You know I hear stuff like this, but I don't know much about politics. People are talking about election coming up, but I thought it was every 4 yrs. Another that I get confused about is that the house right now are republicans. Do you think Trump will finish his term and maybe a second. Don't you think if anything  happens to Trump Pence who I like will take over. Do people ion usa really like the democrats more theyu can see would have voted clinton in. So you can see where confusion comes in. lol

The election coming up is the Senate and House elections....be sure to vote! Find out who is running for Senator and House representative in your district and vote.

We are concerned about violence against Christians in our church that many of us started arming ourselves when we attend.     We have armed guards at locked doors during the service.

That's creates an interesting debate, and I don't know what to make of it. I have a good friend that is locked and loaded. Owns a virtual arsenal, LoL, and asked me what I thought about making preparations like that.

For me, I tend to rely more on spiritual protection, i.e. the angels of God to watch out for me and mine, and if I am to suffer for the Lord's sake then He will warn me prophetically well in advance. But that's just me. I don't apply my own situation to everyone else, and I certainly don't hold it against anyone who wants to protect themselves by that means. I just share my own perspective on it, so they know there is more than one way to approach it.

[Daniel 11:36]

"I enjoyed the writeups about the dreams

 

Have you had any dreams?

If so give an example 

[Daniel 11:36]

That is good .... people who say they have related dreams are not telling the truth

People who say they have prophetic dreams are telling you a story

The Bible is complete

The Bible may be complete, but the gifts of the Holy Spirit are continuous.

Excellent! 

[Daniel 11:36]

There are no gifts of the holy spirit today

Like I said the Bible is complete .... believe this

1 Corinthians 12:4 There are diversities of gifts, but the same Spirit.

5 There are differences of ministries, but the same Lord.

6 And there are diversities of activities, but it is the same God who works all in all.

7 But the manifestation of the Spirit is given to each one for the profit of all:

8 for to one is given the word of wisdom through the Spirit, to another the word of knowledge through the same Spirit,

9 to another faith by the same Spirit...

 

Now, how could one believe you, if there is no longer faith given by the Holy Spirit? Not to mention wisdom and knowledge?

 

You teach a great and dangerous error.

 

Eph. 2:8 For by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God.

*[[2Ki 23:25]] KJV* And like unto him was there no king before him, that turned to the LORD with all his heart, and with all his soul, and with all his might, according to all the law of Moses; neither after him arose there any like him.

*[[2Ki 23:26]] KJV* Notwithstanding the LORD turned not from the fierceness of his great wrath, wherewith his anger was kindled against Judah, because of all the provocations that Manasseh had provoked him with al.

It wasn't the wickedness of Manesseh that brought the pronouncement of judgment against Judah (during the reign of Josiah), but it was the people's failure to follow king Josiah 's leadership. 

*[[2Ch 34:32]] KJV* And he CAUSED all that were present in Jerusalem and Benjamin to stand to it. And the inhabitants of Jerusalem did according to the covenant of God, the God of their fathers.

Josiah CAUSED everyone to "stand to it".  It was not a willful obedience that comes from a repentant heart.   He forced everyone to walk uprightly. 

This is an excellent Biblical parallel. I was telling my wife just yesterday that, unless they can start showing signs of true repentance, the American people are about to get what their hearts desire.

The trouble is, they don't yet know the price tag for rejecting God in favor of a religion that espouses "loving oneself more than God" (2 Timothy 3:1-2). It always ends badly, as is apparent from the historical illustration you are using.
