#ProsperityJesus strikes again. These carnival barkers have decimated Christianity.
“Fasting for TwoScoops” . . .
(. . . hmmmmm, I actually kind of like that, seems somehow 2018 appropriate . . .)
1. It is the duty of true Christians to pray for everyone, including sinners. We love the sinner and hate the sin.
2. Jesus told us to be kind to our fellow men, and I am through my church and many other private charitable contributions. Where does it say in the Bible that we must have a nanny state taking away freedom in order to "help" people who don't want to be helped? That's nowhere in my Bible.
You're right. It doesn't say that in the Bible. Where in the Bible is Social Security forbidden or the right of free people to enact legislation and programs that help the poor, provide health care for Americans, and protect their civil rights? Please site book, chapter, and verse. You can, right?
Uh, you need to look at the Old Testament a bit more, understanding the role of the government (as it was then tied into the religious hierarchy).
Or, you could take a look at the New Testament and its understanding of the role of government. Here's an intorduction from Jim Wallis of the Sojourner's community.
So, you read Dobson to mean “pray for our Sinner in Chief”?
I’m guessing your bible is even thinner than your counting primer . . .
Now, I suppose that if you would do that, you wouldn’t have to spend all those days and days and days trying to count your piggy bank?
. . . but, you do have that lovin’ the pussy-grabber thing down
FluffyTrumpnutz.Where does calling other people on this blog "Lawless Liberal Trash" fit your definition of kindnedd dudebro?
Also, you worship Trump so much that you commit the sin of idolatry.
Also, I'd like to thank you. I used to go to an evangelical church. Thank you for reminding me that evangelical Christianity is nothing but a cesspool of hypcrites who talk a good game about kindness towards your fellow man, but instead offer judgement, and authoritarianism. Our friendly fascists who care of nothing but accumulating wealth and power off the backs of others, while tjey seek to impose their will on those around them and tell them to stop thinking or questioning. You fit right in.
Where does it say in the Bible that we must have a nanny state taking away freedom in order to "help" people who don't want to be helped?
Really. How do you know they don't want help? Did you ask them rather than assuming it?
Since people like you don't actually help (whatever charitable contributions you make notwithstanding–I believe that's called humble-bragging, or maybe virtue signalling), someone has to, and in the modern world that someone (something) is the state, for better or worse.
Dobson isn't asking us to pray for all our fellow humans. He is asking for his followers (I am a Christian, but I take my lead from the words of Jesus and not from the Dobson version) to pray to protect the presidency of this particular human, who is an inveterate liar, has groped women, cheated business colleagues, taunted foreign leaders, likely colluded with an adversarial foreign government to become our leader, and has used his powers to the YUGE benefit of corporations and the wealthy. Abraham Lincoln would be in tears to see the depths the party he endeavored to establish has descended to.
As a reminder for you Moderatus: from The Magnificat (Luke 1:46-55)
….His mercy is for those who fear him from generation to generation. He has shown strength with his arm; he has scattered the proud in the thoughts of their hearts. He has brought down the powerful from their thrones, and lifted up the lowly; He has filled the hungry with good things, and sent the rich away empty…
Is this the sociopathic huckster for Christ who used to talk about how Satan, driving a black Porsche, chased his son around downtown Denver?
I can't figure Dobson out. Why would he want to keep the Screaming Yam when, if he gets tossed out or quits, he could have Pencywaist and Mother in the White House? I should think they'd be much more to his liking.
