  • Nashville saw its first case of the “Spanish flu” in late September 1918. By November, 1,300 had died — 1 percent of the city’s population.

    The influenza would kill almost 700,000 in the United States and 50 million globally. It was the worst pandemic in modern history. Amid the dramatic lifestyle changes brought by the worldwide coronavirus outbreak, the experience of Christians more than a century ago is worth revisiting.

    As the flu spread across the U.S. in the late fall and early winter of 1918, theaters, schools, businesses and churches closed their doors for weeks. The Tennessee Health Department advised churches to suspend their Sunday meetings for Oct. 20 and 27. No one protested, and 92 churches complied.

    However, the Russell Street Church of Christ in Nashville did not close its doors. The church approached the Red Cross with an offer of help. Their building became a temporary hospital because the city hospitals were turning away people. The Russell Street members, along with the Eleventh Street and Chapel Avenue congregations, poured their monetary and human resources into feeding and nursing the poor. The influenza epidemic, as A. B. Lipscomb wrote in the Gospel Advocate, had “opened up a way for the enlargement of the sympathies of Christian people.”

  • 7:00 Example of how the U.S destabilizes and tortures BLKPOC….makes you wonder about the med experiments, rip-offs, short-changing being done to Us. We already know they quietly have meetings to pass laws to continue burying ‘Forever Chemicals’ in BLKPOC areas to increase your chances of cancer, brain-damage, death. All these young brown boys, euro indoctrinated, letting these white girls lure them into ‘organ sacrifices’:

  • The “RAM” of SA said to deny Putin would be ‘An act of WAR”…Stay the course. Walk away from ICC.

    “ The UK is a founding member of the ICC. In 2020, The ICC said, "It will not take action against the UK, despite finding evidence British troops committed war crimes in Iraq" But South Africa is expected to follow the ICC regulations.”

    “ South Africa should remember that Russia saved them during the struggle against .Aparthied. South Africa is acting unAfrican by bending to Western pressure for not being able to protect the Russian president in Africa. Shameful. How is South Africa hoping to lead the African continent to prosperity with such shameful and cowardly acts? Africans are grateful. Return the favor South Africa, do not bend to pressure. Be vigilant. The struggle continues!”

    I think he should go. But you would have to clear some runways for soviet jets and so on because America just doesn't have reasonable leadership right now and will be subject to following military instructions. Maybe both Russia and China will send jet escorts.”
    “ The west is so toxic that you can't imagine. They go to Zambia, land on the Zambian beautiful airport constructed by the Chinese, drive on beautiful roads constructed by the Chinese and hold meetings with Zambian government in beautiful conference hall constructed and donated to Zambia for free. In the same hall, the west will tell Zambia to chase the Chinese away from their country. It's so hard to understand how this can be.”
