Time-saving Truthworthy Thrilling Truck Thursday

Reading this chapter humbled me and restored my faith in correspondence. People are too quick to find fault in good people because they put them on a pedestal, while they let bad people slide because it's seen as cool to not be afraid to be bad. Well, I'm here to tell you it's not true.

 It takes more badness to not pull the trigger than it takes to pull it.

If I see one more Democrat come out publicly against Joe Biden, I am going to scream. Donald Trump has broken every unwritten rule in the Republican playbook, and they have not spoken out against him. They make excuses for him in every interview.

 In my opinion, if I wanted to be president of a diverse country with a bright future, I would make it a point to tell the people that we are not going to allow any groups known for discrimination or bias to associate themselves with our campaign. 

Furthermore, I would do everything in my party's power to eradicate any racism or corruption found anywhere. Unfortunately, that has not happened.

Key subjects for voting: poverty, homelessness, protecting the middle class, and ensuring that billionaires pay their fair share of taxes. Fixing the border can be achieved today with a signed bill, and immigration policies can be restructured too. 

We don't need a new president and this would not take four years. 

Donald Trump's services are not needed. The one thing he could do to show solidarity and strength is to encourage Republicans to work with Democrats, but that is the one thing he refuses to do. It's foolish for one man to undermine everything from the inside and have followers. 

I thought about this when I read this chapter. I believe that if you cannot love your colleague, how can you love the American people? It makes no sense. You can't serve two masters. If you don't know love, you don't know God.

‭Yoḥanan (John) 10:1-42 
[1] “Truly, truly, I say to you, he who does not enter through the door into the sheepfold, but climbs up by another way, that one is a thief and a robber. [2] “But he who enters through the door is the shepherd of the sheep. [3] “The doorkeeper opens for him, and the sheep hear his voice. And he calls his own sheep by name and leads them out. [4] “And when he has brought out his own sheep, he goes before them. And the sheep follow him, because they know his voice. [5] “And they shall by no means follow a stranger, but shall flee from him, because they do not know the voice of strangers.” [6] יהושע used this figure of speech, but they did not know what He had been saying to them. [7] יהושע therefore said to them again, “Truly, truly, I say to you, I am the door of the sheep. [8] “All who came before Me are thieves and robbers, but the sheep did not hear them. [9] “I am the door. Whoever enters through Me, he shall be saved, and shall go in and shall go out and find pasture. [10] “The thief does not come except to steal, and to slaughter, and to destroy. I have come that they might possess life, and that they might possess it beyond measure. [11] “I am the good shepherd. The good shepherd lays down His life for the sheep. [12] “But the hireling, and not being a shepherd, one who does not own the sheep, sees the wolf coming and leaves the sheep and flees. And the wolf snatches the sheep and scatters them. [13] “Now the hireling flees because he is a hireling and is not concerned about the sheep. [14] “I am the good shepherd. And I know Mine, and Mine know Me, [15] even as the Father knows Me, and I know the Father. And I lay down My life for the sheep. [16] “And other sheep I have which are not of this fold – I have to bring them as well, and they shall hear My voice, and there shall be one flock, one shepherd. [17] “Because of this the Father loves Me, because I lay down My life, in order to receive it again. [18] “No one takes it from Me, but I lay it down of Myself. I have authority to lay it down, and I have authority to receive it again. This command I have received from My Father.” [19] Again there came a division among the Yehuḏim because of these words, [20] and many of them said, “He has a demon and is mad, why do you listen to Him?” [21] Others said, “These are not the words of one possessed by a demon. Is a demon able to open the eyes of the blind?” [22] At that time the Ḥanukkah came to be in Yerushalayim, and it was winter. [23] And יהושע was walking in the Set-apart Place, in the porch of Shelomoh. [24] So the Yehuḏim surrounded Him and said to Him, “How long do You keep us in suspense? If You are the Messiah, say to us plainly.” [25] יהושע answered them, “I have told you, and you do not believe. The works that I do in My Father’s Name, they bear witness concerning Me. [26] “But you do not believe, because you are not of My sheep, as I said to you. [27] “My sheep hear My voice, and I know them, and they follow Me. [28] “And I give them everlasting life, and they shall by no means ever perish, and no one shall snatch them out of My hand. [29] “My Father, who has given them to Me, is greater than all. And no one is able to snatch them out of My Father’s hand. [30] “I and My Father are one.” [31] Again the Yehuḏim picked up stones to stone Him. [32] יהושע answered them, “Many good works I have shown you from My Father. Because of which of these works do you stone Me?” [33] The Yehuḏim answered Him, saying, “We do not stone You for a good work, but for blasphemy, and because You, being a Man, make Yourself Elohim.” [34] יהושע answered them, “Is it not written in your own Torah, ‘I said, “You are elohim”’? [35] “If He called them elohim, to whom the word of Elohim came – and it is impossible for the Scripture to be broken – [36] do you say of Him whom the Father set apart and sent into the world, ‘You are blaspheming,’ because I said, ‘I am the Son of Elohim’? [37] “If I do not do the works of My Father, do not believe Me; ” [38] but if I do, though you do not believe Me, believe the works, so that you know and believe that the Father is in Me, and I in Him.” [39] Therefore they were seeking again to seize Him, but He went forth out of their hand, [40] and went once more to the other side of the Yardĕn to the place where Yoḥanan was immersing at first, and there He stayed. [41] And many came to Him and said, “Yoḥanan indeed did no sign, yet all that Yoḥanan said about this Man was true.” [42] And many believed in Him there.
