In our interconnected, corporate dominated economy we are all spending money with companies and individuals who do not share Christian values. I do not believe it is possible to exist in this economy and not spend money with those who hate/disagree with us. To be sure we can minimize it but I don’t think we can eliminate it.

Thank you so very much for making this firm stand Jim Robinson!

And suppose you find that you can shop Christian businesses solely. Well what if some are (e.g.) Lutheran but (e.g.) you have it on good faith from the Lord that those Lutherans are headed straight to hell? Well you then have to be sure your Christian stores are not Lutheran.

That is an extreme example that isn't going to happen and doesn't prove anything.

Etc., etc. The bible is very straightforward, even saying bless your enemies.

I thought it was pray for your enemies.

It’s their choice what they do with the blessing, not yours.

Of course it's my choice. I can choose to not help them fund what so many of us claim to oppose.

The only way to cure this cancer is to cut it out!

I think if you find superstar corporations (e.g. Chik-Fil-A and Hobby Lobby) you can make them your chief go-to’s, and that is the right attitude.

This is a different idea than boycotting, however. You aren’t boycotting Colonel Sanders; you’re patronizing Chik-Fil-A.

[El Cid]

Agreed

Might try actually looking it up. From the Master’s mouth. BLESS your enemies.

The other way is to convert it back to healthy tissue

To be sure we can minimize it but I don’t think we can eliminate it.

I've made that point myself on this thread. But as Jim Robinson pointed out "This is a war for God, family, country and we cannot afford to lose." Are we willing to act on that?

[TwelveOfTwenty]

That works for me.

The problem is the negativity. It actually makes you littler than the problem.

[RedMDer]

Amen! Never give up and never give in.

[HiTech RedNeck]

Instead of sillily offering God our private ideas of a “war for Him” how about asking God what His own war happens to be?

[RedMDer]

More importantly it works for God. The unbiblical negativity is gone from it.

God is perfectly capable of judging at the end. If He is longsuffering (and that means towards you too) is He wrong to ask you to dance to this tune?

I don’t think so.

[Renegade]

I’m too,old to wait that long.BTW,the way the country is going I don’t think repair is possible.

[ealgeone]

I’m good with all that.

[HiTech RedNeck]

Who ordered it to happen within your personal lifetime?

Also you really sell God way short.

[CrosscutSaw]

Amen.
