6 Apr 2021 Michael A

“They had an election recently for leadership, and four of the five people were card-carrying members of the Socialistic Party,” North Las Vegas Mayor John Lee told Fox News on Tuesday. “It’s not the party that I grew up with 25 years ago in this environment, and it’s not the party I can stand with anymore.” He was referring to an incident last month where top Nevada Democratic Party staffers resigned at once after supporters of Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) won an election to control most positions on the committee’s board. It came as Judith Whitmer, a member of the Las Vegas chapter of the Democratic Socialists of America, was elected chair of the state party.

The Georgia law expands voting options, such as early voting and ballot drop boxes, beyond the status quo. It’s more permissive in some regards than some Democrat strongholds, such as New York.

With socially acceptable distractions / idols, it is more difficult to identify them as problems; therefore, they may continue to be a hindrance to your fellowship with the Lord far longer than another’s porn is to him / her….

This post contains a link to a lecture series by Elisabeth Elliot on Suffering – Suffering is not for nothing. I linked part 4 and recommend parts 5 and 6 also.

Sky News host, Rowan Dean goes into specifics about how California children will be required to chant to Pagan gods.
