Say the Huntington Beach City Council,in an unusually reverent mood one fine day,
decides to post an inspirational phrase in the Council Chambers,
to show the depth of religious faith that drives them to serve their community.
Do they choose
“Do unto others as you would have them do unto you?”
Not.
“Let he who is without sin cast the first stone?”
Not.
“Blessed are the poor in spirit?”
Hell not.
They choose a phrase that jumps out at them
as they contemplate a stack of hundred-dollar bills
after a long hard day of
Wags from Teddy Roosevelt to Chris Rock
have remarked on the inappropriateness
of us Americans putting God on our money;
while the horror film “They Live“
reveals a subliminal message on currency reading “This Is Your God.”
Meanwhile Fountain Valley wit Gus Ayer suggests
the HB plaque read
IN GOD WE TRUST – ALL OTHERS PAY CASH.
What say you, big guy?
“No servant can serve two masters;
for either he will hate the one, and love the other;
or else he will hold to the one, and despise the other.
Ye cannot serve God and mammon.”
“…no servant can serve two masters….”
Vern, will YOU serve Jesus or the money?”
Also, I have to answer this question myself!
Let’s not be ashamed of proclaiming Jesus Christ in both private and public places…… He has died for all of us and we need to love Him as He had first loved us.
We shall have no fear but only great confidence in His mighty name.

You christians are so predictable. He didn’t die for my sins, because I don’t sin. He died for your sins because, being christian, you believe in the concept. Some people don’t.
Your attitude that fact and faith are one and the same would be laughable if it was not so dangerous.

#3, You said ” I don’t sin…”
What is SIN?
Sin is an affront to the christian god, i.e. breaking the 10 commandments. I don’t believe in any of these things, therefore I do not sin.

#4, The 9th commandment states: I shell have non-sex with my neighbor!
Notwithstanding your believes, had you?
