Congresswoman recalls conversion, prayer on marriage issue Associated Press - 4/12/2011 8:20:00 AM PELLA, IA - Congresswoman Michele Bachmann, a potential Republican presidential candidate, has told conservatives in Iowa about her conversion to Christianity and its impact on her politics. The Minnesota congresswoman said she trusted Jesus Christ when she was a teenager and got involved in a Christian club at her high school and a Bible study at her church. "It was an amazing time," she said, as she called her conversion in November 1972 the beginning of "a lifelong path of fellowship." She also recalled the day in 2003 when she heard that the Massachusetts Supr…

Toddler Rushed to Hospital After Reportedly Being Served Alcohol at Applebee's "The family later learned the boy’s alcohol level was .10 – over the legal limit for an adult driver" I would think someone needs to be held accountable for this.

Trump claims pro-life conversion ‘years’ ago - despite endorsing Hillary Clinton by Kathleen Gilbert Mon Apr 11, 2011 14:23 EST Donald Trump has played many roles during his years in the public eye - business magnate, beauty pageant owner, reality TV show host - but few performances have received as much attention as his potential bid to fight Obama for the presidency on the GOP ticket. Trump now rides a surprising wave of popularity, landing a weekly appearance on Fox News as he rises in the polls on a platform focused on challenging President Obama’s claim to be a natural-born American citizen. In states such as New Hampshire, Trump has been shown to draw signifi…

Saucy ex-pizza CEO makes long-shot bid for presidency Cain says he can mobilize more voters than Romney By Ralph Z.

Government Still 'Open for Business' Congressional leaders, with barely an hour to go before a federal government, announced late Friday night they had reached a deal to fund the government through the end of the fiscal year. The deal includes $38.5 billion in spending cuts while leaving the more contention policy matters, such as blocking funding for Planned Parenthood, for a later debate.

Military Sends Out Half-Pay Notice to War Zone This could have been prevented, Mr. Boehner offered Mr. Obama a plan, but Mr. Obama refused, he would rather play politics using our Military forces as his pawn. He is hoping that the republican party will get most of the blame, take the heat.. He risked many democrat congressmen's job with his obamacare, and many of them lost the election, lost their job by sticking up for him. Mr. Obama GAVE the house majority to the republicans on a 'Golden Platter.' I hope it bites him once again, and I believe it just might. Can't the democrats see that Mr. Obama and Mr. Reed will sacrifice them in order to try and get their way? Th…

Bible Study Ends in Bloodshed LAGIUNA BEACH ( Fla.) -- What witnesses say started out with Bible study took a strange turn before ending with the arrest of a 39-year-old Panama City Beach woman. While there are two versions of what happened, deputies say that Hiedi Rhodes was nearly too drunk to tell her version, and that it was vague and didn't match what the other three witnesses told them. That inconsistency, and the testimony of the other three women gathered for the Bible study, is likely what led to her arrest. Deputies arrived to a call for help to find two women in a physical fight inside a home on Laureno Place, in the Laguna Beach area. After breaking up …

Before Article 22 was added to the Constitution, there were no limits to the terms a POTUS could seek. FDR's 3 terms proved to be bad for the country, and so limits were set. But now, there is a move on to repeal Article 22 with an amendment. https://www.popvox.com/bills/us/112/hjres17 What do you think? Will you contact your Rep. to encourage them to vote it down? Term limits are supposed to be imposed by the voters - we vote out a bad elected servant, in theory. But the longevity of many of those in office (and most of them have been detrimental to the country rather than beneficial) proves that limits are not imposed... Should this amendment be added to …

Archaeologists Find 'Gay Caveman' By ninemsn staff April 7, 2011 It has taken five thousand years, but it appears a caveman has finally been able to come clean on his sexual orientation. According to archaeologists, the way the "gay caveman" was buried suggests he was considered more effeminate than other male peers, the Daily Mail reports. The skeleton of the early homo-sapien was recently unearthed during excavations in the Czech Republic, and is believed to date back to between 2900 and 2500 BC. Experts say during that period, men were traditionally buried lying on their right side, with the head pointing towards the west, alongside weapons, hammers and fl…

Japan Disaster Caused by DADT Repeal By Stephanie Samuel Christian Post Reporter Controversial self-proclaimed prophet Cindy Jacobs has linked the natural disasters in Japan to the U.S. repeal of “don’t ask, don’t tell,” and is calling on Americans to repent. In a video last week, Jacobs, president and co-founder of missionary training group Generals International, asserted that her prophetic message that natural disasters would result from the December repeal of the 1993 ban on open homosexuality in the U.S. military has come true. “I know some of you don’t understand the warning that I gave. … When we break God’s laws then it actually causes cycles of nature to …

Military Indoctrinated on Gays Kissing, Behavior By Rowan Scarborough Washington Times March 23, 2011 Four branches of the military have begun sending training material to 2.2 million active and reserve troops as a prelude to opening the ranks to gays, with instructions on, for example, what to do if an officer sees two male Marines kissing in a shopping mall. Key themes are that sexual orientation will no longer be a bar to service, that all service members must respect each other, and that the partners of gay troops will not receive the benefits of heterosexual spouses. “We are going to make [gay ban] repeal training expeditiously,” said Maj. Joel Harper, an Ai…

Obamacare Paid Out $2 Billion to Corporations I fail to understand, how can Mr. Obama have the power, authority, to hand out money in than manner? It seem he is more in a postition of dicator handing out 2 billion dollars like this. Our government is shipwrecked. It may be un-fixable. One thing for sure, it will be busted soon if they keep giving out money like this and or tax increases will be very steep whihc will kill what is left of our economy..

2 arrests in beating of 73-year-old crossing guard I honesty believe that many people of today's world, even some professing Christians, would feel right at home in a big stadium filled with hours of gladiators fighting on a sandy surface. With each fight ending only with the death of one of the gladiators, with blood running everywhere, dragging the dead off the field with hooks, them spreading out sand to cover the blood soaked surface, getting ready for the next gladiators to come out and fight to death.

replenish (v.) mid-14c., replenishen, "provide" with food or drink, also riches, beauty, etc., from Old French repleniss-, extended present-participle stem of replenir "to fill up," from re-, here perhaps an intensive prefix based on the notion of "fill repeatedly," thus "fill completely" (see re-), + -plenir, from Latin plenus "full" (from PIE root *pele- (1) "to fill"). Specifically as "to fill up again, restore to a former amount or condition" by 1610s. Related: Replenished; replenishing; replenishment. And here's the link to the prefix "re" https://www.etymonline.com/word/re- I'm not convinced either way. Evil did exist before man sinned, otherwise God would not have "known good and evil" and the serpent would not have been an evil entity to have tempted Eve. And "death" was a known concept, otherwise the serpent and Eve would not have discussed it. The Bible says that death passed upon Adam and Eve.. I don't recall reading where it says that animals had not yet died. I'm just curious as to what happened to all them "dinosaurs". Except for crocodilians, they were completely annihilated long ago and I don't believe any of them were on the ark, no matter what Kent Hovind says. -

Yes, I love listening to Bruce. He brought real truth to what it means to be an actual Christian. I really appreciated how he pointed out Platonic and Socrates world views in Christian religion. He's a real life-giver.
