VF I listen to Rogan from time to time but isn't he a multi/multi millionaire (over $200 million)? Not bad for someone who's stoned most of the time. Can you say wake and bake? |

VF 28-May-25, 14:57 <When is the last time you ever heard the criminal actions of the Federal government exposed like this?> I started paying attention to the political games played 50 some years ago. I've heard the talk but wait for the walk. We'll see how it goes today. |

Being born again by the power of Holy Spirit I have the mind of Christ which enables me and other Spirit filled Christians to be a discerner of what is good and pleasing to God while empowering me to defeat temptations of my flesh and to discern when others are not being totally honest and transparent. While conscious of Christ and desirous of being totally obedient to His leading I testify to the world and others of the truth of the Gospel of Christ Jesus. |

How would you say President Trump's walk has been targeted and unfairly portrayed by the DNC and the MSM? Wouldn't you say his walk has been spot on with his talk - as far as what the Deep State Globalists have allowed him to accomplish? |

Seems like maybe if you're feeling distressed over my "finger-wagging", then you are secretly guilty. According to Romans 2 / "Therefore you have no excuse, O man, every one of you who judges. For in passing judgment on another you condemn yourself, because you, the judge, practice the very same things." You're condemning me for "judging", what do you think your post above is about? Curious that you won't discuss the issues/ points I'm willing to call out/ expose! Ephesians 5 / "Take no part in the unfruitful works of darkness, but instead expose them." This is what I endeavor to do rather than nit pick other's POV. More importantly, and to the point, The Holy Spirit Calls us to Expose Evil — People Tell us to be Quiet About it "And this is the judgment: the light has come into the world, and people loved the darkness rather than the light because their works were evil. For everyone who does wicked things hates the light and does not come to the light, lest his works should be exposed. But whoever does what is true comes to the light, so that it may be clearly seen that his works have been carried out in God.” (John 3:19-21) cryingoutforjustice.blog Which side of the fence is Andrew on here? You can plainly see where I stand. |

From the article “Trump idolatry is a real thing. And it must stop” by John Wesley Reid Another way of saying, One is loyal to God or loyal to Trump. One reveres God or reveres Trump. |

@valley_forge <<UPDATE Sept 2021: I have come to believe that Jeff Crippen does not practise what he preaches. He vilely persecuted an abuse victim and spiritually abused many other people in the Tillamook congregation. Go here to read the evidence. Jeff has not gone to the people that he spiritually and emotionally abused. He has not apologised to them, let alone asked for their forgiveness.>> That’s where being a sin-obsessed, fruit-inspecting hypocritical Pharisee leads you, Frank. And that article you posted was from a blog about the sin of domestic abuse, not the “sin” of not idolizing a politician and not demonizing his opponents. |

But true worship belongs to Christ. He takes our mistakes and uses them for good. He takes our self-made idols and reminds us who He really is. And He takes a world full of people doing whatever they see fit… and He calls them back to Himself." From the YouVersion Bible study Pathways to Purpose / day 14 of 49 |

@ Victoriasas That notwithstanding what he wrote about exposing evil and protecting Godly Christian principles STANDS! Discovering ONE hypocrite Christian leader who happens to be in bondage to whatever is the cause of his chains does not justify or minimize the central issues which you’re ignoring. Nor does it display much Christian charity to accuse me like this! / << That’s where being a sin-obsessed, fruit-inspecting hypocritical Pharisee leads you, Frank. >> According to Ephesians 5, there is a distinction between engaging in or being obsessed with sin and exposing it. The passage advises Christians to have nothing to do with the fruitless deeds of darkness but rather to expose them. It is shameful even to mention what the disobedient do in secret. Exposing evil is encouraged AS A WAY TO BRING LIGHT TO DARKNESS, SIMILAR TO THE CONCEPT OF LIGHT VERSES DARKNESS WHERE LIGHT SYMBOLIZES GOODNESS, TRUTH AND RIGTHEEOUSNESS, WHILE DARKNESS REPRESENTS DECEPTION, AND SIN! Ephesians 5:11-12: "Have nothing to do with the fruitless deeds of darkness, but rather expose them. It is shameful even to mention what the disobedient do in secret." Light vs. Darkness: "Exposing evil is akin to shining a light on darkness, revealing the truth and bringing it into the open." This approach emphasizes the importance of discernment and justice in recognizing and addressing evil without becoming entangled in it. Andrew, how much effort have you made to expose evil and shine light onto evil and darkness and sin? Difference Between Sin and Evil gentleshepherd.com Why should God let you into Heaven? Bible verses about exposing evil It absolutely saddens and disgusts me by the amount of fake Christians in Christianity. Most people who call themselves Christians in America will be thrown into hell. They’re rebellious towards the Word of God and when someone rebukes them they say, “thou shall not judge.” First, that verse is talking about hypocritical judging. Second, if you live a continuous sinful lifestyle you’re not a true Christian because you’re supposed to be a new creation. I’ve even heard someone say, “I don’t care if she is a satanist don’t judge anyone” I literally almost caught a heart attack. biblereasons.com Bible verses about exposing evil encouragingbibleverses.org |

If you want to spend all day on here glorifying President Trump and demonizing his opponents, that’s your business. But don’t claim you’re led by the Holy Spirit to question the faith of Christians because they won’t join you on your political crusade. When you do that, you’re actually being led by Satan, who’s known as the accuser of the brethren and the father of lies. The fruit of the Spirit, as identified in Galatians, is… “But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, Meekness, temperance: against such there is no law.” (Galatians 5:22-23) Do you exhibit any of those qualities? If you’re a Christian, you’re no better than anyone else because a Christian’s salvation and righteousness are entirely due to Jesus Christ. IMO, you’re in the flesh way too much and trying to fuse Christianity with your idolization of a flawed politician. There are hundreds of millions of suffering people around the world right now. What are you doing to help them? Can they buy groceries with your posts glorifying Trump? Pay their rent with your rants about Democrats? Do you even pray for people in need? The fact you would approvingly post an article about an abusive pastor who wants to throw people out of his church because he doesn’t think they’re “genuine believers” says a lot about you. |

@valley_forge Do you realize you’re not getting into Heaven based on your commandment keeping and works? If you answered “No” to either question, you’re not a Christian. And your claim that a Christian is defined by anything other than the Biblical definition of one who believes in Jesus Christ tells me you don’t understand Christianity… “For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved. He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.” (John 3:16-18) “What does it mean to believe in Jesus?” www.gotquestions.org |

“The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.” (2 Peter 3:9) “Now we know that what things soever the law saith, it saith to them who are under the law: that every mouth may be stopped, and all the world may become guilty before God.” (Romans 3:19) “For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.” (Romans 6:23) “For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: Not of works, lest any man should boast.” (Ephesians 2:8-9) People who preach a false gospel of salvation by commandment keeping and works are sadly on what Jesus described in Matthew 7 as the wide gate and broad way to destruction… “Enter ye in at the strait gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat: Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it.” (Matthew 7:13-14) |

Bigots Speak From Prejudicial Thinking Donald Trump was raised by parents who identified as Christian. His father, Fred Trump, was known to support Protestant causes and attended sermons by Norman Vincent Peale, the author of "The Power of Positive Thinking," at Manhattan's Marble Collegiate Church. Fred Trump also took his family to see the Southern Baptist evangelist Billy Graham speak at Yankee Stadium. Additionally, Fred and Mary Trump, Donald's mother, supported medical charities and attended Marble Collegiate Church regularly. Fred Trump's religious practices were influenced by his admiration for Protestant ministers and his businesslike approach to life and Christianity. en.m.wikipedia.org en.m.wikipedia.org www.whitehouse.gov |

@valley_forge The issue is your questioning the faith of Christians who aren’t interested in joining you in glorifying Trump and trashing Democrats. |

Strong and very subjective language; Which does not represent the historical history of the American Republic. “Questioning Christian’s faith” who have failed to realize their responsibilities to positively engage and positively impact American political policies is nothing more than my pointing out there are Biblical principles and especially Christian ethical precedents in American history FOR the differences Christians can make who realize these responsibilities. Either Christians are aware and cognizant of these political policies or they’re not. Either Christians are going to step up and let their voices and preferences make an impact or they’re not. “Glorifying Trump”; This citizen politician has consistently and unwaveringly focused on implementing political policies which benefit the American people and America. Though the DNC have consistently and unwaveringly MISREPRESENTED President Trump’s actions and reasons for what his political policies are doing (While covering up through the FALSE MSM narratives which the DNC has never once criticized for their biases and misrepresentations but benefitted from the propaganda.) The DNC should be “bashed” IMO for their running cover for the Biden’s families personally profiting from their financial ties to the CCP. Several other illegal or at least questionable political policies of the DNC I have posted about because the MSM consistently and unfailingly fail to report and they actually misrepresent everything the DNC is doing and why. Christians used to be very informed and very active in American political policies because keeping those in authority accountable is a basic Christian responsibility according to Biblical and Christian principles. Politics which are sensitive to Biblical principles best govern in a way which protects the values and principles of not only Christians, but for all Americans who care about a just legislative and judicial processes. If Christians are NOT supposed to be involved in American politics such as I'm portaying them, where is the evidence for your opinions, sir? |

And do you really think you’re in a position to question any Christian’s faith given how you spend your time and your inability to admit you need a Saviour to enter Heaven? The fact you so flippantly treat a Christian’s relationship with Christ tells me you have no such relationship of your own and don’t love or respect God. |
