KSHV is one of the two known human oncogenic gammaherpesvirus which induces oncogenesis in infected susceptible cells. In the HIV positive immunocompromised patients, pleural effusion lymphoma (PELs), Kaposi's sarcoma (KS) and Multicentric Castleman's Disease (MCD) are common. The associated human malignancy is a major contributor to increased mortality in developing countries in this population of HIV positive patients. This study will explore epigenetic mechanism by which KSHV is regulated in endothelial cells and KS infected tissue. We will be collaborating with investigators in Shanghai and Northwest China Xinjiang province where KS incidence is quite high. We will focus on three major aims to explore the hypothesis that gene regulation in KSHV infected KS tissue is controlled by specific epigenetic changes that occur on the KSHV genome in the infected human endothelial spindle cells. We expect that genomic modifications are endothelial cell specific, and would provide clues as to the distinct profiles of expression in the KS tissue and infected endothelial cells. We will determine the specific markers which represent the epigenetic landscape in KS tissue by chromatin immunoprecipitation using specific antibodies to acetylation and methylation marks on histones. We will also identify the overall gene expression profiles related to LANA, Rta and CSL/RBP-Jk expression and the regulatory mechanisms at the viral and cellular level. Conditional expression as well as RNAi strategies for modulation of expression of LANA, Rta and CSL/RBP-Jk will be used as well as genetic mutations in the viral genomes to determine the control mechanisms that are utilized to drive proliferation of the infected KS cells. The expression profiles will be determined by RNA-Seq and analyzed for unique genes that are regulated in the viral infected cells. These will then be validated using real-time PCR analysis of the specific mRNA transcripts, as well as immunohistochemistry and immunofluorescence analysis in KS tissue and infected endothelial cells. These studies will further our understanding of KSHV latency mechanisms and provide insights for therapeutic potential by targeting the pathways activated in the KS disease.
KSHV is a major human pathogen. It is associated with 3 major proliferative diseases in humans including pleural effusion lymphomas. In the proposed collaborative studies we will focus on the epigenetic regulation of the KSHV genome in KS tissue and endothelial infected cells. The results would provide unique and novel clues for targeted therapeutic development for treatment of KS disease.

Cllr Beverley Nielsen reflects on the economic situation in West Worcestershire
By Beverley Nielsen in https://centreforbrexitstudiesblog.wordpress.com/2020/05/29/our-green-and-pleasant-shires-are-a-true-manufacturing-heartland/
OUR GREEN AND PLEASANT SHIRES ARE A TRUE MANUFACTURING HEARTLAND 29th May 2020
Towards the end April I wrote about the 'rough beast' whose hour had come, or in other words Covid-19; a beast that has continued to make its devastating impact on our lives, communities and economy.
Another month on and the devastation continues with the UK reporting the highest coronavirus death rate ahead of the US, Italy, Spain and Belgium. In a report, 28th May, the FT states the UK registered 59,537 more deaths than usual (or excess deaths) since the week ending March 20, suggesting that the virus had directly or indirectly been responsible for the deaths of 891 people per million. At this stage of the pandemic, it's a higher rate of death than in any other country. According to the Chief Medical Officer, Chris Whitty, excess deaths are a 'key metric' and the best way to compare countries' performance in handling infectious diseases. Jonathan Ashworth, Labour Shadow Health Secretary, has stated that the UK was 'too slow into lockdown, off the pace on testing and PPE, and too slow to protect our care homes'.
A weary population watches in despair as political classes trade blows over Dominic Cummings' 270-mile trip to his parent's home in County Durham and whether this was a breach of lockdown restrictions, whilst, overwhelmingly, the public believes it's an open and shut case and he should go. Brexit, once the biggest threat to business, is now scarcely mentioned in the press. Firms that thought an overwhelming Conservative majority in the House of Commons would finally bring to an end months of stalemate and uncertainty never envisaged an even greater demon was lurking in the shadows.
The gloomy economic data is gathering pace with UK GDP falling 5.8% in March, a record fall, with declines registered in all sectors, apart from pharmaceuticals manufacture, soaps and cleaning products, with IT support also remaining positive.
Most will recall the warnings from the Office for Budget Responsibility (OBR) in mid-April that second quarter GDP could fall by as much as 35% with the possibility of unemployment levels returning to 2 million and some forecasts are suggesting even higher estimates. They highlighted the most vulnerable sectors with reductions in output projected for education at -90%, accommodation and food services - 85%, construction -70%, manufacturing -55%, wholesale retail and motor trades -50%, transport and storage - 35%.
Now the first quarter numbers are actually coming through. Quarter 1 production output fell by 2.1%. Manufacturing output has continued to fall with first quarter output of transport equipment manufacturing falling 9.9%, reflecting the 16.3% decline in motor vehicle manufacturing, following factory shutdowns in March. The Society of Motor Manufacturing and Traders, SMMT figures are even starker showing UK car manufacturing output falling 37.6% in March year on year, with an overall fall of 13.8% in car manufacturing in quarter one. With Jaguar Land Rover reportedly in negotiations with the department for Business Energy and Industrial Strategy (BEIS) over a support package estimated to be in the region of £1bn this is clearly a very challenging time for the West Midlands.
UK claimant count unemployment rose by 69.1% in April 2020 across all UK regions. Regions exposed to hospitality and tourism suffered the worst on these measures with the largest monthly increase in the South West, up by 97.9%, while the West Midlands had the smallest increase of 50.9%.
Unemployment 'hotspots' have however featured across the wider West Midlands. As a councillor in Malvern Hills Worcestershire, I was dismayed to see a shocking +90% increase in April job losses in the county, up 70% in Redditch, +89% in Wyre Forest, +99% in both Malvern Hills and Bromsgrove, and a frightening +126% increase in Wychavon. The numbers (from the Nomis series excluding farm-based agricultural employment) cannot be wholly explained by falls in tourism and hospitality. In fact they suggest that our green and pleasant shires around the West Midlands are strong manufacturing heartlands; that it would be incorrect to assume that manufacturing in our region is confined to the urban conurbation of the mayoral combined authority; that we have a far more mixed economy in the shires than we may often suspect.
For example, the rural idylls of Malvern Hills and Wychavon districts are overweight in manufacturing making up 14.3% and 18% of jobs respectively in 2018 as the latest data series available compared to an average 8.1% nationally.
In Malvern Hills where a total of 28,000 people were employed in 2018, see chart 1, manufacturing employed 4000 people with 'wholesale and retail trade, repair of motor vehicles and motorcycles' employing a further 4000 people. Just under a third of all employed in the area are in these two sectors. Malvern Hills is also overweight in education employment where 3,500 were employed with the sector representing 12.5% employment compared to 8.9% nationally. Whilst this district does employ a little more than average in 'accommodation and food services activities' at 8.9% compared to 7.6% nationally, accounting for 2,500 jobs - many of which will be sadly vulnerable at present - interestingly this represents the same number as those employed in professional scientific and technical activities, which should remain an important growth sector for this local economy given the continuing need for IT support, cyber and software services in the post-Covid world.
In Wychavon district almost half of the total of 50,000 jobs in the area recorded in 2018 were in manufacturing (9k), 'vehicle trades' (9k), transport storage (3k) and construction (3k) with Wychavon overweight in all these sectors compared to national averages, leaving it more vulnerable in light of the OBR forecasts.
The picture is not unique to Worcestershire districts. In Shropshire 27% of all employment is in manufacturing along with wholesale and retail trade, repair of motor vehicles and motorcycles, in Worcestershire and Warwickshire this figure rises to 30%, in Staffordshire it's 32% and in leafy Herefordshire the two sectors employ 33%, see county charts below. Employment in every one of these counties is overweight in manufacturing compared to the national average of 8.1%.
Whilst much is made of the manufacturing taking place in the West Midlands core the shires have been too often overlooked since the loss of the Regional Development Agency, Advantage West Midlands, (AWM) in 2012 as the economic development framework for the region became more fragmented and its voice weakened, once again. As we head into the final stages of the trade deal talks with Brussels we need to be very careful that we do not leave behind our manufacturing heartlands and with it the wider West Midlands with many jobs already hanging in the balance.
Economist David Smith suggested in the Sunday Times, 24th May, that the government's latest approach in these negotiations assumed the public wouldn't notice further damage inflicted by a chaotic Brexit in light of the huge damage wrought by Covid-19. 'Fat chance' he observes. Whilst the Britain and the EU remain miles apart on how much of a level playing field there should be after Brexit, the SNP's Pete Wishart, accused the government of "wilfully piling on a second hammer blow to an economy already shattered by Covid in its obsessive pursuit of its hard Brexit agenda". If ever there was a time for pragmatism and practical action this must be it, and as jobs drain away it will be cold comfort for those affected to learn that we have, at the very least, taken back the control required to make our own mistakes.

The previous article was about deep learning fundamentals. This article is about AI in transportation and fleet management. There are many opinions about how Artificial Intelligence (AI) is going to change the world with expectations about its capabilities for now and in the future. AI simply refers to intelligence displayed by machines in contrast to that displayed by humans. Although humans are intelligent, they cannot be programmed to exceed their current capabilities in the same way a machine can.

As bad as things look for the Philadelphia Eagles after losing their last three games, they still control their own destiny in terms of making the playoffs and their remaining schedule is easy. If the Eagles win their last four games they will win the NFC East and host a playoff game. The four-game stretch begins on Monday night on ESPN, as Philadelphia takes on the New York Giants. These teams will meet twice in the last four weeks, so that should be good news for the Eagles. Let's look at the game and NFL picks.
This NFL regular season game between the New York Giants and Philadelphia Eagles will be held at Lincoln Financial Field in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania at 8:15 p.m. ET on Monday, December 9, 2019. The game will be nationally televised on ESPN.
We'll have NFL odds at BookMaker.eu available for every game of the 2019 NFL season.
Odds Analysis
Bettors have been all over the Eagles in this game, as the line opened with Philadelphia an 8.5-point favorite and it is now up to Philadelphia -10. The total opened at 46.5 and is down a tick to 46.
Eli Manning to Start for New York
The Giants have an injury at quarterback, as Daniel Jones has an ankle injury, so New York is giving Eli Manning another start. The New York offense hasn't been any good no matter who is at quarterback. The difference in the two quarterbacks is that Manning simply can't move, so the offensive line has to give him time to throw if New York is to have success. The Philadelphia secondary is bad, so if Manning gets time to throw then the Giants could be competitive in this game. New York head coach Pat Shurmur expects Manning to play well. "He's been ready to play all year," Shurmur said to the media, "He'll be ready to go. I expect him to go out and have a winning performance. That's what I expect."
Eagles Continue to be Schizophrenic
In the first couple months of the seasons the offense played well, but the defense struggled, but in the last month the offense has struggled and the defense has played better. The offense was better against Miami, but it still wasn't good enough to get the job done. Carson Wentz does not look like a franchise quarterback and there are very few receivers on the team that are any good. The Eagles rely heavily on their tight ends and if defenses take away Ertz and Goedert the team struggles to score.
NFL Trends
The Giants are 7-0 ATS in their last 7 games on grass. The Giants are 9-2 ATS in their last 11 games as a road underdog. The Giants are 6-2-1 ATS vs. a team with a losing record.
The Eagles are 7-3 ATS in their last 10 Monday games. The Eagles are 4-9 ATS in their last 13 home games. The Eagles are 2-5 ATS in their last 7 vs. the NFC East.
Looking at the total, the Over is 7-1 in the Giants last 8 road games. The Over is 5-1 in the Giants last 6 games in December. The Over is 4-1 in the Giants last 5 vs. the NFC East. The Under is 4-0 in the Eagles last 4 home games. The Under is 10-4 in the Eagles last 14 games as a home favorite. The Under is 7-2 in the last 9 meetings in Philadelphia.
NFL Pick
Neither of these teams is any good, but I know I can't lay double-digits with this Philadelphia team. They have major problems on offense and last week the defense had trouble against a weak Miami team. I will take the points with the Giants on Monday night.

SUVA, Fiji (Fiji Times, June 28) - A Fiji landowning unit yesterday closed off the road leading to Telecom Fiji's main station in Vanua Levu as they demanded to know who endorsed the renewal of the land's lease in 2000.
[PIR editor's note: Vanua Levu, second largest in the Fiji group, lies to the northeast of Viti Levu, Fiji's main island.]
Members of mataqali Naudrau from Suweni village, Cakaudrove, who built a camp by the roadside at Delaikoro, have refused to remove the roadblock until all their grievances are met.
[PIR editor's note: A "mataqali" is a traditional Fijian landowning unit.]
A group of Telecom workers were turned away from the roadblock while making their way to the station at the top of the mountain. Mataqali [primary local division of Fijian society] spokesman Akei Kamo said the renewal of the Telecom lease in January 2000 was arranged without their consent.
"We have been approaching the company and the Native Lands Trust Board to ask them about the renewal of the lease or who gave the two parties the okay to do so, but they have chosen to ignore our visits," he said. "So we will not sit around and wait for them to open their doors because this is our land and we will not be bullied by some companies who earn millions of dollars and think they can carry their weight around as they enjoy."
Kamo said the landowners would not meet with NTLB and Telecom officials but only with the executives from headquarters. "This is not the first time we are putting a roadblock on this road. Every time we did in the past, officials in the north come up, we discuss certain issues and the matter is resolved," he said. But whatever we have discussed in the past has not been addressed and that is why we want to meet with the executives of the two companies now. They should not waste their time in sending up a junior team because we will not negotiate."
Kamo said although they had written to the NLTB not to renew any lease from January 1, 2000, this was not followed. "Who has the authority to renew the lease the NLTB or the landowners?" he questioned. He said the landowners also wanted an increase to the monthly rental paid by Telecom.
NLTB and Telecom did not respond to questions sent to them. Telecom spokeswoman Salote Uluinaceva, in an earlier query in March, said that on January 1, 2000, the company's lease on Delaikoro was renewed for another 99 years and lease payments had been made until June 30 this year.

East Anglian health services braced for cash shortage
PUBLISHED: 07:54 11 June 2009 | UPDATED: 10:04 06 July 2010
Health services in this region will have to get more efficient to deal with a cash shortage in future, health chiefs warned last night.
A report from the NHS Confederation, which represents most NHS organisations, said yesterday that the financial climate after 2011 would be "extremely challenging" the most difficult in the NHS's history.
Health services in this region will have to get more efficient to deal with a cash shortage in future, health chiefs warned last night.
A report from the NHS Confederation, which represents most NHS organisations, said yesterday that the financial climate after 2011 would be "extremely challenging" and the most difficult in the NHS's history. It said there would be "little or no" increases in funding, which, allowing for inflation, means cash would be reduced - by up to £15bn over five years.
But NHS managers locally are not admitting that there may be staff cuts or reductions in services, though they acknowledge there will be pressure to cut back on some areas, like non-essential surgery.
David Prior, chairman of the Norfolk and Norwich University Hospital, said the hospital needed to save money by treating people better, so they were ready to go home sooner, and by doing more day surgery rather than admitting patients overnight. He said work to reduce superbug infections in the hospital had cost money but made savings in the long term by reducing illness.
He said: "There is no doubt that from 2011 the financial pressure is going to be extremely difficult for the whole health system. I am hoping over the next 18 months we can make changes that mean we don't have to reduce staff. If we spend money intelligently, we can save money and improve quality of care."
He said there may be pressure to reduce NHS services such as obesity surgery and plastic surgery, but that such cutbacks might actually cost money in the long term. "It might be cheaper to do the obesity surgery than deal with the other problems related to it.
"Breast reduction is an area that some people say is not necessary. But it can have huge impacts on the individual in terms of back pain and all the rest. People might say breast reconstruction after cancer is just about looking good, but it is much more profound than that - it can have a huge psychological effect on the individual. It is very difficult to draw the line."
At Norfolk and Waveney Mental Health Trust, acting chief executive Paul Thain said: "The NHS, in the context of the economic position in which the country finds itself, will require a slowdown in NHS develop-ment and some changes in services. However, we have in place long-term five-year programmes to reduce costs. While we will likely need to increase the amount of money saved, we believe that the breadth of our services will not only remain but that we should also be able to meet the main requirements of the people of Norfolk and Waveney."
David Stonehouse, finance director of NHS Norfolk, which pays for health services in most of the county, has warned that finances from 2011 will be much more difficult, but says they are planning to make efficiency savings rather than cut back on services.

I have exactly the same problem. Yesterday I bought Division 2 in the Epic Game Store. Then I took the AC: Syndicate for free. Started linking two accounts, EGS and Uplay.
The AC: Syndicate was linked to the Uplay account without any problems. I try to transfer the Division 2 to the Uplay account and an PI_UBI_01 error is displayed.
Tonight, I created two technical support requests:
Ubisoift: 10929297
Epic Game Store: 27292876
No answer yet. A global problem (many error PI_UBI_01 messages started to appear), a solution may not be found soon.
Hello. I just purchased The Crew 2 from Epic Games and I cannot activate the game. When I click on The Crew 2 in the Epic Games launcher library it says Ubisoft Login Required. I press it and then it tries to connect to my account which is successful. After that I'm forwarded to the Epic Games launcher and I get the error "PI-UBI-01". I don't use a VPN and both my accounts have Romania set as Country. I already previously activated Watch Dogs 2 last year and that game worked just fine.
Same thing here, bought AC Odyssey but PI-UBI-01: 102008 shows up. Country setting in both Epic and Ubi accounts match. Got syndicate for free a couple days ago and I managed to activate it with no problem. Also bought Anno 1800 a couple months ago, no issue there. Sent a ticket (Conversation ID: #27314780) but no response yet.

SARASOTA, Fla. (WWSB) - For the second time Wednesday, a vehicle struck an overpass on the I-75, this time closing the southbound lanes.
Around 5pm, a 2006 Kenworth vehicle registered to AW Hughey Construction Service of Venice struck the Proctor Road overpass (mile marker 206) before the Clark Road Exit on I-75 South.
Troopers say the dump truck driven by 24-year-old A. Valenzuela Hernandez of Arcadia was towing an excavator, which struck the overpass. The excavator and overpass were damaged, as were three other vehicles. No drivers or passengers were injured.
This video shows crews conducting repairs on the bridge:
For the next four and a half hours, the roadway was completely closed and traffic was diverted onto Bee Ridge Road.
Around 9:30pm, one southbound lane was re-opened. It wasn't until 4:30am on Thursday that FDOT was able to re-open the roadway.
Crews had to work to remove loose concrete from the bridge, which was damaged in the accident, and assess its structure.
FDOT says the bridge will need additional repairs and crews will need to return to make permanent fixes in the coming nights.
Proctor Road, which was closed in both directions at the overpass, has also re-opened, though the westbound shoulder remained closed while repairs were completed.
Earlier Wednesday, I-75 North was closed just east of the River Road interchange after a vehicle struck the South Moon Drive overpass.
Bridge inspectors headed to the scene to assess the damage and found minor repairs will be needed. Crews will return at later date at night to make the necessary repairs.
FDOT reminds drivers to check their loads in order to avoid preventable closures.

Canon 6D Unboxing, Specs, and First ImpressionsBrendan van Son

So, I finally bit the bullet and went full frame buy buying the Canon 6D. As those who have been following my travel photography for a while already know, I'm not exactly wealthy. In fact, I really don't have much disposable income at all. Thus, well to many this might just be a new camera, to me the 6D is like finally making it. I fell like for years I've been fighting with the limitations of my camera gear a bit, but now, I can't make any of those same excuses.
Anyways, this is an unboxing of the Canon 6D. I also take you through some of the Canon 6D specs and give you my first impressions on what it feels like to hold, to shoot, and how it operates.
In this unboxing video I also take you through and compare the camera body to my old Canon 60D, and well one might be a cropped sensor and the other full frame, since I'm jumping from one to the other a comparison makes a bit of sense.
Anyways, I hope you enjoyed the 6D unboxing, I'll have some sample images from out in the field within a couple weeks. Stay tuned and subscribed!

Post on Cost regarding current listed reduction cost for metal/stone As a PvE player, these are still completely unnecessary, and it really doesn't change the outlook greatly on that this game just isn't worth the grind fest, for those that are more building focused. We build mostly for looks on PvE. If you HAVE to add something in, 10 metal & 5 paste would be reasonable, though it still makes 0 sense because stone structures don't use these materials. As it stands, 15 paste and 15 metal is still a steep cost, especially the paste component of it. If you are persistent with the metal aspect - increase the amount of metal mined from basic rocks, and add way more metal nodes, as well as onto most islands that have mountains. Not a good enough change, material cost should be removed entirely, or made to 10 metal / 5 paste at most. Do you guys (the developers) enjoy spending hours and hours sailing to get some resources to build something, on top of your daily work schedules?
Another +1 to a customer who will be uninstalling this game and never supporting anything Wildcard related, if the change isn't reverted by end of the weekend. A one week heads up would at least have helped people who had plans, or were in the middle of something, and while the change wouldn't have been ideal still, at least not screwed over all the people who are now sitting there with something half finished, that'll likely never be finished. As a person that enjoys building, I have no desire to sail for hours on end to craft a few things. I don't want to build something ugly, or not fully utilizing the various textured pieces available. Unfortunately there is no single player mode either, and unofficials are dodgy, as you could be working on something, and suddenly they stop subscribing. Without building, there is virtually nothing to do - sail endless water playing dodgeball with ships of the damned (can do this in Sea of Thieves, and at least that is more visually pleasing and more enjoyable), explore the few variations on islands (look at the map, most shapes are reused constantly, just at a different angle). So yes, good job screwing over all those who enjoy these games strongly for the building aspect
The silence and ignorance for 12+ hours now, on what is the most popular topic and biggest disapproved of change, is amazing. 3 years learning from ARK, and the lack of a single sentence of communication, shows that they will never learn, be it 3 years or 10 years. Hot topics (or what is well beyond a hot topic at this point) needs to be addressed with urgency @Jatheish, you can't ignore paying/paid customers like that as a lead community manager. Choosing to be silent will not fix the matter, and the increased cost of stone stuff is a huge discouragement to even want to try and play, especially for PvE server players, where these costs make 0 sense, and the resources specifically chosen, aren't logical in the building type. I enjoy the building side of things, was 50% through making something large, and have absolutely 0 desire to play the game anymore, as it feels like 80 hours of work are wasted, and finishing now would take 3 months rather than 1 week. Players do not enjoy spending 2-4 hours to go get the resources to build 20-50 walls/foundations, etc. If we wanted to grind that badly, there are tons of "grindy" games that are 100x more fun like WoW, or any proper MMO, that has a lot more content and variation. Edit: And sure we could just build with wood and thatch, which take 1/50th the time to farm, but some of us actually enjoy making our buildings look nice, so for many of us, especially in the PvE world, stone is 100% for looks to begin with.

Thread of Faith … Christian Support Discussion
Book Club Page 49
The Armenian book entitled "The Key of Truth"[29], mentioned above
as having been written between the seventh and ninth centuries, de-
scribes the beliefs and practices of those called Paulicians, of Thonrak,
at that time; and although there were doubtless many differences in the
numerous scattered churches, yet this authentic account given by one of
themselves, is applicable to most of them.
The author is unknown, but writes with power and eloquence as well
as with deep feeling and earnestness. He writes to give to the new born
children of the Universal and Apostolic Church of our Lord Jesus Christ
the holy milk whereby they may be nourished in the faith. Our Lord, he
says, asks first for repentance and faith and then gives baptism, so we
must follow Him and not do after the deceitful arguments of others, who
baptise the unbelieving, the reasonless, and the unrepentant.
When a child is born the elders of the church should give counsel
to the parents that they may train the child in godliness and faith. This
should be accompanied by prayer, the reading of the Scriptures, and giv-
ing the child a name. When anyone is baptised it should be at his or her
earnest request. Baptism should be in rivers, or other water in the open
air. The one to be baptised should, on his knees in the midst of the wa-
ter, confess his faith before the congregation present, with great love and
tears. The one who baptises should be of blameless character. Prayer and
the reading of Scripture should accompany the act. Again, the ordaining
of an elder requires great care lest anyone unworthy be chosen. It must
be ascertained whether he has perfect wisdom, love, which is chief of all,
prudence, gentleness, humility justice, courage, sobriety, eloquence. In
laying hands on him, which is to be done with prayer and the reading
of suitable Scriptures, he is to be asked, "Art thou then able to drink the
cup which I am about to drink, or to be baptised with the baptism with
which I am about to be baptised?" The answer required of him shows the
dangers and responsibilities that such men accepted, which none would
take on themselves unless there were an earnest love and a will to suffer
to the uttermost in the following of Christ and caring for His flock.
It seems that we have long ago lost this view of the early Church. Can the flock be "reformed"? Well when we have that picnic and the baptism in the river, we will see if we have returned to the concepts of the early ones.
Two part post: 1st. the warning of the last days
Jude 1 Amplified Bible (AMP)
1 Jude, a servant of Jesus Christ (the Messiah), and brother of James, [writes this letter] to those who are called (chosen), dearly loved by God the Father and separated (set apart) and kept for Jesus Christ:
2 May mercy, [soul] peace, and love be multiplied to you.
3 Beloved, my whole concern was to write to you in regard to our common salvation. [But] I found it necessary and was impelled to write you and urgently appeal to and exhort [you] to contend for the faith which was once for all [a]handed down to the saints [the faith which is that sum of Christian belief which was delivered [b]verbally to the holy people of God].
4 For certain men have crept in stealthily [[c]gaining entrance secretly by a side door]. Their doom was predicted long ago, ungodly (impious, profane) persons who pervert the grace (the spiritual blessing and favor) of our God into lawlessness and wantonness and immorality, and disown and deny our sole Master and Lord, Jesus Christ (the Messiah, the Anointed One).
5 Now I want to remind you, though you were fully informed once for all, that though the Lord [at one time] delivered a people out of the land of Egypt, He subsequently destroyed those [of them] who did not believe [who refused to adhere to, trust in, and rely upon Him].
6 And angels who did not keep (care for, guard, and hold to) their own first place of power but abandoned their proper dwelling place—these He has reserved in custody in eternal chains (bonds) under the thick gloom of utter darkness until the judgment and doom of the great day.
7 [The wicked are sentenced to suffer] just as Sodom and Gomorrah and the adjacent towns—which likewise gave themselves over to impurity and indulged in unnatural vice and sensual perversity—are laid out [in plain sight] as an exhibit of perpetual punishment [to warn] of everlasting fire.
8 Nevertheless in like manner, these dreamers also corrupt the body, scorn and reject authority and government, and revile and libel and scoff at [heavenly] glories (the glorious ones).
9 But when [even] the archangel Michael, contending with the devil, judicially argued (disputed) about the body of Moses, he dared not [presume to] bring an abusive condemnation against him, but [simply] said, The Lord rebuke you!
10 But these men revile (scoff and sneer at) anything they do not happen to be acquainted with and do not understand; and whatever they do understand physically [that which they know by mere instinct], like irrational beasts—by these they corrupt themselves and are destroyed (perish).
11 Woe to them! For they have run riotously in the way of Cain, and have abandoned themselves for the sake of gain [it offers them, following] the error of Balaam, and have perished in rebellion [like that] of Korah!
12 These are hidden reefs (elements of danger) in your love feasts, where they boldly feast sumptuously [carousing together in your midst], without scruples providing for themselves [alone]. They are clouds without water, swept along by the winds; trees, without fruit at the late autumn gathering time—twice (doubly) dead, [lifeless and] plucked up by the roots;
13 Wild waves of the sea, flinging up the foam of their own shame and disgrace; wandering stars, for whom the gloom of eternal darkness has been reserved forever.
14 It was of these people, moreover, that Enoch in the seventh [generation] from Adam prophesied when he said, Behold, the Lord comes with His myriads of holy ones (ten thousands of His saints)
15 To execute judgment upon all and to convict all the impious (unholy ones) of all their ungodly deeds which they have committed [in such an] ungodly [way], and of all the severe (abusive, jarring) things which ungodly sinners have spoken against Him.
16 These are inveterate murmurers (grumblers) who complain [of their lot in life], going after their own desires [controlled by their passions]; their talk is boastful and arrogant, [and they claim to] admire men's persons and pay people flattering compliments to gain advantage.
17 But you must remember, beloved, the predictions which were made by the apostles (the special messengers) of our Lord Jesus Christ (the Messiah, the Anointed One).
18 They told you beforehand, In the last days (in the end time) there will be scoffers [who seek to gratify their own unholy desires], following after their own ungodly passions.
19 It is these who are [agitators] setting up distinctions and causing divisions—merely sensual [creatures, carnal, worldly-minded people], devoid of the [Holy] Spirit and destitute of any higher spiritual life.
20 But you, beloved, build yourselves up [founded] on your most holy faith [[d]make progress, rise like an edifice higher and higher], praying in the Holy Spirit;
21 Guard and keep yourselves in the love of God; expect and patiently wait for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ (the Messiah)—[which will bring you] unto life eternal.
22 And refute [so as to] convict some who dispute with you, and on some have mercy who waver and doubt.
23 [Strive to] save others, snatching [them] out of [the] fire; on others take pity [but] with fear, loathing even the garment spotted by the flesh and polluted by their sensuality.
24 Now to Him Who is able to keep you without stumbling or slipping or falling, and to present [you] unblemished (blameless and faultless) before the presence of His glory in triumphant joy and exultation [with unspeakable, ecstatic delight]—
25 To the one only God, our Savior through Jesus Christ our Lord, be glory (splendor), majesty, might and dominion, and power and authority, before all time and now and forever (unto all the ages of eternity). Amen (so be it).
Part 2>> Reformation
Well this is a big subject. The experts all have their views of the reformation and many are scholars, I'm not one of them. I have deep concerns and convictions over the past, present and future of the Church. I have my views and understand that I am in the small minority of the believers but not with the early Church and the scriptures. My intention herein is not to divide, argue or change everyone's mind but to state my long held view of the mess we have as we head into the end times tribulation for the entire world.
What is a "reformer"? Why do we need to be reformed? The early Church did not need to be reformed, they were formed. The Lord gave Paul the understanding of the working of the Church, it is written. There has been from the beginning, those who have followed the path once delivered to the Saints but most have suffered persecution at the hands of the "non-reformed" as it is today (yes today).
Jude said much in the way of a warning for the end times Church and we cannot do any less of that warning. He said "to contend for the faith which was once for all handed down to the Saints". Yes that means to go back and re-read "that which was written" and to come out of the foolishness of todays teaching/preaching. He said "certain men have crept in stealthily, gaining entrance secretly, who PERVERT! The book club is studying these historic events and the pages are filled to the brim but the practices are still here on Sunday mornings across the nations but not in His Kingdom. He said "That angels who did not keep their first place of power but abandoned their proper dwelling place"...... Well, we have also abandoned our "first place' the place that was given for the Church to dwell and have taken on the position that the enemy has given as a replacement. He said "In like manner, these dreamers also corrupt the body". Well that is the state of things as we sit here on Aug. the 4th.
It may be time for us to openly, bluntly, scripturally, speak what we must do to come back from our current mess and take back our original dwelling place. Will the picnic table be able to listen to a view?
"About the time of the end, a body of men will be raised up who will turn their attention to the Prophecies, and insist upon their literal interpretation, in the midst of much clamor and opposition".
Sir Isaac Newton
Book Club - Chapter 3
* * * * *
Greater events, but also connected with the question of images, arose
from small beginnings in Arabia. In 571 Mohammed was born in Mecca,
and at his death in 632 the religion of Islam, of which he was the founder
and prophet, had spread over the greater part of Arabia. Islam, or "sub-
mission to the will of God", had as its creed: "There is no God but God
and Mohammed is His Prophet". It utterly repudiated images or pictures
of any kind. Its book, the Koran, contains many confused references to
persons and events spoken of in the Bible. Abraham as the Friend of
God, Moses the Law of God, Jesus the Spirit of God, are all venerated,
but are excelled by Mohammed the Prophet of God.
This religion was mercilessly spread by the sword, and such was
the resistless energy of the new enthusiasm that in less than a hundred
years from the death of Mohammed, the dominion and religion of his
followers stretched from India to Spain. The choice of conversion to
Mohammedanism or death constantly reinforced the armies of Islam,
but untold numbers died rather than deny Christ. In North Africa es-
pecially, where the churches were so numerous and had such traditions
and records of the faith unto death of those who had suffered there dur-
ing the persecution by the Pagan Roman Empire, a great proportion of
the population was blotted out. Mohammedanism was a judgement on
idolatry, whether Pagan or Christian.
* *
The last line should be an eye opener but is not. "Mohammedanism was a judgment on idolatry, whether Pagan or Christian." The RCC have had their wars with Islam, and to this day, Muslims are blowing up the idols of many cult/pagan religions. Is there any surprise that the modern S.H.'s that have set up idols, from the leaders to the statues around the building, to those collected by the leaders and brought home from their trips overseas , have destroyed their stand against Satan? Consider this "judgment" as you stand before all of them.
Story; I was invited as a guest speaker to a home of a so-called Christian leader in Manila, many years ago. I walked into this home and it was filled with guests who wanted to hear. The entire home was filled with all the demonic idols of the entire region. I thought "I should keep my big mouth shut, say a 15 minute something, and get out of Dodge." That sounded really good. But then, that small, quiet inner voice, "are you a coward"? So I started off the meeting by saying something like: HAVE YOU EVER HEARD OF IDOLATRY? Well, you know the rest of the story and I was not invited back.
Almost all tell me it is "art" and I tell them , "no it is demonic idols". He that hath ears, let him hear. amen
Not Flattery
Dear NW View,
I was blessed with another sleepless night last night. It was my privilege to re-examine this thread. My method was this: Read pg.1, then skip to the first to the 'last page' available. Read pg.5, then skip to the next 'last page' available. Read pg.9, then skip ahead again. I think I was trying to flesh out the 'history' of the relationships that have blossomed (for me) upon this thread. Sometimes, you see, I fear I have truly slipped into madness, for I walk the house believing I have actually come to love men I have never met.
I first stumbled onto a post of yours (using my method) on pg.20. Foggyroad showed up a little later, as did I Run Bartertown who was, I might add, viciously attacked upon his first appearance here. My heart was broken for IRB, more than a little. Further on, he was treated much kinder, and I rejoiced that that incident was not a stumbling block to him, and that it didn't prevent him from reaching heaven's Gate. And I rejoiced to think that, when Christ 'hath thy name graven on his Hand' even the gates of hell cannot thwart a man's coming to Him. In truth, the man himself cannot prevent it. A-men!
From pg.20 on, I read much, and heard much, that encouraged and instructed my soul. Today, I must confess, that one of two things has happened: Either the madness has fed upon itself and strengthened..or..My love for those who have helped me here has deepened. I prefer to believe the latter.
When love is in it's growing, respect and admiration flourish alongside, and I think it no sin when these things desire, perhaps even demand, expression. Therefore, NW View, I say these things to thee openly:
In Christ, I bless the day I met you. When I first came to 'Thread of Faith', I thought you might be an obnoxious man, for no one ever seemed to join you here, and it seemed like yours might be a discordant voice, or one that was repugnant to them who desired to travel the same Thread. I have, since then, been brought low by your example of faithfulness, industriousness, and love for Christ's church.
Much of what you have faithfully expounded here, on these pages, has been allowed to settle onto my ears and, then, into my heart. And, as I have thought about your preaching on 'our citizenship being in heaven', many of my entanglements with this world have fallen away, and seem to be dying. I no longer care about the price of silver and gold; I am no longer obsessed with presidents and politics; conspiracy theories no longer weigh me down, or cause me fear, or interest me much. Even sin, it appears, has received a death-blow,and sits silently at arm's-length. And, although I do still appear pretty tawdry to the eyes of men, I sense a great improvement in my soul. I sense it is Christ himself who speaketh to me, through you.
What you bring to us here is meat, and not milk, and it is difficult for a 'soft' stomach to keep solid food down. Be that as it may, we must have the solid food, for the babe does not have arms long enough, or strong enough, to lay hold of his inheritance, let alone the wisdom to wrestle the thing to the ground, and to make it his own. You have helped me greatly in this regard. Your voice, to me, is as that of one crying in the wilderness, and I will always call you, "Friend".
As Rutherford would say, 'I bid you to help me to praise.'
"Lord Jesus, our Everlasting Father...May I, may we, never lose again, the hard-fought ground we have gained. May every step bring us nearer to Thee. We are love-sick to see Thy face...We long to be with Thee where Thou art. We thank Thee for the gift of faith, and for our companions who have met us on the Way. Thou art the Potter; we are the clay. We bless your Holy Name." A-men.

@ NWD and brethren
Well that post makes me teary eyed and speechless. I often feel like a man who was able to jump off of a sinking ship out in the Pacific, swim for a week, and crawl out on a fruitful island. The place is wonderful, food and water, shelter but not even a footprint in the sand for company. One day, I found an old bottle and wrote a message to place within before throwing it into the sea. "Hello, my name is Jim. I was saved from the burning ship before it sank. I have found a land of promise filled with milk and honey. I have placed a tall flag on the highest peak in the hope you will see it and also swim here to be saved and taken care of forever. I do not need to be rescued, do not send a ship, I am here to stay."
Then one day, I saw two men floating on an old log, coming to shore. I said "Hello, my friends, did you find my bottle"? They said that they were travelers named IRB and NWD and have come to this shore to live forever.
Thank You Lord Jesus, some have joined me in this Land of the Kingdom.
I am amazed by your posts. Not only are you extremely talented with words and expressing your thoughts but I appreciate the depth of your understanding.
I have been silent and have not commented on the posts and it seems you have explained my reason for this silence. I have been reading NW View and his posts have given me much to think about. When you said, "What you bring to us here is meat, and not milk, and it is difficult for a 'soft' stomach to keep solid food down." You expressed my thoughts exactly. There is so much to think about. For example, "the subject of our citizenship being in heaven"-
"And, as I have thought about your preaching on 'our citizenship being in heaven', many of my entanglements with this world have fallen away, and seem to be dying. I no longer care about the price of silver and gold; I am no longer obsessed with presidents and politics; conspiracy theories no longer weigh me down, or cause me fear, or interest me much. Even sin, it appears, has received a death-blow,and sits silently at arm's-length."
I think that there is so much more that could be said about this and what it means to have our citizenship in heaven.
NW View I would be very interested in what you have to say exactly about our citizenship.
Thanks for the great posts. It is almost time to leave for work but here is a starting place:
This instruction from Paul is mostly overlooked by the Church. The entire world is caught up in 1st. Adam and that is all that they can "see". However, for those who have received Christ within, our citizenship has been transferred, moved, changed, altered.
It is like my previous post on swimming to a new Kingdom island. We had a campfire along the beach and were sitting at the picnic table. We were talking one day and SWM said "well, I do not even think about the president nor wonder what congress is voting for. I have finally seen that here, our citizenship has changed. We have been placed here by the Lord Himself, allowed to and made to sit with Him. The view from here is quire different from my past. I do not worry about the problems of the nations of the world."
NWD said, "I also have been set free. Here on our island, there are no laws, no artificial governments, no majority rule, zero voting, and there is not one person carrying a sign to protest anything. I am not concerned who will win an election or what party will rule. If someone would ask me who will win the elections in Peru this year, I would say that I do not know and I am not a citizen of Peru nor anywhere else, just here in God's Kingdom".
Foggyroad jumped into the discussion. "It gives me a load of grief to hear over the airwaves from believers who have not found this island, as to their involvement in the affairs of the world. We have been told to stay out of these things and to stay in our positions that the Lord has provided for us, this island where Life is abundant.'
NWD said "when I finally received the revelation from the Lord via His Spirit, my life changed forever. I was finally set free and he who the Son sets free is free indeed. There is not one ounce of freedom for any person who is still living in the tree of the knowledge of good and evil but the Tree of Life is in our midst. My view of the problems facing mankind has moved from TBN,CBS,NBC and even the net to facing the foot of the Cross every day and being thankful for this Great salvation that I have received."
IRB said "I will no longer allow anyone who rows a boat past our shores to trick me into throwing stones nor will they get me to travel with them back into their lands. Could someone pass the ribs and potato salad?" amen
Joy in Heaven, NWD
What a beautiful story NWD, the Lord's Holy Spirit has touched your heart, Praise the Most High.
The Din of Angels Joyous Song fills the heavenly Sanctuary, what Love is our Glorious Father, he sits and smiles at the Son of God, as Jesus strides toward Him with a little lamb, once lost but now found.
Blessings to you Brother Dale, now share your precious gift, and grow in the Love of Our Lord and Saviour, Jesus Christ.
My heart weeps with extreme Joy, at your loving words.
Praise the Lord, as the Angels sing.
Thank You, and Bless You Brother Dale.
Your Friend Foggy.
Simple Truth
Simple Wisdom
So, NW VIEW forgive me I have a few questions. While putting this new citizenship into everyday living I come against questions from friends and even family members. Here are a few:
1. As Christians aren't we supposed to do good and elect Godly people into office.
2. We have to live in this world, isn't it our job to make it a better place?
3. If you stay out of politics aren't you helping evil to stay in power?
More detail please of being "In the World but not of the world"?
Thank you
@ SWM Part 1
Well SWM, this is one of the topics that will make one feel he has been placed on a board over a watery swimming pool, waiting for the many stones to be thrown to dunk me. However, I have been wet before:
2 Timothy 2 Amplified Bible (AMP)
2 So you, my son, be strong (strengthened inwardly) in the grace (spiritual blessing) that is [to be found only] in Christ Jesus.
2 And the [instructions] which you have heard from me along with many witnesses, transmit and entrust [as a deposit] to reliable and faithful men who will be competent and qualified to teach others also.
3 Take [with me] your share of the hardships and suffering [which you are called to endure] as a good (first-class) soldier of Christ Jesus.
4 No soldier when in service gets entangled in the enterprises of [civilian] life; his aim is to satisfy and please the one who enlisted him.
5 And if anyone enters competitive games, he is not crowned unless he competes lawfully (fairly, according to the rules laid down).
6 [It is] the hard-working farmer [who labors to produce] who must be the first partaker of the fruits.
7 Think over these things I am saying [understand them and grasp their application], for the Lord will grant you full insight and understanding in everything.
8 Constantly keep in mind Jesus Christ (the Messiah) [as] risen from the dead, [as the prophesied King] descended from David, according to the good news (the Gospel) that I preach.
9 For that [Gospel] I am suffering affliction and even wearing chains like a criminal. But the Word of God is not chained or imprisoned!
10 Therefore I [am ready to] persevere and stand my ground with patience and endure everything for the sake of the elect [God's chosen], so that they too may obtain [the] salvation which is in Christ Jesus, with [the reward of] eternal glory.
11 The saying is sure and worthy of confidence: If we have died with Him, we shall also live with Him.
12 If we endure, we shall also reign with Him. If we deny and disown and reject Him, He will also deny and disown and reject us.
13 If we are faithless [do not believe and are untrue to Him], He remains true (faithful to His Word and His righteous character), for He cannot deny Himself.
14 Remind [the people] of these facts and [solemnly] charge them in the presence of the Lord to avoid petty controversy over words, which does no good but upsets and undermines the faith of the hearers.
15 Study and be eager and do your utmost to present yourself to God approved (tested by trial), a workman who has no cause to be ashamed, correctly analyzing and accurately dividing [rightly handling and skillfully teaching] the Word of Truth.
16 But avoid all empty (vain, useless, idle) talk, for it will lead people into more and more ungodliness.
So SWM, you have three questions and most will not appreciate my answers but the Lord is O.K.
(1). As Christians aren't we suppose to do good and elect Godly people into office? >>>> Well, how has that worked out for us? If I were looking from another planet and seeing the results of billions of prayers and billions of dollars being spent, I would say the Christians have failed at the ballot boxes. The winners are from the banksters and Hollywood. What happened to their prayers, did they just drop on the floor?
Story; I remember going to an auction several years ago and seeing an older man that I had ministered with in Europe in the late '70's. He was excited to see me and said "Brother Jim, I have found the answer". I thought he must have rededicated his life to Christ. Nope! He said he was on a committee to elect a new Washington State governor and she was a Christian. He told me they could turn this state around and she was going to win. OH SUCH FOOLISHNESS!
Do we really believe that we can force the population to surrender to the Christian view that we force on them through the voting booth? The problem is that we have failed to be that witness that the Lord has called us to be in a world under judgment. The world sees a divided S.H. system, thousands of them, sin in the camp, every S.H. bible college teaching something different on every scripture and the t.v. preachers with the ratted hair preaching a false gospel of prosperity while they fly their jets to their private runways.
There will be people who read these posts who say that "speaking in tongues is of the devil" and others who will say, that it is "the only sign of the baptism of the Holy Spirit". This is the witness of the confused systems to the lost world.
Do we vote and are we registered to vote? Many S.H.'s say it is our civic duty. They even tell you who to vote for, the lesser of two evils some say. A monkey can cast a ballot but it takes a cross center believer to be a witness to the lost.
We see in the O.T. that pharaoh was raised up by our Lord for the purpose of the Lord. It was not because he was a good pharaoh but because the Lord wanted to deliver the children out of the land of sin/Egypt. Do we understand that the Lord brought armies against Israel in the past because of the sin in the camp and the cost was 70 years in slavery? Do we understand that the current White House has been given to the nation as a punishment for the great sins of the land? Do we understand that the current president represents a people of a representative government? HE IS PERFECT FOR THE JOB AHEAD! Will the prayers of the S.H.'s raise up a Billy Graham type for our next president? NO! We will be given what the nation wants and deserves. I am O.K. with the selection because from where I view things on the island, nothing will change for America until "If My people, who are called by My Name, will humble themselves and pray...................". When will that happen with a divided church? When will the saved ones repent of joining the divided systems? When will the called out ones begin to understand that they are a "Kingdom of Priests unto God" and never have been a layman?
Well, this have been a long post to answer the 1st question and I will answer the next two later.
I know your question was directed to NW VIEW but I would also like to chime in, if you don't mind.
I agree with much of what NW said, wise council as always.
IMO, Jesus Christ did not come to change what we do, he came to change what we are, because what we are, effects what we do, individually and collectively as a nation and/or in any society.
IMO, we are called to be salt and light to the world, yes, no question about it, do good and make difference where you can, but what the modern church has done is embrace and just become another 'political group' with a 'political agenda'. An agenda of cultural morality; and thereby it tries to create an 'environment' where somehow this external supposed 'righteousness' will somehow be pushed into people from the outside.
Our ministry and duty as Christians is one of reconciliation…….
A Reconciliation at the heart level…….
"Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new.
And all things are of God, who hath reconciled us to himself by Jesus Christ, and hath given to us the ministry of reconciliation;
To wit, that God was in Christ, reconciling the world unto himself, not imputing their trespasses unto them; and hath committed unto us the word of reconciliation.
Now then we are ambassadors for Christ, as though God did beseech you by us: we pray you in Christ's stead, be ye reconciled to God.
For he hath made him to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in him." II Cor 5:17-21.
When we as believers lose focus of this primary objective we drift all over the place, embracing the world and even its 'tactics', at times, rather than preaching the Gospel of God which alone has the power to transform lives. Rom1:16
The post moderns are big into this as well as many of the Churches. If the majority of American's got delivered, saved and brought into the Kingdom, this country would do a 180 degree turn in a matter of weeks. Sadly scripture indicates that will not happen collectively.
In the mean time, we help one person at a time escape this world and its corrupt systems that are going down hard very soon.
In the mean time, do as you are led, but don't lose focus that we are calling people out of this world and it's systems, into the Kingdom of God which is a Heavenly Kingdom.
"We who preach the Gospel must not think ourselves as public relations agents sent to establish good will between Christ and the world. We must not imagine ourselves commissioned to make Christ acceptable to big business, the press, the world of sports or modern education. We are not diplomats but prophets, and our message is not one of compromise but an ultimatum."
A.W. Tozer, - From man; the dwelling place of God.
SWM Part 2
@. We have to live in this world, isn't it our job to make it a better place?
Well that sounds like a great calling, has it worked? If the True Church had not been here from the beginning, we would have been destroyed long ago. What would the world have been without the feeding of the hungry and clothing of the naked? What would the outcome have been without the Azusa Street revival for America or the Welch revival with Evan Roberts? What if George Fox has just joined the local S..H. in his town in England and just submitted to the local pastor? What if Watchman Nee had never preached until he died in prison? How many could we write about and quote, the pages would be filled and I would grow older and never finish this post.
If we were to make this a better world for our children then why are we to receive a "new world" as the old one will pass away?
The true Church has learned to give "a cup of water water in Jesus's name" and have an unshakable reward. The true Church has seen the needs of the many as the Lord brings them into their lives. The true Church has taken their tithes and offerings and given them "directly" without a tax deduction, without any 501 3c submission and have the inner heart ache of the poor.
It is written "Let your light shine before men, that they may see your good deeds and glorify your father in heaven." Matthew 5:16. What kind of a light do we have.. Jesus said the He was the Light of the world and He said that we are the Light of the world. The only way we can be that Light is "IF" we have Him within. Unfortunately many just say I gave at the office or I write a check every Sunday, we are building a new five million dollar S.H.
When I leave my home, I drive past three S.H.'s in a row and they are a witness to the unsaved of a divided movement. If the Spirit of God does not bring about a full national revival and soon, then we are FINISHED. Judgment has overtaken us and the nations of the world will suffer greatly because we have departed from the Faith that was once delivered to us.
What must we do even today?
I was working at the duplex we were building today. My son said we needed a few boards so I jumped into my pickup and headed over to the lumber yard. I stepped out of my truck to walk into the building but a truck with a rack stopped in front of me and the older man said to me. Hi, I have a question about this lumber yard. I thought I knew the man as I knew someone like him that I had not seen for years. I said what are you doing here. He said, I do not know you, do you think you recognize me? I said well, I first thought that you were L.C. but now I see that you are not. He said, is L.C. a good man or a bad man? (Interesting question from a stranger). I said he is a good person. He quickly said well I am an XXXXXXX. (could not say that or type it but was very descriptive of himself in a negative way). I thought, this is a set up from the Lord.
I placed my hand on his arm and said "Only the Lord Jesus can change your life". He was shocked, looked at me and said "I Know". He was speechless and I was blessed. Who knows why he was there for the first time? Well SWM, this is how the Church can make it a better place, let your Light shine.
I was at a meeting long ago as a speaker. I taught on Christian giving and we all know that is taught often in the systems. I asked to take an offering, in cash only, and for the entire amount to be placed in a basket in front of the people. You know what the people were thinking>>>>>>>> This Jim is going to pocket all the cash, never report it to the IRS and line his pockets, that crook! Well, then I asked all of the adults to come forward and take a small portion of the cash out of the basket until every last cent was gone. They did and was in shock. I then explained that the funds had been given unto the Lord and it is His money and they are responsible to use it wisely. I told them to pray as to where it should go and to report back in tomorrows meeting. The next day's testimonies were powerful and their lives were changed as they became those Lights of the Lord. That is how we will make it a better place. Jim
SWM Number 3
#3. If you stay out of politics aren't you helping evil to stay in power? Well, again, how has being involved at the voting booth worked out?
I watch the lathering up of the Christian community every time the votes are counted. It is an awful site to watch. This brings up a continual heart ache for me. Somehow, someway, the Christians believe they can violate 1 Cor. 5:12 just because it is voting time in America. I hear the continual slander/gossip of this awful man/woman who is running for office. A continual judging of these who are outside the Church. "For what have I to do with judging outsiders? Do you not judge those who are within the Church?" Oh what a mess we have. We have failed to approach sin in the Church as detailed in the N.T.. We have the breaking of bread with those who are lost in a sea of sin, we never remove them from fellowship for any sinful deeds (we do not want to lose those fiat tithes, and do not want a smaller membership than the S.H. on the corner) and we have turned on the unsaved world, into public judgment as to their evils. Somehow, it is truly amazing, we think we can say anything about anyone outside the Church and not be liable. How can this be? We have failed in our callings within the Church (Church discipline) and have judged those outside the Church instead, amazing for sure. (Time to ponder and repent).
Really SWM, somehow we think the method that Our Lord has given to the Church is the voting booth. We will just force the unbelievers into submission and present our Christians views for the world. Is that the Way, is that the Method, or have we been deceived? The political arena will NEVER replace the Light that has been given to the Church as it must shine out to those who walk in complete darkness! "Got a Light. yes" . amen
P.S. : I think I heard Foggy and NWD talking as they walked around the Island of Promise far away from the wonderful picnic table. NWD said " Foggy, I have walked this great lovely island and there are several things that just are not here. There was not a single place to cast votes, no jails or prisons, no theaters from Hollywood, there was not one S.H. but many places where others could meet like homes or just under a shade tree. I stopped by a Christian book store and it had very few things on the shelves. The bibles, and many books on those who gave all for their walk with Christ, along the narrow road that leads to life. I was surprised that all those self help books by the mega preachers were not allowed here but I now understand. Lets travel back to the table and seek even more of Him."
I would like to take a crack at your question about a Christian man voting. i would ask the forum if i am in error in my thinking to correct me please
God gave Moses Ten Commandments for man to follow. In particular the second applies to you voting in elections
Exodus 20 Amplified Bible (AMP)
4 You shall not make yourself any graven image [to worship it] or any likeness of anything that is in the heavens above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth;
God also says in James 2:7-10 7 Do not they blaspheme that worthy name by which ye are called? 8 If ye fulfil the royal law according to the scripture, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself, ye do well: 9 but if ye have respect to persons, ye commit sin, and are convinced of the law as transgressors. 10 For whosoever shall keep the whole law, and yet offend in one point, he is guilty of all.
To vote you have to declare that you are a citizen of your country, to be a citizen you MUST be a person. What is a person? First let us look at the word person. It can be broken down to two parts. Per is a Latin preposition, denoting through, near, as, close. Son is the male issue of a parent, a native or inhabitant of a country; as the sons of Canada or the sons of United States.
So to be a Person you are acting as a son of Canada/United States. Read James 2 again and see what God has to say about persons
Now to be a Son you must have a Father and conversely to be a Father you must have a Son.
SWM is our Father not God? Are we not made in his likeness? How can a man have two Fathers? If he is my Father, then i am his son and if i am his son then he must be my Father. To vote i must be a son of Canada…how can i have two Fathers.
Perhaps when i vote i am following a graven image?
If you are just a simple man, you CAN NOT vote in your election and be true to God.
Perhaps another day we can have a discussion on how we are deceived into believing we are who we are not..:-)
I would also like to thank Marcus who has helped me greatly in understanding this

I would jump in this with you and hope others will also join in. My line of thinking is very simple. We who have Christ within, have received a new citizenship, our old one is gone forever. We have also changed our original parents (mom and dad) and have received our Father God forever (born again, there is a reason for this term). Now my first Adam parents have become my brother and sister in Christ (if they have Him within) . It is written "I am ascending to my Father and your Father, and My God and your God". John 20:17.
The major problem in this area is the lack of any revelation by the Church that their citizenship has changed. We do not even vote in the Kingdom, He is the Head of the Body and He is Lord over all and we sit in that position. Christians do not operate in a arena of democracy but receive Life and direction via the Head Who is Lord over all.
Thanks Silver 66

In the 1930s, MGM's roster of actresses included Greta Garbo, Joan Crawford, and Myrna Loy, but the undisputed queen of old Hollywood's most glamorous studio was Montreal-born Norma Shearer, who delighted her loyal (mostly female) fans in a series of modern melodramas and lavish costume dramas that made her a box-office sensation for much of the decade. Shearer is best-known today for her role as a spurned wife in the all-female comedy The Women (1939), but she deserves to be remembered for her entire body of work, which includes several films that serve as touchstones for Hollywood's treatment of the lives of women.
Norma Shearer was born Aug. 11, 1902 (or thereabouts*), to construction business owner Andrew Shearer and his wife, Edith. Norma grew up in posh surroundings with her brother, Douglas (later a pioneering MGM sound technician) and sister, Athole. However, the Shearer family's comfortable life fell apart in 1918 when Andrew lost his construction business and the family ended up living in dingy boarding house in a bad part of town. At this point, Edith decided to pack up her family (minus Andrew, who suffered from mental health problems) and take a chance on Norma's budding show-business aspirations.
In 1920, Norma, Edith, and Athole arrived in New York City with hope in their hearts and a letter of introduction to Broadway impresario Florenz Ziegfeld in Edith's pocket. However, Norma's petite frame** didn't fit into the mold of the statuesque showgirls favored by Ziegfield and other theatrical producers, and soon the three Shearers were living in a squalid tenement that was much worse than anything they had experienced in Montreal. However, Norma did find work in the nascent movie industry, where her plucky spirit and ability to work long hours in difficult conditions soon earned her small parts in films.
In 1923, movie mogul Louis B. Mayer saw Norma in a small part and invited her to come to Hollywood for a screen test. After a few false starts, including a disastrous screen test and clashes with directors, Norma was called into Mayer's office for a tough-love session with her fellow countryman*** (Mayer's modus operandi with talent usually involved a mixture of yelling and crying). Mayer's pep talk was so inspiring that Norma immediately went on the set of a film called Pleasure Mad and aced her big emotional scene. "I took that scene lock, stock, and barrel, fur, fins and feathers," she later remembered.

I'll leave you with this lovely picture of Norma on the ski slopes. Be sure to check out the other articles in the blogathon. There's a few more write-ups on Norma and her films.
**Norma had a slight case of strabismus in her right eye, which she worked for years to correct through visits to medical experts and muscle-strengthening exercises.
***Mayer was born in what is today the Ukraine, but he grew up in New Brunswick.
† Thalberg had congenital heart problems throughout his life. He died of pneumonia on Sept. 14, 1936, at age 37.
†† Shearer's NYT obituary states that Thalberg left Shearer a $4.5 million fortune at his death.
