This is correct. There are people up here ignorantly using the "flight into Egypt" to justify open borders; no need for visas to cross borders.
Occasional Kotex......just flush it.
As usual, the Dems don’t know about the Bible... And Ms. Ocasio-Cortez competes with Maxine Waters as the dumbest person in Congress...
Don’t forget Sheila Jackson Lee.
When you’re an ignorant Leftist dips***, you just make stuff up.
Jesus was not a refugee but Karl Marx is a dead white male.
Please explain to me how Jesus could be a refugee for being born in his own country?
He was, from his own corrupt government, Israel’s deep state.
The Democrats of the day issuing illegal orders and assuming powers the Law did not allow.
You know, like her and her party.
Twitter is one of the worst inventions in the history of mankind. Followed closely by the 24 hour news cycle where we are bombarded by the same bad news every 15 minutes all day long. Lord help us.
Or, they want a new “Roman Empire,” bigger than the USA, to make such a thing possible.
Could following Twitter and the 24 hour news cycle be one of the worst uses of sight and hearing in the history of mankind?
I’m not sure if the reference to 6 CE was a misprint for 6 BCE or not, but regardless, it is apparently factual that Herod died in the year we consider to be 4 BCE. This may seem wrong if you consider that Jesus had been born for about two years before that happened. But some Roman priest in the 4th century tasked with counting up years to figure out how long ago Jesus had been born, missed six years.
The most likely time of the birth of Jesus was therefore in the winter that started in 7 BC or BCE as is now used, and ended in 6 BC. That is, if in fact He was born in the winter. Since the early church fused their holiday with the pre-existing Roman Saturnalia, it is entirely possible that Jesus was born in some other part of the year around 7 or 6 B.C. ... and since shepherds would most likely be out in the fields in the early spring to safeguard their newborn lambs, it may have been more likely March or even late February of some year, either 7 or 6 B.C.
I don’t know if that reference to the census is the same one that Joseph and Mary had to attend, or another one years afterwards, but that doesn’t alter this fact, that Jesus was not born in the year the early Roman church thought He was.
Another point of confusion is that some historians then recognize a year they call “zero A.D.” while others go directly from 1 B.C. to 1 A.D. ... when researching dates that are B.C., you have to be aware of whether or not the postulated date is in a zero-A.D. system or the other one.
I believe that the now accepted fact that Herod died in the year 4 B.C. is relative to the non-zero numbering system so it would be 3 B.C. in a zero-relative count. (zero being the 1 B.C. of the count that got to 4 B.C.)
That ignorant woman makes my head hurt with her drivel.
Stupid, ignorant and dangerous.
One could not call ahead in the Roman Empire to reserve a room in case of an imperial snap census, even with the best postal service available back then. Even if there were phones back then, it would most likely not have been possible to get a vacant inn room in such a case.
Oh the ignorance of this stupid female...
The LORD Jesus Christ owned the land ...He created it there is nothing that has been created that was not created through Him...John 1:3
You cant be a so called ‘refugee’ on your own property...
Plus I doubt that angels have ever told an illegal alien father to flee from Herod...
Take the young child and His mother and flee into Egypt Matthew 2:13
Whoo !!! Egypt ???
Then why are the illegal aliens so called ‘fleeing’ into the United States ???
Theyre going the wrong way...
She should be down on the border handing out maps..
This woman claims to be Catholic. She takes some of the tenets and leaves the rest. She doesn’t even follow the commandments doesn’t even follow the basic tenets of judeoantichristian Christianity. A lot of Catholics do this. In New York and in politics
. From the action institute:
Indeed, Ocasio-Cortez calls for the newly nationalized health care sector to grant “open access to safe, legal, affordable abortion … for all people, regardless of income.” This is a politician’s way of calling for publicly funded, unlimited abortion-on-demand – as, for instance, is practiced by Canada’s collectivized health care system. Pope Emeritus Benedict XVI has written that any politician advocating this position is in an “objective situation of sin” for which an unrepentant Catholic should be “denied the Eucharist.”
There is not charity in forced taxation.
And the poor will always be with us, especially importing a million a year who are in poverty without trade or language skills.
Socialist Norway requires you to earn $47,000 a year if you want to immigrate.
