Faux News always manufacturing controversy.
The point is politicians whose support is based on religion & not the issues, then ask them question about their faiths & see if it is true and not a ruse for support.
There's clips of politicians supporting 10 commandments and when asked to name them, could only name 2 or 3 them, like the obvious ones like don't kill, steal & lie.
If a politician bases their career on religion then ask questions to see if they are truly religious & know the bible.

And if you want to know why you do not understand what the bible is say just continue to read Romans..." For although they knew God, they neither glorified him as God nor gave thanks to him, but their thinking became futile and their foolish hearts were darkened. 22 Although they claimed to be wise, they became fools"
And finally with Rev...the dragon is satan and there is NO notion of them destroying the world as Jesus throws both in the pit of Fire.

@MBAYMZTU And as far as Revelations...you are taking it literally which just shows that you are blinded to the word. Revelations is more to glorify the second coming of Jesus. If you want to know about end times you have to read Daniel, 1 and 2 Thes, and much more. Unfortunately you will not understand it (as you have shown) and this is because God demands faith and it is through faith in Christ Jesus that God manifests himself in his chosen and reveals all and speaks through his word.

@MBAYMZTU - You are completely incorrect. Romans 13 is telling you that you need "to submit to the authorities, not only because of possible punishment but also as a matter of conscience". Why do you not rob a store? B/c it is the right thing to not do that. And all leaders are appointed by God...good and bad. For instance Pharah was a harsh persecutor of the Jewish people in Egypt but God placed him there specifically to be used so God " may perform these miraculous signs"

I disagree with your interpretation, but okay. How about Romans which basically says all governments are placed there by God, and being rebellious to these governments sends you to hell? Or the notion that a dragon and the anti christ will destroy the world in Revelations?

@MBAYMZTU Peter rebukes the man for his lying, not for keeping back a portion of the money he gained from the sale of his property. Peter’s words to Ananias not only show him to be free to use his property as he chooses, but they also clarify the freedom which all of the saints had in the matter of their possessions.

@MBAYMZTU Peter affirmed the right of private property. This was NOT communism, each owned his possessions. Ananias had complete freedom to use his property any way he chose. He could have kept it or sold it without sin. Even when he sold it he was just as free in the use of the proceeds obtained from the sale. He could have kept it all or any part of it. His sin was NOT the amount of money given or the fact he kept some. His sin was that he lied.

@MBAYMZTU You need to seek to understand the events which are described in the light of their context. First the church had prayed for a boldness in their profession of the gospel and God graciously granted it. But the boldness of the church in its profession was also practiced with regard to its possessions. In response to their prayers for boldness, the presence of God was manifested b and they were subsequently filled by the Holy Spirit (Acts 4:1-31).
Anybody who believes the earth is 6,000 years old is a fucking idiot. Plain and simple.
