"There is little Benjamin with his ruler". Reply Ronw13, Oregon Denise, Durango (1/1/20) Point well made Denise, Durango, king Solomon would have used the word, season ( eth ) appointed time, time of visitation, Solomon's transition to the throne. " A man hath joy by the answer of his mouth: and a word spoken in due season, how good it is !" Solomon was ravished by one eye and one chain. As Paul stated it comes from "due measure" season ( kairos ) a time, a period, posessed of certain characteristics, a time of fulfillment of prophecy. These are the days and have returned again, the feller has come upon many trees, yet now, the oak caste its fruit in his season. " The Lord God hath given me the tongue of the learned, that I should speak a word in season to him that is weary: he wakeneth morning by morning, he wakeneth mine ear to hear as the learned." 2 Reply Ronw13, Oregon Gustavo, Atlanta (12/31/19) Opportunity and prosperity have changed many minds today, Liberty and Freedom are colorblind. Your statement is very narrow minded instilling hate. WWG1WGA to MAGA to KAG. Reply Ronw13, Oregon 12/31/19 re: Bertrand Russell quote Spoken like a true Qadesh hedonism. Such individuals elected to public office, have brought about the destruction of a moral society. This being seen clearly in the world today. 1 Reply Ronw13, Oregon 12/31/19 re: Alexander Hamilton quote One of Hamilton's better statements, yet shows the sting of conviction by the old parchments and musty records, " For when the Gentiles, which have not the law, do by nature the things contained in the law, these, having not the law, are a law unto themselves: Which show the work of the law written in their hearts, their conscience also bearing witness, and their thoughts the mean while accusing or else excusing one another." " Art thou called being a servant? care not for it: but if thou mayest be made free, use it rather." Remove not the sacred text, least the foundation be lost. Reply Ronw13, Oregon 12/26/19 re: Paul Tillich quote Should there be doubt in commitment, a wavering resolve, then that faith is weak. One may doubt themselves in personal perplexity but never the Creator or His calling. Reply Ronw13, Oregon 12/26/19 re: Miguel de Unamuno quote Perplexity, wavering resolve got the best of Unamuno, giving way for social liberalism, centrist-left polices in the West defeating the purpose of individual liberty and the right to prosper without oppression/plunder. A healthy community should never doubt the foundation of individual liberty. There is no place for doubt in a believing heart. 1 Reply Ronw13, Oregon Ronw13, Oregon (12/25/19) Not to exclude, these key liberties are inclusive of the "freewoman" by note, concerning such liberties. 1 Reply Ronw13, Oregon 12/25/19 re: William Lisle Bowles quote History surely repeats itself, there have been many kings, some good some bad. Lessons for individuals and nations, perhaps none so clear as David's afflictions and trials to enlighten man's understanding of freedom from oppression and death, in this life and also in that which is to come. In David's distress he called upon the Lord and cried unto God, the battle was hot, "then the earth shook and trembled; the foundations also of the hills moved and were shaken, because he was wroth. He bowed the heavens also and came down: and darkness was under his feet. He made darkness his secret place; his pavilion round about him were dark waters and thick clouds of the sky." Ps ch 18, then God's face was revealed to David. As also Isaiah ch, 45:15 declares " Verily thou art a God that hidest thyself, O God of Israel, the Saviour." king Cyrus knew him not, but came to know that the hand of the Lord was upon him, With this nation the USA, there is an "open vision" the face revealed to guide our nation, though denied by corruptions deception.

Freedom ( legitimate or licentious). Liberty, noun, The combination of the noun with the verb stresses the completeness of the act. Free from bondage. The phraseology is that of manumission from slavery, which among the Greeks was effected by a legal fiction, according to which the manumitted slave was purchased by a god; as the slave could not provide the money, the master paid it into the temple treasury in the presence of the slave, a document being drawn up containing the words "for freedom." physical liberty. This word taken from the word, Eleutheros liberty, unrestrained ( to go at pleasure) as a citizen not a slave, whether freeborn or manumitted, exempt from obligation or liability. Hence Apeleutheros liberty, being owned by god, access to the presence of God. Spiritual liberty. These words echo the same sentiment from the Hebrew, ancient Chophshiy liberty, freedom from bondage and tax, at your pleasure, without care. Hence the 3 key liberties, economic, physical, spiritual. coupled with 13 attributes allow for defense of these liberties of those that would "spoil" [plunder] the individual, unjustly so. Reply Ronw13, Oregon jim k, Austin (12/24/19) According to your posture are you corrected. In this life liberty is paramount, one hopes for it in the next. Hence, saved by hope. I cherish my liberty, not to trust it to fools. Merry Christmas bro. Reply Ronw13, Oregon 12/24/19 re: J. C. Watts, Jr. quote Jim k, Austin, good question, it does seem some prayers do count. but rather a personal situation, that is within your own heart. When looking at a bigger picture, there are those that have personal relationships that guide nations ,other than economics, and personal gain. Funny how that works. yes some prayers count more than others. fluid. 1 Reply Ronw13, Oregon 12/24/19 re: Thomas Jefferson quote " The heavens declare the glory of God; and the firmament showeth his handy work."

Watts, Jr. quote Our nation was granted a " token for good" and the power of sovereignty projected upon it and the children of this nation by our Creator. I've seen a few sinking ships in my time, but not once have I seen an atheist on board. Our Creator's power of sovereignty/ His righteousness put to our account, " The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth much " James 5:16 kjb Reply Ronw13, Oregon 12/23/19 re: Justice Anthony Kennedy quote Consensus can be brought to a fine point. Elohiym, "God" is plural, used in many aspects, to address, magistrates, leaders, angles= sons of God. Or the trinity of God, himself.Eloahh "God" singular, this Hebrew name corresponds to the Aramaic Elahh, the origin of the term in unknown, it avoids the historical associations. The question arises Why did Jefferson use the term Creator, create "bara" it is a scientifically precise language to demonstrate that God brought the object or concept into being from previously from nonexistant material. Since Yahweh is the creator, He is able to deliver His people from captivity. Though a precisely correct technical term to suggest cosmic material creation from nothing, "bara" is a rich theological vehicle for communicating the sovereign power of God, who originates and regulates all thing to His glory.

Towb often characterizes a statement as an important assertion for salvation and prosperity.(real or imagined). promises life in the face of oppression or uncertainty.

"Absolutes are codifications within all of creation to assure communication to every generation." "Truth seeks reality as science seeks after God". rvp. "Defining times demand defining words well" a little education makes the conversation more revealing concerning absolute truth. Numbers are words and words are numbered well.
