How congress usurped the Constitution and got into the land business........   [Hidden Content]

Nope...it's true....our kids were talking about it, too.......

  :lol: 

The dim infested congress of 2010.......

Last time I read the Constitution, the President didn't have control over taxation......the dim infested congress of those years raised taxes 11 times...the dim infested congress of those years decreased money given to mental facilities....the dim infested congress of those years caused us to go from a lender to a borrower........It would have been much worse, had President Reagan not been there to diminish the destruction waged upon the American people by the dim infested congress of those years......

    So how would that be any healthier for them than weed??? 

It wasn't a "comment", it was a question......:P   so in your opinion, drugs are less available to kids than beer???

  Have you looked at what's going on in the world around you???? 

    You ASSUME that I'm for legalization........what led you to THAT assumption.......

  What good has prohibition done??? 

God's Word supersedes man's laws......

You'll find the answer to that eventually......

If they stop and think.....even evolution, were it true, would have wiped out anyone who had the gene for homosexuality......bottom line.....it is NOT a natural state, as God confirmed in Romans 1......

His dad would have been one of the greatest presidents since the founding generation.......n

You are right....a LOT of folks do just that......however, that doesn't negate the practice of using examples from the OT to back up a point that IS Scriptural......

It can be backed up by Scriptures.....:p

you should not think of the New Testament Church in terms of a denomination....not being denominational with each congregation being completely INDEPENDENT from any other congregation, if some of them did that, they were sinning and going against God's Word...... Group of men like your "church fathers".....you are definitely not following what was taught by Jesus and His Apostles...... I don't have to show you why there are no instruments in church....you have to show ME where you get the authority to have them .....but since you probably have never read the Bible, I'll tell you where to look....Ephesians 5: 9, Colossians 3: 16, James 5: 13 just to name a few....NEVER in the New Testament where local congregations gather to worship, will you ever hear of them doing anything but SINGING....no instruments.....their example, since they were in direct contact with the Holy Spirit, is what we in the Lord's Church follow.....

  Christ founded the New Testament Church....He bought and paid for it with His Blood.....Campbell read the New Testament and found that where he was worshiping was not following God's pattern and decided to get back to it......he didn't "found" anything....you won't find any "segregation" in the Lord's Church......   You are not, or you would be following the Pattern GOD put forth, instead of what a group of men put together.....

  Alexander Campbell and the "restoration movement" have no connection to New Testament Christianity......as for the rest,  you got so angry in your rant against the New Testament that you became incomprehensible......(re-read what you posted....:) )....a Christian is one who actually HEARS, BELIEVES,  and DOES WHAT GOD SAID TO DO.....anyone not fitting that is not a Christian by definition....I'd say I'm a Christian who meets that definition......are you????

    Christ condemned the pharisees (good, religious, pious people in those days) because they were NOT following God's Law but had perverted it to fit their own feelings and needs.....try reading it, it's good and you might actually learn a little TRUTH........   Anyway, I see you are unable to provide any Scripture to defend Jorge or the catholic church.......I'd rather insult catholics and be right with God than vice versa.....have a nice day.......and if you want to learn God's Word instead of what some men tell you, Colmesneil church of Christ meets at 9AM for Bible Class on Sunday Morning...10AM to Worship God in the way HE showed us He wishes to be worshipped....and a Bible Class on Wednesday at 4:45.....all are welcome to come study with us with an open Bible and an open heart to what HE said........

:P   Anyway, GOD'S Pattern is clearly spelled out in the New Testament......anyone not following THAT pattern cannot honestly claim to be a part of His Church.....
