    And thus YOUR and many folks in the church's problem. Somebody has convinced you all that patriotism( the 2016 election cycle Fox News talking head buzzword), the love of country, should be more important to the Christian than love of PEOPLE. [​IMG]

    I wonder if Rev would resist raising taxes to increase funding for the military?

    The love of country is love of people.

    Jesus judges the heart of individuals not groups.

    Right. And corporations are people too.:rolleyes: Pure insanity. The love of people is the love of people. The love of country isn't tangible unless you're talking about the dirt.

    That doesn't do much for your definition of a country as people.

    And you're Scripturally wrong anyhow as God often judged the people of Israel corporately.

    Of course he wouldn't. The military as the exception is a talking point from the Fox News mother ship. He can't go against that and keep his ivory white political conservative card.

    If we ended all non-constitutional spending - there would be plenty of funds for the miltiary

    and the military is one of the few activities authorized by the Constitution
