There are an awful lot of people who are deceived. They think they are saved (know Him) but they are not.

That is, unfortunately, true.

Is this sunday school or a political blog? Keep your religious soapbox in the closet.

Everybody’s got an opinion, including me. And it sounds like Sunday school would do you some good. Thank you.

Some of these folks need to familiarize themselves with what “judging the righteous judgment” means. The advice, “Do not judge,” does not mean to be blind to sin and wickedness. The bible says, “Judge not according to the appearance, but judge righteous judgment.” John 7:24

Was the media announcing the Alaskan personnel board exonerated Palin? Duh, mute in Obama’s bag.

GO PALIN! Go McCain, GO GOP!

Alaskans are going to tolerate the “slow mental processing” picture that this board just painted on their state?

Yesterday I bought an Alaskan state flag. If the unthinkable happens and we are faced with an Obama presidency, I intend to register my protest every day of his incumbancy. I can’t think of a more fitting symbol.

Morning Drywall, if the allegations were brought up against a dimocrat, 9 to 1 says they would be true, but it would just get swept under the rug. You must be jumping up and down with glee to see the last bastion of conservatism being relegated to the trash heap. Don’t think you realize that this will not only effect us, but the consequences will also effect the rest of the world. Careful of what you wish for.

Some please deliver this breaking news to Andrew Sullivan.

Can I deliver him a punch in the face too?

This one’s going to be short because this was actually done on Monday night due to various committments during the day today. I will (or at least should) have a liveblog set up for the night. I will be working with the Sam Adams Alliance……

“At will employment vs malignant entitlement.”

Which one is a liberal concept and which one is a conservative concept?

Perhaps we should ask Alberto Gonzales.

Bravo, for common sense. This time.

Is it hard to get Depends up in Canada, Dave. You must wet yourself on a regular basis.

Next question.

Agree. Another media-contrived “scandal”. I don’t think anybody with two brain cells to rub together (eliminates most big-eared goblin supporters) thought this was an issue of any significance.

We are to use our spiritual discernment for, “he that is spiritual judgeth all things,” (1 Corinthians 2:15). That means we are to use discernment; we are to distinguish between the false and the true; but we are not to condemn others. Only the Lord can do that.

But isn’t that the problem? A whole lot of ‘spiritual discernment’ going on but without any spiritual awakening.

The Messiah said that in that Day, many will say to Him, Lord Lord. And He will say to them Depart from me you workers of iniquity (evil) I never knew you.

There are an awful lot of people who are deceived. They think they are saved (know Him) but they are not.

Any spirit can judge another spirit (cops do it all the time) but only the Holy Spirit can judge righteously.

Sarah Palin did nothing wrong in firing Walt Monegan, the Alaskan State Personnel Board has concluded. Their independent investigator criticized the legislature’s investigator for applying the wrong law. They also said that Todd Palin did nothing w…

Some also think that it means that we can’t make moral distinctions either. They are wrong.

That’s right. They seem to think that the warning to “judge not” means that we are to see, and hear nothing, and to say nothing. That is clearly not what Scripture says. We are to use our spiritual discernment for, “he that is spiritual judgeth all things,” (1 Corinthians 2:15). That means we are to use discernment; we are to distinguish between the false and the true; but we are not to condemn others. Only the Lord can do that.
