Christians in America are a confused bunch of nuts.
That’s why their number continue to dwindle with each passing year.
Went to a church one time where every Sunday the pastor figured out a way to sneak in “gays bad” into every sermon. He found some creative methods of bringing up gays too. I have no idea why the congregation, I’m assuming none of whom were gay, didn’t at least get tired of it.
But yeah, that’s my theory on why religion is dying. People are just tired of the hatred dripping from most religions, and we have the internet to learn our way out of the ignorance required for that hate.
Christ said they will hate you because they hate Me.Our precious Savior Jesus is everything,so keep your hate to yourself Shlomo.
YOU ARE JUST A BUNCH OF CONTROL FREAKS WHO TWEAK THE BIBLE TO FIT YOU MIND CONTROL AGENDA………………….””””’Then Jesus said to them, “Give back to Caesar what is Caesar’s and to God what is God’s.””””””
So, your problem is that she spoke about putting off some boot knocking with her fiancee vs her husband. Is that the “sin”? Or was it not the right time and place that offended thee? I detest the societal need for some sort of governance but moreso stand by the adage of the separation of church and state. The way the religious rights try to affect laws based on their beliefs is a big problem. I find so much hypocrisy in the behaviors from the professed born agains to the point that in general, they use the “religion” the skirt personal responsibility. No, Nancy could have chosen her words better for those with a miserly sense of humor, I’ll give you that but to judge her as a liar when confessing belief, where does that come from? Best work on that log my friend. It would scare the crap out of me to see the likes of your judgemental holiness in political power. Moral piety does not effectively originate from politics, you cannot police it, this comes from personal faith and family values. When you mix religion and politics, you get politics.
There are no atheists in a foxhole. Holding someone to standards is not judging them.
After all, Mace is just another politician. Sad, at first I thought she was a breath of fresh air and voted for her. Lets voted her out so she can fornicate and frolic with her boyfriend all morning long.
You’re not good at making threats.
Let’s send you home to have lots of sex, instead of hanging with the morons from the Freedumb Caucus?
I’m not a particular fan of Ms. Mace – she’s my Rep @ Congress – BUT….. John 8:7 – “Let he who is without sin, cast the first stone.” comes to mind. I DO agree that her comments were somewhat (OUCH – when I first read them) inappropriate, particularly given the setting. But I don’t know that the lengthy diatribe was called-for. A bit of charity might’ve gone a long way here ….. but that’s just me.
UFO’s ……………………….. another story, another time.
Read the whole verse,it says lest you judge in righteousness.Mace is scum.She also voted for the discrimination against hair act proving she is not a serious woman but a virtue signaling liberal.
Mr Brock:
If you are referring to the same church that supported a thrice married, narcissistic, lying nut bag; I wouldn’t get my hopes up about any form of repentance. Apparently, living a life following the teachings of Christ is discarded easily for political gain.
What verse is that? Do you even know what you are talking about, there is no such addendum to the verse cited. The full passage:
[3] And the scribes and Pharisees brought unto him a woman taken in adultery; and when they had set her in the midst,
[4] They say unto him, Master, this woman was taken in adultery, in the very act.
[5] Now Moses in the law commanded us, that such should be stoned: but what sayest thou?
[6] This they said, tempting him, that they might have to accuse him. But Jesus stooped down, and with his finger wrote on the ground, as though he heard them not.
[7] So when they continued asking him, he lifted up himself, and said unto them, He that is without sin among you, let him first cast a stone at her.
[8] And again he stooped down, and wrote on the ground.
I think you are just a pretend Christian, who no doubt is clueless as to what Christ taught and would not like it if you knew. I suspect you follow the man who has been married three times, committed adultery three times; was sleeping with a porn star while his third wife was home with their baby; and bragged about molesting women and his sexual prowess; again while he was married. A man who has never asked for forgiveness of his sins and has not spent a day in Church since he left office.
My reply was for walking tall, not Tom Jones
Matt Brock leads a church, so chances are better than not that he’s molested children or covered it up at the least.
So much hate, so little Jesus.
Let’s see, following God’s decrees…so you’re advocating for our military to plunder cities, make slaves of the virgins, kill all the males and force marriage on the newly widowed women? That is in the Bible as a directive the the Israelites. My suggestion for you. Follow Jesus and strive to learn about this crazy concept that he espoused called grace. You ain’t got it.
Since she is not married, she cannot commit adultery, so she is not breaking one of the commandments, so where’s the sin? Most church teachings on sex come from one or more old men way back in time who had some problems with sex and so they went around spewing their crap about how bad it was. And like many people who follow the orange-headed one today, more and more people took it to heart and all of a sudden, it became “the word of God”. No wonder more and more people have no use for that money-maker otherwise known as “organized religion”.
Amazing. God’s Word is clear when it comes to certain things and the sanctity of marriage and how one should behave when it comes to sex is clear. It is a directive and a promise from God that comes with a blessing. When mishandled outside of marriage there are clear consequences that do not fall in the “I’ve been blessed” category. Grace, the kind that Jesus modeled for us, is Grace that loves the sinner but hates the sin.
All that said, it is amazing that as soon as someone stands up and points to God’s truth, it’s hate. “So much hate….?” Hate for what? Hate for what God says? Hate for what Jesus said or did? Or do you hate that someone thinks integrity and character are traits our leaders should carry into the political realm. I happen to think that God created us and that He knows best. While I don’t advocate for laws that enforce morality, I do agree with Matt and would like the people who make the laws to be moral.
I know that I am a sinner who sins. How do I know what sin is? God tells us in the bible. I can do nothing but depend upon the promises of Jesus, the grace of Jesus, to have any hope at all. I have to repent and turn from my sins repeatedly. We are all sinners in this broken world. But given a choice between a leader that attempts to live with a heart that follows God’s own heart and one that lives with whatever truth fits their worldview- I’ll choose the one that stands with God. Politics and politicians will not save us from anything- but I’d rather have one that follows God’s way of living than one that follows their own. It will surely work out for the best for everyone.
Mr. Brock, I believe you need to actually read the US Constitution. And specifically, you need to count up the number of times that it references God, Jesus, or the Bible. Since I know that a lot of conservatives have a problem with a) reading and b) comprehension, spoiler alert, the count is zero. Also? I’d invite you to review Article VI, which strictly prohibits religious tests for public office. Furthermore, there is the precedent of the Treaty of Tripoli, ratified unanimously in 1797 by this nation’s founding fathers, which explicitly states that “the Government of the United States of America is not in any sense founded on the Christian religion.” If you need further clarification on this matter, then let me direct you to Thomas Jefferson’s 1802 letter to the “Danbury Baptists” wherein he explains the necessity of a wall of separation between church and state. So maybe, just maybe, actually read your Bibles and concentrate on being better Christians instead of attempting to impose a theocracy on the United States in blatant violation of the US Constitution.
Fuck you and your filthy white trash religion.
It is unusual for a Christian, any Christian, to write a torrid rebuke of another Christian in public media. Yet the blistering dressing down of U.S. Rep Nancy Mace by Matt Brock in The Republic Sentinel and reprinted in Fits News was delivered in breathtaking, holier-than-thou fashion. Apparently, Brock’s mission is to chastise, er, “encourage government lawmakers to pass righteous statutes.” He believes he has been commanded to “teach” government representatives to obey the ways of the Lord, and, if they don’t… well, as a badge-carrying member of the church, HE must step forward as castigator.
South Carolinians that voted for Rep Mace – my representative – do not what her beholding to anyone, least of all a religious zealot. In this country, our representatives are chosen by people of many different faiths. If Mr. Brock insists on having things his way, he should stop casting stones and, God forbid, run for office.
Wow Mace got all her staffers to comment.I can tell because they spout the atheist,radical,mean-spirited words that leftists usually do.That’s what Congress gets for letting AIPAC pick their staffers.And how weird is her bf to find her attractive at anytime of day.
See, this Tall Walking person above has the sads because the “atheist, radical, mean-spirited words that leftists usually do.” Then turns around and insults Mace’s looks. And that, in summary, is also what’s wrong with the theocratic movement in the US. It is Christianity that needs to clean its house first before spouting off about how or government should be run and on issues of morality.
Wow another Christian whinning about sin. Seems to me he is jealous Mace has a more rich and varied sex life than the writer himself
Kudos to Matt Brock. Christian churches (remember folks, this was a “prayer breakfast”) and their members need to read and study the Bible. Why are churches dissolving? Because people in and out of church don’t believe the Bible is God’s word and they think they can pick and chose what sin is, to mean to avoid upsetting their own pet sin.
For those who are saying “Don’t judge” in regard to Nancy Mace, aren’t YOU “judging” Matt Brock? Besides that, if you actually read and study the Bible, you’ll see a difference between people condemning the LOST (which Christians aren’t supposed to do, considering all have sinned, and we are to be like Christ and love all and want them to repent and be SAVED) and Christians calling out each OTHER for living in sin (which is allowed).
Even setting aside that this was a prayer breakfast and it is appalling that Mace would admit/brag about fornicating to a group that is supposed to preach against sin (and for the need to be saved), it is at the very least tacky and low brow to mention her trysts in a public setting like that. That is really trashy, adolescent behavior (“Look at me! I am so hot that my boyfriend wants to have sex with me.”).
Really? The party of “OK to grab them by the Pu#$y” is complaining about pre-marital sex?
