Donald Trump’s primary election victory in South Carolina is actually a repeat of history. In 2008, John McCain won South Carolina which kept his candidacy going and led to him being the Republican nominee. South Carolina is an open primary state. So what has been happening is that people who are not Republicans have been choosing the Republican nominees, and we see the results. Of course the result in 2008 was Barrack Obama being elected as President of the United…..
Antonin Scalia’s death has sparked a hot debate. Ted Cruz has talked about not confirming anyone until our next president.1 Hillary has made the point that Barrack Obama is president until January 20, 2017.2 Hillary is absolutely right. President Obama has every right under the U. S. Constitution to nominate an individual to serve as justice on the U. S. Supreme Court. In fact, it is his constitutional duty. The Republican response should be: We will give President Obama’s nominee…..
Genesis 5:1-2 states “This is the book of the genealogy of Adam. In the day that God created man, He made him in the likeness of God. He created them male and female, and blessed them and called them Mankind in the day they were created.”1 This is a short text. But what a person believes about this text will affect their world view entirely. First and foremost, the text tells us that we are not evolved from some apelike…..
On August 28, 2015, a Harris County Deputy Sheriff was shot multiple times in the back. The “Black Lives Matter” campaign is being blamed for much of the recent violence against police.1 From what I have been able to ascertain, the accused murderer, Shannon J. Miles, a 30-year old man, lived at home with his mother.2 Evidently his father was not a part of the picture. Once again, I can see how our problems as a society would mostly go…..
There are several reasons why we lost the Vietnam War. There is a legitimate discussion about getting ourselves into the war in the first place. During the Korean War, we would push up into North Korea, putting the Communists on the defensive; whereas the Vietnam War was fought more defensively. The Vietnamese had a history of being treated badly by foreigners – the Chinese, the French, and the Japanese. And to many Vietnamese who did not know about political-economic systems,…..
In my posting “Ireland? This is what I have been talking about!” I warned about Justice Kennedy casting the deciding vote on the future of our country. I explained that we are in this situation because of the failings of church leadership to teach Christians that they really can believe the Bible! Now it has happened. We know what side of the bed that Justice Kennedy woke up on. Justice Kennedy sided with Sonia Sotomayor and Elana Kegan (two…..
But if I say I’ll never mention the Lord or speak in His name, His word burns in my heart like a fire. It’s like a fire in my bones! I am worn out trying to hold it in! I can’t do it! Jeremiah 20:9, NLT. These are the words Jeremiah spoke after Pashhur the priest had Jeremiah whipped and put into stocks for telling the people the message that they did not want to hear. The message from God was that the…..
