Palm Sunday 2020. Always a special time of remembrance annually, has there been a time in my life when it has been more meaningful? Given all that is going on in our world today?
No. No, in my lifetime, I do not think there has ever been a time when it has been more meaningful.

They argued that the American political and economic system would make East Asia a slave to the United States. Currently, Korean broadcasting, media, publishing, politics, economy, and blockchain are all dominated by Chinese and Japanese capital.Dear @roleerob, China and Japan insist that American Christian civilization will destroy the nature and value of East Asian civilization.
China, in particular, is enticing South Korea to create a new East Asian civilization beyond American domination.
I wonder how Jesus will govern China and Japan in the future.
Thank you!
As I have mentioned to you before, my friend ...
... many now view America as a "post Christian" nation. It is hard to argue otherwise, from what we see all around us here. How do you view your own country? While there has been considerable Christian influence in Korea in the past, how many of your people today would describe themselves as disciples of Christ?
Sorry to read this @silvergrifin007. Here in America, our broadcasting is dominated by the "progressive, " secular Left. Very sad to see how many of my countrymen are heavily influenced by it ...
Korea is still not a Christian country. In particular, Korea is surrounded by North Korea, China, Japan, and Russia, which are dominated by paganism and atheism. Compared to Korea, America is blessed.Honorable American senior @roleerob, though 60% of the American population is Christian, but only 20% of the Korean population is Christian.
The Italian Catholic priest I met said, "50% of the Korean population should be Christians, so that Korea will be blessed with God." The United States is a Christian country because at least 60% of the population is Christians like you. Although the power of Christianity in the United States is weakened, it is stronger than Korean Christianity. President Trump of the United States is also a Christian in appearance, although his privacy is not godly.
Of course, American broadcasting, the media, and culture are said to have fallen because of commercialism, but in my view, the American national founding ideology and system is based on Christianity. There are particularly good leaders like @roleerob.
Thank you!
Yes, my Korean friend …
… I am well acquainted with statistics like this. They are, in my opinion, false. Depending, of course, on how one defines the word “Christian.” I say it is false, based upon what God’s Word has to say about being “born again” resulting in “newness of life.”
With our nation’s Christian heritage, many of my countrymen may make some claim to being a Christian, but with no outward evidence of that being true. In Korea, I would assume there is no similar issue, since as far as I know, your country does not make any claim to having a Christian heritage. So, you’re 20% is likely much closer to the truth, than your reference to our 60% …
Of this, there can be no question. You are “talking” with about as American a man as you are going to meet, given my own heritage. However, I would suggest to you @silvergrifin007 that America today is following the “well worn” path we see in the Old Testament. God’s blessings lead to peace and prosperity. Sadly, in this broken world, man doesn’t handle these blessings very well, from our Creator’s perspective. America is no exception.
P.S. As I wish to help you, I would encourage you to not vote on my comments. They will not result in any benefit to you, based upon the EIP changes of HF
21/ 22. Based on those changes, it is best to vote only on posts, where you will then reap the benefit of curation rewards coming back to your account. I hope this translates well. I sincerely appreciate the intent behind your votes. I am encouraging you not to waste them. Galations 6:10understand yet. However, I understand the heritage of Christianity you speak of. Just because parents are Christians does not mean that children will become Christians.
The gap between the language and culture barriers that exist between us is still great, but if we continue to talk, the gap will be reduced.
However, the United States is still a state of freedom. Although it may not be the current Christian state, it is the United States that wants freedom and liberation.Respected @roleerob, your theological wisdom and great sentences seem to be difficult for me to @Roleerob lives in the United States, but also Donald Trump. Trump is apparently a Christian, but actually a pagan. I agree with you.
I always worry because I don't know how to use blockchain and cryptocurrency, thank you for your advice.
I interpreted your words as saying that it is better to vote on the post, not to comment.
God bless you
At the moment @silvergrifin007 ...
... America retains its freedom. Walking away from the true source of liberty, however, does not bode well for our future ...
Yes, that is correct. Again, taking pains to not be misunderstood, I do appreciate your thought behind voting on my comments. It is just not in your best interest.
Also, you may be confused on why I would then vote (sometimes ...) on your comments. 😮 It is because I have a greater amount of voting power, resulting in you actually getting something from my upvotes. Lots to understand. I would encourage you to just take my word for it ... 😉
Some day my father told me that he was thinking in give the name of Nabucodonozor. My guess is he was thinking in the exotic of the name much more than in the History of the man. I'm glad he didn't do it, the exotic names are often getting bullied!!
We need that peace that you are talking about, it will not be easy what's to come!!
Many hugs and much prayers for you and yours!!
Oh my goodness @leveuf! Yes ...
... you can be very thankful he did not follow through on that idea! 🙃
Yes, in the midst of the coming "fire," He will supply peace which is beyond the natural mind of man, if we submit and surrender our lives to the source of it ...
Amen
Thanks for stopping by @rynow. Up well before 🌄 (here), as I am not familiar with your account, I checked into it briefly. It was nice to see you have yourself listed as a Christian in your profile. As this post clearly indicates, I am a brother in Christ here in America! 👋
Sad (?) to see you did not get any HIVE in the airdrop. While I do not know your history on these blockchains, I know a little bit about them, since choosing to "jump in" in May 2018. To learn more about my investment ...
So ... In the unlikely event your were unaware, you are on this list now, where you will be given an equivalent airdrop in HIVE. I hope this is a source of encouragement to you.
I hope all is well with you and yours, in this unprecedented (it certainly is here anyway) time. 🙏
Thank you for the nice reply. Our president just announced that our lock-down, which was supposed to end on 16 April, will be extended with 2 weeks.
Luckily we know that God is in control and He knows what is best for us!!
I am still very positive about Hive and is building up my Hive power day by day!!
Yes, absolutely @rynow. God has ordained this, which is unprecedented in the lives of most of us. We'll find out soon enough what is coming ...
It is not clear from your response that you are aware of having been on the "excluded" list when the Hive blockchain was formed. As a result, you did not receive a matching amount of HIVE. That is, whatever amount of STEEM you had in your STEEM wallet on March 20th, 14:00 UTC would have been "mirrored" in your HIVE wallet ...
That is why I provided you a link to the post showing you that will be corrected ...
