It's not a matter of what must logically be the case; it's a matter of what John actually wrote. Can you walk through the syntax of this verse and show my error?I honestly don't see the logic in maintaining that the possbilblty of somethiing occuring means that it must occur. Yes, an event cannot occur unless it's possible for it to occur-can't argue there. But if it doesn't occur then something has opposed that occurence, not rendered it impossible. That's what Augustine was getting at.
I was responding to what you quoted. Did you put it in the wrong thread?Yep it was big drama nearly ten years ago, and has nothing to do with the Epstein files.
Notice how he refers to Chris King as Christ King, you can't get greater than that.Your go-to response to calling any criticism or skepticism on the people you glorify (you even call Petrie and King 'great men'!) 'ad hominems' shows your lack of desire for engagement with ideas or even the very idea that you could be wrong.
What does people “look like” that are breaking the law?So your argument is that looks should not cause one to be arrested. The converse is also true, looks should not exempt one from arrest.
Fact is people are breaking the law. The argument that they were not committing a crime at the time of arrest is spurious. Their mere presence in the country without permission is a crime in itself.
If I look like people that are breaking the law, I would be expecting to be detained and questioned. But for the fact that illegal immigration is a rampant problem in this country, due to previous lax enforcement, Latinos would not be subject to questioning.
Bexar county voted blue which means that it voted for Harris not Trump,Crying citizenship and rights violations does not make crime go away. It condones and encourages it.
I live in San Antonio, TX. It is the most Latino city in the USA and we voted for Donald Trump because we are sick and tired of citizenship becoming a joke and illegals held up as martyrs
I have lived in Houston, Texas since 1977. I know the history of Texas.We love Mexican culture in Texas and are decedents of the Original Tejanos who were Mexicans that wanted to breathe free in the Republic of Texas. Yes Anglo brothers helped form the Republic, but Latinos were equal citizens. When it was no longer possible due to threats from Mexico and the failure of Mexico to recognize the Republic of Texas, we joined the United States to preserve freedom. We are proud of our citizenship and will gladly defend it to an officer of HSA in order to have illegals removed that would subvert our freedom
Been there many times. Love the river entertainment. And, I’m a centrist and an independent not far left.Come to San Antonio and see how many Mexican Americans are crying about ICE. We are not. It’s all left wing propaganda. Citizenship is a privilege. God bless Donald Trump
Y tu sabes Espanol o lo traducistes electronicamente? Yo soy Latino y el primer idioma mio es Espanol. Todavia no me gusta que la migra nos detengan simplemente por la apariencia o porque ablamos Espanol."Yo prometo lealtad a la bandera de los estados Unidos de America, y a la Republica que representa, una Nacion bajo Dios, entera, con libertad y justicia para todos."
It seems like if you had a really good sermon, you ought to reward yourself.I occasionally like to indulge in some chili dogs after church.
Bidens economy was a disaster that has pur us in this position. The over all inflation during his term was ridiculous.I'm not against this. I'm only wondering why you guys suddenly agree we need a stimulus. The American people are and have been struggling and this administration's economic and trade policies have only made things more expensive. Hence the sudden need to stimulate the economy. Some people in the White House can see the writing on the walls ahead of the midterms.
Can you see it too?
Okay, e, let's review. Paul Manafort did in fact admit to working with Russians given the Trump campaign. Trump's inner circle did in fact meet at Trump ToYou can have a spirited debate without being pugnacious.
There's no reason for anyone to make up what's already written.
Are you a truck driver?I'm a blue collar worker myself
Wow they went into this meeting for the purpose of availing themselves of Russian govt support for their campaign!....There's no reason for anyone to make up what's already written.
So your argument is that looks should not cause one to be arrested. The converse is also true, looks should not exempt one from arrest.Unfortunately that is not what is happening here. Not too many 6’2” caucasians being stopped for suspicion of being in the country illegally. But anyone that “looks” Latino or those that are speaking Spanish are fair game. Hardly a comparison.
That's coolThere are instructions. But we should both see that in the new covenant we who are saved are not saved according to our following instructions. It is with repentant faith coming to Christ. God is gracious, but would lead us, and it is desirable that we grow more, which is with learning God's will and doing what is for us to do according to that. Admittedly there will always be more to learn, in this life. There is much for it. If we assume we know all of it we are not open in the way to grow anymore. There is less reason to be left remaining here, then.
I still get a little angry when I read that people were so much more stupid than we are now.
Ford backs President Trump’s new auto tariffs, calls them a win for America
Exactly. However this is in contradiction to what you then follow up with...The blood of Jesus "renewed" our human spirit into His likeness, hence why all of us, male or female, are considered brethren. We wasn't given a new human spirit that we didn't have before, it was regenerated from it's fallen state.
If the goal is Christ-likeness, this goal was achieved at the renewal of our spirit. At that moment we were made into the likeness of Christ. It had/has nothing to do with our behavior and everything to do with our condition. Our spirit being in a fallen state, as you put it, left us separated from God in the image of Adam, the first man. Once our spirit was renewed, Holiness was achieved. You don't endeavour to become more holy, you are either holy, or you are not. There is no semi or partial with holiness.The goal for us is Christ-likeness. Jesus expects us who are believers of His, to do the same works as He did. We can't do that if we are dominated with sins in our life, hence, we have to have victory in our new-born lives over those sins of the past. For some folks, it can take quite a bit of time, but it is to be a continual climb in holiness with GOD. Holiness is spiritual cleanliness.
That's not how it works: stimulating the economy means increasing inflation. If the economy is good, then it doesn't need stimulating and more inflation. If the economy is slow, stagnant or receding, then stimulation is in order. If the economy is too hot, then stimulation will make things worse.If both the left and the right are in agreement that the economy is doing well and inflation has been eliminated, then stimulus payments should make it even better.
