T.W.W., the wisdom has been there thru out millenia, but it appears you never grasped it.

Ecclesiastes 1:9 What has been will be again, what has been done will be done again; there is nothing new under the sun. ### TWW complaining that with new leadership a church made changes to its governance. So let me get this straight, an organization changes leadership and then makes changes to the organization itself. And this is new how?### Or does T.W.W. want to try and make the case this is unique to Calvinists? BOSH I say. ### Read and re-read Eccl every year. It will help prepare you for the reality of our fallen natures.

MY FAVORITE ARTICLE THIS MORNING; WOULD BE PANNED BY I-MONK OF COURSE

BLOGS DON'T LAST FOREVER

a) Prayers for Jeff Dunn and his family. Apparently Jeff's life hasn't been easy for at least a few years and now he is in hospice. If he accepted Jesus as Lord and King, his joyous eternity is assured. ### b] Chaplain Mike announce the end of the blog as of Jan. 1, 2021, about 3 months hence. The election will be over taking away 80 percent of the blog's energy. All that would be left is complaining about the Evangelicals. I've never seen any joy in being a "none."

PANIC OR TRUST THE SCIENCE - UPDATE

GEO MIKE, whom I hope is feeling well, again leads the attack on the Evangelicals who express doubts about masks and social distancing BUT HERE ARE THE FACTS as to the deadliness of this flu in these United States The CDC last week posted its new estimate of the survival rates for COVID-19, broken up by age. This link put those number in clear terms: 0-19 years: 99.997% 20-49 years: 99.98% 50-69 years: 99.5% 70+ years: 94.6% Those numbers are practically identical to those of the flu. In other words, practically no one dies from it. It makes some people sick for a week or so, and then goes away. And we have destroyed western civilization over this. It boggles the mind (for those who are still using it). The worst part is that no one will believe me. Instead, too many will be outraged that anyone would even hint that this virus is not the plague. https://behindtheblack.com/behind-the-black/points-of-information/survival-rates-for-covid-19/### UPDATE: An Ohio woman Alecia Kitts was tased and arrested at an 8th grade football game after not complying with a state mask mandate and resisting arrest. MY GUESS: Internet commenters are fine with that.

Dissenting comment

Comment from recovering Baptist: ### So you're trusting the "narrative" of a wicked man who blasphemes the blood of Christ, lies that we can take the mark and still be saved, and tells his congregation there IS no pandemic (I recently lost a friend to Covid),and as if ALL THIS us not enough, actually tells his congregation "The good news is you're NOT wearing masks and are not social distancing." The devil knows his time to speak through John MacArthur is short (he's now 81), and both John AND Satan are no longer content in merely leading people to their SPIRITUAL death; they want to lead them to their PHYSICAL death too.

The End of Planet Earth

Pretty interesting discussion about the so-called Climate Change catastrophe. Most of the commenters do appear to realize that what would be required to change things is simply beyond human effort. Unity among humans doesnt exist in sufficient numbers to make the changes plausible.### However, if you believe in the sovereignty of God, you do not have to worry.

JUSTICE WITHOUT JESUS

Chaplain Mike's Sunday post references an article out of Christianity Today that starts with this quote: "We have people who have made justice their God, yet another instance of the litany of humanity’s idol worship. We have people defining justice as they see fit rather than wrestling with what Biblical justice is. And, in the end, we have people abandoning Christ." ### There are numerous people on the "discernment" blogs such as I-monk who trumpet their leaving of Evangelicalism, then becoming a "none" and the final step, becoming a "done" and renouncing the faith. I've always thought that to be a great sadness. When you renounce the faith, as I once did, you end up empty and alone. It was a bad time in my life.
