When people fear man and want to be seen to be one of the crowd is that not a form or worship? There were some folks in the old testament that wanted to bow the knee in man's temple's as well as in the temple of God. That was frowned upon by God. Daniel refused to bow the knee before the king's idol, but he did pray in his window and was seen bowing to God.

You were born with racism. Accept it"... Yet.. didn't you just loot that womans store? She was black. I can hear her now "I thought black lifes matter? I'm black.. why did you do this to my store? I'm black. Why not just chock me now?" <--that was real. First part.. made up. Oh.. this is nothing to what has happened just over one week. BLM group is not of God.. does deserve anything. How many times do we have to watch others look into that group.. what they said.. really stand for..anyway. Right now in some schools they are teaching this racism is born into people. Just not black people..they say. No you can be white black yellow red and be just as racist as any one. There are videos not being show on 6 other networks. Where black people demand you bow.. and say sorry.. and say you are white privilege. Did we not see the little 5+ year old girl where mom but a sign on her saying SHES WHITE PRIVILEGE. I watched them make people take a knee. Not asked nicely. Watched BLM get very upset as people were taking down their grefiti that they put on the walls. So...yeah.. no respect to that group. I will help and defend anyone of any color that is being mistreated.  Edited June 7, 2020 by TheBlade 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phillipians 2:[5] Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus: [6] Who, being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God: [7] But made himself of no reputation, and took upon him the form of a servant, and was made in the likeness of men: [8] And being found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself, and became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross. [9] Wherefore God also hath highly exalted him, and given him a name which is above every name: [10] That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth; [11] And that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.

I don't quite understand this bowing the knee at these protests.... don't understand what it actually means.  I know the football player did it when he didn't want to stand for our National Anthem.  Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is my honest opinion, that Christians should not be involved in any protests that involve violence or looting. If the current protests were entirely peaceful, then I wouldn't mind it so much. But these protests are no longer about Floyd or injustice, they are in fact in favor of injustice. https://www.foxla.com/video/689995 These are people just trying to steal and destroy.  Christian have no business being involved in that. https://biblehub.com/ecclesiastes/8-3.htm The Bible warns us "Do not stand up for a bad cause".

They have a large following of the young men and they are growing .  They may be playing a huge role in all this mayhem that is taking place.  Check out the youtube video and see it happening long before all this riot ect. By the way, I should state that these events are demonic in nature and men are just the placeholder for the unclean spirits wrecking havoc.  This is my personal take as from my experience and witness of things spiritual. It's real folks, real.  1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Takin' a knee has been a sign of respect and submission for a long time. Do I think folks these bow to a lot...yep, sure do. I believe these days it is up to a man/woman to use their own judgement based on morals. It will be God makin' the final decision in the end. hope this makes sense to ya.  Just my two bits, JJ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
