My wife Has a clinicle diagnosis

She is officially bi-polar.

I suppose I could have not said anything about it but she just snatched 2500 dollars from our savings, which is half of the money we had to move our home when or if they develop the land the trailer park is on.

That does not bode well.

Most if not all bi-polar people are paranoid and have a major trust problem.

She is exhibiting all of them.

I guess I should be prepared for the worst in that I figure she will do something really crazy. Last time I kicked her out of my house this time I will leave which will lead to her loosing this place but then I won't care because I won't come back to her.

Such is my life.

I have had to look at the reason that I have been attracted to victems. And I have finally figured it out. That means that I won't be getting married ever again.

May God as always make my words come true.

Women. I love them but if the only ones I can pick are nuts then I am not interested.

Respect

I figured it out. I have really figured it out.

Thanks to the preachers sermon this morning.

Data from a current survey which was revealed in church this morning by our preacher reports that the number two need for a man is unconditional respect.

Woman in this country at this time in general do not do this. I have been pondering this but in a manner that was round the mulberry bush.

I want to expand this later but for right now I think I will just blurt it out.

Men took prayer out of school showing a disrespect for God. God gets back by causing women to disrespect men. Lots of divorce in this.

All the troubles in this country today can be traced back to that fateful decision to disallow prayer in public schools, which has led to women disrespecting men in particular their husbands and in a lot of cases mothers disrespecting their sons.

This article definately needs more detail and maybe re organizing but for now this is it.

In the beginning

Gen 1:1 In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth.


H8064
שׁמה שׁמים
shâmayim shâmeh
shaw-mah'-yim, shaw-meh'
The second form being dual of an unused singular; from an unused root meaning to be lofty; the sky (as aloft; the dual perhaps alluding to the visible arch in which the clouds move, as well as to the higher ether where the celestial bodies revolve): - air, X astrologer, heaven (-s).



776
ארץ
'erets
eh'-rets
From an unused root probably meaning to be firm; the earth (at large, or partitively a land): - X common, country, earth, field, ground, land, X nations, way, + wilderness, world.


You know what I think. God made space/time first and then made dirt or rather more correctly, matter. I'm sorry I did I say I think.....why that's out of character for me!:) Let me change that to; God created space/time first and then dirt. HA!


Gen 1:2 And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters.

The dust was consistent and even. The dirt had no form. Then the spirit of God moved over it. I...see.... like he created eddies in the dust. Cool. And to God...voila galaxies and stars and planets innumerable for men.

I want to say this again. Time is the canvas upon which this universe is painted. In my opinion Heaven already had space but to build a place for life as we know it God had to make time. Make time, heh heh. Sounds like some old cliche I heard.

The God of Hosts the creator of all that is, is one awsome God.

Keep your Friends Close and Your Enemies Closer

Bull crap.

I just happen to be one of those little exceptions to this little pile of crap.

People that think that they could control their enemies by being buddy buddy with them must want to live a miserable life.

How much misery can it be to be so close to someone you hate and despise? You would have to endure the hatred all the time.

I suppose that you think that I would go out of my way to make your life miserable but I wouldn't. Not worth my time or energy. I just keep on being as good as I can be to people mostly and frankly it takes to much emotional effort to do things that you know for sure others would not like. It is easy to be nice and hard to be mean. I guess you might say that I have lived the easy life all my life.
For you who want to be next to your enemies. If you love life as much as you say then why are making others miserable.

Don't you people know what peace of mind really is? Do you know how bad it is for your health to continuously subject yourself to such a high level of emotional trauma. Do you think you will live to be What,? maybe 80, 90 years old. Spry old person maybe? NOT!

I would bet that hatred costs you people 20 or more years of your lives. Your bodies were not designed to live like that constantly.

My son loves this word. Amazing. Simply amazing for people who want so much to live to spend so much of their life in more ways than one.... hating.

Amazing.

Isms

The world is so full of isms.

Paul the Apostle says," study to show thyself approved".

Where is the ism in this statement?

'Thyself' updated from King James era common language means yourself. Paul never explained who you were to try and please. The outward example of this though is being practiced in the people of this day approving or disapproving of people they install in there churches to be the leaders and pastors. The bigger the assembly the more credential they require yet I have noticed that many if not all the highly credentialed men or women have some glaring flaws.

For instance they can't seem to get out of there heads to preach anti-self pro God sermons.

Why?

I speculate because they find the Apostle Paul's Me-isms more palatable than Jesus service to God message.

Paul should have said,Study that you may be a better servant to God. The only approval that any man needs is the Father's who is in Heaven. When we get his approval we know it and none can take his approval away.

If God has decided to be pleased with someone whats it to the rest of the world to say otherwise.

In defense of Paul the Apostle I will say however that it pleased the Father that so many should and I mean truthfully so many should be forever saved to spend forever in paradise with him.

To this I have to say Amen and to note also that this is the amazing Grace of God and God making his sovereignty fact. Making the word's of his Son Jesus dominant in two ways.

Jesus says "another you would follow but me you will not follow". The only way you would follow any other would be if he was an extraordinary person of uprightness and righteousness. One who was plainly blessed by God and in whom was no guile and who you could tell beyond any shadow of doubt that every desire of the man's heart was to follow God. Paul fits that bill perfectly.

I see today a tremendous number of people following nearly to a tee what Paul taught especially in the areas concerning the old testament. Paul says; we are out from under the law. Not. At any rate the words of the Son are full filled by men following these principles. Blessed is the Son Jesus in whom it pleases the Father to full fill his every word.

Second. Jesus says that all blasphemes are forgiven thee. Paul clearly is preaching the opposite of what Jesus preached. Jesus said "I came not to put aside the law and the prophets but to full fill them".

Again the amazing grace and sovereignty of God reigns supreme here. So many people were saved that in some cities Paul visited even half of the population received Jesus forgiveness in a short few day's . I ain't talking about little ol' bitty cities either but the centers of business of their time. Tens of thousands of people. Amazing. Wow what a blessing. Could you imagine if a modern day evangelist went in and preached and say half of Duluth Minn. was saved in a day. that would be 40 to 50 thousand people. I have a hard time imagining it but I do believe it.
Was that Paul and his blasphemes or was it The God of Heaven the Father of the Son,Jesus by the Holy spirit. It was The most high God of course using Paul as his vessel. No matter the thorn in Paul's side nor his imperfections of any kind.

I don't know about other people or Evangelist's but I dream and day dream about being such a vessel as that. I hope I could reach out my hand and ask any one if they would believe that they could be healed by God that they would be.

I also have some other things I want to air out about modern day evangelists concerning healing but that is for another article. Maybe next one.

Why did the lonely Gunman kill?

Because people make it a sin to be alone, and instead of including lonely people or being nice or good to a lonely person they practice the art of ostracizing a lonely person,which only strengthens their beliefs that the world they know is evil and in need of destruction.

I have read several articles recently as have many other people but what I see is a subliminal demonizing of loners.

If I were going to speculate about that football I would have to say the primary background of this is that Jesus was a loner.

Jesus was the ultimate anomaly in this world and his followers after him are anomalies. Jesus loved unconditionally. No strings attached. In fact he died for the world. He died so that the world might be saved.

Are you willing to die for the world?

My wife was looking over my shoulder just now and in the next few moments told me that people around him tried to get him involved in activities and to include him. She told me that he didn't bite.

Maybe they didn't realize that he was possibly a victim. This world is incredibly cruel to victims. Victims become the most sensitive of people and will shell up much more easily than non victims. Their fight or flight systems are in; so to speak, defcon states at all times. They never really come out of them. No psychologist has ever truly figured out how to help these people. No set by the book method really exists but I do know of one real way to help ease their pain. Unconditional love. And I do know of one true person who has showed the most unconditional love. Jesus.

The best course to take with a person who is a loner is unconditional love. Not unconditional acceptance. Love. To show that you have to be literally unconditional love yourself because a victim can tell if a person is faking it. They have this very innate ability to judge whether a person is lying or not, so you cannot just up and say to them "I love you man". They will look at you like you are nuts. But if your life exudes unconditional love they will see this and know this. If you live what you say, they will also see it, and if you will give them some hope in that they are good enough to God then they will be encouraged to seek Life and Love not believing any more that it and they should be destroyed. They may never become the social people you want and people should not demand that all people be sociable. These beliefs on the part of men are also the cause of most of these people going on deadly rampages.

What then are people to do for a person who is self casting themselves. That is being a hermit in the midst of a crowd? Love crosses all barriers and bridges all gulfs no matter how immensely infinite. You won't be able to get to near to them physically but you can Love them.

I have a knack for befriending stray cat's. You can't go out and just catch a cat. If you try they will slice and dice you. Been there dumb that. Think of Love as food. I set them some food and then remove my self even from site. In fact I won't even watch them for many days. As they get used to the food being there and used to my scent. Then maybe I will talk to them. In time they come up to me of their own accord. I never do anything to them and forever I have to be gentle with them but you know what? I like being gentle with them. I yearn for it. The stray cat and I literally become friends and allies.

Did you know that that is the way God is with us? Coaxing us with Love. Feeding us but not watching us until we trust him explicitly. Becoming our friend and ally. Always being gentle with us. He yearns too wrap his loving protective arms around us.

Why can't you people ever get this principle? If God ever truly forced himself on us in the truth of his power we would never be able to count him as friend and ally. We would just be surfs. That is not God's desire for us and if God has provided an example by doing for us and being for us why then are we not doing the same for the lonely strays in mankind we meet?

Stop treating the strays in mankind a pariahs and start treating them with the Love that is of God. If I can get this stupid decrepit world to do this then let's see if God won't bless it instead of curse it.

How to screw up liars

Tell them the absolute truth and watch their heads start to spin.

It's like a deer in headlights.

I like setting liars straight. If a person has made a habit of lying and they think they really know the truth it always causes them to rethink their whole life. Nice thing about all this is it usually makes peoples lives better. Just don't always count the money as the measure of better.

Hold Your breath

This article needs editing but my wife wants on the puter so I will get around to it later.



This little ditty is about why John McCain is not doing so well in the polls.

No gumption. Makes people nervous. The American people are told to stand up for themselves(in rightness (righteousness)),not to be wishy washy. John McCain is like a blade of grass and people sense this. Even blades of grass don't want a wuss for a president. By the way it is not in the tone of voice. It is in the actions. Not in the perception of actions but the real actions.

I will put it like this. We can trample the truth all we want but we still want the truth.

I have a previous article both here and in my previous web site spelling out that liars don't like other liars because they just don't like the uncertainty of wondering when the other shoe will drop.

Democrats have the problem of the American people wondering what they will sell out next to the rest of the world to try and bring about this one World harmony thing they are trying to make.

Using nice little words like uncertainty really doesn't get it for me so I will reiterate it this way.
Their compromises with the rest of the world are killing people. Or how about this. Would you compromise your values with a third World country that has a proven track record of poverty and death. Non-rhetorically speaking that would mean that like it or not we would be bringing some of their death and poverty here as well. Sub-consciously; if you prefer, people inherently know this and are continuously unsettled by this.

Doesn't make sense you say? How about this one. The compromise also includes ignoring the plight of their people. Sound like the Democrats? Does to me. The Democrats have a Marie Antoinette attitude and we know what the people of France did to her. They keep ignoring the majority of people of this nation thinking that it is only the ignorance, lack of knowledge, and misunderstanding on our parts.
Their behavior is to treat us like mushrooms and the best they get is unsettling us, the worst is pissing us off.

It takes more than sound bite sized clever little ad quips to convince us different.

Let me give you a little hint of the needs that would be met if you did this; straight from the President himself.

The current fight between the Congress and the President over troops in Iraq.
The President says" hurry up and get the legislation on my desk so I can Veto the bill".
That got the blade like HAHAHAHAHAHA, from me. Why? Because I loved it. You mean he has some back bone after all?

I hope he takes that veto stamp and violently stamps that bill. President G. Bush may be decisive but he is trying to be nice about it. Just be decisive and stop trying to sound nice. Stop worrying about how you sound; that is worrying whether people are going to like you or not. To be President it is not about whether you please people or not but about pleasing God. If you please God then he will bring the people around to being pleased with you but you can never take the credit for the Peoples pleasure with you, you must continually give the credit to God. Out in the open and in secret.

Right now because he is not out in the open with giving God the credit his own support base is failing him. It is a matter of doing it every time he is out their. Over and over again battering away at the paper wall that wickedness has built up concerning peoples perception of him.

The reason the press are unable to truly attack his character is because he truly is an upstanding man. His main weakness though; that the world considers a strength, which it is not, is his unwillingness to say anything in ways that may insult someone. Truth is the world is offended by Christians just because they have about them an Aura of perfection and purity which is an outflowing of the Spirit of God upon them. A person will feel imperfect around a Christian because God with a Christian is perfect and the Master of all and plainly everything that has tied itself or is stuck with this universe knows this. In essence it is God with them they sense so no matter what a Christian does non-Christians will end up having un-reasonable issues with us, and they will of course vocalize them which may bring the less stable minded ones into action and of course that may include some violent actions. Never the less a Christian must stay the course in the strength that God gives them. If for no other reason so that the non-Christians will not have any excuses in that day of judgement. This goes for the greatest to the least of Christians.

In the perception department for the President. The Uh-uh-uh's that he does answering questions to the press makes it sound like he did not think of those things. I believe he has but I don't believe he has thought about how he would answer the questions. For the world concerning worldly stuff I believe you have to meditate about what words and ways you will answer. It is about God in which you should not meditate how you should answer because the Holy Spirit will give you the words and the wisdom with which to answer.With the world you can pre-practise and can your sentences but for Jesus you can not (intended(can not verses cannot(ain't that clever by God))).


Back to John McCain. He is trying to hide from bad people what he is about or either he doesn't know what he is about. That would make him running for office for the sake of power. In the words of an enemy of mine. Not Good.

If he is not running for the sake of power then he needs to get a sharper blade for a tongue than the Bakka Bat he is currently using. I do not mean that he should have an insulting tongue, but one that cuts to the quick of the matter fast. If I want to get kinky and be powdered, I'll run down to the store and buy a can of talcum.

One other thing. And this goes for all politicians. You got something to say about a subject. Back it up by providing data in simple to find formats so that the people can think for themselves. That by the way is what this nation is all about. In this country it behooves the Government to allow us to do our own ____ thinking. I sure enough don't want anyone else doing my thinking for me and I sure enough don't want to think for you. It irks me no end when I got someone else outside of my house saying 'you should this and you should that'. My momma don't even get away with that with me so why should I let another person of or in this; gonna pass away one day world, at any level tell me what to think. I don't do it to anyone and it ain't gonna be done for or to me. You wanna convince me? Cough up the numbers otherwise I will just treat what you say as hearsay,rumor or maybe a lie. Don't give me some crap fact you skewed your way, give me the facts. Don't give me some doo you puked up like your the momma dog(there is a very short 5 letter word for that I just can't quite remember off hand what it is---oh yeah)and we are puppies ain't weaned yet. We are Americans and we were weaned from that imperial snot 200+ years ago. Not that I don't have a modicum of respect for the tough to graduate for college but so many of the Graduates and higher levels didn't do nary one single day of honest to goodness labor. So too most of the workers out here you over educated dolts don't know crap about real life and what's even more horrifying your educated ways are just making things worse for people.

One more gripe. You got some ideas on how to tweak the Constitution. @#$%^%$%$ those right up your @$$. Take your foreign imperialistic ideas back to the country you got them from. Stuff sounds kinda ancient to me like as in Babylonian ancient. There are some verses in my Bible concerning Babylon and the spirit they ride in on and if my language got a little dicey........you really don't want to know what I think about those old ancient quacks. Nothin but expletives.

I just got done watching Robin Williams in Man of The Year in which he runs for President and wins. During his campaign he goes from a normal stolid boring candidate to making jokes about the issues facing us today and poking fun at the competition. We could use a little more of that from the candidates today.
OOOOh. Scary.
I don't think it would be a good idea to go around grabbing your groin during a speech but bottom line is you candidates bore us.
In the end it was a computer glitch that caused Williams to win but; and here is the refreshing part, he admits it and then relinquishes the win to a re vote when he could have said nothing and went on about his way as the court jester of Presidents.

I have noticed today in this Country that when faced with similar embarrassing situations nearly everyone opts for pride and lies. Surely people don't think that God will let this continue on for much longer. Because if it does then we are heading down an agonizing path to barbarity.

Our Government and leaders have led the way. Ain't that just grand.

I could spell it out but then I have a mild case of ADD and don't feel much like carrying on about this much more at the moment.

In other words nuff said for now.

Dull Ears

I have once written in my previous site that Jesus says:

Mat 5:17 Think not that I am come to destroy the law, or the prophets: I am not come to destroy, but to fulfill.


This being so then preachers who preach saying that we are no longer under the law are wrong!
Why then do preachers of the Gospel marvel when the congregations ears are dull of hearing?

They want people to be like Jesus but Jesus never preached against the law of Moses. Not only that but he was in perfect obedience to it.

Preaching sermons against the Law and the prophets and then wishing that the people would be more like Jesus is a contradiction in terms and may be the primary reason the body of believers does not grow as fast as it could.

Never the less the will of the Father be done.

You preachers would not be preaching against the law and the prophets if it were not the Will of God and I would not be telling you that you were preaching against the Law and the prophets wrongfully if it were not Gods will but truly what is God's desire for us in this matter. To obey the law just as his Son Jesus did and preach not against it like Paul the Apostle did.

Paul said it this way."We are no longer under the law". Ooops. I don't think he could quite figure out why he was so pestered by a buffetting demon. Mhaha. That is why! We recognized Paul as the first 2nd teer Christian evangilist and apostle given even the power to raise the dead but what a booboo.

My question is do you want to follow Jesus and do what he did or do you want to follow Paul.
You could be a Christian or you could be a Paulsian. Mhahahaha.

I think I'll be a Christian.

Paulsian.

That tickles me.

Gettin in the game

The guest speaker at our church: Ron Bishop, said it well this Sunday.

In God's Kingdom, God calls everybody to get out there and preach the Gospel.

Not like man: who says there are only so many positions that can be filled: on God's team, there is a position for everyone who says: "Jesus save me, forgive me of my sins".

Want a hint on how to talk about God? Quote the word. God's word never comes back void. God blesses his word.

In fact God's word is so blessed by God, that it does not matter who you are, or what you have done, or by what spirit it is spoke, nor the vernacular. It does not matter if you are a sinner or a Saint. It does not matter if you are a pagan or a priest. It does not matter if you hate the Holy Trinity (the Father Son and the Holy Ghost) or not. In other words it does not matter the motive behind the person or spirit whom speaks it, it will accomplish the good works that the Father intends for it to accomplish. God blesses his word!

I like the King James version myself.

Nano-tubes

What if:

Mankind did not pass into the tribulation as I have been whining about for the last couple of years. What then are we to do because it appears that our current economic infrastructure is depleting the easily accessed natural resources.

Go to wikipedia and read. Near the end of this article you will find the huge array of applications which will revolutionize the way mankind lives.

Nano-tube technology is the next generation of technology to provide for the needs of all.

People who think they are God

I have a link to a person on my side bar who wants you to say wow that's insightful but it is not. She goes around in her subliminal way dinging at every body she knows describing their faux pas.

In one recent article on" how to never be wrong" is a complete description on how to never deal with any issue.

That is not possible in this world.

In an other ; in which she tries to describe what she thinks a mentally deranged person is, I believe she is describing herself.

That would make her in part, a mentally deranged person trying to avoid dealing with any issue.

Omniverse

How to never be wrong. Many of the things that I do at least in person to person communications with people I guess to avoid dealing with some of their problems.....What ever.

Problem is how do you do this and still talk about the things that you need to talk about that are actually a requirement of being a citizen in this nation.

I am actually afraid that it may be impossible but never the less still gotta try to maintain the effort.

However Omni is somewhat offended by me but that is not going to stop me from linking to her site. Unfortunately she apparently has something goofy going on at her site that preempts linking to the particular article at the moment. So hurry up and get there because you only have so many days to read this one and I do think this one is that important.

OMNI.

Key words

Are you people wanting to get some attention and don't know how?

Have you got something to talk about and want to get it out there?

Then try to think the major things that other people might be looking for answers for and write your topic using key words or phrases.

For example. Romance and God. Justice. Insurance. Conservatism. People doing random searches looking for some kind of answer may very well decide to check out what you have to say on the topic and bink! You get a hit.

Maybe you have something worthwhile to say and maybe you don't but never the less you end up getting a little attention and maybe some valuable feedback that could help you tailor what you are trying to say.

Jungle birds

Warning will Robinson.

We have a love bird. They have been built to commicate across miles of jungle. If you put one in a cage in a little room and they descide to communicate with the birds flying around outside it wil deafen you(me). Ouch. Ouch Ouch.

Memory

Much to my mild frustration I have had about a dozen major thoughts on what to write about but I cannot seem to latch on to them long enough to get them in here.

I should say that I have noticed just like many other people who age that that is what happens. I suppose I might say that I have a lot on my mind. The question is can I keep it there long enough to espouse on it? The answer is not enough at this time.

Another story from my past

You ever do something trying to do what your supposed to do but, funny crap happened anyway?

When I was 18 years old and working my first job there was a 50ish guy who was un-showered but really a nice guy. We talked a lot and we got along together real good. His name was Mike but everybody called him Waldo. The only problem I had was the Foreman Dennis Knill an ex-Marine and Viet Nam vet was always hollerin at us for talking. He was of an old school that said "if your talkin you ain't workin". Well Mike and I would often work side by side tearing off roofs and stuff, or clean ups. Problem is I would be a workin, and Mike would be a talkin, me a listenin. And as God apparently would have it, crap happens.

The first time I remember something happening was we were up a 3 story house tearing off roofing which we had completed in a timely manner and were in the process of cleaning up the little nails that are used on cedar shake shingles. Mike was leaning hand in valley a yakkin(14/12 pitch roof,very steep), I took a swing with my hammer, I missed and whack! Hit the back of his hand with the claw of my hammer. Of course Mike says Ow! I apologized profusely. Luckily it drew no blood. I still get a little queasy when I think about it. Of course being of a perfectionist nature I had mastered the art of complete sensory observation by then. I felt it in my bones you might say. He forgave me but moved a little further away thankfully.

The next time, we were again up on a tall house and I got him in the leg with a potato fork. For the uninitiated if you don't know what a potato fork is, it is like a shovel only it has four very heavy duty prongs like a big fork on it designed initially for digging up potatoes. I hit him hard....scratched him. Ow! He forgave me.

The next time I was on the roof shingling.... I looked down and yelled and threw a piece of 90 pound rolled roofing off, Mike was cleaning up.......You can't imagine the horror I felt as the shingle I aimed to land 15 feet away flew like a guided missile only the target became his head.......

The next time.... Then after the next time. My God!!!! 2nd to last time he threw his hat on the ground. By now the whole crew was roaring. They new that there was no way this could be real. It was all coincidence wasn't it? The last time.....He was coming up the ladder after me. Everyone was laughing the foreman on the roof was meeting him at the top and the ground foreman was following him up the ladder. We were all laughing but to tell you the truth I was trapped. No jumping off of 20 foot high buildings. We finally got him calmed down.

From then on I would specifically scream and I do mean scream "Mike!", and he would answer "yeah", I'd say; "where you at''?, he'd say, ""I'm over here!, I'd say; "I'm throwing a piece down!"; and he'd duck and cover.

We got over it. At the Christmas party that year. I was surprised at how well he cleans up.

Anti-Oxidents

Makes me wonder.

I guess we just shouldn't eat anything:



CHICAGO (Feb. 27) - "Beta carotene and vitamins A and E, antioxidant supplements taken by millions to fight disease, may actually raise the risk of death, a review of 68 studies on nearly a quarter-million people said on Tuesday".



Or is it some group study from one of the other industries is engaging in a propaganda attack for money? I do get suspicious when I read somthing like this when most other studies say the opposite. Oh yeah wait a minute. The opposition says:




"The finding drew fire from critics who said it was flawed and based largely on studies of people who were already chronically ill before they were treated with the supplements. "




Yeah that's it; It would probably be better said that 95% of those chronically ill are still alive after starting a regimen of anti-oxidents. I know I know; I have a bad case of my glass is 95% full and yours is only 5% full. MWHAHAAAAAA.

Christianity The sinful city

The caption on a certain series of verses in my bible actually says Zion, the sinful city.



Isa 1:21
How is the faithful city become an harlot! it was full of judgment; righteousness lodged in it; but now murderers.

Isa 1:22
Thy silver is become dross, thy wine mixed with water:

Isa 1:23
Thy princes are rebellious, and companions of thieves: every one loveth gifts, and followeth after rewards: they judge not the fatherless, neither doth the cause of the widow come unto them.

What I want to say I am having a hard time finding the exact words to use to convey exactly and perfectly what I mean. I feel that it has reached a stage in my thought process that I must say it even if it is imperfectly said.

Mammon!

Creflo Dollar is saying that if you don't have money then you are not Godly or if you are not Godly then you don't have money.

Jesus had no material possessions. The Apostles had no money, so it is from a self centered spirit that any Christian professes that mammon is the center of God.

The truth is a man has money for the purposes of God but is not the be all end all indicator of blessings from God. Man needs to give God the credit for the money or lack of it and worship and praise him anyway.

If you say that a man has money and therefore he must be of the Kingdom of Heaven you miss the bulls eye(sin). If you say that a man does not have money therefore he must be of the Kingdom of Heaven then you miss the bulls eye(sin). These are not outward indicators that man may use as a bases to judge whether a man is a member of the Kingdom of Heaven or not.

Jesus said: Mar 12:43 And he called unto him his disciples, and saith unto them, Verily I say unto you, That this poor widow hath cast more in, than all they which have cast into the treasury:

You say that you cast 10% of your Gross into Gods tray? Jesus says that your still less than the poor old woman who gave all she had. In fact I reiterate; She gave more in the one little mite than everything every rich man ever gave, EVER! No rich man who stayed rich ever gave all in an offering plate.

You want to be blessed and to really discover what Jesus meant by this statement? Do you want to really discover that treasure in that Field?


Mat 13:44 Again, the kingdom of heaven is like unto treasure hid in a field; the which when a man hath found, he hideth, and for joy thereof goeth and selleth all that he hath, and buyeth that field.

I found that treasure in that proverbial Field but I didn't buy into that field. I bought it. In 1996 I sold all of my stuff that God told me to and then some and bought that field. Anything less than this is simply a compromise with this world.

Compromising with this world is like this parable: You have 3 glasses one full of clear water and one full of mud and one empty; you want to share some with another person; so you take the clear water and pour part in the 3rd glass and the mud and pour part in the 3rd glass also and give it to the other person.

The question I have to ask is: why did you give this other person a muddy drink?

The answer is: Because you sinned!

One more thing stop asking people (ie. me) to share muddy water with people. If you want to drink muddy water then drink your liquid dirt; go ahead, but don't ask me to. Also don't get pissy with me about sharing clear water as well.

There is no money in Heaven. There is no spirit of money in Heaven. There is no pride nor the spirit of pride in Heaven. Why would you people insist upon hanging on to the compromise beliefs to the great detriment of our nation and the world. The worship of money is the greatest human excuse our nation is criticized and hated for and the the critics are not wrong.

One day a person with money or success may be tested whether or not he is serious or not about serving God when God tells him to give up what he worships or not. The surprise is that most men do not know that he is worshipping the things he will be asked to give up. If he gives them up then he will receive more and be more blessed. If he will not then it will be taken away.

I know of these things because you see, I have been there on both sides of the coin. I speak from the blessing of experience. I can say both that I am an example of what to do and what not to do. I can say because I am supposed to. The fact is I have to say.

If I am obsessed then it is an obsession to be what Jesus wants me to be and that includes no compromise with this world.

The world says but you need money. 'No'- I don't. I need money if I want
G5304
ὑστέρησις
husterēsis
hoos-ter'-ay-sis
From G5302; a falling short, that is, (specifically) penury: - want..


Jesus has the last word in this matter. Get it or don't! Either way don't criticize me nor judge me for not caring if I have or any other man has money nor influence or not. In the end it is most likely that most of the rich will be least in the Kingdom of Heaven and the little old poor widows and Lazarus's will be greatest.

Jesus says:
Mt 6:1
Take heed that ye do not your alms before men, to be seen of them: otherwise ye have no reward of your Father which is in heaven
Mt 6:2

Therefore when thou doest thine alms, do not sound a trumpet before thee, as the hypocrites do in the synagogues and in the streets, that they may have glory of men. Verily I say unto you, They have their reward.

Mt 6:3

But when thou doest alms, let not thy left hand know what thy right hand doeth:
Mt 6:4

That thine alms may be in secret: and thy Father which seeth in secret himself shall reward thee openly.

Mt 6:5

And when thou prayest, thou shalt not be as the hypocrites are: for they love to pray standing in the synagogues and in the corners of the streets, that they may be seen of men. Verily I say unto you, They have their reward.

Mt 6:6

But thou, when thou prayest, enter into thy closet, and when thou hast shut thy door, pray to thy Father which is in secret; and thy Father which seeth in secret shall reward thee openly.

Mt 6:7

But when ye pray, use not vain repetitions, as the heathen do: for they think that they shall be heard for their much speaking.

Mt 6:8

Be not ye therefore like unto them: for your Father knoweth what things ye have need of, before ye ask him.

Mt 6:9

After this manner therefore pray ye: Our Father which art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name.

Mt 6:10

Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven.

Mt 6:11

Give us this day our daily bread.

Mt 6:12

And forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors.

Mt 6:13

And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil: For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, for ever. Amen.

Mt 6:14

For if ye forgive men their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you:

Mt 6:15

But if ye forgive not men their trespasses, neither will your Father forgive your trespasses.

Mt 6:16

Moreover when ye fast, be not, as the hypocrites, of a sad countenance: for they disfigure their faces, that they may appear unto men to fast. Verily I say unto you, They have their reward.

Mt 6:17

But thou, when thou fastest, anoint thine head, and wash thy face;

Mt 6:18

That thou appear not unto men to fast, but unto thy Father which is in secret: and thy Father, which seeth in secret, shall reward thee openly.

Mt 6:19

Lay not up for yourselves treasures upon earth, where moth and rust doth corrupt, and where thieves break through and steal:

Mt 6:20

But lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust doth corrupt, and where thieves do not break through nor steal:

Mt 6:21

For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also.

Mt 6:22

The light of the body is the eye: if therefore thine eye be single, thy whole body shall be full of light.

Mt 6:23

But if thine eye be evil, thy whole body shall be full of darkness. If therefore the light that is in thee be darkness, how great is that darkness!

Mt 6:24

No man can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to the one, and despise the other. Ye cannot serve God and mammon.

Mt 6:25

Therefore I say unto you, Take no thought for your life, what ye shall eat, or what ye shall drink; nor yet for your body, what ye shall put on. Is not the life more than meat, and the body than raiment?

Mt 6:26

Behold the fowls of the air: for they sow not, neither do they reap, nor gather into barns; yet your heavenly Father feedeth them. Are ye not much better than they?

Mt 6:27

Which of you by taking thought can add one cubit unto his stature?

Mt 6:28

And why take ye thought for raiment? Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow; they toil not, neither do they spin:

Mt 6:29

And yet I say unto you, That even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these.

Mt 6:30

Wherefore, if God so clothe the grass of the field, which to day is, and to morrow is cast into the oven, shall he not much more clothe you, O ye of little faith?

Mt 6:31

Therefore take no thought, saying, What shall we eat? or, What shall we drink? or, Wherewithal shall we be clothed?

Mt 6:32

(For after all these things do the Gentiles seek:) for your heavenly Father knoweth that ye have need of all these things.

Mt 6:33

But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.

Mt 6:34

Take therefore no thought for the morrow: for the morrow shall take thought for the things of itself. Sufficient unto the day is the evil thereof.
