Scripture for Today, 6-30-23: God's Glory

6/30/2023

 
Picture
6-30-23, In the Exodus, we clearly see that almighty God, Creator of everything, is a forgiving, loving & righteous - but also jealous - God. He demands obedience & respect. Pharaoh is arrogantly refusing to obey & will soon see the Lord's wrath. He said: I am the only existing God; their so-called gods are but vapor & smoke.

By the series of miraculous events/wonders connected with the Exodus, this was one of the main lessons to be taught: the Egyptians will know Who is God. 



Exodus 7:5, 12:12; Ezekiel 25:7, 28:24

Affirmative Action is Racist!

6/30/2023

After the Supreme Court Rules Affirmative Actions Is Unconstitutional
The Party of Racism Strikes Again:
Dems Tell Black People They Cannot Succeed in a 'Merit-Based System' 

6-30-23, ANP* -- On Thursday, June 29, 2023, the US Supreme Court ruled that “affirmative action” [1] for college-based admissions was unconstitutional. In 1965, by executive order #11246, affirmative action was initiated by Democrat President Lyndon Johnson (1963–69) for the stated purpose to improve opportunities for minorities while the 1964 civil rights legislation [2] was already dismantling the legal basis for discrimination. Businesses receiving federal funds were prohibited from using aptitude tests and other criteria that was said to discriminate against African Americans. Subsequently, affirmative action was broadened to cover colleges, universities, state and federal agencies. Clearly it was reverse discrimination. 
Following are a few of the most egregious reactions to SCOTUS’ ruling:
​
• Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.) called the court’s ruling “a giant roadblock in our country’s march toward racial justice.”
 
• Rep. Ayanna Pressley (D-Mass.) had some stronger words, calling the court’s decision “just the latest in the white supremacist assault on equity in education.”
 
• Sen. Mazie Hirono (D-Hawaii), also a member of the Judiciary Committee. “Once again, this extreme Supreme Court has taken our country backwards.”
Picture
Democrats, black and white, are so self-unaware that they cannot even see their own reverse racism. America has had a half black president, a black VP, so yes, we do live in a color-blind country since that could not have happened without white people voting for them!  Every single liberal reaction I have read since the decision came out has made it clear that Democrats only see color, they aren't even willing to look past color to see intelligence, SAT scores, or the unending examples of prominent, and wealthy black Americans that fought earning everything they have just like white people do.
 
This entire saga has shown us how "baked in" racism is to the Democrat party. This doesn't mean some conservatives aren't racist, but they are the fringe and do not represent the Republican party as a whole. For the Democrats to rage against the Supreme Court for daring to strike down a law where men and women are not judged by merit, intelligence and ability - rather than the color of their skin - and worse yet not treating black people as if they aren't smart enough to succeed on their own - should be considered outrageous by any thinking person.

Scripture for Today, 6-29-23: Rapture & Darby?

6/29/2023

John Darby Did Not Invent the Rapture

6-21-23, * -- One issue being promoted by a belief system of theology is that a Rapture [snatching away] of the church is not Bible truth. It’s claimed that such doctrine is a fabrication of one John Nelson Darby of Ireland (1800-1882). Any Scripture that makes such a reference is said to be just aspects of Christ’s Second Coming. Large passages of Scripture are disregarded as meaningless, along with prophecies of the last days. Paul admonished Timothy to “study to show yourself approved of God, a workman not ashamed, rightly dividing the Word of truth” (2 Timothy 2:15). We, in the 21st century, should also follow that directive, for God is a rewarder of those who diligently seek Him (Hebrews 11:6).
 
Reportedly, John Darby was an active well-known figure in the mid-1800 theological circles, he supported Calvin’s views. Well before Darby, there was strong belief in the Rapture of the Church; after the times of the Apostles, writers proclaimed their belief in the “imminence” of Christ’s return. This, of course, is still held by many today, although we know that Jesus never made a promise or prophecy that He did not intend to fulfill.
 
What does the Bible say? 1 Thessalonians 4:16-17 “For the Lord Himself will descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of an archangel, and with the trumpet of God. And the dead in Christ will rise first. Then we who are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air. And thus we shall always be with the Lord.”
 
Two Old Testament examples of a ‘snatching away rapture’ was the experience of Enoch, the early man of faith who “walked with God and he was not, for God took him” (Genesis 5:24). Also, Elijah taken up to heaven in a blazing chariot (2 Kings 2:11-13).
Jesus Christ told us in John 11:25-26, at the time of the Lazarus' death; as his sisters were weeping over his death - Jesus said: “Your brother will rise again” (John 11:23) …“I am the resurrection and the life. He who believes in Me, though he may die, he shall live. And whoever lives and believes in Me shall never die” (John 11:25-26).
 
It is said that Jesus will come “like a thief in the night,” that is, unexpectedly. Paul, told the Thessalonians, “But you, brethren, are not in darkness, so that this day should overtake you as a thief. You are all sons of light and sons of the day….” (1 Thessalonians 5:4-5a).
 
God has seven special feasts setup on the Jewish calendar. The first one Passover celebrating the time of Israel’s escape from Egypt’s bondage; but the feasts were called “convocations” or rehearsals for future events. They celebrate high-level events of the then-coming Christian era! The death, burial and resurrection of Christ where He, the Passover Lamb, was slain. Here He becomes the “first fruits of the resurrection.” When Jesus died an earthquake shook the city and the vail in the temple’s Holy Place was torn from top to bottom: “And saints came out of their graves after His resurrection, they went into the holy city and appeared to many.” (Matthew 27:53)
 
It will be a very dramatic event as described by the two angels in Acts 1:11: “This same Jesus, who was taken up from you into heaven, will so come in like manner as you saw Him go into heaven.” Therefore, “as we see the Day approaching, we who believe and proclaim the whole counsel of God say, “even so, Lord Jesus, come quickly” (Revelation 19:11, 22:20).

FBI Accuses Christians of White Supremacy

FBI Cites Source Leftist Group:
Southern Poverty Law Center
Tracking ‘Radical-Traditionalist with Christian Ideology’

2-8-23, DAILYSIGNAL [excerpt full report here] -- According  to newly uncovered explosive document by a Federal Bureau of Investigation [FBI] whistleblower their Richmond office repeatedly cited the far-left smear factory the Southern Poverty Law Center [SPLC]  for violating longstanding FBI guidelines and question SPLC’s credibility. However, they still relied their report on the key assumption that [racially or ethnically motivated extremists] will continue to find [radical-traditionalist Catholic or RTC] ideology attractive and will continue to attempt to connect with RTC adherents, both virtually via social media and in-person at places of worship,” the document states.
The FBI Richmond document does not hide its sourcing for information about “radical-traditionalist Catholics.” In a “perspective” note, the document states: "As of 2021, the Southern Poverty Law Center identified nine RTC hate groups operating in the United States.” The document, dated Jan. 23, 2023, includes an appendix with a complete list of organizations the SPLC brands “radical traditional Catholic hate groups.” [..]
“Relying solely on sources such as SPLC, The Atlantic, and Salon demonstrates the FBI is beginning with a predetermined conclusion to target traditionally conservative Americans for undue scrutiny and persecution.”

Why so many U.S. students aren't learning math | UCLA [here]
“Horrendous” is a word James Stigler, a UCLA professor of developmental and cognitive psychology, uses describing how little math many U.S. students learn in middle schools and high schools. He should know; he's been studying how much math and science students have been learning since the late 1970s. "American students think math is about memorizing procedures. They're not learning in a deep way."
American eighth graders rarely spend time engaged in the serious study of mathematical concepts. Japanese eighth graders engage in serious study of mathematical concepts and are asked to develop their own solutions for math problems that they have not seen before. This memorization of facts and procedures applies to the teaching of many subjects in the United States. Improving teaching has proven to be extremely difficult, and efforts to do so have achieved only limited success.

6-27-23, The Lord God told Moses to take Aaron to speak for him & although the King of Egypt won't say yes - he will eventually after I show My many wonders. God's signs displayed by Moses & Aaron were, no doubt significant: changing a rod into a snake then eating up their snakes showed that God's power can & will use feeble implements to chastise & destroy. That of a healthy hand turned into a diseased one & the reverse, indicated that Moses’s mission was both to punish & to save. And interesting that the word doesn't say water turned 'as blood' or "like blood" ... the water was turned to blood [Genesis 4:9].

The letter of termination stated that the school ‘received numerous complaints’ about his ‘religious preaching, discriminatory comments about homosexuals and transgender individuals, anti-abortion rhetoric and misogynistic banter.” 
The four complaining students said he preached religion.

He was fired for teaching widely accepted biological and scientific truth about the human reproductive system and the sex of humans. The statements he made are supported by research and consistent with his professional experience and education.

This will impact the winter wheat harvest.  Now areas that grow most of our corn and most of our soy are also getting absolutely hammered by drought.  If this drought in America’s breadbasket continues through the summer, we are going to have a very serious problem on our hands.
At this point, farmers all over the middle of the country are praying for rain, because right now things are not looking good…
​I hope that you don’t like orange juice.
Because it is about to get really expensive.
And I wouldn’t count on eating a whole lot of beef in the year ahead either, because the size of the U.S. beef cow herd is “the smallest since 1962”.

You got no convictions, you got nothing! It was all setup to hurt the Mueller report, which was correct (a lie) and was redacted to hurt the Bidens and to help Trump. And you were a part of it. You had a good reputation, that’s why two Democrats supported you. But the longer you hold onto Mr. Barr and this report that he gave as special counsel, your reputation will be damaged, as everybody’s reputation who gets involved with Trump is damaged."
While many would not have blamed Durham for angrily unloading on Cohen for his vile smears, he took another path instead. Durham responded by quietly leaning on his faith in Christ and his wonderful family to put Cohen in his place:
he said:

“My concern about my reputation is with the people who I respect, and my family, and my Lord and I'm perfectly comfortable with my reputation with them, sir.” 


The room erupted in applause after Durham’s quiet, but firm response to Cohen’s nasty smear. Rep. Jim Jordan (R-OH) can also be heard saying: “Well said. God bless you.”
