Are they running yet?

Everybody who says they are a Christian is not. We Christians are witnessing now the wheat separated from the chaff. At the right time Jesus will give us our marching orders. He already started our Spiritual warfare. In Bible College my Teacher and Pastor and Th.D. Doctor of Divinity who was a Seminary Graduate asked me, "Are they running yet?"

How can anyone take credit for a quotation? Someone else already said it! Maybe it was said by your mother or father. Jonah re-discovered gravity. A coconut (?) fell on his head when God wilted a tree he was sitting under a tree in Nineveh trying to shade himself.  Have you ever had a touch from God?

Has someone you know asked you if you remember this and that? And you have no idea what they are talking about? And they accuse you of having a bad memory? Well, it probably was not important enough for you to remember. Some memory’s become solid when something else memorial or an event occurs at the same time.

The truth is in Romans 1. If you see anyone committing sin it does not mean you will commit the same sin. When and if you see the same sex sinning as they do that won't cause you to sin or go to hell. If you read Romans 1 you will find that they came out of the closet after Jesus ascended. They did not even talk to him. They have rejected God in nature so God made them gay reprobates!

We have fallen so short of God's intention for marriage. We need to go back to Adam and Eve where the two of them became one flesh. That is marriage. That is it.

Along the same lines their children became one flesh. That is marriage. That is it. It is clear that all the way including the gospels men had multiple wives and women had multiple husbands.

In the gospels Jesus did not condemn the Jewish woman was caught by Jewish men who witnessed her committing the act of adultery with a married man. They went and told Jesus on her.

Likewise the Samaritan woman had multiple husbands and the one she was with she was not married to. The Samaritans did not condemn her. Jesus did not condemn her and filled her with the Holy Spirit.  The problem with the Church is that it is not Biblical and does not practice What Jesus Did and preached. But they ask What Would Jesus Do. They condemn those who are not under condemnation, the Church, the righteous.

What day is the Sabbath? It always falls on a Saturday? Are you right about that? Which calendar do you use? The Gregorian calendar is used in the US and consists of a 365 day year. On leap year it consists of a 366 day year. A day is added every 4 years that changes the days of the week. Saturday and Sunday actually fall on different days on leap year starting then. Over the years that really adds up!

Now the Jewish calendar has a 360 day year with no leap year. You can’t compare the Jewish calendar with the Gregorian calendar of you want to worship on Saturday. It is a different day of the week if you go by the calendars.

However, the Jews could and probably keep track of the Sabbath Day and without a calendar. Under the law they had to keep the Sabbath and keep it holy. They could do no work they could even prepare meals on the Sabbath. They had to prepare their meals to eat the day before the Sabbath.

 So how the Hebrew/Jewish know what day is the Sabbath without a calendar. They counted 6 days after the last Sabbath and they entered the Sabbath rest on the 7^th day, the next day and rested from all of their works. God rested from all of His works on the 7^th day after creation.

Married? Can you prove it?

No one carries around their marriage license to prove they are married. You can make one up. To prove if you are married you have to send for a certified copy of your marriage license. And, you have to make the request in writing addressed, to the right department, to the state you were married in the US. Were their marriages legal in Biblical times?

I just read it. I didn’t write the Bible.

A lot of Christians like Paul said are carnal or babes in Christ. Not even able to handle the milk of the word. They are unskilled in ministering and get frustrated, and defeated by the enemy. The enemy knows the Scripture better than they do but twists the Scriptures to mean something they were not intended to say.

The enemy goes contrary to the word of God and they are fooled into thinking it is good stuff they are hearing or reading. A Pastor told me that rat poison is 99% good and heathy stuff but sure enough it will kill you dead as intended.

They don’t have the spiritual teeth to consume strong meat, digest it, mull it around, and speak with understanding.  Unfortunately some Pastors feel they are not ready for the meat of the God’s word and therefore don’t teach it, and keep them on a milk fed diet.

Learning to be tolerant: You can substitute a woman for man, say a woman and a man, if you like. It makes the story confusing for me adding both genders. Sorry women.

This guy wanted to learn to be tolerant. So he went to a hardware store and bought a ball pin hammer. When he got home he made up a schedule to hit himself in the head with the ball pin hammer, regularly.

After he got out of the hospital he continued try to be tolerant by hitting his head with the ball pin hammer. He drew the attention of the press and soon had a huge following.

Being encouraged, he continued practicing to be tolerant by hitting himself on the head with his ball pin hammer.

Jesus and His disciples was a bunch of homeless guys. Jesus sent them out 2 by 2 at least 82. They did not carry signs that said they would work for food. They just went into communities, their needs were supplied including housing, and then they left. They taught, healed, and even the demons were subject to them. Jesus said, “Yeah! And I even saw Satan fall from the sky!”

The Chaff is insane!

The Chaff has gone openly apostate, reprobate, and blasphemous. The Chaff boldly proclaims it and has even taken over some denominations. They feel no shame and no regrets as they recruit others knowing they are worthy of death. (Romans 1)

They are anti-Israel, anti-Church, anti-Christian, anti-Christ’s. They are pro-gay, pro-terrorist Islam, pro-kill, steal, and destroy, and have an agenda against the Church.

And who is the head of the Church? Jesus Christ. Being God haters, reprobates can’t help but do what they do. However, he gates of hell never will prevail against the Church! We grow in numbers under persecution. People realize what is going on and who the real enemy of their soul is.

Not again!

Why do some people want to slam the door in the Church face? The Church is people! The Church is not a building where people hide, and hide their faith, afraid to go outside, and face the real world. God has opened the door to us through social media. Only the chosen frozen can speak in Church. Here, everybody can have their say.

I have learned a lot from fellow Christians and believers of different faiths. We have radicals in all faiths that don’t want the word spread. It is arrogant to think that God only speaks to some people. We live in dangerous times. The Church is underground and invisible. On Social Media we are taking a risk sharing our common faith.

I feel that because of Social Media a Christian and other faiths has the opportunity to share. Not only that, we are able to learn from each other, we are able to improve our teaching skills, and we are able to improve our evangelist skills.

That makes it easier to share with strangers where ever you go. We equip ourselves by being openly challenged. We learn from others from around the world. Our Churches are not equipped for teaching and equipping the saints for ministry. Do you have all 5 ministry gifts from Ephesians 4:11 operating in your Church? No. Bible College and Seminary equip you for the work of the ministry

Bible College and Seminary graduates freely give on social media. They do not ask for money. They do not have many opportunities to share in the local Church.

You do not have to respond to our Christian posts. But it is better than what many leaders in your local congregations instruct their members to do. That is why we flock to social media.

A few members will attend Bible Study on Wednesday. A few more will attend Sunday school on Sunday morning. A few may participate in the weekly prayer meetings. Therefore, Church members are ill equipped to discuss the Bible outside of the confines of their Church. They don't know how to evangelize. They feel rejected and condemned when they try to and do so, and rightly so. So there leaders tell them to slam the door in our faces when we only want to have Bible study.

With Social Media we freely discuss the Bible, and learn, and share with anyone. Even with people who claimed to be not of the Christian faith. I find so many of them I really enjoy fellowship with and them with me. It is no way else possible for we to meet.

That's just it. Our mistakes lead to success and major breakthroughs. David mistakes led to Solomon, his brother Nathan, Joseph, Mary and Jesus Christ. The mistake of killing Jesus made a way for salvation.

You have to conclude that mistakes are a good and necessary thing. A part of Gods purpose in our lives. We can't ultimately know our purpose and don't need to.

A young upstart asked a pastor, do you know about the rich young ruler? The pastor said, sort of.  Well, Jesus told him to sell everything, give it to the poor, and then follow me. The pastor was shocked and said, they won’t be able to pay me tithes and offerings!

"Who"

Punk'n Head or Sweet Patootee Pie

I am a Sweet Patootee Pie guy. That's just me. Some people like Punk'n Head Pie.

Around Thanksgiving time? that is the season for both pies however the season lasts only weeks. Then the Punk'n Head and Sweet Patootee Pie season will be over until next year. Nobody will want to eat any more.

I was sitting in the parking lot puffing on my second hand smoke cancer stick when all of a sudden "Who" showed up. She went inside. When I finished I went inside also, and "Who" was there! I walked up to her and said, "Punk'n !" I told "Who" I what I meant to call her was Sweet Potato.

Earlier in the day, while eating a slice of store bought Sweet Potato Pie, "Who" described how she just made a Sweet Potato Pie from scratch. "Who" tried to explain to me how she made it. But she can't even give instructions on where to catch the bus right outside the door.

None-the-less I got the picture anyway. After all she was describing cooking. Cooking is a language a man can understand because he listens with not his ears but a man listens with his stomach. And the key to a man’s heart "is" his stomach after all.

I told “Who” if  was my friend she would have called me and have given me a slice of her Sweet Potato Pie! "Who" said she is my friend and she almost ate the whole pie herself in one sitting!

Then "Who" described how she made the Sweet Potato pie with language only my stomach could understand. She speaks with gestures, emotions, and her face that cannot be translated into any known language.

But suddenly, I had to get away from her so I headed for a chair to sit down on. Then she started to talk to two other women who were seated near her. I walked, having to pass her on my way back outside, and I said to her, "I can't stand it anymore. I don't even want to hear you!"

I don't know, maybe I was having a bad hair day.

Okay, now it's time to take it to Church using the word of our sponsor, God:

Some believe you have not been preached to unless they talk about you. Some people only like how their Pastors or denominations talk about them. If another Pastor talks from another denomination talks about them they get very upset. Pastors need Church too but they do not like anyone to talk about them period especially in their own Church. If you do take Pastors to Church you have to leave their Church, and they might have the Deacons escort you out. On one occasion a Deacon peeked out the door and said they will be praying for me.

I have since learned to leave and not return after I preached to a Pastor during service. I can see the disdain in their eyes. Like they were asking, “Who do I think I am? Sometimes I feel like Jesus. The religious leaders always asked Jesus, “Who do you think you are!” When Jesus told them they picked up stones to kill Jesus but it was not His time to die yet. So He just passed through them, ignoring them, and went on His way.

They are above being talked about and think what they say and do is perfect and right. Well there is Church politics also. My buddy in Bible College who Pastors his own Church after he graduated told me, “No Poly No Ticky. “ I understand politics but I never play politics not in Church, not even on the job. I leave politics to the professionals. 

Donald who is running for President never even held a political office. He is not a politician. Politicians are going to eat him for lunch. He takes pride in his hair but it is starting to look tacky. Even his Barber won’t be able to save his hair.

A lot of Pastors ask God for money, but they know God does not have any money, so they expect anybody and everybody to give them some money.  And a lot of people give them a lot of money which they squander away. Hopefully they won’t end up eating pig slop.

This guy had to pay taxes. Jesus did have any money but told him to go fishing and he caught a fish that swallowed one of Caesars coins. Jesus said now, give Caesar his own coin. After all it was Caesars coin to begin with and he wants it back!  There is something about fishing and fish. He told Peter to fish on the other side of his boat and Peter caught a lot of fish. Jesus did not give either of them money and neither did anyone else. Instead, Jesus made a way to get some from their own efforts.

I was shocked and stunned to learn from the Bible College I graduated from that I have a public ministry like Jesus Christ.  That explains why people treat me the way they do. And many want a hand out but don’t want to give me anything in return. They may offer me lip service and say that they want to but it is not all bad. Sometimes I feel like Jesus because some ask me for something like I have too. I’m really trying not to because I am not really Jesus.

Rosy Greer, an ex-football player from the LA Rams, sang this song , “You are probably the only Jesus some will ever see.” Selah

Sometimes people ask me sarcastically, “Do I have my own Church? I say to them, "I don’t want to take your money to build me a Church that I will own lock stock and barrel! “And they walk away with their heads bowed.

Never mind that I am a Bible College graduate, a C.P.E. certified Chaplain/Pastor with a license from the State of California, and a Biblical author of 14 free books, I have an audience over 70,000 around the world. I minister also from the privacy of my own home. I have been in Public Ministry in many states and the Bahamas. I enjoy and I’m not afraid to use public transportation. People don’t have to make an appointment to talk to me. We just talk! I am very knowledgeable and I can be very entertaining. I can be a talking Charlie Chaplin.

I have not cut my hair in over a month. My beard is long as it is the only place it will grow with substance. I bought some clippers to do my own hair because I’m "Barber Phobic." My neighbor looked at me through his Barber eyes and asked me if I wanted a haircut. I tried to hide my fear but I was not successful in hiding my fear because I felt my eyes get big.

The reason I fear Barber's is because they look at my hair and beard and see what they want to do it. A Barber does not want to cut my hair the way I want my hair to be cut. Now that's Church.

It does not matter what I say they are going to almost cut my hair all off and trim my beard a certain way. I call this the Church look.

Barbers hold a certain position in the Church like gangs. Gangs are have methods of identifying each other like Church member and a Barbers inforce the Church look.

A man can't attend Church services without a Church haircut, eventually. Some Church building Pastors invite people to come as they are. But the enforcers in the Church will look at men with disdain or with disapproval if they don't retain or adopt the Church look.

I have personally witnessed stares and pointy fingers at me, because my hair grew longer, and I did not fit the Church norm anymore.

I have seen men in Church growing their hair and beard longer only to have to cut it off. I have seen Church guys who have a recent hair cut look at me as if I had a contagious disease or embarrassed because they had to.

They look so sad. Perhaps I'm a bad influence or they think I am a "Rebel without a Cause.” Steve McQueen stared in this movie. He was an American idol at the time). However I do have a cause, “Because I want to!” The 70’s was the long hair revolution. We had products for the first time so even Black people could grow their hair long. We had Afro’s. The feeling is worse for a homeless guy trying to attend a Church service.

Every man in now Church has to have one or the other three haircuts. a) A man has to have short hair and be clean shaven, b) A man has to have a bald head with a finely trimmed beard or clean shaven, or c) A man can have hair but not too long with a finely trimmed beard or clean shaven. 

Boy, now that I have let my hair go I get some stares from Church people sometimes. Did Pastors preach against long hair?

Still, some approve of my disguised look. But I have always been a non-conformist, way out of the box, and my mother said I was eccentric. I always thought that was a good thing. Some people think it is not. They are followers and in the box. No I am not rich but many people think I am, I am just an artist. Make no mistake about it. Besides, do followers consider me not part of the Church because of the way I look, think, talk and dress? Maybe I should where a robe and grow hair long like some pictures of Jesus. Naw. I really would not fit in. Well, they like White guys with the Jesus hair cut in the pictures. I think yipe myself when I see one walking down the street smiling! 

Anyways, and now the exciting conclusion of  “Punk'n Head or Sweet Patootee Pie!”

She asked me if I can cook but she described baking an apple pie with gestures also. "Who" said take some apples and add this and add that and a crust and there you have it. And she seriously thought I now can bake an apple pie. "Who” is so special.

I told her that my sisters did not understand what my Dad said. They called it “Dad Speak.” Even his brother my namesake, Winston from Arkansas, did not understand what my Dad said. But I understood him perfectly. Now at 62 years old you can say I have developed my own “Dad Speak.” Well, “Who” has “Her Own Speak” which I can understand some of.  

She talked about the first man and what men can do, even the first woman in brief.

In summary I said, God took some things out of the first man and put them into a woman so men would love women. And a man does not want to do those things. When a woman cooks for a man she puts love into it which a man cannot do.

How did Noah finance the building of the ARK?

How did Noah finance the building of the ARK?

With student loans, a 2nd and 3rd mortgage on his house, several unsecured credit cards, and bank loans. He also never paid state or federal taxes, and he borrowed money from so called friends and acquaintances. The usury they charge Noah did not matter to him because Noah was called of God to build the ARK. 

After Noah loaded up the ARK such as should be saved: suddenly the door of ARK slammed shut. And the flood waters from the upper firmament starting to pour down, surprising all the inhabitants of the earth, who did not heed Noah's warning of God's judgement to come. God does not do anything until people are warned from Prophets and Priests that God actually tells them what to say.    

The flood waters came engulfing the earth and drowning all of its inhabitants except those on the ARK. God was angry and decided to start all over again.

Skeptics even unto today still say God could not store all the the animals on His Ark. They discard natural extinction, and believe in breading, evolution, and cloning today. If it is true that did not occur in Noah's day so fewer animal were loaded on the ARK, male and female so they could reproduce in kind. 

Sometime after Noah was floating on the ARK he tossed allhis I.O.U's overboard. There was no one to pay back!

And Noah became debt free...

SHORT's and Sweets

I started writing again but instead of including my SHORTS in one book I've combined them by title. So far, in December I've posted, "Take it to Church." In January I have posted, "ME 1 of 6."

By the way this is a picture of one of my beautiful Oakland, CA girlfriends. Some guy complained if you copy any picture from the internet you are stealing. 

They closed the post before I could ask them, "Why do PC's have the capacity to store 1,000 gigabytes (a Terabyte) of data?" That number is unfathomable! My 1st PC in the 80's could store 10 megabytes. 

Copyright vs. Public Domain

Copyright vs. Public Domain

The KJV is public domain. The KJV can be copied freely in its entirety. It is totally free to use either spoken or written.

There are 3 things you should take notice of: a) any version can use any portion of the KJV b) The KJV is not in chronological order c) Chapter and verses did not come from the original text but were added.

Years ago I copyright several of my writings in book form. At that time authors had to mail a hard copy/printout to the copyright office to have it registered. It’s funny. I guess not so many independent authors were registering, copyrighting their works at the time.

For I got a call from the copyright office asking me and they asked what’s going on? I did not have an answer. Sometime after that I copyrighted some other writing. The copyright office had since developed an online copyrighting service whereby you can upload your document in digital format instead of mailing it in. That saved time for users, the copyright office, as well as there were no more storage space requirements for the hard copies/ printouts.

You can use this service for a nominal fee and you can have exclusive rights to your writings. Use this website:

Public Domain

In Copyright law, literary or creative works over which the creator no longer has an exclusive right to restrict, or receive a royalty for, their reproduction or use but which can be freely copied by the public.

Public Domain

1) in copyright law, the right of anyone to use literature, music or other previously copyrighted materials, after the copyright period has expired. Although the copyright laws have changed several times, a rule of thumb would be that the last possible date for copyright protection would be 50 years after the death of the author. Thus, the works of William Shakespeare, Mark Twain, Jack London, and other classic writers are in the public domain and may be published by anyone without payment of a royalty. 2) All lands and waters owned by federal, state and local governments.

Most other versions of the Bible are protected under copyright law. Under copyright law you can reproduce, even verbally only a portion of these Bible versions otherwise will be guilty of violating copyright infringement laws. You have to get permission and probably pay for using more than what is allowed free. The copyright number is printed on one of the pages near the cover.

Also, authors copyright their work because it is their intellectual property. They own the rights to it. Other authors or speakers can’t use their property without citing, referring to the source. That would be plagiarism. In other words according to copyright law each version must be different. That is why you see so many differences between words and meanings in the different Bible versions.

Authors and publishers are under no obligation to accurately translate the Bible. They can take any liberty they want to. In other words they can add to or subtract from Gods word in the name of copyright protection and profit. 

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Copyright is a legal right created by the law of a country that grants the creator of original work exclusive rights to its use and distribution, usually for a limited time. The exclusive rights are not absolute; they are limited by limitations and exceptions to copyright law, including fair use.

Copyright is a form of intellectual property, applicable to any expressed representation of a creative work. It is often shared among multiple authors, each of whom holds a set of rights to use or license the work, and who are commonly referred to as rights holders. These rights frequently include reproduction, control over derivative works, distribution, public performance, and "moral rights" such as attribution.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Copyright

Now commonly subsumed under the broader category of legal regulations known as intellectual-property law, copyright is designed primarily to protect an artist, a publisher, or another owner against specific unauthorized uses of his work (e.g., reproducing the work in any material form, publishing it, performing it in public, filming it, broadcasting it, or making an adaptation of it). A copyright supplies the holder with a limited monopoly over the created material that assures him of both control over its use and a portion ... (100 of 1,506 words)

Tolerance? It hurts!

Tolerance? It hurts!

Tolerating something can hurt and be deceptive. It can cause agony and sorrow if it goes against what you believe. If it goes against what you have been taught all of your life. Some people can tolerate what others can’t because of what they are being taught. Is education always a good thing? We called it indoctrination which is a different matter altogether.

You don’t have to tolerate the 7 deadly sins. In fact you don’t have to tolerate anything that you don’t want to. It does not matter if anyone asks you to tolerate them or it. In most cases people who ask you to tolerate them won’t tolerate you and they are hurt by your lack of tolerance. That is a personal problem everyone needs to resolve or accept. 

The hurt of not being tolerated is pendulum that swings both ways. It can’t be a one way street!

The seven deadly sins are: wrath, greed, sloth, pride, lust, envy, and gluttony. Each is a form of Idolatry-of-Self.

JOHNNY SEAGULL

JOHNNY SEAGULL

I remember a day I spent at the San Leandro Marina in Sunny California.  I saw this seagull that was missing his left web foot. There was only a stump remaining. He would flap his wings to try and steady himself when he tried to stand. It was hard enough just trying to maintain his balance. Now and then some of the other seagulls would peck at him which would add to his misery. But every once and a while he would sit down, and the others would leave him alone.

During those times he looked like it felt so good, just to sit there unbothered. Then once again the other seagulls would begin to peck at him. He would stand and flap his wings again trying to maintain his balance. This continued over and over again till he flew away.

It reminded me that so much joy follows pain if we just hang in there long enough. Sometimes people can be so cruel and uncompassionate. Johnny has to face his problem the rest of his life. If not for the joy he felt I don't think he could have survived. Weeping may endure for a night but joy comes in the morning.

Sometimes this sequence sorrow and joy happens several times during the day for many of us. Perhaps the same joy that enabled Johnny to continue is what enables us to continue. How much more so should we be encouraged, when God cares more for us more than all he has created? For his eye is on the seagull,

                 And I know he watches me.

Some Church members are against Social Media. Why?

Some Church members are against Social Media. Why?

Not again!

Why do some people want to slam the door in the Church face? The Church is people! The Church is not a building where people hide, and hide their faith, afraid to go outside and face the real world. God has opened the door to us through social media. Only the chosen frozen can speak in Church. Here, everybody can have their say.

I have learned a lot from fellow Christians and believers of different faiths. We have radicals in all faiths that don’t want the word spread. It is arrogant to think that God only speaks to some people. We live in dangerous times. The Church is underground and invisible. On Social Media we are taking a risk sharing our common faith.

I feel that because of Social Media Christians has the opportunity to share the gospel. Not only that we are able to improve are teaching skills, and our evangelist skills. It makes it easier to share with strangers where ever you go. We equip ourselves by being openly challenged. We learn from others from around the world. Our Churches are not equipped for teaching and equipping the saints for ministry. Do you have all 5 ministry gifts from Eph 4:11 operating in your Church? No. Bible College and Seminary graduates freely give on social media. They do not ask for money. They do have not have much opportunity to do so in Church.

You do not have to respond to our Christian posts. It is better than what many leaders in your local congregations instruct their members to do. Members are ill equipped to discuss the Bible outside of the confines of their Church. They don't know how to evangelize and they feel rejected and condemned and rightly so. So there leaders tell them to slam the door in our faces when we only want to have Bible study.

With Social Media we freely discuss the Bible, and learn, and share with anyone. Even with people who claimed to be not of the Christian faith. I find so many of them I really enjoy fellowship with and them with me. It is no way else possible for we to meet.
