Yes; now do the people wake up and start to get it; how Satan has been and is now building his church the final mockery and spiting in the eye of God? This is it; the evil is on fire from the beast dragon right in our faces laughing and decimating our societies, culture, humanity and religion. Marxism running rampant isn’t just a political ideology it’s actually a foundational cornerstone of Satanism and the building of the global stage for the Antichrist! It’s treason too; but nothing is stopping it or these people who are enemies within like Bernie Sanders, Kamala Harris, Pelosi, Biden and all of them!
Archbishop Vigano is a Saint; I’ve been watching this wonderful human being stand up against the absolute evil that has infiltrated the beloved Roman Catholic Church and our entire society to take control, but, this “Saintly man is only speaking truth!”
I’ve expressed my sentiments about abortion for some time now and as if that by itself wasn’t bad enough now the unborn are incorporated into being a human sacrifice to Satan and people are worshiping him knowingly in many cases but even unknowingly! If this isn’t Mark of the Beast on a person’s soul alone; I don’t know what could be worse anyway!
Here is what I had to say a couple of years ago.
In my observance of various groups of sometimes well intentioned individuals to even devil may care persons I became very concerned about what I see as a twisted secular undercurrent of apathy toward unborn innocent human beings by extremely large segments of the population and how some people would rather invest excessive amounts of time and resources to protecting many wonderful animal species that are being decimated or being treated cruelly every day but these same individuals do nothing to protect or express outrage over the annihilation of unborn human babies in the womb, birth canal and now even outside of the womb! This to me is evidence that the human race is in dire straits morally speaking as well as literally facing self-imposed deadly consequences!
Can everyone that cares so much about animals say that they honestly care even more for unborn human babies and are willing to put as much energy and effort into worrying about doing the RIGHT thing in protecting and doing what it takes to stop the “massacre of innocent babies” in the mother’s womb, birth canal and now outside of the mother! Or will we all stand by and pass the buck and watch as most people in societies have for decades now, as the “hideous diabolical monstrosity of abortion” has grown into an industry, an “INDUSTRIAL INDUSTRY” of terminating human innocent life! If not then I say you are willing to march straight into hell and be done with it! I cannot and will not support anything that won’t take human life into account before all other life on this planet! God did not create all of this to make cows and goats the equals of Human Beings! If you can’t or won’t see that then you have a serious problem as I see it, and you will have to account for it to God when your time comes! The “reverential sanctity” of human life has been cheapened and denigrated to the level of just being tissue that can be flushed down the toilet like any other waste!
You know what I’m talking about, and how even certain abortion Doctors snipped spinal cords of human babies outside of the mother! My standard is that at the “moment of conception” a “life and soul” of a human being have begun! Rationalize all you want but you ultimately “choose” if you will follow Satan into Hell or do God’s Will on earth and be a part of His “Eternal Kingdom in Heaven!” If you can’t abide by what I’m proclaiming; all of your efforts for animals are nothing more than that tissue you should flush down the toilet! Get involved with what I’m saying here or waste your time but not mine!
The deceptions in this modern world have been running rampant and it has to stop if you and others want to achieve so much good! You can’t put the cart before the horse; it must be the other way around! The human “Massacre of Innocence” must end; and all people must work toward that goal above all others!
I realize that the first and foremost thing for any good Christian is to put all faith in God and do His will; but when all people are doing different missions as a friend told me everyone has one; I say many will state mine is to do this or that and some will say just to be gay or think that it is fine to accept all manner of heathen beliefs because all should just do what they feel happy doing. Modern secularism is what she was pointing to as a mantra! The now old phrase of “do your own thing” seems to apply. I see it all too plain in many of the Veganism and so Called Animal Rights Advocates. Those groups have already been poisoned by Anti-Christ’s who use those groups as cover to further Satan’s agenda to lead as many into hell as possible before Christ returns, which isn’t going to be very long. Hindus believe in reincarnation and false pagan gods and I’ve seen so many Animal Rights persons say they are atheists, or believe in astrology; these are truly lost souls and the blind leading the blind! I hope you wake up to these things for your own good! I suggest you think hard and pray on what I say because you don’t want to be caught asleep in your faith in God the Creator or being deceived when He does return. I see so much trickery going on it is truly sickening!
We have to pay attention to what all the Holy Scriptures are telling us before all other considerations if we are believers! “Man-Made Missions” have nothing to do with being OBEDIENT to God! Satan was the beginning of all disobedience and transgression! Many are being fooled with nonsense and pop culture of man-made fads! Saying something is a mission is worthless unless you put God and his entire teachings first above all things on earth!
I know from personal experience it was very easy to fall into the snare of thinking I knew what was best, but all it was in the end was my own propaganda feeding my own folly and sinfulness! “Beware in the end times it would be so,” as the Holy Scriptures say that “men would be worshipers of self and all manner of perversions!” I see many of them doing just that in the Vegan movement and even within the flocks of people saying they serve love and nature helping all living things which is a big fat lie and you know it! Feminists and far left people are major sinners and are heading into hell following their Lord Satan! We are well only because God blesses us each day! I hope God will do the same for all of you! I owe everything to my Lord Savior and Redeemer; Jesus Christ. Amen.

“Therefore, my beloved, as you have always obeyed, so now, not only as in my presence but much more in my absence, work out your own salvation with fear and trembling, for it is God who works in you, both to will and to work for his good pleasure.” (Philippians 2:12-13)
Now nine weeks since conceiving of this post I just commented on a Pro-Life woman’s post about this subject the following:
Yes, let’s ask everyone who cares about animal life; what about the Unborn; the voiceless human beings with a soul from God that are being slaughtered by the millions partial birth and now even full term day of delivery lying helpless on the delivery table, or full term in the womb having their necks broken and then removed from the mother dead? These are Satanic events that the human race is conducting upon itself but to innocent helpless human beings; God’s children! This is even more diabolical than what Adolph Hitler wrought upon millions of Jews during WWII! This has been quite the war going on under everyone’s noses because the entire human race is either involved in this atrocity or turned a blind eye to it; making all who can say something and don’t guilty by association. I say anyone aware of this evil and able to have a say in it and doesn’t is in big trouble, because we all have been quick to fornicate or think lustful thoughts at one time or another warping and perverting the gifts that God bestowed upon us to procreate and add to God’s family; but so many stand on the sidelines saying nothing or are even cheering on and advocating abortion! Despicable and evil! Many will burn in hell.
Then there is the actual torture of an unborn human beings put through a procedure that could only be dreamed up in Hell.
I want to take any person that does this to these unborn babies and beat the tar out of them! But, I don’t have to because God will dispatch their souls to hell where they will suffer beyond anything I could dish out; eternally!
‘The most innocent and defenseless creature, the baby in the womb in the third month of gestation, is sacrificed and dismembered in order to extract tissue from his still palpitating body with which to produce a non-cure, a non-vaccine, which not only does not heal from the virus, but in all likelihood causes a greater percentage of death than Covid itself, especially in the elderly or those who are sick.’

July 21, 2021 (LifeSiteNews) – Archbishop Carlo Maria Viganò, in a foreword to abookon the problem of the coronavirus vaccine, decries the satanic nature of this vaccine using tissue of aborted babies in its production and testing. For this Italian prelate, the vaccine is a tool of the globalist ideology which is “anti-human, anti-religious, and antichristic.”

“Praise the Lord Jesus Christ”
This is a sign from above as we all have heard and know that God does work in mysterious ways! I didn’t expect to see this today and I was just listening to the “Battle Hymn of The Republic” that I recently posted in my article reblog:
Every time I watch this military orchestra/choir performing this Hymn I cry seeing all those fine American Patriots who first put God above all else, then family and country; living as individual beacons of light and hope being children of God; putting their all into serving our Father in heaven while doing His will here!
So too this Iranian Olympian fleeing tyranny like America’s founders did in many instances for a better life that would be according to God’s Holy Principles that did indeed form the basis of the “One Nation under God America” with an enlightened Constitution stating that “all men are created equal” with certain inalienable rights granted to all human beings from birth by God, but sadly too many places in the world there are people that do not see things the way God wants them to!
Saeid Mollaei this defector from Iran who has love for Israel and Jews comes from that Middle East Nation that has leaders and Jihadists who have advocated for the complete destruction of Israel and death to all Jews; and this one man brought tears to my eyes just like when listening to my Republic’s Battle Hymn, because God is at work in the music
when I hear it and when I see someone like this Olympian show the love in his heart for his brothers and sisters!
We are all in a battle; a never ending war while here on earth, but, God will never leave us high and dry and that is what’s being revealed or happening here, I do believe; in this event! God is telling us to not lose hope or be discouraged because He is our God; the God of all of us our heavenly Father, and is going to bring perfect justice and closure to this open wound that was inflicted by hate and evil upon humanity. This is meant to afford an opportunity for all to see Truth at work in our lives, “the Truth of God and to know that no matter what difficulties or hardship lies ahead, the end result will only be what God knows it should be;” it will be a perfect and glorious completion of His loving plan! Amen.
God bless all of you.
Two years ago, Saeid Mollaei, a world class Iranian judo athlete, defected from Iran. Along the way, he not only competed at events in Israel, but he befriended Israeli judoka, Sagi Muki, a world class athlete in his own right.
During the 2019 World Championships, Iranian national team coaches ordered Mollaei to lose a semifinal match in order to avoid a championship match with Muki. Following the event, Mollaei took refuge in Germany, before becoming a Mongolian citizen.
On Tuesday, he won the silver medal in the 81-kilo division and expressed thanks to Israel for the support he received following his defection.
Sagi Muki responded: “I’m super happy for Saeid. I know what he’s gone through, and how much he wanted it. He’s a very close friend of mine, and I’m so happy that he succeeded in achieving his dream. He…

This is an excellent timely report and I appreciate it!
“Who is behind the diabolical monsters in power?” Here the article asks the very or even most pertinent question and I’ll tell you that I know beyond any shadow of a doubt that it is Satan behind this debauchery and the man in the White House with a team of devils behind him are tools of the Evil One meaning the Puppet POTUS is flat-out a satanic cohort of hell; absolutely no doubt about that so of course these actions by his administration are meant to inflict harm and stir the pot as they say!
Look I hate having to talk this way having always been practically all of my life the eternal optimist on steroids but the only thing I can tell any of you that is positive in all of this and truly optimistic is that Jesus Christ is coming and all the warning shots across the bow that could have been fired have been so its time to batten down the hatches because the world as you knew it just a couple of years ago is gone and this world we are now in is changing exponentially for the worse heading toward perdition.
I’ve noticed even out and about while in the community at large in my own locale that many of Satan’s minions are being purposefully embedded throughout in strategic locations to prepare for more implementation of suffering. Even in health related program facilities a strategy has been initiated to bring battle and war upon the citizenry; the monsters that brought us this whole Covid fiasco and rampage are going to play all their cards to deliver the Devil’s due upon humanity and suffering is a foregone conclusion.
Our government’s Federal, State and otherwise don’t care one iota about any of us; we are the expendable in the NWO equation or game plan. So this means you need to prepare by praying fervently and remain vigilant each day seeking God’s will for you through Jesus Christ and the Holy Spirit will guide you. Don’t be afraid of any of the evil ones who works against our best efforts they are weak and spineless minions of the fallen angels and therefore they have no power over your souls and Jesus will save yours if you truly give your heart to Him!
John 14:26 “But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in my name, he shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you.”
“What no eye has seen, nor ear heard, nor the heart of man imagined, what God has prepared for those who love him”
John 14:26 26 “But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in my name, he shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you.”
Romans 8:31 says, “What, then, shall we say in response to these things? If God is for us, who can be against us?”
Romans 8 “Therefore, there is now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus” Romans 8:28: “And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose.”
Philippians 4:11 “I am not telling you this because I need anything. I have learned to be satisfied with the things I have and with everything that happens.”
Psalm 27:1: “The LORD is my light and my salvation—whom shall I fear? The LORD is the stronghold of my life—of whom shall I be afraid?”
Be strong through faith in Him who overcomes all and is the only path to eternal life with the Father in heaven; nothing else matters, He loves you!
God bless you. Amen.
The active Covid-19 infection rate at ICE facilities is 5%, based on their statistics. Much of this is currently concentrated in Texas facilities.
Based on the information available from the CDC and US Census, we estimate the active Covid-19 infection rate nationwide as 0.17%.
So, the illegal aliens within the ICE facilities have approximately 29 times the rate as the country as a whole.
This provides support to the probability that illegal migrants are seeding Covid-19 throughout the country, which is common sense. ICE facility workers could spread it from the facilities back to the general population, and the majority of illegal migrants are not even within facilities, but are at large, seeded amongst the general population.
The rise in Covid-19 throughout the United States followed Biden’s border surge. While this could still be a spurious correlation, that is impossible to believe. Covid-19 was dying down within the United States…

Hello Joyce…What a tremendous effort and comprehensive report here; I’m flabbergasted by what I can learn from this one piece of work and realizing now how much I didn’t know or understand well enough! You are a true “Truth Seeker and Warrior for God” in my humble opinion.
I was just talking with a sister earlier today about how much foolishness and waste of time is occurring on the internet on the many social media platforms or how people have issues that they are feeding or spreading in this cyber spider’s web I hate to say. I see things way more critically now than I used to just several to a dozen years ago and how I even used to slip into the traps that are readily available for people to become entwined in. I see how light and darkness are battling at a fever pitch everywhere now, and, I do know from even my own life experience that God is there, but the Devil is doing all he can to trip up those who are drawn to the light and truth of God Almighty; call it temptations, diversion, distraction or battle plans.
I responded to one of my postings from yesterday to a comment made on it, which you may have seen but even so I would like to leave it here as I hope my POV is relative to this so insightful dissertation and presentation you have provided graciously for anyone who is seeking understanding.
“Yes Mary Anne, that has become the new Mantra for many leaders and maybe most people in this God forsaken world of Fake Phony Lifestyle’s and People; “I Don’ Care Anymore!” A world of humanity running Pell-mell to the Precipice; not toward any Virtue or Glory, as for example the way our American Forebears saw life and lived it!
This is a world of delusion and “scam upon scam;” sorry to say, heading to “hell in a hand basket!” Now that is all so negative; and I admit even I don’t like to realize and see it so much as to how locked into this doom mankind actually is, but, the good news in what I just said recently in other writings and again now, is though this human race and civilization will implode due to all the evil straight from the “pits of hell” which permeates civilization, we know that it’s a “foregone conclusion” that “Victory” is on the way in short order, relatively speaking; because God in the “words” and reality of “Jesus Christ,” told us He would return to put an end to all this strife/turmoil, and that sin would be no more! I’m happy about that more than anything else!
This to me is what trusting in the Lord is all about! Amen.
God bless you and yours.”
Joyce, I’m very moved by your work and I’m happy to say you are not anywhere near the sort I was referring to when speaking with my sister! You are “exemplary” in all you are doing here and I pray God continues to guide you to do His will here or anywhere you “apply your expertise” because the world is in sorry shape like never before, and humanity needs the “special souls” out there “like you with the wisdom, courage and power of faith in God” to carry on making a difference.
I think I may have mentioned before and if not I am now how I will hope at the right moment that I will be inspired and directed to add something of substantive value to your efforts here if I can; because I would be honored!
Side note; for some reason I thought about you today wondering what you are doing on this site and how I would have to check today to catch up and then, lo and behold, I got online and saw your notice in my Word Press cue, and, I swear to God the very first new notification! And if you get a chance to ever review some of my older posting you can get to see how these little “dots being connected” or events mean so much to me and I know where they are coming from; with no doubt in my mind or heart! We are truly all in the hands of God!

I like this blog posting a whole lot! I have many of Denzel’s films and always enjoyed watching him work in them not only because I met him on a film set, a great job experience, but even aside from his smooth skill and capability to act on cue so authentically which I admire, for me it is moreover; for his real genuine Christian faith!
He did grow up on some mean streets and as he put it many guys he was around during that period of his life went down the tubes with drug addiction and crime many did hard time! He was blessed to have two wonderful parents and got grounded in life early with a great foundation his Dad being a Minister and his Mom being a great Mother and having her own salon being a very ambitious person herself, I can see gave him much to appreciate and be proud of but it was Jesus that gave him his greatest strength of moral integrity and purpose. I can personally identify with him saying how God protected him or how prayers made the difference; because that has been my experience for sure, knowing I was going to die at least a few times if not for some act of God or Divine Intervention! And not just my prayers helped, I know the prayers of others especially, in my case my Mother, Father and Grandmother made a world of difference in my being given graces when really needed! My Dad too was always a devout man of God, bringing Him into conversations we had when I was growing up; that helped me immensely!
I actually wrote what you just read to this point before I finished reading this article completely, because I got inspired and busy writing quickly what I was thinking and feeling so spontaneously; and then I just came upon what Denzel said here, about what his Mom told him, “Boy, you don’t know how many people have been praying for you.” There you go; this is witness of God speaking to us right now! He is saying right now, “you sure can believe in the power of prayer,” as my Mother always said, “it’s the most powerful weapon there is to guide and protect us!”
It all came together for Denzel going to a private military academy that his Mom placed him in after his parents split up, but, Denzel said that joining the Boys Club in Mount Vernon is where the biggest change or epiphany occurred in his life; when a coach there told him and the other boys “you can be something, it’s really up to you!” Denzel got a confidence from that one comment and started believing, “hey yea I can be something or someone, I can be what I want to be.” He is a shining example of how the youth in America and beyond don’t have to be wasted or lost to the inner city ruckus or turmoil; if they get some insight and good input from Christian minded adults, who project that good to them in those formative years, just the way that coach did! Denzel was given a strong message of Hope, all of it from God, but, coming through some really good people, I believe it ignited in him so positively, that he made up his mind to “work hard and make himself something that Jesus would be proud of,” and; I’m sure He is.
God bless y’all.
Acclaimed actor, director and producer Denzel Washington recently appeared on Instagram Live for a conversation with his friend, A.R. Bernard, the lead pastor of the Christian Cultural Center in Brooklyn, New York. During the discussion, Washington shared examples of the grace God has shown him over the years, especially through his family andthe Holy Spirit.
“It was a supernatural, if not once in a lifetime experience…that I couldn’t completely understand at the time,” said Washington, describing a moment in the early 80s when he was filled with the Holy Ghost. The actor, who is known for movies such asMalcolm X,Glory, andTraining Day, had decided to visit the West Angeles Church of God in Christ (COGIC) in Los Angeles. When the church gave an altar call, he thought, “This time, I’m just going to go…

“Whoever follows me will not walk in darkness, but will have the light of life”
Why Did Jesus Say ‘I am the Way, the Truth and the Life’ in John 14:6?
I know my Faith and have always had it since I was a boy very passionately with many times a sensitivity that would bring me to tears. I would read Holy Scriptures to members of my family growing up feeling an affinity to the words on the page and seemed to know clearly what was being said when others around me didn’t quite understand, so I would explain it to them at which time they would be elated and say something like, now I see!
I remember a time as a young boy of about 9 years of age when walking through my neighborhood on my way from the playground nearby these two older boys by a few years who were twins approached me. We knew each other from the neighborhood but usually I would be with my friends; and so probably being alone and more vulnerable these boys thought it might be fun to pick on me and began calling me names and saying they were going to kick my butt. I remember having that same day thought about Jesus and how Christmas was coming in a couple of months, so suddenly with no fear and a complete calm I said, “why do you want to do that to me, do I ever bother you or have I ever said anything bad about you to anyone.” They looked at each other seeming surprised I think because they were expecting that I would be scared and run, or yell out mommy perhaps, like some other more vulnerable kids may have when these guys went looking to start something in the past. They said, “so Christmas is coming yea, OK;” then I said, “well Christmas is for Jesus we are supposed to love Him the Savior and He wants us to get along and love each other too, it says in the Bible!” They both took on a new appearance one of being a bit puzzled and surprised, almost a look of feeling guilty as I think back, when I then said, “we should be friends and if we show Jesus we are then Christmas will be so much better for us all, and we all get gifts so it’s what we should do to show Jesus we are good.” These two young guys suddenly said, “Hey, yea we didn’t mean it, so we can be friends if you want!” I said, “sure and we had to walk a short distance together before we turn our separate ways home, but, as we walked we became friends and Ronnie and Russell told me they will see me again, to which I said, “OK see you later.” They never even ever looked at me mean or with indifference again and they were two toughies of the hood actually. I think the Holy Spirit of God helped and changed a possible bad outcome.
As my life progressed through my teens and twenties I had much more profound experiences one where I almost drowned trying to surf just after a hurricane had passed by the area where I lived. The biggest waves were always at a notorious point along the shoreline, known for huge surf. I was only a mediocre surfer and should not have even been attempting this wild surf escapade, but some awesome proficient surfers I knew were all going, so I figured I should be like the rest of the guys. But that was a big mistake because after a struggle to even get out past the break water around the point and the huge swells, I then saw a set of three huge waves coming at me and nobody else was near by the spot I was paddling. I heard the roar of the forces of nature below as rocks or small boulders were being caught up in the tumultuous current swirling below me, and so though I knew I was into something over my head both literally and figuratively I just turned toward shore and held on as the surfboard shot upward in a flash at least a few stories to the top of a huge wave that was beginning to crest and curl over me and all I did was pearl under getting caught up in the rip tide and undertow for what seemed too long, but, rather than freak out and struggle which I sensed would be the end I knew I better just stay calm and pray which I did. I asked Jesus to please don’t let me die and I’m sorry I did this, so I kept holding my breath; then suddenly I was at the surface much farther out to sea than I had been when I went under.
Suddenly there was this guy as if out of nowhere surfing right at me and cut out of that huge swell, as I tried to dive below it to not get pounded upon. When I resurfaced this guy was still nearby and said grab hold of his board which I did and we both were paddling together toward shore. Then as we were getting a lot closer he said, “OK you can make it now,” at which time I started to swim the last 50 yards or so, then quickly I could suddenly touch the bottom with my feet and ran up on the beach, but as I did turned back to see that guy and then collapsed exhausted and hit the sand with my face and said “thank you Jesus and I won’t ever do this again,” lifting my head to look for the guy surfing again that helped me, he was nowhere to be seen, and off in the distance I saw a few others along with a friend still out in some surf. I know God saved me that day and I could go on and explain how a few other major things were happening to me out on the West Coast in California or in Chicago each time in those cases something very bad was going to happen, if not killing me at least injuring me very severely. Even another incidence once when a large aircraft distributor Thrust Ball Bearing unit that I was trying to separate the inner and outer races from each other to free up all of the steel balls inside under a massive hydraulic press. This was on my lunch hour break at work on a Navy Base when nobody was around, because this wasn’t a job duty so I was breaking the rules; it suddenly exploded under the enormous pressure releasing all of the stored up potential energy and fragments along with all those steel balls I so much wanted were now in a split second released and flew out with so much force in every direction it was like a grenade had just exploded, and though pieces stuck in a nearby cinder-block wall every fragment missed me thank God, because if they hadn’t I would probably have been killed.
Now I say all of this, only because I know after many years that when I see horrible accidents or bad things happen to many people in this world maiming them or ending their lives, which I did see a lot more than I wanted to when working as a news shooter; I say “there but for the grace of God go I.” I was spared many times and I know it, but, my job is to do something with it, so perhaps I accomplish what it is God still wants me to do. Part of that might be to tell all of you this, so each one of you will be more sensible and cautious than I had been and more importantly you will confide in the Lord at all times, seeking His direct input in all you do, so as not to make a big plunder while at the same time increase your faith; because you truly believe, and want to grow in your love for Him!
“Trust in the LORD with all your heart, and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge Him, And He shall direct your paths.” Proverbs 3:5-6
Now what follows I know you will find very helpful and interesting if you haven’t seen any of this before, and perhaps if you have it would be best to share it with others you care about and love; or maybe even an enemy; and better yet perhaps a person who needs to wake up.
Why Did Jesus Say ‘I am the Way, the Truth and the Life’ in John 14:6?
In John 14, Jesus said to His disciples, “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me. If you really know me, you will know my Father as well. From now on, you do know him and have seen him.”

Jesus: The Way to the Father
“Thomas said to him, “Lord, we don’t know where you are going, so how can we know the way?” Jesus answered, “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me. If you really know me, you will know my Father as well. From now on, you do know him and have seen him.” Philip said, “Lord, show us the Father and that will be enough for us.” Jesus answered: “Don’t you know me, Philip, even after I have been among you such a long time? Anyone who has seen me has seen the Father. How can you say, ‘Show us the Father’? Don’t you believe that I am in the Father, and that the Father is in me? The words I say to you I do not speak on my own authority. Rather, it is the Father, living in me, who is doing his work.” John 14:5-10
Meaning of ‘I am the Way, the Truth, and the Life’
John 14:6 – Jesus said to him, “I am the way, and the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.”
I am the Way. Our Lord takes the opportunity of this discourse about the place he was going to, and the way unto it, more fully to instruct his disciples concerning himself, saying, “I am the way.” Christ is not merely the way, as he goes before his people as an example or merely as a prophet, pointing out unto them by his doctrine the way of salvation; but he is the way of salvation itself by his obedience and sacrifice; nor is there any other. He is the way of his Father’s appointing, and which is entirely agreeable to the perfections of God, and suitable to the case and condition of sinners.
He is the way to all the blessings of the covenant of grace, and he is the right way into a Gospel church state here; no one comes rightly into a church of Christ but by faith in him; and he is the way to heaven: he is entered into it himself by his own blood, and has opened the way to it through himself for his people.
The Truth. He is not only true but truth itself: this may regard his person and character. He is the true God, and eternal life; truly and really a man; as a prophet, he taught the way of God in truth; as a priest, he is a faithful, as well as a merciful one, true and faithful to him that appointed him; and as a King, just and true are all his ways and administrations: he is the sum and substance of all the truths of the gospel.
They are all full of him and center in him; and he is the truth of all the types and shadows, promises and prophecies of the Old Testament; they have all their accomplishment in him; and he is the true way, in opposition to all false ones of man’s devising. And this phrase seems to be opposed to a notion of the Jews, that the law was the true way of life, and who confined truth to the law. They have a saying, that, “Moses and his law are the truth.”
This they make Korah and his company say in hell. That the law of Moses was the truth, is certain; but it is too strong an expression to say of Moses himself, that he was the truth; but well agrees with Christ, by whom grace and truth came in opposition to Moses, by whom came the law: but when they say, “there is no truth but the law”, they do not speak the truth. More truly do they speak, when, in answer to that question, “what is truth?” it is said, that he is the living God, and King of the world, characters that well agree with Christ.
And the Life. Christ is the author and giver of life, natural, spiritual, and eternal; or he is the way of life, or “the living way”; in opposition to the law, which was so far from being the way of life, that it was the ministration of condemnation and death.
He always, and ever will be the way; all in this way live, none ever die, and it is a way that leads to eternal life: and to conclude all the epithets in one sentence, Christ is the true way to eternal life. It is added by way of explanation of him, as the way.
Thomas enquired concerning the way (v. 5), without any apology for contradicting his Master.1. He said, “Lord, we know not whither thou goest, to what place or what state, and how can we know the way in which we must follow thee? We can neither guess at it, nor enquire it out, but must still be at a loss.’’ Christ’s testimony concerning their knowledge made them more sensible of their ignorance, and more inquisitive after further light. Thomas here shows more modesty than Peter, who thought he could follow Christ now. Peter was the more solicitous to know whither Christ went. Thomas here, though he complains that he did not know this, yet seems more solicitous to know the way.
His confession of his ignorance was commendable enough. If good men are in the dark, and know but in part, yet they are willing to own their defects. But, (2.) The cause of his ignorance was culpable. They knew not whither Christ went, because they dreamed of a temporal kingdom in external pomp and power, and doted upon this, notwithstanding what he had said again and again to the contrary. Hence it was that, when Christ spoke of going away and they’re following him, their fancy ran upon his going to some remarkable city or other, Bethlehem, or Nazareth, or Capernaum, or some of the cities of the Gentiles, as David to Hebron, there to be anointed king, and to restore the kingdom to Israel; and which way this place lay, where these castles in the air were to be built, east, west, north, or south, they could not tell, and therefore knew not the way. Thus still we think ourselves more in the dark than we need to be concerning the future state of the church, because we expect its worldly prosperity, whereas it is spiritual advancement that the promise points at. Had Thomas understood, as he might have done, that Christ was going to the invisible world, the world of spirits, to which spiritual things only have a reference, he would not have said, Lord, we do not know the way.
Now to this complaint of their ignorance, which included a desire to be taught, Christ gives a full answer, v. 6, v. 7. Thomas had enquired both whither he went and what was the way, and Christ answers both these inquiries and makes good what he had said, that they would have needed no answer if they had understood themselves aright; for they knew him, and he was the way; they knew the Father, and he was the end; and therefore, whither I go you know, and the way you know. Believe in God as the end, and in me as the way (v. 1), and you do all you should do. (1.) He speaks of himself as the way, v. 6. Dost thou not know the way? I am the way, and I only, for no man comes to the Father but by me. Great things Christ here saith of himself, showing us, The nature of his mediation: He is the way, the truth, and the life.
The Way, The Truth, The Light – Related Bible Verses
“So Jesus said to the Twelve, “Do you want to go away as well?” Simon Peter answered him, “Lord, to whom shall we go? You have the words of eternal life, and we have believed, and have come to know, that you are the Holy One of God.” Jesus answered them, “Did I not choose you, the Twelve? And yet one of you is a devil.” He spoke of Judas the son of Simon Iscariot, for he, one of the Twelve, was going to betray him.” John 6:67-71
“For God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life. For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but in order that the world might be saved through him. Whoever believes in him is not condemned, but whoever does not believe is condemned already, because he has not believed in the name of the only Son of God. And this is the judgment: the light has come into the world, and people loved the darkness rather than the light because their works were evil.”John 3:16-19
“If he called them gods to whom the word of God came—and Scripture cannot be broken” John 10:35
Again Jesus spoke to them, saying, “I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will not walk in darkness, but will have the light of life.” John 8:12
The Word Became Flesh
“In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. He was with God in the beginning. Through him all things were made; without him nothing was made that has been made. In him was life, and that life was the light of all mankind. The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it. There was a man sent from God whose name was John. He came as a witness to testify concerning that light, so that through him all might believe. He himself was not the light; he came only as a witness to the light. The true light that gives light to everyone was coming into the world. He was in the world, and though the world was made through him, the world did not recognize him. He came to that which was his own, but his own did not receive him. Yet to all who did receive him, to those who believed in his name, he gave the right to become children of God— children born not of natural descent, nor of human decision or a husband’s will, but born of God. The Word became flesh and made his dwelling among us. We have seen his glory, the glory of the one and only Son, who came from the Father, full of grace and truth. (John testified concerning him. He cried out, saying, “This is the one I spoke about when I said, ‘He who comes after me has surpassed me because he was before me.’ ”) Out of his fullness we have all received grace in place of grace already given. For the law was given through Moses; grace and truth came through Jesus Christ. No one has ever seen God, but the one and only Son, who is himself God and is in closest relationship with the Father, has made him known.” John 1:1-18
“Let not your hearts be troubled. Believe in God; believe also in me.”John 14:1
What Did Jesus Mean by “The Way, the Truth, and the Life” in John 14?
As transcribed from the video above, Jaye Martin gives her explanation as to what Jesus meant when He described Himself as “the way, the truth, and the life”:
In John 14:6, Jesus says, “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except by me.” That’s a very difficult passage because so many people see that we must not be open if we don’t accept all these people who come to God in other ways. But it’s very clear here, Jesus says, and we must go through Christ to get to God. And so, we see that he was truth. And sometimes it’s hard to communicate the truth because there’s something that we want to gloss over. I would say for each of us, we need to say, am I communicating truth, am I living out with integrity what I know to be true? Because I believe if I honestly lived out truth every day, other people would see that. And sometimes it’s hard to explain it to people, but I think when they ask us, we need to say, Jesus says he is the only way. And that’s great news because all they have to do is say, okay, open my eyes, Lord. And I want to see that. And that’s the truth of the gospel.

I brother Lawrence in Christ Jesus say, that yes the Truth does hurt at times in life and we darn well deserve it to hurt; but, think about what Jesus felt and how much Hurt He went through for every single human being and every sin from tiny ones to the most horrid in the universe out of His eternal, never-ending incomprehensible love for us! We don’t hurt; we are stubborn and thick at times, but we are not hurting, take my word for this and Trust this TRUTH; Trust in the Lord. You pray on anything I have said along with all this presentation offers, and I know if you do it with a genuine humble and gentle supplication from your heart speaking to Jesus Christ, you are going to see the Truth without a doubt; which is going to Set You Free! It will make you cry, I know because I do, but, that is a sign too, that Jesus is with you and He doesn’t want you to leave Him or be lost; He loves you and wants you to be with Him eternally in heaven. Amen.
I do hope you’re still with me here and please get ready to blow your mind and see Jesus Christ, even if not in the flesh in person; because the Second Coming is approaching for sure, but, this is a glimpse of what our Savior looks like for real, like when he was here on Earth over 2000 years ago! I cry when I look at this and I felt the same way as I was watching the above 2 minute video presentation with that music at the start, like an important message for my whole reason for living was coming; which hit me deep in my heart for some reason. God bless you. Amen.

Pope Benedict XVI Believes In The Shroud’s Authenticity
All the way back to 2010 the Pope at the time Benedict XVI knew by faith and his deep prayer on the matter of the Shroud’s authenticity that it was the burial cloth of Jesus. Now with the gifts and advanced scientific tools that God has provided mankind we have the conclusive final proof presented in this presentation! I believe that without Jesus actually being here right now as in the Second Coming; that even then there would be multitudes who resist the Truth, and would not accept Him!~ But, God has given mankind enough time and incentives like this miraculous piece of the actual history; that Jesus Christ is our Savior and that all He said is truth as He is Truth! The rest is up to us, by Faith in Him and all He has taught us; to accept or deny Him! Amen.
Pope all but endorses Shroud of Turin baltimoresun.com By Matthew Hay Brown May 03, 2010 at 1:00 AM
Pope Benedict XVI all but gave an outright endorsement of the authenticity of the Shroud of Turin on Sunday, calling the cloth that some believe is Christ’s burial shroud an icon “written with the blood” of a crucified man.
During a visit to the Shroud in the northern Italian city of Turin, Benedict didn’t raise the scientific questions that surround the linen and whether it might be a medieval forgery. Instead, he delivered a powerful meditation on the faith that holds that the Shroud is indeed Christ’s burial cloth.
“This is a burial cloth that wrapped the remains of a crucified man in full correspondence with what the Gospels tell us of Jesus,” Benedict said. He said the relic — one of the most important in Christianity — should be seen as a photographic document of the “darkest mystery of faith” — that of Christ’s crucifixion and resurrection.
The 14-foot-long, 3.5-foot-wide (4.3-meter-long, 1 meter-wide) cloth has gone on public display for the first time since the 2000 Millennium celebrations and a subsequent 2002 restoration. Kept in a bulletproof, climate-controlled case in Turin’s cathedral, it has drawn nearly 2 million reservations from pilgrims and tourists eager to spend three to five minutes viewing it.
The Shroud bears the figure of a crucified man, complete with blood seeping from his hands and feet, and believers say Christ’s image was recorded on the linen’s fibers at the time of his resurrection.
Benedict focused in his meditation on the message that the blood stains conveyed, saying the Shroud was “an icon written in blood; the blood of a man who was whipped, crowned with thorns, crucified and injured on his right side.”
“The image on the Shroud is that of a dead man, but the blood speaks of his life. Each trace of blood speaks of love and life,” Benedict said. The Vatican to date had tiptoed around the issue of just what the Shroud of Turin is, calling it a powerful symbol of Christ’s suffering while making no claim to its authenticity. Benedict’s meditation — delivered after he prayed as if in a trance before the shroud — appeared to imply that in the end it doesn’t matter what science says about its authenticity.
“The Shroud of Turin offers us the image of how his body lay in the tomb during that time (of death); time that was brief chronologically — about a day and a half — but was immense, infinite in its value and significance,” Benedict said.
A Vatican researcher Barbara Frale said late last year that faint writing on the linen, which she studied through computer-enhanced images, proves the cloth was used to wrap Jesus’ body after his crucifixion.
Barbara Frale is an Italian paleographer at the Vatican Secret Archives. Frale has written books about the Templars and she has a special interest in the history of the Shroud of Turin. In September 2001, she found an authentic copy of the Chinon Parchment. Wikipedia Born:February 24, 1970, Viterbo, Italy Nationality:Italian Occupation:paleograph
In that ecstatic moment, Wiebe was finally convinced about the Resurrection
“Trinity Western University professor Phillip Wiebe [pictured] has been a convert to the power of The Shroud of Turin since 2000. That’s when the 66-year-old old Anglican academic had an epiphany upon first viewing the shroud in Turin Cathedral in northern Italy. Many Christians consider the shroud the bona fide burial cloth of a crucified Jesus.
Even though Wiebe teaches at an evangelical university where faculty are expected to adhere to traditional Christian doctrine, the member of the Church of the Ascension in Langley City admits being blown away by his first-hand experience of the Turin shroud.
In that ecstatic moment, Wiebe was finally convinced that the resurrection of Jesus Christ was an actual physical event. “I was shocked at the confidence I felt. It made me realize I had doubts about the resurrection.”
Since then, Wiebe, a philosophy professor who has written scholarly books on reported religious miracles and visions, such as God and Other Spirits, has been giving scores of presentations about the four-metre-long shroud.”

Today, on July 16, 2021, Pope Francis has dropped an atom bomb on the Catholic Church…
Enough is Enough! I’ve stated with a clear conscience for some years now that Bergoglio is a Heretic and fraud Pope and now I must add that to me there is no doubt in my heart or mind that he is the Devil’s incarnate beastly antichrist advocate on earth, as in he is directly influenced from Hell just like the now Puppet POTUS of these United States of America is also!
This past week Biden who since last year could not speak without mumbling or losing his train of thought; but while he was at a press conference speaking fluidly with not one glitch I knew why, because I’m sure he is being spoken through, now that we are in End Time; by demonic forces! They absolutely do the work of Satan on earth and if anyone can’t see this then I feel sorry for you because you are either deluded, mentally incompetent or one of the cohort minions marching to hell with them! I say some very bold and honest to goodness from my heart things, not fearing anyone or any earthly consequences; because I know for a fact from my own life experience and certain events that were thrust upon me, that this is the Time to take a Stand if there ever was one!
“By their fruits ye shall know them”: this was the message of the Gospel this past Sunday, the Seventh Sunday after Pentecost in the quondam Extraordinary Form, better known as the Mass of Ages. The fruits of this new motu proprio will be widespread confusion and increased division; temptations to bitterness, discouragement, and despair; tensions and headaches for bishops across the globe; crippling hesitations in the minds of young men who had considered becoming seminarians under the provisions of Summorum Pontificum; a large migration of Catholics to the Society of St. Pius X (for which I judge no one!) and to sedevacantist groups (which, on the contrary, is nothing other than tragic), simply because ordinary Catholics cannot—and should not have to be able to—understand how a pope can act against the Church, her tradition, and her common good as Francis does and has done, again and again. All this, and more, will Jorge Bergoglio be called upon to answer for at the dread judgment seat of Christ.”
This excerpt rings loud and clear to me and is coming from heaven! If there ever was a time for the leader of the Church to be present and accounted for to lead the flock or faithful as a good shepherd on earth as the “Vicar of Christ” this is a most unprecedented such time, with so much catastrophe and mounting turmoil being propagated more each day; but Bergoglio is off his rocker and into the unseen darkness of the netherworld; and as I see him just a shadow of a man! Here in the US General Miley just referred to Trump as Hitler; and he is a leader of the military here; but a Woke one! In the greater sense he is not Woke but he is dead to the world, humanity and God! These people like this fraud Pope and Miley along with the Biggest Puppet Biden are pushing the human race to annihilation and total evil! I will leave a link to an article I just completed that I was so compelled to write I had to stay up when I was in need of sleep badly! This is all too important I was thinking; and then your article here came into my mailbox as I was writing!
I only want to express what I truly know in my heart is crucial and most imperative now for anyone who cares and loves Jesus Christ; because that is who I do anything like this for; not myself or anyone’s approval other than God Almighty! Do what you will with me Lord; I’m in the ready to try my best for you, though I am a lowly sinner and fool; I’m only here because of you and for you! Amen. God bless you.

Seventy-six years ago, on July 16, 1945, the first atomic bomb was detonated in a lonely desert 210 miles south of Los Alamos, New Mexico. Today, on July 16, 2021, Pope Francis has dropped an atom bomb on the Catholic Church that will harm not just those who “adhere to the Latin liturgical tradition” but everyone who values continuity and coherence, reverence and beauty, our heritage and our future.
The document is dripping with condescensionand heartlessness, designed like a Swiss Army knife to equip bishops with as many ways of inconveniencing or hounding tradition-loving Catholics as possible.
As I opened upTraditionis Custodesthis morning, my eyebrows rose at the improbable title (Traditionis Perditores, “Destroyers of Tradition,” would have been far more accurate), and then my incredulity rose with each paragraph. By the time I had finished the accompanying…
I repeat this prayer now in my quiet prayerful humble supplication to my Lord Savior and Redeemer Jesus Christ, and I post it again now in hope it reaches others who surely need it! I can add nothing to this it is perfect genuine and crystalline, and I thank Saint John for the writing of this most humble prayer while in his state of prayerful inspiration it was sent to him through the Holy Ghost from heaven in order to leave this most beautiful prayer for generations until the end. Amen.

Prayer of Saint John of the Cross to Our Lady of Mount Carmel:
OMary, most holy Mother of Carmel, Virgin of virgins, sanctuary of the Blessed Trinity, mirror of angels, assured refuge of sinners! Have compassion on me in my sufferings, listen to my sighs with clemency, and appease the anger of thy Son. Amen.
Today we implore the Virgin of virgins to “appease the anger of thy Son.” St. John of the Cross, who composed the above prayer, lived in the late 15th century. Now, think of how much more Jesus is offended with our world today! Abortion allowed up until birth, rampant contraception and sexual immorality, unnatural same sex unions, gender confusion, domestic violence, atheism, demonic activity, worshiping false gods, and the breakdown of the domestic family, not to mention Catholics receiving Holy Communion in the state of mortal sin. Let us pray this litany, begging Our Lady…

Oh this is a good article and totally relevant point right now about Swift; don’t get me going I could have quite a spiel on her; Taylor who is the farthest away from being swift in my opinion than so many artists or even young women in general!
Now that we’re in a time of great culture shock and outright denigration of anything sacred this person reminds me of all that is wrong in society and the loss of worthy moral standards and actual genuine virtue; which we have to look back to a distant time when many things were held sacred to the human race, but that is pretty much “gone with the wind” and now we have the screeching banshees like Taylor from hell!
Here is something I just recently wrote about her which will match up at least with my expectations about her, and maybe yours after reading this two for the price of one article! Here is a portion of the long article I wrote which you can check out by following the link provided!
Lawrence Morra III
Excerpt from: Culture Shock on the Highway to Hell
“By artistic imagination and vision the great renaissance masters depicted the height from which mankind had fallen in such beatific renditions that captivated the heart and soul giving the onlooker a sense of heaven.
But today these visionary arts with their generation are long past and we have been catapulted into a generation of High Tech bombastic Helter-Skelter visions of cold harsh technology with all of its artificiality and bleakness.
That ancient generation was a time of the uplifting of humanity, a time when certainly the majority of citizens would see the destruction of the unborn as clearly diabolical and wicked.
This wayward generation that we are in in now has flipped that idea on its head and even flipped out, to where life, even the innocent unborn is now denigrated as being just fetal tissue; from a fetus not a human being, because until it is a born breathing baby one can hold; it’s not a human being. How preposterous and evil an idea! What about it’s God given soul! Surely those that see it as just tissue don’t believe in any soul or God Almighty!
A Republican Senator triggered leftists with one statement about Taylor Swift
July 13, 2021
The entertainment industry has gone full “woke.”
Pop singers have become some of the worst mouthpieces for the establishment.
And a Republican Senator triggered leftists with one statement about Taylor Swift.
Pop diva Taylor Swift had been bullied for years to be more vocal about politics.
Swift finally spoke up in 2018 and parroted standard Democrat talking points.
She endorsed former Tennessee governor Phil Bredesen for Senate in his race against Republican Marsha Blackburn, but Swift’s endorsement did nothing – Blackburn crushed Bredesen by ten points.
Swift also called Blackburn “Trump with a wig.”
Now Blackburn is hitting back at Swift’s promotion of leftist ideas.
In a recent interview, Blackburn said:
“Taylor Swift came after me in my 2018 campaign . . . But Taylor Swift would be the first victim of that because when you look at Marxist socialistic societies, they do not allow women to dress or sing or be on stage or to entertain or the type music she would have. They don’t allow protection of private intellectual property rights.”
This triggered a deluge of criticism from many leftists.
The most shameless attack came from Never-Trump neocon Matthew Dowd:
I along with most Americans would much prefer to have @taylorswift13 as a United States senator than @MarshaBlackburn What about you?
But lost in the Left’s furor is the fact that Blackburn is generally correct.
In a socialist society, free speech rights would be nonexistent.
Russian comedian Yakov Smirnoff explained what it was like performing standup in the Soviet Union.
Smirnoff said:
“Yep. There’s a Department of Jokes. Actually, the Ministry of Culture has a very big department of humor. I’m serious now. Once a year they censor your material, and then you have to stay with what they have approved. You can’t improvise or do anything like that. You write out your material and mail it to them, and they send it back to you with corrections. After that, you stay with it for a year.”
The same goes for musicians in Cuba who have to practice in secret.
The Chinese Communist Party pressured actor John Cena to apologize for acknowledging the independence of Taiwan – it’s not difficult to imagine what happens to dissident artists within the country.
The Left can ridicule Blackburn all they want, but her larger point was accurate.

“we do not know where You are going, so how can we know the way?”
I have had some profound personal, what might be called miraculous and awe inspiring experiences that God wanted me to have so that I would see the truth about this world more readily, and as my life went on I would and was able to serve His will and purposes better! These experiences and insights are far more important than all the books or study I did in my college days studying many religions even those you mentioned and world history as well as literature; most of those things man-made or contrivances.
We are here by God and for God only because He has love and mercy beyond our frail abilities to comprehend the unknown and total Truth which there is, and we have only scratched the surface of all that exists in the seen and unseen worlds. We are absolutely mere babes in the woods! Human beings today are some of the most arrogant and contemptuous fools that have ever called themselves people, thinking themselves ultra-powerful; or perhaps now able to be their own gods, when they are mere rags and shit in the wind with that kind of thinking, so high and mighty and a chip on the shoulder; without having the all-knowing and actual God/Creator/Father of all front and center in their lives.
Many have no actual ability, being hardened; to be totally humble before God and His creation! I suggest you recheck all of your past reasoning as to why you arrived where you are now because I can assure you now with love and hope in my heart that you will see the truth and error of your ways in order to step onto the “sure path” to your hope and “salvation;” so you won’t be lost and end up in a very sad and bad way at the end of your time here on earth!
I mean it, I’m saying this with love and I would be very sad to see you lose this one opportunity that God blessed you with when it’s not that difficult to understand; the right attitude and true humility will bring Him into your heart and soul! I can explain many more facets of my own journey another time, but this I hope serves as a boost to your own insight and faith in the One True Living God Almighty who loves you more than you know and it could turn out to be more than you will ever get to know; if you lose your way!
This statement from God via Jesus Christ is the crux of anything we are or should be striving for while alive in this flesh body and life! The subsequent Scriptures are quite supportive of this reality.
Jesus Christ said: “I am the way the truth and the life; no one comes unto the Father but through Me!” John 14:6
5“Lord,” said Thomas, “we do not know where You are going, so how can we know the way?” 6 Jesus answered, “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me. 7If you had known Me, you would know My Father as well. From now on you do know Him and have seen Him.”…
John 1:14
“The Word became flesh and made His dwelling among us. We have seen His glory, the glory of the one and only Son from the Father, full of grace and truth.”
John 1:17
“For the law was given through Moses; grace and truth came through Jesus Christ.”
John 11:25
Jesus said to her, “I am the resurrection and the life. Whoever believes in Me will live, even though he dies.”
So we have a choice by His statements, we can look at Him as just some prophet or even madman that will be inconsequential in the sum total of “our personal” life journey! Or maybe we better take Him dead serious so we won’t miss the boat and end up stranded in a place much worse than this messed up world we’re in right now! Is that a bridge too far to cross? To have faith in something you don’t know for sure is on the other side of that bridge, and can’t prove in worldly terms with some piece of physical evidence which even in those cases might be an optical delusion on our part; so do we take this insurance policy and go with it in terms of all the substantive historical context and supporting data to protect our personal journey, or toss caution to the wind and say to hell with that; I’ll go it alone without the silly insurance policy! But, hell you go and buy auto insurance and toss all that bread into the bin for the rich and greedy even if you haven’t had a fender bender in 30 or more years and maybe never! Add that cost up and now compare your life and soul to what loss you could sustain at the end of your road without that policy in hand; saying I did trust and had hope in You!
I see where science is beneficial to try understanding what is going on here or what can God be and mean by all these messages over thousands of years of human history. Then I must put science aside as it limits and will not really provide enough of the absolute truth that can only come directly from God Himself who is all knowing and seeing so that is why He came as Jesus Christ to fulfill the New and Everlasting Covenant with us His children of God, while communicating with us on our level and in a way so we can see plainly what is going on here.
He didn’t give us basic fundamental truths to confuse us but rather to say look at these basic principles I impart to you and then in your deepest heart hold them dear, while growing your belief and faith in Me as your True Everlasting God Almighty as I will speak to you via the Holy Ghost and I God will deliver you from all failure and loss to everlasting Life in my Eternal Kingdom!
The star-forming region NGC 3603 – seen here in the latest Hubble Space Telescope image – contains one of the most impressive massive young star clusters in the Milky Way. Bathed in gas and dust the cluster formed in a huge rush of star formation thought to have occurred around a million years ago. The hot blue stars at the core are responsible for carving out a huge cavity in the gas seen to the right of the star cluster in NGC 3603’s centre.
Here is what a great man of science that I respect had to say in touching on the matter of God and faith over science or man’s own thinking!
A man we all know was a remarkably brilliant person who I think even though his head was immersed in the world of science and theories he had a keen insight into God’s presence and reality like few people can achieve with our limiting cognitive faculties.; and his respect and love of God was present and genuine; therefore we can say God will judge accordingly, I know for myself Einstein was a good and respectful soul in this world, so I do wish him well. What follows I was writing about back at this mentioned date.

Einstein on Self and the Mystical
“The most beautiful and most profound experience is the sensation of the mystical. It is the sower of all true science. He to whom this emotion is a stranger, who can no longer wonder and stand rapt in awe, is as good as dead. To know that what is impenetrable to us really exists, manifesting itself as the highest wisdom and the most radiant beauty which our dull faculties can comprehend only in their primitive forms – this knowledge, this feeling is at the centre of true religiousness.”
-Albert Einstein – “The Merging of Spirit and Science”
This man the father of physics had said a few great one liners but two that stand out are these. He referred to God as the “Old One.” He speaking to other physicists was known to have said during a discussion about the Big Bang Theory in which one scientist said that with enough random events occurring in this pre-millisecond before it happened eureka the right combination occurred; Einstein just plainly said; “God doesn’t roll dice.”
I leave now with this perfect prayer for any who seek God and understand what I’ve said here.
“Trust in the LORD with all your heart, and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge Him, And He shall direct your paths.” Proverbs 3:5-6
We all must remember that to the imperfect human being, it is a great temptation to play God or try to establish some manmade system of belief or ideology to shape the world and life into that particular view or perspective. But there is only one perspective that matters which is God’s and He did address this difficulty very clearly when He came as the Sacred all loving heart into this fallen world to lead the way for any who will believe in Him, Jesus Christ the Son of God and God Himself, to redeem our souls from Sin and all evil which this world is plagued with and will never cease until God ends it.
Through all of the true attested and witnessed written prophecies from God we have the roadmap to heaven, but, we must accept Jesus Christ and follow Him nothing else will do!
