If one is to take Jesus at his word as to what it is to live in the Way, it is authentic love and not this heresy of hate of which is MAGA.
MAGA Christians are getting some really bad second-hand news from me and minsters like Reverend Budde that blows up the story they've spent a long time telling themselves and depend on to justify the harm they do to so many people.

MAGA Christianity is Anti-Jesus. Just ask Jesus.

Absent of humility, by which grace is given and received, Christ is silenced within one's faith.... and faith itself is dead.

If any wizard out there can find me the CORRECT replacement for our Dyson vacuum, please let me know. Kind of maddening, I will admit, as Google isn't helping and thus far I have only found this one overseas when it's maybe a year old.

Non-compliance with what the Founders most feared, mob rule... that thread of populism that is a recurrent disease of the body public, overseas and here. It won't be easy, no more than this early 1930s photo taken in Germany.
