I agree I think God's Judgement is coming to America what a sad time for this country but there are some teachers & prophets who are saying that another great awakening is coming

Judgement will come when Christ returns. The world has always been full of sin, and will be until the Jesus returns.

You still pitching a fit Tigger cause you can't get your way? 

If you call pitching a fit a cry for others to pray, for others to stand for the Lord, for others to stand for the Light, for others to stand for our freedoms (God given), If it is pitching a fit to cry with an aching heart as I see so much heartache as I have seen businesses close, increases in suicides, family members denied the right to see their loved ones in hospitals as they pass away. Friends and neighbors denied the freedom to go to funerals to pay respects. If it is pitching a fit to cry when simple freedoms of playing in a park with your little child causes you to be arrested. If declaring that in America, we should have the right to assemble, the right to worship as we see fit, if that is pitching a fit.... then so be it. A fit I will pitch.  ?

God given freedoms? Are you sure they are God given and not man given? The freedom God gave us was the freedom to free us from death, sin.

Wise and practical not to worship the Lord in united light?  Yep, we definitely disagree. I feel those that want to stay home, then do so. But quit taking the freedoms away from those who do not want to hide in their homes.

I'm talking about a minister who is obviously breaking the law placed before him by a Superior Court Judge, brother. You think that makes a good witness before a world full of unbelievers? Then yes, we do disagree. And two more words I can think of right now would be this, "Oy Vey".

With my bad eyes  for a long time I thought the oy vey reaction said oh very. 

But I never used it because I didn't know oh very what? 

Oh very good, bad, stupid, wonderful????????

        

Not a problem, brother. Mine are pretty old here as well. I could really use an updated prescription on my lenses. Not a soon to be expected thing. It will cost me about $300 for a set which includes a discount.

Wonder what sins caused the 1918 Spanish Flu pandemic? 

They say 20-50 million died from the Spanish Flu (that btw did not originate in Spain). Some estimates are higher. WWI was responsible for 16 million deaths. I am sure God had something to do with it. He allows evil for a purpose, whether it results in sickness and death or war. Sin is always in there somewhere. Judgment comes in many forms, throughout our lives and at death.

Well, not exactly, Ronald. While He does allow as you've stated, the Lord is not the creator of all things evil. Never was nor will be. It doesn't quite match up with scripture.

These are unusual times, not just for us Americans but everywhere. Or so the news says, I don't know I don't live anywhere else so I cannot speak for other countries. But anyway, I think we Americans are very split on this is because we haven't had to deal with anything like this. Some say not since WW2 and perhaps that is so but the difference is the eras. Back then, society wasn't as selfish as it is now. It's all me me me, mine mine mine, now now now.....etc. Back then, our country did it's duty. During the Great Depression, everyone did what needed to be done. During WW2, men enlisted to do their duty as asked by our government, women stayed up and kept the domestic life going. Society managed until the war was concluded . The U.S was a lot more Christian I think back then compared to now. Nowadays, Americans want to protest if they can't get a $100 pair of sneakers, $1000 phone, or a brand new anything. This selfishness and the have the cake and eat it too attitude has made us not know how to handle all of these restrictions. I compare it to a spoiled teen who never got told no nor was disciplined suddenly waking up in a prison. 

I think there are many things going on at once. The virus is real and it makes a lot of people sick and makes a few die. The leaders and experts don't know what to do so we are going by trial and error. There are those in power be it government or corporate that are willing to take advantage of this situation by gaining more power and pushing their agendas through.  The media is no longer able to be trusted anymore as they are more about siding with political agendas than objective reporting. On the flip side, we have the ones trying to push back. It's the regular people like us that are , as usual, caught in the middle of this which only turns us against each other while they gain more power and wealth. I think the way it's being handled has proven that either the U.S and everyone else model vs the Sweden model that regardless of tight or loose restrictions people that are  vulnerable are going to get it. At this point, no one is 100% sure which is the better way and only time will show if one is better than the other or if there is no difference. 

I think there are things at play behind the scenes right now. But I think most are missing the big picture. It's not about countries, capitalism vs socialism, USA vs Everyone, Republican vs Democrat, Flat earth vs Round earth (couldn't help it lol), corrupt members in power vs members in power that are opposing the corrupt. No, it is God vs the devil. I do think God wanted to remind us all who is in charge and try to get people back to him but at the same time I think the devil is having his fun puppet mastering the corrupt into seducing them with more power into enslaving mankind into dividing us.  Perhaps I am considered a loon for thinking this but this is a Christian site.  I come to this conclusion because for a very long time we have been seeing a rise in removing God from everything from buildings, schools, and even stories of missionaries being murdered and so on. I think societies and nations perhaps have been influenced for a long time and now that it's reaching a peak where God has decided that enough is enough. This is all just the beginning. Sorry if my rant offends but I think we are focusing too much on the borderlines than the owner of the the ground we stand on and the atoms that make us up. End of rant.

I wish everyone a good night, I love you all my brothers and sisters, and God Bless you all!

Maybe you aren't familiar with this one:

"I form the light, and create darkness: I make peace, and create evil: I the LORD do all these things." Isaiah 45:7

Seems interesting that is the only thing you address in this post. When the Lord God created the mankind He established the Sabbath and his laws. If we are not allowed to worship and assemble isn't that in violation to the command of the Lord?  The Lord created man with freedom of will which means that man has been free to obey or to sin, but when they violate the ways of the Lord there are consequences. Slavery is an example. Let me ask you LadyKay is slavery established by God or was freedom? Are you a proponent of slavery? If not, why not? Do you think man has the God given right to be free?
