        Man did you get those from the Talmud? Did you know Christians actually follow the New Testament and Jesus not the Talmud?

    I’ve seen the value of Christian values, and that’s hardly reassuring, Mark

      What values have you seen? Jesus promoted forgiveness love and kindness for all beings. To he a servant to all. To care for the needy. Are those the ones you speak of?

        You mean like holy wars and what’s been occurring in palestein?

        “Matthew 10:34-36 “Do not think that I have come to bring peace to the earth. I have not come to bring peace, but a sword. For I have come to set a man against his father, and a daughter against her mother, and a daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law. And a person’s enemies will be those of his own household.””

        “John 14:26 ”Whoever loves his life loses it, and whoever hates his life in this world will keep it for eternal life.””

        And there are so many more.

        I’ve always had a problem with peopel that claim this shit is good, there’s a lot of bad shit in the bible too. It aint all peaches and cream. It’s not really right to pick and choose either. Sure, you can learn some good things I suppose, but there’s a lot of bad along with the good.

          I am not sure if you are aware but Israel is actually run by Zionist Jews not Christians. So I am not sure why you bring in Palestine.

          In fact Palestine was founded on the explusion of the Jews from Jerusalem in 135AD after Bark Kokhba which itself was the fulfillment of Revelation. And started thousand years of Christianity in Palestine.

          In terms of your quotes the division is between those willing to forgive love and be kind to all beings in following Christ. And those who would rather follow worldly resentments like downvoting people for promotion of love and kindness etc.

          John 14:26 is what they have been accusing Muslims of for decades. That the west loves life while Muslims love death.

            John 14:26 is about the holy Spirit teaching one all things. Everyone has access to the holy spirit through prayer and listening to the still small voice within.

            Doesn’t have anything to do with Muslims as far as I know.

          Well there are plenty of people who do follow Jesus Christs teachings. However there are also some people who identify a the name Christian without knowing what Jesus taught. And some even maliciously claim to be Christian while directly going against his teachings. Jesus said that it is by their fruits that we will know them. And not those who call him Lord, but those doing the will of God, following his commandments to forgive, love and be kind to one another.

      They are most certainly Canadian and it is thanks to our Christian values that recognize that all deserve forgiveness love and kindness that makes it possible.

      This is something absent from pretty much all other faiths I know of.

    Christian values, like when he was complicit in culling over 130,000 of the disabled poor in Britain, during the 2010s?

    They’d not have managed to do that without him.

    Not falling for his public image management white washing.

      Christian values are why we have soup kitchens, cause Jesus said to feed the hungry, it is about th values of love and kindness for all creation. Because even the least is considered divine.

        As a disciple of Christ I am only to tell the truth, I avoid all forms or joke and sarcasm, and aim to edify people. I appreciate your love and concern for the group. May you be full of gratitude at authentic expression, peace and goodness.

    Mark Carney was at a national prayer breakfast, aka an event for praying in public, and quoted from Mark.
    Now, I will do the same:

    Mark 6:5-6:
    “And when you pray, do not be like the hypocrites, for they love to pray standing in the synagogues and on the street corners to be seen by others. Truly I tell you, they have received their reward in full. But when you pray, go into your room, close the door and pray to your Father, who is unseen. Then your Father, who sees what is done in secret, will reward you."

      Mark Carney has a daily devotional each morning which is done in private. His public prayers are in alignment with Jesus’s teachings:

      Jesus also said: “Go into all the world and proclaim the gospel to the whole creation.” — Mark 16:15 “You are the light of the world. A city set on a hill cannot be hidden.” — Matthew 5:14 “Let your light shine before others, so that they may see your good works and give glory to your Father who is in heaven.” — Matthew 5:16 “What I tell you in the dark, say in the light, and what you hear whispered, proclaim on the housetops.” — Matthew 10:27 “Everyone who acknowledges me before others, I also will acknowledge before my Father who is in heaven.” — Matthew 10:32

      Still as a Canadian and as PM he should realize it’s inappropriate for him to engage in public prayer.

      Hopefully he steps down for this.

        Why would he step down for this if he didn’t step down for any of the terrible shit he’s done? Besides, who’s gunna oversee the government firing the next 12,000 federal employees?

        Mark Carney: A conservative in red, voted for by fools who were too scared of a conservative in blue to use even 1% of their brains.

      Canada does not have separation of Church and State like the US. Our parliament building is covered in Bible quotes. Our politicians are called public servants because Jesus said who wishes to be first must be servant of all. Our charter of rights starts with “By the supremacy of God”. Basically Canada is inextricably intertwined with Christianity.

      Yes, we should keep religion out of politics, but I don’t think we should ignore morality.
