This is exactly what the “social justice” crowd wants for America.
Ye shall not add unto the word which I command you, neither shall ye diminish ought from it, that ye may keep the commandments of the LORD your God which I command you. (Deuteronomy 4:2)
What SJWs do not understand is that the restrictions imposed by the Bible they so revile are the only things keeping them from being thrown on a funeral pyre...
“The Chinese Communist Party instructed the Bible and other religious texts to be rewritten...”
I’m sure God will get right on it.(Sarc)
hmm sounds familiar
Yes, I am sure he will. 👎 God is probably looking down at these dorks, and just shaking his head, thinking they are delusional. 🤗
You know I wrote in a post the other day that received some controversy that both The Bible and The Constitution are dead, long live both.
Some understood and some with good reason didn’t.
What I meant was the words of the Bible are not open to modern translation by every generation or by dems to warp it to their sick needs.
The words are not to be changed and the constitution, just like the Bible, is not a breathing and living document, like bill clinton said it was. That’s code word for saying “we can alter it.”
We can’t.
One is the Word of God and I believe the other is the word of man inspired by God.
Both mean what they say and say what they mean.
But Deuteronomy says it in a much better and classier way than I could ever hope to.
His and their principles/values/morals (Righteousness) are immutable and eternal, but they are very much alive in that they can be applied to everything eternally. In fact, as we know, humans and the things they create which are not conformed to God's Righteousness die...so as God says, He is the only Way to real life--eternal life.
Also, as you said, the Constitution is written by man but inspired by God. Therefore it can and should be amended where we find that man has erred in conforming it perfectly to God and His Word.
One final note.
The Bible is also alive in that God speaks to us through it literally. He seems to inspire us as we read His Word...like the Bible is a living Transmitter of His Righteousness and Love.
China didn’t get much pushback from outside the country about their treatment of the Uighers, so they decided to expand their policies to other religions.
Re-writing the Bible? Good luck with that.

At some point it will probably happen right here in the good ol US of A.
Is that photo for real? All too accurate, if so. Bergoglio the Marxist has done everything he can to destroy the Catholic Church and Christians in general in China and hand them over to the Communists. And the Chinese know it.
It's time the Chinese people experience true freedom.
NOTE: chicoms as in members of their communist slime party.
Yep, some guys in Italy carried it although I believe it was satire.
No doubt. Probably has already begun
WWBD? What Would Buddha Do?
