None of this is of general Christian interest. It belongs in the U.S. Politics forum. Quite a few members here aren't American or, if we are, we couldn't possibly care less about subject matter like this. Thanks.

 

Actually it is of general interest around the world when someone claims to be ruling them. It is of some serious Biblical interest as individuals think upon the many little antichrists among us even now.

It surpasses American politics and is part of the battle  at hand where "we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this age, against spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places."

It is good to see where such signs fit in the time of the signs.

Joe O’Biden does not have the facilities or comprehension to run anything, much less our nation; he has some form of dementia.

Suppose O’Biden is not running the country; who is? I highly suspect O’Biden will be replaced by or at the National Democratic Convention.

Obama and O'biden, were on bicycles a-ridin'.

They pedaled here and cycled there, but ended up collidin'.

Sharing the Gospel to a nation under judgement and its leader is permissible! :)

Even command-able

 

I would say it (sharing good news) is of paramount importance, and a responsibility to all of us as Ambassadors of Christ!
 

Ever get a sticker on your pants and shake it off someplace else further away?  You just sowed that seed.
                           (We sow many varieties of seed unknowingly, not all plants/trees etc)
Most all plants are propagated by seed or spores, or grafting (like grafting a vine branch... )

Natures sowing methods are wind, water, animals, explosion and fire etc. Think tumble weed, stickers, rain, etc.
These methods were created by God the creator, his plan to spread and populate the earth with plants/trees etc.
However seeds/spores have to end up in a suitable soil that allows them to germinate. Not all soil is good.

Each plant tree etc  has a purpose to grow as God ordained, though we wonder at some, crab grass and stickers (tares)
Tares are weeds that resemble young wheat. They are identified after they grow some and mature.

What about Christian believers. Do they propagate through their parents? Biology. DNA? Ancestry?
That doesn't work as some believers have lost parents and vice versa. Where do they come from?

What about the seeds of the gospel? How does the good news seeds get propagated?
Wind, water, animals, etc won't work. What/how did God make it possible to sow the good news seed?

The sowers of the seed.             "How can they hear unless someone....."

In His word tells us how. Salvation is by grace(God supplied) through faith(God supplied in the word)
God provides the seed, the word. Thy word have I hid in my heart. Share it, sow it, spread it, propagate it.
The seeds of truth are sown by believers, God's ambassadors on earth, into the soil, good or not good.
However; the seed will only grow in good suitable soil. Those that have ears to hear. His sheep hear his voice.

If more tares are sown today, and less wheat sown, what happens? 
God says we get what we sow.             We do not receive what we don't sow.  Are we sowing the word to whosoever will?
                                                                                                             
                                'The harvest is plentiful, but the laborers are few;
           therefore pray earnestly to the Lord of the harvest to send out laborers into his harvest.

                                        "He that winneth souls is wise!"

             "As it is written: “How beautiful are the feet of those who bring good news!”
 

 

Thanks Adrien/Neighbor...

Very real possibilities, and I have an issue with both that runs beyond any political issues I may have. The founding fathers, who admittedly were by no means perfect, fled from a nation of hereditary positions, a noble class, and so on. When they founded a new government they avoided those things. Yet in allowing spouses and other immediate family members to run for the highest political office it's one of several ways America has been moving right back to that very thing.

What is kind of interesting are the threats of non support by the real rulers of this world. They are  figuratively coming out of the woodwork. Their threats that no money will be sent to the Democrat pacs by these behind the scenes, international in scope, movers and shakers, including the Soros groups are coming to light.

That is amazing to me, the roaches are risking the light to provoke the world into obedience to their will.  Their long term and loyal  bag man  is not so necessary to them as the Biden gang had thought.

This is much like a old time tv presentation of how the mafia works around the world. It should be of interest, serious interest, to those up close and personal that are living in much of all of Europe, as this bagman for previously well hidden forces of this world has claimed that he is leading "the advance by NATO" against Putin (Russia).

I am sure he did not mean to reveal that this is an advance by the so called west against Russia, but I can see where the brutal leader of Russia and his many peoples  have real fear of that advance, as they have been invaded seven times at great loss of lives to them, and three times through the Ukraine. Seems the world is very close to a conflict that could in an instant reduce it's human population by 1/3.  

I think that might be of Biblical interest, one that could and should bring a decision about Jesus to many a person. 

What is it we fight against? ..." For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this age, against spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places." This is a spiritual battle, one  being fought out on earth's terrain. Victory is perhaps not to be found in the turf gained, nor defeat in the turf lost, but instead in how many turn about to Jesus as Lord God and savior before it is too late to do so for many hundreds of thousands and maybe millions of souls.

Maranatha!

I recently posted this in another thread, and I think it bears reposting because of its historical accuracy and American history. America has drunk the Jim Jones Kool-Aid, committing suicide. What number are we on the list below?

The Cycle of Nations:

(1) From bondage to spiritual faith.

(2) From spiritual faith to great courage.

(3) From courage to liberty.

(4) From liberty to abundance.

(5) From abundance to selfishness.

(6) From selfishness to complacency.

(7) From complacency to apathy.

(8) From apathy to dependency.

(9) From dependency back again into bondage.

--Sir Alex Fraser Tyler, A Scottish jurist, and historian

Ecclesiastes 1:9 The thing that hath been, it is that which shall be; and that which is done is that which shall be done: and there is no new thing under the sun.

The above verse can be interpreted in several ways. I believe one of them is that history repeats itself; it is cyclic. Because of sin, human nature is predictable apart from God and His intervention.
