskin.

It wasnt God idea to take this particular census, 1 Chron. 21:1 Now Satan stood up against Israel, and moved David to number Israel. So God was angry at David, David disobeyed God. Yes God does count His people for His own reasons and at His own times. Counting people for a census can go in many directions and for many different reasons. What have you done to the Sam I know! lol Not that I think this national id thing is either good or bad, it could be both.

shalom,

Mizz, that Sam had some rather amazing enlihgtenments...... He got a grasp on some things that he'd been pondering for a really long time, and his priorities shifted as to what's important and what's minor and what's to worry about and what not.

As for the ID thing you are right.... it could be something used for good or it could be perverted into something bad..... The old Sam used to only see the bad..... He also saw the shortsightedness of what he'd been doing and decided to change.

Can't say I am not surprised! but in a good way! I am glad that God showed you what you were asking after. There is a danger of anything during south and being used by that advesary but frankly not every single thing is a conspiracy or something we need to be upset or worried after. Now if I could only convince some family members of that!

shalom,

Woman were rarely counted in the total of people nor were they counted with the chickens and sheep, they just seemed to not be counted unless they held property, I could be off about that though. It all goes back to coveture.

Hey Glory!! How you been sis. And you are right, but they may have wanted to be sure.

Doing great! Where have you been? And, just so I don't hijack anyone's thread........I'm glad we have just plain ol' census takers these days!

In and out...I was dropping by every now and then to see who was posting. I wish I could retire and be a Census taker. I''m 50 years to young for that though. (I say 50 because I probably wont get any decent social security check until I'm over 80.)

Well, my wife and I are both retired. I'm 65 but she's got a few years to go for ss. Just to note that one can not live on Social Security even now. Make other arrangements. I don't mean if you can, I mean do it. The both of us working adds up to nearly 80 years and we put back our whole lives and never lived above our means. While the SS is nice, we really don't have to have it if the other things we put in savings don't go away.

however it's always possible that it could all go puff over the weekend and one has to be prepared to just let the lord provide like the birds and the bees.

I have a drivers licenxe that identifies who I am. I fail to see the problem with an ID that says I'm a Citizen of the United States and identifies me as me.... It will be no different than my drivers license...

I am from Barbados in the Caribbean and an ID is issued to all citizens from 16 years. No one here has complained about it. When you go to the bank you use for identification. I am wondering why people would resent something like this. It seems rather strange.

Fear.

[Bold Believer]

Yes, the Constitution says count the people every ten years. Nothing wrong with that. What the Constitution doesn't say is to require a National Identity Card. They can stuff it into a place of their choosing.

I think I agree.... the same people who are bucking this are the very same ones who complain about illegals getting things from tax payers...... weird.
