Man Says He Visited Heaven, Met Jesus During Near-Death Experience Watch this video at- https://youtu.be/3FQmcCFZ8Ng?si=x4U0Eezqh21CuDDg CBN News 2.28M subscribers 123,685 views May 16, 2024 Randy Kay's "afterlife" experience still leaves him visibly emotional as he recounts details of visiting heaven, meeting Jesus, and returning to share his harrowing journey. Kay, author of the book, "Heaven Stormed: A Heavenly Encounter Reveals Your Assignment in the End Time Outpouring and Tribulation," told CBN News he was once a denier of near-death experience claims — until he faced his own purported heaven journey. He recalled his own afterlife experience, which began with a sore calf. At first, he thought he had strained a muscle, but while working out and going on a bike ride, his calf began to swell. "I was able to make it back home and then went to the doctor to get an anti-inflammatory prescription, and lo and behold, when I pressed my heel into the floor as the doctor had suggested, I collapsed," Kay said. "And I was rushed to the emergency room." It turns out, the pain and swelling were due to seven blood clots that had formed. He then contracted Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA), a drug-resistant bacteria. "The doctor said I was a walking dead man," Kay said. "And then the septic shock which entered into my body caused a traffic jam in my vessels, my vascular system." The chaos landed Kay in a dire situation — one that he believes sent him to heaven. "Everything went dark initially and the next moment of recall, I was looking down on my body," he said. "I was being pulled by this light. I know that sounds cliche, almost, but it's absolutely true." Kay continued, "I was in a kind of very vague, ethereal space initially where I saw these figures in front of me, and they were warring against each other. There's no other way of putting it." After his return from his after-death experience, Kay discerned he was watching spiritual warfare play out. Regardless of what people choose to believe, Kay's physical body was dead at this point, making these memories and claims quite fascinating. "My heart had stopped," he said, noting that hospital records indicate he was clinically dead for 30 minutes and 49 seconds. During that time, Kay believes he was experiencing heaven, noting he was aware that her was himself but suddenly was seeing and visualizing the world quite differently. "I was seeing things, hearing things beyond which I would be able to do otherwise in my body," he said.

Episode Summary: It's Episode 105, and I'm calling this the Tony Womack episode—a tribute to a player I got to know personally while he was coaching my son's high school team. Womack brought incredible energy to the game, and I hope this episode captures some of that as we dive into all things Cubs. The Cubs are off to a hot 9-2 start in spring training, and while wins don't mean much in March, it's been exciting to see young players step up. Today, I tackle a listener mailbag, covering everything from bullpen battles, underrated hitters, and the Cubs' roster depth, to whether the front office made the right moves this offseason. Plus, I'm giving away five Cubs PS Plus hats to some lucky listeners! Key Topics Covered:

Interview with Eric Zaunscherb, Chairman & CEO of GR SilverOur previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/gr-silver-mining-tsx-v-grsl-time-to-restructure-and-rebuild-3878Recording date: 29th of November, 2024GR Silver Mining (TSXV:GRSL) is poised to capitalize on the resurgence of Mexico's mining industry under the new administration of President Claudia Sheinbaum. With its flagship Plomosas silver project in Sinaloa, strengthened balance sheet, and strategic vision for consolidation, GR Silver offers investors a compelling opportunity to gain leveraged exposure to rising silver prices.The Plomosas project encompasses the past-producing Plomosas mine and the highly prospective San Marcial area. The Plomosas mine, which boasts 7.4 km of underground development, is fully permitted and represents a near-term monetization opportunity through a potential partnership. However, the real excitement lies in San Marcial, where GR Silver has delineated a 134 Moz silver equivalent resource across indicated and inferred categories.San Marcial hosts a unique geological model with wide, high-grade silver mineralization in hydrothermal breccias and feeder structures. Drilling highlights, like the 102m intercept grading 308 g/t Ag, showcase the potential for further resource growth. GR Silver's geological team, led by President and COO Marcio Fonseca, is confident in the potential for low-cost, bulk underground mining at the project.Over the past year, GR Silver has executed an impressive financial turnaround, eliminating a $28M working capital deficit by divesting a non-core asset. The company now has positive working capital, no debt, and a modest cash balance to resume exploration. Management is confident in its ability to raise additional funds as needed, given the compelling investment thesis.Beyond exploration, GR Silver is actively seeking opportunities to participate in the ongoing consolidation of the Mexican silver industry. The company's ideal acquisition target would have existing production, a development-stage project, and exploration upside. With a disciplined approach to M&A and a focus on value creation, GR Silver is well-positioned to build a leading silver company in the region.The macro backdrop for silver is also highly supportive, with demand from the solar industry expected to grow from 16% to 19% of total supply in 2024. As Mexico's new government takes a more pragmatic approach to mining, the combination of rising silver prices and increased investor interest should drive a re-rating of GR Silver's valuation.

To end a busy week we have some huge stories this morning. Microsoft filed with the SEC, including a vote in December on investing in Bitcoin. The US government appeared to be moving assets from one of their crypto wallets that contained funds seized from the Bitfinex hack, but the movements suggest it is, in fact, a hack. Solana's native token hits a record high against Ethereum's, which — alongside other performance data — resurrects the debate over a "flippening." And finally, Polymarket has identified the whale who has $28M worth of positions backing Trump to win the US presidential election next month. So, grab yourself a coffee, and let's get into it!Further reading:Microsoft shareholder proposes firm look into investing in BitcoinUS government crypto wallets hacked for $20M — Arkham IntelligenceThe real flippening?

The reality is within 3 short years he took massive action and calculated risk to build up a self storage portfolio worth over $28M. He's also started HireLATAM, an offshore staff business that's growing steadily. We discuss if he'd want to sell, what he wants to do next, and trying not to get bored at this stage.

Biden's Crackdown on the Internet Is WORSE Than You Think. Glenn TV. We're being played: The Left isn't “saving democracy,” and the internet is NOT free. The Murthy v. Missouri Supreme Court case is just the tip of the iceberg. The pro-speech plaintiffs argue the Biden White House colluded with social media platforms to censor speech they don't like. Speech on topics like COVID origins, masks, vaccines, lockdowns, the Hunter Biden laptop, climate change, mail-in voting, and election integrity. There is much more of this censorship in our future. Thanks to a FOIA request and eventual lawsuit brought by America First Legal, AFL was able to uncover a report by U.S. Agency for International Development that was intended for internal use only. Glenn digs into this report called the “Dis-information Primer,” which provides a disturbing insider's view of our government's strategies for dealing with rampant so-called “information disorder.” And instead of debunking speech it doesn't like, the government employs a strategy called “pre-bunking.” Wait, what?! We are up against a SPRAWLING network of government agencies, think tanks, and the largest companies in the world, all collaborating in multiple ways with the same end-goal: to censor unapproved speech in media and especially online.

Locked On Giants – Daily Podcast On The San Francisco Giants
The San Francisco Giants have signed one of the best relievers on the market. The catch? They plan to use him as a starting pitcher. The Giants and Jordan Hicks are reportedly in agreement on a four-year, $44M contract. Hicks, who at 27 years old is the sixth-youngest free agent this offseason, averaged over 100 mph on his sinking fastball last season and is an extreme ground ball pitcher. He profiles as a high-end reliever, but the SF Giants are going a non-traditional route and plan to put him in the rotation. Hicks was a starter at times throughout his minor league career and has made a handful of starts in the majors. What does this mean about the Giants' rotation? Does the addition of Robbie Ray, paired with today's reported addition of Hicks, take them out on remaining top starters Blake Snell and Jordan Montgomery? At first glance, when looking at the Opening Day projected rotation, it shouldn't. But when we flash forward to what the Giants' rotation will look like once Ray and Alex Cobb are ready to come back, it's entirely possible that the Giants are done adding starters. Whether or not that's a bad plan is up for debate. But the Giants could instead pivot to the position player market at this point. Hicks being another extreme ground ball pitcher, the SF Giants could look to bolster their infield defense with a signing of, say, Matt Chapman, who is an elite defender at third base. Cody Bellinger remains an option as well, and he'd probably play corner outfield and first base (Bellinger is capable of playing center, but the SF Giants signed Jung Hoo Lee to be their center fielder earlier this winter). With only about $28M left before reaching the first luxury tax threshold, it's unlikely the Giants make more than one more significant signing ($20M+ AAV).

Finding faith in the Lord Jesus Christ will help us have the power to endure and overcome challenges in life. ""Many of you are now passing through physical, mental, and emotional trials that could cause you to cry out, 'When I've tried all my life to be good, why has this happened to me?' Now I wish to encourage those who in the midst of hard trials who feel their faith may be fading under the onslaught of troubles. There seems to me no better answer to the question of why trials come, and what we are to do, than the words of the Lord Himself, who passed through trials for us more terrible than we can imagine. You may have seen the need for that foundation as I have, at the bedside of someone ready to give up the fight to endure to the end. If the foundation of faith is not embedded in our hearts, the power to endure will crumble. [Mother yelling to her son] Moroni, the son of Mormon in the Book of Mormon told us how. He teaches the simple and sweet truth that acting on even a twig of faith allows God to grow it. That particle of faith -most precious- which you should protect, and use to whatever extent you can, is faith in the Lord Jesus Christ. You and I have faith, that the way to rise through and above trials, is to believe that there is a Balm in Gilead, and that the Lord has promised, 'I will not forsake thee. 'Curing does not come automatically through the passage of time, but it does take time. Getting older does not do it alone, it is serving God and others persistently with full heart and soul that turns testimony of truth into unbreakable spiritual strength. If we have faith in Jesus Christ, the hardest, as well as the easiest of times in life can be a blessing. In all conditions all we can choose the right with the guidance of the spirit. We have the gospel of Jesus Christ shape and guide our lives if we choose it. We never need to feel that we are alone or unloved in the Lord's service because we never are. We can feel the love of God. The Savior has promised angels are on our left and on our right to bear us up, and He always keeps His word. His love is unfailing I so testify, in the name of Jesus Christ, Amen. This is an edited version of this selection.

For the Strength of Youth To help you find the Way and to help you make Christ's doctrine the guiding influence in your life, The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints has prepared a new resource, a revised version of For the Strength of Youth. For over 50 years, For the Strength of Youth has been a guide for generations of Latter-day Saint youth. I always keep a copy in my pocket, and I share it with people who are curious about our standards. It has been updated and refreshed to better cope with the challenges and temptations of our day. The new version of For the Strength of Youth is available online in 50 different languages and will also be available in print. It will be a significant help for making choices in your life. Please embrace it as your own and share it with your friends. This new version of For the Strength of Youth is subtitled A Guide for Making Choices. To be very clear, the best guide you can possibly have for making choices is Jesus Christ. Jesus Christ is the strength of youth. So the purpose of For the Strength of Youth is to point you to Him. It teaches you eternal truths of His restored gospel—truths about who you are, who He is, and what you can accomplish with His strength. It teaches you how to make righteous choices based on those eternal truths.13 It's also important to know what For the Strength of Youth does not do. It doesn't make decisions for you. It doesn't give you a “yes” or “no” about every choice you might ever face. For the Strength of Youth focuses on the foundation for your choices. It focuses on values, principles, and doctrine instead of every specific behavior. The Lord, through His prophets, has always been guiding us in that direction. He is pleading with us to “increase [our] spiritual capacity to receive revelation.”14 He is inviting us to “hear Him.”15 He is calling us to follow Him in higher and holier ways.16 And we are learning in a similar way every week in Come, Follow Me.
