    <content type="html"><![CDATA[<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 11pt;">A lot of things are happening
in the world these days &#150; economy, environmental, political, and religious
events fill our newsletter as well as the news stations and papers all around
the world.<span style="">&nbsp; </span>Many say it&#146;s not what it really
is (tribulation) and they keep the blinders on.<span style="">&nbsp;
</span>However, we <i style="">are</i> in the midst
of the tribulation and even though some don&#146;t want to believe it, we were given
the warning long ago in the Word.<span style="">&nbsp; </span>This
warning is to tell us that the time is near and to repair and guard our hearts
in preparation for eternal life.<span style="">&nbsp; </span>This is
a warning from the love that Father has for Her children.<span style="">&nbsp; </span>Father wants for us to follow the path set
before us by Christ and doesn&#146;t want to lose us to eternal death.<span style="">&nbsp; </span>Father loves Her children deeply and doesn&#146;t
relish in their demise. <o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 11pt;"><o:p>&nbsp;</o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><i style=""><span style="font-size: 11pt;">Jeremiah 9:1 &#126; &nbsp;If my head were water, my eyes a
fountain of tears, I would weep day and <span style="">&nbsp;</span>night over the slain of my dear people.<span style="">&nbsp; </span><o:p></o:p></span></i></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 11pt;"><o:p>&nbsp;</o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 11pt;">Humanity in general has
spiraled downward and many have lost sight of our Heavenly Father.<span class="sup"><o:p></o:p></span></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span class="sup"><span style="font-size: 11pt;"><o:p>&nbsp;</o:p></span></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span class="sup"><i style=""><span style="font-size: 11pt;">Jeremiah 9:3 &#126; </span></i></span><i style=""><span style="font-size: 11pt;">They bent their tongues [like] their
bows; lies and not faithfulness prevail in the land, for they proceed from one
evil to another, and they do not take Me into account.<span style="">&nbsp; </span>[This is] the L<span style="font-variant: small-caps;">ORD</span>'s declaration.<o:p></o:p></span></i></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 11pt;"><o:p>&nbsp;</o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 11pt;">Father loves us so much that
She sent Her only son Christ Jesus who sacrificed himself to bear the brunt of
all our sins.<span style="">&nbsp; </span>In that way, we would be
set free.<span style="">&nbsp; </span>We were given the example of
his life and his teachings from Father Herself.<span style="">&nbsp;
</span>It was the gift of a fresh start.<span style="">&nbsp;
</span>This is why we can diligently try to live righteously as Father has
asked us, and gain eternal life in the </span><st1:place><st1:placetype><span style="font-size: 11pt;">Kingdom</span></st1:placetype><span style="font-size: 11pt;"> of </span><st1:placename><span style="font-size: 11pt;">Heaven</span></st1:placename></st1:place><span style="font-size: 11pt;">.<span style="">&nbsp; </span>We all need to get rid of the negativity and
allow our hearts and minds to be filled with all that is good &#150; only that which
comes from our loving Father.<span style="">&nbsp; </span>This world
has the mentality of individual success and every man for himself.<span style="">&nbsp; </span>Even new religions are based on control
belonging to the people and doesn&#146;t realize the power and necessity of Father
in their lives.<span style="">&nbsp; </span>It&#146;s true that there is
always something positive to see from the way Father works in our lives and the
lives of others.<span style="">&nbsp; </span>Guard your hearts
though, because many find it easier to do as they please no matter what it
means to others.<span style="">&nbsp; </span>The only one we can
truly lean on is Father and Her consistent love and guidance for each one of
us.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 11pt;">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><i style=""><span style="font-size: 11pt;">Jeremiah 9:4-6 &#126; Imminent Ruin and Exile. Everyone has
to be on guard against his friend. Don't trust any brother, for every brother
will certainly deceive, and every friend spread slander.<span style="">&nbsp; </span>Each one betrays his friend; no one tells the
truth.<span style="">&nbsp; </span>They have taught their tongues to
speak lies; they wear themselves out doing wrong.<span style="">&nbsp; </span>You live in [a world] of deception.<span style="">&nbsp; </span>In [their] deception they refuse to know
Me.<span style="">&nbsp; </span>[This is] the L<span style="font-variant: small-caps;">ORD</span>'s declaration.<o:p></o:p></span></i></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 11pt;"><o:p>&nbsp;</o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 11pt;">When we are open to the works
of Father, we can change (refined) from bad ways and take on the righteousness
of the &#145;new man&#146; that follows Christ&#146;s example.<span style="">&nbsp;
</span>We can grow in faith and love.<span style="">&nbsp; </span>We
can have the closer union with Her as we lean on and trust in Her daily.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 11pt;"><o:p>&nbsp;</o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 11pt;">Refine is defined as &#147;</span>to
bring to a fine or a pure state; free from impurities&#148; and a test is &#147;a set of
questions, problems, or the like, used as a means of evaluating the abilities,
aptitudes, skills, or performance of an individual or group; examination.&#148;</p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p>&nbsp;</o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">Notice that in the following verse &#145;refine&#146; is mentioned
before &#145;test&#146;.<span style="">&nbsp; </span>Father works on us when
we open ourselves up to Her.<span style="">&nbsp; </span>At that
time we are being refined.<span style="">&nbsp; </span>The test,
mentioned next, can be thought of as a good thing.<span style="">&nbsp; </span>It isn&#146;t always fun to be tested, however, it
is through testing that we are assessed and can learn how to <i style="">grow</i> forward and in closer union with
Father.<span style="font-size: 11pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 11pt;"><o:p>&nbsp;</o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><i style=""><span style="font-size: 11pt;">Jeremiah 9:<span class="sup">7 </span><span style="">&nbsp;</span>Therefore, this is what the L<span style="font-variant: small-caps;">ORD</span> of Hosts says: I am about to refine
them and test them, for what else can I do because of My dear people? <o:p></o:p></span></i></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 11pt;"><o:p>&nbsp;</o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 11pt;">For those who do not follow
the example of Christ and the guidance of Father, they are a corruption to what
Father intended for mankind.<span style="">&nbsp; </span>They will
be judged according to their heart condition and actions.<span style="">&nbsp; </span>This wrath is evident in current events
taking place now.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 11pt;"><o:p>&nbsp;</o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span class="sup"><i style=""><span style="font-size: 11pt;">Jeremiah 9:8-16<span style="">&nbsp;&nbsp;
</span></span></i></span><i style=""><span style="font-size: 11pt;"><span style="">&nbsp;</span>Their tongues
are deadly arrows&#151; they speak deception.<span style="">&nbsp;
</span>With his mouth a man speaks peaceably with his friend, but inwardly he
sets up an ambush.<span style="">&nbsp; </span>Should I not punish
them for these things?<span style="">&nbsp; </span>[This is] the L<span style="font-variant: small-caps;">ORD</span>'s declaration.<span style="">&nbsp; </span>Should I not take My revenge against a nation
such as this?<span style="">&nbsp; </span>I will raise weeping and a
lament over the mountains, a dirge over the wilderness grazing land, for they
have been so scorched that no one passes through.<span style="">&nbsp; </span>The sound of cattle is no longer heard.<span style="">&nbsp; </span>From the birds of the sky to the animals, [everything]
has fled&#151;they have gone away.<span style="">&nbsp; </span>I will make
</span></i><st1:city><st1:place><i style=""><span style="font-size: 11pt;">Jerusalem</span></i></st1:place></st1:city><i style=""><span style="font-size: 11pt;"> a heap of
rubble, a jackals' den.<span style="">&nbsp; </span>I will make the
cities of </span></i><st1:country-region><st1:place><i style=""><span style="font-size: 11pt;">Judah</span></i></st1:place></st1:country-region><i style=""><span style="font-size: 11pt;"> a
desolation, an uninhabited place.<span style="">&nbsp; </span>Who is
the man wise enough to understand this?<span style="">&nbsp;
</span>Who has the L<span style="font-variant: small-caps;">ORD</span> spoken to,
that he may explain it? Why is the land destroyed and scorched like a
wilderness, so no one can pass through?<span style="">&nbsp; </span>The
L<span style="font-variant: small-caps;">ORD</span> said, "It is because
they abandoned My law I set in front of them and did not obey My voice or walk
according to it.<span style="">&nbsp; </span>Instead, they followed
the stubbornness of their hearts and the Baals, as their fathers taught
them."<span style="">&nbsp; </span>Therefore, this is what the
L<span style="font-variant: small-caps;">ORD</span> of Hosts, the God of </span></i><st1:country-region><st1:place><i style=""><span style="font-size: 11pt;">Israel</span></i></st1:place></st1:country-region><i style=""><span style="font-size: 11pt;">, says:
"I am about to feed this people wormwood and give them poisonous waters to
drink.<span style="">&nbsp; </span>I will scatter them among nations
that they and their fathers have not known. I will send a sword after them
until I have finished them off."<o:p></o:p></span></i></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 11pt;"><o:p>&nbsp;</o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 11pt;">It&#146;s awe inspiring when we&#146;ve
realized something has occurred in our lives by Father&#146;s doing.<span style="">&nbsp; </span>It is important to be open to and aware of
Father&#146;s incredible glory because we are nothing without Her.<span style="">&nbsp; </span>Her glory is one way that Father carries us
through this world &#150; a blessing that comes from Her deep love and mercy.<span style="">&nbsp; </span>Lean on and trust completely in Father if you
want eternal life.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 11pt;"><o:p>&nbsp;</o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><i style=""><span style="font-size: 11pt;">Jeremiah 9:23-24 &#126; Boast in the L<span style="font-variant: small-caps;">ORD.<span style="">&nbsp; </span></span>This
is what the L<span style="font-variant: small-caps;">ORD</span> says: The wise
must not boast in his wisdom; the mighty must not boast in his might; the rich
must not boast in his riches.<span style="">&nbsp; </span>But the
one who boasts should boast in this, that he understands and knows Me &#151; that I
am the L<span style="font-variant: small-caps;">ORD</span>, showing faithful
love, justice, and righteousness on the earth, for I delight in these things. [This
is] the L<span style="font-variant: small-caps;">ORD</span>'s declaration.<o:p></o:p></span></i></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 11pt;"><o:p>&nbsp;</o:p></span></p>

<span style="font-size: 11pt;">I urge you to not be frightened
into denial.<span style="">&nbsp; </span>To be warned is &#147;</span>To
make aware in advance of actual or potential harm, danger, or evil.&#148;<span style="">&nbsp; </span>That is why I say this warning from the Word
is purely from love.<span style="">&nbsp; </span>This is so that,
before it&#146;s too late, we can be refined and <span style="font-size: 11pt;">follow
Christ to the Father in the righteous life with concerted and diligent effort.<span style="">&nbsp; </span>In doing this you are reaching out toward our
loving, merciful, and forgiving God who would love to hold you close to Her for
eternity.</span>]]></content>

Cherubs have been diligently working at melting the ice caps at the
North Pole. This year the evidence of the melt down will be complete
and forthcoming. There's absolutely no way for mankind or Dawn
Lucifer's spiritual forces to halt the melting caps. In addition,
Father has made use of the animal kingdom, the beaver especially in
breaking levies in the flooded state of <st1:state><st1:place>Missouri</st1:place></st1:state> and <st1:state><st1:place>Iowa</st1:place></st1:state>.
The Cherubs have used the fierce weather patterns they've created to
devastate and cause crop failures that will cause widespread disease
from the polluted waters and will not only bring higher prices for corn
and other drowned crops, but soon it will be impossible to even buy
what is in short supply. In <st1:state><st1:place>Iowa</st1:place></st1:state> and <st1:state><st1:place>Missouri</st1:place></st1:state>
the underground water aquifers are polluted with oil bi-products as
well as fertilizers and human waste. Soon, it will reach an epidemic
state as the Cherubs bring even more disaster to the grain producing
and fruit producing states in the <st1:country-region><st1:place>USA</st1:place></st1:country-region> as they are hit with ever increasing severe catastrophes. </font><w:worddocument><w:compatibility><w:breakwrappedtables><w:snaptogridincell><w:applybreakingrules>  <br><br><font size="2"><span style="font-size: 10pt;" times="" new="" roman="" ;="">What the </span><st1:country-region><st1:place><span style="font-size: 10pt;" times="" new="" roman="" ;="">U.S.</span></st1:place></st1:country-region><span style="font-size: 10pt;" times="" new="" roman="" ;="">
government is not telling people, is that the animals who've survived
the flood conditions are at risk from the tainted water supply every
bit as much as the human populous.<br> <br> In other parts of the </span><st1:country-region><st1:place><span style="font-size: 10pt;" times="" new="" roman="" ;="">USA</span></st1:place></st1:country-region><span style="font-size: 10pt;" times="" new="" roman="" ;="">,
Father has started numerous fires with Her lightning bolts and
devastation is ever increasing in the tinderbox areas that have
suffered from lack of rain. It is indeed becoming hell on earth, but is
only a taste of what is to come. Soon, the false religious empire will
come under fire as people curse Father as a vindictive or nonexistent
God. <br></span></font></w:applybreakingrules></w:snaptogridincell></w:breakwrappedtables></w:compatibility></w:worddocument></p><p class="MsoNormal"><font size="2">There
will never be a day on the international news cast that speaks of
anything good happening on this planet to do with weather or other
natural phenomena such as earthquakes and volcanic activity. Soon, they
will question what is causing so much revolt in nature, but some of
Dawn Lucifer's human agents will try to sooth the public awareness by
saying it is the earth going through a recycling stage that will
eventually even itself out. For many, they will take no notice of the
truth of what is about to befall them any more than they did in Noah's
pre-flood era, but all will be infuriated as the world they once knew
is no longer hospitable.</font></p>    <p class="MsoNormal"><font size="2"><span style="font-weight: bold;">Psalm 147:17 <span style="font-style: italic;">"He throws His hailstones like crumbs. Who can withstand His cold?" </span></span><br></font></p><p class="MsoNormal"><font size="2">Who can withstand anything Father decides to throw evil mankind's way? No one.<br><br style="font-weight: bold;"><span style="font-weight: bold;"> Romans 8:7 <span style="font-style: italic;">"For the mind-set of the flesh is hostile to God because it does not submit itself to God's law, for it is unable to do so." </span></span><br></font> </p><p class="MsoNormal"><font size="2">The
"mind-set of the flesh" but not that of a true spiritual believer who
bridles his or her body and does not permit it to rule over their
spiritual mind-set. But since the flesh currently tainted by
imperfection cannot inherit the <st1:place><st1:placetype>Kingdom</st1:placetype>  of <st1:placename>Christ Jesus</st1:placename></st1:place>,
it is left behind at the rapture, because as Father says, She is making
all things new. The flesh as a whole in mankind is evil not because of
the flesh itself, but because of the actions carried out in the flesh
that are contrary to what Father expects from Her family of mankind.
But those who are no longer alienated from Father have put - not on new
flesh, but a new personality instead. The new flesh will come just as
it did for Christ Jesus when he manifested in flesh and blood for his
disciples to see him once again in human form. Yet, he had not yet
ascended to Father to present himself in person as the atonement for
mankind, and is why he did not want anyone to cling to him at that
time. They had to give up that he would be with them like he had
previously been, and recognize that his mission now carried through to
his being installed once again next to Father's throne. <br><br><span style="font-weight: bold;">John 20:16-18 <span style="font-style: italic;">"Jesus
said, "Mary." Turning around, she said to Him in Hebrew, "Rabbouni!"
&#151;which means "Teacher." "Don't cling to Me," Jesus told her, "for I
have not yet ascended to the Father. But go to My brothers and tell
them that I am ascending to My Father and your Father&#151;to My God and
your God." Mary Magdalene went and announced to the disciples, "I have
seen the Lord!" And she told them what He had said to her."</span></span><br><br>
But before Christ Jesus ascended to Father, he went back into the
spirit realm to announce the success of his mission to Dawn Lucifer and
the fallen angels that they would now be served the platter of eternal
death in their assigned time. After that, he went his way to be with
Father at <st1:place><st1:placetype>Mount</st1:placetype>  <st1:placename>Zion</st1:placename></st1:place>. <br><br><span style="font-weight: bold;">Colossians </span><st1:time style="font-weight: bold;" hour="13" minute="21">1:21</st1:time><span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;"> "And you were once alienated and hostile in mind because of your evil actions." </span><br></font>     </p><p class="MsoNormal"><font size="2">Those
that serve with Dawn Lucifer as his confederates continue to be
alienated from Father, either by choice or indifference to the truth.<br><br><span style="font-weight: bold;">1 Thessalonians 2:14-16 <span style="font-style: italic;">"For
you, brothers, became imitators of God's churches in Christ Jesus that
are in Judea, since you have also suffered the same things from people
of your own country, just as they did from the Jews. They killed both
the Lord Jesus and the prophets, and persecuted us; they displease God,
and are hostile to everyone, hindering us from speaking to the Gentiles
so that they may be saved. As a result, they are always adding to the
number of their sins, and wrath has overtaken them completely." </span></span><br></font>  </p><p class="MsoNormal"><font size="2">Father
keeps count of sins of those that do not come under the Ransom
Sacrifice. Those that interfere with the spreading of the gospel are
being overtaken by Father's bowls of wrath, which in truth is an action
to try and open their hearts to the truth, but will spell the cup of
wrath if they continue warfare in the flesh against those that serve
Father by hindering Her faithful stewards.</font></p><p class="MsoNormal"><font size="2">The <st1:country-region><st1:place>USA</st1:place></st1:country-region>
is an important pawn in Dawn Lucifer's hand, and when it falls, it will
affect every nation on this planet by its abrupt demise. The EU will
grow strong in support, and it will try to resurrect the <st1:country-region><st1:place>USA</st1:place></st1:country-region>
as one of its union members. In this shift of world power the EU will
become the superpower it has longed to attain, but it will only be a
mere image of what was the beast. Dawn Lucifer will then be forced to
shift his mind and energy to making that image of the beast his central
pawn against Father's side on the war chess board. But first, the <st1:country-region><st1:place>USA</st1:place></st1:country-region>
must suffer Father's bowls of wrath to bring it to its knees. However,
this does not rule out the Cherubic Order's work elsewhere that's been
going on during this tribulation, but the USA will suffer far more than
any other country as it is swiftly brought down from on high by Father.</font></p>    <font size="2"><span style="font-size: 10pt;" times="" new="" roman="" ;=""> </span><span style="font-size: 10pt;" times="" new="" roman="" ;="">The
Spiritual War is fought on two fronts. 1. It is a spiritual battle that
involves weather and other related phenomena to cause destruction and
widespread desolation. 2. It is fought by using mankind as its own
worst enemy. Mankind has helped to bring much of the disasters now
happening. Father is simply helping things progress much more quickly.<br style=""> <br style=""> </span>Father
is Wisdom. At the crossroads of good verses evil Father took Her stand.
Her path had been junction by a road that crossed Hers. There, She took
Her stand in defense of Her Sovereignty, the right to rule Her creation
exclusively by Her standards. Father's voice is one of understanding.
She is at an unreachable height overlooking the path She wants Her
loyal and faithful servants to travel. The crossing is a path that
leads to destruction, but Father stands guard to keep Her servants on
the straight and narrow path to eternal life. Beside the gates of Mount
Zion Father's voice can be heard by those that have insight and can
hear the cry of salvation Father is offering to mankind. You must be
shrewd (i.e., having or showing sharp powers of judgment. To be astute
to what is going on.)<br><br> Michael spoke this and it was borne out
in the writings of the Word long ago. Meditate on each verse. From it
he imparts wisdom from the Source of all that was taught to him,
Yahweh, the Almighty God of all that's in existence. <br><br><b>Proverbs 8</b><br><span style="font-weight: bold;">Wisdom's Appeal</span><br><span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;">1 Doesn't Wisdom call out?</span><br style="font-weight: bold;

font-style: italic;"> 2 At the heights overlooking the road,</span><br style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;"><span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;"> at the crossroads, she takes her stand.</span><br style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;"><br style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;"><span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;"> 3 Beside the gates at the entry to the city,</span><br style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;"><span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;"> at the main entrance, she cries out:</span><br style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;"><br style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;"><span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;"> 4 "People, I call out to you;</span><br style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;"><span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;"> my cry is to mankind.</span><br style="font-weight: bold;

font-style: italic;"><br style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;"><span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;"> 13 To fear the LORD is to hate evil. </span><br style="font-weight: bold;

    <link href="http://pathtoyahweh.webs.com/articlesforthought.htm?blogentryid=3564951"/>
    <content type="html"><![CDATA[<p class="MsoNormal">Father is always with us, She never stops reaching out to
us, loving us, guiding us.<span style="">&nbsp; </span>The reason we
feel distant from Her is because of <span style="">&nbsp;</span>&#133; US.<span style="">&nbsp; </span>We are our own worst enemy.</p>



<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p></o:p></p>


<p class="MsoNormal"><i style="">&#147;Be satisfied with
what you have, for He Himself has said, I will never leave you or forsake
you.<span style="">&nbsp; </span>Therefore, we may boldly say: The
Lord is my helper;<span style="">&nbsp; </span>I will not be afraid.
What can man do to me?&#148; Hebrews 13:5-6&nbsp;</i></p>



<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p></o:p></p>


<p class="MsoNormal">We all know right from wrong whether we were taught the
difference or know it intuitively.<span style="">&nbsp; </span>Those
who strive to do the right thing can really beat themselves and remain in the
pain and shame of having done something wrong.<span style="">&nbsp;
</span>If we can&#146;t forgive ourselves we&#146;ll never be able to get up and keep
walking toward Father&#146;s outstretched arms.<span style="">&nbsp;
</span>If we asked and received Father&#146;s forgiveness than why do we still not
forgive ourselves?</p>





<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p></o:p>Not a single life here on Earth goes without some kind of
conflict or periods of time when we are overwhelmed or in a fog.<span style="">&nbsp; </span>During those times, some people think that
Father isn&#146;t there but that&#146;s very far from the truth.<span style="">&nbsp;</span></p>




<i style="">"Those who know Your
name trust in You because You have not abandoned those who seek You, LORD.&#148;
Psalm </i><st1:time hour="9" minute="10"><i style="">9:10</i></st1:time>



<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p></o:p></p>


<p class="MsoNormal">Since Father is there with us yet we aren&#146;t feeling Her love
or hearing Her guidance or feeling Her mercy, then it stands to reason that WE,
in fact, are the ones who are closing the door of our heart, and not seeing
clearly through the fog because OUR vision has changed.<span style="">&nbsp;&nbsp;</span></p>

<o:p></o:p><i style="">"Peace I leave
with you. My peace I give to you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Your
heart must not be troubled or fearful.&#148; John 14:27</i>

<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p></o:p>During times like this it is helpful to examine your
mind.<span style="">&nbsp; </span>If anything seems amiss, try
writing it down.<span style="">&nbsp; </span>If there is anything
you feel led to do to repair it, then do so and pray that Father take care of
the rest.<span style="">&nbsp; </span>If it is completely out of
your control, as most things are, then close your eyes and put the person or
things in your hand.<span style="">&nbsp; </span>Raise your hands up
until you meet the hands of Father and gently place them in Her care.<span style="">&nbsp; </span>Know that we lack the wisdom or omniscience
to do what&#146;s best in that situation.<span style="">&nbsp;
</span>Know that we are powerless and give all the glory and trust to Father to
work it out.<span style="">&nbsp; </span>Believe me, She wants to
help and be leaned on. <span style="">&nbsp;</span>Afterwards just
relax and know that it&#146;s being worked on by the best One for the job and if the
time comes that you need to do anything else, you will be led to do Father&#146;s
will.<span style="">&nbsp; </span>In the meantime, relax, bask in
the joy and love of Father and whatever you do - don&#146;t take it back.<span style="">&nbsp; </span>It&#146;s not for you to handle.<span style="">&nbsp; </span>Focus on all the positives around you
instead.<span style="">&nbsp; </span>Stand firm on your faith and
hear Father speak to you &#147;It&#146;s ok, I have it taken care of and I love you.<span style="">&nbsp; </span>Rest in me and enjoy.&#148;<span style="">&nbsp;</span></p>






<p class="MsoNormal"><i style="">&#147;Don't worry about
anything, but in everything, through prayer and petition with thanksgiving, let
your requests be made known to God.<span style="">&nbsp; </span>And
the peace of God, which surpasses every thought, will guard your hearts and
your minds in Christ Jesus.<span style="">&nbsp; </span>Finally
brothers, whatever is true, whatever is honorable, whatever is just, whatever
is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is commendable&#151;if there is any moral excellence
and if there is any praise&#151;dwell on these things.<span style="">&nbsp; </span>Do what you have learned and received and
heard and seen in me, and the God of peace will be with you.<span style="">&nbsp;&nbsp; </span>I rejoiced in the Lord greatly that now at
last you have renewed your care for me.<span style="">&nbsp; </span>You
were, in fact, concerned about me, but lacked the opportunity [to show
it].<span style="">&nbsp; </span>I don't say this out of need, for I
have learned to be content in whatever circumstances I am.<span style="">&nbsp; </span>I know both how to have a little, and I know
how to have a lot. In any and all circumstances I have learned the secret [of
being content]&#151;whether well-fed or hungry, whether in abundance or in need. I
am able to do all things through Him who strengthens me.&#148;<span style="">&nbsp; </span>Philippians 4:4-13</i></p>



<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p></o:p></p>


<p class="MsoNormal"><i style="">&#147;A thief comes only to
steal and to kill and to destroy.<span style="">&nbsp; </span>I have
come that they may have life and have it in abundance.&#148;<span style="">&nbsp; </span>John 10:10</i></p>



<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color: red;"><o:p></o:p></span></p>


<p class="MsoNormal"><i style="">&#147;For by grace you are
saved through faith, and this is not from yourselves; it is God's gift&#148; Ephesians
2:8</i></p>




<p class="MsoNormal">I envision someone fallen on a path where all they can see
is a dark fog ahead of them.<span style="">&nbsp; </span>What they
can&#146;t see is the ray of light on the other side.<span style="">&nbsp; </span>They are heartbroken and can&#146;t seem to pick
themselves up out of their negative emotions.<span style="">&nbsp;
</span>What if they continued to pray and have faith?<span style="">&nbsp; </span>When we don&#146;t know what lies ahead or how
something could possibly work out and get better, Father always knows exactly
what to do about it.<span style="">&nbsp; </span>Father is waiting
for that person to lay it all in Her hands and blindly follow in unwavering
faith.<span style="">&nbsp; </span>I envision that person getting to
their feet using the strength from Father and walking straight ahead - even
though they can&#146;t see.<span style="">&nbsp; </span>I see them praying
fervently for guidance to continue and being open and perceptive about the
instructions and love that Father has for them.<span style="">&nbsp;
</span>As they walk, their heart tells them they are still on the path and it&#146;s
going to be ok.<span style="">&nbsp; </span>Every step closer to
Father is an affirmation that they are loved, that they are protected, that
they are guided.<span style="">&nbsp; </span>Each step closer to
reaching for Father brings a deeper loving relationship than the previous
step.<span style="">&nbsp; </span>More and more strength is felt and
their heart opens up completely to be blessed as Father pours the fruits of the
spirit into their heart so much that it begins to be overflowing.<span style="">&nbsp; </span>Before they know it they are standing in the
sunlight and have left the fog behind them.</p>



<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p></o:p></p>


<p class="MsoNormal"><i style="">&#147;But the fruit of the
Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faith, Or
faithfulness gentleness, self-control. Against such things there is no law.&#148; Galatians
5:22</i></p>



<p class="MsoNormal"><i style=""><span style="color: red;"><o:p></o:p></span></i></p>


<p class="MsoNormal"><i style="">&#147;Abundant peace
belongs to those who love Your instruction; nothing makes them stumble&#148; <span style="">Psalm 119:165</span></i></p>

<b><o:p></o:p></b>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="">For even more
comfort, let me close with some more of my favorite scriptures&#133;</span></p>
<p><i style="">&#147;The L<span style="font-variant: small-caps;">ORD</span> is my shepherd; there is nothing I
lack.<span style="">&nbsp; </span>He lets me lie down in green
pastures; He leads me beside quiet waters.<span style="">&nbsp;
</span>He renews my life; He leads me along the right paths for His name's
sake.<span style="">&nbsp; </span>Even when I go through the darkest
valley, I fear [no] danger, for You are with me; Your rod and Your staff &#151; they
comfort me.<span style="">&nbsp; </span>You prepare a table before me in the
presence of my enemies; You anoint my head with oil; my cup overflows.<span style="">&nbsp; </span>Only goodness and faithful love will pursue
me all the days of my life, and I will dwell in the house of the L<span style="font-variant: small-caps;">ORD </span>as long as I live.&#148;<span style="">&nbsp; </span>Psalm 23</i></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><i style="">&#147;The one who lives
under the protection of the Most High dwells in the shadow of the
almighty.<span style="">&nbsp;&nbsp; </span>I will say to the LORD,
"My refuge and my fortress, my God, in whom I trust."<span style="">&nbsp; </span>He Himself will deliver you from the hunter's
net, from the destructive plague.<span style="">&nbsp; </span>He
will cover you with His feathers; you will take refuge under His wings.<span style="">&nbsp; </span>His faithfulness will be a protective
shield.<span style="">&nbsp; </span>You will not fear the terror of
the night, the arrow that flies by day,<span style="">&nbsp;
</span>the plague that stalks in darkness, or the pestilence that ravages at </i><st1:time minute="0" hour="12"><i style="">noon</i></st1:time><i style="">.<span style="">&nbsp;&nbsp;
</span>Though a thousand fall at your side and ten thousand at your right hand,
the pestilence will not reach you.<span style="">&nbsp;&nbsp; </span>You
will only see it with your eyes and witness the punishment of the wicked.<span style="">&nbsp; </span>Because you have made the LORD&#151; my refuge,
the Most High&#151;your dwelling place, no harm will come to you; no plague will
come near your tent.<span style="">&nbsp; </span>For He will give
His angels orders concerning you, to protect you in all your ways.<span style="">&nbsp;&nbsp; </span>They will support you with their hands so
that you will not strike your foot against a stone.<span style="">&nbsp; </span>You will tread on the lion and the cobra; you
will trample the young lion and the serpent.<span style="">&nbsp;
</span>Because he is lovingly devoted to </i><st1:PersonName><i style="">Me</i></st1:PersonName><i style="">, I will deliver him; I will exalt him because he knows My name.<span style="">&nbsp; </span>When he calls out to </i><st1:PersonName><i style="">Me</i></st1:PersonName><i style="">, I will answer him; I will be with him in trouble.<span style="">&nbsp; </span>I will rescue him and give him honor.<span style="">&nbsp; </span>I will satisfy him with a long life and show
him My salvation.&#148;<span style="">&nbsp; </span>Psalms 91</i></p>
<i style="">"This is why I
tell you: Don't worry about your life, what you will eat or what you will
drink; or about your body, what you will wear.<span style="">&nbsp;&nbsp;
</span>Isn't life more than food and the body more than clothing?<span style="">&nbsp;&nbsp; </span>Look at the birds of the sky: they don't sow
or reap or gather into barns, yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Aren't you
worth more than they?<span style="">&nbsp;&nbsp; </span>Can any of you
add a single cubit to his height by worrying?<span style="">&nbsp;&nbsp;
</span>And why do you worry about clothes? Learn how the wildflowers of the
field grow:<span style="">&nbsp; </span>they don't labor or spin
thread.<span style="">&nbsp;&nbsp; </span>Yet I tell you that not even
Solomon in all his splendor was adorned like one of these!<span style="">&nbsp;&nbsp; </span>If that's how God clothes the grass of the
field, which is here today and thrown into the furnace tomorrow, won't He do
much more for you&#151;you of little faith?<span style="">&nbsp;&nbsp;
</span>So don't worry, saying, 'What will we eat?' or 'What will we drink?' or
'What will we wear?'<span style="">&nbsp;&nbsp; </span>For the idolaters
eagerly seek all these things, and your heavenly Father knows that you need
them.<span style="">&nbsp;&nbsp; </span>But seek first the </i><st1:place><st1:PlaceType><i style="">kingdom</i></st1:PlaceType><i style=""> of </i><st1:PlaceName><i style="">God</i></st1:PlaceName></st1:place><i style=""> and His righteousness, and all these things will be provided for
you.<span style="">&nbsp;&nbsp; </span>Therefore don't worry about
tomorrow, because tomorrow will worry about itself.<span style="">&nbsp;&nbsp; </span>Each day has enough trouble of its own.&#148;<span style="">&nbsp; </span>Matthew 6</i>]]></content>

    <title><![CDATA[All Roads Do Not Lead to God]]></title>
    <link href="http://pathtoyahweh.webs.com/articlesforthought.htm?blogentryid=3564757"/>
    <content type="html"><![CDATA[<p class="MsoNormal"><strong><span style="" lang="EN">2 Timothy
4:3</span></strong><span style="" lang="EN"> <em>&#147;For a time
will come when they will not tolerate sound doctrine, but according to their
own desires, will accumulate teachers for themselves because they have an itch
to hear something new.&#148;</em><o:p></o:p></span></p>




<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="" lang="EN">In today&#146;s
society, where political correctness has replaced truth, the myth of all
religions leading to God has become more and more acceptable. In fact, if you
suggest otherwise it actually makes people angry. As pointed out in the above
scripture, many people simply will not tolerate it. But the truth of the matter
is that this is a myth. If all religions led to God, it wouldn&#146;t have been
written at <strong>Matthew 7:14</strong>, <em><span style="color: red;">How
narrow is the gate and difficult the road that leads to life, and few find it.&#148;</span></em><br>
<br>
In the book of Exodus, Moses played an integral part in freeing the Jews from
slavery from the Egyptians, who worshiped other gods. So, logically speaking,
if every religion led to God, there would be no need of anyone to be freed or
saved.<o:p></o:p></span></p>




<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="" lang="EN">At <strong>John
8:31-32 </strong>it is written, <em>&#147;So Jesus said to the Jews who had believed
Him, <span style="color: red;">&#147;If you continue in My word,</span> <span style="color: red;">you really are My disciples. You will know the truth, and the
truth will set you free.&#148;</span></em><o:p></o:p></span></p>




<p class="MsoNormal">In today&#146;s day and age, like the Jews in the book of Exodus,
we again find ourselves<span style="" lang="EN"> surrounded
by people who worship other gods, or, if they worship Yahweh, the Almighty God
as Christians, they have been spoon fed falsehoods mixed with truth by the
Shepherds that lead them. Many are also under the impression that if they are
just a good person, they will go to heaven while others, like the Jehovah&#146;s
Witnesses, believe that only a mere 144,000 will make it to heaven.<o:p></o:p></span></p>




<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="" lang="EN">In a past blog, I
wrote about how things will soon change and why our message is so important. I
again find myself reiterating this because with each day that passes our
message becomes more and more urgent.<o:p></o:p></span></p>




<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="" lang="EN">Very soon, there
will come a time when things will get so bad here on earth as we continue through
the Tribulation, that religious communities will be turned on and houses of
worship will be under attack by those turning on them. It will be then, more
than ever, that the myth of all religions leading to God will rear its ugly
head.<o:p></o:p></span></p>




<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="" lang="EN">We have been given
examples of how to stand steadfast in our faith in the face of adversity and
those who wish to harm or kill our physical vessels (bodies). These examples
extend all throughout the scriptures and not only in the New Testament. Christ,
gave the more prominent example in how he suffered and died for our sins, but
his disciples also went on to give examples as they were faced with floggings,
jail, and eventually their own deaths for what they steadfastly believed.<o:p></o:p></span></p>




<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="" lang="EN">That&#146;s why it is
so important to know, understand and believe with every fiber of our being that
not all religions lead to God. And, when the time comes, we must stand with
Father and Christ in truth and voice Christ as King even if it means the death
of our physical vessels. If we do not stand firm in faith even in the threat of
death, we will lose out in the hope of eternal life.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

    <title><![CDATA[World Changing Events About to Take Place]]></title>
    <link href="http://pathtoyahweh.webs.com/articlesforthought.htm?blogentryid=3532436"/>
    <content type="html"><![CDATA[

<p>By <st1:City><st1:place>Regina</st1:place></st1:City></p>

<p>How powerful is the leader of this world&#146;s affairs? Christ Jesus noted that
Satan the Devil is the ruler of this world. He is the force whom people of
every nation are being misguided by his unseen presence, to obey his thought
injections to ignore what the Word warns concerning the Creator&#146;s Laws and the
offer of undeserved kindness to those seeking the truth, and to blindly
disregard the warning of impending cataclysmic destruction that the inhabitants
of this world will soon face. John <st1:time hour="14" minute="30">14:30</st1:time>
&#147;I will not talk with you much longer, because the ruler of the world is
coming. He has no power over Me.&#148; Ephesians 2:2 &#147;in which you previously walked
according to this worldly age, according to the ruler of the atmospheric
domain, the spirit now working in the disobedient.&#148;</p>

<p>Satan seeks to stay in power through his human confederates, but how much
power does he truly hold over his ruling nations of this planet? Not to the
degree he would like to have over them. Since he works through human minds by
thought injections, his over all theoretic plan to prove to the Creator that he
can successfully rule over and guide mankind is lacking in practice of doing
so. The hearts of human rulers conjure up thoughts contrary even to Satan&#146;s
prodding to do other things. This is because of Father Yahweh&#146;s divine
intervention. Is Father injecting things that bring them closer to the holy
side? Or, is Father doing as he did with Pharaoh during Moses service that was
to lead the enslaved Israelites out of bondage to <st1:country-region><st1:place>Egypt</st1:place></st1:country-region>
by hardening the hearts of world leaders? By Father&#146;s intervention, the world
rulers fail to heed some of Satan&#146;s inspired thoughts, by taking a course
contrary to what their tin god desired in action on their parts.</p>

<p>Behind the scenes during the time of the Exodus from <st1:country-region><st1:place>Egypt</st1:place></st1:country-region>,
Satan tried emphatically to inject the Pharaoh away from chasing after the
Israelites, but the Creator hardened Pharaoh&#146;s heart so that he would do as
Father Yahweh wanted. Against Satan&#146;s better judgment Pharaoh listened to what
he thought was his own reasoning: &#147;Exodus 14:8</p>

<p>The LORD hardened the heart of Pharaoh king of <st1:country-region><st1:place>Egypt</st1:place></st1:country-region>,
and he pursued the Israelites, who were going out triumphantly.&#148; The action
resulted in a great loss of his military: Exodus 14:23-28 &#147;The Egyptians set
out in pursuit&#151;all Pharaoh&#146;s horses, his chariots, and his horsemen&#151;and went
into the sea after them. Then during the morning watch, the LORD looked down on
the Egyptian forces from the pillar of fire and cloud, and threw them into
confusion. He caused their chariot wheels to swerve and made them drive with
difficulty. &#147;Let&#146;s get away from <st1:country-region><st1:place>Israel</st1:place></st1:country-region>,&#148;
the Egyptians said, &#147;because the LORD is fighting for them against <st1:country-region><st1:place>Egypt</st1:place></st1:country-region>!&#148;
Then the LORD said to Moses, &#147;Stretch out your hand over the sea so that the
waters may come back on the Egyptians, on their chariots and horsemen.&#148; So
Moses stretched out his hand over the sea, and at daybreak the sea returned to
its normal depth. While the Egyptians were trying to escape from it, the LORD overthrew
them in the sea. The waters came back and covered the chariots and horsemen,
the entire army of Pharaoh, that had gone after them into the sea. None of them
survived.&#148;</p>

<p>Just as it happened back then, disregard for Satan&#146;s advice, the rulers of
the world are being motivated by the Creator&#146;s thoughts to bring down Satan&#146;s
empire so that none of them survive Christ&#146;s onslaught to free this planet for
his future Kingdom, its subjects, and his Millennial rule. Father Yahweh
hardens hearts to bring Her will to fruition and perform miracles that their
tin god cannot perform: Exodus 10:1 &#147;[ The Eighth Plague: Locusts ] Then the
LORD said to Moses, &#147;Go to Pharaoh, for I have hardened his heart and the
hearts of his officials so that I may do these miraculous signs of Mine among
them,&#148;</p>

<p>So how is Father using Her power to alter the thinking of Satan&#146;s rulers in
these end times? And what effect will it have in the coming months?</p>

<p><st1:country-region><st1:place>China</st1:place></st1:country-region> is
holding more than one trillion in <st1:country-region><st1:place>U.S.</st1:place></st1:country-region>
currency debt. And even though <st1:country-region><st1:place>China</st1:place></st1:country-region>
is presently benefitting from trade with the <st1:country-region><st1:place>United
  States</st1:place></st1:country-region>, she has a bur in her side over the <st1:place><st1:PlaceType>Republic</st1:PlaceType>
 of <st1:PlaceName>Taiwan</st1:PlaceName></st1:place>. The <st1:country-region><st1:place>U.S.</st1:place></st1:country-region>
continues to commit herself in weapon sales to <st1:country-region><st1:place>Taiwan</st1:place></st1:country-region>.
Because of this ongoing aid to that country, China will put aside profitable trade
relations, seeking to devastate the U.S. economy by dumping the U.S. debt it
holds on the world market. When this occurs, it will cause a sharp devaluation
of the U.S. dollar, and there will be a loss of faith by the world community in
the <st1:country-region><st1:place>United States</st1:place></st1:country-region>
economy. Even though this would cause a loss to <st1:country-region><st1:place>China</st1:place></st1:country-region>
on their investment as well, they feel their own economy can withstand the harm
that would result from such an action in breaking the financial back of the <st1:country-region><st1:place>United
  States</st1:place></st1:country-region>. However, this action would affect
only approximately 3 percent of the <st1:country-region><st1:place>U.S.</st1:place></st1:country-region>
economy, but with other factors involved, such as the amounts of debt to
finance the <st1:country-region><st1:place>Iraq</st1:place></st1:country-region>
and <st1:country-region><st1:place>Afghanistan</st1:place></st1:country-region>
conflicts, and the ever growing national disaster relief funds, the <st1:country-region><st1:place>United
  States</st1:place></st1:country-region> will feel the quake of such an action
on <st1:country-region><st1:place>China</st1:place></st1:country-region>&#146;s
part. Next, Father will motivate the leaders of OPEC to change and price oil in
Euro Dollars. This will be because the confidence once felt in the <st1:country-region><st1:place>U.S.</st1:place></st1:country-region>
will have taken a drastic change for the worse.</p>

<p>Things will then quickly advance to higher fuel prices. This will result in
all tangible goods going up in price. The end result will be disgruntled
nations of people enslaved in trying to make ends meet. There will be a
backlash felt around the globe as people come to realize that hope for a
brighter more secure future has become lost in governmental mishandling of
world economics and foreign policies. Satan&#146;s worldwide empire will begin to
crumble away as rioting and volatile conflicts erupt around the globe.</p>

<p>Satan sees all of these things about to give birth, yet he&#146;s powerless to
get his world rulers in sinch. He seeks to do the opposite of what Father has
laid forth in prophecy of the Word. In a last ditch effort to try and save his
kingdom, he&#146;ll walk straight into Father&#146;s plan for the anti-Christ. Satan will
take steps to try and rectify the world economy, but he&#146;ll fail miserably.
Isaiah <st1:time minute="12" hour="17">17:12</st1:time> &#147;[ Judgment against the
Nations ] Ah! The roar of many peoples&#151; they roar like the roaring of the seas.
The raging of the nations&#151; they rage like the raging of mighty waters.&#148; Isaiah <st1:time hour="17" minute="30">5:30</st1:time> &#147;On that day they will roar over it, like
the roaring of the sea. When one looks at the land, there will be darkness and
distress; light will be obscured by clouds.&#148;</p>

<p>Proverbs 20:2 &#147;A king&#146;s terrible wrath is like the roaring of a lion; anyone
who provokes him endangers himself.&#148; Revelation 10:3 &#147;and he cried out with a
loud voice like a roaring lion. When he cried out, the seven thunders spoke
with their voices.&#148; Isaiah 44:6 [ No God Other Than Yahweh ] This is what the
LORD, the King of Israel and its Redeemer, the LORD of Hosts, says: I am the
first and I am the last. There is no God but Me.&#148;</p>

<p>1 Corinthians 15:58 &#147;Therefore, my dear brothers, be steadfast, immovable,
always excelling in the Lord&#146;s work, knowing that your labor in the Lord is not
in vain.&#148;</p>

<p>Genesis <st1:time hour="22" minute="17">22:17</st1:time> &#147;I will indeed
bless you and make your offspring as numerous as the stars in the sky and the
sand on the seashore. Your offspring will possess the gates of their enemies.&#148;</p>

    <title><![CDATA[How Things Will Soon Change]]></title>
    <link href="http://pathtoyahweh.webs.com/articlesforthought.htm?blogentryid=3532431"/>
    <content type="html"><![CDATA[

<p><strong>By </strong><st1:City><st1:place><strong>Regina</strong></st1:place></st1:City><strong><o:p></o:p></strong></p>

<p><strong>Colossians 1:16</strong><em>because by Him everything was created,
in heaven and on earth, the visible and the invisible, whether thrones or
dominions or rulers or authorities&#151; all things have been created through Him
and for Him.</em></p>

<p>In past blogs I&#146;ve spoken quite a bit about the Spirit Realm; explaining
that it does truly exist as well as detailing its inner workings and even
sharing photographs with you that have served as glimpses into this invisible
realm. I have done this to illustrate that everything in creation, whether it
be in the Physical or Spiritual Realms, is connected and fits together like an
enormous jigsaw puzzle, much like the Holy Scriptures themselves.</p>

<p>In the scripture referenced above, it clearly states that our heavenly
Father created all things visible and invisible through Michael the Word,
Father&#146;s only direct creation and His master craftsman. Part of that invisible
is the Spirit Realm, and just like Father is real, it is also very real.</p>

<p>So, why is The Kingdom Message of Salvation, our message to mankind, so very
urgent? In it we say that the hourglass is almost empty and that time grows
short and with each day that passes the message grows even more urgent and with
each minute that passes, millions of eternal lives remain at risk. Before I
explain why, I&#146;d like to go over some verbiage that is commonly used in the
Spirit Realm so that you will better understand.</p>

<p><strong>Passed Over </strong>- Passed Over, or Passing Over is the actual
transition via death, from physical life to spiritual life. It is the Passing
Over from the Physical Realm into the Spiritual Realm. That term is used in
connection with the Biblical &#147;Passover&#148; meaning: Passover to the presence of
Heaven, but not yet Sanctified.<br>
<strong>Crossed Over</strong> - Crossed Over in itself is referring to those
that make transition over the Cross. You have to go through the Light, which is
symbolic of going over the cross of Christ for Salvation and sanctification of
his Sacrifice for Mankind.<br>
<strong>Edge of Light House Worship</strong> - A location in the Spirit Realm,
where those who have Passed Over are brought for counseling on the Truth of
Father&#146;s Way before Crossing Over.<br>
<strong>Holy Ghost</strong> - A person who has Passed Over, Crossed Over and
become a part of Father&#146;s Holy Family, in service to Him in the capacity of a
Holy Ghost in one of the 144,000 Holy Ghost Orders.<br>
<strong>Convert</strong> -A person who has Passed Over, attended the Edge of
Light House Worship and who have, via their own free will, rejected the counsel
they were given there. They have in effect, &#147;converted&#148; to Satan&#146;s way of
thinking and have not Crossed Over.</p>

<p>Right now, and in the past, everyone who Passes Over is given the
opportunity to learn the Truth of Father&#146;s Way. Those who committed vile crimes
while they were alive, receive their just punishment and find themselves in the
dark realms (Abyss), but everyone else, regardless of who they were, where they
lived or what they believed, even if they never heard the name Jesus Christ,
are given the opportunity to find out what the truth really is once they&#146;ve
Passed Over.</p>

<p>However, things will soon change.</p>

<p>Because we have been living in the End Times, and are currently experiencing
the Great Tribulation as Armageddon looms around the corner, there will be a
day when the opportunity to find out the Truth will end. Just as in Noah&#146;s day
and age, when the time came for the <st1:State><st1:place>Ark</st1:place></st1:State>
door to close before the onslaught of the rain, so will the <st1:State><st1:place>Ark</st1:place></st1:State>
door close on those living in this day and age before the onslaught of the Holy
Invasion begins. In the same way that the deluge of water wiped out all the
evil in the world, so will the Holy Angels when they arrive for the invasion of
Armageddon.</p>

<p>When that time occurs, there will have already been a Rapture of Father&#146;s
faithful from the earth. This will include all children, who were covered by
Christ under his atonement and are special in Father&#146;s eyes over that of an
adult who is capable of reasoning out the Truth. Until a child reaches the age
of accountability, they are covered by the Ransom Sacrifice as though
unblemished. The age of accountability is when a child can reason things out in
his or her own mind to adequately satisfy Father that they are mentally
competent to do so. For everyone else, they will be held accountable and this
is where the conditions of their own hearts comes into play.</p>

<p>In the Kingdom Message of Salvation, we explain that the two things required
to obtain salvation is an acceptance of Christ as Lord and Savior as well as a
good heart condition. A good heart is a humble heart. A heart that will accept
Christ as Lord and Savior as well as the Truth of Father&#146;s Way.</p>

<p>The reason that our message is so urgent, is because when Armageddon begins,
there will no longer be the opportunity to be counseled on the Truth of
Father&#146;s Way after Passing Over. The symbolic <st1:State><st1:place>Ark</st1:place></st1:State>
door will be closed and it will be a time of great chaos and terror and
deception. Those who find themselves left behind after the first Rapture MUST
cling to their faith in Father with every ounce of strength in them in order to
have the hope of being taken in the second Rapture of Father&#146;s faithful from
this planet, just prior to the end of Armageddon.</p>

<p>There is not time to say, &#147;Well one day I&#146;ll know for sure what the truth
is&#133;&#148; because we are sharing the truth with you here and now. Sadly, only a handful
will be accepting of this truth. Most will find out for themselves when
Armageddon begins. And even then, many will still not believe.</p>

<p>We have been ministering the Kingdom Message of Salvation to the masses for
almost three years now - nearly the same amount of time in which Christ
ministered during his time on earth.<span style="">&nbsp; </span>For
now, the door to salvation is still open. But it will not remain that way for
much longer. Our prayer is for all those we have reached, whether they&#146;ve been
accepting of our message or not; that one day they will remember what we&#146;ve
said, accept it for the truth that it is, welcome Christ into their hearts,
turn to Father in prayer and believe.</p>

    <title><![CDATA[Why is this Special Edition Newsletter directed to the Jehovah&#146;s Witnesses?]]></title>
    <link href="http://pathtoyahweh.webs.com/articlesforthought.htm?blogentryid=3532418"/>
    <content type="html"><![CDATA[



<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 12pt 0in; text-align: justify;">In this dying world full of
religious organizations, there is but ONE religious organization that is a close
kin to Yahweh&#146;s truth. They are the Jehovah&#146;s Witnesses and the Archangel
Michael has said that they are not considered unworthy. In fact, they are so
faithful to Yahweh and Christ (even though they use the name Jehovah, which is
the other pronunciation of Father&#146;s name) that the first Rapture will be an eye
opener for them. We pray that it is and that those who belong to the Jehovah&#146;s
Witnesses conform in accurate knowledge to being a part of the second and final
Rapture of Father&#146;s faithful from this planet. </p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 12pt 0in; text-align: justify;">However, what we would like to see
is the Jehovah&#146;s Witnesses accepting TRUTH even before the first Rapture occurs&#133;and
there&#146;s not much time left. This is the reason for this Special Edition
Newsletter. To inform, via reasoning with the scriptures, the truths of some of
the misinterpretations of the Scriptures that they have been taught.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 12pt 0in; text-align: justify;">The authorized Shepherd of the
Jehovah&#146;s Witnesses was chosen to help get Truth out to mankind at one time;
but Christ warned that the Shepherd had better be doing what was supposed to be
done when he arrived for the inspection in these last days. Because they have
misinterpreted much of the Word&#146;s true meaning, they have been in the dark on
much of what Yahweh meant. The Shepherd over the Jehovah&#146;s Witnesses became
corrupt, but the Jehovah&#146;s Witnesses did not become corrupt intentionally. </p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 12pt 0in; text-align: justify;">If a Jehovah&#146;s Witness does not
conform to what the Watchtower says the Scriptures mean, they are
disfellowshipped as renegades of that truth. They are currently in BONDAGE to a
corrupt Shepherd in the SAME way that the Israelites were in slavery in <st1:country-region><st1:place>Egypt</st1:place></st1:country-region>.
Yahweh&#146;s intent is to free them by signs and by reasoning out what they have
been misled on in the Word. They are under a hard and oppressive yoke of their
governing Shepherd and this is not Yahweh&#146;s Way. Yahweh wishes for the yoke to
be broken away and for the Jehovah&#146;s Witnesses to be freed from this bondage.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 12pt 0in; text-align: justify;">This article and the messages
contained within is specifically directed to the Jehovah&#146;s Witnesses. I will be
touching only on their beliefs which are not accurate and reasoning via the
scriptures as to why this is so. This message is delivered out of love and
compassion and it is our heartfelt prayer for all who read it, Jehovah&#146;s
Witness or not, that their eyes and hearts and minds are open to receiving the
valuable counsel which is being imparted here today. The following are taken
directly from the Jehovah&#146;s Witnesses website under the section that outlines
their beliefs. </p>



<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;" align="center"><b><u><span style="font-size: 18pt; color: maroon;">The NWT Bible<o:p></o:p></span></u></b></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 12pt 0in; text-align: justify;">The New World Translation Bible was
originally translated from the old scrolls, but the Watchtower Society began to
alter each new printing, changing words to conform to their beliefs. It is no
longer a valid copy in Yahweh&#146;s eyes, of the original meanings conveyed in the
Word. All Scriptures referenced in this and all editions of the Light of Life
Ministry Newsletter are taken from the Holman Christian Standard Bible.</p>

<div style="text-align: center;"><span class="postbody1"><b><u><span style="font-size: 18pt; color: maroon;">Misinterpretation
#1<o:p></o:p></span></u></b></span></div>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;" align="center"><b><span style="font-size: 14pt; color: maroon;">Only a little flock of 144,000 go to
heaven to rule with Christ &amp; they are born again as spiritual sons of God<o:p></o:p></span></b></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 12pt 0in; text-align: justify;">In order to understand this portion,
I must explain how the Spirit Realm works. The Jehovah&#146;s Witnesses believe that
no ghosts exist and that all spirits are demons. Let&#146;s take a look at this
using the Scriptures in order to decipher the Truth. If what the Jehovah&#146;s
Witnesses believe is true, where is the proof that all spirits are demons and
no ghosts exist?</p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 12pt 0in; text-align: justify;"><b><i style="">&#147;or the living know that they will die, but
the dead don&#146;t know anything. There is no longer a reward for them because the
memory of them is forgotten. </i>Ecclesiastes 9:5 <i style=""><o:p></o:p></i></b></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 12pt 0in; text-align: justify;"><b><i style="">&#147;Whatever your hands find to do, do with
[all] your strength, because there is no work, planning, knowledge, or wisdom
in Sheol where you are going.&#148;. </i>Ecclesiastes 9:10 <i style=""><o:p></o:p></i></b></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 12pt 0in; text-align: justify;">This applied before the Ransom
Sacrifice. If you&#146;re born in Christ, you will be raised up at death. It is
merely a transition. In fact, there are many spirits that fell in under the
Ransom Sacrifice that died before Christ&#146;s time. It was a covenant that covers
all of Mankind. Where religions like the Jehovah&#146;s Witnesses get off tract, is
that they think Man was still intended to live in perfection on the Earth as
humans. But Satan altered that Divine Plan when he lied to the first human
pair. The Ransom Sacrifice put things back on track; except that the Heavenly
life was introduced into the picture. Satan and his dark forces are the ones
that Ecclesiastes 9:5 and <st1:time minute="10" hour="9">9:10</st1:time> would
apply to now. They&#146;re the ones with their necks on the chopping block - not
Mankind. We have a Savior that covers all of Mankind. The fallen angels are the
ones that are still on the outs with the Creator. Christ did not sacrifice his
life for the angels that rebelled. </p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 12pt 0in; text-align: justify;">At the Book of <b>Luke 4:33-34: <i style="">&#147;In the synagogue there was a man with a
spirit, an unclean demon, and he shouted with a loud voice: &#145;Ah! What have we
to do with you, Jesus you Nazarene? Did you come to destroy us? I know exactly
who you are, the Holy One of God.&#148;<o:p></o:p></i></b></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 12pt 0in; text-align: justify;"><span style="">Although Satan and his forces consider the
Creator and Christ their enemy, they do not consider themselves equal in power.
They know all life stems from the Creator. Satan wanted to be a god, but one of
lesser power, because he knows the Creator is all powerful. Well, he got his
wish, but not exactly what he wanted. He ended up in a war that he cannot win.
He enticed and pulled other angels into this mess with him. It&#146;s a terrible
thing to know that your Creator wants to kill you someday in the future. But
that&#146;s what these fallen children of Almighty God are faced with every day of
their lives, in a spiritual prison as far as they&#146;re concerned. Their outlook
is not just bleak, it is totally without hope. Revelations 20:7-10 sums it up.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 12pt 0in; text-align: justify;"><b><span style="">&#147;<i style="">When
the 1,000 years are completed, Satan will be released from his prison and will
go out to deceive the nations at the four corners of the earth, Gog and Magog,
to gather them for battle. Their number is like the sand of the sea. They came
up over the surface of the earth and surrounded the encampment of the saints,
the beloved city. Then fire came down from heaven and consumed them. The Devil
who deceived them was thrown into the lake of fire and sulfur where the beast
and the false prophet are, and they will be tormented day and night forever and
ever.&#148; <o:p></o:p></i></span></b></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 12pt 0in; text-align: justify;"><span style="">It is a hopeless War for Satan and those
angels if the Creator does not repeal the judgment. Imprisonment in the Orange
Plane for eternity would be better than all out destruction. At least they
would be alive. That&#146;s just my view on it. <o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 12pt 0in; text-align: justify;"><span style="">Now, in addition to Angels and Demons
existing in the Spirit Realm there are also Converts and Holy Ghosts (not to be
confused with Yahweh&#146;s Holy Spirit/Active Force). A &#147;Convert&#148; is a ghost that
passed over with &#147;white collar&#148; sins. They are not tagged for apprehension, but
they are denied access to entering the Light. </span>They must attend the edge
of Light House of Worship and make atonement for a time. Since they do not fall
under being vile sinners at the time of transition, they commit their sins as a
ghost. Not all &#147;white collar&#148; ghosts become converts. The ones that do are so
named because they converted over to Satan&#146;s way of thinking. They also tempt
other ghosts that have not yet<span style="font-size: 11pt;"> </span>passed
through the Light in an effort to convert them to their way of thinking.<span style="font-size: 11pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 12pt 0in; text-align: justify;"><span style="">Eventually, they will all be declared
negative energy. But in the interim, they are permitted to try and persuade
other ghosts to come over to Satan&#146;s side. They are one of the key elements
that keep many ghosts from entering the upper planes that have passed over to
the other side. They lie and say that it is to be feared; that you cannot come
back if you pass through the light; that the Creator is evil, and Satan is
really good. The Converts are just as bad as Satan and his demons, because they
seek confederates by lying about the Truth, and the Converts will not let go of
the negative energy that is a mix in their makeup.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 12pt 0in; text-align: justify;"><span style="">People don&#146;t know that the term &#147;Crossed&#148;
over, refers to Christ on the Cross. &#147;Crossed Over&#148; in itself is referring to
those that make transition over the Cross. You have to go through the Light,
which is symbolic of going over the cross of Christ for Salvation and
sanctification of his Sacrifice for Mankind. Transition is not really
considered &#147;Crossed Over.&#148; That is not termed over there unless you pass
through the Light. Holy Ghosts have crossed over. Converts are merely in the
Transition stage. <o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 12pt 0in; text-align: justify;"><span style="">The term &#147;crossed over&#148; should not be used
instead of &#147;transition&#148; for those mortals that &#147;pass over&#148; (which is what the
Holy Ghosts refer to as mortals that make transition to the other side. That
term is used in connection with the Biblical &#147;Passover&#148; meaning: Passover to
the presence of Heaven, but not yet Sanctified (the passing through the Light
accomplishes that. It is Baptism by symbolic fire). So, that means that all
people that have not yet gone through the Light are in a stage of Transition. <o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 12pt 0in; text-align: justify;"><span style="">A Convert is different from a ghost that has
not heard the Truth. To become a Convert, you are in trouble and cannot enter
the Light until you atone. It is an infraction that did not warrant being
spiritually tagged. So, that ghost goes to the Edge of Light and begins being
counseled on the Truth. They reject it. Not wanting to be under Sovereign Law.
That keeps them from entry to the Light, until they change their thinking - if
they ever do. At this stage, they are semi-positive/negative energy. A mix.
They are free to leave back through the Azmon Barrier (a barrier around the
earth made up of Azmon Order Angels), or stay on the upper planes; but they are
limited where they can go. They also must abide by the Rules of the War,
regardless which side they&#146;ve chosen to be on. By knowing the Truth, but
declining to come under Sovereign Law in passing through the Light, they are
then declared converts. But many ghosts are not converts, even though they have
not passed through the Light. It&#146;s because they have never been counseled yet.
They do not go on the upper planes. They see the Azmon Barrier, and the
Converts tell many of them that that is the blockade you are faced with once
you go through the Light. The Holy Ghosts tell them otherwise; but many ghosts
refuse to believe them. They stay down here. Eventually, all of those ghosts
will be forced to make a decision, or they will be declared negative energy,
just like the Converts will be.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 12pt 0in; text-align: justify;"><span style="">When you think of a Convert, what do you
think of? Someone nice? They weren&#146;t nice enough to get through the Light
without counseling. They were borderlines that have done something during their
lives that was in need of being understood as bad, and understood that it was a
sin that the Creator saw as grave, but not grave enough to land them in a dark
realm. Once these ghosts realize that they must bend to the Creator and his Son
Christ, they sometimes do not want to give up the idea of what they think is
okay for them to do. If Satan wins they can do as they please under his limited
rule. That sounds appealing to many ghosts that are opposed to Sovereign Holy
Rule. They never lived it on Earth, so why should they now? Especially if
there&#146;s a possibility Satan can win this war. Those pull away. At that point,
they are told that they must learn the Rules of the war, abide by them, or be
declared Negative Energy and be placed into a dark realm. They learn the Rules.
Then they seek to help Satan win; but, they cannot associate with the demons,
because they are primarily enticing other ghosts not to enter the Light, or to
leave the detention plane.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 12pt 0in; text-align: justify;"><span style="">As to all the reasons they have chosen to
remain outside Yahweh&#146;s Ladder of Holy Ghosts, they are varied. It goes back to
free will and dragging baggage of your past life with you when you pass over.
That&#146;s why if you put on the new personality of Christ now, you are not
burdened with that hill to climb if you go there by transition at death instead
of the Rapture.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 12pt 0in; text-align: justify;"><span style="">Another reason some ghosts become Converts,
is because the Spirit Realm appears to be a big playground. They quickly learn
under counseling that when they enter the Light, they will become perfect. Then
they must become a member of one of the 144,000 Holy Ghost Orders and help in
the War against Satan and his demons. They are also warned that if they sin,
they are cast out as negative energy, just like Satan and his demons were. The
fall from perfection is one you cannot come back from. There&#146;s no place to go
but down. Yahweh will not accept you back if you fall from that status. That&#146;s
why he will not offer forgiveness to Satan or his demons. But to date (2005),
no Holy Ghost has ever been ousted. They have all remained faithful. <o:p></o:p></span></p>

returned. Yet, He places a higher value on human souls. Everything has its
place in creation. He created all things for a purpose. An animal, nor an
insect can worship Him. They are of lesser value in His eyes, but they are
nonetheless part of creation. And from Jesus&#146; own words at the prescribed
Scripture, he notes that Yahweh knows even when those of a lesser value have
departed the physical plane for the return home. It is because He owns all of
creation. You, me, all of us, we are here because of His Will. It is a kindness
on His part that any of us exist. When you kill, you are killing something that
belongs to Him. But you are permitted to kill under certain circumstances. You
can kill in self-defense. You can kill because the lower creation, that of
insects are acting as pests. You can kill an animal or a human if they are
trying to physically harm you or someone else. He gives you the right to
protect your life and that of others. It is the wanting of killing for no
reason that He will call you into account. Judge your own actions in all that
you do, for He certainly will call an accounting if you are in error of
judgment.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 12pt 0in; text-align: justify;"><span style="">Animals have been used to represent wild beastlike ruling powers that
oppress people. This illustration typified by animals is because the animal
kingdom does not worship Him due to lesser intelligence. Yahweh is pointing out
through the illustration that the ruling powers lack the same intelligence. But
they lack it due to the Negative Energy they have cultivated from His arch
enemy, Satan the Devil.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 12pt 0in; text-align: justify;"><span style="">Even an insect as small as an ant is in His arrangement of things. The
ants are called &#147;a people&#148; from the Hebrew &#145;am meaning in Proverbs, just as
Joel referred to the locusts as &#147;a nation.&#148; In Joel 1:6 He says it has the
teeth of a lion, the fangs of a lioness. Here Yahweh illustrates with other
animals to make His point what kind of damage this nation of locust can do
under His direction. In Proverbs 6:8 He directs us to the ant. He explains how
the ant exists. He gives divine knowledge into one of His smaller creations.
They live in colonies and are industrious with the instinctive wisdom He has
endowed them with. But what you should note is that Yahweh takes note of even
that tiny creation of His. It is because it too belongs to Him and has its
place in creation. Only when they become a pest is it alright to exterminate
those that cause problems. Otherwise, you are killing something that does not
belong to you. Proverbs 30:24-31 speaks of the lower creations of life. All
have a place in creation. He considers them all extremely wise. He endowed them
with that wisdom.&#148;<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 12pt 0in; text-align: justify;"><span style="">So, just to reiterate, the soul is an extension of Yahweh&#146;s (source of)
energy (the Active Force) and it&#146;s only our intelligence that sets us apart
from the animal and plant kingdom. When the container the soul is stored in
dies, the soul returns to its original place. And the example of the ants -
that is not to say they have intelligence like us. We were created in Yahweh&#146;s
image. That means we possess His attributes. The Ants and other insects, as
well as the animal kingdom possess instinctive wisdom provided by the Creator.
The wisdom of the Ant for example, is not intelligent reasoning like we humans
and ghosts, and angels possess. It simply results from endowed instincts the
insects were given for survival and adaptation of the different environments
they live in. Ants work off scent for paths they cut to the mounds. Their
existence is just an instinctive wisdom. They help in the cycle of life on this
planet, just as all things do. Maggots help to rid the earth of dead things, as
do vultures. All are part of the cycle of life and death on the physical plane
and getting rid of the used up containers. But, we are superior in
intelligence, which is what Yahweh intended that we be.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 12pt 0in; text-align: justify;"><span style="">The common grave is that of those that pass over in &#147;common&#148; of having
no real knowledge of the Truth. When they do pass over, they are then counseled
on the truth and given the option of either accepting it or rejecting it. Hell
is the passing over or through from a physical death to a spiritual life.
Whereas Christ spent time in hell, that was literal for him, because he had to
die a complete death. But, he received the keys of death and resurrection for
all of mankind&#146;s offspring. The only one&#146;s excluded were those in judgments,
which is born out in piecing the jigsaw puzzle of the Word together. To remain
in hell, one must be out of Yahweh&#146;s memory for eternity. This is referred to
as going out the exit.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 12pt 0in; text-align: justify;">The Jehovah&#146;s Witnesses do not
comprehend the use of the word &#147;Resurrection&#148;. Its true meaning is that man was
dead in his trespasses until the sacrificial death of Christ, and His
resurrection. Christ died in <i>exchange</i> for all of Mankind. When you die
and pass over you are given the opportunity, via free will, to either accept or
refuse the truth that is counseled to you. While the human vessel is dead, the
spirit remains alive and this is because of Christ&#146;s Sacrifice and his
Resurrection. However, in order to remain alive for Eternity, one must make it
to the Kingdom Rule of the Millennium. This means accepting the truth that is
counseled to you, agreeing to abide by Yahweh&#146;s Laws and becoming a member of
Father&#146;s family. For those who refuse to join Father&#146;s family once they have
passed over, they are not worthy. In the meantime they are like the demons who

have passed over and are in literal dark realms are the other side of the coin
of actually being imprisoned. They are unable to move beyond them as though
they are chained and cut off from all light. They are like the demons because
they are awaiting the Judgment and only a Judgment carries the eternal death
penalty. Not only did Christ get the keys to death, but also a resurrection of
both the righteous and the unrighteous. </p>

Jehovah&#146;s Witnesses are taught that some Scriptures are literally what they say
and that others have other meanings than what is stated. The Truth is, is that
the Word must blend together in unison. And, because the Watchtower Society
must make things fit to keep their flock, they twist things around to sound as
though they are receiving insight from Yahweh; but, they will not permit the
Jehovah&#146;s Witnesses to use their own God-given psychic abilities because they
want to keep them blinded to the Truth. The Truth is evident in all of
creation, for in all of creation is a record of all events that go on. Yet,
they are not permitted to entertain the thought of using their God-given
ability. This is sad, because in knowing that Yahweh is a fair and righteous
God, you also know that He would not give an ability that wasn&#146;t to be used.
That wouldn&#146;t be fair. It&#146;s actually in HOW you use it that matters most.
Christ set the model for us to follow. He meditated, fasted and had visions. The
truth in regards to Spiritism is that it should not ALL be shunned. I&#146;ll now
explain why.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 12pt 0in; text-align: justify;"><span style="">Some people of the Christian fundamentalist

for the way some people comprehend this as valid in their belief, but is
erroneous on their part. The Scriptures do not say that the supernatural is
wrong &#150; the people misinterpreting the scriptures do. Logically, when so much
of the Bible is in fact supernatural, how could this be true? </span><span style="">What the Scriptures are warning us about are
psychics who work for Satan&#146;s &#147;team&#148;. There are both good and bad on each side.
If someone professes to be psychic, but doesn&#146;t mention scriptures or the

is probably false. <span style="">I&#146;ll try to break
it down for all of you so you can judge for yourselves.</span><o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 12pt 0in; text-align: justify;"><span style="">The Book of Deuteronomy, Chapter 18, verses
10-12 are what many people base their views of psychics on. It says in part
(I&#146;ll quote what pertains to the subject),<b><i>&#148;There should not be found in
you anyone &#133;who employs divination, one who practices magic or anyone who looks
for omens or a sorcerer, or one who binds others with a spell or anyone who
consults a spirit medium or a professional foreteller of events or anyone who
inquires of the dead. For everybody doing these things is something detestable
to God.&#148; </i>Deuteronomy 18:10-12 </b></span><b><span style=""><o:p></o:p></span></b></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 12pt 0in; text-align: justify;"><span style="">Do those Scriptures apply to all modern day
psychics; and, did they apply to all psychics in olden Bible days? Before we
make a judgment call, let&#146;s look at another Holy Scripture found at Isaiah
8:19. After all, the Scriptures are accurate in what they say, so, we should
use them as a guide, but, we need to understand them in the context they were
given. The Scripture says, <b><i>&#147;</i></b></span><b><i style=""><span style="">When they say to you, &#147;Consult
the spirits of the dead and the spiritists who chirp and mutter,&#148; shouldn&#146;t a
people consult their God? [Should they consult] the dead on behalf of the
living?&#148; </span></i></b><b><span style="">Isaiah 8:19 </span></b><span style=""><o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 12pt 0in; text-align: justify;"><span style="">You noted in the above Scripture that it
spelled out the type of mediums to stay away from. They did what? &#147;</span><span style="">When they say to you, &#147;Consult the spirits of
the dead and the spiritists who chirp and mutter<span style="">&#133;&#148; When you think of muttering, what comes to mind? Perhaps what comes
to mind are things that shouldn&#146;t be said or that are untrue? That was pointed
out in the Scripture to differentiate from Satan&#146;s mediums, and those that are
not of satanic origin; the reason for that is because Satan gives his followers
similar psychic abilities, so it was necessary to draw a line between the two
different psychic groups that existed in those days. Those who &#147;mutter&#148; and who
practice magic, sorcery and witchcraft are to be avoided because they are of
satanic origin. That does NOT go for ALL psychics as God also has his own
psychics. Remember what I said about both sides having humans working with them
in the Spiritual War?</span><o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 12pt 0in; text-align: justify;"><span style="">Even today, Satan&#146;s demons imitate deceased
people through the use of talking boards like the Ouija Board or similar
devices. That&#146;s why you always have to be on guard against the evil side of the
psychic coin. To say that absolutely all psychics are evil, is to say that the
apostles and Christ were evil; for they too were psychic. Christ being the most
psychic of the group. Now how silly is that? We know they weren&#146;t evil. And all
psychics are not evil either. Then you have John that wrote the Book of
Revelation. How do people think he got those Revelations? It was given to him
through his psychic mind, as was done with all Bible writers that were inspired
by the Creator to write what he imparted to them by spiritual means. How else
do you think it was that God spoke to them?<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 12pt 0in; text-align: justify;"><span style="">This clearly shows that there were two different kinds of psychics in
existence. There is the good and there is the evil. Just like the Spiritual War
of good verses evil. There are two sides in everything; always two sides to a
coin. The Creator&#146;s Word informs us, <b><i style="">&#148;Test
everything. Hold on to the good...&#148; </i>1 Thessalonians 5:21 <o:p></o:p></b></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 12pt 0in; text-align: justify;"><span style="">So how can we make sure that there are good psychics as well as the bad
ones pointed out in the Scriptures? And does the Bible tell of good psychics?
Yes it does, and I&#146;ll elaborate on that in a moment. First, let&#146;s look again at
the Bible writers. How did they get the messages they received in order to
write what the Creator wanted us to know? Did it not come through their minds?
If you don&#146;t think so, please consider all Scripture is inspired of God and
beneficial for teaching, for reproving, for setting things straight, for
disciplining in righteousness that the man of God may be fully competent,
completely equipped for every good work. As with all things the Creator has
inspired, I&#146;m in full agreement with that Scripture also. By using His Word, we
can come to an understanding of the two different groups of psychics that have
always existed. The Bible says,<b><i style=""> &#147;Also,
this is why we constantly thank God, because when you received the message
about God that you heard from us, you welcomed it not as a human message, but
as it truly is, the message of God, which also works effectively in you
believers.&#148; </i>1 Thessalonians 2:13 </b><i style=""><o:p></o:p></i></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 12pt 0in; text-align: justify;"><span style="">With further use of His inspired Word, I will try and help all of you
to have a better understanding of this psychic issue before you make your
judgment calls. If you believe in the Holy Bible, then you believe it was
inspired by the Creator, and was not of human creativity of the mind&#146;s
imagination; it was indeed the inspired origination from Almighty God&#146;s mind.
So how did the men of the olden Bible days come to write the Creator&#146;s
thoughts? They were moved by the Creator&#146;s spirit to write the Books of
Scriptures we now reverend today. How did He move them with His spirit to do
so? He did it through their minds. What does a psychic use to see or hear
what&#146;s on the other side? They do it through their minds. It&#146;s no different
today than it was back then. So, ask yourself: What is the gift behind the
psychic&#146;s power to see and hear what&#146;s on the other side? It&#146;s Holy Spirit. If
you are a good psychic, it comes from the Creator&#146;s side, not Satan&#146;s. <o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 12pt 0in; text-align: justify;"><b><i style=""><span style="">&#147;First of all, you should know
this: no prophecy of Scripture comes from one&#146;s own interpretation, because no
prophecy ever came by the will of man; instead, moved by the Holy Spirit, men
spoke from God&#148; </span></i></b><b><span style="">2
Peter 1:20-21 <o:p></o:p></span></b></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 12pt 0in; text-align: justify;"><b><span style="">So, was Jesus a psychic or not? John stated, <i style="">&#147;Don&#146;t you believe that I am in the Father and the Father is in Me? The
words I speak to you I do not speak on My own. The Father who lives in Me does
His works.&#148; </i>John 14:10 <o:p></o:p></span></b></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 12pt 0in; text-align: justify;"><span style="">Now that you&#146;ve read that, who&#146;s &#147;work&#148; was that that Jesus referred
to? And, who was in &#147;union&#148; with the greatest psychic of all time? It was his
Father, the Creator. So now, think back. What did 2 Peter 1:20-21 say? Who was <b><i style="">&#147;carried along by Holy Spirit&#148;</i>? </b>It
was not only Jesus, but those associated with him that received the Holy
Spirit. So what were all of those people? They were psychics. If they had not
been, they could not have been &#147;carried along&#148; in their minds by &#147;Holy Spirit.&#148;
It&#146;s that simple.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 12pt 0in; text-align: justify;"><span style="">It&#146;s been revealed that we are indeed surrounded by Holy Ghosts. Where
did you think psychic ability comes from? Well it&#146;s certainly not Satan. The
book of 2 Peter explained in those Scriptures I cited where the power manifests
itself from. It is from &#147;Holy Spirit&#148;. Again, we are surrounded by Holy Ghosts
who are in fact Holy Spirits. That is where the power of all good psychics is
imparted through from the Creator.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 12pt 0in; text-align: justify;"><span style="">Still not convinced that there are good and bad psychics? Well, let&#146;s
look at some more Scriptures. Ephesians states in part, <b><i style="">&#147;For our battle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers,
against the authorities, against the world powers of this darkness, against the
spiritual forces of evil in the heavens.&#148; </i>Ephesians 6:12 </b><o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 12pt 0in; text-align: justify;"><span style="">Why do we have this fight against these spiritual forces of evil?
Because they not only use thought injection and physical harassment, but they
have their own class of psychics. They are the bad ones. Timothy states, <b><i style="">&#147;The Spirit explicitly says that in latter
times some will depart from the faith paying attention to deceitful spirits and
the teachings of demons.&#148; </i>Timothy 4:1 </b><o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 12pt 0in; text-align: justify;"><span style="">So, did you think that Jesus and his followers were not really psychic,
when you read in that Scripture that Satan&#146;s demons inspire false &#147;misleading
inspired utterances,&#148; from people that have infiltrated the Christian religious
community? Think about it. How could they mislead unless they were in a
preaching position? Yet, they receive what through their minds? &#147;Inspired utterances&#148;
that are &#147;misleading&#148;. By having that ability or gift from Satan, they are
tuned into the Dark Empire as his own breed of psychics. They are the bad ones.
They have existed since the olden Bible days; this is pointed out in Exodus
where it states in part, <b><i style="">&#147;The
magicians could not stand before Moses because of the boils, for the boils were
on the magicians as well as on all the Egyptians.&#148;</i> Exodus 9:11 </b><o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 12pt 0in; text-align: justify;"><span style="">Those magic-practicing priests were part of the olden Bible days
psychics that Satan utilized by imparting power to them from the dark side of
his angelic abilities. It did not come from Holy Spirit. In Isaiah it states in
part, <b><i style="">&#147;</i></b></span><st1:country-region><st1:place><b><i style=""><span style="">Egypt</span></i></b></st1:place></st1:country-region><b><i style=""><span style="">&#146;s
spirit will be disturbed within it, and I will frustrate its plans. Then they
will seek idols, ghosts, spirits of the dead, and spiritists.&#148; </span></i></b><b><span style="">Isaiah 19:3 </span></b><span style=""><o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 12pt 0in; text-align: justify;"><span style="">Here, you plainly see that Satan&#146;s psychics are made up of &#147;mediums and
spiritists&#148; but, do you still think all psychics fall under Satan&#146;s power? If
you do, then where did Moses get his power that was more powerful than the
magic-practicing priests of Satan&#146;s? Moses himself was psychic. All people
associated with writing the Bible and doing the Creator&#146;s work were psychic.
Jesus earth mother was psychic. Mary&#146;s earth husband was psychic. He was
contacted by one of the Creator&#146;s angel&#146;s concerning Mary&#146;s immaculate
pregnancy. There are both good and bad psychics. If you believe in the
Creator&#146;s inspired Scriptures, but you still think all psychics are from
Satan&#146;s side, then please consider this: <b><i style="">&#147;After

out. It is a balance of who is receiving and revealing inspired psychic visions

<p style="margin: 12pt 0in; text-align: justify;"><span style="">Are dreams also
considered taboo? Many psychics have them. Consider the following Scripture: <b>Matthew
</b></span><st1:time minute="13" hour="14"><b><span style="">2:13</span></b></st1:time><b><span style=""> <i style="">&#147;After they were gone, an angel of the Lord

and stay there until I tell you. For Herod is about to search for the child to
destroy Him.&#148;</span></i></b><span style=""> <o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p style="margin: 12pt 0in; text-align: justify;"><span style="">So you see, it
all depends on which side of the coin the psychic experience is coming from. If
it was wrong to have a psychic dream, Joseph would not have had that dream. <o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p style="margin: 12pt 0in; text-align: justify;"><span style="">So how do you
know if the information is coming from Yahweh or Satan&#146;s side? <b>1 John 4:2-3
tells us how. <i style="">&#147;This is how you know the
Spirit of God: Every spirit who confesses that Jesus Christ has come in the
flesh is from God. But every spirit who does not confess Jesus is not from
God...&#148;</i><o:p></o:p></b></span></p>

<p style="margin: 12pt 0in; text-align: justify;"><span style="">If they do not
confess the truth, then you know they are working on Satan&#146;s side of the war
because they are in a spiritual war to lead people away from the Truth, not to
it. If what the spirit reveals to a psychic, or through a psychic to other
listeners, if it does not jive with what is written in the Holy Scriptures,
then you know the psychic is working with the wrong side; unless of course,
you&#146;re for Satan&#146;s side. Since the Scriptures cited deals with incoming
communications from spirits, that alone should tell you that communication with
the proper side is permissible. In order to communicate with a spirit, you have
to be psychic. If it was wrong to use your inherent abilities to perceive the
Spirit Realm communications, then you would not have been endowed with those
attributes. Why would Yahweh give you an ability, and then say you are not to
use it? If that had been the case, the inspired writings of His Holy Books -
the Word, would not have come into existence. For I tell you, those mortal
human writers were indeed psychic in order to receive communications from the
Spirit Realm where the spirits exist. Please note how the Books of the Word
were given: <o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p style="margin: 12pt 0in; text-align: justify;"><span style="">Because Jesus
had powers they could not understand, they correlated that he was on the
opposing side of Yahweh. Christ is the Greatest Psychic that ever lived. Let&#146;s
back up two verses: <b>Matthew 12:22-23 <i style="">&#147;Then
a demon-possessed man who was blind and unable to speak was brought to Him. He
healed him, so that the man could both speak and see. And all the crowds were

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 12pt 0in; text-align: justify;"><span style="">Bottom line, being psychic is a God given gift. It&#146;s not the same thing
as magic or sorcery or witchcraft. This being said, psychics are part of God&#146;s
creation and they are part of his plan. It&#146;s up to the individual who possesses
these psychic gifts as to how he or she wishes to use them - for good or for
evil - using yet another God given gift of free will. People will always fear
that which they do not understand and they will always make judgments without
understanding the full truth, but to claim that psychics and the supernatural
are taboo to Christianity is simply a broad statement and sheer ignorance made

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 12pt 0in; text-align: justify;">This is quite simply a lie. When a
person passes over and accepts Truth is when they are permitted to cross over
into Yahweh&#146;s light. The cross is the symbol of more than just passing over from
his death to life &#150; it is a crossing over. The cross is like that of a plus
sign (+). It also represents a cross road. Do you veer off to either side or do
you go up to Yahweh? Where did Christ ultimately go because of obedience and
death he manifested? He went up to His Father in heaven. But, how many make it
to the middle of the cross and don&#146;t go on up? They veer off, and so they never
reach Yahweh even if they pass over because they will never cross over past the
tee of the crosses divide. One must move up past that of being nailed and
become a saint in Yahweh&#146;s eyes &#150; standing on our own merit.</p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 12pt 0in; text-align: justify;">The Word from Yahweh says to not
despise prophecies, but to test all things and hold on to what is good (1

you come to an accurate knowledge to make sure of all things so that you can
hold fast of what is fine? And what did the Word mean in regards to

than merely his having been nailed to it? Does it matter whether we believe the
torture stake was a Cross, or was an upright stake? It should, because all
things in the Word are representative of symbolic things that Yahweh wants us
to be enlightened to in order to fully understand what He has revealed through
His Word to mankind. In coming to an enlightened understanding, we are able to
see how the pieces of the jigsaw puzzle come together as we insert them into
Yahweh&#146;s Divine Plan that is brought through His wisdom of divine revelation. How

advance'."</p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 12pt 0in; text-align: justify;">It means that the Word is a profit
to those that progress in attaining an additional share of wisdom imparted by
Father concerning His Divine Plan.</p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 12pt 0in; text-align: justify;">Those same Scriptures also impart
"for rebuking..." And what does rebuking mean?</p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 12pt 0in; text-align: justify;"><b>Dictionary:</b> "rebuke
&gt;verb criticize or reprimand sharply. &gt;noun a sharp criticism. <br>
-ORIGIN Old French rebuker 'beat down'."</p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 12pt 0in; text-align: justify;">So, those that are wiser in Father's
Divine Plan from what the Word teaches are to "reprimand sharply"
those that would lead you astray. But why would any Shepherd want to lead
anyone astray? It could be a number of reasons. </p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 12pt 0in; text-align: justify;">One being that they do not fully
comprehend the Word's symbolic meanings, and in doing so create a false view of
what the Word is revealing as a whole. Or, they know the accurate Truth, but
are seeking to alter the Word's meaning so as to sew up a faith for their own
followers. </p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 12pt 0in; text-align: justify;">But why would any Shepherd do that,
knowing they are misconstruing the Word's meaning - telling lies? </p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 12pt 0in; text-align: justify;">The answer is GREED and POWER. </p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 12pt 0in; text-align: justify;">Satan set the pattern for such
behavior long ago. He was greedy because he coveted what was not his <span style="">&nbsp;</span>and he wanted to have power over what was not
his. Satan knew the truth of Father, yet he lied in an effort to gain
confederates, and to sew them to his faith of deception that he created. </p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 12pt 0in; text-align: justify;">Is there any difference in those
humans that willingly lie to keep their misguided flocks? Knowing the Truth is
not a defense to telling outright lies and deceiving people; Satan proved that
point, and his human confederates prove that point by following in Satan's
footsteps.<br>
<br>
Next, the Word goes on to say "for correcting," What is correcting?</p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 12pt 0in; text-align: justify;"><b>Dictionary:</b> "correction
&gt;noun 1 the action or process of correcting. 2 a change that rectifies an
error or inaccuracy. -DERIVATIVES correctional &gt;adjective (chiefly N.
Amer.)."</p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 12pt 0in; text-align: justify;">So, I'm going to correct the error
on a point of inaccuracy by those that claim to be spokesmen for Father's
Divine Plan as detailed within His Word given to all of us. It will be a
"change that" should "rectify" their fostered "error
of inaccuracy" concerning what they have asserted as being truth to their
followers. By doing that, I will be doing my part in exposing the LIE, and in
"training in righteousness," those of you that seek to be people of
Yahweh and Christ "may be complete, "equipped for every good
work." It is not my stewardship to teach/impart to anyone but Father's
flock; but those that read this will either have their eyes opened, or they
will continue to blindly follow the blind teachers; the choice is of course one
of free will. Father does not force anyone to accept His Word, or to be a
member of His holy family. </p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 12pt 0in; text-align: justify;">The Cross of Salvation is more than
an impalement stake. In addition to it representing the Ransom: 1 <b>Timothy
2:5, 6 <i>"For there is one God and one mediator between God and man, a
man, Christ Jesus, who gave Himself&#151;a ransom for all, a testimony at the proper
time".</i></b><i> <o:p></o:p></i></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 12pt 0in; text-align: justify;">He was Jesus Christ, and then became
Christ Jesus, because he had paid the Ransom. There's a difference. As Jesus,
he was tested as the promised Anointed One. As Christ Jesus, he had
successfully fulfilled his anointment by willing laying his perfect life down
for ALL OF MANKIND; not just those that had faith in him - but for all of us. However,
his Sacrifice was only held as being judicial in ransoming the offspring of
Adam and Eve, and those not destroyed in Judicial Judgments previously brought
upon individuals of Mankind. </p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 12pt 0in; text-align: justify;">The Word is clear that there were
some that were undeserving of the Cross of Salvation. Adam and Eve could not be
ransomed anymore than Satan and his angels, because they had been previously
perfect in Father's eyes. You cannot Ransom a perfect life for those that were
once perfect. There is no judicial sacrifice for those that were close to
Father, and then defied His authority. They had been enlighten to the Truth and
Sovereignty of Yahweh, and for them, the fall was permanent. Those that serve
as examples of Judicial punishment, like the ones that perished at the global
flood, and some that were Judged - like Adam and Eve and Cain prior to the
flood, or Sodom and Gomorrah, and those that were singled out by Father as
godless people down through the historical accounts of the Word, they are out
the EXIT of Father's memory when they die - meaning they will never live again
- they died a literal death of both fleshly vessel and spiritual. </p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 12pt 0in; text-align: justify;"><b>Psalms 146: 4 <i>"When his
breath leaves him, he returns to the ground; on that day his plans die."</i></b><i>
<o:p></o:p></i></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 12pt 0in; text-align: justify;">That is Holman's version of the
Word; but what of other translations? The TRUTH is still evident: The New
International Version: <b><i>"When their spirit departs, they return to
the ground; on that very day their plans come to nothing."</i> </b></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 12pt 0in; text-align: justify;">How do we know this Scripture makes
reference to those that are out the EXIT? Because his spirit departed, not to a
passing over to the other realm, because - "their plans come to
nothing." Outside the EXIT there is nothing, because outside of Yahweh is
non existence. But what were their plans that came to nothing? Do you think it
means the plans of their earthly life? Consider that any plan contrary to
Father's Divine Plan is in opposition to His Will; so, even if it referred to
an plan they sought on this side of the veil, it was in vain, because Father
does not join other plans to His own.</p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 12pt 0in; text-align: justify;"><b>Psalm 146:4 (New King James
Version) <i>"His spirit departs, he returns to his earth; In that very day
his plans perish."</i></b> </p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 12pt 0in; text-align: justify;">If that person were within Father's
Divine Plan, he or she would not depart, but would pass over to the spirit
realm; there, people lacking a full understanding of the TRUTH, who have not
made plans that are contrary to Father's Will are given ample opportunity to
join His family under counseling by His Holy Ghosts. But if the person is given
opportunity and rejects the Truth, "And it shall be that every soul who
will not hear that Prophet shall be utterly destroyed from among the
people." This can occur before a death in the flesh, or even after passing
over; it depends upon the amount of knowledge one possesses; with accurate
knowledge comes responsibility<b>: Acts </b><st1:time minute="26" hour="20"><b>20:26</b></st1:time><b>,
<i>27 "Therefore I testify to you this day that I am innocent of the blood
of all men. For I have not shunned to declare to you the whole counsel of
God."</i></b> </p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 12pt 0in; text-align: justify;">The "whole counsel" in
itself reveals there's more than meets the eye; you put yourself in a
precarious position with Father while on this planet if you shun the complete
Truth once you have learned it, and you fail to declare the Truth of the whole
jigsaw puzzle that represents Father's counsel to Mankind. To do so, carries
the penalty of the EXIT at your physical death. I'm not talking about criminals
that do not know the Word - they have a punishment phase they go through,
because the Cross of Salvation was meant for all of Mankind. I'm talking about
those that intentionally mislead their flock to gain monetary benefit and power
in the process while on this planet. </p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 12pt 0in; text-align: justify;"><b>Psalm 6:5 <i>"For in death
there is no remembrance of You; In the grave who will give You thanks?"</i>
<o:p></o:p></b></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 12pt 0in; text-align: justify;">They are simply sent into non
existence in this reference. Out of Father's memory; the EXIT is the <st1:place><st1:PlaceType>Lake</st1:PlaceType>
 of <st1:PlaceName>Fire</st1:PlaceName></st1:place> that Satan and all of his
confederates are soon to share. For them, it is a grave.</p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 12pt 0in; text-align: justify;"><b>Dictionary:</b> "grave1
&gt;noun 1 a hole dug in the ground to receive a coffin or corpse. 2 (the
grave) death. -PHRASES dig one's own grave do something foolish which causes
one's downfall. turn in one's grave (of a dead person) be likely to have been
angry or distressed about something had they been alive. -ORIGIN Old
English."</p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 12pt 0in; text-align: justify;">"downfall." Satan's
downfall leads to a grave of his own making. He dug his own pit of non
redemption; Father created his pit of demise that leads to being stricken from
His memory for reanimation after the final test has concluded. Before him and
his angels get exited, there will be many that go outside Father's memory ahead
of them.</p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 12pt 0in; text-align: justify;"><b>Hebrews 10:26, 27 <i>"For if
we sin willfully after we have received the knowledge of the truth, there no
longer remains a sacrifice for sins, but a certain fearful expectation of
judgment, and fiery indignation which will devour the adversaries."</i></b>
</p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 12pt 0in; text-align: justify;">To have been under the Ransom
Sacrifice, received the undeserved kindness, come to know the accurate truth,
and then to act decidedly in committing sin after all just mentioned, there can
be no further atonement for those that do so. So, where were they on the Cross
of Salvation at the time they lost out on the hope of Salvation? They were at
the cross-member of the Cross that held Christ's hands to the Cross. They go no
farther than that; it was a cross road that led off to destruction;
symbolically, their feet are still nailed to the sin that Christ bore through
his body; but their hands were freed to make a choice; to live eternal, you are
not to veer off the path that leads upward to Father. When Christ was
resurrected, he went up; his impalement to the cross-member of the impalement
torture stake was then no longer a hindrance to him. His feet were freed from
the sin that had brought him on his mission; his arms never failed to form the
"Y" while he was on the Cross of Salvation; that was for a purpose;
it represented that Yahweh is the WAY out of sin - Upward to Father in His
Wisdom and His kindness to save all those that can discern the Truth and abide
within it.</p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 12pt 0in; text-align: justify;">So, if you doubt the validity of the
torture stake having been an upright post with a transverse post attached, then
you do not yet comprehend the meaning of the Cross in its symbolism in Father's
enlightenment of the Word. All things coming from Father have symbolic
meanings; whether it be water, fire, people, or even the Cross. <b>To devaluate
the Word by implying that Christ did not die as represented in the Word, is to
devaluate the Sacrifice he made in Father's Great Name.</b> In addition, the
Cross was represented symbolically at: <b>Numbers 32:5 <i>"They said,
"If we have found favor in your sight, let this land be given to your
servants as a possession. Don't make us cross the </i></b><st1:country-region><st1:place><b><i>Jordan</i></b></st1:place></st1:country-region><b><i>."</i></b>
</p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 12pt 0in; text-align: justify;">Each time, whether it was a crossing
into the old Promised Land of the Israelites, or that of crossing the <st1:place>Red
 Sea</st1:place>, it was to typify the coming of the Jesus Christ that would be
centered in the CROSS of Salvation. In the center, he would be noted as what?
The WAY to Father. You cannot CROSS into the future Promised Land with out
hitting the center mark of the TRUTH - which is Christ Jesus. He is the Living
Word, and all must go through him to reach Father - just as he formed the
"Y" on the Cross of Salvation as a Sign that you must move up and
beyond the cross-member to reach Him, he was giving a symbolic message with his
hands being staked in that position. To say he was impaled any other way is to
try and invalidate Father's Word in both accurate knowledge of the writings,
and His symbolic message meant for enlightenment.</p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><b>Psalms 119:63 <i>"I am a
companion of all who fear You, And of those who keep Your precepts."<o:p></o:p></i></b></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><br>
<b>Dictionary:</b> precept &gt;noun 1 a general rule regulating behavior or
thought. 2 a writ or warrant. 3 Brit. an order issued by one local authority to
another specifying the rate of tax to be charged on its behalf. -ORIGIN Latin
praeceptum 'something advised'."</p>

<P class=MsoNormal style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt"><SPAN class=postbody1><SPAN style="FONT-SIZE: 11pt; mso-bidi-font-weight: bold">By Regina</SPAN></SPAN></P>
<P class=MsoNormal style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt"><SPAN class=postbody1><SPAN style="FONT-SIZE: 11pt; mso-bidi-font-weight: bold"></SPAN></SPAN>&nbsp;</P>
<P class=MsoNormal style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt"><SPAN class=postbody1><SPAN style="FONT-SIZE: 11pt; mso-bidi-font-weight: bold">The other night I was thinking about all the past events of my life thus far. They were mainly the events that took place in which I encountered a crossroads &#150; where I had or chose to make a decision that altered the course of my life. And, I was thinking about how through the majority of them God did not play a part in the decisions I made. Not because He didn't want to, but because I didn't let Him. Never once did I ask Him via prayer what He might want me to do and never once did I take into consideration what Christ Jesus would have done while he lived on this earth. I have to wonder now, how different my life might have been had I made God a part of my every decision making process. </SPAN></SPAN><SPAN style="FONT-SIZE: 11pt; mso-bidi-font-weight: bold"><BR><BR><SPAN class=postbody1><SPAN style="mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt; mso-ansi-font-size: 11.0pt">I know for certain that had I drawn closer to God earlier on in my life I would have made many different decisions. I also know that the decisions I did make with God in mind, would have had many different outcomes. Rather than walking my own path, I would have been walking the one God had in mind for me. That doesn't mean that my life would have been any easier than it was, but it does mean that I would have remained pleasing in His sight and if you have true faith in God you know that all He wants is for our best interests. On top of that, He provides for and rewards those who remain true to Him. His faithful love is constant. </SPAN></SPAN><BR><BR><SPAN class=postbody1><SPAN style="mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt; mso-ansi-font-size: 11.0pt">Exodus 34:6 "Yahweh is a compassionate and gracious God, slow to anger and rich in faithful love and truth," </SPAN></SPAN><BR><BR><SPAN class=postbody1><SPAN style="mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt; mso-ansi-font-size: 11.0pt">Sometimes flipping through the TV channels I come across different talk shows where guests are shown arguing and hating one another, beating one another up, complaining about relatives and loved ones, and giving accounts of different hardships they've faced in their lives and all I can think now that I have drawn closer to God is, "If only they had God in their lives, things wouldn't seem so complicated." </SPAN></SPAN><BR><BR><SPAN class=postbody1><SPAN style="mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt; mso-ansi-font-size: 11.0pt">And I don't mean just believing in God, but truly having Him in their life to a point to where God is the one they go to first before, over and above anyone else. Many people who believe in God still choose the advice of friends, family, talk show hosts and therapists when God has provided us with not only His Word via the Holy Scriptures but also a direct link to our hearts in which to communicate with Him. HE truly is all we need if only we draw closer to Him. </SPAN></SPAN><BR><BR><SPAN class=postbody1><SPAN style="mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt; mso-ansi-font-size: 11.0pt">Deuteronomy 7:9 Know that Yahweh your God is God, the faithful God who keeps His gracious covenant loyalty for a thousand generations with those who love Him and keep His commands. </SPAN></SPAN><BR><BR><SPAN class=postbody1><SPAN style="mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt; mso-ansi-font-size: 11.0pt">Has someone wronged you?

    <content type="html"><![CDATA[<st1:city><st1:place><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Verdana;">By Regina</span></st1:place></st1:city><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Verdana;"><br style=""></span><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Verdana;">
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;" align="left"><br></p></span><span style="font-size: 10pt;">Who do you place your faith in; our Father in Heaven or fallible man? It should be Father and I&#146;ll tell you why. Since Christianity was borne through Christ&#146;s ministry during his time here on earth, man has not changed. We are all products of secondary sin, which is why our savior Christ Jesus laid down his perfect life for us; to save us from the eternal death sentence that awaited all of us had he not done so.<br><br>Every religious organization has a leader. A minister, elder, pastor, priest, rabbi, evangelist, prophet, grand pubah, whatever they want to call themselves; they lead and are considered Shepherds by Christ and Father. It didn&#146;t take long for Christ&#146;s message to get twisted and turned around and in this day and age it&#146;s even worse. Satan, the father of all lies has worked long and hard at deceiving and misleading people since even before Christ&#146;s death. It all started back in the Garden of Eden and he&#146;s had a very long time to study humans and understand how they think and work. That is how he&#146;s able to confuse, deter, mislead and ensnare so many people over such a long period of time and he doesn&#146;t discriminate. The Shepherds of this world are just as easily made victims of Satan&#146;s snare as the rest of us. If anything, it&#146;s the Shepherds who should be on guard even more as they are held to higher standards by Father and are in places of leadership; having more of a responsibility to Father and who are able to lead or mislead large groups of people at one time.<br><br>This is why our faith must always be placed in our Father in Heaven and NOT fallible man. When we read the Scriptures we must always look to Father and not man to discern them for us. Father speaks to us via His Holy Spirit and to our hearts, which are more than capable of discerning truth without the help of fallible man who is easily deceived by Satan and caught in his snare. Man can fail Father but Father does not fail man. <br><br><i>Psalm 56:4 In God whose word I praise, in God I trust, I will not fear. What can man do to me?</i><br><br><i>Psalm 56:3-5 in God I trust; I will not fear. What can man do to me?</i><br><br>If you haven&#146;t noticed yet, we are living in the Great Tribulation. And there are many, many false shepherds out there leading Christ&#146;s flock astray. It&#146;s not what man can do to you, but what Satan can do to man. Satan is putting in his last ditch effort to blind and deceive as many as he can because he&#146;s already lost the war with Father and he&#146;d rather take as many as he can down into the Pit with him than go it alone. There are more false shepherds and wolves in sheep&#146;s clothing around us today than ever before. Satan has made this world we live in, his kingdom &#150; but he will soon have to give it up when the hourglass runs out. That is why we must place all our faith and trust in Father and not fallible man. Man (and Satan) can do nothing to you if you guard your heart and your mind.<br><br><i>Psalm </i></span><st1:time minute="23" hour="16"><i><span style="font-size: 10pt;">4:23</span></i></st1:time><i><span style="font-size: 10pt;"> Above all else guard your heart, for it is the source of life.</span></i><span style="font-size: 10pt;"><br><br><i>Philippians 4:7 And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.</i><br><br>Place your faith in Father and not in fallible man. Not in man-made religions. Not in anyone but Father and Christ Jesus and let your heart be your guide. Let your heart discern truth via Father&#146;s Holy Spirit and do not rely on anything anyone tells you as truth until you&#146;ve prayed and meditated on it. We are living in a world full of deception. Do not become a victim of Satan&#146;s snare.<br style=""><br style=""></span><o:p></o:p>]]></content>

    <title><![CDATA[Walking The Narrow Path ]]></title>
    <link href="http://pathtoyahweh.webs.com/articlesforthought.htm?blogentryid=2167969"/>
    <content type="html"><![CDATA[By Johanna<BR><BR>The Narrow Path is the path to Father. It is called the narrow path for a reason. It isn&#146;t easy to stay on. There are always rocks, roots and other things on this narrow path. The rocks and roots are symbolic of the trails and tribulations we go through in our lives each and every day. With the Ministers in the Light of Life Ministry walking beside us when one of us trip and fall they are there to catch us right along with Father and Christ who want us to remain on the narrow path. <BR><BR>A bump in the road can be letting negative thoughts creep in and keeping them in instead of pushing them right out. We must push out ALL doubts from our hearts and minds. You can tell yourself over and over in your mind that you BELIEVE in Father but if your heart is saying something different you can veer off the narrow path. The narrow path will lead you to one place. That place is Christ Kingdom. In order to get there you must have a good heart condition and an acceptance of Christ as your Lord and Savior. <BR><BR>But from there, you will search for the LORD your God, and you will find [him] when you seek Him with all your heart and all your soul. &#126; Deuteronomy 4:29 <BR><BR>Father is really amazing. Just think about all that He does for us. Really think about it. He gave us life and He will give us our eternal lives if we stay on the narrow path to His Son&#146;s Kingdom. <BR><BR>For in Him we live and move and exist, as even some of your own poets have said, 'For we are also His offspring. &#126; Acts 17:28 <BR><BR>Every generous act and every perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of lights; with Him there is no variation or shadow cast by turning. &#126; James 1:17 <BR><BR>He really loves us. He knows everything that we do. He knows when we stumble on the narrow path and when we veer off that path. <BR><BR>LORD, You have searched me and known me. &#126; Psalm 139:1 <BR><BR>There are people out there that may try to turn your eyes away from Father. They may take you by the hand and lead you off of that narrow path. They may tell you lies about Father which in turn can cause doubts in your heart and mind. <BR><BR>41You're doing what your father does." "We weren't born of sexual immorality," they said. "We have one Father&#151;God." 42 Jesus said to them, "If God were your Father, you would love Me, because I came from God and I am here. For I didn't come on My own, but He sent Me. 43 Why don't you understand what I say? Because you cannot listen to My word. 44 You are of your father the Devil, and you want to carry out your father's desires. He was a murderer from the beginning and has not stood in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he tells a lie, he speaks from his own nature, because he is a liar and the father of liars. &#126; John 8:41-44 <BR><BR>Just remember that Father loves us as much as He loves His Son Christ Jesus. That even though we may stumble and fall on this narrow path that He is there to brush away the tears it may cause us. One day He will take away all the pain that we have felt in this evil world that we live in today. I have a question for you. Will you choose to walk the narrow path and become His child? <BR><BR>I am in them and You are in Me. May they be made completely one, so the world may know You have sent Me and have loved them as You have loved Me. &#126; John 17:23 <BR><BR>3 Then I heard a loud voice from the throne: Look! God's dwelling is with men, and He will live with them. They will be His people, and God Himself will be with them and be their God. 4 He will wipe away every tear from their eyes. Death will exist no longer; grief, crying, and pain will exist no longer, because the previous things have passed away. &#126; Revelation 21:3-4 <BR><BR>12 But to all who did receive Him, He gave them the right to be children of God, to those who believe in His name, 13 who were born, not of blood, or of the will of the flesh, or of the will of man, but of God. &#126; John 1:12-13 <BR><BR>Personally I choose to stay on the narrow path no matter how hard it may be for me. I want to be there for the joy and happiness that will never be a part of this world. I want to be able to look upon Christ the one that died for me. <BR><BR>I tell you, in the same way, there will be more joy in heaven over one sinner who repents than over 99 righteous people who don't need repentance.&#126; Luke 15:7 <BR>]]></content>

    <title><![CDATA[Complete Surrender ]]></title>
    <link href="http://pathtoyahweh.webs.com/articlesforthought.htm?blogentryid=2167964"/>
    <content type="html"><![CDATA[<BR>By: Regina <BR><BR>Recently I was listening to some Christian music and a song came on with lyrics (and I&#146;m paraphrasing here) that basically were asking our Father in Heaven to take complete and total control of their life. To turn it upside down and inside out in order to be a true servant of the Lord. And I couldn&#146;t help wondering, &#147;Okay, that&#146;s all fine and good to say something like that, but, are you truly ready for that? To completely surrender yourself and everything and everyone in your life to the Lord?&#148; And I don&#146;t mean ready in the sense of thinking it&#146;ll never happen to you, I mean ready in the sense that it can happen to you. Or better yet, that it WILL happen to you. It&#146;s easy to say, but is it so easy to do? Because, woe to those who speak but do not do. <BR><BR>My thoughts turn now to people like Abraham, who was ready to slaughter his beloved son because Father commanded it. And also to Moses, who parted from his beloved wife and sons, to perform Father&#146;s work of leading the Israelites through the wilderness. And last but not least, all of Christ&#146;s apostles who left their families, friends and loved ones, homes and belongings to preach Christ&#146;s message in foreign lands. Now I ask you, would you do these things? <BR><BR>Before you answer, think. Truly think. Think about the comfort, safety and familiarity of the home in which you live and of the people in your life and also of the security of the job at which you work. Think about the possessions you have. Think about things you may have collected that sit on shelves or in closets around your home and the mementos of days gone by. Also about the pets you may also have that you love dearly. Then think about leaving it all behind because Father asks it of you. Would you risk the possibility of hurting those you love dearly by leaving them to do Father&#146;s will? Do you love all of the material things more than you do Father? Would you truly leave it all behind to do Father&#146;s will? Or, do you love all the people and things that are of this dying world and that are not part of Father&#146;s overall plan, more? <BR><BR>Matthew 22:37-39 "He said to him, "Love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your mind. This is the greatest and most important commandment. The second is like it: Love your neighbor as yourself.&#148; <BR><BR>Something that I have learned recently is that my life is not my own. The human vessel I was given was created by, and belongs to, Father. My spirit was also created by Father and is guided by Him via my heart. My mind has been trained via His holy words in the Scriptures and they have filtered down into my heart where they have taken root. Therefore, in knowing all of this, I have completely submitted myself to Him; in loving Him above all else and allowing Him to guide my footsteps. When we seek Father&#146;s will, He speaks to our hearts and when we have His will first and foremost in our minds and our hearts, He takes care of us as His true children and member&#146;s of Christ&#146;s flock. <BR><BR>Proverbs 16:9 &#147;A man&#146;s heart plans his way, but the Lord determines his steps.&#148; <BR><BR>If you&#146;ve read this far and have determined in your mind and in your heart that yes, I would do whatever it took to do Father&#146;s will and completely surrender yourself to Him, then I would also like to add that there is nothing to fear. Our beloved Father in heaven loves those who love Him and will care for you with tenderness and compassion, providing for your needs in every way. So if you&#146;re truly ready, take the leap of faith and look forward to experiencing what no eye has seen and no ear has heard; secure in the knowledge that you truly are a beloved son or daughter of a Father who will never abandon you. <BR><BR>1 Corinthians 2:9 "But as it is written: What no eye has seen and no ear has heard, and what has never come into a man's heart, is what God has prepared for those who love Him." ]]></content>

    <content type="html"><![CDATA[<P class=MsoNormal style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; TEXT-ALIGN: center" align=center><?xml:namespace prefix = st1 ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:smarttags" /><st1:date Month="8" Day="15" Year="2007"></st1:date>&nbsp;</P>

<P class=MsoNormal style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt"><SPAN style="FONT-SIZE: 11pt">How does Faith work? As a child growing up I would have said to worry constantly and say that if God wants something to happen &#150; it will.<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes">&nbsp; </SPAN>Follow that with more worrying.<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes">&nbsp; </SPAN>This to me doesn&#146;t hold much comfort and doesn&#146;t show much faith or trust in God.<o:p></o:p></SPAN></P>
<P class=MsoNormal style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt"><SPAN style="FONT-SIZE: 11pt"><o:p>&nbsp;</o:p></SPAN></P>
<P class=MsoNormal style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt"><SPAN style="FONT-SIZE: 11pt">Upon joining the Light of Life Ministry, my faith increased beyond measure.<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes">&nbsp; </SPAN>I found that God is much more real and accessible than I could have ever imagined.<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes">&nbsp; </SPAN>I feel so much closer to Him than I thought was possible.<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes">&nbsp; </SPAN>Not only does He truly care and faithfully love every one of His children, He knows our concerns, needs, and desires before we even do.<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes">&nbsp; </SPAN>He already knows the true meaning of my subconscious thoughts I have yet to piece together.<o:p></o:p></SPAN></P>
<P class=MsoNormal style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt"><SPAN style="FONT-SIZE: 11pt"><o:p>&nbsp;</o:p></SPAN></P>
<P class=MsoNormal style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt"><SPAN style="FONT-SIZE: 11pt">Psalm 23 is one of my most favorite scriptures.<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes">&nbsp; </SPAN>To me it says that no matter what and no matter where, if we have that faith in Him, we are cared for so lovingly and completely.<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes">&nbsp; </SPAN>It also tells us of the great joy He bestows on us.<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes">&nbsp; </SPAN>Philippians 4 tells that if we lay our cares and worries at His feet, we will have the peace of God.<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes">&nbsp; </SPAN>And in Matthew 6 we are told flat out, not to worry about things because God does know our needs and lovingly supplies them for us when we have that faith and trust in Him.<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes">&nbsp; </SPAN>It points out that worrying never changes anything in a positive way.<o:p></o:p></SPAN></P>
<P class=MsoNormal style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt"><SPAN style="FONT-SIZE: 11pt"><o:p>&nbsp;</o:p></SPAN></P>
<P class=MsoNormal style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt"><SPAN style="FONT-SIZE: 11pt">I found that, through worry, I became more distant from Father with lack of faith.<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes">&nbsp; </SPAN>Then I interfered with His plans and missed the blessings.<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes">&nbsp; </SPAN>It also brought a pessimistic attitude towards every other aspect of daily life.<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes">&nbsp;&nbsp; </SPAN>Trying to control the things around me didn&#146;t get me anywhere but down.<o:p></o:p></SPAN></P>
<P class=MsoNormal style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt"><SPAN style="FONT-SIZE: 11pt"><o:p>&nbsp;</o:p></SPAN></P>
<P class=MsoNormal style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt"><SPAN style="FONT-SIZE: 11pt">Father is omniscient and knows us so much better than we know ourselves.<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes">&nbsp; </SPAN>Therefore He also knows what is best for us on a very personal level.<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes">&nbsp; </SPAN>Most importantly, He has the perfect plan to get us those blessings.<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes">&nbsp;&nbsp; </SPAN>I learned it&#146;s better to &#147;give it to God&#148; and wait on Him patiently - never taking it back.<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes">&nbsp; </SPAN>Father loves me so incredibly and wants me to experience His immense love, joy, and peace that only a faith-filled life can bring.<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes">&nbsp; </SPAN><o:p></o:p></SPAN></P>
<P class=MsoNormal style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt"><SPAN style="FONT-SIZE: 11pt"><o:p>&nbsp;</o:p></SPAN></P>
<P class=MsoNormal style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt"><SPAN style="FONT-SIZE: 11pt">The biggest reminder for me is that I don&#146;t have to know the things that are going to take place toward a solution.<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes">&nbsp; </SPAN>If God is taking care of it - that has to be all I need to know.<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes">&nbsp; </SPAN>Father always has a perfect unfailing plan for me and I prefer to leave the details to Him.<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes">&nbsp; </SPAN><o:p></o:p></SPAN></P>
<P class=MsoNormal style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt"><SPAN style="FONT-SIZE: 11pt"><o:p>&nbsp;</o:p></SPAN></P>
<P class=MsoNormal style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt"><SPAN style="FONT-SIZE: 11pt">Although it isn&#146;t always easy to hand a concern over completely and then wait patiently, it is always worth it.<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes">&nbsp; </SPAN><o:p></o:p></SPAN></P>
<P class=MsoNormal style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt"><SPAN style="FONT-SIZE: 11pt"><o:p>&nbsp;</o:p></SPAN></P>
<P class=MsoNormal style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt"><SPAN style="FONT-SIZE: 11pt">When at first I realized that worrying about things was a habit that needed breaking, I found that focusing on the positive of day and prayers to Father in thanksgiving for what he&#146;d done so far in my life and for that problem &#150; there was no room anymore for worrying because being at peace was so much more fun.<o:p></o:p></SPAN></P>
