37 “This is that Moses who said to the children of Israel, ‘The Lord your God will raise up for you a Prophet like me from your brethren. Him[d] you shall hear.’
38 “This is he who was in the [e]congregation in the wilderness with the Angel who spoke to him on Mount Sinai, and with our fathers, the one who received the living oracles[f] to give to us, 39 whom our fathers would not obey, but rejected. And in their hearts they turned back to Egypt, 40 saying to Aaron, ‘Make us gods to go before us; as for this Moses who brought us out of the land of Egypt, we do not know what has become of him.’ 41 And they made a calf in those days, offered sacrifices to the idol, and rejoiced in the works of their own hands. 42 Then God turned and gave them up to worship the host of heaven, as it is written in the book of the Prophets:
‘Did you offer Me slaughtered animals and sacrifices during forty years in the wilderness,
O house of Israel?
43 You also took up the tabernacle of Moloch,
And the star of your god Remphan,
Images which you made to worship;
And I will carry you away beyond Babylon.’
44 “Our fathers had the tabernacle of witness in the wilderness, as He appointed, instructing Moses to make it according to the pattern that he had seen, 45 which our fathers, having received it in turn, also brought with Joshua into the land possessed by the Gentiles, whom God drove out before the face of our fathers until the days of David, 46 who found favor before God and asked to find a dwelling for the God of Jacob. 47 But Solomon built Him a house.
48 “However, the Most High does not dwell in temples made with hands, as the prophet says:
‘Heaven is My throne,
And earth is My footstool.
What house will you build for Me? says the Lord,
Or what is the place of My rest?
50 Has My hand not made all these things?’
51 “You stiff-necked[g] and uncircumcised in heart and ears! You always resist the Holy Spirit; as your fathers did, so do you. 52 Which of the prophets did your fathers not persecute? And they killed those who foretold the coming of the Just One, of whom you now have become the betrayers and murderers, 53 who have received the law by the direction of angels and have not kept it.”
54 When they heard these things they were [h]cut to the heart, and they gnashed at him with their teeth. 55 But he, being full of the Holy Spirit, gazed into heaven and saw the glory of God, and Jesus standing at the right hand of God, 56 and said, “Look! I see the heavens opened and the Son of Man standing at the right hand of God!”
57 Then they cried out with a loud voice, stopped their ears, and ran at him with one accord; 58 and they cast him out of the city and stoned him. And the witnesses laid down their clothes at the feet of a young man named Saul. 59 And they stoned Stephen as he was calling on God and saying, “Lord Jesus, receive my spirit.” 60 Then he knelt down and cried out with a loud voice, “Lord, do not charge them with this sin.” And when he had said this, he fell asleep.
Good morning and welcome
Our Father which art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name.
Thy kingdom come, Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread.
And forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors.
And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil: For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, forever. Amen

Good morning everyone. I couldn't believe how hot it was yesterday. I am forever the northener I guess thinking I need a sweater or jacket in mid September. It was in the mid eighties yesterday.
We're supposed to be in the mid to upper 80s until Friday when they're saying we should drop to the 70s. I can't wait!!
FBI: 2nd Assassination Attempt on Donald Trump’s Life Thwarted, Gunman Arrested
(Worthy News) – U.S. Secret Service agents shot at and later arrested a man with an AK-47 rifle near Donald Trump’s West Palm Beach, Fla., golf club Sunday afternoon while Trump was on the course. The FBI said it is investigating the incident as an attempted assassination of the former president, the second in two months.
Palm Beach County Sheriff Ric Bradshaw said at a news conference that the Secret Service alerted local authorities that shots were fired about 1:30 p.m. Sunday. A Secret Service agent who was monitoring the course a hole ahead of Trump noticed a man with a rifle pointing the barrel through a chain-link fence near shrubbery that surrounds the course, Bradshaw said. The agent fired on the alleged gunman, who was approximately 300 to 500 yards away from the former president. Trump, the Republican nominee for president, was rushed back to the clubhouse in a golf cart and was unharmed.
A witness told authorities he saw the gunman running from the scene to a car, and was able to get the car’s license plate, Bradshaw said. Agents were able to track the vehicle and arrested the suspect, Bradshaw said. He remains in custody. No other details were released about the suspect.
“Fortunately, we were able to locate a witness that came to us and said, ‘Hey, I saw the guy running out of the bushes. He jumped into a black Nissan, and I took a picture of the vehicle and the tank,’ which was great,” the sheriff said. “So we had that information, … put it out to the license plate readers, and we were able to get a hit on that vehicle on I-95 as it was headed into Martin County. We got a hold of Martin County Sheriff’s Office, alerted them, and they spotted the vehicle and pulled it over and detained the guy.”
Authorities found the rifle, a scope, two backpacks and a GoPro camera in the bushes where the gunman was hiding.
“The FBI has assumed the role as the lead federal law enforcement agency in the investigation of the incident that occurred earlier today at Trump International Golf course here in West Palm Beach, Florida,” Jeffrey Veltri, special agent in charge of the FBI Miami field office, said at the news conference. “We’ve deployed a number of resources, including investigative teams, crisis response team members, bomb technicians and evidence response team members as well.”
Trump told Fox News that he was on the 5th hole when he heard gunshots.
“Tell everybody I am fine and the Secret Service did a great job,” Trump told Fox News.
Bradshaw said that if Trump were a sitting president, there would have been more security around the perimeter of the golf course
Sunday’s incident occurred two months after Trump was the target of an assassination attempt at a campaign rally in Butler, Pa. Trump was grazed by a bullet in his ear in the Pennsylvania shooting just two days before the start of the Republican National Convention. The suspect in the earlier assassination attempt was shot and killed at the scene.
The Secret Service was widely criticized for its lax security efforts after the Pennsylvania attempt. Kimberly Cheatle, the director of the U.S. Secret Service, resigned under heavy pressure.
This is a developing story.
According to my local news report, the would-be assassin supported the democrats, is a small business owner & has been very vocal about his hatred of Trump.
We are hearing he was upset about Ukraine and Trump's stance on that.
The church in the wilderness refers to the Israelites "called out" of Egypt to represent God under the Mosaic Covenant until the Messiah should come.
Galatians 3:19 Wherefore then serveth the law? It was added because of transgressions, till the seed should come to whom the promise was made; and it was ordained by angels in the hand of a mediator. Matthew 11:13 For all the prophets and the law prophesied until John.
Luke 16:16 The law and the prophets were until John: since that time the kingdom of God is preached, and every man presses into it.

...... Funds for Your Journey
Monday, September 16, 2024
In 1869, James Gordon Bennett, the rich publisher of the New York Herald, sent his British correspondent, Henry Stanley, on an expedition to find Dr. David Livingston. Livingston had vanished in Africa in search of the Nile. Bennett reportedly told Stanley, "Draw on me for a thousand pounds today to provide for your equipment. When that's exhausted, draw on me for another thousand, and when that's done draw another, but find Livingston." Now, our God who is richer and more generous, calls you to a greater journey. He calls you to finish the course knowing that in and of yourself, you're weak and may get discouraged. But He doesn't call you to complete the journey in your own strength or your own resources. And likewise, He says to you, "Whatever you need, draw on Me. You'll never exhaust My love, mercy, or cleansing, or use up My strength, righteousness, and grace. You'll receive everything you need to complete your journey with victory, but don't forget...draw on Me".

Good Morning. God Bless All Here Today.

This can also backfire and make Trump more popular. You never know which way it will go.
I’ve read that Iran wants him dead. The liberals give them (Iran) billions of dollars for their terrorism. Of course they (Iran) wants Trump dead.
Of course I think along the same lines however that is not what's happening in our country. Hatred for Trump is unreal. I see it everywhere.
How did we get here…
Said man was little more than a primate (with very little pushback)
Removed prayer, then God from the classroom (with very little pushback)
Implemented "Social Studies" rather than "History" (with very little pushback)
Allowed children to be medicated for acting like children, opening them up for manipulation (with very little pushback)
Removed the loss/reward aspect of life, and substituted it with participation trophies (with very little pushback)
Said: "If it feels good do it." or "Do what thou wilt shall be the whole of the law."
And above all, allowed the dissection of community into separate factions, and played into it. Followed by allowing the government to manipulate society into compliance, showing them how easy it is to mold the masses into whatever they want.
All this has fomented hatred and psychological splits with reality and morality across the spectrum.
P.S.
This is a small list (short version)
The long version contains castrating the churches with 501(c)3, among other things.
That is just exactly what I said to my husband this morning. I don't care about who I personally like. What are their policies, and how does it effect us, our lives and our country. Those are the things I care about. And if you want a good idea about kamalas policies here you go;

I will agree to a point. Where I depart from agreeing is in the fact that there have always been those who have shouted from the rooftops, and warned of that which was being done.
Most however would rather be "sports bros." and Sunday pew occupiers. Bearing very little contrast to the world around them. Rather than being distinctively different than the world, conformed to its image instead. This, in order (in their mind) to court those in the world to "come on in" "I have decked my house with fine linens, scarlet and gold, perfumed my bed, come lay with me." And have produced little that resembles Heaven, and righteousness. Through this, many false teachers have risen, and as with Jerimiah, denounced the truth presented to them. This has led to their captivity in Babylon.
You either have faith, and step over the side of the boat, not according to the logic of the world saying it is impossible, but believing Him that created Heaven and Earth, and all that is therein. And upon His Word, and His authority, just "do it!"
Or you don't.
Without faith, it is impossible to please Him.
That's putting it mildly. I've been gone to the big city. Shopped at Trader Joe's and also took some clothes I don't wear anymore to a shop. That took the longest amount of time.
That's the fallacy. Many think they need to be 501(c)3 to be tax exempt. They do not. They are guaranteed under the Constitution the exemption via the first amendment, yet were conned into "the tax code" to accept this and become an incorporated entity instead. And as such, subject to the will of the government via the tax code. How else do you explain the government shutting down noncompliant churches during the "lock down," and getting away with it?
Definitely not like Nike.
( Nike was the Greek goddess of victory, most frequently recognized as the daughter of Styx [a goddess and river of the Underworld (The River Styx is the main underworld river that the ferryman Charon would take the souls of the dead across into Hades.)] and Pallas [Titan god of battle and warcraft])
The "Swoosh" on the shoe has long been recognized as her symbol.
In Greek mythology, Nike is the Winged Goddess of Victory. The logo is derived from goddess' wing,'swoosh', which symbolises the sound of speed, movement, power and motivation.
Do you know how many guys I know that can recite team stats without a thought, but can't recite one verse of scripture?
