The last couple of days have been rough on me. I found out about 65 percent of the population of the state of Michigan is evil. They voted to permit the killing of babies with non-doctors in non-sterile environments. They need our prayers. This morning I sat down to read my daily readings (Catholic- let the down votes begin) and here they are (condensed).
2 Jn 7-11 Many deceivers have gone out into the world, those who do not acknowledge Jesus Christ as coming in the flesh; such is the deceitful one and the antichrist. Look to yourselves that you do not lose what we worked for but may receive a full recompense. Anyone who is so “progressive” as not to remain in the teaching of the Christ does not have God; whoever remains in the teaching has the Father and the Son.
Psalm 119 Blessed are they who follow the law of the Lord! Blessed are they whose way is blameless, who walk in the law of the LORD. Blessed are they who observe his decrees, who seek him with all their heart.
Luke 17 Jesus said to his disciples:!!! “As it was in the days of Noah, so it will be in the days of the Son of Man; they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage up to the day that Noah entered the ark, and the flood came and destroyed them all. ……. Remember the wife of Lot. Whoever seeks to preserve his life will lose it, but whoever loses it will save it.
The apostle John spelled out the “progressive” agenda 2000 years ago. They are trying to take Jesus out of everything. I believe we have one true goal on this earth- lead a life pleasing to the Father through his son, Jesus Christ, guided by the Holy Spirit that we make partake in his heavenly kingdom upon our death.
Now, no more doom and gloom about the election. Let us fight the good fight and trust in our lord and savior, Jesus Christ.
Edit- Tried to post this 2 hours ago and GAW went down. Dark forces at work!!!
There's no way that many of your fellow michiganners .. michigonians.. ? actually voted that way fren! God is working and he's got a plan.
I know there were fraudulent ballots and I hope and pray that 70% of the Michiganders did not vote for this evil as even 1 person voting for it is too many.
Thank you for this!
What translation lease, I've looked at a dozen of the most common and none say progressive
Verse 9

Thanks - but I suggest you note the word is in " " and there is a note which provides the context to the translation choice which reads
Anyone who is so “progressive”: literally, “Anyone who goes ahead.” Some gnostic groups held the doctrine of the Christ come in the flesh to be a first step in belief, which the more advanced and spiritual believer surpassed and abandoned in his knowledge of the spiritual Christ. The author affirms that fellowship with God may be gained only by holding to the complete doctrine of Jesus Christ (1 Jn 2:22–23; 4:2; 5:5–6).
Love always perseveres. Love never fails.
Thanks for your persistence to post this.
God bless you, OP.
Thank you and may God bless all believers and help to convert those who are not yet in the light.
And so Salome, the king's pole-dancing daughter called for his head on a platter.
Wrong John, not the baptist but the new testament author who wrote Revelations on other books of the bible.
Sorry. Lost my head.
He actually did as instructed and wrote down what he saw and was told - he did not write as in initiate it. It is God's revelation given to His Son Revelation 1:1-3
Relax, dummy. The 'numbers' aren't real.
