Bible Discussion Thread

What does the Bible and God say about seeking justice like to have a job for police to do in investigative cases to cause the criminally insane and killers be brought to justice in order to stop them if they have to shoot them to stop them

Oletha, every time I was caught speeding, I was. I waited , got my ticket and to work on time too. I wish my car beeped when I speed :/

I don't know why people can't admit wrong when they do wrong? Every city has a CIVIL COURT, which is free if you choose to represent yourself.

The policeman has to attend to give his account. It's all done indoors, no violence, screaming, cell phone videos. A room full of witnesses. It's done before a judge who listens to both sides and then rules.

If you lose, the county clerk can help you pay out the ticket monthly till it's paid.

It saddens all of us to see these violent encounters on tv. Parents have the purse strings and should teach the children the laws and customs, penalties for sin and payment to the victims. ITS ALL IN THE BOOK OF DEUTERONOMY. If our church doesn't teach it, it falls upon the parents to teach it. My Daddy did more than that. :O

Kids will learn if they themselves have to go to court monthly to make those paymentsWITH MONEY THEY HAD TO EARN. Good time to get your roof fixed, trees trimmed, fence slats fixed outside windows washed__if you help pay. Life lessons.

It looks to me like Our Country is voting to defund the Police (less officers to call in emergencies).

We need to call our elected officials and demand More police protection.

If we just vote for a party because we always have, they may not be doing what they say they'll do. Empty Promises. It's not illegal to switch party affiliation if they aren't doing what they promised. Forms at the Post Office. Let's quit screaming in the streets and hit back in the elections. Make it count. They work for us.

Isaiah 5 says: Evil men prosper, when Good men (and women), DO NOTHING.

God works through us too. If we know to do right and we don't do anything; we get our reward. Nowadays politicians promise lots and lots, but nothing gets done. Yet they spend our poor tax dollars like we're all rich.

Our immigration system is fatally broken. It used to be a legal way to renounce past countries and declare allegiance to the USA only. We have to pay tax dollars for that too.

Go back to the source. You're not only voting for yourself (or not voting). Those are our Tax Dollars.

HIRE someone with a good record, and not a lot of empty promises__that depend on blind faith and deep pockets.

The Bible says to obey the Government, and those who have RULE over you. That's speaking on the Churches we attend. Who have to give an account to GOD. If they're silent, we are. Or are we?

My conscience says to vote; no matter what the weather is doing. Trust God and commit your doings to Him.

We vote for the kids futures. They removed American History, Civics, and other Good, Godly subjects from our schools so we wouldn't know our roots and freedoms. Who did that? Teach your children at home what being American means.

Mishael

Thanks Mishael, Speaking from the viewpoint of a recently retired public school teacher, I concur that, if possible, teach your children at home or send them to a private school that espouses your values and expectations for an education for your children. But, even if you can do this, do not abandon your community. Vote. Be involved in local politics and get your voice heard, show up to school board meetings, because you are still a tax payer and have a say in what happens in our public schools. Find out what is going on in your local public school and write letters to the editors of your local papers and to your senator and representative about these matters that are concerning.

The last 10 years of my teaching showed a steady swing in policies and agendas to the far left. The change in direction was very substantial and to the point that I knew I could no longer teach in the public sector. God gave me a way out when schools closed for covid and I have been able to be out of the teaching field for the past two years. I have been able to retire now that I have reached 65. I am thankful that God got mw out of a situation that was so concerning for me and I did not have to be expected to teach things that go against my moral convictions to little ones.

But to many of you here, your children are young and still in school or about to enter school soon. Please, believe me when I say that what goes on in the schools now is very different than when you were in school. Students hit, hurt, injure staff and other students every day in most schools and these students are not removed from the classroom for long, nor disciplined appropriately to deter these behaviors from happening. The same students continue in these behaviors day after day, year after year, and ALL students suffer from their behavior problems. Teacher's hands are tied as to what can be done to these students when they are aggressive. Also, students daily disrupt learning and set a bad example for others.
