In the NT, Christians did appeal to secular authorities , asking them to intervene. Paul appealed to his Roman citizenship when he did this. This may be the closest thing we see to voting in the New Testament. How does this inform our thinking on voting? In the New Testament, there are several inst...

You seem to think a stick can find water but a pigeon finding it’s way home is inconceivable?

I'm not mocking, as I've seen folks find water with great accuracy. But this just struck my funny bone.

I listened to it about half way the other evening. I agree that he dug pretty deep in finding the idea of uncut hair for women in the text. I plan to finish listening, but I expect weak-tea statements about men and beards. It is always interesting to hear clean-shaven conservative Mennonites, who a...

Now that this thread is sufficiently off topic, I will offer a theory about the clothing and appearance of Anabaptist men and how distinct they do or do not appear. I'm not sure the clothing and appearance practice of Anabaptists was ever designed around the concept of looking distinct. Much was se...
