This is a book I’d like to order and read. By Grace Alone: Finding Freedom and Purging Legalism from Your Life

Praying for the Government was a very good testimony and teaching.
No nonsense teaching backed with experience of a godly man. A notch above many popular Christian teachers IMO.

Maybe your mindset is rooted in doing good only when there’s something in it for you, but that’s not everyone’s mindset.
Originally posted by @sonshipNever once read anything good from you about the teachings of Christ. But here you are speaking so highly of a man who encourages people to not follow the commandments of Christ.

Originally posted by @fmfFranklin Graham recently came through California. I went to it. Basically praying for our leaders to come to know Christ and have a personal relationship is one thing he talked about. And also for Christians to get into being on school boards.
Praying for the Government to do what, for example?

What do you think Paul meant when he wrote these verses in Galatians:
“This I say then, Walk in the Spirit, and ye shall not fulfil the lust of the flesh.
For the flesh lusteth against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh: and these are contrary the one to the other: so that ye cannot do the things that ye would.
But if ye be led of the Spirit, ye are not under the law.
Now the works of the flesh are manifest, which are these; Adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lasciviousness,
Idolatry, witchcraft, hatred, variance, emulations, wrath, strife, seditions, heresies,
Envyings, murders, drunkenness, revellings, and such like: of the which I tell you before, as I have also told you in time past, that they which do such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God.
But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith,
Meekness, temperance: against such there is no law.
And they that are Christ's have crucified the flesh with the affections and lusts.
If we live in the Spirit, let us also walk in the Spirit.”
(Galatians 5:16-25)
