God went down to Georgia

When Russia invaded Georgia it triggered all my adolesent fears from the cold war era.  I was imagining sculls as I went into a fitful sleep.
 
But when I woke up I realized that if we look for how God is working there we won't have to be afraid. 
 
For me, thank God, it means I am 43 and not a private in West Germany with wierd looking guys on the other side of the fence.
 
You see, the Devil went down to Georgia early in August, but God has been there and isn't kicked out by the Devil.
 
If you read the Screw Tape Letters by C.S. Lewis you get the idea that war time is just as fertile a time for God to work as peace.  Maybe even more so.
 
Screw Tape Letters was originally a radio broadcast during the war in England.  So if you aren't a big reader it is a good place to start with 31 short chapters.  Then you can have an answer when someone asks you what your favorite book is.
 
If you didn't read the books in Highschool I don't blame you, cause I didn't either.  But you might like the Screw Tape Letters.

Ancient Boundaries at the Twin Towers

Jerusalem has a water shaft king David's men climbed to conquor the city from the hand of the Jebusites.  When looking at a map of the natural water shaft area I saw there were twin towers.
 
Well, make a mental note of that.  This is a women's intuition type thing.  In other words I am makeing an inductive argument rather than a deductive one.
 
The next twin tower is Masapequa Long Island.  A wierd tornado went from there to Amittyville on August 25, 2006 just before Hillary was reelected.  She had showed up in NYC just in time for 911 at the end of her husband's presidency.
 
The Bible teaches that we should not move boudary markers.  In Proverbs 8:29 it talks about them in relation to the ocean as a boundary.  Take note that both the WTC and New Orleans were built on land fill.  Could this be reminisent of tire with it's pomp and destruction?
 
The other side of this is the tower of Babel type idea.  If you see America as a be all end all then the twin towers may very well be the atheistic conquest of space showing no God.  And our fitting punishment was confusion that lead to the terrorist attack.  Babel means confusion in Hebrew.  The UN is in NYC too.  You see, God made it so you can run to another country away from totalitarian rulers.  Nimrod was a hunter, probably of men (Genesis 10:9).
 
Like I said, this is a women's intuition thing.  There is no "proof."  But I will say this, when I took a boat tour around the statue of liberty I could feel the spirit of Babylon trying to decieve me into thinking America it self is God's kingdom or something like that.  It was a wierd Disney World type feeling.

Was Jesus Black? Revelation 1:14

When I was in the Army I was in the baracks and I forget how we got on the topic.  But all I remember is one African American Seargeant was insistantly saying Jesus was black.  The situation was kind of tense since the room was full and I was the only noncolorful person in there.
 
Everyone was stareing at me to see what I would say. 
 
"It doesn't matter what color the car is as long as it gets you to where you are going I said."
 
It had to be one of the more memorable experiences I had in the Army because at that point we experience the African America worship phenomena called getting happy.  I mean, they were expression with various bursts or joy and subvocalizations that they liked my answer.
 
So what about this, was Jesus black?  The text in Revelation 1:14 says Jesus has hair white like wool and feet like brass.  This is about the glorified Jesus, so with a litteral answer yes, Jesus may have had tightly curled African looking hair or even does now too.  Did he have or does He have yellowish skin.  I imagine this would be normal for a Levantine Jew of the first century.
 
Think of it this way.  When Chinese make a chines picture of Jesus and Jesus is Chinese, that's normal isn't it.  And to me no matter how much you say Yeshua, his real name is still Jesus to me because English is my heart language.
 
So it's good that blacks think Jesus is black.  Mexican Jesus is Mexican.  Eskimo Jesus is Eskimo.
 
It is better than them rejecting Christianity because Jesus is not them isn't it.
 
And it is for people with the gift of church starting to know that Jesus didn't have an impressive appearance as it says in Isaiah 53.  Since He is God He really is everything in His heavenly exalted form.  Jesus is black, but He is also Chinese, Mexican, Jewish, Eskimo and anything else you could imagine.

The Boundary of Male and Female

Curious as to if Leonardo Da Vinci might be a hermaphrodite, I read a litte about those now called intergendered.  Orthodox Jewish writers speak of Tumtums in the Talmud, their oral tradition.  They say that a person is either male or female and you know for sure from their chromosomes.  However, because of birth defects they might be born with with what they call ambigous anatomy.  The end of their argument from an Orthodox Jewish perspective is medical doctors shouldn't change men into girls, even if they are born with undescended gonads.
 
But this seems like another cultureal battle ground to open up.  And there isn't just one Israeli transexual pop star, there are two! For some reason the Muslims don't really care and like the music I saw in Jewish paper.
 
Am I a boy or am I a girl? This seems like a simple question, and in our culture now and emotionally charged one.  But maybe it should be.
 
Jesus says that in heaven we will be neither male nor female.  Obscene is a greek word for that which is not seen that was done off stage during an ancient greek play.   So, there is something about heaven that won't be obscene then but is now.  To know everyone all about them with no boundary.  Perhaps this is what gays want.  Mabye they are ahead of their time.  But the problem is for now it is obscene to go there.
 
Men are men.  Women are women.  Let Tumtums be tumtums.

Boundary of Heaven and Deep

When a Jewish person wears tsi tsi, the strings that you see Orthodox Jewish men have hanging at belt buckle level this is about boundaries.  Strange, but part of mental illness is when the boundary of self is broken down and you don't see the separation between you and your environment.  In fact, Hindism might encourage this and people who are mentaly ill are considered avitars of this or that idol.
 
But it isn't just about a boundary for self, the 4 tassels on a traditional Jewish garment. It is also supposed to be a reminder of the heavens and the deep.  The original tsi tsi had a blue or turqois thread in it.  The sea reflects the sky, the blue.
 
The Christian generally thinks his way into a new behavior.  Were as in Judaism it is about smells and bells and deeds.  Could you say they behave their way into new thinking?  Maybe that's why they have such a low divorce rate.
 
You can see Orthodox Jewish men twisting the tsi tsi all around their fingers to remind them God is to be all around their life.

The Boundary of Life and Death

Hebrew scriptures in the form of wisdom litterature note that a live dog is better than a dead lion.  You know, the main problem we have is we live to only 70 or so years old.  But we focus on gaining money as if that were some kind of fortress to protect us.  But the Bible says that generally speaking, righteousness delivers from death.
 
Reuben, the oldest of Jacobs sons was to have the greatest blessing.  But he ruined it with instability.  He got into some kind of indiscresion with what in our culture would be the equivalent of his step mother (Gen 49:4).  This is where Jacob blesses his oldest son by reminding him of his weakness.
 
But in Deuteronomy 33:6 his blessing is to live. Wow! Is this the greatest blessing.  King David asked for life in Psalms.  This is actually a great simplifier.  Some people are for life, others have been seduced into death.  That could be a topic of another post, how people are blessed with life, but because of grace they are allowed to dabel in death and the devil without being instantly wiped out.  But that is the way it happens here on earth.
 
The main point is that God decides who lives and who dies.  You know, don't kill people.  These ancient boudary markers are simple but people do cross them in anger or panic some times.

The Bounds of East and West

In the context of forgiveness, Psalm 103 notes that God makes our sins as far away from us as east is from west.  The point is they are infinitely far from each other when compared to how far North and South are from each other. 
 
I was thinking about the blessing Joseph in Deuteronomy 33:17.  It has something about his horns Ephraim and Menasseh goreing the Nations to the ends of the earth.  The Hebrew word here says they push in unison.  This sound kind of bad for nonjews. 
 
One solution could be that the right horn pushed the righteous Jews and Gentiles to Jerusalem and the left horn pushes the wicked to destruction.  If you read my other blogs this happens with Jerusalem being in the East, and Easter Island in the West, the other horn that rises up.  The Hebrew word for horn here is a horn that is on an animal that you would expect to be violently raised up.

The Ancient Boundary Marker of Marriage

This is kind of a commons sense thing. But I have met people who asked if Adam and Eve were married.   They were trying to justify living together.  The main thing is the monogamy.  The state sanction of unions came later.  And of course, I have to say here because this is being eroded it was Adam and Eve, not Adam and Steve.

The Audacity of Hope Titus 2:12

This Bible verse says that our future hope teaches us to just say no to ungodliness.  The next verse is where one of the left behind books gets its title from because it talks about the blessed hope, the appearing of Jesus Christ.
 
Romans 8 mentions hope, Paul says we who are spiritual wait for what we don't see.  This might not be the best title for a book on liberation theology or the social gospel.
 
1 John 3:3 mentions hope.  It says that everyone who hopes in Jesus purifies them self as Jesus is pure.  O.K., this isn't even an exhaustive study of hope in the Bible.   But think you can see how Obama's gay rights and abortion stuff is really not Biblical.
 
Finally, there is 1 Corinthians 13:12 where is says now abide these three things, faith, hope and love, but the greatest of these is love.
 
Correct me if I am wrong, because I only heard this from the man who wrote the book on the faith of Obama.  But in a Medved interveiw he said Obama him self says volutarilly (not even pressed to answer by Pat Robertson or someone like that in an interview) that when his daughter asked how to go to heaven he not only didn't know how to do it, he also said he told his daughter he didn't even know if there was a heaven.
 
Obama's audacity is hope without faith.

Move FT. Deitrich to top of base closeing list

Even if Ivans didn't do it the FBI still says they know as a fact that the Antrax came from FT. Deitrich.  With all the base closeings, such a goof up as agreigious as this must be punished!  They need to be the first on the budget choping block.  We don't need anthrax to fight war.  This is crazy.  How do we know some idiot isn't stealing an economy sized barrel of anthrax as we speak. 
 
Isn't this the same place Bruce Olson was supposedly gas lighted into suicide or had acid droped on him in the 50s.  Isn't this the place where former Nazis tested nerve gas on Americans as guinea pigs.
 
Shut the place down!
 
They could at least change the name and totally restructure it if they say they have to have it.
 
We never used anthrax in battle and the only people it has ended up killing is Americans!
 
Enough already!
 
They might as well name it Ft. Mengela, or how about Adolf's Arsenal.

Hebrews 13:4, Let the Marriage bed be held in honor among all

They say satan will attack you in your biggest weakenss but also your strenght.  I always though of my self as a person who never gave up.  But this isn't good if you have to let go when your wife getts married to someone else!
 
I was back sliding with porno.  But God showed me in Hebrews 13:4 that I needed to honor the marriage bed.  The Greek actually says let the penetration be pure.  So I got convicted about masturbateing.
 
You see, if you don't forgive others you might end up doing the same thing or something similar your self.
 
Masturbation is the companion vice of pornography.
 
Fornication means sex machine.  I was doing the same thing.
 
If you masturbate it is actually worse than being gay because you can give your self over to continual acting out without needing any one elst to cooperate.  You become both sodomizer and sodomizee.
 
As John White points in a chapter of a book called sex on a desert Island out Masturbation frustrates the very itch it tries to satisfy.  You just become more isolated.
 
John Murphy in the Spiritual Warfare handbook calls it Autosexuaty and says the bottom line is that people are lovers of pleasure more than God.  He also says that masturbation opens your life to the devil.  He points out that every addiction starts out at a certain point in time and the most of the sex addicts he has counseled were first addicted to masturbation.
 
So it turns out that I was the one who was wrong.  When you are divorced it is unconditional. She was totally free to marry whom ever she pleased.
 
I have ideas about hateing divorce and being a one woman man, but that's my conviction.

Ossetia is near the West Virginia type area of Russia

What makes it even worse is Stalin was from this mountainous area, so strong man tacktics and militarism are glorified here.  Most people are muslim.  There are over 30 different language groups so it is complicated.  Someone has called it Metroiska Nationaism.  Like a metroiska doll has other little dolls inside it.
 
But, I mean, this place is hard to get around even now a days.  So it is back woodsy like West Virginia even worse.  
 
At the same time we were death marching american Indians the Russians were subdueing this area.  Islamic fighters called Chechens from this area are known as exelent fighters and have been caught in Afghanistan.  Resistance against Russia is normally lead by the Chechens if you look back through history.  I studied this area in school about 10 years ago.
 
Other odd facts: Dagestan to the east of Ossetia has the worlds largest sand dune outside Saudi Arabia.
This mountainous region has europes tallest mountain, mount Elbrus, the Nazis made a point of trying to climb for symbolic reasons in WWII.
Solsinitsen talks about the Chechens who were also deported to Siberia where he was in in His book Gulag Achipeligo.
Hundreds of years ago this area was home of the Khazars, the only Jewish kingdom to exist ouside of Russia.
The Caspian Sea has the world;s only salt water water fall going into it from the east side.  I wonder why it isn't in National Geographic.

Jessie Jackson Nazi Mind controller?

You are wondering how a black man could be a Nazi.  I am thinking that Nazi mind control is actually interchageable with satanic stuff you would likely see in the end times.
 
The weird stuff in the media probably just makes the average person feel depressed, as studies have shown.  Why?
 
Could it be more than and emphasis on the negative?
 
What am I talking about?  First, Jackson in his recent Faupaux was whispering.  The Bible says that whispering goes into a persons inmost being.  I learned in college at a radio station that whispering is like yelling in the way the listener percieves it.  The Hebrew word for witchcraft means to whisper.  The word Nakash for snake means fast and slow.  You see a snake that slithers till it strikes fast tries to be a snake you never see.  That's satan with getting into your subconcious with either maximal or minimal stimuli. Strike one on Jessie.
 
Strike two.  there is some kind of castration fear thing here that may be related to Proverbs 3:25.  Check the concordance your self to see how graphic it is.  Pithom was the place blacks enslaved the Jews, and it was probably also  psychic bondage by sorcerers.  In the middle east, they say words are legal majic.
 
Strike three.  Jessie Jackson cuts the ends off words.  Bush does the same thing.  Perhaps this is intentional, a Nazi mind controler thing to attack your subconcious.  All this cutting can make you nervous.
 
What is it about the name Jackson? Michael Jackson might be an elite mind controller (hanging his child out the window, his songs, the sister wardrobe malfunction, wierd skin problems and glove), but that is another a topic for another post.  I don't think Reggie Jackson is satanic or anything, but I imagine that Satan would like to use some kind of castration fear thing with baseball too.

Ideals

I wasn't listening to a Christian station.  But the song made me cry.  It was something a 16 year old girl might sing about her boyfriend. 
 
People in this word still have ideals and still believe in true love. 
 
That's what made me cry.
 
Doctors who really want to help people but get creamed by burocracy HMOS constraints.
 
Politicians who really want to make the world better.
 
I realized the cynical streak in my heart.  
1) If this girl who apparently really does love somebody can to it I can to.
2) If she can I can love my former wife.
3) If I can love my former wife I can love the people who tick me off every day (one I was about to see.)
 
The New Testament says do not forget your first love or something like that in Revelation with Jesus speaking to the Churches.
 
Hello?  Does anybody still believe in ideals out there?

Dr. Ivans: 3 choices

The media rush to judgment against Dr. Ivans tells you one thing.  Innocent till proven guilty and our civil liberties are being erroded.  Are voices that would defend Ivans afraid of retribution?  Has it really gotten that bad?
 
I my self was in the mental ward, so here is  my take on it.
 
We need to wait for a more complete picture of Dr. Ivans.
 
Question: Does any normal socially well adjusted person ever end up working in a government anthrax lab?
 
No, the place is full of sadistic technogeeks probably.  Guys who couldn't get a job in the civilian sector because of bad social skills where they could make alot more money.
 
So, if Ivans had guys he trusted, other schizotypal nutty professor types, do you think they might exchange monty python humor by email before 911?  Probably could do it!
 
There, we have put Dr. Ivans in context.
 
But as they say, dead men tell no tales.
 
Why did anthrax happen, 3 choices:
1) Dr. Ivans made it happen acting alone along the lines of what Alkida would want in time and place.
2) Dr. Ivans didn't do it and was framed.
3) Dr. Ivans did do it but was egged on and hired by creeps who would manipulate his weak mental state.
 
Which leads back to 911, 3 choices.
1) Government didn't make it happen/
2) GOvernement made it happen in a broad conspiracy/
3) Government let it happen.
 
Five safety nets that failed Dr. Ivans and the Gulible American Puplic
1) Nobody saw he was a mental case
a) coleauges
b) Familly
c) Friends
d) GOvernment screeners
e) Government Psychologists and his phsycian at yearly physicals (he was 62)
 
2) If he did it nobody stopped him from stealing the anathrax or even noticed it was gone.
 
Conclusion: Only a specially trained psychiatrist can tell the difference between a mental case and a person who is being gas lighted into insanity.  A third option, again, would be the psychiatrist detecting a borderline mental who is being systematically pushed over the edge.
 
I come from a military familly.  Both my grandfathers served at a local military base as either civilians or soldiers.  Me and my dad did too.  So I kind of know what I am talking about.  I mean, the guys I knew at Redstone Arsenal were patriotic engineers interested in military science. Red white and blue, apple pie and all that.  They worked on Bradley fighting vehicles, Rockets, things like that.  I'm sure anthrax wasn't on the top of their list for carrer paths.  Were talking about a weapon that doesn't discriminate between civilians or combatants.  In fact, no one ever expected it to be used except in a doomsday scenario.
 
Who the wants to sit there and think about that stuff with that?
 
Why in the world are we messing with that stuff to begin with?  Wasn't there a movement in the past to destroy it all for good?
 
Or was that small pox? Same difference.
