Why Mr Biden and Mr Trump deserve honor and respect

[discombobulated1]

That's because mature Christians these days have the same ideology as you do that tells them not to seek power in office.

This is how our country began to FAIL

1 Corinthians 1:10 Now I plead with you, brethren, by the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that you all [a]speak the same thing, and that there be no divisions among you, but that you be perfectly joined together in the same mind and in the same judgment.

Titus 3:1 Remind them to be subject to rulers and authorities, to obey, to be ready for every good work, 2 to speak evil of no one, to be peaceable, gentle, showing all humility to all men. 3 For we ourselves were also once foolish, disobedient, deceived, serving various lusts and pleasures, living in malice and envy, hateful and hating one another. 4 But when the kindness and the love of God our Savior toward man appeared, 5 not by works of righteousness which we have done, but according to His mercy He saved us, through the washing of regeneration and renewing of the Holy Spirit, 6 whom He poured out on us abundantly through Jesus Christ our Savior, 7 that having been justified by His grace we should become heirs according to the hope of eternal life.

8 This is a faithful saying, and these things I want you to affirm constantly, that those who have believed in God should be careful to maintain good works. These things are good and profitable to men.

Avoid Dissension
9 But avoid foolish disputes, genealogies, contentions, and strivings about the law; for they are unprofitable and useless. 10 Reject a divisive man after the first and second [a]admonition, 11 knowing that such a person is warped and sinning, being self-condemned

You can save yourself a lot of time

I have read the entire Bible

and read it over and over again

If we were to "avoid [all] dissension

we would have to be a hermit and avoid ALL contact with ALL humans

LOL

No. You just hold your tongue and judgement. Show self control, sound mind and speech, and discipline

These men are God's government authorities. As such I must honor them and obey them according to Romans chapter 13 and Titus chapter 3. I don't judge them as government leaders but I let God judge them.

I judge them as Christians however and i do not follow any politician or teacher. I follow Christ and his apostles. I follow scripture and the holy spirit.

Honor is something that must be earned. So is respect. I recognize their dignity as human persons. I obey them as long as they do not order something illegal or immoral. Therein lies the problem.

You don't get it. We honor Cesar by not rebelling against him. We don't honor his ways however. We let God judge him. As scripture said

Frankly, I don't see a lot of dignity in someone who violates laws of both Church and state and endangers fellow Americans (so called... I dont really think the elite consider themselves "fellow Americans" because they think most Americans are beneath them)

sounds like a cop out

go along to get along

I don't think that will save this country.

Voting for Trump by the millions could, though...

Him giving his money away to the poor might save people but arguing like an infant Christian won't.

I cant fellowship with this contention. That's my point. I testify

 

[HopeSings]

Politics and Hollywood are full of gossip, judging and slander. It's also full of pride, vanity, fear and contention

The country needs to be saved from him, not by him. People like you are still under his spell. He is not a Julius Caesar though he wants to be..

My hiding place

"I hide in the Lord under the shadow of his wings
my heart sings of mercy and virtuous things

a merciful God full of truth and grace
I hope in Him. He is my hiding place

I am broken, needy, and utterly afflicted
the Lord is my strength, and my hope resurrected"

 

[discombobulated1]

No. You just hold your tongue and judgement. Show self control, sound mind and speech, and discipline

some day, if I keep following Jesus, why... I'll end up perfect like you!

can't wait!

Oh, now i'm "under a spell"

It couldn't be that I like

secure borders
the unborn
the Constitution
law and order

and I could go on and on but you're not listening so I won't.
