Hamburgers, I am aware you believe scripture is unreliable and not the word of God, but rather man, and must be adapted to our own needs as a 'reference' guide. So I am posting these verses for you.

Galatians 1:10-12

10 Am I now trying to win the approval of men, or of God? Or am I trying to please men? If I were still trying to please men, I would not be a servant of Christ.

11 I want you to know, brothers, that the gospel I preached is not something that man made up.

12 I did not receive it from any man, nor was I taught it; rather, I received it by revelation from Jesus Christ.

There is a reason you have a hard time accepting the word of God:

1 Corinthians 2:14 The man without the Spirit does not accept the things that come from God, for they are foolishness to him, and he cannot understand them, because they are spiritually discerned.

Just a quick question for Forrest and Oh.

Is life sacred?

You might argue that a fetus is not a person so it isnt murder. but by killing them arent you preventing a "sacred life"?

Since Hiliary's judgement about military action was the same as Bush's before the war, does that in your estimation disqualify her from being Commander in Chief? After all, you wouldn't vote for Bush because of his foreign policy decisions, so I would assume you would have the same problem with Hiliary if she were to get the Democrat nomination.

I haven't decided who I am going to vote for in the next election yet, if that is what you mean. I base my judgements on the candidates, not just the party. So I could very well vote republican in the next election.

To Ted:

You are forgetting one important difference: Babies in the womb are not blowing up people, hijacking jets and flying them into buildings, killing innocents on purpose in order to scare them into rule by terror, threatening to build nuclear weapons to unleash them on America and Israel, cutting off the heads of kidnapped journalists, and perpetuating lies to whip up the masses in a frenzy of bad religious intent.

So yes, some of us feel that some of these terrorists deserve what they get and understand that they have made choices to get to the point of being in the crosshairs.

First, I think you are confusing Iraq with the Al'Quida (or however you spell it). Iraq was not supporting terrorists, it had an oppresive government for sure, but don't associate Iraq with the terrorists who attacked at 9/11.

Second, my idea of justice isn't more violence. Capture and charge these people criminally in a court of law or something. Just because someone commits terrible acts doesn't mean we are suddenly allowed to do the same acts back to them. Keep them from commiting more hateful acts, but we don't need to kill them. Based upon my previous statement...

You actually equate the blood of terrorists to the blood of aborted babies?

Men should never decide who "deserves life" and who "deserves death", that is something that only God knows.

LadyC:

a big "if", huh? you mean history doesn't prove that adding troops help to bring stability to a floundering new government?

Of course troops help bring stability at first, but there comes a point where too many cooks ruin the soup. Also, if we have too many troops occupying, it has negative phychological effects to the residents. We want to make them feel secure and independant, not congested and under foreign rule. It is their country, after all.

Nebula:

Hamburger -

Do you believe abortion is ending the life of a soul?

Why does this question keep getting ignored? noidea.gif

Because the original topic was about a bill, not about one's stance on abortion. You can be against abortion and the bill at the same time. I didn't (and still don't) think my personal feelings are required. Of course this topic has been hijacked to high heaven at this point :emot-hug:

I am curious though, what would you do if I said I no, and what would you do if I said yes?

Ted:

Fair enough, but you are forgetting yet another fact: The UN has no Army!

Yep, in order for them to enforce their measly little weak resolutions, they have to find countries which agree to go out and do the dirty work. Usually, it that job falls on to the shoulders of a US-led coalition of forces, just like we saw in 2001 in Afghanistan, and then in 2003 in Iraq.

Seeing as how the UN has no Army of it's own, and we happen to foot the bill on almost every UN action, you would figure they would at least support the very vote to give us the authorization to do their dirty work, huh?

Imagine that. rolleyes.gif

You would figure they would have supported our authorization to do their dirty work if they wanted us to do their dirty work, yes. The fact that they didn't give us authorization lends me to believe they didn't support it. But I know that's just crazy talk! :emot-highfive:

Then you think abortion is wrong?

Could it be you are just afraid to say you are for abortion?

And I repost my other post

In most cases, yes.

i suggested you get off the fence hamburger. you make yourself look awfully foolish talking from both sides of your mouth. you won't stand up and oppose abortion (and justify it by saying you won't reveal your position, but by not opposing what is WRONG you ARE revealing where you stand) and THEN you say only God should decide who lives and who dies.

i guess all women who decide to kill their children are gods.

Posted

oh, and again talking from both sides of your mouth. you first said it's a big "if" that more troops can bring stability, and then you admit that yes, they'd bring more stability but only for a period of time.

well we're still in that period.

in MOST cases? didn't you JUST FINISH saying that men should never decide who deserves life or death? WHO exactly do you think authorizes those few cases of abortion that you DON'T think are wrong.... God? or man?

    • You are coming up higher in this season – above the assignments of character assassination and verbal arrows sent to manage you, contain you, and derail your purpose. Where you have had your dreams and sleep robbed, as well as your peace and clarity robbed – leaving you feeling foggy, confused, and heavy – God is, right now, bringing freedom back -- now you will clearly see the smoke and mirrors that were set to distract you and you will disengage.

      Right now God is declaring a "no access zone" around you, and your enemies will no longer have any entry point into your life. Oil is being poured over you to restore the years that the locust ate and give you back your passion. This is where you will feel a fresh roar begin to erupt from your inner being, and a call to leave the trenches behind and begin your odyssey in your Christ calling moving you to bear fruit that remains as you minister to and disciple others into their Christ identity.

      This is where you leave the trenches and scale the mountain to fight from a different place, from victory, from peace, and from rest. Now watch as God leads you up higher above all the noise, above all the chaos, and shows you where you have been seated all along with Him in heavenly places where you are UNTOUCHABLE. This is where you leave the soul fight, and the mind battle, and learn to fight differently.

      You will know how to live like an eagle and lead others to the same place of safety and protection that God led you to, which broke you out of the silent prison you were in. Put your war boots on and get ready to fight back! Refuse to lay down -- get out of bed and rebuke what is coming at you. Remember where you are seated and live from that place.

      Acts 1:8 - “But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you, and you will be my witnesses … to the end of the earth.”

    • George Whitten, the visionary behind Worthy Ministries and Worthy News, explores the timing of the Simchat Torah War in Israel. Is this a water-breaking moment? Does the timing of the conflict on October 7 with Hamas signify something more significant on the horizon?

    • Understanding the Enemy!

      I thought I write about the flip side of a topic, and how to recognize the attempts of the enemy to destroy lives and how you can walk in His victory!

      For the Apostle Paul taught us not to be ignorant of enemy's tactics and strategies.

      2 Corinthians 2:112  Lest Satan should get an advantage of us: for we are not ignorant of his devices. 

      So often, we can learn lessons by learning and playing "devil's" advocate.  When we read this passage,

      Mar 3:26  And if Satan rise up against himself, and be divided, he cannot stand, but hath an end. 
      Mar 3:27  No man can enter into a strong man's house, and spoil his goods, except he will first bind the strongman; and then he will spoil his house. 

      Here we learn a lesson that in order to plunder one's house you must first BIND up the strongman.  While we realize in this particular passage this is referring to God binding up the strongman (Satan) and this is how Satan's house is plundered.  But if you carefully analyze the enemy -- you realize that he uses the same tactics on us!  Your house cannot be plundered -- unless you are first bound.   And then Satan can plunder your house!

    • Daniel: Pictures of the Resurrection, Part 3

    • Abraham and Issac: Pictures of the Resurrection, Part 2
      Shalom everyone,

      As we continue this series the next obvious sign of the resurrection in the Old Testament is the sign of Isaac and Abraham.

      Gen 22:1  After these things God tested Abraham and said to him, "Abraham!" And he said, "Here I am."
      Gen 22:2  He said, "Take your son, your only son Isaac, whom you love, and go to the land of Moriah, and offer him there as a burnt offering on one of the mountains of which I shall tell you."

      So God "tests" Abraham and as a perfect picture of the coming sacrifice of God's only begotten Son (Yeshua - Jesus) God instructs Issac to go and sacrifice his son, Issac.  Where does he say to offer him?  On Moriah -- the exact location of the Temple Mount.
