Welcome to General Chat - GAW Community Area

This General Chat area started off as a place for people to talk about things that are off topic, however it has quickly evolved into a community and has become an integral part of the GAW experience for many of us.

Based on its evolving needs and plenty of user feedback, we are trying to bring some order and institute some rules. Please make sure you read these rules and participate in the spirit of this community.

Rules for General Chat

• Be respectful to each other. This is of utmost importance, and comments may be removed if deemed not respectful.

• Avoid long drawn out arguments. This should be a place to relax, not to waste your time needlessly.

• Personal anecdotes, puzzles, cute pics/clips - everything welcome

• Please do not spam at the top level. If you have a lot to post each day, try and post them all together in one top level comment

• Try keep things light. If you are bringing in deep stuff, try not to go overboard.

• Things that are clearly on-topic for this board should be posted as a separate post and not here (except if you are new and still getting the feel of this place)

• If you find people violating these rules, deport them rather than start a argument here.

• Feel free to give feedback as these rules are expected to keep evolving

In short, imagine this thread to be a local community hall where we all gather and chat daily. Please be respectful to others in the same way

Rules For the rest of the Site also accessible on the sidebar.

Yesterdays General Chat

The UN sold us out. They have weaponized migration and the world allowed them to do it.

The entire world seems to have 'voted' to this global compact for migration, knowing that they'd all flow to the United States. They must have known, or believed, that this would destroy the United States.

I believe that this is a very solid justification for Trump to rescind this, block this, and tell them to break the compact and if they don't, then NO OTHER COUNTRY will EVER receive any more funding again. USAID is dissolved. The state department is dissolved. The CIA is dissolved. And everyone terminated there and blacklisted from US employment until further notice.

Alternatively, if they want to keep getting USAID, then all the countries that want to receive money from the United States MUST vote YEA to a "Compact" for dissolving the United Nations.

Thru the Bible - Questions & Answers with Dr. J. Vernon McGee

1. Can we know that we are saved now or do we have to wait until the resurrection?

2. When does the Rapture occur? Is it before, during, or at the end of the Great Tribulation?

3. What should be the Christian's response to the evidence of carbon dating that man existed long before Adam and Eve?

4. How do we accept the salvation that comes from Christ?

5. Why does Romans 4:19 say that Abraham’s body was dead when he fathered six children after Isaac?

6. Why do say that speaking in tongues is not for today?

Thru the Bible - Minute with McGee Dr. J. Vernon McGee

It Only Gets Better

The first word after the crucifixion in Isaiah 53 is “sing,” and it’s a call to Israel to sing. But they’re not singing over there today. In the past, Israel has been a barren wife. But her future is more glorious as there are going to be many children in the future. The Word of God makes it clear that the great days are right down yonder ahead of us. It gets “gooder and gooder” all the way along, if you’re a child of God. Today’s better than yesterday. And you want to know something? Tomorrow’s going to be better than today. Can’t have it any more wonderful than this, friends.

Daily Promises

For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God hath before ordained that we should walk in them. (Ephesians 2:10)

Well before the blood shed by His Son, God knew His children and their ways. By the sacrifice of Jesus Christ, His children were recreated and renewed in the promises of the Father. As new creations, we are commanded to live in such a way as to bring glory and honour to the Almighty God. May we live in such a way that is worthy of the tremendous sacrifice of Christ as the power of God works through us.

The Song In Your Heart

Speaking to yourselves in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing and making melody in your heart to the Lord. — Ephesians 5:19
