“The Word [Law] of God – 701”…Blog. Part: “SeVen”.

“The Word [Law] of God – 701”…Blog. Part: “SeVen”.

Did I just… spell the word ‘seven’ incorrectly? I did that just to get your attention. As I thought about tying this blog, into the others, it is my agenda to help each of us, me too. Most choose ‘not to dedicate’… time… to the daily study of the Word of God, The Bible. There are other… ‘Pending Life Necessities’… that are always clamoring for our attention. May I simply suggest… nothing else is more important…!

(Mark 1:35) And = in the morning, = rising up a great while before day, = He [Jesus] = went out, = and = departed into a solitary place, = and = there prayed.

If Jesus thought… that it was important to meet with His Father, do you think it is important for us also? His day probably started about… ‘4am’ and probably went onto ‘11pm’. His teaching of the Kingdom of God, the healings and all the other ‘facets of life’ pressed on Him, like no other. It was important with Him… to meet with “His Father”… and so it must be with “US!”

(Matthew 6:33) But = seek = First = the kingdom of God = and = His righteousness; = and = all these things = shall be added to you.

Our Days Too… are filled with responsibilities and pressures. We have only some limited control over = but much = we have absolutely no control over. There is life, work, family and too many others to list at all… ‘Biding’ for our time and attention. Sometimes our ‘head’ may hit the pillow only to think… I forgot to do “XXX”… today!

At one time… I worked for a governmental environmental agency. Once a month I had to do a “NOX Calibration!” This was about ‘10-hours’ of extensive calculations and procedures on an ‘analyzer specific’ to that compound. It was labor intensive besides the massive calculations to validate the ‘before and after conditions’. Have you ever done “Slope & Intercept Calculations?” I still got up… an hour early at home… and spent time… in my Bible with Christ.

Christ in His Ministry… and Us in our position… have both the same resource. “The Word of God!” The Bible is available to have us to have… “The Mind of Christ!” But I am not God… you may say in response. Yes that is True… but IF you have been Born Again… you have God’s Holy Spirit… indwelling You! That is the “Power”… to live that Life of Christ… with all the pressures of Life. It is ‘your mind’ that controls You… Your agenda and Your lifestyle. Free will… has given you… That Choice.

(Philippians 2:5) For = let = this mind = be in = You = which = was also = in = Christ Jesus,

How simple does… that sound to you? Well we can only have one person in Control. It is either “Christ”… or… it is ‘US!’ Someone is in control. Could it be your hunger or passion or some other driving force? Do you allow your ‘thoughts’ to control you… or do you control your ‘thoughts?’ Obviously you cannot tell your boss… “Say Charlie, I think I will take the day off… and go to the Beach!” In doing so, you would not have a job… to come back to. …LOL!

The Facts of Right & Wrong… are blurred for us by… “the media”… all the time. Justice is for those that can afford it. Wrongs go unpunished and the innocent are often made to seem Guilty. But it is not so with the… “Word of God”. It is “Completely Clear”… what is ‘right’ & what is ‘wrong!’ …Murder, Adultery, Stealing and Lying… are “Wrong!” But what about those other issues of life… that are in those ‘supposed’… “Grey Areas?”

(Luke 4:4) And = Jesus answered = him [Satan], = saying, = It is written that = "man shall not live by bread alone, = but = by every = Word of God."

There is in… the Word of God a… ‘Spiritual Principle’… that may be applied for every situation of Life… to tell you what is… ‘Right & Wrong!’ I don’t believe that… is a ‘saying’… I have heard from many that have claimed to be believers. “Ignorance is simply being un-informed”. We are all born “Ignorant”… and in as little as two or three years… we are speaking and understanding a New Language! “Ignorance”… can be fixed. “Stupid” [an unwillingness to learn]… will hinder One… their entire life.

So where do I begin… if I am going to keep the Word of God? “The Mind follows the Body”. It is the ‘Gateway’… to life’s actions. You all of a sudden, do not perform… ‘Brain Surgery!’ It takes years of medical training and certification. I have always owned “Factory Manuals” for my vehicles. It shows the engineering specifications and methodologies… that the ‘dealer mechanic’ uses to repair your car. You may do the same… and save yourself… some serious money. So it is in the Spiritual Realm…! Here is the “Key”…!

(2Corinthians 10:3-to-6) Of course, = we are living in the flesh, = but = we do not fight in a fleshly way. [but in a Spiritual one = 2Corinthians 4:4]
(2Cor 10:4) For = the weapons = of our warfare = are not those of the flesh. = Instead, = they have = The Power of God = to demolish fortresses. = We = tear down = fortified Ideologies.
(2Cor 10:5) and = every proud obstacle = that is raised = against = the knowledge of God, = taking = every thought captive = in order to = obey Christ.
(2Cor 10:6) We are ready = to punish every act = of disobedience = when your obedience [1John 1:5-to-10] = is complete.

This is the Key… “Simple Obedience to Christ!” Since mankind does not readily know God and what His requirements are, where can he find them. Simply in the Word of God! In “Matthew 4:4 & Luke 4:4”… Jesus already told us that Man has the option to Live by… Every Word of God! He also told us… “Let this Mind… be in you… which was also in Christ Jesus!” What then did Christ… have in His mind… that we do not… ‘Have In Ours…?’

The Word of God… plain & simple. We all are in a Spiritual Warfare. The evil forces of this world are part of the kingdom of darkness. They have already… “Blinded the Minds” [2Corinthians 4:4]… of those that do not believe Christ Jesus and the Word of God. This war still goes on… with those that have come to Christ for salvation. How then can we replace our thoughts… with those that we ‘Should’ have? A simple ‘study and application’ of God’s Word… to our Hearts, Minds and Lives.

Did you Notice… that in those above verses… “That is raised = Against = the knowledge of God”. That is the Key! The knowledge of God… is the Word of God… the Law of God! It is so very simple! God’s Word… is there so that mankind can know God and what He wants for His People. Could it be that simple? That is what Satan, the enemies of our soul… uses against us.

(Genesis 3:1) … and Satan said… “Has God… ‘Really’… said, you shall not…?”

Did you ever wonder… when reading through the Gospels, about ‘the man’ possessed with demons in the “Decapolis” area? Those can be found in… “Matthew 8, Mark 5 and Luke 8.” Those ‘10-cities’, hence the word ‘Decapolis’… were “Jews raising PIGS” [swine]… forbidden by… “Deuteronomy 14:8”. No wonder why they did not recognize… Christ as their promised… “Messiah!” Those Jews, had been violating, “God’s Mandate” for the Jews, His people, as part of their lifestyle. They were eating them and making a profit from them also!

(Matthew 22:29) Jesus = answered them, = "You are wrong = because = you don't = know = the Scriptures = or = God's power.

Christ Jesus spoke… those words to the very people that made a… ‘Life Study’ of the Word of God! They were “Religious”… but had ‘Shunned’… “The Complete & Final Authority”… of the Word of God! So is it today… Many… believe their… “Church or Denomination or Pastor”… without “First”… Knowing what the Word of God… Says!

“You’re being Critical”… is the remark I have often been told, when making such statements. My response has been… “Sorry NO… just Faithful… to what God said in His Word!” Then you’re being… ‘Legalistic’ was their next response. “Sorry NO… just being Truthful… to what God said in His Word!” Most do not know what legalistic means! If I choose to drive the ‘Posted Speed Limit’… am I being Legalistic? No, I am simply… Obeying what the Posted LAW is!

(Galatians 6:1) Brothers, = if a man = is overtaken in a fault, = you = the spiritual ones = restore such a one = in the spirit of meekness, = considering yourself, = lest you also = be tempted [to do the same as him].

The Word of God… will either… “Harden” your heart towards God… or… bring you to “Repentance!” If I saw you speeding on your way to church… and called you aside… and confronted you… what would you do? Please don’t answer me back. You already know what you would do… as you have done the same in the ‘Past!’ You will not change your driving habits… Till you become… “Obedient To Christ Jesus and His Word”.

How then does my Mind… affect my Body? Simply “You Choose” only… what you want ‘to do’ or absolutely, ‘have to do’. Most of us do... what we do… not by choice! It is simply following the ‘previous pattern’ we have adapted our thinking to… “Be it right or wrong!” There has to be a “Higher Reason & Power”… for us to change our ‘Wrong Habits”. “IF”… you call the Blessed Name of Christ Jesus… “THEN”… you need to be living Like… ‘He’ really is your… “Lord & Savior!”

(Romans 12:1-2-3) I beseech you therefore, = brothers, = by the = mercies of God = to = yield = your bodies = a living sacrifice, = holy, = pleasing to God, = which is your = reasonable = service of worship.
(Rom 12:2) And = do not be conformed = to this world, = but = be transformed = by = the renewing of = your mind, = in order = to prove = by you = what is that = good = and = pleasing = and = perfect = will of God.
(Rom 12:3) For = I say, = through the grace given = to me, = to everyone = who is among you, = not to think of himself = more highly than he ought to think. = But = set your mind = to be right-minded, = even as God = has dealt to every man = the measure of faith.

(Romans 10:17) Then faith = comes of hearing, = and = hearing = by = the Word of God.

How about You…? Are you a ‘living sacrifice’ to God… or… do you keep… crawling off the alter? Have you… “Yielded”… to the Word of God? Or have you just not had [made] the time… to know what God wants for you? Many, speak about the… “Will of God!”… Simply put it is “Nothing More”… than the Word of God! “His Will”… will Always agree… “100%”... with His Word. Nothing More… Nothing Less! “Murder”, “Adultery”, “Stealing” and “Lying”… are Never… “His Will”…!

Well suppose I… do not have that ‘measure of faith’ spoken about there in ‘Romans 12:3’…? I have heard… that Excuse before…! The Faith we get… is from, the Word of God. The more we know the Word of God… the More Faith… WE Have! One cannot be strong in the Word of God… without being ‘Strong in Faith!’ When the bottom drops out… that one will simply turn to the Word of God!

(Habakkuk 3:17) Though = the fig tree shall not blossom, = and = fruit is not on the vines; = the labor of the olive fails, = and = the fields yield no food. = The flock is cut off from the fold, = and = no herd is in = the stalls;
(Hab 3:18) Yet = I will rejoice = in Jehovah God, = I will joy in = the God = of my salvation.
(Hab 3:19) Jehovah the Lord = is my strength, = and = He will make my feet like hinds' feet, = and = He will make me to walk on my high places. = To the chief singer on my stringed instruments.

The Prophet spoke here… of the destruction facing Israel in their time of rebellion against God. His focus was on ‘God and His Word’… and not on… the pending doom coming to them. His only hope… in good times or in the evil times… which all God’s people have! “Only in Jehovah God”… and what He said in… “His Word!” Where will You be without… the knowledge of the Word of God…? Will you be ‘Ready’ when… “Christ Jesus”… Comes Back Again…?

(Matthew 24:37-38-39) For = just as it was = in the days = of Noah, = so = it will be = when the Son of Man [Christ Jesus] = comes.
(Matt 24:38) In those days = before the flood, = people = were eating and drinking, = marrying and giving in marriage = right up to the day = when = Noah = went into the ark.
(Matt 24:39) They were = unaware = of what was happening = until = the flood came = and = swept = all of them = away. = That's how it will be = when the Son of Man [Christ Jesus] comes [Again].


(2Peter 3:18) But = grow in grace = and = in knowledge = of our = Lord and Savior = Jesus Christ. = To Him = be the glory, = both now = and = to the day of eternity. = Amen.

“The Word [Law] of God – 601”…Blog. Part: “SIX”.

“The Word [Law] of God – 601”…Blog. Part: “SIX”.

In the last… discussion I shared some of the Covenant Names of God. His character and His Holiness is at issue here. Many relate to God, as they do to another human being. God is nothing like that. He is Not… Santa Clause… as He is often treated so. Many have not looked for God, in His Word… The Bible.

(Numbers 23:19) God = is not a man = that He should = Lie, = neither = the son of man = that He should repent. = Has He said, = and = shall He not do it? = Or has He spoken, = and = shall He not make it good?

Have you ever Lied…? Before you answer, I will tell you that I have. I am the first one to admit that I have in the past. Each and every one of US… ‘Have Lied’. It is part and parcel of our human nature. Since I have become a Born Again Christian… I have endeavored… by the Grace of God… “Not To Lie!” Yes it has always been my choice… to Lie or… to tell the Truth. But now that I have been redeemed by the Christ Jesus, I owe it to Him… to be as He is… in complete Truth.

Just how valid… is the Word of God? Does God speak His Words… as glibly as we humans speak? Our speech is often veiled in our… “Agendas of Life”. Most of us, want to accomplish a need or want. We will go to great lengths to accomplish that goal. The housing crisis has come about because many have… purchased houses… that they could not afford. Their agenda… has brought shame not only on themselves… but on all of society. Most have excused… “Personal Accountability”. But…God has Not!

(Isaiah 55:6-to-11) Seek Jehovah = while He = may be found; = call on Him = while He is near.
(Isa 55:7) Let the wicked = forsake his way, = and = the unrighteous man = his thoughts; = and = let him = return to Jehovah, = and = He will have mercy on him; = and to our God, = for He = will abundantly pardon.
(Isa 55:8) For = My thoughts = are not = your thoughts, = nor = your ways = My ways, = says Jehovah.
(Isa 55:9) For as = the heavens are higher = than the earth, = so are = My ways = higher = than your ways, = and = My thoughts = than = your thoughts.
(Isa 55:10) For as the rain comes down, = and = the snow from the heavens, = and = does not return there, = but waters the earth, = and makes it bring out = and bud, = and give seed to the sower = and bread to the eater;
(Isa 55:11) so shall = My Word = be, = which goes out of = My mouth; = it shall not = return = to Me = void, = but it shall = accomplish = what I please, = and = it shall certainly do = what = I sent it = to do.

During this past month… the USA celebrated the 40th anniversary of man walking on the moon. Those pictures of the earth sent back and the current ones we have from the Space Shuttle are a simple ‘word picture’ of the above verses. God’s Words and God’s Thoughts… are higher than ours could ever be. The heavens are higher than the earth as… His Word… is higher than our words or thoughts. How then could mankind think, that they know better than God?

It is just plain Silliness… to imagine that we could even come close to God’s Wisdom in the things we do about life. He has given us in His Word… ‘The principles of Life’… so that we can lead productive lives that would glorify Him. Most have rejected “His Word”… and so… depend on their own ways. We have made a complete mess of our… “Financial Productions and Security”…with this Government Bail Out. Never will we Recover… from this Mess!

(Luke 4:4) And Jesus answered = him [Satan], = saying, = It is written that = "man shall not live by bread alone, = but = by every Word of God."

Most of us… have learned some Life Principles from our parents. Some have not applied them to their lives. We have to have… a particular car or house or have a special job… as part of our self esteem. Phooey! That kind of thinking is like that old saying… “Clothes make the Man”… so we too have taken to ourselves, such nonsense. Your “Inner Character”… is what makes you! My mother, when she was alive, wanted to buy me a new suit. I told her… ‘Only if is an… Armani!’ After seeing the price and gasping… I told her… I do not really need a new suit.

(John 15:3) Now = you = are clean = through = the Word = which I [Jesus] = have spoken = to you.

(James 1:22) Keep on being = Doers of the Word, = and = not merely hearers = who = Deceive = themselves.

Our Inner Character… can change when we have become Born Again by the Holy Spirit of God. He takes His Word… to be amplified by that Indwelling Holy Spirit… to have us Live out His Word… in our Lives. As He is living in us… we then do those things… that are Right in His Sight! We take on… His Character and His Mind… and change our lives… from the Inside to the Outside… to conform to His Word. We become… “His Word Pictures”… for Him.

Perhaps that is why… there are thousands of verses that tell us how to live. The Word of God… should now: “Take Precedence in our Lives”. We are no longer driven by the World, The Flesh and the Devil. Our Godly Perspective of passing things… causes us to have our ‘Focus and Agenda’… on those things of God and His Word. Your Character… changes You on the Inside…when you come in obedience… to the Word of God!

(Ephesians 4:28-29) The thief = must no longer = steal = but must work hard = and = do what is good = with his own hands, = so that he = might have something to give = to the needy.
(Eph 4:29) Let no filthy talk = come out of your mouths, = but only = what is good = for building up = as the need may be. = This way = you will give grace = to those = who hear you.

(1Corinthians 6:9-10-11) You know that = wicked people = will not inherit = the kingdom of God, = don't you? = Stop deceiving yourselves! = Sexually immoral people, = idolaters, = adulterers, = male prostitutes, = homosexuals,
(1Co 6:10) thieves, = greedy people, = drunks, = slanderers, = and robbers = will not inherit = the kingdom of God.
(1Co 6:11) That is what = some of you = were! = But = you were washed, = you were sanctified, = you were justified = in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ = and = in the Spirit of our God.

Could it be any Plainer…? The salvation offered in Christ Jesus is available without cost to all that will come to Him! The change that takes place is in… “Your Heart!” You then want to please God… in the ‘Keeping of His Word’. It takes the place of… all those things… you once did… in you blindness and ignorance. Your mind and heart are… Transformed into the likeness of Christ Jesus! He now lives in you… and you take His Word as your… “Only”, point of reference.

This inner change… cannot be done by any Religion! It is not some miracle that happens over night either! It is an ongoing process. When you sin, you then, can come before His Throne of Grace and “Confess and Forsake your Sin”. Remember when Christ Jesus died on the Cross… He paid for all Sin… “Past, Present and Future”. Your salvation is based on His Finished Work, by His Death, Burial and Resurrection from the dead… in fulfillment… of the Word of God… “Promised to All”… in the Bible.

(Proverbs 28:13) He who = covers his sins = shall not = be blessed; = but = whoever = confesses = and = leaves them [not to return to them] = shall have mercy.

(1John 1:5-to-10) This is the message = that we have heard = from Him = and = declare to you: = God is light, = and = in Him = there is no darkness = none at all!
(1Jn 1:6) If = we claim = that we have fellowship = with Him = but = keep living in the darkness, = we are Lying = and = the Truth = is not = in us.
(1Jn 1:7) But = if we = keep living in the light = as He Himself = is in the light, = we have fellowship = with one another, = and = the blood of Jesus = His Son = cleanses us = from all sin.
(1Jn 1:8) If we say = that we = do not have any sin, = we are deceiving = ourselves = and = the Truth = is not in us.
(1Jn 1:9) If we make it = our habit = to confess our sins, = He is faithful = and = righteous = to forgive us those sins = and = cleanse us from = all unrighteousness.
(1Jn 1:10) If we say = that we have never sinned, = we make Him = a liar = and = His Word = is not in us.

Now how very Important… does the Word of God = The Law of God = Now seem to You? Has it come as a ‘casual suggestion’ for you… to choose or not to choose? Or is it in fact… Your Life? By the way you conform or not conform to… “The Word of God”… is the evidence of Your Faith! Live the Word of God… ‘By Faith’… ‘In Faith’… and… you cannot go wrong!

Take some time… to re-read over these posts about the Word [Law] of God. I make it a practice to read & study the Word of God, every day. It is a practice that I started as a New Christian… and it has become my lifestyle. When things came upon me… that I did not understand… I simply went to the Word of God… for answers. What things? How about the cancer surgery and radiation treatments…that I had some 9-years ago?

(Job 2:10) But he said to her, = You speak as one of the foolish ones speak. = What? = Shall we receive = Good = at the hand of God, = and = shall we not [also] receive = Evil? = In all this = Job = did not sin = with his lips.

(2Corinthians 12:9-10) but He has told me, = "My grace is all you need, = for My power = is perfected = in [your] weakness." = Therefore, = I will most happily boast = about my weaknesses, = so that Christ's power = may rest on me.
(2Cor 12:10) That is why I = take such pleasure in weaknesses, = insults, = hardships, = persecutions, = and = difficulties for Christ's sake, = for when I am weak, = then I am strong.

The Word of God… simply ‘Has’ a Principle of Life for ‘each and every’ situation of Life. Remember… the Trials of Life… only proves to us… IF we are trusting Him or… Ourselves. The Word is…Better than Gold and Riches… for they are Passing Away. The Word of God… remains Eternal! Imagine in all this Time… God has provided and protected His Word… for All Mankind. But, Most have rejected… ‘IT!’

(Matthew 24:35) The heaven and the earth = shall pass away, = but = My Words = shall not = pass away.

Did you have Breakfast… today? Most of us will have two or three or more meals this day. Most of us will… also snack… in between. How then should we feed our Spiritual Bodies with the Word of God? Once a week, only on Sundays… Just How Often? at least… “daily!”

(2Corinthians 4:16) That's why = we = are not discouraged. = No, = even if = our outer man = is wearing out, = our inner man = is being renewed = day by day.

Are you… who say, your know Jesus… feeding your inner man… on His Word – Daily? If not then you are experiencing… “A Famine of the Soul”. Simply think about it. You may watch videos or TV for “___” -hours a Day? And Only… feeding your Soul… How Often? Perhaps now is the time to make that decision and… Obey the Word of God! That is how… You… Grow in His Grace!

(2Peter 3:18) But = grow in grace = and = in knowledge of our = Lord and Savior = Jesus Christ. = To Him = be the glory, = both now = and = to the day of eternity. = Amen.

“The Word [Law] of God – 501”…Blog. Part: FIVE

“The Word of God – 501”…Blog. Part: 'FIVE'

Who is this God… the God of the Bible that I speak about in these Blogs? He is the Only GOD… and He created “All”. In His creation of mankind… His own creation rebelled against Him. He sent the World Wide Flood of Noah… to destroy mankind off the face of the earth. Only 8 were saved and started again.

He God… has revealed Himself through His creation. He has also revealed Himself in His Word, called… the Law of God = equal to = The Word of God. Only ‘Those’… of every nation, every peoples and every were… who are seeking Him… will find Him. Once I had someone say to me… what about the Heathen in the darkest part of the civilized world…?

(Psalms 98:2-3) Jehovah God = has made known = His salvation; = His righteousness = He has unveiled = to the eyes of the nations.
(Psalms 98:3) He has remembered = His mercy and His Truth = toward the house of Israel; = all the ends of the earth = have seen the salvation of Jehovah God.

(Romans 1:18-to-22) For God's wrath = is being revealed from heaven = against all the ungodliness and wickedness = of those who = in their wickedness = suppress the Truth.
(Rom 1:19) For what can be known = about God = is plain to them, = because = God Himself = has made it plain = to them.
(Rom 1:20) For since the creation of the world = His invisible attributes = His eternal power = and divine nature = have been understood and observed = by what He made, = so that people = are without excuse.
(Rom 1:21) For although = they knew God, = they neither glorified Him as God = nor gave thanks to Him. = Instead, = their thoughts turned to worthless things, = and their ignorant hearts = were darkened.
(Rom 1:22) Though claiming to be wise, = they became fools.

Now which of you… will tell me that you never knew about God…? The evolutionists often claim that man evolved. Just a theory… but they won’t admit that. Complexity cannot come from non-complexity. My Pentium 2 computer did not… “Evolve”… into a Pentium 5…! Just tell those people at… ‘Intel or IBM’… that the computer… just evolved… On Its Own…! …LOL!

How important does God… hold His Word to Be? As I have stated before… Mankind needs a savior… Who God has provided in the… “God Man = Christ Jesus!” Do you know what the word “Christ” means? It means… “Messiah = The Anointed One!” But to do what…? Surely you have heard of the Jewish Feast of the… Passover? That is simply a… “Word Picture”… of the Redeemer… “Christ Jesus”.

(1Corinthains 5:7) Get rid of the old yeast = so that you = may be a new batch of dough, = since you are to be free from yeast. = For Christ, = our Passover, = has been sacrificed.

Did you ever… see that verse in that Context? God reveals Himself and His plans for mankind through His Word. I often like to use this verse… when teaching elementary kids Sunday School… where they can find out about… “God”. Perhaps some adults could use this lesson too…?

(1Samuel 3:21) And Jehovah appeared again in Shiloh. = For Jehovah God = revealed Himself = to Samuel = in Shiloh = by = the Word of Jehovah God.

(1Samuel 3:21) And Jehovah appeared again in Shiloh. = For Jehovah God = revealed Himself
= to Samuel = = [Insert your name] ______________
= in Shiloh = = [Insert your city] ______________
= by = = [How did He do it…?]
= the Word of Jehovah God. = By the Word of God, The Bible.

(Deuteronomy 29:29) The secret things = belong to = Jehovah our God, = but the revealed things = belong to us = and to our sons forever, = so that we may = do all = the words of this Law.

Pretty Simple… once you know the Key! God uses… His Word = His Law… to reveal Himself and His plans for mankind. Well you may say… that Old Testament… was just for the Jews. Do you really believe that? You mean the “10-commandments”… were just for the Jews? Where do you think society got those universal Truths? You shall not… Murder, Adultery, Steal or Lie… are not for Everyone… and Only for the Jews…? …NOT!

To know about God… and His Word and His Law… one must know about His Name? Well I thought His Name is God? That is only one of the English Translations. His Name… reveals His Character. Only then can we… begin to realize… Who God really is!

1. Elohim… “God” His power and might… Genesis 1:1 & Psalms 19:1.
2. El-Elyon… “Most High God... Gen 14:17-20, Isaiah 14:13-14.
3. El Olam… “The Everlasting God”… Isaiah 40:28-31.
4. El Roi… “The Strong One that sees”… Genesis 16:13.
5. El Shaddi… “God Almighty”… Genesis 17:1 & Psalms 91:3.
6. Adonai… “Lord”, the Lordship of God… Malachi 1:16.
7. Jehovah… “(Yahweh) The Lord, God’s Eternal Nature… Genesis 2”4.
8. Jehovah-Jireh… “The Lord will provide”… Genesis 22:13-14.
9. Jehovah-Maccaddeshem… “The Lord your sanctifier”… Exodus 31:13.
10. Jehovah-Nissi… ‘The Lord our banner”… Exodus 17:15.
11. Jehovah-Rapha… “The Lord our healer”… Exodus 15:26.
12. Jehovah-Rohi… “The Lord my shepherd”… Psalms 23:1.
13. Jehovah-Sabboah… “The Lord of Hosts”… Isaiah 6:1-to-3.
14. Jehovah-Shalom… “The Lord is peace”… Judges 6:24.
15. Jehovah-Shammah… “The Lord Who is present”… Ezekiel 48:35.
16. Jehovay-Tsidkenu… “The Lord our righteousness… Jeremiah 23:6
17. I AM… “The Lord Eternal”… Exodus 3:12-15.

There are other… “Names of God”… throughout the Scriptures. These are just a few to whet your appetite and get you studying on your own. We can see through this partial list… that the Nature of God… is displayed… through His Name. We use names to convey… “Charter and Achievements”… of those humans we hold in esteem. [.i.e.] Abraham Lincoln… Etc. But… what does God say about… “His Word”… in relation to… “His Names”…?

(Psalms 138:2) I will worship toward = Your holy temple, = and = praise Your Name = for Your loving-kindness = and = for Your Truth's sake; = for = You = = have magnified = = Your Word = = above all = = Your Name.

The Word of God… must be pretty important because God has set His Word… above His Name! God’s Nature and Attributes are revealed in His Word. Yes… The Law of God… The Word of God… is what is Truth! “Nothing More… Nothing Less!” In all the knowledge about God that you have heard… from the religious… have you ever… been told this…? God holds His Word… above His Name…! God’s handbook for mankind… is there for you!

Those that reject… “The Word of God… The Bible”… do so to their own harm. God wants us to Love Him… out of what He has done for us. It is your… “Free Will”… that He has given you, that allows you to make that… “Choice!” Yes, even the Jews to whom was given the Law and the Covenants looked forward towards that day that the Messiah would come… for Both the Jew and the Gentile [Nations]… with Salvation.

God’s people… the ‘Jews’ were to be a witness for… Him! They failed even to recognize that Christ… was the Promised Redeemer. The Gentiles were given… “The Gospel = the Good News of Salvation through… “Christ Jesus”… by faith in His finished work… on the Cross and His Resurrection from the Dead. He triumphed over the grave and death… to bring Eternal Life to all that would accept Him… on ‘His Terms’ and not on the Law given to Israel.

This belief in His Finished Work… was payment for… all sin for all time and eternity… Only on His Terms. But you may say… what are His Terms. I thought all I had to do… was to believe in Jesus? A coin has two sides. That belief in Christ Jesus is only one side. Why did Christ Jesus have to die? Can you answer that? Mankind… had Violated the Law of God! In violation of one law… All… are guilty of All The Law.

(James 2:10) For whoever = shall keep = the whole Law = and = yet offend in one point, = he is guilty of all.

Due to the Just Nature of God… He requires a sacrifice of Life. The first word picture was that of a Lamb. Most know about Adam and Eve and their Sons… “Cain & Able.” Able brought a Lamb and Cain brought… his own works. So it is today, the same… “Word Picture”… is displayed in those that… think they are good enough for heaven… “By Their Own Works!”

(Isaiah 64:6-7) But we are all as the unclean thing, = and = all our righteousness’s = are as a menstruation cloth. = And we all fade as a leaf; = and our iniquities, = like the wind, = have taken us away.
(Isaiah 64:7) And there is no one = who calls on Your name, = who stirs up himself = to take hold of You. = For You have hidden Your face from us, = and = have melted us away = because of our iniquities.

That particular word… “Iniquities” simply means… “Lawlessness!” Our self righteousness and our lawlessness… have been accounted to us. There is nothing we can do… but to though ourselves… On the Mercy of God… in that Finished Work of Christ Jesus… The Passover Lamb… that was “Sacrificed”… For Us!

(Luke 24:44-to-48) Then He [Jesus] = said to them, = "These are My words = that I spoke to you = while I was still with you = that everything = written about Me = in the law of Moses, = the Prophets, = and = the Psalms = = had to be fulfilled."
(Luke 24:45) Then He = opened their minds = so that they = might come to understand = = the Scriptures.
(Luke 24:46) He said to them, = "Thus it is written, = that the Christ [Messiah] = was to suffer = and = to rise from the dead = on the third day,
(Luke 24:47) and that = repentance = and = forgiveness of sins = is to be proclaimed = in His Name = to = all = the nations, = beginning at Jerusalem.
(Luke 24:48) You = are witnesses = of these things.

Please allow me… to ask You… “Does this sound like… ‘Just Believe in Jesus’… or… Not?” “All the Things… written in the Law of Moses, and Prophets and Psalms… “Had to be Fulfilled!” This is the Gospel… that “You & I”… have broken God’s Law = God’s Word… and He God… has provided Christ [Messiah Jesus = The Passover Sacrifice] for Our “Sin/Sins”… in the Death, Burial and Resurrection… from the Dead… for Our Justification to God! “Paid in Full!”

The True Gospel… has been so watered down… that many have been led to a… ‘False hope of Heaven!’ Their lives have not changed though… “Repentance!” They have no knowledge of what is sin and what is not! They have ‘NO Hunger’… for the Spiritual Truth of the Word of God… the Bible! They seldom read let alone… “Obey the Word of God!” Say it isn’t So?

How many Christians… have read or seen Harry Potter… forbidden by… “Deuteronomy 18:10-to-13? How many Christians have Divorced & Remarried in violation of Mark 10:11-12? Need I go on? I do not accuse or excuse ANY… I simply share with You… What God has said in His Word = His Law = The Bible…!

The Love of God… is simply revealed in Your Obedience... to Him and His Word… The Bible!

(2Peter 3:18) But = grow in grace = and = in knowledge of our = Lord and Savior = Jesus Christ. = To Him = be the glory, = both now = and = to the day of eternity. = Amen.

“Fried Chicken – 101”…Blog.

“Fried Chicken – 101”…Blog.

ROGER’s - 'Real American' - Fried Chicken!

Please find my… Recipe for Fried Chicken: Please feel free to modify any portion to your likening, although it may not be so good! [Just joking]

I often try, use, and modify a recipe several times... till I get it where... 'I like it!'

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5TV52hloN_8

Once, I tried to… "Please everybody, but found that was "Impossible!" as I even have a hard time pleasing myself!" I have listed Brand Name products here, but I always use the Wal-Mart Brand, for the savings!

ROGERS, 'Real American' [cross out my name and insert yours here, by my permission!] FRIED CHICKEN!

IMPORTANT NOTICE: You must read all the instructions completely "first" and have a general understanding of basic cooking and food preparation practices before attempting this = “People Winning Recipe!” This is for your protection, that of your guests, and especially 'that of the Chicken!' [Just joking!]

Also - the Brand Names used here are "only" for a point of reference for products. I often show at Wal-Mart and use their 'own brand' that is at substantial cost savings! Please feel Free to use your own substitution!

You may also... "add your own spices and/or ingredients" such as particular 'hot or mild’ Chilies or peppers or flavorings either natural or synthetic!

1. First select the brand of Chicken, I usually wait till the Purdue Brand is on sale or your local store brand, and then I buy 2-4 and place 2-3 of them in my freezer. [Not for longer than six weeks] IF frozen, be sure to THAW in the refrigerator and not on the counter top!

2. I take the chicken from its store wrapped package, remove the internal innards package, and wash the entire chicken, inside and outside, at least 3 times ONLY with running tap water!

3. Important: Use an extremely sharp knife! I cut the chicken in pieces, cut and separate the whole leg from the body, where it attachés to the back. Cut this leg and thigh apart. Do the other leg assembly also.

4. Separate and cut the wing assembly from the body, but leave this part complete. Separate and cut the breast from the back assembly. Leave the back whole. Cut the breast assembly into half, side to side, just where the breastbone attachés the cartilage. You have to cut and separate this.

5. Wash thoroughly with running water these chicken pieces and place into a large plastic bowl. Take at least 3 trays of ice cubes or equivalent chunks of ice - into the bowl. Take "One Handful or equivalent" of Table Salt or Kosher Salt and place into the same bowl. Just cover the chicken with water and stir by hand till the salt is mixed up. Add additional two trays of more of ICE if necessary!

6. Important: The chicken must always have a sufficient quantity of ICE in the solution, in order to prevent the growth of bacteria. 'At NO Time', must the Chicken be left without any Ice! Place covered? Into the refrigerator? till the appropriate time is up.

7. Allow to stand for 1 to 2 hours. All processed meat, poultry and the like, are refrigerated. There is some moisture loss, due to this process. This solution will 'infuse the chicken with additional moisture, and make it finger licking good!' [Very moist also!]

8. Now, while the chicken is 're-hydrating', "Thoroughly Wash Your Hands and 'preparation area and implements', with some type of Anti-bacterial Dish Detergent, such as the Palmolive Brand that I use! This is imperative, as there can be no bacteria contamination of the workspace.

9. Prepare in a Ziploc, extra large, gallon or larger, 'Double Plastic Bags [one inside of the other] a mixture for 'Special Coating the Chicken.' Sometimes I substitute a Wal-Mart plastic shopping bags. Take 1 cup, any All-Purpose Flower and place it into the bag. Take 2 tablespoons of Lawry's Seasoned Salt, [regular table salt will suffice if you don't have it] and 1/2 tablespoon of McCormick Garlic Salt, and 1/2 tablespoon of McCormick Onion Salt. Place these into plastic bag with the flower. Now, it is imperative that? You grind? 'McCormick Peppercorn's to obtain one tablespoon of black pepper. If you do not have a pepper grinder, substitute pre-ground pepper. Place into mixture. Take 1 TEASPOON not tablespoon of McCormick Paprika and add in to the dry solution. CLOSE THE BAGS, the inner one first and then the outer one. Thoroughly shake this mixture till it is completely mixed, and set aside.

10. This should be done just prior to the completion of the chicken soaking preparation. Take a large bowl, and break two larger or jumbo eggs, [substitute 3 small ones] along with 1/4 cup of buttermilk. [Half- &-half can be substituted] Beat this mixture with a whisk till thoroughly mixed.

11. Preheat your cooking oil, a mixture of, "3/4 Mazola Corn Oil or Wesson Corn Oil and 1/4 California Virgin Olive Oil", or equivalent in a larger cooking pot to 350 degrees F. I generally use a pot with high sides 1/3 full of cooking oil mixture. In addition, I ALWAYS use a candy thermometer to ensure that the temperature is right! Under no circumstances allow your oil to get hotter than 365 degrees F.

12. Locate a 'cake rack or similar device' for allowing the chicken to drain. Remove each piece of the chicken from the 'soaking solution', and place on this 'rack'. 'Do Not Rinse the Chicken!' Dispose of the soaking solution down the drain. Allow the chicken to? Air Dry? For a few minutes? Or? Pat dry with a paper towel. Take the chicken and place it into the egg mixture, and thoroughly coat the chicken with this egg wash, by turning the chicken over and over. Remove each piece and place on the cake rack to drain for approximately one minute. As an alternative you [as I often do] substitute Buttermilk for the egg wash!

13. Open the bags with the coating mixture and place the egg washed coated chicken into the bags. Seal each bag and grasp the bags by the Zip Lock end and mildly shake or turn till the chicken is completely coated!

14. When your oil is at temperature, Remove the chicken with "Tongs!" not your fingers! Place the larger pieces, the breast and the legs into the oil first. Cook these till golden brown, and place on Scott Paper Towels or equivalent to drain as you are frying the remaining pieces.

15. Serve hot, or room temperature, with Potato Salad, [Both Home Made] Cole Slaw and Boiled Fresh Corn, Lausanne, Nestea or Lipton Ice Tea! "DO NOT SERVE WITH A CARBONATED BEVERAGE! The carbonation will fill you with gas and not chicken! Enjoy! You may double this recipe, if you are going to have a Crowd!

16. If you do not want to deep-fry the chicken, you may obtain the approximate results with an "Oven Bake" at 350 degrees F, for 40-45 minutes. Some persons cannot tolerate any oil of any type, and this is a permissible substitute for deep-frying.

17. After frying the chicken, let the oil cool, covered, and filter and safe for the next fry. I only use my oil twice and then dispose of it. Do not allow any of the solids to enter the clean container used for this oil storage. I normally only save about 3/4 of this oil and add fresh oil for the next frying to obtain the specific liquid quantity for my frying Pot or deep fryer.

18. This is implied permission to claim this recipe for "Your Own!" Freely I have developed with time and experimentation - Freely I share!

Thank you for allowing me to share this recipe with you. E-Mail: atruth459@yahoo.com

“The Law of God – 401”…Blog, Part ‘FOUR’.

“The Law of God – 401”…Blog, Part ‘FOUR’.

There are about… Over ‘1100’… Old & New Testament… “Laws = Testimonies = Precepts = Commandments = Judgments = and the like”… Contained in the Word of God. All this is the… “Law of God”… which can be summed up in the Term… “The Word of God!”

You see, “ALL” these… are for us ‘to know’ the… “Mind of God”… so that we may live in the …“Fear of God”…and… “Through and In”… “The Love of God”. The “Love of God” = The “Word of God} will either… Drive You… “To God”… or… ‘Away from God’… depending… “ONLY” on Your response to it.

(Hebrews 4:12-13) For the Word of God = is living and powerful = and = sharper than any two-edged sword, = piercing even to = the dividing apart = of soul = and = spirit, = and = of the joints and marrow, = and = is a discerner of = the thoughts = and = intents = of the heart.
(Heb 4:13) Neither = is there any creature = that is not manifest = in His sight, = but = all things are = naked = and = opened = to the eyes of Him [GOD] = with Whom = we have to do.

(Jeremiah 23:29) Is not My Word = like a fire? = Says Jehovah; = and = like a hammer = that breaks the rock in pieces?

How many times… have you seen a video or TV… where the term… ‘GD’… was used? I then simply turn off the program or video. Many simply excuse it a part of the lingo used by Hollywood. God does not like His Name… Blasphemed… by humans and will hold all accountable for that. They simply do it… because they… “Do Not… Fear God…!”

(Exodus 20:7) You = shall not = take the name = of Jehovah your God = in vain. = For Jehovah = will hold him guilty = that takes = His name in vain.

In this continuing… discussion of the… “Law of God being the Word of God”… I would like you to consider… “The Fear of God!” Right now, some would say that we are to Love God! Yes, that is ‘True’; but that only focuses on… ‘ONLY ONE’… of the Attributes of God… without taking into context… “All of God and His Nature!”

(Numbers 23:19) God = is not a man = that He = should Lie, = neither = the Son of man = that He = should repent. = Has He said, = and = shall He = not do it? = Or has He spoken, = and = shall He = not make it good?

Most casually speak… about God as though He were like us “Humans”. He… is ‘Noting of the Sort!’ Many are so confused by the Media. To know about God… one must study His Word… as He reveals Himself… through His Word. See 1Samuel 3:21 & Deuteronomy 29:29. Many of us relate to God because we have taken… ‘songs such as this’… in our understanding of God.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e8ji_yGd5k0&feature=related

Too bad… that we allow the Media to… force feed us… their Garbage. Unless you reject the wrong… it becomes a part of your Psyche. Why do you think that so many people smoke? Rational human beings… know about the harmful effects of Smoking. One can hardly watch a video, where someone is not… ‘Smoking!’ So it is… you become… what you accept mentally.

Why then should… we ‘Fear God?’ Perhaps because we relate fear as a, ‘Negative Emotion’. Yet it is very “Helpful” when learning to drive. We dare not… wreck the car! We dare not swim in a… ‘Rip Tide’… at the beach. We dare not stay in a burning building… but run out… immediately. Fear can be a healthy emotion when applied correctly. All of us… ‘Lock our doors at night’… for a healthy fear to stay… Safe! If you speed… you will surely get a ticket, with a healthy… ‘Fine!’ You ‘only’ fear the Police… when you do something wrong… not when you are ‘Doing Right!’

To correctly understand… the ‘Fear of God’ one must know what He says about it… in His Word, the Bible. Most of us had parents that taught us… ‘Right from Wrong’. So too as an adult… we understand those concepts. It is wrong of our employer ‘to cheat us’… on our pay and benefits. One place I worked at.. we did not get a ‘pay raise’… but the Owner took a ‘Big Bonus!’

(Proverbs 16:6) By mercy and truth, = iniquity is purged, = and = by the fear of Jehovah = men = turn away = from evil.

(Ecclesiastes 12:13-14) Let us hear = the conclusion = of the whole matter. = Fear God, = and = keep = His commandments. = For this is = the whole duty = of man.
(Eccl 12:14) For God = shall bring every work = into judgment, = with every secret thing, = whether = it is good, = or = whether evil.

Each of us… as adults, knows how to behave ourselves. Perhaps I should say… “Should Know?” In something as simple as a… ‘Job Interview’… we ‘Do Not’… tell our perspective employer… what we want. We do not tell them… when we will come to work or when we will go home. IF we did, surely we would ‘not’ be offered employment. One of the other… ‘Hundreds of Applicants’ would be offered the position. Why then would we… ‘Disrespect’… “God?”

Why should I… respect God… some would say… ‘What has He ever done for me?’ That seems to be the attitude of most Americans. They may attend church… ‘Easter and maybe Christmas’… and hardly ever think about Him any other times. Do you remember… “9-11”… and the terror most had… “Thinking that another attack was emanate?”

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oj-GkDJpr2Y

People that never… thought about God… went to Church. Did you… “Fear God”… while you watched the Twin Towers… fall to the ground… killing thousands? How about after the Pentagon… was crashed into by that plane? Did you think that you too… would be involved? Who... did you FEAR… ‘The Terrorists… or… God?”

(Matthew 10:28) Stop being afraid = of those = who kill the body = but = can't kill = the soul. = Instead, = be afraid of = the One = Who can destroy = both body and soul = in hell.

(Isaiah 8:13) Sanctify = Jehovah of Hosts Himself, = and = let = Him = be your fear, = and = let = Him = be your dread.

(2Corinthains 5:10-11) For we = must = all = appear before = the judgment seat = of Christ, = so that = each one = may receive = the things done = through the body, = according to = that which he has done, = whether = good = or = bad.
(2Co 5:11) Therefore, = knowing = the fear of the Lord, = we persuade men. = But we are revealed to God, = and I trust also = that we are revealed in your consciences.

About this time… Some may realize that they have… “Never pleased God”… only themselves! We all have… as we have learned that from society and… not from God and His Word, the Bible. Each of us… are sinners… and because of that we need… “A Savior = Christ Jesus!” Some already know Him… and others… do not want to at any cost to themselves. Still there are… You Others… who are sitting on the… “Fence of Indecision!” Remember this… “No One”… gets away with… “Anything!”

“Not to… ‘Decide’ = Is to… ‘Decide’…!” It is up to… You!

(2Corinthains 6:1-2) Since, then, = we are working with God, = we plead = with you = not to accept God's grace = in vain.
(2Cor 6:2) For He says, = "At the right time = I [God] heard you, = and = on a day of salvation = I helped you." = Listen, = now is really = the "right time"! = Now is the "day of salvation"!

(Romans 10:9-to-13) If you declare = with your mouth = that Jesus = is Lord, = and = believe in your heart = that God = raised Him = from the dead, = you = will be saved.
(Rom 10:10) For a person = believes with his heart = and = is justified, = and = a person declares = with = his mouth = and = is saved.
(Rom 10:11) For = the Scripture says, = "Everyone = who believes in Him = will not be ashamed."
(Rom 10:12) For there is = no difference between = Jew and Gentile, = because they all = have the same Lord, = Who gives richly to all = who call on Him.
(Rom 10:13) For = "everyone = who calls on = the name of the Lord = will be saved."

Prayer [You can Pray]: “Father God”… Your Word says I am a helpless sinner and have broken your Law! I am helpless to save myself in doing good. You said that IF I will confess my need of You as my Savior… I will be saved. I do not fully understand it… but I come to You… just as I am. Help me to know You and to understand your Word. I throw myself on Your mercy and on Your justice… paid in Christ Jesus. Thank you for cleansing me from my sin. Help me to be obedient to You and Your Word, I pray this in Jesus’ Name… and for Your Glory… Amen & Amen!

Please... write for help to grow Spiritually.

Thank you for Your ‘EAR!’ Roger. //Email// roger459@gmail.com

“Diamond – 101”…Blog.

“Diamond – 101”…Blog.





Some time ago… I was going through my dresser drawers and found my ‘Diamond’. I did not really forget about it, but did not have any immediate use for it, as the saying goes, ‘Out of Sight… Out of Mind. Often times we have pictures for that very purpose. They remind us of someone or something. I love to take pictures when I travel.



Here is the Story…! No, she didn't break the Engagement! NO, I did not give it to her! Yes, that is my ring! NO... I did not Offer it to YOU...! NO... I am Not ‘Fishing’ … for A Girlfriend! And... NO… I do not have one now…! …LOL!



Some years ago… when I worked in… “Worldwide Field Service”… and I visited a Manufacturing Plant in Connecticut! The machine operator Andre and I got to be friends, as I frequently visited them for ‘Periodic Service’ on their “Plasma Machine”. No, not Blood… but “Electronic Plasma” in a ‘Vacuum Chamber’ for processing… Circuit Boards and Silicon Wafers! …High Tech!



Andre was engaged… to his next door neighbor. He owned the duplex, and they dated. His 9-year old daughter and her ‘Son 6 and Daughter 10’… got along just Fine! He got engaged to her! Bad News! Her previous ‘Boyfriend’… got out of Jail as an ‘Early Release for Good Behavior!’ He served 5 of 7-year sentence for Dealing Cocaine and other drugs.



The old boyfriend… ‘MOVED IN’… with this girl, even though She was Engaged to Andre! …OUCH! He asked for the ring back, and she said NO! He had paid over $3600 for the ring, a “1.38C Marquise Diamond - Engagement Ring!”… BAM!



One day… Her cat was outside and Andre took that cat into… His House! She sent both of her Children over… and Asked for… “The Cat!” Andre asked the kids, “Is your mommy’s boyfriend still there?” They replied YES! Then they said, “Mommy is going to marry him… And Not You!” … BAM!



Andre calmly said… “When your mommy gives me the Ring… She may have ‘The Cat’… Back!” About 10-minutes later, the kids brought… ‘The Ring’ over… and asked for the CAT! He complied and gave them, ‘The Cat!” … BAM!



Andre told me… this story as we were having lunch, and shared with me, “One of the guys here offered me, ‘$1,000’ for the ring”. I may have to do it… for I have an attorney bill due next week for $800. I asked him, “Will YOU take $1,100 for it NOW?” He said YES! I paid him and have had that ‘Ring’... just sitting around for some time!



I almost… traded it for a ‘Sniper Rifle’ at a Gun Show some time ago… and… almost one time, for a Boat & Motor! But thought… I better hold on to it… Just in Case! I may even have the stone made into a ‘Mans Ring’… except I do not wear Rings! … BAM!

(Matthew 16:26) For what profit will a person have if he gains the whole world and forfeits his soul? Or what can a person give in exchange for his soul?

“Global Warming -101” …Blog.

“Global Warming -101” …Blog.

This Picture… is of …“Old Faithful”… the geyser in ‘Yellowstone National Park’ here in the USA. It is really quite spectacular as are the… Many Hot Pools… and other earth warming volcanic outpourings there. Should we… ‘Cap It’… to prevent it from… ‘Warming’… our planet…? …LOL!

Simply answer these questions!

First = The Earth is How Old: _______ -Years?
Second = We have been collecting Temperature Data for: ______-Years?
Third = What is the percentage of “Data” do we have for… Warming Validity: ____-%?

NOW we must… “Examine”… the population Numbers of this planet. We have worldwide about… “6,500,000,000-Billion”… people. Here in America, we have about …“310,000,000-Million”… people. We are less than… “5%”… of the entire World Population. Are We ‘[Alone] Going to Save this Planet?…NOT! Remember the promise of Change… but to What…?

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TF5F6eYho8U

This massive spending… legislation that just passed the house, is Loaded with… “PORK BARREL SPENDING FOR ENVIROMENTAL ISSUES!” Billions… not Millions! Whose… ‘GNP – gross national product’ is this… “Useless Spending”… going to Affect? Only the… “5%”… of this planets population… America! Remember the promise of …Change… but Change to What…?

Global Means… “Worldwide…!” How could anyone be so silly to believe such a Lie? Where is the “Validated Data”… covering each continent… and its countries… temperature histories? It does NOT exist! One has only… to think this issue through… and not believe… what is fed to us in the Media or by… ‘Al Gore!’ …LOL!

‘Global Warming’ is… a “False Term!” It is “NOT”… based on Science… but on the “FALSE Religion of Environmentalism!” Lest look at their Agenda? Again… “Global” means… ‘World Wide.’ This planet earth is covered but almost… “75%-Water”. How then could it be called… “Global”… when it is Not? … Simply… “LIES!”

Some of the Oceans… go to a depth of 6-miles. Are there… ‘Temperature Monitoring Stations’… “Worldwide”… on the ‘Seas and Oceans?’ …NOT! Do other nations have a massive governmental bureaucracy such as the EPA? …NOT! We have… “NOT”… held our Congress or Senate to… “Such Scrutiny”… over Financial Issues… and they have… “Failed To Protect the Public”. How then can we believe such… ‘Environmental Issues’… as this “Supposed Global Warming?” …NOT!

Are other nations… monitoring and recording temperatures… as we do here in America? …NOT! Remember America is ONLY… “5%... of the World’s population!” Remember the promise of Change… but to What…? How many temperature monitoring stations are there on the “75%” water that covers this planet… “Worldwide?” Where is the Data to make such claims…? “Not Existent!”

What about the… carbon dioxide, the ozone, and other pollutants that contribute to… The ‘Supposed’… Global Warming? Perhaps I may ask you… what is OUR Government or Any Other Government… “DOING” to… Stop Volcanoes… like “Mount St. Helens”, “Mt. Pinatubo” and the ‘Many Others’… “That spew more gases than ‘mankind’ can generate?” …NOTHING! Simply because we cannot control them, The Volcanoes! Remember the promise of Change… but to What…? “Waco Environmentalism!”

What everyone fails… to take into mind is “Long Term Trends”. Historically, the Polar temperatures have… “NOT Varied”… more than… “0.5 degrees”… over the last… “HUNDRED YEARS!” Where then is this… “Supposed Global Warming?” Only in the “Little Minds”… of those NOT… given to Reasoning and Scientific data. Notice I said Varied… “Not Risen!”

“El Nino and La Nina”… are weather temperature trends over a 'few' short years. We can do nothing to change them world-wide. Historically, we have been tracking Only OUR Temperature… here in the USA as part of the EPA research. NO Other Nation spends so much of their “GNP – Gross National Product”… on such silliness.

What is their Agenda?... We have already seen how our Government has… “WASTED”… our resources on bailing out… the “Financial Institutions”, “Insurance companies” and “Brokerage firms”. Need I even, have you remember this… “Home Mortgage Crisis?” Lending monies for… ‘Over Priced Properties’… to “PEOPLE”… Without Good Credit Histories… and… ‘WHO’… by “No Means”… could continue to make the Payments? Spending Good after Bad! Remember the promise of Change… but to What…?

“Forget YOU… I got Mine!”… This seems to be the attitude of… “Most” of the Liberal Politian’s. They cover these facts with Spendings that… Are “NOT Sane”… nor… will provide “Jobs” or “Long Term Security!” They offer you, their… “FALSE RELIGION OF ENVIROMENTALISM!”… and tell you… “The 5%”… that YOU TOO… can Save the Planet! …NOT! Remember the promise of Change… but to What…?

(2Thessalonians 2:9-10-11) The coming of the lawless one will be accompanied by the power of Satan. He will use every kind of power, including miraculous signs, lying wonders,
(2Thes 2:10) And every type of evil to deceive those who are dying, those who refused to love the Truth that would save them.
(2Thes 2:11) For this reason, God will send them a powerful delusion so that they will believe the lie.

“The Law of God – 303”…Blog, Part ‘THREE’.

“The Law of God – 303”…Blog, Part ‘THREE’.

In my starting discussion… of the “Law of God” I found that due to, length constraints, I was not able to do proper justice to my explanation of this topic. It was just to get your and my ‘thinking’ started. I will continue this periodically trying to tie-together the… “Truth of the Word of God”… with other verses in the Bible. Please allow me to share these… “Core Truths”… with you again?

There are about… Over ‘1100’… Old & New Testament… “Laws = Testimonies = Precepts = Commandments = Judgments = and the like”… Contained in the Word of God. All this is the… “Law of God”… which can be summed up in the Term… “The Word of God!”

You see, “ALL” these… are for us ‘to know’ the… “Mind of God”… so that we may live in the …“Fear of God”…and… “Through and In”… “The Love of God”. The “Love of God” = The “Word of God} will either… Drive You… “To God”… or… ‘Away from God’… depending… “ONLY” on Your response to it.

(Hebrews 4:12-13) For the Word of God = is living and powerful = and = sharper than any two-edged sword, = piercing even to = the dividing apart = of soul = and = spirit, = and = of the joints and marrow, = and = is a discerner of = the thoughts = and = intents = of the heart.
(Heb 4:13) Neither = is there any creature = that is not manifest = in His sight, = but = all things are = naked = and = opened = to the eyes of Him [GOD] = with Whom = we have to do.

Who is this GOD… that I speak about? What does He say about Himself and what does He say about the ‘other supposed gods that are called gods? Could it be that there are many gods or is there Just ONE? Or could it be that there is only one God… and peoples call Him by other names, that really mean Him. … “NOT…!”

(Isaiah 44:6) So says Jehovah, = the King of Israel, = and = His redeemer = Jehovah of Hosts; = I am the first, = and = I am the last; = and = besides = Me = there is = no God.

(Genesis 1:1) In the beginning = God = created = the heavens = and = the earth.

(Deuteronomy 4:32-to-35) For ask now = of the days past which were before you, = since the day that = God = created man = upon the earth, = and = from the one end of the heavens = to the other end of the heavens, = where there has been = a thing = as great as this, = or = has been heard any like it.
(Deut 4:33) Did people = ever hear = the voice of God = speaking out of the midst of the fire = as you have heard = and live?
(Deut 4:34) Or has God = gone forth = to take a nation = for Himself = from the midst of a nation, = by trials, = by signs, = and = by wonders, = and = by war, = and = by a mighty hand, = and = by a stretched out arm, = and = by great terrors, = according to all = that Jehovah your God = did for you = in Egypt = before your eyes?
(Deut 4:35) It was shown = to you = so that you might know that = Jehovah is God, = and = no one else = beside = Him.

(Isaiah 42:5-6) So says = Jehovah God, = He = who created the heavens = and = stretched them out, = spreading out the earth = and = its offspring; = He = who gives = breath to the people on it = and = spirit = to those who walk in it.
(Isaiah 42:6) I = Jehovah = have called You = in righteousness, = and = will hold = Your hand, = and = will keep You, = and = give You = for a covenant of the people, = for a Light = of the nations;

Simply Put… in these verses and Many Other verses in the Bible… God reveals Himself… through His Word. His chosen People… ‘Israel’… were given… “His Law, Statutes, Precepts and Ordinances”… so that ‘Others’ would and could… know about God. They failed miserably, over and over again and yet God still Loves Them! He will restore Jerusalem and His People… to their place, after He, God… is finished with the Gentiles.

God had a covenant peoples… the Jews, Israel the Nation. In their rejection of the Prophets that came to them, speaking God’s Word… and telling them to repent. They continued to reject God and His Word and God spanked them! Christ Jesus the Son of God was sent… “God in the Flesh”… and they still rejected Him. The good news about God… was then given to the Gentiles to share with the Nations…and… blindness was given… to Israel. Until this time… few Jews have come to Christ. But the Gentiles, have now done the same, as Israel… Rejecting God and His Word… the Bible!

(Luke 21:24) They will = fall by the edge of the sword = and = be carried off as captives = among all the nations, = and = Jerusalem will be trampled on = by the gentiles = until = the times of the gentiles = are fulfilled."

When the “Times of the Gentiles”… is fulfilled… God will once again call all His Covenant Peoples… to Jerusalem and He will reign on the Earth… for One Thousand Years! But not all those that are Jewish… are His People. So it was then… and… so it is today.

(Romans 9:6) Now = it is not as though = the Word of God = has failed. = For = not all = Israelites = truly belong to = Israel,

God even gave His Word… to all gentiles. Many have it, in their hearts… without they knowing it. The Word of God… “Killing = Adultery = Stealing = and = Lying”… are Universal Wrongs! Say it isn’t So…? It is So! The penalties are more severe in other countries than the USA. Still the 10-commandments of God… are Universal… for All peoples.

(Romans 2:14-15) For = whenever gentiles, = who do not possess = the law, = do instinctively = what the law requires, = they are a law to themselves, = even though = they = do not have = the law.
(Rom 2:15) They show = that = what the law requires = is written = in their hearts, = a fact = to which = their own consciences = testify, = and = their thoughts = will either = accuse = or = excuse = them

(Psalms 98:2-3) Jehovah GOD = has made known = His salvation; = His righteousness = He = has unveiled = to the eyes = of the nations [gentiles].
(Psalms 98:3) He = has remembered = His mercy = and = His Truth = toward the house of Israel; = All the ends of the earth = have seen = the salvation of Jehovah.

The Word of God = The Law of God… is known to All Peoples in All Nations. Most have rejected it. They have Made their… ‘Own gods’… in substitution for Jehovah God and His Word. The sacrifice of their children… is just such an example. What people would sacrifice their babies to another god [Small-g]…? Today in the ‘Ganges River in India’, children are sacrificed. Tell me how far society has come? The “WHO”… World Health Organization… could not kill the “Bubonic Plague” infested Rats there… because of… the religion of reincarnation. Many more humans died.

Perhaps allow me… to share about… Islam...? They did not start till about… “Circa 700 AD!” In their chant… “Allah Akbar” = translation = Only Allah is God, and Mohamed is his prophet. We all know about… “Jihad = the holy war to kill = all that are not of Islam!” And the lie goes on and on. Abraham calls Jehovah God… His God. Yet the Arabs do not follow the God of Abraham… but the god of Mohamed… Allah!

Buddha and Krishna and… even Astrology… are simply substitutes for the Real God and His Word the Bible. I could go on and on and list many other foreign religions. But there are still many… “Pseudo Christian Religions”… right here in the USA. The Mormons started by Joseph Smith or The Jehovah Witnesses started by James Russell and still others… have foundations… “Based on Lies! Not... on the Word of God… Alone!

(Galatians 1:8) But even if = we = or = an angel from heaven = should proclaim to you = a gospel = contrary to what = we proclaimed to you, = let that person = be = condemned!
(Gal 1:9) What we have told you = in the past = I am now = telling you = again: = If anyone = proclaims to you = a gospel contrary = to what you received, = let that person = be = condemned!

(Isaiah 8:20) To the Law = and = to the testimony! = If = they = do not = speak = according to = this Word, = it is because = no light = is in them.

(John 12:48-49-50) He who rejects = Me [Jesus] = and = does not receive = My Words = has One = Who judges him; = the Word = that I have spoken, = the same = shall judge him = in the last day.
(John 12:49) For I = have not spoken = of Myself, = but = the Father = Who sent Me = gave Me = a command, = what = I should say, = and =what = I should speak.
(John 12:50) And I know = that His command = is life everlasting. = Therefore = whatever = I speak, = even as the Father = said to Me, = so I speak.

What could be… Plainer…? Simply put… Jesus ‘only’ spoke… what God commanded Him to Speak. The Law of God = The Word of God… is what God will choose to use in… “The Final Judgment”… of All Mankind! Say it doesn’t matter…? Do you really believe that… Anyone… will get away with… Anything…?

If… you're living like… there is ‘No God’. . . . You'd Better… be RIGHT !

(Acts 17:30-31) Though God = has overlooked = those = times of ignorance, = He = now commands = everyone = everywhere = “To Repent”,
(Acts 17:31) for = He = has set = a day = when = He = is going to = judge the world = with justice = through a man = He has appointed, = and = He [God] = has given proof of this = to everyone = by raising Him [Jesus] = from = the dead."

“Duplicity – 101”…Blog.

“Duplicity – 101”…Blog.

Just was is… Duplicity anyway? Aw Shucks… isn’t that some disease that you get from eating ‘raw corn’… because you didn’t cook it first? Or is it that ‘thing’ you get by… sitting too close to someone on the bus? How about if it’s what you get from… watching too much TV and Videos?

This last one… really opens your mind to possibilities and facts of… “Duplicity!”
The Pessimist will… usually view life looking at its ‘worst’ possibilities. Oh I can’t do that, it is too hard. Why should I try, I’ll never be able to finish college and remember I’ll be 89 next Tuesday! Why Tie my shoes when I can buy ones with Velcro Tabs. Or like ‘Chicken Little’… The Sky is Falling! This one will mostly see life through the… ‘Doom & Gloom’… scenarios.

The Optimist will… usually view life looking at its ‘best’ possibilities. “Just Do IT!” How will you even know if you just don’t try… so try anyway. It will all turn out for the best even though it doesn’t see so now. “Keep on Keeping ON” seems to be their life motto. Failure and defeat do not seem to be in their vocabulary.

The Realist will… usually view life… “With real time…‘logic & analysis’… and verify their decision with ‘facts & statics’”. This person is usually ‘not’ heard because their facts terrify the ‘status quo!’ Their decision will usually make people… “Make Believe”… that things are really better than presented, even though ruin and false hopes… will take the situation completely over. Remember the Titanic?

So where does… Duplicity come into this Equation? Can ‘any or all’ of these three personality types subject to Duplicity? But of Course! It simply means… ‘Saying One Thing and Doing Another. Have you ever been stood up with a date? Worse than that, did you ever have a “Blind Date”… and get ‘Fleas’… from her… Seeing Eye Dog? …LOL! [That… was a Joke!]

The term “WYSIWYG”… was popular some years ago. I seldom here it used today. “What You See Is What You Get!”… But that’s not really TRUE! Did you “read and understand”… the ‘Fine Print’… when you signed the mortgage or vehicle loan or credit card application? You were LATE on your Payments… AND your interest rate went to… “28%”!

And… They ‘didn’t even’ warn you that it would! “That is Duplicity!” Simply a “False Representation”…!

We are exposed… To “DUPLICITY” all the time through the Entertainment Medium. Say it isn’t so? Have you ever seen the movie… ‘Gone in 60-Seconds?’ I borrowed the Video from a friend of mine. Don’t you just hate those… Previews that you have to wade through first?

This particular movie… was ‘About A Car Thief!’ Yet on the Video Previews… there was a “Message” from some film organization telling ‘Everyone’ the… “Problem of… PIRATED VIDEOS!” And… How the Film Industry was “Loosing Revenue” from Pirated [copied] Videos. All this… in the Previews of… “A movie about Stealing Cars” That is DUPLICITY!

The Promises of Change… and still the economic markets remain lean. The Promises of Jobs and unemployment is at a 25-year high. The promises of Hope and the Future when the economists have predicted “10-years” of hard times, due to the Foolish Government Bail Outs! This is Duplicity!

http://www.funnyordie.com/videos/cbabb3addc/bailout-rejected-please-help-the-rich-from-fod-team

How can you… believe those that would say ‘One Thing’… and then ‘Do Another?’ Husbands cheat on wives… and Wives cheat on husbands. Duplicity! You made… “Wedding Vows”… before God and Witnesses and “didn’t” keep them… that is Duplicity! Those ‘actions’ have led to a “Pandemic of Divorce!” “Your”… Children will pay ‘The Price’ of your… Duplicity!

Not being “100%... Truthful… is nothing but Duplicity! Will you allow Duplicity with your Pharmacist? How about with your Employer? I know they promised you a raise… but these are hard economic times. Yet the bosses still gets their… ‘Annual Bonus!’ That is Duplicity!

Who or What… then can we Trust? Surely not our… ‘Economic Structure’ of America. How about Financial investments? Ever since there is… “No More Gold Standard”… our finances are just “ones & zeros” in some computer terminal at an “ever changing and soon disappearing” financial institution. What then do you trust in that… is Not Duplicitous?

(Habakkuk 3:17-18) Though the fig tree shall not blossom, and fruit is not on the vines; the labor of the olive fails, and the fields yield no food. The flock is cut off from the fold, and no herd is in the stalls;
(Hab 3:18) yet I will rejoice in Jehovah, I will joy in the God of my salvation.

“The Law of God – 202”…Blog, Part TWO.

“The Law of God – 202”…Blog, Part TWO.

In my starting discussion… of the “Law of God” I found that due to, length constraints, I was not able to do proper justice to my explanation of this topic. It was just to get your and my ‘thinking’ started. I will continue this periodically trying to tie-together the… “Truth of the Word of God”… with other verses in the Bible. Please allow me to share these… “Core Truths”… with you again?

There are about… Over ‘1100’… Old & New Testament… “Laws = Testimonies = Precepts =

Commandments = Judgments = and the like”… Contained in the Word of God. All this is the… “Law of God”… which can be summed up in the Term… “The Word of God!”

You see, “ALL” these… are for us ‘to know’ the… “Mind of God”… so that we may live in the …“Fear of God”…and… “Through and In”… “The Love of God”. The “Love of God” = The “Word of God} will either… Drive You… “To God”… or… ‘Away from God’… depending… “ONLY” on your response to it.

(Hebrews 4:12-13) For the Word of God = is living and powerful = and = sharper than any two-edged sword, = piercing even to = the dividing apart = of soul = and = spirit, = and = of the joints and marrow, = and = is a discerner of = the thoughts = and = intents = of the heart.
(Heb 4:13) Neither = is there any creature = that is not manifest = in His sight, = but = all things are = naked = and = opened = to the eyes of Him [GOD] = with Whom = we have to do.

First allow me to say… that the “Word of God is Living!” It is ‘NOT’… as a novel that a man would write. It is ‘NOT’… some ‘work of fiction’ as some would say, ‘mockingly’. It is Alive… ‘Only’ to those that have been… “Born Again”… by the Holy Spirit of God. Only those that… hunger for Truth… will continue to seek… “God’s Truth and Wisdom”, in its pages. It will drive those who are seeking God… ‘To look for Him’… in “His Word”.

(1Corinthinas 2:12-13-14) Now, = we = have not received = the spirit of the world = but = The Spirit = Who comes from God, = so that we can understand = the things = that were = freely given = to us = by God.
(1Cor 2:13) We don't speak about = these things = in words = taught us by human wisdom, = but = in words = taught by The Spirit [Of GOD], = as we explain = spiritual things = to = spiritual people.
(1Cor 2:14) A person = who isn't spiritual = doesn't accept = the things = of God's Spirit, = for they are = nonsense = to him. = He can't = understand them = because = they are spiritually evaluated.

Before I became… “Born Again” by the Holy Spirit of God… I had Religion. The Bible was of no interest to me. Matter of Fact… it bothered me… that people quoted its verses. My religion was good enough for me, why then did I need the Bible? It was because I was “Spiritually Bind”… and the words of the Bible… were simply foolishness to me… as the above verse says.

(2Corinthains 4:3-to-7) So if = our gospel = is veiled, = it is veiled = to those = who are dying.
(2Cor 4:4) In their case, = the god of this world [Satan] = has blinded = the minds = of those = who do not believe = to keep them from seeing = the light = of the glorious gospel = of Christ, = Who is = the image of God.
(2Cor 4:5) For we = do not = preach ourselves = but = Jesus Christ as Lord, = and = ourselves as merely = your servants = for Jesus' sake.
(2Cor 4:6) For God, = Who said, = "Let light shine out of darkness," = has shined in = our hearts = to give us = the light = of the knowledge = of God's glory = in the face of = Jesus Christ.
(2Cor 4:7) But we have = this treasure [God’s Holy Spirit] = in clay jars [our earthly bodies] = to show that = its extraordinary power = comes from God = and = not from us. [Our human effort]

Those that are really…“Born Again”… do not live by their own power and their own goodness. It is the Holy Spirit of God… living out the Life of God… in our mortal bodies… by His Power! If there is any Truth and Goodness in me… it is Only Christ in me… and… None of my own power. Many do good works to others… to get the glory ‘to themselves and for themselves’. The Glory… is for God working in us… and not… the glory for ourselves. No merit badges for us… as the “Boy Scouts” earn merit badges!

IF the Word of God… is “Not Real”… THEN... Why do so many “Hate”… what it says? You can’t ‘Hate’ a “Pink Elephant’… because in reality, there is… ‘No Such Thing!’ Satan working in the minds and hearts of those that are not… ‘Born Again’… causes You… to Hate the Word of God! Say it isn’t So? Do you Love God…? If you do… Then… you will Love His Word! Your reality is ‘simply demonstrated’… in your actions.

(Romans 10:9-10) If you = declare with your mouth = that Jesus is Lord [Savior], = and = believe = in your heart = that God raised Him [Jesus] = from the dead, = you will = be saved.
(Rom 10:10) For a person = believes = with his heart = and = is justified, = and = a person declares = with his mouth = and = is saved.

Can it really be that Simple…? In order for GOD to be just and righteous He could not make it Complex. If He did, only the Complex… would come to God. The simplicity of the Gospel… is so that All could understand it. Why do we need to know about what God said? Simply because the… “Enemy of our Souls = Satan”… would keep us blinded to… the Goodness of God!

GOD gave us His Word… so that mankind would know how to live. It also tells us what is… “Right” and what is Wrong!” Killing, Adultery, Stealing, and Lying… will affect ‘each and every’ one of us. None of Us… want those things in our lives. They are the “Broken Laws of God” that ruin… “Lives and Life”. Almost “ALL” will agree, ‘Worldwide’… as “NONE” want ‘these’ done to them! That is part of the “Word of God”… the “Law of God!”

(Matthew 5:27-28) "You have heard that it was said, = 'You must Not = commit Adultery.'
(Matt 5:28) But I [Jesus] = say to you, = anyone who stares at a woman = with lust for her = has already = committed Adultery = with her = in his heart.

(Matthew 5:21-22) You have heard that it was said to the ancients, = "You shall not Kill" --and, = "Whoever shall Kill = shall be liable to the judgment."
(Matt 5:22) But I [Jesus] = say to you = that whoever = is Angry with his brother = without a cause = shall be liable to the judgment. = And whoever shall say to his brother, = Raca, shall be liable to the Sanhedrin; = but whoever shall say, = Fool! shall be liable = to be thrown into the fire of hell.

Each of us… has broken the… ‘Law of God’… in our ‘Hearts’. Some have gone on… to do it physically. There are ‘NONE’… that have Kept… the “Law of God”… in their hearts in all of History! We have broken… “The Law of God = The Word of God”… and now… we need a Savior… as we “Cannot save ourselves!”

All of us… ‘Without Exception’… have broken the “Law of God”… the “Word of God!” We daily continue to… “Add to our Sin Account”… those sins we do by ‘Commission’ and those by ‘Omission!’ Like money in the Bank… we each have ‘accounts with growing interest compounded’… before God… Who will judge ‘US’. Where do we go with those accounts? We pay ‘Now’… and we pay… “Eternally!”

(Ecclesiastes 12:13-14) Let ‘US’ hear = the conclusion = of the whole matter. = “Fear God”, = and = Keep, “His Commandments”. = For this is = the whole duty = of man.
(Eccl 12:14) For God = shall bring = every work = into judgment, = with = every secret thing, = whether = it is Good, = or = whether Evil.

Nothing is Hidden from GOD…! Knowing this and understanding that the “Love of God” is given to us… ‘Freely by God’… “What Then”… is keeping “YOU”… from coming to GOD… His for Salvation and Cleansing from… Your… “Sins/Sin”…? God Loves US… and knew that… “No Man or Woman”… could keep the Law of God! Christ Jesus came as Our Savior without cost to us!

“Not, to ‘Decide’… is simply… ‘To Decide’…!”

What more can I say…? God, the God of the Bible knows everything about You! Your heart, your thoughts and your mind. Nothing is hidden from Him! He has offered you… “Salvation” through the ‘Finished Work’ of Christ! When Jesus, on the cross said… “It is Finished”… He Christ… paid for All… Sins/Sin… Only for those… that would come to Him… on His Terms! One cannot be good enough in themselves… “To please the Righteous requirements of the Law of God!”

Where do you GO… from here ,after reading this? Simply speak to God on your own, tell Him that you have Broken… “His Law and His Word!” Tell Him… that you are Trusting Him… that “Christ Jesus”… paid for Your “Sin’s/Sin”. Confess to Him… that there is… ‘No goodness’… in you and that You believe that HE… God… Raised Jesus from the Dead… to pay for… “Your Sins/Sin!”

He already knows… ‘ALL’… about your ‘heart’ and ‘your life’. He has offered to ‘You’… “His gift of Salvation in Christ Jesus!” Simply tell Him… what is in your heart and ask Him to be your God!

(Luke 18:13-14) "But = the tax collector = stood at a distance = and = would not even look up to heaven. = Instead, = he continued to beat his chest = and said, = 'O God, = be merciful to me, = the sinner that I am!' [That we ALL are]
(Luke 18:14) I [Jesus] = tell you, = this man, = rather than the other, = went down to his home = justified. = For everyone who exalts himself [Before GOD] = will be humbled [By GOD], = but = the person = who humbles himself [Before GOD] = will be exalted [By GOD]."

For more… please feel free to email me.

“GUNS – 101”…Blog.

“GUNS – 101”…Blog.

Today… as I was surfing the Internet I came across a blog with a picture of ‘A Gun.’ I could not help myself, so I went and read the comments to find out the… ‘Temperature of Reasoning.’ Most responses were negative, and portrayed a ‘fear & terror’… about owning one!

“You can discover what your enemy fears most by observing the means he uses to frighten you”. Eric Hoffer (1902 - 1983)

Get ready… as I own… “2-44 Magnum pistols, a 22-semi pistol, a .223 ‘sniper rifle’ with scope, and pellet gun pistol”. Perhaps now is the time to ask you the question. “Are we… as a nation in financial distress… ‘more likely’… to be attacked or… ‘less likely’… to be attacked by a Criminal?” Please answer …‘out loud’… so you may hear what you are saying.

News reports… of home invasion, robberies, personal attacks and the like… “Are ‘NOT’ All reported by the your… News Stations!” Only a few… make it into the news. In a state… where there are ‘carry laws’… the crime statics are lower, ‘Because… the Criminals ‘KNOW’ that the public is… well armed!’

In countries… like the "United Kingdom", where guns are ‘outlawed’ for the public, there are STILL robberies and GUNS are still being used the commission of Crimes! Imagine that… even though the ‘Guns Are Outlawed’… the Criminals still have them! Criminals will Always have Guns. How then can the average citizen… protect themselves. “With rocks & stones…?” …LOL!

‘GUNS’… Don’t Kill People… “People Kill People!” Ok, so over ‘500-people’ in a major metropolitan Area… were killed by guns… in one year! Perhaps… A True Perspective on Deaths? Over 40,000-people are killed on America’s Highways each year and… ‘Hundreds of Thousands’ will sustain “Lifetime Injuries”… that they will ‘Not’ Recover From! Did the CARS… Kill the People… Or Did… The Drivers?

I am licensed… by the State of Florida to carry a firearm. Most of us, who are “Veterans” have ‘No Fear’… of firearms, for we are well trained. Even though my enlistment was only 4-years, I have carried that training for my Lifetime. In addition I train at my local range, several times a year. I also receive… ‘certified training’… by a ‘licensed instructor’… for my state license.

Should you… go out and purchase a ‘sidearm’ today? I think… Not! You should do your research, on the internet. Go to your local gun shop, speak with the owner. Go to a gun show in your local area. They have them, several times a year, in most major metropolitan areas. Speak with someone… that owns a sidearm. Only then will you be qualified to make that decision out of ‘Logic’… and… “Not out of Fear!”

Well you may say... I have one of those ‘spray cans of mace’ on my key ring. That’s all the protection I need! May I ask you, “Have you had someone… spray you… with that Mace?” ‘Silly you’… you may respond, why would I do that? Just how effective do you think that spray mace really is? Are you expecting it to Stop… ‘An enraged adult who intends to do you harm’? IF you do not know… ‘How Effective’ it is… what happens when you need it?

You’re Scaring ME… may be the next words out of your mouth. NO… I am not trying to do that! I am simply allowing you… “Evaluate Your Safety Status!” Perhaps if you ‘do not’ want to learn to handle a fire arm… how about… ‘Martial Arts?’ No time? Do you live in a ‘gated’ community? Do you have ‘an alarm system’ for your residence? Does your ‘insurance policy’ cover… attack by a criminal? These are all valid questions, that Maybe… No One has Asked You…?

The real question is… “Should I purchase a firearm and learn to defend myself”. I never have needed one before. Why should I purchase one now? That is your choice… but it must be done based on “True Information” and not on an emotion of “Fear!” Police statistics show that in a combat situation, only one of five bullets fired hit the target. These Police officers train every quarter.

Are there ‘other options...?’ There are always ‘other options’. I personally prefer to be “Armed!” The current ‘Obama’ administration is trying to curtail the average citizen from their Constitutional Rights to own… “Firearms!” A few years ago, “Australia” did the same thing, even with Antique Firearms. Their “Crime Rate” went up ‘400%’ the first year.

The decision to “Own and Use”… a ‘firearm’ should be made by you and only you. If you have a family, consider training ‘the children also’. When one has a “First-hand knowledge of Firearms and Gun Safety”… and trains regularly, they can then, have respect for Firearms. Hollywood has given firearms a ‘bad name and image’. Fear and Fear Alone… keeps most from owning and correctly using firearms! “To be ‘For Armed’… is to be ‘For Warned’!”

(James 1:5-6-7) Now if any of you lacks wisdom, he should ask God, Who gives to everyone generously without a rebuke, and it will be given to him.
(Jas 1:6) But he must ask in faith, without any doubts, for the one who has doubts is like a wave of the sea that is driven and tossed by the wind.
(Jas 1:7) Such a person should not expect to receive anything from the Lord.
