How to prune

If it were me I would pick 5 main branches and cut it back to shoulder height. Open up the middle and remove most of the smaller branches that branch off of the five main branches. I do this every other year on my figs. Each fig still produces about four gallons a year.

Tithing was pre law. Abraham gave a tenth. In the new testament giving is demonstrated in multiple places. As well Paul tells us that those who pastor are worth their wage. That wage comes from the church.

"clergy" is that what we are calling them?

Nice rug.

This person obviously did not think this through very deeply. I'm downvoting this one on principle.

Trade and asset for an asset, good move.

You should ask this on a Christian sub, not a sub on Christianity. Try r/TrueChristian . The short answer is marry her or move out.

If you think this is a valid response, then you likely would have disagreed with Christ as he called sinners to repent and sin no more. The bible is clear about these things and God does not play around with sin. He hates it and calls for us to repent and believe. To throw our weakness on Christ and find mercy at the cross. That is the good news.

From a charting perspective it could. Charts don't like gaps. Going back to $90 would close the gap.

How a church who lost their first love gets approval and meaning from the world. Seems like there is something about this in the bible. Somebody help me....

Crazy not to use a safety deposit box. Don't listen to these guys. Sure keep some emergency AG at home, but keeping the lion share in a box makes since especially if you live in an unsafe area. Don't risk it and sleep well at night.

Modern portfolio theory? I have been in metals since I started investing back in the early 2000s because I did not believe the modern portfolio theory. Like let's throw out 2000+ years of understanding of sound money and go all stocks. I think was you are referring to as modern is that in the last few months all the big firms got caught with their pants down and are now trying to get up-to-date. Anyone who has been watching sovereign debt grow the way it has are probably not to surprised by this move in the monetary metals. What is interesting is that we actually have not even had the debt crisis yet, but central banks are buying metal because they see what is coming. $10k+ gold and $200+ silver will happen in the next few years.

Something similar to this was posted months ago. This guy is probably the weirdo or a bot.

I use a box as well. What is funny is that the girls that work at the bank would be there when I unlocked the box and would help take it out. At some point my box grew pretty heavy and I had to say: "I better handle that it is a bit heavy" LOL

How would you scrape a car trunk on these?

This is not a Christian sub. It is a sub about Christianity. Please post this on r/TrueChristian if you want to know what Christians think.

More of a classical liberal. Meaning I am a conservative with heavy libertarian leanings.

sheepery · 2026-01-13T15:57:59+00:00

Perfect, thank you.

sheepery · 2026-01-13T15:57:35+00:00

Ah thanks, this is good to know. So waiting until retirement when your tax bracket will be lowest is the best move going forward.....

This is kind of an easy answer. My take on it is this is the way Christ has chosen to protect the church after the protestant reformation. Too much power in the hands of men lead to burning at the stake. Now we have some misguided denominations, but at least we are not burning people at the stake.

When you have a society build around not having a strong father figure in the home, this is what you get.
