Its OK for politicians to lie to us, coz....
....its in their job description ? !!

So, if we lie to the government, it's a felony. But if they lie to us its politics.

Nice one Bill ! Wink

Luke 16:8
And the lord commended the unjust steward, because he had done wisely: for the children of this world are in their generation wiser than the children of light.
9 And I say unto you, Make to yourselves friends of the mammon of unrighteousness; that, when ye fail, they may receive you into everlasting habitations.
10 He that is faithful in that which is least is faithful also in much: and he that is unjust in the least is unjust also in much.
11 If therefore ye have not been faithful in the unrighteous mammon, who will commit to your trust the true riches?

Revelation 21:7
He that overcometh shall inherit all things; and I will be his God, and he shall be my son.
8 But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death.

Politicians, imo, are [mostly] 'faithless' people.

They and we, are infidels.

And we have [mostly] chosen to wallow in our infidelity.

Faithlessness and infidelity, is what living in this world, has 'imparted' into many of us.

Dictionary;
faithless = =
1 disloyal, especially to a spouse or lover.
2 without religious faith.

Never old.

Q.
Why is our choosing to love God 1st, 2nd, and 3rd, so important to God ?

Matthew 22:36
Master, which is the great commandment in the law?
37 Jesus said unto him, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind.
38 This is the first and great commandment.
39 And the second is like unto it, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.
40 On these two commandments hang all the law and the prophets.

Love God, love God's righteousness.....

there are 2 reasons for this lying.

1 politicians are stuck in a talk fest. when people are just talking and not involved in a physical activity, they get stuck in their heads and they lose direction.
a good jog, cycle and swim before parliament may fix this.
also most of them seem to have put on weight and eat rubbish. you cant think straight when you are carb bloated.

2 the second reason they lie is to do with us.
the truth that a politician should tell us is this.

"dear people of australia, stop being entitled little shiits, stop always trying to take, stop being needy and weak and pathetic. invent some shiit, become strong powerful resourceful , independant and go into contribution."

but fat steve cant let that land.
fat steve sitting on the couch with his fat wife has no exeperience of the joy of contribution. he is a creepy little taker and he wants the politicians to "pleasure him".
this will lead fat steve to have a miserable life and it will send the country into a tailspin towards mediocrity.

thats natures way of punishing little punk ass bitches like fat steve (most men). the system literally has them asleep at the wheel of their own lives Wink

So what restrictions would you put on suffrage. E.g. I'd be arguing to stop aquascoot from voting.

In a time of universal deceit — telling the truth is a revolutionary act.

No evidence whatsoever it can be attributed to George Orwell or Eric Arthur Blair (in fact the same guy)

Unfortunately, politicians like lawyers.....are professional liars.

Why Jesus Christ himself had 1 word for them....WOE!

Yadda my dear friend :

1. Very VERY few here care about God/the Bible.

2. Your posts seriously need to be shorter. Try summarizing them or splitting them in half.

3. Speaking of summarizing...do you think God's 10 Commandments in the Old Testament and the message of Jesus Christ in the New Testament can be summarized by this?

Be kind, show love and respect to God, yourself and everyone/everything around you.

Reply #9 - Jun 21^st, 2017 at 6:18pm So what restrictions would you put on suffrage. Maybe everyone starts with one vote, then as you get older and pay more tax you get two votes. Or 1.1 votes. Numbering every box and non compulsory voting would do a fair bit of the correction required.

Well, with Blue Brunettes (spin doctors) and Grey Raven Haired (car salesmen) running Politics for so long - they can't help but lie.

In comes 'Ranga' Trump and his as tactlessly honest up front in a way that ruffles everyone's feathers.

Of course, Blonde Aryan Angel man will come soon and show the world what 'Political Truth' is all about.
