A Message From God So Intense, America Will Be Shaken To Its Core! (Video)
Hurry! Get into the ark of Jesus Christ, because a massive storm is headed our way, and there isn't much time left!
God is showing us many signs that we are the generation who will see the book of Revelation unfold, page-by-page. The question is, will you get in before it's too late?
And now, God sends us a man of truth with an urgent life-and-death message for the United States of America. Will we heed the warning and get prepared spiritually for what is coming? Will the body of Christ, at least, repent of her sins against God? This nation as a whole will not repent, however, you can!
During the Exodus of the Israelites from the bondage of Egypt, Moses stood in the face of Pharaoh on behalf of God and demanded, "Let MY people go!" However, the Pharaoh refused, and so ten plagues were poured out on Egypt by God because they would not release the Israelites from bondage.
The tenth plague was the death of the firstborn child. God commanded that His people put the blood of the lamb on their doorpost so that when the death angel came, he would passover their home and they would therefore be safe from any harm.
Afterward, the Pharaoh was so grieved by the death of his son that he finally granted Moses his request—he let God's people go. And we know the rest of the story.
What I want to say is there is coming a great spiritual exodus and God is sending us people like Moses to stand in the face of the enemy who is holding God's people in bondage and slavery to the kingdom of hell, commanding the enemy, "Devil! In the name of Jesus Christ, Yeshua, King of Kings and Lord of Lords! You Let MY people go!" The plagues are coming. God is angry. God will set His people free!
Please, I urge you, put the blood of the lamb, (the blood of Jesus Christ), on your doorpost today (your heart, your home, your life) and get ready for the greatest spiritual exodus you will ever witness!
A Man Has Been Raised Up by God With An Intense Message For America

Christians cannot relate with those who do not COME TO CHRIST.
The ESSENCE of Judaism/Islam is vengeance.
The ESSENCE of Christianity is Conciousness and ENLIGHTENMENT
- Pale Writer
You say "Christians cannot relate with those who do not COME TO CHRIST."
That one isn't true in the very least. Christians themselves before they came to Christ knew what it was like before and after they themselves came to Christ. So Christians are very much able to relate and resonate with all those of any faith and none because they were not always saved themselves and God and His Holy Spirit Gifts enable outreach and growth of the Christian both within the church primarily for disciplining and into all the world primarily for evangelizing and bringing saved and unsaved back into the church. The difference you failed to touch on is real Christians who are biblically appraised followers of Jesus Christ. They do not want to participate in everyone else's sin that they got called by God and ordered themselves to come of and have nothing to do with all the sins of the people,nations,governments,churches,banksters and money changers and various systems. So the Christians who is pleasing to God chooses to not always sin and be around and with others sinners constantly. Whereas the unsaved can do nothing but sin and only live a natural carnal mans life devoid of the Spirit and Life of God. So the Christians typically are to follow and obey the Spirit of God which leads to Life instead of the spirit of this world that's stuck in sin that always leads people and civilizations to death. That's some of the differences. The Christian is still suppose to love the sinner but also like God Himself hate the mans sin.
"CHRISTianity follows Enlightenment through the Universal Conciousness ."
You're dead wrong on that one too. That's maybe what the NWO globalist Illuminati who think and say they are Christians but are those who do not submit to the Lordship of Jesus Christ nor any form of obedience to the Spirit God that they are devoid of through their sins of rebellion,thefts,murders,idolatry,adulteries and witchcraft.
Real born again Christians are made like the angels. (Mark 12:25) They hear the word of God for their lives by faith and obedience to both the Word of God and Spirit of God and then they do it without questioning it. Consciousness and even universal consciousness has nothing to do with any real life of Christ in and through anyone. Consciousness is for fellowship and attempts at unity,common purposes common goals etc. Any can feel alright in conscious individually and universally but they still are probably on the broad path that leads to hell because it's not the mans conscious that needs saved. It's all of man that needs saved and not just their sin soaked defiled consciences before they are saved. Because it took all of that Man who was and is God's Son Jesus Christ to die on the cross for the sins of the world and not simply just His Conscious.
I could pick apart some other items on there too. But I want to be nice since I myself am a Christian. John 13:35 KJV & HCSB "By this all people will know that you are My disciples, if you have love for one another."
So in summary here's what really matters.
Enlightenment matters not.
Knowledge matters not and in fact "puffs up",conflates feeds and fuels pride. 1 Corinthians 8:1
Conscious matters not. IE a man can be comatose and still could be saved or unsaved.
What matters is love.
If your Christian or anybody who says they are a Christian? If they do not first Love God via the Spirit of God and Word of God in obedience to God? And then if they don't show love to their fellow man by pointing out where they are sinning or in error and on the wrong side of God and History? Then they do not love and are not real saved Christians indwelt with God in the Father Son and Holy Spirit. Because there is NOW WAY any man can have The Father Son and Holy Spirit inside them,their human body (which is also God's temple). There is NO WAY any can be baptized into all three and have all three of the God head inside them and then they not love one another. It's impossible. They way they love might be questionable. But not if they love or not. That's without question and shows from them who are saved. But the unsaved do not love. It shows in everything they say and do also. The best any gets there is secular humanism and that's the same thing as trying to love any other without God and without God's Spirit doing it or assisting or part taking in that.
I hope that clears some things up for you and others who might read your posts.
Old Testament days under the Law you would have been stoned to death for heresy. Aren't you thankful to God that we are all under Grace instead of the Law now this side of the cross AD and Resurrection of Jesus Christ and Pentecost coming to the true called out/sanctified Universal Church?
Participate in the "Regeneration with the Holy Spirit" and you will have all the enlightenment you need to accomplish God's will plan and purpose for your life.
1 John 2:17 BSB "The world is passing away along with its desires, but whoever does the will of God remains forever."
First part of verse in Psalm 47:4 "He shall choose our inheritance for us."
Before the end of your days. Make sure you yourself are found to be in the right,correct,best and or needed "inheritance" that God has chosen for any man woman or child. And then see what else or other inheritance might be allowed or allowable to others or others to yours short term or long? That's how the world will know you love and are loved by God too.

What the Jewish Rabbis think of JESUS "As for Christianity, there is a dispute among Halachic authorities, but the vast majority consider it idolatry as well. Islam, on the other hand, is not considered idolatry."
Read that last bit again: "Islam, on the other hand, is not considered idolatry."
Now read the Judgement of the rabbis …… Christians are IDOLATORS and should be put to death …… muslums NOT idolators ……
On the attitude towards gentiles–with sources
1. Killing gentiles and saving their lives
1.1) In principle, every person practicing idolatry (whether a gentile or a Jew) should be
put to death by a court of law. Idolatry is attributing divinity to any object (physical
or spiritual) other than the one and only G-d, whether this is done through ritual
(such as prayer, offerings of incense, or the like) or by a mere statement of faith.
Several contemporary religions, such as Hinduism, Buddhism, and Zoroastrianism,
are undoubtedly considered idolatry. As for Christianity, there is a dispute among
Halachic authorities, but the vast majority consider it idolatry as well. Islam, on the
other hand, is not considered idolatry.
In a situation (such as we have now) where there is no Jewish court of law which
can sentence people to death, to corporal punishment, or even to the fines prescribed
by the Torah, and which therefore can not judge a man for the sin of idolatry:
It is permissible (and even commanded) for anyone to kill idolatrous Jews (and
those Jews, including atheists and agnostics, who publicly reject the divine authority
of Halacha) anywhere and anytime it is possible. However, contemporary Halachic
authorities have ruled that this law doesn't apply nowadays.
While there is no obligation to kill idolatrous gentiles (nor, in fact, any gentiles who
don't obey the 7 Noachide commandments), it is nevertheless forbidden to save their
lives. The exact Halachic status of a gentile who doesn't practice idolatry as defined
above (and who also can be considered as fulfilling in practice the other Noachide
commandments), yet who declares himself to be an atheist or agnostic is not entirely
clear, though from some sources it appears that he too should be considered an

Yep, ALL Jewish Rabbis are satan.
You have a problem with supremacy.
- Pale Writer
Not seeing or hearing any love nor Creator God of Love in any of that.
So what's your point?
- Pale Writer
Psalm 16:4 KJV "Their sorrows shall be multiplied that hasten after another god: their drink offerings of blood will I not offer, nor take up their names into my lips."
Watch and see and hear of all the "sorrows" that everyone will have who have gone the way of any other God or god but the One true God Yahweh Elohim even through Adonai who is the one and only Messiah Lord Jesus Christ. I know they do not like losing but they will have to start getting real use to it. Because their fallen ones kicked out of heaven inside them and upon them who you speak about there have already been Judged by Yahweh and We are just waiting for the full execution of that entire Judgment upon all those rebellious fallen entities/spirits who have also brain washed some mens minds and tricked their dull hearts and deaf ears into believing the lie instead of the truth.
So some lessons from that Word of Truth in Psalm 16:4 is this.
A. They and their families and their business and their war mongering parties of terror will have sorrow upon sorrows heaped up upon them in this life as well the next for all eternity.
B. The blood they spill in which they think is for service to their god the One Real True God over All of them and everything will Not accept!
C. Their names of their cult their names of their church their names of their bank and sources financing their terror as well their names of their family/mafia and individuals performing such acts of violence against others My Blessed Holy Yahweh God will not show any regard for nor honor to with His Own Holy Lips.
D. "Barter" is and interesting word used there in that passage of scripture from the NASB "The sorrows of those who have 'BARTERED'(and Hastened KJV) for another god will be multiplied."
Haste makes wastes and President Donald Trump and Our Yahweh God and myself and many others have the tip of our spears and point of our swords set at all their gates and works to fully expose all the "waste" they all made and effected onto others in all their "haste".
Barter: To exchange (a banking term also IMF/Federal Reserve world central banks Rothschild Rockefeller George Soros etc) Noah Websters definition of "barter". "to exchange without using money." (IE Hillary Clintons illicit Uranium deal as well as Harry Reids illegitimate unconstitutional deal with the Communist Chinese for that 5 billion dollar solar farm on US tax payer owned land and land and water rights for their animals north of Las Vegas Nevada in and around Bunkerville NV. No money exchanged. Just "here you go". Barter:"Trade by exchange" also.
Now see and hear who's Word (holy writings) and who's God or god and man will Stand and who's will not?
Me and my Great God in Jesus Christ have final say in what and who is stuck in idolatry and who is not. And ALL those who force their idolatry on us and our lives anywhere anytime? Will literally find themselves crushed and bankrupted spiritually,politically,financially/economically (left out to battle and war without any supplies nor aide nor cavalry ever coming to help them. Pulverized crushed obliterated and annihilated in the Infowar as well crushed intellectually,morally and meta physically every way 24 to 7 365 days a year day and night.
It won't be pretty what happens to them who you speak of. Not at all.
"You must be holy because I, the LORD your God, am holy" (Leviticus 19:2).
1 Peter 1
13. Therefore, with minds that are alert and fully sober, set your hope on the grace to be brought to you when Jesus Christ is revealed at his coming. 14 As obedient children, do not conform to the evil desires you had when you lived in ignorance. 15 But just as he who called you is holy, so be holy in all you do; 16 for it is written: "Be holy, because I am holy."
I am only saying that believers (of both faiths) ought to practice holiness.
- Pale Writer
I wouldn't teach this one to anyone I loved nor any child. But I could be drunk as all hell and riding the Great Whore of Babylon getting fu#ked and or Fu#king everyone and everything else in our path and I would Still be more holy,more godly,more god fearing,more righteous and more awake through drunkenness,perversion and or through sobriety then anyone else I ever met or knew or ever heard of in my life! Because that isn't based on me and what I would be doing for supposed selfish ambition from lustful appetite alone. I'd end up controlling it,steering it and mastering that better they all they who are making it and doing that now only for evil!
Any can practice holiness and still end up not being holy but in their own mind and in their own click. It isn't through practicing anything that makes you that. I could drink and I wouldn't ever become the drink. I could sex and I wouldn't ever become sex itself. Etc.
God is Holy. He has to make you and I holy so that we might have a relationship with the whole Him who is not only just Holy. And he's done that already with and through Jesus Christ. It is finished. You need nothing else. I performed Romans 12:1-2 not so that I might be and become holy. I did it so that I might prove the will of God at least for my very own life so I didn't have to have anyone else and everyone else telling me what I had to do and what I had to say and what I had to perform to be pleasing to them who are NEVER SATISFIED servants of failed Banks,death,hell evil,socialism,communism and Nazi anything,everything and projected upon everyone!
Romans 12:1-2 I challenge anyone anywhere to do more then I have already. Been there done that and in many ways and am still there far more then anyone else on the planet I ever met or heard of.
You mean to be a good soul MadJewessWoman. Why don't you come on back and preach to me when you have walked away from and left behind every comfort and convenience man made thing and device in your life including your contacts list? Then we might have more to really talk about that wouldn't get in the way of Holiness or becoming holy because distractions and diversions and worthless things of men would have at least temporarily been put aside in order to see what and Who God might put front and center you and your life in Him instead of you and your prerogative in hoping to serve Him and be more pleasing to Him.
No amount of good works,nice deeds,proper kind or unkind words ever gets anyone accepted into Gods Holy Presence which is also Heaven.
'You mean to be a good soul MadJewessWoman. Why don't you come on back and preach to me when you have walked away from and left behind every comfort and convenience man made thing and device in your life including your contacts list?'
I dont even know you and you dont know me.
But, I do have to tell you: You are on the computer. Seems to me that you are the pot calling the kettle black.
- Pale Writer
I don't have to know you. Myself and all have to Know God and be Known by Him if they truly want to live and see life.
I am on a computer. But I have never once spent so much as one penny on the internet connection for it. And now for the last 9 plus years it's powered by a little gasoline powered inverter style 110 volt power generator that gets between 9.5 to 13.5 hours run time on 1 gallon of fuel. So no electric bill. I'm not grid tied and never will be. I have one bill a month which is auto insurance for my 5 used vehicles mostly from the last century (that old). And I quit my cell phone plan and even pay as you go way long before Obama took office also. Call that what you will. But long ago I began to allow the main thing to become the main thing regardless of what everyone else was doing and thinking all brain washed and demented like as if they couldn't do with out it now. Like reportedly ACA Obamacare the idiot morons keep on saying they have to see a plan or have a plan. And it's right in front of them. And it's what was before ACA and Obamacare became Federalized Socialized Healthcare even. It was private. That's when it worked and was affordable also. If you could keep you jobs they kept bankrupting and shipping abroad that is.
"Seems to me that you are the pot calling the kettle black." No idea what you're saying there. But just last week I lit up my LP oven in my cabin to see if it would work and so I could heat up my own pizza. Don't do much with kettles of any color. So after 9 years of being here not so much as one family member,neighbor,acquaintance or so called friend from my past or present came here to visit and so much try to bake some cookies or muffins or whatever. Shows you where a womans priority is within herself and pursuing her own thing her own way best as her headless mind tells her to do any of that mostly not God's way. Do you think women everywhere desperately need to get that message for themselves and their husbands God chooses for them even for their families from Genesis that says,"leave and cleave? Oh some have no trouble leaving mommy and father. Many do though. Not talking about those lost souls. But then when they finally find God's man for themselves what do they do? They don't at all do it God's way do they? They don't run to him and cleave to that man of theirs do they? Oh hell no. Cuz they know better then God. Leave and cleave to the woman of the world even flavored with Christianity still means to them. Leave the nest and go find your way and make your own way in the world. And then let business or pursuit of money and wealth or power,popularity,prominence prestige. Make that sh!t your goal,priority and even something worth safeguarding at all costs. Don't you just get a kick out of these wonderful brainless……I mean headless chicks who might suggest that they are for rule of law and the Constitution? And then go pay the tax man 900 bucks for that unconstitutional piece of crap screw job thing called healthcare. How can someone do that and still say they support the Constitution after the Supreme Courts decision in favor for Hobby Lobby many years ago? It's amazing to me how anyone could call them masters at anything? Now they fret about this coming March's tax payout as well. And on top of all that which is now obviously a legitimate concern since they already supported that fraud healthcare system and fraud POTUS. Of course they are going to keep on expecting to get payed their extortion tax for worthless as fu#k healthcare in the US. Chinese natural medicine like The Sunrider Corporation makes and sells would way better if they would allow that to be practiced here in MD places and hospitals also. So as if all that isn't bad enough? Their need now to hurry up and repeal Obamacare before March's tax deadline is an additional heaped up burden on our New President elect Donald Trump. Something that he should have had some more time to deal with till something else now has to get rammed right on through just so everyone doesn't have to go broke,poor and more penniless just to pay their healthcare taxes and support that most evil,most lawless,most wicked, most sinful Obama administration regime that America and the rest of world has ever heard of and known!
But ok. I'll be totally patient and polite and hold my tongue because I'd really like to be able to use it for other things on the significant ,meaningful,attractive,smart,educated,informed,bikini capable female body once again some day before I myself might get too old,too ugly,too fat and too pissed off and overly too unattractive and too unemployable. haha
"I don't even know you" you say. Well who's fault is that since it's not mine?
My woman and my fellow American female type creatures don't even know my camps LP oven. Now how the hell would I know them or you if they are as foreign to my kitchen as I had been to my own log home camps oven the last 9 years?

Even preachers have microphones. And then must have a secure way of transferring information and intelligence. Something you and most aren't really truly aware of. Am I not allowed a computer to do the Lords Work on the wall of this Border town area Watchtower in this Nation of Mine? I am American militia too. Grandfathered in from birth with that also. Now how do you suggest militia communicate without use of phones land,cell or sat?
I must have struck a nerve?
What do you think of a woman who one day wears a wedding ring or an engagement ring on her ring finger one day. And then doesn't other days? Seems to me like someone not convicted of baring false witness one way or another anyway any American looks at that. What good is someone who doesn't have convictions these days? Or perhaps maybe she's wearing that to identify with me and just didn't tell me or ask me if she could or should do that yet? Isn't Fake News what you also get when you're made to receive conflicting and contradicting messages from the same body or same source? Not to be mistaken for that same thing as being contrasting.
Is anyone whole out there? Does anyone really truly wish to be whole out there? It's not obeying everyone's laws in everyone's books or just certain books. The OT Law biblically speaking in and of just itself apart from Grace and Truth and Love central motive can only bring death When your own heart is true and you're following your God given convictions is when you are really truly set free. If you are doing that? Then fine. But don't figure on everyone else having to do the same thing with your own same conviction. I for one am still all in "Alter or Abolish" (Declaration of Independence) mode. Because if real men like me don't find a way to do that and steer that the least harmful way possible and what's coming to our nation? Then others that will end up doing that with a whole lot less control and whole lot less blessedness going for them and their works and much more harm to many will result.
By the way. We didn't even talk about it. Who died and left you a supposed female type creature woman preacher and leader over me and this mans body? I sure didn't ever consent to that. I pick and choose who will be my servant,my teacher,my preacher and my leader/s of any and every kind. It's always been that way once I grew up and got off the milk of the word too.
Mark 10:41-42 NLT "So Jesus called them together and said, "You know that the rulers in this world lord it over their people, and officials flaunt their authority over those under them."
"But among you it will be different. Whoever wants to be a leader among you must be your servant,"
Matthew 20:25-26 HCSB
"But Jesus called them over and said, "You know that the rulers of the Gentiles dominate them, and the men of high position exercise power over them." 26 NLT "But among you it will be different. Whoever wants to be a leader among you must be your servant,"
That said why don't you now start lecturing to me how you yourself have made and are intentionally deliberately making soiled "black kettles" and or also being My servant, even in the Lord? Otherwise you aren't anything to me and my Kingdom on earth nor in heaven. And you may as well go run off and work for the CNN and MSNBC infidels.
So I still don't know you. But I know where you should be if you want or desire rank or position with me and among "We" and Mine! And you have not made it there nor qualified yet.

You are a very good soul.
Thank you for sharing that and every compliment you can give me here or anywhere dear. And I'll see what I can say or do to give back to those who need it and those who deserve it coming to them.
He gave Moses a list of instructions to help the Israelites understand what it meant to live holy lives—lives set apart for God, reflecting His ways. He said,
"You must be holy because I, the LORD your God, am holy" (Leviticus 19:2).
- Pale Writer
True but now holiness and righteousness comes through Jesus Christ as a free gift. Nothing we can earn by doing anything for it.
Now. "Without faith it is impossible to please God." If you are hearing the correct faith word for your life of Christ fleshed out in you? Then you will have it all. Holiness and righteousness before God.
Your Moses's list of instructions and Commands means nothing without a personal relationship with the LORD. Because no man can keep nor do all the law and commands.
The Law of Moses informs man what sin is. Nothing more. The law of Christ frees man from all constraints and requirements of the law of Moses. You still have available blessings NT and OT. iT'S up to you what you do with them but know this. No blessing old or new covenants is symbolic nor indicative of approval and favor with God. Blessings as well as the curse is showered upon both the just and unjust. But it's only being found by God (and not yourself) to be found in Christ is the only place the curse cannot permanently harm any Child of God.
Remember. "Before you this day I have put the blessing and the curse." If you choose the NT Blessing of Christ first and foremost even seeking His Kingdom? Then ALL these things will be what? Earn-able? No. "Given unto you."
Luke 12:31 NASB "But seek His kingdom, and these things will be added to you."
Matthew HCSB "But seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things will be provided for you."
That sounds like entitlement because that's what it is. It's also a Promise of God. But I will warn you and tell you that it is incredibly hard,narrow path ,lonely because very very few choose it for themselves and immensely difficult to be literally doing that,"seeking His Kingdom and His Righteousness first in all things at all times. But by His Promise to give and provide for you. He is always true to His Word.
That isn't something anyone can just sit back and do nothing and expect it all to just happen for them. It takes years and years of dedication and obedience. And since the gifts and the calling are irrevocable He says in His Word. That means if God has given you something? Then no man is ever able to permanently remove that from you if He did it and provided it for you. Ask Donald Trump. If you do whatsoever it is all on your own and provide for yourself apart from God and apart from the will plan and purpose from God for your life? That can and will fail you (and others) and also can be removed from you and can result in practically nothing now and everlasting.
Probably the hardest thing about coming into God's kingdom is that you can't do that on your own. You have to receive it like a child even by faith. Obediently trusting the right Parent from Above. And that's very humbling. But the again the humble and meek man is able to overcome Pride of Satan and that same kind of Satanic Pride of man. Nothing else but Jesus Christ Himself is able to consistently overcome the evil one but mans meekness which is not at all to be mistaken for mans weakness nor mans apathy.
As the scripture admonish "Come out of her, so you do not suffer her plagues," but has any listened and obeyed? It is for the traditions of man and the clinging onto a taught falsehood that many have been blinded that they shall not see and be made whole.

Prophecy is everywhere. Negative or positive. I'd rather visualize the positive, thank you. Mark Taylor on April 28, 2011 was told that God wanted Trump to be President to bring America prosperity. I believe him & Him. That we need to be humble in His Eyes and help our fellow men; YES. Prophesy is everywhere: even Native American prophecies say prosperity comes: I think their "White Buffalo" is Trump Time.
"The legend of the White Buffalo Calf Woman remains ever promising in this age of spiritual enlightenment and conscious awareness." "With the return of the White Buffalo it is a sign that prayers are being heard, that the sacred pipe is being honored, and that the promises of prophecy are being fulfilled. White Buffalo signals a time of abundance and plenty." I say, 'Let's stay humbly positive'.

You can "visualize" whatever you want, but it's all a bunch of hooey. What matters is what God said and wants us to do. All the mumbo jumbo bull crap new age weirdness, religious baloney, and buffalo calf woman crap will get you nothing but dead.

I do not understand why we should support Israel. Revelation 2:9 and Revelations 3:9. The current Government in Israel is the synagogue of Satan. Fake Jews who call themselves Jews.. Please educate yourself on Zionism. Please watch the documentary marching to Zion. Youtube has it. Otherwise I agree with everything.
- Keith R. Starkey
Okay, there's that "Zionist" stuff again.
A simple lookup for the word Zionist or Zionism: of political support for the creation and development of a Jewish homeland in Israel (Webster). Thus, any Jew (or anyone for that matter) holding to this belief is a Zionist. I'm not a Jew, but I support Israel as the homeland of the Jews; I am, therefore, a Zionist; again, someone who believes that Israel is the home (of all Israel, not just) the Jews.
As far as your use of "Zionist," do you mean the average, every-day Jew who may love America as much as the next person, who gets out of bed each day and works hard, provides for his/her family, etc., who may also be glad that Jews have a homeland (Israel) again, who may worship the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, who may believe God gave Jerusalem (Zion) as Israel's capital, as noted in the Bible over and over again? Are these the "Zionists" to which you refer?
Wait, do you mean those, who some say, aren't really Jews? Well, then, what about real Jews? Are you including them as well? Or do you hold to that believe that no one's a true, pure-blooded Jew (as best as pure-blooded comes)? Really, no one's a true Jew, as bloodline goes? Seriously? I'm sorry, but simple history flies in the face of the idea that there are no real, true Jews and that some of them are not living today in Israel.
Or do you mean just a very small group of Jews who are part of a bigger group of people known as the Elite, who constantly interfere with world affairs and cause a lot of destruction? If it's just those people to whom you refer, Zionist is not the the proper word to use because they aren't Zionists. They couldn't care less about Jews, Israel or anyone else except themselves and living in their pristing, elite quarters anywhere in the world where it suits their desire.
Since the word Zion originally became equated to the capital of Israel (Jerusalem), and since those Jewish Elite hardly have any desire to return to Israel or concentrate their efforts on saving that country, why, then, call those people Zionists?—again, a true Zionist is nothing more, nothing less than a person who believes Israel should be the homeland of the Jews. You may not agree that Israel belongs to the Jews, but that's what Zionism really is, clear and simple.
So, throwing that "Zionist" word around really gets old when it's not qualified. It's a hackneyed term, an inaccurate use of the word "Zionist," and usually anti-Jewish. So please don't toss that word around anymore without qualifying it. If you're anti-Semitic or what have you, be honest about it.
Jesus was the first Zionist:
"Out of EGYPT, I called my son"
His family and himself then made pilgrimage to Israel
Thats ALL zionism, is. Nothing more.
- Keith R. Starkey
I wouldn't say Jesus was the first Zionist; a Zionist is someone who believes in the return of the Jews (actually all Israel) back to Israel. Long before Jesus came along, many the Jews of those who were exiled from Israel to Babylon looked for a return to the land (based on Jeremiah's prophecy of a 70-year captivity). That longing to return, to see a return, to Israel is Zionism; it was back then, it is today. Obviously, Jesus didn't long for a return to Israel because He was born there, He lived there, and He died there (and, of course, He rose from there). What was happening during His life, though, was occupation: the Romans still had pretty much total say over the Land (and Zionism has incorporated into itself the desire for autonomy of the Land as well as a return to the land).
Your statement, though ("Jew haters have turned Zion into a dirt bath") is definitely the issue. Most people haven't a clue where the word Zion comes from (it's, like, all over the Old Testament! Hello!). Thankfully, it's true meaning will be revealed and fullfilled one day!
His family were some of the first Zionists.
Zionist means making pilgrimage to Israel.
Zion is in the OT and NT hundreds of times.
- Keith R. Starkey
Okay, so let me read back to you, MadJewessWoman, what I hear you saying. If we were in Israel, watching Jesus' mom and dad coming back into the land of Israel from Egypt, we would look at them and say, "Oh, look, some of the first Zionists to make the pilgrimage to Israel." This, basically, is what you're saying. Now does that make any sense at all?
Were we, however, to be in Israel when the Jews were coming back from the Babylonian captivity (based on the prophecies of the return to Israel [Zion] in, say, the book of Jeremiah), we could then say, "Hey, here they come; the first of those making the pilgrimage from captivity in Babylon back into Israel (Zion).
This would be only one of the reasons why it's true that the word Zion is in the OT, and a lot at that. But it's complete error to think that Jesus' parents were some of the first to make a pilgrimage to Israel.
Whats with you? you just want to argue and I dont.
Israel belongs to the Jewish people and always has.
Thats all.
- Keith R. Starkey
What's with me? There's simple common sense–the stuff we use everyday. There's simple common logic–the stuff (like simple common sense) we use everyday…or at least we're supposed to.
You are "arguing" every bit as much as I am; not in a bad way but in a way to make your point. And I've been clear about my points:
Jesus' family was not of the first Jews to make a pilgrimage to Israel; that's just common sense and logic (and I showed how and why).
Zionism is nothing more, nothing less than Jews wanting their home land re-established in Israel and, for many Jews, to come back to it.
What part of this is wrong? People sure love to post their views and then get all hot about it when they are asked to re-think their position…if for not other reason than simple common sense and logic. That's all I have been doing; asking you to rethink what you've said. If you refuse to do that, hey, go for it. But don't expect any decent conversation with anyone who's got any intelligence at all.
I'm done. You get the last shot.

Read Revelation 2:9 and Revelation 3:9.. ask your self who Yeshua is talking about? Judaism is a false religion. Then if you really want or need more proof, Go to youtube and look up Marching to Zion. YOU are misled. The Devil Lies…. PLEASE do your research.
YeShua Ben Yosef walked this earth as a JEW.
"Those who say they are Jews and lie"
That would be you.
- brad
Answer the question….. who is Yeshua talking about in Revelations 2:9 and Revelations 3:9. ANSWER the question…..
- Keith R. Starkey
Answer this question, Brad: Who would anyone be talking about back in, say, 70-120 AD in Israel when many Jews still lived there and were called Jews by both their brothers and the Romans?
Where were those Jews? You are certainly not going to tell us that they weren't Jews, that no one living in Israel then was a Jew, correct?
Again, this has nothing to do with Judiasm, so don't try to play that card. The issue only has only to do with bloodline.
A Jew is a Jew and a person who believes in the JEW named Jesus becomes a 'grafted in' JEW.
You dump on the original root? God will turn on you.
Romans 11
21 For if God did not spare the natural branches, he will not spare you either.
Consider therefore the kindness and sternness of God: sternness to those who fell, but kindness to you, provided that you continue in his kindness. Otherwise, you also will be cut off.
- brad
correct, it is the bloodline. The kharzarians do not have one drop of HEBREW blood in their veins. NOW answer the question… who was Jesus talking about in Revelations 2:9 and 3:9
- Keith R. Starkey
So, you have proof that there's absolutely no Hebrew blood in any Jew today, or at least any Jew living in Israel? You've got the history down cold of all Jewish emigration—where they went, how they lived, who they lived with, how they mingled and reproduced and how they died? You've got this all document and have a solid understanding of the scholarly material on the subject? Or are you just going to tell me to watch another YouTube?
Get real!
- Keith R. Starkey
Okay, first, Zionism has nothing to do, per se, with Judiasm; you're conflating the two, and that's in error. Jews…wanting a homeland in Israel again…wanting to return to Israel: that's Zionism. Plain and simple. What's this got to do with Jesus' remarks about those who say they are Jews but aren't (Rev 2:9, 3:9)?
Finally, I don't need to watch yet another YouTube video about Zionism. This isn't rocket science. It doesn't even call for schooling. It's pretty simple and straight forward. Very hard to be misled if you're not one of those who is anti-Semitic, anti-Jew or anti-Israel.
- brad
wrong…… You need to study Zionism. Go to youtube and find the film marching to ZION.
So, lets see: ALL Jews in Israel are satan??
Govts (at this time in history) do not represent people.
Zionism means Jews moving to Israel.
Jew haters have turned Zion into a dirt bath.
You do not know who is fake from real in the Knesset.
The synagogue of satan is ANY leader in ANY HOUSE OF WORSHIP, Jew OR Christian who is not following God.
Seems like you are expecting the GOVERNMENT of Israel to be a house of worship and that is just plain wrong.
- brad
You totally ignore the bible.. Revelations 2:9 and Revelations 3:9….. The Jews are not God's chosen. God's chosen are those who accept Yeshua. You are believing the lie. Hopefully for your sake you will seek and find the truth. If you die in a car crash tonight, it is to late. PLEASE — go to youtube and look up Marching to ZION. it is 1:45 long documentary. I used to be one of those Israel firster Christians. I was believing the lie.
You dont accept YeShua and hate Jews also.
Your day of this evil is coming to an end.
you have NO love.
- brad
Lady, You named yourself correct… "mad" you have gone mad. You have not addressed the word of God. Written by Yeshua himself. ANSWER the question.. Who is Yeshua/Jesus talking about in Revelations 2:9 and 3:9. Satan has deceived the whole world. And YOU. You have no idea what you are talking about. Back up your argument.
I'm sorry to interject, but he is 110% wrong. the Abrahamic Covenant was unilateral and never was rescinded. God is not through with Israel and the Hebrew people.
Eventually all of the prophets and visioners and nuts will get it right. America will be destroyed. Even the jokers who said this 25 years ago. We really need a bunch of "special, people" to tell us that. ( a ton of sarcasm) Give me a break…
- Emery Richards
God is NOT partial and has no message ONLY for America. He takes no sides except for HIS Earthly organization and servants. Side with and obey Him and flee from religions of man and you are under His tent. Otherwise you're toast.
So true

This has nothing to do with god but rather with money. It's in fact quite simple : scaring gullible people do death and then come with a pseudo solution, like the stuff that lady sales. The same thing was done with the 12.12.2012 hysteria.
- Karl
Pastor Faircloth had two failed prophecies last year. Look it up.
- RecoveringPublicEducated
The western church has lost credibility through hypocrisy.
The emergent church movement was spawned because of evangelical hypocrisy.
Faircloth mentions judgement, worship, fear of the lord, reverence, etc…these are the ones usually found sleeping with the secretary or their hands in the till. He also mentions Ananias & Sapphira by name. We need to get a grasp on how to deal with our sin in a grace environment. Judgement does, and will be performed from time to time. May we truly understand why when it does.
See if this helps shed the light of truth on the Ananias & Sapphira incident. It helped me and gave me hope as to how the church could one day reach this desperate world in true grace and love. Please check this out:
There is no
known repentance of Donald Trump, his Team and family, at the moment. There is no known repentance of the churches
and denominations Trump frequent with at the moment. There is no mentioning of worshipping God
Almighty, daily. His speech for
inauguration is not known to the public and the church at the moment. Hard to improve on that.
My friend went to a Trump rally, he explained that 1 hour was dedicated to pray and also worship and Christian music.
Repentance means change.
Trump used to be totally pro abortion, he is not anymore and has not been for many years.
He is not pro 'gay' marriage either.
God puts leaders in charge of nations, not Pastors.
But, because Trump is more open to change and change for the better, it is the job of the Pastor, Rabbis and so forth to call people into repentance.
Thanks for your input. You are wrong.
The World of this creation is ruled from the Prophet's Chamber. The spiritual things precede the physical. Probably, you come from a Evangelical Tradition, therefore are blind to see and understand the reality of things.
Trump comes from a Evangelical Tradition, and is to a large extend blind to the reality. Great that he did choose a Charismatic to serve with him. Still, it is ridiculous to imagine his little scholars and pastors come anywhere to match me. America is Great only so far. No good to inflate America beyond everything.
Repentance is a daily thing, and there are many things to repent from. A Christian leader together with a team of Christian leaders do well to have representational repentance and also to lead the World to repentance.
You cannot carry sins through in your daily running and imagine, effect, a righteous and even holy government.
Rather than having worship(which is very fine) in his tower or in a closet, Trump can set America in a positive Christian mode and mood everyday by having a small section of Christian worship broadcasted. Doing this is to the glory of Trump Team and God and America(not in this order exactly) instead of to my gain and glory. I do not get a dime from this.
Nope, I am a Jew.
I didnt say anything wrong.
Have a nice day.

Oh so now you can see into the hearts of men like GOD?? REV?? Well you full of B.S.
I bet you still have your 501c3 so you dont pay taxes either on your church income. That means the GOVERNMENT PAYS YOU TO SHUT UP
He, like many Pastors, preachers, teachers want insta-change.
Does not work that way.
Whether people like Trump or not, He is the 1 ordained for this time.
Trump actually IS a repentant person. He was pro abortion at one time, he changed. That type change comes from God.

Open Letter to Mr. Donald
Trump and all others:
Dear Mr. D. Trump
In order to be Christian, believer of Jesus
Christ, one must acknowledge personally and witness to others that Jesus
Christ(Yeshua HaMeshiach, Salvation of God and the Anointed One) is Most High
God, The Son of God, and one's personal Savior.
May you find wholeness and salvation in Christ
Jesus. Shalom.
Mt Rev Dr David Lim
-=-=-=- News that Trump has become a Christian, came
from Dr James C. Dobson

Repentance in the
Revelation of God in holy Christian Scriptures, the New Testament, is not just
changing ones position or action. It
relates to a heart for God Most High and a declaration concerning such and
glorifying God before the World. Part of
such declaration can be through worshipping God that is seen by the public.
Peter said to them, "Repent, and each of you
be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins; and
you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit.
Therefore repent of this wickedness of yours, and
pray the Lord that, if possible, the intention of your heart may be forgiven
but kept declaring both to those of Damascus first,
and also at Jerusalem and then throughout all the region of
Judea, and even to the Gentiles, that they should repent and turn
to God, performing deeds appropriate to repentance.
Those whom I love, I reprove and discipline; therefore be
zealous and repent.
Men were scorched with fierce heat; and they blasphemed the
name of God who has the power over these plagues, and they did not repent
so as to give Him glory. ]
DLim: You
have not actually repented the right way if what you do and the course you
steer does not aim to give God glory.
As the
Leader, the Chief Officer of America,
Trump can have Representative Repentance for America, spiritually and
notionally declare repentance of the many misdeed and sins of the Country he is
head of. This also is important for the Salvation of America.

But you ARE a believer in Yeshua HaMashiach, correct?….and ARE a pursuer of Torah? I started as Southern Baptist, moved to Independent Baptist, then non-denominational, Messianic Judaism, and finally reside with Hebrew Roots :^) ….been a long, strange journey….but I wouldn't change it for anything.
To be candid:
I dont share everything I believe online for a good reason. I am attacked if I don't believe.
I am attacked if I do believe. I probably have 40K comments on Disqus.
I just get tired of the attacks.

Seriously, though. I am attacked sometimes all day, every day.
I figure let my beliefs speak through what I post.

- Aryeh7
Picking up from Disqus.
I appreciate the delicateness of your position. I'm not Jewish, so don't receive criticism from that quarter. Most of the criticism directed at me is from the normative Christian church because of my pro-Torah stance and efforts to reveal Torah in the NT. We are Hebrew Roots and meet with a small number of mostly home school families in the Treasure Coast area of FL. I believe that the Hebrew Roots movement may well be the last revival before Messiah Yeshua returns; i.e., we are witnessing the nations returning to the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. The movement is crossing all boundaries…denominational, geographical, and even religious. I just hope you are a part of this :^)
I don't accept one movement over another. As long as a person accepts the Gospel in their hearts with humility, and peruses a love relationship with God, then we'll sort out all of the details on the way up. 😉
- Aryeh7
I have a friend who says he's a pantheist…everything will "pan out" in the end…but we both know that's not the case:
21 Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven.
22 Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works?
23 And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity (lawlessness). (Mt 7:21-23)
You are correct. It's not what is in your words or deeds, but what is in your heart. Unless you confess your sins with true humility, ask for his forgiveness, accept His gift that He provided, and seek a Love relationship with the Messiah, You will not be accepted by him. It's a lifelong commitment. It's the most serious commitment that a person can make. I think we will be surprised at who is in the Kingdom of Heaven, and who is not. Shalom, and Blessings to you. 🙂
- Aryeh7
The environment surrounding the believer today tests our mettle. Yes, our relationship with Yeshua / Elohim must be with kavanah (sincerity). We not only confess our sins but repent of them. True belief is dangerous…it changes you.
As it well should. James tells us that our works don't save us, but our true relationship with God will be reflected in our works. I thank Him every day for the changes that He is making in me, and continues to make. 🙂
- Aryeh7
"Works" is a hot topic with me and many of those in the Hebrew Roots movement. It's true that the Law cannot save you…only condemn you. That said, however, I have come to the studied conclusion that we keep His Commandments (Torah) not only because we love Him (Jn 14:15) but also because sin is defined as the "transgression of the law" (1 Jn 3:4) and we are to "go and sin no more". There exists an undeniable dichotomy of expression in Scripture…"works" vs. "good works". "Works of the law", or many times just "works" refers to Mishnah / Talmud / Oral Law / tradition of the fathers or elders / etc. "Good works" is the English for the Hebrew, mitzvoth, which means commandments. Thus, these definitions allow us to refine our understanding of the Pauline Epistles and provides further evidence of the struggle between simple Torah pursuance of Yeshua's gospel vs. the doctrine of the "judaizers" that wished to bring newbie Christians under their control through Mishnah / Talmud / Oral Law.

The filthy doctrines of the church is the cause of the condition of the church. The church has rejected its Hebraic roots and the Torah or instruction of righteousness. The entire system of the church with the one man shows and leaders and meeting on Sundays are a part of the filth.

I have still to see the proof that Jesus wanted to start a new religion…. To my knowledge he was a Jewish man following the teachings of the Torah. The Christian Church came after Jesus death and I believe it was started by Paul.
At best the Church holds some illogical beliefs like :
-The Trinity : If G-d is omnipotent and infinite how the hell can he be divided in 3 parts ? That Trinity thing might come from the influence of ancient trinitarian religions… Quite incompatible with Christianity's Hebraic roots.
– The Christian notion that Satan rebelled against G-d : This is nonsense in pure Monotheistic religion. No one can rebel against G-d.
Christianity as it is now does not look like a monotheistic religion but more like dualistic one. Very far away from it's roots.

The revival has started. It's the Hebrew Roots Movement. Pastor Faircloth started well with Zech 14, but failed to complete the prophecy:
16 And it shall come to pass, that every one that is left of all the nations which came against Jerusalem shall even go up from year to year to worship the King, the Lord of hosts, and to keep the FEAST OF TABERNACLES. (Zech 14:16, KJV)
Note that in the Millennial Reign of Yeshua HaMashiach, all of the Torah will be observed by believers, including the blood sacrifices; see Ez 43 – 48.

In 2012 I had a Dream in regards to President Obama being re-elected shortly after that I kept seeing the number 312. I had no idea what it meant. On March 13 Pope Francis was elected as the new pope I believe that the 312 was in connection to him anyone who knows the process of how Popes are selected would understand my rationale here. I wondered during all of the past election what was going on because in my opinion neither candidate was worthy of the office. During the election season I had a dream that people were breaking into homes by passing all of the valuables and stealing food. It occurred to me just today that The Putin/Trump alliance may be one meant for war WWIII. I believe that WWIII may be fought in the middle east as well as against China who may be drug into it via its relationship with North Korea who may provoke the US. Both Russia and the US probably feel that China is getting too powerful economically and instability in the middle east would help boost the Russian economy via their Oil reserves. I believe that Donald Trump may play a major part in preparing the world for the acceptance of the Anti-Christ. A war weary world will be more than ready for a charismatic figure who will promise World Peace.

Yoakum teen shows reserve champion steer at Houston Livestock Show
April 3, 2012 at midnight
Updated April 2, 2012 at 11:03 p.m.
Some girls get cars for their 16th birthdays, while others opt for parties. One Yoakum girl went a slightly different route.
Her big gift came in the form of a win at the Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo.
Emily Kelley won reserve grand champion with her Charolais steer, Monster, and sold him for $250,000 March 17. The next day, she turned 16.
"It was the most perfect sweet 16 present ever," she said with a laugh. "I couldn't have asked for a better gift."
The big-time win came as a surprise to Emily, who had competed at the Houston show since age 8. Although she'd made the sale before, she never won grand or reserve titles.
"When they chose me as reserve overall, I was shaking," she said, explaining she didn't realize at the time she was being broadcast on Reliant Stadium's massive overhead screen. "I didn't really expect it to happen."
It's rare for grand and reserve to both come from the same breed, she said, which added to her surprise.
Emily's 11-year-old brother and sister, John Thomas and Laurel Kelley, also made the sale.
While Emily said she always put work into the animals she raised, she admitted the family tried something different this year with the dark gray steer.
"We usually try to give them more feminine names because we're sweet on them," she said. "They're our pets. But my dad decided he needed a more aggressive name, so we called him Monster."
Even after the fact, Emily said $250,000 was a difficult amount to wrap her mind around. She said it was difficult to imagine anyone paying so much for an animal, let alone an animal she raised.
And, although she only keeps $40,000 of those winnings - the rest goes back to the Houston show for scholarships and the like - she said she hopes to use her money to give back to the Crossroads.
Some will go toward her college fund, she said, while she also plans to donate some to Court Appointed Special Advocates.
"I feel like I should do it," she said. "I've always tried to look for ways to help other people, and they probably need the money more than I do."
Looking ahead, Emily said she will continue competing for the next two years she's eligible.
That's one of the bonuses to winning reserve, she said. While she can compete again next year, the grand champion can't.
But still, she said, she can't help but miss Monster.
"It still tugs at my heart a little bit to see his pen empty," Emily said. "I was sad to see him go. But I know he's being taken care of, and it'll all work out."

A Pictorial Guide to the Jack Russell Terrier
Although Jack Russell Terriers are a "happy" breed, they are NOT as they are portrayed in the movies or TV.
Happy yet prone to Mischief
Although Jack Russell Terriers are a "happy" breed, they are NOT as they are portrayed in the movies, on TV, or other forms of media. Those dogs are professionally trained and handled, and are very obedient only for VERY short periods of time. Celebrity dogs have their needs met by the trainer, and perform their jobs accordingly.
Dirt, Dirt and more Dirt
Jack Russell Terriers are bred to go underground, following scent to locate and bark at quarry until they are dug down to or the quarry bolts. If they do not have an outlet for their natural instincts, they will invent new and fun jobs for themselves, which frequently include guardian of the world and/or their possessions and family, chasing cars, hunting birds, bugs or leaves, or endlessly digging in the soil. While adaptable to a variety of environments, they are first and foremost bred to be hunting dogs. These little dogs require what may seem to be an extraordinary amount of human attention, outdoor activity, exercise, discipline and an understanding and acceptance of their hunting nature.
Bathing and Shedding
After getting dirty, Jack Russell Terriers are not overly fond of taking a bath (use a gentle shampoo). You do not want to bathe them too often as it can lead to dry skin. Please note that the Jack Russell Terriers is NOT a non-shedding breed! Smooth coats shed the most, dropping hair continuously year round. Rough coats maintain the guard and dead coat, requiring manual shedding a few times a year.
Crate Training
A Jack Russell Terriers should always be crate-trained. They can be very destructive if left unattended! Most behavioral problems are due to a lack of companionship, discipline, activity and exercise. If you've only seen perfect, well-behaved JR's, they are ones that were lucky enough to be exercised, well socialized, and trained.
Love to Dig
Jack Russell Terriers love to dig. You might want to say goodbye to your flower bed. They can also dig under, climb or jump over fences; some can climb trees and any height chain link fencing. The traits and skills that make them excellent hunting dogs (i.e., digging, barking, aggressive nature) are often interpreted as bad habits that cause people to give them up.
Aggressive Toward Other Dogs
Jack Russell Terriers are often aggressive with other dogs. Same-sex aggression and aggression towards other breeds of dogs is well documented with this terrier. It is strongly recommended that no more than two Jack Russells (of opposite sex only) ever be permitted to stay together unattended. There have been many instances of terriers being hurt, even killed, by their fellow terriers; even young pups over the age of eight weeks must be carefully monitored. It is imperative that prospective Jack Russell owners understand this part of the terrier's nature.
Big Dog ... Little Body
Jack Russell Terriers are a big dog in a little body. They have the same need (or more!) for exercise as a much larger dog... and the mentality to match -- they think they are at least 150 pounds, and are fearless, often challenging other dogs three times their size. It is said that the courage of the Jack Russell is never in doubt; surely a true statement. They require firm, consistent, responsible handing; they are very intelligent, determined and bold (sometimes to the point of abandon, which could be fatal).
About those Small Animals ...
Jack Russell Terriers are commonly known to harass, injure or kill other small pets, such as cats, birds, rabbits, mice, rats, etc., simply due to their strong natural hunting instinct. Raising a puppy with a cat does not guarantee the cat's life-long safety!
Jack Russell Terriers will not tolerate even unintended mistreatment from a child. They will not put up with typical child handling such as pulling of ears, tails, etc., or taking or "sharing" of the dog's bones, food, toys, etc. Jack Russells are not recommended for households with children under the age of six unless you are previously experienced with JRTs.
Jack Russell Terriers make wonderful parents. However, breeding is risky business and should not be undertaken lightly. Breeders should follow the Breeders Code of Ethics, have their breeding stock BAER and CERF tested, and breed only to JRTCA-registered terriers.

Jack Russell Terriers can become very possessive of their owner or a favorite member of the family or of what they consider to be their personal property if allowed to do so to the point of showing aggressive protective behavior that must be controlled from an early age. However, their funny antics will continually amuse you, their intelligence seems to know no bounds and their assertive nature and boundless energy can at times be overwhelming.
On the Run
Jack Russell Terriers absolutely need a securely fenced yard! Jack Russells will roam due to their hunting instincts.... even if left in an unsecured for a few minutes! You can let them out every day for three years with no trouble.... but one day they will disappear and may never come back. Many JR's have been killed by cars by darting into the road in pursuit of a squirrel, cat, etc.
Jack Russell Terriers are fearless and require firm, consistent discipline. They are extremely intelligent, continue to test their limits throughout their life. More often than not, train their owners before the owner knows what has happened! This ability to train their owners can include displays of aggressive behavior. Their assertive nature must be understood and handled properly!
Long-Term Commitment
Jack Russell Terriers require a long-term commitment to obedience, activity, exercise and entertainment... their unique character, intelligence and high energy level can frustrate you, will undoubtedly entertain you, and can bring you great joy or great grief. If this type of relationship does not appeal to you, then consider another breed.

Courses / DescriptionsEECS 395, 495: Computational Geometry
Quarter OfferedFall : MW 4-5:20 ; Trajcevski
PrerequisitesEECS 214
CATALOG DESCRIPTION: After a brief introduction to numerical computation issues, the course will continue with a sequence of canonical problem settings (e.g., Intersections; Arrangements/Duality), mostly focusing on the combinatorial aspects of the algorithms and the impact of the data structures. Each part will be casted in respective applications settings (GIS; Motion Planning; etc). The last part of the course will present several potpourri-like topics, e.g., Skeletons/Medial Axis; Davenport-Shinzel sequences.
This course fulfills the AI Depth & Theory Depth requirement.
REQUIRED TEXTBOOKS: Computational Geometry, Algorithms and Applications, by Mark de Berg, Otfried Cheong, Marc van Kreveld, and Mark Overmars; 3rd Edition (Springer); ISBN-13: 978-3540779735, ISBN-10: 3540779736.
COURSE COORDINATORS: Prof. Goce Trajcevski
COURSE OBJECTIVES: The main goals of these course can be categorized as follows: (1) It will expose the students to the fundamental ideas of the field of computational geometry; (2) Through discussing application scenarios with different topics, it should provide an insight into how one can recognize the inherent geometric properties of a particular application domain; (3) Through the programming projects, it will enable the students to combine existing libraries for the purpose of developing efficient implementations of various algorithmic solutions. In addition, since part of the course will consist of reading assigned papers on contemporary research topics, it will help the students develop a geometric intuition when approaching research problems.
After finishing the course, the students should be comfortable with reading and understanding of the vast body or research literature that is founded on certain computational geometry results. They will also be able to reason about inherent trade-offs when selecting particular data structures representing the geometric features of a given domain, and will be comfortable in developing their own implementations, while capitalizing on the existing libraries.
ASSIGNMENTS: The course will have two homeworks, two projects, a midterm and an in-class presentation[1]. There will be no final exam, however, the students will have to submit the reports for the 2nd project and, if needed, do a demo presentation throughout the finals week.

Barcelona legend Xavi has announced his intention to leave the club at the end of the season to join Qatari club Al Sadd.
The midfielder has been with the Catalans for 24 years, since joining La Masia as an 11-year-old, and has made over 750 appearances for the first team during that time – more than any other player in the club's history.
Although he has featured 41 times so far for Barca in their La Liga-winning campaign, he has been used as a substitute more often than a starter under Luis Enrique.
"I am announcing my departure from the club this season," Xavi told reporters at a press conference on Thursday. "This decision is final and difficult.
"The club offered me a renewal, but I had already made my decision. I think it's time to leave Camp Nou now.
"I'll continue playing at Al Sadd, which is an exciting prospect. I have sign a deal for two seasons, but there's an option for a third.
"I'll also be able to develop myself as a coach and sporting director in Qatar."

1. Why does Claire steal from the Chens? Why does she stop doing it?
2. Part of Claire's attraction to Will is that he allows her to be someone different than she had always been. Have you ever been drawn to a person or a situation because it offered you the opportunity to reinvent yourself?
3. The amahs are a steady but silent presence throughout the book. Imagine Trudy and Will's relationship and then Claire and Will's affair from their point of view and discuss.
4. Trudy was initially drawn to Will because of his quiet equanimity and Will to Claire because of her innocence. Yet those are precisely the qualities each loses in the course of their love affairs. What does this say about the nature of these relationships? Would Will have been attracted to a woman like Claire before Trudy?
5. What is the irony behind Claire's adoration of the young Princess Elizabeth?
6. Were Dominick and Trudy guilty of collaboration, or were they simply trying to survive? Do their circumstances absolve them of their actions?
7. Mary, Tobias's mother, and one of Will's fellow prisoners in Stanley, does not take advantage of her job in the kitchen to steal more food for her son. Yet she prostitutes herself to preserve him. Is Tobias's physical survival worth the psychological damage she's inflicting?
8. Did Trudy give her emerald ring and Locket to Melody? How much did Melody really know?
9. How do Ned Young's experiences parallel Trudy's?
10. Did Will fail Trudy? Was his decision to remain in Stanley rather than be with her on the outside—as he believes—an act of cowardice?
11. Would Locket be better off knowing the truth about her parentage?
12. What would happen if Trudy somehow survived and came back to Will? Could they find happiness together?

Having a daughter studying at Georgetown means I have a steady stream of interesting reading coming into my email box. Jackie loves studying in Washington DC. Here's an excerpt from something Jackie just sent that is thought-provoking:
This is from her psychology textbook, Psychology: A Concise Introduction, Second Edition by Richard A. Griggs:
"Availability in memory also plays a key role in what is termed a dread risk. A dread risk is a low-probability, high-damage event in which many people are killed at one point in time. Not only is there direct damage in the event, but there is secondary indirect damage mediated through how we psychologically react to the event. A good example is our reaction to the September 11, 2001, terrorist attacks. Fearing dying in a terrorist airplane crash because the September 11 events were so prominent in our memories, we reduced our air travel and increased our automobile travel, leading to a significantly great number of fatal traffic accidents than usual. It is estimated that about 1,600 more people needlessly died in these traffic accidents (Gigerenzer, 2006). These lives could have been saved had we not reacted to the dread risk as we did. We just do not seem to realize that it is far safer to fly than to drive. National Safety Council data reveal that you are 37 times more likely to die in a vehicle accident than on a commercial flight."

About this font family
OHG is pleased to announce the release of Tynne 2.0, now with two new out-line, drop-shade fonts which work independently as attractive display faces in their own right or one layer of a two layer, chromatic typeface. In addition, kerning and letter spacing have been adjusted and improved to ensure all characters will line up correctly when layered.
Tynne, Is a strong, wedge-serif, condensed display font. Deep "ink traps", subtly varied forms and open counters bring to its even colour and pleasingly regular rhythm a bit of syncopation and sparkle making it ideal for packaging, elegant yet informal headlines and posters. More…
The name, loosely derived from an archaic spelling of tin - with a 'y' thrown in for fanciness and to give the word a more interesting shape. It is a natural fit to the snipped feel of the sharp, angular, burred edges of the serifs, the open counters and deep notch-like ink traps which are all reminiscent of box patterns hand-cut from sheet metal with a pair of tin-snips and more than a few little cuts on the fingers.
Tynne is an OpenType facet with Post Script outlines and 591 glyphs. OpenType features include over 70 standard and discretionary ligatures (and digraphs), three sets of figures, alternate characters, small caps and swashes.
Russell and OHG are proud to acknowledge the assistance and contributions of fellow type designer, James Arboghast.

I just came across this web site yesterday: https://pieceofmindful.com/2016/04/23/sir-faul/. I don't know if anyone has visited it yet but I have to say it is very interesting.
The guy who owns the site keeps on calling the ones he compares to each other 'twins'. I don't know if he's afraid to say the word 'clones' or if he just feels that all the personalities that he compares to each other are literally twins. I think he's just afraid to use the 'c' word rather than just being naive.
The guy's comparison's may not be to everyone's liking: he splits the photos down the middle then puts the two halves together which may or may not turn someone off, but for me it sure showed me that his heart is right in trying to show the underhandedness that's going on in the entertainment world, even if his work isn't high tech. It still shows what's happening. It's worth a visit or three.
I can't get enough of what he's showing !

Sunday's pitching matchups, notes
Red Sox affiliates
1:00 p.m.
Binghamton Mets – Cory Mazzoni (1-1, 1.98 ERA, 1.24 WHIP, 14 Ks)
at Portland Sea Dogs – Drake Britton (3-3, 4.35 ERA, 1.50 WHIP, 40 Ks)
NOTE: The Sea Dogs (24-16) can put another game between themselves and the BMets (23-19) before New Hampshire rolls into Hadlock Field for four games starting on Monday. Today's starter Drake Britton has struck out 5 in each of his last three starts and had a season-high 7 Ks versus Binghamton in a losing cause back on April 16th. On average, Britton is allowing a little over 7.5 hits and walks per game in his eight outings this season.
1:05 p.m.
Indianapolis Indians – Gerrit Cole (3-1, 2.55 ERA, 1.73 WHIP, 36 Ks)
at Pawtucket Red Sox – Allen Webster (2-0, 2.52)
NOTE: This is hands down the pitching matchup of the day, as two of the Top 100 prospects in the game square off at McCoy Stadium. MLB.com had Gerrit Cole, the 2011 #1 overall pick, as the 8th best prospect in the game heading into this season. He has thrown 6+ innings in each of his last four starts. Allen Webster, more moderately ranked at just #66 overall, will be looking to string together his third straight win. In his two May starts he is 2-0 with a 1.64 ERA and 14 Ks.
4:05 p.m.
Frederick Keys – Eduardo Rodriguez (4-2, 3.35 ERA, 1.21 WHIP, 38 Ks)
at Salem Red Sox – Mike Augliera (4-0, 3.12 ERA, 1.19 WHIP, 27 Ks)
NOTE: With four of their last five games going the way of the win column, Salem (19-21) looks to sweep Frederick out of town today. 'Old reliable' Mike Augliera hits the hill for start number 8 on the year. He had his best start of the season last Tuesday at Carolina, picking up the win after allowing just 3 hits on the day in 6 innings. In three May starts Augliera has allowed just 3 earned runs.
Charleston RiverDogs – Dan Camarena (0-2, 6.75 ERA, 1.60 WHIP, 23 Ks)
at Greenville Drive – Austin Maddox (0-4, 8.51 ERA, 1.76 WHIP, 28 Ks)
NOTE: There is still hope that the Drive (13-29) can pull off a .500 record in May, but they will need to win 12 of their last 13 games of the month. Austin Maddox will be looking for a positive start in what has been a rough season for the youngster from the University of Florida. In 5 starts he has allowed 19 earned runs and 31 hits in 19 innings.
New England teams
6:35 p.m.
New Hampshire Fisher Cats – Marcus Walden (2-4, 2.96 ERA, 1.51 WHIP, 23 Ks)
at New Britain Rock Cats – B.J. Hermsen (1-3, 4.21 ERA, 1.71 WHIP, 15 Ks)
NOTE: The Fisher Cats (21-22), winners of five of their last six games, will look to even-up their record at .500, a place they haven't seen since April 19th. On the flip side the Rock Cats (20-22), who were at one point recently just a game back of first place, will look to snap a season-long six game losing streak. The Fisher Cats have Marcus Walden making his ninth start of the year, fresh off of his best outing of the season. On Tuesday, in 7 2/3 innings, he allowed just 2 hits and 2 walks and struck out 6 in a win over Portland. Rock Cats starter B.J. Hermsen wasn't as lucky last Tuesday, getting tagged with a loss against Bowie although he did not allow any earned runs in 6 innings.

NKY Hates Heroin Saturday will honor people who've died from heroin at its 5K race with a wall of their photographs.
Families and friends are encouraged to bring pictures of their loved ones to display on the wall – and bring easels for large photos – for a memorial service to begin at 8 a.m. at Simon Kenton High School in Independence.
The family of Nicholas Specht, who died of a heroin overdose Aug. 8, started its race against heroin shortly after he died in his parents' Fort Thomas home.
The 5K race that Specht's second cousin, Kim Norton, conceived of last fall has grown beyond the family's expectations, said his grandfather, Noel Stegner of Fort Thomas.
Pre-registered runners and walkers totaled 1,135 on Friday, said Gina Stegner, public relations chair for NKY Hates Heroin, the family's grass-roots effort to end the epidemic that has plagued the nation, in particular, Northern Kentucky. Day-of-race registration is set to begin at 7 a.m.
The race will begin and end at the high school, at 11132 Madison Ave., which is Ky. 17. Lanes on the south will be blocked for runners and walkers.
Independence Police urge participants to have patience with traffic and arrive early for the event. Police Capt. Tony Lucas said people should park in surrounding lots, because there will be no parking room at the school lot.
The race is set to begin at 8:30 a.m.

"It's just physics," says the girl, and she draws a diagram on the white board to explain the way light refraction works underwater. "There are equations you can do to show how it works, but really… it's just physics."
She's Olivia Humes, a junior in high school, confident, serious in her adult haircut, and totally adept with the science behind light refraction. I am gobstruck. "That girl… she is going to SPACE," I say to Gwen, who's seated next to me in the little 30 person classroom attached to the Theodor Jacobsen Observatory.
"She is AWESOME," responds Gwen. "It's JUST physics. No big deal."
The observatory was initially located in downtown Seattle and then moved to this treed corner by the university's northern gate; it's been in the current location since 1895. It wasn't really meant for stargazing, it was a teaching facility. Western Washington's unpredictable skies make the whole pursuit a gamble. The sometimes occupants of this tiny stone building — it's open twice a month — educate the general public in addition to astronomy students.
"You caught all the awesome band names, right?" asks Gwen. "Alexander's Dark Band? I mean, come on. It's perfect."
"42 degrees for purple," I reply, referring to the angle at which light has to hit water to refract the purple in a rainbow. I have just learned this; I am only pretending to understand it.
The evening's program is run by the Seattle Astronomical Society. They staff the dome and provide the speakers and set out little models of the planets in our solar system. Everyone's welcome, there are tattooed teenagers and a kid in pajamas and cowboys boots and my posse of three artist types who are just curious (in all the interpretations of that word). I have been enticed with the promise of seeing Saturn and looking through the historic telescope; my nerdy friends join me because they like those things too.
The scope is not working properly and the sky does not cooperate. I don't care.
I don't care that I can't see Saturn because when I crack open the cabinets in the pillar room underneath the telescope, I see Theodore Jacobsen's notebooks, his observations written in tiny elaborate script.
The astronomer who operates the telescope opens a little glass panel and explains how the tracking device on it works, comparing it to an ice skater speeding up and slowing down by raising and lower her arms.
In the transit room, where another telescope is used to calculate the time with extreme accuracy, the astronomer with inexplicable hair explains how to navigate by the stars. "If you know what time it is and what star you're seeing, you know where you are," he says. "I see these boats going through the locks and they have no idea how to calculate their location by the sky anymore."
A third astronomer — the place is filled with astronomers — gracefully answers the question about why this little observatory is in a location surrounded by trees. "Oh, this is a memorial forest, these trees are planted for the fallen of World War I. Of course, they were a lot smaller then, they wouldn't have blocked the sky."
Outside, a serious young man in a "BAZINGA" t-shirt tending to the 7000 dollar telescope assures us we have the entire summer to see Saturn. A little boy looks at Deneb, a star in the East and says, "What if it's surrounded by exo-planets! And they're populated by aliens! And they're all made up of squishy bits!" I laugh out loud and his father, a big man with a shaved head says, "We're reading War of the Worlds at home. It's very… exciting," in a posh British accent.
Another astronomer, a woman with straight gray hair, explains the structure of a star group that's part of the Big Dipper and when I look through the telescope, I see exactly what she's described, a yellow star and a bluer, smaller one, right next to it.
I don't care that I can't see Saturn or look through the beautiful old scope because there is plenty to see and the people are so diverting. Everything makes me gleeful. There's a model of the earth suspended in a cage of orbiting rings in the transit room. "Create a diversion," I say to field trip friend Ed, "I want to steal that thing."
Up in the dome, the astronomer who would be operating the scope if it worked explains the Milky Way and what it's like to see far away galaxies. "All those fancy gorgeous photos, they're taken with long exposures and perfect optics. For us, they're just dim fuzzies. We call them dim fuzzies because that's all you get to see."
"Dim fuzzies," I mouth to Ed, who is standing opposite me in the dome. "Another awesome band name."
I like the slice in the dome that lets the light in and the huge ball bearings that the dome spins on when you pull the ropes that rotate the dome itself. I like the tight winding staircase, and my companions who are in a perpetual state of amusement. "What are you kids doing in there!?" mock my friends, independently of each other as I rifle through the cabinets in the pillar room.
"Look, this is where they keep their tin foil!" I say.
"This is clear cedar," says Gwen, pointing at the shelves. "It's, I dunno, 70 dollars a foot?"
"My brother has my telescope," says Ed later, when we're standing on the grass where the other scopes are set up.
"You're going to need to get that back," I respond.
The stars in the cluster of the Big Dipper are Mizar and Alcor, they rotate around each other. I see them as one star, but through the big white telescope on the grass, I see them as two stars. They're not Saturn. I don't care.
The girl is now outside in the dark summer night. I hear one of the visitors talking to her. "You were great. I'm going to tell your mom how great you were."
"That girl is going to SPACE," I say again. "That is going to be awesome."
The Theodore Jacobsen Observatory is open to the public twice a month. It's free. You should go.
