“SEND THEM AWAY . . .”
October 9, 2026 By Leave a Comment
Disciples—misguided about children—to parents—tried to send them away—criticised,
“You shouldn’t bother Jesus.”
“Parents who brought their children to Jesus to lay His hands on them and bless them, were rebuked by the disciples, who were rebuked by Jesus, who welcomed the children in His arms and blessed them.”
Disciples‐‐‐misguided about the crowds—getting late, getting hungry—tried to send them away—to Jesus,
“Send them away, to go buy food for themselves.”
Jesus said, “You feed them. Then Jesus fed thousands with five biscuits and two fish, with leftovers (lots of leftovers).
Discples‐‐‐misguided about hurting woman—uncomfortable—tried to send her away—urged Jesus,
“Send her away—she is bothering us with all her crying out (shouting).”
Then Jesus stopped everything, and healed her.
Family—misguided about older relatives—we ‘can’t’ take care of
them‐‐‐try to send them away—to each other,
“It’s time for a nursing home—better off there.”
The Bible says, “If anyone does not provide for his own, and especially his own household, he has denied the faith and is worse than an unbeliever.”

We must always thank God for putting us in His Company, of believers, to be faithful stewards with everything He entrusted to us, as we do our work heartedly as unto the Lord and not unto man, because it is the Lord Christ we serve.

BAD – SCAREY – DANGEROUS – TERRIBLE – TERRORIZING

“I’m from the government, and I’m here to help? you.”
“I’m running for office.
After I am elected, I will be ‘from the government’, and I will ‘help’ you with all the money that the government has.
I will make your life better.
I will make life fair.
I will make everyone have an equal life.
I will listen to the minorities screaming for everything equal, and I will make their lives better.
I will make sure that people with money participate in getting people without money to have enough money.
Support my cause.
Support my campaign.”
And many people (Amercans, Christians, everyone who is too busy), looking for easier, looking for answers, are falling for lies just because they are uncomfortable before an election.

Unfortunately, history does not look favorably on socialist promises of utopia.
“Any government big enough to give you everything you want, is big enough to take everything you have.”
Governments are more likely to do the latter, because they are made of people who gain power, and then—all previous promises turn into oppressive power.
“Power corrupts—absolute power corrupts absolutely.”
When human nature takes on power, it’s not pretty, ever.
“I would rather not have my wolves in sheep’s clothing.”
-‐‐-‐Senator Ted Crews (commenting on the smooth talk by the demonic Talarico)
How about wolves in spiritual sheep’s clothing !
“I’m from God, and I’m here to help you.”
The Catholic Church played this out, for all history to see (and learn?—not hardly).
The church started with the real promises from Jesus of forgiveness and eternal life.
Then the church gained power, and more power, and control.
The Gospel message of forgiveness went for sale, and the money and the power combined to absolute power, to absolute corruption.
The Catholic Church could, and did, eliminate (kill, burn at the stake) anyone who disagreed with their teaching or their power.
Today in Amerca, the political and the spiritual overlap, as they always do in spite of attempts to separate church and state.
If Christians do not get involved in America NOW, we will suffer the consequences (like everyone else) by those dedicated to our destruction.
● BAD – “Evil abounds (in the government) when good men (in the church) do nothing.”
● SCAREY – What will the government do next, while the church repeats history ?
● DANGEROUS – Government grows more powerful, and churches lose spiritual power.
● TERRIBLE – Government is out of line with our Biblical Constitution, and the church is not leading us back to our spiritual roots.
● TERRORIZING – Government will do anything ‘necessary’ to control everything and everyone, and the church contributes by compliance.

☆TAKE OFF☆ YOUR OWN MASK
September 28, 2026 By Leave a Comment
We know the ‘rules’ about “take care of yourself first or you can’t help someone else”, and the airplane instruction to “put on your own oxygen mask before you help your child with theirs”.
During covid, were were told, and we were forced, to mask up, shield up, distance up, hide from others, not visit family, not look anyone in the eye or see what the rest of their face said, distance ourselves from interaction with everyone, fist bumps instead of handshakes (pretend, don’t touch), get the covid jab or lose your job, comply or you don’t care about others—all this thrust on the people overnight, designed and coordinated to create an entire population that does not trust anyone (making the most of the opportunity for complete control).
And what about, what have we learned (WHAT WE HAVE NOT LEARNED) from the covid mandates, six years ago, and for the next time ?
That time, how many, so many, Americans readily obeyed, out of fear.
— “Obey the health
‘authorities¿¿¿’ (or you’ll die).”
and
— “Obey the government
‘authoritiesXXX’ (or you’ll pay) ! ! !”
I could not believe what I saw when I went to town, and everyone (99%+) was all masked up.
It made me furious that fellow Americans were choosing to follow Fauche (Dr. F ?X?X), like under communism and other dictatorships.
I defined what that really meant in several articles on this site !
(type in the search bar MASK)
(original article MASKS MANIPULATE THE MASSES, followed by PLANNING THE PANDEMIC, please note the dates)
Americans, it’s time to TAKE OFF our masks and all they include, so we can see clearly right now what is destroying our country by dismantling our foundations and our freedoms.
● “You hypocrite, first take the log out of your own eye [TAKE OFF our masks], and then you will see clearly to take the speck out of your brother’s eye! “
PRIDE – VS – GUILT
September 14, 2026 By Leave a Comment
● PRIDE and GUILT—good, bad, ugly
Amazing, how pride and guilt can each be very bad, and each can be very good.
Very Bad
Pride can lead to idolatry—self-worship.
Guilt can lead to despair—self-hatred.
Very Good
Pride can motivate—doing good in what you are good at doing.
Guilt can evaluate—repenting, changing from doing wrong to doing right.
● PRIDE and GUILT—everyday examples
“I love my work.”
“I hate my job.”
“I’m the best at what I do.”
“I’m good, because I do good.”
“I look at what I have accomplished, and I say to myself, . . .”
“I deserve a good retirement (‘eat, drink, and be merry’—or some American version of that).”
“Trying to be spiritual, I wonder if my work could become an idol, if I feel too good about it or love it too much.”
“I feel guilty when I tell my family ‘I have to’ work late.”
“Should I feel guilty when ‘I want to’ work late ?”
“I have to ‘provide’ for my family.”
“I can’t afford, I can’t just decide to give up 14% of my week”. (Sunday—fourth commandment)
“When does hard work make me live longer ?”
“When does hard work make me live less (not as healthy, not as many years, not enjoying the years) ?”
“Hard work makes you live longer, if it doesn’t kill you first.”
“I wonder, ‘Who am I really working for ?’ “
● PRIDE and GUILT—advice, counsel, warning, commands, mandates, encouragement, blessings
Advice to pastors,
“Ministers, wear yourselves out for Christ.”
“Whatever you do, do your work heartily, as to the Lord and not to men . . . It is the Lord Christ you serve.”
“Do you see a man who excels in his work? He will stand before kings.”
“In vain (also “It is vain”) you rise early and stay up late, toiling for bread to eat—for He gives sleep to His beloved.”
“Six days you shall give all you’ve got and do all your work; the seventh is a day of rest, unto the Lord.”
“Don’t ‘spend all you’ve got’ * just trying to stay alive, and not live.”
- “all you’ve got” (time, energy, money, thoughts, capital in your contacts)
Don’t prioritize preparing for retirement.
Don’t count on it.
“Do not store up treasures on earth (unsecured, insecure).”
“Store up treasures in heaven (secured by God).”
repeat: “Do you see a man who excels in his work? He will stand before kings.”
“Whatever your hand finds to do, do it with all your might.”
● PRIDE and GUILT—how it started
Lucifer was ‘the best in heaven’—and he knew it—or he thought so—good looks (beautiful), good gifts (music leader), ambitious ? ¿
THEN—PRIDE—REVOLUTION—KICKED OUT OF HEAVEN ! X ! X ! X
He was guilty, he knew he was guilty, he never admitted he was guilty, he has no road back, ever.
He kept his attitude of pride‐‐‐lying, deceiving and terrorizing God’s creation (man), to get back at God.
● PRIDE and GUILT—final, the end, the last word
The devil will get what he deserves, from God.
And that is the end of the story for the devil, forever.
Pride started all this, and that is a mess, in a messed up world.
But that is not the end of the story, for us, THANK GOD ☆ ☆ ☆
We can take the road back, a narrow road, with limited access, many dangers, with promised help along the way—and not get what we deserve from God.
Paradise can be regained, not for the devil, but for us (not by us), by the sacrifice of Jesus on the cross.
That covers our pride in what we think we can do, and that covers our guilt for what we have done and for what we have not done.
? MORE ADVICE THAN EVER ?
September 9, 2026 By Leave a Comment
In recent decades, why do we have so very much ‘new’ Information Counseling than ever, for living and parenting and being Christiams ?
A universal trademark of all the resources and interviews with ‘experts’ on life and family—they are all presented with a mandate that everyone must get this ‘new’ insight, because we never could know this information before.
The universal, obvious question—how in the world did we make it in the past
without all these helps and answers for questions we weren’t asking ?
It seems like (we think) we can avoid learning through God’s ‘old-fasioned’ methods of discipline, if we get ‘this new book’ that tells exactly what we didn’t know.
I just listened to another presentation on parenting (also offering a ‘how-to’ book)—don’t protect your children from failure or consequences or simple ‘no’.
Yet in our relationship with God and His parenting us, we expect to avoid such discomfort. •
This leaves us with a dilemna of guilt and doubt whenever things don’t go right.
What went wrong because I didn’t do it right, according to . . . ?
If we experience trouble, we turn to all these resources to see what we’re doing wrong—and we miss God’s hand directing every detail—our Heavenly Father using discipline to bring us closer to Himself, because He loves us so much !
“Don’t miss (avoid, reject, despise) God’s ‘adjustments’ (rebukes, corrections, detours, re-directions) in our lives; remember whoever the Lord loves He chastens, and scourges every son He receives.”
(Don’t let modern translations and teaching dilute or
diminish that Word of God.)
We American Christians believe we should not suffer so much, because we know so much.
- There are times when the Parent’s job is to make the child regret what he did.
Final question :
Is the Bible not enough anymore ?
“MISTREATED” – “DISGRACED” – “REWARDED”
September 9, 2026 By Leave a Comment
What does it really mean to follow Jesus ?
- respectable addition to my life
- fire insurance
- avoid tribulation
- escape “great tribulation”
- good for business
- good P/R, mostlyl
NO !
THAT’S NOT WHAT THE BIBLE SAYS !
What does it really mean to follow Jesus ?
(1)Choice
(2)Consequence
(3)Conclusion
If you make the (1)Choice to sincerely follow Jesus—give up the temporary pleasures this sinful world offers . . .•
You will experience the (2)Consequence of that decision—
— MISTREATED like other persecuted Christians (around the world today, and through history).
— DISGRACED for being a ‘Jesus follower’, hated by everyone, everywhere.
— REWARDED, by Jesus, with Jesus, seeing Jesus—greater than anything in the world.
You see the goal, the (3)Conclusion of your choice
- By faith Moses ★chose★ to be ★mistreated★ with God’s people, rather than enjoy the “pleasures of sin”¿ for a season in Egypt, as adopted son of pharoah’s daughter.
