The violence demonstrated by both ends are wrong. What WE must understand however, is that neither the police nor those affected negatively or the protesters, looters and
rioters are our enemies!


Always remember that we battle NOT with flesh and blood! Thus OUR enemy is the system we uphold to the grave. Take money away, give everyone, you, me and all the world everything for free and peace will REIGN!

But the honest truth is that we don't want peace. We were trained to love our servitude well.

When this world economy falls, war in heaven (mankind's collective mind) will begin.

FS, we can't reign in peace. Christ will bring peace through force when he returns as the lion. Until then, God has given authority to governments to carry the sword, and has commanded us to respect them. They are not wrong for carrying the sword. How dare you try to make this a moral equivalence. The tragedies we are seeing today are the result of a lack of respect for authority. Parents are not teaching their kids to respect the police, but rather to rebel and not respect authority at all. The end result is high murder rates and death at times by the very authorities they are resisting.

This is very in line with what scripture describes as the last days. Things are getting worse just as predicted. But we christians can obey and at least raise our own kids to respect authority, and prolong their lives that way. But it's sad that many parents are doing just the opposite and hurting their own kids.

Christ came as a lamb, did He not? Will there not be co-heirs?

Again, there has not been a "government" since before 1871. How dare you step on the morality of the poor to pay for yours!? Before attacking what I say, study and understand what "law" is. People printing money out of thin air I have NEVER given my allegiance to! Yet this is the cause of all our problems.

You are mentioning money in a lot of posts and how great would it be to change the system.
Yes, I agree, it would be... but... GOD said there would always be poor with us:
Deuteronomy 15:11 For the poor shall never cease out of the land: therefore I command thee, saying, Thou shalt open thine hand wide unto thy brother, to thy poor, and to thy needy, in thy land.
(also see Matt 26:11, Mark 14:7...). It would be wonderful if we could change the system, but it is apparently not how God planned it to be. We are meant to be trusting God for our daily bread (and meaning Jesus when saying daily bread, not even being concerned with the financial welfare, just trusting) and share what we have.
I am not rich, btw, I only have personal things like clothes, computer... I dont have a car or house, so I am not saying this because I would lose big riches :) I dont have them. There are always those who have less, though.

Yes, he's both the lion and the lamb and came as a lamb but will return as a lion. Are you not familiar with scripture at all? Do you not know the lion of Judah is returning?


Rev. 5:5 Then one of the elders said to me, “Do not weep! See, the Lion of the tribe of Judah, the Root of David, has triumphed. He is able to open the scroll and its seven seals.”
