Big Time Wind in WI.

I deleted the post mentioned below that had to do with the "probability of what language Jesus spoke while on earth" from my Blog list, for a number of reasons. 2nd Timothy 2:23 says, "But foolish and unlearned questions avoid, knowing that they do gender strifes." ~KJV. And there is also solid teaching why Paul did not welcome women as teachers/ pastors in the Christian Church, also found in Timothy. Another translation says, "Shun foolish questionings."

There are some old friends with sharp, well studied, Christian minds and hearts who are kind enough to pull me out of a meaningless time consuming fight/ quick sand-- wasting precious time in these 'Last Days' of wickedness on earth before the Rapture... and I think too often about how crazed and blood thirsty the devil and his demons must be, bringing every type of trap, snare, road block and impediment just a little while longer until the Lord claims His Bride-- up, up and away-- to HEAVEN! Satan wants to poison as many wells, minds and hearts as he can before the Lord comes! And don't we know too many people who just love to drag others down into their own swamp of evil, poison, wickedness, and hard-hearted mischief and despair! Satan is the father of the LIE! That is why I keep pounding my drum: 'STAY AWAKE and FINISH THE COURSE!' In ancient Israel, if the temple guards were caught sleeping, the captain of the guard would have them stripped and chased though the streets with men carrying sticks! That's why scripture says, 'Keep your clothes!' The Inter Net can be either a master or slave-- something to help share the Gospel, Christian love, encouragement -- or more mischief and sin. I don't get into all these time consuming farm games, etc., but I am not demonizing them either. But if we can do one-- why not the other?

How many of us have lived a fantastic, adventurous, scary life, even intense combat and war, painful, near death accidents, or just constant HARD WORK?? Many of us feel that we OUGHT TO HAVE A BREAK-- a long rest, after working all our lives, paying taxes and sacrificing to help our families, etc. But this is NOT the time to slack off-- this is the time to hang on, study/ read the Bible daily-- go to a good Bible preaching/ believing church and share the Gospel with as many as we can! Pray and Practice for those special opportunities to present themselves of sharing the Gospel, and then DO IT! Have the guts to take a chance and TELL THE TRUTH of the Gospel, even if it's 'politically incorrect !' And yes, Biblical Christians probably will be finally censored and forbidden to practice their 1st Amendment Rights-- Freedom of Speech, as things get worse in America.... and I don't care who gets in office-- the Bible says that we will suffer some persecution. Sharon and I WILL VOTE ON NOVEMBER 2nd, come wind or high water, and it just may be [again] the 'lessor of two evils.' If the right people, conservative, God-fearing, Constitution respecting get in-- we just might have some peace and quiet enough to share the 'Good News' of the Gospel, for a while.

Sorry to be the bearer of sad and troubling news, but... financial experts still predict that America will most likely suffer DOUBLE DIGIT HYPER INFLATION in the next 6 months, or less, no matter who is in office/ Congress. While both political parties are playing the "blame game", America-- and the world will be going down the tube-- fast and deadly. Any person with an average IQ KNOWS that at a certain point, a person, family, State, or Country cannot remain SOLVENT anymore, if they continue wild spending and borrowing-- and that goes for once great nations--like AMERICA. Duh... Do we all know how a check book works? Don't we understand what Credit Cards and Compound Interest is all about?? The 'Rule of 72 ?' The Milwaukee VA called me the other night and informed me that some of the services now accorded me will be REDUCED, and there is nothing I and other disabled Veterans can do about it! Nothing is too sacred for this liberal, Socialist Gov't to rip off the Veterans who ought to be protected-- especially when they are DISABLED! But this is only the beginning, folks. The first place slick Willy Clinton went to cut benefits was the VA system! And the beat goes on.

Can't you just feel the uneasy, nervous fear, hostility that runs like an electric under-current in our society-- in our everyday life right now? Road rage in Wisconsin and inconsiderate, hostile driving is the norm, and that's one of the reasons I sold my big 6 cylinder Goldwing motorcycle 2 years ago, and I've been biking all my adult life-- to and from work to save gasoline.
Christians will suffer too-- but they have a reliable "Shelter" and "Place of Refuge" -- Jesus Christ, as Lord and Savior. But we should have been following the Bible's wise advice/ council too: Pay off/ down our debts and learn to live frugal.

I took Sharon out for lunch again today at noon, and then home for a while, but we had to be back at 4PM-- Woodstock Nursing Home rules... I took Deuce, the Rottweiler, in the truck and he got a hamburger [plain] too in the back seat of our Dodge 4 by 4. We both needed hugs and kisses to charge up our batteries, and Sharon took more clothes with her and got a new cell phone battery-- still under warranty. So even with the destructive high winds in WI, we still had a very good fruitful day. PTL.

Warm Regards,
Tom

Tom,

These are my thoughts on what language Jesus spoke. Jesus could speak what ever language He needed to get His message across. He probably did not speak English because there were no English speaking people to speak English to. I believe Jesus spoke in tongues, that is to say, that when He spoke, everyone understood Him in their own language regardless of where they were from. Any attempt to pin Jesus down to one language is stupid and pointless since we weren't there. The people who want to or feel they need to pin Jesus down to one particular language are the people who are trying to change the Bible to fit their translation or needs. They want to say,"This is what Jesus really said." or "This is what Jesus really meant." , when ,in fact, we know what Jesus said because we have it written down for us in God's inspired word. We have everything we need to live a holy life. Arguments such as this are used to cast dispersion on the Bible and to cloud the minds of true believers. muslims love this sort of arguments and will jump on it in an attempt to create doubt while they press their islamic (no capital letters for pagan infidels) agenda. Heck, there is a muslim site attached to your e-mail calling for glory to allah. This argument is just another attack on the Bible from a different angle. Tom, don't get caught up in these endless, inane disputes. They are not worth worrying about. Stay on course, stick to the Bible (KJV).

On a lighter note say hi to Sharon and tell her we love her and that she is in our prayers. You both are on our prayer list at church. Take care brother and don't let those yahoos steer you wrong.

Can you get a load of this dog pile?? Ha! How biblically illiterate can these so-called religious leaders get by saying that Christ Nullified God's Promises to the Jews? God judges individuals instead of countries and groups, of course, the the leaders of this particular religion will surely bare a great responsibility if they don't set matters straight, and soon. Actually, this 'news' doesn't bother me, personally, so much, because I KNOW that I am saved by the blood of Christ-- but so many folks will just take this as 'Gospel' without even cracking open the Bible, and remaining IGNORANT WILL COOK THEIR GOOSE! I am afraid that their are certainly plenty of ignorant, false, plastic Baptists and Protestants too.... just for the record. And the problem I have is that this grand BOOK is mostly written on a 5th grade level !! I even have some very fine audio/ listening CD's that are so well vocalized and EZ to listen too--- ask me for that web address.

I guess that Wisconsin will be getting some very wet and WINDY weather starting tomorrow afternoon coming in from Canada. It's that time of the year, and I only hope I can get things cleaned up in time for the snow this year. I need to bring a few more things to Sharon in the morning and need to make a list -- 'short pencil better than long memory'...Ha!

I am still learning how to cook for one man-- ME-- but I like to make enough for 2 days so I don't have to clean up the dirty dishes too often. I also eat 2 apples a day and other fruit.

Catholic Church: Christ Nullified God's Promises to the Jews

Seeing Sharon Today.

It pains me to say that Sharon's doctor told her that she would never be released from the nursing home to return home for good in the future. Sharon was upset and crying when she told me this over the phone yesterday. Her doc said that her heart was too weak-- too damaged for that to ever happen. We both know that the Rapture is our ticket out of this corrupt, violent world if we don't die before then... and that, at least, is MY focal point, as a real, Bible believing, well studied, Christian. People who are 'weak' unbelievers have no such hope and they fear death big time... but they probably don't know much about hell either. Actually the Lord Jesus Christ used the term 'hell' a lot more than He did Heaven! I don't mind admitting that I simply LOVE the Bible Yes! REAL MEN LOVE THE BIBLE!] and that pure History comes alive for me every time I crack that Book open. The Holy Spirit allows/ helps me to understand the Bible, as I continue to tell the world who will listen-- and all you have to do is just ASK for the Holy Spirit to come and open your mind and heart... AFTER you accept the Lord Jesus Christ as you personal Savior! Fact is: This very fact seems way to simple to be true for most people... and their own "Higher Learning" is actually a stumbling block that prevents them from accepting God Almighty. Not all, but most.

So I saw Sharon again today and brought her more grapefruits and her Packers bathrobe, etc. She wanted me to meet some of her friends in the Mess Hall eating their lunch [nasty looking food-- sorry]. One of the guys named Dick is an Air Force Vietnam Veteran who shared some of the same space as I did-- at Bien Hoa Airbase during 1968, and the Big Tet offensive, one month before I got there! He remembered that Army "
tent city" -- the 357th Transportation Company [helicopters] where I served. Every other company on that base had wooden barracks except my old company and we slept in tents [I was in that company for about 8 months-- but I also served at Cu Chi, Phu Loi, and Tan Son Nuit/ Saigon--TDY] --with USARV-- 1st tour. And some other guy named James wanted me to bring our dog to the nursing home next time I come-- and I said I would. There were about 6 people at the table plus Sharon and I, and I even got to talk about the Bible for a while. Well, folks, you just know that this could be a fertile Gospel sharing area, for me and Sharon! God opens up certain 'territories' for those Christians who make themselves available.

And on Sundays they all watch football on the huge screen TV in the Mess Hall, and they all chip in and buy pizza for their own group! I make sure that my dear wife has enough money, and coins to buy cold soda from the machine, etc., in that place, besides bringing her what ever she wants/ needs. She told me that I could ever bring her sewing machine to her room. After showing her my new walking shoes-- she told me that SHE needs some now. OK, dear heart, your wish is my command...lol.

November in WI is always a very windy month, and you can see just how violent Lake Michigan is in November, and Superior too... as that old song, The Edmond Fitzgerald, goes, by Gordon Lightfoot. So if we want to do any last minute weather proofing, now is the time! I make my own storm windows with single or double pane, but my whole body is aching a lot lately-- so maybe my son can help me.

If any more people would like to send a card to Sharon, just contact me and I will give you her address in Kenosha, WI.

Antisemitism and the Holocaust

Chrysler Plant- Kenosha, Closes.

There are a lot of memories here when a man named Tom Schuckman put in over 30 years at this auto plant-- 'one day chicken-- the next day feathers.' It was a pressure cooker, but also our bread and butter, and the hard work was a badge of honor being able to support your family with some dignity, but where many weak people were hired and left at lunch time never to return because the work was 'too hard.' I remember when in 1989, 6000 people got laid off in one day with fear in their guts, but some of us [like me] went straight back to college to make something of ourselves and learn another trade/ skill, so that we felt some self worth as human beings, but it was an up hill fight to stay employed in that recession. Many divorces happened, and when most of us were called back 6 years latter-- HALF OF OUR NUMBER WERE DIVORCED! Although this is just another tragic story in America-- the Bible tells us that things in the world will get MUCH worse in the near future. The only safe anchor is Jesus Christ. Read the Book.

Chrysler Kenosha Plants Closes This Month

By Tom Murray

KENOSHA - Friday will be the final full manufacturing day at the Kenosha Chrysler Engine Plant. By the end of next week, union workers will be out of a job. A company spokesperson said the last engine will come off the line on October 29.

For more than two decades, Mike Underhill punched the clock here.

"When is it going to end? Sooner or later nobody's going to have money left to buy stuff," Underhill said.

There's been auto related blue collar work at this facility for more than a century. In better years, it was an AMC assembly plant. The huge operation paid the bills for thousands of Wisconsin families.

Reduced now to a few hundred employees, much of the Chrysler work that had been done here will go to Mexico.

"Hundreds and hundreds of family supporting jobs because we have the wrong trade policies," said David Newby of the Wisconsin AFL-CIO, blaming problems with the North American Free Trade Agreement.

Governor Jim Doyle blames a struggling, downsizing auto industry.

"It's really a sad moment," Doyle told TODAY'S TMJ4 reporter Tom Murray. "We've known it's been coming for a long time."

As for Mike, he was recently elected to the Kenosha County Board and plans to stay in the area.

"I'm at least going to walk out of here with a pension, so i can't complain about that," Underhill said.

Chrysler said it offered jobs at other plants to about 300 Kenosha employees. About 60 workers accepted the offer.

Globalists Co-opting with the churches.

Here is another key to the puzzle-- at least for me. As I have talked to many pastors these past 12 years about the declining rate of Southern Baptists Churches in America, this article helps explain it. We all knew the stats on how many of these churches were falling-- even daily, but not exactly why. We thought it was because they didn't have God's help and power.

They were missing something spiritual/ Biblical in their churches that made the membership leave in droves. I just happen to attend a Wisconsin Independent Baptist church near by, and we are doing fine in most respects-- we are Fundamentalist, and everything has to be proven with the Bible/ Scriptures, or it just won't fly-- and I feel very comfortable with that rule. If that were not so, I would cease and desist from contributing funds, support and attendance there in a HEART BEAT! Actually the Bible itself encourages all Christians to do this--'make sure of all things.' [Just check out 2nd Timothy 3:16]. If something is not founded/ OK'd by Almighty God, according to His Word -- it will not stand! And so the Bible, all 66 books, is our only Guild, tape measure, plumb bob, framing square, by which we tell if something is fake, demonic-- or the 'Real McCoy.' That means, if people just sit in church like a bump on a log and do NOT participate/ follow along in their OWN COPY OF THE BIBLE-- they could easily be misled by some Piped Piper and/ or by some One World Gov't/ Religion entity-- which translates into Satan and his demons! Personal bible study is so important to sift through all the fakes/ anti-Christs! God is talking to US when we read the Bible and when the Holy Spirit is with us-- so how can we get that spiritual nourishment if we are too stupid and lazy to crack open that special BOOK?

I am so happy that more known authors, writers, Christian bloggers are finding their "2nd wind" and 'man hood' so as to speak up NOW and tell the absolute Truth about what is happening now in the US and the world, and what the Bible says we can expect in the near future!! Does a snake have to bite you in the behind before you wake up and take notice of all the signs that take place every single day-- foretold in the Bible? As I repeat, our main focal point, IMHO, should be upon Israel and the coming war with their hateful Muslim neighbors, and then we can expect the RAPTURE to Heaven of the Church-- that is: the Real Bride of Christ, the Saints who have put all their love, trust and faith in their Lord, Jesus Christ!! For the most part, that is my only reason for living, besides doing God's will of sharing the Gospel. Think: If we were all assured of a ton of gold were buried in our back yard-- we wouldn't have any trouble digging it out even with our bare hands!!

From what I heard first hand, and witnessed, my two oldest children who are in their mid-30's have accepted Jesus as their personal Lord and Savior! Wow! I love to help them if and when I can-- and they have helped me too. God has brought joy to my heart.

I took my wife out for Mexican lunch today, Sirloin tip burritos, with hot sauce and Jalapeno peppers, and then we went down by Lake Michigan to test out my new monocular, watch the 'white caps' and scenery, birds, etc., while we talked and opened our mail. I got Sharon more fresh fruit,grapefruits, oranges and bananas that she loves and treasures. Her room mate, Helen, is suffering from the early stages of dementia and refuses to eat-- down to a skeleton, so Sharon gives her a nice banana sometimes and tries to encourage her, and others. I will probably see her again tomorrow and tell her I love her. Our dog goes crazy when I take him along to see her-- and I think it's good for both of them to visit.

As I said before, all the political mail, phone calls are bugging me too much, and my mom too, as we already know who we will vote for. It reminds me of our old UAW Union steward elections at the auto plant where they all promised to do right by us workers-- but after they got elected they didn't want to lift a finger when a serious grievance needed to be filed against an abusive supervisor. 'Same old scrap-- different pile.' And in those olden days I told them all that nasty truth and was not too popular... lol. More then a few Union Stewards walked around 'high' or drunk and didn't give a hoot too... but I thank the Lord that I forced myself to put in over 30 years to get my pension-- although the Chrysler Corp illegally went into our bonded Contract 2 years ago and just cut many of the Retirees' benefits package with the Union bosses just standing there mute and impotent. We lost our Dental, vision, hearing and feet medical benefits and they didn't even consult us!! Do you think that Federal and State public workers and Congress would be willing to take a cut like we did-- AFTER THEY RETIRED ?? Ha! But it is something like this coming mid-term election that stirs us up, hoping that the 'new blood' in the Congress will help the people save their/ our Constitutional Freedoms-- for a while... lol. True Christians know, however, that this business will only be short lived at best, until the Rapture, and we are G-O-N-E. Folks, we all need to have a balanced attitude about all this business now, and of the Rapture, and the BIBLE [and the Holy Spirit] are the ONLY KEYS that will allow us to pass over the threshold of heaven--the Blood of Christ, and certainly not our own actions or so-called "goodness and works." People roll their eyes and make fun of me all the time when I share the Bible-- Gospel with them, but that small humiliation/ harassment comes with the territory-- and just think of other Christians who are tortured and murdered for their actions and beliefs!

Can you believe how the present Gov't allows Left- Liberal entities to savage the Fox TV network and News people. OK, they may not all be Christians there but go figure that they will not just stop with THEM-- but will continue to take away MORE of our 1st and 2nd Amendment Freedoms and Liberties, while all 3 Gov't bodies stand by watching on-- and even promoting such travesties. Study the Book and Be Prepared, NOW!
I should have some new pix soon to post. Take care, friends.

I think I know the reason why some 'Christian blog/ web site communities' use very restricting methods of entry. It just may be because the Gov't/ new Liberal-Socialist culture seeks to censor Christian thoughts and values-- using the old 'racist, homophobes lies/ attacks, when ever someone wants to quote the Bible. But I need to stress what is called, "a given" -- something that is accepted as a 'truism', fact. Mature, knowledgeable Christians know/ understand that these things are/ will happen in these 'last days' -- all evil that Jesus foretold, but we also know that it will vanish for the 'Elect' who will be Raptured! So great and power is the Holy Spirit that allows us to understand the scriptures! Ahhhh, that feels so good to say this.

Yes, Christians don't have to moan and groan so loud and wring their hands in despair and fear of the future. Instead, we can watch all the 'coverage' from the comfort and safety of HEAVEN!

Man is so sure and arrogant in that he has harnessed all the mighty powers of 'science' [he thinks] to foresee any and all emergencies, possibilities, contingencies... but he is a FOOL who doesn't believe and obey GOD! Just like this Gays in the Army, etc., thing. What super surprises could be in store for those who don't heed the Apostle Paul's words in Romans 1:22 + 27: [verse 22] ~"Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools." [Verse 27] ~ "And likewise, also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust one toward another, men with men working that which is unseemly, and receiving in themselves that recompense of their error which was meet [fitting]." And I hope you all know that JUST posting simple yet profound scripture like I am doing here COULD get me kicked off the AOL! Folks, we will NOT have these freedoms of speech much longer-- and then some of YOU will be on your own! Please 'hard wire' this into your memory banks.

Hey! I know a little bit about the Army and living in close quarters with other guys-- and you have to have what's called, 'good order', cohesion, respect and trust for the guy next to you so you know he is "OK" to cover your back in a fire fight! I believe that the TROOPS WILL VOTE WITH THEIR FEET.

I strongly urge all my friends and readers to GET OUT AND VOTE on Nov. 2nd, or when ever it occurs in your locale. It just might make a big difference by allowing us a bit more FREEDOM in the USA to preach and share the Gospel of Jesus Christ-- for a little while longer-- before the 'storm' comes due.
God Bless all my fellow believers in Christ, our Lord and Savior!
