Trump's brokered peace - phase 1 being celebrated

Trump urges Israel to seize chance for peace ahead of Egypt summit


JERUSALEM (AP) — President Donald Trump told Israeli lawmakers on Monday that their country had no more to achieve on the battlefield and must work toward peace in the Middle East after two years of war against Hamas and skirmishes with Hezbollah and Iran.​
Although the U.S.-brokered truce between Israel and Hamas remains fragile, Trump is determined to seize an opportunity to chase an elusive regional harmony.​
“Generations from now, this will be remembered as the moment that everything began to change,” he declared to the Knesset, which welcomed him as a hero.
The eight peace deal is the biggest as of yet - Thank God for our President. Blessed are the peacemakers.

Don Trump Tilts at Windmills: Rescinds All Offshore Wind Energy Areas in the US; current leases up for review

Germany loves wind energy so they get to drive their big, luxurious trucks hauling giant wind turbine parts!

IMO, wind energy has saturation point. It causes huge drag on the air currents. Less windflow over the surface means less moisture generated through wind-assisted evaporative cooling and carried upwards. Less wind reaches some places. This can affect local climate in some ways especially if the wind farm is near large bodies of water (they usually are to exploit temperatures gradients in places close to large bodies of water).

Less wind means moisture/humidity is not carried up to create clouds and may cause higher surface temps over land and over water both by less cloud coverage and water vapor acting as greenhouse gas.

It may seem like a joke but CFD studies show significantly reduced wind downwind of wind farms. The same can be said about having tall buildings near large bodies of water.

Jordan says ICE agents ‘doing the Lord’s work’

The masked marauders of ICE who "disappear'" immigrants can in no way be considered to be "enforcing government laws." Our government and our constitution guarantee due process. They do not authorize torture.

In just one well-publicized instance of ICE's inhumanity to man, a Catholic group sought to bring the Eucharist to the immig.ants at the Broadview ICE facility. ICE denied entrance to those wanting to give the immigrants, many of whom are Catholic, the body and blood of Jesus Christ.

Jesus, their brother, who was unjustly arrested, imprisoned, tortured, crucified and died, followed by so many heroic martyrs persecuted in Acts of the Apostles--St. Stephen, St. Paul, St. Peter.


And, BTW, there are "unjust" laws. God does not command us to follow unjust laws---which comprise I would estimate most of the unconstitutional overreach laws Trump has signed by edict.
This issue you raise is a legal question. If ICE does not follow due process, the matter may be addressed in court in the future.

My argument is that even if ICE operated strictly within legal protocols, these are secular laws and are not inherently connected to Biblical principles. Any Christian who equates the enforcement of government regulations with fulfilling the Lord’s work may not have fully grasped the intended message of Scripture.

The History of the “Two Laws” Theory in Romans 3:20

Also, Jesus did not sacrifice because He was perfect and needed no sacrifices or forgiveness.

You keep horribly miss-representing my posts. I never suggested or even implied that Jesus was supposed to sacrifice animals for His Sin. I will try one more time to explain myself.

The point I made, was that Jesus forgave sins as the Prophesied "Priest of God", but never by performing the "works of the Law" required by the temporary Levitical Priesthood, that was "ADDED" after the golden Calf.

Lev. 4: 30 And the priest shall take of the blood thereof with his finger, and put it upon the horns of the altar of burnt offering, and shall pour out all the blood thereof at the bottom of the altar. 31And he shall take away all the fat thereof, as the fat is taken away from off the sacrifice of peace offerings; and the priest shall burn it upon the altar for a sweet savour unto the LORD; and the priest shall make an atonement for him, and it shall be forgiven him.


Priesthood works, BTW, that were still being promoted by the mainstream religions of Paul's Time, the Pharisees, who didn't believe Moses concerning Him, to the Galatians and continued to exalt themselves as God's Priests, requiring that men, the Galatians in this case, come to them with their sacrifices to perform these Priesthood "works of the Law" for remission of sin.

The point is, God's Laws that define Righteousness, Holiness and Sin, are eternal. While the LAW "ADDED" after the Golden Calf, for remission of sins, that Paul is speaking to in Galatians was temporary, "ADDED" Till the Seed should come. Added to Lead them to the True Lamb of God for remission of sins that are past.

At least this is what the Holy Scriptures teach.

The Nobel Peace Prize went to Venezuela’s Maria Corina Machado - why not Trump? He's solved 8 wars!

I was moved to tears by the joyful reunions of the 20 Israeli hostages with their families.

I understand 1700 Palestinian political prisoners were also released. (The 10 to 1 ratio is typical of Netanyahu's inhumanity to his enemies.) I can imagine their reunions--learning that some of their loved ones had died of starvation or bombing, looking for their homes and neighborhoods and finding nothing but rubble, shoved in among the starving hoping that there would be enough food in the 600 trucks to kee p them alive another 24 hours.

I'm in a wait-and-see position. Trump never does anything without deriving some personal monetary or financial benefit. Will there indeed be a Bloodbath Beach Mar a Lago on the Mediterranean? Or are there rare earth minerals in the rubble (what a bargain, no need to mine for it). Through long experience, I know there's a "deal," an exploitation to follow.

Charlie Kirk ‘National Day of Remembrance’ to be held this week

A day of remembrance for assassinated conservative Christian figure Charlie Kirk is scheduled to be held on Tuesday, which would have been the political activist's 32nd birthday.

Although the date has not been made an official national holiday, the Oct. 14 observance comes as both chambers of Congress passed resolutions honoring Kirk last month.

The House of Representatives passed its resolution in a 310 to 58 vote on Sept. 19, with dozens of House Democrats voting against. The Senate passed a measureunanimously on Sept. 16.

U.S. Sen. Rick Scott, R-Fla., who attended the public memorial for Kirk in Arizona last month, introduced the Senate resolution. During his remarks in favor of the resolution, Scott stated that millions of people "felt the impact of Charlie's work and were inspired by his devotion to God and his beliefs."

"Charlie was a good man — a devout husband, father, and friend. His life was shaped by his faith and the idea that in America, debate and discussion are crucial to the betterment of our country," Scott said.

"He believed in God, the American dream, the value of family, and the principles of our great nation. … Charlie dedicated his life to the idea that the power of our ideas can not only win the day, but start a movement. That's exactly what he did."

Conservative alternative to UMC grows to 6,000 member churches

A denomination founded as a theologically conservative alternative to the United Methodist Church has grown to include 6,000 member congregations worldwide.

The Global Methodist Church, which was launched on May 1, 2022, announced on its Facebook page last Friday that it had reached the 6,000-member church milestone.

“That's 6,000 pulpits preaching the Gospel,” stated the GMC. “6,000 altars where hearts are renewed. … 6,000 congregations worshiping in a variety of nations and languages.”

“Join us in praying for the movement as we continue to welcome existing churches and plant new ones to spread the love of Christ to our communities and beyond.”

The formation of the GMC came in response to the decades-long divisive debate over whether the UMC should amend its Book of Discipline to allow the blessing of same-sex marriages and the ordination of those in same-sex sexual relationships.

Understanding Colossians and Ephesians and the author of ordinances that were against Jesus, Paul and the Church of God. Part 2.

Matt. 3: 7 But when he saw many of the Pharisees and Sadducees come to his baptism, he said unto them, O "generation of vipers", who hath warned you to flee from the wrath to come? 8 Bring forth therefore fruits meet for repentance: 9 And think not to say within yourselves, We have Abraham to our father: for I say unto you, that God is able of these stones to raise up children unto Abraham.

Same world, same serpent, same "other voice". Jesus fought against the philosophies promoted by these preachers His whole life. Not because they obeyed God's Word, but because they rejected God's Word.

How many time did Jesus address the mainstream preachers of His Time? How much of HIS Teaching was geared towards exposing the hypocrisy and wickedness of the Priests of the Temple in the City of God? And they murdered Him for it.

Paul, being zealous for the commandments and traditions of men this worldly religion promoted, persecuted God's Church, just as the wicked Kings of Israel did to the Faithful, and Cain did to Abel.

Jesus and Paul battled, Not God's Judgments and Ordinances, but the commandments and judgments of men that "professed to know God".

When Jesus was asked about the end times and what to look out for, here is what HE warned about.

Matt. 24: 4 And Jesus answered and said unto them, Take heed that no man deceive you. (He didn't warn about God or His laws and judgments deceiving us) 5 For "many" shall come in my name, saying, I (Jesus) am Christ; and "shall deceive" many.
He didn't warn about the "commandments contained of God's Ordinances", He didn't warn about the "handwriting of ordinances of God" that was against them, HE specifically warned about being deceived by "other voices" who profess to know God, even coming in HIS Name”.
Paul fought against these mainstream religions of the world God placed him in, every day after his conversion. Their philosophy, their ordinances and laws, were against him and against the church of God, just as they had been since the very first "other voice" who professed to God, deceived Eve. He didn't fight against God's Law, He fought against the principalities and powers of darkness. It was the Pharisees Law that condemned Jesus and Stephen to death. Just as it was their fathers law that condemned the prophets God sent to them, just as it was Eves Law that instructed her to eat, what God said not to eat.

But in many sermons on Colossians and Ephesians, promoted by the preachers of this world God placed me in, all of this is ignored, not even considered in the "context" of their teaching.
Because of the omission of these extremely important Biblical Truths, this world's religions have always united in their teaching that God's Judgments and Feasts and commandments are "against men". As a result they incorrectly identify the author of the "Handwriting of Ordinances" that Paul said was against Jesus, Paul and the Body of Christ, claiming it was God, when it wasn't, in Colossians. And they do the same in Ephesians, preaching that it was “God’s” Ordinances and Judgments" that relegated Faithful Gentiles as “without Christ, being aliens from the commonwealth of Israel, and strangers from the covenants of promise, having no hope, and without God in the world:

Anyone who is willing to study God’s Word, knows this is not true. God very Law gave hope and an avenue to Him for "ALL" people, we can tread this for ourselves.

Lev. 19: 33 And if a stranger sojourn with thee in your land, ye shall not vex him. 34 But "the stranger" that dwelleth with you "shall be unto you" as one born among you, and thou shalt love him as thyself; for ye were strangers in the land of Egypt: I am the LORD your God.


This world's religions do the same When Peter says in acts 15, "why tempt you God to place a Yoke on the necks of the disciples that they or their fathers couldn't bear". The promoters of this world's religions teach this “Yoke” is God's Laws that they claim, and have always claimed "were against them".

But Jesus Himself tells us who created this Yoke.

Matt. 23: 4 For they (Pharisees, not God) bind heavy burdens and grievous to be borne, and "lay them on men's shoulders"; but they themselves will not move them with one of their fingers. Of course Peter knew this because he was there when Jesus taught it, and he knew of the Shepherds who lead God people astray "by the precepts of men", spoken of by the Holy Prophets.
I could go on and on. Jesus said men are to live by "Every Word" of God, and I believe Him. But “MANY” have been convinced by the "other voice" that some of God's Word are against them and contrary to them and therefore men shouldn't live by them. Exactly the same message given to Eve in the very beginning. Paul warns about this very thing, from turning away from the Simplicity of Christ. “Live by God’s Words”, not "other voices".

Paul warns of this very thing also in Colossians and Ephesians.

Col. 2: 8 Beware lest "any man" spoil you through philosophy and vain deceit, after the tradition “of men”, after the rudiments “of the world”, and not after Christ. (The Rock that followed, Fed and Watered Israel)

Eph. 2: 1 And you hath he quickened, who were dead in trespasses and sins; 2 Wherein in time past ye walked according to the course “of this world”, according to the "prince of the power of the air", “the spirit” that now worketh “in the children of disobedience”:

But somehow in spite of all this teaching, we are preached to by "many", who call Jesus Lord, Lord, that it wasn't the Traditions, philosophies and ordinances of men that was against Paul and the Church of God, it was the Ordinances of God.

It is my hope that anyone reading this will “do the Study themselves”, in Faith that God is Perfect, and it is philosophies of the "other voices" in the World that God placed us in, that was against Jesus, Paul and the Church of God, and is against the Faithful even to this day. And that Jesus didn't "live by" the Commandments of men they taught for doctrines. And even though they killed Him, the very God they Professed to know, raised Him from the dead. Truly HE triumphed over the prince of this world whose ordinances condemned Him to death.

And for that I say, "Amen".

Please don't hesitate to ask questions or PM me to engage in honest discussions about these things.

Israel-Hamas Thread II

Judea and Samaria, with approximately 3.3 million "Palestinian" inhabitants, has roughly one million more residents than Gaza. Children represent about 44% of the total population (41% in Judea/Samaria, and 47% in Gaza Strip). The number of Christians is around 45,000 to 50,000 in Judea and Samaria and Jerusalem combined. This represents approximately 1–2% of the total population of the historical heartland of the Jewish people.

Evolution conflict and division

Quibbling? Before 2025 studies, Dr. Tour correctly states the biologist's claimed similarity:

While the genetic difference between individual humans today is minuscule – about 0.1%, on average – study of the same aspects of the chimpanzee genome indicates a difference of about 1.2%.
Right, that's a statement of fact. But as I explained before the key context that supports human/chimp common ancestry (specific to similarity percentage) is how the amount of similarity stacks up relative to our similarity to other organisms. If our genome were 98.8% similar to chimps but 99.6% similar to Ponderosa Pine trees our conclusions would be different.

Add in the specific types of genetic errors we share and, genetically, it's a no-brainer. Geneticists aren't idiots.

Understanding Colossians and Ephesians and the author of ordinances that were against Jesus, Paul and the Church of God.

It seems prudent to point out some undeniable Biblical truths that many preachers, whose sermons and I have read and heard for most of my 66 years of life, refuse to consider, concerning Colossians and Ephesians. There is nothing wrong in pointing these things out in the hope of having a discussion about them. And there is no shame in learning something that was heretofore not considered or known. I am not promoting myself here, I am a nobody. Nevertheless, the following "context" is missing from popular religious philosophies promoted by “Many who come in Christ’s Name”, as Jesus Himself warned, and I thought it the right thing, according to the teaching of the Jesus of the bible, to point some of these things out for the edification the brethren. My hope is that some might do the study of the Holy Scriptures themselves, which Paul said were trustworthy "for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness: That the man of God may be perfect, throughly furnished unto all good works."


One very popular religious philosophy being promoted by the religions of this world that God placed me in, that I’m addressing here concerning Colossians and Ephesians, is the origin of the “ordinances” promoted by the “Jews Religion” that Paul is saying were “Against Jesus, Paul and the Body of Christ. The popular religious philosophy I am challenging here, is that these were “God’s Ordinances”, that “GOD” was the author of the ordinances that were against Jesus, Paul and the Church of God. That “THEY” were the “principality and powers” that Jesus Spoiled, made a show of, and Triumphed over on the Cross, and that because God’s Ordinances were against Jesus, Paul and the Church of God, Jesus came to "nail them to the cross".

I don’t believe this was Paul’s teaching at all, based on what the Bible actually says when all of it is considered, and this study of the Scriptures is the reason why. The entire “City of David” was under the rule of religious men who professed to know God, but were teaching for doctrines the Commandment of Men, not God. And it was their ordinances that condemned Jesus to death, as they themselves said, “We have a LAW, and by OUR Law HE must die”. Their Law also condemned the Prophets and Stephen to death, and by their Law “the Church of God” was persecuted. Not because I say so, but because Paul said so.

Phil. 3: 5 Circumcised the eighth day, of the stock of Israel, of the tribe of Benjamin, an Hebrew of the Hebrews; as touching the law, "a Pharisee";

6 Concerning zeal, persecuting the church; touching the righteousness which is in the law, (Pharisees Law) blameless.

Whose righteousness did the Pharisees, “Jews Religion” live by according to Paul's Own Teaching? According to “many” who come in Christ’s Name, they were trying to earn salvation by obeying God’s Law.

But when Paul words are considered, here is what he actually said.

Rom. 10: 1 Brethren, my heart's desire and prayer to God for Israel is, that they might be saved.

2 For I bear them record that they have a zeal of God, but not according to knowledge.

3 For they being ignorant” "of God's righteousness", and going about to establish their own” righteousness,have not submitted themselvesunto the righteousness “of God”.


I found that this is a very touchy subject for some of have been convinced of who promote the ancient philosophy that God's Ordinances are against men, but please believe me when I say I don’t post this study to offend anyone. Only that folks might consider what is actually written and do the study for themselves, and thereby “Proving" what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God, and escape the deception God has warned us of so many times.

So in the spirit of God’s Love and the search of God’s Righteousness, please consider the following.

From the very beginning of the Holy Scriptures, which I believe to be a very important part of the Armor of God that HE told us through Paul, to "put on", God has placed His creation into a world in which God's Word exists, and which also exists, the voice of another, who is not God. But is a voice "Contrary to God", and "Against God". The entire purpose of these two voices, in my understanding, is, according to God’s Word, to prove men, “whether they will walk in my law, or no.”.

Spiritually speaking every person who partakes of the Passover, is brought into this worlderness.

Deut. 8: 2 And thou shalt remember all the way which the LORD thy God led thee these forty years in the wilderness, to humble thee, and to prove thee, to know what was in thine heart, whether thou wouldest keep his commandments, or no.3 And he humbled thee, and suffered thee to hunger, and fed thee with manna, which thou knewest not, neither did thy fathers know; that he might make thee know that man doth not live by bread only, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of the LORD doth man live.

From the very beginning God placed His People in a world where “other voices” exist, who are contrary to God. The very first deception, shown to us by God for our admonition, is a teaching that promotes the philosophy that God’s Laws are against mankind. That God’s instruction cannot be trusted.

Gen. 3: 4 And the serpent said unto the woman, Ye shall not surely die: 5 For God doth know that in the day ye eat thereof, (Reject God’s Word) then your eyes shall be opened, and (Then) ye shall be as gods, “knowing” good and evil.


As you can see, this “other voice” is teaching that as long as Eve submits to God’s Ordinances and commandments, she will remain “Blind and ignorant”.

And how it does this, according to the very first recorded deception, is to "profess to know God", and even quote "Some" of God's Word in its goal to deceive the whole world into believing that it is God’s instruction in righteousness, that was against mankind.
We can see the influence of this "other voice" from the very beginning. Cain, the world God placed Noah in, the world at Abraham's Time. All these men, like Sodom, knew of God and His Word, but were seduced into believing “another voice”. Israel's children were even seduced by the other voices in the world God placed them in, and God sent them Moses to reinstate the Judgments, Commandments Statutes and Laws Abraham was given, and obeyed for his good and the good of those around him.

In each case, there were "other voices" who also professed to know God, but refused to accept what HE instructed so they could overcome in this world.
Caleb was threatened by the masses who succumbed to this "other voice". But he had a different "spirit" in him and was not persuaded by the "other voices". God sent Prophets who warned over and over and over and over about false teachers, men who preached to them, that HE didn't send. Religious men who preach, as the Prophet teaches, "they say unto every one that walketh after the imagination of his own heart, No evil shall come upon you". The exact same message of the serpent to Eve. Isaiah warned about this world’s preachers, who taught the "precepts of men".

Is. 29: 13 Wherefore the Lord said, Forasmuch as this people draw near me with their mouth, and with their lips do honour me, but have removed their heart far from me, and their fear toward me is taught by the precept of men:


An entire world deceived by the "Other voice" who professes to know God, according to the Holy scriptures.

But there was a New Priest prophesied, "after a different order". A Priest that was to be incorruptible. A Prophet like Moses, who God would give His Words to. The Faithful believers and examples of Faith in the OT waited for this savior in obedience to God, and were tortured and killed for it, by men who "professed to know God".

The very last book in the Holy Scriptures, available to me is Malachi. And he was still furthering this truth of the world we were placed in. Explaining how even the temporary Priesthood Covenant God made with Levi, to convince men to trust God and adopt "HIS" instruction, became corrupted by listening to this “other voice”.

Mal. 2: 4 And ye shall know that I have sent this commandment unto you, that my covenant might be with Levi, saith the LORD of hosts.

5 My covenant was with him of life and peace; and I gave them to him for the fear wherewith he feared me, and was afraid before my name. (Ex. 32:26) 6 The law of truth was in his mouth, and iniquity was not found in his lips: he walked with me in peace and equity, and did "turn many away from iniquity". 7 For the priest's lips should keep knowledge, and they should seek the law at his mouth: for he is the messenger of the LORD of hosts. 8 But ye are departed out of the way; ye have caused many to stumble at the law; ye have corrupted the covenant of Levi, (finding fault with them) saith the LORD of hosts. 9 Therefore have I also made you contemptible and base before all the people, according as ye have not kept "my ways", but have been partial in the law.

The Last message I received from God though His Prophets before this High Priest of God came was;

Mal. 4: 4 Remember ye the law of Moses my servant, which I commanded unto him in Horeb for all Israel, with the statutes and judgments. 5 Behold, I will send you Elijah the prophet before the coming of the great and dreadful day of the LORD: 6 And he shall turn the heart of the fathers to the children, and the heart of the children to their fathers, lest I come and smite the earth with a curse.

What many are not taught to consider in this world God placed us in, is that John the Baptist and Jesus were placed in the same world. And the same world surrounding them was deceived by the same “other voice” that professed to know God, even quoting “some” of God’s Word, convincing them as it did Eve, that God's Laws were against them.

I will finish the study in part 2.

Whose groceries are more Expensive?

Inflation under Biden fell faster than any other G-8 nation.
What is happening under Trump is what Trump has enacted all by himself. The comparison is not the same at all.

Bill Gates launches micro-patch implants to serve as "vaccination passport" for entry into public and commercial buildings

I remember when that movie first came out. That and the Exorcist. I never saw either in the theaters but I watched them later when they showed on TV. Her husband completely sold his soul for earthly gain and fame.
So why were they acting like the baby was the actual son of Satan? I was just watching it off and on and I got the impression that the husband was part of the satanic group and possibly some sort of spawn of Satan. I guess I need to pay closer attention if I catch it again but it gave off such creepy vibes I just kind of walked away through out it. I’m sure it will be on given the season.

The Brokenness of Christianity

So what is your alternative? If seeking God for answers isn't the answer, despite the fact that the bible countless times says to not lean on our own understanding, then what do you propose? Because linking me to books that are written by men, isn't the answer. Because technically, you haven't given an alternative. If leaning on God for understanding and wisdom doesn't lead to universal truth, then in essence, your argument is that nothing will. We are in the problem we are in because people think they know better. People read a text without asking any divine input or even doing intensive study. Or alternatively, they do a little bit of study, think its sufficient, call it a day and dig their heels into the ground when a counter point comes around. The entire context of your point, is essentially, don't trust God to lead you because it's not guaranteed. If that's the case then we are all screwed and will fail and then whats the point of even trying if you won't reach what is God's truth in the first place? That's a horrid argument.

First of all, sister Delvianna, I didn't say we shouldn't seek God for answers. Can we be clear on that?

Secondly, "leaning not on our own understanding" might not mean---especially not in modern English/American sentiments---what it meant to either Christians in the 1st century or to Israelites living from the time of Moses through Ezra. And being as such, this is an example of why Hermeneutics and Biblical Exegesis is needed in addition to personal prayer and seeking directly, one on one, with the Lord. It's also why we can't merely dismiss verses like Ephesians 4:11-13
11 So Christ himself gave the apostles, the prophets, the evangelists, the pastors and teachers, 12 to equip his people for works of service, so that the body of Christ may be built up 13 until we all reach unity in the faith and in the knowledge of the Son of God and become mature, attaining to the whole measure of the fullness of Christ.​
Obviously, if the above is true, then the Lord meant for us to aid each other as an entire spiritual body, not merely by way of individually 'discerned' interpretive practices from our solitary reading of the Bible alone.

The Eucharist in the Early Church

My printed liturgical library consists of about 100 books. Fortunately most of them I have access to via PDFs, but a few I do not.

The trouble is, with my hands feeling like they’re on fire much of the time due to arthritis and tendonitis, even with medication, reading a physical book is painful.
I’m sorry to hear that! May God bless you in his love!
