The Bible states,"all have sinned and fallen short of the glory of God".It DOESN"T state, if one side sins, they fall short,but if the other side does the same thing, then it's ok.God is no respecter of persons.But in the world, it's different.They seem to have partiality of one side doing something over the other.{"Double standard'}Examples?Oh. if men say things about women,even when they don't mean something by it, they're giving bad "labels".BUT, I notice a lot of women who have contempt for, and maybe even hatred for, men, who consistently downgrade"all" men because maybe they had bad experiences with 3 men.Also, these, comedy shows that women always make "cracks" about men, putting them down,{as in "all" men},but if it was the other way around , there would be protests.{In other words, {according to the worlds way of thinking, if it's the side that they've "chosen" at the moment, it's ok, it's only "wrong" when the "other side" does it.} Like ,I've heard black people who ,a white person may have black friends, and have helped black people out,they're obviously NOT racist, but one day they have a very minor disagreement with a black guy{over a non racial issue} they're called "racist", even though it doesn't fit that particular case.,{But I've seen the other way, if they speak ill of "all" white people, that's fine.}And finally, politics.If a Trump supporter {or other conservative} says something, it's blown all out of proportion,and condemned. But when a "liberal" comedian disrespects "the other side" then it's ok.So my point is, according to Biblical standards, when the Bible states something is a sin, and God is no respecter of persons,isn't it sin on EITHER end?Man sees it as,"when your side does it, it's wrong, but when my side does it, that's fine."But if the Bible states something is sin, wouldn't it be sin for BOTH sides?Combating one extreme by going to the other, doesn't make it "right".All it is is engaging in tit for tat.There is no partiality with God.Either something is right by God, or something is wrong.No partiality.

Sinners in the hand of an angry God. All sinners need our prayer. We all had done wrong to someone. Jesus paid it all and we must draw closer to Him and thank Him for what He has done on the cross. Fast and pray daily for all your friends, loved ones, and those you care. Jesus will hear your prayer and will save all of them.

If someone came here for the first time and only read my post would they be led to Jesus is what I ask myself. How is what I post going to lead someone in knowledge of how to pray for someone else is a good question for ourselves, isn't it? Is this a prayer that others will join in with joyfully unto Jesus can't be a bad question to ask of ourselves, can it? Yes we all who have read the Bible know that God is no respecter of persons but is there not more than one meaning in that? Doesn't it also mean that there is things written that we will suffer for if we ignore Jesus' Instructions? Are there not listings of curses and blessings that are hunting for us in accordance with our actions? Does our lack of knowledge and lack of our willingness to pursue Jesus' knowledge keep us from curses or blessings hunting for us? Are we exempt from curses hunting from us if we are saved yet not willing to pay close attention to Honoring what Jesus instructs us to do? Am I only suffering for my lack of knowledge along with a lack of obedience to that knowledge? I'm not a republican or a democrat, I am a full fledged Bible Believing Christian and I have and do things unto Jesus! Everyone knowing or not knowing is only doing and acting unto Jesus and they Will stand before Him as His Saved or His unsaved but did they already suffer for doing things His Way as well as not doing things His Way? I know I suffer when I don't do things Jesus' Way and I know everyone listed in the Bible suffered for not doing things Jesus' Way so we can pray Lord Jesus give me Your desire to do Your Instructions, no matter what they are so that I am Overwhelmed by Your Blessings, Hunted by Your Blessings and Overtaken by Your Blessings in Jesus! Amen! Thank You Lord Jesus!

I don't completely get you going on and on ,but I sense you're being critical of me.But I stand by my points. Either what I said is true or not, and like I said, what applies to one, applies to both.I stand by that .God doesn't have "special rules" for one set of people, but not another.If it makes you feel better to be critical of me, oh well. But I still think there's truth to what I said.

Was anything I said judgemental? What is hunting for you Steven besides the gift of eternal life, blessings or curses? I guess I didn't understand what you wanted to learn. I laid what you stated next to the Word of God and that was what the Lord put on my heart to post. I didn't say anything negative about you and I most certainly was not being critical of you. You might want to re-read it.
If someone read what I posted after they read what you posted wouldn't they be led to Jesus being lifted up? Wouldn't they understand what God means by not a respecter of persons?

Every day turn your worries, concerns, and fears over to God. God is going to be up all day and night anyway.
Let’s Pray: God I ask You in Jesus’ name bless me with a praying spirit. Teach me how to pray for the USA. Teach me how to daily turn my worries, concerns, and fears over to You, and leave them with You. Do the same for the writer of this prayer, and every Christian that is a Democrat, Independent, and or a Republican. And bless each of us to walk in love, operate in Faith in God, and Works (because love and faith without works is dead). Thank You Jesus. Amen!
As Christians, we have no right to justify wrong! When you get a change please re-read the Ten Commandants: https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Exodus+20&version=KJV

Yeah, justify wrong on EITHER end. That's the point. No favoritism.
