Church Life “Historic Grace” (Acts 13:13-25)The Mission (vv. 13-15)The Old Covenant (vv. 16-22)Ro. 9:4-5, 11, 14, 15-16 Deut. 7:6-8 7 It was not because you were more in number than any other people that the Lord set his love on you and chose you, for you were the fewest of all peoples, 8 but it is because the Lord loves you and is keeping the oath that he swore to your fathers, that the Lord has brought you out with a mighty hand and redeemed you from the house of slavery, from the hand of Pharaoh king of Egypt.Ro. 8:29 For those whom he foreknew he also predestined Eph. 1:4-5, ‘he chose us in him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and blameless before him.1 Ki. 15:5 ..because David did what was right in the eyes of the Lord and did not turn aside from anything that he commanded him all the days of his life, except in the matter of Uriah the Hittite. Psa. 27:4 One thing have I asked of the Lord, that will I seek after: that I may dwell in the house of the Lord all the days of my life, to gaze upon the beauty of the Lord and to inquire in his temple (my goodness how he loved church). Psa. 63:1 O God, you are my God; earnestly I seek you; my soul thirsts for you; my flesh faints for you, as in a dry and weary land where there is no water.2 Sam. 7:9b-c,16 And I will make for you a great name, like the name of the great ones of the earth…. 16 And your house and your kingdom shall be made sure forever before me. Your throne shall be established forever.'” So Paul in his msg is going to bring it home in making his next point as he takes the OC into the N. .The New Covenant (vv. 23-25)Isa. 11:1-2 1There shall come forth a shoot from the stump of Jesse, and a branch from his roots shall bear fruit. 2 And the Spirit of the Lord shall rest upon him, the Spirit of wisdom and understanding, the Spirit of counsel and might, the Spirit of knowledge and the fear of the Lord. Mt. 1:1 The book of the genealogy of Jesus Christ, the son of David, the son of Abraham… Lu. 1:32-33 32 He will be great and will be called the Son of the Most High. And the Lord God will give to him the throne of his father David, 33 and he will reign over the house of Jacob forever, and of his kingdom there will be no end.”
Out of Egypt Craig Dehut part 1There is so much noise today in the media. Useless, controversial and often inflammatory rhetoric which leads to more and more animosity and division. Documentaries today tend to “fuel the fire” (so to speak) as well. In order to teach the Gospel, we first must understand the Gospel message. The only way to truly understand the Gospel message is to experience it as best we can. Many people are unable to make a pilgrimage to the land of the Bible. Many people do not have the resources, or perhaps their health issues preclude them from doing so. It's been said that a picture is worth a thousand words… I'd also add that a video is probably worth 10,000 pictures. Because, in actuality, that is what a video is… thousands of individual pictures strung together in sequence to tell as story. Amen! This brings up the need for safe, professional and Biblically accurate videos that reflect the Bible Stories in a unique way that will motivate, educate and inspire Christians everywhere. That is where our guest comes in. Amen. Craig Dehut is one the co-founders of Apian Media. He and Stuart Peck were alarmed with the soaring rate of disengaged young people with the Bible. They recognized one of the causes was lack of engaging, accurate and professionally produced videos that would capture the attention of, not only the younger generation, but Christians everywhere. And that, in the process, these videos would be viewed from around the world through the power of the internet. Even in places open witnessing cannot be accomplished. Amen! They recently released their latest work, “Out of Egypt,” which is a video detailing their attempt to make the “Exodus Journey” which God used to free Israel from Egyptian bondage. To discuss this magnificent project, help me welcome to the program, Craig Dehut! Craig, thank you for taking the time to join us today! I do appreciate your time. First question I always start with is this… other than that brief information I just shared, can you tell us in your own words, “Who is Craig Dehut?” The idea for Apian Media started way back in 2015. Can you share original motivation that started the planning for this between you and Stuart Peck? Share with our listeners your name, “Appian Media.” What does that reference? Which was your first video that Apian Media produced? How many views have you received on your videos from around the world? What kind testimonials have you received from those that viewed your videos? When you filmed the “Following Jesus” video – What was the most memorable or remarkable experience you can share with us? There is no doubt of the need for videos like you are producing. How important do you view the need to counter the culture of Hollywood and the trash corrupting the minds of people today? Let's talk about your recent video, “Out of Egypt.” How long was the planning process for this video (from “Hey, this is an idea” to actually landing in Egypt)? The primary, I guess I'd say “narrator” in the film, is Jeremy Dehut. I take it Jeremy is your brother? Is that correct? I was watching the video and seen you interview the owner of a brick making factory…You were declared the “master brick maker.” What was your impression when you saw them making bricks almost in the same manner as depicted in the Bible? If I did my calculations correctly, the average brick maker could make 500 bricks per day – per person. Did you ever find out if that was the “tale of the bricks” that would have been used in Biblical times? I learned from the video that the “Ark of the Covenant” idea came from Egypt. Is that...

1There were some present at that very time who told him about the Galileans whose blood Pilate had mingled with their sacrifices. 2And he answered them, -Do you think that these Galileans were worse sinners than all the other Galileans, because they suffered in this way-- 3No, I tell you- but unless you repent, you will all likewise perish. 4Or those eighteen on whom the tower in Siloam fell and killed them- do you think that they were worse offenders than all the others who lived in Jerusalem-- 5No, I tell you- but unless you repent, you will all likewise perish.---The Parable of the Barren Fig Tree--6And he told this parable- -A man had a fig tree planted in his vineyard, and he came seeking fruit on it and found none. 7And he said to the vinedresser, 'Look, for three years now I have come seeking fruit on this fig tree, and I find none.

Christmas Sale at EDUhttps://www.eurodollar.university/sales-page-1There are several reasons why suddenly the Fed has apparently accepted market rates going sharply lower. The soft landing scenario might be in greater jeopardy than recent data indicates - or it might more likely come from outside the US. Our focus here, however, is on the financial. What if conditions in the CRE market we all know is going to be a huge problem have started to come to a head? If so, that would get the FOMC's attention. There is evidence for this, too.

Seventh Sunday after Pentecost The Collect: O Lord, mercifully receive the prayers of your people who call upon you, and grant that they may know and understand what things they ought to do, and also may have grace and power faithfully to accomplish them; through Jesus Christ our Lord, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, now and for ever. Amen. Old Testament: Genesis 25:19-34 19These are the descendants of Isaac, Abraham's son: Abraham was the father of Isaac, 20and Isaac was forty years old when he married Rebekah, daughter of Bethuel the Aramean of Paddan-aram, sister of Laban the Aramean. 21Isaac prayed to the Lord for his wife, because she was barren; and the Lord granted his prayer, and his wife Rebekah conceived. 22The children struggled together within her; and she said, “If it is to be this way, why do I live?” So she went to inquire of the Lord.23And the Lord said to her, “Two nations are in your womb, and two peoples born of you shall be divided; the one shall be stronger than the other, the elder shall serve the younger.” 24When her time to give birth was at hand, there were twins in her womb. 25The first came out red, all his body like a hairy mantle; so they named him Esau. 26Afterward his brother came out, with his hand gripping Esau's heel; so he was named Jacob. Isaac was sixty years old when she bore them. 27When the boys grew up, Esau was a skillful hunter, a man of the field, while Jacob was a quiet man, living in tents. 28Isaac loved Esau, because he was fond of game; but Rebekah loved Jacob. 29Once when Jacob was cooking a stew, Esau came in from the field, and he was famished. 30Esau said to Jacob, “Let me eat some of that red stuff, for I am famished!” (Therefore he was called Edom.) 31Jacob said, “First sell me your birthright.” 32Esau said, “I am about to die; of what use is a birthright to me?” 33Jacob said, “Swear to me first.” So he swore to him, and sold his birthright to Jacob. 34Then Jacob gave Esau bread and lentil stew, and he ate and drank, and rose and went his way. Thus Esau despised his birthright. Psalm: Psalm 119:105-112 105 Your word is a lantern to my feet * and a light upon my path. 106 I have sworn and am determined * to keep your righteous judgments. 107 I am deeply troubled; * preserve my life, O Lord, according to your word. 108 Accept, O Lord, the willing tribute of my lips, * and teach me your judgments. 109 My life is always in my hand, * yet I do not forget your law. 110 O The wicked have set a trap for me, * but I have not strayed from your commandments. 111 Your decrees are my inheritance for ever; * truly, they are the joy of my heart. 112 I have applied my heart to fulfill your statutes * for ever and to the end. Old Testament: Isaiah 55:10-13 10For as the rain and the snow come down from heaven, and do not return there until they have watered the earth, making it bring forth and sprout, giving seed to the sower and bread to the eater, 11so shall my word be that goes out from my mouth; it shall not return to me empty, but it shall accomplish that which I purpose, and succeed in the thing for which I sent it. 12For you shall go out in joy, and be led back in peace; the mountains and the hills before you shall burst into song, and all the trees of the field shall clap their hands. 13Instead of the thorn shall come up the cypress; instead of the brier shall come up the myrtle; and it shall be to the Lord for a memorial, for an everlasting sign that shall not be cut off. Psalm: Psalm 65: (1-8), 9-14 [1 You are to be praised, O God, in Zion; * to you shall vows be performed in Jerusalem. 2 To you that hear prayer shall all flesh come, * because of their transgressions. 3 Our sins are stronger than we are, * but you will blot them out. 4 Happy are they whom you choose and draw to your courts to dwell there! * they will be satisfied by the beauty of your house, by the holiness of your temple. 5 Awesome things will you show us in your righteousness, O God of our salvation, * O Hope of all the ends of the earth and of the seas that are far away. 6 You make fast the mountains by your power; * they are girded about with might. 7 You still the roaring of the seas, * the roaring of their waves, and the clamor of the peoples. 8 Those who dwell at the ends of the earth will tremble at your marvelous signs; * you make the dawn and the dusk to sing for joy.] 9 You visit the earth and water it abundantly; you make it very plenteous; * the river of God is full of water. 10 You prepare the grain, * for so you provide for the earth. 11 You drench the furrows and smooth out the ridges; * with heavy rain you soften the ground and bless its increase. 12 You crown the year with your goodness, * and your paths overflow with plenty. 13 May the fields of the wilderness be rich for grazing, * and the hills be clothed with joy. 14 May the meadows cover themselves with flocks, and the valleys cloak themselves with grain; * let them shout for joy and sing. Epistle: Romans 8:1-11 1There is therefore now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus. 2For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus has set you free from the law of sin and of death. 3For God has done what the law, weakened by the flesh, could not do: by sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh, and to deal with sin, he condemned sin in the flesh, 4so that the just requirement of the law might be fulfilled in us, who walk not according to the flesh but according to the Spirit. 5For those who live according to the flesh set their minds on the things of the flesh, but those who live according to the Spirit set their minds on the things of the Spirit. 6To set the mind on the flesh is death, but to set the mind on the Spirit is life and peace. 7For this reason the mind that is set on the flesh is hostile to God; it does not submit to God's law—indeed it cannot,8and those who are in the flesh cannot please God. 9But you are not in the flesh; you are in the Spirit, since the Spirit of God dwells in you. Anyone who does not have the Spirit of Christ does not belong to him. 10But if Christ is in you, though the body is dead because of sin, the Spirit is life because of righteousness. 11If the Spirit of him who raised Jesus from the dead dwells in you, he who raised Christ from the dead will give life to your mortal bodies also through his Spirit that dwells in you. Gospel: Matthew 13:1-9, 18-23 1That same day Jesus went out of the house and sat beside the sea.2Such great crowds gathered around him that he got into a boat and sat there, while the whole crowd stood on the beach. 3And he told them many things in parables, saying: “Listen! A sower went out to sow.4And as he sowed, some seeds fell on the path, and the birds came and ate them up. 5Other seeds fell on rocky ground, where they did not have much soil, and they sprang up quickly, since they had no depth of soil.6But when the sun rose, they were scorched; and since they had no root, they withered away. 7Other seeds fell among thorns, and the thorns grew up and choked them. 8Other seeds fell on good soil and brought forth grain, some a hundredfold, some sixty, some thirty. 9Let anyone with ears listen!” 18“Hear then the parable of the sower. 19When anyone hears the word of the kingdom and does not understand it, the evil one comes and snatches away what is sown in the heart; this is what was sown on the path. 20As for what was sown on rocky ground, this is the one who hears the word and immediately receives it with joy; 21yet such a person has no root, but endures only for a while, and when trouble or persecution arises on account of the word, that person immediately falls away. 22As for what was sown among thorns, this is the one who hears the word, but the cares of the world and the lure of wealth choke the word, and it yields nothing. 23But as for what was sown on good soil, this is the one who hears the word and understands it, who indeed bears fruit and yields, in one case a hundredfold, in another sixty, and in another thirty.”

As of mid-September 2022, Ethereum has officially switched over to a PoS model. It has given birth to Ethereum 2.0, a new version of Ethereum. This will result in a 99.95% reduction in Ethereum's energy consumption and the ability to further scale the Ethereum ecosystem.1Ether tokens will remain exactly the same for investors, and there should be no change to the operations of Ethereum-based applications.1There are driving factors behind the move to a PoS consensus mechanism, including:* More decentralization by lowering the hardware requirements for node operators* Faster transaction confirmations (though overall speed will be about the same)* 99%+ reduction in energy consumption by node validators* Ability to add more scaling solutions (such as sharding)* Increased security through client diversityBut first this week in Fintech
Life Under the Sun, Pt. 6 When Things Are Going Well… By Louie Marsh, 10-2-2022 Introduction – Malawi Trip In the Old Testament when did Israel get into the most trouble? When things were going well, not when things were going bad. There's a lesson there! 1) REMEMBER God is in Control! “1There is an evil that I have seen under the sun, and it lies heavy on mankind: 2a man to whom God gives wealth, possessions, and honor, so that he lacks nothing of all that he desires, yet God does not give him power to enjoy them, but a stranger enjoys them. This is vanity; it is a grievous evil.” (Ecclesiastes 6:1–2, ESV) 2) RECOGNIZE that enjoyment is a gift of God. “7All the toil of man is for his mouth, yet his appetite is not satisfied.” (Ecclesiastes 6:7, ESV) We work to feed out appetites; Meanwhile our souls go hungry. Eccl. 6:7 (Mes) 3) RESIST complacency. Without God Truth is… DEBATABLE “8For what advantage has the wise man over the fool? And what does the poor man have who knows how to conduct himself before the living?” (Ecclesiastes 6:8, ESV) ELUSIVE “9Better is the sight of the eyes than the wandering of the appetite: this also is vanity and a striving after wind.” (Ecclesiastes 6:9, ESV) Beyond my power to CHANGE “10Whatever has come to be has already been named, and it is known what man is, and that he is not able to dispute with one stronger than he.” (Ecclesiastes 6:10, ESV) Beyond my ability to PREDICT “12For who knows what is good for man while he lives the few days of his vain life, which he passes like a shadow? For who can tell man what will be after him under the sun?” (Ecclesiastes 6:12, ESV) 4) REJOICE in God's gifts! ENJOYMENT “19Everyone also to whom God has given wealth and possessions and power to enjoy them, and to accept his lot and rejoice in his toil—this is the gift of God.” (Ecclesiastes 5:19, ESV) SALVATION “8For by grace you have been saved through faith. And this is not your own doing; it is the gift of God, 9not a result of works, so that no one may boast. 10For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand, that we should walk in them.” (Ephesians 2:8–10, ESV)

If you are struggling with being an emotional and you wonder if something is wrong with you, I want to remind you that there is nothing wrong with you.

Text: Psalm 23:1There are many images that God uses to describe His relationship with those who trust in Jesus as Lord and Savior. One such depiction that is often misunderstood in our culture is that of the relationship between the Shepherd and His sheep. There are many wonderful realities to discover about the Good Shepherd and His care for us, but there are also many ways that we need to consider our response to Him. We invite you to listen today to consider: Is the Lord truly your Shepherd and how does this reality impact the way you live your life today? Sermon Notes
The Gospel of John 8-14 Part Two: Believing Is Seeing By Louie Marsh, 5-1-2022 Slides -last one Believing is seeing book cover. THE 1ST ENCOUNTER: “1As he passed by, he saw a man blind from birth.” (John 9:1, ESV) What They Saw: The Disciples saw a theological CONUNDRUM. Theodicy is the technical term for trying to understand God and evil. Jesus saw a HURTING soul. What They Said: Disciples: Who's FAULT is this? “2And his disciples asked him, “Rabbi, who sinned, this man or his parents, that he was born blind?”” (John 9:2, ESV) Jesus – God is MOVING here! “3Jesus answered, “It was not that this man sinned, or his parents, but that the works of God might be displayed in him. 4We must work the works of him who sent me while it is day; night is coming, when no one can work.” (John 9:3–4, ESV) What It Means: 1) God is not PUNISHING ME for my sins. “1There were some present at that very time who told him about the Galileans whose blood Pilate had mingled with their sacrifices. 2And he answered them, “Do you think that these Galileans were worse sinners than all the other Galileans, because they suffered in this way? 3No, I tell you; but unless you repent, you will all likewise perish. 4Or those eighteen on whom the tower in Siloam fell and killed them: do you think that they were worse offenders than all the others who lived in Jerusalem? 5No, I tell you; but unless you repent, you will all likewise perish.”” (Luke 13:1–5, ESV) “20The soul who sins shall die. The son shall not suffer for the iniquity of the father, nor the father suffer for the iniquity of the son. The righteousness of the righteous shall be upon himself, and the wickedness of the wicked shall be upon himself.” (Ezekiel 18:20, ESV) Why Bad Things Happen: Fallen World- Satan- My bad decisions No bodies' fault! THE REACTION: 1) God's work always stirs up TROUBLE! “16Some of the Pharisees said, “This man is not from God, for he does not keep the Sabbath.” But others said, “How can a man who is a sinner do such signs?” And there was a division among them. 17So they said again to the blind man, “What do you say about him, since he has opened your eyes?” He said, “He is a prophet.” 18The Jews did not believe that he had been blind and had received his sight, until they called the parents of the man who had received his sight 19and asked them, “Is this your son, who you say was born blind? How then does he now see?” 20His parents answered, “We know that this is our son and that he was born blind. 21But how he now sees we do not know, nor do we know who opened his eyes. Ask him; he is of age. He will speak for himself.” 22(His parents said these things because they feared the Jews, for the Jews had already agreed that if anyone should confess Jesus to be Christ, he was to be put out of the synagogue.) 23Therefore his parents said, “He is of age; ask him.” 24So for the second time they called the man who had been blind and said to him, “Give glory to God. We know that this man is a sinner.”” (John 9:16–24, ESV) 2) My TESTIMONY is my best witness. “25He answered, “Whether he is a sinner I do not know. One thing I do know, that though I was blind, now I see.” 26They said to him, “What did he do to you? How did he open your eyes?” 27He answered them, “I have told you already, and you would not listen. Why do you want to hear it again? Do you also want to become his disciples?” 28And they reviled him, saying, “You are his disciple, but we are disciples of Moses. 29We know that God has spoken to Moses, but as for this man, we do not know where he comes from.” 30The man answered, “Why, this is an amazing thing! You do not know where he comes from, and yet he opened my eyes. 31We know that God does not listen to sinners, but if anyone is a worshiper of God and does his will, God listens to him. 32Never since the world began has it been heard that anyone opened the eyes of a man born blind. 33If this man were not from God, he could do nothing.” 34They answered him, “You were born in utter sin, and would you teach us?” And they cast him out.” (John 9:25–34, ESV) THE 2ND ENCOUNTER: 1) I need to be TEACHABLE. “35Jesus heard that they had cast him out, and having found him he said, “Do you believe in the Son of Man?” 36He answered, “And who is he, sir, that I may believe in him?” 37Jesus said to him, “You have seen him, and it is he who is speaking to you.”” (John 9:35–37, ESV) 2) True spiritual knowledge results in WORSHIPPING Jesus. “38He said, “Lord, I believe,” and he worshiped him.” (John 9:38, ESV) 3) Knowledge results in either FAITH or JUDGMENT. “39Jesus said, “For judgment I came into this world, that those who do not see may see, and those who see may become blind.” 40Some of the Pharisees near him heard these things, and said to him, “Are we also blind?” 41Jesus said to them, “If you were blind, you would have no guilt; but now that you say, ‘We see,' your guilt remains.” (John 9:39–41, ESV)

The New World Order isn't coming to America. It's here. From the day Satan was kicked out of heaven, he has attempted to create the New World Order, in total rebellion against God. The anarchists in America are trying to destroy our democracy. They are not patriots. We cannot function without the rule of law. Historically, every attempt to establish the New World Order began with rebellion. Evil can have a religious face and kill you. What is the deep state church, and how is totalitarianism creeping in? Wake up, America!Pastor John Hagee delivered this sermon last spring based on his book Earth's Last Empire.The New World Order is not a new concept. It's objective from Genesis to today is to rebel against the authority of God. It all began with Nimrod, who's name means revolt, when he proposed to build the tower Babel. Known as a murderer of men and a rebel against God, Nimrod was Satan's disciple.Babel means confusion and God is not the author of confusion.Nimrod gradually changed the government into tyranny, to turn men from the fear of God and to bring them into constant dependence on his power.JosepheusSounds familiar, right? Nimrod's compulsion for absolute control set the foundation for The New World Order. Nimrod intended to become the dictator of both the government and the counterfeit religion that he and his wife put together. He declared himself King and his bride, Samiramus, as the Queen and high priestess of idolatry. Here at Babel is the first organized idolatrous religious system and is survives today.Now the whole earth had one language and the same words. And as people migrated from the east, they found a plain in the land of Shinar and settled there. And they said to one another, “Come, let us make bricks, and burn them thoroughly.” And they had brick for stone, and bitumen for mortar. Then they said, “Come, let us build ourselves a city and a tower with its top in the heavens, and let us make a name for ourselves, lest we be dispersed over the face of the whole earth.” And the Lord came down to see the city and the tower, which the children of man had built. And the Lord said, “Behold, they are one people, and they have all one language, and this is only the beginning of what they will do. And nothing that they propose to do will now be impossible for them. Come, let us go down and there confuse their language, so that they may not understand one another's speech.” So the Lord dispersed them from there over the face of all the earth, and they left off building the city. Therefore its name was called Babel, because there the Lord confused the language of all the earth. And from there the Lord dispersed them over the face of all the earth.Genesis 11:1-9Samiramus knew enough about the revelation of God to know that God had promised the seed of the woman would bring blessings to the world (Gen. 3:15). She had a son and named him Tammuz. She claimed that he was the divine fulfillment of Genesis 3:15. She made herself and her son the symbols of worship, called the mother child cult, with the mother holding the child in her arms. This cult spread to Phoenicia and then to Pergamum and on to Rome.And to the angel of the church in Pergamum write: ‘The words of him who has the sharp two-edged sword. I know where you dwell, where Satan's throne is. Yet you hold fast my name, and you did not deny my faith my faithful witness, who was killed among you, where Satan dwells.Revelation 2:12-13We are on this Earth to be salt and light. Salt stops corruption; it irritates. Light destroys darkness. Satan is the prince of darkness. Socialism is darkness, but we are the source of the truth to a nation that's now stumbling in deception because of our national leadership. We are the source of hope, we are built on the solid rock Jesus Christ who is hope to the hopeless. God is with us! We will press on because God is with us and everything is going to be alright.Do not be unequally yoked with unbelievers. For what partnership has righteousness with lawlessness? Or what fellowship has light with darkness?2 Corinthians 6:14Therefore go out from their midst,and be separate from them, says the Lord,and touch no unclean thing;then I will welcome you,2 Corinthians 6:17Samiramus set herself up as the only approach to God. She adopted the title of The Queen Of Heaven. She taught that salvation came through her by the means of sprinkling of water and ceremonial cleansing. There was a pergetorial cleansing after death. She created temple virgins, now known as nuns, to pray for her son, who was killed by a wild beast. They were to fast for 40 days, which is now called lent. At the end of those 40 days, they would celebrate Isthar, which we now call Easter. They gave colored eggs to each other to celebrate eternal life. We are still doing it today.We, the body of Christ, celebrate the Resurrection of Jesus Christ and nothing else! We celebrate His victory over death, hell and the grave. Because He lives, we shall live also!This mother child cult spread to Israel, when Ahab, the King of Israel, married Jezzabel, who was raised in the mother child cult. She immediately began to put the prophets of God into prison. Why? Because a socialist dictatorship cannot stand a bible preaching ministry. Soon after, Israel started worshiping Baal and God sent severe judgement upon Israel.Abraham was called out Ur and out of a home that worshiped the mother child cult. His father kept his idols until the day he died.And Joshua said to all the people, “Thus says the Lord, the God of Israel, ‘Long ago, your fathers lived beyond the Euphrates, Terah, the father of Abraham and of Nahor; and they served other gods.Joshua 24:2Now the Lord said to Abram, “Go from your country and your kindred and your father's house to the land that I will show you.Genesis 12:1There must be separation between light and darkness. What you are willing to walk away from will determine what God can bring you to. You must walk away from darkness before you can embrace the light.Do not be unequally yoked with unbelievers. For what partnership has righteousness with lawlessness? Or what fellowship has light with darkness?2 Corinthians 6:14Therefore go out from their midst,and be separate from them, says the Lord,and touch no unclean thing;then I will welcome you,2 Corinthians 6:17We are not trying to be like the world. We are the light of the world. Turn on the light!But they did not listen or incline their ear, to turn from their evil and make no offerings to other gods. Therefore my wrath and my anger were poured out and kindled in the cities of Judah and in the streets of Jerusalem, and they became a waste and a desolation, as at this day. Jeremiah 44:5-6God tells us why he's coming to send the children of Israel into captivity. It's because they worshiped the mother child cult.You shall have no other gods before me.Exodus 20:3That's not a request, that's a command!In Ezekiel 8 we see the Jewish people in the temple of God who are worshiping idols to the Queen of Heaven. God sent Ezekiel to the temple to peek through a hole in the wall to see what the people in the temple were doing. They were praying to the Queen of Heaven. This is the Babylonian cult of Nimrod and Samiramus. The people continued to worship the mother child cult, which remains a global and powerful religion that will clash with the antichrist for global control in the near future.Why? Because they both want the same thing. The antichrist wants to control the world and the false religion that's coming is going to want to dominate the world.Rejoice over her, O heaven,and you saints and apostles and prophets,for God has given judgment for you against her!”Then a mighty angel took up a stone like a great millstone and threw it into the sea, saying,So will Babylon the great city be thrown down with violence,and will be found no more;Revelation 18:20-21The bible clearly teaches that Rome will be completely demolished as the antichrist destroys the mother child cult and becomes an instant global dictator.Listen closely! There is one mediator between God and man. It is not the Queen of Heaven. It is not a man. It is the Lord Jesus Christ who is King of Kings and Lord of Lords. Who was crucified for you and I.Therefore God has highly exalted him and bestowed on him the name that is above every namePhilippians 2:9and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.Philippians 2:11We celebrate Jesus who loved us and gave himself for us at the cross. Without the shedding of blood, there is no remission of sin.Jesus, who washed us whiter than snow,Jesus, who took our poverty at the cross and gave us the wealth of Abraham,Jesus, the great physician who heals our body,Jesus, who gives us peace in the midst of the storm,Jesus, who bears our burdens when we can't go forward,Jesus, who hears us personally when we pray,Jesus, who gives us confidence in the storms of life.There is no Queen of Heaven. There is only God the Father and His Son Jesus Christ.The second appearance of the New World Order, Satan came to Jesus and said:And he said to him, “All these I will give you, if you will fall down and worship me.”Matthew 4:9When Satan was kicked out of heaven, he was called the prince of darkness. He had authority over the earth, until the cross. That's why socialism must control the church. We live under the authority of God almighty and His Word. We will bow to no one but Jesus Christ, the King of Kings and Lord of Lords.Socialism must attack the church and they will if we allow that to take our government over.You are the light of the world. A city set on a hill cannot be hidden.
The New World Order isn't coming to America. It's here. From the day Satan was kicked out of heaven, he has attempted to create the New World Order, in total rebellion against God.

There is only God the Father and His Son Jesus Christ.The second appearance of the New World Order, Satan came to Jesus and said:And
1There was a certain man of Ramathaim-zophim of the hill country of Ephraim whose name was Elkanah the son of Jeroham, son of Elihu, son of Tohu, son of Zuph, an Ephrathite. 2He had two wives. The name of the one was Hannah, and the name of the other, Peninnah. And Peninnah had children, but Hannah had no children. 3Now this man used to go up year by year from his city to worship and to sacrifice to the LORD of hosts at Shiloh, where the two sons of Eli, Hophni and Phinehas, were priests of the LORD. 4On the day when Elkanah sacrificed, he would give portions to Peninnah his wife and to all her sons and daughters. 5But to Hannah he gave a double portion, because he loved her, though the LORD had closed her womb. 6And her rival used to provoke her grievously to irritate her, because the LORD had closed her womb. 7So it went on year by year. As often as she went up to the house of the LORD, she used to provoke her. Therefore Hannah wept and would not eat. 8And Elkanah, her husband, said to her, “Hannah, why do you weep? And why do you not eat? And why is your heart sad? Am I not more to you than ten sons?” 9After they had eaten and drunk in Shiloh, Hannah rose. Now Eli the priest was sitting on the seat beside the doorpost of the temple of the LORD. 10She was deeply distressed and prayed to the LORD and wept bitterly. 11And she vowed a vow and said, “O LORD of hosts, if you will indeed look on the affliction of your servant and remember me and not forget your servant, but will give to your servant a son, then I will give him to the LORD all the days of his life, and no razor shall touch his head.” 12As she continued praying before the LORD, Eli observed her mouth. 13Hannah was speaking in her heart; only her lips moved, and her voice was not heard. Therefore Eli took her to be a drunken woman. 14And Eli said to her, “How long will you go on being drunk? Put your wine away from you.” 15But Hannah answered, “No, my lord, I am a woman troubled in spirit. I have drunk neither wine nor strong drink, but I have been pouring out my soul before the LORD. 16Do not regard your servant as a worthless woman, for all along I have been speaking out of my great anxiety and vexation.” 17Then Eli answered, “Go in peace, and the God of Israel grant your petition that you have made to him.” 18And she said, “Let your servant find favor in your eyes.” Then the woman went her way and ate, and her face was no longer sad. 19They rose early in the morning and worshiped before the LORD; then they went back to their house at Ramah. And Elkanah knew Hannah his wife, and the LORD remembered her. 20And in due time Hannah conceived and bore a son, and she called his name Samuel, for she said, “I have asked for him from the LORD.” 21The man Elkanah and all his house went up to offer to the LORD the yearly sacrifice and to pay his vow. 22But Hannah did not go up, for she said to her husband, “As soon as the child is weaned, I will bring him, so that he may appear in the presence of the LORD and dwell there forever.” 23Elkanah her husband said to her, “Do what seems best to you; wait until you have weaned him; only, may the LORD establish his word.” So the woman remained and nursed her son until she weaned him. 24And when she had weaned him, she took him up with her, along with a three-year-old bull, an ephah of flour, and a skin of wine, and she brought him to the house of the LORD at Shiloh. And the child was young. 25Then they slaughtered the bull, and they brought the child to Eli. 26And she said, “Oh, my lord! As you live, my lord, I am the woman who was standing here in your presence, praying to the LORD. 27For this child I prayed, and the LORD has granted me my petition that I made to him. 28Therefore I have lent him to the LORD. As long as he lives, he is lent to the LORD.” And he worshiped the LORD there.
Scripture For Today:Matthew 11:17“And as he taught them, he said, “Is it not written: “My house will be called a house of prayer for all nations?” But you have made it a den of robbers.”Pray with All Kinds of Prayer pt 1There are basically three different kinds of prayers you can pray that are found in the New Testament. They are: “Prayer that changes THINGS.” Plus “Prayer of Thanksgiving” and no, it is not just to be used on Thanksgiving Day. And the “Prayer of Dedication and Worship.” There are also a few categories that would be listed under those three major types of prayer. For example, under “Prayer that Changes Things,” there are four major prayers. They are the “Prayer of Agreement.” The “Prayer of Binding and Loosing.” “The Prayer of Petition.” And then the “Prayer of Intercession.” Prayer that changes things is not a prayer that changes God. No way. God is the same yesterday, today and forever. Amen! His Word is established FOREVER. All we need to do is find out what His Word says – and believe it. Then pray the prayer of faith based ONLY on His Word. You've heard me teach on this all year long. I cannot emphasize enough the importance of finding out what the Word of God says concerning a situation and then using the Word to fight the battle. Amen! This will give you the confidence when you apply your faith to what you have prayed, as long as it is in line with God's Word, to HAVE the thing you desired. You can study it out for yourself in Mark 11:22-24. Amen! Folks, God is on your side. He is for you – not against you. It is the devil that is against you. He is against everything you stand for. But God is ON your side. Amen! Everything God has done is to free you from the bondage of Satan. But it is up to you to take that freedom and do something with it. And the most important thing you can do is pray accurately as you speak the Word of God in Faith! Amen! You can have confidence when you pray. 1 John 5:14-15 clearly state this for our benefit: “This is the confidence we have in Him. That if we pray according to His Word, He hears us. And if He hears us, we can know that we receive the petitions that we desire of Him.” Amen! It doesn't get any better than that! Amen! Let's Pray!

1There shall come forth a shoot from the stump ofJesse,and a branch from his roots shall bear fruit.2Andthe Spirit of theLordshall rest upon him,the Spirit of wisdom and understanding,the Spirit of counsel and might,the Spirit of knowledge and the fear of theLord.3And his delight shall be in the fear of theLord.He shall not judge bywhat his eyes see,or decide disputes bywhat his ears hear,4butwith righteousness he shall judge the poor,and decide with equity for the meek of the earth;and he shallstrike the earth with the rod of his mouth,andwith the breath of his lipshe shall kill the wicked.5Righteousness shall be the belt of his waist,andfaithfulness the belt of his loins. 6The wolf shall dwell with the lamb,and the leopard shall lie down with the young goat,and the calf and the lion and the fattened calf together;and a little child shall lead them.7The cow and the bear shall graze;their young shall lie down together;and the lion shall eat straw like the ox.8The nursing child shall play over the hole of the cobra,and the weaned child shall put his hand on the adder's den.9They shall not hurt or destroyin allmy holy mountain;for the earth shall be full of the knowledge of theLordas the waters cover the sea. 10In that daythe root ofJesse, who shall stand asa signal for the peoplesof him shall the nations inquire, and his resting place shall be glorious.

-Top 10 most important chapters of the Bible.- Is such a list even conceivable-- How do you place the precepts-principles of scripture into a category of -greater-lesser- importance when the fact is, -It is written, 'Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceeds from the mouth of God.' -1There's no such thing as an -irrelevant- section of scripture. Because even if a particular portion's interpretation may not belong to us -i.e. the Mosaic law that was given to ancient Israel under the old covenant-. We're always going to be able to mine application that is relevant to us. - Having said that, if you were to formulate such a list, I just don't see how 1 Cor 15 couldn't be on it.

Proverbs 13:20, 14:2–3John 20:11,14–16,18,27–282 Samuel 1:12–14, 2:1There are many blessings to living in Western Europe in the twenty-first century. However, we live in a society in which respect, awe and reverence do not seem to be as valued as they once were.
Lately, I have felt this undeniable push to work a little harder - not just working towards, but accomplishing my goals and fulfilling my purpose. I don't know if it's because I'm getting older, or if it's confirmation that my time is NOW, but I don't want to miss it. There's this passion arising inside of me that removes all fear and takes the limits off. I've said “I can do the impossible,” but now I actually feel it and believe it and I'm going for it! I have nothing to lose and EVERYTHING to gain!Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen. Hebrews 11:1There are countless times in the Bible where people were living normal lives, perfecting their skills and no one knew them. Then suddenly, seemingly out of nowhere, God called them out to do a Great Work. They were the solution to the world's problem at that time. Even those who didn't think/believe they were ready, were equipped when their appointed time arrived. They didn't have to get prepared, they were ready for their NOW; so are YOU! You may not truly know it until you do it, so just do it!~David was delivering lunch when his NOW came, but he was ready.~Gideon was hiding on the threshing floor when his NOW came, but he went on to do Great and Mighty exploits.~Mary was living the life of a normal teenage girl when her NOW came, but she accepted her call and gave birth to our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.~Esther experienced her NOW when she risked her life that her people might be saved.If you keep quiet at a time like this, deliverance and relief for the Jews will arise from some other place, but you and your relatives will die. Who knows if perhaps you were made queen for just such a time as this?” Esther 4:14Our time is NOW! It's time to stop watching everyone else do it; let's get busy! The world is waiting for me and YOU. There is Greatness inside of you, USE IT and do it NOW!Remember, if God said it, then That Settles It.

And he said to the woman, "Has God indeed said, 'You shall not eat of every tree of the garden'?" And the woman said to the serpent, "We may eat the fruit of the trees of the garden; but of the fruit of the tree which is in the midst of the garden, God his said, 'You shall not eat it nor shall you touch it, lest you die.'"Then the serpent said to the woman, "You shall not surely die. For God knows that in the day you eat of it your eyes will be opened, and you will be like God, knowing good and evil."John 8:32"And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free."Matthew 4:1Then Jesus was led up by the Spirit into the wilderness to be tempted by the devil.And when He fasted forty days and forty nights, afterward He was hungry.Now when the tempter came to Him, he said, "If You are the Son of God, command that these stones become bread."But He answered and said, "It is written, 'Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceeds from the mouth of God.'"Romans 8:1There is therefore no condemnation to those who are in Christ Jesus, who do not walk according to the flesh, but according to the Spirit.satan is very good at what he does, and if you and I are going to defeat him, we must use the word of God and fight in the correct "realm."
War in the HeavenliesPreeminence of the New Creation Pt. 4.1There hasn’t been a message so critical to the time we live and yet so under taught. There very notion of UFO and Aliens are considered taboo by not only Preachers but many Christians can’t fathom the reality of issues facing planet earth as plausible or even needed, so the church is left dangerously in the dark, ignorant of spiritual things. As I introduce this topic to the body of Christ I start off discussing the Preeminent beings of creation, as we progress I unveil a false Christ that Jesus himself prophecies would approach in the last days, in addition to many false Christs.

THE WEEK OF INVOCAVIT - MONDAYLESSON: ROMANS 8:12-17Then Jesus was led up by the Spirit into the wilderness to be tempted by the devil. Matthew 4:1There is a reason why the evangelist, with considerable care, states right at the beginning of this Gospel that Jesus was led by the Spirit into the wilderness, that He fasted there, and was tempted. The reason for this is that no one should ever presume to follow Christ's example by his own choice and make a selfish fast of it, decided by his own will alone. He should wait for the Spirit, who will send him quite enough fasting and temptation.Anyone who deliberately courts the danger of hunger or any other temptation when, under the blessing of God, he can eat, drink, and enjoy the other comforts of life, is tempting God. We should never seek out shortages and temptation. They will doubtless come of themselves to give us ample opportunity to do our best in noble fashion.We read that “Jesus was led by the Spirit into the wilderness,” not “Jesus chose the wilderness for Himself.” Paul also says, “All who are led by the Spirit of God are the sons of God” (Romans 8:14). God gives His blessings for us to use them with thanksgiving and not to despise them. He does not bless us so that we should tempt Him.SL.XI.534,4AE 76,366PRAYER: Enlighten us and guide us by your Holy Spirit, heavenly Father, that we never presume to tempt you in disregard of your blessings but use them to your greater glory, in and through Jesus Christ our Savior. Amen.

30 In this episode I talk about reaching my goal of an episode a day for 30 straight days.I knew when I started this episode I was going to make a few changes and I thought going in I would change the format to 5 days a week and take the weekend off but you will hear how I “change” my mind in the middle of the episode and how I give the “credit” to God moving me to work six days and take the Sabbath off.The ten commandments are found in Exodus 20:1-17Next, I remind you of the three pillars I've built this whole podcast upon. Again they are:Your foundationYour filteryour follow-throughEach episode will use at least one of these pillars (and maybe some episodes will use all three)The Foundation example I used was fromMatthew 7:24-27Therefore whoever hears these sayings of Mine, and does them, I will liken him to a wise man who built his house on the rock; and the rain descended, the floods came, and the winds blew and beat on the house; and it did not fall, for it was founded on the rock.But everyone who hears these sayings of Mine, and does not do them, will be like a foolish man who built his house upon the sand; and the rain descended, the floods came, and the winds blew and beat on that house; and it fell. And great was its fall.Romans 8:1There is therefore no condemnation to those who are in Christ Jesus, who do not walk according to the flesh, but according to the Spirit.
In This weeks episode of Master My Garden podcast I talk to the superb Charles Dowding No Dig Gardening expert.

1There have been times when I've heard a mom say, "I am the mother and the father. " As much as I understand what is meant by this, I have to conclude that a mother could never be the father. As great as many singlemoms are, a father is irreplaceable. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/collette-conner/support

Proverbs 18:17Whoever is slow to anger has great understanding, but he who has a hasty temper exalts folly. Proverbs 14:29The fruit of the Spirit is...self-control - Galatians 5:22 8 Finally, brothers, whatever is true, whatever is honorable, whatever is just, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is commendable, if there is any excellence, if there is anything worthy of praise, think about these things Philippians 4:8Specific to Gossip and LiesYou shall not spread a false report. You shall not join hands with a wicked man to be a malicious witness. Exodus 23:1There are six things that the Lord hates, seven that are an abomination to him: haughty eyes, a lying tongue, and hands that shed innocent blood, a heart that devises wicked plans, feet that make haste to run to evil, a false witness who breathes out lies, and one who sows discord among brothers. Proverbs 6:16-19With his mouth the godless man would destroy his neighbor, but by knowledge the righteous are delivered. Proverbs 11:9A dishonest man spreads strife, and a whisperer separates close friends. Proverbs 16:28Whoever goes about slandering reveals secrets; therefore do not associate with a simple babbler. Proverbs 20:19Titus 3:1-10 - 1Remind them to be submissive to rulers and authorities, to be obedient, to be ready for every good work, 2 to speak evil of no one, to avoid quarreling, to be gentle, and to show perfect courtesy toward all people.3 For we ourselves were once foolish, disobedient, led astray, slaves to various passions and pleasures, passing our days in malice and envy, hated by others and hating one another. 4 But when the goodness and loving kindness of God our Savior appeared, 5 he saved us, not because of works done by us in righteousness, but according to his own mercy, by the washing of regeneration and renewal of the Holy Spirit, 6 whom he poured out on us richly through Jesus Christ our Savior, 7 so that being justified by his grace we might become heirs according to the hope of eternal life.8 The saying is trustworthy, and I want you to insist on these things, so that those who have believed in God may be careful to devote themselves to good works. These things are excellent and profitable for people. 9 But avoid foolish controversies, genealogies, dissensions, and quarrels about the law, for they are unprofitable and worthless. 10 As for a person who stirs up division, after warning him once and then twice, have nothing more to do with him, 11 knowing that such a person is warped and sinful; he is self-condemned.Links ReferencedSection 230 of the Telecommunications Act of 1996.

Signs in the Heavens – Tom Donnan pt 1There is something going on right – and actually has been accelerating for the past 60 years or so, that the Bible says will usher in what is referred to as “The End Times.” That is the fascination with space. With the study of the stars, planets, moons, asteroids, comets, etc. Even back in ancient days, people were tracking the movement of the planets and star constellations. That is how the wise men discerned that a new king had been born among the Jews. They were watching the heavens and seen His sign. The bible is full of scripture references about signs in the Heavens. From Genesis to Revelation. But, for the sake of time, I’m only going to quote one here today. "And there will be signs in the sun, in the moon, and in the stars; and on the earth distress of nations, with perplexity, the sea and the waves roaring; men's hearts failing them from fear and the expectation of those things which are coming on the earth, for the powers of the heavens will be shaken. (Luke 21:25-26) Now, to open this discussion on signs of the Heavens and more, is our good friend Tom Donnan. Tom is back today to discuss things going on recently in mankinds quest to understand the stars, the moon, etc. Help me welcome back to the program, our good friend, Tom Donnan! Tom, thank you for coming back on the program today! Ok, let’s start with this one. We will talk about the Moon. 240,000 miles, give or take, from earth. We first went to the moon 51 years ago. That fulfilled President Kennedy’s goal of “landing a man on the moon and returning him safely to the earth.” But, even after the Apollo space program ended, we never really finished with the exploration of the moon. I think I seen somewhere there are, at this time, something like 18 different nations trying to return to the moon. Have you seen anything about that? Eighteen Countries now have the Moon in their sights https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RlmbxSarRKg (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RlmbxSarRKg) But WHY would they want to go back to the moon? Isn’t just a void, desolate place?

Future moon base, could make hydrogen fuel for travel to Mars. I have seen recently that SpaceX is trying to commercialize space travel. They are working on cutting the costs of space travel down enough where private citizens will be able to go into space, at least on a short trip, right? All that is good, for the moon. But we are also looking farther out, past the moon. We even landed a spacecraft ON an asteroid, right?

Why Our Youth Are Leaving the ChurchEd Stolle pt 1There is no doubt today, that our youth are in trouble, spiritually speaking. Many consider the faith of their grandparents and parents as being “narrow minded” or “old fashioned.” Many think the church is too hypocritical or not applicable to today’s society. As Christians, we need to figure out what is wrong inside the churches that is driving our youth away. My guest today is Ed Stolle. Ed has spent the last 15 years teaching in youth ministry. He currently teaches the middle school age class at the First Baptist Church of Crofton, in Crofton, Maryland. In addition to youth ministry, he has been speaking at conferences around the nation. Some are fairly well known, like at the Colson Institute of Christian Worldviews our at River Valley Ranch camp. He has spoken in churches, on radio and podcasts and is an expert on topics related to church youth. Ed has served as a financial audit investigator for over 29 years in various government agencies. Because of his extensive experience in investigations, he has developed an ability to teach, what he calls, “evidence-based apologetics” to youth as well as adults. I know, we are going to learn something today! Praise God! Help me welcome to the program, Ed Stolle. Ed, thank you for taking time away from your very important day job and coming on the program! How did you get started down this particular path of teaching Christian Apologetics? You shared a statistic with me that approximately 70% of the youth brought up in the church, leave the church after high school. Is that right? What percentage of them come back? Has there been any surveys or anything that you are aware of as to “Why they left?” If they were brought up in the church, what are some circumstances that would bring doubts into their minds that the Bible stories they have learned are not true? Do see the “anti-Christian bias,” on display across America, as a major contributing factor in our young people abandoning their Faith and fleeing the church? When do they start to actually take notice of the attacks on their Faith? In high school? What kinds of questions are the youth seeking answers to? What are some of the things they are struggling with when it comes to the Bible? How do the youth today view the Bible in relation to our culture and everything they see happening in the news? Are there enough knowledgeable teachers who can teach basic Apologetics at the appropriate grade levels for our youth? Folks, this is a major crisis that is happening right now in our churches, all across America. In fact, it is beyond crisis mode. Using a term that is popular right now, you could call it a pandemic. But instead of natural lives being lost, it is the spiritual lives, the spiritual future of our youth today. These are YOUR KIDS. These are YOUR GRANDKIDS. These are the future leaders of America, in politics and in business. Do you care? That is the question I’m asking you today. Do – YOU – care? If so, go down into the show notes and reach out to Ed Stolle. Do it right now, while you are thinking about it. Just click the link and get in touch with him. Invite him to speak at your upcoming youth rally or event. Invite him to come out and speak at your next Bible Conference.

Today's episode is all about affirmations and gratitude. These are two spiritual practices that I believe everybody needs to incorporate into their life. If not, daily, at least, at some point within your journey.When we talk about affirmations, it's hard not to talk about Louise Hay. And my introduction to affirmations was definitely from Louise Hay. If you've not heard of Louise Hay or read her book, you can heal your life, then you are definitely missing out. And you need to access this ASAP. Louise Hay had an incredible story. She created Hay House publishing house.Find her book herehttps://www.goodreads.com/book/show/129603.You_Can_Heal_Your_LifeShe actually began a lot of her work by working with the gay community in San Francisco, San Francisco, and working with a lot of people around healing from AIDS. Louise Hay also healed her own body from cancer, by using affirmations. Louise Hay was a pioneer in understanding and sharing metaphysics.The definition of Metaphysics is a division of philosophy that is concerned with the fundamental nature of reality and being that includes ontology, which examines the nature of reality. Cosmology which is a theory or doctrine describing the natural order of the universe. And often epistemology which how you can examine reality. The easy way to describe metaphysics is the emotional root cause of physical manifestations - that our physical problems are occurring because of emotional issues.So Louise Hay had a belief that every physical issue, illness or disease was caused by a specific emotional problem. She also believed that affirmations were a really incredibly powerful way to heal these emotional problems. Her book, you can heal your life is like a bible to me. I buy every copy I come across in the opp shop, because I often gift this book to people in my life. In the book, has A to Z guide of all the physical issues that you could be having, an emotional reason to why that could be happening, and an affirmation to help heal it.So part of Louise Hays philosophy is that we are each responsible for our experiences. And that every thought that we think is creating our reality. This can be a disempowering idea or an empowering idea, Because you are in control of your experience, you create your experience and you create your reality. Which means if you are unhappy with your reality. You can change it. You have the power to heal and your body is incredible and beautifully interlinked with the mind and the Spirit. And in focusing on your mindset and your self love, then this will have a direct impact on your physical health and wellness.Louise Hay believes we should release our past and forgive everyone in our life. And that self approval and self acceptance, were the key to positive changes within our life. So Louise Hay created the holistic philosophy, more or less. In that mind, body and spirit, were interlinked. And if one area was lacking, then the others would suffer. Louise Hay started her work in the 70s or 80s so really before a lot of people. And before New Age was really a thing, which is part of why she created her own publishing agency, to help create new age and self help books. Louise Hay had a belief that we choose our parents, And we choose our experiences for a reason. Louise Hay believed that almost every problem stemmed from a belief of not being good enough. And that by using these affirmations, We could stop believing that we're not good enough. Forgiveness is a big part of the work that Louise Hay did and the affirmations are a lot around, love and forgiveness. She had a belief that even if we didn't believe the affirmation at first, after saying it every day for a period of time that we would start to believe this, just as we do with negative thoughts. After people say something to you like. For an example, calling you dumb. After a certain amount of time of having this experiences, being told you are dumb, we may believe that we are, in fact dumb.So there's lots of really beautiful exercises that you can do in there you can heal your life book. One of my introductions to Louise Hay was I actually bought an audio book of affirmations which I listened to in the car. And I'm sure you can do this just by YouTubing or there may be an app for affirmations now. My son when he was a baby was a notoriously bad sleeper. The best way that I could get him to sleep was driving around in the car. So I would literally drive around until he fell asleep, sometimes singing Twinkle Twinkle Little Star until he fell asleep. And then I would put on my Louise Hay affirmations CD, and I would just sort of sit there in the car, or drive around doing these affirmations. There were definitely some affirmations that I really really struggled with. I had issues with my parents then.. And one of the affirmations is; “I love my parents and my parents love me”, and that that felt really hard to say for me at that period in my life. Louise Hay covers all of this in the book, when you experience a resistance to change. We are the only blockers to ourselves.Here's some of these examples of physical issues that manifests from an emotional issue.So acne, is not accepting the self or dislike of the self addictions are running from the self, a fear or not knowing how to love the self.She believed that aids was from feeling defenseless and helpless, and that no one cares. Also a denial of the self and sexual guilt,Alcoholism, is a feeling of guilt and inadequacy and self rejection elegies denying your own power.Anxiety is not trusting the flow and the process of life, arthritis is from feeling unloved or feeling criticized or resentful. Asthma is when you're feeling smothered, or inability to breathe for oneself or suppressing that love back problems and this was definitely one for me is a lack of support.And it was amazing because when I was doing these affirmations, I was married and unhappy. And I had chronic back pain for many years of my life. And then as soon as I left my husband and moved into my own place. My back problems just magically disappeared. So sometimes the body will need a lifestyle change of some sort to resolve the physical issue. So that was a very clear example of that physical problem being an emotional issue for me. Louise Hay believes that cancer was created from long standing resentment, deep secrets, or grief, eating away at oneself and and really a hatred of oneself.Things like constipation are refusing to release old ideas or being stuck in the past.Leg issues, not moving forward with your lifeissues with your ears is the capacity to hear or not hearing someone or anger over hearing.obesity, or excess fat or being overweight represents a need to protect oneself.So anytime somebody in my life has any sort of physical issue and they don't know what it is the cause I often look it up.So this work from Louise Hay has been around since the 80's and is so powerful. But I do believe we are evolving. Julia canon, who is the daughter of Dolores Cannon involved with the quantum healing hypnosis training. She has also written an incredible book called Soul Speak. Within the quantum healing method, when the sub-conscious is asked why someone is experiencing a physical discomfort, there were some things that didn't quite line up with Louise Hay's theories. What Julia found was that the right side of the body was accurate within Louise Hay ideas, and that the physical problems were emotional causes in this lifetime. But, if you have a physical issue within the left side of your body. That is a past life issue.Find Soul speak herehttps://www.goodreads.com/book/show/18950542-soul-speak-the-language-of-your-body?from_search=true&from_srp=true&qid=xU07l10rgU&rank=1There were particular Louise Hay affirmations that I would say daily. I would write some on my mirror and I found using affirmations to be really really powerful, especially throughout that time of leaving an unhappy marriage.And then once I left that unhappy marriage. Gratitude was the other thing that was a really powerful tool and practice in taking the next step in my life. So, I used the affirmations to get where I wanted to get and had this sense of more happiness and fulfillment in my life. In my marriage I felt like I was trapped, trapped in a relationship that I didn't want to be in. But then once I was out on my own. Then I became so resentful. And I really really struggled to not resent my ex husband. So, I challenged myself to a 30 day gratitude challenge. And I would love it if this is resonating for you. If you can take on this challenge. Especially if you are going through a difficult time in your life, if you're going through a divorce or breakup, or something, Even the global issue that we're having at the moment, with Melbourne still in lockdown and having many freedoms taken away. Sometimes it's been really hard to find something to be grateful for.Throughout my 30 day Gratitude challenge, I realized that I was at rock bottom in my life. I was pregnant on my own, with a toddler my little boy was 15 months old when I left my husband. And, and I was so upset with what my life had become. Because before then. I had achieved everything that I wanted to achieve. I've always been a goal orientated person. And, I've always worked really hard for my life. And for a long time. I thought that I was doing really well in life like I thought that I was a success in life. I did all these amazing things like I'd met somebody, fell in love, traveled around Europe together, got engaged, bought a house, I'd studied and got a bit of a dream job for myself at that point in working in mental health, you know that might sound strange to some people, but I was so proud of myself for working in mental health and doing the work that I was doing and I absolutely loved it and was so passionate about it. We got married, had a baby. And in securing that job for myself, I was able to have maternity leave. we did everything that society tells you to do. And yet, I was deeply unhappy with my life, and I was just at that rock bottom state where I didn't know where to go with my life anymore,So then I'm going down this spiritual path. And I really understood the power of affirmations and gratitude. And I was doing my affirmations every day. And then it came to the gratitude part of things. And I honestly really struggled. Some days, the only thing that I was grateful for was having a dishwasher. My gratitude was for really really simple things, and some days it was even hard just to find one thing that I was grateful for, because I had so much resentment and anger over, being alone with my child. And a second baby on the way. I had to sort of go on centerlink, I had lost my friends during that time too. I had so much shame that in my journey to finding happiness, seemed to look like being a failure in lifeSo I practiced gratitude. And I found one thing to be grateful for. And then when I realized that I had very little to be grateful for. I was able to have that awareness that I was at rock bottom in my life, and I was able to stop spiritually bypassing, and accept, that I was deeply disappointed in my life and that I was in the void. And that the only way was up after that, as Erin spoke about in the last episode. And then after the 30 days of practicing gratitude. I actually become more grateful and more appreciative of the life that I had, rather than resent of what I didn't have. And I started to wake up to the fact that I actually did have a lot to be grateful for. I gained a lot of perspective on my life from practicing gratitude.I was then able to piece back my life together again and work out what I did want in my life. I already tried the typical married life with kids. And the nine to five job. I realized that I did want something different,and practicing these affirmations and gratitude. Actually was my was the way that I was able to start living authentically I realised that I was unhappy in my marriage because it wasn't authentic to me. And it helped me to realize that I didn't have to live the same kind of life that everyone else did. And it was okay for me to not be happy with something that other people would be happy about. I realized from practicing gratitude that I didn't need to settle in my life. And that I could actually have a fucking incredible life, a life that I chose. And that was so powerful to me. And ever since then. I promised myself that I would never settle.And I haven't. It was probably once my daughter was born, she was like that missing piece in my life. And once she was born. I had so much gratitude. I had so much gratitude that I did meet my ex husband that we were able to create these beautiful children. And I had this realization that that was the purpose of that experience. And that my marriage wasn't a failure. Because, to create these incredible little souls that I just loved so much was the greatest blessing in my whole life. And then I had so much gratitude for my ex husband. After that, I had gratitude for my children and their health, rather than complaining about not getting enough sleep or time to myself. And I had so much gratitude for myself and my strengths, and that helped me move forward in my life, when life was really hard and depressing. So if you're going through something really difficult at the moment. Give affirmations a go. Find some gratitude in your day. And I can assure you it will transform your life.Thank you for listening to this episode of spiritual AF Please don't forget to follow this podcast.

1There was a famine in the land, besides the first famine that was in the days of Abraham. And Isaac went to Abimelech king of the Philistines, in Gerar. 2Then the Lord appeared to him and said: “Do not go down to Egypt; live in the land of which I shall tell you. 3Dwell in this land, and I will be with you and bless you; for to you and your descendants I give all these lands, and I will perform the oath which I swore to Abraham your father. 4And I will make your descendants multiply as the stars of heaven; I will give to your descendants all these lands; and in your seed all the nations of the earth shall be blessed; 5because Abraham obeyed My voice and kept My charge, My commandments, My statutes, and My laws.” 6So Isaac dwelt in Gerar. 12Then Isaac sowed in that land, and reaped in the same year a hundredfold; and the Lord blessed him. 13The man began to prosper, and continued prospering until he became very prosperous; 14for he had possessions of flocks and possessions of herds and a great number of servants. So the Philistines envied him. For more information" https://www.brosantosh.org
In this episode we will be discussing what Impact and recovery COVID-19 has had on sports professionals.In unprecedented times, it feels like an understatement given the impact COVID-19 has had on world affairs and of course team sports. We’ll drill down on how different people have been affected in vastly different degrees. This period has been a time of reviewing for advisors, to generate discussions on what this means for players and how it affects lifestyle going forward. It has also changed the players attitude towards their finance, taking more of a keen interest more than ever.Impact in Rugby Union As of the 30 June 2020, more than 50 premiership players found themselves out of contract, a large proportion of those were negotiating deals back in March. During lockdown – all those negotiations were put on hold and some players had provisional contracts rescinded. A fortunate few have found new clubs, although most are on short-term deals or reduced wages for the remainder of the season.95% of rugby players will need a second career, at least half will experience financial difficulties within five years of retirement. All occurring before the premiership’s clubs imposed 25% salary cuts.1There are a lot of considerations all parties must advise on players futures, such as cashflow, forecasting, outgoings, lifestyle in the coming years.We’ve had a range of dialogues with sports people on: potentially cutting back on savings for a monthplanned big capital purchases or outlay to be deferred or cancelledThe Rugby Professionals Association have development programs that are more crucial than ever to – prepare and educate players for life after rugby.In 2010, 30% of the RPA’s members were engaged in off-field development. In 2020, this had reached a record 91%.1The RPA has been very well positioned and has adapted in helping the players transition across to life after their professional sporting career. It has been a preconceived idea that rugby players will go into a business development or business role after sport. However, this is not always the case. The transition for life after sport is a struggle, as it’s entirely different way of living. For many years it has provided an enormous structure, daily activities, a ready-made social life. Then suddenly you have a complete disconnect. We encourage players to try and focus on getting some additional skills sets and working on outside interests.Impact on FootballersWhen COVID-19 become an extremely serious matter as lockdown was occurring. Birmingham City FC asked players earning more than £6,000 per week to defer half of their wages for the next four months.2 Hearts in Scotland then asked all staff to take 50 % pay cut.3Mackrell Solicitors had several enquiries from early April to May, who didn’t understand wage deferrals or know if they could be forced into a position with their club. And if by saying ‘no’ how this could impact them in the future.Under Scottish Law, there is a clause in players contracts that states if the Scottish FA suspends a season, then the club does have the right to postpone or change salaries. Contrasting this with English Law – contracts do not contain a force majeure clause, which is therefore difficult for an English club to propose a wage reduction or deferral. Any variation or reduction to the players salary will require the consent of the player.As football players and clubs are participants under the regulations of the Football Association (FA), it is possible for a player to take their club for unpaid wages to the FA. Under FIFA rules, they class a change in contract terms grounds for early termination. So, a player in affect, could walk away from a club, which opens the door for players to strategize their career going forward.Many conversations have also been had with players over receiving their weekly wages which has come at a surprise as the wage had dropped considerably. There appears to be a lack of understanding on the two pay component parts of their contract. First being the guaranteed weekly wage, secondly the performance wage which was non-existent as they weren’t playing games, winning matches, scoring goals to receive those bonuses. Another issue that has caused headaches and worrying times for players and clubs is that in the vast majority of cases; contacts for footballers usually terminates on the 30th June every year. There was this uncertain period while the season was continuing as to where players stood if they have a situation if their contract was running out 30 June 2020. It was made known to help clubs and players during this uncertain period, terms of the contract could be extended till the season concluded. In the future, contracts should reflect this period of questions and uncertainly raised.Although conversations were repetitive to have with players, it was welcomed as many for the first time, had an uptake and interest in their personal finance position. In the past, it is often the case parents or other family members, or everything is left to the agent to deal with. During lockdown, personal finances and contracts sparked a level of interest with players, with players reaching out to advisors to get a better understanding. A positive result from these conversations was a stronger client advisor relationship.Now is the time for players and agents to assess the financial impact of COVID-19.The requirement and value of the professional advisor during this period cannot really be understated. Sometimes it might be difficult to know who to speak to. If you’re unsure of where to go, please contact either Peter Fairchild or Mo Pasricha who would be more than happy to assist.**Sources**1 Research conducted by the Professional Player’s Federation.

Stephen Sundquist overdosed on heroin twice in one day and had to be resuscitated. If not for emergency healthcare workers, he would have died. Stephen shares his story in hopes of helping that ONE person to change their life.• Nationally Certified Intervention Professional• Business Development Representative at Clean Recovery Centers• Recovering Addict• Advocate• Public Speaker on the topic of his personal experience dealing with opioid addiction and recoveryWhere can I follow Stephen?• Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/stephen.sundquist.1• LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/stephen-sundquist-ncip-518a14100• Twitter: https://twitter.com/Ssundquist89Stephen had a promising baseball career. He had aspirations of becoming a pro baseball player, but he ended up hurting his arm and started taking prescription meds which started him down the path to a hopeless opioids addict. From a prescription all the way to heroin.At 21, his parents had an intervention on him and said he needed to get help, but at that point he was not doing it for himself, he was doing it to please his parents. He did not want to feel the way he was feeling. He went to a treatment facility for the first time his life, complained the whole way through it and did the bare minimum in a 28 day stay.Stephen resisted help for years. He was finally forced to face his problem after the paramedics resuscitated him twice in one day. On February 28, 2017, when he left work he overdosed while he was driving. The paramedics found him unresponsive in his car. He woke up in the hospital and was told he was lucky to be alive. He would have died if they did not find him. He left the hospital, went home and took another dose of heroin. The same paramedic crew that just saved him 5 hours prior to the second overdose found him unresponsive at home.Stephen went to several treatment facilities, but it wasn't until the 6th or 7th time that it finally clicked. Putting together all of the information he received through treatment, he finally started to take action and allow for help.Soon after his last treatment facility experience, he began a path to helping other people with substance abuse challenges. The best gift of sobriety is helping others and “watching the light turn on in someone else’s eyes.”Stephen has been dedicated to helping other break the chain of addiction for over 4 years and has found his life purpose in this cause.There are a lot of people that are turning to substance use to get through the anxiety of this pandemic. One of the causes of relapse at the moment is isolation, boredom, etc. It is so vital to have human connection to stay sober.How do you help a loved one? Give them an ultimatum if they do not seek help. Do not enable them.Stephen is a public speaker, particularly at schools and to young people. He covers several topics including suicide, worthlessness, hopelessness, and not fitting in, etc. He also speaks about the 4 stages of life:1) Childhood/Upbringing2) High School Years3) Addiction/Struggle4) Road To Recovery.There is no discriminiation on whom addiction affects. No one begins using drugs recreationally at a young age. It is usually a result of depression, anxiety, self-esteem issues, divorce, trauma, and so on. This is the time to intervene because as people get older, recovery becomes harder.There is no better time than RIGHT NOW to get help. Reach out. Help is out there. People are afraid, as was Stephen, to reach out, but overcoming the fear and taking that first step saves lives.If you are struggling, be sure to have a routine, self-care, meditate, pray, eat healthy, exercise, and seek help. Write a schedule, keep yourself accountable, and have a list of people to contact. Stephen had to learn to create routine by doing regular tasks like laundry, cooking, and self care. He was able to add in learning to play the guitar and has found music to be a huge tool in his recovery.It’s all about learning who you are and what you like to do. Get out into the world and experience the beauty of nature. We have to go out there and try it.Thanks to our sponsors of this show:• Forever Forward Financial - https://www.facebook.com/ForeverForwardFinancial• "When the Dust Settled" a book by Joe Potosi available at Barnes and Noble and Amazon - https://amzn.to/3ezZGmu• Don Lawson Music - http://www.reverbnation.com/donlawson• Building Beyond Me - http://www.buildingbeyond.me/mocwithtiffanyThanks for watching.

John 19:30 (NKJV)30 So when Jesus had received the sour wine, He said, “It is finished!” And bowing His head, He gave up His spirit. Number 1 -His suffering is finished. Number 2 -Our salvation is finished. Isaiah 53:4 (NKJV)4 Surely He has borne our griefsAnd carried our sorrows;Yet we esteemed Him stricken,Smitten by God, and afflicted. Hebrews 10:12–14 (NKJV)12 But this Man, after He had offered one sacrifice for sins forever, sat down at the right hand of God, 13 from that time waiting till His enemies are made His footstool. 14 For by one offering He has perfected forever those who are being sanctified. Isaiah 53:6 (NKJV)6 All we like sheep have gone astray;We have turned, every one, to his own way;And the Lord has laid on Him the iniquity of us all. Isaiah 45:17 (NKJV)17 But Israel shall be saved by the LordWith an everlasting salvation;You shall not be ashamed or disgracedForever and ever. Hebrews 9:11–15 (NKJV)11 But Christ came as High Priest of the good things to come, with the greater and more perfect tabernacle not made with hands, that is, not of this creation. 12 Not with the blood of goats and calves, but with His own blood He entered the Most Holy Place once for all, having obtained eternal redemption. 13 For if the blood of bulls and goats and the ashes of a heifer, sprinkling the unclean, sanctifies for the purifying of the flesh, 14 how much more shall the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered Himself without spot to God, cleanse your conscience from dead works to serve the living God? 15 And for this reason He is the Mediator of the new covenant, by means of death, for the redemption of the transgressions under the first covenant, that those who are called may receive the promise of the eternal inheritance. Number 3Satan’s power is finished! Colossians 2:14–15 (NKJV)14 having wiped out the handwriting of requirements that was against us, which was contrary to us. And He has taken it out of the way, having nailed it to the cross. 15 Having disarmed principalities and powers, He made a public spectacle of them, triumphing over them in it. Romans 8:1There is therefore now no condemnation to those who are in Christ Jesus, who do not walk according to the flesh, but according to the Spirit. 2 For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus has made me free from the law of sin and death. Romans 6:14 (NKJV)14 For sin shall not have dominion over you, for you are not under law but under grace. Isaiah 61:1 (NKJV)“The Spirit of the Lord God is upon Me,Because the Lord has anointed MeTo preach good tidings to the poor;He has sent Me to heal the brokenhearted,To proclaim liberty to the captives,And the opening of the prison to those who are bound; John 8:36 (NKJV)36 Therefore if the Son makes you free, you shall be free indeed. 2 Thessalonians 2:8 (NKJV)8 And then the lawless one will be revealed, whom the Lord will consume with the breath of His mouth and destroy with the brightness of His coming. 1 Corinthians 15:24–25 (NKJV)24 Then comes the end, when He delivers the kingdom to God the Father, when He puts an end to all rule and all authority and power. 25 For He must reign till He has put all enemies under His feet. Revelation 17:14 (NKJV)14 These will make war with the Lamb, and the Lamb will overcome them, for He is Lord of lords and King of kings; and those who are with Him are called, chosen, and faithful.” John 12:30–31 (NKJV)30 Jesus answered and said, “This voice did not come because of Me, but for your sake. 31 Now is the judgment of this world; now the ruler of this world will be cast out.

The Australian Sketcher of November 1873 shows von Guérard’s grand Kosciusko painting displayed at the Vienna Exhibition with other contributions from the Australian colonies. It and another of the artist’s paintings, Cape Woolamai 1872, are surrounded by photographs and maps, produce, flora and fauna, as well as a case of mineral samples and other specimens of interest.1There is some irony here. Von Guérard detailed the lichen on rocks in North-east view from the northern top of Mount Kosciusko – most noticeably on the platform on which the cloaked figure stands – but other parts are less convincing. When von Guérard arrived in Australia in 1852 he was already an established artist, having trained in Rome and Düsseldorf. He had probably seen works by Friedrich; Carus’s published writings also circulated widely during the 1830s and 1840s, the periods of von Guérard’s study at the Staatliche Kunstakademie. In his new southern homeland the artist familiarised himself with native flora by sketching in the Melbourne Botanical Gardens, exactly the close observation of nature promoted by Carus. Von Guérard’s works are an intriguing mix of topographical accuracy and German traditions of the Sublime: we find a range of protagonists throughout his oeuvre, figures often tiny, seen at an angle or with their backs to the picture plane. As Bruce puts it, von Guérard thus synthesises active, intelligent observation with a ‘predominance of feeling over reasoning’.2 In 1862 von Guérard joined an expedition to the Australian Alps. Led by the Bavarian scientist Georg von Neumayer, the expedition was commissioned by the Government of Victoria, part of an international project to measure the Earth’s magnetic fields. As well as a geophysicist and an artist, the party comprised Neumayer’s assistant, two guides and his dog Hector – all of whom are immortalised in the painting. Von Guérard made a number of sketches during the course of the expedition. In Melbourne the following year he produced North-east view from the northern top of Mount Kosciusko.3It is a major painting, regarded as one of his finest artistically, and most accurate topographically. In North-east view from the northern top of Mount Kosciusko areas of the foreground and the mound of large boulders at right are particularly perplexing. Indeed as Bonyhady tells, the rocks were introduced by von Guérard to emphasise human insignificance. They serve to provide a link between foreground, the distant mountains and the sky, that records the passage from heavy rain to bright sunshine.4Most importantly, in aesthetic terms, the rocks echo those on the peaks at the centre of the composition, gloriously patterned by the snow that has melted to reveal the grassy slopes underneath. Mount Kosciusko, an anglicised spelling, was named by the explorer Count Paul Strzelecki in 1840 after the Polish-Lithuanian general Tadeusz Kociuszko.5 The peak was subsequently discovered to be slightly lower than its neighbour, Mount Townsend – although in order that Mount Kosciuszko retain the distinction of the highest mountain in Australia, the names were reversed.
