    Canada will face a 35% tariff. Retaliatory Tariffs will be added to the 35%

    Sorry i do not see how tariffs are related to Fentanyl. I guess they are just a punishment and so we now have a trade war. Canada will tolerate this for a time, then they will raise tariffs too if no better agreement is reached. Trump getting involved in Canada likely cost the conservatives in...

    Pastor, father of 5 deported to Guatemala after 2 decades in Florida

    I too admit it is still possible to get a U.S. visa and citizenship. However, that is harder now than at most previous times. Some though are locked out like this pastor. He had temporary status and Congress never paved the way to make it possible for him since he was illegal twice and likely...

    Pastor, father of 5 deported to Guatemala after 2 decades in Florida

    Actually I have known only a few that have gotten citizenship. Just last week though my retired Navy friend, returning to the USA with his foreign wife, was berated by US immigration for having left the USA. This pattern has repeated for them enough that they no longer are pursuing US permanent...

    Am I a false Christian or a "victim" of Satan?

    Hopefully others can answer more too. God wants to bless us and though he gives various seasons in our life, to me it would seem that he does sometimes give us things to help in our lives. I may really like a hobby, but is it an idol? That seems a stretch unless it is something sinful or really...

    Johnson Amendment Dead: IRS says church leaders can endorse candidates to their flock without risking tax-exempt status. Other 501c3's still can't.

    So some preachers will try to become more political. But are they knowledgeable? Are they going to shift time from focusing on Jesus to political things? Will churches cease to be a refuge for the lost and now a target for the opposition? Dissension and partisanship will rise as will hate and...

    Budget cuts

    Budget cuts can work both ways. Suppose an organization was told to cut 5% of their employees. IF they cut out the worst performers, the laggards, the toxic and those who really were uncommitted, the organization efficacy or abilities could really increase and productivity might expand. Cutting...

    Am I a false Christian or a "victim" of Satan?

    What struck me in reading your post is the giving up the internet radio. It seems that is where you turned negative. Was it because you became resentful that you had to give this up or perhaps what you seemingly heard may not have been God? It does not seem sinful if in the right proportions...

    Pastor, father of 5 deported to Guatemala after 2 decades in Florida

    I do not think he could apply as a minor. Once he was 18, if he wants to immigrate legally there are a host of issues. He would have to name his parents and where they live plus ICE would check anyone at his address likely to see if there were other illegals. He would have to have sufficient...

    Pc question

    Thanks for your reply. It happens everytime going to this. It goes to repair next but it cant fix itself. I can go to cmd and using xcopy i was able to get to my files. I probably will just remove the old ssd and get a new one. I am thinking the old ssd can be used as an external drive allowing...

    Pray for financial health

    It is great your seeking God on this. Of course i dont know your giving and its not my business except to mention a renewed interest in giving to God really can stop the devour and help with any financial situation. Usually too some problems can end up a blessing as we take corrective measures...

    The shrewdly drawn-up big ugly bill...

    You list some good points that i agree with. The elephant in this bill is it increases the deficits. So more interest, more crowding out people of getting a decent interest rate are sure to follow. I hate too that projections can be way off. The Gop projections from the clinton surplus were way...

    How does the idea that most of Gods creation he will have to burn forever bring glory to God?

    Yes, i agree with that. The elevated status we have aa children bought by the blood is far above anythin adam and eve had.
