America's Lukewarm Death

SAMECH: I hate the halfhearted; but I love Your Torah.
(Psalms 119:113) HRB NOTE: (1704) Neutrality is of the devil, Yahweh's way is a clear path of right and wrong and the true believer should always take a stand against evil based on the word of the Torah.
What did Yahshua say about the lukewarm? (Revelation 3:16)
For all the things some Americans ding Russia for it is one of the few nations left on Earth that is anti-homosexual and not Muslim. Most of the non-Muslim nations that support Christianity and not homosexuality are in Africa. They all come far closer to deserving a blessing from YHWH than the pro-homosexual, pro-Muslim, anti-Christian, US of A.
I searched for a place where an English speaking person could fit in, and live in, a land undefiled by the abomination of state supported homosexuality; and, the only one that initially looked even remotely plausible is not even recognized as an independent nation - the Cook Islands off of New Zealand! Sadly, it is almost impossible for a foreigner to move there.
If anyone needs a sign that the end times are at hand the above facts should serve as a heads up! There is, for all practical purposes, no undefiled place left on Earth to safely live as a follower of Yahshua. The few African nations that stand against Islam and homosexuality are under fierce attack - physically by the Muslims and economically and politically by . . . THE US of A! (See Note 1)
The US of A, once part of the “New World”, once provided a home for those suffering under religious persecution; but, now it participates wholeheartedly against YHWH. The US of A is becoming a fairy tale - “Once upon a time, . . .” - that has turned into a nightmare. The US not only openly flaunts it's rejection of YHWH it is using it's power, often successfully, to coerce other nations too reject Him as well. The US is acting as if it is becoming what Islamic terrorists label it - the Great Satan.
Muslims are slaughtering each other around the globe - shia vs sunni; but, both shia and sunni Muslims are slaughtering Christains around the globe. What does the US do? It brings thousands upon thosands of Muslims to the safety of the US while rejecting over 99% of asylum applications from Christians! Calling the US lukewarm these days would be to give it credit it no longer deserves.
There is no “New World” left for believers to seek shelter from persecution. But, there will be . . . and it may come sooner than some think.

The One testifying these things says, Yes, I am coming quickly. Amen. Yes, come, Master Yahshua!
(Revelation 22:20)



Prudence is the knowledge of what is good, what is bad, and what is neutral. Its parts are memory, intelligence, and foresight (memoria, intelligentia, providentia).Memory is how the mind recalls what has been; intelligence is how it ascertains what is; foresight is that by which something is seen before it has occurred. - Cicero, De inventione

NOTE 1 - Our Constitutional Republic was formed by States that were sovereign, voluntarily members. Prior to the Civil War the nation was known as “these United States of America”. Afterward, it became “the United States” as States suffered a massive loss of Constitutional rights to the Federal Government. Since that time the Federal Government has waged a relentless and highly successful war against all the Constitutional Rights of the States. So successful in fact that the Federal Government has since turned it's attention to and against the Constitutional Rights of the people of “the United States”. Here too the Federal Government is proving to be relentless and successful. Unless people take major action, and soon, the phrase “the United States” will, like “these United States”, become a term for the history books.

PS - Long ago I proudly, voluntarily, served 12 years in the Armed Forces of the US (6 Navy & 6 Army); yet, today I am no longer proud to be an “American” nor would I insult my Creator by asking Him to bless such an evil nation.

Off the Cuff: Near the beginning Cain slew Able . . . near the end Kaine slew America. (No way Hellary lasts four years with her health.)

Basics - Lost & Found?


Verse of the Week
Here is the patience of the saints; here are the ones keeping the commandments of YAHWEH,
and the faith of Yahshua.
(Revelation 14:12) (HRB NOTE: It is quite clear that at this time the true believers in Yahshua are keeping the Torah in faith and obedience to the one who wrote it, (Revelation 19:13, John 1:1-3; John 1:14).
Thought for the Week
It seems ironic to me that as many humans, especially in the US, tout themselves as being so highly advanced they seem to have lost sight of the basics. Morals are disappearing faster than clean water. High school graduates can hardly read, write, do math, or use reason because teachers are too busy pushing Islam and homosexuality (which is banned in Islam). I would say that freedom is fast becoming a myth from the history books but modern history books already teach more about slavery than they do about freedom anyway. And then there are the folks that claim to be “Christian” - some of who do not even believe YHWH exists or refuse to called Him by name!
Have you ever wished you could learn and study the Gospel as taught by Yahshua to his disciples untainted by the corrupt influences of man and time? You can if you are brave enough to face the scorn of those around you. How you may ask? Well, start by realizing that Yahshua would never have taught anything that runs counter to what YHWH says. Then continue by flushing any and all doctrines that were not explicitly taught by Yahshua and hold dear all those that are explicitly taught by him; and, also listen to who he told you to – YHWH's Spirit!
Did YHWH ever say He was a part of a trinity? NO! Did Yahshua ever say he was a part of a Trinity? NO! So right off the bat you should reject the false doctrine of man called the trinity and worship YHWH just as He says to – only Him, as one! Even Yahshua called YHWH “his God”!
Did YHWH command observance of the seventh day Sabbath? YES! Did Yahshua keep and observe the seventh day Sabbath? YES! So right off the bat you know that you must keep and observe the seventh day Sabbath – the seventh day, NOT SUNDAY! Consider the following from the Hebraic Roots Bible:
And returning, they prepared spices and perfume. And indeed they rested on the Sabbath,
according to the commandment.
(Luke 23:56) (HRB Note: Another clear proof that the Sabbath commandment was still binding after the death of Yahshua. One must remember that this good news message was written by Luke some 30 years after the crucifixion and if the Sabbath was no longer binding it would make no sense to make such a strong statement in support of it.)
And in the coming Sabbath, almost all the city was gathered to hear the word of God.
(Acts 13:44) (HRB Note: All early believers kept the 7th day Sabbath (Saturday). Sunday worship did not come about until it was instituted by the Roman Bishop Sixtus in around 116 A.D.)
Did YHWH command to obey His instructions - His Torah, His Law, His TEN COMMANDMENTS? YES! Did Yahshua observe and teach YHWH's Law? YES! So right off the bat you know that YHWH's Law must be obeyed! READ the details - YHWH says some laws are directly His and some were given through/from Moses.
It is way past time for folks to take a step back from technology and “progress” and return to the core fundamentals of YHWH and freedom.

Quote of the Week
It is time to return to core values, time to get back to basics, to self-discipline and respect for the law, to consideration for the others, to accepting responsibility for yourself and your family - and not shuffling it off on other people and the state. – John Major
Comment: Almost half of the single people under the age of 35 in the US are still living with their parents. That would be great if it were out of love and honor instead of a failure to learn individual responsibilty. The “system” is raising a generation of adult-aged-infants to suckle on the Nanny State.

Did You Know
Many States threatened to cede from the Union long before the War of Northern Aggression (aka the Civil War). John C. Calhoun, vice president under President Jackson, wrote an essay titled "The South Carolina Exposition and Protest" and later became the first US vice-president to resign. In response Jackson wrote, "the tariff was only a pretext, and disunion and southern confederacy the real object. The next pretext will be the negro, or slavery question." This was in 1833! Comment: Yet ignorant liberals have long screamed that the “Civil War” was only about slavery and not State's Rights. Calhoun, even as Vice President of the US, saw the tyranny coming! FYI – The Left needs to realize that if the War was only about slavery then more US white men died for black freedom in one day than all the US black men have from racism for the over the last hundfed and fifty years!
The AFA President, Tim Wildmon, recently said, “We want to make it very clear that AFA does not believe the transgender community poses this danger to the wider public.” COMMENT: It turns out even the AFA are back pedaling cowards when it comes to standing up for YHWH.
2015 NAEP (aka the Nation’s Report Card): Only 37% of U.S. high school seniors are prepared for college-level coursework in mathematics and in reading. COMMENT: Ignorance brought to your children courtesy of the Left's focus on Common Core and an anti-Christian, pro-Muslim agenda.
Saul of Tarsus, aka Paul, never quoted Yahshua but he quoted several pagans. The first, Epimenides, was a 6th-century BC philosopher and religious prophet who believed that Zeus was immortal and called the Cretans liars because they did not:
They fashioned a tomb for thee, O holy and high one
The Cretans, always liars, evil beasts, idle bellies!
But thou art not dead: thou livest and abidest forever,
For in thee we live and move and have our being. — Epimenides, Cretica
Paul quotes and agrees with this pagan's assessment of Cretans (Titus 1:12/13). Some also believe Epimenides is cited by Paul in Acts 17:28 (compare the verse with the last line of the poem above) along with quoting the last line of Phaenomena, a poem by another pagan Zeus worshiper named Aratus (circa 240 - 315 BC). Paul also quotes the pagan Menander's (circa 342/41 – c. 290 BC) work Thaïs, in 1 Corinthians 15:33. Comment: Paul was a Roman by birth and was not Jewish - no surprise that he was well versed in pagan ways (even declaring it lawful to eat meat sacrificed to pagan gods).

The Meat of the Matter


VERSE

And I saw, and behold, the Lamb standing on Mount Zion! And with Him were

a hundred and forty four thousands, with the name of His Father having been

written in their foreheads.

(Revelation 14:1) (HRB NOTE: (2818) To have something written on the forehead shows that it is forever in their mind (Deuteronomy 6:8). Whereas with the mark of the beast in the right hand (right signifies strength and action) and the forehead (where our thoughts originate) is giving allegiance to the anti-messiah, the true believers have the name of YAHWEH inevitably written in their minds and have surrendered their wills to Him and are fully servants of Yahshua. Psalms 2:6, John 17:11



THOUGHT FOR THE WEEK

The last few weeks I have dwelled on the issue of the seemingly overwhelming availability of data on how to properly worship YHWH. Along that same track let us look at why it can seem so confusing at times and how so many may get led astray. Let us for example examine the issue of diet.

Some folks will tell you that the law is done away with so all foods are okay. Is this true?

First is the issue of “is the law done away with”. Who do they cite as the authority? YHWH or Yahshua? NO! They cite Saul of Tarsus aka the (false) Apostle Paul. A 13th Apostle? Well that is a separate issue, but, either way no one has the authority to supersede YHWH and He never said His Law is done away with. Yahshua specifically said he did not come to destroy the law but to fulfill it. So that claim loses all authority.

Some claim all food is okay and cite what Yahshua said in Matthew 15 & Mark 7. They would do well to continue reading the entire chapter in Matthew. At his disciples request he explained his comments. In Matthew 15:20 he specifies that he was addressing unwashed hands, which was an oral tradition added by the Pharisees, and not a command from YHWH. The subject and context of the entire chapter never dealt with what foods to eat. A matter of interpretation you say? Yahshua never violated the dietary laws of YHWH and Yahshua specifically spoke against eating meat sacrificed to idols (Revelation 2:14 & 20). Do you believe Yahshua contradicted himself? Be careful my friends!

Some claim that dietary laws apply only to Jews? Is this true? Well, first off the Law Moses gave to the nation of Israel applied to all 12 tribes of Israel and not just the tribe of Judah. So that claim is false from the start. Second, we must consider if, like the Ten Commandments, dietary restrictions existed before the time of Moses.

Did YHWH ever institute any dietary restrictions before the time of Moses? Yes, Adam and Eve had a dietary restriction. They ate a vegetarian diet (ref: Genesis 1:29). Animal flesh was not allowed until after the flood when YHWH told Noah it was okay to eat animals (Genesis 9:3). BUT, YHWH added the restriction against eating any animal blood (Genesis 9:4). Note also that the concept of clean and unclean were already known to Noah (Genesis 7:2 and 8:20). This concept expressly applied to how many of each animal Noah loaded on the ark and which animal he offered as sacrifice to YHWH. Did it also apply to which animal could be eaten?

Third, the concept of the Noahide Laws is based on the fact that YHWH's revealed commands to Noah apply to all mankind and not just the nation of Israel. That means not eating animal blood or even animal meat until the blood has been drained from it (again Genesis 9:4). This is reflected even in the New Testament by the Council of Jerusalem where it was decided that Gentiles must refrain from meat offered to idols, from meat from a strangled animal, and from blood (Acts 15:20 & 29, Acts 21:25). This restriction was applied directly to New Testament Gentile believers in this era! Add it all up and there is no way one can say that dietary restrictions apply only to the Jews!

Some folks claim all the dietary restrictions apply to everybody citing such verses as Exodus 12:49: One law shall be to the native, and to the visitor, the one staying in your midst”. That verse specifies those living or visiting with Israelites so if you are doing so that is true. But neither this verse nor the surrounding verses say it applies to those outside the community of Israelites.

So do all restrictions apply today? Only some of them? None of them? What conclusions can be made? Well, we are not done yet. What is the purpose of following dietary laws anyway? Consider what YHWH said after articulating the dietary laws to Israel:

For I am YAHWEH your Elohim, and you have sanctified yourselves, and you have become holy, for I am holy. And you shall not defile your persons with any swarming thing which creeps on the earth;

(Leviticus 11:44)

(HRB NOTE: The Hebrew word here 'Kadosh' means to be set apart. True covenant believers are to be set apart from the world not imitating their ways. To eat unclean food would be a defilement and outright act of rebellion.

That verse was certainly spoken to, and meant for, the nation of Israel - YHWH's chosen people. But are not the Gentile believers who worship YHWH and follow Yahshua grafted into the family to become one of YHWH's chosen people? Are not we also commanded to be holy?

as children of obedience, not fashioning yourselves to your former lusts in your ignorance, but according to the Holy One who has called you, you also become holy in all conduct; Because it has been written, "Be holy, because I am holy."

(1 Peter 1:14-16)

But you are an elect race, a royal priesthood; a holy people, and a people for possession; that you should proclaim the praises of him who called you out of darkness to His precious light:

(1 Peter 2:9)

(HRB NOTE: The intention of YHWH when He took Israel out of Egypt was to make a nation of priests (Exodus 19:5-6). This did not happen due to the continual rebellion of the people, so in the New Covenant clearly the intention, as it originally was, is to make a kingdom of priests according to the order of Melchizedek (Hebrews 3:1; 7:11)

So what conclusions can be made? Is Yahshua your example? Did he not say “follow me”? Does YHWH consider certain foods as unclean for those who would be His People, His Priests? Are you going to be one of His People, His Priests?

A related issue is that if one chooses to try to observe YHWH's dietary instructions is to ensure you do not burden yourself with man made additions as many groups do (e.g. Jewish oral traditions, modern groups that ban alcohol too, etc). Study and pray. Pray and study. The choice is yours.

And if it seems evil in your eyes to serve YAHWEH, choose for yourselves today whom you will serve, whether the gods whom your fathers served beyond the river, or the gods of the Amorites in whose land you are living. But as for me and my house, we will serve YAHWEH.

(Joshua 24:15)

PS - It was only recently that I was led to study this particular issue. I spent most of my youth as a country boy in the Deep South of the USA where about the only part of a hog not eaten was the oink. I have never followed a kosher diet yet I am setting out to learn how best to do so; and, with all the man made interference out there that will take much study and may take me awhile. Just another of my steps on The Path to Light - no shortcuts and no hitchhiking.

Learn or Burn?


Verse of the Week

And why do you call Me Lord, Lord, and do not do what I say?

(Luke 6:46)



Thought for the Week

Last week I discussed how easy it is to get information – both on false teachings as well as on what YHWH expects of us. It is typically very easy to discern the difference. Yahshua told us quite clearly, Not everyone who says to Me, Lord, Lord, will enter into the kingdom of Heaven, but the ones who do the will of My Father in Heaven. (Matthew 7:21) If you do what YHWH said to do you are acting on the instruction of highest authority possible. The question that remains is what do to if you are unsure.

The best advice I can give is to pray and to seek the guidance of YHWH's Holy Spirit. However, unless you are already on the right track your prayers may be ignored since we are told, Whoever turns aside his ear from hearing the Torah, even his prayer is an abomination”. (Proverbs 28:9). Next best read YHWH's Word with an open heart and open mind and get the obvious basics right.

So what are the obvious basics? Even those who consider themselves “well versed” in the Bible could benefit from the what I suggest you do to discover that – Go through the New Testament and read only what Yahshua actually said. That action alone will teach the “obvious basics”. Next study the basics in general – Go through the Bible and read the context of why Yahshua said what he did and then research every verse Yahshua referenced in the Original (old) Testament ensuring you get the context of the referenced material. ALWAYS remember that you are doing this to learn about what YHWH wants!

To go deeper go through the Original Testament and read only what YHWH said. Now expand that to read the context of why He said what He did. If you do all this AND follow what you have learned then I have no doubt the Holy Spirit will guide you in all things.

Please note that the Original Testament was the only Scripture Yahshua had, it was the only Scripture the Apostles had, it was the only Scripture the first generations of believers had. You do not have to have more than the Original Scriptures and the words of YHWH's Anointed Yahshua to properly worship YHWH.

Yes there is more written in the Bible. If you seek more then you might find that the words of one of Yahshua's 12 Apostles can be beneficial (Matthew, John, Peter, Jude) whether you read them from the New Testament or, for example, from the Didache. The writings of James, Yahshua's brother and the head of the first “church”, may also help you. Although the author is unknown the writings known as the Book of Hebrews may also be of assistance.

Can doubt still remain as to what is best to do? Yes. Learning is a process and it should never stop – just as we should never stop striving to achieve the perfection YHWH wants for us. If you are wondering if something is applicable to you than ask yourself a simple question, “If in doubt it is it better to obey or disobey until clarity is achieved?” BEWARE the teachings of men! What does YHWH say?! What does Yahshua say?!

Never forget the object is to properly worship YHWH and to live the way YHWH wants you to live. YHWH gave us freewill to chose to worship Him or not; BUT, He did not give us the freedom to choose how we worship Him (i.e. What to call Him - His name is not God! YHWH's Sabbath is the seventh day, not Sunday!). YHWH gave us freewill to chose how we will live our lives; BUT, He did not give us the freedom to choose what is right or wrong.

Study and pray, pray and study. And, above all, do it all to honor YHWH – the way He says to honor Him!

Why say Yahshua and not Jesus? The Messiah's name was not Jesus. First, he was a Hebrew with a Hebrew name and Yahshua was his Hebrew name. The name Jesus is a combination of the Latin and Greek IESOUS. He was not a Greek with a Greek name or a Latin with a Latin name. Second, the letter “J” did not exist until almost 1500 years after Yahshua died so even the Greek name would be incorrect!

Modern Malaise


Verse of the Week

And by this we know that we have known Him, if we keep His commandments. The one saying, I have known Him, and not keeping His commandments is a liar, and the truth is not in that one. But whoever keeps His Word, truly in this one the love of YAHWEH has been perfected. By this we know that we are in Him.

(1 John 2:3-5)

Thought for the Week

Living in this modern age is, in many ways, both a blessing and a curse. Technology can make life easier in many ways; but, the benefits are usually thought of only in the sense of physical ease. The ability to rapidly and easily study issues within the spiritual realm though is astounding even if discerning the data is sometimes daunting. What few folks consider is that when they face their Creator on Judgment Day they will not be able to attribute any ignorance to the failings of earthly leaders. The information is out there if only one cares enough to look.

Yahshua told us the that YHWH's Holy Spirit would teach us (John 14:26). That said the conduits the Spirit uses to convey knowledge may be internal, external or both. There are numerous examples of how YHWH has used men to convey His Word to us. But, in this day and age we are no longer restricted to the individualized personal views of another human being. In the age before computers access to knowledge was more limited and before that access via books was even more limited (by time or literacy if not data). For most of mankind, and certainly for those reading these words, these limitations do not exist today. As such, we are especially, each, individually, alone, solely, responsible for our own beliefs and the way we lead our lives.

Earthly leaders will be held accountable for failing to properly lead others yet that does nothing to erase the damage done to those led astray by false teachings; and, individual failure to learn will not protect one if it is due to willful ignorance. By way of analogy. If you are driving a car you know you are responsible for knowing the rules of the road and are expected to obey traffic signs and signals. If you approach an intersection and willfully ignore the traffic signs and signals you may be alright if it was a green-light; but, if it was a red-light or a stop sign you are in the wrong! By the same token even a rudimentary knowledge of YHWH's Word exposes one to the knowledge that they are personally responsible for learning and obeying His rules of life. Willfully ignoring His signals and signs means you are in the wrong - no matter what advice or instruction was given to you by another person. A police officer cannot legally authorize you to drive 100 mph through a school zone crosswalk with children in it! A “church leader” cannot legally authorize you to do anything against YHWH!

Ignorance of His Way may sometimes be forgiven (e.g. Numbers 15:26), but, ignorance from neglecting to learn better when you have been exposed to proper teaching is a different matter. Have you ever heard that the trinity doctrine is a lie? If you still worship “Jesus as God” you are responsible for it! Have you ever heard that the Sabbath is Saturday and not Sunday? If you still observe Sunday and not Saturday as His Sabbath then you are responsible for it. Have you ever heard that YHWH's Law was not done away with? If you still think His Law is not applicable to you then you are responsible for it. The list could go on . . . do you worship YHWH personally or “God”? Do you observe YHWH's Feasts or those of man (e.g. easter, christmas, etc)? Do you follow the teachings of Yahshua or an alleged 13th Apostle (Saul aka Paul)? The Noahide laws? Tithing? Etc, etc. . .

My point here is not to prove a particular viewpoint; rather the point is that no matter which “viewpoint” you hold (or lack) you are responsible for it - not so called church leaders. You are not a mushroom being kept in the dark and fed manure. You have a choice. You have the ability to learn the Truth. YHWH's TRUTH! As I said earlier, living in this modern age is, in many ways, both a blessing and a curse. A blessing that so much learning is so readily available and a curse that so much of it is and always has been false teaching. Either way the “age of ignorance” is largely past. As predicted in Daniel 12:4, Many shall travel back and forth, and knowledge shall be increased”.

Yahshua told us that he will tell many who thought they served him to go away because he never knew them.

Many will say to Me in that day, Master, Master, did we not prophesy in Your name,

and in Your name cast out demons, and in Your name do many works of power?

And then I will declare to them, from everlasting, I never knew you;

"depart from Me, those working lawlessness!"

(Matthew 7:22-23)

Trying to tell him you are sorry but you were just doing what everybody else did, just what your “preacher” told you to do, will not cut it! Yahshua said, “Many are called but few chosen”(Matthew 20:16 & 22:14). Few will follow the way of Yahshua instead of taking the “easy” way out and following the herd. Following the herd is indeed an “easy” way out - a way out of future fellowship with Yahshua and YHWH!

If the person you have as a “church leader” is not leading you correctly then you need to get a different leader! Get rid of them or move! It is your choice! It is your soul at risk!

Gray Areas Increasing


Verse of the Week

Set your way of life without money-loving, being satisfied with present things;

for He has said, "Not at all will I leave you, not at all will I forsake you," never!

(Hebrews 13:5)



Thought for the Week

Last week the Thought for the Week dealt with companies that support issues against YHWH. Since this currently seems to be one of Satan's favorite methodologies I will continue here even though I will still primarily limit this to just three issues - which addresses the majority of companies and practically every government in the world today. Those three issues are: 1) do they support homosexuality, 2) do they support abortion, and 3) do they support Islam. The previous article was too short to address some of the issues that we all face in this regard. My research has shown, for example, that Starbucks is pro homosexual which is against YHWH yet it is also pro Israel which is, in essence, “pro YHWH”. Such cases may present some with a dilemma. For myself this particular case is resolved rather easily. I do not support Starbucks for two simple reasons:1) it's business practices are questionable at best, and 2) I will not abuse the blessings YHWH gives me by squandering $5 for a quarter worth of coffee.

Regretfully many such dilemmas are often not so easily dealt with. Try finding a tech company that does not support issues against YHWH. I try to use open source material if at all possible so at least I am not providing monetary support to aid the enemy – e.g Duck Duck Go not Google, Firefox not IE, Thunderbird for email, etc. Try finding an auto manufacturer, or grocery chain, or internet retailer, etc that does not support issues against YHWH. Though not impossible it is often a matter of degree.

Sometimes the item at issue is less critical to modern life but none the less presents a cause for pause for thought. Try finding a soft drink company that does not support issues against YHWH? The old “Pepsi challenge” is a perfect example of the methodology of Satan's tricks. The choices offered are Coke or Pepsi – both companies support issues against YHWH!

The list could go on ad naseum. This problem has gotten so bad that I challenge you to even find a country whose Government does not support issues against YHWH. A state. A county. A city. A public school.

Between corporate profits and Government spending being primarily focused toward furthering Satan's agendas is it any surprise Satan is winning the battle for the US? For Europe? The World?

For most folks today they have to have money to live; but, few today look closely at who profits from their labor. Are your labors going to obtain needs or wants? Spend your money and your time wisely brother and sisters. The time is drawing ever nearer to when those who worship YHWH will no longer be free to decide how they spend either. Our children are being brainwashed against YHWH, and against individual freedom and individual responsibility. Worship of YHWH has already been banned from the classroom and workplace. It is being forced out of the media and the marketplace. Worship of YHWH, like the US Constitution, is also being forced out of the alleged “Judicial” system! The US criminal justice system is more criminal than just!

We know YHWH will be there for us. Will you be there for Him? Are you prepared to face persecution? Physically? Spiritually?

Anti-free speech Nazi's continue to get caught falsifying climate data! COMMENT: Other planets in our solar system appear to be getting warmer too – even National Geographic reported on this years ago. See also: http://www.numberwatch.co.uk/warmlist.htm – a list of things that have been touted as being “caused” by global warming. FYI -

It is not just free speech under attack in the USA. Do not count on a fair trial either: It recently came to light that yet another person was jailed with no trial (7 months and counting) - for not giving up a password! COMMENT: I guess he could not afford the lawyers that Apple has! Justice may be blind but it is not cheap!

Worse the Government is sanctioning imprisonment for failure to commit a crime when ordered to do so by a court! COMMENT: Sadly this is not the first time the courts have ruled their power is more important than the US Constitution!

How serious is the Left about eradicating YHWH and Constitutional rights in the US? Even members of minority groups they claim to represent are not safe. They attacked an individual that was both Black (who they would normally claim to protect as a victim of “white privilege”) and female (who they would normally claim to protect as a victim of the “war on women”).

As if it is not bad enough that NSA is recording everything email, text, and phone call, Big Brother is even monitoring us from power line poles in ways they refuse to reveal even when caught. COMMENT: And “private companies” are hand in glove with them – from the highest tech (e.g. Google) to supposedly old fashioned low tech - Billboards!

The US is doping children into oblivion – one third of ADHD diagnosis' are for kids under 6 years old; and, 75% are put on drugs. Even the CDC finally sees it as a problem. COMMENT: Could it be because diagnosis is based on “expert” opinion since there are no medical tests that indicate ADHD; and, it is often “cured” after a little over a half dozen visits to a shrink - by the parents! PS - The same “expert opinions” that have now made medial errors the third leading cause of death in the US. FYI - White children are far more likely to be diagnosed and drugged than any other race. Are white children more perceptive and as such do they have to be sedated to force them to quietly accept the fact they are being indoctrinated with propaganda instead of being given an education?

Good vs Greed or Wants vs Needs


Verse of the Week

Better is a little with righteousness than great increase without justice.

(Proverbs 16:8)



Thought for the Week

There is an old adage that challenges one to demonstrate they hold a certain principle by stating, “Put your money where your mouth is”. Too many Americans, and especially too many “Christians”, continue to support companies that despise YHWH and the morals that made the US known as “the land of the free and the home of the brave”.

Many of these companies, though major participants in the US, are not even US companies or have begun shifting focus away from the US. For example, PayPal's new Global Headquarters is in Malaysia not the US.

Many of the major US based companies have gone so far Left it is a good thing the world is round or they would have fallen off already. For example, Disney was once considered a bastion of wholesome entertainment for the traditional American family. Now Disney seems to operate with two main goals: hire only homosexuals or immigrants and promote this agenda worldwide! Disney is forcing American employees to train the very people who are to replace them. Employees refusing to go along with the plan lose not only their job but any severance package as well!

We are told, “For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also” (e.g. Matthew 6:21 & Luke 12:34). Are your hard earned dollars supporting companies that are against YHWH? Against the morals that made America a great nation?

Any company that supports the homosexual agenda is against YHWH (ref: Leviticus 18:22, 20:13, etc). Any company that supports abortion is against YHWH (ref: Didache chapter 2) Any company that supports Islam is against YHWH and the very principles of freedom that built America – Sharia law is not compatible with the US Constitution!

For all the complaining the Left does about capitalism it has had no problem at all with coercing companies to do their bidding. The Left likes to associate capitalism with “white” greed yet if you try to debate with them they scream like a two year old throwing a tantrum. Perhaps as “democrats” they would do well to recall the words of Democritus, “It is greed to do all the talking but not to want to listen at all”. Hate has always been a barrier to communication and the Left's hatred for YHWH, and for individual freedom devoid of “group think”, dooms most attempts at conflict resolution.

In the past power for a business was often determined by market share. Though market share still matters today, we find that businesses are so intertwined with politics that, as the line between business and government diminishes and blurs, the power of both grows. Google, et al collects internet data for the Government, Microsoft collects e-mails for the Government, Verizon collects phone calls for the Government, Facebook collects personal individual data for the Government, etc. But, it is not just tech companies: even the Target Department Store company has two forensic labs that work for the Government, license plate reader companies offer their services to police departments for a cut of the take from fines, etc. The list is huge and growing!

As another old adage states, “Follow the money”. The Left has been doing more than screaming the loudest they have been putting their money to work for several collective agendas: At the core of which is the ultimate goal of uniting Government and all businesses (not just “Big Business”). Control both and you control the population! That is why they attack even seemingly inconsequentially small “Mom & Pop” bakers and photographers. No rock is too small to be overturned.

Use the power of YHWH's Word to impact and combat the evil of others. Use the power of YHWH's Word, and your wallet, to impact and combat evil companies. Support neither the evil company nor the company of evil.



QUOTE

Wealth consists not in having great possessions, but in having few wants. – Epicurus

It is not the man who has little, but he who desires more, that is poor. – Seneca

COMMENT: I could not decide which quote was more appropriate so I offered both. To which I add my own: Covet not Satan and his possessions, for he has forfeited his greatest – his soul.

STOP the Islamification of the US while we still can!

Of the 1,366 Syrians already admitted this fiscal year, 99.2 percent are Muslims and only 0.6 percent are Christians.

In the largest terrorism financing trial in US history, U.S. v. Holy Land Foundation et al. A document entitled "The Explanatory Memorandum on the General Strategic Goal of the Group in North America," was examined. It was written in 1991 by a top Muslim Brotherhood operative, Mohamed Akram. Intended as an internal correspondence that was meant for the eyes only of the organization's leadership in Egypt the document is direct and to the point: It explicitly states that the mission of the Muslim Brotherhood in North America is "destroying Western civilization from within ... by [the infidels'] hands and the hands of the believers so that Allah's religion is made victorious over all other religions." It also details that until such time as they are strong enough to use violence decisively, the Muslim Brotherhood's primary technique to achieve its own stated goal of "destroying Western civilization" is "civilization jihad", which is then described in detail. The document also has an attached list of 29 groups under the heading "Our organizations and organizations of our friends: Imagine if they all march according to one plan!"
