    8Be sober-minded; be watchful. Your adversary the devil prowls around like a roaring lion, seeking someone to devour. 9Resist him, firm in your faith, knowing that the same kinds of suffering are being experienced by your brotherhood throughout the world. 10And after you have suffered a little while, the God of all grace, who has called you to his eternal glory in Christ, will himself restore, confirm, strengthen, and establish you. 11To him be the dominion forever and ever.
    Amen.

    Yes, that is an important threat. I have just finished watching a two part documentary of German amateur film makers during the nazi regime. Some were from the military and showed mass executions of Jews being being shot and hung.

    Interesting!!
    Why would anyone refuse the offer of being prayed for??
    1 Your prayers aren't genuine/powerful/worthy;
    2 I don't believe in prayer;
    3 I don't deserve it, so don't waste your time;
    4 All is hunky-dory with me & mine, so I don't need your prayer;
    5 Some entirely different reason?????

    That statement came outa left field right. If you are suggesting that I am a Democrat then you’re incorrect.

    Both my wife and my mom were Democrats... both are very spiritual as well as being constitutional in their political views. I was part of the Tea Party and consider that to be the real conservatives.

    Do you see any correlation to today’s party politics?

    From snoops:
    Were the Nazis Socialists?

    There is certain correlation found in the far right and nazis.

    I only offer this not so much to argue about politics (which I care very little about but once was highly involved) but for the readers who would like to gather certain informational tools.

    The change carried in the pocket is two faced.

    Rarely is it a matter of left or right, unless it is supported in a grouping.

    Rather, it is what picture is on top. It doesn't change the value only the presentation.

    The same with politics.

    The old Dems would be seen as conservatives today by Dems, as they pretty much are now ultra liberal bent!

    Most of the time - when people say they will pray for you as oppose to being asked for prayer, they are praying against them and not for their general well-being.

    I get the feeling that Hank was not praying for the Element’s financial welfare so that he too could become a comfortable pensioner but instead was going to pray for Element to recognize that Hank deserves his pension and should not be envious of it.

    One prayer helps Elements while the other one hopes he becomes content in his misery.

    Either way you wish to see it, the prayer was not requested. Indeed it was rejected. You see that clearly right!

    Back to the OP, I was reading this today and it reminded me of this forum post.

    Isaiah 8:11-17

    How about the temptation to a form of godliness without the power thereof? That would be a danger we are facing in this coming year.
