Moderators Gregory Matthews Posted June 14, 2023 Moderators Share Posted June 14, 2023 What is in a name: Karen may be thought to be a common female name. In our society today is has assumed a rather negative connotation. From this perspective, one should be careful about using that name.

Dr. Shane Posted June 17, 2023 Share Posted June 17, 2023 I think Jesus used the name Lazarus to characterize poor but righteous people. If that is the case, assigning a specific name to a given class of people has Biblical roots. Quote Pastoral Family Counselor...

I'll have to send this article to my SIL, who's name is Karen, she might get a kick out of it or not!! Quote phkrause By the decree enforcing the institution of the papacy in violation of the law of God, our nation will disconnect herself fully from righteousness. When Protestantism shall stretch her hand across the gulf to grasp the hand of the Roman power, when she shall reach over the abyss to clasp hands with spiritualism, when, under the influence of this threefold union, our country shall repudiate every principle of its Constitution as a Protestant and republican government, and shall make provision for the propagation of papal falsehoods and delusions, then we may know that the time has come for the marvelous working of Satan and that the end is near. {5T 451.1} Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
