God frames evil

That I live in a parallel universe?  ;D Craig - I'm making no sense - what I was trying to say is - change is everywhere - never seen times like these - social upheaval - call for accountability - banking scams exposed - you get what I am trying to say dear brother
Are these not God's judgments in the world now? I don't know - I guess I still have some church indoctrination to burn out and too many movies on rewind in my head  :-[

Dave in Tenn:
Maybe I'm just getting old, but it seems to me every generation goes through something like this...change the location, change the details, but the state of humanity rises and falls like the ocean waves through troughs of deep evil and crests of hope.  Then that generation dies and the next one learns little from it, except for some of the wrong lessons.  Hard to say what's next and where it might come from, but there's nothing new under the sun and won't be until we don't need the sun any more.

Still, the Lord has a remnant of salt and light.  Maybe it accumulates slowly over time.  I don't know.

Jas 1:2  My brethren, count it all joy when ye fall into divers temptations;

Easier said than done - But after a trial we can usually see the benefit in how it changed us.

Pierdut I'm so glad you did! :)

That is so true though... I was reading a "christian book" about marraige boundaries just last night. It actually has some good info about how we create boundaries in marraige to help serve and love our spouse but then they slip in stuff like...

"God created us with free will and He won't violate that will."  And I think to myself..... "OOOooooh WHAT A LIE, you got a scripture and verse on that?".  It's deceptive. THANK YOU LORD that He is pealing the scales off our eyes to see Truth. To see past the curtain and see "the wizard" telling Dorathy what to do.

It bothers me because my wife reads the same book, and I know she will just read past it and not see, being taken in by the false poo. I read this book years before and didn't think anything of it.

Pierdut, I have an Android phone and discovered SWIFTKEY. It's a keyboard for Android phones. It's the best I've tried. Check it out!
