That's just the way Italian men say "hello"! Be thankful that we're not dogs. I must say that I'm jealous Gregory. Women have always appreciated me for my mind. That's so shallow! I have a body too!

I'm already approved of God because I have put my faith in the righteousness of His Son Jesus Christ; which I believe counts as righteousness for me.. I already believe (in fact depend upon) the fact that He has already provided for my salvation with His death and resurrection. I already wear Christ's righteousness - white as snow. My own righteousness (or "getting it right) is meaningless - it is as filthy rags. I hate to break it to you, but so is yours. To depend upon "getting it right" doctrine- and behavior-wise rather than depending on the grace and mercy of Jesus Christ to bring us into the Kingdom is "getting it wrong".

You have probably seen the news video of the male restaurant patron grabbing the butt of a female waitress. Well, if you have not seen it, she laid him out on the floor, and he was arrested by the police who were called. Thursday, I accompanied my wife on a shopping trip. While standing and waiting for my wife a middle-aged woman grabbed my butt! [I kid you not. This is all true.] I faced a decision: As I told my wife later: I was not about to yell out and make a scene. I was not about to become the center of attention in a large store where it was likely that no one would believe me and who knows what the woman would have said about me. So, I said and did nothing and the woman walked on without giving me a glance back. On a personal basis, I can understand females who are groped a little bit better now.

I would like to know where do you see that John call the remnant a church?

Praise the Lord!! Sounds awesome!!

Jesus puts His face on All of humanity. I think many know or at least surmised I am not a fan of Trump. This pic stopped me in my tracks. I see the Tenderness of God being exchanged.

Pres Trump is very human, and as such, has many moments of tenderness and compassion. He actually loves all American’s, and wants what is best for citizens first. Which is what a good President does. Maga.

I find your recount pretty funny. Back in the mid-70s, a friend and I were on a packed, Friday evening train going between Lugano, Switzerland, and Milan, Italy... the train was full of Italian men going back to their homes in Italy (they worked in Switzerland during the week). We'd been warned by our Swiss hosts that we'd probably be getting pinched and patted by the men — and the warning was correct. We'd also been told what to do: give them the "evil eye" look, complete with the raised eyebrow and the crossed arms. Amazingly enough, it worked. ?

Satan may not be allowed into Heaven; but that doesn't mean he doesn't communicate with God. He can still present his case against us without being in Heaven; just like we can present our cases before God without actually being in Heaven. The scenarios you present above are certainly plausible; but there are many plausible scenarios out there. Like most prophecies, we won't likely know exactly how they are fulfilled until they are being fulfilled.
