An extremely disturbing new article in THE NATION by Jeremy Scahill may well have disturbing propaganda advantages for the Alliance of Civilizations which has been obviously seeking reasons to implement "GROUP OF FRIENDS" (member nations) "Implementation Plans" against "religious extremism" as their "Group of Personalities" (Karen Armstrong, Federico Mayor, Desmond Tutu, John Esposito, et al) have characterized those of us who cling to the "fundamentals" of our faith.
"Crisis = opportunity" to this group and this clearly presents them with a very real one!
Memeorandum, a high level New Age news service tonight carries a story by Jeremy Schahill reporting that anonymous federal informants "fearful for their lives" report that Blackwater founder, Erik Prince, was either directly responsible for or arranged for the murder of informants against his foreign security company. I have been personally leery of the work of that firm, but I am no less leery of the agenda of those speaking against it as they seek to portray it as Christian crusading run amok.
Quoting from the story:
A former Blackwater employee and an ex-US Marine who has worked as a security operative for the company have made a series of explosive allegations in sworn statements filed on August 3 in federal court in Virginia. The two men claim that the company's owner, Erik Prince, may have murdered or facilitated the murder of individuals who were cooperating with federal authorities investigating the company. The former employee also alleges that Prince "views himself as a Christian crusader tasked with eliminating Muslims and the Islamic faith from the globe," and that Prince's companies "encouraged and rewarded the destruction of Iraqi life."
If this is substantiated and/or even remotely believed, how far away can true religious repression for all of us especially those of us believing that "Jesus is the only way" be?
I will be updating this story. Stay in prayer and STAY TUNED!

There has been something terribly wrong with Blackwater for a long time.
Constance,
I posted on the last thread, but apparently got lost.
I had a question about something you may have said previously about using computerese to describe spiritual terms. Am I mistaken? Is it in one of your books? I'm trying to find that.
I also described an event my son went to with Leonard Sweet who seemed to make a reference to Maitreya. I am reposting below:
Constance and all,
Last night I got a call from my son, Troy, who had just seized a last minute opportunity to attend a speaking session with Leonard Sweet. Before I go further, let me explain that Troy has read portions of Constance's books (He would have read all of them if I had let them out of my sight! Now he can read them free on line.) Leonard Sweet, speaker, author and “futurist”, is a leading proponent of Emerging Christianity.
He was very well aware of Sweet and his leanings. We discussed Sweet and I gave him a crash course and included Constance's quotes from David Spangler. Warren Smith in his new book notes Sweet's reference to Spangler in his Quantum Spirituality.
He just called me and gave me a rundown of his notes. He said that at one point Sweet referenced "Christ" and said (Troy's account of Sweet) "I personally believe that Christ is in the world today."
Troy said no one in that room batted an eye, but the comment gave him cold chills, understanding fully the veiled reference to Maitreya.
Troy also said that the premise of Sweet's lecture was contrasting a "Gutenberg world" with a "Google world". The mark of delineation being the invention of the cell phone in 1973. (It made me think of Blavatsky’s secrecy pledge, albeit 1975.) He couched many terms in computerese.
Thanks for any info you can give~ Terri
I must confess that I have no recall of using "computerese" to describe spiritual terms in any of my books. If you could point me to a specific passage . . . I have long taken advantage of computers, BUT apart from maybe "garbage in, garbage out" (GIGO), I can't offhand think of what it might have been, or if it even was . . .
Constance
Hi Constance - thanks for th excellent reporting on Blackwater - an organization that has troubled me for a very long time - they along with other "security" contractors have applied to as many states as will allow them, to set up training facilities - this disturbed me greatly as I am not aware of any reason for the need of such concentrations of mercenaries on our national soil...some states have refused them - thanks be to God - still....
also my thoughts and prayers for you and Barry and my hope that he is recovering...all the best
Melinda
Thanks, Constance.
I thought I remembered that you referred to the NA using computer analogies/terminology in a systems way to describe the things of the spirit.
My problem is that I can't find the reference in any of your books, so thought perhaps you said it in a blog post...??? or in an interview...???
I must be dreaming!! HA! Maybe I'm reading too much of this stuff! LOL!
Thanks for all your work and the many sacrifices you've made at great expense to inform the body of Christ of the dangers that lie ahead.
Blessings!
Just out of curiosity I ran a Google search on Erik Prince + Chuck Colson and found this from October 2007:
http://www.nytimes.com/2007/10/08/washington/08prince.html
"Mr. Prince's sister, Betsy DeVos, married into one of the most politically active conservative families in the Midwest. She has served as the chairwoman of the Republican Party of Michigan, and last year, her husband, Richard DeVos Jr., ran unsuccessfully for governor of Michigan as the Republican candidate. Mr. Prince and his family have given hundreds of thousands of dollars to Republican candidates and other conservative and religious causes, records show. One favorite: the prison ministry of Charles Colson, the former Watergate felon turned Christian prison evangelist."
It certainly is strong reason to suspect ties to "The Family".

I heard this little blurb on our local fox news channel, I looked the story up online. Galveston, Tx. to use wristband bar code to track evacuees.
They also just passed a law that states citizens must evacuate any area deemed a threat by authorities. In coming disasters we are going to be treated like a bunch of cattle, forced to be branded and moved wherever the authorities please!

New Evacuation System
for Galveston
Updated: Tuesday, 04 Aug 2009, 8:28 AM CDT
Published : Tuesday, 04 Aug 2009, 8:28 AM CDT
GALVESTON, Texas - Galveston is relying on a new bar code registration system to help people evacuate if another storm like Hurricane Ike threatens the island.
Sept. 13 is the first anniversary of Ike, which caused billions of dollars in damage to Southeast Texas.
A Galveston County newspaper reported Tuesday that only about 100 people have registered with the city for transportation inland. Nearly 2,000 people required evacuation help during Ike.
Galveston Mayor Lyda Ann Thomas says "those who wait leave the city in a position of not being able to help them because we don't know exactly what their needs are."
Galveston is using a wristband bar code system for tracking evacuees. The bar code is scanned when a person boards a bus and when the individual reaches a shelter.
Betsy Devos is or was a Michigan Republican party chairman -- I haven't kept up with it. Her husband, Richard DeVos, an Amway leader, made an unsuccessful run for Michigan governor in our last election. They are considered very decent people. I believe Betsy and Richard Devos are Dutch Reformed but brother Erik may be Catholic. It would be one more blow to my beloved Michigan.
Constance
You know, I have long been a supporter of George Bush and Dick Cheney, having voted for them twice.
But if this story, and its details are appear really ugly, is true then I think I have finally been brought around to the position that, if not the former President and Vice President, then at least VERY high ranking leaders in their administration need to go to jail.

Rather arrogant, don't ya think?
Did anyone hear the whole interview with Chuck Colson on Focus on the Family yesterday. Much of what I heard seemed good but he also quoted a liberal theologian and I don't remember who he quoted or the exact quote. But he was speaking about how most Christians don't understand what they believe about God and about how big God is. The quote was something about God being the energy that created life and pulsates through the universe and through our cells. (my quote is very loose but that was the gist of the quote).
YesNaSpanishTown,
An ongoing theme is that the New Age religion must be one that can be proven scientifically. There are a large number of organizations, conferences, books, seminars, etc. that are centered around this theme.
Here's an example:
http://www.goshen.edu/religionscience
At the ninth annual Goshen College Religion and Science Conference on March 27-29, the speaker will be Noreen Herzfeld, Professor of Theology and Computer Science at St. John's University in Minnesota.
You probably came across a paper from one of these sources on that theme.
Dorothy
This will give you an idea of the size of the science-religion movement:
http://www.science-spirit.org/scireliglinks.html
Take a look at the list of advertisers at the bottom of the page. The New Age connection is quite clear.
When I was looking at this movement several years ago, it appeared that exploratory work was started in the late 1970s. That's about the time the New Age movement was to surface.

"We will restore science to its rightful place, and wield technology's wonders to raise health care's quality and lower its cost."
"We will harness the Sun and the winds and soil to fuel our cars and run our factories..."
"We will work tirelessly to lessen the nuclear threat, and roll back the spectre of a warming planet."

The man that went into a gym and shot several and then himself said this in his diary,
"Maybe soon, I will see God and Jesus. At least that is what I was told. Eternal life does NOT depend on works. If it did, we will all be in hell," Sodini apparently wrote, before adding later, "I was reading the Bible and The Integrity of God beginning yesterday, because soon I will see them."
Remember those who are in charge will never waste an opportunity.

I had not read this about this tragedy, but IT IS a major flaw in militant "faith" based theology. You disenfranchise "works" at your own peril. The slope is slippery between the idea that "faith" alone will save you and the idea that "faith" will trump your character and actions while on earth.
Hence Islamic Fundamentalists convinced that they will go to heaven despite horrendous actions on earth.
Feel free to carp on all. It entertains me to hear so much wrong.

Never mind. I located the actual online diary. It is clear from the entry in question that he was mentally ill, "distracted" by the clicking of the keyboard, etc.
"August 3, 2009:
I took off today, Monday, and tomorrow to practice my routine and make sure it is well polished. I need to work out every detail, there is only one shot. Also I need to be completely immersed into something before I can be successful. I haven't had a drink since Friday at about 2:30. Total effort needed. Tomorrow is the big day.
Unfortunately I talked to my neighbor today, who is very positive and upbeat. I need to remain focused and absorbed COMPLETELY. Last time I tried this, in January, I chickened out. Lets see how this new approach works.
Maybe soon, I will see God and Jesus. At least that is what I was told. Eternal life does NOT depend on works. If it did, we will all be in hell. Christ paid for EVERY sin, so how can I or you be judged BY GOD for a sin when the penalty was ALREADY paid. People judge but that does not matter. I was reading the Bible and The Integrity of God beginning yesterday, because soon I will see them.
I will try not to add anymore entries because this computer clicking distracts me.
Also, any of the "Practice Papers" left on my coffee table I used or the notes in my gym bag can be published freely. I will not be embarased, because, well, I will be dead. Some people like to study that stuff. Maybe all this will shed insight on why some people just cannot make things happen in their life, which can potentially benefit others."

The following quote, a telling one, may have appeared here before but it is worth reposting as it is revealing of where the Club of Rome is at:
"It would seem that humans need a common motivation, namely a common adversary, to organize and act together in the vacuum; such a motivation must be found to bring the divided nations together to face an outside enemy, either a real one or else one invented for the purpose.
"New enemies therefore have to be identified. New strategies imagined, new weapons devised.
"The common enemy of humanity is man.
"In searching for a new enemy to unite us, we came up with the idea that pollution, the threat of global warming, water shortages, famine and the like would fit the bill. All these dangers are caused by human intervention, and it is only through changed attitudes and behavior that they can be overcome.
"The real enemy then, is humanity itself.
"The old democracies have functioned reasonably well over the last 200 years, but they appear now to be in a phase of complacent stagnation with little evidence of real leadership and innovation
"Democracy is not a panacea. It cannot organize everything and it is unaware of its own limits. These facts must be faced squarely. Sacrilegious though this may sound, democracy is no longer well suited for the tasks ahead. The complexity and the technical nature of many of today’s problems do not always allow elected representatives to make competent decisions at the right time.”

Model UN Article | Activities | Links
Model United Nations: Taking on the Role of Citizen of the World
by Hilary Glazer
Consider this...
Take a moment to consider the following questions. What would your answer be if:
A new friend at school asked you where you live?
A competitor at the state championship cross-country track meet asked where you live?
A student at a national conference in Washington, D.C. asked you where you're from?
A fellow attendee at an international convention held in Geneva asked where you're from?
Your answers are likely to change depending on the identity of the person asking, and where the question is being asked. If a school friend asks you where you live, it's not going to tell him much if you answer "Illinois"—you would probably give a more specific answer, like your street address or neighborhood. If you're in Geneva talking to a person from Japan, then your answer will probably be "the United States." Your answers also reflect your own identity, as a citizen of your city, your state, your nation, and the world.
Are You a Citizen of the World?
Most of us spend our lives focusing on a local level—our families, our schools, our neighborhoods, and our cities. It's easy to lose sight of the fact that we are also citizens of the world. Being a citizen of the world means being aware of global issues, and interacting with citizens at a global level. Global awareness is increasingly important in a world in which some issues—from environmental devastation to nation-building—can only be dealt with through concerted global action.
Model United Nations
Model United Nations (Model UN) programs exist all over the United States as well as in other countries, and approximately 60,000 students participate in Model UN programs across the world every year. Model UN programs exist in various forms and formats—some are conducted solely in classes or schools, and many are statewide and/or regional. There is also an international Model U.N. program, involving students from all over the world, which is held in the home city of the real United Nations, Geneva.
contd.
Contd.
Participants in Model U.N. programs learn how the United Nations works through an advanced form of role-playing. In most programs, students assume the roles of ambassadors from various countries that are member states of the United Nations and take part in a simulated General Assembly session; during the simulation, they try to formulate policies to resolve current international problems that the world faces. While doing so, they gain an understanding of international relations, negotiating, strategizing, and the art of diplomacy, as well as familiarity with the rules and procedures of the real U.N.
To become effective Model U.N. delegates, students must research cultural, economic, and political aspects of their assigned country, and become familiar with its history and foreign policy. Learning about the country's needs and goals aids students in resolving conflicts with other countries, and gives them a better understanding of how nations must work together to achieve peace and prosperity.
Taking part in a Model UN program provides students with an enriching experience on many levels. Catherine (who is now in college) participated in a Model U.N. program through her high school in Chicago. She spoke highly of the program, saying, "It gave me a sense of the practical applications of international politics, I learned a lot about public speaking, and, most importantly, it was a great experience to meet other students from all over the country who cared about what was going on in the world."
A Call to the Citizens of the World
"A new quality of planetary imagination is demanded from all of us as the price of human survival. I am not decrying that form of nationalism that prompts the individual citizen to appreciate and praise the achievements and values that his native land has contributed to the well-being and happiness of the whole human race. Nor am I calling for international homogenization, for I rejoice in cultural and national uniqueness. But I am making a plea—a plea based on these ten years of looking at the human condition from my unique vantage point—for a dual allegiance. This implies an open acceptance of belonging—as in fact we all do—to the human race as well as to our local community or nation. I even believe that the mark of the truly educated and imaginative person facing the twenty-first century is that he feels himself to be a planetary citizen."

The mock U.N. is a wonderful program! I participated when I was in High School as a delegate from France. I can not speak highly enough of it. If your children get a chance to participate you should absolutely make every effort to make it happen!
Dorothy:
Noreen Herzfeld is a mathematician with expertise in the area of Artificial Intelligence who also holds a PhD in theology.
Despite the New-Agey sounding title of one of her books it's not clear that she's actually a new ager. She may simply be exploring scientific questions from a theological perspective, a legitimate line of inquiry for Christians and Jews. There are scientists who study these questions.
Just saying, this woman is probably not the best, and perhaps not even a legitimate (can't say since I haven't read her books), example of the very real, and extremely dangerous, phenomenon you are attempting to highlight.
Baal,
that may be the way of IRIS or what ever god that it is that you worship. But not the one True God.
I am not going to argue about this. The only thing I will say is that one of us is right and one of us is wrong.
By the time you find out you were wrong it will be to late. May God have Mercy on your soul.
Baal,
I attacked you without reason. Although it needed to be said, I misunderstood your post the first time I read it and couldn't delete it.
But I will not apologize for what I said at the end in regards to you worshiping Iris instead of the One True God. Just so that you aren't confused The one TRue God is the God of Abraham, Issac and Jacob.
Thanks JD, for the historic perspective.
That U. Thant quote is both nostalgic and timely. How many of us are old enough to remember that far seeing UN-NGO called, “Planetary Citizens for the World We Choose”? How many of us thought they were kidding back then?
This afternoon a quick google search of the term “planetary citizen” turned up:
Sharon Callahan of Mt. Shasta CA USA
FYI Constance, Ms. Callahan is very likely a disciple of the original “planetary citizen” himself. I assume the master’s remains are buried somewhere on the volcano proper, or perhaps he still resides in some temporary flesh and blood format. I don’t know. But I do know that Ms. Callahan’s bio states she has lived in Mt. Shasta for at least twenty four years, so f you’re still curious as to what may have become of “the Donald”, maybe Ms. Callahan could provide some answers.
I’m sure she’s got a telepathic portal available, but if you get a busy signal, try the phone.

Dawn,
No offense taken. Although you should know that there is one God/Goddess and that is Isis/Osiris Mother of the World.
All blessings to Isis.
It goes without saying that the pagan gods, such as isis and baal and europa and osiris were known to be comfortable with such things as homosexuality, incest
and even beastiality.
So that must be on your agenda, right baaql ?
BAAL (a name interestingly enough that is a synonym for Satan in Anton Szandor LaVey's THE SATANIC BIBLE - "the infernal names)
HERE IS THE LAST WORD FROM THE BIBLE AS PENNED BY THE PROPHET ISAIAH THOUSANDS OF YEARS AGO:
"I AM THE LORD. THAT IS MY NAME. MY GLORY I WILL NOT SHARE WITH ANOTHER. NEITHER WILL I GIVE MY PRAISE TO GRAVEN IMAGES [Baal / Osiris / whatever! included]
CONSTANCE
If Baal ever said he was a "dedicated Christian", I missed it. He has been a most open pagan!

Paul,
"It goes without saying that the pagan gods, such as isis and baal and europa and osiris were known to be comfortable with such things as homosexuality, incest
and even beastiality.
So that must be on your agenda, right baaql"
To continually flaunt your absolute ignorance of religion, spirituality, and history is a bad idea.
From the Coming Into the Day (the so called Negative Confessions which a dead man had to make to enter the afterlife, notice the part about not having lain with men) parts of which are believed to date to some 1000 years prior to the beginning of the writing of the Old Testament:
"Hail, Fenti, who comest forth from Khemenu, I have not stolen.
Hail, Am-khaibit, who comest forth from Qernet, I have not slain men and women.
Hail, Neha-her, who comest forth from Rasta, I have not stolen grain.
Hail, Ruruti, who comest forth from heaven, I have not purloined offerings.
Hail, Arfi-em-khet, who comest forth from Suat, I have not stolen the property of God.
Hail, Neba, who comest and goest, I have not uttered lies.
Hail, Set-qesu, who comest forth from Hensu, I have not carried away food.
Hail, Utu-nesert, who comest forth from Het-ka-Ptah, I have not uttered curses.
Hail, Qerrti, who comest forth from Amentet, I have not committed adultery, I have not lain with men.
Hail, Her-f-ha-f, who comest forth from thy cavern, I have made none to weep.
Hail, Basti, who comest forth from Bast, I have not eaten the heart.
Hail, Ta-retiu, who comest forth from the night, I have not attacked any man."
If you had ANY knowledge of ancient middle eastern religion you would know that most of them, including that of Jehovah, and Isis had problems with homosexuality.
Although I must ask, given your interesting fixation on the subject:
Do you swing that way?
Constance,
As you are no doubt aware, LeVey's "Satanic" bible was written as LeVey's little joke that anyone could invent a religion and get people to pay to be a part of it. As a general rule, he is not only not a good source on the Occult, but simply not a source at all.
As for the name word Baal, you are also no doubt aware that it does not refer to any specific god. It is a Hebrew and/or Canaanite honorific meaning something along the lines of "lord" and is used in various forms in the Old Testament when referring to various and sundry gods, Kings, and great men.
The Prophets of Baal are, properly translated Prophets of The Lord.
Nonetheless for your entertainment:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HVHnYSk-y8o
Greg,
Oh, please. As I have said before and will say again I became quite disenchanted with Christianity.
And your ancient ancestors were human beings just like you, your wife, kids, mother, and father.
They most certainly were not filled with "the venom of satan". They were seeking answers to the same spiritual questions you are (in the case of the last post, they were doing it 1000 years before Jehovah "breathed" the first of his word, so tell me Greg, how would these people have known any of it???) and in many cases they came up with the same answers Jehovah dictated starting a millennium later.
Further, if you even care, the ancient Hebrews would have been completely familiar with the teachings of Ancient Egyptian religion, many of them studied it while in Egypt and in all probability many worshiped Egyptian Gods in Egyptian Temples (see your Bible for Jehovah's reaction).
The Egyptian religion was quite beautiful which may have been a part of the problem with Jewish captives continuing to worship these Gods for some time after their release. (Again see your Bible for the details)
In any case, I fail to see how sheer ignorance of things talked about in your Bible will help you.
For your continued entertainment, the continuation of the "Baal" scene where the Prophets fail to get a response from Baal:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iZd73wad2Cg
They live on their own planet. That's why It's usually a waste of time trying to reason with die hard pagans. Such people create their own rules, their own version, (or vision) of reality. Although I was never really a "pagan", I was a seeker myself, an "agnostic" who wandered around in the wilderness for more than twenty years. Having rejected the doctrines of men, I sought answers in the earth and stars and alternative religions.
"Planetary Initiatives"...."For the World we Choose"....think about it.
If the New Age had a conscience, it might be reflected in men like Donald Keys.
It is understandable that Keys was attracted to Mt. Shasta, a place of sublime natural beauty, albeit a landscape prone to unpredictable displays of immense power, at once both horribly destructive, and beautifully creative.
Keys was a man in search of perfection. His personal vision of the world held no poverty, no pain, no want. Like many idealists, Keys vision of a planetary collective didn't jive with the world outside his UN office. I believe Keys became convinced he needed to join with others in finding perfection within himself before his great "mission" of "serving" the world could have effect. Such people really believe they are on the road to achieving, acquiring, or recognizing the divine within themselves albeit faithfully ascending towards some conscious “collective" of like minded masters.
Unfortunately, ALL New Agers reject the One True God in search of their own kingdom, one devoid of any "divine" presence save such that fits their own worldview. All "gods" of the New Age, by strict definition, have to fit into the "believers" own mind, their own self image of the divine.
Here's a quote from an article in the online edition of the Mount Shasta Magazine:
“Mount Shasta is one such place imbued with the vision that life is perfectible. Happiness, wisdom, peace and compassion are attainable, not only for the self, but for the larger Self of which humanity is the mirror.”
[Peter Mt. Shasta- Mt. Shasta and the New Shambhala]
http://www.mountshastamagazine.com/mystique/
Such a plethora of perfected little gods just doesn't leave room for the very Creator of Mount Shasta Himself. As far as most New Agers go, any alternative to the One True God is just fine and dandy. They find no hypocrisy in demanding that everyone else be tolerant of their "alternative deities", no matter how vile, while they themselves reject the One True God.
That, in a nutshell, is what the New Age is all about.
Unfortunately for Keys and all other New Age pagans, the only mystical place that fits their idealist vision of "Shambhala" is a place utterly devoid of the presence of the One True God.
No one should want to go there.
Old Man of the Ski,
Beautifully and powerfully said.
THANK YOU!

GOP Senator: White House Encroaching on First Amendment
ABC News’ Rick Klein reports:
A Republican senator is calling for the White House to suspend a new project that asks members of the public to flag “fishy” claims about President Obama’s health care plans, arguing that it raises privacy concerns and will serve to chill free speech.
Sen. John Cornyn, R-Texas, is sending a letter to the White House today asking the president to “cease this program immediately” -- or to explain how Americans’ privacy will be protected if e-mails are forwarded to the White House as requested.
“I am not aware of any precedent for a President asking American citizens to report their fellow citizens to the White House for pure political speech that is deemed ‘fishy’ or otherwise inimical to the White House’s political interests,” Cornyn writes
“I can only imagine the level of justifiable outrage had your predecessor asked Americans to forward emails critical of his policies to the White House. I suspect that you would have been leading the charge in condemning such a program -- and I would have been at your side denouncing such heavy-handed government action.”
Yesterday, White House director of new media Macon Phillips wrote a blog posting urging readers to flag questionable claims about health care proposals.
“There is a lot of disinformation about health insurance reform out there, spanning from control of personal finances to end of life care. These rumors often travel just below the surface via chain emails or through casual conversation. Since we can’t keep track of all of them here at the White House, we’re asking for your help. If you get an email or see something on the web about health insurance reform that seems fishy, send it to flag@whitehouse.gov.”
Cornyn specifically asks whether those who quote the president’s past statements -- such as his 2003 statement that he was a “proponent” of single-payer care -- qualifies as “disinformation.” He also asks what actions the White House would take against those engaging in “fishy” speech.
Constance - I'm a long time reader of your blog. I do not come here to demonic spew about Isis.
very disappointed
I have a confession to make and need help. I've been too embarrassed to ask before. I've finally decided to get over it and ask for help. Maybe someone else has the same question.
Constance often recommends "archiving". How does one archive web pages? I can cut and paste articles. But the web pages baffle me.
Thanks.
Terri
By "archiving," I mean storing to disk and then to removable storage media such as backup hard drive, flash drive, CD roms, DVD's, etc. It would probably require too much paper to be practical. One way to do it is to print to .pdf form. I use Acrobat Pro, but Acrobat standard or other .pdf file creators might work equally well. If you have MicroSoft Home and Office, there is a OneNote program whcih is very useful. You can tell the computer to save it there, OR the "cut and paste" to your word processor could work just as well. Hope this helps.
Constance
I have expressed my opinion on Baal's demonic spews and I fully concur that it is BAD nad have said so frequently. Frequently, at this point, I take BAAL as EXHIBIT "A" or EXHIBIT 1 that we are in very serious time indeed, the times when "some shall depart from the faith and give heed to seducing spirits and doctrines of devils." Obviously the demonic has considered us of sufficient importance to come calling here.

And Joash said unto all that stood against him, Will ye plead for Baal? will ye save him? he that will plead for him, let him be put to death whilst [it is yet] morning: if he [be] a god, let him plead for himself, because [one] hath cast down his altar. Jdg 6:31
And Elijah came unto all the people, and said, How long halt ye between two opinions? if the LORD [be] God, follow him: but if Baal, [then] follow him. And the people answered him not a word. 1 Ki 18:21
And Elijah said unto them, Take the prophets of Baal; let not one of them escape. And they took them: and Elijah brought them down to the brook Kishon, and slew them there. 1 Ki 18:40
For he served Baal, and worshipped him, and provoked to anger the LORD God of Israel, according to all that his father had done. 1 Ki 22:53
Thus Jehu destroyed Baal out of Israel 2Ki 10:28
And he put down the idolatrous priests, whom the kings of Judah had ordained to burn incense in the high places in the cities of Judah, and in the places round about Jerusalem; them also that burned incense unto Baal, to the sun, and to the moon, and to the planets, and to all the host of heaven. 2 Ki 23:5
Will ye steal, murder, and commit adultery, and swear falsely, and burn incense unto Baal, and walk after other gods whom ye know not; Jer 7:9
will also stretch out mine hand upon Judah, and upon all the inhabitants of Jerusalem; and I will cut off the remnant of Baal from this place, Zeph 1:4
But what saith the answer of God unto him? I have reserved to myself seven thousand men, who have not bowed the knee to [the image of] Baal. Rom 11:4

Sure hope nobody around here is kissing our visiting "BAAL". If they do, better need a very strong mouth wash!
By "archiving," I mean storing to disk and then to removable storage media such as backup hard drive, flash drive, CD roms, DVD's, etc. It would probably require too much paper to be practical. One way to do it is to print to .pdf form. I use Acrobat Pro, but Acrobat standard or other .pdf file creators might work equally well. If you have MicroSoft Home and Office, there is a OneNote program whcih is very useful. You can tell the computer to save it there, OR the "cut and paste" to your word processor could work just as well. Hope this helps.

EU equality law is an 'instrument of oppression', Roman Catholic bishops warn
A proposed European Union equality law has been branded an "instrument of oppression" by Britain's Roman Catholic leaders.
By Simon Caldwell
Published: 7:01AM BST 03 Aug 2009
The bishops of England, Wales and Scotland denounced the European Commission's planned Equal Treatment Directive as "wholly unacceptable" because, they said, it would force Christians to act against their consciences.
The directive is aimed at harmonising and enforcing a ban across the 27-member bloc on discrimination on grounds of sexual orientation, age, religious belief and disability outside the scope of employment law.
But the bishops say the directive will simply have the result of sharply curtailing the rights of religious liberty and freedom of expression.
They say they will be powerless to stop witches from hiring out church property, for instance, or from insisting that people at Church events behave in a way consistent with Christian teaching.
Monsignor Andrew Summersgill, the general secretary of the Bishops' Conference of England and Wales, said that the Church "recognises that groups which do not agree with its teaching should be free to organise themselves and to propagate their views as they wish".
"What the Church is seeking from this directive is simply the right to maintain its own teaching and activities with integrity, according to its own ethos," he said in a written submission to a public consultation.
He said that the organisers of a Catholic conference, for instance, would be legally obliged to make double rooms available to gay and unmarried couples as well as for married heterosexuals.
He said: "At this point the EU would effectively be dictating to religious bodies what their faith does or does not require - a wholly unacceptable position."
The definition of harassment in the directive will also mean that any person who decided they were "offended" by an expression of Christianity could bring a case against the Churches.
Various pressure groups are likely to use the provisions of the directive to curtail the expression of views they disagree with by the simple expedient of declaring themselves to be offended.
"Homosexual groups campaigning for same-sex marriage may declare themselves to be offended by the presentation of the Catholic Church's moral teaching on marriage," he said, and "an atheist may be offended by religious pictures in an art gallery, or a Muslim may be offended by any picture representing the human form".
The directive fails to explain how conflicting rights could be reconciled, leading to fears that the EU will subordinate the rights of some groups, especially Christians, to the rights of others.
"If the directive is unable to provide a means of balancing those competing rights there is a risk that practical implementation may effectively turn the directive into an instrument of oppression," said Monsignor Summersgill.
EU directives are overarching laws introducing a minimum standard which all member states must meet.
A directive can only become law if all member states agree to it at a meeting of the council of the EU.
The European Parliament voted in favour of the proposed directive in April but MEPs put forward changes to the text that would reduce protection for churches and faith schools.
They also recommend deleting an assurance that the directive did not apply to national laws on marital status or abortion.
The EU council will now have to consider whether to adopt, amend or reject the directive.
Sweden, which holds the EU presidency, has indicated that it wishes to introduce the directive in November.
I just received this information. The report is from Nov. '08, but it was new to me.

From the Drudge Report (8/6/09):
Texas Sen. John Cornyn, accusing the White House of compiling an "enemies list," has asked President Barack Obama to stop an effort to collect "fishy" information Americans see about a health care overhaul.
Cornyn, who leads the Republicans' Senate campaign effort, said Wednesday in a letter to Obama that he's concerned that citizen engagement on the issue could be "chilled." He also expressed alarm that the White House could end up collecting electronic information on its critics.
"I can only imagine the level of justifiable outrage had your predecessor asked Americans to forward e-mails critical of his policies to the White House," Cornyn wrote.
Also Online Blog: Politics

Cornyn was responding to a post on the White House's blog Wednesday in which users are asked to help stop the spread of disinformation about legislation to overhaul health insurance. The post offers an e-mail address, flag@whitehouse.gov, for users to forward anything "on the web about health insurance reform that seems fishy."
The White House said the post was merely designed to fight "intentionally misleading" information in the health care debate.
"We want to be sure people have the facts about health insurance reform that will lower costs, protect consumers from insurance regulations that deny them coverage and assure quality and affordable health care for all Americans," said Adam Abrams, a White House spokesman. He said no lists or sources of the information would be compiled.
In his letter, Cornyn asked that the effort cease immediately and that the administration inform Congress what it's doing to ensure that names and electronic information about citizens weighing in on health care are not collected.
Kevin McLaughlin, a spokesman for the senator, said that the office had received no response from the administration.
He said Cornyn had not yet considered whether he would push for legislation to address the matter if necessary.
Maybe there is also a "spiritual enemies list" -- with the daily denomic attacks happening right here on this blog!!!
Of course, I meant "demonic" attacks.
A person who reads the blog contacted me and asked if there was a "smoking gun" connecting Solana with the New Age movement.
I sent him the family connections. I haven't sent the Fire Crystal Conference information yet. I also sent the information on Mark Satin's book and Radical Middle website for an overview of New Age politics. He wanted to know about the Barcelona Process. He also knew about the Cub of Budapest.
If someone asked any of you about a "smoking gun" connecting Solana to New Age, how would you answer it? Is there information I've missed? What have you found to be the most convincing piece of information. Best to stick to information published here or elsewhere.
The individual has been posting on a Christian website where the readers are not aware of the details of the NA and seem to be starting from the beginning.

Thanks for the information on the Catholic Bishops stance against the EU law and I agree with their stance -- it is clearly dangerous to faith and I have had many of the same concerns about similar legislation here in the USA. I understand that in one state the Catholics had to close their adoption agency because they would not recommend homosexual adoptions.

Constance: There was an article posted on WORLDNETDAILY titled WHAT? MUSLIM LEADER WANTS TEMPLE REBUILT. In this article author Joel Richardson states that the anti-christ is to come out of the Muslim Empire & not of the Revived Roman Empire as most Christians believe. I dont know if you have read this article or not. Your comment would be appreciated. I am not sure how to post the url?
I just wanted to help shed a little light. Baal doews not properly translate, "Lord"' but rather, "master". Also if you were to study history, you would find that every prophecy that the bible has made to date haws come to pass. No other holy book of ANY other religion can make that claim. The bible has also been proven historically accurate, again no other holy book can make that claim. When any pagan looks in his heart of hearts he will find that what he is pursuing can not nor will it ever bring true and lasting peace. I slao noticed that the entrance into the afterlife was dependent upon a set of good works. Please undrestand, there is one God and He is holy and perfect. The only way into His presence is perfection, which we cannot attain. This is what necessitated the sacrifice of His own dear Son, Jesus the Christ. If you think you have been a good person all you have to do is look into your heart and mind and see that if you have even thought an evil thought against your fellow man you are guilty of breaking the whole Law of God and ylu are worthy of Hell. You see God does not just judge our actions, but our thoughts as well. We all stand before a Holy God guilty. The wonder of it all is that He came down to take our punishment upon Himself. There are many men who woukd be gods, but there is only one God that would be man. Praise you Jesus, for you have taken our sin upon youself and given us your righteousness. You alone are worthy of praise and honor, power and dominion, worship and glory. There is none other name by which we MUST be saved.
ASI
ASI - depending on the context the word can be translated as lord OR master.
So bull,
Since you're into Egyptian and not Greek gods and goddesses, and they weren't into homosexuality,
(according to you), then does that mean you only accept the Egyptian incestuous gods?
Do you follow the Ra that inspired almost all the many egyptian pharohs to marry their sisters, to the point of them being sickly and retarded
as the one true God designed things to be ? In fact isn't that the reason why the entire dynasty died out, because incest always leads to disease and mental retardation of varying sorts, as the Bible teaches ?
How's that working for you ?
Do you have children ?
I know you're a dedicated teacher of young people...

LIBERAL CATHOLIC CHURCH
.....The founding bishop of the Liberal Catholic Church was J. I. Wedgwood of the Wedgwood China family, who became a theosophist and was ordained as a priest in the Old Catholic movement on July 22, 1913 by Arnold Harris Mathew (whose membership in the Union of Utrecht was terminated in 1910). Archbishop Mathew was a resigned Roman Catholic priest who had been consecrated by Archbishop Gerardus Gul of Utrecht on April 28, 1908 and appointed as the first Old Catholic bishop in Britain. Thus the Liberal Catholic Church claims to trace its apostolic succession back to Rome through Old Catholicism. In the end Mathew came to cease all ties with the Utrecht Union of Churches to vow allegiance once more to the Roman Catholic Church (this did not happen) and to advise those of his flock who were Theosophists to resign membership of the Theosophical Society Adyar. This advice was not taken seriously by many of the church's members. Wedgwood was consecrated to the episcopate on February 13, 1916 by Bishop Frederick Samuel Willoughby (who had been consecrated by Bishop Matthew), and started the organisation that would later become the Liberal Catholic Church of which Wedgwood became the first Presiding Bishop. Bishop Wedgwood published articles within the Theosophical Society on ceremonial work. These writings interested Charles Webster Leadbeater, an alleged clairvoyant and Anglican priest who was consecrated as a Liberal Catholic bishop in 1916. C. W. Leadbeater became the 2nd Presiding Bishop....read entire article.....

Paul,
I love that you are so interested in learning and dialogue! Perhaps I'll have you worshiping Isis yet!
It is certainly true that there was inbreeding among Egyptian Royalty and marriages as close as brother and sister. This however, had nothing to do with Egyptian religious beliefs, but with the eternal imperative among royalty to preserve the purity of the royal genetic line.
One need only consider the enormous number of Christian royal families which inbred themselves to extinction, starting perhaps, with the EXTREMELY Catholic Spanish Habsburgs, not of course to highlight the degree to which Christ encourages royalty to marry and have sexual relations with their close relatives, although this is undoubtedly true, but because it is the subject of an excellent study just completed. To wit:
The Role of Inbreeding in the Extinction of a European Royal Dynasty by Gonzalo Alvarez, Francisco C. Ceballos, and Celsa Quinteiro

Not that I wish to pick on Catholics, since if you wish to research the subject yourself Paul, you will find plenty of Protestants who inbred themselves to death too!
I must say I appreciate the new spirit of intellectual inquiry and collegial exchange of ideas on this blog!

Baal
Bull,
You said: " It is certainly true that there was inbreeding among Egyptian Royalty and marriages as close as brother and sister. This however, had nothing to do with Egyptian religious beliefs, but with the eternal imperative among royalty to preserve the purity of the royal genetic line."
That's a brilliant piece of misdirection, but your initial statement that the "eternal directive" has nothing to do with religion is like a foundation of pure sand under the well rehearsed ammunition that follows.
Your next paragraph finds you out in waters over your head with something about the Lord's teachings to royalty on marriage ?? Where do you find that ? FYI: You know, Jesus comes way way after Moses.
buul,
I haven't highlighted or pasted a single one of your
links, and I'm sure I won't be doing so. I wouldn't want to get a virus.
But you're right about some things.
I guess the Illuminati itself would be a good example, having inbred with the inbred as they have.
However I have no intention of dialoguing with you any more, like the academic you pretend to be or otherwise.
To Baal,
the word baal is never translated LORD proper, but lord. This is only when refering to a magistrate or a king. at all other times when refering to a deity it is master. It is sometimes referencing the LORD, for instance Baal Perezim, or master of breakthroughs. But it is never used to refer to Yaweh's covanent names with Israel. the baals required human swacrifice, Yaweh never did. The only human sacrifice He ever permitted was His own, when He went to the cross in our place. Tell me did Isis/ Osiris ever take on flesh and give him/herself a ransom for many. I think not! Jesus is the only God to give Himself up for His creation, no other god has or ever could!
ASI
It is unsurprising that you do not read well given the extreme and cultic version of the Christian faith you been sucked into: it has an utter abhorrence of knowledge, learning, and the intellect. All, by the way, on display in your last post.
However, I wrote "eternal imperative" not "eternal directive", two completely different ideas. Nice use of misdirection on your part. Change the words of your opponent when you can't refute them.
Nice.
However, as a member of Skull and Bones, class of 1989, and as I feel sympathetic with the Illuminati, a group much maligned by your kind, I must say you are certainly going to enjoy the New World Order.

Congratulations Mr. Thompson!
You have one of the more hate filled sites aimed at "Christian" apologetics I have perused in several weeks.
Also:
The description of Answering-Islam.org as an "apologetics website aimed at interfaith dialogue between Christians and Muslims" is one of the more amusing bits of nonsense I've run into in a couple of months.
What you meant to write was "apologetics website explaining why everything in Islam is wrong and Muhammad was a fraud"
You people do realize who so many dislike you. Right?
Baal,
you show yourself for who you really are. You are nothing short of a worshipper of the god of htis world, Satan himself. You will shortly find that things will not turn out the way you think they will. People in high places rarely have any true loyalty, they tend to remove whomever they see as extra weight or an obstacle. You may be one of those who finds themselves in thone of these catagories. You are spirituallya nd intellectually blind and deaf. If you had open eyes and ears you would at the very least approach these subjects with humility. As it is you are overcome with pride and arrogance in thinking that you are somehow superior to or at the very least more,"in the know" than these other people on this blog. You speak as though you have had some personal encounter with knowledge we have not. I assure you if you had encountered true Knowledge, then you would not give yourself to this demon called isis/osiris. May the God to whom I belong, open your eyes that you might see. May He grant that you turn from your empty ways and accept the truth.
ASI
Something just occured to me . We should no longer speak to this Baal. Jesus said, "cast not your pearls before swine." I would love to be able to tell him something that would convince him of the Truth, but all we really can do is to speak the truth and let God work. After all isn't it the Holy Spirit's job to convict of sin. I hope I have not said anything out of turn, I just wanted to share that with you all. I enjoy this blogspot and the opportunity to interact with all of you and glean so very much from what the Lord has given to Constance.

Baal,
I certainly cannot argue much with the youtube by Manly Hall. I too am much concerned about all of our inablities to truly love one another. My first thought was to direct you to 1Cor. 13 which of course you know. Obviously the Philosophical Research Society http://www.prs.org/bible.htm has written extensively about an esoteric and gnostic interpretation of the Bible. Instead I think I'll post a discussion about "love" from my favorite philosopher/saint Oswald Chambers:
I point you to his philosophy of perfection published in pdf format at: http://www.sermonindex.net/modules/newbb/viewtopic_pdf.php?topic_id=4882&forum=34
Of particular note to you might be interested in editor comment that John Wesley in studying the mystics said - John Wesley complained to William Law* that when he was an earnest inquirer he had been directed to the mystic writers, and so had missed the basic truth of salvation by faith in Jesus Christ. We all need to know the initial experience of Christ as the Propitiation for our sins, and as the One who has brought to a world of sinners the abundance of grace and the gift of righteousness. Afterwards we may find, as Wesley did, much light in such writers as the above upon how God works in us to will and to do of His good pleasure, and how we can work out our own salvation (Philippians 2:12-13).
Chambers, O. 1996, c1941. If thou wilt be perfect : Talks on spiritual philosophy. Marshall, Morgan & Scott: London
Finally Chambers reference to love was:
The Philosophy of Perfection
But when that which is perfect is come, that which is in part shall be done away. 1 Corinthians 13:10 (rv)
“That which is perfect” is a Being, who hath comprehended and included all things in Himself and His own Substance, and without whom, and besides whom, there is no true Substance, and in whom all things have their Substance.
That Which Is Perfect
The Bible reveals that “that which is perfect” is a Being. God is the only Perfect Being; no human being is perfect apart from God. We make the blunder of applying to human beings terms which the Bible applies to God only. Our Lord in replying to the rich young ruler††, who used the term “Good Master,”†† said, “None is good save One, even God”†† (rv). There is only one Being to whom the term “good” can be applied, and that is the Perfect Being, the term cannot be applied to good men. In the Sermon on the Mount our Lord places God as the model for Christian character; He does not say, “Be good as a man is good,” but—“Ye therefore shall be perfect, as your heavenly Father is perfect” (rv). We are to be perfect as our Father in heaven is perfect, not by struggle and effort, but by the impartation of that which is Perfect. We are accustomed to the use of the word “perfect” in connection with our relationship to God (e.g. Philippians 3:12-15), but here the word is used in a bigger sense, viz. perfect as God is perfect.
“Love” is another term we are apt to apply wrongly. We emphasise perfect love towards our fellow-men; the Bible emphasises perfect love to God. Love is an indefinable word, and in the Bible it is always used as directly characteristic of God—“God is love.” In Romans 5:5, Paul says that “the love of God is shed abroad in our hearts,” not the power to love God, but the love of God.
Or take Truth. The Truth is our Lord Himself, consequently any part of the truth may be a lie unless it leads to a relation to the Truth. Salvation, sanctification, the Second Coming are all parts of the Truth, but none is the Truth; and they are only parts of the Truth as they are absorbed by the Truth, our Lord Himself. We are not told to expound the way of salvation, or to teach sanctification, but to lift up Jesus, i.e. to proclaim the truth.
Chambers, O. 1996, c1941. If thou wilt be perfect : Talks on spiritual philosophy. Marshall, Morgan & Scott: London
I agree with your issue - all you need is love but what do we do with our "imperfection"
In Truth
Robert
Manly P. Hall was an active Theosophist who had a strong profession of faith in Krishnamurti as "Messiah." He also carried the plates by William Law on "the illumination of Jacob Boehme" in his book.
Baal has just told me a great deal of where he is coming from. Our retirement plan is distinctly greater than any "wealth" he claims here.
Constance
Susanna,
Just want all to make sure they understand that Colson does not just have "ties" to the Family - Doug Coe was the one who met him when he returned from prison and set him up in the beginning of Prison Fellowhip. Read Colsons book - Life Sentance. Colson/The Fellowship is Prison Fellowship. Without the Family it's hard to see how Colson would have succeeded to the degree he has. Of course we might also argue that God is in it and thats why - clearly good work is done with prisoners and Christ but .... its the "under the radar" that bothers me.
Constance,
Have I made you nervous yet about my oneness and perfection talk? I don't mean to be controversial (well not exactly) however I really believe its key to why people like Baal are so disgusted with Christians and why organizations like the family are perfectly comfortable with partnering with evil (like Christ's tempation) as they seek to accomplish good.
Rob
Baal,
One last thing - thought you might enjoy what Bobby has to say about your diety - don't quite know what it means - but I do know he was a seeker too. Doesn't sound like he came out quite satisfied.
Music by Bob Dylan, Words by Bob Dylan and Jacques Levy
1975,1985 Ram's Horn Music
I married Isis on the fifth day of May,
But I could not hold on to her very long.
So I cut off my hair and I rode straight away
For the wild unknown country where I could not go wrong.
I came to a high place of darkness and light.
The dividing line ran through the center of town.
I hitched up my pony to a post on the right,
Went in to a laundry to wash my clothes down.
A man in the corner approached me for a match.
I knew right away he was not ordinary.
He said, "Are you lookin' for somethin' easy to catch?"
I said, "I got no money." He said, "That ain't necessary."
We set out that night for the cold in the North.
I gave him my blanket, he gave me his word.
I said, "Where are we goin'?" He said we'd be back by the fourth.
I said, "That's the best news that I've ever heard."
I was thinkin' about turquoise, I was thinkin' about gold,
I was thinkin' about diamonds and the world's biggest necklace.
As we rode through the canyons, through the devilish cold,
I was thinkin' about Isis, how she thought I was so reckless.
How she told me that one day we would meet up again,
And things would be different the next time we wed,
If I only could hang on and just be her friend.
I still can't remember all the best things she said.
We came to the pyramids all embedded in ice.
He said, "There's a body I'm tryin' to find.
If I carry it out it'll bring a good price."
'Twas then that I knew what he had on his mind.
The wind it was howlin' and the snow was outrageous.
We chopped through the night and we chopped through the dawn.
When he died I was hopin' that it wasn't contagious,
But I made up my mind that I had to go on.
I broke into the tomb, but the casket was empty.
There was no jewels, no nothin', I felt I'd been had.
When I saw that my partner was just bein' friendly,
When I took up his offer I must-a been mad.
I picked up his body and I dragged him inside,
Threw him down in the hole and I put back the cover.
I said a quick prayer and I felt satisfied.
Then I rode back to find Isis just to tell her I love her.
She was there in the meadow where the creek used to rise.
Blinded by sleep and in need of a bed,
I came in from the East with the sun in my eyes.
I cursed her one time then I rode on ahead.
She said, "Where ya been?" I said, "No place special."
She said, "You look different." I said, "Well, not quite."
She said, "You been gone." I said, "That's only natural."
She said, "You gonna stay?" I said, "Yeah, I jes might."
Isis, oh, Isis, you mystical child.
What drives me to you is what drives me insane.
I still can remember the way that you smiled
On the fifth day of May in the drizzlin' rain.
Greg,
Not me - although a Dylan affectionado for the last 2 years - I've listened to most of his songs but have yet to really attempt to learn anything on the guitar except that which I heard as a boy - The Times They are A Changing. Of course Bob says now - "people are crazy and times are strange I used to care but . . things have changed." Maybe not but Bob did - I have read about him and convinced that he is a believer.
By the way read your blog with Baal's post - my prayer to you and yours with your current suffering. Baal's post proves he is human with a heart even if he doesn't see the world in the same light - I dare say in the truth that we enjoy in the illumination of the Holy Spirit.
Blessings and Peace to you

Robert,
Thank you for the additional clarification and for the information on Colson's book.
One point I particularly wanted to emphasize is that many people don't realize that apart from Chuck Colson's ties with the Fellowship Foundation (a.k.a. The Family)and with IONS co-founder Paul N. Temple who funds The Family through his Three Swallows Foundation, there is also a connection between Chuck Colson and the DeVos family who also funds his ministry.
By the way, check out the news videos about Doug Coe and The Family at the "Conservative Babylon" site:

Cultbuster Rick Ross has devoted a whole page of his Website to AMWAY/ALTICOR.

I don't necessarily always agree with what Rick Ross has to say, but unless I missed something, I think you will be able to see for yourself that his AMWAY/ALTICOR page is a collection of news articles with no editorializing on his part.
http://www.rickross.com/groups/amway.html
It is my understanding that one of the reasons why Dick DeVos lost the election when he ran for Governor in Michigan was because of the public perception that he had allegedly "outsourced" Alticor jobs to China. DeVos denied this saying that under Chinese law, the only products he could sell in China had to also be made in China.
Nevertheless, there were other AMWAY issues that were comong under public scrutiny.

Constance,
Right below the block where you type in comments it says "You can use some HTML tags, such as ...." You can use these tags to make things bold or italicize. It would not let me underline so the capabilities are limited. Do a google search for HTML tags and you can find examples of how to do this. I'm not sure how to actually type in an example to show you because it tries to use the tag rather than display the actual characters.
Constance:
to bold:
type in "<" followed by "b" followed by ">" with no spaces in between (and no quotes) at the beginning of the text you wish to bold. At the end type "<" followed by "/" followed by "b" followed by ">" to close it.
To italicize follow the same procedure replacing the 'b' with an 'i.'
Thanks all for the tech advice re: bold and italics. I've been wondering how to do that too!
< Test > :
Bold
Italic
< / test >
Looks like this without spaces:
< i > Italic < / i >
< b > Bold < / b >
You're welcome!
To both bold and italicize as above you put both tags 'b' and 'i' as I've shown in the previous comment in the beginning and at the end.
Actually, you do not need to put end tags if there's no other text to follow or if you wish to bold, italicize, or bold/italicize the entire text.
Anon:
There ya go! You've made it simpler than my example. I wasn't sure what would happen if put spaces in between...

Hello
< / Test >
Your welcome, Craig :-)
Constance,
Before the passage you want to italicize, you type what is called your "on tag" with the letter "i" standing for "italicize."......
At the end of the passage in order to close the italicized section you type in what is called your "off tag" with forward slash before the letter "i".........
When you publish the message the tags disappear, but the passage appears italicized.
Here is the Free Republic HTML Sandbox that someone was kind enough to share with me. It has instructions for all kinds of text variations that you might find useful - including the italics tag instructions:

Constance,
Dick and Betsy DeVos attend Mars Hill church in Grandville, Michigan. You probably are aware that the head guy there is Rob Bell, one of the leaders of the Emerging Church movement. I find this quite an interesting and disturbing connection.
http://www.watchmanbiblestudy.com/News/2008/news08_JavierSolana.htm
Could you be thinking of something Peter Lemesurier wrote:
"This reminds me of the Peter Lemesurier’s blueprint for bringing forth Maitreya. In the Armageddon Script one of Lemesurier’s themes is the use of religion against itself:
"Rather than attempt to create a new vision, therefore, the task which presses most urgently upon us at the present time would seem to be to investigate those ancient prophecies which seem to swamp our world of modern vision, to research their origins and implications, to observe their extraordinary effects throughout history and above all to watch the successive efforts of those concerned to control and cope with the forces thus unleashed...we may finally find ourselves in a position not merely to anticipate the likely flow of future events …but actually to exercise a conscious control over those events by co-operating with, rather than opposing, the prophecies...Only then, perhaps, having, as it were, exorcised the former visions, shall we be in a position to create new visions of our own, and thus go on to create a 'new heaven and a new earth' of our own devising." p. 30"
Dorothy
Hi Dorothy,
The passage you quoted from Lemesurier’s "Armageddon Script" is redolent of a now - rare early nineteen sixties book entitled The Passover Plot: A New Interpretation of the Life and Death of Jesus by Hugh J. Schonfield.
http://tinyurl.com/nvoj8k
Here is the blurb from Amazon:
Editorial Reviews
Product Description
"Fascinating . . . lucidly written and carefully documented, it is a valuable addition to the library of anyone seeking to understand the origins of Christian faith."-Chicago Tribune
Finally back in print, this special 40th anniversary edition of Dr. Schonfield's international multimillion-copy bestseller is set to rock the establishment view of the life of Jesus all over again.
There is probably no other figure in modern Jewish historical research who is more controversial or famous than Hugh J. Schonfield, who once said: "The scholars deplore that I have spilled the beans to the public. Several of them have said to me, 'You ought to have kept this just among ourselves, you know.'"
What he did to "spill the beans" was present historical evidence suggesting that Jesus was a mortal man, a young genius who believed himself to be the Messiah and deliberately and brilliantly planned his entire ministry according to the Old Testament prophecies-even to the extent of plotting his own arrest, crucifixion and resurrection.
Since Schonfield's death in 1988, his popularity and the interest in his prodigious work, which included over 40 books, has drawn increasing attention, particularly outside Judaism. In fact, it is probably fair to say that his contribution to the Gentile understanding of Jewish aspirations among those within the Christian cultural framework has been without parallel. In true Christian tradition, he has also been the cause of much contention.
In the wake of resurgent interest in religious history spurred by Mel Gibson's The Passion of the Christ and Dan Brown's The Da Vinci Code, this 40th anniversary edition of The Passover Plot is set to engage a completely new generation of readers searching for truth.
Born in London in 1901, Dr. Hugh J. Schonfield was nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize for his services toward international humanity.

Suzanne,
I found the information by doing a search using the words "Solana, ancient prophecies, new vision." I took he word "world" out on a whim.
The idea that Jesus was just a man was probably around in the Jewish community since the beginning. There were a lot of men claiming to be a messiah at the time. It wasn't a new idea when Schonfield picked it up. It probably had a long history in the academic community.
The Armageddon Script suggests that prophecies will be recreated to get their power out of the way so that those pushing NA can move on to their "new vision."
All of this might have been easier to pull off before the internet. Without the internet people were dependent on the MSM who might have reported in wonder on the "strange happening." Creme with his disappearing Maitreya appears like a fringe nut no matter what he claims or what his following is.
I can't see a majority of Christians around the world standing in awe of some manipulated messiah because of something reported in the MSM which isn't trusted any more. In spite of great planning, the New Agers weren't able to pull it off with Obama in the role.
This doesn't mean I discount the power of NA which is bringing about its agenda with the baseball bat of power and the stealth methods and staying power of cockroaches.
Let's see if anyone comes out of the woodwork to defend cockroaches.

Hey all, it hit me the other day. If the ENP is "the" covenant mentioned in Daniel, do you realize how close we are to middle of the 70th week? You know, the time when Jesus said RUN!!
I sure thought things would be worse at this point but God's plan is usually full of surprises and shatters our imaginations, (while remaining true to Scripture). If the ENP did start the 70th week, I think we have some "shock and awe" in the near future. Constance, I wish you had a crystal ball!
This article demonstrates how close we may be to the mark. Such stories are never mentioned in mainstream headlines, but we understand the significance...we, brothers and sisters are not in darkness.

When we leave morality in the ditch as we move on in an intellectual search, we leave the most important part of religion behind. We are on this earth for a given number of years. Everything we do impacts others. Charity, kindness, decency, caring do not come automatically into one's soul. They are actions that are not programmed into the brain through evolution. Hopefully they are taught to us by those who have learned the lessons of the past.
Somewhere I read that there are plans to develop a chip that can be implanted in each person that will control and produce expected behavior. I found it as I was skipping around the internet, but never saved the source. This is where the blending of science and religion will take us if we let it.

This man is claiming that a high percentage of the Palestinians are "Jewish" or Israel, depending on your perspective:
http://www.ireport.com/docs/DOC-279707
Here is the website associated with the report:
http://www.the-engagement.org/default.asp
Someone from this blog, a while back, sent me this verse and asked me what I thought of it:
Is. 49:6 He says, “It is too small a thing that You should be My Servant To raise up the tribes of Jacob and to restore the apreserved ones of Israel;
I will also make You a light of the nations
So that My salvation may reach to the end of the earth.”
...I will translate from the Hebrew...so that my Yeshua may reach to the ends of the earth. Yeshua came first for the "lost sheep of the House of Israel" ( that is not Judah, that is Israel).
As the gospel goes out to the four corners of the earth, His sheep hear His voice. Unfortunately, lots of religions have prevented people from hearing the news.
The shalom that we are all searching comes from Yeshua, the living Torah.
When Gan Eden is restored, there will be no religion. We'll have the Lamb, and we'll have His Torah. We are called to relationship with the living God, which is what was broken at the Fall. Yeshua came to restore this and He came through the tribe of Judah i.e. He was a Jew. The Northern Kingdom ( the House of Israel) and the Jews ( the House of Judah) are scattered throughout the planet. Some of the Jews are the visible remnant of Israel. All 12 tribes are mixed with the nations and many have heard the gospel.
Zech. 10:8-10 “I will whistle for them to gather them together, For I have redeemed them;
And they will be as numerous as they were before. “When I scatter them among the peoples, They will remember Me in far countries,
And they with their children will live and come back. “I will bring them back from the land of Egypt And gather them from Assyria; And I will bring them into the land of Gilead and Lebanon Until no room can be found for them.
We serve an awesome God.
Shabbat shalom,
Joyce
I just want to add, that it is helpful sometimes to not only look at the bad in the world and the the parts of prophecy that are troubling, like the apostasy and the anti messiah, but it is also helpful to look at what God says He is going to do, because everything He has said so far has happened, and the rest of His Word will not pass away:
You will notice that Yeshua is echoing what the Psalms say about YHVH:
Psa. 148:5-6 Let them praise the name of the LORD, For He commanded and they were created. He has also established them forever and ever; He has made a decree which will not pass away.
Luke 21:33 “Heaven and earth will pass away, but My words will not pass away.
He will accomplish everything that His Word says He will accomplish and one of the amazing prophecies He will accomplish is to restore all of Israel. HE will reconcile the two houses to be one nation in the Land:
Ezek. 37:21-22 “Say to them, ‘Thus says the Lord GOD, “Behold, I will atake the sons of Israel from among the nations where they have gone, and I will gather them from every side and bring them into their own land; and I will make them aone nation in the land, on the mountains of Israel; and one king will be king for all of them; and they will no longer be two nations and no longer be divided into two kingdoms.
This is why I am always explaining that the Jews are not ALL Israel, they are 2 1/2 tribes. The Northern Kingdom, in the Bible was NEVER, EVER called Jews, but they were called Israel. Israel is the name given to Jacob, who persevered with God and man and prevailed. Regardless of our genealogy, we too must wrestle with God and prevail. but there are those who are actually descendants of the 12 tribes who are hidden in the nations. They need redemption, because we all need redemption.
Genealogy will not save us, nor ritual conversion. The only who can save us the one whose name means salvation, Yeshua. Salvation is of God, and thankfully it is of Him, not from ourselves or we'd all be in big trouble. If there is anyone on the blog who has not called to the one to whom every knee will bow...it's not too late..
Phil. 2:9-10 For this reason also, God highly exalted Him, and bestowed on Him the name which is above every name, so that at the name of Jesus aEVERY KNEE WILL BOW, of those who are in heaven and on earth and under the earth,
It's the same passage as in Isaiah, in case there are any doubts about who Yeshua is:
Is. 45:22-24 “Turn to Me and be saved, all the ends of the earth; For I am God, and there is no other. “I have sworn by Myself, The word has gone forth from My mouth in righteousness And will not turn back, That to Me cevery knee will bow, every tongue will swear allegiance.“They will say of Me, ‘Only in the LORD are righteousness and strength.’ Men will come to Him, And all who were angry at Him will be put to shame.

An ad campaign featured on a U.S. Army website seeking those who would be interested in being an "Internment/Resettlement" specialist is raising alarms across the country, generating concerns that there is some truth in those theories about domestic detention camps, a roundup of dissidents and a crackdown on "threatening" conservatives.

There was once a no-goodnik named Baal
Who acted like he "knew" it all
Til the things that he "knew"
Got mixed up in a brew
That he wants to call "pasta fasoul"
( At least in certain quarters where they don't know "you-know-what" from shinola and are therefore unaware that said "brew" is also "known" as "the Devil's chicken soup for the soul").
DEAD CHICKENS ANYONE???
Chef Baal even promises not to tell you whether or not they died a natural death.
Bad Baal.
P.S.
Actually, the correct spelling is "pasta e fagioli."
The little falsehood was just my warm and fuzzy little way of trying to make Baal feel at home.
There was a false goddess named Isis
Who e'er in her "Great Marriage" crisis (a.k.a. Hieros Gamos)
Looked for "O's" body parts

But one - can you guess what her vice is????????
Guess we will have to wait until December 2012 to find out "the rest of the story." When Osiris "rises" and we can see what is missing.

A prayer that is useful is you are having problems in your life, it has proven itself very helpful to me and other I know:
Omnipotent and Eternal God who hath ordained the whole creation for thy praise and glory and for the salvation of man, I earnestly beseech thee that though wouldst send one of thy spirits of the order of Jupiter, one of the messengers of Zadkiel whom thou hast appointed governor of thy firmament at the present time, most faithfully, willingly, and readily to show me these things which I shall ask, command, or require of him, and truly execute my desires. Nevertheless, O Most Holy God, thy will and not mine be done through Jesus Christ, thy only begotten Son our Lord.
Amen
Question:
Whats the difference between Jesus and a picture of Jesus?
Answer:
You only need ONE nail to hang up a picture of Jesus.
Jesus and Moses are playing a pro-am at Pebble Beach with Tiger Woods and Phil Mickelson, when they get to #8, a par 4 dogleg right. The pros hit 300 yard drives into the approach, taking the water out of play, but Jesus and Moses hit tee shots that leave them on the right edge of the fairway, about two hundred from the green, over the ocean.
They get to their balls and Moses says, "I'm not that good, I'm going to lay up to the left." So, he takes out his pitching wedge and hits a nice shot into the fairway, leaving him about 100 yards from the green.
Jesus says, "I'm going for it." and pulls out his 7 iron.
Moses says, "What are you doing, that's two hundred yards! You should use your 3 iron!"
Jesus says, "Hey, Arnold Palmer hits his 7 iron two hundred yards!" He lines up and takes the shot, which is perfectly on line but lands in the water short of the green.
Jesus raises his hand, and his ball floats to the top, bobbing on the waves. He grabs his gap wedge and walks out on the water, and hits a nice chip to the center of the green.
Tiger walks over to Moses and says, "Who's he think he is, Jesus Christ?"
Moses says "No, he thinks he's Arnold Palmer!"
How did that suggestion go again? Someone likes hissing cockroach pets for his little Baals?
Ex. 20:7 “You shall not take the name of the LORD your God in vain, for the LORD will not leave him unpunished who takes His name in vain.
The context of vain in this passage is to make empty.
7723. שׇׁוְא shav}, shawv; or שַׁו shav, shav; from the same as 7722 in the sense of desolating; evil (as destructive), literally (ruin) or morally (especially guile); figuratively idolatry (as false, subjective), uselessness (as deceptive, objective; also adverbially, in vain):—false(-ly), lie, lying, vain, vanity.
Just a warning to those on the blog that want to try to make Yeshua's name empty. You can do what you want, but it is not without consequences. It's not only about cursing or telling bad jokes, but it's if our lives render His Name empty too. I have quietly watched the confusion on the blog here and am now speaking up because there's a spirit operating that is from the pit.
To my brothers and sisters in Yeshua on the blog here, I would caution you to not be in direct dialogue with a deceiving spirit...
Eph. 6:12 For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the powers, against the world forces of this darkness, against the spiritual forces of wickedness in the heavenly places.
and:
2Cor. 6:14 Do not be bound together with unbelievers; for what partnership have righteousness and lawlessness, or what fellowship has light with darkness?

Fear not! All you need to know about the New Age is in the following paragraphs. By remembering a few key phrases, you will be accepted into any spiritual group as a fellow traveller along Truth's highway.
Rule number one for the novice New Ager is to make sure that a crystal of some sort is visible on you at all times. You will notice that all of the women will be wearing a necklace of either amethyst or rose quartz, but for a man, a large chunk of natural, clear quartz that is strapped to a cord around your neck is far more suitable. If you feel uncomfortable wearing your crystal in this way, then carrying it in your hand is also quite acceptable, as long as you remember to look at it appreciatively every now and then, making sure that others see it too of course.
When people notice your crystal they will invariably ask, "What is your crystal programmed for?" In reply, avoid any macho response that suggests that you are using it to attract more sex, money, or power, as this will blow your cover immediately, instead, use the vague, but common phrase, "I have programmed it to help me to enhance my spiritual growth." This reply will satisfy the enquirer without encouraging questions of a more specific nature.
To acquire a new name that reflects your spiritual goals is also quite common among New Agers, therefore don't be surprised if you are introduced to people with strange names such as Shekinah, Silver Wolf, or Starlight. To find your own spiritual name, you can use either of two methods. You could choose a word at random from any New Age magazine, or you could ask your spirit guide for a suggestion.
cont.........
cont.....
To have a spirit guide is as necessary for the New Ager as having a permanent smile on your face. If you are asked who your spirit guide is, then it is safest to opt for a Red Indian guide - everyone else does! Make sure that you give your spirit guide an impressive name though. You won't gain much respect from your peers within the spiritual development circles if your guide is called Joe, so give him a name such as Snow Buffalo, Tall Eagle, or Smiling Rainbow Hearted Mountain Bear.
If you want to be a bit different, or if someone else has already chosen the name that you made up for your guide, then go a step further and say that instead of a spirit guide you have a guardian angel. For extra points, use the name of one of the Archangels and the eyes of the people in the group will light up with awe and admiration. Don't go too far though, as an inferred conversation with God or the late J.C. will mean that you will soon find yourself standing alone, looking with feigned interest at the dozen or so statues of unicorns and Red Indians that the host has proudly displayed on the mantelpiece.
As you settle in for the evening's lesson and psychic exercises (aerobics for the soul), you will invariably be asked to participate in an experiment on past life recall. Here is another ideal opportunity to impress your girlfriend and the rest of the group. Once again though, use moderation in your claims and don't invent details of a life as Tutankhamen or Henry the Eighth, as the group leader has probably already claimed both of these. And if he hasn't, then he'll probably be upset that he has forgotten to include them in his lineage of previous incarnations. It is much safer to opt for "memories" of an existence as an advisor, astrologer, or valet to a monarch or famous person, as historical records will not necessarily disprove the names and events of this lifetime that you suddenly recall.
If you have survived the evening so far, your last test will be the supper. Under no circumstances should you eat anything other than vegetarian food (i.e. fruits, nuts, vegetables, or any cooked combination of these that invariably tastes like warm, wet cardboard), or your plans for acceptance will be sunk quicker than Atlantis was.
As you depart, make sure that you hug everyone at least once, and be sure to offer deep and meaningful words of inspiration - such as "keep smiling" - to every person at least twice. If you have come up with the right sort of platitudes for everyone and if everything else has gone well, you will probably hear your girlfriend telling her friends that you are indeed her soulmate, and you will already be looking forward to the next gathering of these salubrious spirituality seekers.
Good luck - or as the New Agers say - May the Great Spirit be with you!

If he's retiring from the Foreign Policy, what provision is to be made for Europe's military?
From MicroSoft Case Study site:
European Militarization under Solana
"The European defence sector has long been fragmented along national lines as a result of a traditional assumption that military matters were best pursued by governments on a country-by-country basis. However, this approach is no longer operationally realistic or economically sustainable.
The European Defence Agency (EDA) is an agency of the European Union (EU), established by the Council of Ministers in 2004 to support member states in improving European defence capabilities.
The EU High Representative, Javier Solana, is head of the agency and chairs its steering board, a decision-making body composed of defence ministers of 26 participating member states and the European Commission.

What's next on the agenda with you then? Scientology-Bashing???????
Constance,
I will leave my last comment on this blog for you. You are a fraud. You prey on people who are completely dependent on their faith just to get through the day. You sell them the sham idea that at any moment their faith could be stolen from them.
You collect rot sources and string them together to form the wildest theories about how peoples religious freedom is going to be striped away. And those who have nothing but their strict, legalistic, fundamentalist upbringing buy your bullshit as they seek to protect that which is dear to them.
And you carry on with this nonsense, preying on people who are frightened out of their minds. And you make money off of it.
You are also a filthy and disgusting bigot. Agreeing to appear in a "film" by a bigot and a hatemonger look to push his agenda that all kinds of people are evil and wish to destroy Christians.
You edit your own Wikipedia page to make yourself seem sane.
You are a liar, and a mentally ill fraud.
Here is hoping the "pagan's" destroy both your work and your religion.

CLINICS USE TISSUE FROM BABIES KILLED IN ABORTIONS FOR COSMETIC INJECTIONS
by Steven Ertelt
LifeNews.com Editor
August 8, 2006
London, England (LifeNews.com) -- Women from around the world are traveling to clinics in various locations that are now offering face lifts and cosmetic surgery using tissue from babies who have been killed by abortions.
Pro-life advocates are strongly condemning the practice and saying the taking of human life is never warranted -- especially for such a self-serving purpose.
Women like Susan Barrington, a 52-year-old housewife from England, are heading to places such as Barbados, the Dominican Republic, Moscow and Rotterdam to obtain the treatments.
She has been given the final go-ahead form a local clinic to travel abroad for the treatment that promises to make her look 10 years younger and doesn't mind that lives have been sacrificed to enhance her beauty...read entire article......
P.S.
One is reminded of the legends surrounding the notorious 16th-century Hungarian Noblewoman Elizabeth Bathory, the "Blood Countess" who reportedly not only drank human blood but was also rumored to have bathed in the blood of virgins in an attempt to keep her youth.

I wonder if when Javier Solana says he will not re-up his mandate as High Minister, that also extends to his positions as Secretary-General of the WEU, Secretary-General of the Council of the European Union, and head of the EDA and ESA?

Hey Joyce,
If you want to call me "Israel" intead of "Jew" that is all right with me.
It does not change the fact that, if you are an "Israeli" by birth, as you claim, you are an idolator for believing in a god other than the God of Israel.
Exod 20:1 God spoke all these words, to respond: 2 "I am the Lord, your God, Who took you out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage. 3 You shall not have the gods of others in My presence.
Deut. 4:35 You have been shown, in order to know that the Lord He is God; there is none else besides Him. 36 From the heavens, He let you hear His voice to instruct you, and upon the earth He showed you His great fire, and you heard His words out of the midst of the fire, 37 and because He loved your forefathers and chose their seed after them, and He brought you out of Egypt before Him with His great strength, 38 to drive out from before you nations greater and stronger than you, to bring you and give you their land for an inheritance, as this day. 39 And you shall know this day and consider it in your heart, that the Lord He is God in heaven above, and upon the earth below; there is none else.
Perchance there is among you some man or woman... whose heart is even now turning away from the Lord our God to go worship the gods of [other] nations. ... When such a one hears the words of these sanctions he may fancy himself immune, thinking, 'I shall be safe, though I walk in the tenacity of my heart, so that whatever is watered will provide for that which is [meant] to remain thirsty,' then God will not be willing to forgive him; rather the Lord's anger and passion rage against that man till every sanction recorded in this book comes down upon him, and the Lord blots out his name from under heaven (Deut. 29:13-19)."
I discovered a thorough, thoughtful discussion of the European Neighbourhood Policy, a 7 year agreement with many countries from 2007 through 2013 over at TedMontgomery.com. I was not previously acquainted with his work, but it bears careful study.
Constance
I clicked over to Ted Montgomery's web site and took a look. It's early on Sunday morning and I must prepare for church. I skimmed it quickly.
I also clicked on his "Creation" option and found that he not a "Young earth" creationist. Again, no time to delve into it this morning, but I intend to look more deeply into what he says.
PARTICLE COLLIDER: BLACK HOLE OR CRUCIAL MACHINE?

Len,
The story of Abraham and Isaac speaks of a father who goes to sacrifice His son. The story of Jacob wrestling with "a man" was a pre-incarnate picture of Yeshua. The story of Joseph being sold by his brothers for 20 pieces of silver, only to turn around and redeem his brothers and give them the bread that brings life, and to forgive them is a perfect picture of Yeshua. Moses going up and down Mt Sinai, as an intermediary between God and the people, and on and on.
I won't even get into the "suffering servant" "he who was pierced" David and Solomon, another father and son, or Absalom who was "hung on a tree".
...and
Prov. 30:4 Who has ascended into heaven and descended?
Who has gathered the wind in His fists?
Who has wrapped the waters in His garment?
Who has established all the ends of the earth?
What is His name or His son’s name?
Surely you know!
Surely you know, Len if you are willing to think outside the box that's been created for you by the very Jews who persecuted Yeshua and His followers.
By the way, He asked His Father to forgive them for their ignorance and blindness.
Then there is the sign of Jonah, three days and three nights in the belly of a fish...the sign of resurrection.. Moses in the little "ark" in the Nile, which brings me to the subject of Noah's ark and the one door, the only door that one could enter to be saved from the flood.
John 10:7-10 So Jesus said to them again, “Truly, truly, I say to you, I am athe door of the sheep.
“All who came before Me are thieves and robbers, but the sheep did not hear them. “I am the door; if anyone enters through Me, he will be saved, and will go in and out and find pasture. “The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; I came that they amay have life, and have it abundantly.

You are Israel, and probably a Jew too, but there are some from Israel who are not Jews, like folks from the tribes of Ephraim, Manassah, Asher, etc, etc. i.e the Northern Kingdom. They were never called Jews, unless they associated with Judah, in which case they could be called Jews too.
Most tribes from the Northern Kingdom don't even know that they are Israel because they have assimilated in the the nations where they were exiled. This probably makes it easier for them to hear Yeshua's voice because they don't have the baggage of Judaism t In the last days, they will be shaken out of these nations and brought to their specific tribal inheritance. Jews cannot retroactively call them Judah, since they NEVER were Judah. They were the House of Israel, the Northern Kingdom, Ephraim, but NEVER, EVER Jews, and now they're assimilated into the nations...
Right now, all we know about are Jews. There are no tribal identities with the exception of some of Levi and Levi is considered part of Judah.
Deut. 21:22-23 “If a man has committed a sin worthy of death and he is put to death, and you hang him on a tree, his corpse shall not hang all night on the tree, but you shall surely bury him on the same day (for he who is hanged is accursed of God), so that you do not defile your land which the LORD your God gives you as an inheritance.
The problem is that Yeshua is sinless.. He is the spotless Lamb slain from the foundations of the earth.
Gal. 3:13 Christ redeemed us from the curse of the Law, having become a curse for us — for it is written, “CURSED IS EVERYONE WHO HANGS ON A TREE” —
I pray you come to know the shalom of Yeshua, who died for your violations of Torah, and don't say you have never violated it because:
1John 1:8 If we say that we have no sin, we are deceiving ourselves and the truth is not in us.
Rom. 6:23 For the wages of sin is death, but the free gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.
It's not a question of worshipping another god, but a question of worshipping God in Spirit and in Truth...
Shalom in Yeshua,
Joyce

Ban Ki Moon's first term as UN Secretary General ends 31 December 2011. Maybe health or some other reason will keep him from second term. Maybe by then the world will be crying out for a strongman to come out of retirement and take over at the helm. Set up for Solana? How old would he be?

Joyce,
All your synthesized “analogies”: are so obviously strained and contrived as to be laughable. They are nowhere near as creative as the messianic Passover matza joke I set out.
If you want to dwell on analogies dwell on this one:
“In that day too, declares the Lord of Hosts, I will erase the very name of the idols from the land; they shall not be uttered any more. and I will also make the ‘prophets’ and the unclean spirit vanish from the land. If anyone ‘prophesies’ thereafter, his own father and mother, who brought him into this world, will say to him, ‘You shall die, for you have lied in the name of the Lord;’ and his own father and mother, who brought him into this world, will put him to death when he ‘prophesies.’ In that day every ‘prophet’ will be ashamed of the ‘visions’ [he had] when he ‘prophesied.’ In order to deceive he will not wear a hairy mantle, and he will declare, ‘I am not a ‘prophet,’ --- And if he is asked, ‘What are those sores on your back?’ he will reply, ‘From being beaten in the homes of my friends. (Zech. 13:2-6)’”
>>Prov. 30:4 Who has ascended into heaven and descended?
Who has gathered the wind in His fists?
Who has wrapped the waters in His garment?
Who has established all the ends of the earth?
What is His name or His son’s name?
Surely you know!
Surely I know! There is absolutely nothing in my Bible that is embarrassing.
Of course, God is in complete control of all the forces of nature. Heaven is His throne and the earth His footstool. (Is. 56:1)
Didn’t you know this? Or have you been studying Jesus so much you completely forgot about your true and only God?
>>What is his name and what is the name of his son?
Exod. 4:22 And you shall say to Pharaoh, 'So said the Lord, "My firstborn son is Israel." ' 23 So I say to you, 'Send out My son so that he will worship Me, but if you refuse to send him out, behold, I am going to slay your firstborn son.' "
Joyce wrote, “Most tribes from the Northern Kingdom don't even know that they are Israel because they have assimilated in the nations where they were exiled. It's not a question of worshipping another god, but a question of worshipping God in Spirit and in Truth..."
Let’s face it! For you it is a matter of worshipping Another god.
You are not a Christian by your own admission. And you certainly do not write like a Jew. So you must be the blank page between
the Old and New Testaments.
Len
There is NO WAY that belief in Jesus as the promised MESSIAH could ever be construed as IDOLATRY. Au contraire, to believe in anybody but is IDOLATRY!
Joyce,
From the time you started posting here I knew you were a New Age leader, as one of the goals of the New Age movement is to blend the religions so as to create a one world religion.
Your hatred of true Judaism creeps out day by day in your distortions of Judaism to individuals who do not know Judaism. They trust you because of your pretense that you are a Jew. If Len wasn't around, you would get away with your distortions.
Why do you post here when you will find no converts to your creepy new religion? It's to try and convince readers that Judaism and Christianity can be blended. If you can convince the followers of a leader of information about the New Age movement, it's a win for you.
RING RING RING Joyce. Jews and Christians can like each other, but our religions can't be blended.
You have a following here because so many Christians want to believe that Judaism should have disappeared when Christianity came on the scene. Few realize that this is a New Age theme. According to New Agers, the Age of Pisces, the Age of Christianity is also over.
RING RING RING It was also a Nazi theme. In the same way people like you want to destroy Judaism, Christianity is also under attack by the blenders.
Others reading here should know there is a Messianic Muslim movement which tells listeners that it is just fine to blend Islam and Christianity and that people who like the idea can be followers of Islam and Christianity at the same time. It is only one of many such blending of religion movements taking place. I suppose that at some time there will be a genius who points to the blended religions and says they can all be blended together. The end result will not be Christianity.
Yes Joyce, you know it, the funding for those efforts is coming from the same place as funding for the Messianic Alliance movement, and that's Paul Temple and The Family.
Should I post what you and your husband are doing now and where you are doing it, how you are presenting your family and who is funding you? I've been asked not to do that. Why don't you do it. There are many of us who know what is going on but have been asked to keep quiet.
Your day by day antisemitism is disgusting. You are a wolf who covers herself in sheep skin to move among the sheep, using their language.
As disgusting as they are, Bjorn and Baal are more honest than you.
I look around me and see mostly gullible people in the world of politics and religion. I see a lot of wolves covered in sheep fleece. I see you taking advantage of them.
I've watched your operation long enough to know that what I've written will seem to flow over your back like water. You'll just keep posting as if I've said nothing. It's only proof that you have been trained in robotic public relations and are not some sincere, innocent believer.
Dorothy
You are not a Christian by your own admission. And you certainly do not write like a Jew. So you must be the blank page between

That does explains a LOT.
