True Peace and Calm.

Tom's Journal.

From what I have read about Chuck Baldwin, he seems to be an OK guy and a good biblical Christian. He even emailed me today.

My wife had so much discomfort,pain, trouble breathing this morning that I took her to the hospital at 10:00 AM today, but the "doctors" released her about 5 hours later! They said it was 'an ongoing thing/ problem'.... Ha! We don't know all the facts behind the scenes, but it sounds kind of fishy, and my mind is trying to figure it all out. 'Could they be jumping on the new obama-care wagon prematurely-- and kicking old people out giving them a pill and go home to die ??' Could the health insurance be giving the hospital directions about when a patient should be "cut-off?"
Sharon's feet, ankles and lower legs were very swelled up, and she had trouble breathing with fluid in the lungs. Maybe she will get more info when she sees her lady doctor on Monday.

I am going to build an easel to prop up my study books in my small wood shop in the basement soon and probably use Oak--then just Polyurethane to let the pure rich Oak shine thru . I already made one that really helps me, but I need another. The books that I study are so huge and clumsy [like that new Noah Webster 1827 Dictionary I just got] that it would be a smart idea to hold them up at an angle to make it easier top use/ read. I get much personal satisfaction when I 'create' something out of wood or steel. I like to work as fast as I can without making a mistake. But with power tools, you MUST obey the safety rules or get hurt! My Dad taught me all about safety on the farm. One of our neighbors, Joe Kogis, lost most of his fingers trying to clear his clogged corn picker while he still had it in gear--with the 'power take off' still engaged. All the surrounding neighbors held a 'benefit dance' in some one's barn to scrape up money for the family and medical bills. That was back in the '60's.

I was thinking about the scriptures in Matthew 24 concerning what Jesus said about the 'Last Days' and the composite 'Sign' that would high light the generation of our Deliverance by the Lord Jesus Christ. Verse 7b says, "and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and EARTHQUAKES, in divers places. [8] All these are the beginning of sorrow. [9] Then shall they deliver you up to be afflicted, and shall kill you: and ye shall be hated of all nations for my name's sake."

You know that even from ancient Rome, etc., people have been documenting big time, serious disasters like earthquakes, frequency, damage and loss of life. But I doubt if Big News and Media bother to draw any conclusions from the recent frequency of recent EARTHQUAKES... let's say in the past 5-10 years compared to the last 100 years. That would prove to be interesting. I know that most true Christians are keeping an eye on this sort of thing! Remember, the older we grow -- the more we can compare. Unfortunately, I think that the younger generation of 30 and below are generally 'LOST' in their ignorance of Bible things and Prophecy. I KNOW from speaking to our old teachers at class reunins that taught us in High School, that 1967 was a 'pivotal year' when things changed over night, and most respect, honor, dignity, and morals got tossed out the window. So said Mr. Joe Kaster, who taught English, and was a fine football, track and wrestling coach, at Waterford High School when I was there, those years from 1964- 1967.

Strangely enough, I have more peace of mind and tranquility NOW -- more than ever, even with the 'world on fire' with all rumors of war, crime, corruption, and the failing economy. I can be thankful for the Bible and Holy Spirit for the calm in my heart and mind. Do all of my friends and readers have that same CALM? If a nervous wreck like me can have peace and calm -- others can too. Just give up your pride and selfish human lusts and desires, and then acquire God's mind on things and start doing His Will. And there is only ONE place that I know of to find that precious information...... Guess where!

I have heard pros and cons on Chuck Baldwin, and this post does NOT support or champion him or his views --- at this point in time. But this info is sure exciting and explosive, in my opinion! I intend to check Chuck Baldwin out some more to make sure he is in agreement with my 'inner core' belief system -- pure, biblical Christianity. However, these mentioned political happenings and 'executive orders' signed by obama are kind of scary and some what hidden by the "News Media," are they not? I smell a rat.... Beware. Keep your eyes wide open.

Enjoy.

Winter in 1947- Milwaukee.

My Mom gave me a bunch of old news clippings and old pictures the other day, and this picture shows how everyone banded together to get things done in the 'good old days' in Old Milwaukee, 1947, shortly before my parents got married. My Dad was a WW-2 Navy man, stationed at Great Lakes Naval Base, in IL. Neighbors would help one another with out any thought of getting paid or rewarded, and times were civil, with dignity, honor and kindness.

I DON'T want to re-live the past, 'good old days' but I feel hurt that America has slipped so far away into the "me first" selfish, greedy, immoral, corrupt nation that we now have-- some what due to poor political administrative and congressional policy making, etc, IMHO.

Many Americans are still duped into thinking that some how MAN can dig our way out of our present situation... and I was one of them until a few years ago when the blinding scales fell off my eyes. Haughty, proud, rebellious MANKIND just won't give up and acknowledge the fact that it's God's 'ball game' and only He can clean things up to see the light and make things straight. This is not so much Bible teaching/ preaching -- but rather plain old TRUTH and REALITY! It may seem TOO SIMPLE for all the 'smart' elite leaders and hood winked people who have been brain washed by corrupt, godless, New Age, heathen, propaganda and godless modern day education.

And what a 'quantum leap' we Christians have experienced in just this last year! Wow! Christian InterNet, radio, books, Bloggers and Christian authors/ friends have helped me 'see' the larger, BIG Picture that is unraveling right in front of our very eyes! It's kind of like an equation in chemistry class, where one thing has to happen before another thing can take place with a catalyst, etc. And God reveals these things/ events to His servants/ followers on earth while all the rest of humanity just continues with their sinking ship rat race. Truly unbelievable... but exciting, like going to a 3-D action movie at the theater such as Avatar.


We got our new shipment of different KJV Bibles and the HUGE- Noah Webster 1928 Dictionary yesterday via post. I told Sharon, 'if I only had these resources 30 years ago, they could have changed my life and spared me a lot of hurt and wrong moves, such as falling into a false religious cult in 1972 when I got home from Vietnam and wasting 22 years of my life !!' But I also learned that God needed to humble me and shape me by stripping me of my deadly, God dishonoring, spiritually dangerous Pride. Did you all know that you can be the smartest, most gifted, man or woman alive, but if you have too much dangerous PRIDE [being so full of yourself], the Lord might "put you on the shelf" [according to Charles F. Stanley] until you get your mind straight, so that He can finally 'use you' for His own godly purpose?? God will use different, strong measures to shock you out of your wrong headed evil, selfish, prideful ways. He could use finance, job loss, failure, failed relationships, spiritual circumstances to make you REALIZE that you NEED TO OBEY AND FOLLOW HIM! I figure that the Lord had to use a big hammer and chisel on me before He finally blessed me and used me for His holy purpose. Now I am unafraid of death and welcome the Rapture and Heaven... where as I didn't want to die until I got right with God-- and was very afraid of going to Hell. I understood what extreme human suffering, deprivation, loneliness, being spiritually bankrupt, in spiritual darkness, emotional distress and depression, PTSD, was all about.

Maybe God let me go through all of that so that I could someday reach out to other people and offer them the correct insight and HELP for their similar problems-- through my own personal experiences! Indeed, if I can help a few people come to know the good and gracious Lord Jesus Christ, all the suffering will have been worth it!

If you have some personal, deep, hurtful challenges/ problems, you may always email me, privately, to share your concerns and troubles with me via email: tschuckman@aol.com
I am just a simple, but well educated man, in the Bible, Christian soldier, who wants to help other find the spiritual Paradise that all real Christians have in knowing and following Jesus, and gaining true Wisdom from the Holy Spirit in serious Bible study, prayer and visiting with other believers.

Have a good day, dear friends. Again, thank you all for your encouragement and prayers for my wife, Sharon. I worry about her a lot, because she is my constant companion and soul mate... and she is a great cook.

Warm Regards,
Tom

Middle East Prepares for War.

Tom's Journal.
http://tomschuckmanjournal.blogspot.com/
tschuckman@aol.com



Hi Friends and Readers.
I will never say or advise: 'Just stop living and crawl in a cave to hunker down for the storm.' I would never say, 'Don't bother getting your teeth fixed or deny yourself major surgery or a doctor's care or painting your house, etc.' But in the same breathe, this shouldn't be "Party Time" and 'let the good times roll!' My Dad used to tell me, 'if a man works hard all year, he shouldn't skimp on his vacation.' When my 3 kids were growing up and AMC [American Motors Corp-- started: 11-7-72] would shell out 3-4 weeks of accrued vacation pay in late Spring-- if you had the seniority to claim that much money, I would pay up/ pay off a few remaining bills, but also set aside enough for at least a one week family vacation, going camping up North-Wisconsin, go to Florida, etc. Six Flags America, visiting friends in Alabama, South Carolina, and we would also have a big 'family meeting' to get the whole family's input.

But when you 'hear the sound of war drums' and you get that 'gut feeling' that something is going to break loose, the wise thing to do, IMHO [in my humble opinion] is to save/ hide cash at home in a strong, fire proof safe, buy commodities, batteries, candles, canned goods, distilled water, and MAKE A FAMILY DISASTER PLAN. THINK AHEAD AND PLAN! I am also a big believer in trading/ swapping favors and work/ labor with other trusted friends/ Christians. The "Barter System." 'Cast your bread upon the water' type of thing, and networking/ making good friends you can trust in hard times. That SHOULD BE THE NORM in real, honest, Christian church circles and communities! But... watch out for fake Christians, wolves, CHINO's who have infiltrated the churches .... please.


In years and wars past, you would hear/ read about enemy troops massing at borders -- they would be an eminent SIGN of trouble/ precursor to war. Now in the Middle East, much trouble is brewing with Iran, Syria, Turkey, Russia, Lebanon, PLO, and Israel, and the clandestine making of nukes/ atomic weapons and rockets by rogue nations. The WH and it's impotent cabinet members and emissaries have no teeth or pro-active solutions, and love to cut the heart and soul out of the military-- even demoralizing it with the new open sodomite rules and regs! Recipe for DISASTER, and their toothless, stupid "Sanctions" are a sham and insult to the American people and the world!!
I think that it's a huge stupid mistake for anyone to think that the coming Middle Eastern war won't have rippling, negative effects on Europe and America!! Anything involving the flow of oil to the USA has to be taken seriously, NOT TO MENTION the historic, Biblical prophetic rendering, fulfillment/ warning. Our biggest worry SHOULD BE the divine curse of God upon ANYONE who harms or abandons ISRAEL! But all serious bible students/ Christians KNOW which way the USA is headed and what the godless Liberal/ Progressive Program is, don't we? And it's worth knowing now that it's not just the obama/ Dims-- but also the Progressive Republicans too. Everyone will thus suffer and be hurt in some way.


It has taken me a long time [too long!] to figure all of this out finally, but I believe that I see the 'big picture' now, and have my eyes set on the prize of heaven, and constant study and tweaking of recent events that point so clearly at Bible prophecy fulfillment. I rejoice with other close friends, church members, bible students who share their mindset and encouragement in their Blogs/ Journals and Christian web sites.
THANK YOU ALL FOR SHARING YOUR BIBLICAL INSIGHT with your comments and emails, dear Friends!


My wife, Sharon is going down hill again, with swollen feet, ankles, legs and her defibrillator, problems breathing, chronic fluid in the lungs and congestive heart failure. She claims that she is taking all her prescribed meds and doing the right things... She says that her lungs build up with fluid when she lays down flat in bed-- and ends up sitting upright in her EZ chair all night in the living room. I just don't know what else to do! I am not looking for sympathy nor crying in my beer... just sharing the facts as I see them, and reporting. I know that this on going cycle will result in Sharon returning to the Hospital sooner than later. I buy and feed Sharon the BEST fresh fruit and veggies every single day, and also take her out to eat. But she is getting very weak, can hardly walk, short of breath and full of pain constantly.
I ask for your prayers again-- for both of us. I give Sharon credit for reading, studying her KJV Bible day and night, writing notes, etc, and she is getting to be very smart and savvy about the Scriptures. My Journal posting may get to be sporadic as her needs get more needy. Thank you all for your support and help/ kindness.

Warm Regards,
Tom

Culture of Death and Fraud.

Tom's Journal.
http://tomschuckmanjournal.blogspot.com/
tschuckman@aol.com

Sweet, poetic Justice! Some times we just wish that the God of the Bible would squeeze the hearts of godless, unbelieving Socialists and Medical/ "Scientific" Frauds. But that's not God's way... He would rather that people find their way to Him, repent, confess their sins and change their ways-- study the Bible and apply it, and surrender their lives to the Lord Jesus.

How very fortunate for many of us-- like me! If God allowed me to die/ get killed more than 20 years ago, I would be cursed for eternity... Ouch! It gets me when some ignorant punk / person sneers that he looks forward to going to hell-- so he can drink, smoke grass, do drugs and party with his old buddies...HA! There will be no parties in hell, but pain and sorrow forever! I keep asking people, 'why would you go through a hard, poor, disenfranchised life on Earth... and then end up in hell after that ??' It doesn't have to be that way! Unless they think that having extreme pride, selfishness and stupidity becomes them so much that they REFUSE to accept the Lord Jesus Christ as their personal Savior. Does it mean so much-- acting like some macho, stubborn nut job to forfeit Paradise with Christ forever? Unfortunately, that WILL be the case for most of humanity, as the Bible clearly predicts... and look at Bible history-- and even God's Chosen People, the Jews. They, for the most part, refused the Son/ Messiah too.

I am truly amazed at how much knowledge I thought I knew, ten- thirty years ago-- with now, January 2010! And I still learn more almost every day. Some folks speculate that we only use about 3% of our brains at the time of our death on earth. We were MADE/ CREATED to live forever! And we will -- but it's only a question of WHERE.

If you believe/ share the same ideas and sentiments as I do and like my Blog posts-- please share them with others, and also comment. Many of you tell me via email that you enjoy and read my on-line Journal, but never comment right below the article. Hey! This is STILL America you know and we still have relative Freedom, so what's to be afraid of...LOL? I only ask that you leave your REAL NAME, or send it to me personally via email. I try to comment on your Blogs too, but I get snowed under with my personal life and taking care of my disabled wife. Best to email you recent posts to me and be sure to get my attention that way, please. Thank you!

Warm Regards,
Tom

The Science of Fraud and Its Culture of Death and Tyranny

Posted: 22 Feb 2010 08:59 AM PST

By Bill Wilson. Word of Life MinistryJesus tells us in Matthew 24:4, "Take heed that no man deceive you." Yet, Americans have been living in deception for generations. Think about it. The public school system has been teaching evolution since the 1960s. If evolution, in its most sincere sense were true, why are we not seeing apes turning into men these days? People become so angry over the mere



Noah Dictionary-- GOLD MINE.

Tom's Journal.
http://tomschuckmanjournal.blogspot.com/
tschuckman@aol.com

Wow! The answer to my prayers for many years! It's not a "bible Dictionary" per say, but at least I will be able to look up and understand what the translators of the KJV are saying -- using that older English language. All languages 'change' and take on different meaning through the years. Take the examples of words like: 'Gay', Cool, tough, fierce, etc, etc. Thank you, Lord!


Ah yes! I Just went through the same thing. I just bought an 1828 Noah Dictionary and it has definitions of the old, archaic 1610-11, Shakespearean English used in the KJV Bible. It really is helping me as I read the KJV as I also am needing to get up to speed!

Webster's American Dictionary of the English Language, 1828 Edition


ISBN: 091249803X
ISBN-13: 9780912498034

I know it is a little expensive, but it is worth every penny and seems very well made also!

Kevin

I need your help and advice, please. I sometimes need help in understanding archaic KJV words... and remember that this beautiful, poetic Bible was written in Shakespear's time, about 1610-11. Is there ANY book that can help me glean the proper meaning of the old words to bring me up to speed?? Example: the term 'shambles' in old English meant 'meat market.' I have learned bits and pieces through the years with use, but just think about all the new and younger people who want to study the bible but are handicapped by their ignorance of the old English terms.

I have snagged some great deals at the web site: christianbooks.com

Discussion of newer Bible translations and revisions.

Tom's Journal.
http://tomschuckmanjournal.blogspot.com/
tschuckman@aol.com

Here is an ongoing discussion with my friend in Christ, Kevin, concerning the corruption of "modern bible revisions." I have been fighting this issue in my own mind for many years and am trying to be as balanced and open minded as I can. For the most part, I am taking Kevin's side and view point.

My 'old' objection to the KJV [KING JAMES BIBLE VERSION] is that it is harder to understand for the untrained, less educated, functionally illiterate reader. I think that 50 - 150 years ago Americans could prob. understand it better-- but our school system has been "dumbed down" for a multitude of reasons. Even in college, many students have to take extra 'bone-head' courses to brush up/ get up to speed in their reading skills. Just like: I LOVE computers/ word processors -- but they lull a person into using "spell check" too often, enough to make the brain 'spell lazy'... just like 'speed dialing' may lead you forget the phone numbers... LOL.

Please do NOT throw all your other bible versions in the trash! This info is put out to give you the TRUTH as we see it into what corrupt things have been done to GOD'S OWN WORD..... and what a pity. It's kind of like a Fox News/ Glenn Beck expose..... something you NEED to know and possibly act on. Please check out Kevin's Blog as we do more deep investigations, and I promise to re-post his material and resources in a timely manner.

I will tell you one thing for sure -- I HATE lies, and God hates lies too! Satan is the father of the lie.... [See: Garden of Eden--Genesis] And messing with God's Word carries a nasty curse from God! [See: end of Revelation] And really, it shouldn't be that much of a surprise that these 'bad changes' have occurred, as Satan has his henchmen and women on earth who do his biding to bring down more human life and souls in these last days. Just like the JW-cult bible [New World Translation] that has been doctored and 'revised' to mislead their sect to swallow things that are NOT true/ un-scriptural --- they have taken away the Deity of Christ, and much more! The Mormons added an extra book on the end of their bible. The Muslims have also added the Qu'ran to the end of the existing 'regular' Old and New Testaments of the Bible that Christians have-- that super-cedes the rest! Did you all know these things?? It's better that we learn about these things now rather than latter.

The pocket bibles that I have been giving away at the Milwaukee VA and other places [and people all over] were all KJV Gideons Bibles anyway, and I surely have plenty of those fine, beautiful, poetic, true Holy Scriptures KJV's in my possession. Hey.. live and learn.

And yes-- I know full well someone could kill me for posting these truths. In fact, I would say that many heathen [and un-believers] would LOVE to murder me IF THEY COULD! Then I would be a Martyr -- and 'Heaven is my Home.'


I hope this news doesn't blow your gasket or wreck your day. I just bought a few NASB [New American Standard Bibles] a month ago, but today I ordered 3 more King James Versions. My wife has been using the KJV all along....Ha! Smart girl...

All I am saying is that I personally want/ demand the most accurate, truthful, unadulterated Bible there is.


Warm Regards,
Tom


Tom it is pretty bad. I am working on showing this later as I am concentrating on exposing the ESV and NIV.

For the NASB, grab your KJV and look at the following:

Luke 4:4. The NASB leaves out a very important part of the verse. We all know that man cannot live on bread alone. But what does man need to live? It isn't water.

Next Luke 11:2-4. Now remember Luke was the most detailed writer, yet this passage is leaving out some very important pieces in all MODERN translations. If my memory serves me, Luke was involved in law and very educated. He was very precise in his writings. And as we believe the Bible is the inspired Word of God, then why are certain words ( important words ) missing from this passage?

Which father is the He referring to, could it be the pope? Who are we supposed to be delivered from? With the modern translations you cannot answer that question. But with the KJV you can.

Next goto Matthew 27:35 and you will see that the modern translation removes the prophecy of Christ, therefore trying to set up Jesus as just a man that was crucified , instead of the one prophesied in scriptures.

Next look at Luke 2:33. This is dangerous as it makes Christ seem he was just a man with an earthly father.

NASB: His father and mother were amazed.
KJV Joseph and his mother.

The KJV is correct because Jesus Christs father is God, not Joesph.

Now this is where things start to get scary.

Goto 1st John 5:7-8 Here you will see a play on words about the Trinity. The modified verse 8 to make it sound like verse 7 yet remove the fact that in heaven they are three and on earth they are three, therefore proving that Jesus is God in flesh. But in modern translations, this is removed.

The list goes on and on and on and some places it gets down right dangerous in the interpretations. I will be sharing these shortly.

BTW the ESV is the RSV updated and the RSV is a extreme liberal translation.

You know what breaks my heart the most. I bought a ton of Bibles ( I thought they were Bibles ) to give away and now I am not sure what to do with them. I think I will give them away as teachings tools and show where they leave things out.

Time to stock up on KJV and hand out a KJV with the other bibles I bought in order to teach and show the differences.

Again I will cover this topic in deeper detail. Keep a look out for an interview with the women that helped craft the devils book called the NIV.

Also, you might want to watch this video. it is about an hour long but pretty informative.

In church the pastor uses the KJV and I was following along in my NASB, this morning at Psalms 98:2b: "He has revealed His righteousness in the sight of the nations." [NASB] But in the KJV: "The Lord hath made known his salvation: his righteousness hath he openly shewed in the sight of the heathen." Big difference, IMO!! I suppose if I were a bible 'EXPERT' with a few PH.D's, maybe I would think different. But the Lord made the bible available for the plow boy on the farm and also the butcher's wife in the city as well as for educated men ... even as Paul said in 1st Cor. 3:19, etc....
This may be a minor point and not life and death for a Christian, but as you point out, a lesbian pumped some damning ideas into the "newer versions" like the NIV. I would like to know just how bad the NASB is corrupted.

The Political Spectrum 101

Tom's Journal.
http://tomschuckmanjournal.blogspot.com/
tschuckman@aol.com

I thought the "Political Spectrum 101" really helped me [and I hope others] understand the finer definitions and different degrees of the political strata in America... as we keep drifting to the Left,heading off the cliff, and most everyone does the 'Ostrich' thing...LOL.

I hope that by now most of my friends and readers still respect what I am trying to get across-- and the way I personally feel about the future of our Nation/ Country.
HISTORY ALWAYS REPEATS ITSELF! Older folks with knowledge and biblical WISDOM can tell/ predict how things will turn out-- "how to read different people and personalities." Still, there are some 'smooth' liars out there who can steal, thieve, lie, mislead, and send people to hell and totally destroy them! At one time in my life I had the job/ position of 'locating, hiring and training' certain people for a large Financial company, and after you go through so many people [and it's a 'numbers game'] you get to sniff people out and cut to the quick to see if they are what you are looking for. You can take the average person who has the average IQ but the heart of the lion and mold them into a CHAMPION! But you have to go thru perhaps 1000 people to get your '5 key people' that will really work hard, learn, and kick butt and win.

We can't really 'see' into a person's heart, only a person's actions, but God can and does see the heart. All we Christians can do is to OBEY God and do HIS will. And what is that?? Share the Gospel of Jesus Christ with every one you can, and try hard to live according to God's standards --His Word, the Bible! Honestly, I just can't even picture a real, biblical Christian who doesn't at least have the BASIC knowledge of the Bible. Granted, we are not all alike and some have more 'gifts' than others, but I raised my own 3 kids to know the basics at a very young age and have seen many young children know, recite, and explain many important scriptures so they can 'fight the fine fight' and put up a good defense for the Faith! Go figure: Muslims, Jews and other religious children do! That's why if will be worse for so-called 'christians' [CHINO's] than it will be for the heathen.
And for the goofy people who refuse to get with the Christian program with the mistaken idea that they will somehow find God's mercy by being [willfully] ignorant --- NO, that won't cut it either. God reads the heart and He will judge everyone!


I believe that we are blessed and favored right now in having some great, patient teachers, whether they are Christian or not in teaching us all about the TRUTH of the political climate and make up, hidden agendas, like Glenn Beck, US Constitution supporters, etc. I applaud them! They help us understand that both parties and many men are liars who only want power and ill-gotten gain $$$$$ at our expense, the working class. Woe to the people in the world, including the USA, who think that some human [or group of humans] will be able to fix the economy, crime, social injustice, corruption!! Hey! I went through this stage too and got suckered into voting for the so-called "right man" and the "right party" a few times in my life. And some of us need to fall down and break our bones more than others....pity. We need to stand up for Almighty God and LET GO OF PUTTING OUR FAITH IN HUMANKIND. It took me most of my life to figure that out, and now I am much happier and have peace of mind because Jesus is my personal Savior, and I know the Truth.

If you have any doubts, and you consider yourself a serious, sincere person who loves the Father in Heaven, the Creator, get on your knees in the privacy of your own secret place and ask God to show you the way to Salvation, Safety and Heaven. When you end that prayer/ petition, say the words: "In Jesus Name, Amen." Then begin reading one of the Gospels, like John, and then the whole book of Romans, and you will be on your way.
Please pray for Sharon and me too.

The Political Spectrum 101

Posted: 20 Feb 2010 10:03 AM PST

By Joseph Farah. WorldNetDailyThere's much confusion about the meaning of left and right in America today.The confusion is, ironically, on both the left and the right.I witnessed this most recently in commentaries and news reports about the riots at the Vancouver Olympics.Those participating in the riots most frequently describe themselves as "anarchists."So let's start with proponents of "anarchy.


On It's Own Merit.

I thought this article and author had enough merit and evidence so as to be re-posted in my humble Blog. I will be testing my own beloved NASB, but I always have my KJV close at hand. What he says makes sense about the NIV. But I still maintain that young people now days DON'T HONESTLY KNOW THEIR ENGLISH ENOUGH TO UNDERSTAND "KING'S ENGLISH" FROM SHAKESPEARE'S TIME IN 1610- 1611. I am sorry to say that many Americans are functionally 'illiterate' EVEN THOUGH THE BIBLE-- GOD'S WORD IS WRITTEN IN 4TH TO 5TH GRADE ENGLISH, they still can't handle it !! Shame... Pity... The Army thinks this is so important that they make English classes available to it's soldiers... at least when I was in--late 60's to 1970.

We have so much to share with verse differences in all the modern Bibles, but when we came across Virginia Ramey Mollenkott, and her influence on the NIV, we had to release an article we found.

This is extremely long, but very informative and I urge you to read it. Again each of us must make our own decisions, but as for me personally I am throwing all the NIVs I own into the trash. I will keep one in order to show the errors and dangerous teachings within it.

This article will show verses related to Virginia Ramey Mollenkott agenda. Later I will discuss other issues that will confuse most new Christians beyond belief.

One note, before we started this project I personally read from the NASB, this will no longer be the case. From what we have found, I will have a KJV ( not a NKJV ) by my side for now on. More on this later.

I urge each one of you as you read any of these articles we post in regards to scriptures to have your Bibles in hand in order to verify, validate or refute anything that is stated.

Revelation 22:18-21 KJV (18) For I testify unto every man that heareth the words of the prophecy of this book, If any man shall add unto these things, God shall add unto him the plagues that are written in this book: (19) And if any man shall take away from the words of the book of this prophecy, God shall take away his part out of the book of life, and out of the holy city, and from the things which are written in this book. (20) He which testifieth these things saith, Surely I come quickly. Amen. Even so, come, Lord Jesus. (21) The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all. Amen.

Sincerely,

Mr. Hernandez

The NIV; Keep or Burn it?

You decide Part 1

NIV, of God or of the Devil?

This is a long Article, But worth it!

Verse Comparison in second half of article!

As of late, our team here at the Chronicle Watch has been researching the different Bible versions that exists on the market today. We have been buying and comparing multiple copies of different versions verses by verse. As we find the differences, we take note then dive down into the Greek and Hebrew meaning of the words in order to understand the differences of translation.

In addition to the changes that we find, we have also been encountering section of verses stripped completely out of certain Bibles ( more on this later ).

One issue we will be sharing with you shortly is about is a Professor named Virginia Ramey Mollenkott who has advocated for LGBT rights and Christian feminism. In addition, she has also contributed major studies on the feminine imagery for God in the Bible, and is in support of gender inclusive language for the scriptures.

With that being said, Virginia Ramey Mollenkott also served as a stylistic consultant for the New International Version of the Bible and is an active member of the Evangelical and Ecumenical Women’s Caucus and Christian Lesbians OUT.

What we would like to share with you now is some interesting information we came across by an author by the name of Carl Graham.

Before you start, make sure you have a copy of your Bible in hand in order to cross reference everything you come across in any of the articles we post in regards to the scriptures.

It's a Fact.

WhichOne'sTheMarine.wmv

Hey Guys! I get to hurl just ONE zinger on my birthday... OK? But it just happens to be TRUE!! The trouble is, even if I post the real, absolute truth on my Blog-- people will still label me a 'racist'. I am too old and too tired to care anymore. Ha! People look at me as if I am committing blasphemy against their sacred god, obama, when in fact the Muslims hail Christians and Jews ever day with threats and insults all year long, forever -- every step of the way, murdering innocent Christians plus their own daughters when they think they get out of line --- but it's forbidden and 'politically incorrect' to talk about that in the news.

If combat Veterans are willing to put their lives on the line to support and protect the U.S. Constitution, DON'T YOU THINK THEY HAVE THE RIGHT TO EXERCISE THEIR 1st AMENDMENT RIGHTS ??? What the heck, we figure that for the most part, we have been screwed and tattooed most of our lives by the Gov't/ VA system and now we are dying in our 50's before our time--- so what do they think they can do to us now?
And being a true Christian doesn't mean that we will cower under a rock like a politician who is selling out the working class in America. If we are martyred-- we certainly know that 'Heaven is our Home.' If Muslims can claim that right-- so can Christians!! As a matter of fact, that is our DUTY! That is what separates us from CHINO'S [Christians in name only]. SHAME ON OBAMA FOR EVEN SUGGESTING THAT COMBAT VET'S PAY FOR THEIR OWN HEALTH/ MEDICAL INSURANCE!!! But obama and the corrupt Congress has no problem shelling out BILLIONS for their Pork Barrel baloney and give always to illegal aliens, and lazy bums and families who never worked. What's wrong with this picture.

And THANK YOU, DAN TOTTS, for helping me fix my power scooter today in Kenosha, WI !! You surely saved my bacon, dear brother. Dan was a Marine too and also worked with me at Chrysler, etc., and is a biker and a good mechanic. I take care of my friends and they take care of me. I like that concept!

Warm Regards,
Tom



Subject: OUTRAGEOUS STATEMENT EVER MADE BY A PUBLIC OFFICIAL
DID HE REALLY SAY THIS!?

This A-Hole did do a quick turnaround on this decision.
Can you believe this!


HERE IS HIS RESPONSE WHEN HE BACKED OFF FROM

HIS DECISION TO REQUIRE THE MILITARY PAY FOR THEIR WAR INJURIES.



WHAT AN EMPTY HEADED PERSON HE MUST BE....

Bad press, including major mockery of the plan by comedian Jon Stewart, led to President Obama abandoning his proposal to require veterans carry private health insurance to cover the estimated $540
million annual cost to the federal government of treatment for injuries to military personnel received during their tours on active duty. The President admitted that he was puzzled by the magnitude of the opposition to his proposal.


image0011.<span class=jpg
" id="MA1.1266604390" height="150" width="225">


"Look, it's an all volunteer force," Obama complained. "Nobody made these guys go to war. They had to have known and accepted the risks. Now they whine about bearing the costs of their choice? It doesn't compute.." "I thought these were people who were proud to sacrifice for their country, "Obama continued "I wasn't asking for blood, just money. With the country facing the worst financial crisis in its history, I'd have thought that the patriotic thing to do would be to try to help reduce the nation's deficit. I guess I underestimated the selfishness of some of my fellow Americans."




Please pass this on to every one including every vet and their families whom you know.




How in the world did a person with this mindset become our leader?




I didn't vote for him!!!




REMEMBER THIS STATEMENT...




"Nobody made these guys go to war. They had to have known and accepted the risks.




Now they whine about bearing the costs of their choice?"


image0022.<span class=jpg
" id="MA2.1266604390" height="218" width="200">

If he thinks he will ever get another vote from an Active Duty,
Reserve, National Guard service member or veteran of a military service
he ought to think it over.. If you or a family member is or has served
their country please pass this to them..

Please pass this to everyone.
I'm guessing that other than the 20-25 percent hardcore liberals in the
US will agree that this is just another example why this is the worst
president in American history. Remind everyone over and over how this
man thinks, while he bows to the Saudi Arabian king.

Tomorrow, Feb. 20th, is my birthday, but I think I will be like Bob Hope and celebrate it earlier... like today! I will be a ripe, old 61, and I thought I would NEVER make it to age 50... LOL! Sharon and I will just go to the great, little, Greek restaurant in Union Grove, and enjoy their Friday fish fry. I have never made a big deal out of my own birthday, and only had one big party on my 50th; what a great time, surrounded with all my close friends. I am just happy that the Lord has blessed me and allowed me to be His humble servant trying hard to fulfill my appointed duty [of ALL Christians -- Matthew 24:14] to share the Gospel of Jesus Christ with all who will listen to me. I firmly believe that is the only reason God allows me to still live on Earth, having survived so many near death experiences/ traumas/ crashes/ accidents, in combat and at home.

The proof is in the pudding... and my Blog history is such that I actually made the bold statement: 'America may not even exist in a year or so!' We hope and pray NOT, but ALL of it is in God's hands-- and Bible Prophecy! Serious students of the Bible always knew WHAT would happen, and approximately WHEN, but we didn't know exactly HOW it would happen. So we as a 'group' always found it so interesting and powerful to watch all these giant world events unfold RIGHT IN FRONT OF OUR EYES-- RIGHT NOW!!

In all my exciting, adventurous, breath taking life, I have known riches --but also poverty and even homelessness, extreme sorrow, remorse, deep clinical depression and PTSD. So I would never welcome MORE hard times after being thru the mill and around the block a few times-- loosing everything, and then rebuilding myself 3 times! By now many of you know that political parties mean nothing, right? They are all corrupt, and "Absolute power corrupts--Absolutely." Every good swimmer knows that he HAS TO TURN BACK TO SHORE AT A CERTAIN POINT IF HE DOESN'T WANT TO DROWN IN THE OCEAN. Don't EVER think it can't happen to the USA -- as WE could "IMPLODE" FROM WITHIN! Greece, and several other countries, and California are on the 'chopping block' right now! Actually, many big politicians know and WANT a Global One World Gov't, Dims and Republicans! In the meantime, ordinary, regular people are going on with life as if nothing is wrong... 'just as in the days of Noah...' There are so many "key" scriptures that point to this generation with "Signs" of the 'Last Days.' True, biblical Christians see these signs and key scriptures PLAIN AS DAY! They try hard to share this info with others, just as their Lord Jesus commanded but few listen or take action. Sorry... Pity... Those people think, and label us and call us crazy, 'nuts.'

Incredibly, when the big bang hits us, and the Rapture, unbelievers and procrastinators will be shocked, and caught with their pants down, but it will be too late at that point as the 7 year Tribulation will be upon them... and Woe--the ONE WORLD GOV'T, and FALSE RELIGION.
Hey! Dear Friends and Readers, this is one train that I don't want to miss! Really, like the apostle Paul said, 'I have completed my mission and have no guilt or shame as to my ministry.' But remember, Heaven is NOT something we can 'EARN' or gain with "works." We are SAVED with Grace from God THROUGH the ransom sacrifice of Jesus' blood.

If only ONE person heeds this warning and reasoning-- I will be a very happy man, no matter what comes down the pike.

Warm Regards,

Sovereignty and Lives at Stake as Debt Grows

Posted: 18 Feb 2010 08:30 AM PST

By Bill Wilson. Word of Life MinistryBad things happen when you don't have enough money to pay your bills. America is facing record home foreclosures, with the federal government predicting that at least three million homes will go into foreclosure this year. The government answer to this problem is to throw more tax payer money at it. The jobless rate is upwards of 20% - this includes unemployment

Read 'em and weep, America ! Shame..... No body else has the 'stones' to post the truth of the matter! It always come down to the combat Veteran who has to do the dirty, dangerous WORK-- of telling/ posting the TRUTH... and being 'politically in-correct.'

California Dreaming...



Just One State
This is only one State...............If this doesn't open eyes, nothing will!


cid:image001..jpg@01CAA820.73B12710
From the L. A. Times:
1. 40% of all workers in L.. A. County ( L.. A. County has 10.2 million people)are working for cash and not paying taxes. This is because they are predominantly illegal immigrants working without a green card.
2. 95% of warrants for murder in Los Angeles are for illegal aliens.
3. 75% of people on the most wanted list in Los Angeles are illegal aliens.
4. Over 2/3 of all births in Los Angeles County are to illegal alien Mexicans on Medi-Cal, whose births were paid for by taxpayers.
5. Nearly 35% of all inmates in California detention centers are Mexican nationals here illegally.
6. Over 300,000 illegal aliens in Los Angeles County are living in garages.
7. The FBI reports half of all gang members in Los Angeles are most likely illegal aliens from south of the border.
8 Nearly 60% of all occupants of HUD properties are illegal.
9. 21 radio stations in L.. A. are Spanish speaking.
10.. In L. A. County 5.1 million people speak English, 3.9 million speak Spanish.
(There are 10.2 million people in L. A. County . )

(All 10 of the above are from the Los Angeles Times)

Less than 2% of illegal aliens are picking our crops, but 29% are on welfare. Over 70% of the United States ' annual population growth(and over 90% of California , Florida , and New York ) results from immigration. 29% of inmates in federal prisons are illegal aliens .

We are a bunch of fools for letting this continue!

HOW CAN YOU HELP ?

Send copies of this letter to at least two other people. 100 would be even better.

Windfall Tax on Retirement Income


Adding a tax to your retirement is simply another way of saying to the American people, you're so darn stupid that we're going to keep doing this until we drain every cent from you. That's what the Speaker of the House is saying. Read below.................
Nancy Pelosi wants a Windfall Tax on Retirement Income. In other words tax what you have made by investing toward your retirement... This woman is a nut case! You aren't going to believe this.
Madam speaker Nancy Pelosi wants to put a Windfall Tax on all stock market profits (including Retirement fund, 401K and Mutual Funds! Alas, it is true - all to help the 12 Million Illegal Immigrants and other unemployed Minorities!
This woman is frightening.
She quotes...' We need to work toward the goal of equalizing income, (didn't Marx say something like this?), in our country and at the same time limiting the amount the rich can invest.' (I am not rich, are you?)
When asked how these new tax dollars would be spent, she replied:
'We need to raise the standard of living of our poor, unemployed and minorities. For example, we have an estimated 12 million illegal immigrants in our country who need our help along with millions of unemployed minorities. Stock market windfall profits taxes could go a long way to guarantee these people the standard of living they would like to have as 'Americans'.'
(Read that quote again and again and let it sink in..) 'Lower your retirement, give it to others who have not worked as you have for it'.
Send it on to your friends.. I just did!! This lady is out of her mind and she is the speaker of the house!

Ryan's option vexes Dems by being an option

By Patrick McIlheran

February 18, 2010

The reason Rep. Paul Ryan is all wrong on saving the country from insolvency, say Democrats, is health care for old people. The Janesville Republican wants to replace Medicare, they say, by merely handing out money.

It's the "privatization" of Medicare, said Rep. Ron Kind (D-Wis.), dismissively. While it sounds generous to give retirees $11,000 to shop from federally approved lists of insurance plans, as congressmen do, "the value of these vouchers would almost surely lag ever further behind," wrote press wingman Paul Krugman of The New York Times, ignoring the reality that such market competition restrains prices.

What's their plan? Remember, Ryan proposed this only for those now under 55. Anyone older gets the old deal: Uncle Sam telling you not to worry, that Medicare will take care of everything. Presumably, Democrats would prefer we all rely on such promises.

Forget for a moment that Medicare's own trustees reported last spring the system would be insolvent in 2017. Forget that this means the real choice is: You want an $11,000 voucher, or do you want crumbs?

Suppose instead that you think Washington somehow will resuscitate Medicare's finances. Then the question is what makes you feel safer: The feds say they'll give retirees a certain sum to spend as they will, or the feds promise to figure out what you need and handle it. Medicare's already promised $38,000,000,000,000 in benefits, so there might be a line.

I'll take the money, thanks. Fewer strings, fewer asterisks.

Medicare is the most unison part of Ryan's "roadmap," a rethinking of how the federal government can avoid welshing on obligations without indenturing your grandkids. Ryan sketches out changes to Social Security and taxes, too. Left or right, one might debate whether the ideas would work, though congressional accountants say they will.

Yet the Democratic establishment has torn into Ryan savagely, declaring his ideas unspeakable even as he preserves their ideals that taxpayers should support retirees and that tax rates should rise as income does.

He proposes that younger workers be allowed the option of diverting a third of their Social Security taxes into accounts managed by the feds. This would be voluntary and would leave two-thirds of one's taxes going into a system that provides young workers with a 0% rate of return.

Congressional Democrats lined up to say this was the "dismantling" of Social Security.

Similarly, Ryan proposes to allow taxpayers the option of paying by a flatter scale, with lower rates but fewer loopholes. This has come under attack as letting rich people get away with something.

Why such vehemence? Well, Ryan is unusually bright, and his plans show promise. It is to Democrats' political advantage to squelch them.

But the real problem for those on the dominant left of the Democratic Party is what you'd think makes Ryan's plans palatable: That they're voluntary. If you think Social Security's a good deal, you'd be able to stay in it, but for "progressives," this choice should never come up. For a century, progressive thought has sought to replace individual choice with collective decision-making.

The reasons vary, from seeing us as incompetent dupes to believing that only some compelled "social compact" can undo life's unfairness. The why is less important than the fact that, in fixing federal finances while treating us as individuals, not a herd, Ryan would transfer power from our leaders to us.

For progressives, this doesn't work. Their system relies on political insurance: Only if everyone is roped into Social Security, their fates made hostage to its collective health, will voters support the program. This is the same argument used for making things like urban public schooling or health care as mandatory as possible. If we're all in it together, we'll have to support their preferred options.

Ryan's alternative: Set people free, and the resulting prosperity means we'll be able to support those who really need it.

It is said Ryan will fail because Americans distrust radical change. Rightly they do, but it's radical, too, that international markets now fret about American collapse. Maybe it's time to rethink the long, slow drift into the radical and unsustainable idea that we can't permit citizens to choose what seems best to them.
