Too bad they can't hear us, eh? I'm just grateful for the ones that DO proclaim the Word of God without reservation and without fear that they wont be "liked" by the masses.<BR/><BR/>Oh, and thanks for the <I>Ironic</I> song, now it'll be going through my head all day.<BR/><BR/>:/Carla Rolfehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09395062089776262435noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14012689.post-1120175854282957462005-06-30T19:57:00.000-04:002005-06-30T19:57:00.000-04:00Thank you Jeremy:What a time we live in.

I love our President and pray for him daily (as I did Clinton). But the real battle is not fought and won on Pennsylvania Ave., but in the local church, with our neighbor, in the work place, with our families as we daily live out and proclaim the truth of the gospel.<BR/><BR/>Francis of Assis once said, "Go and share the gospel, and if necessary use words." That really falls short doesn't it? It's both show and tell. We must be "living sacrifices" and "give a reason for the hope that is in us" with gentleness and reverance to others and for the glory of our Lord.<BR/><BR/>My brother in law was a two term Congressman out of the State of Nebraska (1994/1996). I am glad that the Lord raises up many men and women who love Christ and His truth to carry on in positions of influence and leadership politically. But all the Christians I have met in government always agree that it is not through correct legislation but through life transformation that our nation and society will change.<BR/><BR/>Thanks again brother for your encouraging words.<BR/>Grace and peace,<BR/>SteveSJ Camphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15844201288864307481noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14012689.post-1120096578781596812005-06-29T21:56:00.000-04:002005-06-29T21:56:00.000-04:00Steve,As usual you are clear, biblical, and passio...Steve,<BR/>As usual you are clear, biblical, and passionate, (don't have to wonder what you really think!) I agree wholeheartedly with you on this issue of co-belligerence.<BR/>Divine Truth must always be our basis for unity and if we don't speak Divine Truth, then how do we know if we're unified? Welcome to blogdom, it looks good on you.Jeremy Weaverhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02552780649310262425noreply@blogger.com
