BACK DOOR TO REMOVAL OF SECOND AMENDMENT???

Folks, when I see stuff like this and think of the possible hellish agendas being worked out in back room deals, do we pray for our enemies' well-being?  Or do we pray for their demise??  If its for their well-being, I guess I have a LONG way to go....... to becoming Christ-like, because I would rather use the last ounce of lead pulled from the ground to place it squarely between their eyes in a supersonic fashion, than to use it to balance the tires to drive to DC to protest this action.......

Children of hell:


(Gulagbound.com) There are numerous alarming reasons why the US government and the military have been buying up all the ammo. Here’s one of them. Obama and the EPA just shut down the last lead smelting plant in the US. They raised the EPA regulations by 10 fold and it would have cost the plant $100 million to comply. You can own all the guns you want, but if you can’t get ammo, you are out of luck...

THIS IS PROOF THAT WE NEED A SAVIOR TO COME AND TAKE THE TRASH TO THE CURB.......

Folks, this is so pathetic, and the reason Christ must come and burn the fields.   The toxic pests have taken over and they will just keep breeding.  Anyone with a sense of discernment knew this was coming as an outgrowth of the PC and homosexual acceptance agendas - and our kids will not be safe within this generation.  The more righteous among the children of God truly will be praying night and day for deliverance.....

OUR CURRENT POPE AS THE FALSE PROPHET?

I think, with the bizarre statements out of Petrus Romanus' mouth as of late, that he may fit the bill:

   St. Hildegard (12th century) on the antichrist:

Antichrist will come from a land that lies between two seas, and will practise his tyranny in the East.� After his birth false teachers and doctrines will appear, followed by wars, famines, and pestilence. His mother will seldom let any one see him, and yet by magic. art, she will manage to gain the love of the people for him.�

He will be raised at different secret places and will be kept in seclusion until full grown.� When he has grown to full manhood he will publicly announce a hostile doctrine on religion.� He will lure and attract the people to himself by granting them complete exemption from the observance of all divine and ecclesiastical. commandments, by forgiving them their sins and requiring of them only their belief in his divinity.� He will spurn and reject baptism and the gospel.� He will open his mouth to preach contradiction.� He will say, `Jesus of Nazareth is not the son of. God, only a deceiver who gave himself out as God; and the Church instituted by him is only superstition'.� The true Christ has come in his person.� He will say, `I am the Saviour of the. world'.� Especially will he try to convince the Jews that he is the Messiah sent by God, and the Jews will accept him as such. �His doctrine of faith will be taken from the Jewish religion and seemingly will not differ much from the fundamental doctrine of Christianity for he will teach that there is one God who created the world, who is omniscient and knows the thoughts of man and is just, who rewards the obeyers of his commands and the trespassers he chastises, who raises all from the dead in due time.� This God has spoken through Moses and the Prophets, therefore the precepts of the Mosaic laws are to be kept, especially circumcision and keeping the Sabbath, yet by his moral laws he will try to reverse all order on earth.� Therefore he is called in Holy Writ the `Lawless One'.� He will think that he can change time and laws. He will discard all laws, morals and religious principles, to draw the world to himself.� He will grant entire freedom from the commandments of God and the Church and permit everyone to live as his passions dictate.� By doing so he hopes to be acknowledged by the people as deliverer from the yoke, and as the cause of prosperity in the world.� Religion he will endeavour to make convenient.� He will say that you need not fast and embitter your life by renunciation, as the people of former times did when they had no sense of God's goodness.� It will suffice to love God.� He. will let the people feast to their heart's content so that they will pity the unfortunate people of former centuries.� He will preach free love and tear asunder family ties.� He will scorn everything holy, and he will ridicule all graces of the Church with devilish mockery.� He will condemn humility and foster proud and gruesome dogmas.� He will tear down that which God has taught in the Old and New Testament and maintain sin and vice are not sin and vice.� Briefly he will declare the road to Hell is the way to Heaven.

WHAT OH-BUMMER AND EVERY OTHER DESPOT FEARS.......

This is a ray of hope for me......

SAMPSON, THE NAZARITE AS A TYPE FOR JESUS OF NAZARETH

I mentioned the long hair connection between Sampson and Jesus in a previous post.  Truly, there was something to it as they were sent to provide a form of salvation from those who oppressed Israel (and who currently are oppressing Israel).  In the latter sense, when Christ comes as a strong man to redeem Israel from the Palestinians (modern Phillistia) and associated ilk, there will be strong imagery at that event.

Here are some interesting thoughts on the matter:

2. To fulfill a type...

The type I am referring to, here, was Samson.
Please, read Judges, chapters thirteen to sixteen.
Samson was a type of Christ.
He ate honey out of the dead carcass of a Lion.  Judges fourteen (Revelation 5:5, Psalm 119:103)
He told riddles.  Judges fourteen (Like Jesus told parables—Ezekiel 17:2, Matthew thirteen)
He had a Nazarite vow…
“For, lo, thou shalt conceive, and bear a son; and no razor shall come on his head: for the child shall be a Nazarite unto God from the womb: and he shall begin to deliver Israel out of the hand of the Philistines.
Then the woman came and told her husband, saying, A man of God came unto me, and his countenance was like the countenance of an angel of God, very terrible: but I asked him not whence he was, neither told he me his name:  But he said unto me, Behold, thou shalt conceive, and bear a son; and now drink no wine nor strong drink, neither eat any unclean thing: for the child shall be a Nazarite to God from the womb to the day of his death.”  Judges 13:5-7
Like Samson, Jesus never drank wine or grape juice.  He was accused of drinking it (Matthew 11:19, Luke 7:34), and gave it to his Disciples.  (Matthew 26:27-29)  But, He never drank, Himself.  It was offered to him on the cross, “…but he received it not.”  (Mark 15:23)

[By the way, Jesus never came near a dead body that He didn't raise.  (See Numbers 6:9)]
 Since the only way someone knew that a man had a Nazarite vow was the length of their hair, the only difference between Samson and Jesus, at this point, concerning a  vow, is that the Scripture never says anything about Jesus' hair.

3.  To fulfill prophecy...

Although Psalm 44 has a direct reference to Israel, verse 15 refers to an individual…
“My confusion is continually before me, and the shame of my face hath covered me….”
Psalm 69 is the great prophetical chapter on the coming of Christ.  Please take time to read it.  You will be glad you did.  Here are two verses that deal with this subject.
“Because for thy sake I have borne reproach; shame hath covered my face.”  (Verse 7)
“Thou hast known my reproach, and my shame, and my dishonour: mine adversaries are all before thee.”  (Verse 19)
Here, read Isaiah 50:6 and Isaiah 53.
What shame and reproach did Jesus bear?  Was it only on Calvary?  Wasn't that reproach prophesied before he died—calling him “lowly” (Zechariah 9:9), and “meek” (Matthew 21:5) and of “no reputation”?  (Philippians 2:7) 
"Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus:  Who, being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God:  But made himself of no reputation, and took upon him the form of a servant, and was made in the likeness of men:  And being found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself, and became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross."  (Philippians 2:5-8)
How did Jesus humble himself?  Wasn’t it from and through the incarnation?  Wasn’t He humble all His life--learning obedience through the things He suffered?  (Hebrews 5:8)  The question comes in, here, when did He start bearing shame?  Didn’t He constantly please the Father, by always submitting to the dictates of Scripture?  Didn’t He say, “I do always those things that please him…”?  (John 8:29)
 Why was it necessary for Jesus to have long hair?   So, He could fulfill the types and prophecies about it.  How was that accomplished?  By fulfilling the law of God (found in Numbers six), concerning a Nazarite vow.
You might have an objection, here, saying that “It doesn’t say anywhere in Scripture that Jesus had a vow.  If He had a Nazarite vow, like the Apostle Paul took one, in Acts 21, we would know it.  So, that seals it, for me.”  You may be right, but Scripture doesn’t always say something, just because we want to know.  A lot of things that we don’t understand today, we will, later, in Glory.
Someone suggested, that if Jesus had a vow, when Judas turned him in to the authorities, instead of saying “…Whomsoever I shall kiss, that same is he…” (Matthew 26:48), Judas would have said “the man you are looking for is the man with the long hair.”
That may be true, but it was not uncommon, back then, for Jews to take a Nazarite vow (remember Paul).  And, don’t forget, it was after supper had ended, early in April.  (Matthew 26:30)  Maybe He slipped on his poncho because it was cool, in the evening, in the Mount of Olives, and decided to cover His head.
Though Jesus was a rugged carpenter, Scripture never indicates that His hair was ever untidy or unkempt.
Last, and most important, let’s say, for argument sake, that Jesus, like Sampson, had a Nazarite vow on him, from the womb.  When would that vow have ended?  According to Numbers chapter six, the priest offered “…a sin-offering, and…a burnt offering to make an atonement for him…” (verse 12), after the vow was done.  Should the spotless Lamb of God have a lamb offered for Him, for a “trespass-offering”?  May I remind you that Jesus was not a sinner; He was the Saviour.  "All the days of His Separation, he is holy unto the Lord."  (Numbers 6:8)  Jesus was holy all His life, and never was defiled.  Therefore, he never needed to cut His hair.  That is why I conclude that His vow would have lasted His entire life; until He made the atonement for our sin(s).  Truly, it’s a shame for a man to have long hair.  (I Corinthians 11:14)
“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.”  (Hebrews 12:2)
When did that shame begin?  At His Birth (Judges 13:7, Luke 1:31--please compare these two verses)?  Or, at His crucifiction? 

Numbers Six...

6:1 And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, 6:2 Speak unto the children of Israel, and say unto them, When either man or woman shall separate themselves to vow a vow of a Nazarite, to separate themselves unto the LORD: 6:3 He shall separate himself from wine and strong drink, and shall drink no vinegar of wine, or vinegar of strong drink, neither shall he drink any liquor of grapes, nor eat moist grapes, or dried. 6:4 All the days of his separation shall he eat nothing that is made of the vine tree, from the kernels even to the husk. 6:5 All the days of the vow of his separation there shall no razor come upon his head: until the days be fulfilled, in the which he separatethhimself unto the LORD, he shall be holy, and shall let the locks of the hair of his head grow. 6:6 All the days that he separateth himselfunto the LORD he shall come at no dead body. 6:7 He shall not make himself unclean for his father, or for his mother, for his brother, or for his sister, when they die: because the consecration of his God is upon his head. 6:8 All the days of his separation he is holy unto the LORD.6:9 And if any man die very suddenly by him, and he hath defiled the head of his consecration; then he shall shave his head in the day of his cleansing, on the seventh day shall he shave it. 6:10 And on the eighth day he shall bring two turtles, or two young pigeons, to the priest, to the door of the tabernacle of the congregation: 6:11 And the priest shall offer the one for a sin offering, and the other for a burnt offering, and make an atonement for him, for that he sinned by the dead, and shall hallow his head that same day. 6:12 And he shall consecrate unto the LORD the days of his separation, and shall bring a lamb of the first year for a trespass offering: but the days that were before shall be lost, because his separation was defiled.

6:13 And this is the law of the Nazarite, when the days of his separation are fulfilled: he shall be brought unto the door of the tabernacle of the congregation: 6:14 And he shall offer his offering unto the LORD, one he lamb of the first year without blemish for a burnt offering, and one ewe lamb of the first year without blemish for a sin offering, and one ram without blemish for peace offerings, 6:15And a basket of unleavened bread, cakes of fine flour mingled with oil, and wafers of unleavened bread anointed with oil, and their meat offering, and their drink offerings. 6:16 And the priest shall bringthem before the LORD, and shall offer his sin offering, and his burnt offering: 6:17 And he shall offer the ram for a sacrifice of peace offerings unto the LORD, with the basket of unleavened bread: the priest shall offer also his meat offering, and his drink offering. 6:18And the Nazarite shall shave the head of his separation at the door of the tabernacle of the congregation, and shall take the hair of the head of his separation, and put it in the fire which is under the sacrifice of the peace offerings. 6:19 And the priest shall take the sodden shoulder of the ram, and one unleavened cake out of the basket, and one unleavened wafer, and shall put them upon the hands of the Nazarite, after the hair of his separation is shaven: 6:20 And the priest shall wave them for a wave offering before the LORD: this is holy for the priest, with the wave breast and heave shoulder: and after that the Nazarite may drink wine. 6:21 This is the law of the Nazarite who hath vowed, and of his offering unto the LORD for his separation, beside that that his hand shall get: according to the vow which he vowed, so he must do after the law of his separation.

6:22 And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, 6:23 Speak unto Aaron and unto his sons, saying, On this wise ye shall bless the children of Israel, saying unto them, 6:24 The LORD bless thee, and keep thee:6:25 The LORD make his face shine upon thee, and be gracious unto thee: 6:26 The LORD lift up his countenance upon thee, and give thee peace. 6:27 And they shall put my name upon the children of Israel; and I will bless them.

WOW - LONG HAIR AND A "SIXTH SENSE"

I have always wondered about the likes of Sampson, Orrin Porter Rockwell and Jesus (and other Nazarenes) and what was the big deal about long hair.   I have always kept mine short and only once grew a beard out to where it was actually bushy.  That was just for a stunt to get one of my kids to finish a merit badge that he was dragging his feet on.  I hated the long, hot scratchy thing.

Many in the first dispensation had longer hair - or specifically beards.  Orrin Porter Rockwell was given a prophecy (I believe by Joseph Smith) that he would never perish so long as he never cut his hair/beard.  That was correct as OPR died an old man in Utah, even though he had many scrapes with death during his life.

Here is something that lends to this idea of long hair having mystical properties:

The Truth About Hair and Why Indians Would Keep Their Hair Long

United Truth Seekers
Thu, 08 Sep 2011 14:32 CDT

© Black Elk

This information about hair has been hidden from the public since the Viet Nam War .

Our culture leads people to believe that hair style is a matter of personal preference, that hair style is a matter of fashion and/or convenience, and that how people wear their hair is simply a cosmetic issue. Back in the Vietnam war however, an entirely different picture emerged, one that has been carefully covered up and hidden from public view.

In the early nineties, Sally [name changed to protect privacy] was married to a licensed psychologist who worked at a VA Medical hospital. He worked with combat veterans with PTSD, post traumatic stress disorder. Most of them had served in Vietnam.

Sally said, "I remember clearly an evening when my husband came back to our apartment on Doctor's Circle carrying a thick official looking folder in his hands. Inside were hundreds of pages of certain studies commissioned by the government. He was in shock from the contents. What he read in those documents completely changed his life. From that moment on my conservative middle of the road husband grew his hair and beard and never cut them again. What is more, the VA Medical center let him do it, and other very conservative men in the staff followed his example.

As I read the documents, I learned why. It seems that during the Vietnam War special forces in the war department had sent undercover experts to comb American Indian Reservations looking for talented scouts, for tough young men trained to move stealthily through rough terrain. They were especially looking for men with outstanding, almost supernatural, tracking abilities. Before being approached, these carefully selected men were extensively documented as experts in tracking and survival.

With the usual enticements, the well proven smooth phrases used to enroll new recruits, some of these Indian trackers were then enlisted. Once enlisted, an amazing thing happened. Whatever talents and skills they had possessed on the reservation seemed to mysteriously disappear, as recruit after recruit failed to perform as expected in the field.

Serious causalities and failures of performance led the government to contract expensive testing of these recruits, and this is what was found.

When questioned about their failure to perform as expected, the older recruits replied consistently that when they received their required military haircuts, they could no longer 'sense' the enemy, they could no longer access a 'sixth sense', their 'intuition' no longer was reliable, they couldn't 'read' subtle signs as well or access subtle extrasensory information.

So the testing institute recruited more Indian trackers, let them keep their long hair, and tested them in multiple areas. Then they would pair two men together who had received the same scores on all the tests. They would let one man in the pair keep his hair long, and gave the other man a military haircut. Then the two men retook the tests.

Time after time the man with long hair kept making high scores. Time after time, the man with the short hair failed the tests in which he had previously scored high scores.

Here is a Typical Test:

The recruit is sleeping out in the woods. An armed 'enemy' approaches the sleeping man. The long haired man is awakened out of his sleep by a strong sense of danger and gets away long before the enemy is close, long before any sounds from the approaching enemy are audible.

In another version of this test the long haired man senses an approach and somehow intuits that the enemy will perform a physical attack. He follows his 'sixth sense' and stays still, pretending to be sleeping, but quickly grabs the attacker and 'kills' him as the attacker reaches down to strangle him.

This same man, after having passed these and other tests, then received a military haircut and consistently failed these tests, and many other tests that he had previously passed.

So the document recommended that all Indian trackers be exempt from military haircuts. In fact, it required that trackers keep their hair long."

Comment:

The mammalian body has evolved over millions of years. Survival skills of human and animal at times seem almost supernatural. Science is constantly coming up with more discoveries about the amazing abilities of man and animal to survive. Each part of the body has highly sensitive work to perform for the survival and well being of the body as a whole.The body has a reason for every part of itself.

Hair is an extension of the nervous system, it can be correctly seen as exteriorized nerves, a type of highly evolved 'feelers' or 'antennae' that transmit vast amounts of important information to the brain stem, the limbic system, and the neocortex.

Not only does hair in people, including facial hair in men, provide an information highway reaching the brain, hair also emits energy, the electromagnetic energy emitted by the brain into the outer environment. This has been seen in Kirlian photography when a person is photographed with long hair and then rephotographed after the hair is cut.

When hair is cut, receiving and sending transmissions to and from the environment are greatly hampered. This results in numbing-out .

Cutting of hair is a contributing factor to unawareness of environmental distress in local ecosystems. It is also a contributing factor to insensitivity in relationships of all kinds. It contributes to sexual frustration.

Conclusion:

In searching for solutions for the distress in our world, it may be time for us to consider that many of our most basic assumptions about reality are in error. It may be that a major part of the solution is looking at us in the face each morning when we see ourselves in the mirror.

The story of Sampson and Delilah in the Bible has a lot of encoded truth to tell us. When Delilah cut Sampson's hair, the once undefeatable Sampson was defeated.

THE CANCER LIES EXPOSED - DR. LORRAINE DAY

This gal is it COMPLETELY down. 

The goons are in control of our healthscare system.  Its all lies and obfuscations - and we, the Latter-day Saints, of all people should be aware of it.  It is part of the networks of the Gads.

I love people who just lay it bare:

OBAMASCARE IS A SURVEILLANCE AND INFORMATION GRAB

Part of the gig of the anti-Christ is to control the minions and to destroy the last vestiges of personal freedom; to make the subjects dependent on, and loyal to, the state.  This is the objective and design of bummerscare.....

I raise my warning voice here; it is also a way to destroy your second amendment rights.  If your kid goes into the doctor and the doc asks if the kid is feeling a little down, meds will naturally be prescribed and they will try and get the kid on the psychotropic treadmill.  Once a diagnosis has been made, there are already provisions in the law so that a home can forcefully be searched for weapons and regular "visits" made by a government watcher.  Many vets with PTSD will be relieved of their second amendment rights under this pretext.

Here is my warning - DO NOT EVER let your children go see a doctor alone from this point forward!

NEVER admit that you, or a member of your household has ever had mental health issues.  Find alternative medicines and use those - but stay off the radar in this regard.  When they ask you what your income is, make up a lower number and mess with the system.  I mentioned on a previous post that I am VERY passive aggressive.  It comes from hanging out with all these Seattlites.....  We need to rage quietly against the machine in order to defeat it.  I do things like that in small ways.  Today, for example, I went to the Home Despot (who is all for the rainbow gay agenda) and made two separate transactions for under $3 each and put both on my credit card.  If there was any profit to be had in what I bought, it went negative as the credit transaction fee sucked it away.  For as openly gay as they are (and thus ant-nuclear family), I just did my part to knock their legs out from under them.  I will do nothing that is illegal, of course - but I will do as much as I can, as often as I can to slowly drain the life force from the beast.  If we could get thousands upon thousands of people to do the same, the beast would eventually have to retreat.  I do the same thing with the blood-sucking union I am forced to be a part of.  I just suck them dry and encourage as many others as I can to be a Beck Objector and starve the beast til the parasites are finally forced to crawl away as Billy Joel talked about.

So, here is what got me spun up:

ISRAEL -WARNING ON IRANIAN BOMB (THE DRUDGE REPORT)

Folks - when an entire nation threatens to blow you off the face of the earth, and they are close to achieving the capability to do so, it is time to play ball.  Israel does not pull punches - they are scrappy and determined to exist and survive as a nation and will use any means at their disposal in order to deter Iran.  I feel bad for the average citizen of that country (both countries, actually) who just simply want to live their lives in peace and love their families and have a peaceful, blessed existence.  And then, there are the nutty leaders - and the losers who vote for them.......   I am absolutely certain that the Israelis will never, in the next 1000 years, ever attempt to over-run Iran - nor threaten them in any other way - yet we have an entire country paranoid that this very thing will happen and that they need nukes to deter the inevitable.......  I guess the same thing could be said about the U.S........  Iran is a dust hole - who would want any of it?  At least the U.S. has some of the best agricultural prospects, lumber, clean water - and these days, black gold - and might be at least worth invading.  Iran?  Not so much......

So it is just a bunch of crazy freaks sitting around power-tripping on themselves and manipulating the masses to go along with it - not unlike what is going on here in the USofA.....

Here is a pic of how it might look:

ANCIENT MIKVEH/MIKVAH RESTORED NEAR TEMPLE MOUNT

Ancient Ritual Bath near Temple Mount to be Back in Use

An ancient mikve (ritual bath) near the Temple Mount will be renovated and reopened for use by women who wish to ascend the Temple Mount.

Ancient Mikveh

illustrative

MK Aliza Lavie (Yesh Atid), announced to the Knesset today (Thursday) that at last night’s meeting of the Committee on the Status of Women, during a discussion of the ritual baths in Israel, it was decided that an ancient mikve near the Temple Mount would be restored for use so that women could ascend the Temple Mount in ritual purity.
Ministry of Religious Affairs Chairman, Elhanan Glatt, revealed during the meeting that clear instructions had been given to the female bath attendants not to question women who visit the mikve as to their personal status.
“If a woman wants to enter the mikve in order to go up the Temple Mount, and even if there may be a halachic (Jewish law) issue involved, it is not within an attendant’s purview to prevent it,” Glatt stated.
Some ritual baths permit only married Jewish women to immerse themselves, in accordance with the standard practice in many modern-day Jewish communities. Other communities allow unmarried women to immerse as well.
The question of Jewish ascension to the Temple Mount continues to be controversial. The Temple Mount is the holiest place on earth according to Jewish tradition, and was the site of the First and Second Temples. As such, some rabbis say Jews should be encouraged to visit and pray at the holy site.
However, other rabbis say that Jews should not enter the Temple Mount until ancient practices have been brought back that would ensure they are in a state of ritual purity before stepping foot on the holy site.
In addition, today the Temple Mount is home to the Al-Aqsa mosque, and many Muslim worshipers and Arab leaders have expressed vehement opposition to Jews’ visits to the site, and have even attacked Jews who come to the area.

AUSSIE IS OUT OF LDSFF AND THE CHURCH

I think Aussie the head LDSFF apostate is finally out and the ever-so convincing final act is over.  He is finally leaving the Church so he can no longer feign the "wounded bird" routine to distract the gullible from his true intentions.  He has some cock and bull reasoning for it - and then he is gone.  Of course, all the other semi, or completely apostate folk are fawning over him - begging him to come back as part of the act.  That is one of the biggest pit of writhing snakes I have ever seen.  The good ones have all left, been kicked off, or haven't quite figured it out yet - but, if I had an account, I would be offering my condolences to other anti sites where he will be even more welcome and giving him a fine "kick in the pants" for a sendoff.

You might fool a few, but you cannot fool them all......

Next stop for the Midnight Apostasy Express is most likely JulesGP.  Folks, when you hang out with and fawn over goats long enough, you will begin to bleat like the rest of the herd.

NO MERCY WILL BE SHOWN

And we wonder why other nations would plot against us - that when we are brought to our knees, that they would then release biologics, nukes and many other forms of death against us??

Who gives us the right to spy on other nations to the extent that we do - let alone our own citizens without probable cause?  All nations spy on each other - that is a fact.  Even while in Flight Test, the FBI busted down the French in one of the stereotypical white panel vans stealing our down-linked flight data from a wide body first of model flight.  People want to know what the other people are doing.  Either this nation is paranoid - and really think the boogey man is out to get them, or they are not and it simply is about control to a level never before dreamed of.  I submit, that we would NEVER have had terrorist attacks to begin with had we NEVER stuck our business in other governments and screwed around with them to begin with.  I am sort of an isolationist - when it comes to international politics.  Pretty much, leave them alone, and they will leave you alone.  You would never go around your neighborhood poking your noses into other peoples' business without expecting a fight.  A few years back we moved into a neighborhood where the HOA board was out of control.  A few nazis moved in and hijacked the process - and it turned into a hypocritical nightmare.  In the end, I bought a junker, licensed it and parked it in the street, moving it every couple of days so it could not be towed legally.  Others did passive-aggressive stunts, as well.  Ordinary people had become slaves to these masters and there were many altercations.  It became a circus and the neighborhood became the joke of the town.  Finally, after much supplication, the worst offenders were prayed out of the neighborhood.

The US has become the "tyrant of the neighborhood" - and many threats have been leveled against us by countries that can do something serious about it.  I believe that what has been predicted will happen, will happen.  I look forward to being "rescued" by this intervention.  I do not care for the rescuers and their philosophies, but when the intervention happens, the cure will be just slightly better than the disease that has been contracted.....  For over a decade now, I have said that the people of Russia will be more free than we would be one day.  We are either there, or very close to that day.  There is a schism in the world - and I am not sure what the details of it are, but it is our goons (big corporations, banksters, general secret combos etc) against the Russian/Chinese goons.  Its coming to a head - and we are about to see fireworks.

Here is what got me spun up:

Well, maybe there was more to bummer's bow to Saudi royalty during his visit there.  They just cut diplomatic ties with the US.  This is no small act - considering we get 20+% of our oil from that country and they are our largest ally in the ME.  Things just seem to be getting stranger and stranger by the minute over there.

At the very least - fill your gas tanks, your heating oil tanks, your propane tanks this week.  It could be a bumpy ride for us, if they really end up making good on their threats:

Joseph Smith wrote:Oh! I beseech you to forward, go forward and make your calling and your election sure--and if any man preach any other gospel with that which I have preached, he shall be cursed.

And for people who just don't get it?  Well, I have a picture that is worth a thousand words.....:

THE MELDING OF EVIL AND GOOD - A RANT ON HALLOWEEN

I just got done watching the latest Lindsey Sterling youtube and it has another dark theme; dracula.

I am going to offend a lot of people here, especially the females and will come off as an old fuddy-duddy to many.  Of course, I do not care.  When you don't care what others think of you and what you do, it is extremely liberating.  The women's libbers and many others in parallel "liberation" movements ought to try it sometime.  Many who try and deviate outside these "movements" are stifled by the others who demand rigid conformance to their stated goals and objectives - and it just kills me as I LOL..... and mock them for their utter stupidity and nonsensical natures.

When it comes to Hallowed Eve'ning, I am staunchly against it.  I think people cruising around the halls of worship in witch attire and other costumes imitating or even glorifying anything that is evil or macabre - is JUST WRONG.  I am embarrassed when a visitor who has never set foot in one of our buildings comes rolling in as an invitee to a Halloween party and is greeted by 3 out of 4 women dressed up as witches and the complementary husband as Hogworts or some other practitioner of magic.  Yep - Stephanie Meyers is our prophetess and we adore that kind of thing as LDS.......   Come let us adore it.......  Bleche!!

Don't get me wrong - I am taking my two littlest kids to be a part of that socially progressive evening (in costumes that are innocuous, such as an Indian costume or a Cowboy costume), to beg for candy at stranger's homes and then threaten them with malfeasance if they do not pay up.  We will stop short of lighting the brown paper sack full of dog poop on fire on the front step - but you get the picture.  We have the most evil of ghouls in the White House doing some of the same to us via his buddies, the IRS.....  And make no mistake about it, it is pay up; or they can harrass you and then legally "burn your financial house down".......

Maybe I was just exposed to too much of that "soft evil" down in Brazil that ended up with so many people possessed and in dire spiritual states that I have no stomach for it.  Maybe I take the O.T. injunction against that kind of thing a little too seriously.  Maybe I think the Lord, when he spoke of the penalties for entertaining that kind of garbage, as being death - that I thought He was making a point about how He felt about the trash.  Maybe, just maybe, its part of what is wrong in the Church today??  Part of the reason there will be a cleansing.  If you want to celebrate death and the macabre, you might just get a healthy dose as it talks about in D&C 29, Section 45 and what Spencer, Menet and many others have spoken of.

For me?  No thanks!  Picture for a moment, what it will be like in Heaven.  Clean, pure, absence of filth and darkness.

Then watch this - and then you will get my point:

IS FUKUSHIMA WORMWOOD?

It is so very hard sometimes to tell if a prophecy has been fulfilled.  I really waffle on this one - as there was no direct correlation to something from the heavens other than a comet that happened to be cruising by coincidental to this EQ.  But this I can say; this thing is going to end up poisoning 1/3 of the waters of the world when its all said and done.  The Pacific is HUGE!

Also, I love seafood; especially salmon and tuna.  I think those days are over.....

28 Signs That The West Coast Is Being Absolutely Fried With Nuclear Radiation From Fukushima

By Michael Snyder, on October 21st, 2013

 

     

The map above comes from the Nuclear Emergency Tracking Center.  It shows that radiation levels at radiation monitoring stations all over the country are elevated.  As you will notice, this is particularly true along the west coast of the United States.  Every single day, 300 tons of radioactive water from Fukushima enters the Pacific Ocean.  That means that the total amouont of radioactive material released from Fukushima is constantly increasing, and it is steadily building up in our food chain.  Ultimately, all of this nuclear radiation will outlive all of us by a very wide margin.  They are saying that it could take up to 40 years to clean up the Fukushima disaster, and meanwhile countless innocent people will develop cancer and other health problems as a result of exposure to high levels of nuclear radiation.  We are talking about a nuclear disaster that is absolutely unprecedented, and it is constantly getting worse.  The following are 28 signs that the west coast of North America is being absolutely fried with nuclear radiation from Fukushima…
1. Polar bears, seals and walruses along the Alaska coastline are suffering from fur loss and open sores…

Wildlife experts are studying whether fur loss and open sores detected in nine polar bears in recent weeks is widespread and related to similar incidents among seals and walruses.
The bears were among 33 spotted near Barrow, Alaska, during routine survey work along the Arctic coastline. Tests showed they had “alopecia, or loss of fur, and other skin lesions,” the U.S. Geological Survey said in a statement.

2. There is an epidemic of sea lion deaths along the California coastline…

At island rookeries off the Southern California coast, 45 percent of the pups born in June have died, said Sharon Melin, a wildlife biologist for the National Marine Fisheries Service based in Seattle. Normally, less than one-third of the pups would die.   It’s gotten so bad in the past two weeks that the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration declared an “unusual mortality event.”

3. Along the Pacific coast of Canada and the Alaska coastline, the population of sockeye salmon is at a historic low.  Many are blaming Fukushima.
4. Something is causing fish all along the west coast of Canada to bleed from their gills, bellies and eyeballs.
5. A vast field of radioactive debris from Fukushima that is approximately the size of California has crossed the Pacific Ocean and is starting to collide with the west coast.
6. It is being projected that the radioactivity of coastal waters off the U.S. west coast could double over the next five to six years.
7. Experts have found very high levels of cesium-137 in plankton living in the waters of the Pacific Ocean between Hawaii and the west coast.
8. One test in California found that 15 out of 15 bluefin tuna were contaminated with radiation from Fukushima.
9. Back in 2012, the Vancouver Sun reported that cesium-137 was being found in a very high percentage of the fish that Japan was selling to Canada…

• 73 percent of mackerel tested

• 91 percent of the halibut

• 92 percent of the sardines

• 93 percent of the tuna and eel

• 94 percent of the cod and anchovies

• 100 percent of the carp, seaweed, shark and monkfish

10. Canadian authorities are finding extremely high levels of nuclear radiation in certain fish samples…

Some fish samples tested to date have had very high levels of radiation: one sea bass sample collected in July, for example, had 1,000 becquerels per kilogram of cesium.

11. Some experts believe that we could see very high levels of cancer along the west coast just from people eating contaminated fish…

“Look at what’s going on now: They’re dumping huge amounts of radioactivity into the ocean — no one expected that in 2011,” Daniel Hirsch, a nuclear policy lecturer at the University of California-Santa Cruz, told Global Security Newswire. “We could have large numbers of cancer from ingestion of fish.”

12. BBC News recently reported that radiation levels around Fukushima are “18 times higher” than previously believed.
13. An EU-funded study concluded that Fukushima released up to 210 quadrillion becquerels of cesium-137 into the atmosphere.
14. Atmospheric radiation from Fukushima reached the west coast of the United States within a few days back in 2011.
15. At this point, 300 tons of contaminated water is pouring into the Pacific Ocean from Fukushima every single day.
16. A senior researcher of marine chemistry at the Japan Meteorological Agency’s Meteorological Research Institute says that “30 billion becquerels of radioactive cesium and 30 billion becquerels of radioactive strontium” are being released into the Pacific Ocean from Fukushima every single day.
17. According to Tepco, a total of somewhere between 20 trillion and 40 trillion becquerels of radioactive tritium have gotten into the Pacific Ocean since the Fukushima disaster first began.
18. According to a professor at Tokyo University, 3 gigabecquerels of cesium-137 are flowing into the port at Fukushima Daiichi every single day.
19. It has been estimated that up to 100 times as much nuclear radiation has been released into the ocean from Fukushima than was released during the entire Chernobyl disaster.
20. One recent study concluded that a very large plume of cesium-137 from the Fukushima disaster will start flowing into U.S. coastal waters early next year…

Ocean simulations showed that the plume of radioactive cesium-137 released by the Fukushima disaster in 2011 could begin flowing into U.S. coastal waters starting in early 2014 and peak in 2016.

21. It is being projected that significant levels of cesium-137 will reach every corner of the Pacific Ocean by the year 2020.
22. It is being projected that the entire Pacific Ocean will soon “have cesium levels 5 to 10 times higher” than what we witnessed during the era of heavy atomic bomb testing in the Pacific many decades ago.
23. The immense amounts of nuclear radiation getting into the water in the Pacific Ocean has caused environmental activist Joe Martino to issue the following warning…

“Your days of eating Pacific Ocean fish are over.”

24. The Iodine-131, Cesium-137 and Strontium-90 that are constantly coming from Fukushima are going to affect the health of those living the the northern hemisphere for a very, very long time.  Just consider what Harvey Wasserman had to say about this…

Iodine-131, for example, can be ingested into the thyroid, where it emits beta particles (electrons) that damage tissue. A plague of damaged thyroids has already been reported among as many as 40 percent of the children in the Fukushima area. That percentage can only go higher. In developing youngsters, it can stunt both physical and mental growth. Among adults it causes a very wide range of ancillary ailments, including cancer.
Cesium-137 from Fukushima has been found in fish caught as far away as California. It spreads throughout the body, but tends to accumulate in the muscles.
Strontium-90’s half-life is around 29 years. It mimics calcium and goes to our bones.

25. According to a recent Planet Infowars report, the California coastline is being transformed into “a dead zone”…

The California coastline is becoming like a dead zone.
If you haven’t been to a California beach lately, you probably don’t know that the rocks are unnaturally CLEAN – there’s hardly any kelp, barnacles, sea urchins, etc. anymore and the tide pools are similarly eerily devoid of crabs, snails and other scurrying signs of life… and especially as compared to 10 – 15 years ago when one was wise to wear tennis shoes on a trip to the beach in order to avoid cutting one’s feet on all the STUFF of life – broken shells, bones, glass, driftwood, etc.
There are also days when I am hard-pressed to find even a half dozen seagulls and/or terns on the county beach.
You can still find a few gulls trolling the picnic areas and some of the restaurants (with outdoor seating areas) for food, of course, but, when I think back to 10 – 15 years ago, the skies and ALL the beaches were literally filled with seagulls and the haunting sound of their cries both day and night…
NOW it’s unnaturally quiet.

26. A study conducted last year came to the conclusion that radiation from the Fukushima nuclear disaster could negatively affect human life along the west coast of North America from Mexico to Alaska “for decades”.
27. According to the Wall Street Journal, it is being projected that the cleanup of Fukushima could take up to 40 years to complete.
28. Yale Professor Charles Perrow is warning that if the cleanup of Fukushima is not handled with 100% precision that humanity could be threatened “for thousands of years“…

“Conditions in the unit 4 pool, 100 feet from the ground, are perilous, and if any two of the rods touch it could cause a nuclear reaction that would be uncontrollable. The radiation emitted from all these rods, if they are not continually cool and kept separate, would require the evacuation of surrounding areas including Tokyo. Because of the radiation at the site the 6,375 rods in the common storage pool could not be continuously cooled; they would fission and all of humanity will be threatened, for thousands of years.”

Are you starting to understand why so many people are so deeply concerned about what is going on at Fukushima?

THE WIGHTITES - EARLY RANDOM CHURCH HSITORY

In EQ on Sunday, I ran into a descendant of Lyman Wight.  I remember him being involved in Zion's Army, but I was pretty sure he was not in the Brigham era.  I asked his descendant what happened to him and he said he ended up in Texas - which was true.  Here is the rest of the story - and an interesting one indeed:

Lyman Wight (May 9, 1796 – March 31, 1858) was an early leader in the Latter Day Saint movement. He was the leader of the Latter Day Saints in Daviess County, Missouri in 1838. In 1841, he was ordained a member of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles. After the death of Joseph Smith, Jr. resulted in a succession crisis, Wight led his own group of Latter Day Saints to Texas, where they created a settlement. While in Texas, Wight broke with other factions of Latter Day Saints, including the group led by Brigham Young. Wight was ordained president of his own church, but he later sided with the claims of William Smith and eventually of Joseph Smith III. After his death, most of the "Wightites" (as members of this church were called) joined with the Reorganized Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints.

Early life

Lyman Wight was born to Levi Wight Jr. and Sarah Corbin in Fairfield, New York. He fought in the War of 1812. on January 5, 1823, he married Harriet Benton in Henrietta, New York. Sometime around 1826 he moved to Warrensville, Ohio, and was baptized into the Reformed Baptist (later Disciples of Christ or Campbellite) faith by Sidney Rigdon in May 1829. In February 1840 he united with Isaac Morley and others in forming a common stock utopian society in Kirtland, Ohio.

Service in the church

He was baptized by Oliver Cowdery in 1830. He was ordained a high priest in June 1831. He claimed to have seen Jesus Christ. Shortly afterwards, he went to Missouri, and later Cincinnati, Ohio to preach. There he baptized over 100 people.

Jackson County conflict and Zion's Camp

With many of his converted people, he went to settle in Independence, Missouri, to build the "City of Zion". The Mormons in Jackson County were at odds with their non-Mormon neighbors, who resorted to vigilantism to drive the church from the county. In one scuffle with a vigilante group, Wight outran them on bare horseback by jumping over a ditch that they could not jump.
On July 23, 1833, Wight signed an agreement with the vigilantes which specified that the Latter Day Saints would leave Jackson County by 1834. The saints were driven out anyway into neighboring Clay County. The church membership called on several elders to go up to Kirtland to tell Joseph Smith about the events. When the elders refused, Lyman stepped forward to make the journey, despite his wife being ill with a three-day old child and only three days of food. Parley P. Pratt also volunteered to go with Wight.
He arrived in Kirtland, Ohio on February 22, 1834. Two days later he and Pratt testified about the conflict in Missouri to the newly formed high council. This led to the organization of Zion's Camp. Joseph sent out men, two by two, to recruit volunteers. Lyman left on April 21 with Hyrum Smith to recruit from the northwest. Recruitment was difficult, as many people did not want to leave their homes to defend someone else's. Hyrum and Lyman recruited about twenty individuals, including Hosea Stout, who was not a Church member but was impressed with their preaching. They met with the main company on June 8 at the Salt River in Missouri, bringing the total to 207 men, 11 women, 11 children, and 25 wagons.
Lyman tolerated the conditions of the rest of the company including the eating of moldy and rancid food, under the promises from Joseph Smith that they would not be afflicted by it. After a 900-mile march, the members of the camp reached Missouri where they were smitten with cholera. They were then discharged without having accomplished their goal of returning the Latter Day Saints to Jackson County. At the end of Zion's Camp, Lyman Wight wrote up the discharge orders, and remained in Missouri according to Joseph's command.

Itinerant preaching

For the remainder of 1834, he worked making bricks in Missouri, and built a large brick house for Colonel Arthur of Clay County, employing several others, including Wilford Woodruff.
In 1835, he was encouraged to travel to the temple at Kirtland. While on the journey, he preached. He stopped by Richmond, Indiana. He knew that people in the area were antagonistic towards the church, yet he made an appointment to preach at the courthouse. At the appointed time, he went to the courthouse. People with tar and feathers filled the room, ready to lynch him. The event is described thus:

He preached about two hours, reproving them most severely for their meanness, wickedness and mobocratic spirit. At the close of the meeting he said, "If there is a gentleman in this congregation, I wish he would invite me to stay with him overnight." Whereupon, a gentleman stepped forward and tendered him an invitation, which he willingly accepted. His host said, "Mr Wight, it is astonishing how you have become so well acquainted with the people here, for you have described them very correctly." He was kindly entertained and furnished with money in the morning to aid him on his journey.

Mormon leader in Daviess County

Residence of Lyman Wight at Adam-ondi-Ahman in 1838 (lean-to on the end of building is not part of the original residence)

Staying the winter in Kirtland, Lyman set out to return to Missouri in 1836. In 1837, David W. Patten accused him of teaching false doctrine, for which he was tried before the high council in Far West. Being found guilty, he made the necessary acknowledgments.
Settling near the Grand River in Daviess County, Missouri on about February 1, 1838, Lyman Wight built a house and later a ferry which became known as "Wight's Ferry". On May 19, 1838, Joseph Smith, Jr. paid a visit to Lyman's home and ferry, and used his home as the headquarters during his visit. It was from his house that Smith received revelation about Adam-ondi-Ahman and foretold the future gathering there.
On June 28, 1838, at a conference of local church members, Joseph Smith organized a stake at Adam-ondi-Ahman with Joseph's uncle John Smith as president, and Reynolds Calhoon and Lyman Wight as counselors. With the organization, members began settling in the area, including new members and refugees from Kirtland, Ohio.
Wight had also become a Colonel in the 50th regiment of the Missouri Regiment, in the state militia, under the command of General H. G. Parks. By end of June, he was also head of the Danite organization in Daviess County. Between his several roles, Wight became the preeminent leader of the Latter Day Saints in Daviess.

The Mormon War

In the summer of 1838, the troubles of the Mormon War began with events on the Gallatin Election Day Battle. In response, Wight armed over 150 men at this time to defend the Latter Day Saints in Daviess. Lyman Wight was accused, along with Joseph Smith, of organizing an army and threatening and harassing various old settlers of Daviess County. Joseph and Lyman agreed to hold trial to ease the tensions in the area. On September 7, 1838, they were tried before Judge Austin A. King. The judge ordered them to stand trial before the circuit court on bail of $500.
After the trial, emotions did not abate on either side. The Mormons and non-Mormons in Daviess engaged in non-fatal conflicts. Non-Mormon vigilantes from other counties came to Daviess and began to harass the Latter Day Saints in outlying areas, burning their homes and looting their property. Refugees began pouring into Adam-ondi-Ahman, seeking protection. The Mormon response was to call up armed volunteers from Caldwell County. Combining with the Daviess men, the Mormons split into three groups and raided the chief non-Mormon settlements. Wight led the raid on Millport. The old settlers and their families fled and Wight and his men looted their property and burned their homes to the ground (Baugh, pp. 86–87).
Following these actions, the Battle of Crooked River took place. Joseph Smith advised every church member to go to Adam-ondi-Ahman or Far West for protection and strength. When Far West fell under siege after the Missouri Executive Order 44, Lyman Wight organized members in Adam-ondi-Ahman to assist them. No battle took place, however, as Wight and the other Mormon leaders were arrested by the state militia and the Mormon militia subsequently surrendered.
While in custody of the state troops, Lyman endured the mockery and vulgarity of the troops, lying in the ground in the rain. A court martial which might have led to Wight's execution was averted by General Alexander William Doniphan of Clay County who challenged the legality of any such court. Instead, Wight and the other leaders were tried in the civil courts. Wight and other leaders were allowed to escape from jail during their transfer to Boone County on April 16, 1839.

Nauvoo era

Lyman Wight was ordained an apostle on April 8, 1841 by Joseph Smith to replace David W. Patten, who died in the Battle of Crooked River in 1838. Wight and George Miller became co-responsible for a common-stock, religious cooperative company/church mill and logging town in the wilds of Wisconsin. Much lumber for the Nauvoo Temple and the Nauvoo House were floated down the Mississippi River from the several Mormon mills in the area.

Succession crisis and Wightite colonization in Texas

During the succession crisis after the death of Joseph Smith, Wight felt compelled to follow the orders Joseph Smith had given him to found a safe haven for the Latter-day Saints in the Republic of Texas. Wight moved a group of Latter Day Saints there and eventually founded several communities on the central Texas frontier. The first Mormon temple west of the Mississippi was built at Zodiac, Texas, about three miles from Fredericksburg. Sealings, ordinations, washing and anointings, and adoptions were performed in this temple by the Wightites.
Brigham Young tried to get Wight to join the main body of Mormonism (The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in the Utah Territory) several times, but Wight refused each time. Wight was eventually excommunicated in December 1848; his most prominent follower, Bishop George Miller, was also disfellowshipped. Most of the anger between Wight and Young seemed to weigh heavily on Wight.^{[citation needed]}
Wight later recognized William Smith as the President of the Church (Reorganized Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints) for a short time and served as a counselor in William's short-lived First Presidency. After 1849, Wight wrote and stated that he believed the prophetic mantle of church leadership should fall on the shoulders of Joseph Smith's sons. By then he had no use for Brigham Young, William Smith, and James Strang as pretenders, in his mind, as successors to Joseph Smith. In 1851, after the Pedernales River overflowed its banks and destroyed Zodiac, the colonists moved to Burnet County, establishing Mormon Mill.
Wight died on March 31, 1858 with a small remnant of his colony in a few miles from San Antonio. Wight's group had been trekking for Jackson County, Missouri, where he wished to rejoin the remainder of the Mid-Western Saints. He was buried in his temple robes at the Mormon cemetery at Zodiac, which no longer exists. The only remaining material infrastructure of the colony is the Morman Mill cemetery near Hamilton Creek, about fifty miles east by north of Fredericksburg.
