@philipnation Calvary Chapel Lynchburg is a wonderful church if you have a chance to visit!

Flying to Lynchburg for some important meetings on Monday. Meanwhile, reading another book on the rise of AI and its impact on all of us.

Give your life to Jesus. He will rescue you.

@Danjo5string Ive been to indigenous communities in the Amazon Jungle that had the “New Testament”, but it was so poorly translated, I don’t think it counts. All that to say, it may be worse than the numbers portray.

I was given updated statistics today on Bibles and languages: Total known languages. 7,393 Lang. with complete Bibles. 799 Lang. with NT. 1,832 Lang. with portions. 1,514 Have no published scripture. 3,248

@JoshuaBarzon Depends on the church

Should a church have an armed security team?

@3YearLetterman Many things are becoming like this. Check Disneyland, airline tickets or even going to your local carnival.

I just can’t possibly see how these kinds of prices are good for the sport. You’re pricing out the kind of fan who has long been the lifeblood of the sport and makes the atmosphere unique

@gobamabraves16 @Braves @AtlantaDream I know she comes from an amazing family!

@Braves @AtlantaDream I speak for everyone when I say.. pretty much no one knows who this is

Leaders rejoice in good news, look forward to opportunities, and are honest about the challenges all at the same time.

4 Encouragements for Graduating Seniors: 1.Your identity is in Christ, not your accomplishments. 2.God’s calling for your life matters more than the world’s expectations. 3.Don’t drift from Christian community after graduation. 4.Whatever your walk of life is, follow Jesus.

@Biblicalman @iBobbyShell “Let your gentle spirit be known to all people. The Lord is near.” Philippians 4:5 You can be strong, courageous and gentle at the same time. I agree with your point in many ways, but gentleness is not the same as cowardice.

My son was the best behaved boy at the lunch table. He was also the one with no lunch. A boy twice his size took it. He said nothing. He used his words. The teacher pulled him aside after and told him he had done the right thing. The teacher does not have to live with him at fifteen. He climbed in the back seat that afternoon and did not say a word the whole way home. I had taught him this. Not on purpose. But I had. Twelve years of Sunday School drawings showing David's slingshot and never the skull it crushed. Twelve years of Jesus pictures where He looks like a folk singer. A house where Dad raised his voice once a week and apologized for it on Sunday. A pulpit that told him a real Christian boy is a calm Christian boy. He had been trained. He had been trained well. He had been trained to be eaten quietly. And David put his hand in his bag, and took thence a stone, and slang it, and smote the Philistine in his forehead, that the stone sunk into his forehead. 1 Samuel 17:49 KJV The slingshot was not a toy. David was not non-threatening. David put a rock through a man's skull at fourteen. Everyone tells you to raise a gentle son. Use his words. Turn the other cheek twice. Be the bigger person. They are wrong. Christ braided the whip Himself. He walked into the temple. He flipped tables while other men were sitting at them. He drove men out with a weapon He made with His own hands. You will not find this Jesus in your son's children's church. You will not find Him on your wife's coffee mug. That Jesus is not in the Book. That Jesus is in the marketing. Paul wrote to the church at Corinth. Not to the army. Not to the prison. To men in pews. Quit you like men, be strong. 1 Corinthians 16:13 KJV He did not write be gentle. He did not write be quiet. He wrote BE STRONG. Your daughter is watching you raise her brother. She is making notes about what kind of man she will marry. She will marry one who looks like him. And she will resent him for the same reason she resented her brother. The wolves are not impressed by his manners. The wolves are deciding whether he can be eaten quietly. Are you raising a son? Or are you training a target?

What we lose when the Bible is only on a screen: 1. You remember where the verse lives on the page and aids memorization. 2. The page shows you much more at once. You see the context, not just a few verses at once. 3. The page keeps your notes. Years from now they will still be there, in your own hand. 4. The page cannot distract you with a notification. It only asks to be read. 5. The page is something your children watch you open and they know it’s the Bible. The screen gives much. The page gives more.

@lsanger @caithness_gunni Nice way to respond to that statement. Honest and kind.

@caithness_gunni That’s pretty much what a lot of Protestants think of Catholics.

At a certain point, to remain protestant requires willfully adopting a false history.

God‘s word will never change. The reality is, those of us who know the Bible have been waiting for this time to arrive. These are no little green men coming to visit us but according to the Bible these are deceiving spirits and doctrines of demons propagated by a satanic power. That’s why they’re able to defy natural our natural laws of science. These beings are spirit entities, and according to the Bible, they’re will be able to deceive by manifesting themselves physically. You’ve had your entire lifetime to get to know your Bible. Don’t wait another minute.

@deaninserra God is on the move despite the many challenges.

This is incredible! Very excited about all that is happening across our network of churches. We are in a great time of global mission, church planting, seminary, and local churches.

@MattSmethurst Great quote

If you’re unwilling to offend others, you’re not fit for ministry. If you’re eager to offend others, you’re not fit for ministry.

@TexasPreacher Ken Hamm is a great blessing

Every time a Ken Ham tweet shows up on my feed, I think, now here's a guy not ashamed of what his Bible teaches. Reformed guys thumb their noses at him, but few have his spine, conviction, & reach. Same with Ravenhill, the YOUNG Billy Graham, Tozer, & many other non-Calvinists!

@_Johnblackwell1 Amen!

This is the day that the Lord has made I will rejoice and be glad in it 🙏🏾
