I have been reading <a href="http://www.amazon.com/Christian-History-American-Revolution-Consider/dp/0912498048/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&amp;qid=1305684330&amp;sr=8-1">The Christian History of the American Revolution Consider and Ponder.</a> This is a monster of a Book.

Another monster book. I&nbsp;have also continued my reading of the Bible. I am in 1 Chronicles right now. The first 9 chapters are killer. Allot of genealogies&nbsp; in there.&nbsp;</p>
<p>I have had some clients have issues with their systems, so that has taken some of my time as well. I&nbsp;am giving about an hour a night working on some new software. I don't have much time to get into any major projects, so the few minutes i pick one feature and try to implement it. Sometimes it works, many times it doesn't, so i have to pick it up some other night.</p>
<p>Something i have noticed in talking with people is how lazy those that call themselves &quot;Christian&quot; really are. They know more about what's on some tv show then they do about the Bible. Ask them a question about scripture and they have no idea what you are talking about. You have to stick to the Easter/Christmas stories in order to talk Biblically with them. It's so pathetic. Something i read in the book mentioned above. I&nbsp;am putting it here. The software i am working on is my reference app. I write my notes in my notebook or i put them in reference. As soon as i get printing i will put more into it.&nbsp;I like to keep a physical copy. I have been using computers long enough to know not to trust them. :-D</p>
<p><q>All societies of men must be governed in some way or other. The less they may have of stringent State Government, the more they must have of individual self-government. The less they rely on public law or physical force, the more they must rely on private moral restraint. Men, in a word, must necessarily be controlled, either by a power within them, or by a power without them; either by the word of God, or by the strong arm of man; either by the Bible, or by the bayonet. It may do for other countries and other governments to talk about the State supporting religion. Here, under our own free institutions, it is Religion which must support the State.</q></p>
<p><q>And never more loudly than at this moment have these institutions of ours called for such support.... Who does not perceive in all these circumstances that our country is threatened, more seriously than it ever has been before, with that moral deterioration, which has been the unfailing precursor of political downfall? And who is so bold a believer in any system of human checks and balances as to imagine, that dangers can be effectively counteracted or averted in any other way, than by bringing the mighty moral and religious influences of the Bible to bear in our defence.</q></p>
<p>It's more than just the Christians being lazy. I&nbsp;think there are many other people that are lazy as well. There are things that will require allot of the American and to many of them have become so &quot;entitled&quot; to what they think they deserve that they will selfishly&nbsp; watch their country be destroyed than to give up what they can to see it be preserved. Now this is not everyone, just to many people. Heck when <a href="http://www.cnbc.com/id/41969508/Welfare_State_Handouts_Make_Up_One_Third_of_U_S_Wages">1/3rd of US. Wages and Salaries</a> are payouts from the government, it is a big sign that things are going wrong. Another sad fact is that most people don't even know about the kind of government that America was founded as. Just so you know it's a Constitutional Republic, or some say a Representative Republic. So many people run around saying we are a Democracy, which is sad. I guess what Hitler said is true, <q><font size="2"><font size="3" face="Georgia"><i>Tell             a lie often enough, loud enough, and long enough, and people will             believe you.</i></font></font></q></p>
<p>And people have taken this Democracy&nbsp; hook, line, and sinker. My personal belief is that man removed God's Word from being the text book of America.&nbsp; Dr. Benjamin Rush had this to say about removing the Bible:</p>
<p><cite><font color="#000000" face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif">But passing by  all other considerations, and contemplating merely the political     institutions of the United States, I lament that we waste so much time  and money    in punishing crimes and take so little pains to prevent  them. We profess to    be republicans, and yet we neglect the only means  of establishing and perpetuating    our republican forms of government;  that is, the universal education of our    youth in the principles of  Christianity by means of the Bible; for this divine    book, above all  others, favors that equality among mankind, that respect for    just  laws, and all those sober and frugal virtues which constitute the soul     of republicanism</font></cite></p>
<p>Don't look for the Church to help. There are so many men that the building they are in is just a temple to themselves ( I call them Whore houses), and they wouldn't know the True Word of God if it hit them in the head. They like to scratch ears these days(II Timothy 4:3). I&nbsp;have talked with some that are seeking the Truth, yet so many are not. Something i was telling someone else the other day. Many people want God on their terms, and they think He has agreed with them.&nbsp;However you just need to open up your KJB and realize it's His terms, period. </p>

I changed that and started to study the word of God more and more. Now i am just nuts to do His good pleasure. I am so jacked up on Jesus i cannot explain how great it is. Some people think it's just a phase, the fire has been growing in me for over two years. People around me have mentioned to me about the change they have seen in me. I got sick of church because they were not preaching the word of the Living God, and i stopped going for a while. But as i was reading scripture i learned that i was not to forsake the assembling with other believers.&nbsp;</p>
<p>Hebrews 10:25 (KJV)</p>
<p><sup id="en-KJV-30159" class="versenum">25</sup>Not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as the manner of some is; but exhorting one another: and so much the more, as ye see the day approaching.</p>
<p>and in 2 Timothy 3:16</p>
<p>&nbsp;<sup id="en-KJV-29870" class="versenum">16</sup>All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness:</p>
<p>So this was something i had to struggle with. I was torn i did not want to go back to the place i was. It did no good but to get me upset that the minister wasted all those peoples time and mine on a message that was more him speaking then the word of God being used to instruct people in their life. To me the church is the aid station. I come to it to be comforted and encouraged by those that follow Jesus Christ and to comfort and encurage those that attend as well.</p>
<p>1 Peter 4:2 Feed the flock of God which is amon you, taking the oversight thereof, not by constraint, but willingly; not for filthy lucre, but of a ready mind;</p>
<p>Instead i come away feeling like i was still out on the battle field helplessly watching as the children of God were being lead to hell. Not many people carry their Bibles to church with them anymore. They have gotten so lazy and let the minister just put the words up on a screen for them to read. My question is how do you know what is said from the pulpit is true if you don't have the Living Word of God with you to check it by. But that's another story.</p>
<p>Now i know your probably thinking this is way to crazy, and that i am exaggerating. All i can say is this is what i see from my perspective. When i was born again i was born into war. Satan has done his best to try and kill me and he's rightfully ticked off because he hasn't been (and wont be)&nbsp; successful in that endevour. Yet i like it that way, he hates my guts and i hate his, so the feeling stays mutual. I want to cause him so many headaches and tick him off so much that he will send the whole horde of hell after me. The idiot doesn't get it that he's outnumbered. As i press for the things of God, Satan will loose all thought about who i serve and focus just on me. So when they come out for a fight the Host of Heaven will be there to show Satan who's really is in charge. The Word of God says to fear not. The only one we are to fear is God himself.</p>
<p>Matthew 10:28</p>
<p>And fear not them which kill the body, but are not able to kill the soul: but rather fear him which is able to destroy both<strong> </strong>soul and body in hell.</p>
<p>II Corinthians 7:1</p>
<p>Having therefore these promises, dearly beloved, let us cleanse ourselves from all filthiness of the flesh and spirit, perfecting holiness in the fear of God.</p>
<p>1Peter 2:17</p>
<p>Honour all men. Love the brotherhood. Fear God. Honour the king.</p>
<p>Revelation 14:7</p>
<p>Saying with a loud voice, Fear God, and give glory to him; for the hour of his judgment is come: and worship him that made heaven, and earth, and the sea, and the fountains of waters.</p>
<p>Revelation 19:5</p>
<p>And a voice came out of the throne, saying, Praise our God, all ye his servants, and ye that fear him, both small and great.</p>
<p>I submit to other fellow belivers in Jesus Christ according to Ephesians 5:21</p>
<p>Submitting yourselves one to another in the fear of God.</p>
<p>I desire in my heart to run this race and to fight this good fight of faith.</p>
<p>1 Corinthians 9:24</p>
<p>Know ye not that they which run in a race run all, but one receiveth the prize? So run, that ye may obtain.</p>
<p>1 Timothy 6:12</p>
<p>Fight the good fight of faith, lay hold on eternal life, whereunto thou art also called, and hast professed a good profession before many witnesses.</p>
<p>I know many battles lay ahead for me. Many trials, temptations, and snares. I&nbsp;ask you to pray for me as Jesus Christ prayed for Simon Peter.</p>
<p>Luke 22:31,32</p>
<p><sup>31</sup>And the Lord said, Simon, Simon, behold, Satan hath desired to have you, that he may sift you as wheat: <sup>32</sup> But I have prayed for thee, that thy faith fail not: and when thou art converted, strengthen thy brethren.</p>
<p>I know from scripture that Satan still needs to ask for permission to do things.</p>
<p>Job 1:7-</p>
<p><sup><font>7</font></sup><font> And the LORD said unto Satan, Whence comest thou? Then Satan answered the LORD, and said, From going to and fro in the earth, and from walking up and down in it. <sup>8</sup></font><font>And the LORD said unto Satan, Hast thou considered my servant Job, that <i>there is</i> none like him in the earth, a perfect and an upright man, one that feareth God, and escheweth evil?</font><font> <sup>9 </sup></font><font>Then Satan answered the LORD, and said, Doth Job fear God for nought? </font><sup><font>10 </font></sup><font>Hast not thou made an hedge about him, and  about his house, and about all that he hath on every side? thou hast  blessed the work of his hands, and his substance is increased in the  land. <sup>11</sup> </font><font>But put forth thine hand now, and touch all that he hath, and he will curse thee to thy face. <sup>12</sup> </font><font>And the LORD said unto Satan, Behold, all that he hath <i>is</i> in thy power; only upon himself put not forth thine hand. So Satan went forth from the presence of the LORD.</font></p>
<p><font>Satan knows he must get permission to do things, i just am the freak that gets him all up in a roar that he will forget that one thing, which will get his teeth knocked in. If he has any left from previous fights. </font>I intend to hold God to His word.</p>
<p>James 1:12 <font>Blessed <i>is</i> the man that endureth temptation: for when he is tried, he shall receive the crown of life, which the Lord hath promised to them that love him. </font></p>
<p><font>Now let me nip this in the bud. Some people calling themselves a &quot;Christian&quot; would want to give me advice on not talking in the way i do. That i should tone it down and just get in line. I say &quot;nuts&quot;. Tone what down, become a dead person like you. As Leonard Ravenhill put it, you go from being Gods chosen people, to Gods frozen people. I want to make it very clear who my enemy is, it's not the person that knows not Christ and will hurl insults at me, threaten my life, and hope the worst on me. I would say pray for the worst, but who would they pray to? No not at all. Again scripture is very clear on this</font>.</p>
<p>Matthew 5:11,12 <sup>11</sup><font>Blessed <i>is</i> the man that endureth temptation: for when he is tried, he shall receive the crown of life, which the Lord hath promised to them that love him.</font><sup><font>12</font></sup><font>Rejoice, and be exceeding glad: for great <i>is</i> your reward in heaven: for so persecuted they the prophets which were before you.<font size="+0" face="none"> </font></font></p>
<p><font>That's right, you read it go get yourself a KJV&nbsp;Bible and read it for yourself. Rejoice when people persecute you! So many people running around claiming to be a Christ follower, just don't get this. However i am more inclined to think it's more likely the minister they are listening to has not and may not tell them this. More like keep watch what you say and don't offend anyone because you may turn them away from Christ. Again &quot;nuts&quot;!!!! Get out there and do it the way God wants you to. Reading on in the Holy Scripture</font>:</p>
<p>Luke 6:35 <font><font face="none"> <font color="red"> </font></font>But love ye your  enemies, and do good, and lend, hoping for nothing again; and your  reward shall be great, and ye shall be the children of the Highest: for  he is kind unto the unthankful and <i>to</i> the evil.</font><font><font size="+0" face="none"> </font></font></p>
<p><font>I just enjoy this so much, isn't the word of God awesome?</font> God is kind to the unthankful and to the evil. If not we would never on our own accept Him. He has been kind in sending Jesus Christ, and the Holy Spirit, which is the comforter, to us wicked people. And now we have you and i here, saying we are Christ Followers, yet not going out and telling the whole world about Him and His awesome love. Yes some of us have went on missions trips to other countries to tell people about Christ, however i feel it's more important to do it at home. You are being watched at home. And for to many people the only Christ they will see, and the only Bible they will read is you. And when they hurl insults at you and seek to destroy you, and you retaliate in the same way, your faith is a fake. It's worthless and you are a liar.</p>
<p>Romans 12:20 <font>Therefore if thine enemy hunger, feed him; if he thirst, give him drink: for in so doing thou shalt heap coals of fire on his head. </font><font><font size="+0" face="none"> </font></font></p>
<p><font>I&nbsp;John 4:20 If a man say, I love God, and hateth his brother, he is a liar: for he that loveth not his brother whom he hath seen, how can he love God whom he hath not seen?</font></p>
<p>Now all this talk about love and being nice to those that are mean to you, you might think i am against fighting. Well that's not so and quite far from it. If some whack job of a person, goes on and kills a bunch of people, then it's time for him/her to go. Some terrorist attack your country, God will judge them, it's up to the military to arrange the meeting. There are some people that you have to put down like a bad dog. Well that's all i am going to say on this right now.</p>
<p>Seek the Lord and purpose in your heart to do His good pleasure. Run the race, seek to finish it. God rewards those that trust in Him. So trust He does amazing things all the time. He will do something amazing with you if you allow Him to.</p>]]></summary><category term="My Life"/><published>2010-08-13T15:19:57-05:00</published><content type="html"><![CDATA[<p>I have been a &quot;Christian&quot; since i was a kid, it was not until i got married that i realized that i was not loving the Lord the way i should. I changed that and started to study the word of God more and more. Now i am just nuts to do His good pleasure. I am so jacked up on Jesus i cannot explain how great it is. Some people think it's just a phase, the fire has been growing in me for over two years. People around me have mentioned to me about the change they have seen in me. I got sick of church because they were not preaching the word of the Living God, and i stopped going for a while. But as i was reading scripture i learned that i was not to forsake the assembling with other believers.&nbsp;</p>
<p>Hebrews 10:25 (KJV)</p>
<p><sup id="en-KJV-30159" class="versenum">25</sup>Not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as the manner of some is; but exhorting one another: and so much the more, as ye see the day approaching.</p>
<p>and in 2 Timothy 3:16</p>
<p>&nbsp;<sup id="en-KJV-29870" class="versenum">16</sup>All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness:</p>
<p>So this was something i had to struggle with. I was torn i did not want to go back to the place i was. It did no good but to get me upset that the minister wasted all those peoples time and mine on a message that was more him speaking then the word of God being used to instruct people in their life. To me the church is the aid station. I come to it to be comforted and encouraged by those that follow Jesus Christ and to comfort and encurage those that attend as well.</p>
<p>1 Peter 5:2 Feed the flock of God which is among you, taking the oversight thereof, not by constraint, but willingly; not for filthy lucre, but of a ready mind;</p>
<p>Instead i come away feeling like i was still out on the battle field helplessly watching as the children of God were being lead to hell. Not many people carry their Bibles to church with them anymore. They have gotten so lazy and let the minister just put the words up on a screen for them to read. My question is how do you know what is said from the pulpit is true if you don't have the Living Word of God with you to check it by. But that's another story.</p>
<p>Now i know your probably thinking this is way to crazy, and that i am exaggerating. All i can say is this is what i see from my perspective. When i was born again i was born into war. Satan has done his best to try and kill me and he's rightfully ticked off because he hasn't been (and wont be)&nbsp; successful in that endevour. Yet i like it that way, he hates my guts and i hate his, so the feeling stays mutual. I want to cause him so many headaches and tick him off so much that he will send the whole horde of hell after me. The idiot doesn't get it that he's outnumbered. As i press for the things of God, Satan will loose all thought about who i serve and focus just on me. So when they come out for a fight the Host of Heaven will be there to show Satan who's really in charge. The Word of God says to fear not. The only one we are to fear is God himself.</p>
<p>Matthew 10:28</p>
<p>And fear not them which kill the body, but are not able to kill the soul: but rather fear him which is able to destroy both<strong> </strong>soul and body in hell.</p>
<p>II Corinthians 7:1</p>
<p>Having therefore these promises, dearly beloved, let us cleanse ourselves from all filthiness of the flesh and spirit, perfecting holiness in the fear of God.</p>
<p>1Peter 2:17</p>
<p>Honour all men. Love the brotherhood. Fear God. Honour the king.</p>
<p>Revelation 14:7</p>
<p>Saying with a loud voice, Fear God, and give glory to him; for the hour of his judgment is come: and worship him that made heaven, and earth, and the sea, and the fountains of waters.</p>
<p>Revelation 19:5</p>
<p>And a voice came out of the throne, saying, Praise our God, all ye his servants, and ye that fear him, both small and great.</p>
<p>I submit to other fellow belivers in Jesus Christ according to Ephesians 5:21</p>
<p>Submitting yourselves one to another in the fear of God.</p>
<p>I desire in my heart to run this race and to fight this good fight of faith.</p>
<p>1 Corinthians 9:24</p>
<p>Know ye not that they which run in a race run all, but one receiveth the prize? So run, that ye may obtain.</p>
<p>1 Timothy 6:12</p>
<p>Fight the good fight of faith, lay hold on eternal life, whereunto thou art also called, and hast professed a good profession before many witnesses.</p>
<p>I know many battles lay ahead for me. Many trials, temptations, and snares. I&nbsp;ask you to pray for me as Jesus Christ prayed for Simon Peter.</p>
<p>Luke 22:31,32</p>
<p><sup>31</sup>And the Lord said, Simon, Simon, behold, Satan hath desired to have you, that he may sift you as wheat: <sup>32</sup> But I have prayed for thee, that thy faith fail not: and when thou art converted, strengthen thy brethren.</p>
<p>I know from scripture that Satan still needs to ask for permission to do things.</p>
<p>Job 1:7-12</p>
<p><sup><font>7</font></sup><font> And the LORD said unto Satan, Whence comest thou? Then Satan answered the LORD, and said, From going to and fro in the earth, and from walking up and down in it. <sup>8</sup></font><font>And the LORD said unto Satan, Hast thou considered my servant Job, that <i>there is</i> none like him in the earth, a perfect and an upright man, one that feareth God, and escheweth evil?</font><font> <sup>9 </sup></font><font>Then Satan answered the LORD, and said, Doth Job fear God for nought? </font><sup><font>10 </font></sup><font>Hast not thou made an hedge about him, and  about his house, and about all that he hath on every side? thou hast  blessed the work of his hands, and his substance is increased in the  land. <sup>11</sup> </font><font>But put forth thine hand now, and touch all that he hath, and he will curse thee to thy face. <sup>12</sup> </font><font>And the LORD said unto Satan, Behold, all that he hath <i>is</i> in thy power; only upon himself put not forth thine hand. So Satan went forth from the presence of the LORD.</font></p>
<p><font>Satan knows he must get permission to do things, i just am the freak that gets him all up in a roar that he will forget that very thing, which will get his teeth knocked in. If he has any left from previous fights. </font>I intend to hold God to His word.</p>
<p>James 1:12 <font>Blessed <i>is</i> the man that endureth temptation: for when he is tried, he shall receive the crown of life, which the Lord hath promised to them that love him. </font></p>
<p><font>Now let me nip this in the bud. Some people calling themselves a &quot;Christian&quot; would want to give me advice on not talking in the way i do. That i should tone it down and just lay low till Jesus comes back. I say &quot;nuts&quot;. Tone what down, become a dead person like you. As Leonard Ravenhill put it, you go from being Gods chosen people, to Gods frozen people. I want to make it very clear who my enemy is, it's not the person that knows not Christ and will hurl insults at me, threaten my life, and hope the worst on me. I would say pray for the worst, but who would they pray to? No not at all. Again scripture is very clear on this</font>.</p>
<p>Matthew 5:11,12 <sup>11</sup>Blessed are ye, when men shall revile you, and persecute you, and shall say all manner of evil against you falsely, for my sake<font>.</font><sup><font>12</font></sup><font>Rejoice, and be exceeding glad: for great <i>is</i> your reward in heaven: for so persecuted they the prophets which were before you.<font size="+0" face="none"> </font></font></p>
<p><font>That's right, you read it, now go get yourself a KJV&nbsp;Bible and read it for yourself again. Rejoice when people persecute you!

I get the view it's about choice, but this post is about a comment someone made that hit my launch button. I don't know if it was a joke or not. So here is the comment</span></p>
<p>myuscavage</p>
<p>&quot;Religiously, I have a hard time with homosexually, no doubt. But keep in mind...this is the U.S.A. and you can't push your religious views on others.&quot;</p>
<p>Now this could be a joke, or he really feels that way. So this is my comment back if it's not a joke and to those that feel in the U.S of A &quot;you can't push your religious views on others&quot;.</p>
<p>@myuscavage Who says i cannot push my religious views on others? YOU! I take my orders from above, specifically Jesus Christ. <br />
Mark 16:15 And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature.<br />
&nbsp;<br />
I don't see any exceptions do you?<br />
<br />
How about Matthew 28:19-20 </p>
<p>19Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost:<br />
20 Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you always, even unto the end of the world. Amen.<br />
<br />
The place i want to live in holds Christ higher than man and lives by His law first and foremost. Just let me know why i cannot &quot;push&quot; my beliefs. The other side has no problem pushing theirs, and the end result is death.<br />
<br />
Proverbs 14:12 There is a way which seemeth right unto a man, but the end thereof are the ways of death.<br />
<br />
And by push i mean live it out and want the country i live in to be established on the foundation of Jesus Christ and the Christian Religion.&nbsp; Not &quot;push&quot; as in accept this or die, that's not the way God is and it's not what i am called to do. You go against The Holy God nothing will save you from His wrath. My desire is you exist here long enough to figure out your wrong and get your life right with Christ before you are called before the Judge.</p>
<p>Ezekiel 18:23</p>
<p>23 Have I any pleasure at all that the wicked should die? saith the Lord GOD: and not that he should return from his ways, and live?</p>
<p>Also what kind of &quot;Religiously&quot; are you subscribing to?<br />
The world will hate me because of my devotion to Jesus Christ<br />
John 15:18-19 18 If the world hate you, ye know that it hated me before it hated you. 19 If ye were of the world, the world would love his own: but because ye are not of the world, but I have chosen you out of the world, therefore the world hateth you.<br />
<br />
I will keep pushing for a God fearing nation that upholds His law. You can hate me all you want, it's to be expected.<br />
<br />
All scripture from KJV.</p>]]></content></entry><entry><title>When it rains it pours</title><link href="/My-Life/2010/05/09/When-it-rains-it-pours"/><id>urn:uuid:4138fcdf-13ac-3eec-b40c-3f432f109345</id><updated>2010-05-09T07:18:29-05:00</updated><summary type="html"><![CDATA[<span class="synopsis">Things are crazy.
