is it warm

Warm indeed, remote start system to get it warmed up. It has full time FWD, but also a "Snow" mode which locks the differentials and is heavy enough to go through a foot of snow. While the Jeep is warm, the weather is not; already went down to -17 C. two nights ago. In Feb. It is not uncommon to see lows of -25 C.

Awfully sorry - I had no idea.

1Co 7:13 And the woman which hath an husband that believeth not, and if he be pleased to dwell with her, let her not leave him.

If you are on the mission field in your own home, you have an opportunity to win him to Christ as he can see in you the selfless love of Christ. Sometimes you can use humor to get a message across. For example, if you were to say with a smile and a wink, "If you trusted in Jesus, you could be as happy and contented as I am".This can even be used with irony if you have had a particularly bad day.

Some Christians are even unaware that we are supposed to be transitioning from the selfishness of the flesh to the selflessness of biblical love (1Cor 13:4-7), much less than actually doing so. If we show in our lives no difference between us and the unsaved, no one would see any reason to trust in Jesus.

Christ was humble, and we should all strive to be more like Christ.

My hope is that, as Americans, we open our eyes to that potential—and do whatever we can to keep that American exceptionalism alive, and that we continue to support the institutions that create stability, and have created stability for the United States, and that we hold on to the Constitution that binds us all.”

Because if you love America as a beacon of hope, you have to love liberty and justice for all. America and its ideals are always worth fighting for."

March 17, 2025: "30 years ago, my family arrived in the United States, a land of hope and opportunity. I'm fighting so everyone can have a real chance at the American dream. That includes making sure everyone has healthcare, stable housing, and a quality education."

August 31, 2023: "I remember how beautiful it was to get naturalized, it’s a feeling of belonging that stays with you... [I'm] always and forever grateful to America for giving me and my family the ability to live in a country without limitations to achieve my dreams of happiness and success."

July 4. 2020: "True patriotism is not about defending one leader or political party. It is about fighting for your country and its dignity — doing everything you can to uplift and protect your citizens and the Constitution."

I don't want to get into a competition on what Omar has said. Are you saying she has not said or done things that show she hates the US, whites and Jews. In the language and narratives she uses.

From what I have heard she has often mentioned white supremacy and in fact just about blames everything on western white supremacy ect. The same Critical race theory ideology others push with DEI.

I mean even her own Deomcrates have criticised her for her Tweets on Isreal and also likening the US and Isreal with Hamas and Taliban.

But mostly I feel the whole fraud thing was under her watch. She was closely linked to a lot of this. I am not saying she did anything wrong. But that her attention was more on her own people and not the good of the US. Perhaps like Waltz they seen something going on but turned a blind eye because they were afraid of upsetting people.

I am pretty sure a lot of these same people who were defrauding were supporting her campaign election with funding. Its not a good look.

The so called Dark Ages is a conspiracy in itself lol. Christianity was continuing to grow, new Kingdoms emerging and other developements. Christianity did not just disappear lol.

What was Paul talking about when he mentions the spirit and flesh. Same thing. Christian belief and thought were steeped in the mind and body duality. John especially elaborates on this as well with the concept of the Word becoming flesh. The Word being something that existed before all physical reality. It gave birth to physical reality.

This was well known by the early Christians.

BCP1928 said:

No, I am not. I am merely pointing out that substance dualism is neither fundamental to Christian doctrine nor necessary to it.

Click to expand...

I disagree. Maybe not in the Greek form but every big the same concept of a spirit or something with a soul and Mind that moves on beyond the physical word. Christian teachings and beliefs are full of such ideas.

BCP1928 said:

Yes, it doesn't matter. And rejecting your take on it--which is what we are doing here--doesn't deny it anyway.

Click to expand...

Like I said that does not matter. The important thing is that by rejecting my take and supporting someone elses take or the possibility of someone elses take on what is the Mind and Body divide is still supporting that there is such a thing regardless.

This is supporting what I just said. That one way or another humans believe in something beyond the material world. Which shows its a natural part of being humans. Which shows that ,aterial science cannot claim the ontological truth about what is reality.

Which means they can describe what they think happened and that no God was required. But really thats just a belief just as much as Christians believe God is the creator.
