The death of Christ is foreshadowed in the Passover. The Jews had to choose a spotless male lamb and kill it. Then they would cover their doorsteps with the blood of the lamb. Then God would pass over Egypt, and those whose houses were covered in blood would be spared. /1

The more I reflect on the discipline of Christian ethics, the more I see justification by faith alone as both a biblical and logical necessity. When one takes stock of the moral law and our total inability to obey it and fulfill its requirements, the more necessary it is to see our salvation coming entirely outside of ourselves. Salvation is, biblically, and must be, logically, "Extra nos," as the Reformers put it—completely and effectually external to the sinful creature. Not cooperatively or conjunctively, but monocausally of Christ alone. If my righteousness rests upon my own merits and strivings, I will fail. Always. My conscience tells me this every day, for everyone must reckon themselves "the foremost of sinners" (1 Tim. 1:15). Only by a righteousness external to ourselves may we partake in a true, perfect, and complete righteousness (2 Cor. 5:21). Our ethics result in damnation. Only Jesus' ethics satisfy the requirements of a true, perfect, and complete righteousness that accomplishes salvation.

Isn’t this one of those tweets we’d be quoting mid season after we are on 5 game losing streak with Marco Silva

In a plot twist, the dems ask the court they say is illegitimate to rule against the other court they say is illegitmate.

South Koreans getting pregnant is almost as big a deal as Pandas breeding in captivity

now ask a child to share their toys lol

When it comes to billionaires my take is the opposite of Leftists: Billionaires SHOULD consume all their wealth: megayachts, English castles, mountains of cocaine, own a dozen homes and 30 cars - do it! Spend it all! The worst thing that can happen is for a billionaire to try to ‘do good in the world’ and shovel money to NGOs for some cause they get excited about. That’s the worst thing that can happen. Charitable donations should be taxed at 500%. A billionaire’s lavish lifestyle poses no threat to me but their misguided ‘good intent’ is absolutely cancerous and potentially civilization ending.

You could have paid me to tank this movie and I wouldn’t have thought of this.

Yeah. You're showing it right now.

@Bygones_24 Okay, I was curious.

@TheOneHanded many

The question is where is Ngong Bagas. Is Mbagathi river? Is it Ondiri swamp. We know Dagoretti is Maasai. Lenana Maasai. The most reliable kikuyus lived in Kabete. Waiyaki lived there.Gigiri was Dorobo. Uthiru Dorobo. Karura forest dorobo.Athi likely in Athi. Maasai statehouse cbd

@Bygones_24 Do you have sources on this?

Marurui had Maasai refugees. Karuri n banana was Ogiek or dorobo. What we can conclude kikuyu proper occupied Gatundu n Githunguri.Pioneers moving to Maasai n kalenjin speaking kiambu b Nairobi...as Europeans arrive.

I SPEAK FOR EVERY FOOTBALL FAN

These next two days will decide the future of football. If West Ham and Leeds win, the sport will have survived the biggest scare it’s ever had.

West Ham 1 - 0 Arsenal 93’ Diouf. Soucek

You might say casting a 5'1", 105 pound girl pretending to be a boy as one of the mightiest warriors in Greek lore is going to be this film's Achilles' Heel

“Jesus hung out with prostitutes” Yes, He did. And when asked why, He said “it’s the sick who need a doctor” But if you call the sexually immoral “sick,” liberals will freak out His goal was not inclusion, but redemption

West Ham have the opportunity to relegate Spurs and stop Arsenal from winning the league West Ham, please save Football.

A part of William Wilberforce’s evangelical awakening was taking on a strict rule of life. His rule really is commendable. However, my favorite part — under “moderation” — is limiting his consumption to “no more than 6 glasses of wine” with dinner.

He is going to eventually delete this tweet. But we must forever remember what a foundationally illiberal person Yglesias is. Whenever he in the future complains about this or that being undemocratic or illiberal, remember that he doesn’t believe in any of those things. He only believes in his side winning, whatever the mechanism.

Can you imagine a world like this? I bet Christian bakers would be forced by law to bake cakes for gay weddings

If you put all cattle together (including camels), we're the continent's biggest producer of milk...right? So why the hell are we importing milk from Uganda that isn't even real milk (Lakeside Dairy imports powder from Singapore, emulsifies & packages in Uganda, sends to Ke)???
