Trump goes ballistic on bishop after she calls for unity at prayer breakfast

Donald Trump attended the National Prayer Breakfast this week, and it did not go well for him at all. The Bishop, Mariann Edgar Budde, made remarks about unity and how it is impossible to bring unity when so-called Christians go against the teachings of the Bible (like rounding up and deporting immigrants) and this sent Trump and his Republican allies over the edge. Trump commented about how much he disliked the service upon leaving, and then later in the evening began raging about it on Truth Social. Farron Cousins explains what happened.

okay but the thing is, the Prodigal Son should never have left his father. His father was good and right and cared for him. The Prodigal wished his father was dead and had to hit rock bottom before he decided to come beg for mercy from his father. And the father was merciful and excited and rejoiced that his loser son came home.

it’s an awesome story about the Gospel, or about rejoicing with God over sinners who repent, with open arms—

—so if Clancy is returning to DEMA because “prodigal” is supposed to mean he was a traitor to good and loving leaders and now he’s coming back repentant and ready to serve them, that’s dumb. They shouldn’t have been painting the bishops as bad guys, in that case. The father that the prodigal runs from is THE good guy, the right guy, in the parable.

Throne of Glass was published on fictionpress in 2003. The original version was called Queen of Glass and was supposed to be a Cinderella retelling. As we read throught the final product we can see that apart from glass palace in Rifthold it has little to do with the classic Grimm's/Perrault's tale. In the original fairytale we had cruel stepmom and wicked stepsisters who were mean to Cinderella - Throne of Glass has none of that.

I saw people talking abt how both Acotar and Crescent City shares many elements taken from Abrahamic Religions and I think that with Throne of Glass it's the same, especially the storyline from book 1 about Celaena being a slave at salt mines.

In their old posts @alexcollix7 and @longsightmyth pointed out that Celaena being a slave at salt mines storyline was ripped off Lucivar Yaslana's arc from The Black Jewels trilogy by Anne Bishop, but I think it actually has something to do with The Book of Esther.

The Book of Esther also features a young heroine being sold into slavery who then wants to overthrow a powerful ruler - this can't be coincidence

Applying Your Bible Reading

by J.C. Ryle

“Next to praying there is nothing so important in practical religion as Bible reading. By reading that book we may learn what to believe, what to be, and what to do; how to live with comfort, and how to die in peace.

“Happy is that man who possesses a Bible! Happier still is he who reads it! Happiest of all is he who not only reads it, but obeys it, and makes it the rule of his faith and practice!”

"By the end of April [1536], Geoffrey Pole had joined Jane's promoters. It was then that Chapuys, noting that Sir Nicholas Carew had been made knight of the Garter instead of George Boleyn, wrote: ' [Carew] continually counsels [Mistress Seymour] and other conspirators 'pour luy faire une venue,' and only four days ago he and some persons of the chamber sent to tell the Princess to be of good cheer, for [...] the King was already as sick and tired of the concubine as could be; and the brother of Lord Montague told me yesterday at dinner that the day before the bishop of London had been asked [whether] the King could abandon the said concubine, and he would not give any opinion to anyone but the King himself...'"

MAGA Wants to Deport this Priest

[avonlady44]

Today, when we accept Jesus as our Savior that doesn’t mean our lives will be free from troubles or sorrows or struggles. But it does mean that Jesus will always be faithful to help us when we need Him. When we trust in the Jesus with all of our hearts, seeking His will, He will show us the way. And like a tree planted by the water, our lives can still bear fruit for His kingdom.

You can Depend on God.

We can do Better
