As you say later in this post, words have power. They also have meaning. Better to say "The Lord rebuke you" than "I bind you." As I showed, you cannot bind the s enemy. Zechariah 3:1-2 NASB 3 Then he showed me Joshua the high priest standing before the angel of the Lord, and Satan standing at...

I think they are confusing binding with restraining. They also assume God's will aligns with theirs, which is backwards. Our will must align with His, which often means we accept a negative outcome. "Negative" may not be the best term; He always has our best interests at heart. But we tend to...

No, I was replying to another poster. Simple is good! :)

Agree. But following the likes of COpeland will not get you to victory. Matthew 18:15-19 ESV 15 “If your brother sins against you, go and tell him his fault, between you and him alone. If he listens to you, you have gained your brother. 16 But if he does not listen, take one or two others...

Actually, the moral "law" given to Moses is the Torah, the 1st five books of our Bibles. Not really "law," though there are some laws given therein, they are really just God's instructions to us in living holy lives. They are how we should walk with a Holy God (which you seem to say something...

I'm going to write this in 2 parts because, as the title suggests there are 2 parts. Part 1: I was recently hospitalized with Covid. I went unvaxed and unmasked among some serious anti people for 2 years, ever since this hit. I am neither pro nor anti either, but neither did I worry. I have...

Have to be careful too and keep oven temp LOW so not to effect temper of springs. Not sure at what temp that might happen, but I know I don't want to get anywhere near it! LOL, I have a "no glow" policy on heating gun parts!

"A good ultrasonic cleaner would be a blessing too." Boy, wouldn't it just! BP is prone to gumming with almost anything, it seems. That's why I break it down and scrub with hot soapy water. Then new lube, baked in then well drained while hot. Even then gumming can occur.

"the cap and ball conicals did not have a hollow base." Interesting. It would be fun to shoot a few. I can believe they didn't take the whole gun down to clean back then, especially in field conditions. It requires tools, and smaller pieces would be too easy to loose. I use 2 old kitchen...

Oh yeah, even Privates used them! All Mosby's cavalrymen/raiders had at least 2 instead of swords. He believed they were far more effective than a sword, and it is hard to argue with success! Cleaning BP guns with petroleum based products is not recommended. Can really gum up the works. I just...

The .36 was a Navy pistol; smaller, lighter, better balanced, easier to handle and aim accurately. But if a Navy officer needed a pistol it would likely be on the deck of a ship at close quarters. Army officers needed the extra stoping power and distance, so the .44 was created as a scaled up...

Well, if I can remember that far back, they like snakes too!

Black powder is a great way to teach kids to shoot and, as you said to introduce adults to shooting. You can load down so not much recoil/muzzle rise and not a lot of noise. They don't learn to flinch right off like that. Then work up to full loads. Those aren't typically bad anyhow with BP...

LOL, true dat ... but smoke is concealment- I want cover!

Uhhh, should I ever be so unfortunate as to be in a gunfight, you bet I'm gonna move! Being in a fight seems to presuppose he's already seen me. Now he can see how fast these old bones can get motating! ... Practice shooting while running for cover! Course I shoot black powder, so I'm probably...

Thx. I'll go over and check it out.

LOL, yep! Tarred n' feathered!

Uh, I'd have to disagree there! It's God's "law." How unwholesome can it be? Wishy-washy "do what your heart desires" preaching is more to blame. God said don't do it, so I don't! I look at it more as God's instructions to me to holy living; how to walk before a holy God. 1 John 3:4 (ESV)...

LOL, yeah, for my first post (other than this) I just posted there on a discussion about tongues. I'll probably be tarred and feathered for my views there, but if they can scripturally convince me I'll listen. Otherwise I'll just be here, pluckin' feathers!

"There was NEVER any heavenly languages spoken that no one understood and required an interpreter." Only once I can think of- when Daniel interpreted the handwriting on the wall. That said, whenever the Bible speaks of "tongues" it means an intelligible language; one known to earthly men...
