| Initial internet coverage of Borrell EU - PESC position. |
The coverage of Borrell's appointment is that basically the true post has been empty since Javier Solana "retired". Basically, Catherine Ashton (2010 to 2015) and Federica Mogherini (2016 to 2020) were placeholders. I have made no secret of the fact that I consider Federica Mogherini to be a very decent, hardworking and talented lady. It was Federica Mogherini and then Prime Minister of Italy Renzi who during her pre EU post as Foreign Minister of Italy worked so hard to secure the release of persecuted and about to be executed Miriam Ibrahim. Ibrahim was a Somali woman sentenced to death for becoming a Christian and marrying a Christian man.
Recalling my many years of ongoing research on Solana, I recall various statements he made over the years. While still at NATO, he told gathered European officals that "the plan was to use NATO assets with European control of those assets."
There is little love lost in the European Union these days for the United States, particularly as headed by President Donald Trump. What comes to mind is a Revelation prophecy that may or not be applicable here, but it bears watching. It was 10 kings who came together "for one hour" (a short period of time in Biblical terminology and handed their power to the beast. It had been prophesied in Daniel that the 10 toes of the image King Nebuchadnezzar were "mixed iron and clay" and "would not cleave together." The Revelation prophecy was that at some point ten kings would hand their power to one man and "thus fulfill the words of the prophecy." He would enjoy a reign of 1260 days (3.5 years). He would pull up three of the 10 countries by their roots.
It seems obvious to me from the context of that prophecy that these "kings"/rulers would hand their sovereignty over to one man as a power to equalize themselves with another power. What has been expressed often in recent history is their need to equalize themselves with the USA.
If Borrell is indeed taking Solana's testimony, it appears to me very plausible that he will most likely faithfully execute same. Solana's theme song for a long period of time is that sovereignty must be surrendered -- not just European wise, but globally in the interests of "global governance."
When Solana was first picked as High Representative for the Common Foreign and Security Policy of Europe in 1999, he was jokingly referred to as "Senor PESC". That was made more real when he was handed the Western European Union, a military federation of 10 nations, in November 1999. Supposedly that was to be only for a one year period while it was being "shut down." That year sure lasted a long time -- the WEU continued through 2010!
I believe this requires prayerful watching.
Stay tuned! Refresh your browser frequently on this as I will be adding links as this progresses. I felt important that you have the current news without "the perfect destroying the good."

P.S. "Breaking news" over at EUProphecynews.com and its twitter spot. David Wilkinson maintains that very excellent site and he reported the following. If this is true, vis a vis, Solana, I'm even more skeptical about the "retirement." Josep Borrell was, per Wikipedia, divorced and remarried very recently in 2018. He indeed may not be crazy about so much required travel.
"BREAKING: Spain gets EU high representative. Borrell has repeatedly denied wanting the job. Too much travel. May stay on as Spain's foreign minister. If he declines, Spain's PM may call Solana. Like Borrell, he is pro-Europe old guard socialist in his 70's. Blog post forthcoming."

Also significant is Germany’s Defence Minister Ursula von der Leyen's nomination to Commission Presidency. This Commission’s focus appears will be an aggressive impelementation of PESCO.
According to a May 27th Reuters article, this was expressed by Josep Borrell:
>i>The lone success story for the left in big EU countries, Sanchez is also due to meet German Chancellor Angela Merkel face-to-face before all 28 EU national leaders convene in Brussels on Tuesday to discuss results of the EU vote.
"France and Germany have shown that by themselves they are no longer in a position to advance Europe. More states are needed to participate in the leadership task," Sanchez's acting foreign minister Josep Borrell has said.
"We want to build a G3 and strengthen the Madrid-Berlin-Paris axis, including Lisbon as a whole with the Iberian peninsula," a senior Spanish government source said.'
Hmm? "Madrid - Berlin - Paris axis . . . ." Could it be shades of "the beast that was dead and came back to life?"
Stay tuned!

WHY Are Globalist Corporations & The US Govt Fast-Tracking Dangerous Technologies Upon America?
...
While many of us are getting our information about 5G online from various health and technology-related websites such as Electric Sense, Natural News, Natural Blaze and others, as we'll hear in the 1st video at the bottom of this story from a 5G technician who is installing 5G now and who warns what he's already seeing is that 5G will be more than 10,000 TIMES more powerful than the radio waves being directed at us now! And we cannot possibly ignore remarks made about 5G recently by Washington State University Professor Martin A. Pall who stated “Putting in tens of millions of 5G antennae without a single biological test of safety has got to be about the stupidest idea anyone has had in the history of them world!”

Constance,
Thank you for acknowledging that the Revelation prophecy of these events "may or may not be applicable."
On a personal note after much experience and study; Dispensationalism has always had the habit of interpreting vague Biblical prophecies in such a way that they force it to fit their analysis.
For example, during the outbreak of World War I, Dispensationalists went wild with their "see, we told you this was going to happen" declarations. WWI did seem to fulfill their interpretation of end times events, much more so than at any other time in history. YET, their interpretation was completely false. Having lost their credibility, they went somewhat quiet for a few years.
Dispensationalists were on center stage again with the outbreak of WW II. Again, they assertively declared, en masse, that THIS was REALLY it while announcing that Mussolini was the AC. When Mussolini didn't work out, they jumped on the Hitler bandwagon. When that didn't work out after his defeat, they jumped on the Stalin bandwagon. They really like bandwagons. LOL!
Remember the hysteria over Gorbachev, along with that "mark" on his forehead? Do you recall how Hal Lindsey authoritatively declared, to the delight of millions of Evangelicals, that the 1980's would witness the "rapture" of the church? Lindsey also emphatically stated that the EU would be limited to 10 NATIONS ... because the Bible declares it to be 10. Actually, it was THEIR interpretation that declared it to be true, not the Bible.
The point is this; Dispensationalists have a very long history of forcing their system of interpretation upon current events, and they have been wrong over and over again.
With their long history of error, why on earth should we, or would we, trust their interpretation on anything?
To Anon @ 10:41 AM ...
Thanks for the link. I wasn't aware of this channel and will check it out more.
We had a very similar, high profile incident take place in our area. In a nearby, predominately white suburb, a black family moved into a neighborhood, only to witness that their home had been spray painted with "KKK" and swastikas, etc. on their home. The entire community responded with outrage. The story ran in the local, small newspaper on the front page for days.
One small problem; it was all proven to be a hoax, perpetrated by the very homeowner "victims !" Their explanation for their actions was that although it didn't happen the way they claimed it did, it COULD HAVE !
Nothing came of it. I guess there aren't any laws broken when you commit a race/hate crime against yourself.
These types of "crimes" are far more faux than true. I told a black friend of mine during a very lengthy conversation about race relations, that I honestly knew only one true racist in my entire life (I worked with the jerk). Because he trusts me, he was completely shocked by that statement. He had been indoctrinated into believing that virtually "ALL" white people were racists.
I told him that people react consistently to good behavior and bad. It is human nature to avoid bad behavior, whether the perpetrators are white or black. I have known blacks that want to move "far away" from other blacks because of high incidents of crime. Are they being "racist" for wanting to do that? etc., etc.
PS: this black man is a HIGHLY educated gentleman. He told me after this conversation that in his entire life (he was 60 at the time), he had never had a conversation with a white person about the race "problem" like this. THAT is a shame, because there is a lot of misunderstanding on both sides of the coin.
Here's yet another instance of how geopolitics, the EU, and Gaia fixation converge:

While the Pope is not THE Antichrist, he certainly is anti Christ. His desire to further his god satans goal of one worldism is 180 degrees opposite the God of the Bibles will. Being willfully rebellious, Francis is guilty of witchcraft.
Anonymous 10:23 AM said: "While the Pope is not THE Antichrist, he certainly is anti Christ. His desire to further his god satans goal of one worldism is 180 degrees opposite the God of the Bibles will. Being willfully rebellious, Francis is guilty of witchcraft."
Pope Francis knows that his church teaches in its catechism that in the end-times the 666 "Antichrist" and the "false prophet" will promote "one worldism" and eventually set up a one-world government, religion and economic system and then persecute the church or Christians of traditional Christianity. So, why is Pope Francis promoting "one worldism"? Pope Francis recently released Laudato Si (“Praised Be”), an encyclical on climate and justice to “enter into dialogue with all people about our common home.” The world renowned eco-theologian Rev. Matthew Fox, who is not of traditional Christianity, recently stated that three-fourths of the pope's environmental encyclical presents his eco-theology. Does the Papacy now know that the scientific discovery of evolution proves that his church's central dogma, which is based on the theme of the Bible, is false...and that, therefore, his church is fundamentally false and that traditional Christianity is also false. I believe that he does know this to be true. And I believe that he also knows that Satan inspired the Bible scriptures that traditional Christianity is based on...and that it is also true that the Bible scriptures about the end-times are also inspired by Satan and that the 666 "Antichrist,s" mission is of God and that the pope knows that he has a significant role to play in the New Age plan to usher in the New World Order...and that he is now working to fulfill his divine mission.
Please don't stop there!

With Both Russia And America Holding Emergency Meetings Following Mysterious Incident In The Arctic Ocean, Are We On The Edge Of ARMAGEDDON?
July 4, 2019
By Stefan Stanford
All News Pipeline
...
With tanks in Washington DC today for President Trump's grand 4th of July American birthday party happening just two days after what some believe to have been a huge 'event' happened within the Arctic ocean prompting top officials in both the US and Russia to be suddenly pulled into emergency meetings and rumors of World War 3 filling the internet, we'll take a look within this ANP story at what we've learned while urging everybody to prepare for anything in the days ahead.
...
DEBKA is claiming that their military sources are reporting that there was a confrontation between a U.S. submarine and a Russian submarine, and that it resulted in the U.S. submarine being hit by a torpedo…
First reports reaching DEBKAfile’s military sources say that a US submarine intercepted a Russian nuclear sub in American waters opposite Alaska. The Russian sub escorting the nuclear submarine responded with a Balkan 2000 torpedo and scuttled the US vessel. Urgent consultations in both the White House and the Kremlin were taking place on Tuesday night. US Vice President Mike Pence called off an appearance in New Hampshire after being recalled to Washington for a conference called by President Donald Trump without explanation.
Russian President Vladimir Putin cancelled an engagement and headed for the Kremlin to confer with Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu and military chiefs, after learning that 14 submariners died in a fire that broke out on a nuclear-powered “experimental submarine in Russian waters.” This account carried in Russian media varies in most respects from the first reports reaching this site and may refer to a separate incident. They report between 14 and 17 members of an AS-12 nuclear powered submarine died of poisonous fumes caused by a fire aboard the vessel. The submarine was described as experimental and unarmed but often used in spy missions. It is unclear how many of the 25 crew survived.
And now we learn in this story from Futurism that the Russian submarine that caught fire may have been a cable cutting vessel, with its purpose being the cutting of internet cables
running at the bottom of the ocean.
And while we'd love to be able to give a definitive answer as to what happened in the oceans off of Alaska, as VP Pence's own staff had pointed out, "we'll find out within two weeks" hinting that immediate war may not be imminent but also reminding us of 1 Thessalonians 5:3, "For when they shall say peace and safety, then sudden destruction cometh upon them".
And with all of this happening at a time when Russian warships are docked off of the coast of Cuba and Russia has surpassed the US in nuclear weapons technology as Dr. Peter Vincent Pry had reported in this March of 2018 ANP story titled "Expert Warns: 'MAD Is No Longer Mutual' - Thanks To 8 Years Of Barack Obama, America Is Now Unilaterally Vulnerable To Nuclear Destruction", we can only pray that cooler heads prevail with both President Trump and Vladimir Putin clearly understanding what the implications of global nuclear war would be.
And for those who haven't been paying attention, what might war against Russia look like in 2019? From this 2016 story over at Club Orlov written by a number of Russian citizens now living here in America titled "A Russian Warning".
We now feel that it is our duty, as Russians living in the US, to warn the American people that they are being lied to, and to tell them the truth. And the truth is simply this: If there is going to be a war with Russia, then the United States will most certainly be destroyed, and most of us will end up dead.
Thus, if tomorrow a war were to break out between the US and Russia, it is guaranteed that the US would be obliterated. At a minimum, there would no longer be an electric grid, no internet, no oil and gas pipelines, no interstate highway system, no air transportation or GPS-based navigation. Financial centers would lie in ruins. Government at every level would cease to function. US armed forces, stationed all around the globe, would no longer be resupplied. At a maximum, the entire landmass of the US would be covered by a layer of radioactive ash. We tell you this not to be alarmist, but because, based on everything we know, we are ourselves alarmed. If attacked, Russia will not back down; she will retaliate, and she will utterly annihilate the United States.
And while there might be those who actually believe that the US could 'win' such a war, their story offered us this blunt reminder, a reminder of Russia's 'dead hand' doomsday system that will launch a blistering nuclear attack against the US even if the entire Russia leadership chain of command is dead.
We are just as certain that if Russia is attacked, or even threatened with attack, she will not back down, and that the Russian leadership will not “blink.” With great sadness and a heavy heart they will do their sworn duty and unleash a nuclear barrage from which the United States will never recover. Even if the entire Russian leadership is killed in a first strike, the so-called “Dead Hand” (the “Perimetr” system) will automatically launch enough nukes to wipe the USA off the political map. We feel that it is our duty to do all we can to prevent such a catastrophe.
So we ask ANP readers to please join us in prayer for America and the world this 4th of July weekend and please prepare with absolutely anything possible in the days ahead and this 'event' off of the coast of Alaska happening during the same time period as the recent massive internet outage...that knocked ANP, the Drudge Report, SteveQuayle.com and much of the independent news media offline.

I believe in Oprah Winfery's world-wide New Age "Christian" ministry. Jesus did not come to earth to die on a cross to save us from a sin that we did not commit. Jesus came to earth to help us find and experience our own divinity. A Lighthouse Trails article about this topic is entitled "Oprah Winfrey’s New Age 'Christianity' and the Emperor’s New Clothes." It is located at: https://www.lighthousetrailsresearch.com/blog/?p=17043. If God tells Oprah to enter the 2020 race for U.S. president she will enter and win the race-and America and the whole world will then convert to the New Age "Christian" religion.

Marianne Williamson's White House bid is inspired by a New Age, mystical 'scripture' written by a Manhattan doctor in the 1960s who thought she was channeling revelations from Jesus
Marianne Williamson started reading 'A Course in Miracles' in the 1980s when she was in search of spiritual understanding
The text helped her become a famous author and spiritual guru in her own right
She spent 35 years spreading the message of the Course via her writing and speaking engagements
Her devotion to the Course has now inspired her new project - a bid to oust Donald Trump and become the next U.S. president
The book was written by Manhattan psychologist Helen Schucman after she said she heard a voice who she believed was Jesus
It has since sold millions of copies worldwide and is available in 25 languages

Sneak preview of a soon to be released documentary by TruNews on Israel's vicious, unprovoked attack on the US Navy's USS Liberty, in which 34 Americans lost their lives and another 174 were seriously injured.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pehz562uFM0
This was a purposeful false flag attack designed to sink the Liberty, while killing the entire crew, in order to bring the USA into a major war (possibly World War III) in the Middle East.
Miraculously, the USS Liberty did not sink. This is a riveting story. I have read several books on the subject, and find it amazing that so few Americans even know that this attack by our "ally" even happened.
US Catholic Bishops Defend $750,000 Grant to Pro-LGBT Organization.
They claim that their grant "does not violate Catholic teaching."
https://www.lifesitenews.com/news/us-bishops-claim-750k-grant-to-pro-lgbt-org-does-not-violate-catholic-teaching
This story illustrates what I have said before; the Catholic Church hierarchy is aggressively moving in the direction of incorporating the radical LGBTQ agenda as an accepted lifestyle that will be embraced by the RC. Apostate "protestant churches" are doing the exact same thing.
On a personal note ... there is a local church in my area that is associated with the Moody Bible Institute and Dallas Theological Seminary. My future wife and I briefly attended this church many years ago, but left because we felt that it had made a turn towards liberalism. We knew quite a few people that remained and were disappointed that we left.
During the time we were there, the Pastor was "caught" in some type of alleged scandal involving the church funds and was forced to resign. He was eventually replaced with a man that, quite frankly, I never felt comfortable with. However, this man remained the pastor for 27+ years ... that is, until his pro-LGBTQ beliefs were revealed in a series of sermons ... to the "shock" of many. When he refused to sign a pledge, put forth by the elders, to "never perform a same sex marriage," he resigned, and took quite a few members with him in order to form another "church."
He now is a pro-LGBTQ activist that marches in parades proudly waving the "flag" in support of Sodomy.
Apostasy is rampant ... and ... it is going to get much, much worse! We are witnessing only the beginning and an ever increasing collapse of our society.
Without the bedrock of the truth of God's Word, societies quickly disintegrate into absolute chaos, or better yet, as God puts it:
"The nations that forget God shall be turned into hell."

Yes, Herb. Still staying tuned.

Prophetic Lost Stone From High Priest’s Breastplate Believed FOUND After 1,000-Year Journey!
Sometimes incredible stories are actually true, [and are true ALL THE TIME in the Bible] and in this case, experts agree that a small onyx stone, claimed to be given to a Knight Templar over 1,000 years ago and handed down through one family from generation to generation, is actually what the present owner claims:
A gem from the breastplate of the High Priest in Jerusalem!
The stones of the...High Priest’s breastplate, were referred to in the Bible as the Urim and Thummim
...
https://www.breakingisraelnews.com/75645/bin-exclusive-lost-stone-high-priests-prophetic-breastplate-thought-found-incredible-journey/
...In addition to the 12 stones mounted on the breastplate were two sardonyx stones fixed in gold settings on the shoulders of the High Priest.
"And you shall set the two stones on the shoulder pieces of the ephod, as stones of remembrance for the sons of Israel. And Aaron shall bear their names before the LORD on his two shoulders for remembrance." Exodus 28:12
Experts believe this is one of those stones. If this is so, contained within it is the power of prophecy and it may play an important role in returning the Priestly Caste to serve in the Temple.
Incredible Discovery
In 2000, Dr. James Strange, a noted professor in religious studies and archaeology, traveled to South Africa. An acquaintance suggested Dr. Strange contact a family she had met there and if he could, help them with a pro-bono appraisal of a gemstone. They were of humble means and Dr. Strange was a certified appraiser whose services were highly sought after.
Dr. Strange met with the family, intending to humor them. Instead, he was astounded by what they showed him. “I was indeed amazed at the gemstone,” Dr. Strange told Breaking Israel News. The stone itself was nothing special. A semi-precious sardonyx, it had little intrinsic worth.
But Dr. Strange was puzzled by the object he held in his hands. “I was unaware that anyone in the late Middle Ages had the technology to cut a hemisphere in such a medium, so I tried to exhaust all other explanations,” he said.
Even more astounding than the cut of the stone was the inexplicable inscription inside the stone, visible through the clear surface: two letters in ancient Hebrew. Dr. Stone wrote in his appraisal of the gem,“There is no modern or ancient technology known to me by which an artisan could produce the inscription, as it is not cut into the surface of the stone.”
Dr. Strange was an expert but when faced with such a mystery, he sought help. He turned to Ian Campbell, Director of the Independent Coloured Stones Laboratory in Johannesburg and a leading South African gemologist. Campbell was equally dumbfounded.
He studied the stone, trying to ascertain its origin. The owner’s story placing it on the High Priest’s breastplate were too incredible. But the family had documentation that traced its descent from a Crusader-period male ancestor who had been in the Holy Land in the Middle Ages and claimed the stone was a reward from the High Priest. Could it be true?
The Thousand-Year Story
According to the Auret family tradition, the ancestor, named Croiz Arneet deTarn Auret, received the stone from “the High Priest” in gratitude for his part in freeing Jerusalem around 1189. The custodianship of the stone was passed on in the Auret family through the male line until the nineteenth century. That tradition was broken when Abraham Auret passed away in 1889, bequeathing the stone to his daughter, Christina Elizabeth.
After her marriage to William James Hurst, the stone left the Auret name, and has been passed on from mother to daughter ever since. Meticulously recorded family trees and genealogical reports corroborate the story. The stone was passed on as an inheritance and is presently owned by an elderly woman in South Africa, who wishes to remain anonymous.
It has been strongly transmitted to each member of the family through the centuries that it was God’s hand that inserted the mysterious inscription inside the stone.
Experts Agree
The mystery of the writing remained. Dr. Strange noted that the stone had no external markings, so it clearly hadn’t been set in a ring or a necklace. He was forced to conclude that it had probably been set in a large plate or breastplate. He dated production of the stone to approximately the 5th century BCE.
The owner of the stone also consulted Professor M. Sharon from the University of Witwatersrand. The professor, an expert in ancient Hebrew, was given a photo of the stone. The blurry photographs hinted at something astounding but he had to be sure. Intrigued, he asked to examine the actual stone.
In his written report, he said that when he held it to the light, he was amazed to see very clearly inside the stone itself, two letters in ancient Hebrew. The letters seemed to be engraved or burnt into the heart of the stone.
“Due to the clarity of the letters and their fine definition it would be incredible if they are a coincidental natural formation in the stone,” he stated in his notarized report. “The lack of any apparent sign of interference with the surface makes the existence of the letters inside the stone a real enigma.”
He noted the inscriptions in ancient Hebrew script of what he described as “the equivalent of our ‘B’ and ‘K’.” He identified the style of script, dating it to be from the year 1000 BCE, give or take 200-300 years.
...
This small stone and its miraculous engraving that once lit up the High Priest’s breastplate are proof that the Temple stood in Jerusalem, and may signal the return of more artifacts that have been misplaced, waiting to return home.

In case you missed it ... the main stream media has completely ignored this.
In the latest testimony of Archbishop Vigano (who remains in hiding), Vifgano states that the "Vatican covered up allegations of sexual abuse of the Pope's altar boys."
Vigano states: "Not only is Pope Francis doing close to nothing to punish those who have committed abuse, he is doing absolutely nothing to expose and bring to justice those who have, for decades, facilitated and covered up the abusers."
There is much, much more regarding the long standing complicity of the Vatican in the child sex abuse scandals.
Pedophilia has its roots firmly planted in Satanism, which is widely practiced among the elite of the world that are seeking to construct a One World Government.

In Sept 2018, during a visit Borrell made to the White House with the king and queen of Spain, Trump suggested they build a wall across the Sahara Desert to bring migrants numbers down. According to El Pais, Borrell ‘made it clear’ that he disagreed with Trump’s diagnosis but insisted a policy was needed to deal with the fact that Africa would double its population in the next 20 years.
It's not evil; it's just "a policy".

There was no Jewish priesthood by the time of Crusaders maybe the Samaritan priest had such an ephod? or it was from a descendant of the last Jewish high priest?
Craig said:
"You assert: Mary when told by Gabriel she would have a son Mary acts like the condition of not knowing (not having sex with) a man was a permanent situation. This was something then that she had decided on and was known by others.
Known by whom? What evidence do you have for this assertion?"
IF the marriage was to be in name only THEN Joseph and whoever arranged this would know.
"This is an argument from silence"
No it isn't. SHE WAS NOT SILENT SHE SPOKE words that made NO sense if she did not intend celibacy to continue. In a normal situation, a girl would be pleased and say oh goody, my soon marriage will bear fruit a son who will be a great man. NOPE. her response shows she didn't expect to have sex ever.
JOSEPH DOESN'T APPEAR IN NT AFTER JESUS ABOUT 12. JESUS GIVING MARY TO JOHN TO CARE FOR HER SHOWED SHE WAS A WIDOW (and His half sibs unbelievers) this supports Joseph's greater age.
" and one the author of the very work you cite challenges:"
I cited what he incl. that went against his position (shows his blindness not mine).
I NOTICE YOU OVERLOOK ABRAHAM IN ADMITTING HE LIED IN DENYING SARAH WAS HIS WIFE, SAID SHE WAS INDEED HIS SISTER, BUT ONLY BY HIS FATHER NOT OUT OF HIS MOTHER.
Didn't do something until appears regarding permanence also. David's unfaithful wife Michal after he reclaimed her from her invalid marriage (never divorced) showed her classy and power orientation which caused him to reject her and she had no children by David until her death which doesn't mean she had them after her death.
"[She somehow managed to 'overlook' my subsequent post @ 9:00 AM which happened to be ESPECIALLY FOCUSED on that exact aspect of the topic...]" meaning distinction between moral and ritual law.
you might make the distinction in those articles, but the article at issue totally blends the two.
WRENCHING OF SCRIPTURE incl. "What precisely did Paul say here? Was it simply not to allow ANY MAN to sit in judgment of us?" Did he say this about moral issues, which he said the wrong doers should be publicly denounced and ordered disciplinary exclusion of one case in particular? NO! if we are not to allow anyone to judge us on some matter then that matter is at best irrelevant. At worst, to be avoided instead of cultivated.
Which makes food laws irrelevant or to be avoided.
you ignore the Apostolic letter Acts 15 which denounced the teaching that you have to keep the whole law, and prescribed what involved no mosaic food law only don't eat meat without some degree of exsanguination, which is from Noah's time.

'I was 14. I had braces': Jeffrey Epstein victims recall how pedophile forced them to perform sex acts ahead of his bail hearing, as prosecutors fight to keep billionaire flight risk behind bars
...
On June 30, 2008, Epstein pleaded guilty to a single state charge of soliciting an underage girl for prostitution, and ultimately served JUST 13 months of his 18-month sentence.
And that time was served NOT in a prison, but rather the Palm Beach Stockade, which is a local detention center.
Epstein was ALSO allowed to LEAVE SIX DAYS A WEEK to go work out of his West Palm Beach office during his time behind bars.
After his release he did have to register as a sex offender, BUT NOT in all states.
There is now a fight over a non-prosecution agreement that Epstein signed in the case, which was overseen by President Trump's current Secretary of Labor, Alex Acosta.
That agreement does NOT extend to the Southern District of New York.
Lawyers with the Southern District of New York will likely argue that Epstein is a flight risk, and should remain behind bars.
His defense team will fight that, though there is a chance they might acquiesce to home confinement for their client.
That would put him back in his Upper East Side TOWNHOUSE
...
This news comes just days after a judge ordered the unsealing of nearly 2,000 pages of records related to a civil case that could reveal how he and his accused accomplice Ghislaine Maxwell allegedly trafficked underage girls
The documents that will be unsealed are from a defamation case that was settled after Epstein entered a guilty plea guilty to a single charge of soliciting and procuring a person under age 18 for prostitution.
Records in the defamation case contained descriptions of sexual abuse by Epstein along with new allegations of sexual abuse by 'numerous prominent American politicians, powerful business executives, foreign presidents, a well-known prime minister and other world leaders.'

WTH Christine?
Agree with you, 10:14 AM.
She (and another one here) have a very poor grasp of prophecy and current events to be able to see the timeliness and who the players are in it all. All is very fluid right now. Constance remains constant, bless her, despite who comes to her blog to tell her how wrong they think she is.
Missing it by miles, and centuries too, in MCE's misguided take.
Nothing new there.
Christine,
How can you assert Luke 1:34 indicates Mary ‘not knowing a man’ is a permanent situation? This is an example of reading into the text (eisegesis). Here’s what it states in as literal a translation as possible:
And Mary said to the angel, “How will this be, since I do not know a man?”
The word for “know” is in the present tense-form (active indicative). Now, if this were in the Greek perfect tense-form, one may attempt an argument for this condition to remain in perpetuity—but it isn’t. It’s obvious in this context (Luke 1:29-34) Mary assumed her conception/pregnancy was imminent, i.e., before her upcoming marriage to Joseph. (Or even, perhaps, it had already started somehow, with her “how will this be?” referring to the future birth rather than future conception—in other words, that she was already pregnant—though this cannot be asserted with any measure of certainty.) To interpret this to mean that her present condition of ‘not knowing a man’ is to be a perpetual one, requires a further reading into the text as you’ve done with this: IF the marriage was to be in name only THEN Joseph and whoever arranged this would know. Well, that’s a big “IF”, and this is, as I already mentioned, an argument from silence—that is, the text nowhere states or even implies this. A problem arises with this position as it appears to run counter to the words in Matthew 1:25 (again, as literally as possible):
And he did not [come to] know her until she gave birth to a son, and he called the name of him Jesus.
Here ‘[come to] know’ is in the imperfect tense-form (active indicative). The imperfect can indicate either a past action with continuing duration or an action in the past that had some amount of duration. This tense-form is also used to indicate the inception of a certain action (e.g. Matt 5:2 Jesus began teaching). Taking the context of the sentence, it indicates a past action—past from the point of view of the narrator Matthew. And I contend that this should be understood as denoting inception, though I concede that the major English translations simply use “know” here. I am interpreting the “until” clause here as providing a marker for when Joseph and Mary would consummate their marriage.
Yet, the RCC position (and I presume your own) is that the text does not explicitly state Joseph, in fact, consummated his relationship with Mary even after Jesus’ birth, and that it only implies that he didn’t ‘[come to] know’ her during her pregnancy. The note in the NABRE states: [T]he evangelist is concerned to emphasize that Joseph was not responsible for the conception of Jesus. The Greek word translated “until” does not imply normal marital conduct after Jesus’ birth, nor does it exclude it. Well, yes, the text never goes on to explicitly state that Joseph eventually ‘knew’ her, but I must ask why the text we have includes the dependent clause “until she gave birth…”, if not to imply contingency. And, while the text is certainly phrased primarily to emphasize the Virgin Birth, if Matthew wished to convey perpetual virginity, there are other ways he could have done so. The most logical implicit sense in this context is that sometime after Jesus was born, the two consummated their marriage. To explain further by example, if I told you I did not eat my entrée until she finished her salad, you would logically assume I ate my entrée after she had finished eating her salad—not that I never ate the entrée.
The RCC’s (and your) stance further necessitates making the claim that the Greek word for “brothers” either indicates half-siblings or cousins—even though there is a perfectly good word for “cousins” in Koine Greek. All this to say, the perpetual virginity position sure must jump through many hoops, bypassing grammatical logic in the process.
How Many 'Elite' Pedophiles Are Freaking Out After The Jeffrey Epstein Arrest?
'Quite A Few Important People, Powerful People Sweating It Out Right Now'
By Susan Duclos
All News PipeLine
Convicted billionaire pedophile Jeffrey Epstein, who pleaded guilty to a Florida charge of felony solicitation of underage girls in 2008 and served a 13-month jail sentence, despite being accused of sexual abuse by more than 40 minor girls, has been arrested again, charged with sex trafficking of minors and one count of conspiracy to engage in sex trafficking of minors, which according to renowned legal scholar, attorney and professor at the George Washington University Law School, Jonathan Turley, could "produce a sentence of 45 years in prison if Epstein were convicted."
A couple points of background via Turley regarding how the original case against Epstein was handled in a disgraceful manner:
• Epstein was notorious for his infamous “Lolita Express” where he took friends like Bill Clinton by plane to his private estate on the Caribbean island of Little Saint James with young girls who allegedly were used as prostitutes.
(https://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2016/may/14/bill-clinton-ditched-secret-service-on-multiple-lo)
• Despite a strong case for prosecution, Epstein’s lawyers, including Alan Dershowitz and Ken Starr, were able to secure a ridiculous deal with prosecutors. He was accused of abusing more than forty minor girls (with many between the ages of 13 and 17). Sasse is correct, the handling of the case is a disgrace but it is unlikely to result in any real punishment. Certainly not for Epstein who pleaded guilty to a Florida state charge of felony solicitation of underage girls in 2008 and served a 13-month jail sentence.
• After the deal, it was revealed that not only did Clinton take the “Lolita Express” more than previously stated but that he notably told his Secret Service details not to come on the trips to what some called “Orgy Island.” Clinton was not the only fan of Epstein. President Donald Trump referred to him as a “terrific guy” in 2002, saying that “he’s a lot of fun to be with. It is even said that he likes beautiful women as much as I do, and many of them are on the younger side.”
I would note that since President Trump's wife Melania is over 20 years younger than him, on the "younger side," DOESN'T automatically mean "underage," as the liberal media is trying to imply using that statement.
GUILT BY ASSOCIATION IS NOT HOW THE LAW WORKS
Before delving into who should and who should not be sweating right about now for fear of incriminating evidence being exposed by this latest arrest of a man many thought would never see true justice because of his powerful friends and billions of dollars, we would like to address how members of the left and the right, are using the Epstein arrest as a hammer against political opponents using the "guilt by association" strawman.
Watching the internet chatter over the past few days since the arrest, we have seen people on the right side of the political aisle highlight how often Epstein donated to Democrat candidates.
(https://www.opensecrets.org/news/2018/12/billionaire-sex-offender-epstein-gave-heavily)
So what? He also gave to a limited amount of candidates on the right at one time, and has nothing to do with being complicit or participating in Epstein's alleged practice of providing underage girls to associates.
He also "rubbed elbows," with many prominent members of the left and the right, members of the so-called "elite" crowd.
Again, so what?
Guilt by association is not how the law works, and we certainly should never assume someone knew of Epstein's alleged crimes just because they knew him, dined with him or said nice things about him as President Trump did at one point.
Look at the BTK killer as just an example...... serial murderer, and his wife and children had no clue, nor did his neighbors or friends, yet he was brutal murderer, so just "knowing" someone and liking them, is not a crime.
One last point here for those that think because people heard "rumors" about Epstein before his original conviction, people should have "known" about his predeliction for underage minors, well rumors are not facts, evidence or proof.
Over the last couple of years we heard "rumors" by every liberal media outlet that a group of Covington Catholic students had "surrounded." "mocked," and taunted an elderly native American Vietnam vet, when in reality the man harassed the students, beating a drum in one kid's face, he approached them, and he never served in Vietnam.
We have heard the "rumor" from every liberal media outlet for three years that the Trump campaign "colluded" with Russia to interfere in the 2016 election..... again, false.
Need I go on about not convicting someone in the court of public opinion based on "rumors?"
'ELITE' PEDOPHILES SHOULD BE FREAKING OUT RIGHT ABOUT NOW
While the recently unsealed indictment against Epstein details his actions and abuse of underage victims, as well as the basis for the trafficking charge of transporting, arranging, paying victim "recruiters" to bring him more minor victims, and employees that facilitated the arrangements, according to the Miami Herald journalist, Julie K. Brown, whose investigative reporting brought new light to this case, there is evidence that Epstein may have also been providing these underage girls to others.
Via MediaIte:
“Needless to say, these are very powerful people and I think that they’re sweating a little bit — especially today,” Brown said on Up Sunday. “We don’t know how much, how deep this went, how far-reaching it went in government, but there’s been a lot of names that I could see on these message pads on a regular basis as part of the evidence. These message pads where they would call Epstein and leave messages such as, ‘I’m at this hotel.’ Why do you do that, unless you’re expecting him perhaps to send a girl to visit you at your hotel?”
“So there’s probably quite a few important people, powerful people, sweating it out right now,” she said. “We’ll have to wait and see whether Epstein is going to name names, or what kind of information he’s going to try to trade, in order to maybe get out of this in some way or lower his culpability.”
(http://archive.is/GT4pg#selection-19359.0-19371.302)
The names on the message pads, would indicate that at the very least, anyone that left the type of message referred to, if they were being supplied underage girls at their hotels by Epstein, then no doubt those individuals would be freaking out right about now. If the Herald writer saw those messages, there is no doubt that prosecutors have them, which could lead to an investigation of those hotel visits, which could include video footage from the hotel in question on those exact dates, showing young girls visiting the room those individuals were in.
So, we can assume those specific individuals should be "sweating" as Brown indicated.
Another person that should be sweating right now would be former President Bill Clinton, not because of his "association," but because even liberal media have documented his "Lolita Express" trips to Epstein's "Orgy Island."
Flight logs obtained by Gawker in January 2015 put Mr. Clinton on the billionaire’s infamous jet more than a dozen times — sometimes with a woman whom federal prosecutors suspect of procuring underage sex victims for Mr. Epstein. Fox News reported Friday that records show Mr. Clinton declined Secret Service protection on at least five flights.
The network’s investigation reveals Mr. Clinton flew on the Boeing 727 “Lolita Express” 26 times, more than doubling the previously reported 11 trips.
Here is a DocumentCloud link to those flight logs:
(https://www.documentcloud.org/documents/1507315-epstein-flight-manifests.html)
It is noteworthy that Epstein's "Orgy Island," allegedly provided guests with underage "sex slaves."
(https://pagesix.com/2015/01/24/sex-slave-claims-bill-clinton-visited-epsteins-orgy-island)
Side Note: In the interest of balance, liberal media is having a field day trying to connect President Trump with Epstein, on the basis of "guilt by association,"
(https://www.bloomberg.com/opinion/articles/2019-07-08/jeffrey-epstein-arrest-is-a-worry-for-donald-trump)
but back in December 2018, the attorney for the alleged victims of Epstein publicly stated that Donald Trump was the ONLY person they contacted in 2009 that "picked up the phone," he offered as much time as they needed, "was very helpful in the information he gave," and "had good information that checked out, and that HELPED US."
You can hear him say it at approximated the 5 minute mark in the video below:
(https://youtu.be/Yqb59n69Z80)
(Related: Trump Banned Epstein From Mar-a-Lago Years Ago, Here’s Why:
https://thefederalistpapers.org/opinion/trump-banned-epstein-mar-lago-years-ago)
Others that should be added to the list of people that should be freaking out after Epstein's arrest, are those that used and Epstein's homes, or "Orgy Island," for sexual encounters with underage girls.
According to a 2015 report, "Papers filed against his pervert pal Jeffrey Epstein say he recorded VIP orgies he threw at his luxury homes using cameras hidden in the walls."
(https://www.mirror.co.uk/news/uk-news/prince-andrew-been-secretly-filmed-4915421)
If Epstein has videos of any member of the "elite" with minor girls, that could either be uncovered by prosecutors and investigators, or could be used by Epstein in order to try for a plea deal or as "cooperation" for a lighter sentence if convicted, then those people should be very concerned right now.
Another person that prosecutors would probably be smart to talk to, is liberal actress Ellen Barkin, who also decided to try to "convict" President Trump on the basis of "guilt by association," and then in an act of sheer lunacy, admitted the following on Twitter: "Epstein’s pimp girlfriend, Ghislaine Maxwell, a very well-connected Brit socialite cannot just walk free. This woman is his pimp. She pilots planes to and from the island. I know because she told me. She is a sex trafficker."
(https://twitchy.com/samj-3930/2019/07/08/you-said-nothing-ellen-barkin-reminds-everyone-how-gross-hollywood-really-is-in-confession-about-epsteins-girlfriend)
Needless to say, other Twitter users had some pointed critique over her claim of being told the woman was a sex trafficker, but never said anything to anyone, nor reported it to authorities.
Others who should be very concerned right now, are whoever Nancy Pelosi's daughter considers "faves," meaning some of her and her families "favorite" persons or politicians?
Recently Christine Pelosi tweeted "This Epstein case is horrific and the young women deserve justice. It is quite likely that some of our faves are implicated but we must follow the facts and let the chips fall where they may — whether on Republicans or Democrats."
It is doubtful that the radically liberal Pelosi family has any "faves" on the Republican side, so it is curious that she made this preemptive warning. More on that over at American Thinker:

BOTTOM LINE - NO ONE SHOULD BE ABOVE THE LAW
When Epstein first received his sweetheart plea deal, many pointed to it as yet another example of the "elite" never having to pay for their crimes, and while the wheels of justice have been incredibly slow, after all Epstein's alleged crimes go back over a decade to 2002-2005, the FBI bringing charges against him over those crimes, at this time, shows that sometimes those wheels, while slow, DO continue to spin even after the general public believe it will never happen!

Did Jesus Have Brothers and Sisters?
Millions assume that Jesus Christ had no brothers or sisters in the flesh — that Mary, His mother, was a perpetual virgin.
But is this idea true?
WHEN Jesus came to His own hometown synagogue to preach, he astonished the people with His teachings. In their amazement, they asked, "Whence hath THIS man this wisdom, and these mighty works? Is not this the carpenter's son? Is not his mother called Mary? and his brethren, James, and Joses, and Simon, and Judas? And his sisters, are they not ALL with us?"
(Matt. 13:54-56).
Notice it!
This scripture clearly states that Christ had FOUR brothers, all of them being personally named. The added question, "And his sisters, are they not ALL with us?" implies that He had AT LEAST THREE SISTERS. If He had only two, they would have used the term, "both," instead of "all."
Some claim that these were not really brothers and sisters, only cousins. But Scripture reveals this is NOT TRUE.
Here is the proof.
The word "brethren" is translated from the Greek word for "brother" — "adelphos." This word may mean a spiritual brother, but it does NOT mean "cousin."
The English word "cousin" in Luke 1:36 and 58 is translated from "suggenes" in the original Greek. This clearly shows that the New Testament, when referring to Jesus' family, makes them brothers and not cousins.
Not Spiritual Brothers
What about the contention that these were Christ's spiritual brothers and sisters, instead of His blood brothers and sisters — His siblings. We find the answer in John 2:12. Christ went to Capernaum, accompanied by "His mother, and His brethren, AND HIS DISCIPLES." Here we find a sharp distinction is made between His BRETHREN and His DISCIPLES showing that they WERE NOT the same. His SPIRITUAL brethren WERE His disciples — those who believed His teachings. His flesh and blood brothers did not believe Him (John 7:5). This scripture certainly makes James, Joses, Simon and Judas His blood brothers.
In Mark's account of Jesus' visit to His hometown synagogue, we find the people wondering about His great wisdom. They asked, "Is not this the carpenter, the son of Mary, the brother of James, and Joses, and of Judas, and Simon? and are not his sisters here with us?" (Mark 6:3). These people, who had known Jesus from childhood, specifically stated that He was the brother of several other young people who had grown up in their midst. These people were VERY familiar with family relationships throughout the village. Notice that they are not called cousins, but brothers.
Christ the "Firstborn"
In Matthew 1:25 we find that Christ is called the "FIRSTBORN" son of Mary. The word "firstborn" is translated from the Greek word, "prototokon" which means the firstborn among other children — the oldest of several children in a family. If Jesus had been Mary's ONLY child, the Greek word "monogenes," meaning "only child," would have been used in the original Greek text. Jesus was the "only begotten" human son of the Heavenly Father (John 1:18). But He was the "first born" — not an "only child" — of Mary!
Many other New Testament scriptures tell us distinctly that Jesus Christ was not the only child of His mother.
In Galatians 1:18-19, Paul mentioned having seen not only Peter, but also James the Lord's brother in Jerusalem. We know that Paul was speaking of a brother in the flesh. If he had been speaking of a spiritual brother — a brother in the faith — he certainly would have included Peter among Christ's spiritual brethren. But he did not!
Paul knew that Christ had other brothers. He stated: "Have we not power to lead about a sister, a wife, as well as other apostles, and as the BRETHREN OF THE LORD, and Cephas [Peter]?"
(I Cor. 9:5). Notice that the brethren of the Lord are distinct from the twelve apostles. In Acts 1:13-14
we find that THE DISCIPLES "continued with one accord in prayer and supplication, with the women, and Mary the mother of Jesus, AND WITH HIS BRETHREN."
Some have, in argument, referred to Matthew 12:46-50. Here Christ said, "Whosoever shall do the will of my Father which is in heaven, the same is my brother, and sister, and mother." They have claimed this scripture as proof that when the Bible speaks of Christ's brethren, it means spiritual brethren. They claim therefore that He may not have had any brothers in the flesh. Such an argument is without foundation. If this scripture proved that Christ had no brothers or sisters, IT WOULD ALSO PROVE THAT HE HAD NO MOTHER. What Christ meant in this statement is that those who OBEY THE FATHER are all equally precious in His sight, regardless of blood relationship.
"My MOTHER'S Children"
As a final proof that Jesus Christ was not the ONLY CHILD of His mother, let us turn to Psalm 69:8, which all Bible scholars recognize as a prophecy concerning Christ. In this scripture we read, "I am become a stranger unto MY BRETHREN, and an alien unto MY MOTHER'S CHILDREN." Christ certainly was speaking of His PHYSICAL mother and brethren — blood relatives — in this prophecy. Christ's spiritual brethren are His followers — those who compose the true Church today (Matt. 12:49-50,
Rom. 8:16-17,29). Christ's spiritual brethren certainly recognized Him from the beginning of His ministry (John 1:35-49). He WAS a stranger (an alien) to His physical brethren, however. They did not believe in Him during His ministry (John 7:2-5), although some of them were converted after His resurrection.
Anyone who earnestly believes that the Holy Bible is the inspired Word of God, CANNOT fail to see these facts. These scriptures definitely PROVE — absolutely — that Jesus Christ did have brothers and sisters who were the children of His mother. Their father was Joseph. Joseph was the legal, not actual, father of Jesus. This means that Jesus and His brothers and sisters had the same mother, but not the same father.
The question we now must answer is this: Are we willing to TOTALLY SUBMIT ourselves to God and accept HIS DIVINE WORD as Truth? Or would we rather believe the edict of pagans who want to deify a woman by claiming her as a PERPETUAL VIRGIN? The doctrine of "perpetual virginity" is the teaching of Semiramis, the harlot founder of the Babylonian Mysteries. It is rank heathenism.
According to the Bible, Jesus' physical mother led a normal married life and bore Joseph, her husband, a number of children after the birth of Jesus Christ.
Any other doctrine is a FABLE.

Pope Francis Calls for End of Sovereignty and Establishment of Global Government
At a meeting of the Pontifical Academy held recently [May 2019], Pope Francis advocated a policy of decreased national sovereignty and increased global unity. A shift toward globalism is necessary, he said, in order to fight climate change and other worldwide “threats.”
"When a supranational common good is clearly identified, it is necessary to have a special authority legally and concordantly constituted capable of facilitating its implementation. We think of the great contemporary challenges of climate change, new forms of slavery and peace,” his holiness told those gathered to discuss “Nation, State, and Nation-State,” the conference theme.
Pope Francis put a pretty fine point on his message, claiming that planetary problems are exacerbated by “an excessive demand for sovereignty on the part of States.”
He moved on to immigration, declaring that nationalism is too easily twisted into a doctrine repugnant to the welcoming of immigrants. “The Church observes with concern the reemergence, in many parts of the world, of currents that are aggressive towards foreigners, especially immigrants, as well as a growing nationalism that neglects the common good,” Pope Francis said.
The latest report on the Jeffrey Epstein scandal is a BOMBSHELL !
First, Ann Coulter stated yesterday that she was of the opinion that Epstein was conducting a "state sponsored black mail operation." Make no mistake about this; people such as Coulter receive information (or leaks) from well placed sources.
Now, a report that appeared on Zero Hedge indicates that James Acosta told the Trump transition team that he was told to back off on the Epstein case because "Epstein belonged to intelligence." This certainly sounds plausible and explains why such a ridiculous plea deal was offered.
https://www.zerohedge.com/news/2019-07-10/bombshell-alex-acosta-reportedly-claimed-jeffrey-epstein-belonged-intelligence
Intelligence agencies, acting on behalf of governments, have been using black mail in order to achieve their goals for eons. The BIG QUESTION is, IF Epstein was operating for a state, which state was it?
This very well might be one of the biggest stories ever! It might also explain why warmongers such as Sen. Lindsey Graham and the late John McCain walked a certain line that was (and is) extremely beneficial to a certain country in the Middle East.
Regarding TD's post @ 8:09 AM ....
Further proof to be added to the very large heap that the VATICAN ... along with its head spokesman the "pope" is working very hard to implement a One World Government.
One World Government is the goal of the Babylonian, Satanic mind set that is determined to construct a new governmental, despotic, totalitarian Tower of Babel.
Those that will not comply, will forcefully re-educated. Those that will not comply, will be eliminated, as will the "useless eaters" of society.
The only "Christianity" that will be allowed will be the one that is subservient to what PLEASES the despotic government. And take ONE GUESS who it will be that will head up this monstrous, New World Order "state church?"
Take a look at the deal cut by the Vatican with the Communists in China and you'll be able to see what the future holds.
At his speech before the U.S. Congress, Pope Francis listed Trappist monk Thomas Merton as one of four exemplary Americans who provide wisdom for us today.
Jesuit Father John Hardon (1914-2000), who authored “The Catholic Catechism” at the request of Pope Paul VI said that the world renowned Thomas Merton was “not fully converted intellectually to the Catholic Faith” and that "The New Age movement mainly owes its genesis and development to Thomas Merton.”
Reverend Matthew Fox, who Constance Cumbey identified as being in all likelihood
the end-time "666" Antichrist in her two popular books, is a big promoter of Thomas Merton, and Fox recently stated that three forth's of the pope's encyclical on the environment presents his environmental theology. I promote Merton and Fox in my New Age Movement prophetic visionary mission. Fox and I once had a face to face meeting wherein we had a half hour conversation. Fox has given his support for my effort change the name of the "Rum" (Wahkon) River. My prophetic visionary mission was recently promoted on two of Fox's Daily Facebook Meditation posts. One of my comments on Fox's Facebook site reads:
World renowned prophets, especially including Dr. Vandana Shiva and Tom Goldtooth, are promoting the rights of nature. Both [Shiva and Goldtooth] are on the Executive Committee of the Global Alliance For The Rights of Nature. Promoting the rights of nature is now a global movement. An increasing number of court rulings and legislation worldwide are recognizing rights of nature to be protected and preserved. Rivers are in the spotlight and court rulings on the rights of rivers are the ones setting precedent. Mr. Goldtooth’s traditional Bdewakantonwan Dakota homeland’s land base is the badly named “Rum” (Wahkon) River Watershed in Minnesota. I am a Bdewakantonwan Dakota rights advocate leading the movement to change the name of the “Rum” River. Rev. Matthew Fox has given his support for this name-change effort. I am also seeking legal personhood environmental rights for this river and have recently corresponded with Goldtooth and Shiva-who are interested in my work. Rivers seem to be taking the lead in this rights-of-nature work of the Holy Spirit.
The response to my selected and posted comment reads: Dear Thomas, I send my deep gratitude for the work of the rights-of-nature movement and for the important advocacy you are doing for the Wahkon River in Minnesota. Giving nature a voice in its condition certainly suits the concerns of Creation Spirituality which encompasses the spiritual community of all creatures of Earth – including rivers. Thank you for lifting us up and giving us a direction to apply our prophetic action.

Journalist Now Charged With 'Controlling Minds' And 'Affecting The Human Subconscious' By REFERENCING ORWELL'S '1984' In His Article
By Sophie Tanno
Mailonline
7/9/19
Mikhail Romanov, a reporter for the Yakutsk Vecherniy weekly, was writing a story on the alleged torture of an academic.
Police in Russia's republic of Sakha charged Romanov after they suspected him of trying to tap into the readers' sub-conscience, Russian newspaper
Kommersant reported.
Romanov's editor told the publication: 'This is a story about how anyone can be squashed by the government machine.
'It's also about how Big Brother is watching, reading all comments on online forums.'
This is understood to be the first time a journalist will be tried under Russia's new legislation punishing those who are perceived to have published information 'containing hidden insertions affecting the human subconscious. '

I know, I know, I know. I mean if "His Holiness" is for a totalitarian global government, how could it possibly be BAD? The only thing that kind of has me questioning anything is past history. You know, there was another "His Holiness" that was all in for Hitler and the Nazis and also supported Mussolini .... but hey, everyone makes mistakes, right?
His Holiness is also all in for Climate Change ... how could it possibly be a hoax and a fraud?
Why should we have borders when "His Holiness" is against borders and walls?
Maybe if "His Holiness" ran the One World Government, everything would work out, because he's so kind?
Maybe we should just put all of our trust in the Globalists? They do seem like such nice people.
There .... I feel so much better already.
That is... a superhero comic book & movie TRILOGY in his future.
RayB,
His Holiness sends his warm regards and praises you for your appreciation of his positions. One thing The Holy Father did notice is that you are still using the term "Climate Change". No dear sir, though your heart is in the right place, the term that has the Pope's 'blessing', if you will, is Climate CRISIS!

Most Reverend and Honorable Guido:
Imagine my shock and pleasant surprise to find a post addressed to lowly, humble servant me, from such a holy luminary (kindly see 2 Corinthians 11: 14,15) such as yourself right here on this blog AND that the Big One Holiness Himself actually read my post! ARE YOU KIDDING ME?? WOW ! I'm walking on clouds !
I do apologize, Most Reverend Guido, for using "Climate Change" instead of "Climate Crisis." I'm so very sorry that my stupidity has caused "His Holiness" any concern. I was not in any way questioning "His Holiness," but confess my sin. I humbly and fearfully ask for an indulgence from "His Holiness" so that I don't have to spend extra time in Purgatory? Yes? Naturally, I don't expect in any way that to in order achieve the blessing from "His Holiness," that it would not come without a price.
Most Reverend Guido, pardon me for my crassness, but, I must ask; how much $$$ would you think it would cost to get me that Indulgence from the "Keeper of the Keys?"
I'm not looking forward to Purgatory already and I sure don't want to add to my time. I hope you understand.
Your humble, faithful, unquestioning, believing, superstitious, fearful, blind as a bat servant,

Like this is going to help??? Good practice, perhaps, for future barrel bombing "exorcisms".
"A Catholic bishop will spray holy water over an entire city from a military helicopter in an attempt to conquer the demons he believes are plaguing it.
Monsignor Rubén Darío Jaramillo Montoya will perform the mass exorcism for the Colombian seaport of Buenaventura during the city’s annual patron saints’ festivities.
“We want to go around the whole of Buenaventura, from the air and pour holy water onto it to see if we exorcise all those demons that are destroying our port,” he told a Colombian radio station.
The bishop, ordained in 2017 by Pope Francis, added he wanted to “get rid of all the wickedness that is in our streets” during the helicopter flight."
......
Last year the Vatican announced a new training course for exorcism because of the increased demand for “deliverance ministry”.
https://www.yahoo.com/news/bishop-spray-holy-water-over-104840369.html
6:59 PM
All very good for you to talk, but are you prepared to deal with the consequences if Buenaventura agrees with your critique and doesn't pay the exorcist?
Do you REALIZE what will happen?
They'll get repossessed!

Holy Water becomes "holy" when ordinary water is blessed by a Roman Catholic priest. Holy Water has amazing benefits, one of which is the ability to "repel evil."
Question: why doesn't "His Holiness" simply "bless" ALL of the earth's water, whereby, the entire earth would be cleansed by this amazing water. In case you are wondering if "His Holiness" has the power to perform this miracle, consider the power of the pope: "Whatever he binds on earth, is bound in heaven."
AND, as a side benefit, there wouldn't be the need to fly helicopters or air planes in order to dispense the Holy Water, which of course would help in the fight against the "Climate CRISIS."
High profile attorney Alan Dershowitz has been accused by one of Epstein's victims of molesting her during the time that she was a minor. Dershowitz was on the original legal team that helped negotiate the ridiculous plea deal that basically set Epstein free (13 month sentence, where he was allowed to leave during the day and was only required to "sleep" there 6 hours per night). Dershowitz has recently said that the plea agreement was a "great deal" and that he "would do it again" for his client Epstein.
There is something very sleazy about Mr. Dershowitz. Everyone is a liar, according to Dershowitz, except of course him.

Alan Dershowitz Admits Massage At Epstein’s But Says, ‘Kept My Underwear On'
By Ellen
NewsHounds
July 11, 2019
In shades of “I did not inhale,” Alan Dershowitz admitted he got a massage at Jeffrey Epstein’s mansion but insists he kept his underwear on and never saw an underage girl there.
As Crooks and Liars noted, Axios’ Jonathan Swan revealed to Fox News viewers on Tuesday that, in an interview, Dershowitz had said he got a massage at Epstein’s from “an old, old Russian” and that he had said he saw no one underage. “What is THIS?” Swan asked incredulously.
...
On Wednesday, Crooks and Liars followed up with a local news report from WPLG about Dershowitz at the Epstein mansion. The report shows Dershowitz stating emphatically, “I never saw an underage woman” at Epstein’s mansion. But it also shows a transcript of Epstein’s former butler’s sworn testimony stating Dershowitz HAD been there when “young ladies” were around.
"Were there young women in another part of the [Epstein] house giving massages when I wasn’t around? I have no idea of that,” Dershowitz said in the WPLG report. Then we saw the clip of Dershowitz admitting he had had a massage there but “kept my underwear on.”
However, thanks to the Miami Herald’s reporting, we know there was a HUGE number of girls going in and out of Epstein’s mansion (the Herald “identified about 80 women who say they were molested or otherwise sexually abused by Epstein from 2001 to 2006”) and we know that Epstein insisted they be YOUNG.
So Dershowitz’s “I knew nothing” claim seems less and less believable. That’s not counting the fact that he has been accused of having sex with two of Epstein’s trafficked minors, which he adamantly denies. But The Hollywood Reporter’s Eriq Gardner pointed out that Dershowitz has been "play[ing] chicken in court." Gardner explained that first Dershowitz trolled one of the woman into suing him for defamation, claiming he’d win on the merits, yet is now trying to get the suit dismissed on other grounds and without ANY delving into the facts!

How to Protect Your Children from Predators Like Jeffrey Epstein

Part of the problem is also tied to the media coverage of these allegations. Dr. Janet Rosenzweig, the executive director of the American Professional Society on the Abuse of Children, noted that "we have to change the social norms to make it clear that there’s no such thing as ‘underage women’ – they’re children. There’s no such thing as a ‘child prostitute’ – it’s a victim.' The inherent tension in these terms, and the prevalence of their usage, disguises the shocking nature of the alleged actions of these men."

The fact is, NO WOMAN WOULD SAY SUCH A THING IN ANY TENSE IF SHE EXPECTED TO EVER HAVE SEX AT ALL will never, have never, don't currently whatever, doesn't matter. no form of the question makes sense if she expected to consummate the marriage. or to consummate the engagement making it a marriage (Greek word for marriage is based on word for sex). The natural assumption would be that in near future after she started having sex with her man she would conceive. and the results would be a great man maybe the messiah. But Mary asks how she can get pregnant.
the usual reasons given by RC and EO for perpetual virginity don't hold water one second. but THIS does. it is not that important, what MAry did or didn't do after Jesus' conception before or after His birth, has no bearing on JEsus' identity or divinity.

Mary referred to your father and I being worried when he stayed behind at the Temple, but Joseph was putative (presumed and present as such accepted as such, adoptive) father, not Jesus REAL father Who is God The Father in heaven.

Most of the million visitors who visit Stonehenge on Salisbury Plain every year believe they are looking at untouched 4,000-year-old remains. But virtually every stone was re-erected, straightened or embedded in concrete between 1901 and 1964, says a British doctoral student.
“What we have been looking at is a 20th-century landscape, reminiscent of what Stonehenge might have looked like thousands of years ago,” says Brian Edwards, a student at the University of the West of England in Bristol.
Stonehenge isn’t the only ancient site to have been transformed in recent years, he says. “Even many of the local people in Avebury weren’t aware that a lot of the stones were put up in the 1930s,” he told New Scientist.
The major reconstructions that took place at Stonehenge and Avebury early last century couldn’t be repeated at a major site today, thinks Edwards. “But it probably is happening in small museums and heritage centres up and down the country,” he says.
English Heritage says it is now considering covering the Stonehenge alteration programme in detail in the next edition of its official guidebook to the site. A decision not to include the work in official guides was taken in the 1960s, says Dave Batchelor, English Heritage’s senior archaeologist.
The first restoration project took place in 1901. A leaning stone was straightened and set in concrete, to prevent it falling.
More drastic renovations were carried out in the 1920s. Under the direction of Colonel William Hawley, a member of the Stonehenge Society, six stones were moved and re-erected.
Cranes were used to reposition three more stones in 1958. One giant fallen lintel, or cross stone, was replaced. Then in 1964, four stones were repositioned to prevent them falling.
The 1920s ‘restoration’ was the most “vigorous”, says Christopher Chippindale of the Cambridge University Museum of Archaeology and Anthropology. “The work in the 1920s under Colonel William Crawley is a sad story,” he says.
Edwards thinks the public needs to be told – or reminded – about restorations to buildings or sites considered by many people to be pristine.
“We have an obligation to be honest and talk about the whole history of a site,” he says. “In quite a number of cases, there is a huge difference between what historians know and what the public consciousness is about those sites.”
In many cases, the line between what can be considered essential restoration work, and significant rebuilding, is unclear, says Edwards. “There is always the question of how far do you go."

BOOM! Scott Adams uses Dilbert to Diss the ‘Climate Crisis’ Again
“Climate Change ” Is The New Universal Boogeyman
Eric Worrall / WUWT
July 15, 2019
Genius cartoonist Scott Adams published a Sunday cartoon panel offensive to the climate religion.
(Dilbert / Scott Adams teasing followers of the climate religion - https://dilbert.com/strip/2019-07-14)
Just in case you think this cartoon is too ridiculous to be true, there are plenty of real world examples of people trying to blame climate change for their own failures.
Climate change has been blamed for everything from the flooding of the Nile, to wildfires in California, which were actually made worse by incompetent forestry management, and caused by a clear lack of electrical line maintenance.
And of course, climate change is top of the list when any flooding or levee failure occurs. If climate change is accepted as the cause of the problem, nobody thinks to investigate shoddy substandard work and sudden cash windfalls.
Climate change – the go to excuse for the incompetent and corrupt.
Note from Anthony: In what is probably the worst example of blaming climate change, Bill McKibben’s flying monkeys at 350.org blamed the Oroville dam spillway disaster on climate change AND blamed the November 2018 Paradise wildfire disaster on climate change too. They even got our local city council to declare a “climate emergency”.
Stupidity burns like white phosphorous! – Anthony

How US Media - With ONE Star Exception - WHITEWASHED The Jeffrey Epstein Story
The Miami Herald exposed a vast criminal network and a government cover-up – but why the silence elsewhere?
Ed Pilkington
The Guardian
Sat 13 Jul 2019
When Julie K Brown of the Miami Herald approached a former police chief of Palm Beach, Florida, in 2017, hoping to get him to open up about his investigation of the child sex crimes for which the wealthy financier Jeffrey Epstein had been fleetingly jailed a decade earlier, she was surprised by how unresponsive he was.
Michael Reiter told Brown he had been down this road many times and was sick of it. As Brown recalled in a WNYC interview last month, Reiter said he had talked to many reporters and told them precisely where to find damning evidence against Epstein. But nothing ever came of it.
“He was convinced that a lot of media had squashed the story and he was fed up,” she said.
Reiter warned Brown what would happen were she to continue digging: “Somebody’s going to call your publisher and the next thing you know you are going to be assigned to the obituaries department.”
Brown did not heed his warning. She flung herself at the investigation and eventually persuaded Reiter to go on record. Her resulting, award-winning three-part series last November exposed a vast operation in which 80 potential victims were identified, some as young as 13 and 14 at the time of the alleged abuse. She persuaded eight to tell their stories.
Brown also exposed a government cover-up in which Epstein got away with an exceptionally light sentence that saw him serve only 13 months in jail. She discovered that a “non-prosecution agreement” had been negotiated secretly in 2008 by the then top federal prosecutor in Miami, Alexander Acosta, that gave Epstein and his co-conspirators immunity from federal prosecution.
In 2017, Acosta was appointed by Donald Trump as labor secretary, a post that ironically is responsible for combating sex trafficking.
The media’s handling – or mishandling – of the Epstein affair is a story of extremes.
It is a heartwarming success story, of how one intrepid reporter pierced the veil of secrecy and found the truth. Brown’s coverage has had consequences: Epstein was arrested last Saturday and indicted on new sex trafficking charges by New York prosecutors who praised her work. In the fallout, Acosta was forced to resign.
But there is also a less cheerful narrative. Why did the police chief’s appeals to the media fall on deaf ears? Why would so many years pass before the shocking extent of Epstein’s crimes and Acosta’s sweetheart deal were revealed by a local newspaper with severely limited resources?
In fact, the two extremes of the story are directly linked: Brown told WNYC one of the reasons she began looking into Epstein was that she was puzzled about the public silence surrounding him.
“There really was nobody pursuing this at all,” she said. “That was one of the things that intrigued me about this case. Why isn’t anyone standing up and screaming?”
‘I believe him … I’m Canadian’
That silence stretches all the way back to 2003, when Vicky Ward wrote a profile of Epstein for Vanity Fair. During her reporting, she was introduced to a mother and her two daughters from Phoenix, Arizona who alleged Epstein assaulted the girls, one of whom was 16 at the time.
Ward told the Guardian she spent a lot of time with the family discussing whether they should go public.
“They were frightened,” she said. “The mother told me that every night when she walked the dog she looked over her shoulder.
I asked the women what they were going to do and they said they would lick their wounds and retreat
Eventually, the women agreed to go on the record, Ward said, and when Epstein was told about their accounts he went “berserk”. Epstein had already threatened to get a witch doctor to put a curse on Ward’s unborn children – she was pregnant with twins at the time – and now he campaigned to stop Vanity Fair publishing the allegations, even turning up unannounced at the office of the then editor, Graydon Carter.
Publication was delayed, then Ward was told the paragraphs on the abuse of the women had been deleted.
“I was extraordinarily upset,” she said. “I asked the women what they were going to do and they said they would lick their wounds and retreat, as this was exactly what they feared would happen.”
Ward believes Carter caved under Epstein’s pressure. She recalls confronting the editor about the excised paragraphs, and said she has a note in her archives that has Carter saying: “I believe him … I’m Canadian.”
Carter remembers events very differently. In his account there were legal issues around the women’s stories that prevented publication, most significantly that the women themselves were unwilling to go on the record.
In a statement to the Guardian, Carter said: “I respected the work Vicky Ward did at Vanity Fair but unfortunately her recounting of the facts around the Epstein article is inaccurate. There were not three sources on the record and therefore this aspect of the story did not meet our legal and editorial standards.”
Ward says she has documentary evidence that shows the women were emphatically prepared to go public, including fact-checkers’ and legal emails to Epstein from Vanity Fair asking for his response to the allegations made by both sisters.
The Guardian spoke to the mother of the girls, Janice Farmer. She said all three did speak to Ward in 2003 and told her on the record what Epstein had done, including allegations he had invited her youngest daughter, then 16, to his New Mexico ranch and molested her.
“I was hesitant to go public because I was worried about the safety of my daughters – by that point I didn’t trust Jeffrey at all,” Farmer said. “But I did want him to be exposed.”
She said she recalls vividly agreeing with Ward along with her daughters for their stories to be told in her Vanity Fair profile. She also said she recalls vividly her reaction when she learnt that part of the piece was not to be published.
“I felt angry,” she said. “I felt like Jeffrey’s money, power, connections – whatever – had been put into play.”
There is another complicating element to the story. In 2011, after Epstein had gone to jail, Ward wrote a blogpost for Vanity Fair. In it she used language that was strikingly uncritical of Epstein, referring to him as “not without humor” and praising him for being highly knowledgable.
She referenced Epstein’s sex crimes as “sexual peccadilloes” and referred to her 2003 Vanity Fair profile of him, saying it had alluded to his sexual relationships with young women but “didn’t really go there, focusing instead on … how Jeffrey made his money”.
The piece went on: “This is not to say I didn’t hear stories about the girls. I did. But, not knowing quite whom to believe, I concentrated on the intriguing financial mystery instead.”
The Guardian put this blogpost to Ward and she said she regretted writing it. At that point, she said, the victims she had interviewed were not willing to talk. But nonetheless, “this blog did not need to be written – here I am toeing the Vanity Fair party line”.
‘My journalism benefited from #MeToo’
Fast forward to 2007, when Acosta reached his bizarrely lenient plea deal with Epstein. By then, investigators had identified 35 potential victims who said they had been lured into Epstein’s Palm Beach mansion and sexually assaulted.
Yet records obtained by the Miami Herald showed prosecutors led by Acosta actively worked with Epstein’s attorneys to minimize media coverage.
One of Acosta’s prosecutors wrote in an email to Jay Lefkowitz, an Epstein lawyer: “On an ‘avoid the press’ note … I can file the charge in district court in Miami which will hopefully cut the press coverage significantly. Do you want to check that out?”
That Acosta felt that he had to resign on Friday was an indication that the collective failure of US media to grapple with a story of serial sex trafficking and abuse that had been hiding in plain sight for years no longer holds true. In the wake of Brown’s exemplary reporting, the rest of the American media has fallen in line. Acosta paid the price.
*WHAT foreign country might this be? And WHY would its identity be deliberately left unsaid?
There is a certain nation in the Middle East that is given a free pass on just about everything .... including a vicious, pre-meditated attack upon our Naval ship the USS Liberty, in which 34 Americans lost their lives (were murdered) and another 174 were critically wounded.
That may in part be thanks to the #MeToo movement that had not erupted when Brown began her investigation but did draw attention to her work when it was published. As she told MSNBC after Epstein’s arrest last weekend: “My journalism benefited from #MeToo as we [started] giving these cases much more scrutiny.”
Mary Angela Bock, associate professor in the University of Texas at Austin’s school of journalism, said #MeToo had dented the prevailing patriarchy that has existed in newsrooms for decades and that had led to sexual crimes being overlooked as merely “the way of the world”.
“#MeToo has led to greater awareness among journalists that this is NOT OK,” she said. “This is NOT ‘boys being boys’. This is RAPE and sexual exploitation of CHILDREN.”

What your post fails to take into account is the power of the Grand Duchy Of Luxembourg and its level of influence. That you apparently know nothing of this is but illustrative of its immense power to keep the scale of its reach hidden in the shadows.
So it may NOT be Israel but LUXEMBOURG that is being deliberately shielded from public scrutiny...

Here is another thing to pray about in relation to asking God's help that justice be done in this matter, and that is that the number of persons in positions of power that Epstein could expose in exchange for a lighter sentence would quite possibly think that they'd, in that case, be better off without him around and so would attempt to accomplish that by either trying to arrange an unprecedented escape or, failing that, his untimely demise (maybe even 'Jack Ruby' him).
However God Almighty is incomparably more powerful than all of them put together and HIS will WILL be done!

Proving Hitchcock Right, Bird Attacks Are Turning Violent THIS SUMMER
Red-Winged Blackbirds AND OTHER SPECIES are STEPPING UP divebombing attacks on humans
July 15, 2019
By Fleming Smith
Wall Street Journal
Stephen Vedder used to enjoy peaceful lakeside runs near his Marlborough, Mass., home. THIS SPRING, after YEARS of coexisting with an ornery neighbor, those tranquil outings came to an END.
It started with a whack to the back of the head. Next, Mr. Vedder was divebombed. Then CLAWED.
The culprit was a Red-Winged Blackbird.
More than 250 million of the birds live across North and Central America, and THIS SUMMER some are feeling extra aggressive toward human neighbors—driving them to change walking routes, wear protective headgear or furiously wave arms above their heads as they jog.
...
"This is ‘The Birds’ all over again, but it’s REAL!” says Mr. Vedder, a 60-year-old programmer.
Many people who have long lived in harmony with the birds have noticed an uptick in their aerial assaults THIS season.
...
Parks departments and natural resource offices across several states ALSO recorded an increase THIS SPRING of Hawk and Wild Turkey attacks.
...
Faye Park, 48, worries her dark hair attracts a Red-Winged Blackbird that swoops by her head every time she runs past a lake near her Denver home. She had run by a flock of the birds for years. ONLY IN THE PAST SIX MONTHS has one begun bombarding her, a few times a week. “All of a sudden it got very aggressive,” says Ms. Park, president of a public-interest group. “I have no idea why.”
She avoids the lake’s south side, worried she’ll attract the bird’s 'friends' and get SWARMED.

Well, looks like 'Climate Crisis' may be going the way of 'Climate Change' which is going the way of 'Global Warming' which is going the way of 'Global Cooling'!
What's the NEW scare tactic phrase, er, that is: NEW socially aware term, you ask?
Climate CATASTROPHE!
(No, really!)
On The (London) Guardian's website:
"The Guardian will engage with the most critical issues of our time – from the escalating climate catastrophe to widespread inequality to the influence of big tech on our lives."
Why can't the Pope pray to end the Climate CATASTROPHE ??
I mean, they claim that "whatever he binds on earth, is bound in heaven," so why not BIND the Climate???
He better hurry up and do something, as in QUICK .... we've got less than 12 years left according to the scientific genius AOC.
Should we praying for God to "bless" America ... or ANY nation for that matter that is in rebellion against Him?
As you know, the Book of Psalms is a book of prayer, praise, wisdom, prophesy, etc.
Here is one "prayer" that I have NEVER heard uttered by any Pastor:
"Arise, O LORD; let not man prevail: let the heathen be judged in thy sight. Put them in fear, O LORD: that the nations may know themselves to be but men. Selah." Psalms 9: 19,20
I pray that the Lord will shake the foundations of the earth and put FEAR into the hearts and minds of all people.
Without FEAR of the Lord, His Word is taken lightly, and His warnings are forsaken.
Pastor's? What Pastors???

Once again the extra broad brush criticism of all things Israel.
God does have a plan for them though you exclude them completely with nary a word to say something in their behalf that shows God's plans include a future and a hope for them as well.
12:26 PM
You seem to mean well but you're apparently confusing me with someone else on this blog. I NEVER said it WAS Israel. I was lightening things up ABOUT the topic of WHAT country is Jeffrey Epstein's alias identity passport issued by. The news accounts state it was (VERY strangely) DELIBERATELY not specified, just called "foreign". So it was NOT stated to be ANY particular country, Israel included, and so therefore I did NOT say that it WAS Israel, I said it MAY BE. Who knows? Maybe it's CANADA! And anyway, are we supposed to IGNORE things that may reflect badly on a particular country UNLESS in the same breath we always put something like "...but God DOES have a plan for them and God's plans include a future and a hope for them as well!"?
Sorry, but that's quite absurd.
That being said it's great to spread words of hope for the future about people.
But please don't insist it that it HAS TO accompany any real (or perceived) criticism!
That's ridiculous.
There is room for criticism and that's not new. Good and bad are everywhere.
What would be new would be..for you..to post something actually good about the Jewish people and the nation of Israel instead of always, as in always, casting them in a bad light. It's like you have to make sure they get a negative jab, if even only in passing.
I find that ridiculous.
◄ Psalm 9:7-20 ►
The LORD reigns forever, executing judgment from his throne.
He will judge the world with justice and rule the nations with fairness.
The LORD is a shelter for the oppressed, a refuge in times of trouble.
Those who know your name trust in you, for you, O LORD, do not abandon those who search for you.
Sing praises to the LORD who reigns in Jerusalem.
Tell the world about his unforgettable deeds.
For he who avenges murder cares for the helpless.
He does not ignore the cries of those who suffer.
LORD, have mercy on me.
See how my enemies torment me.
Snatch me back from the jaws of death.
Save me so I can praise you publicly at Jerusalem’s gates, so I can rejoice that you have rescued me.
The nations have fallen into the pit they dug for others.
Their own feet have been caught in the trap they set.
The LORD is known for his justice.
The wicked are trapped by their own deeds.
The wicked will go down to the grave.
This is the fate of all the nations who ignore God.
But the needy will not be ignored forever; the hopes of the poor will not always be crushed.

The Greatest Scientific Fraud Of All Time — Part XXIII
Wednesday, July 17, 2019
(Natural News) The scandal that I call “The Greatest Scientific Fraud Of All Time” is the alteration of official world temperature data by a small number of government employees in the US and the UK. Uniformly, the alterations have the effect of lowering temperatures early in the record, and raising recent temperatures, in order to create and enhance a warming trend that does not exist in the data as originally reported. The purpose of the fraudulent data alteration is to support the continuation of the “global warming” climate scare. To read the prior 22 posts in this series, go to this link:
https://www.manhattancontrarian.com/blog/tag/Greatest+Scientific+Fraud
(Article by Francis Menton republished from ManhattanContrarian.com)
Despite what you might think from reading the mainstream press, the past few years in world temperatures have not been particularly good for the continuation of climate alarm. No matter how you measure them (the main methods being ground thermometers, weather balloons, and satellites), world atmospheric temperatures have gone down for more than three years since a peak reached in early 2016. The data set that I consider to be the most reliable — the satellite-based measurements from the University of Alabama at Huntsville — gives the global temperature “anomaly” for the most recent month (June 2019) as +0.47 deg C. That is well down from the peak of +0.88 deg C in early 2016, and represents a decrease of about a third of what had been the entire increase since the satellite record began in 1979. Here is the most recent UAH global lower atmosphere temperature graph: [chart]
The failure of temperatures to continue to rise in accordance with alarmist model predictions has left the alarm-promoting guys at NASA and NOAA without fodder for their former annual “hottest year ever!!!” press releases. From the NASA end-of-year-2018 release:
2018 Was the Fourth Warmest Year, Continuing Long Warming Trend. . . . The 2018 global temperature average ranks behind 2016, 2017, and 2015.
I leave it for you to figure out how a year that was down from 2017, which in turn was down from 2016, somehow “continues[es] [a] long warming trend.” In a real “long warming trend,” shouldn’t each year be successively warmer than the previous year?
So what is to be done?
Readers of this series will not be surprised to learn that in this period where not so many people are looking, the temperature adjusters have been beavering away in the bowels of their collections of data, continuing to send inconvenient readings of the past down the memory hole, and to “adjust” the temperatures of the past down, and of the present up. Let me provide a small roundup of some things that have been discovered recently.
At NoTricksZone on June 25, Pierre Gosselin posts some work by a Japanese guy named Kirye. Kirye is a Japanese climate skeptic Twitter-blogger, but his Twitter page is in Japanese, so you probably won’t be able to read it. Kirye noticed that NASA came out on June 14 with a new version, version 4, of its surface-thermometer-based temperature series known as GISTEMP. GISTEMP v.4 is now based on the records of the also-newly-adjusted Global Historical Climate Network group of temperature stations, now called GHCN v.4. Kirye then analyzes the new data from NASA at six particular and widely-scattered weather stations: Punta Arenas, Chile; Marquette, Michigan; Port Elizabeth, South Africa; Davis, Antarctica; Hachijojima, Japan; and Valencia, Ireland.
Sure enough, there have been additional adjustments, as always in the same direction — older down, and newer up. But those adjustments between v.3 and v.4 have been relatively minor. More significantly, Kirye discovered a different maneuver which is even more incredible, and which he proves by direct links back to NASA’s own website: In the v.4 graphs that it provides, NASA has relabeled the hugely-adjusted v.3 data as “unadjusted.”

Epstein warned the senator of big tech election meddling during his testimony before the Senate Judiciary Committee Hearing on "Google and Censorship through Search Engines" on Tuesday.
Swami B. V. Tripurari wrote in his book, Ancient Wisdom for Modern Ignorance: "Our present environmental crisis is in essence a spiritual crisis. We need only to look back to medieval Europe and the psychic revolution that vaulted Christianity to victory over paganism to find the spirit of the environmental crisis."
"Inhibitions to the exploitation of nature vanished as the Church took the 'spirits' out of the trees, mountains, and seas. Christianity's ghost-busting theology made it possible for man to exploit nature in a mood of indifference to the feelings of natural objects. It made nature man's monopoly. This materialist paradigm has dominated the modern world for the last few centuries."
"The current deplorable environmental crisis demands a spiritual response. A fundamental reorientation of human consciousness."
While calling for a fundamental reorientation of human consciousness, or a new spiritual relationship between man and nature, Al Gore, in his book "Earth In The Balance," praises traditional Native American spiritualism, which has a true spiritual sense of our place in nature. In spite of this calling of Gore's and other influential leaders, the Christian church continues to promote its old earth-destroying relationship between man and nature. Christianity believes man is separate from nature and is suppose to dominate it. Native American spiritualism believes man is a part of nature and that he is to live in harmony with nature.
Mr. Gore wrote: "The spiritual sense of our place in nature predates Native American cultures; increasingly it can be traced to the origins of human civilization...the prevailing ideology of belief in prehistoric Europe and much of the world was based on the worship of a single earth goddess...The last vestige of organized goddess worship was eliminated by Christianity as late as the fifteenth century in Lithuania."
In spite of the value of Native American spiritualism and the value of the spiritualism of all the Indigenous peoples residing throughout the western hemisphere, the Christian church has been trying, since the European Christian invasion of the Americas, to completely eliminate it by genocidal colonization processes - it's a church mission fueled by racism, religious bigotry and corporate greed - which have been ongoing for 500 plus years.

Homeland Security has gutted programs aimed at detecting weapons of mass destruction
JULY 18, 2019
By DAVID WILLMAN
LOS ANGELES TIMES
WASHINGTON — The Trump administration has quietly dismantled or cut back multiple programs that were created after the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks to help detect and prevent terrorism involving weapons of mass destruction, a Times investigation has found.
The retreat has taken place over the last two years at the Department of Homeland Security, which has primary domestic responsibility for helping authorities identify and block potential chemical, biological, radiological and nuclear threats.
The changes, not previously reported, were made without rigorous review of potential security vulnerabilities, The Times found, undermining government-wide efforts aimed at countering terrorist attacks involving unconventional weapons, known as WMD.
More than 30 current and former Homeland Security employees and contractors voiced concern that the changes — including the cancellation of dozens of training exercises and the departure of scores of scientists and policy experts — have put Americans at greater risk.
...
[Not good news as it may well make a 'false flag' event easier to carry out (although, that being said, aside from anything else, any so-called 'preventative programs' SHOULD'VE been axed IF they were violating the Constitution and Bill Of Rights)!]
Okay.

Your "True BIBLICAL Christianity" is based on lying scriptures. Not all Bible scriptures tell the truth. There is a lot of modern-day scientific evidence that proves that the Bible sometimes lies. It's the "True Biblical Christians" who are destroying the earth. And judgement day is coming! The global warming climate crisis is not a hoax.
Global warming is one big crock of crap. If anything, we are headed into global cooling with the present Maunder Minimum taking hold. But taxing the masses for global warming and limiting the use of coal, wood, oil and other fossil fuels is for the benefit of the ones in the know, so they can prepare by hoarding the resources necessary to survive the possible mini ice age coming, while leaving the masses unprepared and ripe for the great culling of the herd.
Anyone else who says different is either a liar or an idiot. Regardless of which they are, they are not worth listening to or even debating. Simply ignore them and let them wither away, let their word fall on def ears.

"It's Going To Be Staggering": Epstein Associates Prepare For Worst As Massive Document Dump Imminent
By Tyler Durden
Zero Hedge
7/19/19
As the Jeffrey Epstein case continues to unfold, a laundry list of celebrities, business magnates and socialites who have flown anywhere near the registered sex offender's orbit are now tainted withpedo-polonium. Many of them, such as Bill Clinton, Ehud Barak, and Victoria's Secret boss Les Wexner have sought to distance themselves from Epstein and his activities - however their attempts have fallen on deaf ears considering their extensive ties to the pedophile.
As Vanity Fair's Gabriel Sherman notes, "The questions about Epstein are metastasizing much faster than they can be answered: Who knew what about Epstein’s alleged abuse? How, and from whom, did Epstein get his supposed $500 million fortune? Why did Acosta grant Epstein an outrageously lenient non-prosecution agreement? (And what does it mean that Acosta was reportedly told Epstein “belonged to intelligence”?)"
Also illuminating is a statement by attorney Brad Edwards, who said during a Wednesday press conference seated next to Epstein accuser Courtney Wild that "There were other business associates of Mr. Epstein’s who engaged in improper sexual misconduct at one or more of his homes. We do know that," adding "In due time the names are going to start coming out."
What's more, the US Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit will release of approximately 2,000 pages of documents, likely over the next several days, which may reveal sex crimes committed by "numerous prominent American politicians, powerful business executives, foreign presidents, a well-known prime minister, and other world leaders," according to the court's three-judge panel.
The documents were filed during a civil defamation lawsuit brought by Epstein accuser Virginia Roberts Giuffre, a former Mar-a-Lago locker-room attendant, against Epstein’s former girlfriend and alleged madam, Ghislaine Maxwell. “Nobody who was around Epstein a lot is going to have an easy time now. It’s all going to come out,” said Giuffre’s lawyer David Boies. Another person involved with litigation against Epstein told me: “It’s going to be staggering, the amount of names. It’s going to be contagion numbers.” -Vanity Fair
Other famous names associated with Epstein include LinkedIn cofounder Reid Hoffman, Elon Musk, and Mark Zuckerberg, who Musk introduced to the registered sex-offender. Zuckerberg spokesman told Vanity Fair "Mark met Epstein in passing one time at a dinner honoring scientists that was not organized by Epstein," adding "Mark did not communicate with Epstein again following the dinner."
Musk told the magazine "I don’t recall introducing Epstein to anyone, as I don’t know the guy well enough to do so, Epstein is obviously a creep and Zuckerberg is not a friend of mine. Several years ago, I was at his house in Manhattan for about 30 minutes in the middle of the afternoon with Talulah [Riley], as she was curious about meeting this strange person for a novel she was writing. We did not see anything inappropriate at all, apart from weird art. He tried repeatedly to get me to visit his island. I declined."
Uh, this is Jeffrey Epstein’s “friend” and alleged madam Ghislaine Maxwell with @elonmuskat the Oscars in 2014. These people were everywhere I suppose... pic.twitter.com/kCeIimdbCm

According to one source, Epstein had a steady stream of who's who's flowing into his Manhattan mansion, including Bill Gates, Larry Summers, and Steve Bannon.
"Jeffrey collected people. That’s what he did," the source told Vanity Fair.
Thus far, the name most publicly associated with Epstein’s alleged crimes is famed lawyer Alan Dershowitz, who’s been waging a public battle with David Boies for years. In April, Boies’s client Giuffre sued Dershowitz for defamation after Dershowitz called her a liar (a strategy similar to that of seven of Bill Cosby’s accusers). In the days since the FBI arrested Epstein at Teterboro Airport a week and a half ago, Dershowitz has been going on television and dialing up friends and reporters to profess his innocence and label Giuffre and Boies liars. “I want everything to come out! I’m not afraid of anything because I did nothing wrong,” Dershowitz told me on the afternoon of July 15.
He called me a minute after I had emailed him for comment. He said he’d been friends with Epstein since 1996, when they were introduced at a party on Martha’s Vineyard by Lynn Forester de Rothschild. “She begged me to meet him. She told me, ‘here’s this smart academic.’” A few days later, Epstein invited Dershowitz to Les Wexner’s 59th birthday party at Wexner’s mansion in New Albany, Ohio. “It’s a tradition that Jeff invited the smartest person he met that year. He told them I was the smartest.” They remained close for years. Dershowitz strenuously denied ever participating in Epstein’s underage sex ring and said he’d only been in Epstein’s presence with his wife. “I got one massage!” he told me. “It was from a 50-year-old Russian woman named Olga. And I kept my shorts on. I didn’t even like it. I’m not a massage guy.” -Vanity Fair
DC on edge
"Epstein bragged about his contacts in Washington," said attorney David Boies.
According to the report, "One theory circulating among prominent Republicans is that Epstein was a Mossad agent. Another is that the George W. Bush White House directed Acosta not to prosecute Epstein to protect Prince Andrew on behalf of the British government."
"The royal family did everything they could to try and discredit the Prince Andrew stuff," said Boies. "When we tried to follow up with anything, we were stonewalled. We wanted to interview him, they were unwilling to do anything."
And now we await those documents!

...
By 2021, U.S. Navy destroyers will be armed with new ship-fired lasers able to sense and incinerate enemy drones, low-flying aircraft [including UFO's? WHAT will happen THEN?] and small boat attacks — all while firing at the speed of light.
...
Now that lasers are being applied to warships we should be seeing further rollout across the military.
...
If this is what is being shown to the public, one can only imagine what is really being planned for the future of warfare.

EVERYONE IS BROKE BUT YOU DON’T HAVE TO BE A DEBT SLAVE ANY LONGER
July 19, 2019
By Dylan Charles
Editor, Waking Times
Look around in this fancy land called the U.S. and you’ll get the impression that people are just rolling in dough. They got fabulous new cars, expensive houses loaded up with imported goods, the latest smart phones, designer wardrobes, and they’re never about to turn down a good time.
But it’s all an illusion. It’s fake.
In reality, 80% of Americans are in debt and living paycheck to paycheck. Which means most of us are broke, and almost nobody owns anything at all. All that great stuff you see all around isn’t true prosperity, it’s owned by banks and it all serves as chains in a modern form of slavery.
...
Debt slavery is the new normal, and it’s no accident.
We’re part of an economic and monetary system BUILT on debt!
...
(https://www.wakingtimes.com/2019/07/09/fractional-reserve-banking-how-to-create-money-out-of-thin-air)
...
But you CAN escape!
ANYONE can.
...
You DON'T have to tolerate a life as a slave to personal debt. You don’t have to live forever with student loans, car payments and mountains of credit card debt.
What’s at stake here is you freedom. That is, the quality of your life in the short time you get to be alive here on earth.
Financial literacy is not something most of us learn in school, and so very few of us have had positive examples of this in our lives, but there is a system to get out of debt that works very well, and there is a network of support that can teach you how, get you inspired, and keep you motivated as you walk your own path to freedom.
Having found myself in deeply debt a couple of times in life, and then working my way to being 100% debt free, I can tell you that there is really no feeling quite as joyful as being free.
The method I have found that works the best to achieve this is referred to as the ‘debt snowball’ and is outlined in the book, The Total Money Makeover: A Proven Plan for Financial Fitness by Dave Ramsey.
I was about to spell it out for you when I found an exceptional breakdown of it by Daisy Luther of the excellent blog, The Organic Prepper. Check it out, as it is the quickest way to get yourself out of debt:
"Dave recommends something called 'the Snowball Method' for repaying debt quickly. Imagine a snowball at the top of a hill. As you roll the snowball, you pick up more snow, and the snowball gets bigger. By the time it’s at the bottom of the hill, it’s huge. You can do the same thing with debt by paying off the smallest bill first, then applying what you’d normally pay on that lowest bill to the next bill. Continue adding the minimum payment for each paid-off bill to the next largest one until all of your debt is repaid.
"I have personally used this technique to attack debt, with a few tweaks of my own.
"Here’s a more detailed explanation of how the Snowball Method works.
"1.) Write down every penny you owe. This is tough love, and it’s painful, but go through all your bills and write down your totals. Most people find that the total is higher than they expected. The good news is, if you are truly committed to paying off your debt, this is the highest that it will be!
"2.) Organize the bills from smallest to largest amounts. This may not seem like it makes much sense, but trust me…there’s a method to the madness here.
"3.) Write another list of the minimum payments for each bill. This is your baseline of payments each month. For the sake of ease, let’s say there are ten bills with a total of $750 in monthly minimum payments.
"4.) Now, figure out the rest of your budget. Once you pay your rent/mortgage, buy groceries, and pay the utility bills, how much money do you have on top of your $750 a month? For this exercise, we’ll say you have an extra hundred dollars.
"5.) Your worksheet might look something like this:
[chart]
"6.) Now, you’re going to start putting all of your extra money on the lowest bill each month. So, the first month, you make all of your minimum payments, put $80 extra on the Victoria’s Secret bill to pay it off, and then apply your leftover $20 to the JC Penney’s bill.
"7.) The following month, take the minimum payment from Victoria’s Secret, the minimum from JC Penney’s, and your extra $100 to pay off your JC Penney’s debt. Keep in mind that due to interest, your other debts will not change much at all if you are only making the minimum payment. For the sake of this exercise, we’re living them as they are to demonstrate that.
"8.) The month after that, you’ll combine all of your previous minimum payments with your extra hundred dollars, plus the minimum for Target for a total of $185 against that bill. It will take you two months of snowballing to pay this off.
"And that’s how you pay off consumer debt quickly.
"Do you get the idea?
"Instead of flailing away with minimum payments and a little extra when you can, make a concrete plan to take down debt as fast as possible. It can feel strange to only make minimum payments on the larger debts, but trust me, this is much more efficient than just paying a little extra here and there. If you get new windfalls while you’re paying off debt, like tax returns or bonuses, apply them to your smallest bills.
"This method assumes you have enough money coming in to make your basic payments, plus a little bit extra. If you’re in a situation in which you truly do not have enough money to pay your bills, this article will be more appropriate:
(https://www.theorganicprepper.com/how-to-survive-when-you-cant-pay-your-bills)
"Sometimes we get into debt due to bad decisions and sometimes it’s out of desperation.
...
"That’s all in the past. Don’t beat yourself up, because that’s ultimately counterproductive. Just commit to getting out of debt as quickly as you can and do you best to avoid the same pitfall in the future!

You may recall responding to me about the '"time" before time' issue in the past, but it's come up anew. This time it's supposedly some within the Physics realm asserted this to be true. Here's a PBS video explaining this viewpoint. Do you find it has any validity?

A Sensational Book For Any Who Have Now Become Intrigued Upon Hearing The VERY Fascinating Concept (Mentioned Above) About The 'Time Before Time':
"THE AWESOME MYSTERY OF GOD"
http://triumphpro.info/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2011/06/god-mystery-of-book.pdf
An 10/31/2018 article entitled "Analyst says 'New Age' beliefs more popular as fewer Americans follow traditional religions" is located at:
https://thehill.com/hilltv/what-americas-thinking/414129-analyst-says-new-age-beliefs-are-partially-a-reflection-in-more.
The article is presented below.
The growing popularity of "New Age" beliefs likely stems in part from fewer Americans following traditional religions, according to political analyst Ruy Teixeira.
"The data suggests this is the fastest growing religious group in America, are people who don't hold any firm religious beliefs," Teixeira, a senior fellow at the Center for American Progress, said Wednesday on Hill.TV's "What America's Thinking."
"Perhaps these New Age beliefs are in a sense, at least partially, a reflection of more and more people not having an orthodox religious set of beliefs," he added.
Teixeira was discussing a recent Pew Research Center poll that found 62 percent of Americans hold New Age beliefs, such as astrology and the presence of spiritual energy in trees or mountains.
Seventy-eight percent of those who held at least one New Age belief said they did not affiliate with any particular religion.
The survey also found that those who identify as Christian were more likely than atheists and agnostics to hold at least one New Age belief.
Sixty-one percent of respondents who identified as Christian said they held at least one New Age belief, compared with 22 percent of atheists and 56 percent of agnostics who said the same.
Sixty-seven percent of mainline Protestants, 47 percent of evangelicals and 70 percent of Catholics said they believed in a New Age belief.

Again TD presents the same idiotic reasoning to make his case:
"So-&-so(s) believe(s) thus-&-such New Age (&/or Climate 'Crisis', etc.) stuff and so, then, should YOU!"
Pathetic.
If you look at different groups of people all around the world you will become aware that the vast majority of people believe what they [want to believe,] and what they want to believe is what [most people believe] in the nation or region of the world where they live. If they live in a nation that is dominantly Christian they will choose to be Christian. And if they live in a nation that is dominantly Muslim they will choose be Muslims. And they will believe that their religion is the one true religion and that their scriptures are the "word of God" and that no other religion's scriptures are true. And if you present scientific evidence to these people who are of these different religions that proves that their religion is false, the vast majority of them will go into denial mode and reject the evidence. They have abandoned common sense reasoning, a gift from God that is essential to finding and believing in what is true. I suspect and am almost sure that Constance Cumbey and most of the people who come on this blog and believe in her theology are following the same idolatrous principle that most people around the world follow.
Well, you have certainly named your personal poison, Dahlheimer.
Your new age idolatry..
We human beings are all given a freewill by the very LORD and very GOD you can't stand so you use that same freewill He gave you to spurn Him. Whatever.
I wonder why you need to come here to this blog then since it is not well received.
But is really no mystery since you are so easy to see through, because you and the new age "M.O." is to disparage with half truth or no truth at all, and manipulate to twist argument and debate--to force--to cram--your brand of idolatry down other throats, using both stealth and increasingly now will be a global forcing, to accomplish your goals.
By all means then, give it your go with that freewill you are greatly misusing to actually attempt to take freewill from others as best you can.
Anonymous 12: 09 PM your comment does not make any sense. Why do you believe that your LORD and God is not Satan or some other evil entity who is deceiving you and others? When a Bible scripture says something is true and a scientific discovery prove it is false, why do you keep on believing that your LORD and GOD only tells the truth? Is it because you have abandon common sense reasoning? The majority people in America believe in traditional Christianity and this is why they are absolutely convinced that their religion it the only true religion and that their religion's scriptures always tell the truth. They quote scriptures from the Bible and believe that it tells the truth and that if anyone does not believe it they are fools. The real fools are the people who believe a scripture is absolutely true because most people in the nation where they live believe it is true. Jesus said "Wide is the gate and broad is the way that leads to destruction and many go that way. It is a form of idolatry to follow the "way of the many" principle.
Did you all catch what a stupefyingly moronic thing TD just said? Quite amazing! He bemoaned how people get their beliefs by following the crowd WHICH IS EXACTLY WHAT HE WAS JUST CALLED ON FOR ENDLESSLY PROMOTING OTHERS TO DO HIMSELF!
P.S. That TD said at 11:17 AM.
(Not his VERY latest stupefyingly moronic statement.)
Hi Constance
Sorry that this is somewhat off topic but I though that your blog would be a relevant place to put this link.
Im not sure how aware you are of these the Extiction Rebellion campaign on your side of the pond. But this is serious and more than a little bit of a concern.

OMG Dahlheimer,
And again as you've done a million times; you say the Bible is a bunch of lies, and then you quote Jesus, from the Bible!
You wrote;
"They quote scriptures from the Bible and believe that it tells the truth and that if anyone does not believe it they are fools. The real fools are the people who believe a scripture is absolutely true because most people in the nation where they live believe it is true. Jesus said "Wide is the gate and broad is the way that leads to destruction and many go that way. It is a form of idolatry to follow the "way of the many" principle."
Amazing.
But this time you've outdone yourself. You're completely self contradictory as usual but this time you up the ante by saying that Christians follow the "way of the many", which is nonsense. The "many" would be the pagan hoards of which you are so defensive. The pagan, superstitious, New Age people far outnumber the basic Bible believing Christians in this world by a large margin. As far as where one lives in this country, I myself live in what must be one of the most pagan, New Age, anti-God, Anti Christ, witchcraft loving areas anywhere, but we few Christians don't follow the way of the many as accuse us. We follow Jesus Christ. Jesus Christ was crucified by people just like you, Tommy Boy. You still crucify him every time you begin to write another of your weekly (weakly) rants.
Indeed the gate is wide and the way is broad... that YOU follow. You get to make crap up as you go along, embrace all manner of witches and wizards, and align yourself with the clamoring mob that hates anything and everything Christian.
You're basically chanting and repeating "Crucify him! crucify him!"
Oh and as far as the muslims "wanting to believe" what they all believe in their respective regions, that's another load of crap that you dropped off here. People in muslim countries don't have any choice what they believe. They are forced in kindergarten to memorize pages and pages of the quran, and if they refuse, well there's alway beheading and stoning and burning alive for those people.
The United States of America has never compelled anyone to believe in Jesus, and it never will. That's a major part of our Constitution. But that's not the case in most muslim countries. Most of the Muslim Brotherhood warriors aren't even literate in their own language! But they sure can quote the very aggressive language of war and hatred for the Jews and the Christians that is all through the q'ran, verbatim. It's all they know.
Thomas Dahlheimer you are a bald faced liar. You come to kill, steal and destroy, just like your father.

We've reported previously several times on ANP that if the globalist pedophile ring which revolved around Jeffrey Epstein and which could include Bill Clinton and a number of prominent US politicians was about to come crashing down, these politicians and other 'bigwigs' with global ties would use one of their foreign nation pawns to help launch a major war in an attempt to get themselves out of the mess they are in and with tensions with Iran now approaching an all-time high, we're not the least bit surprised that is happening at a time when what might be THE biggest political scandal in US HISTORY is unfolding.
As the Organic Prepper reported in this recent story titled "These Prominent People Must Be PANICKING About What the Epstein Case Will Reveal", "Some of you may be wondering why a preparedness website is publishing articles about Epstein. There are several reasons we have decided to report on this horrifying case. One is that current events matter when it comes to preparedness. It is possible that eventually, many prominent world leaders and public figures will be implicated in this scandal. This could cause chaos and rioting." Imagine what Democrats might do should 'Bill and Hill' be among them.
And while Steve Quayle had left an SQnote while linking to their story warning "the real puppet masters will throw some of their own to the the wolves to keep their existence hidden", we'll take Steve's warning a step further and propose: "the real puppet masters will throw THE ENTIRE WORLD to the wolves to keep their existence hidden".
So we'll take a look within this ANP story at the latest stories indicating the world may be heading towards a devastating war while reminding everybody of this April of 2018 Washington Free Beacon story in which expert witnesses to Congress had testified that Iran has a hidden sleeper cell network all across the America, some possibly here for 20 years or more, ready to attack our nation. We'll also remind you that some experts believe that Iran already has a nuclear weapon as explored more below. And in the final section below, we'll take a look at some last minute war prepping with the clock ticking down towards WW3.

Not to be funny but realize that Mr. Thomas Dahlheimer REALLY is a mental case:
Time after time after time he repeats the same 'mantras' over & over again, i.e. the Bible has lies, the climate crisis is real, the Bible was written by Satan, etc., DESPITE being inundated over the years with exceedingly sound rebuttals. He just ignores them and desperately keeps clinging to his security blanket of disproven 'beliefs' and regurgitates them to us ad nauseum with NO end in sight. Argue with him all you want but understand that in his current mental state it's tantamount to debating a duckling.
Hey Dahlheimer,
I'm readin' you loud and clear because I'm really pickin' up what you're settin' down so thanks! That duck vibe is really reaching my soul!
Wow. That's powerful medicine O noble Dahlheimer..
So quack quack, right back at ya.
LOL
(A duckling, you see, is of a mindset that causes it to make THE SAME NOISES OVER AND OVER AND OVER AGAIN and any attempt to rationally convince it otherwise would be, well, like water off a duck's back.)

THE HONEY TRAP ON E 71ST
by Eric Margolis
July 20, 2019
NEW YORK – I’ve had many strange experiences in my decades of covering intelligence affairs. These run from being invited to KGB HQ in Moscow, Chinese intelligence in Beijing, US intelligence in Virginia, Libyan intelligence in Tripoli, South African intelligence, and even Albanian intelligence in Tirana.
But none was odder than the day I was invited to lunch in New York City with the by now notorious figure Jeffrey Epstein. The golden boy of Manhattan and Palm Beach society now sits in a grim jail cell accused of having sex with underage girls. He’s been doing this in plain view since the early 1990’s but, until recently, he seemed bullet-proof.
Soon after I walked into the entrance of Epstein’s mansion on E 71st Street, said to be the city’s largest private home, a butler asked me, ‘would you like an intimate massage, sir, by a pretty young girl?’ This offer seemed so out of place and weird to me that I swiftly declined.
More important than indelicacy, as an old observer of intelligence affairs, to me this offer reeked of ye old honey trap, a tactic to ensnare and blackmail people that was old when Babylon was young. A discreet room with massage table, lubricants and, no doubt, cameras stood ready off the main lobby.
I had arrived with Canada’s leading lady journalist who was then close to Epstein’s sometime girlfriend, Ghislaine Maxwell and, it was said, procuress – something Maxwell denies. Bizarrely, Maxwell believed that I could get KGB Moscow Center to release satellite photos that showed the murder on his yacht of her father, the press baron Robert Maxwell, who was a well-known double agent for Israel and KGB, and a major criminal.
Also present was the self-promoting lawyer, Alan Dershowitz, who had saved the accused murderer Claus von Bulow, as well as a titan of the New York real estate industry (not Trump) and assorted bigwigs of the city’s elite Jewish society. All sang the praises of Israel.
-----
It seems likely that political influence was brought to bear on then US attorney Alexander Acosta (he just resigned under fire last week) to make a sweetheart deal with Epstein, who had been charged by Florida with child molestation. Epstein got off with a token, 13-month jail sentence that allowed him to work from his office much of the day.
-----
There was talk of some sort of ‘intelligence’ angle to the affaire Epstein that spared him a harsh sentence.
A respected former CIA official, Phil Giraldi has come right out and accused Epstein of being an Israeli agent of influence. Epstein was let off with a slap on the wrist on his first child abuse charge, says Giraldi, because of his powerful Israel connections. To Giraldi and this writer, the Epstein ‘massage’ operation was a classic intelligence operation designed to blackmail men of influence into doing Israel’s bidding. Clinton had reportedly already fallen into this trap years earlier while still president.

Talk about draining the swamp.

"one verse you'll hear the protestants toss out to prove that Mary had other children, is the one about Jesus
brothers and mother, coming to see him. That's the one that I used. Till I used a line of thinking that I had not
thought of before - culture and language.... in the Eastern culture, all relatives are your brothers and sisters.
In Ethiopia, we could never figure out who a person was introducing us to, because, even if they were only
slightly related, we were told: "This is my brother, or this is my sister..." Then, it was my own language, Tamil,
that floored me. In my language, there is NO word for cousin! If I were to introduce you to my cousins, I'd
have to use the words 'brother' or 'sister'. So, if my conversation got translated into English, it would be lost
that it's my cousin I was introducing, and that person would now become my brother or sister! The culture
and the language of Jesus' time, being so close to these other eastern cultures, suddenly puts a cloud on that
verse that protestants use with so much confidence. All of a sudden, that verse can't prove anything. But,
different things work for different people."

Nature of Koine v. Classical? by Rodney J. Decker
Assistant Professor of Greek and Theology Calvary Theological Seminary, Kansas City
"Attic Greek has a more complex syntax and morphology, while Koine Greek is somewhat simpler, rarely using
or not using at all some verb tenses or some resources of a more cultivated language....
St Luke ... when using material from other sources, he generally respects them as such, keeping some features
of a more popular language, in the times....
if you begin by learning Biblical Greek, if later you want to study Attic Greek you would have to re-learn
many things in more depth, including the most complex features lacking, in general, in Biblical Greek."
https://forum.wordreference.com/threads/classical-greek-vs-new-testament-koine-greek.2893057/
"Not only was Koine Greek common in the sense it enjoyed widespread usage throughout the Roman Empire,
but it was also common in the sense that it was not the language of the intellectual and academic elites.
Classical Greek was used by the educated class. Koine Greek was the language of the working man, the
peasant, the vendor, and the housewife—there was nothing pretentious about it. It was the vernacular, or
vulgar language, of the day. The great works of Greek literature were written in Classical Greek. No scholar
today would care to study anything written in Koine Greek, except for the fact that it is the language of the
New Testament. God wanted His Word to be accessible to everyone, and He chose the common language of the
day, Koine." https://www.gotquestions.org/Koine-Greek.html

Christine,
You miss the point. I'm well aware that Koine is not as refined as Attic or Classic Greek, but you made other inferences that are not germane to this fact. I simply stated, "You don't know enough about Koine Greek to be taken seriously on the subject." This is still true.
Your statement was:
koine was STREET Greek, think "black english" vs. proper english. Very likely sloppy at times. Not as crude as a pidgin dialect, but slangy, barbarian (not Greek) influenced, street peddler Greek. and MAry being startled, she might not express herself precisely.
This is a non sequitur. One has nothing to do with the other. But, I'm sure next Sunday you'll argue that it is...
By the way, some NT books are much better written than others. Luke and Acts are among those that display the best Greek.

Thanks in advance for indulging me. From my point of view, I think this is an important issue.
Question: "Did Jesus have brothers and sisters?"
Answer: Jesus’ brothers are mentioned in several Bible verses. Matthew 12:46, Luke 8:19, and Mark 3:31 say that Jesus’ mother and brothers came to see Him. The Bible tells us that Jesus had four brothers: James, Joseph, Simon, and Judas (Matthew 13:55). The Bible also tells us that Jesus had sisters, but they are not named or numbered (Matthew 13:56). In John 7:1-10, His brothers go on to the festival while Jesus stays behind. In Acts 1:14, His brothers and mother are described as praying with the disciples. Galatians 1:19 mentions that James was Jesus’ brother. The most natural conclusion of these passages is to interpret that Jesus had actual blood half-siblings.
Some Roman Catholics claim that these “brothers” were actually Jesus’ cousins. However, in each instance, the specific Greek word for “brother” is used. While the word can refer to other relatives, its normal and literal meaning is a physical brother. There was a Greek word for “cousin,” and it was not used. Further, if they were Jesus’ cousins, why would they so often be described as being with Mary, Jesus’ mother? There is nothing in the context of His mother and brothers coming to see Him that even hints that they were anyone other than His literal, blood-related, half-brothers.
A second Roman Catholic argument is that Jesus’ brothers and sisters were the children of Joseph from a previous marriage. An entire theory of Joseph's being significantly older than Mary, having been previously married, having multiple children, and then being widowed before marrying Mary is invented without any biblical basis. The problem with this is that the Bible does not even hint that Joseph was married or had children before he married Mary. If Joseph had at least six children before he married Mary, why are they not mentioned in Joseph and Mary’s trip to Bethlehem (Luke 2:4-7) or their trip to Egypt (Matthew 2:13-15) or their trip back to Nazareth (Matthew 2:20-23)?
There is NO biblical reason to believe that these siblings are anything other than the actual children of Joseph and Mary. Those who oppose the idea that Jesus had half-brothers and half-sisters do so, NOT from a reading of Scripture, BUT from a preconceived concept of the perpetual virginity of Mary, which is itself CLEARLY unbiblical: “But he (Joseph) had no union with her (Mary) until she gave birth to a son. And he gave Him the name Jesus” (Matthew 1:25). Jesus had half-siblings, half-brothers and half-sisters, who were the children of Joseph and Mary. That is the clear and unambiguous teaching of God’s Word.
https://www.gotquestions.org/Jesus-siblings.html
Did Jesus have siblings?
Yes, Jesus had at least six siblings. These included his brothers James, Joseph, Simon, and Judas as well as at least two sisters. (Matthew 13:54-56; Mark 6:3) Those siblings were natural children of Jesus’ mother, Mary, and her husband, Joseph. (Matthew 1:25) The Bible calls Jesus “the firstborn” of Mary, which implies that she had other children.—Luke 2:7.
Misconceptions about Jesus’ brothers
In order to support the idea that Mary remained a virgin all her life, some have applied different meanings to the term “brothers.” For example, some feel that Jesus’ brothers were actually sons of Joseph by an earlier marriage. However, the Bible shows that Jesus inherited the legal right to the kingship promised to David. (2 Samuel 7:12, 13; Luke 1:32) If Joseph had been father to sons older than Jesus, the eldest of these would have been Joseph’s legal heir.
Could the expression refer to Jesus’ disciples, or spiritual brothers? This idea conflicts with the Scriptures, since the Bible says that at one point “his brothers were, in fact, not exercising faith in him.” (John 7:5) The Bible distinguishes Jesus’ brothers from his disciples.—John 2:12.
According to another theory, Jesus’ brothers were actually his cousins. Yet, the Greek Scriptures use distinct words for “brother,” “relative,” and “cousin.” (Luke 21:16; Colossians 4:10) Many Bible scholars acknowledge that Jesus’ brothers and sisters were his actual siblings. For example, The Expositor’s Bible Commentary states: “The most natural way to understand ‘brothers’ . . . is that the term refers to sons of Mary and Joseph and thus to brothers of Jesus on his mother’s side.”
This series of verses clearly shows that Mary, who was a virgin at the birth of Jesus, came together in sexual union with her husband after His birth. Matthew 1:18 (NKJV) reads, “Now the birth of Jesus Christ was as follows: After His mother Mary was betrothed to Joseph, before they came together, she was found with child of the Holy Spirit.”
This implies that, as husband and wife, they eventually shared intimate relations.
Continuing in Matthew 1:20: “But while he thought about these things, behold, an angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream, saying, ‘Joseph, son of David, do not be afraid to take to you Mary your wife, for that which is conceived in her is of the Holy Spirit.’”
The angel did not express any words forbidding Joseph to take Mary to him as his wife, but instead encouraged him with the words “do not be afraid to take to you Mary your wife.” The angel did NOT say, “Do not dare touch Mary for she is a perpetual virgin.”

Did Mary Have Other Children?
By Matt Slick
One of the more controversial teachings of the Catholic church deals with the 'perpetual' virginity of Mary. This doctrine maintains that Mary remained a virgin after the birth of Jesus and that biblical references suggesting Jesus had siblings are really references to cousins (Catechism of the Catholic Church, paragraph 510).
As the veneration of Mary increased throughout the centuries, the vehicle of 'Sacred Tradition' became the means of promoting new doctrines not explicitly taught in the Bible. The virginity of Mary is clearly taught in scripture when describing the birth of Jesus. But is the doctrine of her continued virginity supported by the Bible? Did Mary lose her virginity after Jesus was born? Does the Bible reveal that Mary had other children--that Jesus had brothers and sisters?
The Bible does NOT come out and declare that Mary remained a virgin and that she had no children. In fact, the Bible seems to state OTHERWISE:
Matthew 1:24-25, "And Joseph arose from his sleep, and did as the angel of the Lord commanded him, and took as his wife, and kept her a virgin until she gave birth to a Son; and he called His name Jesus." Matthew 12:46-47, "While He was still speaking to the multitudes, behold, His mother and brothers were standing outside, seeking to speak to Him. And someone said to Him, "Behold, Your mother and Your brothers are standing outside seeking to speak to You." Matthew 13:55, "Is not this the carpenter's son? Is not His mother called Mary, and His brothers, James and Joseph and Simon and Judas?" Mark 6:2-3, "And when the Sabbath had come, He began to teach in the synagogue; and the many listeners were astonished, saying, "Where did this man get these things, and what is this wisdom given to Him, and such miracles as these performed by His hands? "Is not this the carpenter, the son of Mary, and brother of James, and Joses, and Judas, and Simon? Are not His sisters here with us?" John 2:12, "After this He went down to Capernaum, He and His mother, and His brothers, and His disciples; and there they stayed a few days." Acts 1:14, "These all with one mind were continually devoting themselves to prayer, along with the women, and Mary the mother of Jesus, and with His brothers." 1 Cor. 9:4-5, "Do we not have a right to eat and drink? Do we not have a right to take along a believing wife, even as the rest of the apostles, and the brothers of the Lord, and Cephas?" Gal. 1:19, "But I did not see any other of the apostles except James, the Lord's brother."
(All quotes are from the NASB.)
An initial reading of these biblical texts seems to clear up the issue: Jesus had brothers and sisters. But such obvious scriptures are not without their response from Catholic Theologians. The primary argument against these biblical texts is as follows:
In Greek, the word for brother is adelphos and sister is adelphe. This word is used in different contexts: of children of the same parents (Matt. 1:2; 14:3), descendants of parents (Acts 7:23, 26; Heb. 7:5), the Jews as a whole (Acts 3:17, 22), etc. Therefore, the term brother (and sister) can and does refer to the cousins of Jesus.
There is certainly merit in this argument; however, different contexts give different meanings to words. It is not legitimate to say that because a word has a wide scope of meaning, that you may then transfer any part of that range of meaning to any other text that uses the word. In other words, just because the word brother means fellow Jews or cousin in one place, does not mean it has the same meaning in another. Therefore, each verse should be looked at in context to see what it means.
Lets briefly analyze a couple of verses dealing with the brothers of Jesus.
Matthew 12:46-47, "While He was still speaking to the multitudes, behold, His mother and brothers were standing outside, seeking to speak to Him. And someone said to Him, "Behold, Your mother and Your brothers are standing outside seeking to speak to You."Matthew 13:55, "Is not this the carpenter's son? Is not His mother called Mary, and His brothers, James and Joseph and Simon and Judas?"
In both of these verses, if the brothers of Jesus are not brothers but His cousins, then who is His mother, and who is the carpenter's father? In other words, mother here refers to Mary. The carpenter in Matt. 13:55 refers to Joseph. These are literal. Yet, the Catholic theologian will then stop there and say, "Though carpenter's son refers to Joseph and mother refers to Mary, brothers does not mean brothers but "cousins." This does not seem to be a legitimate assertion. You cannot simply switch contextual meanings in the middle of a sentence unless it is obviously required. The context is clear. This verse is speaking of Joseph, Mary, and Jesus' brothers. The whole context is of familial relationship: father, mother, and brothers.
Psalm 69, A Messianic Psalm
There are many arguments pro and con concerning Jesus' siblings. But the issue cannot be settled without examining Psalm 69, a Messianic Psalm. Jesus quotes Psalm 69:4 in John 15:25, "But they have done this in order that the word may be fulfilled that is written in their Law, they hated Me without a cause."
Jesus also quotes Psalm 69:9 in John 2:16-17, "and to those who were selling the doves He said, "Take these things away; stop making My Fathers house a house of merchandise." His disciples remembered that it was written, "Zeal for Thy house will consume me."
