For those of you that haven't heard a good gospel message in a while you'll like
what this man brings to the table, his name is Paul Washer.

Exodus 31:3 And I have filled him with the spirit of God, in wisdom, and in understanding, and in knowledge, and in all manner of workmanship,
 
A man of God. What does that mean?

It seems, from a study of our history, that the word/term "GOD" has been used, in the way a young child first uses the word/term "Mom", to discribe everything. They point at it, and say Mom. When man does not seem able to explain something, he has said, God did it, or, It's God's way. And as time marches on, we gain greater understanding, and we learn to use other/more words to better explain what we notice taking place around us.

Mom, is where the child notices/realizes he came from.

God, is where man notices/realizes he came from.

So, a man of God, would still/always mean, a man of "everything".


John 1:1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.

Thus; Our level of comprehension is proportionate to our vocabulary. This means generations in the future having a greater vocabulary, will be able to comprehend things we cannot.

Our relationship with words, is our relationship with God. As our vocabulary grows, so does our relationship with God, through the generations.

That means, that if someone was really an atheist, (person who believes that there is no God), he would be found not using words.

Helen keller, was an example of an atheist. Until her teacher took the time to get her to realize everything in our world has a word for it, once it is noticed and becomes part of our world.


Isaiah 45:22 Look unto me, and be ye saved, all the ends of the earth: for I am God, and there is none else.

Matthew 5:20 For I say unto you, That except your righteousness shall exceed the righteousness of the scribes and Pharisees, ye shall in no case enter into the kingdom of heaven.
 
Jesus, the bed, and equality among men.

We call some languages, "dead languages", because they nolonger add new words.

As with religion/politics, which does/did not want to except Jesus as a "new" man of God, when the facts show otherwise. This is just politics, trying to hide what their leaders did to Jesus, and their people by way of keeping them ignorant. For this, they are unable to be honest, unable to grow. And the things they must do, the things they must deny, in order to not grow, make them not nice people, in the eyes of those seeking truth.

Educated people realize/learn that a person's religion/politics has to do with where he was born, what he has been exposed to, mainly. That is due to controlled education, not free and open education.

From a real study of the teachings of Jesus "a" person is educated to that fact that we must see ourselves as part of one whole group, mankind. Safety is not in numbers, but in sharing with "everyone". If the idea/need for the bed is only used/known by some, the ignorant ones sleeping on the ground will spread their sickness they get to many others, and mankind suffers as a result. The politically minded person, would rather "rule in hell, than serve God in heaven". And that would bring us all down.

Politics likes to call/think of Christianity as a religion, but true followers of Jesus's teaching will one day be all there is. And that's not really a religion. It's a pattern of behavior, that mankind must comply with to continue. Divisions would keep us from being what we could be, what God would have us be, what true learning would make us. Mankind just will not work, unless it is as one. And the laws of reality, time, will not let it continue long any other way. We have learned enough to realize that if mankind is not out of the solar system, by the time the sun becomes unstable or goes nova, mankind will nolonger be. It seems that to live, it takes a teem effort. It seems that is a requirement to get into the party at the end of the universe.

Think big! Include all!


Matthew 12:25 And Jesus knew their thoughts, and said unto them, Every kingdom divided against itself is brought to desolation; and every city or house divided against itself shall not stand:

1 Corinthians 3:16 Know ye not that ye are the temple of God, and that the Spirit of God dwelleth in you?

1 Corinthians 3:17 If any man defile the temple of God, him shall God destroy; for the temple of God is holy, which temple ye are.
 
Deficit Spending

See No Deficit.

Or.

Death By Deficit.


Deficit - shortage, paucity, deficiency, shortfall; See arrears, debit, defect, indebtedness, poverty.

From a study of mankind's history, I have found Jesus to be recorded as having noticed the rulers/elite of a caste system as/for restricting the health benefits, associated with the use of beds and other furniture, from those which they intentionally systematically kept ignorant so as to maintain their rule over them. Their method of maintaining inequality amongst the people was by way of creating and orchestrating the direction of a deficit of knowledge. Jesus devoted his life toward teaching/emphasizing that free speech and equal education rectifies and prevents such practices by tyrannical governments. Now, all we have to do to avoid/defeat oppressive government is remember/recognize, learn and apply this lesson recorded in our history. Jesus only/always comes again when people have denied him.

Rebellion, in a world of that which has, and that which has not, consists of that which has not, demanding that it rule at all costs.

That which has, those well-educated, rich in knowledge, understanding, and wisdom are few in numbers, historically speaking, as well as in our present day, relatively, comparatively, and they acquired such status due to self-sacrifice and much labor correctly invested toward enlightenment. Through diligence and a more proper management of their time and resources they have received an inheritance offered by the previous enlightened, inhabiting prior generations. They have learned it to be more profitable to be seeking the guidance offered by the spirit of man indwelling all generations, rather than the flesh of man presiding in the present. They have sought the everlasting rewards offered by truth, rather than today's temporary earthly pleasures manipulated by politics. They have followed the advice given by, and devoted their lives to the spirit of our God, and have become so, eternally. They have become the man that God intended to create. And now glorify our/his creator forever and ever.

It began small, was loosed, and continually grows in his control over US.
To maintain this deficit/evil ruling US, requires more and more sacrifice of the lives of our men, women, and children.


That which has not, is so, the day before and the day after. For the spirit of our God meets not their eyes, and comforts not their flesh. They have no real interests and no real value, for they have sought none and acquired none, outside their own/generation. They have come to only glorify themselves in the present, and become so. Toward their goals of self gratification, history, those comprising it, and who would, becomes their hindrance. And because they would burn/destroyed/restrict access to the books/history/information that testifies against them/their deeds today, our God which lives from generation to generation does the same to them in the future. As we struggle to live not by deficit/counterfeit, they become no more, eliminated from among us. Eternal is without deficit. Praise be to God almighty.

Matthew 10:33 But whosoever shall deny me before men, him will I also deny before my Father which is in heaven.

Mark 8:34 And when he had called the people unto him with his disciples also, he said unto them, Whosoever will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow me.
 
This little light of mine, I'm going to let it shine.

Relating to our history, not being aware of, not recognizing the connection/association between Jesus and the mass utilization of beds, would be like not being educated concerning Henry Ford and the mass utilization of automobiles. The assembly line has helped share vehicles and furniture in the way the printing press has helped to disseminate information among peoples. Jesus concluded from his studies of mankind's history that humanity was on a path toward equality among men. It being God's will, that as man became aware of Gods blessings, that the knowledge of them, and benefits of them, be equally accessible by men. The concepts of acquiring personal control concerning God's blessings bestoded on mankind through patents and intellectual property are a perversion of God's will in our lives. And are revealed as indications/signs of corrupt governmental leadership by the example Jesus set and teachings he shared. It is for this reason the lessons in the Bible are hidden, undervalued and being perverted in industrialized societies. This is due to the mental reasoning accompanying having learned of the association between Jesus and his efforts toward the mass utilization of beds being absent, and not having its intended beneficial effect in our decision making. Our lives become detrimentally structured, weakened due to the lack of a historically accurate and sufficient foundation. And our ignorance concerning biblical teachings has been purposely encouraged and fostered by political organizations seeking to rule over us, and receive from us, in the substitute of God.

As a peoples, our value of that which is educational has diminished proportionate to our increased value of political reward. Our ability to distinguish right from wrong has taken a backseat, and recognizing monetary profit or loss now drives us. Becoming a member of a political group/gang and acquiring its blessings has become preferable to learning of and serving God as an individual. We render unto Caesar near about everything, and are found lacking any increase from which to give tithing unto God. Our existence now depends on the robbery and domination of others. We enslave neighbors, and our leaders have become political loan sharks imposing upon us perpetual debt bringing about and justifying such behavior. We gamble in place of labor. We die instead of live.

Unless we repent, any hope for the future would be false. The Bible tells me so.

Repent - to feel so contrite over one's sins as to change, or decide to change, one's ways; be penitent.

Job 42:6 Wherefore I abhor myself, and repent in dust and ashes.

Jeremiah 18:8 If that nation, against whom I have pronounced, turn from their evil, I will repent of the evil that I thought to do unto them.

Jeremiah 18:10 If it do evil in my sight, that it obey not my voice, then I will repent of the good, wherewith I said I would benefit them.

Matthew 9:13 But go ye and learn what that meaneth, I will have mercy, and not sacrifice: for I am not come to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance.

Matthew 12:41 The men of Nineveh shall rise in judgment with this generation, and shall condemn it: because they repented at the preaching of Jonas; and, behold, a greater than Jonas is here.
 
"We haven't any indications, what's so ever, society's have any sense." -Margret Mead

Animal life began in the ocean, came out onto the land, and then into the trees. After years in the trees, pre-man came down out of the trees and began to copy other animals. Through education, Jesus was able to reason that man was not made/able to sleep on the ground like other animals, and noticed the bed being used by some, but not all, to raise and insulate man from heat loss and other ground dwelling threats while sleeping.

"An individual in a bad society lives a bad life, an individual in a good society lives a good life." -Margret Mead.

Psalm 40:5 Many, O Lord my God, are thy wonderful works which thou hast done, and thy thoughts which are to us-ward: they cannot be reckoned up in order unto thee: if I would declare and speak of them, they are more than can be numbered.

Understanding Creation. Making sense of it all.



In the beginning was the word, and the word was with God and the word was God. Creation occurs due to belief. By God's power, man was created, and given free will and dominion on Earth. And our bodies are the temple of God, from which creation is now made manifest. Then came Satan. Created by men not recognizing God as their Creator, and feeling/experiencing the need for a god. Thus Satan was created by the grouping together of ignorant men using the power of God, in hopes of rectifying their inadequacies as individuals. Age and fear being factors.
God dwells in and creates everlasting truth by way of the individual. Satan dwells in and creates temporary falsehoods by way of the group. God influences our lives through individuals. Satan influences our lives through groups/politics. God recognizes the benefits of free will, Satan does not. God has learned and shares, Satan cannot. God strengthens, uplifts, and heals man, Satan weakens, sickens, and destroys man.


Technological progress is like an ax in the hands of a pathological criminal. - Albert Einstein


Religion is the effects of politics, in many forms and guises, attempting to control others by the control of historical knowledge/our inheritance.
Colleges, universities, and the military are the newest disguise of a religical ruling class/caste endeavoring to cash in on, control, and restrict what equal access, the library, and the militia offers a peoples. Their false pretense of power and authority are manifestations of our deficit of knowledge. By intentionally becoming a stumbling block, they strive to maintain and increase our ignorance to facilitate dependence upon them, offering a path of least resistance toward education and knowledge. They instill fear, causing many to remain in their homes, politically assigned communities, thus becoming humanitarily unsociable. This limiting their access to information to that of their controlled media/propaganda outlets. Their minds, their thinking, becoming indoctrinated with the darkness of the tainted truths of political correctness. Rather than gaining true enlightenment by way of exercising their free will, choice, concerning exposure to the information offered by the whole of reality.


One reading books, traveling and observing without prejudice, broadens the mind of the individual through educational experience. Then, conclusions can be drawn by the individual, based on memory of, reasoning of, and other mental attributes applied to his educational experience.
It is the individual acquiring knowledge from his creator that offers the progression and reformation of well-being to the whole of mankind, while becoming the greatest threat to a tyrannical ruling class control oriented opposition.


Historical data makes known to its perceiver the necessity of an individual man being intercessor between mankind and his creator in the process of receiving/acquiring divine revelation/discovery. Historical data also exposes the efforts of organized religion/politics as it robs, discredits, censors, and perverts the intercessor and his discovery in an attempt to maintain its false pretense of authority and necessity in our lives. The mere knowledge received and shared by the individual person chosen by our Divine Creator as intercessor, busts the union/religical organization for its attempts at controlling the sharing of education among the individuals comprising mankind.


Great spirits have always found violent opposition from mediocrities.
The latter cannot understand it when a man does not thoughtlessly submit to
hereditary prejudices but honestly and courageously uses his intelligence. -Albert Einstein



By God I have discovered Moses is famous/has shared that smoking is beneficial, Jesus is famous/has shared that beds are beneficial, and that our movement in the Earth's magnetic field is beneficial. Due to this, by way of politically minded individuals and organizations my life has become one of being discredited, robbed, and imprisoned continually. And so have us all. Where if I/we had been allowed/able to share, and been assisted in this sharing, we all would have, by now, received the enlightenment God intended for us. And this, by God, another discovery, another lesson to be learned by individuals. Or hidden by political gangs.


Will you, as individuals, help defeat our enemies, prevent much suffering, by sharing these discoveries equally among us, without political prejudice, now? Will you learn to live in the name of Our Creator, God, or continue to die in the name of politics, Satan?


Joshua 9:14 And the men took of their victuals, and asked not counsel at the mouth of the Lord.

1 Chronicles 10:13 So Saul died for his transgression which he committed against the Lord, even against the word of the Lord, which he kept not, and also for asking counsel of one that had a familiar spirit, to enquire of it;

James 1:5 If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God, that giveth to all men liberally, and upbraideth not; and it shall be given him.

James 4:2 Ye lust, and have not: ye kill, and desire to have, and cannot obtain: ye fight and war, yet ye have not, because ye ask not. 3 Ye ask, and receive not, because ye ask amiss, that ye may consume it upon your lusts.

Wrestling with God/ Our History.

Genesis 32:24

And Jacob was left alone; and there wrestled a man with him until the breaking of the day. And when he saw that he prevailed not against him, he touched the hollow of his thigh; and the hollow of Jacob's thigh was out of joint, as he wrestled with him. And he said, Let me go, for the day breaketh. And he said, I will not let thee go, except thou bless me. And he said unto him, What is thy name? And he said, Jacob. And he said, Thy name shall be called no more Jacob, but Israel: for as a prince hast thou power with God and with men, and hast prevailed. And Jacob asked him, and said, Tell me, I pray thee, thy name. And he said, Wherefore is it that thou dost ask after my name? And he blessed him there. And Jacob called the name of the place Peniel: for I have seen God face to face, and my life is preserved.

Job 22:30 He shall deliver the island of the innocent: and it is delivered by the pureness of thine hands.

The glory, the bravo, be to God. If I had any choice in the matter, it was whether or not to upbraideth, restrict, or sensor that which was inspired by the words shared previously in the thread. God's coaching. And the fear of God instilled by my parents, and experience in life thus far, would seem to have left little choice, to me in the matter. Thus we become a servant of God, and his will in our lives.

It makes me feel sometimes as, what I used to think of as a butt kisser. But I think I do catch glimpses, at times, and can feel the eternal benefits of such behavior. It is selfishness and jealousy manifesting itself in my life, yet I believe I am able to redirect it from being solely personally beneficial, and offer it to be used historically. If we would become giants, let it be so that those that follow us may stand on our shoulders to see further.

Job 32:8 But there is a spirit in man: and the inspiration of the Almighty giveth them understanding.
