Spotted Owl

Spotted Owl

            Troubles with the spotted owl brought to the nations attention over the past decade, now believed to be more a problem with the spotted owls cousin, the barred owl. So, attempting another way to save spotted, the "good-times folks" environmentalists, have decided to shoot and thin out the barred owls which should bring great comfort to all of us.

            Much like the spotted owl, bacteria. The good-times folks, big Pharma enabled by the state controlled news media, decided that all BACTERIA IS BAD hence, anti-bacteria soap, wipes, medicines. When will they learn that our body, nature, even the existence of man on earth, depend on the effectiveness of bacteria...the gut, trash piles, everywhere.

            It has been astounding to the "so called" medical scientist using placebos in research. Thinking their "miracle drugs" so great, many studies found that placebos were more effective than the drugs.

            Have you ever considered how much greater warfare, antagonism, religion-intrigue, among Muslims would be if not divided up into different sex...sunnis, shiites, kurds, all of whom like to kill one another.

            Have you ever considered the liberals who love government controls, totalitarianism, so much, what life would be like in this country, expenses personal and public suffering if not for the CONCERN and Christian principles of those who do believe as well as, can recite "the golden rule?"

            God, in his marvelous laws, telling his chosen what they could eat, was careful to eliminate many crawling things-even flying things such as the owl, "...the vulture after his kind, And the owl, and the night hawk, and the cuckow, and the hawk after his kind" (Deuteronomy 14:13-15).   In the food chain, the magnificence of it all, the owl has its reasons for existence.

            On the farm, vast acres of woodland near our farmhouse, the sound of the owl at night was most bothersome. Once in a while, an owl would decide to vacate the woods and spend some time in that wonderful oak grove which surrounded our house. My hard working, God fearing, father, who prized his rest at night, encouraged the owl to move on by firing his shot gun up into the tree.  At times, the risky treatment of antibiotics, destroying the effective bacteria of the intestine, it is necessary to revitalize your helpful internal bacteria with probiotics.  

            Just as important, as never before in world history, bombarded by instant news of "travails" the world over, instilled-stamped in our psyche, amid world chaos, God is eternal, "For I [am] the LORD, I change not" (Malachi 3:6).  For those from responsible ancestry, those of us who are veterans of war, the very idea of an antichrist in The White House, on the highway of America, we think we see the sign, "last exit."

            One Sunday morning, many years ago, the last church where I was a member (First Baptist, Wilmington, NC), country club with a steeple, 11 well paid ministers, such as minister of spiritual formation and minister of connections. (I went there many years because the church was 5 blocks from my house and I could walk, God whispered to me, "Why do you keep going there?" In the over 20 years I was a member, I never knew the baptistery to be used one time.)

            Please don't tell me that the world has changed such as, women in the military (now wanting to be on the front lines, even in submarines), fairness to the gay agenda with same sex marriage, tax payers funding abortion (Planned Parenthood abortion clinics, 75 killings a day).

            So far, the government or Satan owns your house. Rid your house of the television and its trash, the poisons of so called foods such as chips, artificial fats and preservatives, GMO's, MSG's.

            This writer believes that placebos (harmless, psychological, no therapeutic effect), extend into every area of life.  Therapeutic oils such as chamomile, lavender and peppermint, etc. effective more for their smell-texture than remedial value, perhaps, even the alabaster box filled with such used on our blessed Lord by Mary Magdalene. We fall for and fail in many attempts to improve circumstances with our faith. One in which I was caught- "International Council of Christians and Jews" (38 groups and 32 countries). You can check this, I find that millions of dollars given mostly by Christians to an organization which does not recognize messianic Jews (Jews who believe that Jesus is the messiah, son of God), an organization which pays its director almost $900,000 a year.

            Perhaps many, but one thing this writer has been subjected, over the years, speaking of worldly matters in relation to spiritual truth. Many believe that matters of the world should be kept out of spiritual writing and speaking. Perhaps, but we must live in this world with its "flaws."  Our blessed Lord, put on a tent of human flesh, lived among us and showed us that we can live among the trials of this world. The world chose a thief and put our blessed Lord on the thief's cross. As a thief was out still robbing on the streets, the greatest event in world history was settled, once and for all. Jesus is the word. "For ever, O LORD, thy word is settled in heaven" (Psalm 119:89).
