INSPIRATION AND MOTIVATION

BODY AND SOUL

2007-12-19T08:52:00.000-08:00

BODY AND SOUL

When God created the first man and woman, He designed them with two essential parts, the physical and the spiritual. God's Holy Word actually indicates that there are really three essential parts in each human, body, soul and spirit (Hebrews 4:12 - "joints and marrow; soul and spirit"; but for the sake of simplicity, we will contrast the physical and soulical(or spiritual).

As human beings, the divinely placed elements are so entwined, that we can do nothing in our existence that would separate the influence that those elements have on each other. When the body suffers, the soul suffers and vice versa. When the body realizes its well-being, that has a great influence on a person's soul. It has become quite clear to me in recent weeks, with an onset of several physical ailments that the physical and soulical have had a great influence on each other.

When I was 17 years of age, I committed my soul to God and became a recipient by faith of all the wonderful aspects He offers a person who believes in Jesus Christ as Savior, Messiah and King. He wrote my name in the Book of Life (Philippians 4:3), along with the others mentioned in the text. It is impossible for me to explain how wonderful the knowledge of that position is.

So, my body, during 2007, has been taken over by several serious ailments. What, then, was I supposed to do? How long would I be ill? Would I be healed? What is God's plan in all of these events? SUDDENLY, the thought came to me. Years ago, when I trusted God with the eternal outcome of my soul, did I not also commit my body? Of late, I have realized more than ever before that yes, I gave my entire being to Him. He saved my soul. He will also care for my body according to His compassionate plan.

What we all need to realize is that God's archenemy, Satan, is totally opposed to all of the above.
He attacks from all angles and tries to get the best of the person who is suffering or who has met serious difficulties in his/her life.

You can readily see that the only solution that will bring peace and happiness, even in times of difficulty, is to cling to the loving God who will, without doubt, provide the necessary to ensure the best possible outcome. So, if your problem is health, finances, disappointment, loss of employment, conflict with others and a myriad of other problems a human can face, TURN TO THE GOD WHO UNDERSTANDS ALL AND HAS THE POWER TO MAKE THINGS RIGHT BECAUSE OF THE SALVATION AND BLESSINGS HE CAN GRANT AND BECAUSE OF THE DEATH OF CHRIST AT CALVARY AND HIS GLORIOUS RESURRECTION.

All of your future will be brighter. Trust me!

INSPIRATION AND MOTIVATION

2007-03-08T08:32:00.000-08:00

Inspiration and motivation are two human experiences serving as a basis for satifying desires and making sure that personal goals are crowned with success. Without them, success is difficult if not impossible.

Looking for and working toward goals usually has two parties in mind, the one who is inspired and motivated, or some other, a second party who can reap the results. There is nothing wrong with setting goals and seeking success for oneself, but there is a SUPERIOR WAY to operate in life. Rather than being self-centered and self-seeking, to have someone else in view as the recipient is that SUPERIOR WAY.

Along with multitudes of other people, I have learned that unlimited and total satisfaction has come to me over and over again, as expressed by a 2,000 year old ancient text: "Whatever you do in word or deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through Him." With that phrase as a motto, the Creator of the universe is pleased also. The man who penned those words was probably one of the most successul of all who have ever lived and has been responsible for benefitting the lives of countless individuals. In fact, during his lifetime, entire cities and regions were transformed.

You may say, "I do not know much about the Lord Jesus Christ." "Why should I be concerned about Him?" That is my point! Grab a Holy Bible; read the Gospel of St. John and I would be surprised it you did not continue to read the Scriptures on a regular basis. You can find the quotation in the previous paragraph in Colossians, chapter 3, verse 17.

ARE YOU SEARCHING FOR TRUTH?

2007-02-10T08:21:00.000-08:00

If your response to the title question is "yes", then you have a lot of company. Whether a person is a scientist, a philosopher, religiously inclined or a researcher of historical facts, all have as goal to find reality. No doubt, atheists supply what they believe to be truth, but agnostics claim that the truth cannot be known.
Did I hear someone out in cybar space say, "Finding truth is not all that important'? Really! Our life is occupied with finding out the facts. When purchases are made, people check the ticket or bill to determine if the bottom line figure represents the truth. When we hear statements, do we not ask ourselves, "is that gossip or essentially true?" When you think about it, no one is totally indifferent to truth.
If we now agree that truth is important, the next question is where and how does one find the truth? First of all, we have existing ancient records, in stone, on papyrus or paper and today we have access to millions of items that are or could be claimed to be "fact." Through modern technology, we are bombarded with information in the form of theories and hypotheses, which can be found to be very dependable. BUT CAN WE BE SURE?
At the core of our search for truth, we engage our intelligence and ability to perceive, every single days of our lives. But how do we determine whether or not we are being successful in finding the truth?
I can encourage you by reminding you of something that you have probably heard: There is such a thing as ABSOLUTE TRUTH. At this moment whether you realize it or not, you believe certain facts to be really true, but of others, you are not sure. In science, nature, history and other disciplines, many absolute truths have already been found. The process goes on.
In conducting the research process, we use our human spirit, which animates our body.
Anthropology and archeology show that every civilization, cultural and sub-cultural studies, include a search for a "higher power." Now, what sources have you been using in looking for spiritual truth, for that "higher power?"
Here is how I have found absolute truth in the spiritual realm. I have used the sixty-six books of the Holy Bible, and more precisely, the Person of the Son of God, who became a man so as to show people the way to the TRUTH. He stated, "I am the Truth" ( John 14:6) The Eternal God determined what man needs to know and has revealed that collective knowledge. Written over a period of fifteen centuries and still applicable today, another twenty centuries later, it remains the WORLD'S ALL TIME BESTSELLER.

GRAB YOUR BIBLE! Submerge yourself in ABSOLUTE TRUTH.

JE PENSE DONC JE SUIS

2007-01-21T14:28:00.000-08:00

Many people have studied the French language, and even others know enough to understand the phrase, "Je pense, donc je suis." Those words which serve as the title of my blog were written by the philosopher and mathematician, René Descartes (1596-1650). It simply means, "I can think, thus I exist."

Those words were the result of his development of a logical system of distinct and clear thought, based on deduction. He, then, arrived at the conclusion that the ability to reason proves one's existence. That was not really difficult to notice.

From there, Descartes developed his classic proof of the existence of God. There are a number of other proofs of God's existence. I am convinced that by the title "God", he meant the Jehovah of the Old Testament, and His Son, Jesus Christ of the New Testament.

Modern man would do well to go at least as far as Descartes did.

I hope you will enjoy my blog and get some ideas from it. Check out the Archives, also.

ISLAM IN! CHRISTIANITY OUT!

FOR QUITE SOME TIME opposition to Christian biblical principles has been on the increase. Resistance to the display of the Ten Commandments, to Bible clubs in schools, to prayers in the name of Jesus Christ in public meetings, to favoring changing the terms "Christmas tree" and "Christmas time" to "holiday tree" and "winter holiday." On numerous occasions, people who believe the Bible and for whom Jesus Christ is the central personality of their lives, have had to go to court to undo what some judges and organizations like the A.C.L.U. have championed.

Actually, those actions are mild compared to what has occurred in 2006 and even before. "It appears that some public schools in our nation have decided to exorcise Christianity from their halls, while simultaneously welcoming Islam into the classroom" (National Liberty Journal, November 2006, page 21.) In some classrooms, seventh graders are encouraged to " become Muslims", to accept Jihad as a struggle against opression and injustice and to accept as "truth" the Koran, purported to be God's word.

In the town where I live, this past week a forum on race and culture was organized by the city's mayor and one of the main speakers was a student and follower of Rumi, a man born in the Persian empire in 1207 A.D. and a disciple of a sect of Islam. Can you imagine inviting a teacher of Christianity with a Bible in his hand to teach people of our city the true way of peace?

It is my opinion that the trend we are seeing will continue to exercise itself, with many people willing to indulge.

This is written so that you be informed of what is happening in our great country of America, which is supposed to be "Christian", and which has been known as champions of Bible truth.

A NIGHT WITH THE KING

2006-11-04T08:45:00.000-08:00

A NIGHT WITH THE KING

Have you seen the remarkable film, now showing in theaters across our country?

It is the story from the biblical book of Esther and how the Jewish Feast of PURIM began. Ever since the events of that historical document, in the 5th century B.C., Jewish people, worldwide have celebrated it in the Hebrew month of Adar, which corresponded to March 2006 on the western calendar.

A beautiful young Jewish woman, originally named Hadassah, became queen in the house of King Ahasuerus, a.k.a Xerxes, king of Persia. His realm extended from Ethiopia to India. Renamed Esther, as queen, she became the favorite of the king.

A PLOT was established by a court prince named, Haman, to have annihilated all the Jews of the vast kingdom. Through a series of interesting events, God used Esther to persuade the king not to destroy her people. Her faith in God and intense prayer was her "weapon." Prior to the crisis, she had not told the king that she was Jewish. Her life could have been in peril also.

THE EVENTS were not coincidental. The living God intervened in history and preserved the people He chose in his interview with Abraham in Genesis 12:1-3.

ISRAEL'S VERY EXISTENCE TODAY depended upon that seemingly insignificant drama in history, and the Jewish people recognize that fact.

THE IMPORTANCE TO JEW AND GENTILE TODAY is immense. There would be no nation of Israel as we know it today. Also, it assures us that God will continue to safeguard His people, whom He has never rejected. We are assured by the Bible that Israel will continue from now on, as possessors of a part of the Holy Land and that God's bountiful blessings await all those who accept Jesus of Nazareth as God's Messiah.

RELIGION AND POLITICS

2006-10-21T09:07:00.000-07:00

RELIGION AND POLITICS

Cultural anthropology teaches us that every culture on
earth, whether sophisticated or primitive, is comprised of
the same seven elements: Family, Government (law),
Economics, Education, Science and Industry, Language and
Religion. Subjects such as politics, manufacturing and
recreation are included in Science and Industry. The
importance given to the various elements of a culture
determine to a large degree the focus of the culture.

A survey of the world’s current religions leaves no doubt
as to the source of knowledge serving as their basis, and
how they developed using that knowledge. I want to compare
the culture of what is called “Christianity” to those
of the rest of the world. And more particularly, I
want to use the type of followers of Christianity who
accept Divine revelation as the major authoritative
source for their beliefs and practices.

All other religions, sects and philosophies are marked
by the personal efforts of its adepts to find God, or to
define the god they think they have found. Another name for
that is “humanism.” All serious students of the history of
cultures and religions know that, without exception, each
recognizes some form or description of a deity or higher
power. An atheist probably thinks of himself as god.

Our America has been experiencing a definite shift in its
cultural focus since World War II to a more secular
orientation. Along with that trend, the popularity of
keeping religion and politics separated has grown. In
reality, religion and politics cannot be “divorced.” Our
core American values and beliefs are intricately
intertwined. Religion goes a long way to forming our
worldview and to a large part determines how we vote. It
has been said that true objectivity in journalism is shaped
by the worldview of the Bible.

An excellent example is the favoritism that America shows
toward modern Israel. Having a population made up of a
majority of “professing” Christians, Americans realize that
their religious roots are in Judaism. Christian believers
benefit from the promises God made to Abraham about 4,000
years ago.

Millions of Americans believe that as soon as a person
excludes God from their life equation, they are leaving
themselves open to a disaster in life, or in eternity or
both. Those, who really understand the God of all wisdom,
believe that His participation in every facet of life is very
desirable.

Is it reasonable to think that fallible man can steer his
own ship of life, without consulting the One who made the
ship? In that case, he is left to his own devices or, worse,
has to depend on others to provide information to make his
decisions.

Your freedom as an individual permits you to formulate
your opinions and to make your conclusions.

LIFE IS GAY

2006-10-17T09:21:00.000-07:00

"LIFE IS GAY", so they say. What do you think?

A growing movement has been afoot almost since the beginning of time, but today shows rapid mushrooming progress in these modern days. The "gay" movement has several forms: homo-sexuals, lesbians, transexuals and transgender people.
Like prostitution, one of the oldest of professions, "gay" activity is an ancient deviation of sexual life between a man and a man, or a woman and a women. Some of the most ancient manuscripts available today, from thousands of years ago, make clear reference to the practice.
In the United States, the gay movement is being embraced at a rapid rate by the thousands. Key words used in the movement are "rights", "acceptance", "open-mindedness" and "equality."

The word "gay" is actually a misnomer, for many who have participated have discovered that the results in their lives are anything but "gay" if you look at the basic long-standing concept of "gay." Why is it that gay people are willing to indulge in sin for a season and find out down the road, the hard way, that it is not all that it is "cracked up" to be.

A main reason for choosing that lifestyle is that "gays" leave God out of the equation of their lives. The Creator, in the beginning made a man and a woman, placed them together to enjoy each other, and every aspect of nature, including their sexuality. Any deviation from that simple, wholesome plan brings about physical and/or spiritual disaster in one way or another.

The gays want to exercise their rights. Yes, they have a right to desecrate their own bodies, but many have already paid dearly for that right in the form of HIV, murder of each other and various tragic results. They want to be accepted, have equality and meet with openmindedness.
But how can they be surprised and how can they expect the billions of people on the earth to accept their turning away from the time-honored practice of the loving mating of a man and a woman and the holy procreation of children?

A FINAL WORD! God states in the Bible, one of the most ancient texts available and definitely the only one with absolute authority, the following:
"Do you not know that the unrighteous will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived, neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor homosexuals, nor sodomites, nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners will inherit the kingdom of God"
I Corinthians 6:9-10

MIDEAST TURMOIL

The world has been stunned by the events of the last month regarding the war in northern Israel and southern Lebanon. I have consulted numerous blogs concerning the matter but found nothing of substance which would lead to an understanding of what is going on, what the consequences will be and who will pay the consequences.

The current war in Palaestine is the tenth war Israel has fought since 1948.

WORLD WAR III - Some are saying that the military action in what is generally called the "holy land", will lead to a world war, perhaps the last and which could bring the "end of the world." Even Newt Gingrich, former legislator and otherwise well-informed person has used the term and the Media has followed, but no precise definition has been given.

The fact of the matter is that we are NOT facing W.W. III. On Tuesday of this past week (August 8), I publically stated that the military action in Palestine would not lead to a world war. In the meantime, an agreement has been signed by the U.N. for a cease-fire, and at this writing, it seems it will be accepted and followed by the parties involved.

THE NEXT WAR - The next MAJOR engagement will follow a time of general peace in the mideast region, though it does not seem like it now. The length of that period is unknown. No one should speculate. The war referred to has been prophesied in the Holy Bible, about 2,600 years ago. It will be an invasion of a peaceful Israel, by a coalition or axis of powers surrounding the small nation of Israel.

Three of the countries are already in place: Iran(Persia), Russia, and Syria. All three have already contributed heavily to the efforts of Hezbollah, both materially and by encouragement. Russia has sent over 200 nuclear experts to help Iran with its nuclear program. They have also been dredging out a port on the Mediterranean so that its ships can enter.

ISRAEL'S ENEMIES - They have vowed to destroy the nation, but that will not happen for God has a plan for His chosen people. Israel will remain long after all of its present days enemies are destroyed. You can study what God's long-ranged plan is for Israel in Romans, chapters 9 to 11.

TEMPORARY PEACE - There will a period of peace before the coalition invades Israel. That is explained in Ezekiel 39. Israel will not have to militarily destroy its enemies but the living God, Jehovah, will intervene and destroy them by natural means. Read Ezekiel 36-37 for some prophecies already fulfilled and chapters 38 and 39 for the coming invasion of Israel.

LASTING PEACE - The U.N. has declared its desire for a lasting peace and that is commendable, but it will not occur until Jesus Christ comes back to earth.

ANOTHER WAR - A few years after the future invasion of Israel there will be a great war and indeed worldwide in scope. A major player will be antichrist, a real man, who seeks to rule the world with Europe behind him and will will demand worship as a god. He, his armies and other military expeditions will be destroyed at the battle of Armageddon. That battle will be won by Jesus Christ when He comes to establish and enforce peace in the world. That period will be truly a lasting peace that will endure for 1,000 years.

ARE YOU BORN AGAIN? If not, accept Jesus Christ as your Prince of Peace. He will reconcile you to God, forgive your sins and cause you to avoid the terrible suffering there will be upon the earth in the future. See Revelation, chapters 4 - 18.

EVOLUTION AND INTELLIGENT DESIGN

2005-12-24T09:03:00.000-08:00

EVOLUTION AND INTELLIGENT DESIGN

The subtitle of this post is: "HOW DARING ARE YOU?"

Do you dare enter into the interesting area of discussion called "CREATION AND INTELLIGENT DESIGN?" Much to do is being made over the so-called scientific discoveries of Charles Darwin in the 19th century and the opposing idea that behind all existing things , there was an "Intelligent Designer."

An interesting facet of the whole subject is that people who accept evolution as fact do not want to admit that there could be a personal Being, that most call "God" as the source of the marvelous details we find in all of nature, human, plant and animal, and manifested in millions of species and sub-species.

Even those who adhere to the validity of "intelligent design" are sometimes embarrassed by the use of the term "God." The whole process smacks of wanting to eliminate the existence of the Eternal God in exchange for their own ideas. The expression "intelligent design" does not really give full recognition to the power and presence of God in the universe.

Are you daring enough and honest enough to search for the facts and then recognize them?
Please consult the following websites: www.icr.org and www.intelligentdesignnetwork.org.

SCIENCE AND RELIGION

2005-12-24T08:24:00.001-08:00

SCIENCE AND RELIGION

Contrary to the belief of many, the two subjects are not contradictory. Numerous are those curious people, who have not penetrated the matter sufficiently, so they have arrived at erroneous conclusions.
The principles involved in the vast field of knowledge called "science" have all been established, set in motion and maintained by the Creator God of the universe. Many prejudiced people deny His existence and/or limit His action and do not recognize Him as a Person with whom they have to deal.
The totality of the 66 books of the canons of the Old Testament and the New Testament were inspired by God as was the writing of the actual words. So the Creator is at the origin of both science and the Holy Bible. It is neither logical nor common sense that would suppose that the One source of scientific and religious knowledge would contradict Himself. The major and broadly accepted reason for conjecturing there is a conflict between science and the Bible is due to dishonest research and the permission to let stand ideas that are not based on fact.
Why the supposed conflict? It is due to the fact that we understand fully neither science nor the Bible. The current scientific knowledge at hand is by nature inexact. If it were not so, there would be no further need for research.
Scientists are changing their theories and conclusions on a regular basis. I could cite some scientific facts I was taught in school which are now totally rejected. The Holy Bible has not changed, but the process of verifying some of the statements it makes, has taken continuous and ardent work. One example would be the work of archeologists, scientists in their own right. They have been confirming over and over again what the Bible has stated in the historical and scientific realms. Those results are denied by the naysayers and the prejudiced. Therefore, if there are apparent contradictions, it is due to the fact that neither science nor the Bible are understood perfectly.
Scientific knowledge continues to be discovered. The Bible, however, remains a constant. Some of its parts were written about 3,500 years ago. All has come down to us today and the Bible remains the world's bestseller. Does that help?

THREE MAJOR RELIGIONS

2005-12-24T08:00:00.000-08:00

THREE MAJOR RELIGIONS

In actuality, there are an estimated eleven major religions on our planet. Of those eleven, there are a myriad of subdivided groups, called "sectes" or considered as minor religions.
In recent years, much has been made of the idea that Christianity,Judaism and Islam are from the same origin.It is true that Abraham(ca. 2000 B.C.)is recognized by all three. And it is evident that Palestine, and more particularly the city of Jerusalem have changed hands between the members of the three. Their presence in modern Jerusalem is very real.
Certain parts of the metropolis are considered especially sacred to each. Much blood has been shed in the process.
It is noteworthy that a major difference exists between the three groups. Mainly, it revolves around Jesus of Nazareth. Within the larger group known as "official Christendom", there are many variations of adherence to the importance of Jesus Christ and His teachings.
The Christian who holds to the belief that Jesus is Prophet, Priest and coming King also knows Him as God, the Son, the co-Creator and the Lord and Savior.
Islam and present-day official Judaism recognize Him only as a teacher or prophet. They reject totally the value of His death on the cross of Calvary and His bodily resurrection, three days later.
Jesus, Himself, said,"he who does NOT honor the Son, does not honor the Father who sent Him (Gospel of John 5:23).
Those are the facts! You decide!

GOD BLESS AMERICA

The familiar phrase above immediately brings to mind the words and music by Irving Berlin, copyrighted in 1938. It has been immortalized by well-known singer, Kate Smith, but sung by many others on many occasions, but especially with PATRIOTIC intent. It has galvanized the American spirit and united the American people.

A book by that title as well as sheet music are available. The song is listed among the favorite songs of the Boy Scouts of America, on their website. The phrase is seen on automobile bumpers and in some of the most unusual places. The whole idea of asking God to bless our nation has been inspiring to most Americans.
The text, aided by a "catchy" tune, acknowledges the existence of God. It indicates a need for blessings from God. And justly so.

You would think that our fellow-Americans would be willing to adjust their conduct, follow the divinely revealed will of the eternal God and prepare to receive His bountiful blessings. There is a limitless opportunity to receive what we all need from the Lord. A very important point here is that God can only dispense those blessings through His Son, Jesus Christ. It is written in ancient manuscripts that "all should honor the Son just as they honor the Father. He who does not honor the Son does not honor the Father who sent Him" (NKJV).

Millions of Americans fall into the category of expecting God's blessings, only if they are prepared to receive them. However, other people in the position of leadership in the U.S.A., whether it be politicans, the professional elite, those in entertainment or even leaders of certain so-called "Christian" churches and seminaries, are leading millions down the wrong path by their godless actions. As an example, in Atlanta, there are seminary professors who call themselves, "Christian atheists." That is an oxymoron of the worse kind.

How can we expect God to help people when they live according to the ways of God's archenemy, the Devil? Many complain about the numerous catastrophes in recent years, volcanos, floods, hurricanes, famine, to name a few and blame God for allowing them. Do we deserve any better?
OF COURSE NOT!

Most of the sins and transgressions condemned by God are being mindlessly practiced with no regrets: adultery, fornication, homosexuality, dishonesty, corruption, addiction to substances, murder, extortioners and idolatry, to name a few.

LET US NOT BE HYPOCRITES ASKING GOD FOR BLESSINGS WHEN WE ARE FLAUNTING SIN IN HIS FACE. Let us no longer sing the song or say the words until we are ready to repent and seek the Lord's face through Jesus Christ. PFFlyer

DO YOU HAVE AN OPINION?

Deep thought and reflective thinking are more necessary today than ever before. Some people just drift along, go with the flow, while others are keen and alert to follow current events and their ultimate influence in various realms.

A new and significant book has hit the bookshelves, entitled, "DO AS I SAY (NOT AS I DO)", written by the scholarly Peter Schweizer and his wife Rochelle and published by Doubleday.

Some say the "book shines a light on liberal hpocrisy." In fact, a book subtitle is "Profiles in Liberal Hypocrisy." That does not tell the whole story. Reactions to this book, written by a fellow Floridian, will be mixed because it underlines a constant hot topic: the controversy between CONSERVATIVES and LIBERALS.

Former successful literary productions by this capable couple include: "The Mouse Betrayed", a portrayal of the inner workings of Disney, Inc. and it was far from complimentary. Schweizer also wrote: "Reagan's War: The Epic Story of His Struggle and Final Triumph over Communism" and "The Bushes:Portrait of a Dynasty." All of his books are a MUST read. PFFlyer

BLOOD AND LOVE

I just came across a blog entitled as you see it above. There were many other blogs that referred to those two particular subjects.
Who wants to know about BLOOD AND LOVE? Do you really? And by that, I mean the blood that counts and the love that dominates. Have you ever heard of such a combination? They are the most powerful combination of elements, one concrete and one abstract that you will ever find.

Ancient manuscripts indicate that the life of the flesh is in the blood. And indeed, it is. With no blood, there is no life. The most valuable use of blood was when Jesus Christ shed His precious blood at Calvary almost 2,000 years ago. His offering and death had been foretold and explained many centuries before.

WELL, WHAT IS SO IMPORTANT ABOUT JESUS' BLOOD? Since the life of the flesh is in the blood and since He was at the origin of life when He and the Father created the universe and all life, the fact that Jesus died, being the only begotten Son, He was able to pay a ransom for the sins of all those who would believe in Him and ask for salvation.

LOVE - The other half of the proposition was manifested as never before by the Father when He was willing for His Son, God and Man, to suffer on the Cross outside the gates of ancient Jerusalem.

Have you taken advantage of this powerful BLOOD and that overpowering LOVE? If not, and if you want to find out how, leave a comment on this section of the blog. PFFlyer

ARE YOU CONCERNED ABOUT THE FUTURE?

Most people are! One of the aims of this blog is to talk about the future. There is a great deal we can know about it. Documents written centuries ago by those guided by divinely inspired prophets contain very precise details. When I use the word "divine" I point to the ONE TRUE GOD, otherwise known by Jehovah or Adonai. Many other meaniful names appear for Him in the manuscripts. I am not talking of Nostradamus or other so-called "prophets." The documents referred to have seen many of the details completely fulfilled.

A book is available to you entitled, "A Road Map to the Future." It was published in 2003 and has precise information gleaned from the ancient manuscripts, rather than the figments of the author's imagination or any other person. A picture of the book cover will appear here soon.
It is available internationally on www.amazon.com. It has already had two printings. Do not miss this opportunity. Consult this blog with your questions. PFFlyer

TRUTH

The search for truth is universal. There is the reality of Truth vs. error! and Truth vs. falsehood. The latter is a deliberate error. Some say "truth is relative!" Some say "truth is absolute!"

What is your opinion? Have you ever thought that for "truth" to be "truth", it must be absolute, otherwise "truth" is NOT "truth!" There can be no gray area if you are dealing with truth that is undeniably valid. If a statement or situation is mingled and adulterated with the slightest amount of wrong information, the result is not dependable. Practically speaking, then, the seeker risks to wallow around in doubt. Do you really want to know the TRUTH?

One of the worst conclusions a person can draw is that truth or one individual may not be truth for another. That is pure relativism and leads down the wrong path.

Truth is our concern in every aspect of human life and existence. In the realm of science, new information is constantly being added, thus making previous
experiments and experiences of somewhat less value. The new truth helps us to better understand what we already know. Certain laws of the universe have been discovered and understood. They stand firm. They cannot be changed.

Now, here is my major question! Have you discovered the TRUTH that is satisfying and which has the greatest possible effect on your present life and future? If not, here is your opportunity. No other truth can compete with the TRUTH I want to share with you. Write: fredrickf7@yahoo.com. PFFlyer

Shopping for a Good Blog?

Due to personal interest, I have consulted a number of the many blogs out there in our world! There is an enormous variety, both from the standpoint of style, purpose, and places or origin. Some are very artistic. Some are very plain in design. Some are frivolous and insignificant in "my view". but, hey!, fortunately we have the liberty to write what we want.
It is the intent of "NEWS AND VIEWS" to open up a forum of discussion, to stimulate critical thinking, to answer questions, or to help some become unconfused on a number of issues. PFFlyer can easily be reached by the space provided for comments, by those who are bloggers, or at: fredrickf7@yahoo.com

UNE AUTRE LANGUE

La majorité de mes blogs sera rédigée en anglais. Pourtant, j'aimerais, tout de même, trouver des correspondants de langue française. Puisque le français est parlé un peu partout dans le monde, ce serait intéressant de trouver des amis dans tous les coins de notre terre. Je ne suis pas philosophe de profession, mais j'aime discuter un grand nombre de sujets.
Pour traduire le nom de mon blog, on pourrait le rendre: LES NOUVELLES ET LES IDEES.
Qu'en pensez-vous? J'ai un grand nombre de textes à partager avec tous ceux qui on le courage de se lancer ainsi. A bientôt.
Je peux vous indiquer un blog administré par un collègue français à Lyon:

ARE YOU PATRIOTIC AS AN AMERICAN?

Are you interested in finding out what some people are saying about the United States and how some people are "screwing up" America?
Your curiosity is too strong to ignore such a phenomenon, I know. So, I would suggest that you obtain the new book entitled, "100 People Who Are Screwing Up America" by Bernard Goldberg, Harper Collins, 305 pp., a #1 New York Times bestseller. PFFlyer

YOU KNOW, I AM GLAD YOU ASKED!

You want to know why I sign my posts with the title, "PFFlyer." When I was a college professor, the students nicknamed me "PFFlyer." At the time, there was a shoe company which marketed its product under that name. I never really figured out why the young people dubbed me in that way, but that was part of the fun. It was perhaps due to the fact that my initials are PFF, and perhaps it was a good way to show appreciation for my teaching. PFFlyer

NEWS AND VIEWS

2005-09-16T07:38:00.000-07:00

The blog title speaks for itself. At the extreme, NEWS come as "good" or "bad," but news is sometimes in between the two extremes, and, therefore, less "earthshaking."

The emphasis on "news" in this blog will be good news. Everyone likes good news. Here you will be favored with much good news. However, we need to receive the bad news, deal with it, overcome it. One way is to let the good news blot out the bad.

The URL is: goodnewscenter.blogspot.com.

We will also include "VIEWS," in other words the opinions of different people. It is our desire to have a sort of forum. The blog system provides for contacting the maker of the blog and with an e-mail address, continuation of the dialogue would be easy. PFFlyer will express his views. How would you like to express yours? Access this blog often. It will be interesting. And, there will be some surprises.
