Well stated and I totally agree!

“The Bible is truth that is written & inspired by the Creator of Truth.

Why would any person who wishes to be informed not want truth?
Unless, of course, you hate the truth. In which case, your post makes sense and you’ve shown your cards.”

This isn’t a liberal message board. I don’t want this posted.

Nothing like a woman pastor or faux conservative posing as a Christian trying to give us ‘advice’.

We are told time & again to not be deceived and sure enough, the wolves are everywhere you look these days.

I believe you were responding to post 5 in your #6. Which you can see triggered an array of responses (mine included).

The message & messenger of the article is garbage, but I’m of the opinion (along with many others) that we should be exposing the heretics and faux conservatives - like Chris Thurman.

My response to you was your response to #5. Thought you had a problem with Scripture being posted.

Another verse just occurred to me.

We need to be very vigilant in these days testing what is being said by those claiming to be “spiritual teachers” like Chris Thurman is doing here.

2 Timothy 4:3-4

3 For the time will come when people will not put up with sound doctrine. Instead, to suit their own desires, they will gather around them a great number of teachers to say what their itching ears want to hear. 4 They will turn their ears away from the truth and turn aside to myths.

Yep. We all know that Hillary would have been Obama Phase III.

A positive character trait? He recognizes our enemy and pokes a thumb in his eye for us. That is very generous.

If this fool considers Trump an evil man, and fails to recognize that the Democratic party consists of nothing but evil men, at least at the top, then nothing that he says about morals has any meaning.

"Dr." Thurman s basic premise:

"... the fact that he is a deeply mentally and morally disturbed person..."

is nothing more nor less than that which a Texan scrapes off his boots after he exits the bovine corral.

Yes, he’s obviously a Democrat.

With no problem with Hillary or Barack.

Tells you all you need to know about him.

I would like to challenge Brown and the others who criticized the op-ed I wrote to come up with one positive character trait Trump possesses. Just one. Remember, I’m not talking about the good things he has done. Doing a good thing doesn’t automatically mean there is an underlying positive character trait in play. I’m talking here about a positive trait — something good about his character that shows up in his actions on a regular basis.

Please, take me up on my challenge. Give me one single example of a true positive trait in our current president.

This is a challenge the Democrat will always win, for the simple reason that the journalism cartel always portrays Democrats as Mother Thersa and Republicans as Simon Legree. It means nothing.

You want to avoid talking about things he’s has done, because on that field, substance matters and press clippings don’t. Spare me the “good intentions” dodge.

Amen! These are those days where hardly anybody heeds sound doctrine.

Jesus in His Olivet Discourse was adamant about us not being deceived by sophistry or cunning words, as Chris Thurman is spouting in this article.

Matthew 24:4
Mark 13:5
Luke 21:8

Keep praying & looking up FRiend!

Don’t know who this guy is, but his arguments are entirely opinion. He must be a self-acknowledged “intellectual.”

So just what other viable candidate does he think evangelicals should have supported and should now? One who supports abortion, pro-homosexual extortionists, is against Bible Christians, and Israel, etc. and overall would sail this nation more to the Left? Talk about being foolish.

No. I just mentioned that women pastors seem to be ‘in style’ these days with all of their “knowledge” and “Biblical Expertise”.

I’d place Paula White in the same category as Chris Thurman or Russell Moore from the SBC. All heretics.

I find these authors, Thurman & Brown to be two sides of the exact same coin.

They are so busy sniffing their own fart and yelping about the speck that they imagine might possibly be in someone else's eye that they overlook the fact they can not see anything because they have poked out their own eyes.

Both should be ignored as they both tend to promote vain imaginings rather then anything that remotely resembles reality.
