the human brain is a biological unit that converts energy into agenda. when an agenda outlives its usefulness, it becomes dormant, or continues wasting energy on the now pointless activity. if every agenda you once had is gone, you have become a different person

We are living in the final seconds of GODs time-clock for humanity, with SIN reining supreme over 'sound logic' & Godly wisdom, as according to The Holy Bible, this World, at present, belongs to satan, and his minions, with The TRUTH, being CHRIST Jesus, currently curtailed...until The Heavenly Father sees fit to deliver to humanity HIS supreme 'check-mate', being the return of The Savior of humanity, in ALL HIS magnificent GLORY, as KING of kings & LORD of lords, to reign over a New Earth, from a New Jerusalem.

How can you tell if someone is astral projecting on you? I had a Pastor, yes a Pastor who always seemed to know things that were said in private. Sometimes I would make comments about him in the car (because he was a very angry, controlling man) and inside me could "feel" that he knew and was upset about it. When I would see him a few minutes later, he wouldn't talk to me or even look at me and acted angry. He would say things from the pulpit that had to do with what I had said. I would also be attacked by demons at that church and after church at home during that time as well. He was a very manipulative man and highly intelligent. He would plant negative thoughts in people's heads about other people in the church. He was very legalistic.

Can anyone give me insight on this?

Their actions during the 2014-2015 school year affects my child's future directly through the state grading system to enter college and ability to earn economic security and a good job in her chosen veterinarian medical field of work, by being taught a faith base (evolutionary ideology) that just doesn't exist and has no math to back it.

Now to encourage us to respect His moral code, God has fixed it so that we end up suffering consequences when we go beyond the limits He has set for us. God says that our legal spouse is the only one we should be having sex with. He then fixes it so that if we sleep around, we end up suffering all kinds of negative consequences. Not only has God invented a whole crop of nasty diseases which can only be spread through intercourse, but He’s also come up with psychological and emotional consequences for sleeping around. Why do we get that “used rag” feeling as we build up a history of one night stands? Why does sex become less and less pleasurable the more partners we have? These are all ways that God motivates us to get back in alignment with Him. We don’t get to just do whatever we want down here. God tells us what we ought to be doing, and if we blow Him off, He makes us sorry.

Rather conspicuously, and as I've noted before, Jesus did not say: "At the beginning the Creator made them lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT). For this reason a male, female or shemale will leave his, her or whatchahoozie's father and mother, father and father or mother and mother and be united to his or her wife - and/or husband - and the two or more will become one flesh. Not that there's anything wrong with that."

Dependency and submission go hand in hand. When God refuses to give us what we want, we are forced to recognize our dependency on Him. Whatever that thing is, we’re unable to get it on our own. Chronic infertility is a classic example of this. We desperately want children, yet nothing we do resolves our inability to procreate. When all logical options are exhausted and everyone around us is giving birth to their third and fourth child, we’re forced to face the fact that new life comes from God and until He’s willing to give it to us, there is no way we can force it from His hand. To find peace in this situation we must embrace our dependency on Him and then try to submit to His will for our lives. It isn’t easy. It’s gut-wrenching. You don’t have the core of your being overhauled without some degree of pain. But is it worth it? ABSOLUTELY. The more we acknowledge that we can do NOTHING apart from God, and the more we submit to HIS choices for us, the freer and more joyful we become.

Evolutionists ignore other interpretations of the data. Unlike a forensic scientist who tries to look at all different angles for how the crime may have been committed and by whom, evolutionists are committed to their interpretation of the evidence. Few stop to question the assumptions of millions of years or evolution. Biblical creation—even if it provides a far more consistent and better explanation of the evidence—is automatically rejected because it doesn’t match with the starting assumptions of secular scientists.

During his show on Wednesday, Robertson read a letter from a concerned mother who wondered if her son’s mental illness was “God’s punishment” because she had an Ouija board in her house when he was young. Robertson replied that it’s possible because she invited demons into her home with the game, like a women he once heard of who watched porn and became possessed:

“I don’t know if God’s punishing you, but you can open the door to demons. There was one lady I heard about who was demon possessed, the demon was being cast out and the demon said, ‘I had permission.’ And permission was that this particular person had gone to a x-rated movie and had gotten all these sex things….so you gave the demon permission to come into your home when you had the Ouija board.”

[W]e now have discovered that when an object of a particular shape travels at a certain speed, it moves out of the influence of gravity into a higher law, the law of aerodynamics. Gravity remains, but the object supersedes it.

We have also discovered that when a person becomes a Christian, he moves out of one law into another. The law of life in Christ Jesus supersedes what the Bible calls “the law of sin and death.” The Christian lives in a higher plane: “For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus has made me free from the law of sin and death” (Romans 8:2)

Stop right here.

I think a whole lot of what I'm seeing is people lining up to condemn the Duggars and also other Christians for being sanctimonious hypocrites. I think people are getting satisfaction from someone who claims to have found the truth having just as ugly problems as the rest of us.

Now I understand that many people have had the unfortunate experience of people claiming to use Christianity or Christian values as an exterior to justify at attitude of judging others.

I grew up in the south and unfortunately there's an ugly history of people wrapping up hate in a pretty package. With all of that in mind, I can see how people might think "oh well these people believe they are better than us so it's good to see them suffer in their problems". Here's the thing though, it should be clear to anyone with a passing understanding of Christianity to see that if someone is authentically trying to live a Christian life, they are absolutely not the target of your frustrations.

Christianity is about humility, it's about forgiveness, it's about acknowledging first and foremost that I am a sinner, I messed up, I'm unclean and accepting that and knowing that I have no place to cast judgement on others. It's about the togetherness we find in being alone, unworthy, hell even unlovable in the infinite judgement of God yet still loved and by redemption through Christ we find a way to aim for something better.


I think this whole debacle goes to show that no matter how picture perfect your family seems, everyone has sin, everyone messes up, every single one of us stepped in poo poo. Christians are not above that and there is no Christian justification for behaving as if one is holier than thou.



There seems to be so much of other people projecting intentions and stuff onto this family. I think they have all shown shame, humility,and repentance and I don't think anyone is trying to downplay the significance of this.

It's just not helpful in anyway to anyone (especially the poor girls) to make this into a media spectacle and tear the family to pieces as a way to take a jab at Christianity
