I don’t hate all ICE. I worked in law enforcement, so I know several. One of my friends said “what they’re asking us to do is messed up, I quit because it’s against my ethics.”

I like him.

And if you can't then take the welfare.

Okay, then give them a time limit to get a better paying job. And if they can't seem to find one, assign them one. If you are a healthy adult then theee isn't any reason you can't find a better paying job within a reasonable amount of time.

Right now it's mostly 60 months. 5 years? You have to be kidding me. If you are a healthy adult you shouldn't be in welfare any longer than 6 months. At least in today's economy.

It is quite clear but you are arguing the wrong side of the verse.

“But now apart from the Law the righteousness of God has been revealed, being witnessed by the Law and the Prophets, but it is the righteousness of God through faith in Jesus Christ for all those who believe;

The verse is very clear that APART from the law the righteousness of God has been revealed. Did you get that part “apart from the law”?

So how do you reconcile your interpretation of that verse with this one?:

(CLV) Mt 5:20
For I am saying to you that, if ever your righteousness should not be superabounding more than that of the scribes and Pharisees, by no means may you be entering into the kingdom of the heavens.

Hentenza said:
Your secular definition of righteousness falls in light of the redemptive sacrifice of our Lord.

I didn't realize that divine law was secular.

(CLV) Dt 4:8
And what great nation is there which has statutes and ordinances so righteous as all this law that I am putting before you today?

(CLV) Pr 21:15
A rejoicing to the righteous one is the execution of right judgment, Yet an undoing to those who contrive| lawlessness.

(CLV) Pr 29:6
In the transgression of an evil man is a trap, Yet the righteous one may run and rejoice.

(CLV) Pr 29:16
When the wicked increase- transgression |increases, Yet the righteous shall see their downfall.

(CLV) Isa 29:20
For the terrifier will reach his limit, And the mocker will be finished, And all who are alert for lawlessness will be cut off,

(CLV) Isa 29:21
Those who make a person a sinner with a word, And for the arbitrator in the gateway they lay a trap And are turning aside the righteous into a chaos.

(CLV) Ezk 3:20
Again, when a righteous one turns back from his righteousness and does iniquity when I put a stumbling block before him, he shall die. If you do not warn him, he shall die in his sin, and his righteous acts which he had done shall not be remembered, but his blood I shall seek to exact from your hand.

(CLV) Ezk 3:21
Yet you, if you do warn him, this righteous one, by no means to sin, and he, the righteous one, does not sin, he shall live, yea live for taking warning, and you will have rescued your soul.

(CLV) Ezk 18:9
He walks in My statutes and observes My ordinances, to do truth; he is righteous; he shall live, yea live, averring is my Lord Yahweh.

(CLV) Ezk 18:20
The soul that is sinning, it shall die; the son shall not bear the depravity of the father, and the father shall not bear the depravity of the son; the righteousness of the righteous one shall be reckoned onto him, and the wickedness of the wicked one shall be reckoned onto him.

(CLV) Ezk 18:24
Yet when the righteous one turns back from his righteousness and commits iniquity like all the abhorrences which the wicked one commits, shall he do so and live? All his righteous acts which he did shall not be remembered; in his offense with which he offended and in his sin with which he sinned, in them shall he die.

(CLV) Ezk 18:26
When the righteous one turns back from his righteousness and commits iniquity, he will die for it; in his iniquity which he commits he shall die.

(CLV) Ezk 33:12
Yet you, son of humanity, say to the sons of your people: The righteousness of the righteous one shall not rescue him in the day of his transgression; as for the wickedness of the wicked one, he shall not be caused to stumble by it in the day he turns back from his wickedness, and the righteous one cannot live by it in the day he sins.

(CLV) Ho 14:9
Who is wise shall also understand these things. These being understood, he shall also acknowledge them. For upright are the ways of Yahweh, And the righteous, they shall walk in them. Yet the transgressors, they shall be stumbled in them.

(CLV) Am 2:6
Thus says Yahweh: Due to three transgressions of Israel, And due to four, I shall not turn it back, Because they sold the righteous for silver, And the needy for the sake of a pair of sandals;

In a sign that things are definitely going well for his second term, Donald Trump is promising to send cash to every American. Tucked away in a series of posts on Truth Social that railed against recent setbacks for his tariff scheme, Trump promised a tariff dividend for every American worth several thousand dollars.

“People that are against Tariffs are FOOLS! We are now the Richest, Most Respected Country In the World, With Almost No Inflation, and A Record Stock Market Price. 401k’s are Highest EVER. We are taking in Trillions of Dollars

Trump promises $2000 tariff dividend to all Americans

The president is trying to save his tariff scheme with the promise of cold, hard cash

And as we all know, a tucked-away post during one of his online meltdowns is as good as law. It joins the other proclamations he’s made online during his word vomit sessions, like Taylor Swift not being hot, leading the assault on behalf of Merry Christmas, transgender mice, and Cher’s plastic surgery.

Meanwhile, also in Chicago - 238 people were shot and killed at a Popeye's Chicken location within the span of five minutes. When pressed for answers as to how so many people could be killed at such a small restaurant in such a short period of time, Cook County homicide detectives replied "We're looking into it.

So, when you claim that "The very thing described in Matthew and Mark as the AoD Luke identifies as the Roman Army of Jesus' time", it is actually your own interpretation and not what Luke identified.

There is nothing in Luke that linked the Olivet Discourse to the Roman Army.

Oh my goodness, brother--READ IT! Mind you, I've quoted it innumerable periods of times. I will do it again and underline the point....

Luke 21.5 Some of his disciples were remarking about how the temple was adorned with beautiful stones and with gifts dedicated to God. But Jesus said, 6 “As for what you see here, the time will come when not one stone will be left on another; every one of them will be thrown down.”
7 “Teacher,” they asked, “when will these things happen? And what will be the sign that they are about to take place?”...
20 “When you see Jerusalem being surrounded by armies, you will know that its desolation is near. 21 Then let those who are in Judea flee to the mountains, let those in the city get out, and let those in the country not enter the city. 22 For this is the time of punishment in fulfillment of all that has been written. 23 How dreadful it will be in those days for pregnant women and nursing mothers! There will be great distress in the land and wrath against this people. 24 They will fall by the sword and will be taken as prisoners to all the nations. Jerusalem will be trampled on by the Gentiles until the times of the Gentiles are fulfilled."...
32 “Truly I tell you, this generation will certainly not pass away until all these things have happened.

There are 3 perfectly clear things said here, though anybody can argue anything until they're blue in the face.
1) Jesus said the Temple would be destroyed.
2) Jesus said the Temple would be destroyed in his generation.
3) Jesus said Jerusalem would be surrounded by armies, preceding its destruction.

We *know* that the Roman Army surrounded Jerusalem in Jesus' generation and proceeded to destroy it and the Temple. So yes, Luke is explicitly indicating that the armies of their own generation would destroy Jerusalem and the Temple. That positively describes the Roman Army.

If you're just arguing that Luke doesn't use the word "Roman" I think you're being "difficult." Luke wouldn't want to write "Roman" in the presence of Roman overseers who would jail him for insubordination or even sedition.

2nd, it is obvious from Daniel that this was the 4th and last enemy of Israel in the series of 4 kingdoms, Dan 2 and 7. That would be Rome.

Finally, Daniel indicated that the people (army) of the ruler to come, ie Rome would destroy the "city and the sanctuary." Again, that has to be Rome, and Luke surely knew this! The same ruler who would preside over the cutting off of Messiah, fulfilling the promised redemption, would also preside over the destruction of the city and the sanctuary.

Obviously, Rome had Jesus put to death. And it would be Rome who destroys Jerusalem and the Temple in his generation.

Luke 19.43 The days will come upon you when your enemies will build an embankment against you and encircle you and hem you in on every side. 44 They will dash you to the ground, you and the children within your walls. They will not leave one stone on another, because you did not recognize the time of God’s coming to you.”

Who was Israel's "enemies?" Obviously, it was Rome.

Sure! They are ok to have. As I said, God’s creation. You admire them because they are apart of that. God knows your heart. Those stones have no supernatural or demonic power. You can collect them simply because you enjoy them. I have stones with spikes too, it’s just the way they develop.

Completely understandable. You were grasping at straws out of desperation. But you know that these things have no power. If you enjoy the Lord’s creation simply for its beauty, its just that. Nothing more. Enjoy what the Lord has made and rejoice in it! Thank Him for it.

Ok, thanks. Sometimes I fear that some New Agey power is what’s drawing me to them because everytime I see one I’m like “oooooooooh look! Aren‘t they pretty” Especially when the light makes them sparkle.

OK lets take the claim you made about the strirations on the granite box in the Kings chamber. You presented evidence that shows a giant copper saw was used to cut the box. The signatures or witness marks are the strirations that resemble a copper saw with sand/quartz abrasion.

I addressed this evidence by saying that this does not prove that machining was not used. That more than one method was used. You seem to think that this one piece of evidence you present somehow makes all the witness marks that look completely different to your example and more like machining.

If we are going to be fair and use logic and reasoning and a consistent standard for evidence then surely we have to also include all the signatures and not just your one to determine what method was used.

Is this not fair epistemically. That we apply the same logic of looking at signatures as to what caused them and not just your one example.

You seem to think your example represents all the signatures from saw cuts in Egypt.

Therefore if I show you images of other signatures that contradict your claim. Is this not fair evidence that you need to address. Even from the same box you are using.

What is so patently ridiculous about your post none of your images even comes remotely close to representing a machined surface.
This is what granite looks like when it is cut with a circular saw using a very fine diamond grit leaving barely discernible striations and a fairly smooth surface.

By comparison you submitted this as an example of a circular saw cut; instead it is a signature of abrasion done by hand using a rubbing stone and slurry as the striations are of variable depth and width due to different grit sizes in the slurry while the gap between the striations varies as the abrasive in the slurry is mobile.

Along with Khufu’s unfinished sarcophagus I can provide over two million more examples that blocks were not cut with circulars saws namely the limestone blocks used for the core of the Great Pyramid.

If you think these were done with circular saws then you need to explain their irregular shapes and extreme roughness.
As limestone is soft the builders used sandstone pounders which have been found at Giza instead of dolomite pounders.
Since the limestone blocks were covered there was no need to dress and smooth them like the surrounding casing stones found at the base of the pyramid which were pounded into shape and smoothed by hand abrasion.

Will you now please correct your post? I'm sure that you wouldn't want to be associated with what someone told you now knowing that it's a lie.

Yes — there are lawsuits in California involving churches and alleged violations of COVID-19 public health orders. Here are a couple of significant examples:

Example 1: Calvary Chapel San Jose (San José, CA)

In this case, Calvary Chapel San Jose and its senior pastor, Mike McClure, were sued by Santa Clara County for unpaid fines of more than $2.8 million, for alleged repeated violations of the county’s COVID-19 indoor gathering and mask mandates.
A judge denied a motion to dismiss that lawsuit, meaning the case is ongoing (as of the latest publicly reported update).
In April 2023, the church was ordered by a California Superior Court to pay $1.2 million in fines for mask and indoor gathering violations (November 2020–June 2021) in Santa Clara County.
The church continues to challenge the fines and the underlying enforcement, arguing religious freedom claims.

Example 2: South Bay United Pentecostal Church (Chula Vista, CA)

This church sued the State of California over COVID-19 restrictions on indoor worship and singing. The state agreed to a settlement: pay ~$1.6 million in attorneys’ fees and enter into a permanent injunction prohibiting certain discriminatory restrictions against houses of worship.

Key take-aways

Yes, there are lawsuits and enforcement actions in California involving churches and alleged COVID-19 rule violations.
These cases involve both:
- Enforcement action by governmental authorities (fines for non-compliance with health orders)
- Lawsuits by churches challenging governmental orders (on religious freedom/First Amendment grounds)
Results have varied: some fines upheld, some settlements reached, some ongoing litigation.
The legal context is complex because it involves public-health orders, free exercise of religion, procedural issues (state vs federal courts), and differential treatment of gatherings.

Newsom is the governor of California he is where the buck stops . No Newsom is not himself in court heading up these cases but it is his state gone crazy. One church sued the state for the ridiculous restrictions that were unfairly used against some churches. Newsom is the head of the state that caused this mess.

The video is from the coastal area of Antarctica, there is even a guy with short sleeves on in one of the videos, Antarctica is vast. Those who tried to circle it in the 1800s logged something like 60000 miles give or take, because it is an ice wall, not a continent.

She had a pretty big patch of cancer on her face. We spent all day last Monday getting it removed. They had to go in 3 times after lab checks. But they think they got it all. She has a big Z shaped cut with stitches on the side of her face and part of it is really close to the corner of her eye. She had half of her head wrapped up. But it appears to be healing very well. We’ll know for sure tomorrow after we get the stitches out and see what the doctor says.

I’ll pray for her. I once had a basal cell carcinoma removed and it healed nicely. You can hardly tell the doctor did surgeryon my face.
