Making a Difference in your Life, in the Parts that are for Keeps!
One—LEARN—action, to gain information or a skill
Two—KNOW—non action, got what you learned
Three—LEARN—action, to do something with what you know
– – –
A person can get One and Two on the internet.
Some people can get Three on the internet.
Some people do not get Three on the internet or by the example of others.
Some people get Three only by ‘have to.’
Every day for forty years God provided complete food, manna, for the people of Israel.
The very day they crossed into the promised land, the manna stopped.
There is a time for waiting on God.
There is a time for action, to fight, to defeat enemies.
It is always a time to ask God what time it is.

Jesus promised that His followers would experience the same opposition that He did.
“they persecuted me; they will persecute you”
And that explains the parallels partially listed above, between Jesus and Trump—
+why Jesus was so hated for doing God’s Will,
+why Trump was so hated for doing God’s Will,
AND, why everyone committed to following Jesus will be hated for doing God’s Will.
Are we so accustomed to saying words, and even quoting the Word, like we know we’re supposed to—that we fail to find the fresh application of the Word of God to the dark days ahead.
What is coming is so foreign to us that all our easy answers for easy times, may fail many of us in sudden hard times.
For many centuries the church withheld the Bible from the common people. When they lost that grip of control, the Reformation transformed the people and transformed the world—because they read God’s Word for themselves.
Today the church has withheld from the people the hard parts of the Christian life, presented and promised throughout the Bible.
Persecution is not popular.
We can no longer expect a pass.
We will see the only path to power.
We will be driven to the Word when the rest is burned away.
If American Patriots held the same reservations we have today about acting on the second amendment, before they had the second amendment, we would not have The United States of America.
And, our universal hesitation to actually use the second amendment as intended, will cost us The United States of America today.
We now have the wayward government for which they provided us the second amendment, and we have no intentions, or even know how, to use it to stop the government.
And, we now have no leader ready to risk all for the cause—or do we?
Time is short—time is running out—‘too soon to act’ is turning into ‘too late to act.’
I’m posting a couple texts I recently sent to a customer of mine—a very successful black businessman who claims ‘pro-life,’ ‘christian,’ vehemently anti-Trump, democrat voter.
Interactions with individuals I know personally force me to articulate my positions as clearly as possible, to everyone.
January 6 has come and gone, and January 20, 2021 is here, but the issues before us are not behind us.

“Personal intellectual integrity behooves you to openly and honestly listen to the other side in the vital matters of this divided country—not just hear what your side says what the other side is saying.
I wrote that as I listen to the closing minutes of ‘SANDY RIOS IN THE MORNING’ today on afr (89.9fm-Waco, TX afr.net).
I thought of you—how you would benefit listening to it later.

I share this with no animosity toward you.
Yes, I am angry at the forces working to destroy America by taking over the media to brainwash the people and shut down alternate outlets.

I understand how impossible it may seem for you to consider any other way of thinking.
If you never change, I get it.
But you aren’t stuck, like a slave to what you’ve been fed—like my Jewish widow customer stuck with ‘tradition’ (the most treasured word for Jews, like the words ‘racist’ and ‘oppressed’* for blacks).

I don’t ever want you to have to say, ‘I wish Larry hadn’t given up trying to persuade me.’

“Truth is—your sources that completely shape your thinking—and your words—have clearly censored the rest of the story, the truth, from you.
Just a couple examples from yesterday—antifa sent instructions to their people to infiltrate the Trump rally with violence, so Trump and his supporters would be blamed.
It worked.
Those instructions were quickly removed by facebook and twitter, along with Trump’s final words to the crowd yesterday, so you would not know.
The media and the rest of the left have done a perfect job of convincing you that there is only one way to look at everything that is happening—including sweeping the voter fraud facts into the trash.
My words to you here are not just more ongoing debate, to trigger another retort, and another, from you.
Your words reveal your deep-seated vitriol that leaves no room to hear anything else.

Today’s ‘SANDY RIOS IN THE MORNING’ on afr.net gives a perspective that you can listen to.
– – –
Consider the benefit to you, to hear directly from my sources of information and spiritual understanding, rather than other sources telling you what to think about me.
I can retain a bit of respect for you, if you will respect me enough to listen to afr.
Start with Sandy Rios today.
I suggest the following (weekdays on 89.9fm, afr.net):
+7am Sandy Rios
+12pm E W Jackson (black guy)
+1pm Bryan Fischer
+2pm Will and Meeke Addison (black couple)
+5pm Abraham Hamilton III (dynamic black guy)
+10pm Frank Gaffney
Everyone on afr gives a solid, Biblical perspective with the news.
Christians need this now!
You need this now!”
Jesus’ parable still holds true today, in countless families and individuals.
Some people get to experience the joyful ending, with the words,
“This, my son, was lost and is found—was dead and is alive.”
However, we have proudly added an atrocious distortion, publicly—
“Rejoice with me, for this, my son, was alive, and is now dead—was created, and is now destroyed.”
So sad, so wicked, so many people in places of prominence, actually take pride in rejoicing over the death of our babies who were alive, and are now dead.
With no remorse—with no apology—with no satisfaction—with never enough—with insatiable, religious fervor demanding more and more of the same.
We forget the ending—BUT GOD . . . !
I just read a remembrance article by George Faithful from January 27, 2015.
I typed in “their blood cries out from the ground” and clicked on OUPblog.
Divine Pray(ers)—Heavenly Helpers—Infinite Intercession
“I will plead with the Father, and He will send you a helper.”—–Jesus
“The Holy Spirit makes intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered.”
“The Father Himself loves you—no good thing will He withhold from those who walk uprightly.”
“I prayed for you, that your faith does not fail.”—–Jesus
“I pray that they may be as one, like you and I, Father, are one.”—–Jesus
Prayer Warriors make a profound difference because they have a profound connection with the heart of God and with the hand of God.
“Strive together with me in your prayers to God for me.”
“Pray for those believers in prison as though you were in prison with them.”
“Pray for me, that I might open my mouth boldly, to make known the mystery of God.”
“The effectual, fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth (accomplishes) much.”
The weary ones had rest, the sad had joy that day,
-And wondered how?
A ploughman, singing at his work, had prayed,
-“God, help them now.”
Away in foreign lands they wondered how
-Their simple words had power.
At home the Christians, two or three
-Had met to pray an hour.
Yes, we are always wondering, wondering how?
-Because we do not see
Someone, perhaps unknown and far away
-On bended knee.
