    Hopefully, I will be obedient to the leading of the Holy Spirit to comply with God's revelation. Firstly, I have to identify my enemy and give an invitation to a meal, including a drink. Have you had any success in doing that? If so, what was the outcome? If not, why not?

    Perhaps we both have had some success, though possibly unaware. As far as the outcome, if successful, then the Glory belongs to God, and if a failure, then that is on me. Agreed, I pray the Holy Spirit would lead me to do Gods will.

    The thread is about whether or not certain political views or moral and potentially sinful. Please stay on topic.

    I'm sorry. Yes, I believe some political views can be sinful. A persons "view" of something is another term for thought, and thoughts are from the heart. The Lord judges whats in our heart. That's my view.:)

    Not saying your conversation wasn't a good one, just didn't want things to drift too far. :Thumbsup

    He leaves out a host of problems that existed both before and after the war that taints his presentation. It is just as likely that the RvW issue will have the same sort of history, with perspectives misaligned with actual current thought and practice.
