Demand a court martial AFTER it lingers until the next election.

FWIW, my last direct conversation with a Navy Captain Chaplain was when I asked him why he didn’t ever close his prayers in the name of Jesus Christ.

He responded, his faith was so strong, he didn’t need to pray through faith in Christ. Such were his words and his thinking. I have faith there will come a second witness in time to his thinking.

I certainly don’t understand his thinking...in my mind it borders on apostasy. Does he ignore the advice of Christ in John 14:13, and unwisely deem his faith superior to a faith in Christ...it is actually ONLY through such faith that one can approach God. Christ is our high priest.

He needs to have a better understanding of faith, the reason and purpose of Jesus, and the “types and shadows” of the Old Testament.

Or else I completely misunderstand what he was trying to say.
