Come, you who are blessed by my Father; take your inheritance, the kingdom prepared for you since the creation of the world.

How nice of you to post that.....no doubt you had the two suggestions by lawmakers that Trump deserves the Nobel Peace Prize for same:

Trump gets a second nomination for Nobel Peace Prize after Serbia-Kosovo deal

President Trump has received a second nomination for the 2021 Nobel Peace Prize after he helped secure a deal for normalized economic relations between Serbia and Kosovo -- days after he was nominated for his role in a deal between the United Arab Emirates and Israel.

Great and now if he would live up to his promises on bringing the troops home. That would still only be one aspect of the words Jesus taught.

Don't you feel any empathy for poor Trump....who won't be able to get a Nobel Prize for the reason that Obama got one.....melanin?

obama got that nobel peace prize, NOT because he was black - but rather it was a slap to the face of W.

obama didn't know he was nominated, let alone was going to be the recipient. & along with the 'prize' ... there is also a nice cash award that goes with it.

obama promptly donated it to charity.

So to be consistent Trump should win as a slap to Obama as Obama simply carried on Bush's war policy. And then the next president win one as a slap to Trump..............

Will it ever end?

On what basis did Hussein get the Nobel Prize?

His campaign promises which were all lies.

Must I keep correcting you and educating you????

Really???

He got the prize for the same reason Clinton got a Rhodes Scholarship......for being a Liberal/Democrat.....and for his skin color.

And because he wasn't hom skooled.

When Liberals seek knowledge, they go to the NYTimes. When conservatives seek knowledge, we go to the Bible.
And therein we discover that FOREVER is the time span for how long human nature remains exactly the same.



1. When I was studying Dennis Prager’s book “Genesis,” I was surprised to find him pointing to three short verses that he states, “are among the most important in the Torah.”

26.13 and the man grew richer and richer until he was very wealthy:

26.14 he acquired flocks and herds, and a large household, so that the Philistines envied him.

26.15 And the Philistines stopped up all the wells which his father’s servants had dug in the days of his father Abraham, filling them with earth.

And in many today, we see a similar response to those more successful.



2. A central them of socialism/communism/Leftism is that working toward their final stage for society, they claim that they will alter human nature. “The birth of "The New Soviet Man" was the stated aim of Marxism, breeding a new evolutionary form of human being who will think, look, and act differently. The Nazis claimed to do exactly the same thing: "We must create a new man! A new life form should appear!"

"In both systems we have the ideology of creating a new man. Both systems don't agree with human nature as it is...they are at war with human nature. Both are based on false biology, and false sociology."
Françoise Thom, professor of Soviet history, Sorbonne, Paris

Mao’s Cultural Revolution: “Phrases like “rebellion against authority,” “revolution in education,” “destroying an old world so a new one could be born,” and “creating new man”—all of which attracted many in the West in the 1960s—were interpreted as calls for violent action.” Chang, “Wild Swans”

Hillary Rodham gave the student commencement address at Wellesley in which she said that “for too long our leaders have used politics as the art of making what appears to be impossible, possible….We’re not interested in social reconstruction; it’s human reconstruction.” Page Redirection



3. The Old Testament was written, although not compiled, almost three millennia ago, yet it’s statements about human nature are accurate today: the envy and jealousy written about in those three verses certainly applies today. “…human nature doesn’t change. These verses encapsulate Jewish and human history. Instead of emulating the successful, most people envy them, and then often wish to destroy their wealth— and sometimes even them.”
Prager, Op.Cit.




4. Never have the Leftist’s claims about the ability to alter human nature come to fruition, and they never will. It seems clear that human nature isn’t malleable. There always was, and will be, jealousy and envy, and greed, what we call self-interest. The problem is that at one time envy and jealousy was considered a flaw of character, but no longer.

Sociologist Helmut Schoeck’s observation: “Since the end of the Second World War, however, a new ‘ethic’ has come into being, according to which the envious man is perfectly acceptable. Progressively fewer individuals and groups are ashamed of their envy, but instead make out that its existence in their temperaments axiomatically proves the existence of ‘social injustice,’ which must be eliminated for their benefit.” Helmut Schoeck, “Envy: A Theory of Social Behavior,” p. 179



Essentially, that means that society no longer advances the characteristics such as self-respect, personal responsibility, and the work ethic. Instead, we honor 'socialism.'

^ ' When Liberals seek knowledge, they go to the NYTimes. When conservatives seek knowledge, we go to the Bible. '

did 2 corinthians tell you that?

Whenever Democrats/socialists attempt to change the subject, I simply ask them to prove this:

An one more 'I hate you post' from a dolt who never went beyond the third grade.

So very glad you posted that......an excellent refutation of socialism.

Ungleaned fields are left for the poor (Leviticus 19:10). Wealthy people are not to harvest every last bit of their crops—and poor people are required to work to collect their food." Is God a Socialist?



So....in the Bible we do not find support for communism, nor socialism....but rules that "preserve private incentive. No need for government-enforced wealth redistribution. No need for bureaucrats to decide how much wealth is one’s “fair share.” Ibid.



Couple that parable with this:
In 2 Thessalonians 3:10, Paul said, “If anyone will not work, neither shall he eat”...

..... and one is led, ineluctably, away from socialism, and toward the greatest economic advance in the history of mankind:

capitalism.

Capitalism is ownership of capital. Not working vs not working. This country has 12m working poor and only 3m people on TANF (welfare). That is the working poor the right doesn’t really care about. Beyond that the US has 1/3 of its workforce in low wage jobs below $10 and hour, more than any other western country. The Bible preaches care for the poor and despised riches of the elite. In fact the rich are the bad guys in the whole book. Try reading it sometime.

I prefer the words of Jesus.

"The King will reply, 'Truly I tell you, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers and sisters of mine, you did for me.'

Matthew 25:40

Blessed are the peacemakers, for they will be called children of God.

Matthew 5:9

"life does not consist in an abundance of possessions"

Luke 12:15

Come, you who are blessed by my Father; take your inheritance, the kingdom prepared for you since the creation of the world. For I was hungry and you gave me something to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink, I was a stranger and you invited me in, I needed clothes and you clothed me, I was sick and you looked after me, I was in prison and you came to visit me"

Matthew 25 34-36

"I prefer the words of Jesus.
Matthew 25:40

Blessed are the peacemakers, for they will be called children of God. "



How nice of you to post that.....no doubt you had the two suggestions by lawmakers that Trump deserves the Nobel Peace Prize for same:


"Norwegian official nominates Trump for Nobel prize, citing Israel-UAE agreement"

Norwegian official nominates Trump for Nobel prize, citing Israel-UAE agreement

A member of the Norwegian Parliament has nominated President Trump for the 2021 Nobel Peace Prize for his role brokering relations between Israel and the United Arab Emirates (UAE).

"Trump gets a second nomination for Nobel Peace Prize after Serbia-Kosovo deal"

Trump gets a second nomination for Nobel Peace Prize after Serbia-Kosovo deal

President Trump has received a second nomination for the 2021 Nobel Peace Prize after he helped secure a deal for normalized economic relations between Serbia and Kosovo -- days after he was nominated for his role in a deal between the United Arab Emirates and Israel.

www.foxnews.com

Only a SUCKER swallows the BS that Tramp was nominated for even one Noble sic prize, since nominations ended Jan 31, 2020 at midnight.

This is one of easiest occasion on which I get to smash a verbal custard pie in your ugly kisser:

For the second time the US president gets a nod for the coveted award - but we won't know if he wins for a year.

In a Friday morning tweet, Magnus Jacobsson, a member of the Swedish Parliament, announced he was nominating the Trump administration and the two European nations.

thehill.com

My dead mother nominated me 3 times for the Nobel peace prize for correcting you. Has as much weight as Tramp's.

What do you say we make a little wager, loser leaves the board. When they announce the 2020 winner Tramp's name will NOT be listed among the nominated!

He's already nominated.

Derp.

It's like this leftard thinks 2020 is the only year. Ever.

To be nominated you have to be nominated by someone on the nominating committee, it doesn't matter what year.
Selection of Nobel Laureates
The Norwegian Nobel Committee is responsible for the selection of eligible candidates and the choice of the Nobel Peace Prize Laureates. The Committee is composed of five members appointed by the Storting (Norwegian parliament).

Sorry. God is either a socialist or at least a democratic socialist. Jesus would turn over the tables at the Republican Headquarters and kick them all out.


Leviticus 19:9-10 (NIV)
“When you reap the harvest of your land, do not reap to the very edges of your field or gather the gleanings of your harvest. Do not go over your vineyard a second time or pick up the grapes that have fallen. Leave them for the poor and the foreigner. I am the LORD your God.”

Deuteronomy 15:7 (ESV)
“If among you, one of your brothers should become poor, in any of your towns within your land that the LORD your God is giving you, you shall not harden your heart or shut your hand against your poor brother.”

Proverbs 31:8-9 (NIV)
“Speak up for those who cannot speak for themselves, for the rights of all who are destitute. Speak up and judge fairly; defend the rights of the poor and needy.”

Luke 12:33-34 (NIV)
“Sell your possessions and give to the poor. Provide purses for yourselves that will not wear out, a treasure in heaven that will never fail, where no thief comes near and no moth destroys. For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.”

1 Timothy 6:18 (NIV)
“Command them to do good, to be rich in good deeds, and to be generous and willing to share.”

So very glad you posted that......an excellent refutation of socialism.

Ungleaned fields are left for the poor (Leviticus 19:10). Wealthy people are not to harvest every last bit of their crops—and poor people are required to work to collect their food." Is God a Socialist?



So....in the Bible we do not find support for communism, nor socialism....but rules that "preserve private incentive. No need for government-enforced wealth redistribution. No need for bureaucrats to decide how much wealth is one’s “fair share.” Ibid.

2. " This country has 12m working poor and only 3m people on TANF (welfare)."
There are no poor in this country, and if any fit the following description is applies to the mentally ill, and no more than a rounding error.

Poor means no home, no heat, no food.

But the most foolish still accept the hand-wringing propaganda of the Democrat Party.

I just provided the quote that destroys you claim about the Bible.



As to your suggestion that you follow the precepts of the Bible.....Shakespeare skewered you here:
“The devil can cite Scripture for his purpose.
An evil soul producing holy witness
Is like a villain with a smiling cheek,
A goodly apple rotten at the heart.
O, what a goodly outside falsehood hath!”

― William Shakespeare, The Merchant of Venice

8. “The most notable exception to this unfortunate rule of human nature has been the American people. Until almost the present day, Americans tended to react to people who had attained material success not by resenting them but by wanting to know how they could emulate them. This seems to be changing as more Americans join others in resenting the economic success of other people. Like the Philistines mentioned above, most people would rather fill the wells of the world’s Abrahams than learn how to dig wells with water.” Prager



It is difficult to miss that this acceptance of envy and jealousy has been advanced by the banning of religion in government school.

The change in American is due to Militant Secularism in the schools, the only religion allowed there, and the media, the enemy of religious tradition.



The future does not look all that rosy.

Ah. So your argument is no one is poor in the US?

You built a straw man trying to purport I think people should lay around and do nothing and get money. That’s the core tactic of the anti-intellectual. It’s the laziest of all logic fallaciesin my opinion.

An honest pay for honest work is what liberals want. The current system has concentrated all the wealth in the country into the top 10%. Republicans say “oh well 90% are lazy”. The system is broken PC.
