IT TAKES ALL TYPES OF "PEOPLE"

Certain TYPES of PEOPLE (humans?) are a minority on this earth.. Why the h__ are they being portrayed as THE majority.  I do not get it, THEY are so pitiful and harmless that they are given voice in LIBRARIES. GOD knows they need assistance in having a voice, they are so persecuted.  The real persecution has begun and needs to be addressed.

In fact "woke" is used with the negative connotation to address the DEI, The 1619 Project, or other specifically more broad ideas about the way culture is affected by racism, discrimination, and "colonization."  I cannot speak here, though, because anything I say is raci

Book by G McDermott

  In A New History of Redemption Dr Gerald McDermott one finds an excellent book on Jonathan Edwards and a beautiful exposition of and walk through the steps and stages of theological considerations concerning the hope of the Messiah Jesus of Nazareth. McDermott explores the work that Jesus did in redeeming the world of its ails through the life of the church and throughout history.   In the volune gets a refame of the significance of Edwards thought on redemption, while exploring so many topics and texts. McDermott demonstrates his vast and excellent knowledge of the theology of Edwards.   I enjoyed the section concerning the Babylonian empiric domination of God’s chosen people. McDermott clearly explains the history of redemption for the Christian and the Hebrew children.
