Church of Christ receives lots of criticism, but the more research I do, I see their positions actually agree with what the Bible (i.e. God) says, way more than the various other denominations

My research shows they are: Anti-egalitarian. Anti-dispensationalist (no separate salvation or destiny for Israel). Anti-charismatic. Anti-Calvinist. Anti-evolution. Pro-Adult Baptism. This is the only Christian Church Group that actually tells the truth about what it actually says in the Bible and therefore what God says. If you believe the bible is inerrant with no contradictions and is God breathed and want a denomination the teaches what the Bible teaches the Church of Christ looks like it might be that. The only other possible option might be the Apostolic Christian Church (American or Nazarene). Or perhaps some Baptist denominations that are not Dispensationalist nor Calvinist.

Mike Washington was a STEAL we know Kubiak loves running a 2 back system

This is not hindsight I called it draft day Washington was a steal Kubiak loves running a 2 back system we saw what it does last year when you have 2 backs splitting the load and what happens if 1 goes down at crucial point in the season. Having 2 solid TEs is also important in his system.

of course it was a female VAR official who knows nothing about football

Verdict: This was not a foul block by Germany's Anton, and this goal should have stood. It was both a poor intervention by the VAR and an equally disappointing decision from the on-field referee to overturn his original decision and disallow the goal. Germany defender Anton was entitled to hold his ground in this situation, and it was in fact the Paraguay keeper who turned into the German, going to ground once he felt contact as opposed to any foul action by Anton. This was a poor process and outcome delivered by the match officials.

The creeping disease in the German Players they are slow. They are not tough either.

The German players look slow out there. I don't if there is a fix for that. But they do not play tough either they are being outrun and outmuscled by every team.

How is it possible for Musiala to be fouled on every single play? Literally any time he touches the ball anywhere on the field teams have been instructed to foul him immediately? WTF FIFA?

Nagelsman bad moves

(1) VS. ECUADOR He starts the regular team vs Ecuador so they will LOSE confidence

He brings on the subs too late so they play to LOSE

Why not start with a sub team so they can really get confidence

(2) Neuer is washed

(3) STILL won't admit he was wrong about Undav he needs to start every game

(4) Amiri and Lewling played great HE DOES NOT play them at all

Honest question: Is Calvinist election different from Lutheran election?

It seems to me that Lutherans who believe in election say:

CHRIST (cross + resurrection)
          ↓
GOSPEL preached to all people
          ↓
HOLY SPIRIT works through Word
          ↓
FAITH in Christ (some believe, some resist)
          ↓
UNION with Christ
          ↓
SALVATION
          ↓
ELECTION = seen “in Christ”

Key idea:
➡ Christ and the Gospel come first
➡ Election is understood through faith in Christ

While Calvinists say:

GOD ELECTS individuals (before creation)
          ↓
CHRIST dies effectively for the elect
          ↓
HOLY SPIRIT regenerates elect
          ↓
FAITH is produced by regeneration
          ↓
UNION with Christ
          ↓
SALVATION

Key idea:
➡ God’s election comes first
➡ Faith is the result of regeneration

The difference in one line

  • Lutheran: Christ → faith → election seen in Christ
  • Calvinist: election → regeneration → faith in Christ

2 obvious reasons moving to Indiana is good for BEARS as a football product

  1. The owners have no money outside of football. That means that they cannot spend a lot of money on coaches, or FAs or extensions etc (escrow rules). They will get more money in pocket from moving to Indiana then staying in Illinois. If they spend the money on the team rather than pocketing it chance or Bears to have a better football product as long as they hire the right people. Team can have the most money but if have wrong people it won't matter.

  2. No one who is a Bears fan will stop supporting the Bears because of this move. If anything they might gain a few more fans in the rest of Indiana they can now have an NFC team or 2nd team to support. Might get slightly more merchandize sales.
