PSALM 137

PSALM 137
While in captivity, the Jews wept by the rivers of Babylon—Because of sorrow, they could not bear to sing the songs of Zion.
BY the rivers of Babylon, there we sat down, yea, we wept, when we remembered Zion We hanged our harps upon the willows in the midst thereof. For there they that carried us away captive required of us a song; and they that wasted us required of us mirth, saying, Sing us one of the songs of Zion. How shall we sing the LORD’s song in a strange land? If I forget thee, O Jerusalem, let my right hand forget her cunning. If I do not remember thee, let my tongue cleave to the roof of my mouth; if I prefer not Jerusalem above my chief joy.

Vegetarian Diet

Vegetarian Diet Shows Heart Benefits
Benefits to the heart were another positive aspect of the vegetarian lifestyle. Clearly demonstrated was a substantial decrease in blood pressure, cholesterol, and blood lipid (fat) levels. All of these factors point to a lower risk of heart disease. The researchers did issue a warning to vegetarians who might not receive enough omega-3 because fish is the best source for this nutrient. Although flax seeds and walnuts are a source of omega-3, the researchers are not certain vegetarians would receive enough from these foods.

Mosiah 4:19-22

Mosiah 4:19-22 For behold, are we not all beggars? Do we not all depend upon the same Being, even God, for all the substance which we have, for both food and raiment, and for gold, and for silver, and for all the riches which we have of every kind? And behold, even at this time, ye have been calling on his name, and begging for a remission of your sins. And has he suffered that ye have begged in vain? Nay; he has poured out his Spirit upon you, and has caused that your hearts should be filled with joy, and has caused that your mouths should be stopped that ye could not find utterance, so exceedingly great was your joy. And now, if God, who has created you, on whom you are dependent for your lives and for all that ye have and are, doth grant unto you whatsoever ye ask that is right, in faith, believing that ye shall receive, O then, how ye ought to impart of the substance that ye have one to another.And if ye judge the man who putteth up his petition to you for your substance that he perish not, and condemn him, how much more just will be your condemnation for withholding your substance, which doth not belong to you but to God, to whom also your life belongeth and yet ye put up no petition, nor repent of the thing which thou hast done.

In November 2000 Iran...

In November 2000, Iraq stopped accepting U.S. dollars for their oil.  Counted as a purely political move, Saddam Hussein switched the currency required to purchase Iraqi oil to the euro. 
Selling oil through the U.N. Oil for Food Program, Iraq converted all of its U.S. dollars in its U.N. account to the euro.  Shortly thereafter, Iraq converted $10 billion in their U.N. reserve fund to the euro.  By the end of 2000, Iraq had abandoned the U.S. dollar completely. Two months after the United States invaded Iraq, the Oil for Food Program was ended, the country's accounts were switch back to dollars, and oil began to be sold once again for U.S. dollars.  No longer could the world buy oil from Iraq with the euro.  Universal global dollar supremacy was restored.  It is interesting to note that the latest recession that the United States endured began and ended within the same timeframe as when Iraq was trading oil for euros.  Whether this is a coincidence or related, the American people may never know.

The Republican fisherman

The Republican fishermanA woman in a hot air balloon realized she was lost. She lowered her altitude and spotted a man in a boat below. She shouted to him, "Excuse me, can you help me? I promised a friend I would meet him an hour ago, but I don't know where I am." The man consulted his portable GPS and replied, "You're in a hot air balloon, approximately 30 feet above a ground elevation of 2346 feet above sea level. You are at 31 degrees, 14.97 minutes north latitude and 100 degrees, 49.09 minutes west longitude. She rolled her eyes and said, "You must be a Republican." "I am," replied the man. "How did you know?" "Well," answered the balloonist, "everything you told me is technically correct, but I have no idea what to do with your information, and I'm still lost. Frankly, you've not been much help to me."
 
The man smiled and responded, "You must be a Democrat." "I am,"
replied the  balloonist. "How did you know?" "Well," said the man,
"you don't know  where you are or where you're going. You've risen
to where you are,  due to a large quantity of hot air. You made a
promise that you have no idea how to keep, and you expect me to
solve your problem. You're in exactly the same position you were
in before we met, but, somehow, now it's my fault."
Have a great 2006!

The Fourth World shall end soon.

"The Fourth World shall end soon, and the Fifth World will begin. This the elders everywhere know. The Signs over many years have been fulfilled, and so few are left.
  • "This is the First Sign: We are told of the coming of the white-skinned men, like Pahana, but not living like Pahana men who took the land that was not theirs. And men who struck their enemies with thunder.
"This is the Second Sign: Our lands will see the coming of spinning wheels filled with voices. In his youth, my father saw this prophecy come true with his eyes -- the white men bringing their families in wagons across the prairies."
"This is the Third Sign: A strange beast like a buffalo but with great long horns, will overrun the land in large numbers. These White Feather saw with his eyes -- the coming of the white men's cattle."
"This is the Fourth Sign: The land will be crossed by snakes of iron."
"This is the Fifth Sign: The land shall be criss-crossed by a giant spider's web."
"This is the Sixth sign: The land shall be criss-crossed with rivers of stone that make pictures in the sun."
"This is the Seventh Sign: You will hear of the sea turning black, and many living things dying because of it."
"This is the Eight Sign: You will see many youth, who wear their hair long like my people, come and join the tribal nations, to learn their ways and wisdom.
"And this is the Ninth and Last Sign: You will hear of a dwelling-place in the heavens, above the earth, that shall fall with a great crash. It will appear as a blue star. Very soon after this, the ceremonies of my people will cease.
"These are the Signs that great destruction is coming. The world shall rock to and fro. The white man will battle against other people in other lands

The Fifth World

The Fifth World
The Emergence to the future Fifth World has begun. It is being made by the humble people of little nations, tribes, and racial minorities. "You can read this in the earth itself. Plant forms from previous worlds are beginning to spring up as seeds. This could start a new study of botany if people were wise enough to read them. The same kinds of seeds are being planted in the sky as stars. The same kinds of seeds are being planted in our hearts. All these are the same, depending how you look at them. That is what makes the Emergence to the next, Fifth World.

Hopi Prophecy



The end of all Hopi ceremonialism will come when a "Kachina" removes his mask during a dance in the plaza before uninitiated children [the general public]. For a while there will be no more ceremonies, no more faith. Then Oraibi will be rejuvenated with its faith and ceremonies, marking the start of a new cycle of Hopi life.
World War III will be started by those peoples who first revealed the light (the divine wisdom or intelligence) in the other old countries (India, China, Islamic Nations, Africa.)
The United States will be destroyed, land and people, by atomic bombs and radioactivity. Only the Hopis and their homeland will be preserved as an oasis to which refugees will flee. Bomb shelters are a fallacy. "It is only materialistic people who seek to make shelters. Those who are at peace in their hearts already are in the great shelter of life. There is no shelter for evil. Those who take no part in the making of world division by ideology are ready to resume life in another world, be they Black, White, Red, or Yellow race. They are all one, brothers."

About God


I will go back to the beginning before the world was, to show what kind of being God is. God himself was once as we are now, and is an exalted man, and sits enthroned in yonder heaven. That is the great secret...if...the great God who holds this world in its orbit...was to make himself visible...if you were to see him today, you would see him like a man in form--like yourselves in all the person, image, and very form as a man; For Adam was created in the very fashion, image, and likeness of God,...and walked, talked, and conversed with him as one man communes with another.

Joseph Smith the Prophet.

Idaho Falls LDS Temple

The Holy Temple

The Holy Temple was not just some magnificent building or synagogue rooted in Jerusalem's ancient Biblical past; it was an arena of cosmic themes; a place where man could meet with his Creator. This represents one of the most important concepts of Jewish belief: that man has the capacity to engage in a direct, constant, and fulfilling relationship with his Creator. It was the world's true spiritual center, and the medium for that unfolding relationship.

By the rivers of Babylon

By the rivers of Babylon, there we sat down, yea, we wept when weremembered Zion. We hung our harps upon the willows in the midstof it. For there those who carried us away captive required of usa song. And those who plundered us required of us mirth, saying,"Sing us one of the songs of Zion!"How shall we sing the Lord'ssong in a foreign land? If I forget you, O Jerusalem, let myright hand forget her skill! If I do not remember you, let mytongue cleave to the roof of my mouth - if I do not exaltJerusalem above my chief joy.(Psalm 137:1-6)

Railroad Bridge in Idaho Falls, Idaho

"I foretell the end from the beginning, from ancient times things not yet done." Isaiah 46:10 Scriptures are indispensable to all religions. They save religions from mutation and from extinction. That faith which has no gospel for its guidance gets lost in a series of transformations.

THE DELIBERATE DUMBING DOWN

THE DELIBERATE DUMBING DOWN OF AMERICA
Charlotte Iserbyt is to be greatly commended for having put together the most formidable and practical compilation of documentation describing the "deliberate dumbing down" of American children by their education system. Anyone interested in the truth will be shocked by the way American social engineers have systematically gone about destroying the intellect of millions of American children for the purpose of leading the American people into a socialist world government controlled by behavioral and social scientists.

it is they who we should fear

Yet it is they who we likely should fear - they who turn their backs on our Constitution; they who enforce acts that were never ratified by the American people, such as the Federal Reserve; they who sneak in bills that reduce our rights, such as COG's "Government Commission" and Rep. Brian Baird's H.J. Res 83 which would allow for U.S. House members to be appointed rather than elected by the American people. The Law of the Sea Treaty (LOST) is another act they want to ratify which would sanction "the UN to have control over 70% of the Earth's surface which would amount to the single largest transfer of American sovereignty to the United Nations in history" [APCalert; 6/14/04; American Policy Center: www.americanpolicy.org]. These are but a few of many worrisome rights being taken away from us by them - the grand domestic and international privileged and major players who have a plan for building more wealth and a new kingdom for themselves . . . only -- thus disregarding individuals and their rights.

In Government Is Not US

In Government Is Not 'Us' by Sheldon Richman (June 6, 2004), we see not only where our existence is headed, but also the support for my thesis in this commentary:
It won't do to argue that . . . we are the government. . . . They pass and enforce decrees telling us what we can and can't do with our lives and our property. . . . People want to come here because . . . there is still something left of the private life. . . . But [it] is not as secure as it once was. . . . There was a time when one did not worry that his house would be condemned and given to a real-estate developer because the planned shopping mall will raise more tax revenues for the local government. . . . We sing the praises of freedom . . . but freedom doesn't mean what it once meant. It used to mean personal autonomy, and self-ownership, but now it means little more than the vote.
Sheldon Richman is senior fellow at The Future of Freedom Foundation, and editor of The Freeman magazine and author of "'Ancient History': U.S. Conduct in the Middle East since World War II and the Folly of Intervention."   www.antiwar.com
