Re: Conservative Anabaptists and Birth Control

It seems for a kingdom believer our blessings are not measured in earthly riches (including big families), but in treasures store up in heaven.

Re: Peacemaking after the Election

Those that haven't been walking the way of peace will probably not magically change after the election (especially if their favored party doesn't win). If we suddenly need to change into peace-makers after the election, then it is probably too late to keep our Christian testimony from being ruined.

Re: Presidential elections, for whom are you?

It may be useful in discussing the seeming decline of our political class to examine the Genesis of the two party system. It appears that every candidate Acts as though they will be different but once in power, to use one one of the more well known Proverbs, once in Rome, they do as the Romans. May...

Re: Presidential elections, for whom are you?

1. Are you voting, why or why not? No, it's not my role as a Christian to participate in the process of electing leaders in the civil government. I have been a fascinated bystander during the process, although I didn't watch the last two Trump/Clinton debates. 2. What do you think will be the outco...
