I got to too sweet @MachineGunKA and @The_BigLG tonight! #4Life #BulletClub

Christian generosity has nothing to do with your taxes. You as a Christian could support zero taxpayer-funded programs and still be considered a generous Christian. Christians are called to charity. Charity, by definition, is voluntary. Taxes are not voluntary. "Each one must give as he has decided in his heart, not reluctantly or under compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver." - 2 Corinthians 9:7 A lot of times you see these so-called progressive Christians referencing the early church in Acts as giving each other everything that they had to make sure that everyone was cared for as a justification for socialism. But these early Christians gave to one another empowered by the Holy Spirit. They did so voluntarily. They weren't forced by the government to do so. Supporting government programs that take money from one group and forcibly give it to another group is not charity. It's coveting. It's stealing. Forced wealth redistribution violates two of the Ten Commandments: "Thou shall not covet and thou shall not steal." That's why socialism never works and always ends in tyranny and misery. It's an ideology that sounds really compassionate. We hear, "Care for the least of these. Close the wealth gap." But it is always carried out in a way that is anti-God and anti-human nature. It is an ideology that is built on greed and envy. And by the way, outsourcing your generosity to the government is a sin. If you're not forking over your dollars to the needy until the government threatens you with jail, then you are an unchristian miser, not a bleeding heart empath.

“But Skeletor, what if someone is lying about their conversion? We can’t be fooled!” Do you or do you not think God is powerful enough to punish those who profane His name? You don’t if you think it’s your job. Let God worry about them.

@ericm1836 @Pat_Stedman God bless you and keep you brother.

@cms116 @Pat_Stedman This typical evangelical squishiness. Shown real life situations contrary to modern liberal Christianity, and get a Jesus juke.

This is exactly what I'm talking about. Total clown show. You think this is just a rhetorical device, but this is genuinely the sentiment many of these church women have. If you jerked off to tits on your iphone at some point you're just as depraved as a woman who went through a "phase" racking up bodies before she "found Christ." And the absurdity is that when his wife (who's half the time a former party girl herself) is married and sexually frigid, her husband's clandestine wank sessions become a moral hysteria. The Church rebukes HIM. These people neither understand nor care to understand the male perspective or experience, they in fact despise the male sex drive, and the browbeaten men "in charge" pile on even as they have their own clandestine porn addiction. Shame, humiliation, followed by prostration in front of the women and their henpecked enforcers for their "redemption" is the crux of their religious experience. The women have moral authority and judge the men, but the men dare not judge the women. Being a "spiritual leader" in this environment means emphasizing as much as possible your lack of worthiness to lead. It's all an inversion of the actual gospel, and little more than frigid feminism couched in biblical language. The fruit it bears is completely rotten. What's the incentive for any man to participate?

What happened to Jake Kail is wild. The fact that we have video footage of it is amazing because it’s such an incredible proof that Cover-up Culture is real. It’s hard to deny it when you watch it happen in real time.

@ericm1836 @Pat_Stedman Two things can be true: I can agree with teaching prudence and discretion and listening to one’s parents. But if those parents give advice without seeking God in that matter before handing out advice, they could be in error

Prudence is something taught very much so in the Bible. Seeing the fact that the divorce rates are very high for people with severe sexual sin, God is moving in the fact that he allows you to see these things, and using biblical discernment, and not walk into these situations. A biblical Christianity would teach these things, but the effeminate Christianity we have today shames men for exercising wisdom. One thing I did not mention in the post about my friend because it was already getting pretty long: He was dating a woman 14 or 15 years ago that he was absolutely crazy about. When they started getting serious, he shared his testimony with her. She sought her mother‘s advice, who told her about the risk of him going back into his sin, and told her not to marry him. She broke off the relationship, and everybody in our circles thought she was some horrible Christian. We all try to tell each other that she was being ungodly and prideful, “how dare she hold his past sins against him”, etc. We sounded just like the feminist and effeminate evangelicals all over America. Now I look back at that girl’s mom and praise her for her great wisdom, and her daughter for obeying her advice. She saved her daughter and her grandchildren from my lifetime of pain.

@Brandon93Smith This is such garbage advice and a way to get men out of church.

I’m going to give some big brother advice to young Christian guys. You’ve been told to not date outside the church. Following that got you here, and here sucks. If the church options are just “I’m ready for my servant leader now”, go date a sweet nurse who hasn’t been to church in years. The nurse will at least treat you as well she did the other guys.

Taken out of context without full quote.... and even so, without understanding of the direct quote from the bible this comes from, Galatians 2:20 I have been crucified with Christ. It is no longer I who live, but Christ who lives in me. And the life I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me. it is literally talking about Salvation, which even non believers know the meaning behind. It is a picture of dying to self and living in and for Christ. you are on the verge of Libel here.

If you keep purposefully sinning after becoming a Christian, God will remove his Spirit from you.

We saw a lot of this , this week didn’t we?

@ericm1836 @Pat_Stedman “The Lord lead you and trust Him in all things” No matter if she’s promiscuous or chaste, either thing doesn’t mean they will choose promiscuity later nor does it mean the chaste woman will remain loyal in her marriage. Yes there’s statistics but God doesn’t move in stats

@ericm1836 @Pat_Stedman I 100% agreeing with warning of potential risks. What I disagree with is people out here calling redeemed believers “whores” or “wolves in sheep’s clothing”. Young ment shouldn’t be chastised for not wanting women with promiscuous pasts, but I think the message should be

@ericm1836 @Pat_Stedman I mean if we go back to watch Jesus says, that if a man has hatred in his heart towards his brother, he’s already committed murder and that if a man has looked upon a woman with lust, he has committed adultery. The degrees differ, but it still comes down to sin before the throne.

Playing the Grand Theft Auto video game does severe psychological damage to a person that does it. The sinfulness that exists in a person’s heart that makes them want to act out robbery, murder, evading police, complete disregard for innocent bystanders, etc, and gives them an neurological rush does major damage to a a person’s soul. The distorted view of reality leads false expectations and other sinful behaviors. Doing grand theft auto in real life is significantly much worse, and has severe temporal consequences for the offender.

There's a reason why people across clubs, leagues, rivalries, race, religion.. all hate Arsenal fans!

@ericm1836 @Pat_Stedman I will say the impact on their life is vastly different but I do think it is equally damaging in measure.

@ericm1836 @Pat_Stedman So seeing hundreds if not thousands of women can’t be as damaging because porn isn’t I click on the first video I see, it’s the person scrolling until they find something they like and it’s hardly ever just one video, it’s an avalanche effect to where it’s a constant need.

@ericm1836 @Pat_Stedman I can agree we need to address current ongoing sin as sin regardless of sex. My issue is taking someone’s past sin and throwing it in their face saying it disqualifies them from being a good spouse after years of faithful submission to Christ.

@cms116 @Pat_Stedman No one is ignoring that same sense for men. It is in fact quite the opposite. Everybody always points out sexual sin for men being a problem, but never for woman.

@ericm1836 @Pat_Stedman Because that’s what porn is, virtual forbinicstion and it is damaging both body and mind. This is what people mean when they say it’s the same.

@ericm1836 @Pat_Stedman I have no issues with people saying there will be problems and struggle with this. I encourage it in fact. My biggest issues is there is two sides and one of them is insistent on that sin will always define a person while ignore the virtual form of that same sin for men.

i am secure in Christ and Christ alone
