@Alby having issues this AM? Is it you or is it me?

Missionary brought in a local favorite snack -- grasshoppers. Almost did it, but then I heard Klaus saying 'eat ze bugs' and I had to refuse on principle

We love people best by loving God most. Speak the truth, in grace and love.

I "strenuously object" to this way of thinking. What kind of watcher-on-the-wall turns his back to what's outside the wall? How do we know when there's a "storm" brewing? The church is in need of many "wise men who [know] the times" (1 Chronicles 12:32; Esther 1:13) and one cannot be that without looking to the horizon, reading the weather. What exactly do we think the 'men who sit at the gates' were doing? Questioning newcomers, hearing complaints, deciding disputes, and keeping an eye on the outside world. Discernment is an absolute requirement. "Get knowledge, get wisdom, and in all your getting, get understanding." View quoted note →

https://chachi.chat is dead? Too bad, that was useful/helpful.

Views such as "Kinism, Race Realism, and Christian Nationalism" ..."were the most cross-cutting issue of the 2026 assembly season [ARP, URCNA, OPC], appearing prominently in all three gatherings. All three bodies either adopted or reaffirmed a shared NAPARC statement condemning any theological or political teaching that asserts the superiority of one race or ethnicity based on immutable characteristics, and all three called for the repentance of those who promote such views." Good.

...archive.org is unreachable? 👀 wanted to post a link to Churchill's 1920 article, "Zionism versus Bolshevism" View quoted note →

Lindsay's going to get Kirk'd if he ever changes course. "Is Bolshevism really Jewish?" (not linking it) Lord, have mercy. Cannot believe how far he's gone. "Always meet your heroes," I guess.

When someone responds to a personal email with an unashamedly Ai-generated response, this is all I see: 1. I'm not reading that. 2. I want to talk to *you*, my friend, not your "agent." 3. Resistance is not "futile," it is REQUIRED. "THERE ARE FOUR LIGHTS!"

Yes, Dispensationalism is a plague--but did you know there's a cure? This ancient remedy is very effective. It's called 'covenant theology,' and it comes to us straight from the Apostle Paul:

Hey @Dikaios1517 how was GA? Haven't gotten the full low-down yet from our guy, but overhead a couple exciting things...

I honestly can't believe this is even a question. Users can not follow, users can block/mute, relay operators can curate, and parents can monitor also. Seems like some people are forgetting what this is and why we're here. Not sure it's fruitful to suffer an identity crisis at this point. View quoted note →
