Its Dave here, from Bethany Baptist. I agree,the failure of the gunpowder plot has got to be one of the most important (non) events in Christain, and world, history. Imagine a Catholic Britain allied with Catholic France and Spain?? the only tea party ever held in Boston would have been when Napoleon dropped in for a visit with his Redcoat pals for a bit of colonial hunting. See you, fundy |

And I'm very, very guilty of it. Although I'm a conservative, I've been griping, quite loudly, about Bush for several years. But that was wrong of me, and by God's grace I'm gonna knock it off. And, by God's grace, some of the brethren are gonna have to knock it off when talking about Obama! We'll get lots of practice holding our tongues in the next few years. I'm not talking about serious, principled objections to policies; I'm talking about saying (as I have said) "I despise Bush," or jabbering about what a bad person Obama is. Let's always stand up for our beliefs, but let's try leaving the personalities out of it. When I gripe about Bush, in front of unbelievers, they have a right to say, "Why, those Christians are no different from me! They're full of resentment and rebellion, too!" I've been thinking about I Peter 2:13, 14 all week; but I had forgotten verse 15! Submit yourselves to every ordinance of man for the Lord's sake: whether it be to the king, as supreme; Or unto governors, as unto them that are sent by him for the punishment of evildoers, and for the praise of them that do well. For so is the will of God, that with well doing ye may put to silence the ignorance of foolish men. |
