WASHINGTON — Federal prosecutors are seeking to bring a new indictment against President Joe Biden’s son Hunter by the end of September, according to court documents filed Wednesday.

Mark 8:34-38 ESV


The gospel message which is permeating the American church at large today is not this gospel that Jesus taught, and it is not the gospel that the NT apostles taught, but it is a man-created gospel message intended to tickle itching ears, and to sooth guilty minds and hearts, and to appease human flesh. But it is a trap! And it is a deception (a lie). And if you fall into that trap you will not have salvation from sin, and you will not inherit eternal life with God, for you don’t really believe in God but in a lie of Satan.

This lie of Satan has some of the appearance of the true gospel, but it is a half-truth (lie) gospel message intended to deceive naïve minds and those trapped in sin who are looking for an easy way out of having to spend eternity in hell while they continue to live in deliberate and habitual sin against the Lord. But it is a lie! It is a trap! And if you fall into it, you will die in your sins. You will not have heaven as your eternal destiny regardless of what other humans are telling you. Read the Scriptures in their context!

So, what do I mean by a “Half-truth gospel”? I mean that what so many are teaching as the gospel today is being parceled out in segments, but not in whole, for they are removing key Scriptures from their original context, and they are twisting them to make them say what the Scriptures do not teach, in whole. So, let me give you some examples of what I mean:

John 10:28-30 is being taught absent of John 10:27 which is where we learn who these promises apply to, which is critical to us being able to apply them to our lives, or not. For it isn’t those who merely make a profession of faith in Jesus Christ who are promised eternal life with God, but it is those who are listening to Jesus, who are heeding his counsel, and who are walking in obedience to him in following him in his ways who have this promise and this hope of salvation from sin and eternal life with God.

And Ephesians 2:8-9 is being taught with the message that no works are required of us at all, and that they play no part in our salvation. But this is absent of Ephesians 2:10 which teaches us that we are God’s workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works which God prepared in advance that we should walk in them, making them our practice. And this is absent of the whole context of Ephesians which teaches us that we must forsake our former lives of sin and now we must live holy lives or we will not inherit eternal life with God (see Ephesians 4:17-32; Ephesians 5:3-6).

And Romans 6:23 is being taught absent of the entire book of Romans, especially absent the whole of chapters 6 and 8, as though our salvation from sin is just handed to us on a silver platter and that nothing is required of us other than some obscure belief in Christ which is rarely biblically defined. The same with John 3:16, which is not usually taught in the context of an ongoing continuous walk of faith and which is not usually taught in the whole of John 3. And the same is being done with Romans 10:9-10, etc.

So, what many are doing is that they are pulling these Scriptures out of their context and they are building their doctrines of salvation around them, but half-truths are lies if they are deliberate half-truths with the intention to deceive and to lead people astray, which these are. Now I am not saying that everyone who teaches these half-truths is a liar and a deceiver. Some are just the deceived who don’t know they are believing lies. But many know it is a lie but they hang on to it because the lie appeases their flesh.

And many of these lies are being spread via social media memes and short devotionals and short videos and via preachers’ sermons and “Christian” authors’ books, and via movies and cartoons and TV dramas which are loosely about the Bible and the character of God, of Christ, and via “Christian” artists and their music lyrics, etc. And since we live in a “fast-food” society, where most people, it seems, want things short and quick and easy, the masses are falling for these clever lies being told by people in their trickery and cunning and craftiness and in their deceitful scheming.

So, what is the truth? Let’s go back to this passage in Mark 8 and to Jesus’ words. For he said that to come after him we must deny self (reject the self-life), and we must take up our cross (daily – Luke 9:23-26), i.e. we must die daily to sin and to self, and we must follow (obey) him. And here I will paraphrase Jesus’ words: For whoever holds on to his old life of living in sin and for self will lose it for eternity. But whoever denies self, dies daily to sin and to self, and who follows Jesus in obedience, for his sake, and for the sake of the gospel, that person will have salvation and eternal life with God.

This is the essence of the message of the gospel of our salvation and the purpose for why Jesus died on that cross. For he died that we might die to sin and live to righteousness, and that we might live for him and no longer for self. And he shed his blood for us to buy us back for God (to redeem us) out of our lives of living in sin and for self so that we will now honor God with our bodies. And he was crucified that we might be crucified with him in death to sin and be raised with him to walk in newness of life in him, no longer as slaves to sin, but now as slaves to God and to his righteousness.

[1 Peter 2:24; 2 Corinthians 5:15; 1 Corinthians 6:19-20; Romans 6:1-23]

My Sheep

An Original Work / June 24, 2012
Based off John 10:1-18 NIV

My sheep hear me. They know me.
They listen to my voice and obey.
I call them and lead them.
They know my voice, so they follow me.
They will never follow strangers.
They will run away from them.
The voice of a stranger they know not;
They do not follow him.

So, I tell you the truth that
I am the gate, so you enter in.
Whoever does enter
Will find forgiveness and will be saved.
Nonetheless whoever enters
Not by the gate; other way,
He is the thief and a robber.
Listen not, the sheep to him.

Oh, I am the Good Shepherd,
Who laid his own life down for the sheep.
I know them. They know me.
They will live with me eternally.
The thief only comes to steal and
Kill and to destroy the church.
I have come to give you life that
You may have it to the full…

They know my voice, so they follow me.

“The former vice president will say that there’s a fundamental divide between … limited government conservatism and populism, and that divide is unbridgeable,” said a Pence aide, who spoke on the condition of anonymity to preview the speech for reporters. “Populism and liberalism are on the same road to ruin.”

• Pence will argue that government intervention in free markets, refusing to address Social Security and Medicare spending and retreating on foreign policy are anathema to the Republican Party.

[I think this really does speak to the divide within the GOP. To win the White House, the GOP really needs both sides, but at this point I don't see any candidate doing that successfully. Trump did in 2016, but he's clearly picked one lane to focus on [at least as far as his messaging goes; I doubt he has any policy plans to regulate the banks or big business in order to help the common man], and Pence is making the case for the other.]

“Why would you attack populism if you’re trying to be the Republican nominee?” Gingrich said in an interview. “I mean, it’s now the base of the party.”

A Pew Research Center project that used polling to analyze Republicans found in 2021 that about 23 percent of Republicans belong to the “Populist Right.” Such Republicans “are deeply conservative and reliably vote Republican” but also “hold hard-line immigration views” as well as economic views [that are more populist than corporate]

“They are the sole Republican-oriented group in which majorities say the economic system in the country unfairly favors powerful interests, that businesses in this country make too much profit and that taxes on household income over $400,000 should be raised,” Pew wrote in the report.

a younger generation of [Republican] lawmakers has embraced policies such as sick leave for rail workers, compensation caps for banking executives and refusing to cut Social Security and Medicare — policies on which they have at least some common ground with Democrats.

Greetings!

So I feel that this is clearly prophecy coming to pass right before our eyes. As one of my favorite youtubers puts it, prophecy unravels like a scroll, it isnt opened like a book. I dont see many people talking about this, which raises my internal alarms even more. So what do yall think, is the Euphrates drying up and prophecy being fulfilled, or something else?

Rev 16:12 And the sixth angel poured out his vial upon the great river Euphrates; and the water thereof was dried up, that the way of the kings of the east might be prepared.

And then throw back to this vid, because I always get the song in my head when I start thinking about the Euphrates...

Apparently this guy was arrested with criminal charges for "conducting a manifestly unsafe voyage". Dude was literally trying to marathon across the Atlantic and run to London. Criminal charges seem kind of harsh to me though...

Does idiot's spirit remain idiot after he died?
He was an idiot maybe due to malfunction of his brain.
After he died, is his spirit an idiot spirit too?
How will God judge his deed?

Matthew 16:27–28​

27 For the Son of Man is going to come with his angels in the glory of his Father, and then he will repay each person according to what he has done.

Roman 2:6 God “will repay each person according to what they have done.”

Biden staffers met with Special Counsel Jack Smith’s aides before Trump indictment​

Aug. 26, 2023

The White House counsel’s office met with a top aide to Special Counsel Jack Smith just weeks before he brought charges against former President Trump for allegedly mishandling classified documents — raising serious concerns about coordinated legal efforts aimed at President Biden’s likely opponent in 2024.

Jay Bratt, who joined the special counsel team in November 2022, shortly after it was formed, took a meeting in the White House on March 31, 2023, with Caroline Saba, deputy chief of staff for the White House counsel’s office, White House visitor logs show.

They were joined in the 10 a.m. meeting by Danielle Ray, an FBI agent in the Washington field office.

Nine weeks later, Trump was indicted by Smith’s office on June 8, 2023.

Bratt, 63, also met with Saba at the White House in November 2021, when Trump was mired in negotiations with the National Archives, who were demanding the return of presidential records from his Mar-a-Lago estate before a formal investigation had not yet been opened.

Above are some images of what I mean. Some are immense areas showing immense forces must have been in play. I just don't see how a flood could do this. But what about Continental Drift? This seems to have happened after the Tower of Babel though it's strange it's not even mentioned in the Bible. You'd think this would have monumental impact on people's lives as it would be like living under a never ending earthquake!

House investigators issued six subpoenas Tuesday seeking information about the government’s role in allegedly obstructing a criminal probe into Hunter Biden over hundreds of thousands of dollars in unpaid taxes and lying on a gun background check form.

The subpoenas seek “all documents and communications” related to the FBI tipping off the Secret Service and the Biden presidential transition team about an interview the IRS and FBI planned to conduct with Hunter Biden in December 2020.

“Investigators were never able to interview Hunter Biden during the criminal investigation because Secret Service headquarters and the Biden transition team were tipped off about the planned interview,” said House Oversight and Accountability Committee Chairman James Comer, who issued the subpoenas.

Something I discovered the other day was that the word "unicorn" appears in the KJV a total of 9 times!
Interestingly enough, other versions like the ESV translate it to a young ox.

What do yall think about this?

Every day I feel general abdominal discomfort. The only foods I can eat are macaroni and sweet potatoes. It is not severe pain, but always there. I keep thinking the feeling will never end until the problem is diagnosed but I need to be healthy again to get an endoscopy (the test that would diagnose it). So I am in a Catch-22 situation, based on what my sister, an oncologist, texted my mom, who I live with. I have no known pre-existing GI tract disorders or food allergies and Celiac disease already has been ruled out by a blood test. The next time slot available to get an endoscopy is in November, which is too late for me. I feel like nothing will change until after I am diagnosed because this has been going on for weeks. Until I feel normal again, my mom will not call the hospital to ask about a cancellation before the November date because in my current medical state, there is no way I can drink a full gallon of the colonoscopy prep laxative, a disgusting powder called GoLytely, for eight hours. And the longer she puts that off, the less likely there is to be a cancellation, I assume. Please pray for both my healing and the ability to get an earlier endoscopy.

I need to request prayer because the state I am living in gave me ptsd and I am bullied extremely bad here. The people are not kind I just want to move out so bad.

For decades, runaway Medicare spending was the story of the federal budget. Now, flat Medicare spending might be a bigger one.

The reason for the per-person slowdown is a bit of a mystery. Scholars have been arguing about it for years, but no one seems sure enough to confidently predict whether it is likely to stick around for much longer.

Click to expand...

Some of the reductions are easy to explain. Congress changed Medicare policy. The biggest such shift came with the Affordable Care Act in 2010, which reduced Medicare’s payments to hospitals and to health insurers that offered private Medicare Advantage plans. Congress also cut Medicare payments as part of a budget deal in 2011.

But most of the savings can’t be attributed to any obvious policy shift. In a recent letter to the Senate Budget Committee, economists at the Congressional Budget Office described the huge reductions in its Medicare forecasts between 2010 and 2020. Most of those reductions came from a category the budget office calls “technical adjustments,” which it uses to describe changes to public health and the practice of medicine itself.

Surely the Lord GOD does nothing without revealing His plan to His servants the prophets. ~ Amos 3:7

Now some will say that this was only in reference to the Old Covenant, but even in the book of Acts we see prophets, namely Agabus, prophecying about coming events. So my question to you who believe that prophecy is still a thing, or can be anyway.

Who are the prophets we should be listening to now?

There are SO MANY who are fake. So many who have labelled themselves prophets without any actual anointing. But certainly there are some with legitimate callings and proven words.

KEY POINTS:

Corporate tax revenue is shattering records under Republican tax reform.

• Corporate tax revenue is coming in 22 percent higher than last year’s record level, according to the CBO’s most recent monthly budget review.
• Corporate tax revenue is set to hit a new record of $454 billion. CBO had predicted in June 2017 that corporate tax revenue would only hit $389 billion in 2022.
• As a share of GDP, corporate tax revenue is on track to reach its highest level since 2015 (1.9 percent of GDP).

Overall tax revenue is also strong, including individual, payroll, and other taxes.

• Individual income tax receipts reached an all-time high of $2.04 trillion in FY2021. Receipts are already coming in 36 percent higher in FY2022.
• Total federal tax collections, including payroll and other taxes, are on track to reach $5.04 trillion in FY22, or 21.0 percent of GDP. This would be a new all-time high in both cases.

Anyone here involved with the Charismatic Catholic Renewal movement? I am definitely interested in the gifts of the Holy Spirit.

I'm sure this has been spoken of before, so don't be too mean to me if so.

I'm reading through Revelation and in Chapter 18 it speaks of Babylon the great being completely destroyed in one hour, consumed by fire. The devastation so dramatic that the Lord even tells His people to come out of her so they do not catch His judgement with the lawless.

I think (a lot!) and something came to mind, that what are the chances this is referring to perhaps a nuclear weapon?

In the previous chapter, Babylon the Great is described as an immoral woman who is hated passionately by the beast and ten horns. And cities are so massive now that it almost seems impossible for an entire city to be destroyed, especially a large and powerful one, in one hour.

Now granted, one hour might not mean a literal hour, but rather a short space of time. I'll acknowledge that, but it seems to be such a sudden event by the mourning that happens over it, and the "smoke and fire" that are reminders of her past immoralities.

Hi All. I hope I'm in the right place for this. I became friends with a co-worker who started working with me a few months ago. We would walk at the park and chit-chat, had dinner a couple of times. We were building a friendship until she confided in me that she is a Medium. I have since pulled away from the friendship and stopped hanging out with her but how do I handle working with her? It really bothers me and I don't want to be around her at all knowing that she consults and talks to the dead. Anyone ever face anything like this? What did you do?

The senator said Democrats have signaled they’re not interested in bringing back mask rules, so “we’re going to hold them to their word.”

“We tried mask mandates once in this country. They failed to control the spread of respiratory viruses, violated basic bodily freedom and set our fellow citizens against one another,” Mr. Vance, a Republican, said. “This legislation will ensure that no federal bureaucracy, no commercial airline and no public school can impose the misguided policies of the past.”
