God is God

God is God

God is God and besides Him, there is no other. He is the Holy Other, the omnipotent, omniscient, omnipresent Lord of all creation. Those acquainted with Him know that God is above and beyond all our finite minds can grasp and yet, He is our Father who understands us better than we can even hope to understand ourselves. He is our Creator God and the sustainer of all things and is perfectly holy and just. God has demonstrated His love for us in that while we were yet sinners, He sent His Son to redeem us and to use us in the full and rich life of His Kingdom.His justice being tempered with longsuffering and mercy; He is concerned with our daily living and that we may find in His companionship the guidance and strength we need in the difficult details and practical problems of our lives.God is the center of His Book which was given to us to learn of Him. In it, we learn of how He revealed Himself to the prophets and made known His character and demands of His people. We learn of His revelation through His Son, Christ Jesus, who so fully revealed the moral characteristics of God that He and He alone could claim deity Himself.
Philip said, "Lord, show us the Father and that will be enough for us."Jesus answered: "Don't you know me, Philip, even after I have been among you such a long time? Anyone who has seen me has seen the Father. How can you say, 'Show us the Father'? Don't you believe that I am in the Father, and that the Father is in me? The words I say to you are not just my own. Rather, it is the Father, living in me, who is doing his work. Believe me when I say that I am in the Father and the Father is in me; or at least believe on the evidence of the miracles themselves. I tell you the truth, anyone who has faith in me will do what I have been doing. He will do even greater things than these, because I am going to the Father. And I will do whatever you ask in my name, so that the Son may bring glory to the Father. You may ask me for anything in my name, and I will do it. John 14:8-14 (NIV) We talk about Him, read about Him, hear about Him, pray to Him, sing praises to Him and see movies about Him. But do we know God in our own personal experience? Is He a remote ideal or is He real to us? Do we feel His presence and know of His personal interest in us?To know God on a personal, intimate level is not the same as knowing all about Him. But what sincere believing Christians claim is that we have experienced God in our lives and know that He loves His creatures and desires that we recognize His great love. The God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob is our God.Before anything began, God was. Before worlds had beginning, He was from everlasting to everlasting. God was, God is, and God always shall be. Man has difficulty accepting this truth. Since creation, man has been trying to match wits with His creator. And so God has been busy teaching mankind that He is God and besides Him there is no other. He is God alone. This is the lesson He has been teaching us since we went astray from Him. He has been busy breaking down high places, exalting low valleys, casting down imaginations and pride, that we might know that He is God alone. There is no one else to turn to who can meet our every need. The TeacherHe was an exceptional teacher,
Had received the highest degree.
From the College of Life Experience
He earned his Ph.D.He taught what it meant to live
A life of self-sacrifice.
He was totally devoted to others,
Though He paid an exorbitant price.He was one solitary life who
From a grace procured from above,
Sacrificed so much of Himself
Motivated by nothing but love.He was wholly and solely committed,
Honor bond to set men free.
So He died on Calvary's cross that day,
To redeem all humanity.He was ridiculed, hurt and abused,
Profaned and labeled as odd.
Men thought they could kill the Teacher;
Didn't know He was man and God.Yes, He was indeed "The Teacher,"
And "The Teacher" He will forever be;
For none who lives or has died
Can compare to such as He.SLWRev. Saundra L. Washington, D.D., is an ordained clergywoman, veteran social worker, and Founder of AMEN Ministries.

Iesa and Jesus in the Pyramid

Iesa and Jesus in the Pyramid

The Sun god, Mithras, was the most widely worshipped deity in the Roman Empire in the first century when Christianity was first forming. Mithras was called the Son of God, the light of the world, he was a redeemer and savior and his birthday was celebrated on December twenty-fifth. He eventually died and was buried in a cave and was resurrected three days later. Sound familiar? Constantine is said to have converted to Christianity but that is pure 'Spin' from the editor of the Bible. He was a Mithras worshipper and they are Heliopolitans or Luciferians just like Hitler and his 'torch-bearer' crap. IESA is in Iesoos of the fish symbol and IXOYE as well as many other pre-Christian things they appropriated; which the Father of Biblical Archaeology says shows the Bible is a 'Phoenician literary legacy'. It is not the first time you have heard about it.Iesa also can be shown in Zeus and Hijaz or even Giza or Gizeh when you understand the aspirant 'H' which still allows people to pronounce Jesus as Hey-soos or Julio as Who-lio. The lack of 'J' in most pre-Christian alphabets is important and we can learn a lot about words when we take out the vowels and look for doubling or reversing consonants. I think doubling shows a removal from the original so we see Bible and Babel and Byblos are all from BL or Bel and Ba'al whose city or 'bek' is very ancient indeed.'So a Jew includes all those noble arch-tectons (see Septuagint) who built the Pyramid - that means all elites. And elites have been known to use their FLOCK as sword or cannon fodder. Hitler learned about this ancient culture of Wotan, Iesa, the Vaner and the Gaedhils who are the builders of the Pyramid in pre-Hyksos time.'"Conor Newman, an archaeology lecturer at the National University of Ireland at Galway, located the subterranean temple of Tara. Since 1992, Newman has been working on the Hill of Tara preparing a survey of the area for the state-funded Discovery Program. He found the Tara monument using an underground radar device. 'It fills a very important place in the jigsaw because it allows us to make sense of the distribution of other monuments all around it,' says Newman.1The Discovery Program, set up under the auspices of the Heritage Council, carried out a survey of the Hill of Tara between 1992 and 1996 when Mr. Newman was director.When Mr. Newman moved to Galway he continued to be involved in the project. Using sophisticated technology, he and his team of experts mapped what was underground. Like Theseus, they seek the secrets of the labyrinth-dwelling Mino-Taur, the King of Tara. The work is slow and tedious, because it has yielded such a huge amount of information.What they uncovered eventually at the crown of the hill was a huge, oval-shaped monument measuring about 170 meters at its widest point. Around it are 300 postholes measuring two meters wide. Evidence indicates this `Crown' (tiara) of Tara was constructed through an enormous effort. 300 towering oak posts once surrounded the hill.'We think it probably dates from 2500 to 2300 BC and still had a big physical presence even after the posts were taken out or rotted,' Mr. Newman said.2This is the approximate time of Abraham, the "son of Terah" who became the patriarch of Judaism, Christianity and Islam (the three religions at the root of the holy War on Terror).His "Oaks of Mamre" were well known and long revered.3 Credible evidence of them has never been discovered in the Holy Land. However, in Ireland clear evidence is found at Tara.Legend says Abraham's oaks existed from the beginning of the world, and used to be green and bear leaves until his descendent Jesus died, when it and all sacred oaks were cut down.Jesus (called Pan-Tara, `god of Tara') is known in ancient Irish history as Iessa, a name derived from I.A. or E.A. (pronounced Eye-a), the Sumerian creator god who was portrayed wearing a fish suit. Lord Melchizedek, the Pope-king of Jerusalem (Ire-u-salem) and forerunner of Christ who initiated Abraham and his wife, Sarah,4 is equated with E.A. The Irish called him the sun god Fin (an Irish name for the Sun), a pun on fish. The Irish are called the Children of the Sun, because in Egypt Ra, the Ray or the Ra-Eye is the Sun. Ra's symbol is an eye. Hence, the term Iris or Irish.Fin (E.A.) presided over the Tara assembly, as a Druid in strangely flowered garments, and with a double-pointed head-dress and bearing in his hand a book. His two-headed miter of fishy form, his upright rod, spotted or checkered garment and basket in hand, are symbols that align him with E.A. His column (i, eye) or pillar of Tara is remembered as the Tree of Life of numerous traditions." (2)I wrote a book before 1992 called Bacon and the Bard that includes an underground complex in Tara Hill which may have been the world's first man-made Pyramid. Are they intent on keeping us in the dark and treating us like mushrooms for some ulterior reason? Mushrooms thrive on manure but humans perform better when provided firsthand information rather than manipulative, trite and false statistics that compare us against others. We must authenticate authority and it must demonstrate a creative and loving purpose before we entitle it to lead us into the vast horizons of creative universe which aren't (and never were) limited by some Malthusian economic model. They also aren't limited by the potential to destroy us, when you consider biotechnology, nanotechnology, mind-control, robots with human and other biological components as well as the usual greed and power needs of insecure deviates.In correspondence around the middle of 2005 I have been privy to some detailed calculations of fellow author Gary Osborn. The gist of the matter has to do with the earth axis and King's Chamber alignment. Gary seems to think they thought the earth axis was stationary at some point and I will continue to get his clarification on the issue. I see it as a way they doubled the Harmonic at the main mode on the Earth Energy Grid when he says the model had the King's Chamber alignment come back at the same point when superimposed on the exterior and capstone alignment. I think the axis is fully encapsulated through its total Wander Path or sidereal chart that takes 25,864 years to complete.Author of many books available at http://www.lulu.com and http://www.World-Mysteries.com, CDs of these books will be the least expensive way to get them. I am a regular columnist in a few Ezines or Journals and many people are putting my articles up in the most gratifying places including home educational resources and The London Stock Exchange. Who knows maybe knowledge will soon be available everywhere?

Should Professional Athletes Be Glorifying God And Jesus On Their Public Platforms?

Should Professional Athletes Be Glorifying God And Jesus On Their Public Platforms?

Recently I have run across quite a few Christians who seem to be offended whenever any of the professional athletes get on TV or the radio and publicly give God and Jesus all the praise, honor and glory for all of their accomplishments in their personal lives as well as all of their success on the athletic field.I have heard that many Christians state that a person's spiritual beliefs should be considered a personal matter and that these athletes should not be talking about God and Jesus on their "public platforms." The most notable example has to be Kurt Warner when he was playing for the St. Louis Rams.Several years ago when the Rams won the Super Bowl, Warner was interviewed right there in the middle of the football stadium for all of the fans to see what he was going to say along with the rest of the people watching the event on TV. The first thing Warner says before he even gets into the details of what just happened in the game is that he had to give all the praise, honor and glory to his Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. And the whole world heard it - whether they liked it or not!Should professional athletes be using their public platforms to talk about their personal beliefs in God and Jesus or should this be something they should keep to themselves and their close personal friends and loved ones?I personally believe that these professional athletes should be using their public platforms to talk about God and Jesus - even if it means offending others about it. I believe that not only is God and Jesus happy with these athletes doing this - but that God actually wants them to do it!As Christians, we should all be supporting these professional athletes for taking a stand for God and Jesus on their public platforms. These athletes have been given an unique position in the Body of Christ to testify about God and Jesus. Not many Christians have a (public platform) that can reach millions of people with their testimonies like these professional athletes have. As a result of this unique position - I believe that God is wanting these athletes to take advantage of this "window" to reach as many people as He possibly can before Jesus comes back to our earth for His second coming. The Bible says that the end will not come until the gospel has been preached to all of the world.I personally believe that God Himself has arranged for this "window" to be given to some of these professional athletes so that He can reach millions of people across the world with His message of eternal salvation through His Son Jesus Christ. I believe that this particular window is one of the avenues God is using to reach the world for the gospel before the end finally comes with the second coming of His Son to our earth.The Bible tells us not to "touch" God's anointed ones. Any Christian who is "attacking" some of these professional athletes for being willing to go public with their testimonies for God and Jesus may be treading on very dangerous ground with God the Father. I believe that many of these professional athletes are some of God's "anointed ones" in this last day and hour - and any personal "attacks" being made by other Christians - especially if those attacks are being made public - may be "touching" some of God's anointed ones.For a good detailed explanation as to why God is wanting these professional athletes to go public with their testimonies about Him and His Son and all the appropriate Scripture verses to back it all up - go to http://www.bible-knowledge.com/Athletes-glorifying-God.html for a free copy of a very good article defending all of the professional athletes who are willing to have enough courage to talk about God and Jesus on the public platforms that have been given to each of them by God Almighty Himself.Article written by Michael Bradley, author of over 100 articles which can be found at http://www.bible-knowledge.com.
