Does the Gaza Strip Really Want to Join Russia?
But with the various blogs, news, and opinion sites, there’s a great deal to choose from and it doesn’t take all that long to vet the information. In this latest case, only days after Crimea voted to secede from Ukraine and join with Russia, word is that now Russians in the Gaza Strip want to do the same thing. Russians in the Gaza Strip? I was’t aware that there were enough Russians worth counting there. But apparently, Russia is willing to defend them.
While Jesus was Peaceful and Loving, was He a Pacifist? Pt 2
In essence, the commandment based on the Mosaic Law of Exodus 20 actually states and means, “Thou Shalt Not Murder.” But look at how convoluted and confused things have become today. More people are being arrested for defending their homes and the people who live there from intruders. Do a search of the Internet to read one story after another. What’s the message? In liberal states where they are trying to outlaw guns, don’t think that you can use a gun to defend yourself in your home when someone breaks in and has a gun of their own.
While Jesus was Peaceful and Loving, was He a Pacifist? Pt 1
Here in the U.S., the culture is western. We don’t speak Koine Greek or Hebrew. We do not understand the Jewish mindset or culture. Because of that, we can easily miss the meaning of Scripture because we simply aren’t familiar with Jewish idioms, or Hebrew poetic language. Not knowing these things can be a roadblock in truly understanding God’s Word.
Liberal leftists can always be counted on to add nothing to the conversation
The real issue is the heart. People kill people with knives, baseball bats, rocks, and more. A recent knife attack in China left 27 people dead and 109 injured, many more than were killed or injured in the Sandy Hook tragedy.
Beware the Internet troll or liberal who simply attacks
Liberals don’t really care if they “win” or not. To them, they always win, even when they lose. It’s like debating with Rep. Sheila Jackson-Lee, who routinely makes absolutely ridiculous statements like the Constitution being 400 years old as she recently did. Even though that is wrong, we will never hear her amend her statement or say that it was wrong. If she says anything, it will be to reinforce what she said, or her aids will come to her rescue and provide a reason why she said what she said, but that she was not wrong in saying it. She’s done this many times in the past as well.
Muslim college student: Yep, he had a Molotov cocktail, but nope, he wasn’t a threat
Molotov cocktails are often referred to as the petrol bomb or the poor man’s bomb. Take a bottle (any bottle), fill it with flammable liquid, place a rag into the neck of the bottle so that it reaches the liquid, but some length of the rag hangs out over the outside of the bottle. Then, light the rag that is hanging outside the bottle, and throw. Once the bottle hits the ground, it normally explodes into a burst of flames. Unfortunately for Akhshabi, it can also explode in your hand before you get a chance to throw it, which causes one to wonder why he lit it inside his apartment? Is there a reason other than using it as a bomb why anyone would have a Molotov cocktail? I can’t think of one.
Jesus knew that handing out freebies creates dependency in people
Jesus obviously realized what was happening. The next verse tells us, “Perceiving then that they were about to come and take him by force to make him king, Jesus withdrew again to the mountain by himself.”
Breaking News: Russia to declare ‘Force-Majeure’?
Also today, Interfax is reporting that “a Crimea lawmaker has indicated that Kiev won’t be able to block referendum where Crimea has indicated overwhelmingly that they wish to become part of Russia.
Puppet for elite Obama condemns Putin for Ukraine maneuvers
According to one source, “The Ministry of Defense (MoD) is reporting today that President Putin has ordered the Western Military Districts air-defenses to proceed into an immediate war footing posture in response to the unprovoked, and illegal, NATO aggressions against Russia bringing the United States and Russia even closer to direct conflict than at any time since the 1983 Autumn Forge Crisis that was ‘moments away’ from causing a nuclear Armageddon.”
Four horns and four smiths in Zechariah 1 represent what?
For instance, Assyria conquered parts of the Northern Kingdom of Israel in the mid-8th century. Eventually, by 722 BC, Samaria fell to Assyria. However, what the Bible calls the Times of the Gentiles did not actually begin until Nebuchadnezzar’s Babylonian Kingdom. Some argue that Babylon defeated and replaced Assyria. Continuing on, they argue that the Medo-Persian Empire conquered and replaced Babylon. In this way, Medo-Persia was a horn, but also served as a craftsman, conquering Babylon. Greece came next, conquering Medo-Persian rule, etc.
