9-22-19, Heavy.com --  “Pittsburgh Police are responding to a medical situation in the South Side of Pittsburg PA. Confirming multiple hospitalizations and deaths. All of the male victims are wearing orange paper bands on their wrists. Have identified two venues that were using orange wrist bands last night. The victims were not yet identified, but, according to CNN, they are all middle-aged men (another report says one is 33 years old). Five victims found in apartment, one in elevator outside apartment and one on street at 26th/Carson. Police said on Saturday September 21, 2019, at 2 am they found men either unconscious or partially conscious."

According to WPXI-TV, police said there were “So far no initial signs of any drug paraphernalia or needles found during their investigation, and that “early indications” point to the problem occurring somewhere else, not where the victims were found.  Anyone who attended or has knowledge of a party or event in which guests were given orange wrist bands, please call Police at (412) 323-7141.  More details will be released when available.” More here

1. “so great” salvation - this adjective 'GREAT' is used only one other time in the New Testament, where it is translated “so mighty” (Revelation 16:18), describing a cataclysm so great that every island and mountain will disappear from the earth!
2. Not only is our salvation infinitely costly, but unlike everything else in our lives, it is unending: “And being made perfect, he became the author of eternal salvation unto all them that obey him” (Hebrews 5:9). e different.
3. “Beloved, when I gave all diligence to write unto you of the common salvation” (Jude 1:3). Our salvation is also common! This same word is applied by Paul to “the common faith” (Titus 1:4). Basically, it means “ordinary.”

Thus, despite the infinite and eternal values associated with our great salvation, it is also very common and ordinary! Salvation is for anyone, and whosoever will may come! Source​

5-7-19, Politifact.com --  Hunter Biden did hold a directorship with a natural gas company called Burisma Holdings in Ukraine, beginning in the spring of 2014 until April 2019 being paid $50,000/month. At the time it was reported by Reuters that Hunter Biden "would help the company with "transparency, corporate governance and responsibility, international expansion," and other issues. The company also retained Hunter's the law firm where Biden had been working, Boies Schiller Flexner. More here Heavy.com

Hunter Biden’s Burisma directorship attracted attention because Burisma was owned by Mykola Zlochevsky, a minister under Russia-friendly President Viktor F. Yanukovych who subsequently went into exile after a popular revolution. In 2015, Ukraine’s newly appointed prosecutor general Viktor Shokin inherited some of the investigations into Zlochevsky and his company. (Zlochevsky and the company have denied the allegations.) Shokin was ousted as prosecutor in 2016. [Former VP Joe Biden brags that he had Shokin removed video here.] Fox News here

In 2015 the New York Times suggested that "the credibility of the vice president’s anti-corruption message may have been undermined" by Hunter Biden’s dealings with the Ukraine company. More from New York Times, 12/8/2015 here

 Wow! ABC Actually Covered Corruption Concerns About Hunter Biden & Ukraine ...
6-20-19, ABCNews -- NewsBusters -- In June 2019 ABC’s Good Morning America devoted a nearly four-minutes reporting using actual investigative journalism, examining corruption allegations against Joe Biden’s son, Hunter Biden whose duties:

• help the company with "transparency, corporate governance and responsibility, international expansion," and other issues.
• The company also retained the law firm where Biden had been working, Boies Schiller Flexner.

​The position with Burisma came at a time when the younger Biden had been ejected from the military for drugs.  [NBC: Oct 16, 2014, VP Joe Biden's Son, Hunter Kicked Out of Navy Reserve for Cocaine] He then joined with Christopher Heinz (the stepson of then-Sen. John Kerry, D-Mass.) and Devon Archer (a Kerry family friend) in a string of investment and consulting firms. New York Times reported.

Ukraine wasn’t the only country where Hunter Biden’s business and his father’s diplomacy as vice president intersected. It also happened in China. [The troubling reason why Biden is so soft on China- here] ​Vice President Biden arrived in Beijing in December of 2013....Less than two weeks later, Hunter’s firm had new business, creating an investment fund in China, involving the government-controlled Bank of China.

UPDATE:
9-21-19, Guardian -- On Sunday afternoon, 9-22-19 President Reuven Rivlin will meet again with both GANTZ & NETANYAHU in an attempt to break the stalemate or face the possibility of a potential third round of elections in less than a year.

Rivlin holds a largely ceremonial post, but is responsible for choosing the candidate he believes has the best chance of forming a government. Usually, the decision is clear and often goes to the leader of the largest party, but the muddied result has created an impasse.

An alliance of the country’s minority Arab population could also play a role, after they became the third-largest bloc in the Knesset. Ayman Odeh, the head of the group, said that he may back Gantz, but even that would not give him a majority. More here

9-20-19, JerusalemPost -- Today PM Netanyahu has painted himself as a unifier. His Likud Party also released a statement Wednesday, 9-18-19 [day after election] about the possibility of a third election. Apparently Netanyahu's spin attempted to shift onus it to Blue and White making them look like the bad guys threatening the 3rd election when they did not. Currently, in Israeli political discourse - to shock desensitized voters, accusing one's opponent as a “third election supporter” has become the new way to demonize politicians. ​

On Weds, 9-18-19, PM Netanyahu was busy working on his current primary goal - preventing a Likud rebellion against him or at least postponing it. His second goal is to unite the 56 MK's in his block to prevent Benny Gantz from forming a new government; appears that he's succeeding. Gantz took Wednesday off to rest and consult with his advisers about how to move forward - as he's not politically seasoned - giving Netanyahu time to work. Now looks like he's paid a price for letting Netanyahu dominate the political discourse. They're now entering the post-election fray on equal footing and not with Gantz as the winner and Netanyahu as the loser.

Romans 9:6-9

9-20-19, * -- Clearly as we study Romans 9 we see that the Apostle Paul struggled with the fact that his fellow Jewish contemporaries/Israelites did not believe Jesus Christ was their long awaited Messiah. His pain over their rejection was so deep that he could even wish for God to cut him off - if it would mean the salvation of his kinsmen (Rom. 9:3). However, he did argue, that according to the flesh, it was never the Lord’s purpose to save every descendant of Abraham.

“According to the flesh” is the key phrase here, for Paul grounds his argument by distinguishing between two different nations or peoples that bear the name Israel. His basic point is that if God’s word of promise to save Israel (Isa. 45:17) meant that He would save every person of Jewish heritage, the Lord could be charged with failure; however, that is not what the Lord meant when He promised to save Israel, so the Jews’ rejection of Jesus does not mean God has failed. (Rom. 9:6)

God would not identify all of Abraham’s children according to the flesh as His own people, but only “the children of the promise” (Romans 9:7-9). Paul refers specifically to Isaac as the promised child, taking us back to the history of Isaac and Ishmael. The Apostle quotes from Genesis 21:1-2, 3-7, 12, in which God tells Abraham to see Isaac and not Ishmael as the heir promised to the patriarch (see Gen. 22:1-2). He also quotes from Genesis 17:19, 21, which identifies Isaac as the first fulfillment of the Lord’s promise to give Abraham many descendants through his mother Sarah.

Throughout the history of the nation of Israel, those who were Israelites by birth had to be warned again and again that they had no automatic claim on God’s salvation simply for being the physical descendants of Abraham and for possessing blessings such as the temple in Jerusalem. (Jeremiah 7:1-4; Luke 3:1-9)

Thus, Paul implies, any expectation that the Lord promised to save everyone of Jewish descent is unfounded.

There are some preachers who teach that God’s promises to Israel mean that all Jewish people will be saved regardless of whether they consciously put their faith in Christ. God pledged to save not “all who are descended from Israel” but only those who “belong to Israel.” [Romans 9:6] These who belong to Israel, we shall see, are identified spiritually; they are those who trust in Christ.

There are many people sitting in church pews who believe they are going to heaven simply because they are members of a local visible church. This is false teaching. Salvation comes to us only through faith, and it is only for those who believe in Christ. John 14:6

Most Liberal [Illogical] Wing of Democrats Is Struggling To Gain Power
5-2-19, 538.com -- The liberal, leftist, progressives [Socialists] in the Democrat political party may, over time, push the party farther left; but so far in 2019 they haven't been successful. The “Super Progressive” bloc of the Democrat Party is largely losing its fight with the party’s Old Guard wing. The far left liberal Democrats like the former bartender from New York Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez & the 'Squad' are not being accepted as they'd hoped. The New Democrat Coalition in Congress is a bloc of more moderate members [101] many are not particularly excited about single-payer health care, the Green New Deal or other lefty ideas. 

1 Corinthians 9:24-25
 
9-19-19, The Greek word 'crown' means “a badge of royalty, or a prize to the winner of a contest. In the Apostle Paul’s day, during the ancient Greek games, it referred to a wreath or garland of leaves placed on a victor’s head as a reward for winning an athletic competition. As such, in the New Testament, this word is figuratively used as rewards God promises to faithful born again believers in Christ; there are five crowns:

1) The Imperishable Crown – (1 Corinthians 9:24-25) All things on this earth are subject to decay and will perish; the apostle Paul was speaking about a corruptible prize of the wreath of leaves for the winner of a race; it would soon turn brittle and fall apart. Not so the heavenly crown from Jesus. (1 Peter 1:4)
 
2) The Crown of Rejoicing – (1 Thessalonians 2:19) “For what is our hope, or joy, or crown of rejoicing? Is it not even you in the presence of our Lord Jesus Christ at His coming?” Our reward: “God will wipe away every tear . . . there shall be no more death, nor sorrow, nor crying. There shall be no more pain...” (Revelation 21:4)
 
3) The Crown of Righteousness – (2 Timothy 4:8) “There is laid up for me the crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous Judge, will give to me on that Day, and not to me only, but also to all who have loved His appearing.” (Philippians 3:20) 
 
4) The Crown of Glory – (1 Peter 5:4) “And when the Chief Shepherd appears, you will receive the crown of glory that does not fade away.” Believers are incredibly blessed to enter into the glory of the kingdom of Christ Himself. For as Paul so eloquently put it, “For I consider that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory which shall be revealed in us.” (Romans 8:18)
 
5) The Crown of Life – James tells us that this crown of life is for all those who love God. (James 1:12; Revelation 2:10) “Do not fear any of those things which you are about to suffer... you will have tribulation... Be faithful until death and I will give you the crown of life.” This crown is for all believers who endure sufferings, who bravely confront persecution for Jesus, even to the point of death. We have the amazing promise that comes only to those who come to God through Jesus: “And this is the promise that He has promised us—eternal life.” (1 John 2:25; John 14:6)

Gantz Declares Win, Rejects Netanyahu's Call for Negotiations

9-19-19, WallStreetJourn -- Former Lt General and military chief Benny Gantz declared victory today in Israel’s election and rebuffed Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s calls for power sharing, as the country braced for weeks of political uncertainty at a time of rising geopolitical tensions in the Middle East. Mr. Gantz has yet to receive a mandate to form a government from Israel’s president. [Israel’s Channel 12 projected Blue and White leading Likud 33 to 31 seats with 98% of the vote counted.]Mr. Gantz vowed to lead a broad coalition from across Israel’s political spectrum, known as a unity government, ending several years of right-wing and religious majorities led by Mr. Netanyahu.

Prime minister Netanyahu conceded Thursday that he would be unable to form the government; but insisted he would lead a unity government with Mr. Gantz’s Blue and White Party ... that Gantz rebuffed. Mr. Netanyahu said in a statement that he was disappointed by Mr. Gantz’s remarks. More here

An Unlikely Winner in Israel's Election
9-18-19, 11:00 PM, TEL AVIV, Israel: ForeignPolicy.com—A day after voting in the second parliamentary election in half a year, Israelis woke up on Wednesday to an uncertain picture of who would be their leader. For the first time in the Jewish state of Israel, the country’s Arab Muslim minority could wield some leverage in the political process. An alliance of four small Arab political parties, is part of a left-center bloc that drew enough votes in yesterday’s election to prevent Netanyahu's Likud party from forming a governing coalition. Arab Israelis make up about 20 percent of the country’s population. Now, the coming weeks of coalition haggling, the Blue & White party may become a key bulwark for Former Army Lt Gen Benny Gantz if he becomes prime minister... more here

9-18-19, Business Insider -- Apparently the Blue White Party of Benny Gantz has more votes [one] than Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's Likud Party. The governing apparatus in Israel will now go into huge compromises to form a government. The two largest parties will now make deals with the smaller parties in order to form a government; just like they did in April and failed causing the second election.

Israel election: exit polls suggest result too close to call – live ...
9-17-19, 6 mins ago - Guardian -- According to the TIMES OF ISRAEL, Yuli Edelstein, the Knesset speaker and a senior member of Likud, says that the party will stick by Netanyahu. However, current polls suggest that neither Benjamin Netanyahu [Likud] nor Benny Gantz [Blue & White] will likely have enough seats and allies to form a 61-seat majority. A national unity government is possible but unlikely as long as Netanyahu is Likud leader because Gantz has ruled out joining a government with Netanyahu. More here

9-3-19, * -- I Am Unashamedly Politically a Bible Believing Conservative Christian. While I Strongly Disagree with Liberals Progressives and Conservatives on Most Political Issues, I Believe Liberals/Progressives and Most Politicians Are Terribly Misguided. However, I do Find Myself in Agreement with some Conservative Politicians on Some Issues, I Do Not Believe Electing Republicans Is the Answer to Everything. [..snip] 

 We learn from the Parable of the Weeds in Matthew 13:24–30 that Satan works to deceive the church by mingling his children with God’s children, often making it difficult for true born again  believers [John 3:3, 7] to discern the true from the false. The more we are familiar with Scripture, the easier it will be for us to detect the true Christians from the false converts.

True Christians are controlled by and have the Spirit of Christ indwelling their hearts (Galatians 4:6); they are no longer controlled by their sinful nature (Romans 8:9). When a person receives Christ, tremendous spiritual changes take place in them; true converts will indeed display the characteristics of genuine Christians. "The old has gone, the new has come!” (2 Corinthians 5:17)

For example, true Christians will understand the importance of abiding daily in God’s Word, which shows, not only how we can be saved from our sins, but how to behave and speak. (2 Timothy 3:17; James 1:25) True Christians will walk in the Light [Jesus is the Light] and obey God’s commands: "Whoso keepeth His word, in him verily is the love of God perfected: hereby know we that we are in Him." (1 John 2:5). [And when we accidentally slip; the Lord Jesus will forgive our heartfelt repentance.]

Once again the Democrat National Committee (DNC) has made it clear they prefer Godless voters or as they dub these individuals, the “Religiously Unaffiliated Demographic,”  calling them their “largest religious group within the Democratic Party.” [2 Timothy 3:1-2, 3-5; Psalm 1:5, 5:4-6]

“Come Lord Jesus!” Revelation 22:20

​*Excerpted and adapted full original report from Stevie Ray Hansen here and here www.HNewsWire.com

1 Peter 2:21; Isaiah 53:1-8; Matthew 26:57-68; Mark 14:53-65; John 18:19-24

9-9-19, Henry Morris, PhD -- Some have tried to pattern their lives after that of Jesus simply by asking in every situation, “What would Jesus do?”  [WWJD] However, in the context of our text [1 Peter 2:21], the primary “example” that He left us was nothing less than His own sacrificial death.

Note the context: “For this is thankworthy [same word as ‘grace’], if a man for conscience toward God endure grief, suffering wrongfully . . . if, when ye do well, and suffer for it, yet take it patiently, this is acceptable [also the same word as ‘grace’] with God.” (1 Peter 2:19-20)

Therefore, to follow Christ’s example is to be willing to endure unjustified suffering—even defamation and persecution—with grace and patience. But that's not all; we must also do it in silence! “Who, when he was reviled, reviled not again; when he suffered, he threatened not” (1 Peter 2:23). “As a sheep before her shearers is dumb, so He openeth not His mouth.” (Isaiah 53:7; Luke 23:9)

It's a natural reaction to want to strike back at one who has slandered or injured us and defend ourselves, especially if such an act was an insulting response to kindness. But such a “natural” reaction was not Christ’s reaction. He could have called “twelve legions of angels” (Matthew 26:53) to His defense, but He chose to suffer in silence. (Isaiah 53:7; Luke 23:9)

And why would He do such a thing? First, if He had not done so, we would have been lost in our sins forever. He “bare our sins in His own body on the tree.” (1 Peter 2:24) Second, He left us an example, that we “should follow His steps.”

​Drought, dams and dry rivers: Iraqi farmers are giving up hope
9-18-18, Alain Gachet -- Around 70 percent of Iraq’s water resources flow mainly from the Tigris and the Euphrates rivers, which both flow through Turkey. Once a water-rich country, Iraq is facing drought, a significant drop in annual rainfall, salinity, a decline in the level of water flowing into the country, following the construction of major dams in Turkey and Iran since the 1970s.

​​ The Tigris-Euphrates Basin comprising Turkey, Syria, Iraq and western Iran — is losing water just like God said they would:

"The Lord will dry up the gulf of the Egyptian sea; with a scorching wind he will sweep His handover the Euphrates River. He will break it up into seven streams so that anyone can cross over in sandals. There will be a highway for the remnant of His people that is left from Assyria, as there was for Israel when they came up from Egypt." Isaiah 11:15-16

"The waters of the river will dry up, and the riverbed will be parched and dry. The canals will stink; the streams of Egypt will dwindle and dry up. The reeds and rushes will wither, also the plants along the Nile, at the mouth of the river. Every sown field along the Nile will become parched, will blow away and be no more."  Isaiah 19:5-7

9-16-19, * -- The constitution of ‘Palestine’, a terror state funded by the rest of the world, declares that "Islam is the official religion in Palestine" and that "Islamic Sharia shall be a principal source of legislation." Sharia, or Islamic law, imposes the death penalty on homosexuality. That’s the way it is from Islamic Qatar to Iran, and Saudi Arabia to Afghanistan. So it shouldn’t have been much of a surprise when a gathering by a gay right group operating under Palestinian Authority rule, Al-Qaws, was met with severe threats.
 
The Palestinian Authority Org [PLO] police, a paramilitary terror organization that draws its personnel from supporters of Fatah, the core group of the PLO, warned that gay activists would be arrested and tried. A spokesman for the PA police said that gay rights were “harmful to the higher values and ideals of Palestinian society” and “unrelated to religions and Palestinian traditions and customs.”
 
Somehow, the Muslim terrorists targeting gay people decided their prosecution of homosexuals is the fault of the Jews. The modern state of Israel has as much to do with the Islamic position on homosexuality, as it does with the Islamic support for wife-beating or beheading infidels.

While the PA urged locals to turn in members of Al-Qaws and ‘Palestinians’ denounced them and called for their deaths, the Soros-funded gay rights organization jumped into action and blamed Israel. Claiming that singling out incidents of homophobia in Palestinian society ignores the complexities of Israel's colonization and military occupation being a contributing factor to Palestinian LGBTQ oppression within the larger context of Israeli occupation. [Apparently ignoring the annual gay pride parade in Tel Aviv that’s lauded to be the best worldwide!]
 
Al-Qaws is just coming off a $100,000 grant from George Soros’ Open Society Foundation. A decade of cash has poured in from the Astraea Lesbian Foundation For Justice and other charities. The real business of Al-Qaws was attacking Israel. In 2018 when Eurovision came to Israel, it claimed that gay rights was part of “Israel’s propaganda campaign”, and insisted that gay people should boycott Israel because the “struggles for queer and Palestinian liberation are inseparable.” [..snip]
 
Many politicians claim that gay rights cannot be allowed to distract from supporting an Islamic terrorist state against Israel. Likewise, anti-Semitism is a legitimate accusation when directed at Republicans, but not Democrats.
 
The ‘Queers for Killing Jews in Palestine’ can rename themselves, ‘Queers for Killing Queers in Palestine’.

​9-15-19, Today in John Haller's weekly update he discusses the peace deal being promoted in the Middle East and
what the Bible teaches about apostasy. 

He details how in this scripture:
"Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come, except there come a falling away first, "
2 Thessalonians 2:3

"Falling away" or 'departure' as in some versions of the Bible ... it does not mean a physical "departure" [rapture] - it means a change in position of thought understanding or belief. 

Apostasy does not refer to true believers who have eternal life and then fall away, which is a contradiction in terms.  Instead, it refers to those who profess to be believers who eventually reveal that they never truly believed by later renouncing the faith. [Hebrews 6:4-6]

The Bible warns us in 1 Timothy 4:1, “but the Spirit explicitly says that in later times some will fall away from the faith, paying attention to deceitful spirits and doctrines of demons.”

9-14-19, While Scripture gives no explicit command against cannibalism, we see from the beginning (Genesis 1:26-27) God made it clear that mankind is unique and distinct from the animal kingdom. Mankind, created in God’s image, has a value and honor above that of animals. The Old Testament closely associates cannibalism with the final stages of judgment from God, thus marking it as a loathsome and evil practice.

​Well, it's currently on the horizon of wicked mankind's apostasy and enmity with almighty God as follows:

Swedish Professor suggests cannibalism could help fight ...
9-6-19, MSN.com -- Mr. Magnus Söderlund of  Stockholm School in Sweden suggests a way to fight climage change - cannibalism. At a summit for food of the future (the climate-ravaged future) called Gastro Summit on Sept. 3-4, 2019, Professor Soderlund asserted that in the future we must “awaken the idea” of eating human flesh as a way of combating the effects of climate change. 

When asked if he personally would eat human flesh, Soderlund said, "I feel somewhat hesitant, but to not appear overly conservative…I’d have to say….I’d be open to at least tasting it.” He said that since food sources will be scarce in the future, people must be introduced to eating things they have thus far considered disgusting—among them, human flesh. He also includes pets and insects, but human flesh was the central topic.

In Swedish articles describing this new debate, the term “the human flesh industry.” In his bio, Soderlund states that his research focus includes  “consumer behavior,” “marketing stimuli,” “loyalty, emotions, justice perceptions,” “psychological reactions,” and “in a society increasingly obsessed with consumption.” People can be “tricked” into “making the right decisions.” More here from Epoch Times

Swedish scientist floats eating human flesh as solution to climate disaster ...
9-9-19, FoxNews -- Reportedly a Swedish economics professor, Mr. Magnus Soderlund from the University of Stockholm claims cannibalism as a solution to climate change. Soderlund’s argument for human cannibalism was front and center during a panel talk called “Can you Imagine Eating Human Flesh?” at the Gastro Summit. “Conservative” taboos against cannibalism can change over time if peoples simply tried eating human flesh. 

History of Cannibalism: A tribe in Papua New Guinea practiced eating their dead as an alternative to allowing them to be consumed by worms, according to the Standard. The cultural practice led to an epidemic of a disease called Kuru, also known as laughing death. According to the US National Library of Medicine, the disease is caused by an infectious protein found in contaminated human brain tissue. The practice of cannibalism among the people of New Guinea came to an end in 1960.
