I believe what Choy is saying is also what I’m saying.
ultimately is another line, its not linked to “authority to…”
I am in the United States Army. The Constitution of the US grants the power to congress to declare war against a foreign nation. I, acting as a representative of the government, carry out that power with my authority to kill members of armies representing said foreign power. I do not have the power to declare war, but I have the authority to carry out the orders of my superiors.
yup, thats it
1 Timothy. This is the first letter to Timothy who was a young church leader. It was written about 64 A.D. probably just prior to Pauls final Roman imprisonment. The first letter to Timothy affirms their relationship.(1:2) Paul begins his advice, warning Timothy about false teachers(1:3-11) and urging him to hold on to his faith in Christ.(1:12-20) Next Paul considers public worship, emphasizing the importance of prayer (2:1-7) and order in church meetings, (2:8-15) This leads to a discussion of the qualifications of church leaders, elders and deacons. Paul lists specific criteria for each office.(3:1-16) Paul speaks again about false teachers, telling him how to recognize them and respond to them. (4:1-16) Next he gives practical advice on pastoral care to the young and old (5:1,2) widows (5:3-16) elders (5:17-25) and slaves. (6:1,2) Paul concludes by exhorting Timothy to guard his motives (6:3-10) to stand firm in his faith (6::11,12) to live above reproach (6:13-16) and to minister faithfully (6:17-21).
First of all I would like to salute you for being in the army and willing to fight for our freedom. I spent 10 years in the U.S. Army as a Sgt. My daughter is a M.P. in the U.S. Army and she is currently stationed as Ft.Leonardwood, where I was stationed 30 years ago.
Awesome. What was your MOS, brother?
Na, I believe I got it.ultimately is another line, its not linked to “authority to…”
do i still have to explain the difference between having power and having authority?
Ok now don’t laugh, I have 2 MOS’s first a wheeled vehical and generator machanic and the second was cook, mess Sgt. Yours if I may ask.
Not unheard of. Actually, a lot of people switch their MOS’s nowadays, for the additional training. Especially the infantry guys lol. I’m a chaplain’s assistant. I’m currently stationed at an armory in SD, but will be leaving to Ft. Benning for RIP.
Hey, I am a 13 bravo, gun bunny. My last enlistment was as a TC, tank commander, Tanker as a secondary MOS. But I got out before I went that route. I was actually getting used to military life again while getting ready to become a military chaplain. Military life doesn’t mix well with my family. So I got out. That makes 4 honorable discharges now. Sgt. was my rank. I got out right before I was about to make e-6 and actually was accepted to OCS, but really didn’t want to go through all that again. Guess we were part of the original green team.
Yeah… the getting moved around every 3 to 4 years puts a damper on it. I am not sure how my wife puts up with it, exactly. What was your skill level at 13B?Hey, I am a 13 bravo, gun bunny.

Cool My daughter’s, the MP her x-husband was tanker overseas in Iraq for 2 years. Her current husband spent 3 years there has been shot and he showed up right at the place where they captured Sadum Hussien. Right after they go him. He saw him coming out of his hole. Me I liked working on auto’s but I spent about 3 years doing that. I really like to cook and still do. As far as working on cars it has gotten too complicated over a 30 year period.Hey, I am a 13 bravo, gun bunny. My last enlistment was as a TC, tank commander, Tanker as a secondary MOS.

Why does someone need a doctor. We are there to preach the word of God. To be a shepherd to the sheep. To bring the lost back to God. To comfort those who need comforting. Every preacher, pastor, priest, minister, have been picked by God to do a certain job, task. If it weren’t for preachers there would be many, many who would be out of union with God. Although we don’t believe in some of the same things that others believe, we all have the same thing in common. We believe in God, we believe it is important to be in union with him, that God is the alpha and omega, that God created us, the heavens and the earth and all that is in it, that Jesus died for our sins and provided a path to heaven, and many other thing that we have in common. Every job that God gives you,me, a priest is important. I believe this is where God put me. I believe he called me to be a minister, just like a priest was called to be a priest.
Someone needs a doctor because fo the most part we DON’T know our own bodies and DON’T know how to heal diseases and repair wounds - not our own nor anybody else’s. This presumes that a doctor has special access to knowledge and skills that the rest of society doesn’t have.
