Fed's 'War on Wealth.'

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

Now remember that I used to be a Registered Rep. with PFS Investments, licensed in Securities, and read many books on finance... also a History buff, so when I read about the Federal Reserve doing such outlandish things-- I KNOW that our national and international economy will be destroyed! You know folks-- do the research yourself by working with your PC or going to the library! You don't need a goofy degree to figure out wealth or staying a float! The USA COULD do other things to stop the bleeding debt without hiking up the taxes-- but they just will not do it!! The "man behind the curtain" is pulling all the strings with the devil whispering in his ear. Economics is not that hard to figure out-- it's a lot like figuring out your own check book. The same goes for understanding the Bible, which is written on a 5th grade level, but if you don't have the Holy Spirit, you won't get it.

I had another rotten day with everything going wrong--- but I will continue to live and work things out somehow. I kept hearing some strange sound coming from my front end-- wheels, so I took the truck to have the oil changed but asked them to check out my tires and brakes, and sure enough, the rotors were shot, kaput, and grinding badly. So I took the truck to a pro-shop that deals with brakes and they estimated that the tie rods were bad too and the whole bill would be $700! My son could have done the brakes for me, but since the tie rods were damaged, I let the shop do the deed, but it still hurts. The truck is only 3 years old and I don't abuse it, so I just wonder what made them wear out so soon. I call this baloney, "Murphy's Law."

In the mean time, my wife and I are still looking for all the paper work for all the many bills, income, expenditures that are needed to file for WI State Title 19, and I had to pay the nursing home $425 this morning for Sharon to stay there the rest of this month.
Hey! I am used to dodging 12 arrows at once and dealing with disaster where others would have a nervous break down-- but I grow weary of shelling out all the money that I don't have. I will just have to lay low for a long time and spend less. And Sharon will just have to deal with the food they serve her at the nursing home instead of ordering out when she get finicky-- but I can still bring her fresh fruit when I visit.

I am going to drive extra careful from now on too and avoid the pot holes to save my truck from further damage-- although my son told me that driving should not hurt a tough truck. The brake shop has a good reputation, but I knew they were going to be high in price... some way, some how. I never trusted Sears either. So... what next?

I got to witness and share the Gospel with 2 women today and held their attention pretty good. And a number of people thanked me for my military service today. I came home and made more hamburgers on the grill, and the dog stole one while I was using the bath room... bad dog! My son, came to pick me up from the brake shop to take me home, and I really love his new car! I could really use a vacation, and have not had one for the last 5 years.

Tom

Our Struggles with Title 19.

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

I encourage everyone to check out BRANNON HOWSE on Christian radio every day, plus visit his fine Blog/ Journal. He doesn't mince any words but goes straight for the TRUTH of the Bible! See his web site below >>>

My wife asked me to take her home today so she could collect all the papers that the WI State Title 19 people want-- to enable her to remain at the Woodstock Nursing Home facility. She was very weak today, could not walk far, short of breath, tired, fatigued and stressed out. We found most of the paper work including everything about my [ours] personal finances, income, house payments and utilities, etc. I thought it was very invasive, but my Mom said that there are many welfare/ services frauds and cheats these days that the State finally wants to clean up. They want to take about 90% of Sharon's SSDI income, leaving her about $45/ month for spending.... Wow! She is pretty much very dependent of other people to care for her, and in her power chair most of the time, so I would be nothing more than a care giver if she was to live home with me, even though I care for her very much and visit her all the time-- but I WOULD DO JUST THAT IF I HAD TO. Like I said before, the last generation took care of their elderly parents at home, but we -- this generation has become a very selfish society, and our "love" has grown cold. It also takes 2 pay checks to live now days, so who is home to watch the grandparents?

Brannon Howse said today that Satan is using the Emergent Church and unbelievers to infiltrate the REAL Christian Church and pollute it/ water down the true Gospel of |Jesus Christ, and it all makes sense. He said that most of the Seminaries and Bible colleges are already corrupted with false doctrine! The Southern Baptists are a good example of how infiltration and corruption has made them wanting/ unfit to teach the people. This means that honest Christians might want to avoid most Bible colleges and seminaries and just study the Bible intently on their own to become the next generations pastors and preachers. See: 2nd Timothy 3:16... "All scripture is given by inspiration of god, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness: That the man of God may be perfect thoroughly furnished unto all good works." But read the whole, short book of 2nd Timothy because it tells exactly what, why and when these "perilous times shall come" -- like right now! And although I don't agree with Glenn Beck's religious beliefs-- he does a great job of explaining who the rich man, George Soros, is manipulating the USA and other nations into bankruptcy and controlling all the unrest and dangers in many facets of world economies! What is happening in England right now WILL ALSO HAPPEN IN THE USA!

You will find that many of George Soros organizations are actually working to collapse America and other countries, and he even calls himself GOD! Don't believe me-- do your own home work!
I the end, of course, we need to stay as close to true Bible study and understanding as humanly possible, and seek out other REAL Bible loving Christians to make sure that they are not fake. You can't go wrong with the Bible, but you need the Holy Spirit to unlock the wisdom and meaning of that Book. I have to follow my own advice too.

Brannon Howse: March 9
Topic: Barack Obama is Destroying Our Economy on Purpose. Description: A pair of radical Columbia University professors by the name of Richard Andrew Cloward and Frances Fox Piven wrote an article in the radical magazine known as The Nation. The article was published on May 2, 1966 and laid out what is now known as the "Cloward-Piven Strategy". The plan calls for the destruction of capitalism in America by swelling the welfare rolls to the point of collapsing our economy and then implementing socialism by nationalizing many private institutions. Cloward and Piven studied Saul Alinsky just like Hillary Clinton and President Obama. Listen as Brannon and his guest James Simpson explain how Cloward and Piven inspired the creation of ACORN that Obama worked for as a community organizer. This interview must be e-mailed all over the country. Americans must awaken and understand the goal of these radicals and what is to come if they succeed. Time is of the essence. Obama is not over his head as some have claimed; he knows exactly what he is doing. Understand the Cloward-Piven Strategy, the rules of Saul Alinsky and their Cultural Marxist worldview and you will understand that what is occurring is not by mistake.

The Perils of Sharon.


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

It's funny [or not too funny] that all the years I worked in Union shops, like AMC/ Chrysler, Nestle Company, etc., the contracts were written in 'legalese' so that the membership could hardly understand it. I will have to do the research on my own retirement 'package' contract to see just what I have [left]-- but when we retired we were a bit rushed to sign so many papers and just get the heck out of that polluted auto factory! After 30 years most people had a belly full of it, even if we left many friends behind, many limped out of the gate every day as the 'walking wounded' with serious injuries that we had to work with every day. A few dozen workers died of a special HP pneumonia caused from leaking coolant and lubricants that kept the big machines running every day, and there was actually a fine mist in the air that we all breathed in, but most of us developed an immunity to that corrupt environment and survived. The company, of course jacked the dying and dead workers' families around and for the most part denied them the benefits, etc. It's just amazing what when down in that big powerful company and union, but I was happy to have a descent paying job to pay the bills, and bought 2 houses while I was working.

After I left visiting my wife today [and took Deuce the Rotty with me] and finally got home, the nursing home called me and had a speaker phone set up with various in house financial people listening and explaining Sharon's status-- and she was there too. Seems like Chrysler Humana only covers the cost of the Home if she needs physical therapy, etc., and WI Title 19 only works if the doctors and staff can prove [persuade] the State, that she NEEDS to stay there. We need long term care for a totally disabled spouse! Because of this circumstance-- I will be required to pay some $400/ month for her to continue her stay, but they are still slugging it out and weighing all the other factors, plus it's hard to get in contact with the State Title 19 people in their lofty Ivory Towers. It's a stinking mess. Sharon feels that she is too frail to come home-- and I agree with her... and she will eventually fall down again at home, break more bones, when I am not looking [she gets lazy and doesn't follow doctors' orders and precautions, etc.
I WILL take care of Sharon the very best I can if she has to come back home, and I enjoy her company and friendship. She has lost a lot of weight, but she has trouble standing up. breathing, and walking!

So if it's hard for my family-- it must be hard for other families too, unless some others fall into the obama's favored group that never worked, welfare type of people, that the gov't supports with OUR dollars all their lives... lol. But we all must understand and respect those who are truly injured/ disabled who have the legitimate right to SSDI, Gov't assistance. Years ago, when there were more REAL practicing Christians-- families took care of their members, including older/ disabled parents.

Seeing and visiting my wife so often, I have begun to become more knowledgeable of the disabled people's plight in nursing homes and how they are treated. I have had a good number of meaningful conversations with several patients at Woodstock Nursing Home and Rehab since Sharon has been there, and some are very smart,wise, people, and Vets. I will try to be respectful and delicate, but Sharon tells me all the dirty secrets about the lazy staff... but if I said "too much," people would automatically call me a 'racist' for being 'too descriptive' -- talking about certain "types" of people who actually HIDE FROM WORK, and do the bare minimum, are rude, mean, grumble and mistreat the patients!! But I've seen lazy pigs too in all my years of work
-- and those kind of people just love to 'play the race card' when ever they get caught loitering, stealing, crimes, or doing a substandard job, etc. Right now with the 'gentleman in the WH' it would be 'politically incorrect' to be more detailed and descriptive.... if you know what I mean.

Well, anyway, when I took our registered "Service Animal", Deuce the Rottweiler into the Mess Hall at lunch time at Woodstock Nursing Home today ALL THE PATIENTS LOVED HIM AND HE LIGHTED UP THEIR SPIRITS AND MADE THEM ALL SMILE! But the 3 food serving staff girls, who just happened to be 'African-American' put up a big fuss and acted 'morbidly petrified' -- totally paranoid at the sight of our gentle, well train, Katrina survivor, Deuce, and they asked me to pull the dog aside-- out of the room, and so I did. but after the patients got done eating they all came by to pet our dog and say wonderful things about him. Sharon has a wide circle of friends who BEG me to bring our dog all the time, but it's hard to do with so many air heads working there, looking for any reason to dampen the spirits of the poor patients who must live there. But we all know that 'certain types' of people fear Rottweilers-- for what ever reasons... lol. We both have spent many hours training Deuce, and also took him to a 'Service Animal School' to get him certified, and he has all his shots, of course. I just paid over $135 today for 2 bags of dog food! Stocking up for the 'Storm.'

My power scooter ran out of 'juice' today while at the grocery store, and what a bummer! NEVER use the distress lights or horn again!! They pull too much electrical charge/ juice out of the battery. So I had to charge the scooter again for the 2nd night in a row. See, I have to learn from my mistakes too.

Flash! Sharon just called me up and told me to pick up her and all her belongings in the morning, as she thinks it will cost too much to keep her there-- but she will continue to probe, research, and fight to get what is hers, legally.

Hey! How many people like or eat sardines ?? Most of the ladies will say 'No Way!' I think that they are a good 'survival' food. So is peanut butter. What type of survival foods have you all put up, stored?? People like me need to know.
Well, how can we miss not knowing how other countries feel about our Gov't printing more money to BUY UP OUR OWN BONDS AND DEBT in the USA?? This is 101 basic Economics our Gov't, obama and Congress are pretending to ignore!! This funny money with no Gold standard backing-- will DE-VALUE our American dollar so that it will have much LESS buying power! Glenn Beck is at least telling the truth about this business.... that it just may take a wheel barrow full of dollars to buy one loaf of bread, not IF, but when our economy tanks. But that is exactly what obama, the Congress and George Soros wants! Good bye, USA....... Hello China! All this business makes loving the Lord Jesus Christ and studying the Bible all the more important. Are you ready for the Rapture? I heard that there are no nursing homes in heaven...

Warm Regards,
Tom

Foreshadows of Ferocity.

<<<< Sharon hoeing the garden years ago.
TomsJournal.http://tomschuckmanjournal.blogspot.com/
tschuckman@aol.com

Even I was surprised today at hearing the price of gold and silver reaching all time highs in the Market: Gold- $1404., and Silver- $27.7! And I told my son that I predict that the price of silver will surpass the $40/oz mark within 6 months-- but he refused to take any bets... lol. This is only one of my many hobbies, keeping track of commodities, etc., and speculating. I am not a big investor, but I [like many combat Veterans] believe in putting stuff aside, like candles, batteries and a few canned goods, just in case the lights go out. And "if I should die before I wake-- my wife and kids can handle the take... lol." Seriously, few people will be celebrating when the 'Big Storm' finally comes to visit us, and I can only pray that God in His infinite wisdom and mercy will take up His saints in the Rapture before.

Poor Sharon is caught between a rock and a hard place [as if we didn't already have enough on our minds] because my Chrysler-Humana Insurance wants to kick my wife out of the nursing home [in their long distance stupidity and greed] while Sharon's good, well informed Doctor says that Sharon should stay in the nursing home! She can barely walk a few feet and uses her power chair all the time [which doesn't fit in our cramped house], has lost so much weight, is frail, needs help bathing, has a bad heart, lungs, diabetes, Sarcoidosis, etc., but the Insurance 'people' want to save money and send her home. Of course I WILL TRY TO HELP HER EVERY WAY I CAN, but what will happen after I have knee surgery and have to recover?? This is what Gov't 'obama-care' will like IF it becomes a reality. We can only hope the new Congress will turn that sick puppy around and drown it!

I must have called Sharon at least 6 times today
-- just to talk to my dear wife and friend and visit. She is very blessed to have the ability of making friends all over, where ever she goes, and has her own ministry of sorts, sharing the Gospel and Bibles all the time... and I supply her with all she needs. God is surely using her as a tool to spread the Good News of the Gospel of Jesus Christ-- and what does that say for the rest of us 'normal', able Christians, who can't spare the time or energy??

So I asked my son to be on 'stand by' tomorrow in case we have to get Sharon's heavy power chair back home, etc. PTL, I am feeling a bit better lately and today was unseasonably warm outside too--60's. I've been taking some, JOINT ADVANTAGE GOLD tablets: drdavidwilliams.com --that seems to help me a little with my arthritic knees. But I need to say that most of the mail order stuff I have tried in the past were just baloney and didn't work-- except to take my money and run. Beware.

I sill watch Glenn Beck on TV- Fox News channel, and I am amazed at all the under cover stuff he exposes about George Soros, the Dims, WH, and Socialists, hiding behind the bushes.... and what a nasty scam they all are-- tricking the beguiled Americans to vote for their policies and causes. But when Glenn talks about HIS brand of Christianity I take his words with a grain of salt. You must take the truth of what he says about the Gov't and corruption-- but leave the rest, of course, IF you are a Christian, IMHO. See-- if you don't know your Bible, how can you possibly know if someone is telling the truth about the REAL God and Jesus Christ, the Bible teaches about? Most folks are just TOO LAZY TO DO THE HOME WORK, and that is their big error of willful ignorance. And that will sink their ship, IMO.

I ought to call Chrysler-Humana Insurance tomorrow concerning my wife's disposition, but they have so many barriers and merry go rounds/ obstructions built into their system that it might take all day long to talk to a human being-- and that's the way they like it. The progressive- liberal Union - Local 72, knows that too.

Who can understand the Bible?

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

I get so happy when I "trip" upon great articles like this! And when the body of Christians mostly agrees with the same fundamental things/ dogma, facts of the Bible, it's a powerful feeling of faith in action, IMO. I don't call that a consensus-- just a confession of biblical faith... and no studied Christian has a problem with that.

My son, Andy, came over this morning to help me with a few chores inside and out, as I noticed that my truck battery was a bit low in the cooler air temps lately-- and i am not the man who waits until the dead of Winter to get things corrected, and there was some nasty corrosion on the battery posts which we took care of. I have to take that battery charger off before I hit the hay tonight soon. I told Andy that I am trying harder to be gentler and kinder now that he is all grown up, and he functions very well all by himself and is smart/ skilled. I may have tried to "micro-manage" things so they would be correct when he was younger and inexperienced-- but we can't hold our kids' hands all though life.

I also found some close friends from church who said they would take the dog in their home while I have surgery in December.... and not many would put themselves out for that. We have fake/ plastic/ snobby people in our church too... or CHINO's [Christians in name only], but I am not their judge, but I try to get along. Even so, we learn from the Bible that these 'Last Days' will see the 'dross come to the top.' I figure if I just take care of ME and work on MY own sins, I should be OK. As it is, I love to be in church every Sunday morn to see all the friends and be edified.

So... Who can understand the Bible? I've yet to see any priest come close to my level of Bible understanding.... sorry folks, if a person spends all his time in the 'Traditions of men'-- and not with the Bible-- they simply will not know what's in the BOOK. And really, folks, can people honestly have the Holy Spirit and support homosexuality and perpetrate untruths and things without scriptural merit?? And I can usually hold my own next to many other pastors of Christian congregations, although I keep learning things everyday! Yet the bible says 'if I don't have LOVE, the "head knowledge won't do me any good." ' And in the long run-- Heaven must be our goal, and being with the Lord. You've got to be on the train to get somewhere-- so we do what ever it takes to get on that train. And someone who just sits on the fence to take a "wait and see attitude" is LOST, since the Rapture will come like a 'thief in the night.' As I have said many times, the Bible is written on a 5th grade level, so it's NOT ABOUT THE BRAINS, but our hearts and the Holy Spirit. Actually this formula is so SIMPLE that it turns many prideful ones away!

And for a number of reasons [now days] college often times swells the head so much that the 'educated' person may not be receptive and humble enough to depend/ put faith in the HOLY SPIRIT! Number 2: Most college professors are atheists and agnostics, so that they push Humanism and Evolution, big time. Number 2: people who don't support and honor God's Chosen people, Israel, are constituting themselves enemies with God. The Jews may still be blinded now-- but they will see the light soon enough after the Rapture or before.

Tom

By Dave Hunt The Berean Call Question: At a Bible study, the subject of who can understand the Bible came up. I said that a person who is born again and is depending on the Holy Spirit can understand it.

Layers of Heaven and Hell?

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

I am posting this piece and a friend's comment because...'If I didn't completely understand this before-- perhaps others didn't either. And this just goes to show that many of us consider ourselves well read and studied Christians, but we will need most of eternity to fully understand what the Lord wants us to.' Personally, I get so much joy and satisfaction our of sharing the Bible and Gospel with others-- but I want to get it said RIGHT/ CORRECTLY! However, some folks fear opening their mouth if they don't have a "sheep skin"from Bible college-- and IMO, that is wrong! The Gospel is simply-- yet profound.

I found a great witnessing tool: Wells Publications: www.wellspublications.com
-- a plastic card that shows the "Road to Romans" way of witnessing and soul winning.
"If you were to die, do you know 100% for sure that you would go to heaven?" And then the 4 steps you must know and accept to be saved...... Please check it out soon.

And to think that I wasn't sure I could answer that question 10 years ago!! I am truly blessed to have Jesus as my personal Lord and Savior!

This is all accurate except for the fact that they do not explain that when Jesus' spirit left HIS body, on the cross, HE went to Gehenna and took the sins HE bore for all of us on the cross and left them there. At the same time HE was proving to those in Gehenna that the promise they had rejected had been fulfilled. He left taking the keys to death, Hell and the grave and went on to Paradise where He fulfilled HIS promise to the thief, that believed in HIM and asked for mercy, which was,"This day thou shalt be with me in Paradise."
After three nights and three days, which began on Thursday evening,NOT! Friday evening, Resurrection Sunday morning, HE came from Paradise with all her inhabitants following HIM and the stone rolled away from door of Joseph's cave grave-sight and HE resurrected HIS body and led those from Paradise on into the portals of the Third Heaven. This is from Staley

Layers Of Heaven And Hell?

Where can I find information online about the layers of heaven, hell and their names?
Q. Where can I find information online about the layers of heaven, hell and their names?
A. I’m not sure what you’re asking, but here’s what I know about heaven and hell.
There are three heavens implied in 2 Cor. 12:2, but these are based on the Greek understanding of the cosmos. In their thinking, the first heaven referred to the immediate sky, where the clouds float and where our atmosphere is contained. The second heaven is the vast expanse of the Universe where the stars and planets can be seen, and the third heaven is the Throne of God.
The place where believers go to spend eternity with Jesus is called the New Jerusalem. It’s described as coming down from heaven in Rev. 21:2. Whether they know it or not, the New Jerusalem is what believers are usually referring to when they talk about going to heaven. For now, our spirits do go to heaven when we die, but only until the New Jerusalem is unveiled and we get our resurrection bodies.
As far as hell is concerned, the word comes from the Greek word Hades, the abode of the dead. Before the cross it was divided into two compartments. One was called Paradise and was where the faithful went to wait for the Messiah to shed His blood for their sins so they could be admitted into Heaven. When Jesus died, He went to Paradise and when He came out of the tomb, he brought all those from Paradise with Him and took them to Heaven. Since then the spirits of dead believers go straight to be with the Lord.
The other part was called Torments and is where unbelievers still go to await their final judgment at the end of the Millennium. Torments is a place of excessive heat and thirst and other discomfort and is the basis for our understanding of hell. After the unsaved are judged, they go to Gehenna, also called the Lake of Fire, for their final punishment.
Peter is the only one to mention Tartarus, a place where fallen angels are kept in chains and darkness awaiting judgment. Greek philosophy held that Tartarus is as far below hell as Hell is below Earth.
