The Jews no longer have a Temple, a High Priest, a Sanhedrin, or a King. So, how are they to administer the Law? The Jews can reject Jesus and remain ineffective and not realize that the Law convicts all while Jesus redeems and forgives and offers the Fruit of the Spirit to all.

Viva La (O)Bam(a)

Vive La Revolution!

The current administration is bringing back the terror of the French Revolution by having an enemies list, by using the excuse of national security to break laws, and by intimidating various classes of people (military, police, fire, parents of dead children) into participating in propaganda events (whether they agree or not) - after all, if you do not go along, then you are not a proper citizen.

What's missing here is the notion that to not accept the God of the Jews is to be something less than what God promises and to deny the truth concerning human nature and the wisdom of God. The gift given to the world by the Jews is more than enough to allow them reign over a small part of the Earth except by such as the Muslims and the Church of Scotland.

Spending more and more and more money is not cheaper... especially when it causes MORE problems and MORE gov't. Choosing between two political ideologies is not the answer.

Yup!

If you're a thinkin' that you've got a good reason to not do as Jesus says, then you better stop thinkin' and start trusting and obeyin'. Maybe ought ta read The Lord's Prayer one more time? Even those who do wrong are victims of themselves and others and of the government. Are they worse sinners than you and me? Doesn't matter. Jesus loves me (your name) this I know for the Bible tells me so.

Does it allow for stealing silverware from the Bishop?

Ewww, you are tough. Tough as some nuns I knew. Tough as the guy on the Temple steps. Tough as the people who passed by the guy in the ditch. Tough as the brother of the prodigal son. Is that the Jesus you talk about?
