Trust the Executive Branch?
Liberals tend to trust the government to do right in social spending. Conservatives tend to trust the government on security issues. I’d suggest we do neither.

Traveling through to Romans 8:1
So there is now no condemnation to those who are in Christ Jesus. — Romans 8:1 Oh how we long to get to this verse in studying the Bible. If we’re reading through, we may be tempted to rush it. It’s like working forward through a tragic book to the point at which we know…
