Matthew 28:19-20: instructs followers to "make disciples" through teaching and invitation, not coercion. Jesus taught that others will only listen to Christians if they embody the love and compassion of God, gaining the respect of others and opening their mind when they preach the gospel, as opposed to Mercy CULTure style anti-Christ heresy demonization approach of saying there's "invasions" of classes of people that Christians must rise up against, inciting followers into action through hate, fear, chaos and division, rather than peace love and unity, forcing Christianity into government and schools (hate-thy-neighbor anti-Christ values)
Galatians 3:28: divisions like "Jew or Gentile… slave or free… male and female" don’t make anyone worth less.
Genesis 1:27: "So God created mankind in his own image"
Colossians 3:11: "no Greek or Jew…" (no ethnic ranking); "Christ is all."
Exodus 22:20-22: "Do not mistreat or abuse foreigners who live among you. Remember, you were foreigners in Egypt."
1 John 4:20: claiming "I love God" while hating people is condemned.
Mercy culture IS the Pharisees:
They were hypocrites, “they do not practice what they preach.” (Matthew 23:3)
They showed off their religion as a show, “Everything they do is done for people to see.” (Matthew 23:5)
They craved political dominance, “you love the… important seats… and respectful greetings.” (Luke 11:43)
They would fixate on minor things like gender and ignore the core teachings of Jesus (peace, love and unity), “neglected… justice and mercy and faithfulness.” (Matthew 23:23)
They would try to act honest publicly but were wicked people, “inside you are full of greed and wickedness.” (Luke 11:39)
They would exploit marginalized classes while trying to act holy, “devour widows’ houses… make lengthy prayers.” (Mark 12:40)
John 8:6-8: "He that is without sin among you, let him first cast a stone"
James 2:1: "Show no partiality" / favoritism.
Leviticus 19:33-34: "Do not mistreat" the foreigner; "Love them as yourself."
Deuteronomy 10:18-19: God "loves the foreigner"… "you are to love" foreigners too.
Acts 10:34-35: God "does not show favoritism," and welcomes people "from every nation."
Zechariah 7:9-10: "Do not oppress" widows, orphans, foreigners, or the poor.
Isaiah 1:17: "Seek justice," "defend the oppressed."
Proverbs 31:8-9: "Speak up" for those who can’t defend themselves; "ensure justice."
Proverbs 14:31: Oppressing the poor is treated as insulting their Maker; kindness honors God.
Romans 12:17-18, 21: "Do not repay… evil," "live at peace," "overcome evil with good."
Matthew 7:1-2: "Do not judge" in a condemning way.
Mark 12:31: "Love your neighbor as yourself."
Matthew 7:12: The Golden Rule: treat others how you want to be treated.
Ephesians 4:32: "Be kind and compassionate… forgiving."

Good Morning from Boone- he was left at Z Bones dog park and wound up with us. He is 100% a Fort Worth dog. He hopes you are taking time to sniff around and maybe a nap later on.
Could have probably hit on this guy's trifecta without the caption, no?

Fake-Christian ultranationalists use Jesus as a personal shield from the consequences of their hate speech, promoting hate thy neighbor anti-Christ values against every teaching of Jesus. They live in a mental model of lies and delusion bred from echo chambers, bringing hatred and bigotry into our community while claiming a narrative of moral high ground.

our group is full of kind, artsy, gamer, friendly, funny people who love to read.
Lady whining at downtown election site
Voted downtown. (Tarrant Plaza.) Some lady, and I heard her name many times but shall not repeat it, was complaining constantly because she voted in Dem primary initially (Talarico/Crockett) and REALLY wanted to vote in this GOP one (Cornyn/Paxton). Man, it got HEATED! She was telling the volunteers to call "state authorities." EGAD.

Predictions on what's seemingly going to be Paxton vs. Talarico
With Thomas Massie getting ousted last night in Kentucky, showcasing again that a very specific Fox News/OANN viewer will do whatever Trump says to do, it definitely looks like Ken Paxton (endorsed by DT recently) will get the nod in Texas to face Talarico. Obviously that's not definite, but it seems like he will with said endorsement.
I do not think Talarico can win Tarrant County, although Allred did beat Cruz in this county, so it's possible. The inside of 820 is blue-purple, I'd argue.
Will be an interesting showdown between Christianity (you might argue "performative Christianity") on one side and a very different form on the other (where you also might argue it's performative). I hope for many Mercy Culture sheep/wolf AI and photoshop mess-ups.
I would assume Paxton gets 52-54 percent in Tarrant. You?
(Statewide I would also guess he wins, although I don't see myself voting for him.)
Frisco Chamber mayoral forum turns tense over Sharia law, rhetoric and city identity
The Frisco Chamber runoff forum between Mark Hill and Rod Vilhauer became one of the sharpest exchanges of the race so far. The discussion moved far beyond traffic and development and into debates over Sharia law, campaign rhetoric, public safety and the political direction of the city.
One of the more notable moments came when Vilhauer was asked to name a city council vote from the last year that he supported and did not identify one. The night also included exchanges over bankruptcy filings, undocumented worker allegations and claims involving CAIR support.
