If you’ve ever wanted to know what is happening in the sky in Matthew 2 with the star that the Magi saw, the video that is only available at this website will explain everything that is happening. And yes, it actually happened exactly as it is described in the text. The price to watch the video is for you to provide your email address so that you can be informed of future videos, explaining other aspects of the Nativity based on this information about the Star of the Magi. themagistar.com

In the category of Hold music, there is only one good song. You know what it is. And yes, you also probably suspect that it was written by the guy who wrote the Goldeneye pause music.

@jaysonyork Every home-group I’ve gone to has basically been “Let’s get together and talk about how we feel.” That is DEFINITELY a negative.

Unpopular pastoral opinion: Losing the midweek gathering of the church and replacing it with “small groups” in homes on various nights has been a net negative for the fortification and mission of the church. There are positives, there are negatives. Overall, it’s been an L.

@raskolnehkov @TomHicks2LCF Both. In my experience, there is a theological fight between Arminians and Calvinists (going on for several decades) that is ridiculous, useless, and completely dependent on a poor understanding of metaphysical reality.

@JCalebJones @TomHicks2LCF The goal of Tom or Timothy's tweet? I definitely don't think it was the goal of Timothy's I think there's a good chance that was at least part of the goal of Tom's (tho of course he can correct me)

@JCalebJones @TomHicks2LCF I think his point is less trying to disprove and more to point out that a system having unpleasant implications is not itself a refutation of that system

Not new, but this is pretty wild. And yes, it is legit, discussed at a House committee meeting. US military fires missile at a UFO, the missile hits the UFO, and it bounces right off and the UFO keeps on flying, and IT APPEARS that the UFO continues to BRING THE DEBRIS OF THE MISSILE COLLISION WITH IT. Shocking Radar Footage Shows Hellfire Missile Fired by US Military BOUNC... youtu.be/WRHez7OXCS8?si… via @YouTube

What is the “it” that doesn’t work as wise policy, period? Christian nationalism? Keep in mind that the founders were 100% okay with established churches, and the so-called “separation of church and state” is a late-modern invention that has no relation to the founding era. Remember: There was a light FEDERAL separation of church and state (to allow states to have their own freedoms to establish their own religions), with an explicit and widely understood Federal acknowledgement of reality that the United States is a Christian nation.

Actually, this kind of argument explains why it doesn't work as wise policy, period. In a renewed Christendom, we'll find good Christian adherents to ancient branches of our faith with whom we - the Protestant majority - would disagree, vis a vis certain interpretations, doctrines, etc. History - and common sense - should show us that there are tradeoffs to such power being granted to the state. "The law killeth" - and should therefore be implemented sparingly, and only when necessary to ensure public protection from violence, theft, or outright wrongdoing. Such power never remains static, either. If society changes, those same powers can - and almost always are - used in ways unforeseen, and unwanted by the lawmakers. The Framers of our Constitution were extraordinarily wise in their understanding of how politicians and parties almost inevitably abuse government powers. Hence their limits, explicit enumerations, and balances of power, and so forth. The Golden Era of Christendom should do likewise. Until then, of course, we need to maintain our fragile alliances. Or witness a world of progressives in power.

In America, the black population is about 14%. The Best Actor award has been presented 98 times, to 87 actors. 6 out of 87 is about 6.8%, which is not disproportionately high overall. Since 1964 (when Sidney Poitier won) there have been 63 best actor winners. 6 out of 63 is 9.5% that is not disproportionately high either.

@joeroganhq It all makes sense when you realize the difference between and the balance Trump has to walk regarding the donors and the voters.

Megyn Kelly: "You cannot be part of the MAGA movement if you speak ill of Mark Levin. That's where we are. That doesn't hurt me at all… I will stay MAGA adjacent… Trump is going to further destroy his own coalition if he continues with this."

Megyn Kelly complains that no one is coming to defend her from Mark Levin's criticisms of her "Where is your tweet calling out Mark Levin? I'll wait" The only thing people asked from Kelly was that she condemn Candace Owens' vile attacks on Erika Kirk — something Kelly has repeatedly refused to do

NEW: Amid Cuba's national electric grid collapse, President Trump says he believes he will have the honor of taking Cuba. "I do believe I'll be having the honor of taking Cuba. That'd be a good honor. That's a big honor." "I think I could do anything I want with it... They are a very weakened nation right now."
Collin Rugg@CollinRugg

BREAKING: Cuba's electric grid has suffered a total collapse, leaving about 10 million people without power. The collapse comes after the United States imposed an oil blockade. Just last week, Cuban ​President Miguel Diaz-Canel said that the country had not received a shipment of fuel in three months. Video: AP

The doctrine of the Trinity is true, but it is basically a series of refutations of a bunch of heretical Neoplatonist ideas that were super-popular in the 200s - 300s AD. Those Neoplatonist ways of thinking are essentially dead. This is why everybody gets confused about the Trinity. We don’t even know the meaning of the terms being used, and can’t even grasp the concepts the terms describe. Your average pastor wouldn’t know an ousia if it bit him in the face, and your average Christian probably thinks a homoousios is a group of gay ousios. Talking about hypostatic union with modern people is similar to discussing nuclear physics with Roman stone workers. And that’s okay, because there aren’t many super-influential Neoplatonist philosophers out there, leading people astray.

This makes no sense. The existence of Israel isn’t a “strategic buffer,” as if the only way to travel from Pakistan, Afghanistan, Iraq, Iran, Kuwait, Oman, Yemen, Egypt, Saudi Arabia, Syria, or Lebanon to the U.S. was to have a connecting flight through Tel Aviv. Please give a better answer that is worth thinking about.

This is pretty easy to answer — Israel provides a strategic buffer between Islamism and the US. As we saw for the 1300 years we had Islam and no Israel, Islam was at constant war with Christendom, and Islam was the constant aggressor.

🚨 THEO VON: “I have a lot of uncomfort about America's relationship with Israeli political leaders … I do not understand Trump's infatuation with, or beholding to this government … And I don’t understand how our relationship with them is helping America.”

“There are many paths to God” is technically true—downright Biblical in fact. See Revelation 20:11-13. “The Door” through which you enter and your status when you get there is the path that matters. See John 10:7-9.

Also, the requirement of a woman being Jewish for the son to be Jewish arises in the 2nd or 3rd century AD, as a commentary on Deuteronomy 7:3-4 and Ezra 10:2-3, in the aftermath of the destruction of the Temple in 70 AD. See Mishnah Kiddushin 3:12. That makes the question moot and inapplicable to Jesus, who was born in 3-2 BC (in “the 28th year of Augustus” [after his victory at Actium, in early September of 31 BC]), per Clement, Stromata, Book 1, Chapter 21.

You can make a case that the Mary procession is idolatry. But I do not understand how you can make the case that a Eucharistic procession (which I believe is what happens inside a Catholic Church before communion is taken) is “idolatry” when Matthew 26:26, Mark 14:22, Luke 22:19, John 6:51-56, 1 Corinthians 11:24, and Ephesians 3:26 all equate the Eucharist with the body of Christ. You can disagree as a matter of interpretation, but you cannot call that “idolatry” when the belief is that it IS the body of Christ, because Christ himself said so.
