For those who want more information on President Elect's brain, a comment from the surgeon who did the surgery may be found at the following: https://www.vanityfair.com/news/2019/08/joe-biden-neurosurgeon-brain

The normal, typical person does begin to lose some cognition at about 40 years of age. This is true for about everyone, to include me. It also includes all of the other people who post here, to include Photodude if he has reached the advanced age of 40+. However, speaking personally from my background in psychology, I do not believe that President Elect Biden is showing any signs of dementia. Everything that I see in him can be explained by the normal process of aging plus his background as a child and later in life of stuttering. I did not know that President Elect Biden had had brain surgery for aneurysms. But, I would not expect that type of surgery to be a cause of dementia.

?Promise ? ? Plenteous redemption Psalm 130:7 Let Israel hope in the Lord : for with the Lord there is mercy, and with him is plenteous redemption.

See, I told you here on the forum people who suppose to stand against the daughters of the Whore has joined them. Now, Biden has dementia. ONE BIG FACT UNTRUTH. My parents had dementia so, I know a lot about it. What a joke! Oh! You do not like this Pope too because he feels for the homosexual right! Well, we will see soon! Remember the Bible said those who will side with the beast and the 10 kings who are not yet will hate the whore! Appears already some will move away from the papacy and they will joined with the beast! The ten horns that you saw are ten more kings, who have not yet come into power, and they will rule with the beast for only a short time. They all think alike and will give their power and authority to the beast. Rev 17:12 , 13 CEV The ten horns which you saw, and the beast, these will hate the prostitute, and will make her desolate, and will make her naked, and will eat her flesh, and will burn her utterly with fire. Rev 17:16 HNH-ye Happy Sabbath, your faithful wannabe Historian

The story of Job may also be instructive here. Job’s experience makes it clear that there is no answer to most of the specific objections raised previously, at least in this life. The tragedies in Job’s life were certainly unexplainable in earthly terms. They came from “nowhere” and made no sense to him. They had […] The post The Story of Job and Trivial Prayers appeared first on Jon Paulien's Blog. View the full article

For a stimulating discussion as to what constitutes a healthy church, I suggest that you read the following article by Reinder Bruinsma: https://atoday.org/what-is-a-healthy-church/

? Promise ? He shall deliver Psalm 72:12 For he shall deliver the needy when he crieth; the poor also, and him that hath no helper.

?promise ? ?Wolf & lamb ?shall feed together Isaiah 65:25 The wolf and the lamb shall feed together, and the lion shall eat straw like the bullock: and dust shall be the serpent's meat. They shall not hurt nor destroy in all my holy mountain, saith the Lord .

So, I have made it up to page 1009*, which is well into the post-exilic period. Up to the destruction of Jerusalem, I found it all very interesting. I have been interested in how they arrange the writings through the different prophets and it seemingly gives a much clearer picture of the whole destruction of Jerusalem and captivity of people of Judah. However, post-exilic, this version of the Bible seems to be running off the rails in some interpretations. While supposedly it was chronological, it put Job up in the post exilic period and seemed to find reasons for Jobs actions related to the thoughts of other nations from about 1300-1400 BC. Unfortunately, that does not make sense! Job had accomplished a lot by the time of his misfortunes at the hand of Satan. Then all is restored and he lives another 140 years. This is not consistent with a life from around 500 BC. Other websites trying to chronologically list the Bible put Job between the flood and Abraham. There were a number of individuals during that time who we know little about or little about the lives of those whose story we did know from earlier Biblical events. Surprisingly, Noah was still alive during the life of Abraham. Abraham is said to have been partially raised in the house of Shem (by the Book of Jasper, of uncertain authenticity). Of interest relative to Job, is that one of the "friends" may have been from the house of Esau. Note the genealogical records of the sons of Esau and the fact that one of the friends was a Temanite. I do believe that at least nominally, Esau was a follower of God much like many Christians today have a form of godliness but not the power of it. Many points get worked over with varying opinions be noting that "other scholars" consider a different interpretation. I guess it is par for the course when you try to make commentary on ancient writings by modern archeological finds and interpretations. *I should be much further along in this Bible, however, I have a reading challenge over at Goodreads.com for 36 books this year. I try to keep a Bible version going, one from SOP, one from other SDA or Christian writers, and one secular writer. This Bible totalling about 1400 pages has put a dent into my reading schedule!

Let them decide what for themselves? I do agree that Jesus didn't discriminate and loved every individual, but he also told them to not sin no more!!
