    Fools Miscalculate God's Blessing

    It's always sad to see people thank God for things God actually condemns. This happens so often. I was happy to see a pastor rebuke this.

    I've seen trans track runners point to God after winning. God, obviously, has no use for them. We know Catholic priests bless pets and wine. They should know better. Some Democrats end their speeches with, "God Bless America." NO! And don't get me started on "preachers" that bless homer weddings. God-haters that invoke Him think they outsmart God Almighty.

    Miscalculating God's blessing can be a recipe for disaster

    Isaiah 24:1-3 Behold, the LORD maketh the earth empty (2)...as the taker of usury, so with the giver of usury to him. (3) The land shall be utterly emptied, and utterly spoiled: for the LORD hath spoken his word.

    (sentence #2) When I look at my wife and children, I cannot believe they are mine.

    Whose does he think they are? In another thread we've been looking at the role of prudent matrimonial arrangements. Not all options are beneficial for Christian families. It's easy enough to look at, say, the specimen shown [right] and think, “I cannot believe that is my son-in-law.” Or even one's hope and joy fallen into heathenism: “Yikes! Is that really mine?”

    God's standard is clear. Now if the author had seen his family and thought, “Zounds! Do I ever hate them!” that would accord with Luke 14:26. But he'd still know who they were. (Or at least believe they were his family even if they weren't.) The piece continues:


    . . . This is why dating couples choose to seek intimacy (which is good) by defiling their marriage bed (Heb. 13:4)


    Hebrews 13:4 Marriage is honourable in all, and the bed undefiled: but whoremongers and adulterers God will judge.

    "Dating" was another topic but clearly it means very different things to different people. One thing in common is that they have no marriage bed – because they're not married. (Unless a married person was dating someone else, perhaps a homoerotic dalliance?) Again, unless one of them is married or charging by the hour, neither adultery nor whoremongering is an issue. I wonder if such fuzzy language is becoming the norm in this type of literature? For me, The Bible is very clear in its message and needs no explanation. For others, imprecision of language in these publications acts as a portal to ever greater error. The example from Hebrews is a good example of that, when there were so many others to choose from.

    Thank you for bringing this to our attention.

      Oh, these "trans" people make my righteous blood boil, dear Brother Mayor Hold. And, what's more important is that they make the of boil, too! What is wrong with people accepting the gender that the dear gave to them? The answer to that is: NOTHING! But, these sinful people are -bent on going against the Word of the Living !

      Genesis 1:27 "So created man in own image, in the image of created he him; male and female created he them."

      And, obviously, those two in the photograph are terribly confused (in addition to being on their merry way to !) I mean, just look at what they're wearing. A dress AND pants! They cannot make up their minds what they want to be! Is it that they are men one day when they wear the pants, and then women the next day when they wear the dresses — or both genders when they wear pants and dresses at the same time?!

      How disgusting! Is it any wonder that the good grieves?

      John 11:35 " wept."

        I'm detecting some radical leftist propaganda in the Christian Post these days.

        Failing to take refuge in the Lord inevitably results in misguided transgressions aimed at personal contentment and gratification.
        WRONG. Personal contentment and gratification is God's reward for His blessed few.

        Cheating can tarnish our pursuit of success.
        WRONG. Cheating on taxes is smart and wins you the Presidency.

        Pride can pollute our healthy desires.
        WRONG. Pride in our heritage is our greatest strength.

        Selfishness can soil our best deeds.
        WRONG. Oh dear. WRONG. Self-interest is the highest calling.

        Unfettered rage can blemish even our most fitting words.
        WRONG. We are unrestrained warriors not limited by the cowardly morals of weak men.

        And our pursuit of justice can fall short because of revengeful bitterness.
        WRONG. Getting revenge on the b*stards who invented the Epstein hoax and stole elections (even if we won them) is the very definition of justice.
        If I have seen further, it is by standing on the heads of others.

          I think it's a Hindu effort, going by the fashion choices. I take it the padre is seated, wearing his magic scarf. I have no idea who that is wearing the Dracula costume or why she's there, unless it's a 3-way wedding? Meanwhile, be thankful they opted for a modern look (1, 3 & 4 in the first example) rather than traditional diaphanous styles (2, 3 & 4 in the second example) for the blessing – and that whatever hindoo goblin idol in matching tones was kept out-of-shot.

          Is there anything the modernist clergy won't do?
