I have love, joy and peace in my heart too...but I'm pretty sure it's because of the Trump election defeat. How can you be sure that what you feel in your heart is Christ-related?

May I suggest that you take that seemingly counterfeit "love, joy and peace" in your heart down to the southern border and take a good look at just one horrible example of what the "Trump election defeat" got you.

That's a bummer. Someone once told me, though, that gettin' old ain't for the feint-hearted.

I watched that vid last week and my blood boiled. I did not have nice thoughts about the perps.

Your blood boiled? What happened to the love and peace in your heart? Would Christ's blood boil at such a spectacle?

There is such a thing as righteous anger! Did not Christ's predictions about the destruction of Jerusalem and the temple come to past in his generation, just as he said it would?

Jesus' prediction has nothing to do with your blood boiling. You either can imitate Christ in your behavior, or you can't. And if you can't...then stop counting yourself among the "saved few". They tortured and spat at Jesus, and he forgave them...and your blood is boiling even though you are watching pictures of an event. Stop deceiving yourself. The "love" in your heart is only for those who are of the same mindset as you.

Michigan university can't punish Christian club for requiring leaders be Christian, judge rules
https://www.christianpost.com/news/j...uid=c548ea3e1a
Common sense and constitutional ruling! Clearly the university wanted to discriminate against Christians.

"...the club is open to all students..."
It could therefore be argued that the club discriminates against non-Christians. We also are not told what is in the "statement of faith." Christianity is quite diverse so it is conceivable that the statement of faith has something in it that some Christians would not agree to. Not enough information here to determine whether I agree or disagree with the ruling.
