10So do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you; I will uphold you with my righteous right hand. Isaiah 41:10
That's a fairly wonderful promise, don't you think. God help you in your needs and bless you with a joyful, abundant heart.
For Christians, sure. False converts love to claim our verses (2 Ti 3:13).
I leave that winnowing to God.

So you're all hat and no horse then...well, the scripture is excellent, even if you don't take it to heart.
Odd that you don't realize what that link actually says about, well, you.
:e4e:
:yawn: ad hominem Eph 4:14
No, just a truth that makes you uncomfortable, which is usually when you retreat to this, or the "Proof please" shimmy.
For more than a year, Black Lives Matter protesters have demanded change within the American justice system. It would seem as though the Justice Department has heard their plea and announced a new mandate forcing 33,000 federal agents, as well as prosecutors, to undergo training to stop their personal biases from influencing law enforcement decision.

The Dept. of Justice working hand in hand with the cop-hating racists at Black Lives Matter? Who would have thunk?
Obama defends Black Lives Matter protests at police memorial in Dallas
President Obama defended the Black Lives Matter movement Tuesday at a memorial service for five slain Dallas police officers, saying bigotry remains a problem in police departments across the U.S.
While paying tribute to the fallen officers for sacrificing their lives to protect anti-police protesters from a sniper, Mr. Obama also called on law enforcement agencies to root out bias that he said is contributing to violence on the streets of America.

I forgot that one. It's a pretty great dodge. :thumb:Let the reader decide (Eph 4:14).
...
Okay, so in lieu of argument SD makes accusations then retreats to:
Proof please.
Ad hominem.
Let the reader decide.
:cheers:
:yawn: What dodge? I don't believe you've ever actually made an argument (Eph 4:14). :juggle:
When the facts are against you or you're called upon to reason independently, to do more than cut and paste, you dodge, avoid the effort by retreating behind a handful of phrases.
I've made all sorts, many of them to you and all of them met by that retreat, supra. That you believe otherwise is illustrative of a principle I noted some time ago, that people who have not arrived at their part by reason are loath to be moved from it by that faculty.
