"I walk through this sinful world as a 

pilgrim in a foreign country" - CH Spurgeon

Here it is, the third Friday of 2019 and I've gotten the random bits post out on time a total of once (and that's only if I get around to publishing it today). Many times I spend more time that I care to admit looking for interesting news worthy articles to read and publish, not this week! 

I've been inundated with news that is both hilarious and saddening. A guy walks into a Game Stop and throws a profanity filled childish fit because he wasn't called ma'am. What's the biblical method of handling that? The only thing that came to mind was to ask to see his drivers license, if it said "Female" say "I'm so sorry ma'am" If it said "Male" say "I'm sorry pal, no hard feelings, ok buddy?" You're not going to win a friend if you quote Deuteronomy 22:5

Any option you choose you're not going to win a friend, that person is full of Satans hate and is simply walking around looking to pick a fight. On the other hand I know some true transsexuals, and they're like any other person on earth, just looking to live without bother or hassle, just like you or me. They're not called to love us, so like "Miss Tiffany" they're emotionally free to act like a 2 year old when they don't get what they want. We on the other hand are called to love them and treat them with respect and grace. 1 Corinthians 4:5 It's all a test - like the rest of the news

Mega-pastor James McDonald has taken an "indefinite sabbatical" from preaching and leading at the Harvest Bible Chapel Chicago location. Is this voluntary? Is this just spin to defuse public anger at his actions? Is he going to carry on being Mega-pain McDonald at a HBC outside of Chicago?

Something I've been saying for years: the problem with celebrity Christian music is that it takes the glory from God

It seems like everyone is writing their own version of scripture lately, now the Chinese government is writing their own version of God's word.

More NAR madness: Supernatural Acceleration! Women Rise Up! Possessing the Gates of the Enemy! Joyful Increase! Transitions into the Blessings! Hyperbole! Overstatements! False Teaching!

Even MORE NAR Nonsense: Pete Rose is now a sign of Jesus' second advent!!!
