"As the very first commencement of every good thing, so likewise the progress, continuance and confirmation, nay, even the perseverance in good, are not from ourselves, but from God through the Holy Spirit" — James Arminius
I don’t usually talk politics here but I thought this link was worth a read. I encourage anyone who has not yet voted (and I must say that I think it ridiculous that so much of the country has already voted; it can certainly have an impact on those who have not yet voted) you need to read this article.
One, I am praying for the current leader of the free world, my president. He is not my Savior. My Savior through His surrogate, Paul the Apostle and Peter and others teach us to pray for those in authority and that all governments are of God.
Two, can I improve on this Scriptual Point? “No”, so, without further ado, the Scriptural Point that I adher too:::>
Mat 5:14 “You are the light of the world. A city set on a hill cannot be hidden.
Mat 5:15 Nor do people light a lamp and put it under a basket, but on a stand, and it gives light to all in the house.
Mat 5:16 In the same way, let your light shine before others, so that they may see your good works and give glory to your Father who is in heaven.
Mat 5:17 “Do not think that I have come to abolish the Law or the Prophets; I have not come to abolish them but to fulfill them.
Joh 12:47 If anyone hears my words and does not keep them, I do not judge him; for I did not come to judge the world but to save the world.
I believe I have God to thank for believing His Words are all True!
Good read Ben. Although I never thought the day would come when you posted a link to an LDS resource. 😉
Kevin,
I didn’t even realize it was an LDS resource. My mother sent me the link and I just read the article. Very funny. They are obviously very wrong about a lot of things, but they do strongly value basic moral Christian principles.
God Bless,
Ben
I agree that forced lending to men who cannot pay is economically unsound and probably unkind to the future debtors. But others suggest that the housing boom collapse is just a symptom of a bigger problem than just subprime, rather the inflationary dollar. I am newly read on some of these things, but the idea that paper money does not correspond to true money/ value seems wrong.
Here is an explanation, though I don’t advocate his solution (revolution). It is Time
Here’s a couple of things I would say.
