Jonathan Turley @JonathanTurley - The unanimous decision in Urias-Orellana v. Bondi is a win for the Trump Administration in maintaining a high burden to overturn immigration courts in asylum cases. Congress still needs to further streamline the removal process. However, today's decision will help in that effort.

Josh Barzon @JoshuaBarzon - Hey @grok, remove every religion here that bases salvation on human righteousness, works, or merit. Leave the one that bases salvation entirely on God’s grace. Create an image of this showing the result.

Josh Barzon @JoshuaBarzon - I was watching Monsters Inc. with my kids the other night. It’s one of my all time favorite Pixar films.
But this time , I noticed a theme in the movie that was fascinating in connection with religion and Christianity specifically…
In the movie, the City of Monstropolis is literally running on fear. Screams power the city. And when supply runs short, the establishment’s answer is simple…
Scare harder.
And never question the system.
Mr. Waternoose and Randall threaten to silence anyone who threatens their system. But then Sully discovers something by accident. Boo’s laughter generates more energy than fear ever could. The very thing the system was suppressing (the joy of a child) was the most powerful force in the room.
This is a near-perfect picture of the difference between Christianity and every other religion on earth.
Every other religious system is fear-based.
Do enough.
Perform enough.
Earn your way past judgment.
The energy it produces is real, but it is exhausting and hollow.
Christianity runs on something entirely different. The Apostle John writes that “perfect love casts out fear, and that we have no fear of judgment because of what Christ has already done.” (1 John 4:18) It is the love of God that compels us to obey and serve Him, not the threat of wrath.
And just like Mr. Waternoose in Monsters Inc, there are those even within the church who would rather keep you afraid than let you discover how much more powerful grace and the love of God actually is.
The movie has a happy ending when the old system is destroyed and Sully leads the city into a new era of using love and joy as a new system to run the city on.
And so too has Christ done away with the fear of the law and judgment and given us hope in His righteousness that lets us come boldly to the Father as His forgiven children.
