Just going to leave this here

I am going to just leave this here, bold added for emphasis to my point.  We are subject to the rulers and authorities, to be obedient.  When we are not, we run afoul of God's plan.  Bad things happen, and when we continue to push foolish arguments and quarrels about the law, we are self condemned.

Titus 3:1-11  Remind the people to be subject to rulers and authorities, to be obedient, to be ready to do whatever is good, to slander no one, to be peaceable and considerate, and always be gentle toward everyone.
    At one time we too were foolish, disobedient, deceived and enslaved by all kinds of passions and pleasures.  We lived in malice and envy, being hated and hating one another.  But when the kindness and love of God our Savior appeared, he saved us, not because of righteous things we had done, but because of his mercy.  He saved us through the washing of rebirth and renewal by the Holy Spirit, whom he poured out on us generously through Jesus Christ our Savior, so that, having been justified by his grace, we might become heirs having the hope of eternal life.  This is a trustworthy saying.  And I want you to stress these things, so that those who have trusted in god may be careful to devote themselves to doing what is good.  These things are excellent and profitable for everyone.
    But avoid foolish controversies and genealogies and arguments and quarrels about the law, because these are unprofitable and useless.  Warn a divisive person once, and then warn them a second time.  After that, have nothing to do with them.  You may be sure that such people are warped and sinful; they are self-condemned.

This is your first warning Black Lives Matter, Al Sharpton, Donald Trump, Joe Walsh, Fox News, MSNBC, CNN, Rev. Barbour, and all the rest consumed with perpetuating this chaos.  I should have done it weeks ago.  All things are not right, but God works all things to the good of all.  I don't understand the plan, and that does not mean anyone's death is a good thing.  There is a real Devil and enemy, and he hunts and prowls like a roaring lion.

But, there is more God than Devil, and it has always been so.  Nothing now is more evil than before.  We have not yet reached the pinnacle, which is killing the Son of God, for being perfect.  We are not there.  And, whatever else may or may not be true, God is in control.

If you don't believe in God, go busy yourself with being foolish, disobedient, deceived and enslaved by all kinds of passions and pleasures.  I will not.  Perhaps I have been.  The perfection of God's grace is that He forgives us our sins, no matter how many times we sin.  So, for what I have done that is sinful, I humbly ask pardon and forgiveness.  If you do not know how to meet God, where you are, please just reach out to me.  I will make the introductions, or find you someone that can.

God Loves You And So Do I.
