Marching in the streets for what?
I would say it has to do something with safeguarding truth, somehow.

What is marching in the street protesting injustice and immorality? Is that a Christian principle the Lord taught?
...considering that the fall in Eden was initiated by letting the lie creep in.

No, our current ungodly administration has set that precedent in opposition to Christianity. So, again, not to answer in kind is complacent and irresponsible!

Having a passion for Jesus is great, but like any fire, if left unattended, will die out.

Which means practice temperance, do not be quick to retaliate one on one.

We're talking about governance "within" a predominantly Christian society here. Are you not your brother's keeper?

Fine, go march in the street if you feel you must. You said you believe "Christians" should be marching in the streets. I'm saying there's another side to this and just because you say it's the duty and obligation for Christians to get on their high horse and protest that doesn't make it so.

There's a reason the Lord told us not to worry and that's because there will never be an end of things in the world to worry about. Christians don't belong to this world and it's not our job to see that everything is set right.

If taking to the streets and proclaiming God's Truth is my "high horse" then so be it... Being in this world but not of it is a poor excuse for sloth.

The west wants to start a nuclear holocaust! Because if we put ground troops in Ukraine, or shoot down Russian aircraft, that's what will happen! We have turned into a society of idiots. And someone will have a problem with what I'm saying! SMH

The west, America..., wants leadership that would have stopped this mess before it even began! If your only deterrent is Bernie O'Biden and the squad, then why not start WWIII?

Oh well, there's nothing I can do about it. It might not turn out bad. Now, are you pre-trib or post-trib?

If I was Russia, I'd be preparing for a war with NATO. NATO wants a war. From chaos comes order...the new world order.
We are the bad guys.

Where to you think this battle is? "For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places. "

What if
"What do you thank would happen to me if I went into the church next Sunday and started turning thing over taking a whip to people and telling them to quit destroying Gods house stop turning it into a plce of false worship"

So now your God? Well who was Christ? :) you are not and as God said in Samuel He is not like man that only sees the flesh He sees the heart. Its not what are others doing what are you doing? There is over 30 million Churches in this world and many every day are praying for hours again what are we doing? Yeah they show up before the sun comes up praying till the sun goes down. Like the song playing "SOUL ON FIRE".

I know where the battle begins...it begins with me!
I think they have us by the short and curlies.
Unless what Soulmateleft puts forth comes to pass, we...are...screwed!
I've been warning people about buying Chinese goods (my problem is with the communists), since the '70s...
We will own nothing and we will like it (if we know what's good for us).
"I searched for a man among them to repair the wall and stand in the gap before Me on behalf of the land, so that I should not destroy it. But I found no one." - Ezekiel 22:30
" I have heard all about you, LORD. I am filled with awe by your amazing works. In this time of our deep need, help us again as you did in years gone by. And in your anger, remember your mercy." - Habakkuk 3:2

They don't care about the Ukrainians. The MSM seems concerned. George Soros seems concerned. The WEF seems concerned.
We are so concerned that we will fight to the last Ukrainian.

Of course, we are against communism. We are against the oppression of the many by the few.
The point (and I think I am agreeing with Oblio) is that the NWO, the UN and NATO are trying to establish their own form of communism and Putin is very much against the NWO. Putin is fighting for his own survival, pathetic as it may be.
The NWO is not a righteous solution to the world's problems. Unfortunately, there are few alternatives.
The USA represented a righteous endeavor at governance. It has fallen into the trap of the occult.


It is fascinating to watch how God accomplishes his will. Who can stand against the Word of God?
Keep the Faith. Fight the good fight. Love your fellow man. Comfort those in need. Share the Gospel with them.
