"I walk through this sinful world as a 

pilgrim in a foreign country" - CH Spurgeon

I like football, I'm not crazy about football, but I do enjoy a game if one of my two teams is playing. I am originally from the Buffalo NY area, which means that I have two teams to root for:

    1. The Buffalo Bills

    2. Any team playing against the Patriots

Which means going in to Super Bowl LII I should have been an Eagles fan, had I bothered to watch the game. But like an increasing number of people I didn't care. Being a veteran and friend of many a disabled veteran I found myself not caring about multi millionaires and their pet peeves.  

I could go on and on but in the end it's not about freedom of speech, it's about respect. If you want to say it's about freedom of speech, then this is me being free with speech by saying you're wrong, it's about respect. There are things bigger than their issues and maybe the NFL would be better place if everyone with a million dollar paycheck had emulated JJ Watt, and instead of sitting down they should have stood up and made a difference. That being said I now wish I had paid more attention to the Eagles. After reading this article and this article and this article I found reason to enjoy the Eagles, maybe I'll watch one of their games next year... if they play the Bills (or the patriots)

Ok, this video is advertised as Dr. Michael Brown Another Spiritual Snake Oil Pitchman for Sid Roth, but in reality it should be titled 2017 False Teacher Of The Year trying for a repeat in 2018!

Murder, assault, and arson numbering among almost 100 attacks which targeted Christians in 2017 - where was this at; Iran? Egypt? India? Nope, it was Germany. And in France anti-Christian acts accounting for 90 per cent of attacks on religious buildings and institutions

What do Rob Bell and Jen Hatmaker have in common? They're both trying to lead you away from the God of truth. Stan wrote an article on this also. I'm guessing that the Holy Spirit wants the word out on this.

And while we are speaking of heretics, there's that heretic Rob Bell again
