ZNP,

Then you’ll be happy to know that the USA is poised to become a net exporter of oil in the near future:

“A remarkable ability to unlock new resources cost-effectively pushes combined United States oil and gas output to a level 50% higher than any other country has ever managed; already a net exporter of gas, the US becomes a net exporter of oil in the late 2020s.”

Still you are missing the most obvious explanation why Assad and his chemical infrastructure were bombed. He gassed his own people.

Did you see the movie about concussions in the NFL? "He may have died from a heart attack, but that is not why he died".

Unless you are willing to find out the root cause you cannot be a peace maker.

ZNP,

The root cause as I have already expressed is that little strip of land called Israel. Everything that happens particularly in the Levant is related to that tiny country with big implications.

Yet, Syria got bombed because Assad gassed his own people.

James Comey says President Trump is a serial liar, treats women like "meat" and is a "stain" on all who work for him, in an ABC News interview. But hey, I could have told you that. The big news is that Evangelical Christians love the Trump as if he were their daddy. We ex-local churchers know what worshiping a powerful cult leader is like. We've been there, so, we understand.

I meet with an Evangelical church of a couple of thousand. I am not aware of anyone I meet with who "loves Trump as if he were their daddy".

Not only is this statement of yours not factual, it doesn't even align with your previous references:

White evangelicals who believe in Christian nationalism.

As I have pointed out "White Evangelicals" are a very small subset of Evangelicals, so to describe the entire group based on these is disingenuous. Also, I have never heard "christian nationalism" preached in any church I have been in. Therefore I suspect it makes this an even smaller group.

Why not just call them "white supremacists" rather than "Evangelicals". That at least would be far more accurate a description. By being so transparently inaccurate one would get the impression your goal was to slander Evangelical Christians. If instead you describe the group as "white supremacists" the impression would be to provide a fair warning concerning Trump's base of support.

Comey is like King Saul, head and shoulders above the others, and has the same "quality" of character.

Comey was really talking about his beloved friends Bill and Hillary.

I am sure that is a very useful viewpoint for anyone not involved in running this country and representing all Americans.

Yes you have expressed your opinion on this matter repeatedly and confidently affirmed that this is what the Bible says, yet to my recollection you have not provided a single Bible prophecy that might assist in US foreign policy. Forgive me for being so frank, but after my experience in the LRC I am not willing for someone to tell me "trust me, this is what the Bible says". Why don't you back up your position with these prophecies you keep claiming are there.

To what extent people running this country understand the nation of Israel’s role in world events is debatable. Nevertheless, America is a close ally for a reason, understood or not.

The reasons for the bombing of Assad’s chemical infrastructure is more obvious to everyone with the possible exception for those who view climate change as the cause of and explanation for every ill and evil in the world.

Please provide your Bible prophecies to support your position, or is this just your opinion?

For example: "God is not mocked, whatever a man sows this shall he reap". We have sown war and destruction, we are also reaping this. We have sown rape and pillage, we are also reaping this. We have set up puppet dictators and wow, who would have thought that other countries would meddle in our elections to do the same to us. I do not see how any of this is "blessing Israel".

The book of Revelation prophesies that a bowl will be poured out on the Sun and it will be given to burn man with fire and great heat. We poured CFC's into the atmosphere and as a result the Sun burns us with UV radiation. We have poured greenhouse gases into the atmosphere and as a result the sun burns us with great heat (not quite yet -- that is still a promise for the very near future). As a result of this pollution the book of Revelation prophesies that there will be great death on land and in the ocean (again -- what we expect from UV radiation and Climate change) it also prophesies that people get cancer (emerods) and hide from the Sun.

Or, the Lord's second coming will be "as the days of Noah" a prophecy echoed in the Time magazine cover where they made the Earth Time's "man of the year".

Or how about "in the last times grievous times,..." I could go on, but I would like to hear your Bible prophecies that you keep referring to.

Who is the "WE" you are talking about?

What "man" are you referring to?

Is this how you interpret scripture?

I probably would not object to man made actions contributing to some of the calamities in the end times. I don’t agree with climate change as the explanation for all of it. I mean really, the Noahic flood was brought on by climate change? It is better to use the explanations from the Bible than Time magazine... you know what I mean?

Concerning Israel. Let’s start with the scriptures I provided for the very purpose of conversation in post # 3157. What do you think those verses reveal about Israel?
