I am referring to the nasty, vulgar story spread on X and other platforms that JD Vance had....relations with his couch. Specific page numbers from his book were given as a source citation, but when checked, nothing of the kind was there.

These kinds of lies, while titillating, should not be promulgated when actual truths should be sufficient to discourage voting for him.

I don’t know if anybody here has heard about the wildfire burning in Northern California but it’s become the largest arson fire in state history.

I have an app on my phone that alerts me to all the evacuation notices law enforcement are issuing. This thing is in four counties now, and one area I noticed they were issuing evac orders for was Manton, CA where I happen to know is the OCA Monastery of Saint John of San Francisco, and I did confirm that their location is under an evacuation order.

I thought you guys might want to know about that so we could all pray for everyone’s safety and protection and hope the monastery itself is also spared.

I’ve already seen God spare one Christian site from this fire and I believe if it’s his will he’d do the same for this one.

Here’s a link to the monastery website: https://monasteryofstjohn.org/

God bless you all.

Pennsylvania presidential election results could again take days to count​

Republicans in the state Senate refused to change the law and allow mail-in votes to be counted ahead of Election Day, despite widespread calls for change.

When the polls closed on election night in 2020, President Donald Trump appeared to be winning Pennsylvania. But over the next several days, as officials counted mail-in ballots, his lead shrunk and then disappeared. By Saturday, Joe Biden was the clear winner of Pennsylvania — and, with it, the presidency.

The protracted counting process left a days-long vacuum that Trumpfilled with demands to stop counting the ballots while he was still ahead, declaring victory in Pennsylvania and building the false narrative that the mail-in votes were fraudulent. It became a core part of the false narrative that helped propel Trump’s “Stop the Steal” crusade and spurred election denialism among his allies and supporters that has continued to this day.

The delay was caused by a quirk of Pennsylvania’s election law, which forbids the opening of mail-in ballots until 7 a.m. on the day of the election. The narrow Election Day vote margins in 2020 coupled with the unprecedented number of people voting by mail because of the pandemic created a massive backlog and left election officials racing to finish the count.

[While the pandemic is not significantly at play, this means it is] likely to again take several days to announce this year’s winner, alarming state election officials who worry the delay will cause confusion, deteriorate trust in the process and make election workers targets for harassment.

One might well ask:

Are the Pennsylvania Republican legislators regretting their archaic decision not to allow county election offices to start counting mail in ballots prior to election day?

But since the RNC strategy is election lawfare and confusion, the answer turns out to be no.

Jeremiah 22:15b-16 (NASB20)
……………………………..Did your father not eat and drink And do justice and righteousness? Then it was well for him.
“He pled the cause of the afflicted and the poor, Then it was well. Is that not what it means to know Me?” Declares the LORD.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

What is God putting forth that it means to know Him..?

God puts forth that doing justice and righteousness is that what it means to know Him…. In other words, to the degree one does justice and righteousness to that degree can it be said that that one knows God…. For in the doing of justice and righteousness does God reveal Himself to the soul….

For all believers that have a right heart after God want to know Him…. This desire is fulfilled according to that souls willingness to do justice and righteousness…. For God waits in righteousness to bless that soul that is willing to walk in justice and righteousness….. For God has called all out of the sin and darkness of this world, it is the willingness to come out that is the dividing factor as to how much of Him does one know….

For in the willingness to do justice and righteousness does the soul receive all that God is, for it is as scripture says ‘His pleasure to give the kingdom’…. This kingdom that He gives is hidden in the doing of justice and righteousness…

For the soul that is willing to enter into the kingdom of justice and righteousness will be a witness unto themselves that they indeed have entered into His kingdom….

Oh to the experiencing of the entering into His kingdom may we all be blessed….




Unto Him be all things, a fellow follower of His, Not me

The Lord, Jesus Christ, proclaimed that the truth would set you free. In declaring Himself as the Truth of God, He also referred to the universal nature of truth, as all truth originates from God. However, we encounter a challenge here: what we often label as truth can be mere opinion, propaganda, or even falsehood. The question then arises: how do we distinguish the truth amidst a thicket of opinions, propaganda, and falsehoods?

And you shall know the truth: and the truth shall make you free.
(John 8:32 DRB)

After what has been seen of Kamala Harris' performance the last 4 years; the Democratic party is backing her and the media is pushing her through?
DEMOCRATS PLEASE WAKE UP! CALL your STATE REPRESENTATIVE and tell them to PICK SOMEONE ELSE! 4 more years of Obama and the agenda will end it for OUR ECONOMY AND THEREFORE the common folk and our Country. GOD HAS A BETTER PLAN for our country and it ain't her! We have not been set us up as a Country by HIM to be brought down like this! It is time to get up and make sure we as a people are heard! They have force fed us candidates for way to long! Use the system people. It starts in our Towns, cities and states. Make a loud cry and don't stop. If one doesn't want Trump, then all this applies too!
So wake up Republicans also! It can not be a Government for the PEOPLE IF we ARE NOT DOING ALL that is availed to us through the system.

If an actress is playing Kamala Harris , can she still run for President and even become the President?

1 Kings 3:14
So if you walk in My ways and keep My statutes and commandments, just as your father David did, I will prolong your days."

In this passage, God is speaking to Solomon, the son of King David. God promises Solomon wisdom, understanding, and long life if he follows His ways and obeys His commandments, just as his father David did 1. It’s a beautiful reminder of the importance of living righteously.

1. Wisdom and Guidance: Just as God granted Solomon wisdom, we can seek divine wisdom through prayer, meditation, and studying Scripture. When faced with decisions or challenges, we can ask for guidance and discernment.
2. Obedience and Blessings: The promise of a long life was conditional on Solomon’s obedience to God’s commandments. Similarly, our obedience to God’s principles leads to blessings and favor. Living according to God’s ways brings fulfillment and purpose.
3. Legacy: Solomon’s father, David, set an example of faithfulness. Our actions impact future generations. By following God’s ways, we leave a positive legacy for our children and others.

Remember that while the specific context of Solomon’s reign differs from ours, the underlying principles—wisdom, obedience, and legacy—remain applicable.

A highlight from Trump’s speach:

"I don't care how, but you have to get out and vote and again," he added. "Christians, get out and vote just this time. You won't have to do it anymore. Four more years, you know what? It will be fixed. It will be fine. You won't have to vote anymore, my beautiful Christians."

“Christians, get out and vote!” yelled Trump. “Just this time. You won’t have to do it anymore. Four more years. You know what? It’ll be fixed! It’ll be fine! You won’t have to vote anymore, my beautiful Christians. I love you, Christians!” He added, “You gotta get out and vote. In four years, you don’t have to vote again. We’ll have it fixed so good, you’re not gonna have to vote.”

Looks like I won't be watching this Olympics either.

Why did I dream about school setting and I saw a Christian sister I know, she was standing in my way so we discussed a little which I don't remember but remember her last word ‘King’ she said. Briefly, after that, I board a school-bus going to somewhere which I think I know the direction. Then, as the school-Bus was moving we got to a two-way roads and the driver took the right lane which was the wrong way and this time he was speeding and I could feel he was too fast. Then, I started to complain about his speeding but he kept telling me to chill saying he was looking for more people to take. But he didn't see more passenger to take till we landed so fast at the exact same two-way and this time he took the left which was the right way and he was driving normally or fast I can't remember. But is like I got to my destination. Even though I told the driver I would report him to the school authority I don't think I did that?

During the visit of the Isreali Prime Minister pro-Palestinian protestors damaged monuments, burned government property and assaulted police.

Very few were arrested and we don't know what kind of manhunt is going on to find and arrest others involved.

This should be a massive manhunt for people who were involved in this. Anyone who takes down an American flag, burns it and raises another countries flag should be arrested and deported immediately if they are a foreigner. And if an American they should be arrested and charged with the appropriate crimes.

All other criminals involved in criminal activities should be found and charged. In exactly the same manner as those involved in Jan 6 were.

It took 6 days but Obama finally endorsed Harris. I don't think the Obamas liked Harris very much. They wanted someone else. But they finally did in an obviously staged awkward phone call.

I wonder what they are getting in return. Could it be they get their guy in the Vice-President role?

Kinda hilarious...


Basically, Black Lives Matter released some sort of formal statement on the fact that nobody voted for Harris in any primary and the Democrats are hypocrites....saying we aren't a dictatorship...and demanding a snap primary.

Hilarious.

Obviously, nobody should really care what BLM says at this point...they're probably just trying to get some limelight.

However, I 100% understand the sentiment...she's not exactly anyone's 1st or 2nd pick. Despite the media kowtowing and 180 on Harris...I don't know if real enthusiasm can be drummed up.

Regardless....this is pretty funny. A lot of people in this organization stole donations and were convicted of it....so I trust they at least know a con when they see one.

Do you think AI can be used for the Kingdom? I mean, I usually struggled to tell people about Jesus, but the app iEvangelize (https://www.ievangelize.app) made evangelizing easier for me than ever before.

It generated amazing conversation starters, and I used to share the gospel with people easily.
Take a look and tell me what you guys think.

I got to say if presented with an advertised boneless chicken wing, I would assume it did not contain bones.

It angers me but more than anything it makes me sad. I'm sad to see Jesus and the last supper mocked this way.

“I will be going back to Butler, Pennsylvania for a big and beautiful rally, honoring the soul of our beloved firefighting hero, Corey, and those brave patriots injured two weeks ago. What a day it will be — fight, fight fight! Stay tuned for details,” Trump wrote.
Other U.S. leaders could use some of Trump's courage.

I'm not talking about the non-deplorable Magadonians, of which no doubt there are legion, but the ones who do embrace the alt-right, have a problem with Usha Vance because too much the racist and misogynistic garbage they want to throw at Harris applies to the wife of the VP candidate and then some - she is a practicing Hindu as well as a Yale educated lawyer. Her parents are immigrants, similar to Harris'.

Will they embrace this not-one-of-them, will they bite their collective tongues for the meanwhile or will they simply ignore the elephant in the room?

In US politics, conspiracies are rife – and many more emerged in the wake of the attempted assassination of Donald Trump. Tackling them requires us to see conspiracism differently, says researcher Sophia Knight.

Within minutes of Saturday's attempted assassination on former US President Donald Trump, conspiracy theories started to swirl online.Without any evidence, people spread claims that the incident was everything from a hoax to a plot. Swept up in a divisive presidential campaign, online voices spun up explanations to fill in the details of the day's shocking events.

Conspiracy theories are not new in American politics. Adherents of QAnon – a wide-ranging political conspiracy movement – were among those who caused chaos at the Capitol on 6 January 2021, while there are many still invested in conspiracy theories regarding the assassination of former President John F Kennedy more than 60 years ago. From such experiences, we know the division, discord and disintegration of trust they breed can be extremely damaging to a democracy's health.

So, what do we do about this rising tide of conspiracism? Most importantly, the answer is not to just try and prove people wrong. Any attempt to debunk a conspiracy has a good chance of backfiring, playing into established narratives of "the elite" or "deep state" censoring the truth.

Hey there folks, Im Joseph 50ish guy near Glasgow in Scotland.

I became a Christian in 1992 in a charismatic evangelical church in the south of England.

When i moved back to Scotland i found my Christian journey a great deal harder to engage with, and thus over the years ive come and gone from different churches. And am now still in that neverzone.

I work fulltime as a carer for an elderly family member and thus spare time is at a premium.

In the coming days and weeks whilst i get used to this place I may pose some questions that are important to me, and would hope i can become part of this community.

For now thanks for having me and lets see how this part of journey pans out.

Bill Barr complicit in misleading voter fraud statement’s release – watchdog​

The former attorney general Bill Barr was personally involved in a decision to release an unusual and misleading justice department statement on the eve of the 2020 election suggesting there may have been voter fraud in Pennsylvania, according to a new inspector general’s report that was released on Thursday.

The 76-page report from the justice department’s Office of the Inspector General focused on the department’s handling of an investigation into nine military ballots that were found discarded in the trash in Luzerne county, Pennsylvania. Barr briefed Trump on the ballot issue before it was public and the president subsequently disclosed it in a radio interview. David Freed, the US attorney overseeing the matter, also released a statement and letter detailing the investigation.

The announcement was highly charged because it came at a time when Trump was warning the election would be rigged because of mail-in ballots. It was also highly unusual – justice department policy does not allow employees to comment on ongoing investigations before charges are filed, except in limited circumstances.

[Per WaPo: Barr met with Trump before Freed made his statement, according to the report, and told Trump the discarded ballots were votes for him [later it would turn out that 7 of 9 were for Trump, with the other two unknown] — details that had not yet been made public. The next day, Trump repeated that information on a national radio show.]

investigators quickly became aware that evidence might not exist to support criminal charges. The seasonal employee who discarded the ballots appeared to have a mental disability, FBI agents noted on 22 September, and was “remorseful”, “felt horrible” and “never voted/doesn’t vote/didn’t pay attention to it”. The suspect, who was quickly fired, reportedly believed incorrectly the military ballots were fraudulent and discarded them without telling anyone.

Freed and other justice department employees considered releasing a statement in late October 2020 when they decided to close the investigation without charges. The department’s public integrity section had wanted to issue a press release to correct the false public impression about the possibility of fraud, but ultimately the department did not. It was not until 15 January 2021 – well after election day – that the Department of Justice released a statement saying it was closing the investigation.

Barr’s behavior “was certainly not consistent” with [DOJ] guidance, the report said. Barr did not agree to a voluntary interview and the inspector general does not have the power to subpoena testimony from former justice department employees.

Freed, who was the US attorney for the middle district of Pennsylvania at the time, violated justice department policies on not commenting on ongoing investigations and a requirement to consult with the department’s public integrity section before making a statement.

Hello, im sorry if im posting this in the wrong area I'm new a bit confused with the layout.

I recently got diagnosed with a lifelong illness I will always have to take medication for, after being on short term medication I finally got long term medication.

My problem is I've struggled with various types of intrusive thoughts/obsessive compulsive ideas for years now. This was made even worse when someone I know told me something along the lines of ' be careful, if you take X medication you might corrupt your DNA and go to hell, one reason God flooded the world is because nephilim and humans mixed '. I don't know how much truth there is to this and I don't believe that would happen but my obsessive compulsive tendencies don't care, I can't help but worry, so much so I went through a lot of work to get different medication.

Outside of that I have other worries ' it's the mark of the beast ' even though I know it's not, and among other things. I'm not really sure what to do and I can't overcome this fear, everyday I don't start this medication I get sicker eventually I would have to go to the hospital. Its stressful. I've considered getting professional help but I don't feel comfortable going to a doctor and telling them I feel like I have OCD tendencies.

Thank you for your time please pray for me.
