The Political Spectrum 101

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

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.

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. 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?" 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! 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. This is only one State............... If this doesn't open your eyes nothing will, and you wonder why Nancy Pelosi wants them to become voters! ************************************* LET'S IMPEACH HER NOW BEFORE SHE DOES FURTHER DAMAGE!! WHAT AN IDIOT!! IF YOU DON'T AGREE JUST DELETE--IF YOU DO--PASS IT ON!! WHERE DO WE GET THESE MORONS? 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.
