What a magnificent passage this is. It shows you that Saul wasn’t converted to Paul, as so many will tell you, but that it was just another name he was known by. And it shows Paul’s boldness in confronting a false teacher. We don’t always have to use that style, but we shouldn’t be wimps about calling out wolves. Be clear and bold.

Acts 13:9–10 But Saul, who was also called Paul, filled with the Holy Spirit, looked intently at him and said, “You son of the devil, you enemy of all righteousness, full of all deceit and villainy, will you not stop making crooked the straight paths of the Lord?”

SALTY: Cry Babies Throw Out Their Toys Over Musk Twitter Buy – The Twitter thing has been fascinating to watch. He is driving the snowflakes mad, and he’s not even a conservative! He’s more of a traditional liberal who actually believes in the free market of ideas, unlike the Commies who must silence and destroy those with different thoughts. Yet Musk has done more for free speech than Republicans have in decades.

Do any of these foolish children realize how easy it is to block people on Twitter? Why are they so scared that others might engage in conversations in which they aren’t required to be a part of?

Dear Corporations: This ‘Pride Month,’ LEAVE US ALONE — Yep. “Pride month” is a perfect example of the cowardice of normal people. The behaviors are shameful and God-mocking, and encouraging and affirming these people is a serious sin – and especially so when you market them to children.  We’re going to need a lot of millstones to clean this place up.

Romans 1:26–27 For this reason God gave them up to dishonorable passions. For their women exchanged natural relations for those that are contrary to nature; and the men likewise gave up natural relations with women and were consumed with passion for one another, men committing shameless acts with men and receiving in themselves the due penalty for their error.

Romans 1:32 Though they know God’s righteous decree that those who practice such things deserve to die, they not only do them but give approval to those who practice them.

Some Christians will be quick to point out that the Bible is full of sex and violence. And indeed it is. But there is a world of difference between sin described honestly on a page, never with the intent to stimulate or amuse, and sin depicted on the screen with multi-million dollar budgets, real nudity, and realistic gore.

My advice to Christians and non-Christians is to read the Bible well. The Bereans did, and we’re still talking about them 2,000 years later.

Acts 17:11 Now these Jews were more noble than those in Thessalonica; they received the word with all eagerness, examining the Scriptures daily to see if these things were so.

Workers are unhappy to be back in the office, and now they’re getting ready to quit — The entire accounting team (and more) at the company where I work has been thrilled to work from home. I had already been doing it for years and loved it. The big city commutes were wearing me out. That said, I am close to retirement, so I’m not gunning for any promotions. But we’ve still promoted people even though they didn’t have an office presence. People value the extra time and lower stress and costs. We have a big plant, so even if you are there you’d still communicate largely via phone and email. The key is managing people well – especially low performers – with specific deliverables. We offer work-at-home as a huge benefit, but if they don’t deliver well, then it goes away.

Don’t let people play the phony card of not letting your religion inform your politics. Politics matter, and being informed and involved is in line with being a Christian. If you love your neighbors, you won’t want them to be: overrun by crime, crushed and dismembered in the womb, unable to protect themselves (i.e., with a gun), taxed into oblivion, unable to raise their children without groomers trying to destroy their lives, unable to speak freely, taught to be racists and/or to hate themselves, and more.

The early church “turned the world upside down” and boldly and unapologetically declared a new king, Jesus.  Oh, that we would do the same!

Acts 17:6–7 And when they could not find them, they dragged Jason and some of the brothers before the city authorities, shouting, “These men who have turned the world upside down have come here also, and Jason has received them, and they are all acting against the decrees of Caesar, saying that there is another king, Jesus.”

Feminists Pushed The Sexual Revolution To End America, And It’s Working — I’d say it worked all too well. But that doesn’t mean we don’t keep fighting it. The wimps who want to abandon the culture wars forget that opposing all these evils is loving your neighbor. These Leftists don’t hurt me directly, but if I love my neighbors in the womb, for example, I’ll fight to keep them from being crushed and dismembered.

The “litany” went like this:

“Why are we here today?” the chairwoman asked.

“To make revolution,” they answered.

“What kind of revolution?” she replied.

“The Cultural Revolution,” they chanted.

“And how do we make Cultural Revolution?” she demanded.

“By destroying the American family!” they answered.

“How do we destroy the family?” she came back.

“By destroying the American patriarch,” they cried exuberantly.

“And how do we destroy the American patriarch?” she probed.

“By taking away his power!”

“How do we do that?”

“By destroying monogamy!” they shouted.

“How can we destroy monogamy?”

“By promoting promiscuity, eroticism, prostitution, abortion, and homosexuality!” they resounded.

I’ve found 19:11 (the Proverb, not the gun) helpful in many situations.

Proverbs 19:11 Good sense makes one slow to anger, and it is his glory to overlook an offense.

The first part is what most would expect from a Proverb, but the second has an interesting twist. It is to your glory to overlook offenses, and you can remind yourself of that. It is like a little reward for not reacting strongly.

It won’t work well for major infractions, but it is been very helpful for traffic annoyances, difficult co-workers, etc. It often disarms people who are trying to get under your skin.

Seattle’s transit system struggles as riders refuse to pay — Fixed it: People of color were getting disproportionately fined because people of color were disproportionately stealing. So, of course, the gutless and racist leaders did away with requiring payments. This is why we can’t have nice things.

By one measurement, as many as a staggering 70% of all passengers are free riders. But even that is only an estimate as there is almost no fare enforcement. Sound Transit did away with fare enforcement officers after a study revealed people of color were disproportionately getting fined.

Sex and the Schools, or, An Essay You Don’t Want to Read — Don’t kid yourself and believe it isn’t happening in your district. Even if the district isn’t actively pushing this garbage, the younger teachers have been fully indoctrinated and will sneak it in. Sending kids to government schools gives them the implicit and explicit message that they should believe the school officials – even when the teachers say not to tell you something and that you, as parents, are wrong!

In Williamson County, Tennessee, one of the wealthiest and most Republican school districts in the Volunteer state, kindergarteners were given IPads loaded with the book, The GayBCs to help them learn how to read. These five-year-olds learned that B for Bi, C is for Coming Out, D is for Drag, I is for Intersex, N is for Nonbinary, T is for Trans, and so on. The recommended age range for readers of The GayBCs is 4 to 8. That this book is pure CGT propaganda is obvious simply from the fact that the words used in the book are age inappropriate not simply because of the words’ meaning but also because of their difficulty.

When people suppress the truth of God in unrighteousness and don’t honor him or give thanks to him, he gives them over to bad things.  He didn’t give them over to square dancing, but to things like homosexual behavior, the utter denial of God’s created order.   It is unloving and sinful to pretend that he approves of their desires and to affirm those living by those delusions. 

Romans 1:26–27 For this reason God gave them up to dishonorable passions. For their women exchanged natural relations for those that are contrary to nature; and the men likewise gave up natural relations with women and were consumed with passion for one another, men committing shameless acts with men and receiving in themselves the due penalty for their error.

Romans 1:32 Though they know God’s righteous decree that those who practice such things deserve to die, they not only do them but give approval to those who practice them.

Biden Family Corruption Update for April 7, 2022 « Lawrence Person’s BattleSwarm Blog — The media is now trying the pathetic approach of “Yeah, but it wouldn’t have impacted the election anyway, so it is no big deal that we actively covered up the story in 2020.” In a way, they are right, because the Dems would have just manufactured more fake votes for Biden. Those “journalists” should be fired and then jailed.

Now that the Hunter Biden dam has finally burst for the MSM, we’re finally getting the “Hey, the Biden family sure seems to be involved in a lot of shady business deals” stories we should have gotten well before the 2020 election if the media weren’t so in the tank for Democrats.

Why the left really wants to sexualize your kids. — Many school districts have few children who can read or write and have no marketable skills, but the Left wants to make sure they hate others (if they are black) or hate themselves (if they are white), and above all, to follow every sexual perversion the Left dreams up and not to tell their parents.  And we pay for all this with our taxes. Get your kids out of government schools and away from these groomers, and vote for real conservatives to be on your school boards.

A nice one-two punch was developed. Kids learn key concepts of Critical Race Theory, which encourage them to hate themselves and their peers because their skin color makes them complicit in systemic oppression. The kids who are marginalizing others with their mere existence are then offered the opportunity to pick new, safe identities from a batch of made-up genders and sexualities. They’re encouraged to hide this from their parents, whose bigotry won’t allow them to understand.

Brilliant: Allie Beth Stuckey looks at systematic groomer supremacy and groomer fragility — The groomers don’t like being called groomers. So yeah, let’s call them groomers. Because they really are groomers. They actively want to talk about sexual perversions with little kids and don’t want the parents to know. That’s grooming. My guess is that social media outlets are already shadow-banning posts with the term, so consider typing “gro*mer” instead. Or, as one person suggested, call them Disneys. They won’t censor that, and it seems appropriate.
