What is your definition of a criminal?

According to Miriam Webster

criminal, noun
1. one who has committed a crime
2. a person who has been convicted of a crime

That is a reasonable question Ken. Without the benefit of much thought, I would point out that my belief is in Jesus and the new covenant he revealed. That is why I hold previous covenants (Adam, Noah, national Israel) in lower position. Hebrews tells God spoke in many times and prophets but in the...

In any event. What makes one a criminal is committing the crime. Not being convicted of it. If you murder someone you are a murderer regardless of whether or not you ever get caught and convicted. Likewise if you steal then you are a thief. Regardless of whether you are ever caught and convicted. A...

By contrast, take a commandment that you mention nowhere and that is God's command to care for creation. It first appears in Genesis 2 in the Garden of Eden and then later in Genesis 9 with God's covenant with NOAA where God states that he will demand an accounting from every living animal and esta...

We have a variety of folks here that like to think through things and I hope this subject can be discussed in a mature manner and not get political more than it has to be. I was recently made aware of most likely the biggest drug problem we have in American in Kensington Philidelphia, which is clos...

… the “business records” case is about activity long before 2016. Which is why it’s rather concerning. Trump was a public figure and if this really was a big deal and the DA is also politically impartial, why wasn’t he prosecuted back then? You are wrong. The business records case is about Trump's ...
