Update: The News

News

The top of the news is the war in Israel. It seems that all nations are against what Israel is doing. I think the main reason why so many Palestinians are being killed is because Hamas is not letting them out and hiding behind them. It’s a shame. But most Palestinians, even those who are not tied to Hamas, are also against Israel. They have been trained from a child to hate the Jews.

I think the war is going well, and I wish the US and all other nations would let Israel alone and let them fight their own war. I know that if Trump were the Pres. He would support them in whatever they would want and also aid them.

I am most disappointed in the elite colleges like Harvard who aren’t doing one thing to put down the antisemitism and marches. They are getting a very bad reputation as being very liberal and anti-Jewish. Sad!

Both Biden and Trump are on the hot seat. Biden could be impeached for his criminal history—I hope. It’s a different story for Trump. He is wrongly judged for so many things. The New York AG is making it her amusement to get rid of Trump. I guess she is trying to build up her own image and popularity with the people. Sad.

Prophetic Horizons

In just the last few years Russia, Turkey and Iran are coming together and making plans to war together against Israel. This is exactly what the Bible says will happen in the last days (read Ezek. 38, 39). This latest Israel/Hamas war is also prophetic, because it is bringing out so much animosity against Israel. It is shocking to me how many are declaring their hatred against the Jews. It is Satanic. He is working hard to eliminate the Jews. But that won’t happen.

My Reading

I just finished reading about William Tyndale. What a brilliant and dedicated servant of God. Now I’m reading about Eric Liddell, a champion Olympic runner and a missionary to China (from 1923 to 1945). He was such a humble man. He ran for the Lord and used his running fame as a platform to evangelize the lost. He really cared nothing for his own fame; he did everything for the glory of God.

This and That

I’ve been feeling sickly—trying to exercise more and eat better. I didn’t feel like going to church, but I still wanted to and so I did. And it helped me. The fellowship with believers always lifts me up. Church is so necessary for these times (Heb. 10:24-25).

It’s rather warm here is MN—in the 40’s! and no snow. Very odd for Mn.

What’s on my Mind? Biden, Jim Jordan, Faith …

First and foremost, on my mind is suspicion of Biden. I don’t trust him. He seems to be playing both sides. He says he is for Israel, but at the same time he is aiding Hamas and delaying Israel’s war effort. I think he is just trying to get votes from both sides. It is all political.

Second on my mind is why Jim Jordan is being stopped from being Speaker. I think he would make a very good speaker—but liberals won’t allow it. Do they know what they are doing?

Thirdly, and more personal, is my thoughts on the subject of obedience and faith. I give the credit to John MacArthur in his book, The Gospel According to Jesus. He points out that some say that obedience and faith should be regarded as separate, that obedience is works and should come after faith—something like that. But MacArthur makes the point that the two should always be together—as James points out, faith without works is dead.

And what is really coming to light for me now is that when we are disobedient to God, we are in sin; and so, this tells us that when we sin we are lacking in faith—or we are not trusting God. I know that we—even good Christians—will never be perfect in obedience and faith; but this is something we have to be constantly working on. I mean, we cannot let up in our effort to be holy and godly. And on the brighter side, when we are more obedient, God makes us happy (or joyful). And when we are obedient we have more hope and steadfastness and resilience in evil times. In short, obedience to God is the key to the victorious Christian life—because in our obedience we are trusting in Him.

Fourthly, as I trust and obey Him, I plod along with everything else. I have two books that I am editing. I am nursing a thing in my mouth called lichen planus (sort of a disease which apparently has no cure; but I am using mouth washes, aloe Vera gel and clove to try to get rid of it, or at least sooth it).

I am also reading two books; the one I mentioned by MacArthur, and a book by Bill O’Reilly, Killing the Witches. This book falls in line with the one I just read, Mayflower. The Mayflower arrived in 1620 and the witches tragedy occurred later at about 1680. I say tragedy because they were killing girls that weren’t witches at all. They were just suspected of being witches. It was much like the Catholic inquisition—burning Christians alive. Terrible!

My blogging has slowed down, but now that I am not working much, I will try to pick it up again.

Why is Biden coming to Israel?

Don’t be fooled. Biden and Blinken are coming to Israel not to aid Israel in the war effort. They want to stall it, and try to do everything possible to prevent Israel’s success in war. Much of Israel’s weapon capabilities are dependent on the US. If Israel is not able to function militarily, it will be because of the US.

Let us pray that Israel is able to somehow break free of the US. Or let us pray that the Biden administration is no longer able to intimidate Israel, that Netanyahu will find a way to break free of the US.

Is Biden for or AGAINST Israel?

With the very large US ships appearing and now with all the US trucks coming with aid, you would think that Biden is beginning to like Israel. But Caroline Glick doesn’t think so. She is the senior editor of the Jewish News Syndicate. She says that all the aid coming in the trucks are here to aid Hamas, not Israel, and not the hostages. And, she says that the aid is not only for the injured civilians, but to advance the Hamas’s military effort against Israel.

No, Biden and his leaders are definitely against Israel. Those ships and the trucks are here to aid Hamas and Hamas only.

Please pray for Netanyahu, that he will know exactly what the US is up to. He must stand up to Biden. He has declared war on Hamas and so he must continue the war effort. Israel must destroy Hamas as soon as possible.  The people have had enough time to get out. Now Israel must unleash hell!

Hamas, as you know has terrorized the Israeli people—even beheading little children; and did you know that Hamas leaders instructed their military to be sure to rape the women before they kill them? How savage is that! Hamas is no better than Isis! This is why Israel must destroy them all!

Now here is the article by Caroline Glick:

As Biden turns against Israel, Netanyahu must stand strong

If Netanyahu fails to stand up to the United States, if he buckles, the pressure from Washington won’t stop.

by CAROLINE GLICK, October 16, 2023

Caroline B. Glick is the senior contributing editor of Jewish News Syndicate and host of the “Caroline Glick Show” on JNS. She is also the diplomatic commentator for Israel’s Channel 14, as well as a columnist for Newsweek. Glick is the senior fellow for Middle Eastern Affairs at the Center for Security Policy in Washington and a lecturer at Israel’s College of Statesmanship.

On Sunday, U.S. President Joe Biden, Secretary of State Antony Blinken and National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan all announced that the United States expects Israel to permit “humanitarian aid” into Gaza.

The implications of this position are devastating for Israel. According to reports, there are “hundreds of trucks” lined up on the border in Egypt to enter the Gaza Strip carrying so-called “humanitarian aid.” These trucks, if permitted to enter, will not be inspected in any significant way. There is no reason to believe they are carrying baby formula and foodstuffs that will be delivered to the needy. There is every reason to believe they are carrying war materiel and jihadist fighters who have arrived to augment Hamas.

To the extent that there is food in the trucks, who will it feed? The hostages? The infirm? Who will the medicine be delivered to? The hostages? Will the fuel in the trucks be used in refrigerators to feed the captive Israelis?

Of course not.

Hamas is Gaza. All the “ministries” in Gaza are Hamas. All hospitals are Hamas. Hamas’s military headquarters is located under Shifa Hospital.

So whatever and whoever is in the trucks carrying “humanitarian aid,” all of it will be delivered to Hamas and will be distributed to benefit Hamas.

The idea that it could be otherwise is absurd. And the fact that the Biden administration is arguing this absurdity is an outrage.

Even if the “hundreds of trucks” are completely empty—and they manifestly are not—the trucks themselves are instruments of war. Their presence in Gaza will also advance Hamas’s military effort against Israel. They will augment Hamas’s capacity to kill and wound untold numbers of IDF soldiers now poised at the border waiting for the Netanyahu government to finally order them to enter Gaza.

Biden, Blinken and Sullivan—like their counterparts in Europe and the United Nations—insist that they want to give Hamas the trucks to avert a humanitarian disaster in Gaza. But their position is actually devastating for Gaza’s civilians.

By barring civilians from escaping Gaza to its territory, even for the purpose of transiting to third countries, Egypt is collaborating with Hamas’s war effort. By enabling Egypt to maintain its position, and demanding that Israel allow Hamas to resupply while calling that resupply “humanitarian aid,” the Biden administration is trapping the civilians of Gaza it claims to care about protecting. They will remain under Hamas’s jackboot. They will remain its human shields and cannon fodder.

Similarly, the United States is providing material support for Hamas’s propaganda campaign blaming Israel for the carnage of which Hamas is the sole author—in Israel and Gaza alike.

The United States is also acting in breach of binding international law. As professor Avi Bell of the Bar Ilan University and University of San Diego law schools explained in an interview on “The Caroline Glick Show” on Sunday, while Biden and his aides have insisted repeatedly that they expect Israel to respect the international laws of war in its prosecution of its war effort against Hamas, the administration’s positions in relation to that war are illegal.

New Covid Wave Coming

Whether it is coming or not, we know now what to do. We know that masking does not help, nor does any more shots. I think the best thing to do is let ourselves get it so we can get some immunity. I think it is also wish to just go about our normal way of life and refuse to be afraid–refuse the lock downs…if possible. At any rate, I will go about my normal business and will not just stay in my apartment. Being out in the fresh air is the best things we can do anyway.

Here is an article.

HERE WE GO: WHO Sounds Alarm Over New Covid Wave Coming This Winter

By Cristina Laila Sep. 7, 2023 12:23 pm

It must be election season!

It is all hands on deck right now to bring back Covid mandates. Mask mandates are slowly making a comeback in schools across the country. Joe Biden recently announced he will be wearing a face mask since Dr. Jill supposedly tested positive for Covid.

Los Angeles County may bring back mask mandates due to the new Covid variants BA.286 and EG.5 New Yorkers were told to mask up over the Labor Day weekend.

The World Health Organization sounded the alarm over a new wave of Covid.

“We continue to see concerning trends for COVID-19 ahead of the winter season in the Northern Hemisphere,” WHO chief Tedros Ghebreyesus said Wednesday at a press conference.

Update: As it was in the days of Noah

I can think of a number of interesting things to write about. But there is mainly just one thing on my mind: that evil is infiltrating our country, and the world, and the fact that nothing is being done about it. There are a few voices that are standing up for the truth (which I hear on Newsmax, and conservative radio, and of course from my church). But the overwhelming message is a false message that comes from the media and the Democratic party (the white house).

That false message, that worldly voice, is a voice that suppresses the truth about God and the way He made us. It is a voice that rebels against God and listens only to the voice of lust and of fulfilling our degrading passions. And so, it seems that wherever I go these days I witness the celebration of transgenderism and queers. And then I hear our own President support this evil!

And lately I see rainbow banners everywhere celebrating Pride Month. And I am reminded that this must have been how it was just before the flood when only Noah was found righteous. Yes, I think we are almost there; it is almost time to be rescued on the Ark before the world again is destroyed, this time by fire and wind and hail and earthquakes.

But praise God! We (all believers) will be rescued out of it—just as Noah was.

I feel so sad to hear how badly our former President is being treated. It is so unfair to treat him like a criminal when others who came before him did far worse things and got by with it. The things they are charging him with now are only to keep him from running for office again. And, as we know, the Biden family is getting away with murder. They are so corrupt! The Clintons, Obama, and now the Biden’s are so very corrupt. And they all have been selling out our country to China and Russia. Yes, I’m sure they know all our classified secrets; Biden has told them. And how much did they get? Millions, even billions! And we do nothing! They get away with it. I heard someone say today that we have turned into Venezuela. Yes, it was Guiliani that said it. He should know. Since Biden has been in office he has turned this country into Venezuela.

Now why is Biden and his team of mobsters so intent on convicting and locking Donald Trump up? That question is easy. It is because if he returns to office he will start revealing the truth about them. And, as the bible says, “Everyone who does evil hates the Light.”  And he “will not come to the Light for fear that his deeds will be exposed” (Jn. 3:19-20). 

I sure do not think that Donald Trump is like Christ; but I think he certainly can and will be used for God’s good purpose and for bringing His judgment to this Nation. And I think people are fearing that he can and will do it—expose their sins. I would so like to see judgment fall on the Biden’s. They are a crime family if I have ever seen one. God’s judgment needs to come to them. It is the best thing that could happen to them and to this country—to see justice done.

I was going to write a little on my own situation, but it seems that this topic has trumped everything. These are such evil days—as in the days of Noah. Is there no turning back? How can it get any worse? Yet it seems to be getting worse and worse.

AI is more in the news now. It will and already is being used for evil purposes. It will help students cheat on their assignments. It will be used for every immoral deed. I’m sure it will be used in the porn industry, and to bring more and more immorality to the world. AI will be used by every criminal, and of course it will be used in war. If you think that AI will be used for good and for peace, I kind of doubt it. Since humans are sinful and humans program AI, how can AI ever produce anything good? In fact, it will be AI that will give life and a voice to the image of the beast, and all people will be force to worship him or they will die (Rev. 13:15).

Biden’s Border Chaos

So here is the question: Is Biden’s border chaos an accident, incompetence, of intentional? Here is an article I found and put in on my blog page:

Biden’s Border Chaos Is Neither an Accident, Nor Incompetence. It’s Intentional.

Deroy Murdock / May 22, 2023

President Joe Biden became president largely by promising to Make America Normal Again.

The shambolic U.S.-Mexico “border” confirms how Biden shattered that promise. There is nothing normal about the coast-to-coast disaster over which he governs, thanks largely to his deeply abnormal definition of border security.

Under Biden, the southern “border” has become a giant, open-air staging ground from which illegal aliens bludgeon U.S. territorial integrity and national sovereignty.

U.S. Border Patrol agents apprehended 1,671,266 illegal aliens during President Donald Trump’s final 27 months in power. In Biden’s first 27 months, they encountered a breathtaking 5,249,144 illegal aliensup a skin-crawling 314%.

In fiscal year 2020, the last one that Trump fully controlled, 69,000 illegal migrants were detected on the “border” but got away into America’s interior. In fiscal year 2022 (entirely on Biden’s watch), “gotaways” hit 599,000—up a mind-blowing 768% versus fiscal year 2020.

My Great Discovery: I Can Laugh at the Evil World – Psalm 2:4

What does a Christian do in this evil world—with all the progressivism, with constant attacks on conservativism and Christianity, with government mandates, with wokeism, with all the fraud, especially with voting and in the media? If we think it is best to keep up with the news in order to be informed and to bring a positive influence, there will always be suffering—because the world is against us; it hates us.

So, this has been my dilemma and battle and cause of great sadness—to see the world falling down all around me, and to be inflicted as Lot was (2 Pt. 2:7-8). But recently, I have discovered a wonderful answer—some ways to bring help. There are a few of them.

My Discovery, Part 1 – I Can Laugh with God (from Psalm 2)

I will start with what God showed me in Psalm 2. Verses 1-3 kind of describes what is going on right now with globalism and the Great Reset, and all other such evil movements. We see it quite clearly here in these verses. They are taking counsel together against us Christians and all who are godly, and they are plotting to destroy us in order to exalt their own evil system—which eventually will become the government of the Antichrist.

But what does God do? What is His reaction to all this evil plotting against Him? He laughs! Because He knows how foolish they are and how all their plotting and planning will come to nothing. And He knows that soon His Son will take possession of all the nations of the earth and He will break them with a rod of iron in His New Kingdom which we call the Millennium (verses 6-9).

So this is my great discovery: since I am in Christ and I sit with God and His Son in the heavenly places (1 Cor. 2:6), I can laugh with Him at all that is going on in the world. God is not the least bit affected or disturbed by it, so I shouldn’t be either. And I can and should see how foolish the nations are in all their foolish plotting. And I, with God, can see how it all will end—when Christ rules the world in His wonderful kingdom of peace and love.

My Discovery, Part 2 – Being in the Word and in Prayer Helps

More recently, God reinforced what He showed me earlier in a much different way. He showed me that I can have some comfort and peace (from the evils of the world) in knowledge—knowledge of truth, of Him, and of His word. There is some knowledge to be gained in books that speak the truth (about many things); but a greater knowledge is in the bible and also in prayer.

My Discovery, Part 3 – In Bible Prophecy

When I study bible prophecy and thus learn many things of the future, this gives me an unbelievable edge on all the so called “elite” and experts in the world. I know some things they don’t know—because they regard the bible as foolishness. Hence, with this future knowledge I, with God, sit with Him and laugh!

This discovery was greatly reinforced one evening as I was sitting on my couch watching one of my favorite TV series, 24. It is a series of 24 highly dramatic hour-long shows staring Kiefer Sutherland, as Jack Bauer, where Jack and a cast of other CTU (Counter Terrorist Unit) workers are constantly, for 24 hours, trying to counter terrorist activities against America. I love the show, but it has been a constant stress to me, especially seeing it for the first time. But I discovered that seeing these shows for the second and third time is significantly less stressful—because I know what’s going to happen. So, it gives me an entirely different perspective. And this is how we can and should view what is going on in the world.

So, when I learn (from my reading) what Klaus Schwab is doing and planning in his Great Reset, and what John Kerry is doing in his climate change stuff, and what Stephanie Kelton I doing with her Modern Monetary Theory (that we can just print more money), and what President Biden is up to, I should not worry or be stressed out, and I can actually laugh at it all and be at peace—because I know what is going to happen! I have seen the movie, and guess what? God wins! And we win!

Update: Work, CNN, Biden’s Picks for Judge

After almost two months of no work, and also suffering from covid, I finally got some—two jobs in a row. It feels good to be back to work (I’m a painting contractor). I’m wondering how I will survive when I finally am fully retired. And it felt so good to be working, because in both jobs the people were so nice. In fact, on my second job the lady was sort of following me around talking to me. But I like talking to people, even when I’m working (I can work and talk at the same time). It shows me that people think I have a good listening ear—and that makes me feel good.

Anti-Trump Talk At CNN

On my first job (painting a bathroom and hall) the people (older people) had CNN on non-stop. It   was a little annoying, because about 80% of the talk was about Trump—anti-Trump: saying things like, that he and his supporters were guilty of the “BIG LIE.” That is the term they are using now to tell the public that when they say that the election was stole that that is a big lie.

But let me tell you something. Just saying that we are guilty of the Big Lie is evidence in itself that they are the ones lying. Also, the fact that CNN spends so much time bashing trump is also very suspicious. Yes, I believe that those at the top of CNN are desperately seeking to cover up a lie (their lies) by pushing the blame on us and on trump.

I don’t want to suggest that I know everything, but after getting my ears full of CNN for two full days, I have come to some conclusions. There is a diabolical reason why CNN is talking so negatively about Trump and his supporters and his family for so long. Here are three reasons: 1) they are trying to cover up their own lies by misdirection; 2) they are diabolically trying to convince the public that they (the press) and the Democrat party are innocent and that the election was fair (they are saying that it was the fairest election ever; what a joke); and 3) the way they are doing it is to try to convince the public that trump and his follower are the guilty ones, the liars.

I also spent some time researching a liar’s behavior. And in this case, it is the lying of an entire news company. Anyway, here is

The Typical Behaviors of Liars

  •  They are very rehearsed, that is, they are all together, saying the same things. No one gets out of step. They all use the same words.
  •  They repeat certain words and phrases over and over again for emphasis, such as “the Big Lie,” and just the name “Trump.”
  •  They talk a lot. In other words, CNN is constantly talking negatively about how Trump is lying, about how he is the cause of Jan. 6th, about his crooked business dealings, and much more—Trump, Trump, Trump. And so, what they are doing is desperately trying to relieve themselves of any guilt by pushing their guilt on Trump. And they are also trying to convince the public of this.
  •  They sound arrogant. A liar, in his effort to sound truthful, comes across as arrogant: very self-assured and extremely opinionated. And also notice how CNN news people sound so professional. I think that many of them have actually convinced themselves of what they are saying.

Biden’s pick for Supreme Court Judge

With Justice Stephen Breyer planning to retire, Biden is now making plans to elect a replacement. Who will it be? Well, since a Supreme Court judge is such an important job, we all would expect that he would want to select the most qualified person, right? And that person should be selected not by the color of their skin but by the content of their character.

But apparently, Joe Biden doesn’t believe that, because he has announced that he will pick only a black woman for the position.

Why Our Military Equipment and Weapons Were Left Behind

Yes, why were our military high-powered weapons left for the Taliban? We could have prevented it. We could have planned and carried out a better result. Why didn’t we?

I want to tell you why. In my opinion, it is because the globalists who are planning the Great Reset (or “build back better”) are really in charge of Biden and America.

They planned for this to happen!

They wanted a Taliban take over.

They wanted them to take our tanks and planes and guns. Yes, I think they planned it all out, every detail.

Why?

Because their ideology is to reduce America. Their ultimate goal is that all nations will be equal in power and easily controlled—controlled by a world dictator.

So America, in their belief, needs to be significantly reduced in power—militarily and economically and in every way.

And this is why they have installed Joe Biden. They knew he would listen and obey their orders. And they knew he would be an ineffective leader and a blunderer.

And know also that they have ongoing plans for future puppets. And they will continue to mess with our voting system and our voting machines. They plan to allow only the votes that they want to be counted—just like California does it.

Yes, and they plan to disallow forests to be managed, so that America has more and more fires.

And they plan for less and less people to be free. They plan for more mask wearing and for more mandates.

Back to Afghanistan and the Taliban. They, the reset people, whoever they are, are making plans for more and more of the Taliban and Al Qaeda and even ISIS to terrorize the world. And they plan for those animals to come into our country and terrorize and kill us.

And, oh yes, they also plan for groups like BLM to influence our government and our laws, to make us more lawless and so to make us more immoral people, and fearful people, so to destroy us! Again, so that we would be knocked down a few notches and made controllable. That is their plan.
