    Has anyone had any luck going into stores wearing a "breathable mask?"

    Yes, those who find it difficult to breathe - understand what that's like, better than anyone else! As is true of other things. What we experience is what we understand the best. And we are better able to sympathize with those who have had similar problems as ourselves. God is broadminded...

    Has anyone had any luck going into stores wearing a "breathable mask?"

    I am not a driver. But I see no harm in stopping at red lights if that's the law, even if it isn't always necessary. However, if it endangered my health - my life - or others - to be stopping at a red light - than it's clear it shouldn't be done. But stopping at a red light isn't harmful -...

    Has anyone had any luck going into stores wearing a "breathable mask?"

    I respect your views. But health matters to God, and I see it as God's will for me to protect my health by not wearing a mask that makes it hard for me to breathe, as I am a "temple of the Holy Ghost." I don't expect all Christians to agree on this subject of the masks. I believe all...

    Has anyone had any luck going into stores wearing a "breathable mask?"

    I respect your view and you of course must do what you feel in your conscience - is the right thing to do in this matter. But to me - wearing a mask, unless one is forced to wear one - is to appear to agree with the mask law. And I see the mask law as being wrong and not healthful and not...

    Has anyone had any luck going into stores wearing a "breathable mask?"

    Oh I see - interesting idea - wearing panty hose as a face mask! Yes, I imagine some areas differ compared to others as to how tolerant they're wiling to be towards those who don't want to wear the masks! Plus some stores - I've noticed are more tolerant than others, here.

    It's interesting that the Egyptians couldn't see the cloud

    Yes, it's interesting to know that the "angel" mentioned as going before the people of Israel, was in reality - God! I'd forgotten that. Sometimes, the word, "angel" - means "God" - as the word can mean either a angel as we know it or God. Yes, it's refreshing to read of miraculous events...

    My Commentary on George Whitefield, after reading about him online - Wikipedia, etc.

    Thanks for reminding me of that! That in spite of their theological differences, they had remained good friends! Yes, I gather that the Arminians and Calvinists often clash with each other. I think this kind of clashing is more common in Bible groups in Facebook. I find this...

    It's interesting that the Egyptians couldn't see the cloud

    Thanks - good passage - I'd forgotten that one - I like the whole part: 1 Cor 10:1-4 10:1 Moreover, brethren, I would not that ye should be ignorant, how that all our fathers were under the cloud, and all passed through the sea; 2 And were all baptized unto Moses in the cloud and in the sea...

    Has anyone had any luck going into stores wearing a "breathable mask?"

    Ha ha! Yes, exactly - a mask would be good if one wanted to rob a bank! Yes, I agree with you that the masking tyranny (and related Coronovirus hoax - I call it a hoax as it's tremendously exaggerated) has been brought about by evil people in governments around the world. I am glad you...

    Jesus is our bread & drink, symbolically speaking

    You're right - I checked the etymology of "Bethlehem" from a Bible site and it said this: The name Bethlehem: Summary MeaningHouse Of Bread, House Of WarEtymologyFrom (1) the noun בית (beth), house, and (2) the verb לחם (laham), both to war and to eat. Yes, that's interesting that Jesus - the...

    Eating less during ragweed allergy season helps me

    You're right! My brother's wife goes without food for about a week, now and then. She says it helps her feel better. I can't handle that as I'd feel worse. But everybody's body is different so we all have to figure out what works best for us. As for me, after about a week, I think of...

    My Commentary on George Whitefield, after reading about him online - Wikipedia, etc.

    George was a powerful revivalist, and converted many to Christ, throughout his life. I'm thankful for all of the great spiritual revivals he generated through his preaching. Just as I am for all the good spiritual revivals that took place in early USA history. If it hadn't been for them...

    Has anyone had any luck going into stores wearing a "breathable mask?"

    Oh, my goodness! And thanks for showing me the picture of your humorous way of following the rules that "everyone must wear a mask!" I'll have to tell my family about it so they can laugh at your ingenuity, too!

    Has anyone had any luck going into stores wearing a "breathable mask?"

    Oh thank you! It's interesting to know! And of course - helpful! You have even bigger breathing holes than I have - compared to lace - which I made mine from. I wore it once so far - in a place that used to always stop me if they saw me without a mask - but this time - no one said...

    It's interesting that the Egyptians couldn't see the cloud

    Ex 14:19-20 19 And the angel of God, which went before the camp of Israel, removed and went behind them; and the pillar of the cloud went from before their face, and stood behind them: 20 And it came between the camp of the Egyptians and the camp of Israel; and it was a cloud and darkness to...

    I respect your views here. But it isn't what I see in the scriptures.
