Gracious in defeat.

Post #1

Post by Elijah John »

To give credit where credit is due, Hillary Clinton gave one of the most gracious concession speeches I have ever heard.

And President Obama was classy in his meeting with President-elect Donald Trump.

By contrast, many of the their most vocal supporters took to streets and blocked traffic, burned and destroyed things, shouted obscenities, called for violence, etc.

Not to mention some irresponsible journalists calling Trump's victory a "triumph of racism" and Hollywood elite threatening to move out of the country.

For debate...does this disorderly protest honor or dishonor President Obama and Secretary Clinton?

And to what degree do these disorderly protesters take their cues from Obama and Clinton?

Have President Obama and Secretary Clinton been emphatic and vocal enough in denouncing these disorderly protests?
My theological positions:

-God created us in His image, not the other way around.
-The Bible is redeemed by it's good parts.
-Pure monotheism, simple repentance.
-YHVH is LORD
-The real Jesus is not God, the real YHVH is not a monster.
-Eternal life is a gift from the Living God.
-Keep the Commandments, keep your salvation.
-I have accepted YHVH as my Heavenly Father, LORD and Savior.

I am inspired by Jesus to worship none but YHVH, and to serve only Him.

They should be out there calming people who should know better.

They seem to be well organised. You'd think someone(s) is behind it.
