Sometimes its just as James puts it

James 1:9 Let the brother of low degree rejoice in that he is exalted

James 1:10 But the rich, in that he is made low: because as the flower of the grass he shall pass away.

1 Ti 6:3 If any man teach otherwise, and consent not to wholesome words, even the words of our Lord Jesus Christ, and to the doctrine which is according to godliness;

1 Ti 6:4 He is proud, knowing nothing, but doting about questions and strifes of words, whereof cometh envy, strife, railings, evil surmisings,

1 Ti 6:5 Perverse disputings of men of corrupt minds, and destitute of the truth, supposing that gain is godliness: from such withdraw thyself.

1 Ti 6:6 But godliness with contentment is great gain.

1Ti 6:7 For we brought nothing into this world, and it is certain we can carry nothing out.

1 Ti 6:8 And having food and raiment let us be therewith content.
I know several Christians in India who went on mission trips and suffered attacks from Hindus, it's not just Islam that hates Christians.
Of course, not all Hindus are that way. I worked with one and she was very religiously Hindu. Course we were friendly, but faith issues did come up over Christ whenever we talked about our faiths. She actually had large blue idols in a worship room in her house, I saw them. She had heard the gospel from her uncle and rejected it. She considered Christ another avatar for God and was unhappy I had told her she needed to believe only in Christ, not these other blue idols of Gods or she was going to hell.

It shows idolatry in the form of idols in various cultures

Acts 17:16 Now while Paul waited for them at Athens, his spirit was stirred in him, when he saw the city wholly given to idolatry.

And he reproved this saying

Acts 17:29 Forasmuch then as we are the offspring of God, we ought not to think that the Godhead is like unto gold, or silver, or stone, graven by art and man's device.

This was a time of ignorance God winked at

Acts 17:30 And the times of this ignorance God winked at; but now commandeth all men every where to repent

Acts 17:31 Because he hath appointed a day, in the which he will judge the world in righteousness by that man whom he hath ordained; whereof he hath given assurance unto all men, in that he hath raised him from the dead.

Romans 1:5 By whom we have received grace and apostleship, for obedience to the faith among all nations, for his name

These turned from the same

1Thes 1:8 For from you sounded out the word of the Lord not only in Macedonia and Achaia, but also in every place your faith to God-ward is spread abroad; so that we need not to speak any thing.

1Thes 1:9 For they themselves shew of us what manner of entering in we had unto you, and how ye turned to God from idols to serve the living and true God

These arent being shown as those who turned from these things here

Rev 9:20 And the rest of the men which were not killed by these plagues yet repented not of the works of their hands, that they should not worship devils, and idols of gold, and silver, and brass, and stone, and of wood: which neither can see, nor hear, nor walk

are there reflections here with Putin?

There you go again... NOT thinking quietly! laughing.gif




You're flat out ignoring all the evidence in scripture and human Christian history

The way I read you, you are victim blaming suffering persecuted Christians for lacking in faith.
And saying your perfect with God so will never experience any tribulation.

No problem... I run across folks that don't believe God's promises all the time.

They claim to be believers... but they don't believe



I know several Christians in India who went on mission trips and suffered attacks from Hindus, it's not just Islam that hates Christians.

This is why it's best to let people from those communities evangelize their own community.

Outsiders coming in often get attacked even when they are there to help with things not related to the Gospel such as infrastructure projects and health care services.

And those that do not thirst and hunger for righteousness really shouldn't be preached to in person because they have no desire to know the Truth and as such one is generally wasting their time talking to those that aren't hungry for Truth

I learned this trying to witness to catholics... they think their religious cult is true so very few of them will every accept the Truth, get born again and go to Heaven.... because they love their cult more than the Lord which is why the are blind just like the hindus, the muzlims, mormons, JWs, etc, etc

God never told us to try and force the Truth on anybody... we are to declare the Truth and once they reject it we need to move on to someone else. Still pray and believe the Word of God that was shared will grow and produce fruit... but move on.

My sales territory, based out of Tampa, included all of Canada. The joke was that I was the only nutcase with a heavy sheepskin coat in Tampa airport while the tourists were in shorts and tee shirts while landing in the Spring. .

My Rep in Quebec was a Separatist. I told him ...."The only thing you have in Quebec is Hydro Quebec and Syrup .....otherwise nothing. This is really simple ....Separate from England and Canada. We'll come up and defeat you in days. Choose the summer, because we'll turn off the lights. You'll surrender in days and we will repair what we brought down.

But to do this ......You have to speak English ....Not French. Though I've been to every Province and every Electric Utility ......other than the history and all the open spaces .......these wacko environmentalists are worst than Californians. Look it's not working for California, why make things worse? I like the trade idea though. Give them California, Oregon and Washington.

Denmark has been ripping families apart in Greenland using parental competency tests written in Danish!

Now the policy is abandoned.

The Danish government has announced that Greenlandic families will no longer be required to undergo the ‘forældrekompetenceundersøgelse’ (FKU), a parental competency test used to determine whether parents are deemed fit to raise their children. While the test is reportedly easy to pass, it poses significant challenges for Greenlanders who are not fluent in Danish and includes cultural biases. Children can be removed from their parents if they fail the test.


Denmark change to parental test in Greenland​

The test assesses parents on various aspects of their lives, including how they react to certain situations, their self-perception, whether they have any physical or mental health issues, their outlook on life, and their future plans. “The main test was developed based on Western norms, which can lead to misunderstandings and prejudice,” the Danish Institute for Human Rights has warned.


The data supports these concerns. According to a 2022 report cited by The Guardian, 5.6% of children of Greenlandic origin living in Denmark are placed in foster care, compared to just 1% of Danish-origin children. “The tests do not account for potential language barriers or cultural differences, putting Greenlandic parents at risk of being unfairly assessed in child custody cases,” explains Louise Holck, director of the Danish Institute for Human Rights.


Denmark, which oversees Greenland’s foreign and security policies, has now decided to eliminate the test. “Concerns have been raised about whether a standardized psychological test adequately considers Greenlandic culture and language. For this reason, the Danish government and the Greenlandic government have agreed to abolish the use of standardized psychological tests in cases involving Greenlandic families when evaluating parental competency,” stated the Danish government.

This decision from Denmark comes amid repeated expressions of interest from US President Donald Trump in controlling Greenland. Trump has cited Greenland’s strategic importance for global security due to its Arctic presence, which plays a critical role in future geopolitics and trade routes. Greenland is also rich in untapped minerals and rare earth elements, resources becoming increasingly accessible as melting ice exposes them gradually.
One particularly notable case was that of Keira Alexandra Kronvold, an Inuit woman whose child was taken away by authorities just two hours and fifteen minutes after she underwent the parental competency test following childbirth.

Funny that Denmark would play that tune, that the Human rights Mob would have to get involved, for Denmark is a full on Socialist Country !

Wow! Trash talking to your business associates. Amazing!

Now when you tell him about Jesus he'll tell you to go jump in the lake clueless-doh.gif




Hay man... this is a family forum!

Sounds like a good reason for the US to just send about 25 Marines there and take them over!
Denmark cannot defend Greenland anyway so it we don't take them over china or russia will

No need to pay for anything since Greenlanders would rather be with the US than Denmark.

It's not like Greenland can do anything about it coffee-smiley.gif

American Senator Bernie Sanders took issue with the faith of a man then President Trump nominated to his cabinet. There's no religious test to enter public office in America.
Bernie praises Socialism as an ideal working model for a future America. As he owns 3 mansions. And prior to entering public office never held a job and was on welfare.

Socialism is slavery through dependence.

AOC is Bernie's protege.Many in power in America are all for Socialism.

Have you ever noticed? In Socialist countries their leadership want for nothing.
Socialism is slavery. Bernie Sanders can move to Venezuela and take AOC with him!

Here is a very interesting sermon that exposes the dangers of socialism.

Denmark in 'crisis mode' over Greenland and US demands.

This is not just Trump wanting Greenland, the US military generals are also telling Trump it's vital to national security to control Greenland to offset Russia and China arctic plans. So, you may wake up one day and hear the US has taken Greenland.

I have also heard that Putin will not object to US taking Greenland. Putin also wants just the US and Russia to negotiate the end of the war, no other European countries to be involved. And that Russia will NOT give up any territory.

But of course. Take it by force if needed. Greenland doesn’t want to be part of the US.

He really shouldn’t have been elected, but here we are.

Hopefully, these four years will go quick!

No, not all of us think it was a blessing.
No need to repost that fact as you speak for yourself again.

Sure,you're not a fan. Yet,you will benefit from the policies snd other things that Trump makes possible.

Sure, if by higher prices on food, gas and everyday items as a benefit of his policies, I guess you have a point.

So, in the same vain, you all benefited from the policies and other things that Biden made possible. The door does swing both ways after all.

No. Biden wasn't reelected. Trump was.

No,we suffered. We didn't benefit.

I'll not continue to engage TDS.

CNBC video, the race to acquire Greenland, primary goal is to contain Russian naval threat. To thwart Chinese and Russian arctic influence and control.

And stopping their influence and control is good for US national security as well as the world.

Greenland is very weak so China / Russia can easily take it over by force so it would be better for all if the US took over Greenland before the chicons or the russians do
