Boobies can be a big problem also.
Galatians 5:19-21 King James Version (KJV)

19 Now the works of the flesh are manifest, which are these; Adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lasciviousness,

20 Idolatry, witchcraft, hatred, variance, emulations, wrath, strife, seditions, heresies,

21 Envyings, murders, drunkenness, revellings, and such like: of the which I tell you before, as I have also told you in time past, that they which do such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God.


Indeed! The Citizens of the World identify themselves as Sexual Objects, because being such objects in this Kingdom they obtain and maintain Religious and Monetary Value. There is also a saying that in this Satanic World "Marriage is Legal Prostitution". They are only asserting and celebrating their Natural Identity.

Except that America's history and founding is grounded in Christian principles and with the Creator named even in our founding documents. While the "Ivy League" of Colleges and Universities were started by Christians.

Sex isn't America's religion. Sin may be rampant in the world today. That does not mean God has been replaced by phallus and sex idolatry.
Matthew 5:39 King James Version (KJV)

39 But I say unto you, That ye resist not evil: but whosoever shall smite thee on thy right cheek, turn to him the other also.



That's Pure Fantasy. A Truly Christian Nation has never existed anywhere at anytime. Every Nation in history for over 2,000 years has made a rational calculation, that if they turn the other cheek and offer the other also, they would soon cease to be a Nation.

Apparently, the Founding Fathers, were Diest.

deism

noun

1. belief in the existence of a God on the evidence of reason and nature only, with rejection of supernatural revelation (distinguished from theism).

Deism

Deism (/ˈdiːɪzəm/ DEE-iz-əm [1][2] or /ˈdeɪ.ɪzəm/ DAY-iz-əm; derived from Latin "deus" meaning "god") is the philosophical position that rejects revelation as a source of religious knowledge and asserts that reason and observation of the natural world are sufficient to establish the existence of a Supreme Being or creator of the universe.

Some. Not all. But at the same time, they all derived their principles of governance from the Bible (directly or indirectly). Deism does not reject God, but simply indicates that God is not involved in the affairs of men after creation.

The just come to the Lord and live by FAITH. Without faith it is impossible to please God. Natural reason and evidence is not faith. Faith is based upon the unseen and intangible...

Hebrews 11
11:1 Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.
11:2 For by it the elders obtained a good report.
11:3 Through faith we understand that the worlds were framed by the word of God, so that things which are seen were not made of things which do appear.
11:6 But without faith [it is] impossible to please [him]: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and [that] he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him.

Let's make things clearer for the readers, so that there is no misunderstanding. United States was founded by Satanic Illuminati Freemasons and is and always has been a Devil's Paradise. Elohim/God is in total control of this Satan's/Devil's Paradise. Is United States a British Colony?


Illuminati

The Illuminati[1] (plural of Latin illuminatus, "enlightened") is a name given to several groups, both real and fictitious. Historically, the name usually refers to the Bavarian Illuminati, an Enlightenment-era secret society founded on 1 May 1776. The society's goals were to oppose superstition, obscurantism, religious influence over public life, and abuses of state power.

1776 in the United States

Events from the year 1776 in the United States. This year is celebrated in the United States as the official beginning of the nation, with the Declaration of Independence issued on July 4.

As has been said already, not all the founders were Deists.
And if any government of any nation followed this rule: But I say unto you, That ye resist not evil: but whosoever shall smite thee on thy right cheek, turn to him the other also, they would cease to be a free nation. Because their enemies that would take advantage of the passivity and failure to respond to aggression against a people, would believe the government of the people did not care for them, or the potential to be conquered by an enemy.

I'd suggest you research the founding of America after you maybe realize I did not say America is a Christian nation.

I don't think we should attempt to read God's mind when it comes to such detail. It would have been better to just say "it is because of sin" and leave it at that.

seems to me some folks enjoy speaking of certain things and in this case sex in particular

we have very informed posts, we have posts that just want to agree that sex is the biggest no no of all and we have a certain poster who just had to post an illustrative picture of, apparently, something that he had to look for to post

well let's be clear you have apparently found something with which to rail against the United States

coming from the land of witches, druids and creators of many pagan religions, I should think you might take care of your little corner of the world

people who rail against the US have an agenda

are you still angry the US declared independence from momma England?

you appear to be more interested in conspiracies than facts, which of course, is the playground of the devil with no uncertainty

Yes, we know gluttony is a sin, but ask any Christian what is gluttony. I bet you'll get a reply like, "you know those people who are so big they have to cut down the wall to get them out, that's gluttony." No pastor in his right mind would preach on food addiction as being a sin just before the congregation goes to chow down at their favorite restaurant. I don't smoke, I certainly don't think it's a good thing to do, but I don't know as I'd label it as sin. I don't drink, I don't agree with drinking, but I don't think a person who has a drink has sinned. Now if you drink till you are buzzed, I believe that to be wrong. Just saying, if one thing is a sin we need to call everything out, gossip, food addiction, alcohol etc. and preach on those things too.

well Kayla, and I am not taking sides here but just in reference to your post above, some people could really stand to hear some preaching on eating too much and yes food can become an addiction, or too much alcohol but absolutely preaching against gossip and putting a stop to it would go a long long way to creating a far more Christian atmosphere in church than what most seem to have now

and again, just responding to your post and not taking sides with anyone

gossip, IMO, is one of the main sins of Christians and I think one of the reasons Christians do not get their prayers answered

I have to get signing off here for the moment, but just wanted to post this before I forget to come back and do so later......
while skimming through this thread there is one thing that keeps coming to mind.......

Ecclesiastes 1:9...…...
(just gonna leave it at that for now..... if I think about coming back to expand, I will.....)

What has been will be again,
what has been done will be done again;
there is nothing new under the sun. Ecc 1:9

exactly and I thought the same. possibly some here are ignorant of the practices of the nations we read of in the OT...and the temple prostitutes etc and for that matter, the discoveries of archaeology that reveal an ancient world steeped in ungodly sexual practices

all the rivers run into the sea yet the sea is not full

Your assessment is not very accurate. We need to bring the truth to light to the best of our ability.

1. The Pilgrims -- Bible believing Christians -- came to America in the early 17th century.

2. The Puritans -- Bible believing Christians -- followed the Pilgrims but were not identical in their beliefs since they were Reformed or Calvinistic.

3. Then James I decided to establish British colonies along the eastern coast of America.

4. Then there was the French and British seven year war (1756-1763), which led to dissatisfaction with the British monarchy among the colonists.

5. This led to the Boston Tea Party (1773) followed by the First Continental Congress (1774).

6. Then there was war between the colonists and the British, which finally led to the American War of Independence (1775-1783) which led to the Declaration of Independence (1776).

7. The Constitution of the United States was signed on September 17, 1787. In its preamble it said: "We the People of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defense, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America."

No Christian can object to these principles. The motto "IN GOD WE TRUST" began to be used on US currency as early as 1865.

The church I grew up in had a couple that had a terrible habit of gossiping. No pastor wanted to deal with it because they were a couple that basically ran the church. She was an excellent cook and organizer and they were that "go to" couple. But they had lethal tongues and caused more hurt and drama in the church. They would invite people to church, get them attending church then turn on them and gossip. I don't know how much damage they did with their tongues. So sad because otherwise they would have been an asset to the church.

Unfortunately I too have seen and experienced “Busy Bodies” in the pews. Clicks can form and there can be that us against them mentality. This should not be occurring but it does. I for one am in favor of rebuking when these actions are apparent. With love of course which not always easy to do. Praise be to God for the Holy Spirit to guild our emotions.

According to our Teacher, nothng, nothing by entering into the boy corrupsts. However what is kept in the heart, if it is evil will produce evil. Smoking is not a sin, but the habit has its own punishment.

Even I am able to edit a Wikipedia entry to make it read as I wish.

No, America is not a British colony.
Hidden mysteries, and Millennium Report conspiracy sites aren't educational. You gain no points here thinking to throw ridiculous accusations against America and by proxy, American's here.

You are desperate for attention, which is sad. Find peace and you'll feel better about yourself and others. I promise. :)

yup

it seems to me that people with those 'letha tongues' are often helpful in other ways but they are not to be trusted

it's kind of funny

I don't know how people do not view that type of thing as 'not a sin'

and damage indeed is what those wagging tongues do

like scripture states: the tongue can set the world on fire

Or not ;)

Your stature is like a palm tree, And your breasts are like its clusters.

My beloved is to me a pouch of myrrh Which lies all night between my breasts.

I was a virgin, like a wall; now my breasts are like towers. When my lover looks at me, he is delighted with what he sees.
