The Republican-controlled Tennessee state legislature voted last week to expel a Democratic state representative for an anti-gun-violence demonstration, but on Monday, a Nashville council voted to send him back to represent his constituents (WTVF).
Over the course of four days, Tennessee’s ouster of two Black Democratic state representatives, Justin Jones and Justin Pearson, sparked a national uproar over partisanship, alleged racism, free speech and mass shootings. Jones returned to work in Tennessee on the same day that a 23-year-old with a rifle in Kentucky killed five bank colleagues and injured nine people, yet another tragedy amid the nation’s debate about guns. Pearson, too, may be back in the legislature soon and the punishment the two men received helped to expand the size of the audience for their message.
“What does the Bible say about gun control?”
America at War:
I am but a simple man of God, no flash and dance from me….I belong to no political party, I am smarter than that, I belong to GOD ALMIGHTY! My precious JESUS! PTL! I write for HIM! God has me write and preach basic Christianity. Preachers got to get back to carrying our The Great Commission and build bridges of love and trust and share basic Christianity, and relate to a lost America. Americans fight over everything these days.
I smell hell from here…..
To put yourself above God, and say a baby should be killed is so Satanic. To pass laws to kill babies is pure hell. The problem with America, is that it is no longer a Christian nation. Only 4% of Americans have a Biblical Worldview. As I told a bunch of young people at Narrow Church in Albuquerque on Easter, you are the future, the future of the Church, and of America. I am not the future, I will soon be 67, You are the future. Think about it. You represent God, you are commanded to carry out The Great Commission. Right now, Satan rules over the majority of Americans. God will have the final say on His judgement seat. So many here in America think they are so smart. Never think your opinion can overrule God. Many in America act like fools. What is The Judgement Seat of Christ?
From THE HILL: Leaders in more than 300 pharmaceutical and biotech companies protested a ruling by a conservative federal judge in Texas who last week banned the abortion pill mifepristone while challenging the scientific process in which it was approved decades ago by the Food and Drug Administration.
The Justice Department is appealing. A federal judge in Washington state countered the Texas judge. And it is likely the Supreme Court will eventually hear the case. Drug and biotech executives are in an uproar because politics collided with research and drug approvals, with repercussions beyond whether pregnancies can be terminated in America, by whom, with what method and when (Reuters).
