Ephesians 5:8-20
and justice and truth.
of those things
are made manifest by the light:
"Awake you who sleep and
arise from the dead,
and The Messiah will give you light".
because the days are evil.
what the will of the Lord is.
wherein is excess;
and hymns and spiritual songs,
singing and making melody in your heart to the Lord;
unto God
our Lord Jesus Messiah.
Rom 3:9
What then?
are we better than they?
No, in no ways:
for before we laid to the charge
both of Jews and Greeks,
that they are all under sin;
as it is written,
There is no-one righteous, no, not one;
There is no-one that understands,
There is no-one that seeks after God;
They have all turned aside,
they have together become unprofitable; There is no-one that does good,
no, not, so much as one:
Their throat is an open grave;
With their tongues they use deceit:
The poison of asps is under their lips:
Whose mouth is full of cursing and bitterness:
Their feet are swift to shed blood;
Destruction and misery
are in their ways;
And the way of peace
they have not known:
There is no fear of God
before their eyes.
Now we know that what so ever things the law says, it speaks to them
that are under the law;
that every mouth may be stopped
and all the world may be brought
under the judgment of God:
because by the works of the law
no flesh will be justified in his sight;
for through the law comes the knowledge of sin.
But now apart from the law a righteousness of God
has been manifested,
being witnessed by
the law and the prophets;
about the righteousness of God
through faith in Jesus The Messiah
unto all who believe;
for there is no distinction;
for all have sinned
and fall short of the glory of God;
however,
being justified freely by His grace through the redemption
that is in Jesus The Messiah:
whom God set forth
to be a propitiation,
through faith in His blood,
to show His righteousness
because of the passing over of the sins done in the past
in the forbearance of God;
for the showing of His righteousness
at this present season:
that He might Himself be just
and the justifier of a person
who has faith in Jesus.
Where then is the glorying?
It is excluded.
By what manner of law? or of works?
No: but by a law of faith.
We reckon therefore
that a person is justified by faith
apart from the works of the law.

Open Tomb
6 June 2016, Monday.
Now, three times on different days have I seen a cloud similar to the above one,
with a big gap right through.
I took photos of the 1st two, but not the last one, but never published them and by now have deleted them, not realizing what they meant.
This morning while praying I received the insight that they portrayed the open tomb of Jesus, in other words they where symbolic messages of the resurrecting of Jesus. The message of resurrection is in the sky.
1 Corinthians 15: 12-23
Now if The Messiah is preached that he has been raised from the dead,
how do some among you say
that there is no
resurrection of the dead?
If there is then 'no' resurrection
of the dead, then neither had
The Messiah been raised:
and had The Messiah not been raised, then our preaching would be in vain,
and your faith would also be in vain.
Yea, we would then be found
false witnesses of God;
because we witnessed of God that
He raised up The Messiah:
whom He 'would not have raised up',
if it was so that the dead are not raised.
For if the dead are not raised
and neither The Messiah been raised: and your faith was thus in vain;
then you would still be in your sins.
Then also they who are fallen asleep
in The Messiah, would have perished.
If we have only hoped in The Messiah
for this life, we are of all people
most pitiable.
But now The Messiah
had been raised from the dead,
being the first-fruits of them
that are asleep.
For since by a human came death,
by a human came also
the resurrection of the dead.
For as in Adam all die,
so also in The Messiah
all will be made alive.
But each in his own order:
The Messiah the first-fruits;
then they that are The Messiah's,
at His return.

Repentance and restitution

Tree Effort.
Jesus entered Jericho and passed through with a crowd accumulating. Take notice that there was among them a man named Zaccheus, who was a chief tax-collector and quite rich.
Zaccheus sought to see Jesus, to see who He was, but he could not, because of the pressing crowd and he was small in stature. Thus he ran ahead to the front and climbed up into a sycamore tree to see Him from above, since Jesus was to pass through that way. When Jesus arrived at that place, He looked up and saw Zacchaeus and said to him: "Zaccheus! Hurry down, for today I must stay at your house."
So as fast as he could he climbed down and received Jesus joyfully. Seeing this, the crowd all murmured, saying: "Jesus has gone to stay with a sinful man!" Zaccheus stood up and said to the Lord Jesus: "Behold, Lord, I give now half of my goods to the poor; and where I have taken anything from anyone by false accusation, I restore it fourfold." Jesus said to him: "This day salvation has come to this house, because he also is a son of Abraham!" The Son of woman has come to seek and to save those who were lost.
Luk 19:1-10
Jesus saying to someone 'today salvation has come to you', does mean saving of soul for eternal life, but in this case it also means saving this person and his family from reaping what he sowed. Compensation is the only thing I know of, which turns the tide of negative karma away from you.

Naomi and Ruth
They lifted up their voice and wept again. But Ruth clung to her. And she said, see, your sister has turned back to her people, and to her gods. You turn back after your sister . And Ruth said, Do not entreat me to leave you, to turn back from following you. For where you go, I will go. And where you stay, I will stay. Your people will be my people and your God my God. And she saw that she had made herself strong to go with her and she ceased to speak to her.
Ruth 1:14-18
If this was not special love then why would a younger woman go along with an older woman to a foreign place and foreign people away from everything she knows? Choices or decisions for love's sake are often rare, because taking that risk with another human is so big I know she married a man later according to their traditions so that they could stay together, because I don't think they defined their love, or perhaps they did but were to poor to make a new start but today that it is not necessary .
What they did was as much
as they could to be together.
I think that even in our present days, there are many women who love each other and may be married to a man or intend do, because they do not consciously realize they belong together as spouses. Traditional influences make people blind for alternative same gender romances, that are often epic loves, in spite of marriage equality.

All religions provide something of value, what does Jesus provide?
Born again. Deliverance from the serpent genome, get born again
by the seed of Jesus through the
Holy Spirit.
Ask and receive a new genome and be transformed by the Holy Spirit.
Whoever practices sin is of the Devil, for the Devil sins
from the beginning. For this purpose was the Son of God revealed, that He might undo the works of the Devil.
Everyone who has been born of God does not commit sin, because His seed remains in her, and she cannot sin, because she has been born of God. In this the children of God are revealed, and the children of the Devil: everyone not practicing righteousness
is not of God, also who does not love sister or brother.
1 Jo 3:8-10
Something about soul: The soul is separate and able to function independent of the body. Soul strives for noble things and longs for connection with it's Creator.
1 Petr 2:11
Dearly beloved, I beseech you as strangers and pilgrims, abstain from fleshly lusts, which war against the soul; Choosing and self-discipline is the defining thing, thus awakening of souls
are important. Transforming of genome makes a righteous life easier over time.
Regular Body genome: Psa 58:3+4 The evil-doers are strange from the first; from the hour of their birth they go out of the true way, saying false words. Their poison is like the poison of a snake; they are like the adder, whose ears are shut; Isa 59:5 They hatch adders' eggs and weave the spider's web; he who eats their eggs dies, and that which is crushed
breaks out into a viper.
Rev 12:9 The great dragon was cast out, the old serpent called Devil, and Satan, who deceives the whole world. He was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him.
Luk 10:18 He said to them, I saw Satan fall from Heaven like lightning. Gen 3:1 Now the snake was wiser than any beast of the field which the Lord God had made. And he said to the woman, Has God truly said that you may not take of the fruit of any tree in the garden?
Mat 12:34 You offspring of snakes, how are you, being evil, able to say good things? because out of the heart's store come the words of the mouth. Mat 23:33 You snakes, offspring of snakes, how will you be kept from the punishment of hell?
Luk 3:7
So he said to the people who went out to him for baptism: You offspring of snakes, at whose word are you going in flight from the wrath to come?
Rom. 3:13
Their throat is like an open place of death; with their tongues they have said what is not true: the poison of snakes is under their lips:

Do you need a protective father ?
Jesus says:” I am the way, the truth and the life: No-one can perceive and accompany the Father, but through me. (Previously explained) By knowing me, you should perceive and know my Father also: and from now on you know Him, and have seen Him. Philip said to him, Lord, show us the Father and it is sufficient to us. Jesus said to him:” How long have I been with you and yet you have not known me, Philip? Who that have seen me, have seen the Father; thus how say you, show us the Father? Don’t you believe that I am in the Father, and the Father in me? The words that I speak to you, I don’t speak out of myself: but the Father that dwells in me, He does the works. (John 14:6-10) Jesus: “Those who have my commandments and keep them are those who love me: Who loves me will be loved of my Father, and I will love them and will manifest myself to them. …………
I give to you a new commandment , That you love one another as I have loved you. (John 13:34)
................
Jesus answered: “If someone loves me, that one will keep my words: and my Father will love that one, and we will come to that one and make our abode with that one
. ………….
These things have I spoken to you, while being present with you. But the Comforter is the Holy Ghost, Whom the Father will send in my name, The Spirit of Comfort will teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have spoken unto you. Peace I leave with you, my peace I give unto you: Not as the world gives. Let your hearts not be troubled,
neither let it be afraid.
John 14:21-27(reduced)

Transformation into new creature neither male nor female instead both.
It is God who said, "Out of darkness Light will shine;" He shone in our hearts to give the brightness of the knowledge of the glory of God on the countenance of Jesus the Messiah. But we have this treasure in 'earthen vessels' (material bodies), so that the excellence of the power may be of God and not of us; We have been troubled in every way, but not hemmed in; having been perplexed, but not utterly at a loss; having been persecuted, but not forsaken; having been thrown down, but not destroyed; always bearing about in the body, the dying of the Lord Jesus , so that the life of Jesus might also be manifest in our body. For we who live are continuously being delivered to death for Jesus' sake, so that the life of Jesus might also be revealed in our body. So then death works in us, but life in you. For we, having the same spirit of faith (according as written: "I believed and therefore I have spoken"); we also believed and therefore speak, knowing that He who raised up the Lord Jesus will also raise us up by Jesus, and will present us with you. For all things are for your sake, so that the super abounding grace might be made to abound through the thanksgiving of many, to the glory of God. For this cause we do not faint; but though our outward perishes, yet the inward is being renewed day by day. For the lightness of our present affliction works out for us a far more excellent eternal weight of glory, we do not consider the things which are seen, but the things which are not seen; for the things which are seen are not lasting, but the things which are not seen are everlasting. 2Cor. 4:6-18

Friday, December 11, 2015 Reincarnation - as a mission.
Jesus answered them, "Go and tell John the baptist what you hear and observe: the blind see, the lame walk, lepers are cleansed, the deaf hear, the dead are raised, and the destitute hear the good news. How blessed is anyone who is not offended by me!" As they were leaving, Jesus began to speak to the crowds about John. "What did you go out into the wilderness to see? A reed shaken by the wind? Really, what did you go out to see? A man dressed in fancy clothes? See, those who wear fancy clothes live in kings' houses. Really, what did you go out to see? A prophet? Yes, I tell you, and even more than a prophet! This is the man about whom it is written, 'See, I am sending my messenger ahead of you, who will prepare your way before you.' Truly I tell you, among those born of women no one has appeared who is greater than John the Baptist. Yet even the least important person in the kingdom of heaven is greater than he. "From the days of John the Baptist until the present, the kingdom of heaven has been forcefully advancing, and violent people have been attacking it. For the Law and all the Prophets prophesied up to the time of John and if you are willing to accept it, he is Elijah who is to come. Let the person who has ears listen!
Mat 11:4-15
One could say that Elijah reincarnated as John the baptist and will again in the end times of this dispensation before Jesus returns, as a powerful prophet. We do not know nearly everything that is on the other side of death and because of this we cannot claim that all who die reincarnate again. Perhaps some who needed a fair second chance especially in cases of genocide or some who died young. Perhaps only those whom God chooses for a special mission who was prepared for this in a previous lifetime.

The Spiritual Seed.
via GIPHY
Jesus said to them: "You are from below, I am from above. You are of this world, but I am not of this world. That is why I told you that you will eventually die in your sins. For unless you believe that I am, you will die in your sins." Then they said to him: "Who are you?" Jesus told them: "What have I been telling you all along? I have a lot to say about you and even to judge you for, but the One who sent me is true and what I have heard from Him I declare to the world." They didn't realize that he was talking to them about the Father. So Jesus told them, "Once you have lifted up(crucified) the Son as human, then you will know that I am He (Messiah) and that I do nothing on my own authority. Instead, I speak only what the Father has taught me. Moreover, the One who sent me is with me. He has never left me alone because I always do what pleases Him." While he was saying these things, many believed in him. So Jesus said to those Jews who had believed in him: "If you continue in my word, you are really my disciples and you will know the truth and the truth will set you free." They replied to him: "We are Abraham's descendants and have never been slaves to anybody. So how can you say, 'You will be set free'?" Jesus answered them: "Truly, truly I tell you that everyone who commits sin is a slave of sin. The slave does not remain in the household forever, but the child does remain forever. Thus if the Son sets you free, you will be free indeed!" By making you a child of God, breathing His seed into your soul .. When Jesus had said this, he breathed on them and said to them, "Receive the Holy Spirit.
John20:22 Joh 3:6-8 "That which has birth from the flesh is flesh and that which has birth from the Spirit is spirit. Do not be surprised that I say to you, It is necessary for you to have a second birth. The wind goes where its pleasure takes it and the sound of it comes to your ears, but you are unable to say where it comes from and where it goes: so is it with everyone whose birth is from the Spirit". Joh 8:23-36
1Pe 1:22+23 As you have made your souls clean, being ruled by what is true and loving one another without deceit; see that your love is warm without ceasing and earnestly from the heart: Because you have had a new birth, not from the seed of a human, but from eternal seed,
through the word of a living and unchanging God.

The millennium of God.
The Messiah is not slow concerning His promise, as some count slowness, but is long-suffering towards us, with the purpose that none should perish, but that all should come to repentance. However, the day of the Lord will arrive as a thief in the night, in which the sky (stratosphere) will fall with a rushing noise, and the elements will melt with a fervent heat. And the earth and the works in it will be burned up. Then, all these things being about to be dissolved, how much ought you to be in holy behavior and godliness, looking for and speeding up the arrival of the Day of God, on account of which the skies, being on fire, will melt away, and the elements will melt, burning with heat? But according to His promise, we look for new skies(stratosphere) and a new earth in which righteousness dwells.
2Pe 3:9-13

Comforting Creator
Blessed be The Creator, The Father of our Messiah Jesus, the Father of mercies and the God of all comfort, Who comforts us in all our trouble, so that we may be able to comfort those who are in every trouble, through the comfort with which we ourselves are comforted by God.

EXPLANATION
Since I can remember I have been very interested in spiritual matters and have investigated various religions and spiritual powers. Although I found that none of this knowledge or exercising them changed my state of unhappiness or 'unfulfilled-sens'. Since I also studied about Jesus, read the Bible and prayed, I knew enough to believe in Him but did not understand. However, one evening I spend dining with a large group of artists friends in Cape Town. Everybody around the table was philosophizing about the meaning of life at that stage but it started sounding empty to me. so I started saying that I do not really believe in that or that because of that. So someone asked me:"So what do you believe?" I did not know what to say. It was like everyone was staring at me quietly waiting, so eventually I heard myself say to them:"I believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of God and that He died on the cross to forgive us." Needless to say that they were shocked. After a small awkward silence the lady right across me broke the ice by saying:"That is beautiful!" and smiled and everyone started chatting again. Since then I felt different. One evening I was driving with a friend in her car and I was looking out the window up into the black starry sky, then I heard a voice speak to me out of the sky, one sentence, telling me something about myself, which I don't want to reveal. I felt it was God. His voice was solid, strong and definite but very peaceful. Did not scare me at all. later that year I felt very desperate one night and with last hopes I spoke to God, saying:"God I give my life to You if You can do something with it ..." I just lay-ed down curled up on the carpet and felt how God touched my soul and accepted me. Since then, having had this close encounter with Him, He is my life. This was many years ago and He guided me to understand many spiritual things. The spiritual life with God is His Holy Spirit and His angels. There are other angels as well who have lost there office as 'angel' because they were jealous of God and wanted to operate independently, but they do not have the responsibility to be just and fair and as a result cause a lot of havoc with selfish egotistic human controlling powers. The problem is that they draw humans to them and give them powers in exchange for various kinds of sacrifices. Magic and the thrill of getting supernatural power is almost irresistible to humans. The consequence is that even many who where Christians have deserted Jesus for magic. But magic can not forgive humans their tress-passes, lies, deceit and harm they do to each other. All of us have done harm to others and all of us need to confess and ask forgiveness and God the Father of Jesus grants it because His Son paid the penalty. For people to turn their backs on Jesus for magic, means they will live with guilt, a heavy conscience, jealousy and vengeance and using their magic to express it. In the end it is a big hex and vex war fighting to get more power and insecurity is the drive force behind it. By following Jesus away from magic, provides a person with the Holy Spirit which is the power of God but under God's responsible just guidance. Following Jesus also provides a light conscience and the continuous opportunity to ask and receive forgiveness and guidance, which is why I am now writing to you. Following Jesus also provides the security of eternal life with Him, answers to difficult questions and peace inside. Also protection to the measure of just fairness. I wrote this with hope that you will understand why I don't want to get involved in magic of any sort. To me having Jesus is the ultimate privilege, He is everything to me and have saved me from many morbid things like for example sex drive. I am not just celibate I am actually asexual with no need. Living with Jesus is soul fulfilling with love, identity, beauty and new awareness etc.

Sacred same-gender love.
The soul of Jonathan was knit with the soul of David and Jonathan loved him as his own soul. King Saul took David that day and wouldn't let him go home to his father's house. Then Jonathan and David made a covenant, because he loved him as his own soul and Jonathan stripped himself of his robe and gave it to David and his fitted armor, even his sword and his bow, and his girdle. (1Sa 18:1-4) Then King Saul became jealous and David had to flee. (1Sa 20:41-42) David arose out of hiding toward the South and fell on his face to the ground, then bowed himself three times (in respect to Jonathan) : They kissed one another and wept with one another until David exceeded. Next Jonathan said to David: " Go in peace, for as much as we have declared an oath, both of us. in the name of Jehovah, saying, Jehovah will be between me and you and between my seed and your seed for ever." Then David arose and departed and Jonathan went into the city. Last Supper. Joh 13:20-26
Jesus: "Truly, truly, I say to you, those who receive whomever I send, receives Me and one who receives Me receives Him who sent Me!" When Jesus had said this, He was troubled in spirit and said: "Truly, truly, I say to you that one of you will betray Me!" Then the disciples looked at one another, wondering of whom He spoke. But there was John, the one whom Jesus loved leaning on Jesus' bosom. Peter therefore signaled to him to ask whom it might be. Lying on Jesus' chest, John said to him: "Lord, who is it?" Jesus answered: "It is to whom I shall give the morsel when I have dipped it and dipping the morsel, He gave to Judas Iscariot.
At the Cross Joh 19:26&27
When Jesus saw his mother and John whom he loved standing near, he said to his mother: "Woman, behold your son!" Then Jesus said to John: "Behold, your mother!" And from that moment John took her as his own family.
Tomb John 20:2-5
Mary Magdalene ran and found Simon Peter and John whom Jesus loved and told them: "They have taken the Lord out of the tomb, and we don't know where they have laid him. Peter and John therefore ran toward the tomb. They ran together but John outran Peter and arrived at the tomb first. Stooping and looking in, he saw the linen cloths lying there; yet he didn't enter. Resurrected.
Peter also loved Jesus and may have been jealous of John. John 21:20 - 22
Turning around Peter saw John whom Jesus loved, following; the one who also leaned on Jesus chest at supper and asked that night: "Lord, who is he who betrays You?" Seeing John, Peter said to Jesus: "Lord and what about this one? Jesus said to him: "If I wish that he remains until I return, what is that to you? You follow Me!"
Patmos.
Jesus Glorified, visits John where he was exiled to isolation. Revelations 1:12- 15 I, John, turned to see the voice that spoke with me; and I saw seven golden lamp-stands. In the midst of them I saw The Son clothed with a garment down to the feet and tied around the chest with a golden band. His hair was white like wool as white as snow and His eyes like a flame of fire. His feet were like fine brass fired in a furnace and His voice was like the sound of many waters. When I saw Him, I fell at His feet as dead, but He laid His right hand on me, saying to me, Do not fear, I am the First and the Last ...

Fallen short but taken up.
By doing the Law not one will be justified before God, because through the Law we perceive and understand sin. The righteousness of God has been revealed apart from the Law, it is through faith in Jesus Messiah towards all and for all who believe; and there is no discrimination, because all have sinned and fall short ... but are justified freely by God's grace through the redemption in Christ Jesus, through faith in His innocent blood!
Rom 3:20 - 25

Jesus choice of saving lives instead of Lording it over all.
Again, the Devil(Ex-Lucifer) took Jesus up unto a very high mountain and showed Him all the kingdoms of the world and their splendor.
Then Diablo said to Jesus: "I will give You all these things if You will fall down and worship me." Then Jesus said to him: "Go away, Satan! Because it is written, "You will worship the Supreme One your God and Him only will you serve."
(Satan means Accuser, Destroyer, Lord of Darkness/Father of lies)
Then Satan left him and behold, angels came and ministered to Jesus. Jesus went back to Galilee leaving Nazareth. He went and lived in Capernaum, which is on the seacoast. As spoken by Isaiah the prophet: "By way of the sea, the people who sat in darkness saw a great Light and Light has beamed up to those who sat in shadows of death in the region."
From that time Jesus began to preach : "Repent! For the Government of Heaven is at hand. Walking on the beaches of Galilee He found some fishermen and asked them to join Him, which they did. So Jesus went about all of Galilee, teaching in their sanctuaries and preaching the good message of freedom of God's Government and healing the people of all kinds of sickness and all kinds of disease.
Jesus's fame went throughout all of Syria. They brought to Him all those suffering badly with illness and various diseases and torments. Also those who had been possessed with demons and who had been moonstruck and paralytics, Jesus healed them all. A great multitude of people followed Him.

An Appointment in Samaria.
Jesus and His companions left Judea and went away to visit Galilee again. However it was necessary for them to go through Samaria. They arrived at a city of Samaria, called Sychar. It is near the portion of ground that their ancestor Jacob had given to his son Joseph and Jacob's well was there.
Jesus, therefore, being wearied with the journey, sat upon the side of the well. It was around noon and His companions had gone away into the city to buy food. A woman of Samaria came to draw water. Jesus said to her:"Give me to drink!" Then the woman of Samaria said to Him:"How do you, a Jew, ask a drink of me, a Samaritan? Since the Jews do not associate with Samaritans?"
Jesus answered her:"If you knew the gift of God, and who it is saying to you, Give Me to drink, you would have asked for living water and He would have given you living water!" The woman frowned and said to Him:"Sir, you have no vessel and the well is deep. From where then do you have that living water? Are you greater than our father Jacob? He gave us the well and drank of it himself and his children and his cattle?"
Jesus answered her:"Whoever drinks of this water in this well will thirst again, but whoever drinks of the water that I shall give, will never thirst again, but that water that I shall give, will be in them a well of water springing up into everlasting life!"
The woman said to Him:"Sir, give me this water, so that I may not thirst nor have to come here to draw."
*Jesus said to her:"Go, call your husband and come here."
The woman answered:"I have no husband."
Jesus said to her:"You have said well, 'I have no husband', since you have had five husbands and whom you now have is not your husband. In that you spoke honestly."
The woman said to Him:"Sir, I perceive that you are a prophet! Our ancestors worshiped at this mountain and you say that in Jerusalem is the place where we ought to worship?"
Jesus said to her:"Woman, believe Me, the hour is approaching when you will neither worship our Parent in Heaven at this mountain nor even at Jerusalem!
You worship Whom you do not know, we know Whom we worship because salvation is of the Jews." * "Nonetheless the hour is approaching and begins now, when the true worshipers will worship our Parent in spirit and truth, seeing as our Parent seeks such to worship Him. God is a Spirit and they who worship Him must worship in spirit and in truth."
The woman said to Him:"I know that Messiah is imminent, who is called Christ. When He has come, He will tell us all things!" Jesus said to her:"It is me speaking to you! I AM he!"
Upon this His companions appeared and marveled that He was talking with this woman. However, no one said:"What do You seek? or why do you talk with her?"
The woman then left her water-pot and went into the city and said to the people:"Come see a man who told me all the things that I ever did. Is this One not the Christ?" So the people went out of the city to Him.
In the meantime His companions beseech-ed Him, saying:"Master, eat!"
But He said to them:"I have food to eat which you do not know of." Therefore the companions said to one another:"No one has brought Him anything to eat?" Jesus said to them:"My food is to do the will of Who sent Me and to finish His work!
Do you not say, It is yet four months, and it's time to harvest? Behold, I say to you, Lift up your eyes and look over the fields, because they are already white, ready to harvest." "One who reaps attains wages and assembles fruit leading them collectively into eternal life, so that both the one who sows and the one who reaps may rejoice together.
In this is the saying true:"One sows and another reaps. I sent you to reap that on which you bestowed no labor. Others labored and you have entered unto their labor!"
Many Samaritans of that city believed in Him, because of the woman who testified, 'He told me all that I ever did'. Subsequently as the Samaritans had come to Him, they begged Him that He would stay with them. So Jesus stayed there two days. Many more started believing because of His own words. So they said to the woman:"Now we believe, not because of your report, but because we have heard ourselves and know that this is truly the Messiah, the Savior of the world. John 4:3-42
*Jesus firstly points out her need, why she is 'thirsty'. She had five husbands and didn't find love. From the one to the other not one quenched her inner thirst. A thirst for love, identity, appreciation or security.
Jesus implies that even the one she is with now will not quench her thirst either, other-wise he, Jesus would not be there telling her what will! Jesus didn't judge her for her life, he answered her need.
What will quench: What is 'Living water'? It has something to do with worship. Worshiping God in spirit and with honest sincerity. How do you worship God in Spirit? Become still and perceive His guidance or unction and respond to that, operating in the power of His Spirit. This encounter will fulfill you.
Example: Sometimes I start praying and in waiting for an answer I may see a picture of my guitar in my mind, then I respond by fetching my guitar and start playing slowly to let the Spirit of God take lead, leading me into playing 'out of the blue'. Sometimes even loud and fast.
It can be any form of worship, painting, singing, jogging, swimming, diving, nature hiking, rowing, walking on the beach, etc just not in your own ability, but by His power and as a gift to Him.
Quietness is where you learn to be sensitive to His Spirit. In exchange He will give you living water in your soul, quenching your particular thirst. Jesus asked the woman to give him water and explained to her that in exchange he would give her living water. Her thirst was waiting for the Messiah who would explain everything to them. So Jesus went to her and said 'I am he' and explained everything to her.
He knew about her before they arrived. What we give cannot compare to what our Parent in heaven gives, but it opens the channel or connection to receive the living water.

Value of confession
Confess your faults to one another,
and pray for one another, that you may be healed. The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous one avails much. Jam 5:16
Confession relieves a bad conscience, that causes underlying stress which builds up and produces various illnesses. Confession of our faults, especially to whom we have harmed will activate the mercy of God towards you and that person. You will be forgiven and healed by The Holy Spirit.
Admitted it is not easy and quite humiliating. However the relief and recovery as a result lightens that experience even to the point of feeling happiness.
An attitude of superiority is a heavy burden to bear and can weaken a person. The difference it makes to your experience is like diving into quiet, clear water feeling weightless.

Be empowered by grace
in Jesus the Messiah.
Endure hard training to be a beautiful, valuable and skilled soldier of Jesus Messiah. No-one serving as a soldier entangles self with the affairs of regular life, so that the soldier may be agreeable to the enlisting Chief Officer (Jesus).
Also - when anyone competes in a race, she is not crowned unless she competes according to the rules. It is also right for the laboring farmer to receive first share of the fruits. 2 Timothy 2:3-6
-------------------------------
Empowered to freedom.
The Spirit of the Lord Jehovah is on Me (The Messiah: Jesus), because Jehovah has anointed Me to preach the good message to the poor; He has sent Me to bind up the broken-hear-ted, to proclaim liberty to the captives,
(all forms of enslavement, also abusive marriage);
and the opening of the prison to those who are bound (Literally and figuratively, meaning ‘closet gays’ as well)
to proclaim the favorable year of Jehovah and the day of vengeance of our God;
to comfort all who mourn; to appoint to those who mourn in Zion(In worship of Jehovah), to give to them beauty for ashes, the oil of joy for mourning, the mantle of praise for the spirit of heaviness; so that they might be called trees of righteousness, the planting of Jehovah, that He might be glorified.
They will start building in the longtime desolate places, they will raise up the ruins of former times. They will repair the wasted villages the ruins of previous generations. Isa 61:1-4

Sisterhood
Luke 24:7 "Son of man .... Jesus was not the Son of a man, at the most He was the Son of a woman, but it really means the Son as human: the Son of God as human!
People read this 'Son of man' many times in the Bible and do not question it and do not realize it doesn't make sense, it is a brainwashing suggestion twisted into the Bible during translations.
Thus to confuse two things, 1. that Jesus was the conceived Son of God born from a virgin woman and 2ndly that the only human involved in the birth of Jesus was a woman.
Many women today possibly feel even 'hostile' toward Jesus, because of the way church leaders and translators have presented Him. As if God only likes men .. no! It is not Jesus.
If such an obvious translation twist is overlooked and accepted, how many more is there that promote the same things that drive women away and drive LGTQ away and also other races away from Jesus.
The original spiritual scriptures are camouflaged to present day people,
but can still be followed by prayer and concordances and by taking heed of all the times you asked yourself when reading the bible:"Why doesn't this make sense or why does that seem contradictory?"
The Holy Spirit of God will answer all your questions if you pray. The bible is necessary but the Holy Spirit leads us into full truth. John14:26
-----------------------
Sisterhood: A society of women united in one discipline, faith or order: friendship; fellowship; affection.
A little crowd of Women in the life of Jesus Luk. 8:1-3
Jesus visited town after town and village after village, proclaiming His Message and telling the Good News of the Kingdom of God.
His twelve friends were with Him and certain women whom He had delivered from evil spirits and various diseases; Mary of Magdala, out of whom seven demons had gone and Joanna the wife of Chuza, Herod's steward, and Susanna and many other women; all of whom contributed from their belongings to the support of Jesus and His friends.
Jesus Crucifiction: Luk 23:27+28+49
A vast crowd of the people also followed Jesus and the women were beating their chests and wailing for Him. Jesus turned towards them and said: "Daughters of Jerusalem, do not weep for me, but weep for yourselves and for your children.
On the Cross and the Burial.
Luk 23:49
All His acquaintances and the women who accompanied Him traveling from Galilee, followed and watched all these things from a distance. (Mat 27:55+56)
There were, watching from a distance, a number of women who had traveled with Jesus from Galilee to support Him in His needs with their wealth.
Among them being Mary of Magdala, Mary the mother of James and Joses and the mother of the sons of Zabdi.
Joh 19:25
Standing close to the cross of Jesus were His mother and His mother's sister, Mary the wife of Clopas and Mary of Magdala. (4 women) Luk 23:53-56
Taking Jesus body down, they wrapped it in a linen sheet and laid it in a tomb in the rock where no one else had yet been put. It was the Preparation Day and the Sabbath was near at hand.
The women who had traveled
with Jesus from Galilee, followed close behind and saw the tomb and how His body was placed there. Then they departed and prepared spices and perfumes. On the Sabbath they rested in obedience to the Commandment.
However on the first day of the week, very early in the morning, they and others with them, went to the tomb, bringing the spices which they had prepared and they found the stone rolled away from the tomb. The women went inside but did not find the body of the Lord Jesus. They were much perplexed at this as they suddenly saw two men stood by them in dazzling garments. Because the women were frightened, they bowed down their faces to the earth and the angels said to them:"Why are you looking for the living among the dead? He is not here, but is risen. Remember how He spoke to you when He was still in Galilee? Saying: "The Son as human,
must be delivered into the hands of sinful men and be crucified and on the third day rise again".
Thus they remembered His words and departed from the tomb and told all these things to the eleven and to all the rest. It was Mary Magdalene and Joanna and Mary the mother of James and the other women with them who told these things to the apostles.
Luk 24:1-1

After Jonah was swallowed and spat out by a whale.
God the Creator spoke to Jonah the second time, saying: "Arise, go to Nineveh, that great city and preach to it the message that I give you." So Jonah arose and went to Nineveh according to the word of Yahweh. Now Nineveh was an exceedingly great city; when walking, a three days' journey across.
Jonah maneuvered into the city as far as a day's journey. Then he started calling out, saying: "Yet forty days and Nineveh will be overthrown!"
The people of Nineveh paid attention to believe God and among each other they proclaimed a fast and started putting on sackcloth. Even the greatest of them to the least of them were wearing sackcloth.
The news reached the king of Nineveh and he arose from his throne
and took off his royal robe and covered himself with sackcloth and sat down in ashes. King Phul Belochus made a proclamation to be published throughout Nineveh by the decree of the king and his nobles, saying: "Allow neither human nor animal, herd nor flock to taste anything; let them not feed, nor drink water; but let them be covered with sackcloth, both human and animal and let them call with vehemence to God. Yes, let everyone turn from their devious evil ways and from the violence that is in their hands. Who knows whether God will not hold back and take pity and turn away His fierce anger, so that we may not perish?"
God saw their actions that they turned from their devious and violent ways. So God did take pity and did with hold the catastrophe which He announced He would do to them and He didn't do it.
Jon 3:1-10; Jon 4:11
“Should I not spare Nineveh, that great city of Syria in which are more than a hundred and twenty thousand people who cannot discern between their right hand and their left hand and also so many animals?”

The word of God for those who escape.
You will not deliver to his or her master the servant who has escaped from his or her master to you. He or she will live with you, among you, in that place which he or she will choose in one of your gates, where it seems good to him or her.
You will not oppress him or her.
Deu 23:15
Take counsel, do justice; make your shadow as the night in the midst of the noonday; hide the outcasts; do not betray the fugitive.

Isa 16:3 Sunday, April 19, 2015
There is no point of no return.
And all the tax-collectors and sinners drew near to Jesus in order to hear Him. The Church leaders murmured, saying, This man receives sinners and eats with them. Then Jesus spoke this parable to them, saying, Who of you, having a hundred sheep, if you loose one of them, does not leave the ninety-nine in the wilderness and go after that one which is lost until you find it? and when found, carries the sheep on your shoulders, rejoicing and when you arrive home you call together friends and neighbors, saying to them:
"Be glad with me, because I have found my sheep which was lost!"
I say to you that likewise there will be joy in Heaven over one sinner who repents, more than over ninety-nine just persons who need no repentance.
(Repentance: Sorrow over past wrongs, confessing it to Jesus,
receiving forgiveness because He paid the penalty, turning from it and amending where possible.)
Luk. 15

Caleb remained young.
The sons of Judah came to see Joshua in Gilgal and Caleb said to him, "You know the thing that Jehovah said to Moses the man of God regarding you and me; I was forty years old when Moses the servant of Jehovah sent me to spy out the land and I brought him word as it was in my heart.
But my brothers that went up with me made the heart of the people melt with fear; yet I fully followed Jehovah my God.
Moses said on that day, 'Surely the land on which your feet have trodden will be your inheritance, and that of your sons forever, because you have fully followed Jehovah my God'.
Now, take notice, Jehovah has kept me alive these forty-five years as He said, even since Jehovah spoke this word to Moses, while Israel wandered in the wilderness; and now look, I am eighty-five years old today,
yet I am as strong today as I was in the day that Moses sent me. As my strength was then, even so is my strength now, for war, both to go out and to return.
Now give me this mountain of which Jehovah spoke on that day, because you heard in that day how the giants were there, and that the cities were great and fortified. If Jehovah will be with me, then I will be able to drive them out, as Jehovah said.
Then Joshua blessed Caleb and gave Hebron to him for an inheritance and Hebron became the inheritance of Caleb the Kenizzite, to this day, because he fully followed Jehovah, the God of Israel.
The name of Hebron before was
Kirjath-arba;
" That one was a great man among the giants thus the land had rest from war". Jos 14:6-15

Transforming - not back, but forward to a better civilized condition.
Nevertheless, when they turn to the Lord Jesus Christ, the veil will be taken away (in reading of the scriptures).
Now the Lord is that Spirit: and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty. But we all, with open faces (opened perception, reading or hearing the scriptures), beholding as in a reflection the glory of the Lord, are transformed into the same image from glory to glory happening by the Spirit of the Lord.
Therefore, seeing we have this attendance, as we have received mercy (presence of His Spirit), we won't faint (insecurity); But having renounced the hidden things of dishonesty; not walking in craftiness, nor handling the word of God deceitfully; but by expression of the truth, we all introduce & present ourselves to each others conscience with co-perception in the presence of God. 2Co 3: 14-18 / 2Cor 4:1+2

Freedom from fear induced bondage.
Inasmuch then as the children are partakers of flesh and blood,
Jesus Himself likewise took part of flesh and blood; that through death He could destroy him that had the power of death, that is, the devil; and deliver them who through fear of death were all their lifetime subject to bondage and enslavement.
For truly He did not take on Him the nature of angels; but He took on Him the seed of Abraham. Wherefore in all things He put Himself under duty to be made like His sisters and brothers,
that He might be a merciful and faithful high priest in things pertaining to God,
to make reconciliation for the sins
of the people.
For in that He Himself had suffered
being tempted,
He is able to relieve them who are tempted.
(Heb 2:14-18)

Do you want to be gods?
God governs in the great assembly.
He judges among the gods:
"How long will you judge unjustly and show partiality to and uplift the wicked?"
Selah.
"Defend the weak, the poor and the orphans. Maintain the rights of the poor and oppressed.
Rescue the weak and needy.
Deliver them out of the hand of the wicked."
They don't know, neither do they understand.
They walk back and forth in darkness.
All the foundations of the earth are shaken.
I said: "You are gods; all of you are sons of the Most High.
Nevertheless you will die like men and fall together with the rulers.
"Arise, God, judge the earth, for You inherit all of the nations.

Teaching of John the Baptist
"Produce results which indicate the value of your positive change!"
So the people asked John: What shall we do then?
He answered them: Those who have two coats, impart one to someone who has none; and those who have food, share with those who do not have.
Tax collectors also came to be baptized, and asked him:
"Master, what should we do?"
He said them:"Do not collect more than that which is justly prescribed to you."
The police officers likewise demanded
of him: "And what shall we do?"
He said to them: "Do not shake and violate any human,
neither accuse anyone falsely;
and be content with your wages
As the people were in expectation
and all mused in their hearts about John, whether he was the Messiah or not;
John answered: "I indeed baptize you with water;
but One mightier than me will arrive,
the latchet of whose shoes I am not worthy to unloose:
He will baptize you with the Holy Spirit and with fire:

Since He had risen from the dead He called them "Children!"
The students of Jesus were together. Peter said to them, I am going out to fish. They said to him, "we will go with you" so they went out in a boat. That night they caught nothing. When morning broke , Jesus stood there on the shore of the beach, but his students did not know that it was him.
Then Jesus said to them, "Children, do you have anything to eat?"
They answered Him, "No!"
Then He said to them, "Cast the net on the right side of the boat
and you will find".
Therefore they cast the net and from the multitude of fish they didn't have enough strength to draw it in.
Then the student whom Jesus loves said to Peter, "It is the Lord!"
Peter put on his coat and jumped into the sea. The other students in the little boat, dragged the net of fish to shore.
On the land they saw a cozy fire with coals there with a fish and bread
baking on it.
Jesus said to them, "Bring from the fish which you have now caught as well." Peter drew the net to land, full of big fish, a hundred and fifty-three and though there were so many the net was not torn.
Jesus said to them,
"Come have breakfast."
None of them dared ask Him,
"Who are You?"
Knowing that it was the Lord.
Then Jesus took the bread and the little fish and gave it to them.
This was now the third time that Jesus was revealed to His students,
Him being risen from the dead.

Quickened by faith to a new purpose. *
You used to be dead because of your trespasses and offensive sins,
with which you once were occupied according to the ways of this present world society and according to the principal controller of the influences in the atmosphere, the spirit that is now fanatical in the recruits of the antagonists.
Indeed, all of us once behaved like them according to the passions of our human nature, practicing the determinations of our bodies and imaginations.
By nature we were ruthlessly ambitious, just like everyone else.
However, God, who is rich in mercy and compassion,
because of His great love for us even when we were dead because of our offenses, made us alive together with Jesus the Messiah
(by grace you have been saved),
resurrected us from death with Him,
and gave us a position with Him in the heavenly realm, settled in Jesus the Messiah , so that in the coming ages He might display the limitless riches of His grace in sensitive creativity distributed to and through us in Jesus the Messiah.
For by such grace, you have been saved through faith. This does not come from you; it is the gift of God and not the result of achievement, lest anyone boast.
For we are His masterpieces, created in Jesus the Messiah* to produce virtuous deeds which God prepared long ago to be our way of life. *imperishable seed. Ephesians 2 :1 – 10 *Math.23:27
Rescue homeless women Prayer for devastating circumstances.
Jonah prayed to Jehovah his God out of the belly of the whale.
"I cried out to Jehovah from my distress and He answered me"
"Out of the belly of Sheol I cried for help, and You heard my voice. You cast me into the deep, into the heart of the seas,
and the current surrounded me;
all Your breakers and Your waves passed over me, and I said, I am cast off from Your eyes; yet I will again look to Your holy temple.
Waters encompassed me, even to my soul; the depths closed around me; seaweed clinging to my head. I sank down to the bases of the mountains;
the earth with her bars was about me perpetually.
But You brought up my life from the pit, O Jehovah my God.
When my soul fainted within me,
I remembered Jehovah;
and my prayer came to You,
to Your holy temple.
Those who observe vanities of idolatry forsake their faithfulness;
but I will sacrifice to You with the voice of thanksgiving;
I will make amends according to which I have vowed.
Salvation is given by Jehovah!"
Then Jehovah spoke to the whale,
and it vomited Jonah out onto the dry land.
Jonah 2:1-10

Why some sins
seem impossible to stop doing.
Sin deceived me, seizing the opportunity provided by the commandment and used it to killing me. So then, the law itself is holy and the commandment is holy, just and good.
But now!
Did something good bring me to death? Of course not!
But in order that sin may be recognized as sin, it used something good by which to cause my dying,
so that through the authority of the commandment,
sin might be proven exceedingly sinful.
For we know that the law is spiritual,
but I am mere flesh,
sold as a slave to sin.
I don't understand what I am doing, because I don't do what I want to do,
but instead I do what I hate doing.
Now, if I do what I don't want to do, then I agree that the law is good.
Actually I am no longer the one who is doing it, but it is the sin that dwells in me. Now I know that nothing good dwells in me, that is, in my body.
Because I have the desire to do what is right, but I cannot carry it out.
For I don't do the good I want to do, but instead I do the destructive decadence I don't want to do.
But if I do what I don't want to do, I am no longer the one who is doing it,
but it is the sin that dwells in me.
So, I find this also to be a law:
When I want to do what is good, devaluation decadence is right there present with me.
For I delight in the law of God in my inner being, but I see in my body a different law waging war with the law in my mind and making me a prisoner of the law of sin that exists in my body.
What a wretched person I am!
Who will rescue me from this deadly body? Thank God, through the passage of Jesus Christ our Lord!
(Process of being mortified by the Holy Spirit in identifying with the suffering , death and resurrection of Jesus)
So then with my mind, I myself am bound to obey the law of God, but is in conflict with my body by which I am in bondage to the law of sin.
Therefore there is now no condemnation for those who are in union with Jesus Christ. For the law of the Spirit of life in Jesus Christ has set me free from the law of sin and death.
For God did what the law was powerless to do in that it was weakened by the body; by sending His own Son in the likeness of the sinful body, properly and completely judged and executed sin.
Jesus condemned sin in the body so that the righteous requirement of the law might be fulfilled concerning us who are not occupied with following the body but occupied with following the Spirit.
For those who are occupied with following the body exercise their minds on the things of the body, but those who are occupied with following the Spirit exercise their minds
on the things of the Spirit.
To exercise our minds for the purpose of the body leads to death,
but to exercise our minds for the purpose of the Spirit, leads to life and peace.
(This works through prayer by the power of the Holy Spirit.)

A universal birth approaching.
Indeed, with intense anticipation Creation expects the manifestation of the descendants of the Supreme Divine God. Not male nor female, both.
Because Creation was subjected to emptiness, not willingly, but because of Him who subjected it for the sake of confident great expectations; that Creation itself also will be delivered, being rescued from the bondage of perishing and corruption by being incorporated into the glorious Dignifying freedom of the children born of God.
We know that the whole creation groans together and with mutual empathy, collectively travails in pain until now. Rom 8:19 - 22

The return of the Messiah, Jesus.
Having gone forth, Jesus departed from the temple, and his students approached Him to show Him the buildings of the temple, and Jesus said to them, `Do you not comprehend all these?
Truly I tell you, there may not be left here a stone upon a stone, that will not be thrown down.'
Afterwards when He was sitting on the Mount of Olives, the students approached Him while He was by Himself, saying: `Tell us, when will this happen? and what are the signs of your appearance, and of the full end
of the ages?'
So Jesus answered them:`Take heed that no one may lead you astray,
because many will come in my name, saying:"I am the Christ"
and they will lead many astray,
and you will hear of wars,
and reports of wars;
but take heed to not be troubled,
because all these will happen, but it is not yet the end.
`Nation will rise against nation and kingdom against kingdom,
there will be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes in divers places.
All these are the beginning of sorrows; then they will deliver you up to tribulation, and will kill you, and you will be hated by all the nations because of My Name; and then many will stumble and they will deliver up one another and will hate one another.
Many false prophets will arise and lead many astray; and because of the abundance of lawlessness,
the love of many will become cold;
but those who endure to the end will be saved; and this good news of the Divine Kingdom will be proclaimed through out the world as a testimony to all the nations; and then the end will arrive.
`Whenever, therefore, you may see the abomination that lays waste, that was spoken of through Daniel the prophet, standing in the holy place (whoever is reading let him observe) then those in Judea should flee to the mountains; one on a house-top should not go down to take up any thing out of the house;
and those in the field should not turn back to fetch garments.
'Woe to those with children,
and to those who have babies
in those days;
Pray that your flight may not be in winter nor on a Sabbath;
because then will there be great tribulation, such as was not from the beginning of the world until now,
no, nor may be.
If those days were not shortened, no flesh would have been saved;
but because of the chosen* those days will be shortened.
`Then if any one may say to you, Look, here is the Christ! or there! you should not believe them; because there will arise false Christs, and false prophets, and they will produce great signs and wonders, to lead astray, if possible, also the chosen*.
Look, I did tell you beforehand.
`If therefore they may say to you, Look, He is in the wilderness, you may not go forth; or look He is in the inner chambers, you may not believe that; Because as the lightning comes forth from the east, and appears unto the west, so will also be the appearance of the Son as Human; because wherever the carcass may be, there will the eagles be gathered together.
`Immediately after the tribulation of those days, the sun will be darkened,
and the moon will not give her light,
and the meteors will fall from the heaven, and the powers of the heavens will be shaken;
and then will the sign of the Son as Human appear in the heaven;
and then will all the tribes of the earth smite their chest,
and they will see the Son as Human return upon the clouds of heaven with power and much glory;
and he will send his angels with a great sound of a trumpet, and they will gather together His chosen* from the four winds, from the ends of the heavens unto the other ends thereof.
'You learn from the fig-tree this simile: When its branches have become tender, and the leaves appear, you know that summer is near, so also when you see all these things, you will know that the return is near, at the door.
Truly I tell you this generation
(this specie/genome)
may not pass away until all these things have happened. The heaven and the earth will pass away, but My words will not pass away.
Concerning that day and the hour:
no one knows that, not even the angels of the heavens, except only My Father; and as it was in the days of Noah, so will it also be with the appearance of the Son as Human; for as they were in the days before the flood: eating and drinking; marrying, and giving in marriage,
until the day Noah entered into the ark, and they did not expect anything until the flood came and took all away;
so will it also be with the appearance of the Son as Human.
Two men will be in the field, one will be received and one left; two women will be grinding in the mill, one will be received, and one left. `Watch you therefore, because you do not know in what hour your Lord will return; and know this, that if the master of the house had known in what watch the thief would arrive, he would have watched, and not suffered his house to be broken into; because of this you should also become ready, because in the hour that you do not expect, the Son as Human will appear.
Who then is the servant who is faithful and wise, whom his lord set over his household, to give them nourishment in season? *Happy is that servant whom his lord, having returned, will find doing so; Truly I tell you that He will set such over all His substance.
`But if that harmful servant may say in his heart: "my Lord delays to return", and may begin to beat the fellow-servants, and eat and drink with the drunken, the lord of that servant will arrive in a day when he does not expect it and in an hour of which he does not know, and will cut him off and his portion is appointed with the hypocrites; there will be the weeping and the gnashing of the teeth.

Greek 'Arsenokoites' in 1Co 6:9;
Does not mean 'homosexual'. 1Co 6:9
Do you not know that the unjust will not inherit the kingdom of God?
('Inheritance' applies to descendants[children])
Do not be deceived; no sex-workers or sex en-slavers nor idol worshipers who worship and obey creatures
( Incl. . . these days, particularly persons or 'self'),
nor any who cheat their spouse in a sexual affair, nor coward wimps betraying those who trust them, nor anal-sex*maniacs with women or men.
*A form of intimidation-control rape. (http://www.gaychristian101.com/Define-Arsenokoites.html)
but 1Co 15:50 and I say this, friends, that flesh and blood cannot inherit
the Kingdom of God,
(Why? Because the seed of God is spirit, His descendants are spirit,
His children are spirit.)
Meaning that Cor.6:9 above,
describes the worst ways of flesh
and blood.
Nor does corruption inherit in-corruption. For this corruptible must invest in in-corruption*, and this mortal must invest in immortality.
*In-corruption: 'genitive'
(One 'noun' modifying another)
(New genome modifying old genome), Unending existence, immortality. Figuratively: genuineness and sincerity. 'Deviousness', which is lying and tricking people in order to get what is wanted: Scheming and plotting against ignorant persons or someone
who thinks you're a friend.
Deviousness as the opposite of sincerity and genuineness, is parallel to corruption and decay toward disintegration.
I.O.W. do not invest there!

Jesus took the blame, guilty or not.
Jesus took all the sins and offenses of lesbians* on Himself, giving His body to be nailed to timber, so that lesbians* now, renounced from sin and generated away from sin,
may have a new life in justification,
and by His wounds lesbians* are healed.
1Peter 2:24
*(add gay, trans, all queers
and heteros of all races too)
~~~~~~~~~
What 'sins' do we get generated from? Basically, breaking of any of the 10 commandments. I do not see one against same-gender love couples.
Love is never a sin, but, breaking her heart through adultery, yes, but, get it,

Courage to take a stand for the helpless.
Jesus, though being a Son,
yet He learned the courage of obedience to God by the things which He suffered, and being perfected,
He became the author of eternal salvation to all those who obey Him.
Heb 5:8+9

Descendants of God.
Take notice of the kind of love God the Father has given us, that we should be called by the surname: "offspring of God".
Because of this the world does not recognize us,
because it did not recognize Him. Beloved, now we are descendants of God, and it is not yet apparent exactly what we will be like.
But we know that when Jesus appears again, we will become like Him,
because we will observe Him like He is.
Everyone who has this expectation on Him purifies self, even as that One is pure. Everyone who commits offences also practices lawlessness, because committing offenses is lawlessness.
You know that He was manifested as a human to take away our offenses, and in Him is no offense. Whoever takes and keeps position in Him does not commit offenses.
Whoever commits offenses does not observe Him nor recognizes Him. Little children, let no one deceive you. Those who do justice is just, even as that One is just.
Those who commit offenses receive it from the Devil, because the Devil commits offenses since the beginning.
For this purpose the Son of God was manifested, that He might undo, loosen and destroy the unjust works of the Devil. Whoever has been born of God does not commit injustice, because His seed remains in them, and they cannot commit injustice, because they have been born of God. In this the children of God are revealed, and the children of the Devil: Whoever does not practice justice is not of God, also whoever does not love a fellow descendant of God. This is the message that you have heard from the beginning, that we should love one another; not as Cain who was malicious, and killed his brother, and for what did he kill him?
Because his own works were selfish and his brother's were just and fair.
Do not marvel, fellow children of God,
if the world rejects you.
How do we know that we have passed from death to life?
When we love the fellow descendants of God.
Whoever does not love the offspring of God abides in death.
Whoever hates a fellow child of God is a murderer and you know that a murderer does not have immortal life abiding within.
By this we have known the love of God, because He laid down His life for us and we ought to prostrate our lives for the fellow descendants of God.
Beloved, if our heart does not accuse us, we have confidence toward God and whatever we ask, we receive from Him, because we keep His commandments and do what is pleasing in His sight.
This is His commandment, that we should believe on the authority of the name of His Son Jesus Christ and love one another, as He gave us command.
Whoever keeps His commandment keeps position in Him and He in them
(similar to a soft electric charge)
By this we know that He remains in us,
by the Spirit which He gave to us.
1 John 3:1-16 & 21-24
Balance. I bear them witness that they have a zeal for God,
but not according to knowledge.
Being ignorant of God's justice* and seeking to establish their own,
they did not subject themselves to the justice of God.
*(righteousness) Jesus Christ is the sum end of the law with the intend of justice to every one who believes. Rom 10:2-4

Jesus Christ raises from the dead,
the 12-year-old daughter of Jairus.
One of the church leaders, Jairus,
went to Jesus.
When he saw Jesus, he fell at His feet and begged Him intensely: "My little daughter lies at the point of death. Please come lay Your hands on her, so that she may be healed, and she will live".
So Jesus went with him. On the way there, messengers approached from the church leader's house, saying:"Your daughter has died; you don't need to trouble the Teacher anymore".
But hearing them, Jesus said to Jairus: "Don't be afraid only believe".
Jesus allowed no one else go with him except Peter and James and John,
his three closest friends.
When they arrived at the house they saw the trauma, and sobbing and much wailing. Going in, Jesus said to them,
why do you weep? The girl has not been dead for long, but sleeps.
(Meaning she did not cease to exist). Baffled, they scorn laughed at Him,
but He put them all outside.
Then He took the father and the mother of the child,
and his friends with Him and went in there where the child was lying.
He took the child's hand and said to her: "Talitha koumi" , which interpreted is, "Little girl, I say to you, Arise!"
Instantly the little girl arose and walked, because she was twelve years old.
They were astoundingly astonished.
Jesus strictly warned them that no one should know about this and told them to give her something to eat.
Mark 5:35 - 43

The great birth of the new generation, the seed of Jesus.
Just like we believe that Jesus died and rose again, so also believe that God will bring with him those who have passed away in Jesus.
This we tell you by the word of the Lord, that those who live at the return of the Lord, will in no way precede those who have passed away.
The Messiah Jesus will descend from heaven with a shout of the voice of the archangel, and with God's trumpet sounding. The dead belonging to Jesus Christ will rise first, then those regenerated of him, who are alive then, will be caught up, altogether in the clouds, to meet the Messiah in the air.
So will we be with the Lord forever.
This is a great comfort.
1Th 4:14-18
In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trumpet. The trumpet will sound and the dead will be raised incorruptible, and those alive will be transformed.
This corruptible body must put on in-corruption and this mortal body must put on immortality. But when this corruptible has put on in-corruption and this mortal has put on immortality, then what is written will happen: "Death swallowed down(imbibed) successfully." 1Co 15:52-54
The tomb has become a womb.

Sabbath or Sunday?
Someone esteems one day above another day; and another esteems every day alike. Let each one be totally persuaded in their own mind, that someone who regards a day, regards it for the Lord; and someone who does not regard the day, does not regard it, for the Lord.
Rom 14:5+6
"You observe days and months and times and years." Gal 4:10
But now knowing God, or rather being known by God, how can you turn again to feeble and poor doctrines to which you again incline to be enslaved to, anew? Gal 4:9
So then, let no one judge you in food or in drink, or in respect of a feast, or of the new moon, or of the Sabbaths, because these are all a shadow of future things, besides this, the body is of Christ. Col 2:16 +17 Like Jesus said: I am like the Vine and you are like the branches. you who grow in Me and I in you, you will produce much fruit; but without Me you can do nothing.

The prayer of faith will save who are sick, the Lord Jesus will raise such up; and if that one has committed offences, that will be forgiven. How?: Acknowledge your offences and faults to one another, and pray for one another, so that you may be healed. The effectual fervent prayer of a just person has much power. Jam 5:15 - 16 Posted by Timothy Nootau at 3:42 AM No comments: Email ThisBlogThis!Share to TwitterShare to FacebookShare to Pinterest Monday, October 7, 2013 From the beloved student of Jesus, John. That which was from the beginning, which we have heard, which we have seen with our eyes, which we have gazed at, and our hands have held, The Word of life; (Because this Life was manifested, and we have seen it, and bear witness, and now show to you that eternal life, which was with the Father, and was manifested to us (in human form: Jesus) ) We declare to you, that which we have seen and heard , that you may also have this fellowship: and honestly, our fellowship is with God the Father, and with His Son, Jesus Messiah. And we write these things to you, so that you may have complete happiness. Here is then the message which we have heard of Him: that God is light, and in Him is no darkness at all. If we say that we have fellowship with Him, and operate in darkness, we lie, and do not operate in truth: But if we operate in the light, as He is in the light, we have authentic fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus Messiah, His Son disinfects us from all self-worshipping control-motives, deceitful games and unjust cruelty. If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us. If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all injustices. If we say that we have not sinned, we make Him a liar, and His message is not in us. 1 John 1: 1-10 Posted by Timothy Nootau at 4:46 AM No comments: Email ThisBlogThis!Share to TwitterShare to FacebookShare to Pinterest Sunday, September 22, 2013 Exchange carnal for spiritual. There is therefore now NO condemnation to them who are in the Sovereign Ruler-ship of Jesus, who do not live by the desires of the body, but by the Spirit. Because the law of the Spirit of life in the Sovereign Ruler-ship of Jesus has made us free from the law of sin and resulting death. Because what the law could not do, in that it was weak through the carnal body, God sent his own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh, and because of sin, condemned sin in the flesh: So that the justice of the law may be fulfilled in us, who do not live by the dictation of the body, but by the inspiration of the Spirit. They who are carnal do mind the dictations of the flesh; but they who live by the Spirit, mind the inspiration of the Spirit. Okay, to be carnally minded causes states of dying and death; but to be spiritually minded causes life and peace.

As it is written: There is no one righteous, no not one; there is no one who understands, there is no one who is looking for God. They have all gone out of the way, together become unprofitable, there is no one who does good,no, not one. Their throat is an open grave, with their tongues they have used deceit the poison of asps is under their lips; whose mouth is full of cursing and bitterness; their feet are swift to shed blood; destruction and misery are in their way, and the way of peace they did not know. There is no fear of God before their eyes. But we know that whatever things the Law says, it says to those who are under the Law; so that every mouth may be stopped and all the world may be under judgment before God, because by the works of the Law no one of all flesh will be justified in His sight; because through the Law is the knowledge of sin. But now the justice of God has been revealed apart from Law, being witnessed by the Law and the Prophets; This justice of God is through the faith in Jesus Christ, toward all and upon all those who believe. For there is no difference.

Look up and see who created these, who brings out their host of angels by number and calls them all by name; by the greatness of my might, and because I am strong in power, not one is lacking. Why do you say, your way is hidden from The Creator, and the justice due to you is gone away from your God? Have you not known? have you not heard? The everlasting God, Yahweh, the Creator of the ends of the earth, doesn't tire, neither is weary; there is no calculation of his brilliance. He gives strength to the exhausted; and to them who have no might he increases strength. Even the youths will faint and be weary, and the young people will waver and falter: but those who wait with patient expectation for God, will renew their strength; they will mount up with wings as eagles; they will run and not be weary; they will walk, and not faint.

You shall not profanely violate your daughter, to cause her to be an adulterer and whore, lest the land go adulterous and whoring, and the land become full of purposed wickedness. Leviticus 19:29 But if a man finds an engaged woman in the field, and the man forces her and rapes her, then only the man that raped her must die. But you will do nothing to the woman. No sin worthy of death is in the woman; for as when a man rises against his neighbor and slays him, even so is this matter, it's like murder. For he found her in the field, the engaged girl cried out, but there was none to save her. Deutoronomy 22:25 A woman has to scream! If a woman who is a virgin, is engaged to somebody, and a man finds her in the city and ravishes her, then you will bring them both out to the gate of that city, and you will stone them with stones that they die; the girl because she did not cry out in the city, and the man, because he has disgraced somebody's wife. So will you put away evil from among you. Deutoronomy 22:23+24 PS: There are situations where a woman's mouth gets slammed shut.

Philosophers from the Epicureans and from the Stoics met Paul. Some said: "What will this babbler say? Others said: "He seems to be an announcer of foreign gods." (because he preached Jesus and the resurrection to them). Taking hold of Paul, they led him to the Areopagus, saying: "Are we able to know what this new doctrine is of which you speak? You bring certain strange ideas to our ears, therefore we are minded to know what these things mean." (For all the Athenians and tourists who were there, spent their time in nothing else except to tell or to hear something newer.) And standing in the middle of the Areopagus, the hill of Mars, Paul said: "People, Athenians, I see that you have reverence of gods in everything. As I passed by and saw all the beings that you worship, I also found an altar with this inscription: TO THE UNKNOWN GOD. Not knowing then whom you worship here, it is Him Whom I make known to you." "This is the Creator Who made the world and all things in it, since He is Lord of Heaven and earth, He does not dwell in temples made with human hands, nor is He served with human hands as though He needed anything, since it is He Who gives life and breath and all things to all. And He has made all the nations of people of one blood to dwell on all the surface of the earth, ordaining fore-appointed seasons and boundaries of their dwellings, so to seek the Lord, if perhaps they might verify Him through contact and find Him, though indeed He is not far from each one of us. Because in Him we live and move and have our being, as also certain of your own poets have said, because we are also His offspring. Then being offspring of God, we ought not to think that God, the Divine Father is like the images of gold or silver or stone, engraved by art and human imagination." "Truly, then, God overlooking the times of ignorance, He now transmits message to all people everywhere to repent, because He has appointed a day in which He is going to judge the world in fairness and truth by a Man whom He had appointed, having given proof to all by raising Him from the dead!" Hearing of a resurrection of the dead, some indeed mocked; and others said: "We will hear you again concerning this!" And so Paul departed from among them. But certain people inseparably attached themselves to him and believed; among whom were Dionysus the Areopagite, and a woman named Damaris, and some others with them.

Rom 10:17 Posted by Timothy Nootau at 4:05 PM No comments: Email ThisBlogThis!Share to TwitterShare to FacebookShare to Pinterest Sunday, August 4, 2013 Seed of resurrection. The difference between an unfertilized egg and a fertilized egg. Both look like an egg until the seed in the fertilized egg starts to grow. The seed consumes the egg as it grows and develops into a complete little chicken(little angel being). Comparing it to mortal human being as the egg-white and yoke and the immortal celestial human being(seed of resurrection), the little chicken growing from seed to a whole living being, very different than the egg . . An egg is given birth too, a chicken is hatched. -- "Not every kind of flesh is the same kind of flesh, human flesh differs from animal flesh, like the flesh of animals differ from the flesh of birds and all flesh differ from the flesh of fish. There are celestial bodies, and terrestrial bodies, but the appearance of the celestial is truly different than that of the terrestrial. So also the resurrection of the dead. The seed of resurrection is sown in corruption(mortality), but is raised in in-corruption(immortality). It is sown in dishonor(shame), but raised in honor(dignity). It is sown in weakness, but raised in power. It is sown a natural body, but raised a spiritualized(supernatural) body; there is a natural body, and there is a spiritualized(supernatural) body. It has also been written, "The" first "human", Adam(red earth), "became a living soul; "the last Adam(red earth) a life-giving Spirit." First the natural; afterwards the spiritual. The first human out of earth, earthy. The second human, Lord out of Heaven. As the earthy so are the earthy ones. As the heavenly One, so are the heavenly ones. And as we bore the image of the earthy, we shall also bear the image of the heavenly. Flesh and blood is not able to inherit the kingdom of God, nor does corruption inherit in-corruption. In a moment, in a glance of an eye, at the last trumpet(when Jesus returns); for a trumpet will sound, and the dead will be raised incorruptible, and we shall all be changed. This corruptible must put on in-corruption, and this mortal must put on immortality." How? Romans 10:9 If you confess with your mouth Jesus as Lord, and believe(sincerely) in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved(be whole). 1Cor 15:39-58 condensed.(Best to read the full chapter) Posted by Timothy Nootau at 2:01 PM No comments: Email ThisBlogThis!Share to TwitterShare to FacebookShare to Pinterest Thursday, August 1, 2013 Authenticness. The unfulfillable heart. Some people can achieve allot and receive nice things and friends and romance and holidays, but nothing can satisfy them. They can't find fulfilment and they don't understand why. Even turning to and sacrificing a lot to help needy people, doesn't satisfy that quest for fulfilment. What makes the heart run empty every time? What causes the crack in the bottom of the heart? Motivation arrive from 2 basic inspirations: 1. Honor and 2. Conviction When the abstract motive behind achievement is to receive recognition and honor from people then there is a huge risk to receive inward damage. Now get this right, it is not wrong to receive honor and recognition for achievement, it is right and should be done, but unfortunately it is not trust able, people are fickle and jealous and compete for honor and recognition to the extend of cruel battles which results in personal inward damage to individuals. What can heal the crack and make the heart fulfill able? When the motive for your achievement becomes conviction. Because when calamity or battles hit and all honor and recognition disappears, conviction remains. Conviction is something that happens in your heart. Some people find it more difficult than others to get in touch with the authentic message in their heart, it really takes regular quiet time alone to hear the voice of the Holy Spirit. Jesus Quote: "Not everyone in churches who call me, Lord! Lord! will enter the kingdom of Heaven, but they who do the will of my Father in Heaven. Many religious people will say to me in that day, Lord! Lord! Did we not prophesy in Your name, and through Your name expel demons, and through Your name do many wonderful works? And then I will say to them:" I have never experienced awareness and understanding between me and you! How can you expect reward from me, when you wouldn't co-operate with me! Whoever pays attention to understand these sayings of mine, and does them, I will compare them to a wise person who built a house on a rock. And the rain poured down, and the floods came, and the winds blew and beat on that house. And it did not fall, because it was founded on a rock. And everyone who hears these sayings of mine and does not do them will be compared to a heedless person who built a house on the sand. And the rain came down, and the floods came, and the wind blew and beat on that house. And it fell crashing down. Matthew 7:21-27 The person who achieves because of being convinced that her mission is appointed by the Creator as a part of the big picture of his Creation. does not need human recognition to complete the project, only to work in co-operation with the Spirit of God, which in itself is a fulfilling experience. Relax Jesus:"Come to me, all of you who labor and are heavily overburdened, and I will cause you to relax. I will ease and relieve and refresh your souls. Take my beam and yoke up alongside of me and learn by co-operating with me, because I am gentle, meek and humble in heart, and you will find quietness and rest for your souls. Because being yoked up with me is a breeze and my mission is light and easy to share."

Not as though completely attained, or were already perfect: but to persue that, and to eagerly take that for which to also be eagerly taken by Christ Jesus. Sisters, to not count self as having attained: but to do this one thing: forgetting those things which are behind, and streching forward to those things which are ahead . . . our conversation is in heaven; where we also look for the Saviour, the Lord Jesus Messiah: Who will change our humble bodies, that it may be fashioned to the same as His glorified immortal body, according to the active power by which He is able to subdue all things to Himself.

Now the justice of God has been made apparent, apart from the law, although the Law and the Prophets bear witness to it-- The justification by God is through faith in Jesus Christ, for all who believe. There is no distinction: because all have sinned and all fall short of the glorious dignity, nobleness and honorableness of God, but . . are justified by His grace . . as a gift, through the redemption that is in Messiah Jesus, received by faith. This was to show God's fairness, because in His divine tolerance He had passed over former sins. It was to show His fairness at the present time, so that He might be just and the Justifier of the one who has faith in Jesus. Then what becomes of our boasting? It is excluded. By what kind of law? By practicing legal regulations? No, but by the law of faith. We conclude that someone is justified by faith apart from practicing doctrines of the law.

If any among you are accounted to be wise in this world, then become astonished, so that you may become wise. For the wisdom of this world is foolishness with God. For it is written: "He surprises the wise in their own craftiness". And again: "The Lord is aware of the reasoning of the world-wise, that it is in vain." So, let no-one boast in a human. All things are there for you; Whether a spiritual leader, or a guardian, or a philanthropist, or the society, or life, or death, or present things, or future things; all are yours; and you are Jesus Christ's; and Jesus Christ is God's. 1 Corinthians 3:16-23 Posted by Timothy Nootau at 10:33 AM No comments: Email ThisBlogThis!Share to TwitterShare to FacebookShare to Pinterest Sunday, April 28, 2013 Living Water.

Even if someone get prophecies, and understand all mysteries and all science; and even if a person has total faith, to move mountains, and does not have love, that person is nothing. Even if a person gives away all their belongings to feed others, but does not have love, it is of no advantage. and even if someone delivers own body to be burned, and does not have love, it is of no benefit. Love endures with patience, love is kind and benevolent. Love does not burn with envy, Love does not boast, Love is not haughty and puffed up. love does not behave indecently, love does not effort for self, love is not easily exasperated, love considers no corruption. Love does not salute injustice, but love congratulates the truth. Love covers all, believes all, hopes all, and endures all. Love never fails. Prophecies will cease; languages will cease; science will cease.

Eventually he said within himself: " Though I am not frightened of God, nor influenced by any human, yet, because this widow keeps on approaching me, sharply, I will avenge her so that she will not eventually gaze me down ". So the Lord said:"Listen to what this unjust judge said. So, will God not avenge those, who choose Him continually, crying to Him night and day, though He has been timing them for long?

Jehovah surrendered them into the hand of Jabin, king of Canaan. The captain of his army was Sisera. The people of Israel cried to Jehovah, because Jabin had nine hundred tanks of iron, and he mightily oppressed the people of Israel for twenty years. Deborah, a prophetess, the wife of Lapidoth, judged Israel at that time. She lived under the palm tree of Deborah, between Ramah and Bethel in mount Ephraim. The people of Israel came up to her for justice judgement. Deborah sent someone to call for Barak in Naphtali, and said to him: "Has not Jehovah, the God of Israel commanded, saying, Go and draw toward mount Tabor, and take with you ten thousand soldiers of the sons of Naphtali and of the sons of Zebulun? and I will draw Sisera, the captain of Jabin's army, to you, at the river Kishon, together with his tanks and his multitude, and I will deliver him into your hands." Barak said to Deborah: "If you will go with me, then I will go, but if you will not go with me, I will not go." Deborah said: " I will surely go with you, but the journey that you take, will not be for your honor, because Jehovah will surrender Sisera into the hand of a woman." So Deborah arose, and went with Barak to Kedesh. Barak called Zebulun and Naphtali to Kedesh, and he went up with ten thousand soldiers at his feet. And Deborah went up with him. And Heber, the Kenite, had separated himself from the Kenites and pitched his tent toward the plain of Zaanaim, near Kedesh, and they told Sisera, that Barak had gone up to Mount Tabor. So Sisera gathered all his tanks, nine hundred tanks of iron, and all the people with him, from foreign nations, to the river of Kishon. And Deborah said to Barak: "Up! For this is the day in which Jehovah has delivered Sisera into your hand. Has not Jehovah gone out before you?" So Barak went down from Mount Tabor, and ten thousand soldiers after him. And Jehovah struck Sisera, and all the tanks, and all the army, with weapons in front of Barak, so that Sisera got down from his tank and fled on his feet, but Barak pursued the tanks and went after the army, And all the army of Sisera fell by weapons. There was not one man left. On that day God subdued Jabin, the king of Canaan, before the soldiers of Israel. And strength of the soldiers of Israel went on, and pressed hard against Jabin, the king of Canaan, until they had destroyed him.

Jesus spoke this parable about those who trusted that they were righteous by themselves, and despised others: "Two people went into the temple to pray; the one a church official, and the other a tax-collector. The church official stood and prayed within himself in this way: "God, I thank You that I am not as other people, extortioners, unjust, adulterers, or even like this tax-collector. I fast twice per week and I give 10% of all that I possess." And standing at a distance, this tax-collector would not even lift eyes up to Heaven, but struck on chest, saying: " God be merciful to me a sinner!" I tell you, this person went home justified rather than the church official, because everyone who elevates self will be abased, and one who humbles self will be elevated. Luke 18 :9 Posted by Timothy Nootau at 8:53 AM No comments: Email ThisBlogThis!Share to TwitterShare to FacebookShare to Pinterest Sunday, January 13, 2013 Eve is forgiven Eve's crime: Genesis 3 Cunning serpent: "Is it so that God has said, do not eat of every tree of the garden?" Woman: We may eat of the fruit of the trees of the garden. But of the fruit of the tree which is in the middle of the garden, God said, 'do not eat of it, neither touch it, or you die.' Serpent:" You will surely not die, God knows if you eat of it, your eyes will be opened, and you will be like God, knowing good and evil.' The woman saw that the tree was good for food, and that it was beautiful, and desired to be made wise, so she took of its fruit, and ate. She also gave to her husband with her, and he ate. (Eve could have gained good wisdom through communication with God.) Eve's sentence: Gen.3:16 To the woman He said, I will greatly increase your sorrow and of your conception(a disappointment when a girl is born, especially 1st). In pain will you bear children, and your longing will be toward your husband, and he will rule over you. Jesus intervenes Serpent's sentence (prophetic part): 15 . . And I will place hostility between you and the woman, and between your seed and her Seed; (Jesus is the "son of woman", rather than 'the Son of man', no man had anything to do with the conception and birth of Jesus the Messiah. He will crush your head, and you will crush His heel. (Nails were driven through Jesus' heels on the cross.) Jesus was exposed to a similar situation, tempted by the serpent. (Matthew 4:1-11) Jesus was led by the Spirit up into the wilderness, to be tempted by the Devil. And when He had fasted forty days and forty nights, He was afterwards hungry. And when the tempter came to Him, he said, If You are the Son of God, command that these stones be made bread. But He answered and said, It is written, "A human will not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceeds out of the mouth of God." Then the Devil took Him up into the holy city and set Him upon a pinnacle of the Temple. And he said to Him, If you are the Son of God, cast yourself down. For it is written, "He will give His angels command concerning You, and in their hands they shall bear You up, so that not at any time You should dash Your foot against a stone." Jesus said to him, It is written again, "You should not tempt the Lord your God." Again, the Devil took Him up into a very high mountain and showed Him all the kingdoms of the world and their glory. And he said to Him, All these things I will give You if You will fall down and worship me. Then Jesus said to him, Go, Satan! For it is written, "You should worship the Lord your God, and only Him only should you serve." Then the Devil left him. And behold, angels approached and attended to Him. ~~~~~~~~ 1John4:9+10 In this the love of God was revealed in us, that God sent His only born Child into the world so we might live through Him. In this is love, not that we loved God, but that He loved us and sent His Child to be the atonement concerning our sins. Galatians 3:26-28 For you are all children of God through faith in Messiah Jesus. For as many as were baptized into the Messiah(buried in his death), you put on Messiah(resurrection life, his defeating of death). There is no more distintion between Jew nor Greek, nor slave nor free, there is no more male nor female; for you are all one in Messiah Jesus. Eve's crime is overcome and paid for, her sentence is removed. Her position of human significance is restored in mother Mary. Jesus is the son of a woman, a female human. Eve's undone sentence should read: I removed your sorrow and your conception will be an honour. In security will you bear children, and you are mentally and emotionally independant from your husband and he will love you, and you will respect him and tolerate no rulership enslavement over you. Companion treachery is spiritual slaughter. Yet you say, Why? Because Jehovah has been witness between you and the wife of your youth, (distinguishing & involved) against whom you have dealt treacherously; yet she is your companion and your covenant wife. And did He not make one? (In the beginning . .) Yet He had enough Spirit for two.. and what of the one? He was seeking a godly seed, (before He divided the one into two 'halves') So then, guard your spirit, (which became a whole, completed with your wife's spirit) and do not act treacherously with the wife of your youth. Jehovah, the God of Israel, says He hates this: 'casting away your wife'; and to cover-up this violence with nice clothes (external, material things,appearing good), So says Jehovah of the hosts of angels.

(Coupling is hardly only physical unity, much more importantly, spiritual unity and fulfillment) So then, guard your spirit's wholeness, and do not act treacherously. Malachi 2:14-16 (Disclaimer: Besides devoted coupling, there is an alternative and better way to find spiritual wholeness:

Sunday, November 25, 2012 Production and priorities. PRODUCTION Stories and actions of Jesus whichprove that Jesus is enthusiastic about production to overflowing. Matthew 25:14-30 (condensed) "A rich woman going on a journey, called her three assistants and entrusted to them her property To one she gave five grand, to another two grand, to another, one grand, to each according to her ability. Then she went away. . . . . . . .on her return, the one who had received five grand came forward, bringing five grand more, saying, Madame', here, I have made five grand more.' Madame: "Well done . . You have been faithful over a little; I will promote you over much. . . .' etc. Luke 5: 1-10 (condensed) The crowd was pressing Jesus to hear the word of God, He saw two boats by the lake. He sat down and taught the people from the boat. When he had finished speaking, he said to Simon, "Put out into the deep and let down your nets for a catch." Simon: "W e toiled all night and took nothing! But at your word I will let down the nets." They enclosed a large number of fish, and their nets were breaking, filling both the boats, so that they began to sink. All were astonished at the catch they had taken, when they had brought their boats to land, they left everything and followed him. Boats full of fresh fish? Did they just leave everything there for the crowd to help themselves for free? Why not? They were with the one who could provide that . . . THE PRIORITY Luke 19:1-10 Jesus entered Jericho passing through it. A man called Zacharias, a chief tax collector, and rich, was trying to see Jesus, So he ran on ahead and climbed up into a mulberry tree in order to see Him, and when Jesus reached that place, He looked up, smiled and said to him, hey Zacchaeus, hurry and climb down; it is necessary that I visit at your house today. Zacchaeus welcomed Him joyfully and entertained Him with hospitality. People saw and muttered indignantly, complaining: "He has gone to be the guest of a man who is devoted to fraud and pre-eminently a thief!" But Zacchaeus stood up and solemnly declared to the Lord: "Half of my belongings I will administer to the poor, and forasmuch as I have cheated anyone out of anything, I will restore it four-fold. And Jesus said to him: "Today restoration has realized in this household, since Zacchaeus is also a descendant of Abraham; because God branched out, born like a human, came to seek and to save those who where lost. ----------- Rich people are gifted with special talent and intelligence, to produce quality and quantity and multiply it. They understand the concentration, focus diligence and hard work and organisation which it requires. Difficult to "give away" some to those who don't apply those principals. This is something Jesus understands according to Matthew 25:24 30 the 1st story at the top continued below . . The rich woman administered amounts of her money to her assistents, who where by then educated and well taught, the principals of production. Then she who had received the one grand said, Madame, I knew that you are a hard woman, who reaps where you have not sown, I was afraid, and went and hid your 1 grand in the safe, look here is what belongs to you. Her Madame answered: "You wicked and slothful butler, you knew that I reap where I didn't sow, and gather where I have not strawed: You ought for that reason to have put my money with the exchangers, and then at my return I would have received my money with interest." "So take the 1grand from her, and give it to her who has ten grand. because to every one who holds will be given, and she will have superabundance: but from one who does not hold will be lifted even that which she holds. And fire this unprofitable assistent so she can regret it.

The rich young man said to Jesus: "All these good commandments I have kept from my youth. What do I still lack?" Jesus said to him: "If you determine to become complete, (go sell your property and give to the poor)," Alternative translation: " "Undertake to be busy to trade with what you prominantly have in hand and also grant to, teach and empower the poor who were deprived of education and oppertunities and you will hold deposit in Heaven; and so be here on the same way as I " (or, "on the same road as Me.") for example:Turning refugee camps into industry. But having understood the concept and being distressed, the young man went away, for he had aquired much. And Jesus said to His students: "Truly I say to you that a rich person will impracticably (rigid by self-discipline to achieve) enter into the rulership of Heaven. again I say to you, It is easier for a camel to pass through a needle's eye, than for a rich person to enter the government of God = Freedom =(Justice, peace & joy through navigation of the Holy Spirit) And His students were exceedingly astonished when they heard this, saying: " Who then can be saved?" But having looked at them, Jesus said to them: "Humans are unable, but with God all things are possible." Then answering, Peter said to Him: " Take notice, we left everything and followed You. What then will there be for us? And Jesus said to them, Truly I say to you, You who have followed Me, in the regeneration(new genome) when God as a human, sits in His position of sovereign freedom government, you will also sit in 12 positions of justice, judging the twelve tribes of Israel. And everyone who left houses, or brothers, or sisters, or father, or mother, or wife, or children, or lands, for the sake of My name, (Jesus = 'God rescues') will receive a hundredfold, and will inherit everlasting life.

Breezy Point, Queens, New York Standing by the cross of Jesus were his mother and his mother's sister, Mary the wife of Clopas, and Mary Magdalene. When Jesus saw his mother and John, whom he loved standing nearby, he softly said to his mother, "Woman behold your son!" Then he gently said to John, "Behold, your mother!" And from then John took her to his own home. John 19:25-27 Mary stood weeping outside the tomb, and she stooped to look into the tomb. she saw two angels in white, sitting where the body of Jesus had lain, one at the head and one at the feet. They said to her, "Woman, why are you weeping?" She said to them, "They have taken away my Lord, and I do not know where they have laid him." Having said this, she turned around and saw Jesus standing, but she did not know that it was Jesus. Jesus said to her, "Woman, why are you weeping? Whom are you seeking?" Supposing him to be the gardener, she said to him, "Sir, if you have carried him away, tell me where you have laid him, and I will take him away." Jesus said to her, "Mary." She turned and reckocknized him and said to him in Aramaic, "Rabboni?" Jesus gently said to her, "Do not get attached to me now, because I have not yet ascended to the Father; but go to my brothers and say to them, 'I am ascending to my Father and your Father, to my God and your God." John 20: 11-17 I see it like this, As Jesus gave his Father to Mary and his brothers, his first followers, it applies to us as well, with all who have followed Jesus up to now his Father is our Father. John was also of his first followers, who risked danger to be near Jesus in his last and worst hours. To whom he gave his mother . . and to us. Mother Mary who is now a glorified human being. not a god and not a savior like Jesus - a mother.

You were called to freedom from doctrine, sisters. but not to use your freedom as an excuse for body-greeds, rather through affectionate benevolence, to take care of one another. All healthy regulations are fulfilled in one expression: "love your sisters as you love yourself." But if you mock and criticise-intimidate and threaten-manipulate one another, you should take notice that you use up one another, consuming each other. Choosing to be navigated by the Spirit, will advance you to ending the need, to gratify the body-greeds. The desires of the body draw down on the Spirit, and the desires of the Spirit draw down the body-greeds, for these are opposites to each other, to guard you from doing the impulsive things you want to do. As you yield and live by the navigation of the Spirit, you are free from being under a doctrine, (a law.system) Galatians 5:13-26 Posted by Timothy Nootau at 4:29 PM No comments: Email ThisBlogThis!Share to TwitterShare to FacebookShare to Pinterest Sunday, October 14, 2012 Some, forsaken . .

JESUS: I am the Good Shepherd; and I know and recognize My own, and My own know and recognize Me Even as God my Father knows Me, I also know the Father, and I am giving My own life, laying it down on behalf of the sheep. And I also have other sheep who are not of this nation. I must bring those also from other cultures, and they will listen to My voice and heed My call, so that there will be one flock under one Shepherd. For this reason God the Father floods love into Me, because I lay down My life to take it back again. No one takes it away from Me. On the contrary, I lay it down voluntarily. I am authorized and empowered to lay it down and I am authorized and empowered to take it back again. This commandment have I received as an injunction from My Father. Then a division of opinion arose among the Judeans because of Him saying these things. Many of them said, He is demon possesed and He is insane, Why do you listen to Him? Others argued, These are not the thoughts and the words of one possessed. Can a demon-possessed person open blind eyes? After this the Feast of Dedication was taking place at Jerusalem. It was winter, And Jesus was walking in Solomon's Porch in the temple area. So the Judeans surrounded Him and began asking Him: "How long are You going to keep us in doubt and suspense? If You are really the Messiah, tell us so plainly and openly." Jesus answered: "I have told you so, still you don't believe Me. The very deeds that I do by the power of My Father and in My Father's name bear witness concerning Me. You do not believe and trust Me because you are not My sheep. My sheep hear me and listen to my voice; and I know them, and they follow Me. I give them eternal life, and they will never lose it and never perish, And no one is able to snatch them out of My hand. My Father, Who has given them to Me, is greater and mightier than all and no one is able to snatch them out of the Father's hand. I, Jesus, and God the Father are One.

God's rainbow covenant with nature. There were giants in the earth in those days. Genesis 6 - 9 condensed: When the sons of God coupled with the daughters of humans, they bore to them dreaded descendants who existed perpetually, arrogant people of stature, tyrants. (As the sons of Anak, Num_13:22 +33. With their great name, as the king of Assyria, Isa_37:11. Thus armed, they daringly insulted the rights of all their neighbours, and trampled upon all that is just and sacred.Deu_2:11 they were reckoned among the REPHAIM) Jehovah saw that the wickedness of humanity was great on the earth, and every imagination of the thoughts of their heart were only cruel, continually. Abused children often become abusive parents, because, if not interrupted by mercy. . the only language they know is cruelty. So Jehovah regretted that He had made humanity, and He was grieved to His heart. But Noah found grace in His eyes, because he was a just man and uncorrupted concerning his ancestry. Noah walked with God. And God said to Noah: "The end of all flesh has come before Me, because the earth is filled with violence through them. So, behold, I will destroy them from the earth. Make an ark of Cyprus timbers. Make rooms in the ark three storeys high and pitch it inside and outside with pitch. In the six hundredth year of Noah's life, in the second month, on the seventeenth day on this same day Noah and his wife and sons and their three wives, went into the ark; they, and every animal according to their kind, and every beast according to its kind, and every creeping thing that creeps on the earth according to its kind; and every fowl according to its kind, every bird of every wing, went in male and female, as God had commanded him. On this day all the fountains of the great deep were risen, and the windows of the heavens were opened up. Jehovah shut them in within the ark, and the rain poured onto the earth for forty days and forty nights. Water flooded over the earth and the waters had risen and bore up the ark and it was lifted up above the earth and the ark floated on the surface of the waters, and the waters heaved exceedingly violent on the earth, and all the high mountains under the heavens were covered. Every living thing which was on the surface of the earth was wiped away, from human to cattle, and to the creeping things, and the fowl of the heavens, only Noah was left, and those who were with him in the ark. The waters flooded strong over the earth for a hundred and fifty days. Then Jehovah made wind to pass over the earth, and the waters subsided. Also the fountains of the deep and the windows of heaven were closed, and the rain was restrained. The waters resided from off the earth continually. After 5 months the waters had gone down. In the seventh month, the ark parked upon the mountains of Ararat. The tops of the mountains were seen on the 1st day of the tenth month. On the 27 day of the 11th month, the ground was dry enough to go out of the ark. Noah built an altar to Jehovah and offered burnt offerings on the altar. Jehovah smelled a sweet odor and said in His heart: "I will never again curse the earth because of humanity, because the imagination of the human heart is exceedingly harmful from it's youth." So I will not again smite every other living thing as I have done. I set my rainbow in the cloud. And it shall be a token of a covenant between Me and the earth. When I bring a cloud over the earth, the rainbow shall be seen in the cloud, and I will remember My covenant which is between Me and you (Noah and descendants) and every living creature and the waters shall not become a flood that destroys all flesh.

At first, we were zombies, stuck in our decadent habits and it's morbid consequences, in which we used to waddle under the influence of the seductive propaganda of this world, transmitted by the power-controlling slave-master of the air, that spirit who is still working in the children of unbelief, who lash out against fair reason. So did we all, also live among them in the lusts of our flesh, indulging the desires of the flesh and of the mind, and were by nature children of vengeance and strife, just like the rest. But God, being rich in mercy, because of His great love, with which He had loved us, even when we were the undead in our desperate deeds, He made us alive, together in the resurrection of Messiah (by grace, you have been saved), and raised us up with Him, and seated us in an authority position with Him in the heavenly spiritual places, in the ruler ship of Messiah Jesus, so that in the ages to come He may show the surpassing riches of His grace in kindness toward us who now operate our own lives according to the merciful and truthful ruler ship of the justice of Messiah Jesus. Because by grace have we been saved, through faith; and that not out of ourselves, it is the gift of God; not as a result of work achievement, so that no one may boast, because, we are His workmanship, newly created in Messiah Jesus for creative fitting occupations, a life purpose, which God had prepared beforehand for each one in which we could function and improve.

Human soul is made of the breath of God. Gen.2:7 Soul in human is like an ovum. Seed of Jesus imparted into the soul by the Holy Spirit. This 'fertilized egg' (fertilized soul) grows into a new creature with divine qualities like that of Jesus. A whole being: impacting supernatural qualities into the body, gradually turning flesh into spiritualized matter, to not 'die' anymore. Ransom to redeem human souls. Isaiah 53:10 The inclination of God Almighty, was to crush His Son; God caused him to experience these things: to be ill, worn out, wounded, in pain and deep grief: "So did God prepare His soul as an offering for guilt and tresspasses. And Jesus will see his seed, he will prolong his days, and the purposes of God will prosper in his hand. ------------- There was a Pharisees, named Nicodemus, a ruler of the Jews, who came to Jesus by night, and said to him, Master, we know that you are a teacher from God, because no-one can do these miracles that you do, except if God is with him. Jesus answered him: "Really really, let me tell you something, except if a human gets born again, they cannot see the kingdom of God. Nicodemus said him: "How can a human be born when they are old? can they enter the second time into the mother's womb, and be born? Jesus answered: "Really, really, let me tell you, except if a human gets born* of water* and of the Spirit, they cannot enter into the kingdom of God." "That which is born of the flesh is flesh; and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit." Marvel not that I said to you, you must be born again. The wind blows where it wants, and you hear the sound of it, but can not tell from where it comes, and where it goes: so is every one who is born of the Spirit. --------- *Water = baptism = burial = death. Death is a state in which matter(flesh) becomes fertilizer (food) for some other life form, in this case, the new creature, the new completed you. *Born = conceived = regenerated = spring forth = born.

Luke6:12-16 Judas was also the financial manager of their group, but money had control over him. John13:29/John 12:4-6 After the years of witnessing all the miracles and healing done by Jesus, to help people, Matth10:1 and their 3 years of training to do the same, Judas may have become frustrated that this whole project was not 'profiting', (financially rewarding). This may have been the reason why he was influence-able by evil, Luke22:3-6 to betray Jesus, their tutor, for money. The church paid Judas to guide a whole mob of armed enemies to where Jesus and his students camped in the park. To identify who Jesus was, Judas walked right up to Jesus and kissed him. Jesus asked him: "Friend, why are you here?" He reminded him that he was a friend and he didn't dodge the kiss either.Matth26:47-50 He knew Judas loved him and this may have started "wakening" Judas to what he had done. When Judas saw Jesus being falsly accused in the church office, and being abused like a criminal, he realized that he was responsible for the condemning of an innocent person, who was his friend. Matth27:3-10 Judas was overwhelmed with remorse, he gave the betray money back to the church officials and committed suicide by hanging himself. The intense dread that some persons may feel when they have betrayed a good friend under the convincing influence of unconscientious enemies. I won't be surprized if Judas's soul is safe with Jesus somewhere in heaven, because they both died that day, and on the cross, Jesus said to another criminal, also crucified: "Today you will be with me in paradise". If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and truth is not in us. If we confess our sins,1John1:9 Jesus is faithful and fair to forgive us, and to clean us from all injustice, lies and greed. Judas confessed and repented.

Grace to you and peace from God our Parent and the Lord Jesus Messiah. Adorable Divine Parent of our master, Jesus Messiah, Who has benefited us with every spiritual provision in the spiritual dimension within the Spiritual Government of Messiah: He decided before the foundation of the world that He would choose those who chose Him to grow into love with pure motives and without flaw before Him : having had the plan to place through Jesus Messiah, children for Himself, according to the good intensions of His determination, He freely bestowed on us this commendable and awesome favour of His grace, in the Beloved Jesus: in Whom we have our redemption, a fully paid ransom through His Blood, for the forgiveness of all our trespasses, according to the abundance of His grace, which He provided to prosper in us in all wisdom and honest fair logic. Ephesians 1:2-8 ----- Meaning at present that any other pact or covenant that was made or paid for with decent or indecent rituals or human or animal blood or children etc. or oaths, being initiated into cult or occult or powerful societies for the sake of gaining otherwise unreachable benefits like fame or success in whatever area, or social power or magic powers.

Her philantropic confederates are acknowledged in the government when they sit in meetings with the senators of the land.(Another version of v23) v.25-31 Her ambience is that of majesty, boldness, strength, beauty, glory, goodness, honour and excellence. and she laughs, having fun and enjoys all the days of her life. She communicates with confidence, wisdom and skill and explains the neccesity of the principals of kindness and mercy. "MERCY HELPS" She plans and prepares well ahead for the ways and travels of her household, and she avoids careless attitudes. Her children rise up strong with accomplishment and get well established, and call her an honest fair, motivating guide and leader. so does her spouse, who boasts about her: calling her the highest rank in quality company who has accomplished wealth and strength for the whole family.

She travels with her employees, like merchants' ships; as travelling traders and brings her food supplies from distant countries. She gets up early, while it is still dark, to prepare food for her household, and then delegates tasks to her young women employees. She makes plans to start farming, considers a field and buys it with a portion of the profit she has made, and plants a vineyard. She exercises and concentrates to empower her waist and abs with super strength, and works out her arms to be powerfully strong. She watches that her profit is good; during the night she always leaves a light on. She is a director who appoints positions for ope-raters, through which she holds up and maintains her district circuit. She organizes reach-out projects to protect the depressed and afflicted; she directs social service fellowships to support the destitute and the needy. She does not fear the winter snow concerning her household ; because all her household and relatives and friends are supplied with crimson dyed woven garments. She creates woven tapestry coverings; her garments are made of silk and purple dyed linen . Her spouse is a recognized advisor and counselor in the academy, who is established in the company of the senators and the diplomats of the land. She makes material, sheets of fine linen, and sells it, and supplies girdles and belts to the merchants.

Injustice causes to much strain on one side. this causes a dent. this creates imbalance. Imbalance creates a wobble. A wobble gets worse. This creates loss of control. A wobble can not fix by itself. If you try to carry on with the ride You become a part of the wobble and wobble along out of control. Stop the vehicle (Stop the project). This may take humility. Replace the wheel and prepare the road ahead.. ------- Humble yourself sincerely under the powerful able hand of God, that He may lift you up in due time: Cast all your distractions & concern on Him; because He is interested in you & you matter to Him. Remain sober & on your guard; because your adversary the Accuser, is walking around like a roaring lion, plotting whom he may devour: Resist stedfast in faith, knowing that your sisters in the world undergo similar afflictions. God of all grace, Who has called us to His eternal glory through Jesus Messiah, will, after you have suffered this, settle you and make you perfectly stable and establish you with strength.

My spiritual journey is a personal experience between me & God. I am not Scientology or a member of their church. I don't know anything about them, so I don't criticise them, I just don't want to be mistaken for one. I don't belong to any religious organization presently. I have been involved with a few christian churches during my past and still am a 'member' of the Methodist church, only officially. I hardly ever go to church meetings. I studied one year Bible college at Rhema. There I discovered reading the Bible with the Hebrew & Greek Concordance. Since then I do not study/search the Ancient Scriptures without the Concordance & other references. This is what I mean by :"Reading the Bible scientifically." There are similar alternative translation possibilities once you see the varieties in the concordance, but then you also need to be guided by amazing parallels in the different ancient scripture 'books' over the thousands of years. I also studied a 2 year diploma course at a non-denominational Academic Bible Counseling Institute. I need to know and understand the true meaning of spiritual realities that were written ages ago in languages that I don't know. Translated by church men, discriminating against women and gay persons. Most references in the regular bibles of 'a man' or 'men' ought to have been translated as 'person' or 'human' or people. And 'sons' are children. A Bible that is translated in such a way that it makes women and gay persons seem irrelevant or even reject able is not a pleasant book to read for these people, but probably very pleasant for hetero & fake-hetero men who made themselves superior, and who have used these convenient translations to promote for themselves status and influence through-out the centuries. Apostle Paul's 'attitude' toward women is not parallel to Jesus attitude toward women for example. Many simple spiritual necessities are camouflaged with complicated vocabulary and mixed up sentences.. Because people who have a spiritual life is free from domination. Prayer is still the beginning & final way to get understanding. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- The Elusive Tomb. When you feel like dying or you feel like you are dying . . *** Existing parallel with the sacred material structures, the cross and tomb of Jesus, are the same mysterious 'places' in the infinite, the cross is a DOOR opening into the tomb a place of transformation regeneration a gateway to resurrection life. Dream your being sinking away into the dark waters of the death of the Divine. a place of infinite peace and nothingness wait for the slow-motion lightning that glorifies the water and turns the death into life flowing through your being awakening you in a new dimension of life and love.

The cost: Then Jesus said to His students, if anyone decides to follow Me, let you disown yourself and take up your cross (readyness to sacrifice your life) and follow Me. For whoever intends to secure your own life, will lose it, and whoever intends to lose your own life for My sake will find it (worship; obedience; justice; truth & mercy) Mat 16:24-28 God the Creator in any case gives to each their talents, purpose and achievements. You do not have to 'pay with your soul' to achieve anything. That is a deception of the cruel reaper to steal your soul.

Mar 13:30 "This generation" could not be the people who were alive in those days, because it's 2000 years ago. This generation that Jesus is talking about is the old genome. The human genetic composition since the recorded beginning of humanity. The new genome that has started with the resurrection of Jesus is potentially in many people who may have been willing to accept it. The receiving of the new genome happens through a "death", a laying down of your life in relating your trauma with the devastating event of the cross of Jesus into His resurrection. This prophecy implies that the old genome people will carry on until Jesus arrives to remain on earth for many ages. Many people, who have the new genome in them, do not seem to activate it though. ------------------ Take heed, watch and pray: because you do not know when it is the time.

If we say that we have no offences, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us. If we acknowledge our offences, He is trust able and fair to forgive us, and to purge us from all injustices. If we say that we have not erred , we present God as a liar, and His communication does not get through to us. 1 Jo 1:4-10 Posted by Timothy Nootau at 12:41 PM No comments: Email ThisBlogThis!Share to TwitterShare to FacebookShare to Pinterest Sunday, October 2, 2011 Self-gods.

"There is no fear of God before their eyes." . . . but through the Law is the knowledge of crime & punishment. But now, a justification by God, separate from the Law, has been revealed, (as being testified by the Law and the Prophets) ; the justification by God through faith in Jesus our Messiah, toward all and upon all those who believe, because there is no distinction, because all have done crimes and all fall short of the deservance of God, but are now justified freely, by His grace, through the redemption that is in Jesus Messiah; Whom God has presented as an Atonement, through faith in His innocent Blood, to declare His justice through the pardoning of the crimes, that had taken place before, during the tolarance of God; but the display of His righteousness at this time, is for Him to be just and to forgive the person, who believes in Jesus. Then can any-one still claim that they deserve or achieved salvation? That is now excluded. Through what principal? That of work achievement? No, but being deserving is excluded through the law of faith. So we conclude that a person is justified only by faith, without the toiling effort of practicing the Law. Romans 3:11-28 Posted by Timothy Nootau at 4:09 PM No comments: Email ThisBlogThis!Share to TwitterShare to FacebookShare to Pinterest Sunday, May 29, 2011 Humanity evolved from mermaids? To think that humanity evolved from a kind of cetacean (maybe mermaids :) , or not, is not really my point! I believe in creation and evolution. The Creator and His creation. That evolution and metamorphoses are a part of creation, and that creation is an ongoing process. Evolution and metamorphosis are mechanisms that were created within species and get triggered in certain conditions. Sequences of changes can be traced back into prehistory to some extend, but there are many gaps filled with theories. I believe that God created a variety of basic species in ocean and on land and that can fly. Evolution may have led to varieties of species, but to me evolution is God still creating to adapt interesting new kinds of a species to different environments or resolving appearances that otherwise may result in ecological imbalances. To me, the evolution process is a valid proof that God the Creator is continuously involved and continuing with His creation. Bottle nose dolphins are a sophisticated, evolved species of cetacean. http://www.guardian.co.uk/science/2003/jul/03/research.science Humans were created to resemble God and were last on the list of basic species. This was the approached after centuries of material creation experience and observing the qualities of water, land and sky creatures. Now, how to create a material being, that resembles God, Who is Spirit? And not only that, God, Who is also whole, in the sense of undefined male & female characteristics integrated. This one created creature, human being, started of as genderless, because it was whole and at 1st was not meant to multiply like the other creatures, but meant to be in companionship with God it's Creator. But still this human lacked the ability to recognize this and asked for a mate and was as a result divided into male & female to reproduce like the rest of the creatures. The Creator did not let go of His goal though, but that is a long essay explained in a little book on my website: http://soullife.yolasite.com/ Posted by Timothy Nootau at 6:56 AM No comments: Email ThisBlogThis!Share to TwitterShare to FacebookShare to Pinterest Sunday, May 22, 2011 Mat 24:36 But of that day and hour no one has knowledge, not even the angels in heaven, or the Son, but the Father only.

And He will send out his angels with a loud sound of a trumpet, and they will get His followers together from the four winds, from one end of heaven to the other. In the mean time, Jesus is among us, visiting some who are willing to do His missions. Saul was a Jew who thought he was serving God by capturing the followers of Jesus. Jesus, the Son of God, saw his zeal to serve God and corrected him into the right direction. {As Saul traveled, it happened that he got close to Damascus, and suddenly a light from the sky shone around him. He fell on the ground, and heard a voice saying to him, "Saul, Saul, why do you persecute me?" He said, "Who are you, Lord?" The Lord said, "I am Jesus, whom you are persecuting.

And when the seven thunders had given out their voices, I was about to write down their words: but I heard a voice from the sky come to my ears, saying:"Conceal the things which the seven thunders said, and do not write them down." And the angel, whom I saw taking his position on the sea and on the earth, lifted up his hand to the sky, And by Him, Who is living for ever and ever, Who made the heaven and the things in it, and the earth and the things in it, and the sea and the things in it, he took his oath that there will be no more time space: But in the days of the voice of the seventh angel, when he begins to bellow, then will the secret of God be executed to completion, the wonders that He has declared to His servants the prophets. And the voice came to me again from the sky, saying: "Go, take the little book which is open in the hand of the angel who has taken his place on the sea and on the earth. And I went to the angel, and said to him: "Give me the little book." And Rainbow angel said to me: "Accept it and eat it and it will make your stomach bitter, but in your mouth it will be sweet as honey." And I took the little book out of the angel's hand and ate it; and it was sweet as honey in my mouth, but when I had taken it, my stomach was made bitter. And he explained to me: "It is neccesary that you take inspired messages again before many peoples and nations and tribes and languages and rulers and kings."

Such confidence have we toward God through Jesus ; that though we are not sufficient by ourselves our sufficiency is from God; Who also made us sufficient as presenters of the new covenant; not of the letter, but of the Spirit. because the letter kills, but the Spirit gives life. If the service of death, which is the written law, engraved on stones, came with such glory, that the children of Israel could not look steadily at the face of Moses shining with glory; which was temporarily: how much more is the service of the Spirit with glory? If the service of condemnation had a measure of glory, the service of justification exceeds by far in glory. Having because of that, such a hope, we may speak frankly with assuredness. The children of Israel wouldn't look steadily to that which was passing away. Their minds were hardened with pretences of piety, for until this very day at the reading of the law, the old covenant, the same mask remains, but in Jesus the Messiah, it passes away. Up to this day, when the law is read, a blinding covering of pretence, lies on their hearts. But whenever someone turns to the Lord, the Messiah, the covering of pretences are taken away. Now, the Lord is the Spirit and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty. And we all, now with unmasked open faces, behold, as into a supernatural mirror the reflection of the glory of the Lord, are being transformed into the same image from glory to glory, by the Spirit of the Lord. 2Cor.3 Divine comfort Bless our God and Father of our Lord Jesus the Messiah!

A walking dead body or corpse that was brought back to life by some supernatural force, and is hungry for human brains. 2.The second, according to American mythology, is a body that did not die but is without a soul. A soulless body who is the slave of a magician or a dark force. The undead. The second concept is closer to a psychological state that is often found among ordinary humans. It may be called FROZEN SOUL SYNDROME. Symptoms: 1. Stiff emotionless expression of the face. 2. Iris of eyes look cold. 3. Small pupils that changes very little in darker places. 4. The persons whole appearance seems set like an ice cube. 5. Cold emotions. May seem cruel or heartless. 6. Speaks but communicates with difficulty. 7. Needs other humans or a human to survive. Some causes: 1. Long term experience of being pushed out of a social or family's warm circle. 2. Long term abuse in a relationship. 3. Fixated state of shock because of a very traumatic incident. 4. Severe self-rejection of gays into a closeted hetero- lifestyle. 5. Severe or continuous humiliation.

The prophet was dressed in a woven camel's hair frock with a leather belt around his waist. His name was John. His general diet consisted of wild honey and locust kebabs. He was fearless, talking to people about the realities of there lives and what they needed to do to live fairly. People admired him and flocked to him for new hope. They let him immerse them in the river as a sign of washing away their past recklessness and starting with a new fair attitude. He claimed that there is Some-one Who is going to appear after him: “He is much stronger than me, He is supernaturally powerful, and He is so significant that I am not worthy to untie His sandal straps. I immersed you in water, but He will immerse you in the Holy Spirit." Then, Jesus, Who came from Nazareth in Galilee, arrived at the river. He requested and was immersed by John in the Jordan River. Just as He was getting up out of the water, He saw the sky split open and the Holy Spirit floating down on Him like a dove. Then a Voice echoed from heaven: "You are My Son, Whom I love. I am certainly pleased with You!" Immediately the Holy Spirit transferred Jesus away into the wilderness. Jesus stayed in the wilderness among the wild animals for forty days and the angels were protecting Him. He was also tempted by Satan, but defeated him with reasoning from the ancient scrolls. In the meantime, John had been arrested. After all this, Jesus went back to Galilee and declared that there is this good news about the Kingdom of God. He said: "From now on this is a time filled with opportunity, the Kingdom of The Almighty Creator is approaching with power! It is in reach for ordinary & any, people. Consider your lives through prayer and settle yourselves to believing this good news, resulting in freedom & eternal life.” Posted by Timothy Nootau at 9:28 PM No comments: Email ThisBlogThis!Share to TwitterShare to FacebookShare to Pinterest Thursday, December 23, 2010 They knew first.

Mary gasped:” What possible sort of greeting is this ?” Gabriel said softly: “Don’t be afraid, Mary, because you have found favor with God.” Mary:”What for?” Gabriel: “Wow, you will conceive in your womb, and give birth to a Son, and call His name Jesus!” Mary, astonished:”Give birth?” Gabriel: “He shall be great, and be called Son of the Highest, and God will give Him the throne of David.” Mary stunned: “The throne of David and be the king?” Gabriel: “Yes! He will reign over the tribes of Jacob, into the future; and there will be no end to His reign.” Mary, surprised: “And how can I give birth, seeing I don’t have a husband?' Gabriel explained to her: “The Holy Spirit will flow over you and you will be enveloped by the power of the Highest, Who will create the seed inside your womb. Mary whispers: “Awesome!” Gabriel: “That is why this holy-begotten Being shall be called, The Son of God.” Mary goes a little pale. Gabriel: “Yes you are aware that Elisabeth, your aunt, has also conceived a son in her old age, and this is the sixth month to her who was called barren? Because, nothing will be impossible with God.” Then Mary said slowly: "Well then , consider me the servant of the Lord; let it be to me according to your message . . “ Gabriel slightly nodded, smiled and left her.

Is not this the carpenter {tektwn} ? Matthew(13:55) calls Him "the carpenter's son" Jesus was both. Evidently since Joseph's death Jesus had carried on the business and was "the carpenter" of Nazareth. The word tektwn comes from tekein, tiktw: to beget, create, like texnh (craft, art). It is a very old word, from Homer down. It was originally applied to the worker in wood or builder with wood like our carpenter. Then it was used for any artisan or craftsman in metal, or in stone as well as in wood and even of sculpture. It is certain that Jesus worked in wood. He may also have worked in stone and may even have helped building stone buildings in Galilee. But in Nazareth the people knew Him, His family (no mention of Joseph), and His trade, and they discounted all the work of love that they now saw with their own eyes and heard with their own ears, miracles of healing. This word "carpenter" throws a flashlight, which falls on the 1st, 30 yrs, from infancy to adulthood, on the life of Jesus, Messiah.

The Lord GOD Who gathers the outcasts to His new nation says: " I will still gather others to my new nation, besides those that are already gathered into the new nation. " Neither let a child of a foreigner, who has joined himself to the LORD, say:" The LORD has utterly separated me from His people". Because, I will bring them to My holy mountain, and make them happy in my house of prayer: their offerings and their sacrifices will be accepted ; because My house will be called a house of prayer for all people. "Neither let an elven say: " I am, a dry tree." For this says the LORD to the elves: (those who can't or don't produce children) "To you who keep My Sabbaths, and choose the things that please Me, and take hold of My covenant; will I give in My house and within My walls [1]a place (position of power, authority & fellowship) [2]and a name [a symbol of honor & renown] better than that of sons and of daughters: I will give them an everlasting 'name' [position of distinction], that shall not be cut off. This says the LORD, protect proper verdict, and do justice: because My deliverance is close, and My justice will soon be revealed. Blessed is the person who does this, and the children that take hold of it; that guard the sabbath from wounding it or dissolving it, and guards their hand from doing any harm. ------------------------------------------------------- [Sections from Isaiah 56] Posted by Timothy Nootau at 1:16 PM No comments: Email ThisBlogThis!Share to TwitterShare to FacebookShare to Pinterest Sunday, September 12, 2010 And as for the vision which the king saw of a watcher, a holy one, coming down from heaven, saying, Let the tree be cut down . . And as the watchers gave orders to let the broken end and the roots of the tree be left, so your kingdom will be safe for you after it is clear to you that the heavens are ruling. For this cause, O King, let my suggestion be pleasing to you, and let your mistake be covered by justice in protecting the weak and your evil-doing by mercy to the poor, so that the time of your well-being may be longer. At the end of twelve months the was walking on the roof of his great house in Babylon, and said, Is this not great Babylon, which I have made for the living-place of kings, by the strength of my power and for the glory of my honour? While the word was still in the king's mouth, a voice came down from heaven, saying, O King Nebuchadnezzar, to you it is said: The kingdom has gone from you: And they will send you out from among men, to be with the beasts of the field; they will give you grass for your food like the oxen, and seven moons will go by you, till you are certain that the Most High is ruler in the kingdom of men, and gives it to any man at His pleasure. That very hour the order about Nebuchadnezzar was put into effect: and he was sent out from among men, and had grass for his food like the oxen, and his body was wet with the dew of heaven, till his hair became long as eagles' feathers and his nails like those of birds. And at the end of the days, I, Nebuchadnezzar, lifting up my eyes to heaven, got back my reason, and, gave praise and honour to God Who is living for ever, whose rule is an eternal rule and whose kingdom goes on from generation to generation. And all the people of the earth are as nothing: He does His pleasure in the army of heaven and among the people of the earth: and no one is able to keep back His hand, or say to Him, What are you doing? At the same time my reason came back to me; my honour and my great name came back to me; and my wise men and my lords were turned to me again; and I was made safe in my kingdom and had more power than before. Now I, Nebuchadnezzar, give worship and praise and honour to the King of heaven; for all his works are true and his ways are right: and those who go in pride he is able to make low.

Notice that peak time has come for you to awaken from spiritual stupor: because now your rescue from dead-ends is nearer than when you first believed. The night is far gone, and the day is near: so let us discard the works of obscurity, back-biting, betrayal & gossip-lies, and arm ourselves with light, With honest behaviour as openly in the day dead-end ways: rioting and intoxication, deliberate rude behaviour & lust indulgence, competitiveness and jealousy. don't yield to contemplating the body's desires to do its desires. but follow the Leader of the angels, Jesus Christ, to let Him and His angels lead you out of dead-ends through the maze of life on the road of God's mission for your life. Romans 13:10-14 Rainbow:"I know this works, but it's easy to turn into a dead-end, but by praying it then dawns on me and I turn around again.

He sent out his best chauffeurs in limousines to escort those who were invited to the feast, but they would not come . . . Again he sent out his chauffeurs, but this time accompanied with some off his diplomats and said: 'Tell those who are invited, "Take notice, I have prepared a luxurious dinner, and it's ready. A variety of the best meats are dished up and wonderful events prepared and all the things are ready. Come to the wedding celebration!" But still the invited guests made light of it, and went their own ways, some to their large estates, others to their corporate businesses, and the 'syndicates' kidnapped his chauffeurs and diplomats, and treated them shamefully, and assassinated them to prove their power and influence. When the King heard about this, He was furious, so He sent in His marines and destroyed those murderers, and bombed their cities. "Then he said to his other diplomats, 'The wedding is still ready, but those who were invited weren't worth it. Let the rest off the chauffeurs take you with the limousines to the intersections of the highways, cities, towns and townships and any people you may find, invite them and escort them to the wedding feast.' So these diplomats went out into the highways, and gathered together as many people as they could find, both bad and good and broken. The wedding feast dining hall was filled with guests. The king came in to see the guests, there he saw a man who didn't put on the provided royal wedding robe, and he said to him: 'Friend, how did you come in here, not wearing a wedding robe?' But this guy said nothing . . . Then the king said to the chauffeurs, 'Okay,bind his hands and feet, take him away, and throw him out into that place of obscurity where they weep of regrets and grind their teeth in frustration.' For many were invited, but the selected are them who don't try to enter on their own famous identity, striking appearance, fame or status, so that all have an equal chance. It was not whether this person was good or bad, but that he didn't wear a royal wedding robe, in other words, identifying with His Son. And accepting the identity of His Kingdom. A bad person, wearing a royal wedding robe, was welcome. [Based on Matthew 22] Posted by Timothy Nootau at 5:42 AM No comments: Email ThisBlogThis!Share to TwitterShare to FacebookShare to Pinterest Monday, March 1, 2010 A contract has 2 sides. Equal sides of this broken contract: Ephesians 5 : 22-33. False: "Men must rule over women by subduing them and demanding of women to submit to them . . . "Because the bible says so...?" A lot of church people believe this lie because it is preached in churches and thousands of women suffer and suffocate because of this, even thousands who don't go to church, but inherited the fable from previous generations. Why the deception? Because most people remember only the 1st verse of a chapter on a topic in the bible. So lets read the last section first, about men, then last, the part about women. Eph 5:25 Husbands, love your wives, same as Christ also love His followers and gave Himself up on their behalf, [meaning suffering and dying] Eph 5:26 that He might sanctify them, cleansing them by washing them in the Word, like water. Eph 5:27 that He might present them to Himself as the glorious assembly, not having traces and signs of weariness, or malnourishment or any such things, but that they can be holy [wholesome individuals] and without flaw. Eph 5:28 So, in the same way, husbands ought to love their wives as their own bodies, (he loving his wife loves himself), Eph 5:29 because no one hates his own flesh, but nourishes and cherishes it, just as the Lord does for His followers. Eph 5:30 We are members of Jesus body,of His flesh and bones. Eph 5:31 "For this, a man shall leave his father and mother, and shall be joined to his wife, and the two shall be one flesh." Gen. 2:24 Eph 5:32 This mystery is great, but I am speaking of a parallel about Jesus Christ and His followers. Eph 5:33 However,let each husband love his wife as himself, in order that the wife can be in awe of her husband. Eph 5:22 Wives, submit yourselves [voluntarily] to your own husbands, as to the Lord. [not:"women.. let your husband , or men, subject you to themselves by quoting bible verses out of context and through that, threaten you with God into enslavement ?"] Eph 5:23 because a husband is the head of the wife, just as Christ is the Head of His followers, and He is the Savior of His followers. Meaning the 'head' must save, not devastate. Eph 5:24 But just as the followers confidently submit to Christ, so also the wives should be able to submit themselves, to [only]their own husbands in thorough confidence. --------------- When the man does not keep his side of the contract, then the contract is broken. Why must a woman keep a broken contract? Either the man must restore his side or the woman must drop her side.

A single concept is like a point ... "Oh, you've got a point there!" BUT one can spin around a point with all sorts of interpretations, You can even spiral out until your 'doctrine' is w..a..y.. out. But when you get two points that reflect similarities & explain each other sensibly, you can "draw" a line & you get stability. Upon stability, more concepts can be build, as long as balance is kept throughout by the applying of valid parallels, from Old Testament & New Testament & nature & science. EXAMPLE CONCEPT: DNA ". . the Word became flesh . . " Bible: Old Testament: Gen 1:3 And God said, Let there be light. And there was light. Psa 33:6 By the word of God were the heavens made, and all the angel hosts of the heavens by the breath of His mouth. Psa 33:9 For He spoke, and it was ; He commanded, and it stood fast. New Testament: Joh 1:1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. Joh 1:4 In him was life, and the life was the light of people. John1:14 And the Word became flesh, and dwelt among us full of grace and truth. Nature: The gene: The functional and physical unit of heredity passed from parent to offspring through mitosis. Genes are pieces of DNA, and most genes contain the information for making a specific protein and thus cells. A gene is a sequence (a string) of bases made up of combinations of A, T, C, and G. Unique combinations determine the gene's function, much as letters join together to form words. Each person has thousands of genes -- billions of base pairs of DNA or bits of information repeated in the nuclei of human cells -- which determine individual characteristics. http://www.medterms.com/script/main/art.asp?articlekey=3560 Science: genetic engineering: the branch of biology dealing with the splicing and recombining of specific genetic units from the DNA of living organisms as in order to produce new species or biochemicals The darkest aspect of genetic engineering is the possibility that a government or institution might undertake to enhance human beings by means of genetic engineering. The possibility of using this technology to create biological weapons.

'Dying' is to God, a gate for the soul from one dimension to another and not as tragic as for us, who stay behind. Just like there are nice places & nasty places on earth, so are their nice & nasty places in the spirit dimension. Faith in the sacrifice of God "buys" you a place, like getting a green card, into His Kingdom of light & beauty, & protection by His warrior angels to escort your soul there safely. The mean spirits of the bad places are abducters of the souls who pass through the death-gate & snatch souls away to nasty places.

Beyond the material forms we know there are also definable shape and form in the spiritual dimension: Among others, the human soul. Souls, invisible inside people, can be critically deprived. What is nourishment to the soul? Communication: Verbal .. & non-verbal(art). Sincere communication. Honest communication. For the purpose of understanding. This may spark hope. Two or more people discussing similar interests. Exciting: making clear plans. Appears then faith & courage. This may bring about co-operation. Creating together with reasonable trust & respect. Each in their own function & position. Each receiving & giving due credit to each other. This may spark love & happiness. This feeds the soul. This process should also happen between a person & God, Who is easily approachable in His human form, Jesus of Nazareth. A soul hungers naturally for its Creator's love. Individuals often get excluded from this communication process, because of lies & falseness that jeopardise, or pride that humiliates, or selfishness that wants all the credit. The result is that the "bully" & the "victim", their souls may both suffer starvation. Ironically the desperation of soul-starvation often cause unfair approaches in communication. The nourishing of a starved soul, best to begin communication with God He can not be intimidated by unfair needs & He has infinite patience & mercy for those who won't let go of Him no matter what.

It is a fair father's privilege to be enthusiastic for his child's success, but by having to support His child to achieve the great victory, He also has to realise that he has to allow his child to be exposed to parallel great risks and trials. Sometimes support means to insist that the child sticks to the plan of his purpose even though things get much tougher or harsher than what he had expected and even when the child begs to drop out. This may at first seem merciless, but later when the victory is won and millions of lives are saved and healed and the child achieved the highest position of government, then what seemed merciless, proofs to have been true mercy.

The higher the degree of orgoglio, the more difficult it is to solve personal problems. Especially socially uncomfortable problems. Orgoglio makes a person stupid . . meaning that you "can't" {won't} understand things that may require changes in your life which is of a 'humbling nature' even though these changes may be for the better or personally liberating. Orgoglio also won't let you admit mistakes you have made, which may have caused serious harm to other persons' lives. Orgoglio will demand of you to try proove things that make you seem better than 'others'. And may even cause a person to loose valuable relationships. Orgoglio blocks love and the healing that flows from love. Orgoglio needs to be degrading. Orgoglio demands extra & continious undeserved recognition. Almost like worship. Orgoglio is unsustainable without causing severe harm.

In the year that the king, who declared the strength of God, died, In that year, I then saw Almighty God sitting on a throne, high and lifted up, and the hem of His garments filled the holy palace. Above it stood the fire elves; each one had six wings; with two he covered his face, and with two he covered his feet, and with two he flew. And one cried to another, and said, Holy, holy, holy, is Almighty God of the Hosts of angels; the whole earth is full of His glory. And the gateposts moved at the loud voice of the one who cried, and the palace was filled with smoke. Then I said, "Freak out, I'm freaked out! I'm going to pieces; I'm a person of dirty lips, and I live among people of dirty lips; and now my eyes have seen the King, Almighty God of the Hosts of angels." Then one of the fire elves flew to me, having a live coal in his hand, which he snatched with tongs from the altar. And he laid it on my mouth and said, "Pay attention!, this has touched your lips; and your iniquity is taken away, and your sins purged." And I heard the voice of the Lord, saying: "Whom shall I send, and who will go for us?" Then I said, "Here I am; send me!"

Since being gay is inherited, one of your parents or both may be gay . . . don't look so shocked! If you want them to accept you, you must be prepared to accept them as well!" Pretencia:"Dr.SpacedOut, you make it seem so normal, but it helps to know that someone is going to help me through the process." Dr.SpacedOut:"It is my pleasure, but because every individual's situation is different the best deal for us is to include God in the process. We will pray for wisdom and as He leads you, go into the water of freedom slowly, until you can swim fearlessly. Posted by Timothy Nootau at 12:18 PM No comments: Email ThisBlogThis!Share to TwitterShare to FacebookShare to Pinterest Sunday, August 23, 2009 Intensity concentrates. Intense anxiety and intense deprived ness usually result in unquenchable sex-hunger. This can become a sub-consciously driven compulsion. This is a tendency of, not only, but especially closet gay people. 'Closets' are deeply deprived of love and honor and feel intensely threatened about being gay, because of often severe punishment in the past. That's why such nympho or sex-crave behavior, although disturbing, must not be judged or condemned . . because such attitudes are the very things that drove this human into such a state . . . so now? what now? First things first: 1. God will save. Know this that when someone approaches God about this compulsion, that He won't judge or condemn you, He Who created souls for love, will understand better than anyone. 2. God has a unique way with every individual. He may save you quickly or take you through a process . . which may take longer. So RELAX ! God Who made you and understands you, knows what to do with you. You only yield to Him. 3. Be conscious of this, that sex is poisoned, in our century especially, with germs, viruses and all sorts of bacteria . . so for your own hygiene (and those of others) . . . uuh . . compulsive masturbating is not the ideal, but is more hygienic than compulsive sex with other humans . . . for the mean time, until there will be a breakthrough. SOME TIPS: 1. Stay in touch with God, with regular solitude communication. 2. Slowly change your way of communication with people from erotic and seductive looks & touch & moves to affection and thoughtfulness (you don't have to be soppy though). 3. Find someone to whom you can reveal yourself who won't judge or condemn . . . even if it's with anonymous email conversation -- you need to release the anxiety and relieve your soul. Honest, sensible, understanding conversation is astonishingly healing and can awaken your soul. 4.The right companion, soul-mate, life partner who loves your soul, loves you for who you are and vica versa, meaning you also love this person that way. Sex can never fulfill deprived ness from this. You know that by now. That's why . . . 'closets' may get married to the opposite sex, have a reasonable sex-life, even like each other, but the compulsive one will still 'crave sex' with others, because the soul is still isolated, deprived & highly anxious. Understood ? 5. I.o.w. a man must be a man and a woman must be a woman and a gay must be a gay!!! Gays . . 'closet' or not, why get erotically involved with heteros? when it will only intensify the anxiety & deprived ness of soul to suffocation ? .. & also rob the other person of a fair share of life & love. Conclusion: When God rescues you there will be times of gentle discipline. With the breakthrough, your soul will awaken also to an increasingly deeper awareness of the beauty of creation. Your senses will hear & understand the slow dramatic dances of nature and you will feel the balance of being a significant part of it all towards a peaceful ecstasy.

I’m not an expert on history since I am a futurist, but I do take certain patterns in consideration and it’s necessary to notice when imbalances become outrageously and destructively injustly out of proportion. "These deaths have never been honestly reported by either the Allies or the German government." More than nine million Germans died as a result of deliberate Allied starvation and expulsion policies in the 5 years after WWII . From Bacques book: Soon after their victory in 1945, the Allies of World War Two began to commit horrific war crimes against the defeated Germans. Yet at the same time they set up the greatest famine relief initiative in the history of the world. Of all the peoples in the world, only the Germans were victimized, only the Germans were excluded at first, from these mercies. The relief organized by former president of the United States Herbert Hoover and by Canadian Prime Minister Mackenzie King saved the lives of 800 million people around the world, including, finally, many Germans who had been dying of starvation forced on them by the Allies, before the USA and Canada stepped in. in a little, statistical chart, that Bacque's findings may be seen in a single glance: Totals of Deaths of Germans. http://www.library.flawlesslogic.com/cm_rev.htm Minimum --------Maximum Expellees (1945-50) 2,100,000-----6,000,000 Prisoners (1941-50) 1,500,000-----2,000,000 Residents (1946-50) 5,700,000----5,700,000 Totals ----------------9,300,000-- 13,700,000 ------------------------------------ "Expellees" refers to the 16,000,000 ethnic Germans who were driven from their ancestral homelands in Poland, Hungary, Czechoslovakia, and elsewhere in Europe, at war's end. These included mostly women and children and elderly men who, with a few belongings in hand and running the gauntlet of deep, local animosity, set out upon the open road toward the rump state of Germany. "Prisoners" are, of course, the German POWs, the subject of Bacque's first book. "Residents" here refers to the German civilian population that survived the Second World War. According to Bacque, given the extraordinarily harsh conditions imposed upon them by the Allies (i.e., the British, French, Soviets, and Americans), at least 9.3 million and possibly as many as 13.7 million Germans, had, by 1950, needlessly died as a result. He writes: "This is many more Germans than died in battle, air raids and concentration camps during the war. Millions of these people slowly starved to death in front of the victors' eyes every day for years." Adding: "These deaths have never been honestly reported by either the Allies or the German government." It is this dishonesty, which is also part silence, part indifference, part anti-German animus, as well as corrupt scholarship, that Bacque intends to remedy with the present volume. [Image: Barefoot German boy scavenges for food; Hamburg, 1946] Weaving in and out of the central storyline is a number of recurring motifs. There is the exposure of the unabashed inhumanity of the Allied leadership: Roosevelt, Churchill, Stalin, and De Gaulle. But it is the U.S. Treasury Secretary, Henry Morgenthau, Jr., who is the arch-villain of the piece, the one who hatched the serpent's egg: the vicious, vengeful Morgenthau Plan for the post-war "pastoralization" (read: the de-industrialization and abject subjugation) of the German people. [Image: Henry Morgenthau, Jr.] Devised, "cancelled," then implemented via the punitive directive JCS/1067, the Morgenthau Plan wreaked havoc on the German economy and, by extension, the fragile European economy. Because of it, post-war reconstruction in Germany was delayed until late 1948; by which time millions of German civilians had already perished. By starkest contrast, the hero of the book -- and to whom it is dedicated -- is Herbert Hoover. It was Hoover who, in a spirit of Christian charity and true to his Quaker roots, led a worldwide food relief effort during the post-war era; saving, in the process, Bacque claims, probably as many as 80 million lives; a head spinner in a history book full of such daunting statistics. Hoover also lobbied for a food program to relieve the desperate conditions inside Germany, which, along with the Marshall Plan, helped put an end to the Morgenthau nightmare and rescued literally millions of people from a slow, agonizing death. Bacque also shines a hard light on the Western media, from the "New York Times" on down, for concealing or out rightly denying the Allies' complicity in numerous atrocities; on their craven betrayal of the anti-Hitler German resistance, the anti-Soviet Cossacks, and the Free Poles; and on the hideous cruelties they, as victors, inflicted on weak, defenseless, but fearless, German women seeking to help ill and starving husbands interned in Allied POW camps. Bacque's determination to shine a hard light on some long-hidden and neglected truths regarding the Western Allies and their often inglorious actions during and after World War Two will, as sure as night follows day, provoke the animus of the coterie of mythologists who have dined out on simplistic notions of Allied heroism and decency -- and exclusively German villainy -- for the past half-century. Recalling his bumpy ride following the release of "Other Losses", historian James Bacque expects that a firestorm will likewise follow the publication of "Crimes and Mercies". Up in Canada, in the letters page of the "Toronto Globe and Mail", a debate has already begun; and signs of bitchery, if not nastiness, are already evident. But what is encouraging is that Bacque also fully expects that the truth about this tragic page of German history will at long last be made known. http://books.google.co.za/books?id=Z5agAAAAMAAJ For those who needed revenge for the holocaust . . . this is far beyond revenge.

And the anger of God was kindled . . ., Then God spoke suddenly to Moses, and to Aaron, and to Miriam, "Come out you three to the tent of meeting. . . were you not afraid to speak against My servant, against Moses? " . . . and He went away . . the cloud departed from the tent . . . & check it out, Miriam was leprous as snow; and Aaron turned toward Miriam, and saw, she was leprous. . . Num 12:15 . . Miriam was shut outside the camp 7 days; and the people did not journey till Miriam was received in again . [Only sections taken from the chapter, u r welcome to read the whole chapter. Moses prayed for his sister & God healed her.] ----------------------------------------------------------------- This may be an indication of God's attitude toward racism. Moses having had a black wife also means that his kids were coloured. He & his brother were the leaders of the Levites and the Levites & their children afterwards were the priests. I like the connotation of priests with the coloured people. Sunday, July 26, 2009 BREATHING. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ THE FIRST PRINCIPAL.
