Applying God's Word to Politics

[GWH]

Anyway, defining dispensations as different revelations, I see good reason to view from A&E until Moses as the era of general revelation, the area aware of the Torah until Jesus as the era of moral monotheism, the area aware of the NT until Christ's parousia
as the current era and from Judgment Day throughout eternity as the future era. The basis of other divisions is too parochial.

 

[Churchgoer]

Be careful now. Some whack jobs, like Mike Huckabee, have no problem with a nation like Israel taking the whole Middle East because of their misguided interpretations of God's promise to Abraham and his seed. Therefore, the homelands that are being bombed aren't really the homelands of the people living there, but the homeland of the Israelites instead. I wonder how these people sleep at night as innocents are pretty regularly wiped off of the face of the earth. Then again, I really don't wonder because I think I know what spirit is truly leading these people.

Heeeeeeeeere's Mikey!

Possible they are like Paul, before Paul was struck by light, by Jesus, Paul was a religious fanatic. Paul was putting Christians to jail and happy to participate stoning Stephen, all under the name of his god.

Yes, and we might be jealous of Paul experiencing a miracle that meant he could walk by sight, not faith.
I used to explain it by saying God needed Paul to establish the church, just as He needed Moses to establish Judaism,
so He performed unique miracles to motivate them.

However, because Paul the persecutor already had faith in the OT God as Truth (Deut. 13:10, 2Thes. 2:10),
the miracle served merely/mainly to reveal that Christ ALSO is Lord/the One God--in the physical/human dimension
(cf. God revealed to Moses in the burning bush), and that Paul's mission was to preach His Gospel to the Gentiles.

Paul realized that the miracle was unique and that other Truth-believers would need to walk by faith
in the Gospel that the miracle had revealed to him (2Cor. 5:7, Rom. 11:25, Eph. 3:2-9).

How do the U.S. Constitution and Scripture apply to the political issue of gender dysphoria (attempting to change genders)?

Maybe you should have a little more humanity, and understanding!!

The terrorists, ALL proxy groups of Iran, invaded Israel on 7 Oct. and brutally killed men, women, kids, and babies in a kibbutz, for absolutely no reason, other than they were Jewish.

It really makes no difference how you view those people who have been living in Israel, what matters is that they were brutally attacked, unprovoked and defenseless.

I’m wondering how YOU can sleep at night, having so much hate! Racist much!

Neither Jews nor Muslims are Christians who have Christ’s love in their hearts, so it is not surprising they sin.

Do you have an answer to my question about gender dysphoria?

We can round up everyone who has come here seeking a better life, those hoping to start over in a Christian nation, and put them in detention camps. Then ship them all back where they came from. That would be a good start wouldn't it.

How bout we ship them to your backyard?

 

[Lightbeamrider]

We don't. We don't mix politics with God.

That is not the point of the thread.

We never legislate religion because we become like some fundamentalist Muslim countries.

Garbage. Total crock. Fear mongering

We can never make someone believe what we want,

The Nazis agree. Why not sing hymns while secular authorities ship declared inferiors in boxcars to concentration camps to be killed, including women and children? How far do you have to have your head shoved where the sun does not shine? Cowardice and doing nothing is not a virtue. We have duties as Christians

otherwise the Most High would have made us robots to begin with since The Garden.
We can lead someone to water but we can't make them drink.

Who is talking about conversion here? That is not the subject.

This is why we separate these topics.
In this election, i am hoping that Trump wins to counterbalance the insanity from the left.

All political movements are, at their foundation, spiritual battles. Which is why our DOI along with rights from God which transcend the rule of men. Law is King, not king is law or king can do no wrong. All from the OT. They did not get your memo.

They definitely should be shipped to Democrat domains.

Anyone interested in learning why the Dems are Marxists should read Alinsky's "Rules for Radicals". While the history of wars against threats to our liberty is fairly well known, what is only recently becoming apparent is the threat our disunity will end in socialism, which now governs most of the world and almost every aspect of our society–education, entertainment, news, social media, banking and monopolistic businesses–corrupting politicians and elections.

The main cause of this corruption is that following WWII America allowed subversive educators to infiltrate universities, including Herbert Marcuse and Marxist Saul Alinsky, whose book "Rules for Radicals" was dedicated to Satan and whose rules included deception and violence (the end justifies the means).

The teachings of such radical professors has influenced many college students (including Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama) to favor socialist policies. (See "The War for America’s Soul" by Gorka, p. 59-65.) Many Americans are oblivious to the slow disintegration of the Constitutional consensus, because the owners of most news media were similarly educated and sympathetic.

If the root cause of the problem is Marxist professors, then what is the essential solution?

If the root cause is Marxism, we should really dig out who is marx, who supported him, how did this satanic theology become so big?

History, history, history.

There is no new things under the Sun.

Well, history is good, but IMO the main need now is to solve the problem.
What is your suggestion?

We have to know who is the real enemy, correct?
Hint, whoever is against Jesus.

Correct, and we should know by now that our enemy is Satan and his atheist minions,
who include Marxist professors in US colleges teaching our children to be against Jesus,
who are infesting academia, media and government with that evil ideology.

Therefore, the solution should start with____________?

That is part of the solution advocated by Charlie Kirk,
so you are warm, but what else?

Yeah, he got too far in to politics.

The Lord never gave the Body of Christ the mandate to take over politics or to be overly involved in the affairs of this life.

Trying to mix politics and Christianity produces a fake gospel that tries to present to people that our hope is in politics which turn off a lot of people that may have otherwise been interested in becoming a born again Christian.

Christians are called to win the lost and make disciples leading people in to the Kingdom of God, not politics which is nothing but a clown show on both sides of the isle.

Nobody can change what is coming... Peter 'savoured' the wrong thing... I stopped voting and picked up the popcorn a long time ago.

Matthew 16
21 From that time forth began Jesus to shew unto his disciples, how that he must go unto Jerusalem, and suffer many things of the elders and chief priests and scribes, and be killed, and be raised again the third day.
22 Then Peter took him, and began to rebuke him, saying, Be it far from thee, Lord: this shall not be unto thee.
23 But he turned, and said unto Peter, Get thee behind me, Satan: thou art an offence unto me: for thou savourest not the things that be of God, but those that be of men.

Egypt is going to destroy Babylon. Egypt is the world, mystery Babylon is the mother of harlots and killed the prophets and crucified the Lord Jesus. Then the Lord will come and destroy the 'world'. Satan is the god of this world and Jesus has overcome this world. Not one stone will be left upon another.

2 Peter 3
10 But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night; in the which the heavens shall pass away with a great noise, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat, the earth also and the works that are therein shall be burned up.
11 Seeing then that all these things shall be dissolved, what manner of persons ought ye to be in all holy conversation and godliness,
12 Looking for and hasting unto the coming of the day of God, wherein the heavens being on fire shall be dissolved, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat?
13 Nevertheless we, according to his promise, look for new heavens and a new earth, wherein dwelleth righteousness.
14 Wherefore, beloved, seeing that ye look for such things, be diligent that ye may be found of him in peace, without spot, and blameless.

Nothing is new....

Isaiah 3
12 As for my people, children are their oppressors, and women rule over them. O my people, they which lead thee cause thee to err, and destroy the way of thy paths.

Isaiah 1
7 Your country is desolate, your cities are burned with fire: your land, strangers devour it in your presence, and it is desolate, as overthrown by strangers.

My best friend shares your view, which I think is wrong because it fails to realize that our calling is both to win the lost
and to work or apply GW to immoral politics. Not doing both perverts the Gospel. Of course our hope for heaven is Jesus,
who taught us to pray for God's will to be done on earth as it is in heaven.

Yes, there may be clowns on both sides of the political aisle, but one is blind if he cannot see most atheists are Dems rather than MAGA. CK showed Christians how to apply GW to politics, especially by being one of the first to say that homosexuality is a mental illness rather than a viable alternative lifestyle.
