However, as C.S. Lewis says, (this be a paraphrase) &quot; God insists we fight against wrong. He commands it.&quot; While our final citizenship is in heaven, we do live here too. And though governments rarely save souls, they can prevent some suffering and cruelty. Politics is important. THANK YOU for stating that whining never helps. True that. So true. Criticism without offering a solution is destructive.

Like you I am a worrier and I am incredibly organised and like to know what&#39;s going on, so sitting back and just trusting is hard, but I need to do it. Like you said God sees the past, present and future so I guess that&#39;s a bit of weight off my back. Jeremiah 29 vs 11. The verse you based this post around.<br /><br />God Bless<br /><br />p.s. real sad I won&#39;t get to see you this summer :( BUT it&#39;s all in the plan ;)Juleshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15592157730586313089noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6172822465523834511.post-61744485638543960922009-07-14T04:28:24.215-07:002009-07-14T04:28:24.215-07:00Way to post, Nate!Ruthieyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09245096905358866454noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6172822465523834511.post-32850040950210862492009-06-17T12:40:33.274-07:002009-06-17T12:40:33.274-07:00Hey Nate, are you using a &quot;jailbroken&quot; UI app to change the GUI on the iPod Touch?

I think that I agree with it fully. Without the spiritual realm, why would there be a need for spirits? <br /><br />I also agree with your interpretation of hell. I've heard the phrase "eternal punishment" so many times, whether reading the bible, (Mathew 25:46, Jude 1:7), or hearing it in sunday school. This punishment is God's choice to remove us from his presence. This is what I believe Hell to be: exile from God. <br />Therefore, he is omnipresent, but chooses to leave us.Paulhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03742676869506636727noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6172822465523834511.post-5333357753156757262009-06-02T07:54:45.070-07:002009-06-02T07:54:45.070-07:00Yes please keep posting your thoughts!
