Just to add, some of my thoughts, the corruption amongst those hating our government and support socialism and communism, or just using their elite status for financial gain reveals a strange alliance to their “idols.” Not figures made and worshiped like in ancient days. The ancient Word’s of G-d to “not worship idols” starts to make a lot of sense.

An ideology can be an idol even when there is proof along with common sense that the systems they are looking to, to “save” humanity do not work.

Confirms their alliance in the face of historical results is evidence of an ingrained form of idolatry.

One of their biggest idols - besides the lies of globalism, is the self, replacing service to others for service to self. It’s absolutely amazing how, in side knowledge of government decisions about to come down make it possible to increase personal wealth! A clever way of using the system that is not illegal.

It is not realized in fighting all those who disagree with them are really fighting G-d, truth and the Golden Rule.

I have started seeing Trump's comment about Reiner in a different light. At first, I thought it was inappropriate. But looking at it in a different perspective, I think maybe he was saying that the anger that so many liberals have towards him, conservatives, and Christians (which Reiner did), literally takes their focus off of so many other things that they really should be focused on. People, regardless of their political preferences, should start focusing on more important things, like their families. I think Reiner was so focused on his hatred toward over half of the country, that it took his focus off of his son. I wonder if his son got into drugs and had mental health issues because he was craving his father's attention that he never got. Maybe his son heard so much anger and negativity from his father that he just couldn't handle it, so he turned to drugs. Anyone who has so much hatred toward a President, conservatives who voted for him, and towards anyone that doesn't agree with their views can literally become mentally unstable. So, maybe we are taking Trump's statement out of context. Trump was right that Reiner let his anger and hatred of him and conservatives control his life. If only Reiner and other liberals could just let go of their anger and hatred toward people who disagree with them, we would have less crimes and violence. I think that's what Trump was actually trying to convey. He didn't use the best wording, but he does have a point.

Brethren, Peter tells us that Christ set an example that we should follow. That example was one of quiet suffering, of self-sacrifice. It is an example that many who take His name often do not emulate. Many even, falsely, preach that Christ set a different example, one of opulence and comfort.

But Jesus Himself told us what it takes to follow Him: “If anyone wishes to come after Me, he must deny himself, and take up his cross daily and follow Me” (Lk. 9:23). The Christian life is not a life of ease, it is a battle, and one in which we are called to give ourselves up.

Paul expounded this reality when he wrote, “I am crucified with Christ, and it is no longer I who live, but Christ lives in me” (Gal. 2:20). This is our call. We must set aside our personal wants, we must crucify the flesh with its passions and desires (Gal. 5:24), and seek first His kingdom and His righteousness (Mt. 6:33).

Dear Christian, I exhort you today - consider for what or whom you are living. Are you indulging the flesh, or are you walking in the Spirit and denying the flesh? You cannot serve two masters (Mt. 6:24), so choose this day whom you will serve (Josh. 24:15).

"I am crucified with Christ." Galatians 2:20

The Lord Jesus Christ acted in what He did as a great public representative person, and His dying upon the cross was the virtual dying of all His people. Then all His saints rendered unto justice what was due, and made an expiation to divine vengeance for all their sins. The apostle of the Gentiles delighted to think that as one of Christ's chosen people, he died upon the cross in Christ. He did more than believe this doctrinally, he accepted it confidently, resting his hope upon it. He believed that by virtue of Christ's death, he had satisfied divine justice, and found reconciliation with God. Beloved, what a blessed thing it is when the soul can, as it were, stretch itself upon the cross of Christ, and feel, "I am dead; the law has slain me, and I am therefore free from its power, because in my Surety I have borne the curse, and in the person of my Substitute the whole that the law could do, by way of condemnation, has been executed upon me, for I am crucified with Christ."

But Paul meant even more than this. He not only believed in Christ's death, and trusted in it, but he actually felt its power in himself in causing the crucifixion of his old corrupt nature. When he saw the pleasures of sin, he said, "I cannot enjoy these: I am dead to them." Such is the experience of every true Christian. Having received Christ, he is to this world as one who is utterly dead. Yet, while conscious of death to the world, he can, at the same time, exclaim with the apostle, "Nevertheless I live." He is fully alive unto God. The Christian's life is a matchless riddle. No worldling can comprehend it; even the believer himself cannot understand it. Dead, yet alive! crucified with Christ, and yet at the same time risen with Christ in newness of life! Union with the suffering, bleeding Saviour, and death to the world and sin, are soul-cheering things. O for more enjoyment of them!

A person who is mentally repressed and a prisoner of their own impulses is lost to seeing the truth. How? Because being provoked involves the tasks of getting angry and then having to calm down. This person can have a lot of rancor which is a waist of time and energy as in their humanity they are carried along, swept along by life without any introspection, self knowledge. The results are there is little space for growth. A deeper reading of reality is missed. How? By their own rancor needing to argue and blame, their theories cannot be lived out by what they apparently think they know and choose to believe. This can create an unhappiness in their life situations they are unable to take responsibility for. Don’t rock my boat. My personal sense of insulation from change or “waking up.”

This kind of rancor requires an immediate response and hatred can be. ferociously expressed, leading to a personally distorted reality. It causes a false reading of reality which enables fear, greed, envy and unrecognized oppression.

I am not smart enough to see this by myself, digging it out from an old book written by a Rabbi and poorly translated, but it makes sense. Having read recently on Substack some very strange beliefs about Jews leading to a warped antisemitism and outright hate. My responses encouraging G-d’s love for all humankind and no returning blame fell on deaf ears. So I just had to block those individuals and walkway.

That's funny!

Believer, do you hear Jesus call? He cries, “come to Me” (Mt. 11:28). And well, we should come to Him, for He will give us rest.

We have toils and troubles in this world, and Jesus promised it would be so (Jn. 16:33). But in Him, we find rest for our souls. His burden, unlike that of the law, is not heavy. He is not a harsh taskmaster. Our rest is not based on the day of the week; He is our Sabbath rest (Heb. 4:8-11).

Jesus Himself needed time to find rest for His soul. He often did this by separating Himself, leaving the crowds and His disciples to find a place of solitude that He might pray (Mt. 14:23). Even in the garden of Gethsemane, with His sacrifice imminent, He stepped away from His disciples to pray.

We so often forget to simply come to Him for that rest. The cares of this world, like weeds, entangle us, choke out the word (Mt. 13:22), leave us panting and yearning for relief. Yet all we need do is heed His call: “come to Me.”

Christian, this morning, take time to come before Him. Open your heart to Him. Spend time with Him. And find rest for your soul.

"Come unto me." Matthew 11:28

The cry of the Christian religion is the gentle word, "Come." The Jewish law harshly said, "Go, take heed unto thy steps as to the path in which thou shalt walk. Break the commandments, and thou shalt perish; keep them, and thou shalt live." The law was a dispensation of terror, which drove men before it as with a scourge; the gospel draws with bands of love. Jesus is the good Shepherd going before His sheep, bidding them follow Him, and ever leading them onwards with the sweet word, "Come." The law repels, the gospel attracts. The law shows the distance which there is between God and man; the gospel bridges that awful chasm, and brings the sinner across it.

From the first moment of your spiritual life until you are ushered into glory, the language of Christ to you will be, "Come, come unto me." As a mother puts out her finger to her little child and woos it to walk by saying, "Come", even so does Jesus. He will always be ahead of you, bidding you follow Him as the soldier follows his captain. He will always go before you to pave your way, and clear your path, and you shall hear His animating voice calling you after Him all through life; while in the solemn hour of death, His sweet words with which He shall usher you into the heavenly world shall be- "Come, ye blessed of my Father."

Nay, further, this is not only Christ's cry to you, but, if you be a believer, this is your cry to Christ- "Come! come!" You will be longing for His second advent; you will be saying, "Come quickly, even so come Lord Jesus." You will be panting for nearer and closer communion with Him. As His voice to you is "Come," your response to Him will be, "Come, Lord, and abide with me. Come, and occupy alone the throne of my heart; reign there without a rival, and consecrate me entirely to Thy service."

STEVE INMAN: NON-ESSENTIAL COMMENTARY

No one is abusing immigrants. We are purging ourselves of invaders, thieves, robbers, rapists, terrorists, freeloaders, and hostiles.

We are not bullying the outcast, but we must call upon the lost to sin no more.

We are not oppressing the poor, but we do not want our social services and resources being exploited by able-bodied people who are able to provide for themselves but won't.
