I've been saying it. He's playing the role of Peter.
"Before the cock crows THOU SHALT deny me three times."
Peter was not the type to shy away from a fight. He drew a sword and cut off a Roman soldier's ear when they came to arrest Jesus in Gethsemane. He fought for the cause his entire life and eventually was crucified himself. The man had the faith to walk on water and the courage of a lion. I think the reading of Peter's denial of Jesus has always been misinterpreted as a moment of weakness, when in fact, I've long suspected it was the toughest trial of his faith and was done at the request, if not the command, of Jesus, for reasons possibly only known to Him. His weeping has been framed as a moment of shame. Rather, I think it was the hardest moment of his life, being forced to swallow his pride in a way he never had before. As pride was his greatest vice. Being asked/told to deny confederacy with the man who showed him the power of faith, the cleansing nature of love, and the hope of a glorious eternity could not have sat well with him.
Trump's tweet aimed at Pence on the morning of January 6th always read two ways to me too. So many instantly condemned him, but something about it never sat right with me. I realize completely that I could be wrong but something tells me when this story is told in its entirety, the name Pence will not be the hiss and byword we've made it into the past couple of years. Something tells me he was a vital piece in this (hopefully) final chess match between the lovers of God and the demon followers of Baal.
I agree with all you state and was especially glad when, 'Chris Miller Thanked VP Pence for Efforts in Most Complex Military Operation in History' it settled it in my mind, and I thought that it made perfect sense in this war game. BUT two things still nagged my mind.....
When Robert David Steel said that Mike Pence has killed and consumed children.
Mike Pence received the notice in his envelope, just like the Obamas and Clintons etc., at the funeral of Bush Senior.
Not saying this is proof, just saying that these two things have stuck in my mind especially when he seems to be the one publicly betraying Trump.
No. No. Those are good facts to consider. Again, I could be totally wrong. But that tweet from Trump that morning...something felt off. I think it said something about how sometimes doing the right thing is the hardest thing. Could easily be read two ways. Felt like a chess move. Time will tell.
Why, exactly, should you put any credit in Robert David Steele's allegations about Pence? He has claimed that NASA is operating a slave colony for children on Mars. He has touted "The Protocols of the Learned Elders of Zion," a Czarist hoax, to justify anti-Semitic arguments. Contrary to historic evidence, he asserts the Holocaust is a hoax.
This does not establish that everything he has said is a falsehood. But it does establish that not everything he has said is the truth. You don't have any justification accepting from him any outrageous claims about Pence.
As for the envelope that Pence received, nobody knows what was in it, not even if it was a "notice" (of what?).
Well I just typed a response and then as soon as I mentioned Clintons and Obamas my computer switched off so I am not going to retype it all again.
Will just say, we will all just have to wait to see the truth and the proof.
On the other hand, it is encouraging to know that your computer is allergic to the Clintons and Obamas.
You are reading things into the Gospel that are not there. There is a divine prohibition against deleting anything from or adding anything to the account.
You do make a salient point, however. You refer to Pence as "the hiss and byword WE'VE made it into the past couple of years" (emphasis added, and a very good turn of phrase). Indeed we have, and I feel disgusted every time I see those who hiss and sneer at his name. The just presumption is of innocence until guilt (of what?) is proven. It appalls me how cavalier we are in abandoning that principle, arrogant in our omniscience that we know truth and falsehood as divine inspiration.
When the time comes, it may not be Pence who will have to answer in the afterlife for his sins. It could be us.
The Bible was changed plenty before it made its way into the hands of the public at large. You never know if what you're reading is the true original. Don't get hung up on the details. The Bible teaches one thing no matter how many translations or alterations it goes through: a man with faith can talk to and learn directly from God. Scripture should be the starting point. The experiences the men in those many books had should be where it leads you. Only the Spirit of God will tell you the truth. Let reading the Bible put your head in the right place, then turn to the source, or even the Bible can and will lead you astray.
I'm not sure what heresy you are involved with, but it is one. You are locked into a contradiction: "the Bible teaches..." and "...even the Bible can and will lead you astray." So, does it teach or does it lead us astray? All you are left with is a formless monotheism. And how would you even know if that is correct?
As for what the Bible teaches, one lesson is that God is more powerful than the disbelief of a faithless man (cf. the conversion of Saul to Paul) or the disobedience of a faithful man (Book of Jonah).
This is not our swim lane.
Ask the scribes and pharisees. Did their obsession with the scriptures save them? When the truth was right in front of them but it didn't line up with their reading of scripture, where should they have turned? If you make the scriptures the source of all your knowledge and wisdom and miss the point that you should be going directly to God to know truth from error where will that lead you? If someone altered the bible in a critical way before it reached your hands how would you know if not by the spirit of God? The Bible speaks of a living God we have every right and obligation to commune with. When you take a hard look at the people who put the Bible together, if that doesn't tip you off that maybe it's not the end all be all of the truth, you aren't thinking very hard. Read the Bible. Let it center your mind. Then go to the source. If you lack the faith to believe you can commune directly with God, that's not on me. If that's your only link to God for now, hold fast. But just remember, words can be altered. But truth is truth regardless of the medium. And so is error. The Bible points you to the fountain of living waters. It's still up to you to go there and drink.
That's a super interesting take on it, I like it and it jibes. Wouldn't of course take it as "gospel truth" but I could easily see that. And I don't see anything wrong with "reading into" scripture so long as it's not a distraction or taken as being truth versus an opinion.
I absolutely agree that some that we consider traitors now will be revealed to be heroes.
During the mid 19th Century the political and kinetic battles for central asia between Russia and Great Britain were called "The Great Game". I think this title can be applied more generally to all political brinksmanship. Politics is defined as the struggle for authority or power and in that struggle subterfuge, camouflage and deceit are powerful tools for all sides involved.
Agreed. Same goes for Sessions
