Christians told to renounce Jesus or be refused coronavirus aid - 'Let your God take care of your family'

Well -- 'we' can have peaceful 'protests' or we can speak up Before the laws are actually laws.

Just previously a poster mentioned that 'gay' marriages are now legal -- but That depends on what state a person lives in. And it passed by a Very narrow margin. The states are very divided about it. Which says that Just Enough gays do want it for it to be voted in.

And it has been legal for a guy who decides to identify as a gal , to use the same rest-room facilities. And that met with an uproar. And there are more male/female rest rooms available.

So -- we Do become more diligent with our kids in public restrooms -- we should be Anyway.

We need to continue to voice our opinions. Challenge in a civilized way. And sometimes there Are no Easy answers.

In the process of all of this -- we find out what's really important and Why.
 
There is the proof everyone has been looking for!! If Jesus is not the way, the truth and the light, WHY WOULD THEY CARE? Haha! They by telling Christians this are for one- telling us that the coronavirus is more than a virus- it is spiritual warfare. And for 2, they are admitting their fear of those who believe in Christ. Christians, we are POWERFUL when we gather and pray. Social distancing has the SOLE purpose of eliminating our gathering to strengthen their army. We must not allow it. We must gather at all cost. Put on the Armor! Double your prayer time. It's about to get ugly.
 
Why do they persist in chatting up salvation via politics? Because the power of the lie is strong. Rather,

Come out from among them, and be ye separate, and touch not the unclean thing, and I will receive you.
 
@ backNforth -- because it's in the world that we live in. Right now - it's a very political world that happens to Need salvation.

And, yes, believers Do need to come out from among the world -- if there's no difference between us and the world -- then there's something wrong with the way We are living. But we have to be somewhat intermingled in order To be a witness to them. If we're close enough To Touch the unclean thing, then we're probably Too Close.
 
...believers Do need to come out from among the world...But we have to be somewhat intermingled...
No, either we're of the world, or we're not of the world - there's no "almost preg". Too many have been "too close" for too long...

We're about to reap some heavy consequences of serving two masters.

I don't think that is what she means. I take it as obviously we are not of the world, but we are called to bring people to Christ by witnessing and by example. We have to try to save as many of the lost as we can because Jesus DOES NOT WANT people to perish. People " of the world" are still God's creation. Say there is a fire on the top floor of a building and you are up there but you know the way out! You are running down the stairs and you pass a blind man of the world on his way up to the fire. Do you let him find out when it is too late, or do you at least try to warm him of the danger ahead? He might not listen to you and go anyways but what it he trusts you and says " please help me! I do not know the way but I will follow you." Would that be worth it? Is that serving two masters? No, it is getting close enough to the source to save the lost and that is why we are here. If we let him go on our own assuming he is not worthy, the loss of that soul is on OUR hands because we are held to a different standard. The Lord is no respecter of persons but for those who know better who do nothing?? Big no- no.
I know that the Rapture and The Day of the Lord are 2 separate events but is the Lord going to be angry at both?
 
...we are called to bring people to Christ by witnessing and by example. We have to try to save as many of the lost as we can...
Yep.

...Is that serving two masters?
Nope. And I never said such was.

You've missed the point with that red herring.

Jesus witnessed to those harlots, drunkards and thieves; he didn't come to party with them.

Here is what is really frightening, "We cannot serve "Two Masters" either it is one or the other! There is no splitting the fence. For It is "Impossible" to serve "two Gods. We do not have "The Ability" to do so, because GOD the Creator, said so. done deal! No matter wha,t one may think. So how many times, we who are true "Christians" have served The Devil,
American Standard Version
No man can serve two masters; for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to one, and despise the other. Ye cannot serve God and mammon.
1 Kings 18:21
Then Elijah approached all the people and said, "How long will you waver between two opinions? If the LORD is God, follow Him. But if Baal is God, follow him." But the people did not answer a word.
Galatians 1:10
Am I now seeking the approval of men, or of God? Or am I striving to please men? If I were still trying to please men, I would not be a servant of Christ.

James 4:4
You adulteresses! Do you not know that friendship with the world is hostility toward God? Therefore, whoever chooses to be a friend of the world renders himself an enemy of God.

But many have explain this type of thinking away. and God did not mean this way of thinking.
If so, then who are we following?

To renounce Jesus even by "christians" is nothing new, They just came straight out and said it. others dress it up with makeup and lipstick.

You're spot on. Worse, is the truth that the majority is hellbound -- it's scripture:

Enter ye in at the strait gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat: Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it. (Mat. 7:13-14)

Quite sobering.

The harvest truly is great, but the labourers are few: pray ye therefore the Lord of the harvest, that he would send forth labourers into his harvest (Luke 10:2).

The Lord is allowing this season to proceed, in order to increase the harvest, else he would have come already. Meanwhile, the unrighteous are without excuse (Rom. 1:20).
 

Matthew 10:33 But whosoever shall deny me before men, him will I also deny before my father which is in heaven.

Death from all causes have dropped significantly, but covid surges? Be careful what you believe.
