Bible Verses: Dealing With Evil People
v44 "Ye are of your father the devil and the lusts of your father ye will do. He was a murderer from the beginning and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar and the father of it. v26 A righteous man falling down before the wicked [is as] a troubled fountain and a corrupt spring. v10 O full of all subtlety and all mischief, thou child of the devil, thou enemy of all righteousness, wilt thou not cease to pervert the right ways of the Lord?"

Godly Response to Criticism
"The LORD is far from the wicked: but He heareth the prayer of the righteous. The light of the eyes rejoiceth the heart and a good report maketh the bones fat. The ear that heareth the reproof [criticism] of life abideth among the wise. He that refuseth instruction despiseth his own soul: but he that heareth reproof getteth understanding. The fear of the LORD is the instruction of wisdom; and before honor is humility."
Proverbs 15:29-33; Ecclesiastes 10:1-4
5-29-20, Charles Stanley -- No one likes criticism, but encountering some is inevitable, so we need to learn how to respond in a godly way. Although we might be tempted to become defensive or angry, we must always remain calm and listen to what they are saying. The words may hurt, but great benefits come to those who carefully consider what is said.
If we refuse to accept reproof [criticism, scorn or scoffing], we'll limit our potential for Christlike character development and spiritual growth. Some of life's best lessons come through difficult experiences. Whether the criticism is valid or not, whether it's delivered with kindness or harshness, your goal should always be to respond in a way that glorifies the Lord Jesus. Remember that you are responsible only for how you handle yourself, not for how the other person is acting.
Every rebuke is an opportunity from God. While we are being mocked or criticized we should just be quiet and listen until the he/she has finished. Make direct eye contact to show attentiveness and respect. When your critic finishes, thank them for bringing their concerns to your attention, and tell them that you'll consider what they said. Ask the Lord if the accusation is valid. Let Him search your heart and either affirm your innocence or convict you. Study God's word to find answers to the charges made. It's a chance to let your Christian character shine by showing love to your critic.

If he/she is angrily attacking you, your respect and kindness become a powerful testimony. Criticism is also an occasion to humble yourself and accept the Lord's correction.

| Joe Biden's 'you ain't black' comment is voter intimidation 5-25-20, USAToday, Paris Dennard -- These are not gaffes. Democrats like Joe Biden are running scared because the Trump administration has been good for African Americans. The bigoted comments former Vice President Democrat Joe Biden made during his Friday, 5-22-20, interview with “The Breakfast Club” when he had the audacity to say "Well I tell you what, If you have a problem figuring out whether you're for me or Trump, then you ain't black. | As a black man who voted for Donald Trump in 2016, and plan to do so in 2020, no 77-year-old white man from Delaware has the right, authority or rationale to question my blackness or the blackness of millions of Americans exercising our God-given right to be free and exercise our constitutionally granted power to vote for whomever we want, even if they are Republican.

Practical Ways to Bear Burdens: Ours & the Brethren
The Apostle Paul said, "Know them which labor among you, are over you in the Lord and admonish you. Esteem them very highly in love for their work's sake. Be at peace among yourselves. We exhort you, brethren, warn them that are unruly, comfort the feeble minded, support the weak, be patient toward all men. See that none render evil for evil unto any man; but ever follow that which is good, both among yourselves and to all men. Rejoice evermore. Pray without ceasing. In every thing give thanks: for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus concerning you. Quench not the Spirit. Despise not prophesyings. Prove all things; hold fast that which is good. Abstain from all appearance of evil. The very God of peace sanctify you wholly; and I pray God your whole spirit, soul and body be preserved blameless unto the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ. Faithful is He that calleth you, Who also will do it."

- Be there. At times the best "method" of helping is simply to be present. During our darkest hours, we don't need someone who tries in vain to fix everything; we just need a friend.
- Listen. Don't attempt to give answers or tell people what to do next. Injured souls frequently want simply a listening ear so they can express what's on their mind.
- Share. Never parade yourself as someone who has all the answers; instead, allow your own pain and failures to help others.
- Pray. There is power in speaking people's names before the Lord. When they hear someone talk to Jesus on their behalf, healing often starts taking place.
- Give. Sometimes helping others involves more than a handshake or warm hug. Maybe they need something financial or material. One of the best measures of sincerity is how much we're willing to give to others.
- Substitute.You may know an individual who bears the burden of caring for someone else. If you step in and take his or her place for a while, you are emulating your Savior--He, too, was a substitute.

However, along India and China’s long 2000 mile contested border, that’s exactly what's been happening. Recently the saber rattling has prompted US President Trump to offer to mediate what he called a “now raging dispute” between Asia’s two major military and nuclear powers. Tensions along the two borders have been high for decades, with the Indian government reporting more than 1,000 mostly minor incursions by Chinese troops between 2016-18.

While many noted that India's move to "no first use of weapons of mass destruction" was a less expansive commitment than it had originally made, it was not regarded as a major shift.

Now With Jesus in New Pain Free Body
Christian Evangelist Ravi Zacharias
Is More Alive Than He Has Ever Been
"For we know that if our earthly house of this tabernacle were dissolved, we have a building of God, an house not made with hands, eternal in the heavens. 2For in this we groan, earnestly desiring to be clothed upon with our house which is from heaven: 3If so be that being clothed we shall not be found naked. 4For we that are in this tabernacle do groan, being burdened: not for that we would be unclothed, but clothed upon, that mortality might be swallowed up of life. 5Now he that hath wrought us for the selfsame thing is God, who also hath given unto us the earnest of the Spirit. v26 Last enemy to be destroyed is death."
1 Corinthians 5:1-5, 15:26
"God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away."
Revelation 21:4; Isaiah 25:8
"God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away."
Revelation 21:4; Isaiah 25:8
| 5-22-20, * -- Three short months ago, I received an encouraging text from my friend Ravi Zacharias. Now, as if in a blink of an eye, he has passed from this earth. Along with countless thousands, I grieve. When he wrote, he was reeling from excruciating back pain, but wholly unaware of the cancer diagnosis that would soon follow. Despite his suffering and his onerous schedule, he shared that he was praying for my brother, Rush, who also had just been diagnosed with cancer. Ravi was a unique Christian who presented the Gospel of Christ so cogently and winsomely. I first became aware of Ravi before I was a believer and when I was still struggling with doubts. I watched in awe as he explained during a television interview Christianity’s basic truths of Christ free gift of salvation [Ephesians 2:9-10] in a way I had never heard. He exuded a confident mind tempered by a humble heart. I remember thinking to myself, “Wow, I’d like to see any Christian skeptic listen to this man and dare claim that intellectuals can’t be Christians, or that Christians can’t be intellectual.” He was so obviously a deep thinker and gifted communicator. This brief exposure to Ravi was one of the pivotal seeds planted on my path to faith in Christ. | Ravi’s faith journey began when, at age 17, he found himself in a New Delhi hospital recovering from a suicide attempt. Someone read him Jesus’ words in the Gospel of John: “Because I live, you will also live.” At that moment, he immersed himself in prayer, promising God that if he were to leave the hospital, he would vigorously pursue God's truth. Upon discovering the truth of the Gospel, he spent the rest of his life fulfilling that pledge. Ravi had a heart for defending the Christian faith against challenges and taking the Gospel to unbelievers. He firmly believed that we are called upon to love the Lord not only with all of our heart, soul, and strength - but also all of our mind, as Jesus instructed. Contrary to cynics who dismiss Christianity as anti-intellectual, Ravi knew Christianity’s truth claims could withstand the scrutiny of rigorous intellectual inquiry, and he devoted his life to demonstrating it. He knew you couldn’t argue someone into the Kingdom of God, but he recognized that certain questions plagued doubters and that answering those questions was often an important step in removing obstacles to faith. He took seriously the Apostle Peter’s admonition: “But in your hearts revere Christ as Lord. |
| Always be prepared to give an answer to everyone who asks you to give the reason for the hope that you have. But do this with gentleness and respect” (1 Peter 3:15). Unlike some, Ravi didn’t ignore the last part of Peter’s teaching. He always approached doubters with grace. It is sheer joy to watch internet videos of his many question-and-answer sessions with university students. In every encounter, Ravi treated skeptics as he would a lifelong friend whose eternal destiny was his driving concern. You could see God working in these exchanges, which were never contentious and were always overflowing with good cheer. One hallmark of Ravi’s ministry is his credo that when anyone asks a believer a question about the Christian faith, the believer must focus on the questioner as much as the question. Ravi wrote: “I have reminded myself over the years to never forget that behind every question is a questioner and behind every questioner is a network of assumptions, hurts, struggles and often prejudices.” | The purpose is never to win a debate or humiliate the questioner. It is to offer the questioner a rational basis for our faith in Christ. We must try to understand that person’s mindset and tailor our response to meet him where we find him. As brilliant as Ravi was, he knew that even the best of finite human minds could not fully comprehend the infinite mind of Christ. He marveled at the story of Jesus explaining the Scriptures to men on the road to Emmaus in one of His resurrection appearances as “their hearts burned within them.” Luke 24:32 Ravi asked: “Who would not like to interview Jesus Christ? It is not possible to live without asking questions — and what better source for the answers than the One who claimed to be the Way, the Truth and the Life? [John 14:6] If one could only be face to face with Him from whom life comes, whom to know means Truth and to follow means direction, how delightful would be those moments when the most confounding questions of life are raised.” Ravi is now face-to-face with His Savior; our Lord Jesus Christ in a new pain free body, surely the Lord Jesus believes he was a 'good and faith servant.' Luke 19:17 And although he is gone from this Earth, his legacy and his indispensable ministry, Ravi Zacharias International Ministries, or RZIM, will continue. |
"Jesus has saved us and called us with an holy calling, not according to our works, but according to His own purpose and grace, which was given us in Christ Jesus before the world began, but is now made manifest by the appearing of our Savior Jesus Christ, Who hath abolished death and hath brought life and immortality to light through the gospel."

| 5-14-1948, ADL.org -- Following the defeat of the Ottoman [Islamic] Empire in World War I, the British assumed control of Palestine. In November 1917, the British government issued the Balfour Declaration, announcing its intention to facilitate the "establishment in Palestine of a national home for the Jewish people." In 1922, the League of Nations [since 1942 "United Nations"] granted Britain a mandate over Palestine facilitating Jewish immigration and encouraging Jewish settlement on the land. In 1936 the Arabs [Muslims] were opposed to the Jewish people returning back to their historical homeland and stepped up their attacks against the Jews. Following an increase in Arab attacks, the British appointed a royal commission to investigate the Palestine situation. The Peel Commission recommended the partition of the country between Arabs and Jews. The Arabs rejected it while the Jews accepted the principle of partition. | At the end of World War II, in 1945, the British persisted in their immigration restrictions and Jewish survivors of the Holocaust were violently turned away from their homeland while Jews continued to be smuggled in. The British concluded that they could no longer manage Palestine and handed the issue over to the United Nations. On November 29, 1947, after much debate and discussion, the UN recommended the partition of Palestine into two states one Jewish and one Arab. The Jews accepted the UN resolution while the Arabs rejected it. [...] The British mandate over Palestine officially terminated at midnight, May 14, 1948. Israel's first Prime Minister David Ben-Gurion proclaimed the re-creation of the State of Israel. On May 15, 1948 the USA, under Democrat Pres Truman, recognized the State of Israel and soon after also the Soviet Union. |

Is USA Sec State Mike Pompeo in Israel to Bless Israel Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's Judea & Samaria [aka West Bank] Annexation Plan?

Critics say the trip is little more than a chance to bestow the United States’ blessing on such a move.

Looking for that blessed hope and the glorious appearing of the great God and our Savior Jesus Christ.”
Romans 13:11; James 5:8; 1 Peter 4:7; 1 Thessalonians 2:19; Titus 2:13; 1 Cor 15:51-52, Rev 11:15
| 5-24-20, Scripture tells us that "The coming of the Lord is at hand;" but thousands of years have passed without the Lord’s coming. We must remember that one thousand years are like one day to God (Psalm 90:4; 2 Peter 3:8). The rapture will happen without warning at any time and believers in the Lord Jesus must be ready at all time. Certain current events cause us to believe we are near the Lord’s trumpet call and that the rapture of the church is ‘at hand:’
| The promotion of peace and safety in Israel is a major sign of the end times (Revelation 3:10; 1 Thessalonians 5:3) and President Trump's peace proposal has accelerated the unrest in the Jewish state. The good news is that in the Old Testament the prophet Joel tells us a day of reckoning is coming - the Day of the Lord is coming and surely it is near. (Joel 3:2, 21; Psalm 9:11-12; 2 Peter 3:10, 9) God gives believers peace and offers hope to individuals that do not know the Savior Jesus Christ (John 14:6; Hebrews 6:4, 6). Truly accepting Jesus as Lord and Savior - becoming ‘born again’ - is the only way to be saved (John 3:3, 7, 14:6; Acts 4:12; Titus 2:13). Salvation is being confident that we are trusting in Jesus alone and that we have repented of our sins [Luke 13:3; Joel 2:11-13). When we are God’s children it matters not what man can do to us; Jesus said, ‘Fear not!' [Psalm 56:11; Luke 12:5] Today is the day of salvation; now's the time to act. [2 Corinthians 6:2]] |
| Big Brother is Watching Us: New Contact Tracing Tactic 5-17-20, RouteFifty -- Some USA state and local governments are deploying a tactic known as 'contact tracing' to monitor American citizens. And if there's a connection to a positive virus case, it would require businesses to collect data about their customers and turn it over to health departments. It's raising privacy concerns. [..] The U.S. Supreme Court ruling in Carpenter v. United States, established greater digital privacy rights protections. County attorneys have been asked to explain why plaintiffs would not have standing to challenge the third-party disclosure of their personal information. One said that when customers enter a public business, their expectation of privacy is diminished. “You cannot voluntarily enter a place where there are people around and claim it is private.” Another countered: “You don’t give up your rights when you venture out into the public. You still have Fourth Amendment rights.” | Big Brother Wants To Track Your Location And Health Data 4-16-20, NBC -- Privacy advocates are watching closely the proposed 'contact tracking' intentions of US governments. ... longtime public health strategy, “contact tracing,” involves identifying individuals who have contracted the covid virus [..] The stated purpose is for the public health officials to be better equipped to track who has the coronavirus and warn those who have been in contact so they can self-isolate. Also, state and local governments can determine whether stay-at-home orders are effective pinpointing emerging hot spots. However, privacy experts say these measures should be taken only if responsible consumer protection policies are put in place: obtaining clear consent from users, ensuring public presentation of data remains anonymous and implementing limits on what data is gathered and how long it is held. Many admit that after this crisis ends, it will be a struggle to recover the protections and privacy -- once lost it stays lost. |
Pilgrims on the Earth
"Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down His life for His friends. These all died in faith, not having received the promises, but having seen them afar off, and were persuaded of them, embraced them, confessed that they were strangers and pilgrims on the earth. For they that say such things declare plainly that they seek a country."
John 15:13; Hebrews 11:13-14
In America we annually celebrate, honor and remember the sacrifices of the many thousands of soldiers who sacrificed their lives for their 'friends.' We call it Memorial Day.
5-25-20, Henry Morris, PhD -- In Hebrews 11:13-14 we learn the heart-touching testimony of the great “heroes of faith.” The experiences of all these godly men and women of the past are outlined as an example for us as we pass through the years of our own “pilgrimage” on the earth.
“Wherefore seeing we also are compassed about with so great a cloud of witnesses, let us…run with patience the race that is set before us.” Hebrews 12:1
On Memorial Day in the USA, we remember in a special way those who died in defense of our own country. They had seen its promises and embraced them and were willing to die for them. Many of those were also Christians, and they loved their country, especially because of its unique Christian heritage and its freedom to practice and propagate their faith.
As we remember them, we surely must remember, with even greater love and appreciation, the One the Lord Jesus Christ, who made the greatest sacrifice of all:
“Looking unto Jesus the author and Finisher of our faith; Who for the joy that was set before Him endured the cross, despising the shame and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God.”

Doctors [500+] Sign Letter to President Trump
Proclaiming Death & Despair Caused BY Shutdown
| 5-25-20, WesternJournal * -- With unemployment caused by the government's dictate to shutdown businesses and force the workforce to stay home over the Covid virus scare; it's estimated that there's 20 percent death of despair creeping higher everyday. Five hundred plus medical physicians have written a letter to President Trump calling the shutdown what it is: “a mass casualty incident.” The letter was written by Dr. Simone Gold, an emergency medicine specialist in Los Angeles, CA: - - - - - - - “During a mass casualty incident, victims are immediately triaged to black, red, yellow or green. The first group, triage level black, includes those who require too many resources to save during a mass crisis. The red group has severe injuries that are survivable with treatment, the yellow group has serious injuries that are not immediately life threatening and the green group has minor injuries. The red group is the one that gets the most attention. Do you think the coronavirus lockdowns will end up costing more lives than they save? Millions of Americans are already at triage level red - these include:
| “We are alarmed at what appears to be the lack of consideration for the future health of our patients. The downstream health effects of deteriorating a level are being massively under-estimated and under-reported. This is an order of magnitude error. It is impossible to overstate the short, medium and long-term harm to people’s health with a continued shutdown. “Losing a job is one of life’s most stressful events and the effect on a person’s health is not lessened because it also has happened to 30 million other people. Keeping schools and universities closed is incalculably detrimental for children, teenagers, and young adults for decades to come. The millions of casualties of a continued shutdown will be hiding in plain sight, but they will be called alcoholism, homelessness, suicide, heart attack, stroke, or kidney failure. In youths it will be called financial instability, unemployment, despair, drug addiction, unplanned pregnancies, poverty and abuse. "Yes, the number of people who have died of the coronavirus is massive. However, the number of those who will end up dying from a complete shutdown is, as of yet, unknown — and it could end up being just as problematic. "When stroke evaluations drop 40 percent during the COVID-19 epidemic, there’s a real problem. It’s not that we were suffering from too many stroke evaluations before the virus struck. Instead, it’s caused people to put off necessary medical care, either because of fears of the disease or because that care simply isn’t available. "Make no mistake: This is a crisis. It’s already too late to stop the deaths of despair and neglect of health that this will cause. The question now is how deep it goes."

| Judge Sullivan Hires Personal Lawyer to Defend HIMSELF in His Decision in Gen Flynn's Case 5-23-20, SFGate.com -- WASHINGTON - Federal Judge Emmet Sullivan who refused a Justice Dept request to immediately drop the prosecution of former Trump adviser & retired Army Lt General Michael Flynn has hired a high-profile trial lawyer Beth Wilkinson to argue his refusal to accept the dismissal; was it ppropriate? In a rare step Wilkinson is hired to represent him to defend his decision to a federal appeals court. This year, after Mueller completed his investigation and disbanded his team, AG Bill Barr sought to scrap the case, arguing the agents who questioned Gen Flynn about his contacts with the Russian ambassador didn't have a legitimate investigative or counterintelligence basis to do so, so any lies Flynn may have told were neither important nor criminal. | 'OBAMAGATE' EXPOSED: How Michael Flynn was set up by the FBI 5-14-20 Glenn Beck reported on new evidence proving that many of the big players in Pres Obama's admin were colluding with America's intelligence community to illegally launch an investigation into retired Gen. Michael Flynn, a 30-year combat veteran and former director of the Defense Intelligence Agency, for no other reason than he was a member of President Trump's team. Copies of two recently released communications show the FBI bureau's justification for opening an investigation into Flynn revealed a recently declassified document from the FBI dated Jan. 4, 2017, that made clear that investigators found that Gen. Flynn was "no longer a viable candidate" in the Russia investigation and cleared him of any wrongdoing. See source materials mentioned in this report here. | JUSTICE for Gen Mike Flynn: Unmaskings EXPOSED 5-15-20, JudicialWatch -- No wonder the DOJ and FBI resisted the public release of this infamous “electronic communication” [EC] that “opened” Crossfire Hurricane – that shows no serious basis for the Obama admin to launch an unprecedented spy operation on candidate Trump's 2016 presidential campaign. 'Crossfire Hurricane' was a scam, based on absurd gossip and innuendo it's the worst corruption scandal in American history,. Exhibit A shows how Att Genl Barr & U.S. Att Durham are right to question the predicate of this spy operation.

'I'll Fly Away!'
***
In 1929 Albert E. Brumley wrote this optimistic song about an earthly death or a snatching away in what many call the 'Rapture of the Church.' Where believers in Christ will have everlasting life in glory with Christ. It is based on the Bible verse:
"Then we who are alive and remain will be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air; and so we shall always be with the Lord. "
1 Thessalonians 4:17
Lyrics:
Some glad morning when this life is o'er,
I'll fly away;
To a home on God's celestial shore,
I'll fly away (I'll fly away).
Chorus
I'll fly away, Oh Glory
I'll fly away; (in the morning)
When I die, Hallelujah, by and by,
I'll fly away (I'll fly away).
When the shadows of this life have gone,
I'll fly away;
Like a bird from prison bars has flown,
I'll fly away (I'll fly away)
Chorus
Just a few more weary days and then,
I'll fly away;
To a land where joy shall never end,
I'll fly away (I'll fly away).

Work is Good for Us
God’s word says: “Go to the ant, thou sluggard; consider her ways and be wise: He becometh poor that dealeth with a slack hand: but the hand of the diligent maketh rich.”
| Proverbs 6:6, 10:4 5-23-20, * -- Currently many of the world’s governments are forcing the land to “lie fallow” without their citizens working. It’s un-natural for mankind not to work. It’s unhealthy. God created man in His image with characteristics like Him (Genesis 1:26-31). He created man to work with Him in the world. God planted a garden and put Adam in it to cultivate and maintain it (Genesis 2:8, 15). Additionally, Adam and Eve were to subdue and rule over the earth humans are to:
| Now, Proverbs has endless wisdom on the value of hard work; but also has surprise insight about laziness. The “slack hand” in the first clause is easy to understand on its surface; being lazy doesn’t help success. God’s gave us a perfect model for work at His work of creating Heaven, Earth, Mankind, Animals and everything else on Earth. Did the Lord model unending work? On the seventh day God rested and so should we. Here’s the model we learn both in today’s verse and in God’s example of work:

Reportedly Spy Drones Used to Monitor Instructing Citizens
Stated Reason? Covid Virus
‘Maintain 6 ft distance – thank you we’re all in this together’
| 4-27-20, CBSNews -- Worldwide public health officials are employing drones to flyover us monitoring public spaces enforcing social distancing rules with the stated reason to help slow the Covid virus. Recently citizens of New York are seeing a drone buzzing above a the City park & it has a loudspeaker broadcasting a message: "This is the Anti-COVID-19 Volunteer Drone Task Force. Please maintain a social distance of at least six feet. For your own safety & your family's safety, please maintain social distancing. Thank you for your cooperation; we are all in this together." Sergeant Tim Ehrenkaufer of Daytona Beach, Florida said they are one of 43 agencies in 21 states to receive a donations from drone manufacturer DJI, which gave away 100 as part of its disaster relief program. We’ve tested, but not deployed, other drone-backed technologies, like measuring body temperature. "It's equipped with a FLIR, the Forward Looking Infrared Camera, which can detect heat signatures as well. ... You still have the FAA & local laws that guide us. It doesn't matter if I'm using a drone, a telescoping antenna, or if I'm flying a kite with a camera on it. I don't have a right to look in your backyard without a search warrant." [Book: 1984] |  | In Connecticut the Westport Police Dept planned a drone program to monitor heat signatures and track distances between people. It could even recognize if someone coughed. However, because of privacy concerns, it wasn’t activated as there is too much potential abuse. Jeramie Scott, senior counsel at the Electronic Privacy Information Center said, "You could add the ability to do facial recognition, or the ability to do license plate reading, [or] thermal imaging cameras that can essentially see through walls" CBS reporter asked: "Some people might say, 'Look, these extreme measures are just being used during this pandemic. Why should we worry?'" Scott said, "Then, there should be no issue with stating that & providing certain protections, saying this information is only being used in response to the public health issue & won't be used for other purposes." [Note: Nothing is so permanent as a temporary government program. -- Milton Friedman] Sergeant Ehrenkaufer says drones are limited to public spaces: However, currently no federal regulations exist that limit data collection – only "voluntary best practices."

Pres Trump recently told the New York Post on it would be unfair to Republicans if Congress helps bail out states with federal aid because the states that would benefit most are run by Democrats. “It’s not fair to the Republicans because all the states that need help—they're run by Democrats in every case. " | Covid Virus Lockdown Orders Primarily in Democrat Led States 3-30-20, Axios -- Just 21 states have ordered people to stay home and businesses to close.

Romans 5:8; Luke 23:34 However, after we are aware we're no longer ignorant of Who He was and 'what we do;' THEN we are all responsible if we reject Christ. John 3:17-18
✝️ 7-3-20, As we see in the Bible's Old Testament all the events where the Hebrews were punished for their disobedience ... why today do we think almighty God is less righteous and will permit His followers to do wickedly without unpleasant consequences? Daniel 9:4-14
6-29-20, Jesus said, 'Obey Me!' John 14:15; 1 John 2:3, 3:22 Of course we are forgiven when we sincerely pray for forgiveness turning our lives to the Lord Jesus. We must intend to sin no more ... if we do ... quickly repent as we didn't INTEND to. John 8:11 More here: https://www.gotquestions.org/go-and-sin-no-more.html
We must be born again in Jesus. John 3:3,7
Jesus said, 'You must be born again." John 3:3, 7
Proverbs 24:19-20; Psalm 141:10
✝️ 6-17-20, Many people have the misconception that the Lord's TEN COMMANDMENTS are just suggestions since Jesus came and we're now under the NEW COVENANT. Well, Jesus repeated them in Matthew 19:18-19.
✝️ 6-16-20, The demented and delusional rioters who apparently hate America, law, order and police are still loved by our Lord □ Jesus and will save any sinner who repent of their sin and believe in Him. John 3:16, Ephesians 2:3-5; Romans 5:8, Revelation 1:5
✝️ 6-15-20, Our hearts break as we watch Americans riot and kill performing all types of lawlessness; they behave as if there is no God as if THEY are God. Surely we are in the last days as described by the Apostle Paul in 2 Thessalonians 2:1-4, 3:3
✝️ 6-12-20, The Lord □Jesus' mom, Mary's cousin Elizabeth's son John the Baptist was brutally killed because of a wicked hateful woman. Her foolish husband, King Herod - although he liked John; had him executed because of a promise - he musta been drunk - to make such a promise to his wife's daughter, Salome who's mom, Herodias wanted John dead. Matthew 14:3-11; Mark 6:14-29; Luke 9:7-9
✝️ 6-11-20, Regarding forgiveness: the Lord □ Jesus clearly taught that marriage was between a husband & wife. [Matthew 19:5; Mark 7:21] He loves all sinners both the heterosexual & homosexual. He promises forgiveness to everyone who repents coming to Him for salvation. He told the woman caught in adultery: "Go and sin no more.” Matthew 11:28
✝️ 6-9-20, The Lord □ Jesus explained to Nicodemus that he must be 'born again' [John 3.3, 7]. In Utah I've heard some LDS people scoff and ridicule believers in Christ who are 'born again.' Those who scorn are lost; Jesus clearly said to 'marvel not that you must be born again'; without Christ we are lost. John 3:17-18
✝️ 6-8-20, Jesus is God; He came to save sinners. “For He [Jesus] Whom God sent speaks the words of God: The Father loves the Son & has given all things into His hand. He that believs on the Son hath everlasting life & they that believes not the Son shall not see life; but the wrath of God abideth on them.” John 3:34-36
✝️ 6-7-20, The Lord □ Jesus spoke from the cross first of forgiveness, salvation then of His Mother's care into John's hands. He spoke of being forsaken & then triumph as His task as human was complete shedding His perfect blood for the forgiveness of sins to all who repent believing in Him. His body was thirsty. And last of His reunion with the Father. Matthew 27:46; Luke 23:34, 43, 46; John 19:26-28, 30; Mark 15:34
✝️ 6-6-20, Another promise from God's word in Psalm 72:1-9; the Lord will annihilate the oppressor while the righteous will prosper and His enemies will lick the dust. Thank You, Lord.
Genesis 1:9-10
✝️ 6-5-20, As we watch in horror the evil behaviors of the masses in America; those who are born again in the Lord Jesus should have peace. His peace that passes all understanding. He has our best in His plans. Jeremiah 29:11; Isaiah 55:11-13; Philippians 4:7
✝️ 6-3-20, Interesting the different duties of God's arch angels. Michael is a warrior who will defeat Satan and Gabriel was/is God's messenger appearing to:
Prophet Daniel 8:15-17, 9:21-24 ...
Zacharias, father of John the Baptist, Luke 1:11-18...
Mary, Mother of Jesus, Luke 1:26-31...
Joseph, Husband of Mary, Matthew 1:20-24, 2-13
✝️ 6-2-20, In appx 530 BC the Lord God of Israel chose the Persian [aka Iran] King Cyrus to protect and help the Jewish exiles in Babylon. Who would come back and rebuild Solomon's Temple in Jerusalem where now - since 688 AD - a Muslim mosque sits. Mark 13:14; Isaiah 45:4-6, 9, 12-13. World Without End. Ephesians 3:20-21
✝️ 6-1-20, The Lord □Jesus had plenty to say about hypocrites. See Matthew 23:2, 5, 16, 12-29
Revelation 19:7-8
✝️ 5-30-20, As we watch in horror when Derek killed George in Minneapolis, the riots & mayhem; we know that God is looking down on it all & preparing His judgment. When we add the murder of millions of innocent babies - we know it won't be good. Exodus 20:13; Genesis 4:15, 9:6
Mark 1:3; Psalm 16:11
✝️ 5-29-20, The Lord □ Jesus wants us to behave in a loving caring way especially to the brethren. Similar as if we were caring for Him. Matthew 25:31-41
✝️ 5-28-20, God's word has many encouraging promises to those who stand fast in their faith of the Lord □ Jesus. We're called 'Overcomers' - 1 John 5:4-5; Revelation 2:7, 3:21. Thank You, Lord.
✝️ 5-31-20, Have you ever noticed that in God's word He repeatedly warns us we are to fear Him? Well, why not? Like □Jesus said, we should fear Him who can cast us into Hell. Luke 12:5; Psalm 103:1-2, 11-15, 17
Luke 17:25-27

✝️ 5-26-20, There are those who refuse to believe in almighty God's miracles; they call them coincidences or just 'by chance.’ When the Lord performs His mighty deeds ... it doesn’t matter. Job 5:9; Jeremiah 32:37; John 2:11; Mark 9:23; Acts 3:16
✝️ 5-24-20, A rich ruler asked the Lord □ Jesus about heaven; he didn't like Jesus’ answer. We need to keep reading ... all things are possible with God. Matthew 19:23-26; Mark 10:17-31; Luke 18:18-30
✝️ 5-23-20, Our eternal destination is determined by each of us individually. We chose Hell when we reject Christ. John 3:17-18, 14:6; Romans 5:2; Ephesians 2:18; Hebrews 10:20
✝️ 5-16-20, The Lord □ Jesus has an accepted time & hopefully it's soon! Even so, come, King Jesus. Revelation 22:20; Luke 4:18-19; 2 Corinthians 6:2
✝️ 5-13-20, What a wonderful vision the Apostle John had of the New Jerusalem. It is 1,500 miles square and 1,500 miles high. Almost the size of the United States. The Lord □ Jesus is the Light. Imagine no more wickedness. No more pain & crying. Revelation 21:1-2, 3-27, 22:1-5
✝️ 5-12-20, Because of God’s love, while we were yet sinners, the Lord Jesus □Christ suffered and died for us. It was God's plan for sinful mankind to repent trusting Him to save them; He could/can because He is God and arose from death. Thank You, Lord. Romans 5:8; Galatians 2:20
✝️ 5-7-20, Sins □ Jesus Harshly Condemns; He said, “God knows our hearts: for that which is highly esteemed among men is abomination in the sight of God.

✝️ 5-2-20, There are some scorners and scoffers who mock those who are Born Again in Christ. Sadly they must not read the scriptures - the Lord □ Jesus told us to marvel not that we must be born again. John 3:3, 7, 1 Peter 1:3
✝️ 4-30-20, When the Lord □ Jesus Mother told her son that at the Cana wedding celebration there was no wine - I wonder if the Lord did little miracles around the house so Mary knew of His abilities expecting Him to quickly whip up some good wine. And He did! The Lord's first miracle on earth water into wine. John 2:1-11
✝️ 4-28-20, The Lord □ Jesus, in the book of Matthew, lists what’s called the “Beatitudes.” He lists the items in our lives in His 'Sermon on the Mount' that examine our values, vision & habits to wholehearted obedience to God.

✝️ 4-14-20, Based on the behaviors of some church goers; apparently they think God is like an old lenient Grandpa winking at deliberate unrepentant sin.
