I am grafted in and will bless my rootstock.....

Yup
Myself as well, and being faithful to our creator is how we bless God.
Trust Jesus.

I Jesus have sent mine angel to testify unto you these things in the churches.i am the root and offspring of David, and the bright and morning star. Rev 22: 16

Well said!

"Nobody's right if everybody's wrong." That's how I feel about it. We need to circle the wagons and take care of our own country and quit sending money and weapons around the world. They have been fighting this war for centuries. You think it's ever going to end? Israel was chosen as the lineage of the messiah. That doesn't mean they can do no wrong or that God will always protect them. The Bible ltself disproves that idea.

Truth

I've got to wonder if you're young enough yet to be able to voluntarily join up and get killed for some country on the other side of the world, or if you've got boys that are of the age to be drafted and get killed for some country on the other side of the world.

I've got a 12 year old and a 10 year old boy. The way things are going, I'm concerned about another world war that they could get drafted into Ina few years, just to get shot by some illiterate goat herder or a 120lb Chinaman with an old AK halfway across the world. No thanks.

Hay,
No stereotyping now.
I do seriously understand your point.

LOL.

Heard on radio recently that Israel must use US aid funds to buy US made military items. With a few exceptions, they can buy some items made in Israel. Can’t spend our money in any other nation. Therefore, much of the military aid money comes back to US and supports our defense manufacturing and US jobs.

After the Vietnam war, we gave lots of outdated Coast Guard ships to allied countries. Those countries have been purchasing parts and updates from us for 50+ years now.

So it would make a big difference to you if the
goat herder could read & write & do his sums ?

So what your saying from what you heard on the radio is,
War is a racket.

For those that read and know your Bible - Did you ever think our nation would elect those that call for the annihilation of Israel? Did you ever think Hamas would be glorified on our campuses and allow them to shut our schools down? Did you ever think such open religious discrimination would occur to the Jews - in our country?

I hope you and your families are prepared. Not with food, bullets, and a backup generator but with knowledge of Jesus Christ and His chosen people. I am right with my Lord and can somewhat enjoy these times as I sit back and know I am one day closer to being caught up in the air with Him! Everything going on just fulfills prophesy as we watch our nation turn against Israel.

Yes, while my earthly patriot side wanted to believe that America would always live up to it's highest ideals but reality confirms all that God has foretold.

I would have been surprised if the current state of the world had not ended where it is today. For the past 80 years or so we have been on a gradual slippery slope. The decay of the morality in our society has escalated.
Realy since ww2.
I'm glad you're right with the lord, weather you are raptured or die a natural death always be ready.
God is in control. And that gives us hope.

Has any nation ever lived up to its earthly patriot side. Nations come and go. But the faithful will always prevail.

To foxkidd
I know the thread seems to have strayed.
One thing I was thinking of. Your nephews that are serving. I believe we're there hearts are is the real issue.
I would assume these Yung men are serving because of there love of freedom and for the future of there loved ones. If there hearts are in the right plase and there right with God, that seems to me to be what's important.
Life is but a vapor. But eternity is forever. Only God knows our hearts.

Everything the bible has predicted is falling into place. God has been very patient. How much longer before He brings it all to an end? Jesus said only the Father knows. We've got to be getting close.

Sure seems that way.

I'm wondering is you would care to share these predictions that are falling into place?
