Festive and healthy -- a great side dish for the holidays or anytime.Submitted by: GETSTARTED21
You can lighten this recipe up by using non-fat parm but I love it this way and it still is a reasonable calorie count. The quinoa makes this pilaf extra nutritional. One of my family's favorite sides. Could also be a good main meal by adding cubed chicken breast or just leave vegetarian (use vegetable stock instead of chicken). Sometimes I add a different variety of veggies like green beans.Submitted by: CLINARD

Fried rice using quinoa instead of rice, edamame and egg for protein, and lots of frozen veggies to keep things easy.Submitted by: MARYDAZ
Introductory quinoa recipe. It's not exactly a side item, but it's not vegetarian either. And it's poultry solely by virtue of the chicken broth... so here it sits, in the side items section.Submitted by: AMANDAJCD

The quinoa adds a nutty flavor to this simple soup made from packaged, fresh and frozen ingredients.***UPDATE*** When I was packaging up my leftovers, I realized that this only makes 11 servings, not 13. I have changed the info so it is more accurate now.Submitted by: FDOODLES
My family loves pasta salad for picnics. Since I haven't been eating pasta as part of my diet, I would just make it and do without. Well, for Labor Day, I realized I didn't have pasta and decided to use some quinoa I had in the pantry. This is tasty, nutty and HEALTHY!! Your family will most likely NOT miss their pasta. Add green and red pepper, chopped onion, small diced broccolli and cauliflower, cucumber and any garden fresh veggie to make even better!Submitted by: JOEKNEE

Delicous Salad - Great for PicnicsSubmitted by: JLROLLINS
Great high protein alternative to oatmeal. Found this recipe in Martha Stewart magazine. My new favorite breakfast. Takes a while to cook, but you don't have to stand over it. I make four servings without the berries, store three and add the berries to one to eat. Reheat in microwave. You can add more of milk, sugar, cinnamon or blueberries when you serve it -- but remember, that adds more calories and you don't really need it. Submitted by: LYNTORAL
This is a great salad for a summer potluck or cookout. Proteins from the beans and quinoa also make this a bright summer lunch. Submitted by: LJWW42

The Tabouli recipe is a healthful and delicious Mediterranean food recipe prepared with quinoa, mint, garlic, tomatoes, green onions, olive oil and lemon. An excellent picnic food idea, it tastes great chilled or at room temperature. The original recipe used 2c cracked wheat soaked for 30 min in hot water then wrung out and added into the salad. I added the quinoa instead.Submitted by: NGSGODDESS

CAMILLA, GA -- The Westwood Wildcats marched through the first round of the GISA-AA playoffs like they'd been there before.
The two-time GISA-A State Champs moved up in classification this year, but not much has changed on the scoreboard.
Westwood shut out Briarwood Academy 35-0 in the first round of the GISA playoffs. The Wildcats will travel to Edmund Burke for the state quarterfinals Friday.

England Saxons back-row forward Guest, handed the No. 8 shirt with Nick Easter on World Cup duty, was carried off on a stretcher a minute before half-time after being hurt in a tackle with former Quins team-mate Chris Hala'ufia.
The problem appeared serious at the time and was later confirmed to be a bad one, following on from the knee injury he picked up last season.
"He's broken both bones in his lower arm pretty badly so we will have to wait for the surgeon to have a look at it. The first opinion is it will need to be plated," said Conor O'Shea, the Harlequins director of rugby.
"He's come back after a long period out and I feel for Guesty. It's a shocking thing to happen."
Guest was replaced by 21-year-old Chris York and O'Shea hopes he can now take his opportunity, saying: "He's a young guy with a lot of athletic talent.
"He's been knocking on the door for a chance and this will be his chance to show what he can do."
The Quins boss was pleased with his side's opening performance as former All Blacks fly-half Nick Evans contributed 18 points, landing five penalties and converting tries from prop James Johnston and Ugo Monye, the England winger who missed the cut when Martin Johnson trimmed his World Cup squad to the final 30.
O'Shea added: "Nick is exceptional and I thought we got control in a number of phases of the match but the two tries we conceded were awful. There's plenty to work on but overall I was happy."
Toby Booth, the London Irish head coach, insisted he could take a lot of positives from the performance of his young side.
"We've spoken a lot about the youngsters and their need to aim up and on the whole they aimed up very well. We were very pleased with that," he said.
"We worked incredibly hard and the mistakes we made were brought about through inexperience more than anything else.
"The test for this team in this initial period is how quickly it can grow up. Overall the effort and endeavour was fantastic.
"People know we play a certain way and that was evident. We were probably guilty of playing too much in our own half and bringing pressure on ourselves."
Booth added that he withdrew two-try winger Topsy Ojo as a precaution in the second half.

Maple Syrup, the Vermont Way
Drizzling your flapjacks with bona fide maple syrup tapped from northern hardwood forests provides a mouthwatering breakfast—and a boon to birds.
They call it "Maple Moon"—that magical time each year when sap oozes from maple trees in the Northeast through eastern Canada and as far west as Minnesota. Nowhere in this country does that sweet stream spilling over our pancakes and filling the nooks and crannies of our waffles flow more steadily and surely than Vermont, which produced 1.4 million gallons of syrup last year—almost half the nation's supply.
Against the snowy backdrop of a postcard-perfect countryside, smoke swirls from chimneys atop tiny wooden shacks. Inside, Vermonters are stoking wood fires to boil maple sap, transforming it to an amber liquid so sublime it borders on intoxicating.
In these parts, "sugar making" is more than a hobby or an earnest way to build a living; it's an art and it's a way to connect people to a place. And that is precisely the point of the "Sugar on Snow" festival for outdoorsy gastronomes unfolding on the hill of Green Mountain Audubon Center's 255-acre property in Huntington. The message: If you choose real maple syrup (not corn syrup) made from sap collected in healthy northern hardwood forests like this one, you're not only indulging in a culinary tradition, you're protecting the birds that live and breed in these trees.
"Sugar making is a land use that keeps the forest intact, as opposed to putting a house or a parking lot on it," says Jim Shallow, Audubon Vermont's conservation and policy director. "These forests play multiple roles—for sugar making and for wildlife—and it's all part of what makes Vermont Vermont."
I soon meet one of the forest's emissaries: Kristen Sharpless, an Audubon Vermont conservation biologist, who is teaching a crowd of rosy-cheeked kids in parkas and snow boots how to identify a sugar maple. Sharpless, 34 years old and exuberant, wears a red tasseled hat and a nubby wool sweater over a flannel shirt. Strung between two trees above her are 40 empty plastic gallon milk jugs to represent how much sap it takes to make just one gallon of syrup.
She takes a tape measure out of her pocket and helps the children wrap it around one maple's sturdy trunk. "Fifty-three inches," she declares. "Any tree that is at least 31 inches [in circumference] is okay to tap."
The day's weather conditions have created the perfect environment for sap to flow. Last night, as the thermometer sunk below freezing, the tree drew sap from its roots. When the mercury climbed to just above 40 degrees this afternoon, pressure grew in the tree's trunk and branches. Tapping a hole into the tree is like "letting the air out of a balloon," says Sharpless.
The kids feel around the tree's gnarly, lichen-covered trunk, inspecting each crack to find any scars from where it might have been tapped before. "Sometimes holes are made by something other than humans," Sharpless says, pointing to a notch in the wood. "This one was made by a yellow-bellied sapsucker."
Sapsuckers are among the dozens of bird species that forage and nest in the Atlantic northern forest of Vermont, Maine, New Hampshire, and New York, then spend their winters in the tropics. For some of these species, as much as 90 percent of their global populations breed in the northern forest. That's why preserving their habitat through sustainable land uses like sugar making and wildlife-friendly forestry is so important. More than 250 private landowners are participating in Audubon Vermont's Forest Bird Initiative. Audubon provides a free assessment of the property's habitat quality for a suite of 40 breeding songbirds, followed by recommendations for improving forest management.
Sharpless counts a couple of inches away from the sapsucker hole, tilts an old-fashioned bit and brace into the tree, then cranks the brace until it sinks about an inch below the bark. The golden sapwood curls around the bit like creamed butter, and a small stream of clear sap starts trickling from the wound. Into the hole she plugs a metal "spile," or spout, that has a fin on the top to hang a bucket and a little fin on the bottom for funneling sap. She then taps the spile with a hammer, listening for a change in sound: Tink, tink, tink, tink, thunk.
The roots of sugar making stretch far back in American history. Folklore says the Iroquois first stumbled on this wonder when a chief threw his tomahawk into a tree one spring night and left it there when he went off to hunt in the morning. As the weather warmed, sap began to drip from the tomahawk's scar, collecting in a container that had been left at the tree's base. Tribe members soon discovered the water's slightly sweet taste.
One theory about how they took that sugar water and transformed it into syrup is called the "hot-rock" method. At a small campfire along the trail loop, Audubon Vermont teacher-naturalist Mike Simpson is running a demonstration. He shows how the Native Americans might have heated softball-sized rocks on the fire. Then he lifts the smoldering orbs with the most primitive of tongs—deer antlers—and dumps them in a water-filled vessel made from a hollowed-out tree trunk. Steam swells into the air, its scent evoking marshmallows toasted on an open fire. As the water boils, the liquid evaporates, eventually leaving only sugar. Had Simpson stopped the boiling earlier, the result would have been maple syrup, albeit something a little less refined than the finished syrup Shirley Johnson is serving up over ice in the center's main building.

Oh man, I've never liked writing intros. It's always been my biggest hurdle when breaking into a new community. There's so much pressure to be witty and funny that I never really know where to start. I mean, if I fail here -- if I can't make a good first impression to woo you guys -- I might as well just pack up and move on. So, lets do this right, right? Just keep it basic: Hi, my name is Mark. I'm from Green Bay, WI. I'm new to San Diego and I'm new to the site. Cool beans, yo. Woo-ed yet? *sigh of relief* Thanks for getting to know me! See you around the site. |
lolol, just kidding! There's no way I could leave you (and your peaked interest) hanging like that. So, for your entertainment, I give you: me. But, to spare you the life story that no one really asked for, I'm just gonna give you the nitty gritty fun facts, presented top 10 style:
Wow. Got your fill of "Mark intro" yet? I know I did. lol Got a comment or question to ask? Dislike my comment about disliking cats? Let me know! I'd love to hear from you. |
We're gonna have an issue with the cat thing .. But great intro. There was suspense and there was drama, plus .. I didn't have to wait 4 months to hear the end. Bravo! Welcome to the community. p.s. I take it you're not a Packers fan then? I thought it was more or less a privilege, not a choice, to be a Packers fan if you're from Green Bay. |
HI MARK I'm and Xbox console gamer too! as well as PC and PS3 tho (I don't like ps3 either but there was this girl...) From your into I have gathered that you are NOT the Mark McDonald I worked with last summer analyzing power systems, and wind turbines though huh? Just a warning though, I now have high expectations of Mark McDonalds... Anyway you gonna be on Halo 4 or are you not into that kind of jumpy shooty nonsense like I am? |
There are 70 people in the United States with the name Kirk Wallace. Depressing. There is only one www.KirkWallace.com though bitches! *don't make fun of my website, it's a work in progress. the new website will have cat pictures* |
Actually I might as well have you take a look at my new site and tell me what i should do with it |
Welcome Mark. That cat thing isn't necessarily a deal breaker, I'll just let it slide since you like Assassin's Creed. I am currently in a Communications, Media and Film program with June 2013 being my graduation month! CAN'T WAIT!? Did you like your program?! @Kirk - Despite there being 70 people with the name Kirk Wallace, you will be the only one that gives the name its awesomeness. Just sayin'. Nice new site, I love the cat header xD Definitely should go along with it in the future. |
Even though I love cats, as long as you love some form of affectionate animal it's all good man. Dogs are amazing, seriously. They make their owners lives better. My Black Lab in NJ is 108 lbs. and totally afraid of cats, and balloons! LOL I got similar game preferences. I own PS3 but its only for the occasional fighting game because the one thing ps3 has on xbox was make a controller that has a d-pad on separate buttons rather than one shitty axis that makes quarter-circle moves annoyingly hard. But yah Halo 4? Jumpy shooty nonsense as lucig3n would put it is the bomb. The Office is fantastic right now. I look forward to it every week. I honestly enjoyed every season but holy crap did they make this season like drastically and immediately better. Clearly we all have more things in common than Jim does with Plop. Kirk I was going to ask about the Packers fan thing too lol. Because we may have had a problem with Reina and I both being Vikings fans =O ! |
lucig3n, no, I'm not the "analyzes power systems/wind turbines" Mark McDonald that you know, and obviously admire; I'm just the "plays video games" Mark McDonald. But lucky for you, I also happen to be the best kind of MM, so consider your expectations exceeded. For the sports fans -- I am absolutely a Packers fan by default. Football and golf (oddly enough) are the only two sports that I really don't mind watching, so long as I have some invested interest in one of the teams or players: e.g. Packers or Badgers -- On Wisconsin! The problem is, I never actually actively seek them out unless I'm really desperate for something to do. btw, to Michael and Reina, the Vikings "fans": no hard feelings, we all make mistakes. Racquel, I am a HUGE Assassin's Creed fan! Super stoked for AC3, even though I'm gonna miss good ol' Ezio. Also, gotta give a shout out to the AC multiplayer. I had huge doubts going into it, but what they accomplished for online gameplay for that style game just blew me away. I absolutely love it. Since you asked about my major, yes, I really really liked my program a lot! I actually started college as pre-med and was hating life pretty bad until I found Communication Arts. I have no doubt that I made the right choice for myself. And finally, yes, I really love Halo. This may surprise y'all, but my favorite Halo game to date was actually ODST. They took a different approach to narrative development/story for the spinoff and they really knocked it out of the park, IMO. Another surprise? I think Bungie passing the series to 343 is the best thing that could have happened to the franchise. I love Bungie for what they created, but at the same time, I think they were really holding the series back by sticking too close to tradition and ignoring competition. 343 seems to have realized that and are making a game that pushes the Halo envelope while still sticking to many of the basics that have been there from the start. Wow, short story made long, yes, I'll be playing Halo 4 when it comes out. lol |
You couldn't have juust left it at no hard feelings could you? You just hadddd to say "we all make mistakes"... this will be a fun relationship XD I'll say more about ODST in the other post but I respect liking the game I just don't play through story modes in games much so have no comparison except from what I hear and through multiplayer changes,which obviously ODST didn't have TOO much. Feel free to rip on my lack of playing through one-player modes. I know halo is amazing, in fact just recently played through Reach finally and replaying combat evolved anniversary for fun. Trying to get into the big name story games. For example, I LOVE assasins creed, but haven't played since the first and never beat it because every time I turned it on I had way to much just using it's sandbox world to kill people. I am such a simple gamer, give me a fun way to kill things and I guess I don't complain. Btw Golf is awesome. I alwasy root for the Irish guys <_< lol |

Endless Forms Most Beautiful, Part 1
How could we make progress on questions involving the evolution of form without a scientific understanding of how form is generated in the first place? [By the 1970s] population genetics had succeeded in establishing the principle that evolution is due to changes in genes, but this was a principle without an example. No gene that affected the form and evolution of any animal had been characterized. New insights in evolution would require breakthroughs in embryology.
Series: Evolution Basics
Written by BioLogos Fellow of Biology Dennis Venema, this series of posts is intended as a basic introduction to the science of evolution for non-specialists.
Motivated Belief: John Polkinghorne on the Resurrection, Part 3
The real problem of belief in miracle is properly a theological issue, not a scientific one, since claims of unique historical occurrences lie outside science's competence to adjudicate. All it can do is reinforce the commonsense recognition that something like a resurrection does not usually happen. The real challenge to belief in miracle lies elsewhere.
Series: Biological Evolution: What Makes it Good Science?
Is the contemporary theory of evolution an example of good science? Biologist Michael Buratovich explore this question in a well-researched two part essay.
Does Resurrection Contradict Science?
So what then does Resurrection mean? For Benedict it represents a new dimension of reality breaking through into human experience. It is not a violation of the old; it is the manifestation of something new.
Where are the Transitional Fossils?
A common argument leveled against the theory of evolution is that scientists have not been able to produce transitional fossils that show the change of one species into another. In this podcast, we address a common misconception about what transitional fossils actually are.
Science and the Bible: Assessing the Evangelical Encounter with Evolution
Having now completed our study of the five main views about "Science and the Bible" held by conservative Protestants, I conclude with a final column, assessing the whole situation as I see it today.
Creator of the Stars at Night
The God who created the cosmos is the God who came to us as a child in Bethlehem.
Looking at the Collapsing Universe in the Bible
The language of a collapsing universe is related to the end of the old covenant and the coming of the new covenant as God's "new world order."
Series: Science and the Bible: Intelligent Design
In this series, Ted Davis identifies the history, core tenets and assumptions about the Intelligent Design view.
Series: Surprised by Jack: C.S. Lewis on Mere Christianity, the Bible, and Evolutionary Science
In this five-part series, David Williams responds to the book The Magician's Twin: C.S. Lewis on Science, Scientism, and Society by John West and the Discovery Institute, showing that C.S. Lewis was a very complicated thinker whose views are hard to line up exactly with any camp in the current debates over the compatibility of Christian faith and evolutionary science.
Surveying George Murphy's Theology of the Cross
If God himself is willing to die, particularly in such a gruesome way, then perhaps we should at least consider the possibility of God allowing the death of other creatures, too. But would this really be compatible with what we know of God through Scripture?
Series: Behe, Lenski and the "Edge" of Evolution
In this series, we reexamine the claim made by Intelligent Design proponent Michael Behe to have found a limit to "Darwinian" evolution in light of recent results from the laboratory of Richard Lenski.
Oxygen and Co-Creation
In the mid-seventeenth century, John Mayow conducted a series of experiments in which he showed that burning candles in bell jars consumed one-fifth of the enclosed air before extinguishing. Remarkably, mice placed in bell jars did exactly the same thing...
Willing to be Wrong
The debate is often not about evidence, but about making sure that others do not transgress our interpretive boundaries and insist that we're wrong. We've bitten from the tree of knowledge and we love its taste.
Jesus the Artist
Speaking in parables is indeed similar to an artist's craft. They create impressions, whole new worlds of meaning intended to turn old worlds on their heads.
"Come and See": A Christ-centered Invitation for Science
Classical Christian orthodoxy as expressed in the Creeds begins at the beginning: nature owes its existence to and is sustained by Jesus Christ. One implication is that the best way of finding out about nature is to look at nature.
Series: Decoding ENCODE
The BioLogos Foundation explains to the findings of the Encyclopedia of DNA Elements (ENCODE) project and responds to the claims that its discoveries challenge the theory of evolution, especially regarding so-called "junk DNA".
Freedom and Grace in Tennessee
Towards the end of the last school year, the Tennessee legislature passed the Teacher Protection Academic Freedom Act, a law that became more popularly known as the "Monkey Bill." I was doing research in a Tennessee high school biology classroom the morning that I learned that the bill had passed.
Death and Rebirth: The Role of Extinction in Evolution
When they imagine evolution, many Christians picture novelty: new species arising over time, or speciation events. But as the most recent Southern Baptist Voices exchange makes clear, many Christians also focus on the role of death in evolution—something that can be a stumbling block.

Expressing concerns about the developments in the euro area, Bank of England Governor Mervyn King on Tuesday left the door open for an interest rate cut to boost the struggling U.K. economy amid a recession.
"I am particularly concerned because for two years now we have seen the situation in the euro area get worse, the problems have been pushed down the road," he told the Treasury Select Committee on Tuesday.
King's vote for more easing reflected concern about the worsening position in Asia and other emerging markets. "My colleagues in the U.S. are more concerned than they were at the beginning of the year about what is happening in the American economy," he added.
At the June meeting, King along with policymakers David Miles and Adam Posen had called for an increase of GBP 50 billion, while Paul Fisher preferred to boost the stimulus by GBP 25 billion.
King did not rule out the possibility of an interest rate cut. The interest rate has been at the current 0.50 percent level since March 2009.
But policymakers are concerned about the impact of such reduction on smaller building societies, the central bank chief said. Further, he said there is no liquidity trap in the U.K.
Monetary Policy Committee member Miles said that quantitative easing will stimulate the economy more than a rate cut. There is a question mark over whether interest rate reduction would do any good, he said.
Another MPC member Ben Broadbent said, "A good part of the drag on UK activity relates to the problems of the euro area, and it is much less clear that these are abating."
Broadbent refrained from voting for additional stimulus in June as inflation is easing at a slower than expected pace.
"I have been reassured that measures of medium-term inflation expectations in financial markets have, of late, fallen back slightly," he said.
"It is also notable that the price of crude oil has fallen back materially since its peak in early March."

What We're Praying/Talking About
September 24, 2009
Look Up Fellowship's Statement Of Faith
My hope is that there will be no illusions about where I stand on certain subjects when it comes to my cherished faith; not just the basic tenets of our shared faith, but those topics of eschatology that are regularly discussed and studied here.
Anyway, it will be replacing the "Prophecy Basics" tab at the top of the Main Page. After all, many of the people who stop by the site are already professing Christians who have been exposed to end times Bible prophecy.
Plus, given my unique set of circumstances over the last month or so I get the sense that my focus now (in addition to reporting on the prophecy related news) should be to apply what I've learned by encouraging and reminding fellow Brothers and Sisters in Christ not to make the same mistakes I did. How will I attempt to do that? By reiterating how important it is to continue to work towards a holy and obedient lifestyle as we continue to mature as Christians who have graduated to "solid food" because that's what sanctification is all about, right?
That being said, I'm also adding 2 new Categories -- "Bible Study" and "Spiritual Growth" -- too. Hopefully, it's obvious why I've decided to go that route. Simply put, I was elevating my love for studying signs (my love for prophecy) over my love for the Lord and His Word. Worse, I was spending more time in the world trying to interpret current events through the prism of prophecy then I was in the Word trying to gain a deeper understanding of my Savior and applying that knowledge to my own life in order to grow.
Rest assured that we'll still go rabbit hunting, but for every prophecy related/"signs I'm seeing" article, I intend to write a Bible Study/Spiritual Growth column to help keep us (mainly me) grounded and anchored to what's most important.
In the Long Overdue Department, many of you will be thrilled to learn that I've finally added a Search Bar to the website, which can be found along the left hand side of the page. This should help you access various topics easily and quickly. Over the next few days you'll probably notice a few other subtle but important changes like more blogs added to the "Must Read Websites" section. Anyway, I just wanted to hit the reset button before getting back into the full swing of things around here.
The sole basis of my beliefs is the Holy Bible, God's infallible written Word, the 66 books of the Old and New Testaments. I believe that it was uniquely, verbally, and fully inspired by the Holy Spirit and that it was written without error (inerrant) in the original manuscripts. It is the supreme and final authority in all matters on which it speaks.
I accept those areas of doctrinal teaching on which, historically, there has been general agreement among all true Christians. Because of the specialized nature of this ministry (if it's ok to even call it that), I desire to allow for freedom of conviction on other doctrinal matters, provided that any interpretation is based upon the Bible alone, and that no such interpretation shall become an issue which hinders the work to which God is accomplishing here.
Besides, we know from Proverbs 25:2 that "It is the glory of God to conceal a matter..." Christians are supposed to be lovers of truth, and I'm hoping we can all consider that our current interpretations of prophecy may be slightly incorrect since we also know that 1 Corinthians 13 tells us we see "through a glass, darkly" and that God even told Daniel in Daniel 12:4, "But thou, O Daniel, shut up the words, and seal the book, even to the time of the end: many shall run to and fro, and knowledge shall be increased."
Thus, when it comes to the study of Bible prophecy and my current understanding following such study I believe the following to be true in general:
1. The events foretold in the Book of Revelation are set in our future and are therefore unfulfilled.
2. The Rapture of the Church is a literal and future event to come.
On matters of end times prophecy it's very important for me to convey to you that I am not above admitting that I may be wrong in my interpretation and understanding of some things. May we all be so flexible and humble.
However, when it comes to the basic tenets of our shared faith I will boldly proclaim that I will never waver on the following beliefs:
1. There is only one true God and that is the God of the Holy Bible. He eternally exists in three persons -- Father, Son, and Holy Spirit -- each of whom possesses equally all the attributes of Deity and the characteristics of personality.
2. Jesus Christ is God, the living Word, my Lord and Savior, who became flesh through His miraculous conception by the Holy Spirit and His virgin birth. Hence, He is perfect and no one gets to the Father except through faith in Him.
3. He lived a sinless life and voluntarily atoned for the sins of men by dying on the cross as their substitute, thus satisfying divine justice and accomplishing salvation for all who trust in Him alone.
4. He rose from the dead in the same body, though glorified, in which He lived and died.
5. He ascended bodily into Heaven and sat down at the right hand of God the Father, where He, the only mediator between God and man, continually makes intercession for His own.
6. Man was originally created in the image of God. He sinned by disobeying God; thus, he was alienated from his Creator. That historic fall brought all mankind under divine condemnation.
7. Man's nature is corrupted, and he is thus totally unable to please God. Every man is in need of regeneration and renewal by the Holy Spirit.
8. The salvation of man is wholly a work of God's free grace and is not the work, in whole or in part, of human works or goodness or religious ceremony. God imputes His righteousness to those who put their faith in Christ alone for their salvation, and thereby justified them in His sight.
9. It is the privilege of all who are born again of the Spirit to be assured of their salvation from the very moment in which they trust Christ as their Savior. This assurance is not based upon any kind of human merit, but is produced by the witness of the Holy Spirit, who confirms in the believer the testimony of God in His written Word. I don't believe in leaving Jesus hanging on the cross.
10. The Holy Spirit has come into the world to reveal and glorify Jesus Christ and to apply the saving work of Christ to men. He convicts and draws sinners to Christ, imparts new life to them, continually indwells them from the moment of spiritual birth, and seals them until the day of redemption. His fullness, power, and control are appropriated in the believer's life by faith.
11. Every believer is called to live so in the power of the indwelling Spirit that he will not fulfill the lust of the flesh but will bear fruit to the glory of God. I will constantly work at taking every thought captive to Christ.
12. Jesus Christ is the Head of the Church, His Body, which is composed of all men, living and dead, who have been joined to Him through saving faith.
13. God admonishes His people to assemble together regularly for worship, for participation in ordinances, for edification through the Scriptures and for mutual encouragement. May this forum contribute to that end in some small way and encourage us to take part in greater, more in-depth fellowship and worship after leaving this space.
14. Jesus Christ will come again to the Earth -- personally, visibly, and bodily -- to consummate history and the eternal plan of God.
15. The Lord Jesus Christ commanded all believers to proclaim the Gospel throughout the world and to disciple men of every nation. The fulfillment of that Great Commission requires that all worldly and personal ambitions be subordinated to a total commitment to "Him who loved us and gave Himself for us." Again, may He empower me to perform and fulfill this command here.
16. The Lord Jesus Christ commanded us repeatedly to watch and pray so that's what I intend to do with each day He gives me on this planet.

as for the word church, I see that you have capitalized it. to somehow show it to be a noun and an physical entity?
this is a falicy, if you take the time to check the entire bible you will find it is capitalized NO where.
the reason for this is because the so called church does not exist. it was and is just a group or assembly of like minded people!
the so called church or building and it's luciferian preachers want you to believe that they are of CHRIST when in accuality they are anti-christ programmers, and MANipulators sent by the gov. beast to stear you into thier cattle shoots.
did GOD not warn you about worshiping stone, brick and wooden idols???
have you not read about how they are vainity and nothingness???
have you not seen what happened to old testament isreal, when they succumed to this luciferian practice of stone temples and pharissitical preachers???
when will you except the truth???
did CHRIST not say every stone would be thrown down???
and HE the corner stone of GOD's temple is the only one or thing to be worshiped!!!
your still not getting it. the rapture is a LIE! and you have already lost your new found faith,
by not trusting god and JESUS CHRIST to bring you through the fire tried and tested to stand amongst the saints of the most high!!!
GOD forgive thier blindness for they can not see the truth when it is presented to them!!!!!!!

Thank you John.
I can assure you that I didn't give a single thought to the implications of capitalizing the word "Church" and even now am not quite sure why I decided to do that.
Also, while I believe there's a literal and future Rapture event that doesn't mean I automatically assume I'd be part of that "escape" as one of those "counted worthy to escape the things to come upon the earth). Whatever form the "escape" takes, if God decides it will bring greater glory to Him for me to endure any Tribulation trials, then I have complete confidence that He will see me through.
In any event, I will take your comments under prayerful consideration.
Saved By Grace Through Faith,
Jeff - September 24, 2009 at 2:19 PM
just to make my case clear.
the rapture is a LIE! it does not come from GOD's word in any shape or form.
so those who have faith in the LIE that is the rapture, have forsaken GOD and JESUS CHRIST! and have given themselves over to another christ or anti-christ.
if you do not have faith that JESUS has the power to bring his chosen people thru the tribulation
unscathed. you have no faith in CHRIST at all!!! this is your big blind mistake.
also the word church came form, curch or kurch which was the bench or table that the money changers(bankers), mite infested dove merchants(infomercal salesmen) and TAX collectors(theives)
set up outside the main temple in the court yard, and the SINagogs throughout asia
if you believe this was and is sanctified by GOD you are lost and out of touch with GOD and his WORD
the body of CHRIST is the TEMPLE,
the people who have true faith in JESUS to save his people from ALL things and love of the truth of GODS WORD, are the body of CHRIST!!!
agian it is all there in the king james bible, stop trying to make GODS WORD fit your rapture lie!
and start excepting the love of the truth in it's pureist form,
total faith in JESUS CHRIST!!!!!!!

John you are confusing the use of the word "church".
It is not referring to the building because it truly is an assemble of like-minded people.
The word "church" can also be used to mean the body of believers of which the head is Jesus Christ. The capitalization comes from the fact that Jesus is the Head.
Now concerning the "lucifarian" preachers; preachers were common in the beginning of Christianity. Paul and Peter are two examples. Was not Christ considered a rabbi, or Hebrew preacher. Can you call these people "lucifarian".
There are certainly false preachers that might even be from the government. They don't follow what Christ and the apostles taught and so they can be identified. It is wrong to say that all preachers are evil because you are calling those who do what god has called them to do evil.
You are correct that we are by no means to worship any material thing. Even the throne in the temple was empty and no image of God was ever placed there. It is also wrong to hold any image of some saint of Christ as anything more than a piece of rock or wood. To worship them is idalotry. However the building I go to listen to teaching a fellowship with other believers in has never come to my mind as an object worth worshiping. There is nothing in the building itself that separates it from the the building next to it. The difference is its use as a place of worship and teaching.
It it clear that you have a confused understanding of the gathering of believers for worship teaching and fellowship. It might be due to some experience in a church led by false teachers and devoted to a false gospel.
Regarding the rapture this site and certainly the bible say otherwise. - September 24, 2009 at 2:42 PM

Perhaps the following revision needs to be made to my original post:
"2. The escape of the church (i.e. read that to mean the true Body of Christ) is a literal and future event to come. Now, whether that "escape" takes the form of what many traditionally call the "Rapture", or some other means of God seeing His faithful through the intensity of the coming Tribulation remains to be seen. Bottom line, I believe there is a future and literal escape for true believers consister with Jesus' own clear command in the Book of Luke:
Luke 21:36 (KJV) Watch ye therefore, and pray always, that ye may be accounted worthy to escape all these things that shall come to pass, and to stand before the Son of man.
Saved By Grace Through Faith,
Jeff - September 24, 2009 at 4:17 PM
i'm not confusing anything!
I have already explained where the word came from and what it means.
you can twist it into anything you want, but the truth remains the truth!!!
you see church does not exist in the original munuscripts either it was brought in by that other satanic religion roman catholicism.
you are the one that is confused and we all know who the father of confussion is, don't we?
he is also the father of lies (i.e. the rapture!)
the true CHRISTIANS will remain here through the tribulation under the protection of GOD and JESUS CHRIST, just like noah, lot and the apostels.
the proof is in CHRIST's own prayer
to GOD in the garden of gethsemane.
where JESUS is praising GOD for the work he has done in the disciples, and JESUS specificaly asks GOD not to remove them from the earth!
John 17:11-23 And I am no more in the world, and these are in the world, and I come to thee. Holy Father, keep them in thy name which thou hast given me, that they may be one, even as we are. While I was with them, I kept them in thy name which thou hast given me: and I guarded them, and not one of them perished, but the son of perdition; that the scripture might be fulfilled. But now I come to thee; and these things I speak in the world, that they may have my joy made full in themselves. I have given them thy word; and the world hated them, because they are not of the world, even as I am not of the world.( I pray not that thou shouldest take them from the world, but that thou shouldest keep them from the evil one.) They are not of the world even as I am not of the world. Sanctify them in the truth: thy word is truth. As thou didst send me into the world, even so sent I them into the world. And for their sakes I sanctify myself, that they themselves also may be sanctified in truth. Neither for these only do I pray, but for them also that believe on me through their word; that they may all be one; even as thou, Father, art in me, and I in thee, that they also may be in us: that the world may believe that thou didst send me. And the glory which thou hast given me I have given unto them; that they may be one, even as we are one; I in them, and thou in me, that they may be perfected into one; that the world may know that thou didst send me, and lovedst them, even as thou lovedst me.
so you see CHRIST asked GOD not to take the disciples out of the world, but to protect them from the evil one, it could not be any clearer are you a diciple of GOD or not??? that is your decision to make not mine ,but it is my job as a CHILD of GOD to warn you about false and dangerous teachings!!!
so there is the truth, do with it what you will and GOD will be the judge!!!
GOD help them to discern fact from fiction, reality from fantacy and
truth from lies!!! if it is in your will!!!!!!!amen

Dear JRed...I can sense the difference. You have been with the Lord. Remember how Moses' face shone when he came down from the mountain? I can sense your face is shinier :-)
I have prayed for you every day during your 'dark night of the soul.' Allow your elder Christian sister to express my joy that you have your priorities straight, and it shows on the website.
I'm just one of many who comment, so you probably don't remember a couple of times when I mentioned how important it was to spend an hour or two (or more!) in the Word and in prayer every single day before attempting anything else. It is the single most important practice for keeping us in the center of His Will.
And now relax in the grace of the Lord's bounty. We all go through those times of testing and obedience and growth. It's a part of the Christian walk. And, believe me, no matter how old one gets the pruning never stops.
The joy of the Lord is our strength. I look forward to meeting you in the air. Very soon! And I will know you.
May God richly bless you and Mrs. JRed and the little JReds. You will remain on my prayer list. - September 24, 2009 at 6:52 PM

John, you're crazy as a loon. The concept of the rapture is described in models and typologies throughout the bible and its mentioned in a word as well, but in a different language.
I wouldn't state what I'm stating as strongly as I am if you didn't come off as such a pompous *ss. You just might find out on Judgment Day that your "know it all" attitude is going to cost you.
If you have an opinion, fine, but quick telling everybody else they're wrong. Maybe you lack the discernment necessary to see what so many others see. - September 24, 2009 at 9:03 PM
happy that You re back Jeff
I do not think that the time of "be still and wait" is over, yet.
I keep watching the couple of sites in what a lot rang true to me the past weeks; but since last weekend there is haziness and assumption all around;
like it became móre difficult for everybody to hear His Voice
- and definately the air got VERY polluted, lately
And it requires being even more attentive and silent
please be a Fellowship exactly in thése days, and help us not distract from what we waited for
"Though it linger, wait for it :
it will certainly come
and will NOT delay "

arm thru to you
ya your right, CHRIST is wrong???
I have shone you scriptual thruth again, directly from CHRIST's prayer to GOD and you still will not except the truth!
I'm not worried about my salvation,
thou I'm not perfect and I do not understand everything. I can see the truth when it is presented to me by GOD.
you keep listening to million dollar preachers, and proffesionaly trained monkies mascerading as pastor's
and I will stop casting my pearls before swine!!!
their ears are stuffed and thier eyes are blinded, help them if you will GOD !!!!!!! amen

John, despite not realizing it, you're embarrassing yourself and doing a great disservice to advancing the Word of God.
You're NOT a prophet, so quick posting like you think you are. I'm telling you, you sound like an idiot. Either you're too young to be posting, extremely immature, or just spiritually blind and intellectually challenged. - September 25, 2009 at 9:27 AM
Wow-this comment section has sure taken a dramatic turn!!!! Me thinks that perhaps satan is NOT pleased with your wonderful, joyous and refreshed growth with our LORD and Savior, JRed. So glad that you are back! Love the picture of you and your sweet family! So happy that you took the time to seek - and that you did find!
May you and your family, and all of us here in this fellowship, continue to draw nearer and nearer and nearer to HIM! - September 25, 2009 at 10:49 AM
Jeff - glad you are back. I would just have to say, the Rapture is very true. Once the church age is over, age of grace - Christ will be re-united with His bride (church) Then God will deal with Israel. Noah and his family were saved. EVERYONE on the whole earth perished. Lot and his two daughters were the only ones that escaped. Lots wife did not. She turned and looked. She is a representation of those that claim they love the Lord, but is unable to give up their earthly desires. God is beginning and end. He knows exactly the last gentile that will accept His grace of salvation freely. Once that is done, the church age will be complete. If God is going to protect the church during the 7 year tribulation; why are Christians around the globe being murdered right now. Wouldn't he want to protect them, so they can be here to spread the truth about Christ. Maybe the reason Christ asked God to protect the disciples was because they needed to spread the gospel. But like the early church they too were martyred. In the case of the old testament. Israeli worship false gods, like baal. They adapted and kept the egyptian ways of worship. That is why every last one of them except two from that generation lived to cross over to what God promised. God commands worship from His children. Those that love and obey Him. This is why Israel was taken into captivity, because of their disobedience. But God had made a covenant with Abraham, a blood covenant. God is not a liar. That covenant still holds on today. I find that when people use scriptures to prove their point, they are not studying the bible. Having a bible that connects scriptures from the new and old, gives you a better understanding. Because things that happen in the old testament - some of the same verses are in the new testament. A trumpet will be blown, and all believers names will be called. The rapture will happen, because God always proves Himself to the unbeliever. That is the day no one would want to be on the earth if left here. The whole world will be corrupt. There will be no where to hide. Why would God need to keep us here? He can protect us in heaven.. The only people He will protect during the last 3 1/2 years will be 144,000 Jews. People that become believers will be hunted down like animals and killed. The law of the land will forbid anyone to worship God. I trust in Christ, and I have more faith each day gets closer to Him calling us home. I'm like a kid waiting to receive a gift, I know that has been promised to me. While in the church age I will have tribulation, but after the church age, I am rapture and no longer will have a bit of sin in my body. That is the blessed Hope..
- September 25, 2009 at 1:02 PM
you answered many of your own questions. the christians that are being murderd around the world, most likly are not real christians
most are just like lots wife.
allthough some may be true martyrs.
also it is true that the deciples were martyerd, but that was at the time of GODS chosing, as an example to you! so you see that they did not fly away like little birdies in a rapture that is a lie!!!
so are you better or more important then the apostles,that you should be granted amnesty from the tribulation. I think not!!!
the real spiritualy alive sevents of GOD, know that they will endure many hardships including the tribulation!!!
as for the church I have already adressed that burning bridge, please read above!
the age we are in right now , is the kingdom of heaven, it started the day CHRIST started his ministry!!! and it will as GOD said, never end!!!!!!!
so as I said there is NO church! it is a word made popular by the luciferians to pull GODS childern into satans traps!
the knowledge and worship of GOD&JESUS CHRIST is a personal spiritual awakening, and has nothing to do with the traditions of man!!!
so come out of spitual babylon, pick up your bible (KJV) and continue to study. because from what you wrote,
you have alot to grasp on to yet.
arm thru to you
thank you for the complament, but I do not consider myself a prophet.
if I sound like one to you, that should be a sign that maybe you need to listen to what I have said?
anyway I speek in the voice GOD gave me, so IF it sounds prophetic
it is just another blessing GOD has bestowed upon me!!!
thank you dear LORD for all the blessings you have given to me, your lowly little servent!!!!!!!
john - September 27, 2009 at 9:30 AM
I love your statement of faith. I think it is EXCELLENT and well thought out.
By the way, welcome back! I love your openness with what you've been through. I KNOW the Lord will use your situation to reach many of us who may have been focusing too much on prophecy, but not getting close enough to Him (by praying, studying the Word, etc.) I think the Lord convicted you of this as He has been to many of us. We are to draw near to him because time is short. We don't need to "figure it all out", but we do need to be strengthened in our faith and know we are relying on Him alone. As long as these priorities are there, studying the endtimes is just fine and most definitely relevant in the times we are in!!
P.S. Your family is ADORABLE!!! - September 27, 2009 at 11:15 PM

Dear JRed,
Thank you for taking the time to put together and publish your statement of faith. It gives new visitors to the site (like myself) a comfort factor.
I agree with everything you have said.
David - September 30, 2009 at 7:57 PM
I love the way you look at things, I have been reading about this treaty that is to be signed in December in Copenhagen. Can you write something about it?
So many signs, I am thankful God has put you in my path, it helps to reaffirm my faith and keeps me poised on Jesus Christ rather than the things of this world. Thank you for your work!! - October 22, 2009 at 10:03 AM

to anonymous we are the church each individual is a church if one or two gather together they are the church so we do not need buildings of brick mortar... & if grow rubber plants & reinforce it with safety glass would be a lot safer hygeinicer healthier protecting then what we have had so far... as in the our father it states as they kingdom come thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven... so following congregations that congregate in porous welded wired poled beamed framed eves surely you can see not of our father in heaven...???? so pray on waiting for sanity to fall apon how many deceived sheples...???
- November 6, 2009 at 8:08 PM
I really like your "faith statement". What a way to put it out there! I'm glad our paths crossed. :)
Regarding the rapture statements from anon,
Jesus said, In my Father's house are many mansions: if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you.
And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you unto myself; that where I am, there ye may be also.
John 14:2-3
Because you have kept the word of my perseverance,I also will keep you from the hour of testing, that hour which is about to come upon the whole world, to test those who dwell on the earth. Rev 3:10 - December 9, 2009 at 4:22 AM
Watch ye therefore, and pray always, that ye may be accounted worthy to escape all these things that shall come to pass, and to stand before the Son of man.
Luke 21:36
For the Lord Himself will descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of an archangel, and with the trumpet of God. And the dead in Christ will rise first. Then we who are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air. And thus we shall always be with the Lord. Therefore comfort one another with these words.
1 Thes 4:16-18
For God did not appoint us to wrath, but to obtain salvation through our Lord Jesus Christ
1 Thes 5:9 - December 9, 2009 at 4:56 AM
God is not going to pour out his wrath on the church, the body of christ, aka "US", those who believe on him. Jesus says with his own mouth, pray that we are worthy to escape the things that will come to pass. He wouldn't have said that if he didn't provide us with an "escape" aka the rapture. Also, he wouldn't tell us to comfort one another with these words if his message wasn't comforting. Tribulation is not comforting. Jesus is faithful, he will do what he says. He will come for us. He tells us to watch, stay sober, don't fall asleep! He comes as a thief in the night. No warning, no signs. Only the Father knows what time.
God Bless! :) - December 9, 2009 at 5:16 AM
Thank you for the wise words, I should be as concerned about learning God's word as I am in His prophecy. It seems like common sense now that I've heard that message. You have a great site here, and it's easy to see that you are not a person interested in power or fame, but just truly concerned about your fellow man. Thanks again, and God bless all of you :) - December 17, 2009 at 5:35 PM
- Tammy L said...
Though I do believe there is a rapture coming,I do not see that rapture occurring before the tribulation. Look at Matthew 24:29 Immediately AFTER those days of tribulation.... Then 2 Thessalonians 2:3-5 3 Let no one deceive you by any means; for that Day will not come unless the falling away comes first, and the man of sin is revealed, the son of perdition, 4 who opposes and exalts himself above all that is called God or that is worshiped, so that he sits as God in the TEMPLE OF GOD showing himself that he is God.
Then in Revelation the Greek word for keep, the translation means protection to keep safe. Nowhere does it say remove. However,we are not due God's wrath. Wrath of God and tribulation are very different from one another.
The rapture or the harpazzo the taking away is going to be no secret occurrence. The whole world will know that the taking away has occurred. And they will mourn. The only secret in this happening, is the day and the hour. Matthew 24:30 "At that time the sign of the Son of Man will appear in the sky, and all the nations of the earth will mourn. They will see the Son of Man coming on the clouds of the sky, with power and great glory. 31And he will send his angels with a loud trumpet call, and they will gather his elect from the four winds, from one end of the heavens to the other.
that is not secret,and it is a taking away. If you want to see when the rapture occurs in Revelation, read chapter 14:12-16. That matches exactly Matt 24:30 Jesus sitting on a cloud in great glory,and reaping the earth pulling in his own. That also coincides with the seventh trumpet. Where the angel stands in the heavens and proclaims the kingdoms of the world are become the kingdoms of our Lord.and of his Christ and he shall reign forever and ever. Also Daniel 2:44 matches that as well as 7:14,18,27.
As for Martyrs,there are many many martyrs that must go before us. We even we true Christians those who truly make up the body of Christ may even be martyred. Our testimony will be great, and turn many hardened hearts to the Lord.I can assure you Christians in other countries especially those countries that are very poor, are truly Christs own. They are martyred because they refuse to turn away from their witness of Jesus.
John you seem so angry when you write here. I am praying that the Lord will help you not to be so angry. Anger never ever comes from the Lord. Remember John, Condemnation does not come from the Lord for those who love and live for Christ,Only judgmental people condemn. Also I will end with this John,you do not know who is truly, and who is not truly Christs own. You do not see the heart nor do you know it of anyone,only God knows the heart. We are not here to judge one another's salvation status.
God bless you Jeff and ever keep you growing in the Lord and knowledge of Him. - December 19, 2009 at 12:33 PM
- Tammy L said...
ooooops forgot except with the exclusion of; excluding; save; but: They were all there except me. accept is the word your trying to spell here, to take or receive (something offered); receive with approval or favor: to accept a present; to accept a proposal.

I stumbled upon the site researching the topic Aliens\Demon's. After reading numerous articles I decided to read your article of faith.; amen brother. Growing up as a pk in Open Bible (Pentacostal organization similar to Assemblies of God or Foursquare) I feal as sure and strongly about my faith. As I was reading comments found in this section I felt led to leave this warning to numerous posters. "He who justifies the wicked, and he who condemns the just, both of them alike are an abomination to the LORD" (Proverbs 17:150

Buffalo pudding is supposed to be good, I won't eat it because of the ingredients in it. I feast on the Pure Word of G-d and believe every word. I won't study any books that take away from or add to the Word, I don't follow any teaching that does the same. I have studied a number of Web-pages and bookmark them for their accuracy and reliability on the Bible. I find the people that criticize this site, as having little or no knowledge of G-d's Word. I do not find any fault with any of the Statement put forth.
