Scripture for Today, 12-20-20: Prophecy Update

12/20/2020

2021 Will Be Better, Right?
The nations have disobeyed and blasphemed the Lord; What should we expect?
~~~
"In the first year of Darius the son of Ahasuerus, of the seed of the Medes, which was made king over the realm of the Chaldeans; In the first year of his reign I Daniel understood by books the number of the years, whereof the word of the LORD came to Jeremiah the prophet, that He would accomplish seventy years in the desolations of Jerusalem. And I set my face unto the Lord God, to seek by prayer and supplications, with fasting, sackcloth and ashes: I prayed unto the LORD my God, made my confession and said,' O Lord, the great and dreadful God, keeping the covenant and mercy to them that love Him, and to them that keep His commandments."

Daniel 9:1-14

God said, "I will send and take all the families of the north and Nebuchadrezzar the king of Babylon, my servant, will bring them against this land, against the inhabitants thereof, against all these nations round about, will utterly destroy them. Will make them an astonishment, an hissing and perpetual desolations." Jeremiah 25:9
***

12-20-20, Today John Haller's weekly prophecy update covers facts that currently and daily we wake up facing new challenges of some sort; in amazement we ask "what tomorrow will bring?"

Although almighty God tells us "not to worry," our fallen, sin nature still trembles wondering what tomorrow will bring. What if 2020 was just the precursor to the total surrender of society's good things? And the horrors we now see will exponentially be magnified?

It's Romans 1:18 in real time.  God's Wrath against Sin:
"For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who hold the truth in unrighteousness." (Jeremiah 6:10-21; Jeremiah 25:15-33; Jonah 1:4-10; Acts 27:13-26)
Picture
The world has and is trading truth for a lie [Isaiah 5:20]. God will give them what they deserve; strong delusion. [2 Thessalonians 2:10-12] We also suffer along with the wicked, but we have peace, joy, hope and reassurance in the Savior Who died for us and is coming again. [Philippians 4:7; Matthew 5:45; John 14:1-3]

A dark day may be coming ... but without warning, the brilliance and majesty of the Lord God will pierce that darkness and judge those who would mock, slander and berate His children. [Revelation 19:11]

As an earthly father's instinct is to protect his children at any cost; God has already done that through the blood of His precious Son, the Lord Jesus Christ. Now, we must patiently wait and occupy until He comes.

It doesn't matter that we don't know what next year will bring; if we know Christ and accept His propitiation for our sins, we have everything we will ever need. Even so, please come Lord Jesus. Revelation 22:20

Step-by-Step Guide to Create a Fake Pandemic
4-21-20, A really great fake pandemic takes anything incorporating it into the narrative. You must siphon up all the deaths that are happening anywhere in the world and use them for your cause.
A fake pandemic doesn't require just one disease or just one cause. Horrible air pollution? 5G radiation? It's necessary to increase the numerator (attribute other deaths to this new disease, even if this disease was present in their bodies at death but didn’t cause it) and decrease the denominator. To increase the numerator, relax the laws everywhere to allow doctors to ascribe the cause of death to the new virus, even if it had nothing to do with the actual death.
Right from the start, you need to use the MSM to frame the context. Control the narrative by telling people this is way worse than anything that’s ever happened before. Hype, hype, hype. Most people are intellectually lazy. Even with the internet at their fingertips, they won’t check the figures or do the thinking required to put your fake pandemic into proper context. They want the MSM to spoon feed them and tell them how to think about this new thing. So have your MSM reporters, news readers and anchors use dramatic faces and tones to impart fear. If necessary, this may even involve going back in time to manipulate past figures to aid your current propaganda, i.e. changing history as Orwell laid out in 1984. Be sure to bring in Fake ‘Experts’ with Exaggerated Simulation Models Predicting Doom
Make the Symptoms Vague, Broad and Ill-Defined: Cough? Mucus? Fatigue? Trouble breathing? Fever? These kind of symptoms could mean any one of countless diseases. Keep the symptoms of the new virus unrealistically broad, so people think they have contracted it when they innocently get tired, cough or get a cold. 
​Say the Pathogen Spreads Easily Via Air, Food, Body Fluids and Surfaces. Fear is the currency of control. Remember, it’s all about perception control: taking what already exists creating the crisis in people’s heads. As a bonus, with the utter mess and chaos you’ll create, a real crisis or two is bound to appear somewhere - like locking down business creating unemployment and anger. This will further your power and agendas. More here

Scripture for Today, 12-19-20: Science Proves the Bible

12/19/2020

 
Picture

Science--True and False 
“And out of the ground made the LORD God to grow every tree that is pleasant to the sight and good for food; the tree of life also in the midst of the garden and the tree of knowledge of good and evil.”

Genesis 2:9

12-19-20, It is significant that the first reference to “science” in the Bible is in connection with the tree of the “science” of good and evil. The English word “science” comes from the Latin scientia, meaning “knowledge.”

In both Old and New Testaments, “science” and “knowledge” translate the same Greek and Hebrew words respectively. Science—properly speaking—is what we know, not naturalistic speculation (as in evolutionary “science”). Adam and Eve knew a great deal about God and His creation, and all of it was “very good” (Genesis 1:31); they did not need to have a knowledge of evil and God warned them against it (Gen 2:17).
However, they partook of the evil tree anyway, and therewith evil knowledge entered the hearts and minds of mankind.

​Throughout the long ages since, true science has been of great good in the world and false science has wrought great harm. The apostle Paul has warned us against it:

“Keep that which is committed to thy trust, avoiding profane and vain babblings, and oppositions of science falsely so called” (1 Timothy 6:20).

In the context of the times, Paul was specifically warning against the evolutionary pantheism of the gnostic philosophers.
Picture
In contrast, the final climactic reference in the Bible to knowledge is Peter’s exhortation:
  • “grow in grace, and in the knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ” (2 Peter 3:18).
  • “The fear of the LORD is the beginning of knowledge” (Proverbs 1:7)
  • In Jesus Christ “are hid all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge” (Colossians 2:3).

Therefore, let us resolve to eschew the knowledge of evil and grow in the knowledge of Christ! Source

President Trump Suggests the Recent Cyber Attack May Not Have Been Russia ... No definitive information - Could have been China

12-19-20, FoxNews -- Speaking with Mark Levin of Fox News, Sec of State Mike Pompeo said that "now we can say pretty clearly that it was the Russians that engaged in this activity ... significant effort to use a piece of third-party software to essentially embed code inside of U.S. government systems and it now appears systems of private companies and companies and governments across the world as well."
Picture
[..] It took weeks after the incidents became public for the Obama administration to blame North Korea in the Sony Pictures Entertainment hack in 2014 and for then-national intelligence director James Clapper to confirm China as the “leading suspect” in hacks of the Office of Personnel Management.[..] Obama sanctioned Russian intelligence services after the suspected 2016 election interference and expelled Russian diplomats. The Trump administration and Western allies similarly expelled diplomats over Moscow's alleged poisoning of an ex-intelligence officer in Britain.[..]
​Jason Healey, a Columbia University cyberconflict scholar said, 'Since espionage itself is not a crime —action is to triple down on defensive cybersecurity.'
David Simon, a cybersecurity expert and former Defense Dept special counsel, said there must be consequences for those [uncertain agencies] responsible for attacks — and the Trump administration “has fallen far short in holding the Kremlin accountable. Until it’s clear the U.S. will impose meaningful costs on adversaries, a material change in the Kremlin’s behavior is not likely to be seen.” More here from Wdsu.com

​Mass Exodus: The Democrat Party Is Hemorrhaging
12-15-20, WeLoveTrump.com -- Whether it be the mass exodus from blue states like New York or California and voting for President Trump. Based on all the factual numbers - no way Biden received 80 million votes. Whether it be the mass exodus from blue states like New York or California, the growing calls to recall Gavin Newsom, or the rejection of left wing Tyranny By Fragility, people are voting with their feet, by moving to the beating heart of America, Texas and Utah. Fayette County Sheriff James Custer just flipped from Democrat to Republican! He said: "Radicalism has taken over. I'm sick of the Socialist agenda. This is something that I had been considering for several months. It probably started back when the pandemic started. And the mandates coming down by the Democrat governors, and, of which we have one here, Pennsylvania, that I fear are unconstitutional. And as the sheriff, it is my duty - as a constitutional sheriff - to protect and serve, uphold and defend the Constitution of the United States and these unconstitutional mandates being brought down on our citizens. And being able to protect their rights and freedoms under the Constitution.” Another patriot stated that: "Covid exposed left wing tyranny."

​Dave Rubin On California's Mass Exodus
12-14-20, Dave Rubin said: "One of the things I do find very strange about California is that there seems to be a complete disconnect between people's voting habits and them understanding that the policies that they vote to put in place are the very things destroying their lives." [..] He also weighed in on why so many tech companies and fellow political commentators are fleeing  California in droves:

​ 
"If all of the people flee states and move across state lines, because that's the only place that they can live that, you know, is in cahoots with their with their whatever their lifestyle is or ideology or whatever you want to call it, then ultimately the American experiment will really have failed, that we will not be the United States of America anymore. And I was talking to Michael Knowles about and we said, OK, we'll stay and fight. About two days later, the Daily Wire announced they're moving to Nashville. Knowles is gone. And I'm [still] here. And I just heard that. So we've got Dennis Prager, Larry Elder, Adam Carolla; but I just heard Carolla's moving to Houston. So, look, you know, I'm a fighter. I believe we can we can get rid of Newsome with a recall and maybe we can reverse some things. And maybe maybe people will wake up to the nightmare scenarios that progressives bring to these cities."

The Republican President, Abraham Lincoln Cared for The Black Lives in Slavery
12-18-20, BBC -- The Civil War began in 1861 when southern Democrat slave-holding states, fearing the institution of slavery was under threat in a nation governed by northern free states, seceded from the US after the election of President Abraham Lincoln.

It ended in 1865 with the surrender of the southern, or Confederate forces, to the Union army; slavery was officially abolished by constitutional amendment that year. 

​​US Civil War deaths therefore could range from 617,877 to 851,066, and he settles on an estimate of 750,000 dead. Prof Hacker's figure of 750,000 would translate into about 7.5 million US deaths in proportion to America's current population, Prof McPherson notes.
​San Francisco may rename Abraham Lincoln High School
12-16-20, NYPost -- 
San Francisco may remove Abraham Lincoln's name from a high school, because a district committee says the 16th president — who abolished slavery — did not demonstrate that "black lives matter to him." Critics have slammed the district’s effort to rename the 44 sites as amateurish, arguing the committee’s rationales derived from Wikipedia or selective news sources — rather than relying on historical records and exhaustive research.
Names included George Washington, Herbert Hoover and Democrat Sen. Dianne Feinstein, whose name was recommended to be removed from an elementary school because she replaced a vandalized Confederate flag in front of City Hall as mayor in 1984.

Scripture for Today, 12-18-20: Mystery Babylon

America Mystery Babylon?
The great city was divided into three parts, and the cities of the nations fell: and great Babylon came in remembrance before God, to give unto her the cup of the wine of the fierceness of His wrath. Babylon is fallen, is fallen; and all the graven images of her gods He hath broken unto the ground because she made all nations drink of the wine of the wrath of her fornication.

Isaiah 21:9; Revelation 14:8, 16:17-8, 19, 17:3-5; Jeremiah 51:1-2
​***
UPDATE: 1-4-20, Another Bible scholar who understands that scripture is pointing to America as mystery Babylon. Excerpt:
​
"No other nation has been the policeman of the world, as has the USA. Some will call us colonialist, or aggressors, but we have fought endless wars to promote human rights and democracy into all nations that we have fought wars in. I think of WW1 and WW2, the Vietnam War, the Gulf Wars, the invasion of Iraq, and Afghanistan to rid ourselves of communism and terrorism after 9/11 and the destruction of the World Trade Center and the Pentagon. Each and every time, world conditions and evil men have drawn America into fighting in foreign lands. Some will argue for no good reason and illusions of WMD’s and money to be made from military hardware, but the point of the passage is that no other nation on earth can be called the hammer of the whole earth, like the USA has been and still is…but notice verse 24? A snare has been laid and our destruction is sure. Now some will say, that this passage deals with ancient Babylon, but remember, scripture reveals what happened in the past, will happen in the future, as a duality of prophecy. I believe this is one such passage, but there is much more. --

6-24-19, The Bible talks about a dominant city or nation in the last days that is a major center of commerce that will be destroyed. Many believe it’s referring to the Vatican in Rome; they're wrong there are many reason's why they're wrong the main one they speak of is the '7 mountains' of Revelation 17:9… the area of the Vatican is surrounded by 7 hills. ... there are no mountains in Rome. To hold that view 98% of the scripture referring to it must be ignored.

Following are the top verses and facts confirming the view that America is Mystery Babylon:
  1. Is the most respected and envied around the world and yet at the same time is hated by the world. A nation "peeled", or timbered, a land of open fields and many waters; rivers. (Isaiah 18:2; Jer 51:13; Rev 17:1, 18:17-19)
  2. Is lone super power of the world, “Queen among nations.” (Isa 14:4-6, 47:5; Jer 50:9, 23)
  3. Would be an end time great nation. (Isa 13:6; Revelation 17:18)
  4. Is called a lady; the symbol of the Lady "LIBERTY" on money and sits in the New York Harbor that's named ​'Babylon.' (Isa  47:7-9)
  5. Destroys her own people [abortion], land, with pollution and waste. (Isa 14:20, 18:2)
  6. Has a huge aviation program. (Isa 14:13-14, 18:1; Jer 51:53)
  7. Is a republic/democracy ruled and wearied by many counsels. (Isa 47:13)
  8. Labored in the occult, astrology from her very inception (Isa 47:12; Rev 18:2)
  9. Is a nation of perverted higher education and learning. (Isa 47:10)
  10. Born as a Christian nation; her enemy will lie on the opposite side of the world. (Isa 13:5; Jer 50:11-12)
  11. Peoples continually focus on pleasures thinking they are great, God's elect and eternal. (Isa 47:7-8)
  12. Would be praised by the whole earth. (Jer 51:41)
  13. Is a nation filled with warehouses and granaries. (Jer 50:26; Rev. 18:11-13)
  14. Is noted for immigrants and men behave as women. (Jer 50:37; Hab 1:6)
  15. Is noted for her livestock and treasures. (Rev 18:13)
  16. Land quartered by mighty rivers Isa 18:2 and coastal nation and sits upon MANY WATERS. Jeremiah 51:13
  17. Christian & political leaders taking their flock astray. (Jer 50:6)
  18. Is a huge exporter manufacturing, craft & music. (Rev 18:19, 22)
  19. Common and accepted to use profanity with the Lord’s name; blasphemy. (Rev 17:3)
  20. Sexual immorality, homosexuality commonly promoted even to young children. (Matthew 18:6; Mark 9:42; Rev 17:2, 4-5)
  21. Leaders enemy of the Lord Jesus. (Rev 17:6) 
  22. Washington DC – Washington DC was built on seven hills: More here

There is no other city or nation on earth that could fulfill all these requirements other than the United States of America. It's truly amazing that there are so many preachers and churches that proclaim that America isn't mentioned in the Bible? Ridiculous. Ezekiel 38:18-23 God's warning.

Congress nearing deal on COVID-19 economic relief bill
12-17-20, DenverPost -- House lawmakers returned to Washington on Wednesday in hopes of a vote soon on the broader package, which would combine the COVID-19 relief with a $1.4 trillion governmentwide funding bill and a... After months of partisan divide, it looks like both Republicans and Democrats are nearing a consensus on the next COVID-19 relief bill. The bill in question is price-tagged at $908 billion, a fraction of the $3.4 trillion Heroes Act, which passed the Democrat-controlled House of Representatives in May but failed to gain significant Republican support.

The new bill, introduced last week by a group of bipartisan lawmakers, will not include individual payments but does include a $300 per week unemployment benefit. It also includes $160 billion for state and local governments, a key item on the Democrat agenda, and a pause on some coronavirus related lawsuits, an item from the GOP side.

It also includes more funding for health care, transit, small businesses and schools. Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., called the $3.4 trillion Heroes Act a “liberal wish list,” and condemned its nearly $1 trillion in aid to faltering state governments,  $10 million for the Endowment for the Arts and “The word ‘cannabis’ appears in this bill 68 times. More times than the word ‘job’ and four times as many as the word ‘hire.’”​ McConnell said, “The House gave themselves no assignments for two months except developing this proposal. Yet it still reads like the Speaker of the House pasted together random ideas from her most liberal members and slapped the word ‘coronavirus’ on top of it.”

Commander Naaman of Syria
​"Naaman, captain of the host of the king of Syria, was a great man with his master and honorable, because by him the Lord had given deliverance unto Syria: he was also a mighty man in valor, but he was a leper." 

2 Kings 5:1​

12-17-20, Most people have heard of Abraham, David, Paul and Peter; there are many many more we can learn about in the Bible's sixty-six books that cover so many years of history.
2 Kings 5 tells the story of Naaman, who was a successful Syrian commander who suffered with the disease of leprosy.
​
Naaman’s wife went to see the prophet Elisha to ask for Naaman's healing. When Elisha heard that the King of Israel
Jehoram's [1] concern for Naaman he agreed to honor the maid's request. But when Naaman received Elisha's letter of instruction to go wash in the Jordan seven times ... he was furious.[ 2 Kings 5:12]

However, after being persuaded, he did go down to the Jordan and was healed.
So he went with great gratitude back to see Elisha and said:

This new stimulus plan suggestion has a twist - Bribe Citizens to take the shot
11-30-20, BGR.com -- New idea afloat to get stimulus money, you'd have to also get a COVID-19 vaccine shot. Robert Litan, who worked in the Justice Dept under Bill Clinton, told Business Insider this stimulus idea is critical because it’s supposed to be a potential life-saver. It would put money into Americans’ pockets immediately, solving the problem of a do-nothing Congress, while also helping the US reach herd immunity and the potential end of the coronavirus pandemic. “Unlike previous payments, this is stimulus tied to socially responsible behavior,” Litan said. “So, society is getting a benefit from handing out the money.”
​This stimulus plan would pay you $1,500 for accepting the Covid shot
12-4-20, MSN.com -- A new stimulus bill proposal calls for linking the issuance of new stimulus checks to whether or not people get vaccinated for COVID-19. ​Congress is still mired in a protracted, months-long stalemate over the passage of a new stimulus bill, with Democrats in favor of a $900 billion proposal while top Republicans don’t want to go higher than $500 billion. And you’ve still got to add another $380 billion, at least, on top of those proposals — that’s how much Delaney estimates it would cost to send $1,500 checks to Americans in exchange for getting their COVID-19 vaccination.

​Covid: Vaccine or Vit D?
Vitamin D & Ivermectin Better Solutions to COVID than Vaccines People are dying, but what are they dying from? Vaccine isn't needed for an easily treated disease, and the cover-up of this fact is damning. It's a terrible crime.  The combination of  Vitamin D & Ivermectin will run circles around any vaccine that comes out because no vaccine treats the already seriously ill. The University of Texas Health Science Center and the Eastern Virginia Medical School explain vaccine efficacy for already sick people drops to zero. However, with Vit D & Ivermectin in play, no vaccine is needed.  Ivermectin has been widely used and has demonstrated an excellent safety profile. [Also Hydroxychloroquine] The governments are wasting their money and playing Nazi-style medicine.

Stimulus update: $160 billion in bill for Covid related lawsuits
12-14-20, ABC.News -- The dozen or so lawmakers sealed agreement on their COVID relief plan over the weekend and decided to offer two bills. One is a $748 billion aid package containing money for struggling businesses, the unemployed, schools, and for vaccine distribution.
The other bill proposes a $160 billion aid package for state and local governments and provisions shielding businesses from COVID-related lawsuits, a dynamic favored by Senate Republicans. The path forward for their proposals - and for COVID-19 aid more generally - remains unclear. Parallel negotiations over virus relief and government funding are proceeding on the leadership level involving House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., and Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin. Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., remains central to any agreement.
​
​Outstanding issues include a potential second round of direct payments to individuals, a plan for $300 bonus unemployment benefits, state and local aid, and the
GOP-sought liability shield against lawsuits.

"We do know that we know Him, if we keep His commandments.”
1 John 2:3​

Willful Sins
“For if we sin willfully after that we have received the knowledge of the truth, there remaineth no more sacrifice for sins, but a certain fearful looking for of judgment and fiery indignation, which shall devour the adversaries.” Hebrews 10:26-27
​
12-31-16, Dr Henry Morris -- This is one of the most controversial passages of Scripture because of its apparent conflict with passages that teach salvation by grace entirely apart from the law or any form of works (e.g., Ephesians 2:8-9; Titus 3:5), and absolute security in salvation to those who belong to Christ (e.g., John 10:28-29; Romans 8:35-39).
 
Actually, many passages warn against deliberate acts of sin by Christians. “He that saith, I know him, and keepeth not his commandments, is a liar” (1 John 2:4). “They profess that they know God; but in works they deny him” (Titus 1:16).

 
Clearly, there are dozens of “proof texts” on both sides of this question, and it cannot be settled by citing a cliché or two in a brief study like this. There can be no real contradiction in God’s Word, however, so the Lord must have had a good reason for inspiring this apparent paradox in His book. ​
  1. On the one hand, it is vital for every true believer in Christ to know that He is saved and has eternal life. “These things have I written unto you that believe on the name of the Son of God; that ye may know that ye have eternal life” (1 John 5:13).
  2. On the other hand, it is deadly dangerous for a person merely to think he or she is saved when there is no evidence of a changed life.

​Such Scriptures as our text give sober warning that professing Christians have no basis for any assurance of salvation if they do not obey His words.
“Hereby we do know that we know Him, if we keep His commandments” (1 John 2:3). Therefore, “examine yourselves, whether ye be in the faith” (2 Corinthians 13:5). Archives of Henry Morris, III here

Scripture for Today, 12-15-20: Now's the Day!

12/15/2020

​​The Urgency of Salvation
“For he saith, I have heard thee in a time accepted, and in the day of salvation have I succoured thee: behold, now is the accepted time; behold, now is the day of salvation.” 

2 Corinthians 6:2

Perhaps the most deadly sin of the unbeliever is that of procrastination. Satisfied with his current life, he neglects his spiritual need. Even if he understands the gospel and realizes his need of salvation, he still puts off a decision.

But it is always dangerous to count too strongly on tomorrow. “Whereas ye know not what shall be on the morrow. For what is your life? It is even a vapour, that appeareth for a little time, and then vanisheth away” (James 4:14). The sin of procrastination may easily become the sin of negligence, then of indifference, and finally the unforgivable sin of irrevocable rejection and unbelief. “My spirit shall not always strive with man” (Genesis 6:3). This warning was true in the antediluvian world and it is certainly as true today, when we have far more knowledge ​and evidence of God’s truth and His will than people did in the days of Noah.
​“To day if ye will hear his voice, harden not your heart” (Psalm 95:7-8). This warning of the psalmist was considered so important that the writer of Hebrews quoted it three times (Hebrews 3:7-8, 15; 4:7). Such an emphasis suggests there is indeed great danger in resisting God’s call to salvation. There may be another opportunity, but it is presumptuous and dangerous to impose too long on God’s patient mercy.

Today is the day of salvation. The accepted time is now! “Of how much sorer punishment, suppose ye, shall he be thought worthy, who hath trodden under foot the Son of God, and hath counted the blood of the covenant, wherewith he was sanctified, an unholy thing, and hath done despite unto the Spirit of grace?...It is a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the living God” (Hebrews 10:29, 31).

Gov. Newsom said stay–at–home orders and business shutdowns and restrictions are similar to those established in March 2020 when California was among the first states to take action in their attempt to lessen the spread of the Covid virus. This time there is a hitch: At least two sheriffs of counties totaling more than 5 million people say they won't enforce the restrictions. "The Riverside County sheriff's department will not be blackmailed, bullied, or used as muscle against ... residents in the enforcement of the governor's orders," Sheriff Chad Bianco said.
December U.S. Travel Restrictions By State–Christmas

12/3/20, Forbes -- Covid stay home orders ... December, the key takeaways are:
  • the number of states with travel restrictions has increased (from 18 to 22). California, Minnesota, Oregon and Washington State more recently implemented state-wide travel restrictions.
  • 28 states still don’t have any travel restrictions in place, even with some of the highest infection rates in the country (for example, North Dakota).

Covid: Vaccine or Vit D?

Vitamin D & Ivermectin Better Solutions to COVID than Vaccines
People are dying, but what are they dying from?

Vaccine isn't needed for an easily treated disease, and the cover-up of this fact is damning. 
​ It's a terrible crime.
~~~


12-9-20, Dr. Mark Sircus --  What is the cause of the recent high numbers of American deaths? Is it the Covid virus that is doing hundreds of thousands of people in, or is it medical ignorance and medical malpractice? Ignorance is deadly in medicine and is usually sourced in arrogance and pharmaceutical greed and power. [Note: Apparently ignorance on the part of President Trump who strongly supports the Covid vaccine.🙁--Annette]​

The combination of  Vitamin D & Ivermectin will run circles around any vaccine that comes out because no vaccine treats the already seriously ill. The University of Texas Health Science Center and the Eastern Virginia Medical School explain vaccine efficacy for already sick people drops to zero. However, with Vit D & Ivermectin in play, no vaccine is needed. The governments are wasting their money and playing Nazi-style medicine.  By analyzing existing studies, they found Ivermectin is:
  • 60% effective in late treatment
  • 91% effective in early treatment
  • 98% effective in pre-exposure prophylaxis
  • 87% effective in post-exposure prophylaxis

Ivermectin is a Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved antiparasitic drug used to treat several neglected tropical diseases. According to the NIH, Ivermectin has been widely used and has demonstrated an excellent safety profile. It acts by inhibiting the host importin alpha/beta-1 nuclear transport proteins, which are part of a critical intracellular transport process that viruses hijack to enhance infection by suppressing the host antiviral response.
​
  • Pierre Kory, M.D., Associate Professor of Medicine at St. Luke’s Aurora Medical Center, delivers emotional testimony during the Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee hearing. "Here is the near "miraculous" solution to COVID-19 that should resolve all the divisions [Ivermectin]. How can anyone (except those who care only for profit) disagree?"
  • Dr. Chris Martenson reviewed the study and his analysis of Ivermectin was that it's medical malpractice not to use it for COVID.
  • A collaborative study led by the Biomedicine Discovery Institute (BDI) of Monash University in Melbourne, Australia, with the Peter Doherty Institute for Infection and Immunity (Doherty Institute), showed that Ivermectin has antiviral activity, in vitro testing, against the virus that causes COVID-19 (SARS-CoV-2).
  • Antiviral Research's journal reporteded, "To test the antiviral activity of Ivermectin against SARS-CoV-2, we infect the cells and then add Ivermectin. The supernatant and cell granules were harvested on days 0-3 and analyzed for RNA replication of the new coronavirus. At 24 hours, there was a 93% reduction in viral RNA present in the supernatant (indicative of released virions) of samples treated with Ivermectin."​

Natural Medicines are Safer:
  • Vitamin D is better and safer than vaccines. Vit D is more affordable with no side-effects, no risk, no need for intense refrigeration, no mask or lock-downs needed.
  • National Library of Medicine reports that a Single Large Dose of Vitamin D Could be Used as a Means of Coronavirus Disease 2019 Prevention and Treatment. It has been shown that low Vit D level is associated with a viral infection, and Vit D supplementation is beneficial for people infected with viruses, such as HIV and hepatitis C virus. [1]
Adults taking one 50,000 IU capsule of Vitamin D3 every two weeks is optimal level for good health. A 50,000 IU capsule is the equivalent of amount of vitamin D from sunbathing for 3 days in a sunny climate. The skin produces approximately 10,000 IU vitamin D in response to 20–30 minutes of full body summer sun exposure — that's 50 times more than the US government’s recommendation of 200 IU per day. [Note: I have been on 50,000 iu D3 for three years - one capsule per week. I use Amazon's 100 caps, $23. I haven't been sick even once, I'm 77. -- 😎Annette [2]]

Sun exposure has been demonized by dermatologists. They prefer you cover up with chemicals that are now officially known to get into users blood streams. The sun and vitamin D are essential if you want to avoid cancer -  yet mainstream medicine suggests the opposite.

The Covid vaccine isn't what's been reported; even the mainstream liberal leftist press, CNBC warned: "Doctors say 'CDC should warn people the side effects from Covid vaccine shots won’t be a walk in the park'." [3]

Funny Words You Probably Don't Know
10-15-20, ReadersDigest -- "Cabotage" does not mean to sabotage someone or thing; the real definition - transport of goods and passengers between two places in the same country, or the right to do so. Originally, it only referred to coastal travel between ports, but the definition has expanded to include travel by air, railway, and by road. More strange words:

Friendlily - No, it’s not misspelled, it’s right. The definition: to do something in a friendly way. For example: “He friendlily questioned my use of the word friendlily.”
Dongle - It’s a piece of hardware that connects a computer to another device.

Pronk - A pronk is a weak or foolish individual.

Abear - Not the grizzly, terrifying kind! This word has nothing to do with animals. We’ll give you a second guess. Abear means to endure or put up with, which means you could feasibly say: “I abeared this encounter with a bear!” 

More here: words that don’t mean what you think they’d mean.
Bigly - ​adverb meaning doing something in a big way. [President Trump was ridiculed for using this word in his campaign - but again - he was right.]
  • Their gifts made the children smile bigly. 
  • Aaron was tall for his age, and bigly built.
  • Waves pounded bigly against our starboard side.
  • She pronounces her opinions bigly, as if they are divine mandates.
​As adjective: pleasantly habitable:
"A settlement of modest but bigly homes."

“Faithless Electors” Rogues?

12/13/2020

​Electoral College Votes Monday, Dec 14, 2020
What about “Faithless Electors” Rogues?
​Could They Hand President Trump The Win?

12-12-20, When voters went to the polls on Nov 3, 2020, they were actually casting ballots for a slate of electors. The 538 people who vote in the Electoral College are not legally bound to vote the same way as the popular vote in that state. If they think the vote was wrong or should not be followed through in some way, in the past, they voted however they wanted and defied their state's popular vote result. So if they feel the fraud has been proven, they have a legal right — if not a duty — to vote their conscience and they could absolutely vote to re-elect President Trump.
​
However, in July 2020 a unanimous Supreme Court ruling stiffened the rights of states to replace rogues who refuse to cast their votes for the presidential candidate they're pledged to support. 

From the NY Post: [1]

"All 29 of Florida’s electors are bound to vote for Pres Trump and VP Pence on Monday, Dec. 14, 2020. The same scenario will play out across the country. New York, for example has 29 Electoral College votes and will probably cast them for Biden/Harris. Then as a formality, Congress will meet in joint session on Jan. 6, 2021 for the official tally of the votes.That’s what's supposed to happen — and what almost always does, without a hitch or surprise. However, that’s where “faithless electors” could come in — rogues who vote for someone else, or who abstain entirely. Historically it's happened 85 times. Most of the faithlessness happened long ago, including a mass defection in 1836 when 23 Virginia electors revolted. And it happened in 2016, when 10 electors went rogue — and seven of those votes actually stuck.

What's preventing individual electors from going rogue & voting how they please, once they are appointed this time? A number of states have laws that punish or prohibit electors from voting against the candidate they pledged to back. [Note: I could not find what - if any - fine or punishment would be imposed this year if electors go rogue refusing to vote for Biden. -- Annette

Election experts are still worried about the talk of legislatures going rogue.

Tensions
The Apostle Jude said: "Beloved, when I gave all diligence to write unto you of the common salvation, it was needful for me to write unto you, and exhort you that ye should earnestly contend for the faith which was once delivered unto the saints. For there are certain men crept in unawares, who were before of old ordained to this condemnation, ungodly men, turning the grace of our God into lasciviousness, and denying the only Lord God, and our Lord Jesus Christ. I will therefore put you in remembrance, though ye once knew this, how that the Lord, having saved the people out of the land of Egypt, afterward destroyed them that believed not."

Jude 1:3-5, 6-14 

12-13-20, This week's prophecy update from Ohio USA; Brother John Haller reports on the tension everyone feels. The unease. The seeming lack of awareness. The ignorance. So many who are walking down a path into certain eternal disaster many because of false teaching of apostate preachers:

Apostate preachers are people who have known the way of truth; but then departed “from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits, and doctrines of devils; speaking lies in hypocrisy; having their conscience seared with a hot iron.” 1 Tim. 4:1-2

Also, the USA election fraud, the Covid virus scare, the vaccine, the Middle East and much more here: 

​One hour thirty-seven minute video here

"Likewise also these filthy dreamers defile the flesh, despise dominion, and speak evil of dignities. Yet Michael the archangel, when contending with the devil he disputed about the body of Moses, durst not bring against him a railing accusation, but said, "The Lord rebuke thee." But these speak evil of those things which they know not: but what they know naturally, as brute beasts, in those things they corrupt themselves. Woe unto them! for they have gone in the way of Cain, and ran greedily after the error of Balaam for reward and perished in the gainsaying of Core."

v14-15 "Behold, the Lord cometh with ten thousands of His saints, To execute judgment upon all, and to convince all that are ungodly among them of all their ungodly deeds which they have ungodly committed, and of all their hard speeches which ungodly sinners have spoken against Him."

Covid Report from Dr Hodkinson: Outrageous!

12/13/2020

 
Picture

Message from highly respected and member of Medical Biotechnology Company from Cambridge, Dr Hodkinson about outrageous political handling of Covid
'STOP BEHAVING LIKE IGNORANT LEMMINGS!'

11-8-20, Dr. Roger Hodkinson Addresses* The Edmonton Council Chambers and Public Services Committee meeting (the audio from which is currently gaining traction on YouTube), Dr. Hodkinson says:
​“The bottom line is there is utterly unfounded public hysteria driven by the media and politicians. It’s outrageous. This is the greatest hoax ever perpetrated on an unsuspecting public. [COVID-19] is nothing more than a bad flu season. This is not Ebola. It’s not SARS. It’s politics playing medicine, and that’s a very dangerous game.” He said: 
  • No action of any kind is needed, other than what happened during last year’s flu season: “If we felt ill, we stayed home, we took chicken noodle soup, we didn’t visit granny, we decided when we would return to work; we didn’t need anyone to tell us.”
  • “Masks are utterly useless” - “There is no evidence base for their effectiveness whatsoever. Seeing these people walking around like lemmings obeying, without any knowledge base, to put the mask on their face.”
Picture
  • “Social Distancing is also Useless” - “COVID is spread by aerosols, which travel 30 meters-or-so before landing. Closures of Schools and Businesses have had such Terrible consequences. Every where should be open tomorrow.”
  • “Positive Test Results DO NOT mean a clinical Infection” -  “All testing should stop, unless you’re presenting to hospital with some respiratory problem … it’s driving public hysteria, and all testing should stop.”
  • “All that should be done is to protect the vulnerable.” - “And I would remind you all that using the provinces [Alberta’s] own statistics, the risk of death under 65 is 1 in 300,000. You’ve got to get a grip on this. The scale of the response … with no evidence for it, is utterly ridiculous.
  • “Suicides, business closures, [cancelled] funerals, weddings, etc., etc. — it’s simply outrageous.” – “It’s just another bad flu, and [people] have got to get their minds around that.”
Picture
Conclusion: “Let people make their own decisions. You should be totally out of the business of medicine. You’re being led down the garden path by the chief medical officer of health in this province. I’m absolutely outraged that this has reached this level. It should all stop tomorrow. Thank you very much.”

12-11-20, Wayne Dupree -- The members of SCOTUS are gutless cowards. They’ve refused to hear the Texas election fraud lawsuit which includes twenty-plus states, and over 100 elected officials showing support for it.
That case was an outpouring of angst from a major chunk of the country and they passed on it like we were asking them to rule on broken toilet flushers or something.
What’s the point of having a SCOTUS if they won’t even HEAR evidence in a case where 74++ million Americans feel disenfranchised and as if their votes don’t matter? Apparently the Constitution isn’t worth the paper it was written on.

...“Texas GOP chair says in light of Supreme Court tossing out Texas case, “Perhaps law-abiding states should bond together and form a Union of states that will abide by the constitution.”

The Good Fight 
“I have fought a good fight, I have finished my course, I have kept the faith.” 

2 Timothy 4:7

12-12-20, It is with a heavy heart that we announce the passing of Dr. Henry Morris III, the former president of Institute for Creation Research in Dallas TX. On Dec 12, 2020, after a brief battle with Covid, Dr. Morris passed onto Jesus. 
​____________
11-11-20, Dr Henry M. Morris, PhD -- The beautiful National World War II Memorial in the nation’s capital was dedicated in 2004, honoring the more than 400,000 who gave their lives in that conflict (including the writer’s younger brother). This particular holiday, Veteran's Day, of course, originally known as Armistice Day, had been established many years before to commemorate the end of World War I and to honor the veterans of that war.

There have been many other wars in our nation’s history and many who have served and many who have died. They all “have fought a good fight” and “kept the faith” of our nation’s commitment to establish “liberty and justice for all” and to maintain this ideal in every generation. They fully merit our honor and heartfelt gratitude.

​There is another good fight going on, of course, every day in the life of each believing Christian.
The apostle Paul never served as a soldier in any human army, but he was often called on to “endure hardness, as a good soldier of Jesus Christ” (2 Timothy 2:3). As a matter of fact, each of us must remember that “unto you it is given in the behalf of Christ, not only to believe on him, but also to suffer for his sake” (Philippians 1:29).

That suffering may be actual persecution, or even injury or death on a battlefield, but it could also be poverty or sickness or some other “messenger of Satan” (2 Corinthians 12:7) sent to test us and alienate us from the Lord. But then we can hear the Lord say, as with Paul: “My grace is sufficient for thee: for my strength is made perfect in weakness” (2 Corinthians 12:9).
Whatever comes, may God help us to be able to say in that day: “I have fought a good fight, I have finished my course, I have kept the faith.” Source [Thank you, Brother Henry, you will be sorely missed. -- Annette]

ARMY VS NAVY FOOTBALL GAME
President Trump Flipped Coin
​December 12, 2020

12-12-20, At West Point, New York today President Trump flipped the coin to begin the 121st game between Army and Navy; the first contest played at a home stadium since 1943. Those in attendance will forever cherish the memory of seeing perhaps the most pro-military president in American history toss the coin, commander in chief, President Donald Trump. As he entered stadium the spectators cheered of 'USA, USA, USA!" A few notable happenings of the historic American era:
  • First game was in 1890
  • Benjamin Harrison was in his second year of his term as the 23rd president
  • Early in the year, Wyoming and Idaho were admitted as the 43rd and 44th states.
  • Ellis Island wouldn’t open for more than another year (Jan. 1, 1892).

The Midshipmen of Navy hold a 61-52-7 head-to-head edge and snapped Army's Black Knights three-year winning streak with a 31-7 win in 2019. However, today the winner was Army 15, Navy 0
