The ark of the covenant sits at the heart of the tabernacle. And the message it speaks is that an imperfect people need a pathway to a perfect God. And God in His wisdom has provided that pathway. (Matt 5:17-18, Ex 25:1-22, Deut 10:1–5, Heb 10:1, Gal 3:23-27, Jn 14:6, John 1:29, I Cor 6:11, Jn 8:12, Jn 6:35, Jn 14:14, Matt 27:51, Heb 9:11-14, Heb 4:14-16, I Cor 2:2, Acts 17:27)
Just as you might prepare for a special family event or meal, it’s good for us to prepare for the Lord’s Supper. This isn’t a legalistic chore; when a special occasion is a joy to us, preparing for it is part of the anticipation. Steve Buckeridge joins us again from the UK to share how we can prepare for the weekly breaking of bread in a direction that’s Godward, saintward, and inward. Scriptures Referenced: Mat 5:23-24; 26:17-20; 1 Cor 10:16; 11:17-22; Heb 13:15; Visit PracticologyPodcast.com for more episodes.

Christ not only dealt with sin, but must “destroy him who had the power of death, that is, the devil” (Heb 2:14).
John 13:5 Then He poured water into the basin, and began to wash the disciples' feet and to wipe them with the towel with which He was girded. Imagine a days worth of dust on each foot. It was a daily task of perhaps the lowest servant in the average home. Apparently this task had been overlooked by the event planner, but it was the will of the Father for His Son to exemplify His love in a way that foreshadowed what He wanted them (and us) to do to one another—serve one another by loving with Him. In the same way their feet got covered with dirt as they walked in this world, so did their souls get dirtied each day by living in this world. The writer of Hebrews wrote, “Encourage one another day after day, as long as it is still called ‘Today,' so that none of you will be hardened by the deceitfulness of sin (Heb. 3:13). Like Jesus, in humility, lowliness, gentleness, and passion for the glory of God, we can serve each other in love. It's one way Jesus will love His own to the very end. So put on His towel and be prepared today to serve—that is, encourage, forgive, and pray the blood of Jesus over whoever He puts in your path.

De signalen uit het Witte Huis zijn allesbehalve eenduidig wat betreft de oorlog in Iran. In de ene verklaring lijkt Trump te suggereren dat het conflict snel voorbij kan zijn, terwijl hij even later waarschuwt dat de gevechten nog weken kunnen aanhouden. Ondertussen lopen de spanningen in de regio verder op. Amerikaanse militairen zijn omgekomen bij Iraanse tegenaanvallen en de olieprijzen reageren nerveus op de escalatie. Tegelijkertijd wordt de binnenlandse politieke druk groter: de Amerikaanse kiezer is zelden enthousiast over oorlogsslachtoffers of stijgende benzineprijzen. De blokkade van de Straat van Hormuz snijdt een vijfde van de mondiale oliehandel af en duwt de wereldeconomie richting recessierisico. De Verenigde Staten voelen ondanks hun eigen productie de pijn aan de pomp, Europese dieselprijzen breken records en bondgenoten sturen schepen richting de Golf. In Iran ontstaat nieuw leiderschap na uitschakeling van Ali Khamenei, maar de militaire infrastructuur en raketcapaciteit blijven grotendeels intact. Intussen wordt een dodelijke Tomahawk-inslag op een meisjesschool weggewuifd met ongeloofwaardige verklaringen en blijkt Oekraïense dronetechnologie een gemiste kans voor Washington. Over de Amerika Podcast In de Amerika Podcast nemen Bernard Hammelburg en Jan Postma je mee naar het Amerika van nu: een land dat onder Donald Trump opnieuw in rap tempo verandert. Wat betekent zijn beleid voor Amerikanen in rode én blauwe staten, voor de democratie? Wat is er nog over van the American Dream? Wat verandert Trumps koers voor ons in Europa? Hier hoor je de verhalen van de Amerikanen zelf. We nemen je mee naar het land van adembenemende landschappen, countrymuziek uit de autoradio en diners langs de highway. Maar natuurlijk ook juist naar de mavericks die deze clichés doorbreken. De Amerika Podcast zoekt naar de ziel van Amerika.

Saved From Judgments (1) (audio) David Eells – 3/11/26 I'm going to share some older prophecies with you about the judgments God is sending on the rebellious apostates. We often receive scriptures in our morning prayer meetings of these warnings. Judgments on America and Its Ministries Shirley Hinkle - 11/07/2007 (David's notes in red) Thank you for your website. It has been a wealth of insight and revelation into the Word of God for me and my friends with whom I share your site. I have never shared these or other dreams that I have had in the past with any website/ministry, but only with five close friends. One of the prayer warriors in our church, whom I shared the dreams with this last week, said, “You must send it to Brother David Eells. You see, I was in prayer Sunday morning and God spoke to my heart and said, “Remember the dreams of the five judgments? IT'S NOW! It's not only the false, sinful church leadership that is under judgment, but judgment on this nation, America, that you are seeing fulfilled.” (In the dreams below God used individuals to represent this apostate leadership. These judgments on them will also judge America. This is judgment is on the secular and religious harlot. Update 3/11/26 - God is now raising up new leadership with power.) Because of the nature of the dreams, I took out the name of the pastor and the people associated with the church where we went for five years. (Shirley is typed as a prophetess and the true church in some of these dreams.) Dream - First of 5 Judgments - 07/03/2005 I dreamed that our former pastor walked into the room where a group of us were standing. I wondered to myself, what is he doing here? I thought, maybe we are to pray for him, so I walked over to him and laid my hand on his head. I said to him, “You are full of lust and pornography”. (I once saw the statistics of how many ministers were into this, and I was shocked.) As I said these words, his head turned to mush under my hand (a mind corrupted by sin). I pulled my hand back, revolted, and turned to walk away, and as I did, he leered and sneered at me. I started to wake up and that is when I saw he was a shell of a man full of demonic spirits. (This represents a generation of apostates, meaning back-slidden, ministers as in the rest of the dreams.) God spoke into my heart and said, “Romans chapters 1 & 3. As he stole from My people, I am taking his mind from him; He is given over to those spirits. (Update 3/11/26 – This has been happening) This is the first of 5 judgments I have shown you”. Dream - Judgment # 2 of 5 - 07/11/2005 All of these people were in booths at a restaurant (Churches where spiritual food, as in the Word, is supposed to be fed). I walked in and it was the congregation of a former church. I began to go from table to table under the anointing and exposing all of the lies of the teachings and sins in the lives of the people. Some people looked at me like, “What are you doing?” They had no comprehension at all. Others said, “Yes, we see it,” and then others were getting very mad, angry at me for telling and exposing all the lies. I looked behind me, and there were 3 of the prayer warriors who had left the church at the same time, as one person, and they were represented as who they are in real life. I raised my right arm to heaven and began to pray in the spirit with a loud voice and with authority. Then, as I was walking out, I turned to the people and said, “The associate pastor was never supposed to leave his wife for the other woman. He played the harlot. He sold his body to prostitution. HE LEFT HER!” (Another common problem among apostate pastors.) Then the next scene in my dream, my husband and I are walking down a hallway away from the restaurant (I.e. away from their teachings). We could hear the former pastor from the other side yelling. We knew he was mad at me for exposing him. He was yelling really loud as he came around the corner, but the weird thing was, he was walking on his knees. His legs were twisted up behind him, and he was being led by his head usher. (I.e. Spiritually crippled and unable to walk with the Lord.) For a split second, I felt pity for this man who was all disfigured, and then I saw his face as he was yelling. My husband and I just stood there quietly watching at first. This pastor was so mad and yelling so loudly. His hair was all matted and snarled, with his face all contorted. Then all of a sudden I looked at him and said, “Everything you have stolen from My people (which is their walk with the Lord), I have taken from you. Judgment has come to your house”. I then brought my right hand down like a gavel was in it. This pastor was nothing but blackness and darkness. This was judgment # 2 of 5 that God had shown me. Dream - Judgment 3 & 4 of 5 - 08/08/2005 I dreamed last night of a lady (the true church) in a church with a lot of people she knew. Some of them walked up to her and asked if she would like to go on a road trip with them; she said yes and got in the car. As the others were getting in, they were snickering and laughing behind her back (mocking her). When they got down the road, they took out a needle and injected it into the woman (filled her with false doctrine) to alter her mind. They took her to a house (apostate church) and it was full of children (of God). The woman was then tormented in many ways. She kept trying to hide the children in different parts of the house so that they would not be harmed. (Trying to save them from the false doctrine) She knew that the ultimate goal of these people was to kill her and the children (spiritually) after they had their fun and sport with her. A man walked into the house. The woman went up to him and said, “We have to save the children. These people are going to kill us”. He just started laughing at her. It was then that she knew he was one of them. She then hid the children in different parts of the house again. Now, instead of me seeing this lady, I am her (the true church), and I am walking down a hallway. I come to an elderly woman (the apostate church showing signs of years under the curse) and I say to her with a loud voice, “The Lord says unto you, you are now forever separated from the presence of God; you will no longer experience the presence of God”. My right hand came down like a gavel, and I said, “This is the Judgment of God on you”. (Update 3/11/26 – These churches are dead now) She turned from me and walked away; then turned to come back, and I saw it was the pastor's sister-in-law. She was like a mad woman, all crazy. I turned and walked away from her, and as I did, I said, “Lord, what was that all about?” He spoke to me and said, “That is the Church that holds the Truth in unrighteousness (truth they refuse to walk in) and turns my grace into lasciviousness (which is a license to sin).” As I am walking away, I come to a young lady who is not one of the children because they are hidden in different parts of the house. I say to her, “The Lord says unto you, I will never again look upon you with favor or content. You will toil and labor hard all the rest of your days (the curse in Gen.3:19). This is the judgment unto you”. My right hand then came down like a gavel. As the girl turned to walk away from me, I saw it was a teenager in the congregation, the daughter of the church secretary. As I was waking up from this dream, the Lord spoke into my heart, “This is the judgment #3 & 4 of the 5 that I showed you”. I asked the Lord, “What did the teenager represent?” and He quickly answered, “Rebellion; the rebellious ones”. The lady in the beginning is the true church, and the enemy is trying to steal the mind of God's people, by altering their thinking and doping them with falsehoods. (that please the flesh) They are laughing and mocking the True Church of the Living God. The children represent the innocent that God has hidden under his wings, till the storm passes by. (God has hidden some innocents in the apostate church, which He will deliver. Isa 26:20 Come, my people, enter thou into thy chambers, and shut thy doors about thee: hide thyself for a little moment, until the indignation be overpast. ) Dream - Judgment # 5 of 5 - 09/30/2005 I dreamt last night that we were at our former church. They were having a camp meeting. I was volunteering in the kitchen (where the spiritual food of teaching is prepared), and the pastor's wife (representing the apostate church) walked up to me and said that someone was very mad at me for being here. She said, “You are not supposed to be here”. I said that all I was trying to do was to help. She never said to stay or even tried to defend me. As I was sitting there, a woman walked up to the pastor's wife (the apostate church) and said to her... “It's beginning to rain, You are a flower that will die, Where your petals fall, There they will lie”. (great falling away) My friends who were standing with me started weeping, went over and hugged her goodbye; I stayed, watching and weeping. I tried to warn, to explain, but there was nothing to say. The pastor's wife looked at me with sadness and a knowing. I said to her, “All I know is that I love God with all of my heart, and I know you do too”. She then began to weep. (The church who loves God in their born-again spirit but does not love Him enough to obey so that their soul is born again will die. Rom.8:13 for if ye live after the flesh, ye must die; but if by the Spirit ye put to death the deeds of the body, ye shall live. 14 For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, these are sons of God. Joh.14:15 If ye love me, ye will keep my commandments. 1Pe.1:22 Seeing ye have purified your souls in your obedience to the truth unto unfeigned love of the brethren, love one another from the heart fervently: 23 having been begotten [born] again, not of corruptible seed, but of incorruptible, through the word of God, which liveth and abideth. 24 For, All flesh is as grass, And all the glory thereof as the flower of grass. The grass withereth, and the flower falleth: 25 But the word of the Lord abideth for ever. As was said in the prophetic poem, the flower, a symbol of all that is beautiful about the flesh, will fall. What people think is beautiful about their fleshly religion will die.) As we were leaving and driving away from the Church, it began to rain, on both sides of the road, the flowers were dead and the animals too. I looked at my husband and started weeping so hard (The grace of life will be taken away from the apostate church in their idolatry with the flesh.). He said to me, “My brother (representing the apostate church) is dying, so it must still be before February”. I said, “I know”. (My husband's brother had died the year before, in February from bladder cancer.) This is Judgment #5. The first 5 judgment dreams on apostate ministries are coming to pass now. As the Lord said, “IT'S NOW!” This was said in 2005. The apostate ministries are losing their minds and walking as cripples more every day because this is what they have done to God's people. Since history or “His-story” always repeats, very soon this will be spoken of them as it was of their forefathers: Mat.13:10 And the disciples came, and said unto him, Why speakest thou unto them in parables? 11 And he answered and said unto them, Unto you it is given to know the mysteries of the kingdom of heaven, but to them it is not given. 12 For whosoever hath, to him shall be given, and he shall have abundance: but whosoever hath not, from him shall be taken away even that which he hath. 13 Therefore speak I to them in parables; because seeing they see not, and hearing they hear not, neither do they understand. 14 And unto them is fulfilled the prophecy of Isaiah, which saith, By hearing ye shall hear, and shall in no wise understand; And seeing ye shall see, and shall in no wise perceive: 15 For this people's heart is waxed gross, And their ears are dull of hearing, And their eyes they have closed; Lest haply they should perceive with their eyes, And hear with their ears, And understand with their heart, And should turn again, And I should heal them. (As in Jesus' day, these same ones will persecute the true church of the “called out ones”.) Here are a few more dreams Shirley sent us: Dream - 10/20/2007 - Baby Boy - First Tribulation Judgment I walked into a church filled with people. I recognized people from our former church, all standing around talking and carrying on with their programs. As I walked down the hall, I saw a small baby boy in the trash. I picked him up and said, “You don't belong here in the trash”. (This shows the apostate church's disregard for the fruit of Christ revealed in the man-child body in their midst. It also represents their hatred for the first-fruits Man-child ministry [Rev.12:5,6] that is to lead this church into that fruit, just as their forefathers did in Jesus' day.) As I was taking him out of the trash, the pastor's wife was there and was so mad at me. She said to me, “You think you are going to get away with this? You are going to pay!” (They hate those who value the fruit of Christ just as they did in the Book of Acts. Those who come out from among them will take the fruit of Christ with them.) I took him outside the church and walked over to my husband to show him the baby. The baby was playing and cooing in my arms. I was so upset that he had been thrown away like that, discarded in the trash. As I was playing with the baby and taking care of him and loving on him, my husband said, “You have to take him back”. I said it wasn't right that they put him in the trash, but my husband said, “He has to go back”. (Those who love the fruit will see Him in their lives. Like the Shulamite bride in Song of Solomon, they will take Him back to their mother church.) SoS.3:3 The watchmen that go about the city found me; [To whom I said], Saw ye him whom my soul loveth? 4 It was but a little that I passed from them, When I found him whom my soul loveth: I held him, and would not let him go, Until I had brought him into my mother's house, And into the chamber of her that conceived me. As I was walking back to the church, I had to cross a street; the cars were flying past me on both sides. I was in the middle of the intersection and was almost getting run over by each car that passed (those on the broad road will not appreciate the greatness in their midst). I held the baby close and kept trying to get across. As I walked back into the church to take the baby back, I was so sad. Nobody saw me or acknowledged that the baby had been returned and saved from the trash. They continued with their programs they were all doing. (The return of the man-child or His fruit in the bride's heart will not be appreciated by most when He returns to give a witness to them as Jesus did. This will be the first judgment of the tribulation in Revelation 6:1,2 -- the White Horse Rider, which brings all of the other riders upon the earth. This will be as when Moses came to set Israel free from bondage to the Egyptians. He brought all the judgments to accomplish this.) Josh and the baby boy represent both the fruit of Christ in their midst that they have rejected and the first-fruits Man-child ministry who is to lead them through the wilderness tribulation. As the Lord said, this is a “judgment on this nation, America,” for the apostate church has not represented Christ to them in being the salt needed to preserve them. This false church is leading America to destruction. Dream - 09/28/2007 - America's Judgment I walked into a large convention center full of young people. They were in groups all over the building. Some were standing and talking, others were bowed in groups in prayer. God spoke to my heart and said that His Holy Spirit is searching the heart of America. His Holy Spirit is going throughout this nation searching out those who are seeking His face in this time of turmoil. Searching this generation, for it is the last generation... And it shall not pass until we see the fulfillment of His Word. As I walked among them, I could hear them talking to each other and saying, “What do you think? Who will you vote for?” and others were giving their opinion on the matters of our world. God then spoke to me and said they are going by human reasoning; they are not looking to Me, the Author and Finisher of their Faith; they are searching out man's ways and not My ways. As I was walking among them, Hillary Clinton walked into the building and started walking among them also. God spoke into my heart and said, “This is Romans 1 being fulfilled in your sight. This is the first judgment coming into being on this nation in its FULLNESS. This nation is being given over.” God showed me that Clinton also was getting a feel of where they stood and what they were thinking and talking about. That we as a people in this nation are being marked, and we will be known for what we stand for in these final days. The ones who are weeping and mourning, standing in Truth and Righteousness, will be separated and marked as in Ezekiel 9. I then walked up to her and said, “You will be put in office, but it will bring this country down.” I knew that she represented in the spirit this nation's final apostasy against God in its fullness. (This was a warning! Although she served herself in many offices, including first political lady [ Link! ], the highest office was denied her because of urgent prayers for mercy.) Abandonment of a previous loyalty, the woman, this nation leaving her natural affection for God, her family, her children, given over to her lusts and vile affections. I then said, “This is our judgment!” I said this very loudly and pleading, knowing we are in judgment... I then said, “Tell America to REPENT!” But she just looked past me like I wasn't there and hadn't said anything to her. She walked away with a smirk on her face. God spoke into my heart and said, “Who knowing the judgment of God, that they which commit such things are worthy of death, not only do the same, but have pleasure in them that do them”. (Rom.1:32) Dream - 10/01/2007 - Blow the Trumpet, Sound the Alarm, Our Judgment Has Come. My husband and I were standing by the riverbank; it was flowing over the top like a waterfall, so pretty. I knew that it was America in her false sense of security and prosperity -- everything flowing along so smoothly. I said with a loud voice, “It is getting ready to overflow (the U.S. leaving her God-given natural boundaries) like never before and bring destruction. It will destroy everything. (In Jeremiah 25, Babylon, which is called the great eagle [U.S.] in Ezekiel 17, brought the cup of wrath to all nations and then they brought it to her. “When the enemy comes in like a flood”. After the Man-child is anointed in Rev 6:2 comes World War. Rev.6:4 And another horse came forth, a red horse: and to him that sat thereon it was given to take peace from the earth, and that they should slay one another: and there was given unto him a great sword.) Everything that the people have put their trust in, in one moment it is going to be completely swept away before their eyes. God said, “Blow the trumpet in Zion. Sound the alarm!” I turned to my right and said, “Blow the trumpet”. My husband then picked up a trumpet and put it to his mouth, and started to blow. God is asking the men of God to once again put the trumpet to their mouths and blow, sound the alarm, proclaim the Truth. To warn the people to get their eyes off of this world and all that it holds, for it (that is, peace, security and prosperity) is all getting ready to be taken from them. God then said again, “Warn the people, it will destroy everything. Blow the trumpet!” Again, I turned to my right and said, “Blow the trumpet, warn the people”. My husband continued to blow the trumpet. God spoke to my heart and said, “Don't stop warning, don't stop telling, don't stop!” People were walking around like nothing was going to happen. Some were getting very angry with me for yelling in a loud voice. I recognized some of the people. My husband continued to blow the trumpet. Again, God spoke to my heart, “Even if the people whom you know don't like it and get angry with you, you must never stop blowing the trumpet! You must always proclaim Truth, no matter what happens”. I then knew that this was the fulfillment of the judgment that God had told me... He spoke to me and said, “A nation that forgets God is given over and this is the judgment... Deuteronomy 28 (which is the curse on the rebellious)... Your houses, your land, your children, your possessions, your freedom, your very lives will be taken from you in judgment.” Flood of Judgment G.C.- 04/16/2008 (David's notes in red) I had one of the most vivid and real dreams in recent memory. In this dream, I was told by God that a great flood would destroy the world. He told me this before it even happened. As the days went by, after I had received His message, water started covering the Earth. The source of the water did not seem to be rainwater but came from the ground. (I recall that in the flood account of Noah, some of the water came from the fountains of the deep and this is what was happening in my dream.) It seemed like for weeks the water covered the world and after each passing day, the people had to abandon homes and buildings and move toward higher ground. I was just in awe of what was happening and tried my best to warn the people that this was God's judgment and that they needed to repent to be saved. I recall that I was never scared or frightened because of the fact that I had been warned before this started to happen, which gave me comfort. I spent the last days pleading with people about repentance but very few took heed. The last thing I remember is that I was at one of the highest points of land, and the water kept rising. I woke up before I could find out the outcome of the dream. I know that another great flood will not occur, but I do feel this was symbolic. Spiritually, a flood of judgment will cover the earth; it will come out of the earth from hell. The demons will administer the legal curse of the waters of the Word on the unrepentant. In the natural, we have seen mass flooding, fires, hurricanes, and large earthquakes all around the world, some man made, and the Tribulation hasn't even arrived. Refuge from Judgment Sister R. from CA - 11/15/2010 (David's notes in red) I was outside (I am not sure of the place). I looked up at the heavens and noticed that suddenly the clouds turned dark. They were storm clouds. (Observing coming bad events from heaven, judgments, tribulations, and trials are near, and we can see them coming.) Then one opened up and the water gushed out, as if someone had poured a bucket of water out of it. (Sudden destructions from heaven whether through man or nature.) Then suddenly, the clouds of this water turned into this huge tidal wave. (Huge destructive events from heaven.) I realized that I could not outrun it. So, I ran into this building (I believe it was a hotel). (By our own strength we cannot escape. The hotel is the house of God. As with a hotel, we are individual buildings that are “builded together” to make up one building, His house [Ephesians 2:19-22]. Symbolizing revival. Many people find their way into the Kingdom as a refuge, an ark, from the wave, which represents the judgment on this world. 1Co.4:11 Even unto this present hour we both hunger, and thirst, and are naked, and are buffeted, and have no certain dwelling-place.) I was with a group of people and we all went to the upper floors of the building. (A spiritual place of safety in heavenly places in Christ. Psa.94:22 But the LORD hath been my high tower, And my God the rock of my refuge.) The water came into the building, and we had to go to higher floors for safety. (Waters of judgment will drive God's people higher in the refuge of Christ as Psalm 91 shows.) At one point, the water flooded onto the same floor where I was with this group of people. (We will see and share the experiences and overcome through faith.) I thought I was going to die, but I had peace because I knew that I was going to be with the Lord. (Trusting the Lord with life and death. Job 13:15 Though He slay me, yet will I trust Him.) But the floor we were on (the side of this building where we were) had an elevator and a place where we could reach safety. (The elevator is the rest. You don't have to attempt to save yourselves by your own works; just get closer to God by grace through faith in Him.) When the floods came into this floor, not only could I see this elevator, but there was higher ground on this floor where we could step up to reach safety. (Praise the Lord! He provides a place of refuge every step of the way as in Psa.91.) We had working cell phones and light in the hotel. One person, I don't know who, received a phone call. (We have the ability to pray and abide in the Light of the Scriptures. “Working” cell phones mean effective communication with each other and the Lord.) I thought it was strange that we always had light because normally, if that situation had really happened, the electricity would go out. (There was light in Goshen when the rest of Egypt had none. The Lord will not withdraw His light or power in judgment situations. Do not fear, no matter what form it takes. The Lord will give great assurance.) During the entire dream, I had peace. Impending Judgment on America From a prophet friend in East Florida: (I do not doubt that some of these judgments below will be lessened or done away with.) Vision 1: The Lord took me to the streets of America, and I saw the cities on fire. We have many millions of Muslims in America, and when the war breaks out in the Holy Land, and when America gets involved, they will burn America to the ground. I saw Muslim women coming into America and in their inner body parts, vials of anthrax and bio chemicals. I saw 180 million Americans die in a 72-hour period, then I saw New York, Florida, Nevada, Texas, and California nuked; we will be invaded. Russia and China will do it. (From other dreams I believe this will be close to the end of the tribulation. From famous visions and dreams, such as Washington's, Dumitru Duduman's, A.A. Allens, on our site, we know the righteous will overcome and have victory.) Vision 2: The Lord took me in the spirit to outer space, and I saw very dim stars. Then the lights came on, and I saw a huge asteroid, brown in color coming to planet earth, the asteroid turning over and over like tumbling. Vision 3: The Lord took me in the spirit, and I drove down the east coast of Florida and up the west coast, and when I was in Orlando, Florida - the Lord cut Florida in half, and I said, “Lord, have mercy.” and He said, “No more mercy.” And the second time I said, “Lord, have mercy.” He said, “No more mercy.” I asked the Lord why He is doing this, and He said, “Death of the innocents”. I saw from Kissimmee, Florida, to Miami underwater, then the Lord showed me portable buildings stacked like a train, all connected together. The buildings were full of people with legs and arms missing. I ran into the buildings, and there was no end to the buildings. Vision 4: I saw an asteroid race right by Florida and go north; what a horrible sound, and it hit us. Then I saw helicopters with men carrying guns, and when they came to me, I disappeared. Later, I was somewhere else, and I put out my hand, and an apple was there and I ate it. The Lord will take care of his true servants, don't worry. Vision 5: I was in a red suit and riding in a red car, and something was holding me from passing and going to the sea. (Covered in the red blood we are protected from the peoples, tribes, nations, and tongues.) Then they moved away, and I got to the sea; I dropped my cell phone, and I went into the sea and entered a building that was very strong and safe. (Spiritual Mount Zion is a place of safety in the midst of tribulation.) Interpretation: I have a great call on my life, Isaiah 63, 64, and 65. Red is the blood of Christ and power; the seas are the people for the harvest. The building is Christ and the cell phone is a connection to this world. We are to be led by the spirit and hearing God's voice and not be sold out to the world. God's Kingdom is not of this world. I died 17 years ago when I received the Holy Ghost and I'm a new creation in Christ Jesus. We must all go that way and we will do exploits for the end time harvest. Jesus said we will do greater things than He because He will send the Holy Ghost - Mark 16:17. Be one of them and give God all the glory. So, with all these judgments the Lord is bringing, we can have complete peace, rest, protection, and His provision as we believe and confess the Gospel. The Real, Free Gospel David Eells God cannot fail, but we can hinder His works with our own. Jesus told his disciples, beware of the leaven of the Pharisees and Sadducees (Mat.16:6). They understood this to mean their teaching (verse 12). Their teaching that was so dangerous was salvation by self-works (Gal.2:16; 5:1-6). In explaining this in Mat.16:9,10 Jesus said, “Do you not perceive, neither remember the five loaves of the five thousand, and how many baskets (12) you took up? Neither the seven loaves of the four thousand, and how many baskets (7) you took up?” Notice that the more loaves they provided of their own supply, the fewer were fed, and there were less baskets of leftovers. Jesus' obvious point was that the more you work, the less God works. Salvation in any form is by grace, which is unmerited or unearned. “For by grace have ye been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves, it is the gift of God, not of works, that no man should glory”. (Epe.2:8-9). The word “saved” here is translated from the Greek word “sozo” and is used in Luk.7:50 for the saving of the soul. In Luk.8:48, it is translated “made thee whole” for healing of the body. In Luk.8:36, it is translated “made whole” for deliverance from demons. In Mat.8:25, it is translated “save” for protection from danger. You see, “saved” covers every curse, and it is not of our works. Jesus “became a curse for us” so that we might have “the blessing of Abraham” (Gal.3:13,14). The all-inclusive curse in Deu.28 was put upon him. I remind you that Epe.2:8 says in the original Greek: “by grace have ye been saved”, meaning it happened at the cross. The wilderness is a completely safe and secure place for the “believer” because everything has already been provided there. Our faith in the promises is the very substance that the desired need is made from. (Heb.11:1) Now faith is assurance (or substance) of [things] hoped for, a conviction of things not seen. The reason Jesus said, “All things whatsoever ye pray and ask for, believe that ye receive (Greek: “received”) them, and ye shall have them” (Mar.11:24), is because all of our provision was accomplished at the cross. Notice in the following verses that all things have been received and that the only thing left is for us to believe it. Also notice the past tense of our sacrificial provision in the following verses: (Epe.2:8) for by grace have ye been saved through faith; (1Pe.2:24) who his own self bare our sins in his body ... by whose stripes we were healed; (Col.1:13) who delivered us out of the power of darkness and translated us into the kingdom of the Son of his love; (2Co.5:18) ... who reconciled us to himself; (Gal.2:20) I have been crucified with Christ, and it's no longer I that live, but Christ liveth in me; (Gal. 3:13) Christ redeemed us from the curse; (1Pe.1:3) ... the Father ... begat us again ... by the resurrection of Jesus Christ; (Heb.10:10) We ... have been sanctified ...; (14) He hath perfected forever them that are sanctified; (Epe.1:3) ... who hath blessed us with every spiritual blessing, and God in (2Pe.1:3) hath granted unto us all things. Jesus told us in His day which, of course was accomplished in the past that “Now shall the prince of this world be cast out” (Joh.12:31); “but be of good cheer, I have overcome the world” (Joh.16:33); “It is finished” (Joh.19:30). This is why we are to believe we have received. The devil and the curse were conquered. We were saved, healed, delivered, and provided for. That is why Paul said, “my God shall supply every need of yours according to his riches in glory in Christ Jesus (Phl.4:19). Redemption from the curse and provision for life are truly accomplished at the cross! In fact, God's “works were finished from the foundation of the world” (Heb.4:3), when He spoke the plan into existence. The only thing left is for the true sons of God to enter into those works by faith, believing they have received. Since the works are finished, we should believe and rest from our own works to save, heal, provide, and deliver ourselves. This is rest in the wilderness on the grounds of God's promises. (Heb.4:3) For we who have believed do enter into that rest. That is a spiritual Sabbath rest. (Heb.4:9) There remaineth therefore a sabbath rest (Greek: sabbatismos, “keeping of rest”) for the people of God. This constant “keeping of rest” every day through the past tense promises is our New Testament spiritual Sabbath. (10) For he that is entered into his rest hath himself also rested from his works, as God did from his. This rest is to believe these past tense promises. (Heb.4:1) Let us fear therefore, lest haply, a promise being left of entering into his rest, any one of you should seem to have come short of it. (2) For indeed we have had good tidings preached unto us, even as also they: but the word of hearing did not profit them, because it was not united by faith with them that heard.

Join us this week as Pastor John takes us through Nehemiah chapter 8. __ "Breakthroughs" Nehemiah 8:1-12 A picture of a breakthrough can empower us to pursue a burden. 1. Breakthroughs have no limits. - Breakthroughs aren't limited to certain people, past, or place. - “The remnant there in the province who had survived the exile is in great trouble and shame….” (Neh. 1:3). - precincts of the temple, so that none might be barred from attending…” They made space for a breakthrough to take place. 2. Breakthroughs happen through a hunger for God's Word. Jer. 15:16, Your words were found, and I ate them, and your words became to me a joy and the delight of my heart, for I am called by your name, O Lord, God of hosts. Ezekiel 3:2-3 2 So I opened my mouth, and he gave me this scroll to eat. 3 And he said to me, “Son of man, feed your belly with this scroll that I give you and fill your stomach with it.” Then I ate it, and it was in my mouth as sweet as honey. when he ate the Word and it became sweet as honey. 3. Breakthroughs heighten by the joy of the Lord - 2 looking to Jesus, the founder and perfecter of our faith, who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is seated at the right hand of the throne of God. (Heb. 12:2)

Kirsten (33) komt volgens andere mensen flirterig over, terwijl ze dat niet zo bedoelt. Zij vindt zichzelf gewoon open en oprecht in contact met iedereen. Partners vinden dit eerst aantrekkelijk, maar daarna wordt het een probleem in de relatie omdat Kirsten zo naar iedereen is.
Deze vodcast wordt mede mogelijk gemaakt door KPN Glasvezel. Alle meningen in deze video zijn onze eigen. KPN Glasvezel heeft inhoudelijk geen inspraak op de content en zien de video net als jullie hier voor het eerst op de site.Welkom bij Gamekings Daily, een gaming vodcast waarin twee presentatoren van Gamekings praten over de laatste ontwikkelingen in de wereld van videogames. Vandaag heeft Shelly plaatsgenomen aan de desk en behandelt zij samen met JJ een aantal gamegerelateerde onderwerpen. Zo praten ze over de hype rond zowel Pokémon Pokopia als Slay the Spire 2. Beide games scoren zowel qua cijfers als verkoopcijfers als een malle. Waarom is dat? Is het alleen de kwaliteit van de game? En wat wil Nintendo bereiken met de vacatures voor mensen die verstand hebben van biologie? Deze topics en meer zijn te zien en te horen in de Gamekings Daily van maandag 9 maart 2026.Wie wil niet een echte, levende Pokémon in huis?Een ander onderwerp in deze editie van GK Daily is de mogelijke prijs van Project Helix, de PC-based console van Microsoft. Deze moet in 2027 uitkomen. Kenners hebben het over bedragen die variëren van 900 tot 1200 euro. Is er een markt voor een 'console' met een dergelijk prijskaartje?Stap nu over op KPN internet en krijg een Switch 2 of PS5 cadeauVanaf deze week heeft KPN een actie lopen die je als weldenkend gamer bijna niet links kunt laten liggen. Als je namelijk overstapt naar KPN internet en een tweejarig abonnement afneemt, kun je als welkomstcadeau kiezen uit een Switch 2 of een PS5. En we weten dat veel mensen nog een Switch 2 willen halen. Plus de gamers die in november GTA 6 willen spelen en nog geen PS5 hebben; die zijn ook erg gebaat bij deze actie. Hier vind je alle info, de voorwaarden en de plek om deze deal te sluiten. En oh ja, glasvezel is natuurlijk de beste optie (als die tenminste bij jou in de straat ligt). Heb je geen lag meer en op sommige plekken tot 4 g/bit up snelheden. Wel zo fijn als je onbekommerd wil gamen.
Waarschijnlijk denk je dagelijks maar kort aan het weer. Een paar minuten, als je het weerbericht checkt op je telefoon, radio of televisie - en misschien nog wat minuten om te klagen als het weer niet is wat de weermensen hadden voorspelt. Maar sta je er wel eens bij stil dat je elke dag naar de resultaten van een klein wetenschappelijk onderzoek kijkt? ⭕️ In deze aflevering achterhaalt presentator Syb Faes hoe het weerbericht bij publieke omroep NOS wordt gemaakt. Daarvoor loopt hij de hele dag mee met doorgewinterd weerman Peter Kuipers Munneke, en komt hij erachter dat het weerbericht aan de ene kant harde wiskunde en natuurkunde is, en aan de andere kant net zoveel wetenschapscommunicatie. Want ja: na een kort weerbericht moeten 18 miljoen mensen weten waar ze de volgende dag aan toe zijn - dan moet je als weerman dus héél zorgvuldig je woorden kiezen. Ze hebben geluk die dag: Peter mag tijdens het journaal van 8 uur de eerste lentedag van het jaar aankondigen! Of misschien toch nét niet... Hoe maakt Peter het weerbericht? En waar let hij op bij het presenteren ervan?
Discussion QuestionsSermon Overview Rejoice and rest in Jesus' devotion to his Father's will and our salvation.I. He was strengthened by submitting (vv. 39-46)II. He conquered by surrendering (vv. 47-53)Digging Deeper Read Luke 22:39-531. In the first section of our passage, we see that Jesus was strengthened by submitting (vv. 39-46). How do the two identical commands to “pray that you will not fall into temptation” (v. 40b & v. 46b) help us understand what this section is about? 2. Read Isaiah 51:17 and Jeremiah 25:15-16. What is “the cup” in Luke 22:42 that Jesus asks his Father to remove?3. In vv. 39-46 Jesus shows us how to face temptation. But “before it's something he did for our example, it's something he did for our salvation.” What's at stake for us in understanding this? 4. Is there currently an area of your life where you sense God may be testing you? What truth(s) from this passage might help you endure and remain faithful? 5. In the second section, we see that Jesus was victorious by surrendering (vv. 47-53). What do we see in the text that shows us Jesus is in complete control as he interacts with Judas, his disciples, and his enemies? 6. “Jesus surrendered to the power of darkness so that we could be delivered from it and be brought forever into his kingdom.” (see Heb. 2:14 & Col. 1:13). What implications does this have for how we live our lives, with darkness yet remaining in the world and darkness yet remaining in our hearts? 7. What would it look like for you to rejoice in Jesus' devotion to his Father's will and our salvation? 8. What would it look like for you to rest in Jesus' devotion to his Father's will and our salvation? Is there an area of your life in which you are not resting in what Christ has done for you? 9. What from this passage could you share with an unbeliever that might help him or her better understand the person of Jesus and what he came to do for sinners? Prayer
Cleansing and Rebuilding the Temple (1) (audio) David Eells, 3/8/26 Jerusalem & Temple Destroyed & Born Again B. A. - 06/04/2014 (David's notes in red) (Eze.13:14) So will I break down the wall that ye have daubed with untempered mortar, and bring it down to the ground, so that the foundation thereof shall be uncovered; and it shall fall, and ye shall be consumed in the midst thereof: and ye shall know that I am Jehovah. (15) Thus will I accomplish my wrath upon the wall, and upon them that have daubed it with untempered mortar; and I will say unto you, The wall is no more, neither they that daubed it; 16 to wit, the prophets of Israel that prophesy concerning Jerusalem, and that see visions of peace for her, and there is no peace, saith the Lord Jehovah. Just as people must die to self and be born again from above, so must Jerusalem and its temple. Why was rebellious Jerusalem, the capital of the Jews, torn down with its temple and its people crucified and killed in heaps? Their temple represented them and Jerusalem those who were to be the Bride. Josephus, the historian who wrote their history, said it was because of the way they treated Jesus and His disciples. It appears that Josephus believed that Jesus was the Messiah. This is a type that is coming to pass in our day in the so-called Church. For Paul said to the mostly Gentile Church that what happened to the Jews was a type for what will happen to the mostly Gentile Church at the ends of the ages. (1Co.10:11) Now these things happened unto them by way of example (Greek: “shadow” or “type”); and they were written for our admonition, upon whom the ends of the ages are come. So what happened historically is a type for this day. Today, in the end of this age, the rebellious leadership of God's people, the false Man-child and Bride, represented by unregenerate Jerusalem, have crucified Jesus as He said, (Mat.25:40) And the King shall answer and say unto them, Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as ye did it unto one of these my brethren, [even] these least, ye did it unto me. As the Dragon, Satan's body, including this false leadership, seeks to devour the Man-child and destroy the Bride for its own egotistical reasons. God has set them as a mark for the Beast to conquer. The Beast, which in Revelation 17 is inhabited by a body of spirits from the abyss, represents a body of people outside of Christ that will be used as a vessel of dishonor to destroy spiritually and, in some cases, physically these rebellious religious leaders and their people from the different sects of apostate Christianity. Some would say, “David, doesn't Jerusalem get destroyed after seven years, as a type of the 70 years?” Yes, but in a spiritual way, it is happening now as the leadership of apostate Christianity becomes more and more devoured by the mind and spirits of the Beast. As Jesus said of these evil leaders, (Mat.23:27) Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye are like unto whited sepulchres, which outwardly appear beautiful, but inwardly are full of dead men's bones, and of all uncleanness. (28) Even so ye also outwardly appear righteous unto men, but inwardly ye are full of hypocrisy and iniquity. (29) Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye build the sepulchres of the prophets, and garnish the tombs of the righteous, (30) and say, If we had been in the days of our fathers, we should not have been partakers with them in the blood of the prophets. (31) Wherefore ye witness to yourselves, that ye are sons of them that slew the prophets. (32) Fill ye up then the measure of your fathers. (33) Ye serpents, ye offspring of vipers, how shall ye escape the judgment of hell? (34) Therefore, behold, I send unto you prophets, and wise men, and scribes: some of them shall ye kill and crucify; and some of them shall ye scourge in your synagogues, and persecute from city to city: (35) that upon you may come all the righteous blood shed on the earth (this was also said of the Harlot in Revelation 17:24), from the blood of Abel the righteous unto the blood of Zachariah son of Barachiah, whom ye slew between the sanctuary and the altar. Clearly, the Harlot has been around since Cain killed Abel. (36) Verily I say unto you, All these things shall come upon this generation. As Jesus said of these hypocrites and their city and temple, (37) O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, that killeth the prophets, and stoneth them that are sent unto her! how often would I have gathered thy children together, even as a hen gathereth her chickens under her wings, and ye would not! (38) Behold, your house is left unto you desolate. (39) For I say unto you, Ye shall not see me henceforth, till ye shall say, Blessed [is] he that cometh in the name of the Lord. (24:1) And Jesus went out from the temple and was going on his way; and his disciples came to him to show him the buildings of the temple. (2) But he answered and said unto them, See ye not all these things? verily I say unto you, There shall not be left here one stone upon another, that shall not be thrown down. (Gal.4:22) For it is written, that Abraham had two sons, one by the handmaid, and one by the freewoman. (23) Howbeit the [son] by the handmaid is born after the flesh; but the [son] by the freewoman [is born] through promise. (24) Which things contain an allegory: for these [women] are two covenants; one from mount Sinai, bearing children unto bondage, which is Hagar. (25) Now this Hagar is mount Sinai in Arabia and answereth to the Jerusalem that now is: for she is in bondage with her children. (26) But the Jerusalem that is above is free, which is our mother. (Rev.3:12) He that overcometh, I will make him a pillar in the temple of my God, and he shall go out thence no more: and I will write upon him the name of my God, and the name of the city of my God, the new Jerusalem, which cometh (present tense) down out of heaven from my God, and mine own new name. 13 He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith to the churches. (Jer.3:12) Go, and proclaim these words toward the north, and say, Return, thou backsliding Israel, saith Jehovah; I will not look in anger upon you; for I am merciful, saith Jehovah, I will not keep [anger] for ever. (13) Only acknowledge thine iniquity, that thou hast transgressed against Jehovah thy God, and hast scattered thy ways to the strangers under every green tree, and ye have not obeyed my voice, saith Jehovah. (14) Return, O backsliding children, saith Jehovah; for I am a husband unto you: and I will take you one of a city, and two of a family, and I will bring you to Zion: (15) and I will give you shepherds according to my heart, who shall feed you with knowledge and understanding. (16) And it shall come to pass, when ye are multiplied and increased in the land, in those days, saith Jehovah, they shall say no more, The ark of the covenant of Jehovah; neither shall it come to mind; neither shall they remember it; neither shall they miss it; neither shall it be made any more. (17) At that time they shall call Jerusalem the throne of Jehovah; and all the nations (Gentiles) shall be gathered unto it, to the name of Jehovah, to Jerusalem (notice that this heavenly Jerusalem will be synonymous with the name, meaning “nature, character and authority” of the Lord): neither shall they walk any more after the stubbornness of their evil heart. (18) In those days the house of Judah shall walk with the house of Israel, and they shall come together out of the land of the North (Beast captivity) to the land that I gave for an inheritance unto your fathers. (19) But I said, How I will put thee among the children, and give thee a pleasant land, a goodly heritage of the hosts of the nations! and I said, Ye shall call me My Father, and shall not turn away from following me. (20) Surely as a wife treacherously departeth from her husband, so have ye dealt treacherously with me, O house of Israel, saith Jehovah. (21) A voice is heard upon the bare heights, the weeping [and] the supplications of the children of Israel; because they have perverted their way, they have forgotten Jehovah their God. (22) Return, ye backsliding children, I will heal your backslidings. Behold, we are come unto thee; for thou art Jehovah our God. B.A.'s dream: I dreamed that I was in Jerusalem (Zion) and I was watching as Titus and his army (of the Roman Beast of that day) were tearing down the temple with battering rams and large ropes. I listened as Titus gave orders to his army: “Tear these walls down! I don't want one stone left standing upon another!” (Luk.19:41) And when he (Jesus) drew nigh, he saw the city and wept over it, (42) saying, If thou hadst known in this day, even thou, the things which belong unto peace! but now they are hid from thine eyes. (43) For the days shall come upon thee, when thine enemies shall cast up a bank about thee, and compass thee round, and keep thee in on every side, (44) and shall dash thee to the ground, and thy children within thee; and they shall not leave in thee one stone upon another; because thou knewest not the time of thy visitation. Titus said, “This temple is a mockery and must be destroyed!” (Jer.6:15) Were they ashamed when they had committed abomination? nay, they were not at all ashamed, neither could they blush: therefore they shall fall among them that fall; at the time that I visit them they shall be cast down, saith Jehovah. (16) Thus saith Jehovah, Stand ye in the ways and see, and ask for the old paths, where is the good way; and walk therein, and ye shall find rest for your souls: but they said, We will not walk therein. (Jer.14:15) Therefore thus saith Jehovah concerning the prophets that prophesy in my name, and I sent them not, yet they say, Sword and famine shall not be in this land: By sword and famine shall those prophets be consumed. (Mic.1:6) Therefore I will make Samaria as a heap of the field, and as places for planting vineyards; and I will pour down the stones thereof into the valley, and I will uncover the foundations thereof. My thoughts: (Act.17:24) The God that made the world and all things therein, he, being Lord of heaven and earth, dwelleth not in temples made with hands. (Jer.7:3) Thus saith Jehovah of hosts, the God of Israel, Amend your ways and your doings, and I will cause you to dwell in this place. (4) Trust ye not in lying words, saying, The temple of Jehovah, the temple of Jehovah (which had become corrupt), the temple of Jehovah, are these. (5) For if ye thoroughly amend your ways and your doings; if ye thoroughly execute justice between a man and his neighbor; (6) if ye oppress not the sojourner, the fatherless, and the widow, and shed not innocent blood in this place, neither walk after other gods to your own hurt: (7) then will I cause you to dwell in this place, in the land that I gave to your fathers, from of old even for evermore. (8) Behold, ye trust in lying words, that cannot profit. (9) Will ye steal, murder, and commit adultery, and swear falsely, and burn incense unto Baal, and walk after other gods that ye have not known, (10) and come and stand before me in this house, which is called by my name, and say, We are delivered; that ye may do all these abominations? (The Temple of the Lord had become corrupt.) (11) Is this house, which is called by my name, become a den of robbers in your eyes? Behold, I, even I, have seen it, saith Jehovah. (12) But go ye now unto my place which was in Shiloh, where I caused my name to dwell at the first, and see what I did to it for the wickedness of my people Israel. (13) And now, because ye have done all these works, saith Jehovah, and I spake unto you, rising up early and speaking, but ye heard not; and I called you, but ye answered not: (14) therefore will I do unto the house which is called by my name, wherein ye trust, and unto the place which I gave to you and to your fathers, as I did to Shiloh. (15) And I will cast you out of my sight, as I have cast out all your brethren, even the whole seed of Ephraim. (16) Therefore pray not thou for this people, neither lift up cry nor prayer for them, neither make intercession to me; for I will not hear thee. (17) Seest thou not what they do in the cities of Judah and in the streets of Jerusalem? B.A.: Titus had such a stern (determined) look on his face, like he was being driven to destroy this useless temple (made by man's hands, the hands or works of the flesh) and I found myself agreeing with him. I began shouting, “Yes, tear these walls down! This isn't the house of God! Jesus isn't in this place! This place is just a den of thieves! (Mat.21:12) And Jesus entered into the temple of God, and cast out all them that sold and bought in the temple, and overthrew the tables of he money-changers, and the seats of them that sold the doves; (13) and he saith unto them, It is written, My house shall be called a house of prayer: but ye make it a den of robbers. (Is it not so today? Look how the leaders live after the lusts of their flesh. This did not Jesus and His disciples do.) Soon it was over and all those useless stones (apostates and their leaders who had been robbing God's people) were torn down, and they littered the ground. This reminded me of the “Third Vision” in The Shepherd of Hermas: “Concerning the Building of the Triumphant Church, and the Various Classes of Reprobate Men”: And then she again took hold of me by the hand, and raised me, and made me sit on the seat to the left; and lifting up a splendid rod, she said to me, “Do you see something great?” And I say, “Lady, I see nothing”. She said to me, “Lo! do you not see opposite to you a great tower, built upon the waters, of splendid square stones?” For the tower was built square by those six young men who had come with her. But myriads of men were carrying stones to it (We are the living stones of the true house of God.), some dragging them from the depths, others removing them from the land, and they handed them to these six young men. They were taking them and building; and those of the stones that were dragged out of the depths, they placed in the building just as they were: for they were polished and fitted exactly into the other stones, and became so united one with the another that the lines of juncture could not be perceived. And in this way, the building of the tower looked as if it were made out of one stone. (Representing those who have been baptized in the water of the Word unto death to self.) Those stones, however, which were taken from the earth suffered a different fate; for the young men rejected some of them, some they fitted into the building, and some they cut down, and cast far away from the tower. (reprobated) Many other stones, however, lay around the tower, and the young men did not use them in building; for some of them were rough, others had cracks in them, others had been made too short, and others were white and round (too much flesh or wealth), but did not fit into the building of the tower. Moreover, I saw other stones thrown far away from the tower, and falling into the public road; yet they did not remain on the road, but were rolled into a pathless place. And I saw others falling into the fire and burning, others falling close to the water, and yet not capable of being rolled into the water, though they wished to be rolled down and to enter the water. (Those needing God's will in them to love the Word) The old unregenerate temple must die and be born again. (Zec.6:12) and speak unto him, saying, Thus speaketh Jehovah of hosts, saying, Behold, the man whose name is the Branch: and he shall grow up out of his place; and he shall build the temple of Jehovah (Jesus in the Man-child ministry of Revelation 12 as spiritual sons of David); (13) even he shall build the temple of Jehovah; and he shall bear the glory, and shall sit and rule upon his throne; and he shall be a priest upon his throne; and the counsel of peace shall be between them both. (14) And the crowns shall be to Helem, and to Tobijah, and to Jedaiah, and to Hen the son of Zephaniah, for a memorial in the temple of Jehovah. (15) And they that are far off shall come and build in the temple of Jehovah; and ye shall know that Jehovah of hosts hath sent me unto you. (Jesus is coming as the epiphany (or shining forth from) in His new leadership.) And [this] shall come to pass, if ye will diligently obey the voice of Jehovah your God. Our spiritual forefathers came to heavenly Jerusalem when they walked in the steps of Jesus in truth and righteousness, but the fleshly church was driven from the land by the beastly flesh shortly thereafter. The restoration is beginning again. (Heb.12:18) For ye are not come unto [a mount] that might be touched, and that burned with fire, and unto blackness, and darkness, and tempest, (19) and the sound of a trumpet, and the voice of words; which [voice] they that heard entreated that no word more should be spoken unto them; (20) for they could not endure that which was enjoined, If even a beast touch the mountain, it shall be stoned; (21) and so fearful was the appearance, [that] Moses said, I exceedingly fear and quake: (22) but ye are come unto mount Zion, and unto the city of the living God, the heavenly Jerusalem, and to innumerable hosts of angels. B.A.: I was so happy, as I knew that this temple (apostate leadership) would no longer be able to inflict anymore pain on God's people. (Eze.14:4) Therefore speak unto them, and say unto them, Thus saith the Lord Jehovah: Every man of the house of Israel that taketh his idols into his heart, and putteth the stumblingblock of his iniquity before his face, and cometh to the prophet; I Jehovah will answer him therein according to the multitude of his idols; (5) that I may take the house of Israel in their own heart, because they are all estranged from me through their idols. (6) Therefore say unto the house of Israel, Thus saith the Lord Jehovah: Return ye, and turn yourselves from your idols; and turn away your faces from all your abominations. (7) For every one of the house of Israel, or of the strangers that sojourn in Israel, that separateth himself from me, and taketh his idols into his heart, and putteth the stumblingblock of his iniquity before his face, and cometh to the prophet to inquire for himself of me; I Jehovah will answer him by myself: (8) and I will set my face against that man, and will make him an astonishment, for a sign and a proverb, and I will cut him off from the midst of my people; and ye shall know that I am Jehovah. (9) And if the prophet be deceived and speak a word, I, Jehovah, have deceived that prophet, and I will stretch out my hand upon him, and will destroy him from the midst of my people Israel. (10) And they shall bear their iniquity: the iniquity of the prophet shall be even as the iniquity of him that seeketh unto him; (11) that the house of Israel may go no more astray from me, neither defile themselves any more with all their transgressions; but that they may be my people, and I may be their God, saith the Lord Jehovah. For the past several days, I've been hearing in the Spirit, “Humble thyself in the sight of the Lord”. (Jas.4:10) Humble yourselves in the sight of the Lord, and he shall exalt you. Temple of Crucified Saints B. A. - 03/21/2014 (David's notes in red) I had a little dream this morning. I had a similar dream several years ago, but I was not with any group of people. When I first had this dream, I was confused because I did not have the understanding that I do now. It wasn't until a few years later that the Lord revealed the meaning to me, and now I had the dream again. This time, I dreamed I was standing in the midst of a special group of people (Man-child/Bride corporate body) and we were all dressed like they were back in the days of our Lord, Jesus. (Job.29:14) I put on righteousness, and it clothed me: My justice was as a robe and a diadem. (Rom.13:14) But put ye on the Lord Jesus Christ, and make not provision for the flesh, to fulfil the lusts thereof. (Gal.5:16) But I say, walk by the Spirit, and ye shall not fulfil the lust of the flesh. (Col.3:12) Put on therefore, as God's elect, holy and beloved, a heart of compassion, kindness, lowliness, meekness, longsuffering; (13) forbearing one another, and forgiving each other, if any man have a complaint against any; even as the Lord forgave you, so also do ye: (14) and above all these things put on love, which is the bond of perfectness. I watched as people came up to our little group, one at a time. As each individual approached our group, they went up to the elder (Jesus) who was standing at the front of the group, and they showed the elder their hands and their feet. I watched as the elder took hold of their hands and looked for the “nail holes” in their hands, and then he looked down at their feet to see if they also had nail holes in their feet as well; there had to be a “total crucifixion” (of self), or they could not join our group. (Rom.5:6) For while we were yet weak, in due season Christ died for the ungodly. (Gal.2:20) I have been crucified with Christ; and it is no longer I that live, but Christ living in me: and that life which I now live in the flesh I live in faith, the faith which is in the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself up for me. (Rom.14:7) For none of us liveth to himself, and none dieth to himself. (1Co.6:17) But he that is joined unto the Lord is one spirit. (2Co.5:14) For the love of Christ constraineth us; because we thus judge, that one died for all, therefore all died; (Gal.1:4) who gave himself for our sins, that he might deliver us out of this present evil world, according to the will of our God and Father: (5) to whom be the glory for ever and ever. Amen. I watched as one person was turned away, and I prayed for him, as he was very sad because he had not been accepted. Suddenly, I heard the elder (Jesus) shout, “Saints, we are now ready (or qualified)! Let's go restore the temple of God! (Those crucified with Christ are ready to be the stones of the foundation of the temple of God. Cyrus, whom the Lord called His anointed shepherd or Messiah shepherd, as a type of Jesus in Isaiah 44:26 - 45:1, is prophesied to build Jerusalem, the Bride, and lay the foundation of the temple. Cyrus/Jesus set the first-fruits of Judah/Benjamin free from Babylonian captivity, as a type of crucifixion, to go and do this.) B.A,:(Ezr.1:1) Now in the first year of Cyrus king of Persia, that the word of Jehovah by the mouth of Jeremiah might be accomplished, Jehovah stirred up the spirit of Cyrus king of Persia, so that he made a proclamation throughout all his kingdom, and put it also in writing, saying, (2) Thus saith Cyrus king of Persia, All the kingdoms of the earth hath Jehovah, the God of heaven, given me; and he hath charged me to build him a house in Jerusalem, which is in Judah. (3) Whosoever there is among you of all his people, his God be with him, and let him go up to Jerusalem, which is in Judah, and build the house of Jehovah, the God of Israel (he is God), which is in Jerusalem (the Bride). (4) And whosoever is left, in any place where he sojourneth, let the men of his place help him with silver, and with gold, and with goods, and with beasts, besides the freewill-offering for the house of God which is in Jerusalem. (5) Then rose up the heads of fathers' houses of Judah and Benjamin, and the priests, and the Levites, even all whose spirit God had stirred to go up to build the house of Jehovah which is in Jerusalem. (6) And all they that were round about them strengthened their hands with vessels of silver, with gold, with goods, and with beasts, and with precious things, besides all that was willingly offered. (7) Also Cyrus the king brought forth the vessels of the house of Jehovah (The holy people of God), which Nebuchadnezzar had brought forth out of Jerusalem, and had put in the house of his gods; (8) even those did Cyrus king of Persia (A type of Trump) bring forth by the hand of Mithredath the treasurer, and numbered them unto Sheshbazzar, the prince of Judah. (These are the days of Cyrus(9) And this is the number of them: thirty platters of gold, a thousand platters of silver, nine and twenty knives, (10) thirty bowls of gold, silver bowls of a second sort four hundred and ten, and other vessels a thousand. (11) All the vessels of gold and of silver were five thousand and four hundred. All these did Sheshbazzar (The Man-child) bring up, when they of the captivity were brought up from Babylon unto Jerusalem. (Ezra means “help or court”, and I thought it was interesting that Ezra chapter 1 ends with verse 11, (1:11) or “111” and many of us are seeing 111 almost daily.) (111 is the Gematria for the birth of Jesus in the New Testament and type of the end-time Man-child body. For years, I would ask for a word for myself through random faith and often was given the same verse many times until I quit counting: (Ezr.6:5) And also let the gold and silver vessels of the house of God, which Nebuchadnezzar took forth out of the temple which is at Jerusalem, and brought unto Babylon, be restored, and brought again unto the temple which is at Jerusalem, every one to its place; and thou shalt put them in the house of God. At other times, I received: (5:15) and he said unto him, Take these vessels, go, put them in the temple that is in Jerusalem, and let the house of God be builded in its place. These gold and silver vessels are the first-fruits people of God who build and are the foundation of the temple.) Another text we have received concerning this is in Haggai. In chapter 1, the people were exhorted to stop building their own houses and build God's house, and they obeyed, for which God rebuked the devourer and blessed them mightily in chapter 2. Also in chapter 2, He compared their coming out of captivity to build God's house, like when their fathers came out of Egypt to build the tabernacle in the wilderness. Of these two times, He spoke of a great shaking of Heaven and Earth, which is a type for us today who are about to build Father's temple made without hands. A great shaking is now coming. (Hag.2:3) Who is left among you that saw this house in its former glory? and how do ye see it now? is it not in your eyes as nothing? (4) Yet now be strong, O Zerubbabel (meaning “born from Babylon”; a type of the Man-child), saith Jehovah; and be strong, O Joshua, son of Jehozadak, the high priest (a type of Jesus with the Man-child); and be strong, all ye people of the land, saith Jehovah, and work: for I am with you, saith Jehovah of hosts, (5) [according to] the word that I covenanted with you when ye came out of Egypt, and my Spirit abode among you: fear ye not. (6) For thus saith Jehovah of hosts: Yet once, it is a little while, and I will shake the heavens, and the earth, and the sea, and the dry land; (7) and I will shake all nations; and the precious things (Hebrew: “desire”; i.e., Jesus in the Man-child) of all nations (of God's people) shall come; and I will fill this house with glory, saith Jehovah of hosts. We can see that the great shaking will begin with the laying of the foundation of God's temple with those who are crucified with Christ. (8) The silver is mine, and the gold is mine, saith Jehovah of hosts. The silver and gold of God's people have become His at this time. Also, gold and silver were given to Israel as they were leaving Egypt, as it will be today, to build the temple of God, His people. (9) The latter glory of this house shall be greater than the former, saith Jehovah of hosts; and in this place will I give peace, saith Jehovah of hosts. The first house was letter and physical; the last house is spirit, made without man's works. B.A.: Then, at the end of this dream, I saw the “Spirit” of Jesus. Three years ago, I had this very same vision. But I was a young believer at the time and I didn't have the revelation of what the vision was about until much later, as I grew in the Lord. Vision: I saw the Spirit of Jesus. He was very tall and light was illuminating out of His Spirit all around Him. I watched as little particles (which later were revealed to me to be DNA cells) were coming from every direction and attaching themselves to His Spirit. I got the revelation that as each one of us is crucified with Jesus Christ and dies to self, we are part of His body, and we go back to Him because we came from Him (Because our born-again man is created by His Word, which is His DNA.). Come, Lord Jesus, come! I asked the Father for a verse for the dream, and He gave me (Act.3:21) whom the heaven must receive until the times of restoration of all things, whereof God spake by the mouth of His holy prophets that have been from of old. (When we are restored, it is Jesus manifested in us in spirit and soul. He said, He was coming as the Latter Rain outpouring after two days or two thousand years on the morning of the third day. Hos 6:1 Come, and let us return unto Jehovah; for he hath torn, and he will heal us; he hath smitten, and he will bind us up. 2 After two days will he revive us: on the third day he will raise us up, and we shall live before him. 3 And let us know, let us follow on to know Jehovah: his going forth is sure as the morning; and he will come unto us as the rain, as the latter rain that watereth the earth. Jesus the Man-child type was the first to receive the Former Rain and Jesus coming in the Man-child body is coming as the Latter Rain.) Man-child Will Purify God's House C. P. 02/25/21 (David's notes in red) In this dream, I was in our house with my husband and David Eells (Representing the first fruits David Man-Child reformers) was there too. He had white hair down to his shoulders and looked more like Moses than himself. He was wearing an ancient sort of clothing. (David's hair represents the increasing glory – 30, 60 and 100 fold; (Mar.4:20) And those are they that were sown upon the good ground; such as hear the word, and accept it, and bear fruit, thirtyfold, and sixtyfold, and a hundredfold.) He covered his white hair with a little black/dark hat.) (Moses' face shown with the glory of God so bright that he had to veil that glory when He went before the people. But he took the veil off when he went before God in order to receive more of His glory. The reason the David Man-child reformers look like Moses is this: (Act.3:22-23) Moses indeed said, A prophet shall the Lord God raise up unto you from among your brethren, like unto me; to him shall ye hearken in all things whatsoever he shall speak unto you. (23) And it shall be, that every soul that shall not hearken to that prophet, shall be utterly destroyed from among the people. You would probably say, but Jesus fulfilled that and I would say you're correct. But Jesus said He was coming a second time as a Man-child born to a woman and this is in Revelation 12. We read in (Joh.16:21-22) A woman when she is in travail hath sorrow, because her hour is come: but when she is delivered of the child, she remembereth no more the anguish, for the joy that a man is born into the world. (22) And ye therefore now have sorrow: but I will see you again, and your heart shall rejoice, and your joy no one taketh away from you. Jesus first came in a body of the Son of David, and so He will be now in a corporate body of spiritual Davids, the man-child, by His Word and Spirit. History always repeats with larger groups of people. In a vision I have shared parts of, I saw the Man-child body of 144,000 at the throne of God to be anointed.) C.P.: David was walking through our house, making sure everything was white – furniture, walls, etc. He had a paintbrush in his hand. (This is pointing to another dual fulfilled prophecy with Jesus starring in this, too. (Mal.3:1-3) Behold, I send my messenger, and he shall prepare the way before me: and the Lord, whom ye seek, will suddenly come to his temple; and the messenger of the covenant, whom ye desire, behold, he cometh, saith Jehovah of hosts. (2) But who can abide the day of his coming? and who shall stand when he appeareth? for he is like a refiner's fire, and like fullers' soap: (3) and he will sit as a refiner and purifier of silver, and he will purify the sons of Levi, and refine them as gold and silver; and they shall offer unto Jehovah offerings in righteousness. Representing the white House of God with Jesus as the head.) C.P.: Some other people – perhaps younger women- were walking behind him, asking him, “Why are you doing this?” (The more immature women in Song of Solomon did not understand the Brides radical running after the Groom.) He replied, “It's got to get done”. I said to him, “David, everything is already white. We've already painted it. The exterior of the house is old, but it, too, is white”. David replied, “Yes, but we must get rid of the cracks”. (2Co.7:1) Having therefore these promises, beloved, let us cleanse ourselves from all defilement of flesh and spirit, perfecting holiness in the fear of God. When the Man-child is anointed, Jesus will complete the work in us. Also, when David became king, he destroyed the Edomites who factioned or separated people against their own brethren. The factious represent the cracks that separate God's people.) C.P.: David then went into the dining room and gave our already white dining table another coat of paint. He repainted our already white chairs white again and even painted the chrome-colored chair legs white. (The dining room is where the unleavened bread, the spiritual food of the Word, is served. (1Co.13:9-12) For we know in part, and we prophesy in part; (10) but when that which is perfect is come, that which is in part shall be done away. (11) When I was a child, I spake as a child, I felt as a child, I thought as a child: now that I am become a man, I have put away childish things. (12) For now we see in a mirror, darkly; but then face to face: now I know in part; but then shall I know fully even as also I was fully known.) C.P.: Then David looked at the only wooden unpainted piece of furniture – a side buffet table, and with his paintbrush, he painted it white. Someone asked him, “Why does this also need to be painted? It's never used”. He replied, “I can't wait for someone else to do it. I must do it now”. (Everything that displays the unleavened bread of the Word must be purified. The Man-child will be first in our day with the pure Word by Father's grace. Jesus said in (Joh.9:4-5) We must work the works of him that sent me, while it is day: the night cometh, when no man can work. (5) When I am in the world, I am the light of the world.) C.P.: (Psa.51:7-13) Purify me with hyssop, and I shall be clean: Wash me, and I shall be whiter than snow. (8) Make me to hear joy and gladness, That the bones which thou hast broken may rejoice. (9) Hide thy face from my sins, And blot out all mine iniquities. (10) Create in me a clean heart, O God; And renew a right spirit within me. (11) Cast me not away from thy presence; And take not thy Holy Spirit from me. (12) Restore unto me the joy of thy salvation; And uphold me with a willing spirit. (13) Then will I teach transgressors thy ways; And sinners shall be converted unto thee. David was working the whole time feverishly, his body so energetic, his steps were energetic and fast paced, his hands were nimble and quick. But he was calm and spoke quietly. He was smiling and was at ease doing this job. (It is Jesus in the Man-child Who will do the Work. (Mat.12:18-21) Behold, my servant whom I have chosen; My beloved in whom my soul is well pleased: I will put my Spirit upon him, And he shall declare judgment to the Gentiles. (19) He shall not strive, nor cry aloud; Neither shall any one hear his voice in the streets. (20) A bruised reed shall he not break, And smoking flax shall he not quench, Till he send forth judgment unto victory. (21) And in his name shall the Gentiles hope. (Mat.10:19-20) ...be not anxious how or what ye shall speak: for it shall be given you in that hour what ye shall speak. (20) For it is not ye that speak, but the Spirit of your Father that speaketh in you.) C.P.: Then he said, “Come, we need to sit under the table and pray for protection”. So my husband, David, and I, and these other young women whom I did not know, sat under the table, as if we were preparing for an earthquake. (Great earthquakes, spiritual and physical, are coming and many will die. The Man-child Jesus was resurrected with a great earthquake. Being under the authority of the food of God's Word on the table will bring growth and protection. (Psa.27:5) For in the day of trouble he will keep me secretly in his pavilion: In the covert of his tabernacle will he hide me; He will lift me up upon a rock. (Psa.91:1) He that dwelleth in the secret place of the Most High Shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty. (2) I will say of Jehovah, He is my refuge and my fortress; My God, in whom I trust. (3) For he will deliver thee from the snare of the fowler, And from the deadly pestilence. … (7) A thousand shall fall at thy side, And ten thousand at thy right hand; But it shall not come nigh thee. … (10) There shall no evil befall thee, Neither shall any plague come nigh thy tent. … (14) Because he hath set his love upon me, therefore will I deliver him: I will set him on high, because he hath known my name. (15) He shall call upon me, and I will answer him; I will be with him in trouble: I will deliver him, and honor him. 16 With long life will I satisfy him, And show him my salvation.) C.P.: My husband took his phone out and showed me how the screen was now completely white. (We are not to look upon evil, deception, or impurity for the eye is a gateway to the soul.) There was a simple definition in black newspaper font typed on the screen: Christian (n): They will be destroyed because they worshipped another Messiah (a False Jesus and Word). (The flesh wants only a flesh-pleasing Jesus, and religion is the same, but we are not to look on such deception, but only God's pure Word. There will be no protection for those who depart from the pure Word and its promises. (Isa.8:20) To the law and to the testimony! if they speak not according to this word, surely there is no morning for them. (Rev.22:18-20) I testify unto every man that heareth the words of the prophecy of this book, If any man shall add unto them, God shall add unto him the plagues which are written in this book: (19) and if any man shall take away from the words of the book of this prophecy, God shall take away his part from the tree of life, and out of the holy city, which are written in this book. (20) He who testifieth these things saith, Yea: I come quickly. Amen: come, Lord Jesus.) C.P.: I woke up and received the following by faith at random, and my finger landed on “watch out” and “Life does not consist” in Luke 12:15 (NIV). Here is the ASV version: (Luk.12:15) And he said unto them, Take heed, and keep yourselves from all covetousness: for a man's life consisteth not in the abundance of the things which he possesseth. (This is a very important warning for the true people of God at this point in time for great prosperity will come to test you. Please read this carefully: (1Ti.6:5-10) wranglings of men corrupted in mind and bereft of the truth, supposing that godliness is a way of gain. (6) But godliness with contentment is great gain: (7) for we brought nothing into the world, for neither can we carry anything out; (8) but having food and covering we shall be therewith content. (9) But they that are minded to be rich fall into a temptation and a snare and many foolish and hurtful lusts, such as drown men in destruction and perdition. (10) For the love of money is a root of all kinds of evil: which some reaching after have been led astray from the faith, and have pierced themselves through with many sorrows.) Filling in the cracks in this dream to perfect the house and purify it reminds us of this revelation of Hermas. The Shepherd of Hermas: Vision of the Tower Chapters 5-7 “The building of the tower will be finished, and all will rejoice together around the tower, and they will glorify God, because the tower is finished.” I asked her, saying, “Lady, I should like to know what became of the stones, and what was meant by the various kinds of stones?” In reply she said to me, “Not because you are more deserving than all others that this revelation should be made to you … Tell them that all these things are true, and that none of them is beyond the truth. All of them are firm and sure, and established on a strong foundation.” “Hear now, with regard to the stones which are in the building. Those square white stones which fitted exactly into each other, are apostles, bishops, teachers, and deacons, who have lived in godly purity, and have acted as bishops and teachers and deacons chastely and reverently to the elect of God. Some of them have fallen asleep, and some still remain alive. And they have always agreed with each other, and been at peace among themselves, and listened to each other. On account of this, they join exactly into the building of the tower.” “But who are the stones that were dragged from the depths, and which were laid into the building and fitted in with the rest of the stones previously placed in the tower?” “They are those who suffered for the Lord's sake.” “But I wish to know, O Lady, who are the other stones which were carried from the land.” “Those,” she said, “which go into the building without being polished, are those whom God has approved of, for they walked in the straight ways of the Lord and practiced His commandments.” “But who are those who are in the act of being brought and placed in the building?” “They are those who are young in faith and are faithful. But they are admonished by the angels to do good, for no iniquity has been found in them.” “Who then are those whom they rejected and cast away?” “These are they who have sinned, and wish to repent. On this account they have not been thrown far from the tower, because they will yet be useful in the building, if they repent. Those then who are to repent, if they do repent, will be strong in faith, if they now repent while the tower is building. For if the building be finished, there will not be more room for anyone, but he will be rejected. This privilege, however, will belong only to him who has now been placed near the tower.” “As to those who were cut down and thrown far away from the tower, do you wish to know who they are? They are the sons of iniquity, and they believed in hypocrisy, and wickedness did not depart from them. For this reason they are not saved, since they cannot be used in the building on account of their iniquities. Wherefore they have been cut off and cast far away on account of the anger of the Lord, for they have roused Him to anger. But I shall explain to you the other stones which you saw lying in great numbers, and not going into the building. Those which are rough are those who have known the truth and not remained in it, nor have they been joined to the saints. On this account are they unfit for use.” “Who are those that have rents?” “These are they who are at discord in their hearts one with another, and are not at peace amongst themselves: they indeed keep peace before each other, but when they separate one from the other, their wicked thoughts remain in their hearts. These, then, are the rents which are in the stones. But those which are shortened are those who have indeed believed and have the larger share of righteousness; yet they have also a considerable share of iniquity, and therefore they are shortened and not whole.” “But who are these, Lady, that are white and round, and yet do not fit into the building of the tower?” She answered and said, “How long will you be foolish and stupid, and continue to put every kind of question and understand nothing? These are those who have faith indeed, but they have also the riches of this world. When, therefore, tribulation comes on account of their riches and business, they deny the Lord.” I answered and said to her, “When then, will they be useful for the building, Lady?” “When the riches that now seduce them have been circumscribed, then will they be of use to God. For as a round stone cannot become square unless portions be cut off and cast away, so also those who are rich in this world cannot be useful to the Lord unless their riches be cut down. Learn this first from your own case. When you were rich, you were useless; but now you are useful and fit for life. Be ye useful to God; for you also will be used as one of these stones.” “Now the other stones which you saw cast far away from the tower, and falling upon the public road and rolling from it into pathless places, are those who have indeed believed, but through doubt have abandoned the true road. Thinking, then, that they could find a better, they wander and become wretched, and enter upon pathless places. But those which fell into the fire and were burned are those who have departed for ever from the living God; nor does the thought of repentance ever come into their hearts, on account of their devotion to their lusts and to the crimes which they committed. Do you wish to know who are the others which fell near the waters, but could not be rolled into them? These are they who have heard the word and wish to be baptized in the name of the Lord; but when the chastity demanded by the truth comes into their recollection, they draw back and again walk after their own wicked desires.” She finished her exposition of the tower. But I, shameless as I yet was, asked her, “Is repentance possible for all those stones which have been cast away and did not fit into the building of the tower, and will they yet have a place in this tower?” “Repentance,” said she, “is yet possible, but in this tower they cannot find a suitable place.” (In other words, they will not be among the first-fruits but will have to be crucified of their sinful nature.) “But in another and much inferior place they will be laid, and that, too, only when they have been tortured and completed the days of their sins. And on this account will they be transferred, because they have partaken of the righteous Word. And then only will they be removed from their punishments when the thought of repenting of the evil deeds which they have done has come into their hearts. But if it does not come into their hearts, they will not be saved, on account of the hardness of their heart.” House of Idle = Idols Sandy Shaw - 08/29/2011 (David's notes in red) Sandy Shaw called me on 3/14/21 and said the Lord told her that this dream is to be shared for the time we are in now. On 3/13/21, Sandy said, “I woke up at 3:33 am and was having trouble going back to sleep, so I started praying and was able to go back to sleep. I then dreamed I was sitting on a bench under the shade of a tree on a really sunny day. I was looking across a field when, all of a sudden, I felt the presence of God behind and around me. I was terrified to turn around and look. He placed His hand on my right shoulder and said, “Sandra, remember your Idle/Idol dream? That's for now! Share it.” When I woke up, the clock said 5:55 am. (God will give grace to overcome) So here is the dream below that the Lord was saying is for NOW: In a dream, I was standing in front of a house with Spanish-style stucco. (This represents the house of apostate Christianity. Jesus warned us that the house that was built on sand would not survive the storm of life, and the three little pigs warned us that houses of inferior material wouldn't stand up to the big bad wolf. He warned that the house built on obedience to the Word will stand. The stucco in this house is like untempered mortar. (Eze.13:8-11) Therefore thus saith the Lord Jehovah: Because ye have spoken falsehood, and seen lies, therefore, behold, I am against you, saith the Lord Jehovah. (9) And my hand shall be against the prophets that see false visions, and that divine lies: they shall not be in the council of my people, neither shall they be written in the writing of the house of Israel, neither shall they enter into the land of Israel; and ye shall know that I am the Lord Jehovah. (10) Because, even because they have seduced my people, saying, Peace; and there is no peace; and when one buildeth up a wall, behold, they daub it with untempered mortar: (11) say unto them that daub it with untempered mortar, that it shall fall: there shall be an overflowing shower; and ye, O great hailstones, shall fall; and a stormy wind shall rend it. … (14) So will I break down the wall that ye have daubed with untempered mortar, and bring it down to the ground, so that the foundation thereof shall be uncovered; and it shall fall, and ye shall be consumed in the midst thereof: and ye shall know that I am Jehovah. (Eze.22:28) And her prophets have daubed for them with untempered mortar, seeing false visions, and divining lies unto them, saying, Thus saith the Lord Jehovah, when Jehovah hath not spoken.) There was a patio to get to the front door of this house. I saw people on the patio talking on cell phones and playing games on the Internet. Girls were talking to their boyfriends, making idle chit-chat, etc. I noticed a man standing next to me and I didn't know who he was until he spoke and asked, “How does this edify Me?” Realizing that it was Jesus talking, I said, “Lord, forgive us; we don't realize”. (The house or tabernacle being covered with Spanish-style stucco represents our old nature that is foreign to the Lord and the self-delusion that is contrary to righteousness in serving a false Jesus of our own making. (Eze.22:24-30) Son of man, say unto her, Thou art a land that is not cleansed, nor rained upon in the day of indignation. (25) There is a conspiracy of her prophets in the midst thereof, like a roaring lion ravening the prey: they have devoured souls; they take treasure and precious things; they have made her widows many in the midst thereof. (26) Her priests have done violence to my law, and have profaned my holy things: they have made no distinction between the holy and the common, neither have they caused men to discern between the unclean and the clean, and have hid their eyes from my sabbaths (ceasing from our own works), and I am profaned among them. (27) Her princes in the midst thereof are like wolves ravening the prey, to shed blood, and to destroy souls, that they may get dishonest gain. (28) And her prophets have daubed for them with untempered mortar, seeing false visions, and divining lies unto them, saying, Thus saith the Lord Jehovah, when Jehovah hath not spoken. (29) The people of the land have used oppression, and exercised robbery; yea, they have vexed the poor and needy, and have oppressed the sojourner wrongfully. (30) And I sought for a man among them, that should build up the wall, and stand in the gap before me for the land, that I should not destroy it; but I found none.) We walked across the patio and through the front door into the house. To the left was an area full of people watching TVs. All different types of TVs: old consoles, new flat screens, etc. -- all sizes. I saw old TV programs: Father Knows Best, The Patty Duke Show, The Andy Griffith Show, and an old game show. (Oh, how things have changed!) I heard “Queen for a Day”. There were soap operas on. The Lord asked, “How does this edify Me?” I said, “I'm sorry, Lord”. (Rev.18:2-8) ...Fallen, fallen is Babylon the great, and is become a habitation of demons, and a hold of every unclean spirit, and a hold of every unclean and hateful bird. (3) For by the wine of the wrath of her fornication all the nations are fallen; and the kings of the earth committed fornication with her, and the merchants of the earth waxed rich by the power of her wantonness. (4) And I heard another voice from heaven, saying, Come forth, my people, out of her, that ye have no fellowship with her sins, and that ye receive not of her plagues: (5) for her sins have reached even unto heaven, and God hath remembered her iniquities. (6) Render unto her even as she rendered, and double unto her the double according to her works: in the cup which she mingled, mingle unto her double. (7) How much soever she glorified herself, and waxed wanton, so much give her of torment and mourning: for she saith in her heart, I sit a queen, and am no widow, and shall in no wise see mourning. (8) Therefore in one day shall her plagues come, death, and mourning, and famine; and she shall be utterly burned with fire; for strong is the Lord God who judged her.) To the right side of the room was an area full of computers: new, old, big, small, fancy, iPads, etc. Children were doing homework on Facebook and MySpace — social chat sites. People were playing games and doing work. I got closer to their faces and saw their eyes were big and round like silver dollars, staring at the screen. A big clock is seen with its hands spinning quickly, as if to say, 24-7, this is going on. The Lord asked, “How does this edify Me?” I said, “Lord, forgive me, for I myself am guilty of this”. (These things happening on the right represent God's people justifying themselves and compromising. Saying, “It's okay to spend extra time on these devices because they aren't TVs and we must do our work on them as well. So the line in our conscience gets blurred. This can also represent justification by our own works and essentially is like worshipping a false Jesus that allows compromise contrary to His Word. (2Co.1:2-4) For I am jealous over you with a godly jealousy: for I espoused you to one husband, that I might present you as a pure virgin to Christ. (3) But I fear, lest by any means, as the serpent beguiled Eve in his craftiness, your minds should be corrupted from the simplicity and the purity that is toward Christ. (4) For if he that cometh preacheth another Jesus, whom we did not preach, or if ye receive a different spirit, which ye did not receive, or a different gospel, which ye did not accept, ye do well to bear with him.) Standing in the middle of that room, I looked up and saw there were different levels to the house where the activity got worse, physically and spiritually. I saw and heard people speaking filthily. I didn't see it, but knew that it was pornography, and scary movie sounds were also in the background. People were cursing and saying all kinds of bad things. People were laughing at it when it was not funny. The Lord asked, “How does that edify Me?” (The different levels of the tabernacle represent people's spirit, soul and body. If these activities are occurring in the spirit and soul, they bring a curse on the bodies of these people and death. Spiritual death is reprobation, and it becomes impossible for them to be renewed again unto repentance. Their consciences are seared. They have become reprobated. (Heb.6:4-8) For as touching those who were once enlightened and tasted of the heavenly gift, and were made partakers of the Holy Spirit, (5) and tasted the good word of God, and the powers of the age to come, (6) and then fell away, it is impossible to renew them again unto repentance; seeing they crucify to themselves the Son of God afresh, and put him to an open shame. (7) For the land which hath drunk the rain that cometh oft upon it, and bringeth forth herbs meet for them for whose sake it is also tilled, receiveth blessing from God: (8) but if it beareth thorns and thistles, it is rejected and nigh unto a curse; whose end is to be burned.) We went into another room on the left, and I heard different conversations. One person was trying to tell another something, and he said, “I know”, not letting the other finish because he already knew. (Pro.18:13) He that giveth answer before he heareth, It is folly and shame unto him.) In the same crowd, educated people were having conversations with others, but the educated person never heard anything anyone else said because they were puffed up and boasting that they had a degree in this or a doctorate in that. They knew it all and yet knew nothing. The Lord asked, “How does this edify Me?” (1Ti.6:3-5) If any man teacheth a different doctrine, and consenteth not to sound words, even the words of our Lord Jesus Christ, and to the doctrine which is according to godliness; (4) he is puffed up, knowing nothing, but doting about questionings and disputes of words, whereof cometh envy, strife, railings, evil surmisings, (5) wranglings of men corrupted in mind and bereft of the truth… (2Ti.3:1-9) But know this, that in the last days grievous times shall come. (2) For men shall be lovers of self, lovers of money, boastful, haughty, railers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, (3) without natural affection, implacable, slanderers, without self-control, fierce, no lovers of good, (4) traitors, headstrong, puffed up, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God; (5) holding a form of godliness, but having denied the power thereof. From these also turn away. (6) For of these are they that creep into houses, and take captive silly women laden with sins, led away by divers lusts, (7) ever learning, and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth. (8) And even as Jannes and Jambres withstood Moses, so do these also withstand the truth. Men corrupted in mind, reprobate concerning the faith. (9) But they shall proceed no further. For their folly shall be evident unto all men…) To the right in that room were people bickering over trivial matters. One conversation that stands out is, “Who took my Kool-Aid?” I looked around and realized that all these people were carrying Bibles, and I realized they were all 'Christians'. The whole house was full of people professing to be Christians. The Lord asked, “How does this edify Me?” I said, “Lord, forgive us”. (Many worldly people associate 'religious fanatics' and cult members with Jim Jones. And they say things to Christians like, “Don't drink the Kool-Aid!” In other words, don't fall for the deceptions and traps of religion. James Warren Jones (May 13, 1931 – November 18, 1978) was an American cult leader, preacher, and self-professed faith healer. He launched The Peoples Temple in Indiana during the 1950s. Jones and his inner circle orchestrated a mass murder-suicide of himself and his followers in his jungle commune at Jonestown, Guyana, on November 18, 1978. Jones ordered and likely coerced the mass suicide and mass murder of 918 commune members, 304 of them children, almost all by cyanide-poisoned Flavor Aid (or Kool-Aid). (1Pe.5:8) Be sober, be watchful: your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour;) We went into another room and stood in the doorway. Small children were running around the room, jumping on chairs, sofas, pulling down curtains, and being very mischievous. Their parents were in the middle of the room, oblivious to what the children were doing -- “running wild”. They were so self-absorbed in what they were doing and their own desires that they were blind to what their children were doing. The Lord asked, “How does this edify Me?” I said, “Lord, I'm sorry”. (Many of God's people are not self-disciplined to stay in God's Word; therefore, the fruit that they bring forth is disorderly confusion and does not effectively edify the Body of Christ. (Isa.26:3) Thou wilt keep him in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on thee…) We went into another room and saw people holding their Bibles. They tried to step forward, saying, “Yes, the Lord has told me to do this”. But before they stepped forward, they stepped right back and said, “No, no, He didn't tell me”. I saw people holding their Bibles open, saying, “The Lord has shown me this”, and then saying, “No, no, He didn't show me anything”. Then I saw people holding phones, saying, “The Lord told me to say this”, and then, “No, no, never mind; He didn't say anything”. They were never sure of anything they did and were procrastinating in the name of the Lord. The Lord asked, “How does this edify Me?” (Jas.1:5-8) But if any of you lacketh wisdom, let him ask of God, who giveth to all liberally and upbraideth not; and it shall be given him. (6) But let him ask in faith, nothing doubting: for he that doubteth is like the surge of the sea driven by the wind and tossed. (7) For let not that man think that he shall receive anything of the Lord; (8) a double-minded man, unstable in all his ways.) We then went through sliding glass doors and saw a man sitting in a chair covering his face with his hands. He was being attacked by Christians who were standing around him and yelling, “How do you know that you know the Lord?” “Why did He tell you that and not me?” “Why do you think you are so privileged that you know and hear the Lord?” “Do you think you are somebody?” “You don't know your Word”. “You don't know God”. “Who do you think you are?” “How do you know you are not hearing demons?” The Lord asked, “How does this edify Me?” (Gal.5:13-21) For ye, brethren, were called for freedom; only use not your freedom for an occasion to the flesh, but through love be servants one to another. (14) For the whole law is fulfilled in one word, even in this: Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself. (15) But if ye bite and devour one another, take heed that ye be not consumed one of another. (16) But I say, walk by the Spirit, and ye shall not fulfil the lust of the flesh. (17) For the flesh lusteth against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh; for these are contrary the one to the other; that ye may not do the things that ye would. (18) But if ye are led by the Spirit, ye are not under the law. (19) Now the works of the flesh are manifest, which are these: fornication, uncleanness, lasciviousness, (20) idolatry, sorcery, enmities, strife, jealousies, wraths, factions, divisions, parties, (21) envyings, drunkenness, revellings, and such like; of which I forewarn you, even as I did forewarn you, that they who practise such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God.) I felt such conviction during this dream for not praying, fasting or reading my Word. (These are actions which would warn us away from dangers to come.) I have been guilty of letting my time be idle = idol. A few days later, on 9/04/11, (911) I received Ephesians 5 as a reminder. Briefly this chapter is about: (Eph.5:1-2) Exhortation to brotherly love. (Eph.5:3-14) Cautions against several sins. (Eph.5:15-21) Directions to a contrary behavior, and to relative duties. (Eph.5:22-33) The duties of wives and husbands are enforced by the spiritual relation between Christ and the church.
This powerful exploration of Romans 10 confronts us with a beautiful paradox at the heart of the gospel: salvation is freely offered to everyone who calls on the name of the Lord, yet God sovereignly knows who will respond. We're challenged to hold both truths simultaneously - divine election and human responsibility - like viewing a cone that appears as both a circle and a triangle depending on our perspective. The message emphasizes that we live in prophetically significant times, with ancient biblical prophecies about nations like Persia (modern-day Iran) unfolding before our eyes. This isn't cause for panic but for peace, because we've read the end of the book and know God remains in control. The call is urgent: we are the generation chosen to proclaim Christ in these last days. Every believer is commissioned as a preacher, sent into the mission field of daily life to share the hope within us with gentleness and respect. Our lives should radiate such peace amid chaos that others ask what makes us different. The question isn't whether God's promise is available - it's whether we'll answer the call to be those with beautiful feet who carry the good news to a world desperately needing to hear it.Sermon Notes – Romans 10:13–21 -------------------------------- DETAILED NOTES -------------------------------- I. The Promise Is Persuasive (vv. 13, Joel 2:32) - “Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.” - No boundaries: not race, class, morality, background, or performance. - Tension: - God elects, calls, saves (Rom 8:29–30). - Yet the invitation is to “everyone.” - Analogy: cone = circle from one angle, triangle from another; we lack the extra “dimension” to fully grasp how divine sovereignty and human responsibility fit together. - In Joel 2:32 both sides appear: - “Everyone who calls…shall be saved.” - “…among the survivors shall be those whom the Lord calls.” II. The Power of Preaching (vv. 14–15; 1 Pet 3:15; 1 Cor 1:18–21) - Paul's “how” chain (reversed): 5. Beautiful are the feet of those who preach good news. 4. They can't preach unless sent. 3. They can't hear without someone preaching. 2. They can't believe what they've never heard. 1. They can't call on whom they haven't believed. - Foundational issue: Do we know the good news well enough to share it? - Preaching isn't just for pastors; every believer is “sent” (Eph 4:12). - Our lives and testimonies are part of the message; God uses “the folly” of weak people with a perfect gospel to save. - In a world of noise, fear (wars, economy, confusion), believers' peace and confidence are a powerful witness. III. The Problem of Unbelief (vv. 16–21) 1. Lack of Faith - Faith comes by hearing, and hearing through the word of Christ (v.17). - Salvation is received only by faith in Christ's finished work (Rom 5:2; Eph 2:8; Heb 11). - We are more “blessed” than those who saw Jesus physically but did not have to (John 20:29). 2. Willful Ignorance / Suppression (Ps 19; Rom 1) - Creation universally proclaims God's glory; no one has a valid excuse. - Evolution and materialism often used to dodge accountability to a Creator. - If there is a Creator and an Author, then His standards are binding. 3. Pride (esp. Israel's example) - Israel had maximum revelation yet often refused God. - Called to be a light to the nations (Isa 49:6; Mic 4:1–2) but hoarded truth instead. - Jonah: a prophet who would “rather die” than see Gentiles repent; a picture of nationalistic pride and spiritual hard-heartedness. 4. Love of Sin (John 3:16–21; Rom 1:32) - People love darkness rather than light because their deeds are evil. - Not only practice sin but approve of others who do. - We resist God like a child shouting “no” to every loving boundary. IV. Our Moment in History - Rapid fulfillment of prophecy; increasing pressure and confusion. - God is purifying a people who: - Hold to His Word, - Refuse to compromise, - Stand with biblical clarity in a dark, chaotic age. -------------------------------- PRACTICAL APPLICATIONS -------------------------------- 1. Clarify the Gospel - Write out the gospel in a few sentences; practice explaining it simply. 2. Live as “Sent Ones” - Ask daily: “Lord, who are you sending me to today?” - Look for people who notice your peace, then share the reason for your hope (1 Pet 3:15). 3. Strengthen Your Faith - Spend regular time in Scripture—especially Romans, John, and Psalms—to deepen confidence in Christ. 4. Confront Pride and Sin - Ask the Spirit to reveal areas where you: - Assume you “deserve” salvation, or - Refuse to surrender favorite sins. Repent quickly. 5. Grow in Bold, Gentle Witness - Pray for boldness + gentleness. - Set a goal: share your testimony or the gospel with at least one person this week. -------------------------------- DISCUSSION QUESTIONS -------------------------------- 1. How do you personally hold together “everyone who calls” and God's sovereign election without dismissing either? 2. On a scale of 1–10, how prepared do you feel to explain the gospel? What would help you grow? 3. Where have you seen God use your story (testimony) to impact someone else? 4. Which obstacle to belief hits closest to home for you: lack of faith, pride, or love of sin? Why? 5. In what ways might we be acting like Jonah—resenting or avoiding certain people or groups God wants to reach? 6. What specific steps can your group take to live more as “sent ones” in your workplaces, schools, and neighborhoods?
LES 66Mijn geluk en mijn functie zijn één.Je zult ongetwijfeld hebben opgemerkt dat we in de laatste lessen steeds de nadruk hebben gelegd op het verband tussen het vervullen van jouw functie en het bereiken van geluk. Dit gebeurde omdat jij niet werkelijk het verband ziet. Er bestaat echter meer dan alleen maar een verband hiertussen: ze zijn hetzelfde. Hun vorm is verschillend, maar hun inhoud is volkomen gelijk.Het ego voert voortdurend strijd met de Heilige Geest over de fundamentele vraag wat jouw functie is. Zo voert het ook voortdurend strijd met de Heilige Geest over wat jouw geluk is. Het is geen wederzijdse strijd. Het ego valt aan en de Heilige Geest reageert niet. Hij weet wat jouw functie is. Hij weet dat het jouw geluk is.Vandaag zullen we proberen voorbij te gaan aan deze totaal zinloze strijd en uit te komen bij de waarheid omtrent jouw functie. We zullen ons niet inlaten met onzinnig geredetwist over wat die is. We zullen niet hopeloos verwikkeld raken in het definiëren van geluk en het bepalen van de middelen om dat te bereiken. We zullen niet toegeven aan het ego door te luis teren naar zijn aanvallen op de waarheid. We zijn alleen blij dat we erachter kunnen komen wat de waarheid is.Onze langere oefenperiode beoogt vandaag jouw acceptatie van het feit dat er niet alleen een heel wezenlijk verband is tussen je geluk en de functie die God jou heeft gegeven, maar dat ze in feite identiek zijn. God schenkt jou niets dan geluk. Daarom moet de functie die Hij jou gegeven heeft wel geluk zijn, zelfs als het iets anders lijkt. De oefeningen van vandaag zijn een poging aan deze verschillen in verschijningsvorm voorbij te gaan, en een gemeenschappelijke inhoud te onderkennen waar die in waarheid bestaat.Begin de tien à vijftien minuten durende oefenperiode met het herhalen van deze gedachten:God schenkt mij niets dan geluk.Hij heeft mij mijn functie gegeven.Dus moet mijn functie geluk zijn.Probeer de logica in deze opeenvolging te zien, ook al aanvaard je de conclusie nog niet meteen. Alleen als de twee eerste gedachten onjuist zijn, kan de conclusie onwaar zijn. Laten we daarom tijdens de oefening een ogenblik nadenken over de premissen.De eerste premisse is dat God jou niets dan geluk schenkt. Dit zou natuurlijk onwaar kunnen zijn, maar om onwaar te zijn is het nodig God te definiëren als iets wat Hij niet is. Liefde kan niet schenken wat slecht is, en wat geen geluk is, is slecht. God kan niet geven wat Hij niet bezit, en Hij kan niet bezitten wat Hij niet is. Als God jou niet uitsluitend geluk geeft, moet Hij wel slecht zijn. En het is deze definitie van Hem die jij gelooft als je de eerste premisse niet aanvaardt.De tweede premisse is dat God jou je functie heeft gegeven. We hebben al gezien dat je denkgeest slechts twee delen heeft. Het ene wordt door het ego beheerst en is samengesteld uit illusies. Het andere is de woonplaats van de Heilige Geest, waar de waarheid verblijft. Er zijn geen andere gidsen dan deze twee waartussen je kunt kiezen, en er zijn geen andere uitkomsten mogelijk als gevolg van je keuze dan de angst die het ego altijd verwekt en de liefde die de Heilige Geest altijd ter vervanging daarvan biedt.Dus moet het zo zijn dat jouw functie of door God wordt vastgesteld via Zijn Stem, of wordt opgesteld door het ego, dat jij gemaakt hebt om Hem te vervangen. Welk van beide is waar? Als niet God jou je functie heeft gegeven, moet het wel het geschenk van het ego zijn. Heeft het ego eigenlijk wel geschenken te vergeven, aangezien het immers zelf een illusie is en alleen de illusie van geschenken biedt?Denk hier vandaag tijdens de langere oefenperiode eens over na. Denk ook na over de vele schijnvormen die jouw functie in je denkgeest heeft aangenomen, en de talrijke manieren waarop jij hebt geprobeerd onder leiding van het ego verlossing te vinden. Heb je die gevonden? Was je gelukkig? Hebben ze jou vrede gebracht? We hebben vandaag heel veel eerlijkheid nodig. Herinner je de uitkomsten eerlijk en overweeg ook of het ooit redelijk was geluk te verwachten van iets wat het ego ooit heeft voorgesteld. Toch is het ego het enige alternatief voor de Stem van de Heilige Geest.Je zult naar waanzin luisteren of de waarheid horen. Probeer deze keuze te maken terwijl je nadenkt over de premissen waarop onze conclusie rust. Wij kunnen deze conclusie delen, maar geen andere. Want God Zelf deelt die met ons. Het idee van vandaag is een volgende reuzenstap om het gelijke als gelijk, en het verschillende als verschillend waar te nemen. Aan de ene kant staan alle illusies. Alle waarheid staat aan de andere kant. Laten we vandaag proberen in te zien dat alleen de waarheid waar is.Bij de korte oefenperioden, waarvan je vandaag het meest nut zult hebben als je ze tweemaal per uur doet, wordt deze vorm van toepassing voorgesteld:Mijn geluk en mijn functie zijn één, omdat God ze mij beide gaf.Het vergt niet meer dan een minuut, en waarschijnlijk minder, om deze woorden langzaam te herhalen en er even over na te denken terwijl je ze uitspreekt.Alle tekst- werk en handboek klassen van Een Cursus in Wonderen met Elbert nu te beluisteren en te bekijken op https://decursusmetelbert.nl
Het was een drastisch experiment. Een nieuwe natie beginnen met een tot in de puntjes uitgevoerde trias politica, 250 jaar geleden de meest moderne theorie van de Franse politieke filosofie. De Amerikanen durfden het aan, ze begonnen een republiek met een gekozen volksvertegenwoordiging, een gekozen staatshoofd van beperkte termijn en met onafhankelijke rechtspraak en een Hooggerechtshof. Vader des vaderlands George Washington werd dat staatshoofd, boven de partijen en gespeend van persoonlijke ambitie. Die volksvertegenwoordiging werd meteen gekozen, tussen november 1788 en maart 1789. Het experiment werd zonder omhalen concreet gemaakt en uitgeprobeerd. Lukte dat? Hoe dan? Merk je daar nu nog wat van? Is die volksvertegenwoordiging van toen nog herkenbaar in het huidige Huis van Afgevaardigden? Hoe werkt dat parlement in de dagelijkse praktijk? Jaap Jansen en PG Kroeger duiken daar in met Pirmin Olde Weghuis, die in 2015 als jong medewerker op Capitol Hill rondliep en zo een blik kon werpen in die machinekamer van een wereldmacht, in dat hart van de historie van die 250 jaar oude democratie. *** Deze aflevering is mede mogelijk gemaakt met donaties van luisteraars die we hiervoor hartelijk danken.

Grace Napolitano was al in de 80 en vertegenwoordigde haar San Gabriel Valley in California al decennia. Noordwest van Los Angeles was haar district gevuld met suburbs met in meerderheid Latino-kiezers. Elke twee jaar kon zij als Democraat op hen rekenen bij weer een volgende herverkiezing. Als stagiair uit Nederland kon Pirmin overal rondkijken, assisteren bij contacten met dat district en Napolitano’s kiezers en zo de sfeer en dagelijkse werkzaamheden van het Huis meebeleven. En hij ontmoette ook andere legendes, zoals de rechterhand van Martin Luther King, ooit een rebelse studentenleider: John Lewis, de man van “Make trouble, good trouble.” Het Huis – samen met de Senaat het Congres - is een volwaardig deel van de trias en heeft een eigen kiezersmandaat. Al vanaf dag één was het een door en door politieke arena, ook al beriep men zich steeds op 'bipartisanship' en 'nationaal belang'. In het Huis wordt geknokt met machtsmiddelen. Bovendien is het Huis - anders dan in Europa gebruikelijk - de maker van de federale begroting. De speaker bezit hier de macht over de schatkist, niet de president! En de zittingstermijn van twee jaar dwingt de leden van het Huis permanent hun district en de achterban daar alle aandacht te geven. Pirmin Olde Weghuis zag ook dat in de praktijk. In de 250 jaar historie is veel veranderd, niet in het minst de locaties en faciliteiten van het Huis. Maar het opvallendst is toch hoe wéinig er veranderd is. Veel van de zeden, begrippen en machtsfactoren zijn nog altijd achttiende-eeuws en grijpen terug naar het bewind van legendarische voorzitters en Huis-leden die een groot stempel drukten op de geschiedenis van de democratie. De eerste speaker, Frederick Muhlenberg, zette al direct de toon bij het door en door machtspolitieke invullen van deze functie. Hij was politiek leider van de meerderheid van de nieuwgekozen leden én de voorzitter die de orde en agenda van het Huis bewaakte. Dat is sindsdien nooit meer veranderd. De meest legendarische parlementariër was niet een van de speakers, maar een voormalig president. Alleen John Quincy Adams werd na zijn termijn als president (1824-1828) lid van het Huis en excelleerde in wetgeving en strijd tegen de slavernij en voor de burgerrechten. 'Old man eloquent' stierf in zijn bankje tijdens een vergadering in 1848. Andere speakers waren minstens zo effectief en machtig. Henry Clay was bijvoorbeeld ook nog Senator, Minister van Buitenlandse Zaken en de grote inspirator van Abraham Lincoln. En een groot gokker, overigens. Nicholas Longworth was fameus om de elegante, moeiteloze manier waarmee hij de macht van de speaker over het Huis onaantastbaar wist te maken. "Een Tsaar, maar je had dat niet door." Fameuzer was nog dat hij trouwde met ‘de prinses van Washington DC', presidentsdochter Alice Roosevelt. Zij werd bijna honderd, ontmoette meer presidenten dan wie ook, was berucht om haar scherpe tong, machtige netwerk en als de ontdekker van Richard Nixon. Niemand was vaker en langer speaker dan 'Mister Sam'. Sam Rayburn was van 1913 tot 1961 lid van het Huis, invloedrijk wetgever voor de modernste infrastructuur en 17 jaar lang de speaker. Franklin Delano Roosevelt had ontzag voor hem, wist ook hoe loyaal hij was, wist van zijn onkreukbare integriteit en hoe hij de grootste staatsgeheimen - zoals de bouw van de atoombom - kon wegmoffelen in de begroting. Rayburn was een van de zeer weinigen die precies wist wat hier geprobeerd werd te ontdekken en te realiseren. Zijn protegé - net als hij uit Texas - was Lyndon Johnson, wiens carrière hij tot zijn dood met alle middelen bevorderde. Ale speakers na 'Mister Sam' zijn diens discipelen gebleken. Tip O'Neill in zijn openlijke machtsstrijd met zowel partijgenoot Jimmy Carter als met opponent Ronald Reagan. Nancy Pelosi als eerste vrouw die bijna zo lang als Rayburn diende en wier greep op het Huis en de president bijna zo legendarisch werd. De MAGA-speakers van nu kunnen niet in hun schaduw staan. Dat eigen mandaat binnen de trias politica hebben zij bijna geheel verspeeld. Ook daarom zullen de 'midterms' van november zo cruciaal blijken. *** Verder luisteren 250 jaar Verenigde Staten 281 - Fourth of July: Amerika reisgids voor politieke junkies https://art19.com/shows/betrouwbare-bronnen/episodes/d1f6fb79-49b3-456e-a7b3-b09ddf2a5ae8 382 - 250 jaar Verenigde Staten: de Boston Tea Party https://art19.com/shows/betrouwbare-bronnen/episodes/c44ec04f-9408-41be-b5e3-3fab8905ab66 519 - Thomas Jefferson, de revolutionaire schrijver van de Onafhankelijkheidsverklaring https://art19.com/shows/betrouwbare-bronnen/episodes/62bc338c-78f6-4cba-a7ab-1718ce679e81 459 – Rolmodel George Washington https://art19.com/shows/betrouwbare-bronnen/episodes/92f012be-cd93-4928-b3b3-5bef409c6bca 397 - Benjamin Franklin, Zijner Majesteits meest loyale rebel https://art19.com/shows/betrouwbare-bronnen/episodes/18e40074-a4f4-4752-8dc9-6fbdaf8c91f0 513 – Tanks rollen door Washington DC, 250 jaar US Army https://art19.com/shows/betrouwbare-bronnen/episodes/d60c7997-538c-4064-a0fc-b21dd2e2478d 494 - Trumps aanval op de geschiedenis en de geest van Amerika https://art19.com/shows/betrouwbare-bronnen/episodes/ec4b170a-05a9-4af3-9010-c0986376dd3a 142 - De smerigste verkiezingscampagnes in de Amerikaanse geschiedenis https://art19.com/shows/betrouwbare-bronnen/episodes/2975aea6-29e6-4756-acfa-b331cbcf4f0c Grote parlementariërs 473 - 2025. 200 jaar John Quincy Adams president https://art19.com/shows/betrouwbare-bronnen/episodes/1aeb5474-57fe-49a8-a98a-d014372079c3 475 – Trumps rolmodel Andrew Jackson https://art19.com/shows/betrouwbare-bronnen/episodes/06d493a9-b8fd-4fb9-a125-6399192697c0 481 - Donald Trumps nieuwe idool William McKinley, ‘de tarievenkoning’ https://art19.com/shows/betrouwbare-bronnen/episodes/018eaa63-b81a-4b17-9342-e98ee53bf516 221 - Madam Speaker: de spijkerharde charme van Nancy Pelosi https://art19.com/shows/betrouwbare-bronnen/episodes/e8781d8f-a367-4df5-9459-ab071fb9e4ac 472 - Winterboekeneditie - Nancy Pelosi 'The Art of Power' https://art19.com/shows/betrouwbare-bronnen/episodes/8c25a5e4-9cee-4656-b226-8cbbb6f2c6a5 319 - Lyndon B.

Een aaneenschakeling van anekdotes en verhalen en bovendien een teken dat er wellicht toch wel iets meer is hierna. Wat een Chinees goksyndicaat en Van Kooten en De Bie daarmee te maken hebben, hoor je in deze aflevering.
In de schoonmaak werken veel vrouwen en mensen van kleur. Niet geheel toevallig is het óók een sector die totaal ondergewaardeerd wordt. Zonder de schoonmaak draait de maatschappij niet, toch is er weinig waardering voor het zware en belangrijke werk, zijn de rechten van schoonmakers niet op orde en is respect voor het vak en de mensen die erin werken ver te zoeken. Khadija Hyati kent de wereld van binnenuit en staat al jaren op de barricade voor betere werkomstandigheden voor mensen in de schoonmaak. Verder: een geit, de vloerenman, internationale vrouwendag en een conciërge die je zal verbazen.

Amerika opent samen met Israël een grootschalige aanval tegen Iran. Trump noemt als aanleiding het neutraliseren van de ''kwaadaardige activiteiten van Iran''. Maar tegelijkertijd klinken er vanuit de regering verschillende redenen. Waren het Iraanse raketten die Amerika zouden kunnen bereiken, een nucleair gevaar, of was het vooral de wens van Israël? Intussen zijn de gevolgen van dit conflict voelbaar. Volgens de Rode Halve Maan zijn en tot nu toe zo’n 1200 dodelijke slachtoffers. Er zijn Amerikaanse militairen, maar ook burgers in de Golfstaten en Israël omgekomen bij Iraanse tegenaanvallen. De olieprijzen stijgen en het conflict verspreidt zich als een olievlek over het Midden-Oosten.

Rutger (38) leeft veel in angst en schuld. Hij voelt zich overal verantwoordelijk voor, stelt moeilijk grenzen en doet er alles aan om geen fouten te maken. Soms met depressieve periodes en paniekaanvallen tot gevolg. Hoe breekt hij los van alle angst?
Heb jij graag geluisterd naar De laatste zomer? Probeer dan ook Kwammie Rocket's Quarantaine Radioshow, over hoe we omgaan met een grote crisis. Een wetenschapper wordt met de dood bedreigd. Wanneer de grenzen sluiten ontdekt een pril stel dat ze een kind verwachten, maar ze komen vast te zitten in Marokko. Een man probeert zijn verstand te bewaken terwijl hij zonder afleiding 23 uur per dag opgesloten zit in zijn cel. Ondertussen houdt huiskamer-dj Kwammie Rocket de sfeer erin met zijn vintage jazz radio show. Zes jaar na de start van de coronapandemie hoor je verhalen van mensen die in die periode voor ingewikkelde dilemma's kwamen te staan. Achteraf worstelen ze met de vraag: heb ik de juiste keuzes gemaakt? Een NTR podcast van Simone Eleveld en Jop de Vrieze voor NPO Luister, met financiële steun van het NPO-fonds.

The goal is to remind people to pray for persecuted believers as Hebrews 13:3 teaches: “Remember those who are in prison, as bound with them.” We’ve looked at Wang Yi and Early Rain Church’s writings in the aftermath of their arrest and attack in 2018, but I’ve also regularly turned to other persecuted ministers who have gone before, such as Richard Wurmbrand, to give us a voice literally from prison.

There is much to pray for, but I want to focus specifically on reminding us all to pray for the believers in the various countries in the middle of (or even in the periphery of) the current conflict: Iran, Afghanistan, Pakistan, Oman, Yemen, Saudi Arabia, Egypt, Israel, Syria, Jordan, Lebanon, Turkey, Iraq, Kuwait, Bahrain, Qatar, and the United Arab Emirates (those are just off the top of my head, although I think that covers most of the nations either bordering Iran or somehow involved in the conflict).

Op woensdag 18 maart 2026 gaat Nederland weer ter stembus. Dit keer voor de gemeenteraadsverkiezingen. De taak van het lokaal bestuur is door de energietransitie in nog geen tien jaar fundamenteel veranderd. Gemeenten zijn onmisbaar voor het klimaat- en energiebeleid vanwege hun rol dichtbij burgers en bedrijven. Zij zijn de ‘regisseurs van de warmtetransitie' geworden en worstelen met complexe taken en uitdagingen. Van netcongestie tot windmolens en van ruimtegebrek tot slimme isolatie. Jaap Jansen en PG Kroeger gaan hierover in gesprek met vijf toonaangevende energiewethouders uit vijf heel diverse gemeenten - van high tech wereldstad Eindhoven tot de kleinste in de provincie Noord-Holland, Oostzaan. Van vijf verschillende partijen. In het stadhuis van Eindhoven kruisen zij met elkaar de degens; vertellen van successen en frustraties, maar ontdekken daarbij ook vele thema's waarin ze van elkaar kunnen leren. Tobias van Elferen (D66) uit Nijmegen, Stijn Nijssen (VVD) uit Oostzaan, Rik Thijs (GoenLinks-PvdA) uit Eindhoven, Marco Verloop (SGP) uit Veenendaal en Maaike Zwart (Studenten Techniek In Politiek) uit Delft. *** Deze aflevering is mede mogelijk gemaakt door de Nederlandse Vereniging Duurzame Energie, HollandSolar, NedZero, Energie-Nederland, Netbeheer Nederland, Energie Samen, Energy Storage NL, Energie Beheer Nederland en de gemeente Eindhoven.

Het jaren ‘60 monument is recent helemaal verduurzaamd met de meest effectieve snufjes. Wethouder Rik Thijs noemt het een bewijs dat ook moeizame objecten en buurten wel degelijk planmatig verduurzaamd kunnen worden. Inzet op isolatie op deze manier blijft immers de meest concrete, doeltreffende manier van besparing en energietransitie. Eindhoven, Nijmegen en Veenendaal hebben nog een andere fundamentele stap gezet: een eigen publiek energiebedrijf. Na jaren waarin de nadruk sterk lag op geprivatiseerd aanbod zien we grote gemeenten deze omslag maken. Toenmalig energieminister Rob Jetten bepaalde dat warmtebedrijven voor tenminste 51 procent in publieke handen moesten zijn. Elk van de gemeenten kiest daarbij voor een eigen aanpak. Maar ze zien op allerlei punten vergelijkbare obstakels en uitdagingen. Het dilemma tussen de promotie van individuele keuzes voor warmtepompen en collectief aanbod van warmtenetten is nu echt urgent aan het worden, zegt Maaike Zwart. Groot probleem is dat het rijksgeld voor die netten nog ontbreekt. Vanuit Nijmegen benadrukt Tobias van Elferen dat allianties met woningcorporaties essentieel zijn, omdat daarmee netten voor duizenden woningen tegelijk mogelijk worden. Die corporaties moeten dan wel kúnnen meedoen en geen onvoorziene risico's zien opdoemen. PG merkt op dat deze ontwikkeling in zekere zin een herhaling is van wat Nederland onderging na 1870, toen gemeenten ineens eigen 'gasfabrieken' en andere publieke bedrijven gingen exploiteren. Bij die warmtenetten kan ingespeeld worden op nieuwe ontwikkelingen en nieuwe energiebronnen. Veenendaal werkt met aardwarmte als bron voor een nieuwe bouwlocatie. Delft is een echte voorloper bij zulke geothermie, mede dankzij het wetenschappelijk onderzoek van de Technische Universiteit. Dezer dagen werd een omvangrijk nieuw project gestart. In Veenendaal zoekt Marco Verloop zoveel mogelijk samenwerking met bedrijven om hen te motiveren de energietransitie als eigenbelang te erkennen. Energie delen met elkaar en met buurgemeenten helpt daarbij de grootste risico's van netcongestie te omzeilen: 'local for local' opwekken van energie. Beetje cynisch erkent hij dat Vladimir Poetin zich daar als de ijverigste bondgenoot van zijn gemeentebestuur ontpopte. Het waar mogelijk en met alle middelen omzeilen van netcongestie is een thema waar elk van de wethouders licht wanhopig van wordt. Want hoe uniek elke gemeente ook is, de dreiging van de gevolgen van hardnekkige netcongestie voelen ze allemaal. Een kleine gemeente als Oostzaan heeft dan nauwelijks een apparaat om hier zelf beleid bij te maken. Meeliften met de provincie, met andere medeoverheden en vooral ook slimme trucs durven uithalen zijn de wapens van wethouder Stijn Nijssen in zijn beleidsarsenaal. "Soms moet je gewoon toch de Calimero-kaart trekken”, zegt hij. Maar in Oostzaan en andere gemeenten is ook dat niet genoeg om burgers windmolens op land dichtbij de bebouwing te accepteren. Calimero ontmoet hier NIMBY: niet in mijn achtertuin. Nijssens verzet ontmoet bij zijn vier collega's best wat begrip. Net zo lastig is de ruimtelijke impact van de energietransitie. Van tienduizenden transformatorhuisjes in buurten en dorpen tot hoogspanningstracés door beschermd landschap, het zijn allemaal concrete realiteiten waar gemeenten voor worden geplaatst. Een wat minder directieve, meer meedenkende houding en communicatie van het Rijk en grote partijen als TenneT wordt regelmatig gemist. Niet minder dringend is de behoefte tijdrovende complexe procedures aan te pakken. Maar ook daar geldt: niet van bovenaf afkondigen zonder de concrete know how bij de gemeenten erbij te betrekken. Marco Verloop zegt het zo: "We hebben straks een circulaire economie of we hebben geen economie meer." Dat besef kleurt ook de reactie van de vijf wethouders op de komst van het kabinet-Jetten. Gunstig stemt hen de duidelijk positieve toon en het wervend perspectief. Zorgelijk en kritisch vragen ze om 'boter bij de vis'. Rik Thijs vraagt zich zelfs af of het Klimaatakkoord zo nog wel overeind staat. *** Kijken De live opname van deze aflevering (met beeld!) *** Verder luisteren 562 - De uitgestoken hand van D66, VVD en CDA https://omny.fm/shows/betrouwbare-bronnen/562-de-uitgestoken-hand-van-d66-vvd-en-cda 557 – Hoe overleeft Rob Jetten het premierschap?

Jan, Steven en Chris hebben een gast in de studio! Cynthia, die als vriendin van Hanneke met haar dates is gaan waterverven, schuift aan om met de jongens te gaan… Waterverven! Onder het genot van een glas kinderchampagne bespreken de mannen hoe Robin hoge ogen gooit met de manier waarop hij kennis maakt met de zoon van Pearl, die hem al stiefvader noemt! Over Elsje en Gilbert raken ze niet uitgepraat, maar niet op een positieve manier. De mannen zien weinig ‘echte’ liefde bij beiden, en verwachten dat de reünie voor een nieuwe wending in het verhaal gaat zorgen. In Andorra hangt de liefde in de lucht. André en Debbie lijken elkaar steeds meer te vinden, alleen moeten ze opletten dat de relatie niet te zakelijk gaat worden. Voor nu valt er nog genoeg te ontdekken, iets wat Debbie maar al te graag wil. Bij Claudia lijkt iets unieks te gebeuren, ze wil namelijk met Hans EN Victor verder daten. Een polyamoreuze relatie? Dat lijkt ver weg volgens Chris, want die mannen kunnen elkaar eigenlijk niet uitstaan. Er wordt in Noorwegen afscheid genomen van Thea bij Hans. Hij moet nu zijn gevoelens op een rijtje zetten, want kiest hij voor Thea of gaat hij toch voor het scenario waarvan Steven en Jan voor vrezen: Iris. Steven sluit op poëtische wijze de aflevering af. Met een lach en een traan draagt hij zijn gedicht voor, geïnspireerd op de woorden van Harm in zijn afscheidsgedicht voor Monique.We gaan samen de reünie van Winter Vol Liefde kijken en dat doen we in stijl:- Locatie: Huis van Iemand Anders (Van Woustraat 2, Amsterdam)- Datum: Donderdag 5 maart- Tijd: Vanaf 20:00 uur (zorg dat je je plekje bij een van de schermen claimt!)- Dresscode: Je mooiste, foutste of meest flitsende Apres-ski outfit.

Recorded live at the Southwest International Produce Expo (SWIPE) in Tucson, AZ, this episode features Kristi Novak of HEB. Kristi discusses what it looks like to manage leafy vegetables in today's environment — shifting weather patterns, water constraints in Texas and Mexico, vendor changes, and ongoing tariff conversations. We cover: • How climate and water availability are affecting supply • What vendor realignment looks like in practice • Diversifying sourcing without overreacting • Why prioritization matters when everything feels urgent “We're always going to face challenges. It's just different every time.” A practical conversation about retail decision-making in a volatile market. Recorded live at SWIPE 2026.
"And let us consider one another so as to incite one another to love and good works, not abandoning our own assembling together, as the custom with some is, but exhorting one another; and so much the more as you see the day drawing near." (Heb 10:24-25) This week we continue the series titled, “Exhorting One Another”, with testimonies from brothers and sisters on their experiences of endeavoring with the Lord in their daily life and participating in the Lord's move in Europe. These testimonies were given during a gathering for working saints at the 2024 Thanksgiving Conference in Atlanta, GA.The original recording can be found at: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ndTeTyz5J-o&t=3344s

Do we tremble at His Word as it speaks to our spirit man? If we're in covenant relationship with God, and with others, we must know that He has the power of provision in everything we need as we surrender everything we have.

A sermon from Deuteronomy 34 on the death of Moses—focusing not only on Moses' final moments, but on how he lived in light of a pending, certain death. The message traces the context of Moses' exclusion from the Promised Land (Numbers 20), the seriousness of sin as a denial of God's holiness, and the reality that forgiven sin can still carry temporal consequences. It then highlights Moses' steady faith after God's firm "no" (Deut. 3), showing how true reward is ultimately found not in earthly blessings but in "seeing Him who is invisible" (Heb. 11). The sermon closes by emphasizing God's sovereignty over life and death, the right place of grief, and the believer's hope of final resurrection and seeing Christ face to face.

====================================================SUSCRIBETEhttps://www.youtube.com/channel/UCNpffyr-7_zP1x1lS89ByaQ?sub_confirmation=1==================================================== LECCIÓN DE ESCUELA SABÁTICA I TRIMESTRE DEL 2026Narrado por: Eddie RodriguezDesde: Guatemala, GuatemalaUna cortesía de DR'Ministries y Canaan Seventh-Day Adventist ChurchJUEVES 26 DE FEBREROEL PODER DEL EVANGELIO Lee Colosenses 1:28, 29. ¿Cuál es el enfoque de Pablo aquí? ¿Por qué crees que el adjetivo “todo” se repite en tres ocasiones en diferentes formas (“todos”, “toda”, “todo”)? El centro de la predicación de Pablo era Cristo y este crucificado (1 Cor. 1:23). Según Efesios 5:27, el propósito del sacrificio de Cristo es “presentarla para sí una iglesia gloriosa, sin mancha ni arruga ni cosa semejante; antes, que sea santa e inmaculada”. Por lo tanto, el objetivo de la predicación del evangelio por parte de Pablo era “presentar a todo hombre perfecto en Cristo” (Col. 1:28). Lo hace enseñando y amonestando; es decir, exponiendo los diversos puntos de la doctrina y la práctica cristianas (2 Tes. 2:15; 1 Tim. 4:11; 5:7; Tito 1:9) y advirtiendo acerca de las consecuencias de rechazar el evangelio y de los peligros de los falsos maestros (Hech. 20:29-31; Rom. 16:17). Así es como crecemos para convertirnos en cristianos maduros, aceptando las enseñanzas de las Escrituras y prestando atención a sus advertencias. La madurez es un concepto importante. Los padres de un bebé recién nacido celebran cada hito del desarrollo de su hijo: las primeras palabras, los primeros pasos y las primeras frases leídas. ¿Qué padre no se alarmaría si su hijo no caminara o no hablara después de varios años? El crecimiento y el desarrollo son normales y esperables. Lo mismo ocurre en la vida cristiana. La palabra griega traducida como “perfecto” (teleios) significa “maduro”, “completo”, “plenamente desarrollado”. A medida que el cristiano crece y se desarrolla espiritualmente, percibe cada vez mejor la profundidad de la Ley de Dios y el hecho de que sus requisitos son “inmensos” (Sal. 119:96) y que su jurisdicción se extiende a “los pensamientos y las intenciones del corazón” (Heb. 4:12). De allí que Pablo utilice la palabra “amonestando” o “aconsejando” (NVI) en Colosenses 1:28, pues hay camino que “parece derecho, pero al fin conduce a la muerte” (Prov. 14:12). El discernimiento espiritual proviene del conocimiento de la Palabra de Dios y de la dirección del Espíritu. Las falsas enseñanzas suelen tener algo de verdad, pero añaden o quitan algo a lo que dice la Biblia (ver Isa. 8:20). Por eso suelen tener éxito, ya sea haciendo que las personas duden de lo que Dios dice o al menos cuestionando si ello es realmente posible o aplicable a nuestros días. Debemos ser prudentes como serpientes, pero sencillos como palomas a la hora de distinguir entre la verdad doctrinal y el error. ¿Qué significa ser “perfecto en Cristo” (Col. 1:28)? ¿De qué manera la comprensión de lo que Jesús hizo por nosotros en la Cruz responde esta pregunta?

Mike Voigts is a great man of God, and he loves a lot of the same things I love – spiritual formation, the life of prayer, Asbury Seminary. He also loves HEB … more on that later. His focus is on personal and community spiritual direction … drawing connections between spiritual traditions in the global church. He served as a professor at Asbury SEminary for nine years, and now serves as the lead pastor of Waco First Global Methodist Church. He has written The Fourth Degree of Prayer (Cascade, 2022) and Letters of Ascent: Spiritual Direction in the Letters of Bernard of Clairvaux (Wipf & Stock, 2013). A great contemplative life … enjoy this conversation.
The slimmed-down crew is back in the building this week! We kick things off by catching up on life, AAU basketball media days, and the incredible experience of shooting our first official comedy specials right here at the club. Then, we get into the wild stuff—we call out Target for their questionable Black History Month merch and spark a hilarious debate on the different "vibes" at Houston grocery stores (H-E-B vs. Target vs. Whole Foods). We also dive deep into relationship dynamics, debating if 35 is truly a man's prime, whether you'd pass a lie detector test for your partner, and why the dating pool is shrinking. Plus, we salute J. Cole for his brilliant grassroots marketing run and close out the show with an important conversation on men's mental health.
