A new year coming

This will be my last blog of the year. My daughter is here from Alaska and has brought three of my grandchildren, they are staying at Marilyn's Mother's home in Birmingham. It has been a sad year and a sadder holiday season so far. I have been told that it gets better with time. Hope that is true.
I was glad that the tea party was able to change the House make-up, hopefully things will change for the better soon. I do wish all a happy new year and remember the reason for the season. See ya next year.

radio infor

Got moved today into my new place, smaller; but cozy. Heading to Birmingham to repair my renter's kitchen. I am still on the radio at WTWGAM1050.com Mondays at 3PM and Tuesday - Friday at 10 AM. As soon as I get back I will update my blog

Marilyn

On August 8th while sitting up in her favorite chair listening to gospel music, Marilyn passed away peacefully. Her service was the next Saturday at the Church of Jesus Christ, LDS in Gardendale, AL. There were over 150 friends and relatives in attendance and several speakers told of how caring and giving she was over the years, the music was great and was as she wanted it, short sweet and to the point and lasted about one hour. I miss her and will always have a place in my heart that aches for our being reunited in Paradise someday.

Arizona is being abused

Arizona is being abused by the drive-by liberal media. They are calling on MLB to boycott the state over something they have not researched. First of all Arizona has a right to pass a federal law to become a state law. It happens all the time, how about seat-belt laws, they were federal first then states picked up on them and the national law of Click-it or ticket became state law. If fact most state laws were federal laws first. These bleeding heart libs needs to get a life and let Arizona govern themselves. The States have a right to protect themselves. Mexico is sending their criminals to Arizona and Arizona needs to send them back. Phoenix is now the number one kidnapping state in the nation, in fact they are number two in the world. 28% of their State and County jails are illegals being held for the Feds. The Feds owe Arizona 2.1 Billion in incarceration fees and wont pay up. Arizona has to defend its self since The Feds will not do so. If this was China or Burma there would be Guns on the Boarder to kill all illegals as they crossed the boarder. All we do if give them medical care, food stamps, jobs and help them steal our money and rape our citizens. IT is time to send all 12 million home and make our unemployed take the Jobs they are doing to eliminate part of our debt. The bleeding hearts say They are poor folks just wanting a better life" The next time you are rob of your money and other belongings, just let them go as they needed your money, which is why they did it. There are millions waiting to be legal Americans in their home countries, send home the illegals now. God Bless Arizona.

"one God" or not

The One God

In order to understand the Oneness of God, we first need to understand what "One" means in the Hebrew sense and usage throughout the scriptures.

For example: "Hear, O Israel: the Lord our God is one Lord." or also translated as, "Hear o Israel: the Yahweh our Elohim is one Yahweh." In this verse, most cited by some christian that wish to prove that the Most High God and Christ are the same essence, different missions of the same God. However, if we go to the Hebrew/Syraic roots of this verse we find two important facts - first, Elohim, is used as a plural when referring to Deity (See Gen, 1:26). Second, when used in a singular tense, it is used as a collective noun. For example: Counsel or Assembly of Deity. One team made up of several members (See Job 1:6 and 2:1).

A collective noun is a unit composed of many parts. For example, "A Team effort was given in the project." The word "team" stands for a single team, but the word team indicates that there are several members of the team who work as one to perform the act.

In the above verse, Deuteronomy 6:4, one Lord is a collective noun; the Hebrew word ehad. This word when used always means : "One made up of others", For example: "...and the morning were the were the first day." Genesis 1:5. First = ehad means one of seven. and ehad one of twelve in Geneisi 49:16 "...one of the tribes of Israel." This is repeated throughout the Old and New Testaments. Look-up: Genesis 2:24 (1=2), 3:23 (1=3), Numbers 13:23 (1=Cluster).

In areas of the scripture where one equals one (single), the word Yahid is used, meaning "only." For example: Judges 11:34, "...and she was his only child." And, Proverbs 4:3 "...only beloved in the sight of my mother." Other examples are: Psalms 22:20 (only soul), 1 Timothy 6:16 (Speaking of the Heavenly Father), John 3:16 (Only begotten Son), Hebrews 11:17 (only Begotten Son), and Ephesians 4:5 (One Lord; however in the next verse Christ becomes separate from his father by the use of the same "Yahid". These verses (4 and 5) "one Lord, one faith, one baptism, one God the father of all things who is above all, through all and in you all."

When Christ said in John 10:30, I and my father are one - it is in the collective sense. I being one and Father being one, two persons in compound unity; separate but in the same in thought and action. In John 17:11 and 17:21-22 Christ is speaking to His Father and asks that we(body of believers) become one as He and the Father are one.n acts we are to pray as one - one accord. All of the foregoing are in the collective.

In Romans 12:5 "We being many are one (ehad)" And in Hebrews 2:11 "For both he that sanctifieth and they (Ehad) who are sanctified are all of one (Ehd): for this cause he is not ashamed to call them brethren."

John 7:16:17 "...My doctrine is not mine, but he who sent me....He shall know on the doctrine, whether it be of God (the Father), or whether of myself." John 8: 16:19:...for I am not alone, but the father that sent me,...the testimony of two men is true. I am he that bear witness on myself, and the Father that sent me bearth witness of me... ."

John 8: 28-29 "...and that I do nothing of myself, but my father who sent me...I do always those things that please Him." John 16:5 "but now I go to my way to Him that sent me... ." John 20:17 " ...Touch me not, for I am not yet ascended to My Father... . I ascend unto my Father and your Father; and to your God and to my God." The fifth and six chapter of Hebrews speaks of the separation of the Godhead as well.

So now you know that Our Father in Heaven, His Son, and the Holy Ghost are separate but the same in purpose and unity

born again?

BORN AGAIN

I was asked the other day if I was born again, I answered of course I was, as are all persons on the earth who have a body. Only in the Bible Belt will one ever be asked questions, upon being introduced for the first time, What church did you go to last week? or Are you born again? I currently live in Mississippi and when I first moved here I found that the ice-breaker questions when introduced to a person were almost always about ones religion or the condition of ones soul. Where I am from (Arizona) that topic may not come up in conversation for years after being introduced to a new person, if ever.

So to answer the question as to whether or not one has been born again, lets go to the scriptures for an answer.

First of all we were all born of the spirit Gen. 1:26-28. And as spirit children of the Father we were given our first commandment, "Be fruitful, and Multiply, and replenish the earth..." So Adam and Eve had to leave the garden in order to fulfill that commandment. There are those who blame Adam and Eve for all our troubles, but in reality without their failure in the garden we would not be here. We would have remained in spirit form forever. After the war in Heaven Lucifer and his followers (1/3 of Gods spirit children) were cast to the earth to wonder about without a body. When they figured out they had made a mistake in following Lucifer these spirits began to indwell in as many bodies as they could. Christ spent time on several occasions casting out such demons from bodies the had been occupying. Bodies are an important part of our progression, without them we can not return to the Father. (John 3:13). We have to accept Christ after gaining a body inorderfor us to return in spirit form to the Father and gain a new body.

So in reality we earthlings who have been been born in the flesh have been born again. Having been born first in the spirit.

Now if you come to the earth and gain a body without knowing Christ you will have the opportunity to accept Christ while in paradise and someone here on earth can be baptised for you. If you accept that baptism then you can be saved at the second-coming. 1 Peter 4:1-6 and I Cor. 15:29. We must be baptised, Mark 16:16, when Christ died he did not go to be with the father straightway, but when to Paradise first to set up his church so all persons who die without knowing Him as savior can accept Him while in the spirit, after first gaining a body through birth on this earth. When He appeared to Mary in the Garden He told her not to tough him as he had not yet gone to be with he Father. John 20:16-18, Later that day He returned from the Father with his new body and interacted with folks for 40 days, before ascending to the father once more with the promise to return again. Acts 1:9-11.

The term Born Again as it pertains to salvation was coined by a Baptist preacher in Georgia around 1835. It was used to refer to the slaves who had been baptised. Having been born "wrong" the first time and now through baptism were now "Born again." The term was then adopted by mainstream religions to refer to all who accepted Christ as their savior and were baptised. It very well could be a metaphor for baptism, but when Christ was talking to Nicodemus in John the third chapter he was referring to being born of the spirit in the pre-existence and then being born again in the flesh as he was, Christ told him that no man can return to the father without first being from the father. So there you have it, if some one asks you if you have been born again just say , "Sure, haven't we all?"

religion bashing

I was watching YouTube the other night and noticed that there are several videos devoted to the bashing of different Christian religions. there are over 20,000 different Christian churches around the world, all claiming to be the one way to get you to heaven. For one to bash the other is a waste of time and money. If fact to do so in handouts, mailings or on paid for TV and Radio time is a waste of God's resources. We should remember that 97% of all Christians are members of the Roman Catholic Church, and that the other 20,000 churches divide up the other three percent. It is some of the groups that try to make the claims that they are right and all others are wrong. Some of these groups make such a loud noise that they would lead you to believe that it is somehow the majority belief of all Christians. When if fact they are just the loudest. These groups use donated monies earmarked for helping others to bash other churches instead of doing God's work.

I do not give to any group that is anti anything. I want to know what they are for, what they are preaching, and if they are teaching their followers to love one another as the Father loves them.

Thee are five beliefs that separate Christians from the pretenders: 1. You must believe that the same God that created the Heavens and the Earths and all that are in and on them, came to this earth through as virgin and became man. 2. That this man established his church and taught his chosen leaders for three years. 3. Then took upon him all the sins of mankind and carried them to the cross and died so we might one day live with him. 4. That he rose on the third day, fulfilling prophesy of the Old Testament. and 5. That he returned to his father with the promise to return again to retrieve his followers.

For those in the 20,000 plus churches that believe and teach the aforementioned five things; and for those persons who believe in Christ, repent, are baptized, and receive the Holy Ghost will have a glory prepared for them as Paul promised in Corinthians.

Being anti-Catholic, anti-Mormon, anti-baptist, anti-everyone but your group is counter-productive and a misuse of God's money. Christ prayed that we would love each other as He and the Father loved each other, being one in the faith, lets try to do better and find common ground in our differences and reach for unity and not division.

Stranger Danger

There has been a lot of talk about the danger of sex-offenders living in our neighborhoods. A lot of mis-information from so-called experts about sex-offender being sick and not being able to control themselves. A lot of stranger danger stories on the Tele, and a lot of money spent on stranger danger programs and notification expense. The truth of the matter is this: 97% of all children under the age of 14 are sexually assaulted by someone they know and trust. Such as parents, relatives in or out of the home, siblings, coaches, clergy, and teachers. In the last ten years only sixteen children in the United States have been abducted and assaulted by total strangers. In 1006 311,000 children under the age of 18 were reported missing, only six were kidnapped by strangers and five were returned alive.
In 1996 the state of Arizona began committing sex-offenders released from prison to the state hospital for civil commitment to determined if they could control their action s to this date only a hand-full are still being held, as the courts have determined that the other 4,000 men and women could control their actions. The state of California was going to follow Arizona's lead, but after a study by the legislature in 1998 found that only 3.2% of the 100,000 released sex offenders had been returned to prison, ad only 5% of those on a new sex charge, they abandoned the idea as not being cost effective.
In 1998 The Arizona state prison director found that out of some 20,000 sex offenders released in the state only 2.8% had been returned to prison and 78% of those were not returned for a new sex crime. The B of P's reported in 2002 that only 3.6% of inmates serving at least five years, had been returned to the federal government prisons or a state prison for committing a new sexually related crime.
The Association of Psychology put out a statement in 2002 that earlier studies, that almost all professionals in the field of sexual behavior were using outdated data, and that the rate of re-offence was more like 20% until caught, then about 5% once released from prison.
In 2006 there were over 7,000 children (under 14) killed in the U.S. by drunk drivers over half were killed going to or from school or a sporting event. There were no documented deaths of children killed by a registered sex offender. It make more since to register DUI offenders and notify the neighbors of his or hers address so our kids can avoid contact with them.
We need to spend our limited tax dollars on keeping our children safe, by ridding the streets of drunks and worry less about registered sex offenders, who most likely molested a family member and will not harm a stranger.
