This article is so magnificent and timely for any of us who are seeing this world falling apart before our eyes with evil being placed on a pedestal for all to see and worship; the “Antichrist Movement” in full orchestration as I referred to it years ago was coming; now its here! I didn’t really want to believe it would continue on getting this ugly and that so many human beings would become wicked minions of hell, some of them even directly attacked me and my life; as they living in a way that is so vile and hideous, I really can’t bear to look sometimes, feeling like I’m done; I don’t want to be here anymore at all! I see how there is no way this world will retract from the demonic evil that is in motion all around us and must be consumed in fire to end it! There are too many humans that are the living dead, the Puppet POTUS for a prime example and many others that are demonic ghouls a parody of what a human being should be! Just the other day while the V.P. of the USA Harris was in Central America she was gyrating around doing some kind of Banshee dance after handing out cookies with her image on them to a crowd of idiots and pagans, while the look in her eyes told me plenty; that is a top executive of this Nation under God? She is demonically influenced and I do think possessed as her great grandfather is in hell I’m sure for being the evil scoundrel he was the prolific slave trader and selling or trading children as chattel; the notorious Hamilton Brown, so I’m sure there is something straight from hell tapping into this crazy nut case we have as a V.P. who has never come out and dismissed that family past and she should have being a public figure in such a high position now but instead she does the opposite almost laughing about the evil and condoning more; so she is evil. That is why Biden and her are all for their open border insanity allowing human trafficking to increase exponentially since January!

Jude 1:17-22
17But you, beloved, remember what was foretold by the apostles of our Lord Jesus Christ 18when they said to you, “In the last times there will be scoffers who will follow after their own ungodly desires.” 19These are the ones who cause divisions, who are worldly and devoid of the Spirit.

20But you, beloved, by building yourselves up in your most holy faith and praying in the Holy Spirit, 21keep yourselves in the love of God as you await the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ to bring you eternal life.

22And indeed, have mercy on those who doubt; 23save others by snatching them from the fire; and to still others show mercy tempered with fear, hating even the clothing stained by the flesh.

In Luke 21 Jesus preaches a sermon about the End of the World. The end of the world is easier to comprehend when we can compare it to the world around us. That is what Jesus does. He points to things they knew and said amplify that, multiply that sort of thing exponentially, then you will understand what is coming. Basically Jesus describes a Global Final Holocaust not only of Jews and Christians but of all humans; and I know the vaccines are a huge part of this process sent from hell!

“In the Great Tribulation 2 ½ million die every day for 42 months. In Auschwitz less than a thousand died each day. That means 2500x as many people die every day. Or to put it in Auschwitz terms—the number of people that died every day at Auschwitz will die every 30 seconds in the Great Tribulation! Or in other terms living on earth will be like living in an Auschwitz death camp—and in death toll there will be the equivalent of an Auschwitz Holocaust twice a day for 42 months!” (Thanks to crosswalk)

There will be religious deception (Luke 21:8). “Be not deceived!” is Christ’s admonition to us, and we must take that to heart.

Luke 21:8 And He said: “Take heed that you not be deceived. For many will come in My name, saying, ‘I am He,’ and, ‘The time has drawn near.’ Therefore do not go after them.”
“One third of all vegetation will be burned up. All grass, every tree, everything green will be destroyed”
Revelation 8:7-12
“7 The first angel sounded his trumpet, and there came hail and fire mixed with blood, and it was hurled down on the earth. A third of the earth was burned up, a third of the trees were burned up, and all the green grass was burned up.
8 The second angel sounded his trumpet, and something like a huge mountain, all ablaze, was thrown into the sea. A third of the sea turned into blood, 9 a third of the living creatures in the sea died, and a third of the ships were destroyed.
10 The third angel sounded his trumpet, and a great star, blazing like a torch, fell from the sky on a third of the rivers and on the springs of water— 11 the name of the star is Wormwood.[a] A third of the waters turned bitter, and many people died from the waters that had become bitter.
12 The fourth angel sounded his trumpet, and a third of the sun was struck, a third of the moon, and a third of the stars, so that a third of them turned dark. A third of the day was without light, and also a third of the night.”

Revelation 9:3-6
“3 And out of the smoke locusts came down on the earth and were given power like that of scorpions of the earth.
4 They were told not to harm the grass of the earth or any plant or tree, but only those people who did not have the seal of God on their foreheads.
5 They were not allowed to kill them but only to torture them for five months. And the agony they suffered was like that of the sting of a scorpion when it strikes.
6 During those days people will seek death but will not find it; they will long to die, but death will elude them.”

I’m sorry to you God and Lord Jesus as well to be saying these things because things are becoming so grotesque and hopeless and I don’t want to be a part of any of it! But I speak out because I know I must do my part to not ignore the obvious as so many do or try to do deluding themselves and living for the ways of the world!

I had just written the other day these words that in response to the CP&S article from which this following quotation came.

Then this passage here jumps out to me as being so much like my dad’s way of looking at life in general and our proper duty or service to our Lord God who has given all of us this great opportunity! Because even though we are in a fallen state we have all the equipment or accommodation to rise above all of the imperfection of this fallen nature and truly be children of God; in perfect harmony with His Glory and Absolute Perfection in Heaven!
“This is also called by St. Thérèse of Lisieux “the little way”, a loving commitment to the tasks and to the people we meet in our everyday lives. She took her assignments in the convent of Lisieux as ways of manifesting her love for God and for others.”
Why else would God Himself come down to this level which compared to heaven must be utter chaos and so atrocious to God and all the heavenly angels! Yet He knows us and always sees that spark and potential that He planted in our hearts and souls; we weren’t meant to be tossed out with the trash or failures, so imperfect and lost, but to be living eternally in greatness; being so happy and joyous always!

Here is the key in what this article today states so well, which I was saying the other day and have repeated for you here, about why would He God Almighty come down into this mess? This quote from today’s article sums it up to me concisely, and did jump off the page immediately!

“These three mysteries, which manifest to us the divine charity in a more special way, sum up the spirit of the feast of the Sacred Heart. It is ” His love which forced Him to put on a mortal body”.

Yes infinite, absolute and unconditional love for His own!
God bless you.

Catholicism Pure & Simple

Protestantism in the sixteenth century and Jansenism in the seventeenth had attempted to spoil one of the essential dogmas of Christianity, namely the love of God for all men.
It became necessary that the Spirit of love, which directs the Church, should by some new means counteract the spreading heresy, in order that the Spouse of Christ, far from seeing her love for Jesus diminish, should feel it always increasing.

This was made manifest in Catholic worship, which is the sure rule of our faith, by the institution of the Feast of the Sacred Heart.
Yet in early Middle-Ages, the Doctors and Saints used to see in the wound of Jesus’ side the source of all graces. St. Bonaventure invites us “to enter this wound and to dwell in the quiet of this Heart”.

The two Benedictine virgins, St. Gertrude and St. Mechtilde, in the thirteenth century, had a clear…

Yes, Yes and Yes my brother! I have only been touching upon what has popped into my view since last night and it made a beautiful circle! I’m stopping with this article now leaving the recording or record of these things that I was directed to and shown for God’s purpose and it all revolves around Prayer!

Saint John Paul II said plainly that the most powerful weapons we have above anything else on earth or in the world are from his vantage point and understanding having been the Pope of the Catholic Church at that time; the Rosary and Scapula. I believe what he was saying from my humble lowly station is that what you said here being in constant communion basically with God praying and doing it religiously from the heart; being totally devoted and believing that Jesus Christ is listening and through Him our Father in heaven to address all of our needs and concerns! Not enough people are doing this and I’m sure of it, that not enough actually believe it works or matters!

This mostly secular poisoned world in plain English is so screwed and next door to Hell. Look at it with the evil people in high places ruling the roost with their hands on earthly powers that can obliterate this planet a thousand times over and then the evil crazy MSM and proxies of these demented leaders and Satan himself are screaming at us about climate change or vaccinations! Then to top this all off there’s AOC who has projected herself as some imbecile attacking saints, martyrs and indeed the church professing to know so much or what’s better for an entire nation, even the world; who went on public record telling a bald-faced FAT LIE how she was trembling in fear on January 6th during the protest/rally in Washington and thought she was going to die while hiding behind a door, when she wasn’t even present; which she gets away with by a corrupt Congress, no one calling her out! Yet she and many others want to call the January 6th Rally event Insurrection putting good citizens in prison while BLM and Antifa burned cities down, looted, raped and murdered during the summer of 2020, while apparently all of what many in Congress on the Democrat Party side did from the start of President Trump’s term in office with their Collusion Delusion Fiasco/Fraud Partisan Political Attack upon a duly elected President wasn’t a bad thing and for citizens to protest a rigged election was so horrible! “They say that what is right is wrong and what is wrong is right; that black is white and white is black; bitter is sweet and sweet is bitter.” Isaiah 5:20 Here this person has the gall to proclaim we need a “Green New Deal!” Oh but wait, let me inject some love here and say that someone may have told Biden, hint her initials are NP and she has also been around way past her prime time, or even bedtime; that AOC leading the squad had extensive background in Mixology and used to put together some high powered cocktails; that packed a punch and made a statement, which is something NP should know plenty about! So you know liberals they must have taken that bit of information without all the Facts or Truth and figured that they could Concoct that into; AOC can rotate from her civilian job and on into Climatology! A slight difference in name and substance, while of course one of those professions requires an IQ above 60! Well, I guess those Liberals called that one wrong too! Could so many of our people in America be that out to lunch and not hearing what God is telling us? Or is it that; many just don’t give a hoot? I’m telling you this, I’m nobody; but I can see all this plain as day, or the nose on my face; and I figure everyone needs to wake up, now! The massive attack on “everything” is underway.

In a film Apocalypto while a village of Amazonian Indians were being surrounded in the middle of the night, after a big festivity, by a brutal satanic enemy to be captured, enslaved and sacrificed like chattel the lead character Jaguar Paw in the story dreams momentarily of another Indian he had just encountered the previous day in the jungle from another tribe who is yelling in his face “RUN” which was the only hope of escaping this brutality which was just beginning to unfold; Jaguar Paw woke up and saved his pregnant wife and child in the nick of time.

Likewise some of us are going to be awakened to what is happening in profound and provocative plain as day ways in order to sound the alarm and for all the faithful or those who will awaken to Jesus Christ to do so now and pray fervently daily; that is our only escape from what is coming to this world! Following the science, or fake leaders and puppet MSM will take you to hell, none of which is worth dust. Turn to God now while you still have the Opportunity which is quickly diminishing with each passing hour and day!
God bless you.

Love is not self seeking. Love cares for others. When we pray, we pray for another’s good.

Who is God searching for among believers in times of crisis like these?

“I searched for a man among them who would build up the wall and stand in the gap before Me for [the sake of] the land, that I would not destroy it, but I found no one [not even one].” (Ezekiel‬ ‭22:30‬)

God is asking believers to cry and weep for the suffering world. To intercede for the weak and oppressed in prayer. Mostly, believers are focused on physically helping which will always fall short. The other problem with physical help is the temptation of becoming a proud doer. Telling the world of your good deeds. Seeking self.

The saddest aspect of a believer is his lack of belief in God’s call to pray…

Satan: Our Constant Enemy

Biblical Prophecy is now confirmed and there will be no other great Kingdoms on Earth! America is the last one serving the Gentiles spoken of in the Holy Scriptures that would happen just as Prophesy said it would in the End Time.

“The Winds of Truth and Justice are Here!”

That was what I wrote in a relog of this previous article.

https://lawrencemorra.com/2020/06/04/prophesy-now-confirmed/

Since then nothing has happened to convince me that what was said back then in that article and for that matter anything said in all Biblical Prophecy isn’t absolutely true, and now; is unfolding right before our eyes!

Today and last evening I wrote in two other blog articles what came to me without any hesitation and flowed from my heart and soul; God is working in us if we are listening to Him! But rest assured Satan is absolutely working overtime in high places and through many of his most committed servants or slaves now, like no other time in all of history. This article is what I consider the ground zero of all satanic influence and the crystallization of Satan’s diabolical plan.

https://lawrencemorra.com/2021/06/10/the-definition-of-courage-has-shifted-since-normandy/

Here in this fine blog article is more of what we all can be thinking about and actually doing as we all move forward into what will be the most difficult and frightening time for humanity. But, if we have Jesus Christ with us in our hearts we have nothing to fear but those that should and will fear are those that have transgressed God Almighty and are in league with Satan. They are DOOMED for Eternity and there is no denying it or escaping it!

https://lawrencemorra.com/2021/06/09/the-simple-path-to-holiness-the-careful-performance-of-our-daily-duties/

Let’s all pray fervently from deep in our hearts on bent knee each day to our Lord and Savior because He is our Rock of the Ages and Good Shepherd who is going to deliver us from all sin, iniquity and from this ever increasingly crooked world, where Satan sets up his rule over his vast multitude of minions.

I close with these words I offered from the Holy Spirit back in May at this same site that are obviously further confirmed not by me at all, but by the voice within that comes from our Lord by His Holy Ghost.

This is another sad but true escalation of the hatred and evil being directed at Israel by Hamas which we know is a Terrorist Proxy for Iran.
We need to pray devoutly to God Almighty through our Savior Jesus Christ! “This is prophecy unfolding” in our time and with the evil that has infested our US government we know that everything will get much worse. These are a most dire of times we all face so pray for our brothers and sisters in Israel as I know many of them care about we Americans and pray for us as well.
God bless you.

Make no mistake, Israel won the war because the hand of God moved in her favor! They also followed Biblical principle. What do these verses teach you about preparing for battle:

Indeed, the best chance of success in war is to have a plan. One of the first strategies in planning is to know your enemy! Israeli intelligence sent spies into Egypt to understand the enemy and their plans, and we are wise to employ the same strategy to escape the snares of the devil!

Ah yes Ben, so good of you not to let this slip by and bring it to the fore in this poignant fashion, to point out if nothing else a stark reality!

“The next day, however, Biden did tweet something noteworthy about bravery: “To transgender Americans across the country—especially the young people who are so brave—I want you to know your President has your back.”

I’ve seen and already anticipate what other atrocities are to come because of the evil, yes I’m calling a spade a spade here, the evil that occupies the White House and has tentacles through our government.

I’ve used the proper title when referring to that monstrosity of a man when I call him out as being America’s own “Man of Perdition!” This 48 year thoroughly Crooked Politically Organized Crime Syndicate Professional Racketeer Politician has degraded and insulted all those who came before him to protect and serve America, while simultaneously spitting in God’s eye as it where! And “We Citizens” that value the great sacrifices of those who came before us to give us our freedom with their blood; should call this “Traitor Joe” out for what he is! This lying, wicked, despicable man has been in bed with the CCP for decades illegally wheeling and dealing for his own benefit while trashing those fallen and wonderful souls of the past that belong to God and are in heaven; while this man Joe Biden belongs to Satan whom he serves! Make no mistake about it, I’ve had my own personal dealings with evil that I had to take head-on over some years now and I entrust every drop of my blood body and soul in me, to God Almighty; knowing that I see into things clearly for doing so.

This wicked man is working with Obama and others to tear apart and destroy this One Nation under God along with anything that is held dear or sacred; this “creep is an antichrist” all the way! God has special plans for him and the “Winds of Truth and Justice” are coming!

Back on December 8, 2019 I was well aware of what was brewing with this man and Nancy Pelosi, so I want to include the link to that long winded article for you to review if you are so inclined. I hope that now many of us who are speaking and saying it like it is can rally the “True American” in all of us who do care and know that this all can go one of two ways, which means we all have our work cut out for us, and now is the time to speak out and act in accordance with “God Almighty’s will.”

Last Sunday marked the 77th anniversary of the D-Day invasion of Normandy. On that day, Operation Overlord began, launching the Allied invasion of Europe that would spell the beginning of the end of the Nazi regime. At least 4,400 Allied troops died in the Normandy landings, and another 10,000 were wounded.

As the invasion started, President Franklin Delano Roosevelt took to the radio airwaves to ask Americans to join him in prayer: “Almighty God: Our sons, pride of our Nation, this day have set upon a mighty endeavor, a struggle to preserve our Republic, our religion, and our civilization, and to set free a suffering humanity … let our hearts be stout, to wait out the long travail, to bear sorrows…

Thank you Kathleen for another tremendously valuable article containing wonderful insights into God’s Grace and Mercy which paves the way to true Salvation and fulfillment! As I began to write here in response I felt more compelled to go on to a point that would appear more complete, so I actually spent more time than I really had or anticipated; having to wake early, but I know something from above helped me to push on to that proper point of departure to sleep! But what follows came together as is 1, 2, 3 out of thin air without any planning; like I had some duty before me. These words here I added afterwards when I finished with the reblog. I thank our Lord for it all.

“There are no short ways to perfection, but there are sure ones.” This reminded me so much of what my dad would always tell me as a young lad with chores to do. Always be willing to tackle the task or job at hand and do your best, don’t be looking for short cuts or some way to get out of doing it and not live up to your responsibilities or obligations in life!

Then this passage here jumps out to me as being so much like my dad’s way of looking at life in general and our proper duty or service to our Lord God who has given all of us this great opportunity! Because even though we are in a fallen state we have all the equipment or accommodation to rise above all of the imperfection of this fallen nature and truly be children of God; in perfect harmony with His Glory and Absolute Perfection in Heaven!

“This is also called by St. Thérèse of Lisieux “the little way”, a loving commitment to the tasks and to the people we meet in our everyday lives. She took her assignments in the convent of Lisieux as ways of manifesting her love for God and for others.”

Why else would God Himself come down to this level which compared to heaven must be utter chaos and so atrocious to God and all the heavenly angels! Yet He knows us and always sees that spark and potential that He planted in our hearts and souls; we weren’t meant to be tossed out with the trash or failures, so imperfect and lost, but to be living eternally in greatness; being so happy and joyous always!

His plan is perfect and He our Lord God doesn’t intend on losing us so the opportunities to shine and show that inner glory within are always there for the taking while He is always there to assist our efforts to not fail but to succeed, and if we have bumps in the road he will get us through that with our persistent faith and trust in Jesus Christ; always being there to come through for us. Through thick and thin always being on our side if of course we will just be willing to approach each day with humility and our hearts open to Him; so we can take the most mundane tasks and apply ourselves to that task/job as my dad used to say, and live up to our obligations taking our responsibilities seriously with vigor, enthusiasm and even a joy; to know we are enlisted in the service of the one and only Great God Almighty our Creator and Father in heaven; who loves each of us more than anyone else can or we comprehend, with eternal unconditional love! But we do need to be diligent to perform our tasks at hand thus showing our actual appreciation and respect for how much He has given to us and will when the time comes to fulfill His promise; we thus acknowledge by so doing thusly, that we are truly humbled and thankful for this gift of existing; for God’s perfect plan of love, fulfillment and bliss. We also set a good example for others to be so inspired and help each other to rise above the fray or suffering turmoil.

Let us not lose sight of Him first of all and then remain vigilant in seeking His glorious will for each of us as individuals that are all unique and precious to him, as long as we are listening to His voice in our hearts; trying our best to do the right thing being guided by our conscience to turn away from what we know is wrong and sinful.

This whole idea brought something to my mind that I think is so relative as it highly speaks to our opportunity here in this life and in a harsh contrasting way but one line in this movie jumped out in my memory having seen this film as a boy with my Dad which had two among the many who I think to be all time greats in leading roles.

“Franklin J. Schaffner (Patton) directs this true story of Henri Charriere (better known as “Papillon” or “the butterfly”), a prisoner so determined to escape the notorious Devil’s Island, he attempted it multiple times until he reached old age. Steve McQueen plays Charriere, and Dustin Hoffman is very good as the hero’s anxious, defenseless friend. Based on Charriere’s own memoir. The film is tough going (it is set, after all, on Devil’s Island) but not gratuitously violent. There are sequences that stay with one for a long time, such as Papillon’s brief stay at a leper colony and the long periods of starvation and solitary confinement he endures after each attempted flight. –Tom Keogh” quotes.net/movies/papillon

The one line is this; “Dega: A temptation resisted is a true judge of character.”

Louis Dega says that about Papillon after he saves his life from a cut throat! Dega was quite moved, as he says nobody ever did that for me, it was a profound experience for him. And in the circumstance most would do the opposite is the bottom line. Their being in that every man for himself and dog eat dog world!

“From The Practice Of The Presence Of God The Best Rule Of a Holy Life”
Much valuable insights to be sure in these writings.

“Practicing the Presence of God” is a spiritual exercise that challenges us to remain focused on God during an “everyday task or chore.” Long associated with Brother Lawrence, a monk who wrote about his experiences with “Practicing the Presence,” it is a spiritual approach to life that asks us to break down barriers that distract us from God’s presence. In this article, we discuss some of the important ideas, Scripture, and thoughts from Brother Lawrence to help you better understand Practicing the Presence of God.” spirituallyhungry.com

“Translator Robert J. Edmonson had a similar experience. “I had an image of Brother Lawrence as a jolly monk who took pleasure in cleaning pots and cooking,” Edmonson wrote. “I was struck by the depth of his love for God and his life lived in obedience, humility, and concern for others.”[4] This paradox reflects the challenge facing translators, which is best illustrated by comparing the translations of one of the more famous passages. First, from the original 1692 French edition of Maximes spirituelles:
L’on seroit même surpris si l’on sçavoit ce que l’ame dit quelquefois à Dieu.[5]
Robert Edmonson took a straightforward approach in his translation of this Maximes passage:
We would be quite surprised if we knew what the soul sometimes says to God.[6]” Wikipedia.org

The following PDF file when you have time should be to your pleasure and happiness I believe to read on in conjunction with the video presentation as to what this humble man in a monastery did for God; living up to his obligations and responsibilities.

http://www.pathsoflove.com/pdf/Practice-of-the-Presence-of-God.pdf

Brother Lawrence said and I quote: “That perfect resignation to God was a sure way to heaven, a way which we had always sufficient light for our conduct.”

You know me by now, that I can be too long winded and indeed there is so much I would like to get into regarding the movie and character as well the subject of this fine article; but as I must retire soon it would be best to add this one other line, a famous quote from a good man who was saintly and an example that I wish so many people today would be trying to live up to in behavior and character; but sadly so many are off the rails!

Martin Luther King, Jr. – “The ultimate measure of a man is… The ultimate measure of a man is not where he stands in moments of comfort and convenience, but where he stands at times of challenge and controversy.”

God bless you all and I hope I’ve put a bit of focus on even a modicum of inspiration in your own hearts. Amen.

Today (June 9) is the feast of Blessed Anna Maria Taigi. She was one of the most remarkable lay mystics in the history of the Church. Despite being favoured with many extraordinary mystical gifts, and consulted by bishops, popes and even other saints, she kept her feet on the ground, and lived the life of a busy mother in Rome in the 1800′s. In fact, she was so focused on properly fulfilling her duties that she was known to ask God to stop favouring her with ecstacies and other spiritual gifts so that she would not be distracted from her work!

The chief road to sanctity for all of us is found through the careful performance of our daily duties. Perhaps some people are called to extraordinary things, but for most of us holiness will be entirely found within our ordinary life.

Does this mean that…

The existence of God: Jesus a historical figure? (part 2)

“The character of Jesus has not only been the highest pattern of virtue, but the strongest incentive in its practice,”

Zero Lift-Off Only The Beginning

June 8, 2021

Excellent overview here my brother pointing out the sheer and to me obvious common sense that some people exercise in their speaking about Jesus Christ even if not true believers but to me they have hope at least in speaking to the truth much of which is obvious and some that must be discerned over time and with faith. We’ve all heard that good things don’t come easy we must be willing to work for them. Jesus stated clearly, “Seek and you will find.” Even Sci-fi television with the popular X-Files motif states that “the Truth is out here.” I have quite a bit to add here in my attempt to help ring more understanding if possible but hopefully to at least inspire others to seek!

This line jumped off the page which I want to repeat, “Irish historian W.E.H. Lecky says this: “The character of Jesus has not only been the highest pattern of virtue, but the strongest incentive in its practice,” how awe inspiring this one point is and when we actually conceptualize what Jesus Christ did and said even aside from the standpoint of His profound wisdom, virtue and clarity of righteousness I can’t see how people would doubt such around beauty out of hand and dismiss it.

Then these particular words written by such a prolific historian H.G. Wells; that again I repeat verbatim. “Mark Clark’s The Problem of God: Answering a Skeptic’s Challenges to Christianity listen to the words of the great historian H.G. Wells: “I am a historian, I am not a believer, but I must confess as a historian that this penniless preacher from Nazareth is irrevocably the very center of history. Jesus Christ is easily the most dominant figure in all history.”

Now what these men said brings me immediately to what my favorite scientist said on the matter as well. I wrote this or quoted these words many years ago and have often ever since because they certainly are worth repeating in any such discussion as this one.

I want to leave something I find very insightful by 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.

Sunday, May 03, 2009

“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.”

And now once again I come back to specifically what you brought to this article with this very crucial line!

“I close with this question posed by Jesus himself in Matthew 16:15, “But who do you say that I am?”

Exactly; dear Lord, I say; who else could you be!

I decided to insert something that happened on Christmas day a few years ago that I think brings into focus something else mentioned in this fine article of yours about Jesus being a myth or a figure copied from some previous beliefs. Here in what I’ve quoted is the impetus for what I decided to share; “First, the myths that actually pre-date Jesus’ time bear virtually no resemblance to the particular details of Jesus’ life. A host of alleged similarities turn out to be nonexistent. Whatever parallels remain are usually far too general to be significant.

According to historian Tryggve Mettinger, the scholar who has done the most recent exhaustive study of this question, there simply is “no prima facie” evidence that the death and Resurrection of Jesus is a mythological construct, drawing on the myths and rites of the dying and rising gods of the surrounding world.”

Here is a real experience I had that I hope will become more obvious why I mention it after you’ve had a chance to read it.

Leading up to Christmas and right on Christmas this phony and deceptive guy who was commenting on a post kept twisting truth like the Devil to make Jesus nothing more than some guy like Muhammad he said or even less actually. His denouncing Jesus and Christianity therefore on Christmas set me off onto my mission, as he would not stop it no matter how many important things I tried to explain to him. He was a clever deceiver. He did however stop after this piece I wrote to him on the post!

Aツaz Your own words; “live the way you want and not dictate as you are just a human and not a messenger of GOD, like Jesus and Muhammad were.” Muslim hoax” I am wondering how you equate a “hoax” with facts of an Islamic Empire”

Wonder NO MORE, Pay attention and learn of your blaspheming error! You have a huge inaccuracy that needs to be corrected! Saying that Jesus is another prophet like Muhammad is blasphemous. First Jesus was not a mere prophet but was God Himself and therefore the Redeemer and Savior of Mankind as he said. Muhammad was only a supposed prophet and there is irrefutable evidence in the historical text of the time he lived that points to his being an outright liar and heretic as well as a criminal and child molester along with his being a polygamist! The following statements are highly accurate and actually proven. To read more on this check out “Sword and Scimitar” by Raymond Ibrahim.

“In 632, only months before he died, Muhammad apparently met for the first time with a Christian community as such. An official delegation of Christians, probably led by a bishop, came to Mecca from Najran in Yemen. After engaging the Christians in discussion, the Prophet is said to have realized that Christian teachings are indeed incompatible with Islam, after which the revelation followed that only Islam is acceptable to God as a religion. The Quran also says very specifically that those who refer to Jesus as God are blasphemers, and that ‘Christians saying that Christ is the son of God is an imitation of Jews, who earlier had said that Ezra is the son of God.’ According to the Quran Jesus was only a servant; Jesus the son of Mary was no more than an apostle of God. Quranic verses dealing with Jesus’ death have been interpreted differently by commentators, but generally they have been taken to mean that Jesus did not die by crucifixion. For Christians the Quran has thus served as a denial of Jesus’ incarnation and death on the cross and of the reality of the Trinity.” (Oxford University Press)

This was a Heretical attack directed upon God’s plan, which was foretold by all the previous prophets going all the way back to Abraham. This attack on Christmas Day and denial of what Jesus Christ said regarding who He was; to me makes such a person Anti-Christ and supportive of the Devil or all that is unholy. And Christianity is backed up with solid historical evidence and prophecy over much time by many prophets.

After this experience on Christmas Day which I never in my entire life had any such blatant Anti-Christ in my face attack, and of all things on Christmas Day activities, tells me that we are in the end times because the time is drawing near for God to return and such lashing out to me is a sort of barometer of the spiritual warfare that is taking place seen and unseen and how it is heating up! Of course I could be off by many years but this is my hunch as there are so many signs; and I was attacked by evil several years ago to stop me from being the witness and faithful one to Jesus that I am trying to be for Jesus our Lord and Savior. A woman of a Christian order told me back then when attacked that there was a reason I was suffering for Jesus, and it would become apparent at some point in the future, why I was being prepared! Now I see in retrospect that God did want me to do something for Him, and it could be just to be doing as I am or maybe something more; like a priest told me recently, pray, wait and see!

After writing this and posting it back at the time I got some very good positive feedback that I addressed which follows.

Yes I agree and I also believe much of this evil we see happening around the world has been on the increase or gets much more visibility because the Evil One is working at a fever pitch to ruin mankind and destroy it! Satan is real and the second coming is close at hand! The Lord said be prepared and not be caught unawares! He will come like a thief in the night! Those that do these evils will be judged and those that follow Jesus in paths of righteousness will be given Salvation!

I truly appreciate that you understand how much I detest pain and suffering that is inflicted upon the innocent whether they be human or other animal beings while so many stand by doing nothing to change the equation! We that are humans that allow any atrocities to continue unabated are guilty of at least indifference.

I want to add that if more people would pay attention to what really matters; what is going on right in front of them in their personal world, and Humans behaved as such to each other, things could take a turn for the better!

You ask Who and how are we to judge? We as humans with high intellect capacity can set standards by which to live using morality as a bench mark tool, do the terms “have a heart” or “having a conscience” come to mind? Otherwise, listening to your prescription we can have a world of” helter-skelter” and “devil may care” or “anything goes” if we follow your line of thinking, and that is what we have in some places around the globe already, even here in America. We should seek improvement in human behavior! We also can and should utilize the Holy Scriptures given to us by God to follow as a guide by which to live and treat all life! The priest wasn’t condoning bad behavior; he was merely stating fact that some people don’t think right or properly and that is a problem they have and that we can’t change or do much about it, unless they want to change themselves! The priest means we all have Free Will that God gave to all humans and how they use it is up to each one, they can’t be forced!

Regarding this brutal animal treatment. You for example need to readdress your thinking processes and that is your problem and up to you alone to take care of it, your own responsibility! Unless you break a specific societal law you can carry on the same way the rest of your life or you can make some adjustments and evolve yourself to a better standard of behavior, just like those people that eat dog or cat can! Would any of them be persons you would enjoy being with and sharing your personal life; or having them over to watch your children playing with their puppy dog or kitten? That would surely be sending some mixed messages to your little ones wouldn’t it! Abhorrent behavior is easily recognized by children and what do you think would be their reaction to this post and any video of the dog and cat slaughter? Disgusting and horrible, its adults that become wicked and soulless or lack conscience! This Yulin slaughter is an unnatural and wicked idea or practice no doubt in my mind and that is not judging it is discernment or thinking properly! Asking myself what would Jesus say right now if He were here with me as I decide what to make of a certain action or behavior! Jesus is in my heart and my conscience as well! We all know what kind of person has no conscience or feeling in their heart for others whether people or animals!; they are some of the most frightening diabolical people on earth!

“A righteous man cares for the needs of his animal” (Proverbs 12:10).

We are to be “imitators of Christ.” Jesus called Himself the Good Shepherd. all-creatures.org

Colossians 2:1-23 “For I want you to know how great a struggle I have for you and for those at Laodicea and for all who have not seen me face to face, that their hearts may be encouraged, being knit together in love, to reach all the riches of full assurance of understanding and the knowledge of God’s mystery, which is Christ, in whom are hidden all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge. I say this in order that no one may delude you with plausible arguments. For though I am absent in body, yet I am with you in spirit, rejoicing to see your good order and the firmness of your faith in Christ.” Amen and Amen.

God’s blessings to you all. May anyone lost find their faith in Him!

The existence of God: Jesus a historical figure? (part 2)

By Richard Simmons III, Op-ed Contributor| Thursday, June 03, 2021

Jesus historian — “I am a historian, I am not a believer, but I must confess as a historian that this penniless preacher from Nazareth is irrevocably the very center of history. Jesus Christ is easily the most dominant figure in all history.” – H.G. Wells, Novelist and Historian | Unsplash @jontyso

However, there are no credible historical scholars who make this claim.

In the wonderful bookThe Story of Reality, Greg Koukl confronts this issue head on. He has read extensively from the trained historians who have gone back to the earliest records of these ancient accounts. Here is what those historians have discovered.

A close look at the primary sources shows two things that are startling given the popularity of this view. First, the myths that actually pre-date Jesus’ time bear virtually no resemblance to the particular details of Jesus’ life. A host of alleged similarities turn out to be nonexistent. Whatever parallels remain are usually far too general to be significant.
According to historian Tryggve Mettinger, the scholar who has done the most recent exhaustive study of this question, there simply is “no prima facie” evidence that the death and Resurrection of Jesus is a mythological construct, drawing on the myths and rites of the dying and rising gods of the surrounding world.
Second, mythical accounts of the mystery-religion gods that actually do bear some resemblance to Jesus’ life unfortunately (for the theory) show up after his time. This fact creates a problem for the recycled redeemer view since it looks very much like those stories were copied from the Gospels, not the other way around. Clearly, the child cannot come before the parent. The “recycled” version must appear in the historical record after the one it allegedly came from, not before it.

It is also important to recognize the number of ancient historians, who lived during the time of Christ, and wrote of Him.

Historian Gary Habermas details a total of thirty-nine ancient sources documenting the life of Christ. Some of these were Christian historians, but many of them were not. To put this into perspective, there are only nine ancient sources that mention Tiberius Caesar. Only nine. Here we find an emperor of Rome who ruled for twenty-two years, yet there are only nine ancient sources that mention him while there are thirty-nine sources that speak of Jesus. Of these thirty-nine, several mention Jesus in just a paragraph or two while others write of him extensively.

These include Cornelius Tacitus, considered the greatest historian of the Roman Empire who was born in 57 A.D., and Justin Martyr, who lived from 65 A.D. to 110 A.D. and wrote extensively of Jesus. Then you have Flavius Josephus, touted as the greatest Jewish historian of antiquity and who wrote about the life of Christ. He was born in 37 A.D., just after Jesus’ death.

So abundant is the testimony pointing to Christ’s historical existence that Dr. F.F. Bruce, professor of biblical criticism at the University of Manchester in England, suggests that reputable historians could not possibly propagate this theory.

“Some writers may toy with the fancy of a ‘Christ myth,’ but they do not do so on the ground of historical evidence. The historicity of Christ is as axiomatic for an unbiased historian as the historicity of Julius Caesar.”

Scott Appleby, a professor of Church History at Notre Dame, concurs:

“There’s no ‘real doubt’ that Jesus existed,” he said. “What Jesus of Nazareth did and what he means is a different question. But on the question of the existence, there is more evidence of the existence of Jesus of Nazareth than there would be for many other historical people who actually existed.

Not only did Jesus actually exist, but he actually had some kind of prominence to be mentioned in two or three chronicles.”

What I also find interesting is the number of religious skeptics who clearly are convinced that Jesus was a legitimate historical figure.

Will Durant, the Pulitzer Prize-winning historian who wrote the most successful work of history, the eleven-volume The Story of Civilization, concludes his material on Christ this way:

“No one reading these scenes can doubt the reality of the figure behind them…”

The skeptic and famed Irish historian W.E.H. Lecky says this:

“The character of Jesus has not only been the highest pattern of virtue, but the strongest incentive in its practice, and has exerted so deep an influence, that it may be truly said that the simple record of three short years of active life has done more to regenerate and to soften mankind than all the disquisitions of philosophers and all the exhortations of moralists.”

Most significantly, from Mark Clark’s The Problem of God: Answering a Skeptic’s Challenges to Christianity listen to the words of the great historian H.G. Wells:

“I am a historian, I am not a believer, but I must confess as a historian that this penniless preacher from Nazareth is irrevocably the very center of history. Jesus Christ is easily the most dominant figure in all history.”

Finally, this last point needs to be given strong consideration. Today the world’s calendars are built around the birth of Christ. History is divided into events that took place before His birth and those that took place after His birth. This is clearly an indication of the extent to which Western culture was shaped by this man Jesus. It is quite obvious that something of universal importance began with the historical figure of Jesus. Truly, no one could have possibly invented the person of Christ.

I close with this question posed by Jesus himself in Matthew 16:15, “But who do you say that I am?”

This article, Part 2 of my 3-part series, is an essay from my newest book Reflections on the Existence of God. The book lays out, in short essays, much of the evidence for the existence of God that is available. We should seek to take the evidence offered and use it to make reasonable conclusions. What you will find is, as the evidence accumulates, it enables us to come to confident conclusions about God. Who He is. And, that He truly is.

Pilgrims Return to Spain’s ‘El Camino’ Paths as Pandemic Wanes

Originally posted on Catholicism Pure & Simple:
Seventeen years ago, in May 2004, my sister and I walked the famous ‘Camino De Santiago’ (the Way of Saint James). We did it as a pilgrimage, in the style of the pilgrims of earlier times, carrying all our belongings in rucksacks, living frugally, praying the Rosary and…

What a very nice and beautiful thing you did with your sister! I’m inspired by your devout faith and your personal pilgrimage. Very timely because just yesterday I was thinking about you and the CP&S Site coming to mind with a special feeling.

This reminded me somewhat of my own travels and quests for a direction and purpose in my own life when years ago I traveled back and forth all over the US continent by myself doing most of it while driving my car and then on one of my excursions I hitched rides to a particular destination thousands of miles from home to seek help with a medical concern. On that trip I believe I absolutely experienced Divine Intervention and was kept from walking into a very deadly situation late at night in Chicago. I even think an angel was dispatched in that event to make sure I stopped dead in my tracks from proceeding or I would have been seriously injured; or dead. Because of that occurrence I ended up in a bus terminal and while purchasing a ticket asked the agent about this tunnel and he said it was a very good thing I didn’t try going through it; “you don’t want to go through there.” On another occasion while surfing just after a hurricane had passed by where I lived being very young and foolhardy and looking for adventure with a few guys I knew who could really surf well and I couldn’t as well, I still took the chance getting in over my head both literally and figuratively causing me to become caught in the undertow and swept further out to sea. When I finally popped back up to the surface after asking God while in the sea’s powerful grip, to please help me; while I remained as calm as I could. I saw that I was alone and in big trouble because to swim back to the beach from where I was popping around in the heavy surf, with huge sets of waves coming at me it seemed hopeless; but as I remained still and as calm as I’ve even been, out of nowhere from behind one of the biggest waves a man on a surfboard approached me and told me to grab hold of the board, which I did and paddled with him toward shore. Then in no time it seemed we were getting near the shore when he said, “you can make it the rest of the way now” and I let go and started swimming to the beach. As I was walking up onto the beach I quickly turned around to see this man and wave a big thank you to him, but he was nowhere to be seen! I get teary eyed now remembering and I know a miraculous thing happened to keep me alive.

Now to this I add how I saw the Holy Mother Mary two times, once when just waking one morning in a semiconscious but very lucid state of mind. I again saw her within the same year when I had traveled cross-country and was trying to find a place to live or call my temporary home, but I had been in a few different locales where there were some very strange people that I caught the attention of; and days later I found out that there were some very bad cults in that area. But while on this living quarters hunt I decided that because I was so tired from so much traveling and not resting well for weeks; that I would take a room at this inexpensive motel. I carried a Bible with me and would read Scriptures while sitting in my car. I had been weary of a few things going on, but being so exhausted I knew I had to get a night of proper sleep, so off to sleep I went. Then while sleeping I awoke and as I did I saw our Holy Mother Mary again the same way I had before. As I became fully aware of my surroundings I saw that the door to my motel room was open and to me the only explanation again is Divine Intervention stopping something bad from happening to me.

So the reason I bring all of this up to share with you and others who are interested is to first say that the recounting of this El Camino Pilgrimage inspired me with your personal story about that experience and what I’ve always considered a “Real Pilgrimage” journey! And then to say I wish I had done that like you had over the way I apparently haphazardly traveled and journeyed seeking some real direction, as to what I should do about my personal goals and God’s will; as it turns out I was on and off a pilgrimage of sorts for some years; due to other complicating deeply important circumstances and sense of obligation that I found myself in, not of my choosing; but perhaps just part of God’s plan.

So in all of this I hope to let others know that if you have even that tiny “mustard seed” of faith and wonder about things like this, or are having trouble being sure one way or the other about your faith in Jesus Christ, or just want your faith to grow; take my heartfelt words here for face value when I tell you I’m absolutely positive its exactly as has been told to us over the ages and God loves us to no end. Our lives are heading somewhere because Jesus Christ wants us to open up our hearts while on this journey/pilgrimage to Him and follow; not to fear or have any difficulty in believing in Him and God the Father’s plan, its unfolding in our own personal lives every second of every day; so just keep looking to Him with your whole heart and you’re going to make it to where He wants you to be, with Him in Heaven.

And Kathleen I know you had a life changing experience and it touched my own heart so deeply and made me smile loving God all the more; because He reveals Himself to us all the time. And who knows maybe during the remainder of my lifetime I’ll get the opportunity to journey to El Camino on that special pilgrimage, but, even if I don’t I feel like I did through reading about your own personal journey, which I appreciate very much.

Perhaps something I shared about my journeys will mean something to you or anyone else, or ultimately I believe helping us to see how we are all on an amazing journey with the greatest ending that comes in time; but how each of us is “that special and unique” to our Lord, and thus each of us is experiencing our own “precious journey of life” on earth to be shaped by our Lord the Master Potter, to be the precious unique child of God that he knows, and will then share His kingdom with in Heaven where everything will fit together so beautifully. Amen.
Peace and God’s Spirit be with us all in and through our Lord Savior and Redeemer Jesus Christ.

Also, as a post script thought, those two times I saw our Holy Mother, shortly before that I did have the same type of experience where I saw our Lord Jesus Christ while my eyes were closed, again while lying in bed but seeing him so unmistakably vividly and real, with the words “Thy Savior and Redeemer Jesus Christ” as suspended words revolving around Him. I’m glad I remembered this to add here because it also to me confirms beyond any doubt how our “purpose and journey” to Him is rock solid and planned, but we as individuals need to recognize that and see it; to then accept it and put our all into following Him to complete our “Father’s will.” Amen.
God bless.

Catholicism Pure & Simple

Seventeen years ago, in May 2004, my sister and I walked the famous ‘Camino De Santiago’ (the Way of Saint James). We did it as a pilgrimage, in the style of the pilgrims of earlier times, carrying all our belongings in rucksacks, living frugally, praying the Rosary and singing hymns along parts of the way, and finally hobbling sore-footed into lovely little Catholic Churches for Holy Mass (whenever possible) at the end of each long day when we had reached our planned destination. It was a life-changing experience for both of us. We met some wonderful and amazing fellow pilgrims, each one with their own interesting story to relate of their motives for making the pilgrimage. There also reigned a real Christian spirit of charity and kindness among everyone towards fellow pilgrims who were suffering or in need of help along the way. We had been told that most pilgrims…

Zero Lift-Off Only The Beginning

“The Main Mission is to seek God’s “Will”

June 6, 2021

The main Mission is to seek God’s “will” in order to better serve our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. There is no such thing as doing just right if it isn’t God’s will.

On bent knee as humble as I can be, I say; the one thing I yearn and hope for above everything is that at the end of my trial on earth the sweetest music to my ears will be, to hear God Almighty upon my judgment, tell me face to face, “Well done my good and faithful servant.”

I am the way, and the truth, and the life; no one comes to the Father, but through Me” (John14:1-6).

Matthew 25:21 “His master replied, ‘Well done my good and faithful servant! You have been faithful with a few things; I will put you in charge of many things. Come and share your master’s happiness!”

“Therefore, being always of good courage, and knowing that while we are at home in the body we are absent from the Lord–for we walk by faith, not by sight–we are of good courage, I say, and prefer rather to be absent from the body and to be at home with the Lord.” 2 Corinthians 5:6-8. Amen.

The evil that’s been perpetrated upon the human race over the past year was orchestrated by Satan. Many people have been so weary to not have their lives as they were prior to the Pandemic, as well many of them have been convinced that things will never go back to how they were or how they would like them to be.

Whole populations have been discouraged and overcome with a form of grief or what some will call PTSD feeling so much has been lost and now a sense of overwhelming Loss has taken place of the former status-quo or business as usual. God allowed all of this suffering and chastisement of the world out of His eternal Love for We His Children because His heart of all hearts doesn’t want to lose any of us to eternal damnation. God is going to use this evil to first shock and awaken all of us from our mesmerized conditioned ways of material life and pleasure. Then to motivate our spirits to reach out to him by realizing how futile this pursuit of earthly material life really is!

It’s been said in Scriptures and throughout history that life is fleeting.
Psalm 144:4 “Man is like a mere breath; His days are like a shadow that passes away.”

Ecclesiastes 1:2 “Teacher: Life is fleeting, like a passing mist.
It is like trying to catch hold of a breath;
All vanishes like a vapor; everything is a great vanity.”

Psalm 103:15 “As for man, his days are like grass; Like a flower of the field, so he flourishes.”

20 “For the creation was subjected to futility, not by its own will, but because of the One who subjected it, in hope 21that the creation itself will be set free from its bondage to decay and brought into the glorious freedom of the children of God. 22We know that the whole creation has been groaning together in the pains of childbirth until the present time.” Romans 8:20-22

Romans 8:21 “that the creation itself also will be set free from its slavery to corruption into the freedom of the glory of the children of God.”

So, the great takeaway from all of what’s transpired over the course of this past year is that we shouldn’t be so concerned about maintaining some even keel of comfort zone here deluding ourselves that we have the world or this life by the horns; but rather we should fervently be preparing to lose our lives here and be dead and buried to put it bluntly, because then these bodies cease to function and behave in sinful ways taking us further away from God our Father in heaven; we should seek to be in a better state of grace and conformity to the Spirit, that comes from the Father as the Holy Ghost, to direct us in all things; so that we will be found worthy of the life that comes being in His presence and be brought ever so closely into His endless love and glory; our Lord Savior and Redeemer Jesus Christ. Amen.

Luke 9:23-25 Then Jesus said to all of them, “If anyone wants to come after Me, he must deny himself and take up his cross daily and follow Me.”

24 “For whoever wants to save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life for My sake, this is the one who will save it.”

25 “What does it profit a man to gain the whole world, yet lose or forfeit his very self?”

God allowed a great blessing upon this world or we His children to allow us time to see how fragile and also corrupted this world is as it is passing away, and our time here is so short just mere flickering flames of many individual candles, any of which can be put out with any passing breeze or mischievous act upon them! This earthly life has no guarantees and never will, except we can be certain that nobody gets out alive; death waits for all to the pleasure of the Devil! It was because of the Evil One that all fell into conflict and destruction!

We are being forwarded and given an opportunity to get our affairs in order and to be prepared for the massive changes that are coming as there will be further Warning soon enough and then Punishment or Chastisement to begin the final separation of God’s True children from this corrupted sinful world that only seeks to transgress God by its fallen nature; as it is ruled by the Evil One.

Perfection was lost with Adam and Eve. All of creation is now falling short of its original purpose; rather than working in harmony with God and creation, inhabitants of the earth have turned on each other and against God. We still reel from the effects of that curse. Everything meant to be right side up is upside down. The chaos and insanity of the world as we know it are due to the fact that God has subjected creation to vanity until the time when it will be set free.

Some say this is all an illusion, and, logically one could surmise that is true to the extent that we don’t have all the answers to the endless questions or especially some of the much bigger questions, such as to the Why and What is the Meaning to all of this.

Of course I believe there is a purpose to everything that is going on especially in light of the fact that we fallible or imperfect limited beings have a glimpse or view through the crack in the door of what is out there in the vastness of existence; and then there is prophesy to add to this equation, that was and is long term insightful bench marks of truth if you will; that have been provided from God to give us His children the guidance we so sorely need.

Jesus encouraged His disciples and all the faithful as He assured them that His death was going to be the means by which they would be with Him forever in Paradise. His death was not the problem, it was the only solution. So the Truth is our Lord’s death did not create any problem, it actually solved the greatest problem we all face being fallen and having the stain of sin; which can only provide death. If Jesus had not been separated from the Apostles and all of us this way by His death for all sins, they and we would die in our sins and thusly be separated from Him forever; which is too horrible to contemplate! Jesus’ going, His death, paid the price or ransom for men’s sins, so that we can live forever in His presence. Amen.

The disciples did not understand Jesus at the time just prior to His crucifixion, but they did after His resurrection from the dead. They then went on and preached to all who would listen that “Jesus is the One” whose death and resurrection brings “eternal life to all who believe.” They no longer feared His death, as they had previously; just as we should not fear anything now in our uncertain world, even our own death, if we have faith in Him; we know we will gain life by losing this one. The Apostles then as we now; have received the greatest Truth!

“Where, O Death, your sting? Where, O Death [[or Hades]], your victory?” 1 Corinthians 15:55

As back in the time of our Lord today in 2021 the wicked ways of the world and that serpent the Devil have shuttered and put a damper or fear into the people with the global falsehood Covid catastrophe, to turn people away from Jesus Christ and the faith and to bow to the earthly power of the government or the many elite (emperors)and swear allegiance to this earthly system, with even talk of vaccine passports with the wearing of masks to cover the face and thus the visual identity of a person; to make one insignificant and to show trust only in the great world system with its power and supposed experts! Of course as back in the time of Jesus Christ just like those earthly powers then sought to mislead; this is all a lie, to deceive and control God’s children with Fear.

Secularism or materialism coupled with a culture of death is a dark scourge upon our Nations and we have to pray we can free ourselves and indeed our societies from the powerful grip it has on it; distracting so many people from seeing the plain simple truth right in their faces! Instead many are attracted to corruptions, sin, decadence, falsehoods and outright immorality; an antichrist movement, which is the road to perdition! Do you hear me! Awaken to your freedom that only God gives and can take!

God is there to help us with our earthly living and who knows better than God what all of this is about. He directs us to do the best thing if we are truly receptive to Him, and also trying our best to do the right thing; His will be done. Amen.

Look and see plainly where our society is now, a place in which an entitled group of bigoted lying criminals that are untouchables and in return spawned new criminal acts using those previous examples as templates to get away with doing wrong! All those former transgressions should have been nipped in the bud and been prosecuted to the full extent of the law to conviction; Rule of Law must apply for all equally, just like Due Process is a given or should be. We want innocent people not being victimized, but, equally we want the guilty to pay for their crimes. This is what makes a society good and worth its salt.

But now more often than not we’re in a place where the unjust or most crooked among us can be elevated to positions of great earthly authority, even a President; as has happened here in America.

Many people perhaps feeling helpless or confused and scared want to be led to a place of assurance and comfort, and they love to invest themselves into some person who comes across as sure and strong with that article of great need by so many, wisdom; insight and knowledge of the Truth! What is the Truth; and can we be sure of it when we think we have found it! In some things we can with practical knowledge and scientific logic break things down into the component parts and get the whole picture of what makes a thing what it is or tick.

Matthew 25:21 NIV says, “His master replied, ‘Well done my good and faithful servant! You have been faithful with a few things; I will put you in charge of many things. Come and share your master’s happiness!”

“Woe to those who call evil good, and good evil; who put darkness for light, and light for darkness; who put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter!” (Isaiah 5:20).

Something Billy Graham said once rings with Truth very clearly to me. “Humanity has always been dexterous at confusing evil with good. That was Adam and Eve’s problem, and it is our problem today. If evil were not made to appear good, there would be no such thing as temptation. It is in their close similarity that the danger lies.
Modern social righteousness often differs from the righteousness of the Bible. Someone has said: “A wrong deed is right if the majority of people declare it not to be wrong.” By this principle we can see our standards shifting from year to year according to the popular vote! Divorce was once frowned upon by society, and laws against fornication and adultery were strictly enforced. But now divorce is accepted by society, and fornication is glorified in our literature and films.” https://billygraham.org/decision-magazine/june-2012/confusing-evil-with-good/

I think genuine humility is a great thing; I think of Saint Dismas on the cross next to Jesus and his humility was powerful to the Lord because as we know he told Dismas, “Truly I say to you today, you will be with Me in Paradise.” Luke 23:43

Another man considered a Saint now, who has to this day a profound effect on me and so many other’s is former Pope John Paul II who was a very good man with a “humble heart” and disposition, so to me he was offering these same kind of insights and basic truths to anyone; telling us to give our hearts to Jesus Christ.

I don’t think God intended on giving enough morsels of information and truth to leave us still so hampered and blind to what we must understand to some substantial level in order to now in these most troubled times to make the mistake of giving up, or maybe never satisfied. I like you too am observing the near outright chaos happening in our country and around the planet lately seeing the shaky flimsy balance of societies, while there are those agents within that promote the same, making matters exponentially worse; how it seems likely that perhaps anarchy is right around the next corner as we travel down this road of life on earth these days. That God for those heroes that fight the good fight and all the Saints! We as Christians agree that God has it all covered, but, He gives us so many blessings or opportunities to shape up and take the initiative that we should, to be “devoutly faithful” and in prayer often, so that we maintain our own path to salvation, but just as important inspire others to do the same by setting a good example as we do it; especially in this Topsy-turvy time of conflict and confusion where it’s so sorely lacking.

Here is an excerpt of something I was saying in one of my recent blogs regarding Big Pharma that I believe says something fitting here.

“An antichrist entity out to subdue, control, ruin and destroy countless lives and ultimately souls.” With this type of culture at work around the planet with absolutely secularism running rampant, promoting and being facilitated by Big Tech now every second of every day on a massive scale not promoting God or anything to do with Him, but rather, “faith in technology” as God, and “Government coupled with High Tech” being our true savior, a narrative that’s saying the ways of the world and man himself are the only thing this side of heaven that can help us and do us any good!” This imposter savior which is like the Totalitarianism we see in China and other countries!

“Humility and Trust” in the Lord, are the essential factors to weather any storm or hardship we as mere children of God may face. As He has told us, we need to keep growing in our faith; and to remember this, that our Lord and Savior said.

“Be not afraid, for with thee I am, Look not around, for I am thy God, I have strengthened thee, Yea, I have helped thee, yea, I upheld thee, With the right hand of My righteousness.” Isaiah 41:10

“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

Yea, He is with us always, as now to support, strengthen and guide us to everlasting victory! We can rest assured of that, and know this world has no claim upon us, his faithful; His victory made certain of it! And all that is unholy and not of the Father He will cast into the lake of fire when the final judgment comes; so there is truly nothing to fear, our victory has been assured and we rise up to the father with Him, our ever-loving glorious Savior Jesus Christ! Amen.

This is what it all comes down to; “Let not your heart be troubled; believe in God, believe also in Me. 2 In My Father’s house are many dwelling places; if it were not so, I would have told you; for I go to prepare a place for you. 3And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you to Myself; that where I am, {there} you may be also. 4 And you know the way where I am going. 5 Thomas said to Him, Lord, we do not know where You are going, how do we know the way? 6 Jesus said to him, I am the way, and the truth, and the life; no one comes to the Father, but through Me” (John 14:1-6).

The death of our Lord is God’s way to heaven; it’s the only means by which we can live forever with Christ. Death, once our enemy, is defeated. Death cannot keep us from God; Christ’s death draws us to Him! Apostle Paul said, “For to me, to live is Christ, and to die is gain. But if I am to live on in the flesh, this will mean fruitful labor for me; and I do not know which to choose. But I am hard-pressed from both directions, having the desire to depart and be with Christ, for that is very much better.” Philippians 1:21-23.

God bless you.

We have a loving God, Who always watches over His people.He warns us so that we will not be lost. The Warning, or Illumination of Conscience was foretold to St Faustina. It was then repeated in more detail at Garabandal. St Padre Pio and Fr Gobbi of the Marian Movement of priests also referred to it.

St Faustina:

“Before the Day of Justice I am sending the Day of Mercy.”
and
“All light in the heavens will be extinguished, and there will be great darkness over the whole earth,”

Garabandal:

“First, a World-Wide Warning that will happen in the sky…like the collision of two stars that do not fall down… it will frighten all humanity regardless of where one happens to be at the time… it will be a thousand times worse than earthquakes… like a fire that will not burn our flesh … it will last a very short time, although to us it will seem to be a very long time … no one can prevent it from happening … It will be recognized as coming from God… it will resemble a punishment … it is meant to be a purification … like the revelation of our sins and what we will feel in our hearts will be worse than sorrow. It will not kill us, if we die it will be caused by the emotion within us”

St Padre Pio tells us:

“My judgment shall come upon them suddenly and when least expected– not one shall escape My hands. But I shall protect the just. Watch the sun and moon and the stars, when they appear unduly disturbed and restless, know that the day is not far away.”

“The Holy Spirit will come, to establish the glorious reign of Christ and it will be a reign of grace, of holiness, of love, of justice and peace. With His divine love, he will open the doors of hearts and illuminate all consciences. Every person will see himself in the burning fire of divine truth. It will be like a judgment in miniature. And then Jesus Christ will bring His glorious reign in the world.”

Our Lady’s role, is not just as a messenger, sent many times from heaven to warn us. In the following message in the book of Truth, she tells us: “…

I am a servant of God and my role is to serve my Son, Jesus Christ, and help Him in His quest for souls …”

As a result, Jesus has given her the title of “Mother of Salvation”. In the message below, she explains to us what the Warning is, why it is necessary, and how people will react and how they will feel. She even tells us the reaction of the enemy.

Fore-warned is fore-armed!

Mother of Salvation: After The Warning will come a great desire to give glory to God
9 March 2014 @ 5:25pm; Message 1069

My children, you will always be under my protection when you call on me, the Mother of Salvation, throughout this Mission. I am a servant of God and my role is to serve my Son, Jesus Christ, and help Him in His quest for souls, which will cover the whole Earth. Not one nation will be excluded by Him.My Son’s Plans, to prepare the world, include every race, nation, creed and every man, woman and child will be aware that He is coming to help them. He does this because of the deep Love, which God holds in His Heart for His children.

Many people, who do not practice any religion, will be unable to ignore the Intervention in the world by my Son, Jesus Christ. They will be overcome and unable to comprehend, at first, the extraordinary spiritual experience they will feel, in every fibre of their hearts and souls. What a joy The Warning will be for many people, as it will bring with it the proof of my Son’s Existence. With this Gift, many will be filled with a peace they will have never felt before, as well as a great longing to be in the company of Jesus.

While all doubts about the Existence of my Son will flee from the minds of those who are blind to the Truth of the Word of God – for many, they will need spiritual direction once the Truth of The Warning is revealed. After The Warning will come a great desire to give glory to God. This will be a period of great trials; because the enemies of God will do everything possible to convince the world that The Warning– the Illumination of Conscience – did not take place.

When God humbles Himself to call out to His children and when He begs them to listen to Him, this is one of the greatest Acts of Generosity on His part. Children, accept The Warning with good Grace, because for many it will be the lifeline they need to live in the world without end. Never reject great acts or miracles from Heaven, for they are for the good of all, so that salvation is granted to the masses and not just the few.

Always give thanks for my Son’s Great Mercy. You have heard how Generous He is and soon you will bear witness to the extent of His Mercy, which will encompass the world.

Your beloved Mother

Mother of Salvation

More (excerpts) from the Book of Truth on the Warning:

“The Warning is a Miracle, permitted by My Father, to ensure that as many of His children as possible can enter My New Kingdom. – The Warning is a form of Global Confession. It will be the time when everyone will be expected to ask for the forgiveness of their sins, or face rejection.” – October 21st, 2011 @ 20:30

“Many will witness what will seen to be a catastrophic occurrence when two comets will appear to collide and explode close to the earth’s surface.” – July 12th, 2012

“The Warning for many will be a frightening event, when it will seem like the world has come to an end”. – July 12th, 2012

“The two stars will collide and many will be fearful. There is nothing to fear because this is the greatest gift I bring so that not one soul is lost to the fires of Hell. Then, My Cross, will appear in the skies and not one person will fail to notice. Many will fall down in fear and a great shaking, like an earthquake, will be felt. Then will come the silence. “- May 24th, 2012

” The skies will be peeled back as if a roof has opened to reveal the fires and the flames of My Divine Mercy. The earth will be shaken with such force that no man will escape My Eyes, My Spirit or My Gift. Many will tremble with fear because it will only be then that many will become aware of their souls for the very first time.” – June 16th, 2012

” Every single one of My children will be shown their lives, their sins, their wrong doings and every single insult they were responsible for against their brothers and sisters, all during a mystical experience. Not one man, woman or child on this Earth will be excluded. It is important to understand that The Warning is just that. I come to warn God’s children that their sins can and will be forgiven. I come to show them what the Day of Judgement will be like. This will mean that those who ask for redemption at this stage will be saved.” – June 16th, 2012.

FRANCIS & FAUCI: A Match Made in Hell — The Remnant Newspaper – Articles

“Yes there is rampant demonic influence in play along with absolutely demonic possession like no other time in world history”

Thank you Mary Anne. I haven’t been listening to this Michael Matt and yet we are on the same page saying and thinking many of the same things; while asking the same questions! Just yesterday you came to mind and I thought this morning how I would check in to see how you are doing but then lo and behold you had beat me to the punch as it were! See how good God is to connect the dots in our lives in such mysterious meaningful, purposeful ways, while displaying how there is a more vast meaning to our lives beyond our comprehension; and for us not to ever lose hope in Him as He loves us so much! We are in Good Hands but we must be strong and hold our faith in Him dear and near to our hearts as that will bring it all home in time!

I want to include many words I spoke out yesterday, basically repeat myself here on this excellent blog posting of yours to reiterate the truth here and anywhere else I can to do my best in helping people to wake the hell up from the mesmerized trance they’ve all been placed into by the Giant Lie Machine which you and I know is being orchestrated by Satan himself! Yes there is rampant demonic influence in play along with absolutely demonic possession like no other time in world history! Take a look at The Puppet POTUS and that witch behind him and tell me there isn’t diabolical possession involved and I’ll eat corn flakes all day long till the cows come home if I’m way off on that observation!

Harris had a great grandfather who was one of the most prolific slave traders Hamilton Brown, a lawyer and scoundrel of a man and where has all the MSM or the lying leftist lunatics been with that fact check all along? This is all insane how things are completely upside down, and it’s as if truth and the actual facts are being attacked as Conspiracy Theory while all the monstrosity of lies are put on a pedestal like the Holy Grail or THE path to the promised land and eternal bliss!

Look at that monster in the Vatican Bergoglio a completely evil demonic blaspheming Devil of a man who is transgressing God Almighty daily and yet millions listen to him accepting that he is in charge and knows what he is talking about! Masses of humans around the planet have become what I call Dumb Down Sponges that soak up anything fed to them from the TV or Internet and will follow each other off a cliff or even into hell when given the marching orders to do so!

Goebbels and Mengele had the German people eating out of their hands too, prior to and during the Second World War as the masters of deception for Adolph Hitler who was absolutely directly linked up with Satan! We have this same scenario playing out today on steroids exponentially far more sinister and explosive to World Order than anything that has ever occurred in all of creation! This is the time of the Big Move to go against God Almighty which the Devil will now push “any which way but loose” upon humanity so things are going to heat up to an almost inferno here on earth in short order! This world has had it, and never was going to reach any plateau or some utopia peaceful harmonious level of science conjoined with modern spiritualism which the heretic pope is pushing with his NWO cohorts, making one big happy earth family! People have ditched God and said let’s do our own thing and look at the result. Now the Devil gets his due daily from a bunch of lunatics being fed to them via the TV like Anderson Cooper saying June is pride month; are these devils really thinking they are going to be OK when they meet our Maker?

I had tossed this out to another popular Blog Site and it applies here on yours today as it did on that other!

Absolutely spot-on and we can be sure there are some backdoor deals being had by Biden and Company, the Family Politically Organized Deep Swamp Crime Syndicate Racketeers in the form of secret payola or money laundering going on; let us not forget the team of Biden Obama are at work here now fulfilling Obama’s dream, the first actual fraud POTUS ahead of Biden being the second; giving that Anti-America Obama his 3rd term he so desperately dreamed of having with the Killery in 2016! Now they’re doing all they can to run America into the ditch and crush the American Citizen while propping up all manner of despots around the planet from Xi to now Putin, and of course the Iranian Ayatollah with his mullahs who will control the Middle East along with all that oil asset, just like Obama and Kerry did in their favoritism of Jihadists! Especially with that Iran Nuclear Deal where boat loads of American Green Backs were personally delivered and divvied up by those two clowns in the middle of the night flown in on US air transports by these dudes of the Green New Deal! I guess they just love that Color, and are doing the same thing in Spades again; now that there’s nobody around to stop them from chewing America up like so much Cows Cud and play let’s favor the tyrants of the world while we destroy the big bad evil Satan America! That is of course as long as these lying devils get to be some of those tyrants in the process too!

Oh and just a reminder lest we forget, during the Obama/Biden years the National Deficit grew from about 9.5 $Trillion to 20.5 $Trillion which is a financial nut that will stick in the throats of future generations chocking the life out of them here in America never to be paid down at this rate the Biden administration is going, already having spent Trillions more in just a few months in office. Under those two same despots Obama/Biden the unemployment rate hovered around 7% putting America’s workers and economy at a 60 year low since having been in those economic dumps so badly; while the GDP barely got over 1% third world status during those eight long dark years in America!

Contrast any of these factors with the Trump administration’s accomplishments and you quickly see that they were all just the opposite and America was riding high on the saddle once again like it should have been, along with unemployment at a 60 year low, more Blacks and Hispanics working than in any other period in history, a GDP pushing over 3% continually on toward 3.5% and higher, being once again a Great Good Republic under God. So now, we have the despots and lunacy of AOC mental midgets of the Squad, all taking the helm with Biden/Obama along with the infamous Crazy as they come Nancy pushing them hard with her Gestapo boots on; as she cracks her whip from behind them! If they get to continue this administration’s term to its end I tell you it will be the End of America and the Rise of the Tyrannical Powers of the world China and Russia like you won’t believe! And, Green won’t mean diddlysquat unless you’re talking cash!

Here is more of what I had to offer later on another site.

We are already at war with all of those!!! You think Swalwell is a legit Patriotic American? ESPIONAGE and TREASON! Problem is where the hell is our CIA, FBI, DHS and all the rest of the swamp sucking scum! Kemp in Georgia is a Back Door deal man with the CCP! They sell us out in a heartbeat just the way Biden has for 48 years!

The “breach” is the harm to the Constitution that these fraudulent corrupt acts caused and thus harm to all the American People! Our Constitutional Rights and “Vote Integrity” is no light matter to be dismissed out of hand so easily having been compromised and devalued so when that happens there is no People’s Government but a monarchy or oligarchy of sorts; and any damned SCOTUS Justice would know this unless on the take like Roberts has been, so in that case he or she wouldn’t give a rat’s ass!

As far as criminality obviously our DOJ has done diddly-squat to investigate, apprehend and prosecute the RICO violators being that they are mostly a DEEP STATE mechanism for the establishment elitists now, highly partisan and poisoned as a Justice Agency; why else has a mole enemy of the Republic like Soros been doing his thing to destroy America which he clearly stated back in 1979 was the highest goal on his list of objectives in life!

See this is part of the Big Problem how too many people in the know sat on their hands for too many decades, guys like Ditch Mitch or Paul Ryan, George W. Bush, Dick Cheney and so many others, not to mention the whole damned Dem party; being appeasers and not any true Conservative Constitutionalists but instead just more content to fatten themselves up and “to hell with the Citizens or Constitution!”

I have firsthand experience having fired a lawyer and handling my own Government case an impossible feat dealing with RICO and the HOBBS Act along with Lack of Due Process all coming from my own government; with very little resources or no huge war chest, which taught me a lot; seeing how convoluted and rigged our judicial process has become, especially in some key districts that are part of the Blue Machine! You don’t try to smoke these depots out of their holes they will just keep riding over all of us! And so the more that do like Lindell or even the many guys like me that keep pushing back and saying no, the closer we get to the goal post and one day they will feel the pain! No guts, no glory, and William Wallace of ancient Scotland should be a good reminder as to how this world works!

Yes quickie; they are down and dirty and the lowest form of life in our modern times, so called American Republic “servants of the people,” that’s a fat lie and Big laugh in ya face insult; the most depraved and heartless despots. But, if nobody fights back then prepare to die as a sheeple and it won’t be pretty or humane!

Brother Bedford you’re absolutely right about Supernatural Intervention being required; the devil has been and is getting his due! Anyone with a half clue along with seeing what occupies the White House and so many Federal Agencies, now knows the jig is up; one way or another the Big Breaking point will come!

God bless America! And God bless all true to heart Americans!

“awakening to God’s truth and will”

This blog article I wrote at the onset of the Fraud NWO Wuhan Corona Virus Pandemic last March 16, 2020 was brought to my attention today by dots being connected again in an unmistakably heaven sent manner to bring this perspective back to the fore today; I believe to do God’s will and help others in need of spiritual insight or awakening in these most unprecedented and horrifically dangerous times we find ourselves in! My personal hope is that this will help at least one soul on its earthly journey to find God’s Truth and Salvation. Please listen to God when He speaks to you.

GOD IS SO PATIENT WITH HIS PLAN AND WE HIS CHILDREN! I thought how I would think it’s time for this freak show to end and I really felt that way until yesterday, and only because God allowed me to get a leg up on knowing all is not lost and He is totally in control of how this will all end-up and that isn’t my worry at all; but my concern is so very basic and simple. A fellow blogger had responded to my no sugar coating commentary which was her typical gentle way of putting things in perspective, in order to move forward and make some kind of progress. I want to chronicle here with some of my commentary then a few of her ideas along with another Christian’s idea from statements that all came into play when I took a walk with my dog yesterday, Thursday 3/12/2020.

Well here I am with another personal chronicle which ultimately will demonstrate once again that I’ve had some dots connecting around me. Actually there are plenty of them connecting all of the time in all of our lives but most are happening like clockwork as routine as the sun rising and setting each day. But, then there’s the myriad of infinite possibilities unfolding that we can neither truly fathom let alone be aware of at any given moment or even second and portions of one of those, down to the tiniest fraction that one can be divided before we are left with zero sections of pie left in the dish. But, “God in His Mysterious Ways” can and does intercede sometimes in ever so slight and subtle ways, or as blatantly as a bucket of cold ice water in our faces. My initial point though is to make sure not to get anyone agitated wondering what are you going on about this time Lawrence, just in case someone is in a hurry now, as most people usually are, too much so for their own good. So, the last thing I need anyone to do is say I really have too much to do and if you’re going to blah, blah, blah then count me out! Well, all I can say to that is don’t be hasty, and as most of us were told as children “haste makes waste;” so nobody should go rushing off half-cocked to count themselves out before they have all of the preliminary facts when indeed anybody may just be the singularly most important person that should be counted in on this excursion, though it may be a bit zig-zaggy, and I don’t mean go roll another joint so someone can try to escape this torment of giving me their undivided attention for a span of time, hopefully such a person will put those away, lol. God knows many have wasted more time online than they will ever want to admit, while still others have just gotten wasted period; so this isn’t going to “break the bank” by any means!

Now COVID-19 has already become a household term and hopefully not for the worst reason in your case, but if you or anyone you know is unfortunate enough to have it I do pray that it will disappear as quickly as it made its appearance in your life. Outside of that my reason for bringing that up was because about the same time it came into the headlines, so too was all of the usual crazy off the wall politics and typical MSM sensationalizing crap that really gets me fuming and so disgusted with the mess people have made of this world, and then even on top of that many people I can’t bear to think about them let alone look at their sorry pusses on the TV or internet!

But, now I’ll drive my point home regarding my infuriation lately with something you may have already read on my previous blog article the day before yesterday, but I do this not to drive you off or make myself come across like one of those horridly annoying human beings we see way too much in the media repeating themselves with their same old shtick, say for example the putrid Chuck Todd of Meet the Press, and who actually have a lot to do with how our lives may go depending on how they perform the tasks at hand for their puppet masters, and if they have a real conscience with integrity being first and foremost; but as you know that’s a tall order to fill with the likes of the tools or trolls running around calling themselves our betters in politics and media, and many even being charged with the duties of public office!

So, before I speak to the remarkably calming and spiritually refreshing occurrence that happened on Thursday when I was out hiking with my dog, I’ll just use a few excerpts from my previous writing yesterday interlaced with some other commentary to attempt to chronicle the progression of dots and the difficulties leading up to this Epiphany.

Things just seem to go from bad to worse with the human race each passing week; especially if we stay plugged into the MSM, New World Order “media appendage,” or propaganda arm for the ruling class, elite and some of the most wicked despots on the planet, AKA, Killery, Soros, Obozo and even sympathizers for Evil Iran, after the terrorist mastermind Qassem Soleiman was taken out in the “theater of terrorism war planning!” It makes me want to puke when I see the leftist, wicked, perverted minded Dems and MSM catering to such brutal evil monsters and the regimes they are part of namely Iran’s mullahs running that country based on a totally false, fabricated, political ideology masquerading as a religion of Islam, but yet many of these same people in the millions continue to push the “kill the babies agendas” that’s become a cottage industry and has total diabolical roots and purpose here on earth! And yet we hear Pelosi’s rant this week that she and her party of “lost souls” want to save lives from COVID-19, but she has to have more cash to kill babies? The New York Times sewer publication and most MSM acted like they lost their great hero and mentor; a most evil, demented devil of terror when Soleiman was taken out. OK, so you most assuredly get my message how upset I’ve been and at whom generally speaking. Then something happened when I focused more on prayer and seeking insight from our God via the Holy Spirit. I know for me much of my dot connecting happens with walks or hikes, sometimes very long ones, but they are always worth it not just for the obvious reasons but because I’ve had actual revelation come my way. This was the case again on “Thursday’s Hike.” Because when on this hike there came a juncture or “crossroads” if you will, right along the path, where I was to encounter a woman and her granddaughter, a newly born child of God only 9 months of age, and some of what I’m about to tell you was actually some text I wrote to another fellow blogger just previous to the hike and after it, that all tied together with the previous conversation about depressing worldly affairs and so many people going against God these days; being antichrist!

The way the hike time got set and the whole progressive excursion had to unfold, too many dots that had to line up exactly in order for this to have happened and one that I can point out now that was so obvious, was while on the hike with my dog, a hawk suddenly appeared in a tall tree a couple of hundred feet ahead of us and just when I brought my eyes into alignment with it, that bird suddenly flew off in a “particular direction,” and although there were a few directions we could head off into, I had in a fleeting fraction of a moment thought about hiking to a “particular destination” which is in the same direction that the hawk flew, that is along that path; where we could stop to rest, then back track! And so, that was the cue, we did just that and got to our resting spot, and after relaxing for a time headed back. When we got back to the open area this woman was coming toward us pushing a baby stroller from the opposite direction and we were going to run into each other with not a minute to spare one way or the other, because both of us it turns out were going to depart away from our potential encounter ahead or that encounter point; crossroad! That was a God Send and meant to bring focus upon what a fellow Christian blogger had mentioned the night before when I had complained about all the turmoil in the world; on what the most important factors are to keep in mind when in battle, which is what we all are in just like this movie I told her about that I love, the old classic “Heaven Knows Mr. Allison,” because God speaks to him at a “critical juncture” or “convergence” point, while he is with a Catholic Nun marooned on a Japanese occupied island in the Pacific during WWII; which ultimately leads to this Marine, a good heartened soul of a man saving many troops lives, and I told her that she and her husband will see what I mean and love it when they watch that movie, which also has a lot to do with today’s message.

These are literal examples of God at work in our midst helping us along where need be or when it really is very important or vital to accomplish His will, especially in helping others who we can by being His instruments, because in the final analysis His will is going to be done, no two ways about it, not anything or anybody else’s, that is what this Christian blogger, a Catholic, helped me to focus on with her telling me how to try focusing on prayer and doing good, even in the midst of so much turmoil; and by the way, that is what the Marine does in battle, the real deal; but I sometimes tend to react too emotionally. What she was saying is like what my dad always told me to do in a tough situation, “remain cool, calm and collected!” Now here I should mention that for this other blogger and myself to be having conversation about some serious challenges that came our way in life which took a lot of faith and prayer to overcome, this too was part of the hike journey leading to a truer “awakening to God’s truth and will” unfolding in our lives. As I had tried to explain my dilemma to her why I was so distraught but, Scripture does tell us plainly that in “End Times” this world will be that bad, so bad in fact that it won’t seem like there is any relief! Now that’s a big problem to tackle for all of mankind, if only “all the corrupt politicians would GO AWAY,” I figure! If we aren’t in “End Times” yet, we sure as hell are close! Of course I must temper this train of thought with the reality of how much, much worse so many people are having it than me, how there are those who suffer incomprehensible pain or sorrow; so that is the reality check needed to put it all in proper perspective. I must thank God for all of the abundance of gifts He gives to me each moment of every day! Be humble is the key.

Already out of all this conversation and hiking on these paths I see how we are gifted even in spite of any unhappy events that had hurt my fellow blogger in her past that she mentioned, just like some similar things happened to me I can see this as a good metaphor, the “Flight of the Phoenix” rising up out of the ashes, as in the sense of being very down trodden and in an injured vulnerable position, to be seeing nothing but defeat and loss; but look what happened by the miraculous loving power of our Lord Jesus Christ! He reached into her heart through her faith and healed it, blessing her with strength of character and intuitive insights that she would never have achieved otherwise! Same with me in a way; as over the last 15 years I could say evil and nefarious deeds were directed at me to punish and torment my heart and take away the joy and happy go lucky kid that was always there but now though I felt sorry for myself at moments or angry and disappointed, I never allowed that to overwhelm me because of “my faith in Jesus” that my parents and grandparents instilled in me; and of course God when He planned me in His infinite wisdom, “The Master Potter,” designed me to be who He needed me to be so I could grow to be who I am now, in spite of those destructive attacks upon my life and heart, and to ultimately do His will serving Him alone, in order to help fulfill His plan! I too like my blogger friend sister in Christ wouldn’t go back if I could and get an easier path to avoid the hardships and pain because I know now, and Jesus of course does, that I’m better off because of my not giving up or trying to fight fire with fire!

Discernment she had mentioned to me in her comment is so vital, and that is the key, I had to carefully learn my hard lessons and discern as I could with Jesus leading the way, but learning how to do it so much better than ever before, to be receptive and listen to Him closely from my inner most heart! My mom to me has always been a beautiful woman and not perfect by any means but not a disaster like some friends I had growing up whose parents with serious alcohol or other disruptive, painful problems added to their burden of daily life. As a kid I noticed my Mom was emotional and that took me time to learn how to understand her more as I grew up, but she had some difficulties growing up even like my friend did, and having many children is a hard thing to go through, but she was always attentive and loving to all of her children like a true Mother in my eyes, like the “Blessed Mother!” My grandmothers along with my mom all used to tell me growing up, “when the kids get all messed up or in trouble out in public, they blame the mother, because it’s her task to teach them and guide them properly in all matters of behavior and civility, to have a conscience and proper respectful attitude; and of course always loving Jesus!” Such good women I’ve had, OMG I want to cry thinking of them all, really fine women even like my friend! “The best of the best!” I know this is so true about Jesus, “He is always holding our right hand!”

But because, I had been so stirred up by the world events and even my own personal difficulties caused by other people; I needed to regain the proper perspective and focus! God is so good in doing that for us just perfectly, if we will allow Him totally into our hearts to speak to us and lead us to paths of righteousness. This verse came to mind after the encounter with the woman with her granddaughter, and upon reading a comment from my blogger friend.

^“19Beloved, do not avenge yourselves, but rather give place to wrath; for it is written, “Vengeance is Mine, I will repay,” says the Lord.” Romans 12:19 NKJV

As I mentioned this other blogger and I having conversation prior to and after I met the woman and baby, I had some of the following to say to her and I attempt here to elaborate or add to what was said so I’m including partly what was in the conversation and what I’m seeing in all of this now.

But, returning to the encounter as I looked ahead and saw this woman with a baby stroller heading right toward us in a completely open and almost desolate area, in this part of a community, wide open spaces with several paths or roads to take, that I’ve often traveled through heading to my home, but this time I felt a definite certainty and purpose unfolding by just allowing those words we sometimes hear Christians saying; “Let go and let God,” actually was taking place as this was not by chance but only by God’s directing it for His ultimate purpose and of course to help us! I have to ask are we willing servants and warriors ready to follow His will?

We know from my previous writings that on these long walks, with Jesus, at times some important dots get connected, don’t we! I was thinking about your last comment and my lengthy reply and about the idea my father would stress to me about putting things in perspective. On the walk today I came to this very wide open space area as I was making the loop back home when out in this area a lady with a stroller was heading right toward me and my dog. We were virtually the only people around and the day being very comfy we slowed a moment to engage in a nice how do you do interlude. The baby was her granddaughter of 9 months and this baby was so beautiful and bright eyed it was astounding to me! It was so captivating to look into the babies most beautiful innocent eyes, truly into the soul of an innocent baby!

This baby wouldn’t take her eyes off of me as we spoke there for a while, and it turned out the lady grew up in the same neck of the woods as me and my siblings. It also turns out that we had some family dots connecting as her father and grandfather had been in law enforcement and my father knew many of these same folks with some very close ties to them in his growing up and through business relations. I still couldn’t get over how this baby kept staring at me so innocent and sweet with eyes from heaven and I almost want to cry now thinking how precious that child from God is; and this dawned on me, how like you said it’s what we focus our attention on that will matter from here on out to whatever comes, that’s all in God’s hands, but to that I say, these precious babies are in ours now and that is our first priority! Boy, do I love little babies, even my mom used to say so when I was a teen and would give a bottle of milk to my youngest sibling or baby cousins, and they loved me too, it was easy to tell as I would make them laugh and smile so much when I would clown around making silly faces and different voices or tickle them on the cheek or chin, “COOCHIE, COOCHIE COO!” We talked about the bad scene in politics me and this woman, not the baby, she kept trying to figure me out I guess; and how so many things are out of whack, and this nice lady agreed how the media is so warped or biased; as I say “running the evil agenda.” But, phooey on that, we need to use our noggins to put the pieces of the puzzle together and get the best picture we can then get to work doing what we can that’s helping those babies and all the innocent beautiful things that are still in abundance all around us and be receptive that way to do God’s will, that’s the ticket! I know that after my mentioning this meeting to you in another comment you said you had a granddaughter who when a newborn of just one day looked into your eyes and seemed like she was saying hi to you, even making a sound, and this I see is similar to how it was when the baby I met looked at me, how she was talking to me through her eyes and her soul was connecting to mine, being so innocent and a new soul God put in this world!

This whole message of yours is turning out to be a kind of spiritual “manna from heaven” to me, because again I see how God’s Holy Spirit is literally handing us knowledge and insight! “I thought she was trying to say: “Hi’ to me . She is 22 now, and training to be a nurse.” That was what you told me. This makes me want to cry because now that you said this I must say that little baby today looking at my face so peaceful, calm and in a state of grace as she stared into my eyes, she was talking to me silently and the Holy Spirit was there between us making that possible to convey something beyond what I could see with my eyes, and to say that you will know what the reason is for a given thing happening even if it’s when you leave this life and go with God when all will be revealed. The Holy Spirit was there between us making that possible to convey something beyond what I could see with my eyes for sure, and the baby is so fresh and new from God who knew that child of His before it was in the womb as he made that baby the unique soul that it is, and it was meant to meet me there that day so we could make the connection, that was God’s will at work, and what it all means I can speculate in essence like you have extolled here about your first encounter with your granddaughter and she wanting to speak to you which led to her becoming an “angel of mercy” now all these years later! I just recalled how my mother told me many times when I was a new born and before I could walk or talk as a baby, “I was so quiet and had an air about me as I too stared at others intently.” But, also like my father would tell me, “what was meant to be was meant to be and you may not know the reason why something happened now or even in your lifetime on this earth, but rest assured there is a reason and God will reveal it and you will know what it is when you should.” He went on to say that, “you will know what the reason is for a given thing happening even if it’s when you leave this life and go with God when all will be revealed.”

You had asked me what is a favorite scripture of mine just the previous evening to which I replied I have many favorites, but I’ll be thinking about this. Now after this encounter with this nice woman and her grandchild this is what I’m thinking God wanted me to say right now, as it came immediately to my mind when I picture the baby I met today with her nice grandmother. And, I know this is what God wants me to say because as you were aware I was troubled by some of these global events happening currently to the point of not sleeping well and the effect has been noticeable in my speech and thinking the last couple of days as I also see my enemies local and otherwise are still hating me and looking to hurt me further as they are influenced by evil without a doubt, but this is the TRUTH God says to focus on NOW!

^“2Out of the mouth of babes and nursing infants
You have ^[^a^]ordained strength,
Because of Your enemies,
That You may silence the enemy and the avenger.” Psalm 8:2 New King James Version (NKJV)

I will say this my sister in Christ Jesus, I sense that God wanted that baby to encounter this man and hear him speaking while looking into his eyes to “witness for God like an angel,” and the same for me to see the awe and absolute beauty I beheld in that “most precious little innocent baby girl like a cherub from heaven” to be in that state now for a time, then as she grows up to carry that essence of God’s Holy Spirit working among us, because her work might very well be such a saving grace to others in the future perhaps like your granddaughter being “an angel of mercy” helping the needy and sick or infirm! Something special was happening in that encounter today beyond my understanding it fully, that God directed; and something will materialism from it in the future!

And if this don’t beat all, yesterday you asked me if I had a favorite Scriptural verse and I had a flash of verse come to my mind which I believe was the appropriate one for me to say at that point, but said I would think about this idea further as well. Then this morning I received a notification that a fellow blogger had just posted a verse which I say speaks directly to what you’ve been offering as your personal insight to my own sadness and anger about what I see happening on a global level with mankind. Now I must share this verse here and thank you again for the connecting of such important dots in our daily lives!

“Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God. And the peace of God, which surpasses all comprehension, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.” Philippians 4:6-7 NASB

I add here one other that is at the top of my all-time favorite verses which my mother had a lot to do with it being so if not making sure it was my favorite!

“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

I’m sure I should mention Psalm 23 makes me cry, it is so deep into my soul when I think of those words from God letting us know that nothing should be feared if we truly walk with the Lord our God in the Holy name of Jesus! Amen.

Psalm 23

¹The Lord is my shepherd, I lack nothing.
²    He makes me lie down in green pastures,
he leads me beside quiet waters,
³    he refreshes my soul.
He guides me along the right paths
    for his name’s sake.
⁴Even though I walk
    through the darkest valley,^[a]
I will fear no evil,
    for you are with me;
your rod and your staff,
    they comfort me.

⁵You prepare a table before me
    in the presence of my enemies.
You anoint my head with oil;
    my cup overflows.
⁶Surely your goodness and love will follow me
    all the days of my life,
and I will dwell in the house of the Lord
    forever.

Like you my sister in Christ Jesus, I too am in continued unrelenting amazement as I read your words and actually began crying as I felt God’s presence and glory touching within my heart and soul, saying again just as in the walk and other times lately, “I Am here!” I just absorbed those three words this second after typing them and felt the tears welling up so powerfully, these are never tears of sadness, but tears of joy and peace, knowing our Lord loves us, and He isn’t looking beyond us or ever going to forget us, “WE BELONG TO HIM!” It is we children of God who lose sight and go astray from all that it is we need, and could ever dream of, like wanton foolish or even truly rebellious children, that allow themselves to become confused when the “WHOLE TRUTH” is right before them, as they only need to, “ask and the door will be opened,” He is always waiting on the other side for us to enter into our personal relationship knowing and loving Him by just opening our hearts to Him, so we may join Him in our inheritance, to be members of His glorious everlasting loving family, to be as one and loving each other beyond measure or words; for eternity!

God Himself has shown us so much in the last 24 to 36 hours that I see clearly that I should form a compilation of what transpired in order to serve Him in this acknowledgement not for me alone but for so many others who need to come back into the fold, to not be lost or scattered as we see happening all around in the world, that was what was so troubling to me lately and God said, He is on it, and wants me and others to be a part of the solution here on earth; while our work for Him isn’t completed yet.

Thank you Lord again so much for helping to open our inner sight to the TRUTH!

All Glory is Yours Jesus Christ our Lord, Savior and Redeemer.
