I admire your vast knowledge of not only the Bible, but the geography of where these books take place and the context of that era. It provides much more context and I get so much more out of the scriptures.
❤James 4:1-12( Submit yourselves to God)❤ "4 What causes fight and quarrels among you? Don't they come from your desire that battlw within you? 2 You want something but don't get it. You kill and covet, but you cannot have what you want. You quarrel and fight. You do not have, because you do not ask God. 3 When you ask, you do not receive, because you ask with wrong motives, that you may spend what you get on your pleasures. 4 You adulterous people, don't you know that friendship with the world is hatred toward God? Anyone who chooses to be a friend of the world becomes an enemy of God. 5 Or do you think Scriptures says without reason that the spirit he caused to live in us envied intensely? 6 But he gives us more grace. That is why the Scripture says: " God opposes the proud but give grace to the humble." 7 Submit yourselves, then to God( God of the Bible). Resist the devil, and he will flee from you. 8 Come near to God and he will come near to you. Wash your hands, you sinners and purify your hearts, you double minded. 9 Grieve, mourn and wail. Change your laughter to mourning and your joy to gloom. 10 Humble :) yourselves before the Lord, and he will lift you up.( Amen.) 11 Brothers, do not slander one another. Anyone who speak against his brother or judge him speaks against the law and judges it. When you judge the law, you are not keeping it, but sitting in judgment on it. 12 There is only one Lawgiver and Judge, the one who is able to save and destroy. But you- who are you to judge your neighbor? "( James 4:1-12 Zondervan NIV Study Bible)

Just some back story form a non-Christian philosopher - Plato said: The worst forms of Government were: Tyrants then Democracy. Best forms: Oligarchy and the best form. Benevolent King. Can’t think of a better one than King Jesus. Source: Plato’s Republic. FWIW: Socrates according to Plato said - if a perfect just man ever showed up we would arrest him, torture him and crucify him. Why? Socrates said: Man does not want to be good just to appear good. This man would expose us, and make us look bad.
Just a little correction by truth and fact Christian to Christian..under the Biden Admin the issues at the Southern border is at it's lowest ever. God Bless.
Not according to US Border Patrol chief Raul Ortiz in his testimony to Congress on March 15, 2023. I'll take his word over Mayorkas. Or just talk to the Texas ranchers living along the border. And Pastor Skip is in New Mexico on the border so I would think he would know pretty much what's going on. In any case it's not secure enough with all the drugs and human trafficking going on.Thanks!
I love you sermons so very much I pray for you and your church

Just some back story form a non-Christian philosopher - Plato said:
The worst forms of Government were:
Tyrants then Democracy.
Best forms:
Oligarchy and the best form. Benevolent King.
Can’t think of a better one than King Jesus.

FWIW: Socrates according to Plato said - if a perfect just man ever showed up we would arrest him, torture him and crucify him. Why? Socrates said: Man does not want to be good just to appear good. This man would expose us, and make us look bad.
