When churches get the Gospel wrong, they produce consumers of Jesus' benefits rather than disciples of Jesus' life!

It is jarring, how pathologically narcissistic this statement is, at the death of Colin Powell.
So how does this statement from the former President of the United States make you feel as an American?

Will someone please inform the "prophets" who are calling for a revolution in relation to government that true prophets are concerned about the revolution of the character of each human being regardless of political affiliations. That takes the Cross, and God's love, not hate.

If you follow the leftwing media, Trump did nothing right and Biden can do no wrong. If you follow the rightwing media, Trump did nothing wrong and Biden can do no right. Do you remember when the media simply reported the news rather than made every story into a commentary?

The church is always under pressure to embrace the American dream over Biblical Christianity, to align more with the way of culture than the way of Christ.

Note from God to church: 1) Until Jesus returns, there will always be evil in the world. 2) No political party can establish the kingdom of God. 3) All authority is given to Jesus. 4) In His name and power, go and make disciples. 5) Review #'s 1-4 on a regular basis.

Mr. President, people are dead. The Capitol is ransacked. There are 12 dangerous days for our country left. Could you please step down and let our country heal?

Virginia pastor defiantly holds packed church service and vowed to keep it up “unless I’m in jail or the hospital.” He has now died from COVID-19 nypost.com/2020/04/13/virgin…

Somebody must honestly be spiking the water in the church pipes with LSD if we’re buying into using the gospel OF JESUS as the biblical reason to ignore injustice. We’ve lost our ever-loving minds. Knock yourselves out. I’m no academic but I know a jar of nuts when I see one.

It’s a scandal that corporations are ‘persons’ in American law but 10-week-old fetuses are not. @mattleeanderson

The way @BethMooreLPM has been treated by men I once respected for nothing other than defending the truth of God’s word, preaching Christ crucified, and loving ALL people regardless of whether theirs theology aligns perfectly with hers makes me sad and sick.
