Jesus was talking about the king, Not a stupid moron... You don't get this??? WOW...
Read those items in my www.box.com and you will become wiser.

I sent these to a good friend of mine because we have talked about political and current Christianity problems a lot:
Man's # 1 Sickness - Hatred

Why is there so much hatred in the world? Does God condone hatred? These two questions, I am sure, have stimulated much thought. Hatred has caused me a lot of grief especially when I realize it is based on selfishness and assumption of truth. The arguing, the misunderstanding, and/or the fighting, which branch out from hatred, seem so childish or immature. The original sin of Adam and Eve was not hatred, but directly involved was selfishness and assumption of truth. And later on, Cain hated Abel due to selfishness and assumption of truth. Also, the Old Testament and the secular accounts of history are full of crime, unethical business, and wars based on selfishness and assumption of truth. But where hatred grieves me the most is in and between families and churches, usually over minor issues. Now it is easy to point to the Bible prophecies about people' s behavior and say, “oh we are just in the Last Days”. It is also easy to say, “We should hate what God hates and forget about those doomed sinners.” But many of us are very sensitive and concerned, especially in regards to our families and former friends. We need fundamental, Bible-believing friends, families, and/or churches to encourage and stand with us in relation to Luke 6:22-23, Matthew 5:43-48, and John 15:10-27. Please take time to read those passages of God's Word. Then become ready to constantly and sincerely encourage true Christian believers because every one of them is being hated in some way. The only cure or solution to hatred is God's compassionate love, which He wants to give to us forever.
Attitude
(by Charles Swindoll)

The longer I live, the more I realize the importance of attitude on life. Attitude, to me, is more important than facts. It is more important than the past, than education, than money, than circumstances, than failures, than successes, than what other people think or say or do. It is important than appearance, giftedness, or skill. It will make or break a company... a church... a home.
The remarkable thing is we have a choice every day regarding the attitude we will embrace each day. We cannot change our past... we cannot change the fact that people will act in a certain way. We cannot change the inevitable. The only thing we can do is play on the one string we have, and that is our attitude.
I am convinced that life is 10% what happens to me and 90 how I react to it. And so it is with you. We are in charge of our attitudes.

Seven Types of Anger
(by Bill Stevenson)

1.) One is verbal and physical abuse and is usually put-up with as if it were normal.
2.) One is because of very selfish reasons and usually is done to hurt or stop a relationship. It can and usually has violent results.
3.) One is religious or prejudicial for purposes of influencing others to stop certain relationships with certain types of people.
4.) One is just childish immaturity (no age limit) because one doesn't get what they want.
5.) One is due to self discouragement, usually because of too high expectations.
6.) One usually results from frustration due to impatience, misunderstandings, untruthfulness, or lack of cooperation, usually with a spouse. It will never result in physical violence because of agapè (God's special love defined in 1 Corinthians 13).
7.) One is the just or righteous reaction against what displeases God.

Note: Anger of any type temporarily stops peace, happiness, fun, and joy. A true Christian should be trying to eliminate the first six types of anger and only have the seventh one. “Where there is a will, there is a way.”

and according to Jesus Christ you are committing murder against President Trump. Have you ever hear the saying "He who judges, judges himself." I am not going to argue with you anymore. I will obey 2 Timothy 3:5. Bye.

Name one thing that our party is radical about. We love America the way it is. And has been for the last 7 decades... As most Americans. And Putin owns Trump!!! LOL!!!

You have got to be kidding. Your party has gone so far to the left that JFK would be considered a conservative member of the GOP in today's world. You are either blind to such actions your leaders are performing or you have TDS so deep that you can't see. Putin owns Clinton perhaps with your lying, conniving, Clinton Foundation criminal activities.

There are none so blind as those who cannot see....facts.

De-regulations Trump


First, 14 Obama rules that had been finalized were eliminated via the Congressional Review Act, in individual bills signed by Trump.

Second, over 1,500 Obama rules in the pipeline but not finalized were withdrawn or delayed.

Third, a friendlier attitude toward streamlining permitting for bridge, pipeline, transportation, telecommunications and other infrastructure is apparent and being interpreted as a more open season for certain infrastructure planning.

Fourth, Trump agencies have abstained from issuing significant new rules in large part.

And fifth, to the extent possible within congressional requirements that rules be issued, Trump required executive (not independent) agencies to eliminate at least two rules for every one issued. So far, the administration claims a 22-1 ratio instead, having dispensed with 67 rules while adding only three "significant" ones.

This rollback job will become harder in 2018 as low-hanging, quick-to-rid regulations are exhausted. "Fatter" rules like the Clean Power Plan" and the Waters of the United States rule for example are already in the administration's sights and being reformed, but will require lengthy formal notice-and-comment procedures, and face legal challenges. Such big ones couldn't be fully dealt with by year-end 2017.

Sixth, Trump has done more than any president apart from the second George Bush to address "guidance documents" and other agency alleged sub-regulatory decrees that nonetheless can have real regulatory effect. Trump's executive orders and directives encompass not just rules, but such guidance also. There is more that needs doing here in 2018 and 2019.

One might say developments outside the scope of 2-for-1, such as the Federal Communications Commission's rollback of the net neutrality rule (it's an independent agency not subject to the 2-for-1 order), and Trump's signals regarding relaxation of permitting in transportation, bridges, pipelines and 5G telecom infrastructure --wielded even more impact. Note the Commerce Department's Permit Streamlining Action Plan, for example.

Congress ultimately will need to act as the 2-for-1 campaign begins to bump up against, natural, even constitutional limits. To date, there is little inclination on the part of Democrats to collaborate with him. Perhaps as a bestselling negotiator, Trump may be able to come up with ways to share credit with Democrats for reforms -- like even Trump's own in/out program -- that in fact have bipartisan, not solely Republican, pedigree. Small business relief and pressure from governors are sometimes the impetus to get things moving.

what regulation did trump get rid of that was killing jobs?

regulations are rules that are put in place that keep the corporate elite, like trump, from taking everything. "regulations are the enemy" is the garbage that we got from reagan back in the 80s, and what did it lead to, the dismantling of the unions, manufacturing, and boosted banking leverage. in other words less than one percent benefited from deregulation and 99 percent suffer.

According to all Trump haters, nothing that this president does will ever qualify for good news for the American people. As for unions, they are a catalyst for jumping out of a frying pan and into the fire.

TO LET GO TAKES LOVE-- An Introspection Tool After “Heart-break”


Note: After each statement, type a response in relation to each individual you want to go on from or/and forgive.


To "let go" does not mean to stop caring,
but it means that I can't do it for someone else.

To "let go" is not to cut myself off,
but it is the realization that I can't control another.

To "let go" is not to enable,
but to allow learning from natural consequences.

To "let go" is to admit powerlessness,
which means the outcome is not in my hands.

To "let go" is not to try to change or blame another,
but to make the most of myself.

To "let go" is not to care for,
but to care about.

To "let go" is not to fix,
but to be supportive.

To "let go" is not to judge,
but to allow another to be a human being.

To "let go" is not to be in the middle arranging all the outcomes,
but to allow others to effect their own destinies.

To "let go" is not to be protective,
but to permit another to face reality.

To "let go" is not to deny,
but to accept.

To "let go" is not to nag, scold, or argue,
but instead to search out my own shortcomings and to correct them.

To "let go" is not to adjust everything to my desires,
but to take each day as it comes, and to cherish myself in it.

To "let go" is not to criticize and regulate anybody,
but to try to become what I dream I can be.

To "let go" is not to regret the past,
but to grow and to live for the future.

To "let go" is to fear less and to love more

- Adapted from Can Christians Love Too Much?, by Dr. Margaret J. Rinck

what do these even mean? you click on a link and it takes you to a government site that gives you a long filibuster statement but no simple answer. how about a simple example?
a simple example would b something such as Enron and the Bush administration cut financial regulation allowing banks to increase their levrage which in turn lead them to make much more risky investments with honest working peoples retirement money.

with respect you never gave an answer. a political answer doesnt count. you know what a political answer is right, its asking your boss for a raise and he gives you something like "it is what it is" .
i have done plenty of research, did you read anything i read, not likely. have you done any research, doesnt sound like it. sounds like you watch fox news and buy into whatever they tell you.
back to the "regulations", when you hear trump cut regulations it could mean anything being as regulations means rules. so which rules did he get rid of? honest working men usually are not out on a mission to get around rules anyway, the rich are the ones always looking to bend rules and when you look at the history of these guys, when rules get tossed aside its always people like trump and the rich elite that benefit from it.
not sure why u think im a liberal, Clinton is from my home state, i shook his hand when i was a teen paging in the house for my local 4h club, and i will be the first to tell you Clinton is a lying slimeball. GOP/DNC, two masks same monster. trump is saying the same thing all the rest have said for many years, wake up.

No, we watch good ol' american television news. You know, the news that brought us through world war 2 . the Vietnam war. You know the news that the World relied on. I can't believe that the FBI and CIA allowed Trump to speak to Putin in private. Twice... Has He truly been working for Russia???
