Pulling Back the Curtain

Pulling Back the Curtain

God does not waste words in His book. His book is silent on many things, but everything we need to know is there. His word can be summed up in two words, integrity and sacrifice. We, who bear the name of Christ, must be a living sacrifice in a profane society, world, flesh, devil, our lives of integrity. IF, eighty years ago, when I was a child, the curtain could have been pulled back, showing what life would be like now, no one, absolutely no one would believe such. We just refuse to believe that God knew what He was talking about (2 Timothy 3) at the end of the world. He is the Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end. He has already seen the parade, knew how broad the “road” to destruction. (Matthew 7:13)

We could not have believed such because everything in His book, everything in every biology, sociology, legal, book, sees marriage between a man and a woman. Not in the imagination of the heathen could one believe their would actually be same-sex marriage. Only in the imagination of the heathen could a nation believe that military forces could have bi-sexuals, men, women, attempting to win a war when, the most powerful force in combat is “espirit de corps”.

Only the heathen would have believed that one-fourth of the female population would have tattoos, that news broadcasts would be filled with attempts to force taxpayers to pay for “contraceptives”. God knows more about the heathen than do we, but the anguish of forcing the Catholic denomination (colleges, hospitals) to throw out their historical doctrines proclaiming their pro-life status. God obviously knows more about the heathen than do we. WHY the unborn should be killed, promoted by those who are paid to teach children, promoted by old people who want young people to work and pay taxes for their entitlements.

When the masculine cell fertilizes the first female cell, a new person, an individual fingerprint has been created. The population, development of the earth, depends entirely on procreation. Selfish, hedonistic disciples of Satan, like the eugenicists, Margaret Sanger, Bill Gates, Adolph Hitler, Mao Tse Tung, want to limit the world's population. The population of the earth, 7 billion at present, could live in the state of Texas, no more thickly “squeezed” than the citizens of Washington, DC. We have a citizenry, so stupid, that poisons (fluoride, chloride, used by Nazi Germany to control captives) are placed in water systems while at the same time forbidding the smoking of cigarettes on a beach, where wind is too “torrential” to fly a kite. We have a citizenry now, eighty-two years from my birth, in which 50% of producers are expected to support the other 50% of moochers, a citizenry, in which 52% of all black babies are killed before birth, 70% are in a one parent home. A citizenry in which, in addition to illegal addictions, Big Pharma wants every man, woman, and child taking two legal prescriptions each day. With “seedless” marriages, seedless plant life-vegetables-fruits, genetically-controlled everything.

Our ancestors would never believe that parents would so “hate” their children that they would force them into a pagan schoolhouse, a pagan church house, (lesbian preacher in the pulpit) a pagan courthouse-state house where justice is no longer blind or blind-folded, but justice has large pockets for large bills.

God will allow us to go as crazy as we want to go, go as far astray as we want to go, will beat us to death with war. Ronnie Milsap sang the song, Any Day Now. Before the end of 2012, Middle East war, American ships, Indian Ocean, planes and drones over the Middle East, 18 million killed in Syria, the population of Cairo, 18 million, probably 18 million killed in Iran... hundreds of thousands in Israel. Can we even imagine the horror story in this country before the curtain falls?, end of the performance.

Come To The Dance

Come To The Dance

Come To The Dance

            The writer is a world traveler, every continent, in the international weather forecast, I have never heard BBC radio mention a city which I have not visited. I believe I have seen throngs of humanity, airports, streets, daily activities in spite of their language skills, body smells, actions of deceit or happiness, all in the RAW, mostly civilized, all made in the very image of God.

            We study the Old Testament, Abraham, Moses, Isaiah; the New Testament, Paul, Peter, even Deemus of the New Testament. We study Abraham Lincoln, Thomas Edison, Dwight Moody, and even Theodore Roosevelt. The history of the world has been punctuated by saints and sinners of interest, whose lives were different. Many of whom, presented a good version of self. Never in view, perhaps an obituary in the newspaper, the many human beings who made a great contribution to the world.

            What was the average man or woman, the millions of Jewish slaves held in bondage for 400 years, led from bondage by Moses, really like? What were the men and woman who survived the black plague of Europe really like? Their ways of survival, methods of raising children, escaping the torture dungeons of their slave masters? They had only one life too. Did any of these ancients ever smile, laugh, FIND ANY JOY IN LIVING?

            Now, we think of the early colonial settlers in America, many, so sick, buried at sea. What was it like to build shelter, eek out a bare existence from the earth when they got off the ship? We know, from written reports, one of which I have here in my house, written with a quill pen, that their happiness came from faith in God which they had crossed the ocean to enjoy. Obviously the joy in their struggle came from God's word and God's hymns. The purpose of the gospel is to deal with sin. As well as supplying the spiritual stamina for faith preservation. Lower animals have survival instincts-will run from a pursuer. Dogs are known to have chewed off a leg to escape a trap, nothing as vicious as a mother bear. In the African bush, I have seen the mother lion always get between her cubs and non-threatening tourists.

            I have studied Thomas Malthus (Anglican clergyman-promoter of population control) , Margaret Sanger (starwort of planned parenthood-promoter of population control, by the killing of less desirables, blacks, "weeds") and even Hitler and his ilk (holocaust of population control through Arian supremacy).  Strange that in today's world, liberals such as Bill Gates (world's richest man, 66 billion), Henry Kissinger and many other "Big I, little You" world figures, just too anxious, abortion and otherwise, to kill God's creation...red, yellow, black and white, poor, often disabled, yet made in the magnificence of God, all invited to the dance of life...and who knows, many have been CHOSEN-God DRAWS (John 6:44) to spend eternity with Him...real favoritism-selection.

            William Booth, irascible, washed clean by the precious blood of Jesus, walked the streets of London, anxious to convert sinners to his marvelous faith. The smelly youth he brought into the Methodist church, cleaned up by salvation, not measuring up to the starched members, forced to go out and form their own group, now the Salvation army, more than 4 million strong, what were these unlearned people like?...probably like the disciples of Jesus. "Now when they saw the boldness of Peter and John, and perceived that they were unlearned and ignorant men, they marveled; and they took knowledge of them, that they had been with Jesus" (Acts 4:13).

            This farm boy, his father's farm next to a very large "land hog's" farm, farm worked by black tenants. At noon, I would see the black boys, mules unhitched from the plows, riding the mules to the house...both for water and lunch. The mules were carefully cared for because they were security for the farmer "land hog."  The boys, farm hands, lived, human beings, tags of poverty. One told me he had only one change of clothing. Yet, I know one who survived "that life" and went on to establish a famous factory.

            Eating my biscuit in Hardees, blind, I overhear everything, a man said, "My mother worked at Efird's Department store for 40 years, standing on her feet all day long, raising five children on her meager income. Now, she gets 743$ a month social security and some food stamps. This is the American dance party."

            This writer has found that there is a story in every life.  Politicians and beurocrats, so callous, so unashamedly unconcerned in dealing with the common man, have no idea who or what they are dealing with. IF, Jehovah God, has the very hairs on the head of these people numbered (Matthew 10:30), God is well aware of the treatment of every person and I truly believe He has a special place in his heart of love for children (born and unborn), the elderly (even the lonely in nursing homes), and the disenfranchised.

            I know that God hates sin, death (Romans 6:23). Basic Christianity is nothing more or less than sins ruin and Christ redemption. Christianity is not complicated, just tough. Most want it easy, their way. Most want to pick and chose what they believe, do not pick scientific laws, else the laws of gravity-motion would not work for them, else the laws of chemical poisons would not work for them. Invited to the dance, "you trust and obey." Never, I repeat, never, underestimate any human being whom God has designed and placed on this earth. The Apostle Paul was the world's greatest bigot. Libraries are full with biographies, men and woman, not cringing in fear, realizing that they are not their own, bought with a great price, belonging to God. It never ceases to amaze me the ability God has invested in people. The manager of one hotel owned by Leona Helmsley told me, "This woman has the ability to look across any banquet hall and tell if one flower in one arrangement is wrongly placed." 

            God has blessed man with free will, every station of life. No matter how poor or rich, learned or unlearned, in his mercy, he will never force his will. Beyond comprehension, the greatest attribute of God, his forgiveness, and our ability to forgive. "The way of the wicked [is] an abomination unto the LORD: but he loveth him that followeth after righteousness" (Proverbs 15:9).

THE PENTAGON & GAY PRIDE

January 14, 2020

THE PENTAGON & GAY PRIDE

The one thing which the unbelieving Atheist can never, and will never, understand, the sovereignty of God. Just as the deceived – disenfranchised, self-appointed – anointed, one speck of humanity on the globe, thinks he comprehends it all, you always have the exception. The Agnostic, thinking on human terms of fairness – cookie-cutter typology thinks that by some miracle of accidental evolution which man has the ability to understand simply because man can never understand the magnificence of creation even to the every day processes of photosynthesis, clotting of blood – extremes of amino acids, even the trajectory compounding of nuclear reactions we can forget the particular - chosen blessings of the Creator of the universe.

God chose some to bless in unusual ways. Probably Amram & Jochebed (if they could have looked ahead instead of backward) had no idea what they had produced in Moses...Jesse in David, even David thinking of Solomon. Just think of what Abraham Lincoln's parents would have thought if they could have seen his future.

Thank God, we are not stuck where we start. God has unusual sightedness for some of us. I remember my parents telling me that my fourth grade teacher, Ms. Champion, told them that I was a Mensa student. They did not know what Mensa meant. Now we know...one who has a photographic memory.

Even now, I can describe every room in every building I have ever entered...when I had eyesight.

I remember my mother, her many sisters, one after college graduation, WWII, working at the Pentagon in Washington. I was always all ears as well as all seeing. I remember her describing that huge building. Little did she realize that I would be an Army field grade officer, walking through that tremendous military installation. The Pentagon itself, covers 29 acres on a plot of 300 acres about half the land size of nearby Arlington National Cemetery which covers 600 acres. The Pentagon, like so many truly American super structures (World Trade Center, Sears Tower, Empire State Building) a glorified American landmark.

Whatever happened to the World Trade Center buildings, much dispute, they surely were not knocked down by airplanes anymore than the Empire State Building was knocked down by the plane that hit it in 1945 or the Building 7 (47 story building which was probably imploded from the inside). Our enemies know our affections for certain landmarks, probably the plane which crashed in Pennsylvania was heading for the Capital building BUT WHATEVER HAPPENED nothing is as embarrassing to those of us who have worn the uniform of this nation, pledged allegiance to its flag, than the celebrating of Gay Pride Month at the Pentagon...the epitome of this nation's super power status in the world.

Are political – military officials in Washington too drunken from Happy Hour (I understand Happy Hour extends 24 hours in many areas of our nation's capital) to comprehend WHY we have not won a war since WWII? Korea was a stand off, Vietnam – Iraq – Afghanistan, etc, all defeats. The one inestimable factor in all military operations “esprit de corps” the affection and loyalty of military for one another. The inserting of females into the ranks has done nothing but lowered military moral and effectiveness. Just as lesbian preachers, sissy pastors, have about destroyed the warfare capability of the church (the Christian religion has always involved warfare with the devil – power – prince of the air. Ephesians 6). Most Christians have never understood that we are at war against evil, necessary to put on the whole armor of God (Ephesians 6). Our only chance of victory “greater is He that is in us than he that is in the world” (1 John 4:4). The military might of America has been compromised not by our enemies but by ourselves and the political leadership more interested in “political correctness”, the voting power of minorities, than winning in military conflict. We know that drones are above us. That present day administrations are empowering security against those who do not go along with their defeatist attitude (we believe that $1 trillion has been allotted to Homeland Security – intelligence operations, to keep Americans under control who question anything about administration policies). Our country, our military now considered a patient, is on life support. Most news broadcasts are just propaganda. Anytime you hear recovery, you are being lied to. There is no recovery economically, militarily, politically or spiritually. In every area of American life we now undergo conditioning for future events such as the deactivation of the banking systems. There will be false flags, perhaps an attempted act of assassination, but just as with the gay agenda taking over even the military, the national agenda is to keep everything under subjection. There is only one dimension of understanding on this earth, it started with God's rights to one tree. He will have the last word about it all.

I Thirst For You: Prayer, For All The Broken Hearted

I Thirst For You: Prayer, For All The Broken Hearted

 

 

I beg you to read this prayer from Mother Teresa of Calcutta. Those of us who have experienced thirst can well associate with our blessed Lord when He expressed thirst. My prayer everyday is that those of us who have an intimate relationship with Him, will have a thirst to bring the gospel of salvation-- sin's ruin and Christ's redemption-- to a rapidly deteriorating world.

- Dr. Thomas Morris

 

I Thirst For You: Prayer, For All The Broken Hearted

By Mother Teresa

I Thirst for You
"Behold, I stand at the door and knock… (Rev. 3, 20)
Jesus Crucified

It is true. I stand at the door of your heart, day and night. Even when you are not listening, even when you doubt it could be Me, I am there. I await even the smallest sign of your response, even the least whispered invitation that will allow Me to enter.

And I want you to know that whenever you invite Me, I do come – always, without fail. Silent and unseen I come, but with infinite power and love, and bringing the many gifts of My Spirit. I come with My mercy, with My desire to forgive and heal you, and with a love for you beyond your comprehension – a love every bit as great as the love I have received from the Father ("As much as the Father has loved me, I have loved you…" (Jn. 15:10) I come - longing to console you and give you strength, to lift you up and bind all your wounds. I bring you My light, to dispel your darkness and all your doubts. I come with My power, that I might carry you and all your burdens; with My grace, to touch your heart and transform your life; and My peace I give to still your soul.

I know you through and through. I know everything about you. The very hairs of your head I have numbered. Nothing in your life is unimportant to Me. I have followed you through the years, and I have always loved you – even in your wanderings. I know every one of your problems. I know your needs and your worries. And yes, I know all your sins. But I tell you again that I love you – not for what you have or haven’t done – I love you for you, for the beauty and dignity My Father gave you by creating you in His own image. It is a dignity you have often forgotten, a beauty you have tarnished by sin. But I love you as you are, and I have shed My Blood to win you back. If you only ask Me with faith, My grace will touch all that needs changing in your life, and I will give you the strength to free yourself from sin and all its destructive power.

I know what is in your heart – I know your loneliness and all your hurts – the rejections, the judgments, the humiliations, I carried it all before you. And I carried it all for you, so you might share My strength and victory. I know especially your need for love – how you are thirsting to be loved and cherished. But how often have you thirsted in vain, by seeking that love selfishly, striving to fill the emptiness inside you with passing pleasures – with the even greater emptiness of sin. Do you thirst for love? "Come to Me all you who thirst…" (Jn. 7: 37). I will satisfy you and fill you. Do you thirst to be cherished? I cherish you more than you can imagine – to the point of dying on a cross for you.

I Thirst for You. Yes, that is the only way to even begin to describe My love for you. I THIRST FOR YOU. I thirst to love you and to be loved by you – that is how precious you are to Me. I THIRST FOR YOU. Come to Me, and I will fill your heart and heal your wounds. I will make you a new creation, and give you peace, even in all your trials I THIRST FOR YOU. You must never doubt My mercy, My acceptance of you, My desire to forgive, My longing to bless you and live My life in you. I THIRST FOR YOU. If you feel unimportant in the eyes of the world, that matters not at all. For Me, there is no one any more important in the entire world than you. I THIRST FOR YOU. Open to Me, come to Me, thirst for Me, give me your life – and I will prove to you how important you are to My Heart.

Don’t you realize that My Father already has a perfect plan to transform your life, beginning from this moment? Trust in Me. Ask Me every day to enter and take charge of your life. – and I will. I promise you before My Father in heaven that I will work miracles in your life. Why would I do this? Because I THIRST FOR YOU. All I ask of you is that you entrust yourself to Me completely. I will do all the rest.

Even now I behold the place My Father has prepared for you in My Kingdom. Remember that you are a pilgrim in this life, on a journey home. Sin can never satisfy you, or bring the peace you seek. All that you have sought outside of Me has only left you more empty, so do not cling to the things of this life. Above all, do not run from Me when you fall. Come to Me without delay. When you give Me your sins, you gave Me the joy of being your Savior. There is nothing I cannot forgive and heal; so come now, and unburden your soul.

No matter how far you may wander, no matter how often you forget Me, no matter how many crosses you may bear in this life; there is one thing I want you to always remember, one thing that will never change. I THIRST FOR YOU – just as you are. You don’t need to change to believe in My love, for it will be your belief in My love that will change you. You forget Me, and yet I am seeking you every moment of the day – standing at the door of your heart and knocking. Do you find this hard to believe? Then look at the cross, look at My Heart that was pierced for you. Have you not understood My cross? Then listen again to the words I spoke there – for they tell you clearly why I endured all this for you: "I THIRST…"(Jn 19: 28). Yes, I thirst for you – as the rest of the psalm – verse I was praying says of Me: "I looked for love, and I found none…" (Ps. 69: 20). All your life I have been looking for your love – I have never stopped seeking to love you and be loved by you. You have tried many other things in your search for happiness; why not try opening your heart to Me, right now, more than you ever have before.

Whenever you do open the door of your heart, whenever you come close enough, you will hear Me say to you again and again, not in mere human words but in spirit. "No matter what you have done, I love you for your own sake Come to Me with your misery and your sins, with your troubles and needs, and with all your longing to be loved. I stand at the door of your heart and knock. Open to Me, for I THIRST FOR YOU…"

Blessings and Hope for the New Year

This 89 year old totally blind 100% disable Veteran of the Korean Conflict, ask you to listen and consider the remarkable thoughts in the mind of this man,just as we consider much the remarkable thoughts of everything that came out of the mouth of God.
My time here is short, bedridden, 24 hour round the clock care. The time has come for all of us to get more serious in our prayer life. Knowing that our time on earth is very short and in death it's final. The aggravation of the lack of things that I needs such as certain items of foods and other things that is not really considered that are needed. As I think what a democratic republic as a so call Christian Nation will give to disable citizens, as a good example I keep several radios on the one by my bed is never turned off, on these holidays they talk all the time about values: about taking care of the needed, lonely. I hope some veteran will get better care than I. We cry to God to keep us close to his heart of love and under his hand of protective care. We rejoice in the thought that when it's over we will have nothing but gratefulness for life and all it's trials and blessings, We are Thankful.
