Beautiful words and humbling. God is good, all the time.A long time friend that I've mentioned here many times wanted me to pass along some faith building info to everyone. I've been helping him and him me the past few days and we've agreed to have each other's backs the next few weeks as we reapair old a d build nrw stuff on our own properties. (It's weird how two people can not talk or see each other as much but our lives work out in the same directions.)
He's had some injuries come back to bother him and new ones crop up the last 6M, and really needed help and motivation to get going through the pain. We both did. Anyway, he's written a book (maybe more than one) and is itchin to finish another about Jesus and the prophecies he fulfilled, because "So many don't understand the scope of what he did here and will do when he returns."
Copied and pasted-
"Grace/mercy was given to us in Jesus before the beginning of time," and it was "revealed to us" 2k years ago.
What most know (through the spirit) but probably don't realize is that the entire scripture has been "revealed" over time rather than "created" or "inspired" at the time it was given. Think about that for a second and test it. We know that without the Son's willingness BEFORE THE BEGINNING OF TIME to redeem a people for the Father, creation itself would not have been made possible.
"So what?" some may say, but the implications are HUGE.
This means that every commandment, every act of salvation and faithful response (in advance of knowing how salvation might occur, mind you) was known by the Father and Son. Everything was set in place, planned, so that those seeking Him would be able to find Him.
The sabbath, all of the festivals given through Moses, all of the commandments, all of the foreshadowing of the people in Jesus' ancestral line, and all of the times God reached out and saved everyone from Nineveh to Egypt and beyond- were planned in advance. They were only REVEALED at their proper time. They all point to the work of His Son.
Jesus showed the true meaning and origin, even the corrected keeping of Passover, Unleavened Bread, Weeks (Pentecost), Day of Atonements, and Tabernacles. He came at Tabernacles (the original festival of lights and dedication of the temple), because he is the light of the world and the temple symbolizes him, not the other way around. He covered us with his blood and took away our sins (symbolism of Atonements and Unleavened Bread) and cast them far from us at Passover, and gave us the gift of the indwelling of the spirit at the Feast of Weeks (because he is the bread of life and the Word of God given on that day as well).
He is THE REASON for all of those "seasons." They are not Jewish, but appointments from God and with God for the world to share in here and are promises for the world to come. They were supposed to be WITNESSED BY and shared WITH GENTILES seeking God, but instead were hidden not just from gentiles but from Israel itself by those who rejected the Father.
The Day of Judgment (renamed Rosh Hashanah and changed) is coming, along with the final portions of the Day of Atonements (a day if accountabilty/reckoning of accounts). Jesus will fulfill those, too, before the final, joyful fulfillment of the Feast of Tabernacles when Father and Son will dwell with us forever. It is critical that we remember His and His Son's work on these days, for it is a commandment Jesus kept to perfection. For at these times He draws near and allows us to draw nearer than any other time of year.
May God bless all who seek Him and through repentance His Son. May they find the forgiveness promised, earned, and delivered to all who pick up their staff and replace it with that of the Son. May we all rejoice together in the world to come as brothers, sisters, and children of God!"
I hope this blesses you and humbles you as it did me when he shared it with me.

That is a high-end Charger and NOT a cop car... (Snapped that at a red light today.) Nah, nothing to see here.

Silicon Valley Bank collapse sends tech startups scrambling
A $250 billion dollar bank is in receivership. This bank financed new tech startups. Even CNN is worried about this.

I haven't made it that far south in FL yet. I'm not sure if it's worth it or not. Seems pretty touristy.How many of the D League have been to this spot and had your picture taken. The Conch Republic is strong.

Edit: Since I didn't check in this morning....it's babysitting day here so entertaining (and being entertained) by the niece.
I can only speak for me: Yes. But, the thing is, it's not part of the continental US.How many of the D League have been to this spot and had your picture taken. The Conch Republic is strong.

SC, if you're out on most places on the ocean, say on a boat, can't you see the sun come up over the water and set over the water?Key West is a unique place. It once was the largest city in Florida. It is one of the few places you can see the sun come up over the water and the sun set over the water. The food is excellent and if you are into bars they have some of the best around. Sloppy Joes was the favorite of Ernest Hemingway and his house is a tourist attraction and museum.
So much to do, so I am providing this video that highlights a few things. My favorite place was Fort Zackary Taylor State Park.
Yes, I always do on a cruise. But Key West is on land so I will revise my remarks.SC, if you're out on most places on the ocean, say on a boat, can't you see the sun come up over the water and set over the water?
They did secede from the United States in 1982 but that was to boost tourism. It worked.I can only speak for me: Yes. But, the thing is, it's not part of the continental US.
I just noticed that a D-League post I wrote this morning somehow didn't reach the thread. That's okay. Nothing much has changed.
My son got home from LExington overnight, and I'm glad to have him here.
Big game for the Cats tonight. I guess I have a ways to go to trust this bunch, but one way or the other, 'Let the Madness begin.'
I was delighted to see North Carolina wiped out last night and lose any realistic chance for the tournament. For Pre-Season #1 to None and Done. Good riddance.
Hope it is (was) a good day for all of you.
He was once in a lifetime. IMO Best radio personality in history. I listened for 32 years and he never once raised his voice or got into a heated argument with a caller. He did not call them names. He just reviewed the news, told us his feelings about it and told us what would happen.We need another Rush. I do not see one on the horizon...
Very familiar with Billy Sunday. My father and grandfather told me many stories about him including his days as a baseball player and evangelist. He was a legend in those days.I posted a story on the Is There A God thread. I will change a bit and repost. Ever hear of Billy Sunday? Billy was a pro baseball player in the 1880's time frame. During that time, baseball was played by rough and tumble people. It was beneath genteel people to watch a baseball game. billy quit baseball to become an evangelist. Billy had a teammate named Ed Williamson. Ed was one of baseballs top stars of the day.
Billy told of a time a group of players were on a ship crossing the English Channel. A great storm came up and the captain thought the ship would sink. Ed tied two life pre servers on himself and one to his wife. Ed then fell to his knees and prayed to God. He said he would be true if he survived. God spoke and the waves subsided.
They arrived back in the USA and Ed went to Chicago and opened a saloon on Dearborn Street. Billy said he would come to Chicago and come to Eds saloon while passing out tickets to the YMCA meetings. Billy said Ed would cry like a baby and he would pray for him and talk to him. He said when Ed died, they cut him open and his liver was so big it would not fit in a candy bucket. His kidneys were so shriveled they were like two stones.

Don't know why he quit baseball to be an evangelist. In those days, they didn't play baseball on Sunday. What's the problem?I posted a story on the Is There A God thread.
