Matthew Chapter 19

Matthew 19
(New King James Version)

Jesus Teaches on Celibacy

11 But He said to them, “All cannot accept this saying, but only those to whom it has been given: 12 For there are eunuchs who were born thus from their mother’s womb, and there are eunuchs who were made eunuchs by men, and there are eunuchs who have made themselves eunuchs for the kingdom of heaven’s sake. He who is able to accept it, let him accept it.”

Jesus Blesses Little Children

13 Then little children were brought to Him that He might put His hands on them and pray, but the disciples rebuked them. 14 But Jesus said, “Let the little children come to Me, and do not forbid them; For the Kingdom of Heaven belongs to those who are like these children..” 15 And He laid His hands on them and departed from there.

Jesus Counsels the Rich Young Ruler

16 Now behold, one came and said to Him, “Good Teacher, what good thing shall I do that I may have eternal life?”

17 So He said to him, “Why do you call Me good? No one is good but One, that is, God. But if you want to enter into life, keep the commandments [God's Law].”18 He said to Him, “Which ones?”

Jesus said, “ ‘You shall not murder,’ ‘You shall not commit adultery,’ ‘You shall not steal,’ ‘You shall not bear false witness,’ 19 ‘Honor your father and your mother,’ and, ‘You shall love your neighbor as yourself.’”

20 The young man said to Him, “All these things I have kept from my youth. What do I still lack?”

21 (AMP) Jesus answered him, If you would be perfect [that is, have that spiritual maturity which accompanies self-sacrificing character], go and sell what you have and give to the poor, and you will have riches in heaven; and come, be My disciple [side with My party and follow Me].

22 (AMP) But when the young man heard this, he went away sad (grieved and in much distress), for he had great possessions.

23 (AMP) And Jesus said to His disciples, Truly I say to you, it will be difficult for a rich man to get into the kingdom of heaven. 24 (AMP) Again I tell you, it is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to go into the kingdom of heaven.

Allow This Word From God To Quench Your Thirst And Feed Your Soul; God Has Been Knocking On The Door Of Your Heart Let Him In; God LOVES You So MUCH

Please understand, God does NOT want to control you. If He did, he would NOT have given you FREE WILL. God wants you to come to Him on your own FREE WILL. God wants you to love Him with all your heart and soul because you want to and NOT because you are forced to. Life is a choice. God wants to give you FREEDOM. God wants you to be free from bondage and oppression, free from worry and fear, free from sickness and disease, free from poverty and lack, free from confusion and darkness. Choose LIFE over death. Choose LIGHT over darkness.

God wants to meet you RIGHT where you are. Let go, invite God to come live inside your heart and then hand everything, every burden you face over to God and let Him know that you can no longer do this on your own. God will take over and begin to transform your ENTIRE LIFE from the inside out. God will become your rock, your shelter and your protector. NOTHING compares to receiving God's LOVE into your spirit. When your old self starts to cry, the Holy Spirit literally embraces you and comforts you and fills you wil His peace. You will no longer be alone and you will no longer experience feelings of lonliness.

This is not about religion and this is not about joining a group. I merely want to encourage you to establish a personal relationship with your Source. Your personal relationship and your personal transformational experience with God are between you and God and NOBODY ELSE! Begin by talking to Him. Believe me when I tell you, God WILL find ways to answer you. The Gracious Hand of God is upon you. You are a child of the Most High God! Trust and Believe in Him.

Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. (Matthew 11:28)

The Holiness of God ~ WOW This Is An AMAZING Interpretation! I Have Been Left In AWE ~~~ PLEASE READ

Holiness of God
By Pastor Nick Bibile

One of the major differences between Christianity and other religions is that God of the Bible is infinitely holy. The Hebrew word, "to be holy" is quadash, it is derived from the root word qud, which means to cut or separate. God is absolutely separated and is above from all his creatures and he is exalted above in infinite majesty."Who among the gods is like you, O LORD ? Who is like you; majestic in holiness, awesome in glory" (Exodus 15:11) In fact some of the most vivid displays of Gods holiness is displayed in the Old Testament. One of the greatest passages is found in Isaiah chapter six.

HOLY, HOLY, HOLY IS THE LORD

Isaiah prophesied during the reign of four kings over a period of sixty years. One of the kings that lived during Isaiahs time was king Uzziah. He became a king when he was 16 years old and reigned the nation for 52 years. Now that is a pretty long time. Its like American people experiencing 13 presidents ruling in their 4 year terms. It was like saying, long live the king, as generations have experienced the rule of Uzziah. But the king died. When he died, apparently the entire nation was feeling a sense of panic and fear, as their leader is dead. Isaiah the prophet went to the temple of God, and he sees another king, an eternal King, sitting on his throne.

"In the year that king Uzziah died, I saw the Lord seated on a throne, high and exalted, and the train of his robe filled the temple." (Isaiah 6:1)

When you see the word Lord, here it refers to Adhonay in Hebrew meaning the sovereignty of God. But when you see the word LORD in capital, it refers to the name of God, Yahweh.

The human king is dead but the sovereign king of the Universe is alive, His Kingship is forever and it never ends. This is a picture of His majesty, His glory and power. The exalted one who became a servant. Yes, he is the one who became flesh. Apostle John said, "Isaiah said this because he saw Jesus glory and spoke about him." (John 12:41)

Isaiah 6:2 says, "Above him were seraphs, each with six wings, with two wings they covered their faces, with two they covered their feet, and with two they were flying."

These angels were created and designed to proclaim the holiness of God. They were flying with two wings above the throne of God. This is the exaltation of his throne. Then it says that they covered their feet with two wings. Why did they cover their feet? In Exodus chapter three we see how God appeared to Moses in a burning bush. God said to Moses, "Do not come any closer; take off your sandals, for the place where you are standing is holy ground." (Exodus 3:5) But this is just a normal place, where Moses is familiar with this area. Why is it that only now this spot suddenly became holy? Whenever Gods presence appears everything becomes sanctified. It was Gods presence that made the ground holy. When God descended in a fire to Mt. Sinai, prior to that he told the people to consecrate themselves. (Exodus 19) Here in Isaiah the angels cover their feet because of the presence of Gods holiness. Just imagine, if we see an angel, that would be awesome. But even the angels are covering their feet as Gods holiness brings his absolute majesty and glory.

Then it says with two wings they covered their face. Do you know why the angels cover their faces? In Exodus 33:18, Moses asked the Lord to show His glory. God said, "You cannot see my face, for no one may see me and live." (Exodus 33:20) It is absolutely impossible to see the infinite glory of His majesty, not even the angelic creatures, How awesome is His glory! Then God told Moses, "You may stand on a rock. When my glory passes by, I will put you in a cleft in the rock and cover you with my hand, until I passed by. Then I will remove my hand and you will see my back; but my face must not be seen." (Exodus 33:22-23) The God of the Universe is infinitely holy, even these angelic beings cannot see the full glory of Him.

Then in Isaiah 6:3, the angels were calling to one another:
"Holy, holy, holy is the LORD almighty; the whole earth is full of his glory."

This is the only time in the Bible an attribute of God being repeated three times. The Bible say that God is love, but not love, love, love. According to Jewish custom, when they wanted to emphasize a point they repeated it two times. Jesus said, "Truly, truly I say unto you" This mean it is absolutely truly what he was going to say. But here in Isaiah Gods holiness is repeated not to the second degree but to the third degree, which means he is infinitely holy. On the other hand the Antichrist is called with the number 666, repeated to the third degree of evil.

The holiness of God is somewhat different than all His other attributes, as God is holy in all His attributes. He is holy in His Goodness, holy in his Justice, holy in His Wrath, etc., He is majestic in His Holiness, because His name is Holy. In the past the name of a person reflects the character of that individual. Gods name is holy, that means all what he thinks and does is holy. "Our Father in heaven, hallowed be your name" (Matt. 6:9) "For this is what the high and lofty One says, who lives forever, whose name is holy; I live in high and holy place" (Isaiah 57:15)

The scribes who copied one manuscript to another, when it came to the name of God, they used another pen, and even if a king was passing by when he was writing the name of God, the scribe will not look at the king as the name of God is infinitely holy than anything else.

We can never fully understand the holiness of God. It is immeasurable. He is infinitely holy and the ten commandments reveal his holiness to mankind. Thats why no one can keep the commandments, we all fall short fall of His glory.

God is LOVE and LIGHT; evil is misery and darkness! Therefore, misery and darkness CANNOT EXIST where there is LOVE and LIGHT!


Definition:

Holy means the pure, loving nature of God, separate from evil. aggressively seeking to universalize itself: that this character inheres in places, times and institutions intimately associated with worship; and that it is to characterize human beings who have entered into personal relations with God.

Meaning:

To be holy means to be separate from evil. Therefore, we need to separate ourselves from evil, by not associating with evil, being found in a situation where one could get the idea of being evil. That doesn't mean to not have any friends that are not Christians, for even Jesus spent time with the social and religious outcasts of His day. When we associate with those people our behavior needs to demonstrate that we are different from the people or the evil things surrounding us at that given moment.

Scripture Support:

I Peter 1:16 - 25
Because it is written, Be ye holy; for I am holy.

I John 1:5
This then is the message which we have heard of him, and declare unto you, that God is light, and in him is no darkness at all.

Psalm 98:1
O sing unto the Lord a new song; for he hath done marvelous things: his right hand, and his holy arm, hath gotten him the victory.

Psalm 145:17
The Lord is righteous in all his ways, and holy in all his works.

I Samuel 2:2
There is none holy as the Lord: for there is none beside thee: neither is there any rock like our God.

Isaiah 6:3
And one cried unto another, and said, Holy, holy, holy, is the Lord of hosts: the whole earth is full of his glory.

John 17:11
And now I am no more in the world, but these are in the world, and I come to thee. Holy Father, keep through thine own name those whom thou hast given me, that they may be one, as we are.

Revelation 4:8
And the four beasts had each of them six wings about him; and they were full of eyes within: and they rest not day and night, saying, Holy, Holy, Holy, Lord God Almighty, which was, and is, and is to come.

Conclusion:

The holiness of God is directly related to His righteousness, God alone is to be worshipped. He alone is separate from evil, but He tells us to be holy like Him.

Application:

Since God never tells us to do something we are unable to do, I will commit myself to separate myself from evil and trust that He will enable me to do just that.

Do Not Forget The LORD Your God

Deuteronomy 8
(New International Version)

1 Be careful to follow every command I am giving you today, so that you may live and increase and may enter and possess the land that the LORD promised on oath to your forefathers. 2 Remember how the LORD your God led you all the way in the desert these forty years, to humble you and to test you in order to know what was in your heart, whether or not you would keep his commands. 3 He humbled you, causing you to hunger and then feeding you with manna, which neither you nor your fathers had known, to teach you that man does not live on bread alone but on every WORD that comes from the mouth of the LORD. 4 Your clothes did not wear out and your feet did not swell during these forty years. 5 Know then in your heart that as a man disciplines his son, so the LORD your God disciplines you.

6 Observe the commands of the LORD your God, walking in his ways and revering him. 7 For the LORD your God is bringing you into a good land—a land with streams and pools of water, with springs flowing in the valleys and hills; 8 a land with wheat and barley, vines and fig trees, pomegranates, olive oil and honey; 9 a land where bread will not be scarce and you will lack nothing; a land where the rocks are iron and you can dig copper out of the hills.

10 When you have eaten and are satisfied, praise the LORD your God for the good land he has given you. 11 Be careful that you do not forget the LORD your God, failing to observe his commands, his laws and his decrees that I am giving you this day. 12 Otherwise, when you eat and are satisfied, when you build fine houses and settle down, 13 and when your herds and flocks grow large and your silver and gold increase and all you have is multiplied, 14 then your heart will become proud and you will forget the LORD your God, who brought you out of Egypt, out of the land of slavery. 15 He led you through the vast and dreadful desert, that thirsty and waterless land, with its venomous snakes and scorpions. He brought you water out of hard rock. 16 He gave you manna to eat in the desert, something your fathers had never known, to humble and to test you so that in the end it might go well with you. 17 You may say to yourself, "My power and the strength of my hands have produced this wealth for me." 18 But remember the LORD your God, for it is he who gives you the ability to produce wealth, and so confirms his covenant, which he swore to your forefathers, as it is today.

19 If you ever forget the LORD your God and follow other gods and worship and bow down to them, I testify against you today that you will surely be destroyed. 20 Like the nations the LORD destroyed before you, so you will be destroyed for not obeying the LORD your God.

The Word of LIFE and Walking in the LIGHT

(New International Version)

The WORD of Life

1 That which was from the beginning, which we have heard, which we have seen with our eyes, which we have looked at and our hands have touched—this we proclaim concerning the Word of LIFE. 2 The life appeared; we have seen it and testify to it, and we proclaim to you the eternal life, which was with the Father and has appeared to us. 3 We proclaim to you what we have seen and heard, so that you also may have fellowship with us. And our fellowship is with the Father and with his Son, Jesus Christ. 4 We write this to make our joy complete.

Walking in the LIGHT

5 This is the message we have heard from him and declare to you: God is LIGHT; in him there is NO darkness at all. 6 If we claim to have fellowship with him yet walk in the darkness, we lie and do not live by the TRUTH. 7 But if we walk in the LIGHT, as he is in the LIGHT, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus, his Son, PURIFIES us from all sin.

8 If we claim to be without sin, we deceive ourselves and the truth is not in us. 9 If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just and will FORGIVE us our sins and PURIFY us from all unrighteousness. 10 If we claim we have not sinned, we make him out to be a liar and his word has no place in our lives.

Jesus (Yehshua) IS The Living Breathing WORD Of God Represented By The Holy Spirit That Comes To Live INSIDE Of YOU The Breath Of God ~ God IS HOLY

(King James Version)

1 In the beginning WAS THE WORD, and the Word WAS WITH God, and the Word WAS God.

2 The same was in the beginning with God.

3 All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made.

4 In him was LIFE; and the LIFE was the LIGHT of men.

5 And the LIGHT SHINETH in darkness; and the darkness comprehended IT NOT.

6 There was a man sent from God, whose name was John.

7 The same came for a witness, to bear witness of the LIGHT, that all men through him might believe.

8 He was not that Light, but was sent to bear witness of that LIGHT.

9 That was the TRUE LIGHT, which lighteth EVERY man that cometh into the world.

10 He was in the world, and the world was made by him, and the world knew him NOT.

11 He came unto his own, and HIS OWN received him NOT.

12 But as many as received him, to them gave he POWER to become the sons of God, even to them that BELIEVE on his name:

13 Which were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, BUT OF God.

14 And the WORD was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of GRACE and TRUTH.

15 John bare witness of him, and cried, saying, This was he of whom I spake, He that cometh after me is preferred before me: for he was before me.

16 And of his fulness have all we received, and grace for grace.

17 For the LAW was given by Moses, but GRACE and TRUTH CAME by Jesus Christ.

18 No man hath seen God at any time, the only begotten Son, which is in the bosom of the Father, he hath declared him.

The History of Creation

From The Book of Genesis

1 In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth. 2 The earth was WITHOUT form, and void; and darkness was on the face of the deep. And the (Holy) SPIRIT of God was hovering over the face of the waters.

3 Then God said, “Let there be LIGHT”; and there was light. 4 And God saw the light, that it was good; and God divided the light from the darkness. 5 God called the light Day, and the darkness He called Night. So the evening and the morning were the first day.

6 Then God said, “Let there be a firmament in the midst of the waters, and let it divide the waters from the waters.” 7 Thus God made the firmament, and divided the waters which were under the firmament from the waters which were above the firmament; and it was so. 8 And God called the firmament Heaven. So the evening and the morning were the second day. 9 Then God said, “Let the waters under the heavens be gathered together into one place, and let the dry land appear”; and it was so. 10 And God called the dry land Earth, and the gathering together of the waters He called Seas. And God saw that it was good.

11 Then God said, “Let the earth bring forth grass, the herb that yields seed, and the fruit tree that yields fruit according to its kind, whose seed is in itself, on the earth”; and it was so. 12 And the earth brought forth grass, the herb that yields seed according to its kind, and the tree that yields fruit, whose seed is in itself according to its kind. And God saw that it was good. 13 So the evening and the morning were the third day.

14 Then God said, “Let there be lights in the firmament of the heavens to divide the day from the night; and let them be for signs and seasons, and for days and years; 15 and let them be for lights in the firmament of the heavens to give light on the earth”; and it was so. 16 Then God made two great lights: the greater light to rule the day, and the lesser light to rule the night. He made the stars also. 17 God set them in the firmament of the heavens to give light on the earth, 18 and to rule over the day and over the night, and to divide the light from the darkness. And God saw that it was good. 19 So the evening and the morning were the fourth day.

20 Then God said, “Let the waters abound with an ABUNDANCE of LIVING CREATURES, and let birds fly above the earth across the face of the firmament of the heavens.” 21 So God created great sea creatures and every living thing that moves, with which the waters abounded, according to their kind, and every winged bird according to its kind. And God saw that it was good. 22 And God blessed them, saying, “Be fruitful and multiply, and fill the waters in the seas, and let birds multiply on the earth.” 23 So the evening and the morning were the fifth day.

24 Then God said, “Let the earth bring forth the living creature according to its kind: cattle and creeping thing and beast of the earth, each according to its kind”; and it was so. 25 And God made the beast of the earth according to its kind, cattle according to its kind, and everything that creeps on the earth according to its kind. And God saw that it was good.

26 Then God said, “Let Us make man in Our image, according to Our likeness; let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, over the birds of the air, and over the cattle, over all the earth and over every creeping thing that creeps on the earth.” 27 So God created man in His own image; in the image of God He created him; male and female He created them. 28 Then God blessed them, and God said to them, “Be fruitful and multiply; fill the earth and subdue it; have dominion over the fish of the sea, over the birds of the air, and over every living thing that moves on the earth.” 29 And God said, “See, I have given you every herb that yields seed which is on the face of all the earth, and every tree whose fruit yields seed; to you it shall be for food. 30 Also, to every beast of the earth, to every bird of the air, and to everything that creeps on the earth, in which there is life, I have given every green herb for food”; and it was so. 31 Then God saw everything that He had made, and indeed it was very good. So the evening and the morning were the sixth day.

1 Thus the heavens and the earth, and all the host of them, were finished. 2 And on the seventh day God ended His work which He had done, and He rested on the seventh day from all His work which He had done. 3 Then God blessed the seventh day and sanctified it, because in it He rested from all His work which God had created and made.

4 This is the history of the heavens and the earth when they were created, in the day that the LORD God made the earth and the heavens, 5 before any plant of the field was in the earth and before any herb of the field had grown. For the LORD God had not caused it to rain on the earth, and there was no man to till the ground; 6 but a mist went up from the earth and watered the whole face of the ground.

7 And the LORD God formed man of the DUST of the ground, and BREATHED into his nostrils the breath of LIFE; and man became a LIVING BEING.

Your Grace Is Enough ~ by Chris Tomlin

Your Grace Is Enough by Chris Tomlin

Great is Your faithfulness oh God

Your grace is enough
Heaven reaching down to us
Your grace is enough for me

For me

Indescribable ~ by Chris Tomlin

I love this song by Chris Tomlin! God is TRULY AMAZING! God is the Universe. The Universe lives and breathes in each and every one of us! The Universe expands and contracts. The Universe breathes in and breathes out. If the Universe is made up of Energy, then God is energy and the source of ALL LIVING things. Connect to His Infinite POWER outlet and allow God to live and breathe LIFE into you. Jesus (Yehshua) IS the CONDUIT to God's Source. Jesus (Yehshua) IS the LIVING BREATHING WORD of God, represented by the Holy Spirit that comes to LIVE INSIDE of you. God wants you to TRUST and BELIEVE in His WORD.

I also want you to think about this for a moment, God created us from the dust of the earth and when we die our bodies return to the dust of the earth. God breathed LIFE, His Spirit into us. God created ALL Living things on the earth. Therefore, wouldn't it make ABSOLUTE SENSE to respect ALL living things INCLUDING the EARTH. When God told us to take dominion over the earth and everything in it, God means for us to be GOOD SHEPHERDS, CARETAKERS! Not destroyers! Dominion means domain or supreme authority. Now I understand the word domain to mean HOME as in "This is my domain". Answers says the word domain means, "A territory over which rule or control is exercised."

UNI-VERSE = One Song

MeltingEarth created this great video interpretation of the song. I have taken the following from YouTube description from MeltingEarth to share with you.

The song is of course Chris Tomlin's version of Indescribable - and the lyrics are very literal (not very metaphorical - e.g. a river is a river, not freedom). i really tried to stretch the video story in new directions. Much of my inspiration is from Brian Green's Book "The Elegant Universe" (...if you can think of a more God-glorifying name for a book than that - let me know!!)... but also based on my own training. e.g. the cool looking formula's you see are "Maxwell's Equations", and they govern everything about light electricity and magnetism - or "electro-magnetic fields". I studied those four equations for two semesters in my undergrad engineering coursework, but didn't get a very good grade from my "fields" teacher.

Indescribable ~ by Chris Tomlin

From the highest of heights to the depths of the sea
Creation's revealing Your majesty
From the colors of fall to the fragrance of spring
EVERY CREATURE UNIQUE in the song that it sings
All exclaiming

Indescribable, uncontainable,
You placed the stars in the sky and You know them by name.
You are amazing God
All powerful, untameable,
Awestruck we fall to our knees as we HUMBLY proclaim
You are amazing God

Who has told every lightning bolt where it should go
Or seen heavenly storehouses laden with snow
Who imagined the sun and gives source to its LIGHT
Yet conceals it to bring us the coolness of night
NONE can fathom

Indescribable, uncontainable,
You placed the stars in the sky and You know them by name
You are AMAZING God
All powerful, untameable,
Awestruck we fall to our knees as we humbly proclaim
You are AMAZING God
You are AMAZING God

Indescribable, uncontainable,
You placed the stars in the sky and You know them by name.
You are AMAZING God
All powerful, untameable,
Awestruck we fall to our knees as we humbly proclaim
You are AMAZING God
Indescribable, uncontainable,
You placed the stars in the sky and You know them by name.
You are AMAZING God
Incomparable, unchangeable
You see the depths of my heart and You love me the same
You are AMAZING God
You are AMAZING God

So It ALL Culminates To This: The Descendents of Abraham's Two Sons Isaac and Ishmael. One Ordained By God And The Other Born Out Of Wedlock! WOW

I want to share the story of Abraham and his two sons Isaac and Ishmael. I first went to Wikipedia and looked up Abraham and some of the information was not entirely accurate. Somebody needs to update that information. I did take the following snipits from Wikipedia though to clarify why I am posting this information: "Abraham, a name which Genesis explains as meaning "father of many nations". Jews and Christians call him father of the people of Israel through his son Isaac by his wife Sarah. Jesus Christ (Yeshua) is a descendent of Isaac and Jacob (Israel). For Muslims, he is a prophet of Islam and the ancestor of Muhammad through his other son Ishmael born to him by Sarah's Egyptian maidservant Hagar."

I continued a search and stumbled upon this website called Keyway. I liked the way the information has been accurately portrayed. However, I was taken aback when I read that the Arabs say that Abraham was told to sacrifice Ishmael and NOT Isaac!?!? This is precisely where the conflict of interest begins. Please read the following:

Isaac and Ishmael
by Wayne Blank

Abraham
Abram was born in Ur of the Chaldees, located in the Tigris-Euphrates Valley region, in what is today Iraq. From Ur, Abram and his family moved to Haran, about 600 miles / 975 kilometers to the northwest. There, at the age of 75, he received his calling from God:

"Now The Lord said to Abram, "Go from your country and your kindred and your father's house to the land that I will show you. And I will make of you a great nation, and I will bless you, and make your name great, so that you will be a blessing. I will bless those who bless you, and him who curses you I will curse; and by you all the families of the earth shall bless themselves." (Genesis 12:1-3 RSV)

An important point about Abraham is that although all bloodline Jews of today are descended from him, Abraham himself was not a Jew. Abraham's son Isaac, had a son Jacob (who was renamed Israel), who had 12 sons (from whom came The Tribes Of Israel), one of which was Judah, from whom came the Jews. The first "Jew" was Judah, Abraham's great-grandson (see Hebrews). Both Jews and Arabs are equally descended from Abraham, but Abraham himself was neither "Jew" nor "Arab".

Isaac
Isaac was the only son of Abraham and Sarah, and the father of Esau and Jacob, who God renamed Israel. The patriarchs are often named together in both the Old Testament and New Testament e.g. when speaking to Moses, God said, "I am the God of your father, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob." (Exodus 3:6 RSV).

Isaac's birth came about from a miracle - Abraham was 100 years old when Isaac was born (Genesis 21:5), and Sarah, at age 90, had been unable to have children (Genesis 16:1, 17:17). As explained by God:

"Sarah your wife shall bear you a son, and you shall call his name Isaac. I will establish My covenant with him as an everlasting covenant for his descendants after him. As for Ishmael, I have heard you; behold, I will bless him and make him fruitful and multiply him exceedingly; he shall be the father of twelve princes, and I will make him a great nation." (Genesis 17:19-20 RSV).

Isaac was not Abraham's firstborn, or only, son. Fourteen years before, when Abraham was 86 (Genesis 16:16), Sarah (then called Sarai) had arranged for a child to be born to Abraham through her own Egyptian maidservant, Hagar. Ishmael was born from the arrangement (Genesis 16:1-4).

The promise did not however go through Ishmael because the covenant had already been made with Abraham, with a yet-unborn Isaac the designated heir, before Ishmael was conceived or born (Genesis 15:2-6). While God does not play favorites, He was also not bound to any other arrangements for children that Abraham and Sarah had taken upon themselves to bring about after the matter had been firmly decided by God.

Abraham's greatest test of obedience to God involved Isaac:

"Take your son, your only son [i.e. only son with his wife Sarah] Isaac, whom you love, and go to the land of Moriah, and offer him there as a burnt offering upon one of the mountains of which I shall tell you." (Genesis 22:2 RSV)

Abraham passed the test, while God stopped it before any actual harm to could come to Isaac:
"Do not lay your hand on the lad or do anything to him; for now I know that you fear God, seeing you have not withheld your son, your only son [i.e. only son with his wife Sarah], from Me." (Genesis 22:12 RSV).

Abraham had been willing to give up his son to God, just as God Himself would later give up His Own Son to a sacrifice that was allowed to happen. An interesting point is that the place where Abraham was sent to sacrifice Isaac, Mount Moriah, is today known as the Temple Mount in Jerusalem - Isaac (Isaac, not Ishmael, was a direct ancestor of the Messiah, Jesus Christ) would have been sacrificed very near the place that Jesus Christ was Crucified.

Ishmael
Ishmael, meaning God hears, was the son of Abraham and Hagar, the Egyptian maidservant of his wife Sarah. When Sarah had found herself not having children, she arranged to have a child with Abraham by Hagar acting as a surrogate mother (Genesis 16:1-4), even though God had specifically stated that a child (i.e. Isaac) would be born to Sarah in due time.

Ishmael was born at Mamre, when Abraham was 86, 11 years after Abraham's arrival in what would become the land of Israel (Genesis 16:3). He grew up to be a man of the desert wilderness, with a wild and hostile attitude toward people, exactly as God described him to his mother before he was born:

"Behold, you are with child, and shall bear a son; you shall call his name Ishmael; because The Lord has given heed to your affliction. He shall be a wild ass of a man, his hand against every man and every man's hand against him; and he shall dwell over against all his kinsmen." (Genesis 16:11-12 RSV).

When a feast was held to celebrate the weaning of Isaac, who was born 13 years later, Ishmael caused trouble by insulting and mocking his little brother (Genesis 21:8-9). After Sarah, who by then had come to dislike both Hagar and Ishmael, saw what he was doing, she said to Abraham "Cast out this slave woman with her son; for the son of this slave woman shall not be heir with my son Isaac." (Genesis 21:10 RSV)

Abraham opposed Sarah's demand - despite Ishmael's difficult personality, Abraham loved him and did not want to see him go. God however settled the matter:

"But God said to Abraham, "Be not displeased because of the lad and because of your slave woman; whatever Sarah says to you, do as she tells you, for through Isaac shall your descendants be named. And I will make a nation of the son of the slave woman also, because he is your offspring." (Genesis 21:12-13 RSV)

Hagar and Ishmael were sent away, but they were not abandoned. God appeared and spoke to Hagar, assuring her that He would watch over them and see them prosper (Genesis 21:17-19). "And God was with the lad, and he grew up; he lived in the wilderness, and became an expert with the bow. He lived in the wilderness of Paran; and his mother took a wife for him from the land of Egypt" (Genesis 21:20-21 RSV).

Muslim Population in Global Statistics And Insight Into The Worldwide Islamic State Promotion


I have ONLY typed a few of the countries listed. There are far too many countries for me to list in one post. Please click HERE to read the entire list! What I have provided after the statistics came from the same Islamic World website. It will give you some more INSIGHT into the MINDSET that appears to be prevailing throughout the world. This website is ALSO promoting A Worldwide Islamic State!

For those of you who don't know the origins of Islam, the Prophet Muhammad was visited by the Angel Gabriel. I have taken the following information from Wikipedia, " Muhammad is the founder of the religion of Islam and is regarded by Muslims as a messenger and prophet of God (Arabic: الله‎ Allāh), the last and the greatest law-bearer in a series of prophets. Muslims consider him the restorer of the uncorrupted original monotheistic faith (islām) of Adam, Noah, Abraham, Moses, Jesus and other prophets. He was also active as a diplomat, merchant, philosopher, orator, legislator, reformer, military general, and, according to Muslim belief, an agent of divine action. At some point Muhammad adopted the practice of meditating alone for several weeks every year in a cave on Mount Hira near Mecca. Islamic tradition holds that during one of his visits to Mount Hira, the angel Gabriel appeared to him in the year 610. According to Muslim tradition, Muhammad himself was a Hanif and one of the descendants of Ishmael, son of Abraham."

The Qur’an clearly and directly asks all human beings to surrender to God (Allah) in complete submission and accept His guidance in every field of activity. “Oh you who believe! Enter into Islam fully and whole-heartedly, and follow not the footsteps of Satan, for he is to you an avowed enemy,”(2:208). Because Islam is a complete way of life this Divine Guidance is for all matters private and public, political and economic, social and cultural, moral and legal.

In the Godless secular nations they require a separation of religion and state. Politics is to be made free from religious influence. In Islam politics is a necessary element of the religious domain. Allah has told us He is to be the sole determiner of what is right and lawful. “Command is for none but God; He has commanded that you obey none but Him – that is the right path,”(12:40). And, “If any do fail to establish and rule by what God has revealed, they are the unbelievers, the unjust or the evil doers,”(5:44,45,47)

What has a secular political system given the Western world? Admittedly, it has allowed them to gain great wealth, power and technological expertise; but, at what expense? Their secularism has brought with it skepticism in thought, confusion in values, expediency in standards, vulgarity in behaviour, and opportunism in diplomacy. Modern man has learned to fly through the air like a bird and swim through the oceans like a fish, but he has failed to learn how to live on the Earth like a human being.

The political system in Islam is to help those it governs be successful in the practice of a right Islamic way of life. “And grant from Thee a ruling authority as an aid for me,”(17:80). An Islamic world society cannot have a secular political system. For the Islamic world to exist there must be an Islamic State.

It is not difficult to define an Islamic State. An Islamic State is one, which opts to conduct its affairs in accordance with the revealed guidance of Islam, which accepts the sovereignty of God in all matters, and devotes its efforts and resources to ensuring the existence of a right society living in accordance with the Will of God.

Van in Haleigh Cummings Investigation That Was In Misty Croslin's Possession The Night Haleigh Disappeared!

Does this van belongs to Chelsey Croslin or Misty Croslin? Chelsey is Misty Croslin's sister! The van was in Misty Croslin's possession the night 5 year old Haleigh Cummings disappeared. Misty does NOT even have a driver's license!?!? How could she possibly OWN a van. She shouldn't even be driving it!!! CBS47 says the van belongs to the Croslin family, but if you pay attention to Misty's frantic call to her sister she refers to the van as "my van". Ronald probably bought the van for Misty and registered it in another Croslin family members name. So techniquely the police would have to return the van to its registered owner being Chelsey! Plus, Misty has already admitted to driving Haleigh to school when Ronald was too tired to wake up. I posted this admission earlier this week from Art Harris impromptu interview with Misty.

Come on Satsuma police, it has been over a month and you have ALL of this evidence pointing directly at Misty and Ronald! Please step up to the plate and don't make yourselves appear like MAYBERRY cops on National TV! It's been reported that you have been using Ronald Cummings as your snitch in exchange for releasing him after every criminal offense and NOT having to serve a sentence. You need to do what's RIGHT and give this little 5 year old child JUSTICE! Even if it means losing your so-called SNITCH! Oh and I should also mention the whole nation now knows that Ronald Cummings mother, Teresa Neves works as a dispatcher for Alachua County Sherrif's office. Therefore, if you are botching up this MURDER to protect either of them your heads will be on the butcher block! The NATION is watching how you handle this case!

Please click HERE to read the ENTIRE actual police report filed on 02/10/09 at 3:50am for Haleigh Cummings. Very detailed report! OMG, this report is a MUST READ! Both Misty and Ronald have denied that he referred to her as his "Dumb bitch girlfriend." Well, it's documented in this report! Plus, Misty tells the police officer that both the children were in bed WITH HER when she went to sleep at 10pm and woke up JUST BEFORE 3am to get WATER!!!! I have heard her say repeatedly when asked what time she woke up, she says 3am and she didn't know the exact time but remembers seeing a 3 on the clock! One last thing Ronald told the police officer that he had a 9mm Baretta which he OWNED inside of his residence?!?! I thought criminals were not allowed to have guns LEGALLY of course!

Chelsey Croslin made the following statement in this video:

The day that Haleigh was missing everybody was looking for her later that night she called me crying she said Chelsey please tell me you're the one that put the scratch in my van. And I started crying and I told her there is no way that I put the scratch on her van.

The reporter goes on to say:

This scratch wasn't made by Chelsey Croslin. Also, the headlight was cracked and the van was moved from the spot Croslin parked it. Her only explanation is that a family member staying with them took the van the night Haleigh was taken.

Chelsey: You know I'm not accusing anybody but um you know it's just me being a mom and believing what I believe and everything piecing together I almost feel like I might know who it is.

Obama Wants More Muslims In His Administration, And To Work Closely With Muslim Community In U.S.!!!

Obama wants more Muslims in his Administration, and to work closely with Muslim community in U.S.

But no worries: his list of potential Muslim appointees has been "carefully vetted." How carefully? We can get a hint of the answer from the involvement of Congressman Keith Ellison (D-MN). Congressman Ellison recently made the Hajj, the pilgrimage to Mecca that is one of the five pillars of Islam. The Muslim American Society paid for his Hajj. And what is the Muslim American Society? The Muslim Brotherhood.

"In recent years, the U.S. Brotherhood operated under the name Muslim American Society, according to documents and interviews. One of the nation's major Islamic groups, it was incorporated in Illinois in 1993 after a contentious debate among Brotherhood members." -- Chicago Tribune, 2004.

And who is the Muslim Brotherhood? The Muslim Brotherhood "must understand that their work in America is a kind of grand Jihad in eliminating and destroying the Western civilization from within and "sabotaging" its miserable house by their hands and the hands of the believers so that it is eliminated and God's religion is made victorious over all other religions." -- "An Explanatory Memorandum on the General Strategic Goal for the Brotherhood in North America," by Mohamed Akram, May 19, 1991.

Imagine if a conservative Congressman had taken a trip that had been paid for by a Christian group that was, according to one of its own documents, dedicated to "eliminating and destroying the Western civilization from within and 'sabotaging' its miserable house" so that Christian law would replace the U.S. Constitution. I expect we would hear more of an outcry than we ever heard about Ellison's Hajj.

"Carefully vetted"!

"Obama gets list of top Muslim Americans," from the Denver Post, March 27 (thanks to Pamela):

CHICAGO — In a bid to get more Muslim Americans working in the Obama administration, a book with resumes of 45 of the nation's most qualified — Ivy League grads, Fortune 500 executives and public servants, all carefully vetted — has been submitted to the White House.

The effort, driven by community leaders and others, including U.S. Rep. Keith Ellison, D-Minn., was bumped up two weeks because White House officials heard about the venture, said J. Saleh Williams, program coordinator for the Congressional Muslim Staffers Association, who sifted through more than 300 names.

"It was mostly under the radar," Williams said. "We thought it would put (the president) in a precarious position. We didn't know how closely he wanted to appear to be working with the Muslim American community."

MUST SEE VIDEO: Obama Voter Going Anti-Obama! WOW I Am Blown Away EYES Are Opening!

Nothing ORIGINAL Here! President Obama's Afghan Speech Yesterday ALMOST Identical To Former President Bush's War On Terror Speech in 2001!!!



What a joke! One of my readers emailed me the link to this video that aired yesterday on Hannity's America. I just watched it and all I have to say is KUDOS to you for putting this comparison together! BRILLIANT JOB! I have typed a transcript below for my International readers who need to use Babel Fish to translate. After typing this it made me realize that the men behind the curtain, you know the REAL power's that be are moving quickly to achieve their ultimate agenda. Our country is on the verge of economic collapse and Washington is concerned about securing other countries? What about focusing your attention on the TERRORIST that are already within our borders that are American citizens trafficing drugs to gangs and pimps? Or the Radical Islamic Extremist that have already made it through our borders undetected that are living amongst us? These extremist have been actively recruiting members here in our country!

How about securing our north/south borders and east/west ports?! Why isn't our government improving and updating the FBI, INS, Port authority's to current times? Didn't we even create another federal agency called Homeland Security? There are so many damn agencies doing the same thing, criss crossing each other it's sickening! This is federal waste! Okay, I just did some research and found out the following from Cornell University Law School:

Post-9/11 Reform
On March 1, 2003, the Department of Homeland Security opened, replacing the INS. The Bush Administration had designed the Department of Homeland Security to foster increased intelligence sharing and dialogue between agencies responsible for responding to domestic emergencies, such as natural disasters and domestic terrorism. Within the Department, three different agencies - U.S. Customs and Border Enforcement (CBE), U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS), and U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) - now handle the duties formerly held by the INS. Currently, the CBE handles the INS's border patrol duties, the USCIS handles the INS's naturalization, asylum, and permanent residence functions, and the ICE handles the INS's deportation, intelligence, and investigatory functions.

I honestly don't care if you call me whatever you want. I am a reasonista! Haha, I just came up with that word. I have never ever taken our politicians words at face value. I have always paid attention to their actions, past and present. Learn to use your reasoning mind. God blessed you with a brain. Please start using it!

*************************************************************

Hannity: Earlier today with his national security team by his side, unveiled what he called a NEW strategy for fighting the war on Afghanistan. But he ended up sounding like somebody else I know. Let's take a look.

Bush: Protecting America from another attack is the most important responsibility of the Federal Government. It's the most solemn obligation that a President undertakes.

Obama: As President my greatest responsibility is to protect the American people.

Bush: This is not just America's fight and what is at stakes is not just America's freedom. This is the World's fight.

Obama: This is not simply an American problem. Far from it. The safety of people around the World is at stake.

Bush: Our offensive against the terrorists includes: Far more than military might.

Obama: A campaign against extremism will not succeed with bullets or bombs alone.

Bush: Afghanistan success is critical to the security of America and our partners in the free World.

Obama: What's at stake at this time is not just our own security, it's the very idea that free nations can come together on behalf of our common security.

Bush: There will be difficult moments in the work ahead, but we can be confident in the outcome.

Obama: So understand the road ahead will be long, and there will be difficult days ahead.

Los Angeles Police Dept. South East L.A. Newsletter: Crime Trends, Quality of Life Issues, Crime Prevention Tips!

My community created a neighborhood watch that encompasses a two block radius almost 10 years ago. We were prompted to take action when two of our neighbors became victims of home invasion robberies. I should note that I live in the suburbs and not an inner city. However, I cannot stress enough how important it is for communities to GET INVOLVED in protecting their families and homes from all sorts of PREDATORS! Everyone in our neighborhood watch keeps each other posted regarding incidents and peculiar people roaming our neighborhood using Yahoo groups. We also find time to chat when we see each other outside. Get to know your neighbors and the local police! I hope that my neighborhood watch story below helps to encourage you to GET MORE INVOLVED with your neighbors.

Our neighborhood watch works closely with our local police station and our city counsel person. Some of my neighbors including myself have volunteered our time to keep our area clean by removing trash that the city neglects. We help pick up the slack, not because we're force to but because we want to; our community IS AN EXTENSION of our home. If you don't care about your neighborhood then why should the THUGS?!? One of my neighhbors pulls his trash bin two blocks to transfer the trash from an overflowing bus stop wastecan into his own. Another neighbor and I pick up the trash thrown over the fence in a city storage area under a freeway overpass. We all wear gloves of course. All of our neighbors including the blocks not associated with our group are on CONSTANT graffiti alert! As soon as anyone sees graffiti we all call 311 or go to the Los Angeles County graffiti removal website to report the location. The city comes out within two days and removes the graffiti.

Make sure all of the street lamps are brightly lit. If not, you can dial 311 and have the lighbulbs replaced. You can also purchase a wireless micro video camera to see what's happening outside without having to leave your home. They are not expensive and are well worth your piece of mind. The majority of my neighbors work in the entertainment industry in one form or another and are up late. Their unique schedule has allowed some of my neighbors to volunteer patrol between the hours of 2:00am and 5:00am when ALL of the SCUM prefers to do their dirty work. I am a night owl too and pitch in every now and then. Kind of like a vigilante watch! And boy do they have stories of preventing crime in our neighborhood! I am grateful to have them as my neighbors. This is called SAFETY in numbers!

I was looking for a specific story and stumbled upon this Southeast Los Angeles Community Newsletter. I read the entire webpage and I highly recommend you do the same. It will help you understand what our police officers battle everyday on the streets to protect and serve us. Yes, I know there are corrupt and racist cops out there. Just like CEO's and Politicians and Businesspeople. But don't paint the ENTIRE police force as boogeymen because of those bad apples. The police should NOT be feared unless of course you are committing a CRIME! I have posted a snipit below from the Southeast Community Newsletter. Please click HERE to visit the LAPD website to read more.

Haleigh Cummings Father With New Child Bride At The County Fair This Past Weekend And SPENT $1,000 Of Donation $ For FUN!

Geraldo Rivera I heard yesterday that you were going to be reporting on 5 year old Haleigh Cummings' disappearance this evening. She hasn't been getting anymore media coverage ever since her father Ronald Cummings married Misty Croslin, the last person to ever see Haleigh. Geraldo, I hope you are able to look into and report on Ronald Cummings' misusing the donated money for his benefit instead of using it to help search for Haleigh. He has shown no genuine signs of a parent grieving for his missing child. He knows Haleigh is dead. He has already made peace within himself knowing she is with God. After Haleigh's disappearance Ronald even put a DECAL on the back of his truck that reads, "Only God Can Judge Me."

Also, Ronald Cummings has a HUGE rap sheet, arrested 14 times for drug possession of marijuana, meth, cocaine, heroin and GHB. The nerve of Ronald to tell you Geraldo that he NEVER did drugs and does not do drugs! Another thing he told you Geraldo was that he NEVER EVER hit Haleigh only on the behind like DCFS requires. However, when those bruised photos of Haleigh and her little brother Jr. were released, Ronald now admits to using a stick on the children. ENOUGH TO LEAVE BRUISES?!? One last note, Geraldo can you PLEASE look into Haleigh Cummings school attendence record, the report shows her missing 21 days. That's EXCESSIVE absenses!

This low life piece of scum, sorry pathetic excuse for a father needs to be EXPOSED on National Television for his obnoxious behavior! Ronald Cummings and his new child bride MIsty Croslin are GUILTY for Haleigh Cummings' disappearance. I have taken the liberty to borrow the following four comments from the Art Harris website. That is where I have been getting updates and blogging lately. Haleigh's body needs to be recovered. That is where you are going to find the evidence needed to NAIL these TWO SOB's!

This is reference to #56. Just a little insight and you can check out these facts. He went to the kangaroo express and emptied the donations on the counter and PAID for cigs, beer, and $50.00 in lottery tickets and the elderly man behind him got angry and stated he would not donate another penny!!!!!! Check with Chilis restaurant when he refused to pay for the food he ate; just because he is Ron Cummings! The Manager told him he did not care who he was!! I BELIEVE THE POLICE WAS CALLED ON THIS INCIDENT!! Go to the pawn shop where he purchased Mistys’ rings and here the story the lady there would tell you. Go to the Cheyenne Saloon where he was told he could no longer take the donations from there because he was mis-using the funds and now would be given to the Haliegh-Bug Foundation. These are actual facts not mistruths!

I just watched Nancy Grace tonight and once again she was all over Cyrstal’s atty. CNN sure isn’t fair and balanced Nancy Grace has it in for Cyrstal and for the life of me I don’t know why. Ronald is a known abuser and drug user (arrested 9 times) & would probably be in jail if mommy didn’t work for a judge. I don’t really think he gives a flying flip about either of those children, all along it’s been about control. He did get Cyrstal to come back 2 or 3 times, he gets child support, he gets young girls to look after them and he gets $2500 for each child from the goverment every year in tax rebates.

From what I’ve read here he’s running around town and acting like a fool, who can go spend $1000 at the fair? Where did that money come from. I hope people aren’t still sending for the Haleigh fund because that’s what he using, he even went into the local Citgo and emptied the jar for Haleigh and bought beer and cigerettes, right in front of everyone. What nerve. I just pray that Cyrstal gets Jr. and NG gets a CLUE.

OMG! Well I totally agree with you both case_watcher! Get this one, the getting married thing just throwed me. But tonite what I saw put the icing on the cake with me. I was at the fair with my grandchild and family and I see Ron and Misty on the midway laughing and then they get on a ride with Junior (Haleighs Brother) and start making out. People stared taking pics and stared with disbeief. I know 1 thing I wouldn’t be at any fair when my little angel is missing. I said to my husband, he probably is going to say, ”I took Junior to the fair to keep his mind off Haleigh. Then about 9pm we were leaving and I saw them another time without Junior. Then with another couple just laughing as if they were having the time of their lives. I guess Ronald’s going to say ”UMMM This is what Haliegh would’ve wanted" (YEAH RIGHT)! Im so sick of his crap! I'm starting to think that they both are partners in this whole thing!

Ronald & Misty, didn’t show a speck of tear, Saturday evening, 03-21-09 at the fair….BUT mother Crystal was preparing for a cookout, to thank the community on Sunday!! Seems to me, Crystal, has Haleigh put first…unlike her father, marrying Misty, going out getting tattoos, going to the fair….hmmmm Kathy does that sound like Ronald is putting Haleigh first??? As for the Susan Smith case…Crystal is nothing like she was! As a native from SC, I saw first hand the fakeness of Susan Smith! Crystal is doing wonderful, & she has thousands of supporters….maybe she isn’t shedding tears, because she has moved on & not focusing on herself & loss, BUT focusing on finding Haleigh!!!!!!!! Maybe, she don’t choose to get on national T.V. & focusing on HER loss… BUT on FINDING Haleigh!!!

HBO Pimp Series Set in Oakland: TBA Meaning "To Be Announced"!

HBO Pimp Series Set in Oakland
Chris Thompson
December 22, 2008

We just heard about the new HBO series, "Gentlemen of Leisure," over the weekend, and are awfully intrigued. The show will feature a fortysomething pimp trying to get out of the game, but the allure of the life keeps sucking him back in. And yes, it's set in Oakland. Now, the Trib reports, Mayor Ron Dellums is afraid that the series will present Oakland as, um, a hotbed of crime and prostitution. "The people of Oakland have come too far to have our city's name trampled upon in the name of entertainment," Dellums chief of staff David Chai told the Trib. And while many people hope that the show will treat Oakland with the same complexity as The Wire did with respect to Baltimore, at least one blogger, OakBook founder Alex Gronke, is ambivalent about the enterprise.

Honestly, we can't figure out why. For one thing, neither Dellums nor any of the other critics have seen the scripts or have any way of knowing how the series will characterize Oakland. But let's say it plays up all the most lurid aspects of the city, without David Simon's depth of vision. So what? With a homicide rate on track to at least equal last year's 127 murders, and a terrible prostitution problem that spawned the city's asset forfeiture laws, is anyone seriously going to deny that crime is one of the defining features of the city right now? Does anyone really expect television producers to focus on how pretty Lake Merritt is or something? When your city is the FIFTH MOST crime-ridden in America, people notice. And some people make TV shows about it. There's only one reason to dislike the new HBO series: if it sucks. Otherwise, get used to it.

Compliments of TV.com

Originally on: HBO
Status: New Series
Premiered: TBA
Show Categories: Drama

Oakland, Calif., is the setting for this HBO drama project about an old school pimp looking to retire from the ever-changing prostitution industry. Breaking out of the daily grind proves to be a lot harder than he originally thought though, as he endures power struggles and an aching financial need. In a manner described as The Godfather meets pimping, this HBO project is set to contain much drama in the form of gun violence, drugs, and thievery.

FBI Round-up Nets Prostitution Ring Suspects In Washtenaw, Wayne and Oakland Counties

OAKLAND Crimespotting website give us an up to the minute report of the arrest in this county alone. Pimping and prostititution are overwhelming prevalent in Oakland. I just watched an MSNBC documentary regarding sex slaves and teen trade in Oakland. I could not find a video to post for your viewing. However, I found a recent article of a recent FBI sting across America! This is a very serious issue folks and really needs to be addressed. Teenagers are kidnapped and forced to become sex slaves by these pimps!

Why aren't those Oakland protestors I posted yesterday OUTRAGED about the PIMPS and TEENAGE SEX SLAVES in their city??? Or why aren't they OUTRAGED about the drug dealers and gang bangers? Could it be because this is their bread and butter? Or perhaps their friends or family? Did it ever occur to these Oakland protesters that there are so many cops patrolling Oakland because of the HIGH CRIME RATE, 5th in the nation?!?! Plus, Oakland is predominately African American. If the police are making countless of arrest daily, it would ONLY make SENSE that the criminals they are arresting would be African Americans because Oakland is predominantly African American. Right? If Oakland were predominantly White and ONLY African Americans were being arrested then YES that would signal a red flag and an investigation. But this is NOT the case in Oakland where you are protesting. You are retaliating against the police, even killing them so that YOU can maintain the LIFESTYLE you have become accustomed to without any disruption!!!

One last note, did it ever occur to you that there are NOT enough African Americans who enter the police academy to level the playing field?! If Oakland would recruit more African American police officers, what would your argument be when the African American criminals are being arrested by African American police officers??? None, because the TRUTH about your organization's motives would then be revealed. You don't care about the DECENT hard working citizens in your community. You only care about defending the criminals terrorizing these citizens and you're using the race card to cloak the real issue! Do you think a "Brother" as you put it is NOT going to arrest a "Brother" because he's black? The same still applies, you commit a crime you MUST do the TIME! They will STILL uphold the law and you will come out looking like idiots. By the way, the colonialism term you used has also been frequently used by the African MUSLIM nations such as SUDAN, SOMALIA and KENYA! Does everybody see the connection.

Authorities found three juveniles and arrested 31 people in Washtenaw, Wayne and Oakland counties during a national initiative aimed at taking down prostitution rings, the FBI announced Monday.

The initiative ran from Thursday through Saturday and was the third such effort nationwide, the FBI said. The most recent effort marked the first time the Ann Arbor Police Department and Washtenaw County Sheriff's Department participated, said Sandra Berchtold, a spokeswoman for the Detroit office of the FBI.

Berchtold said Monday that she could not reveal where the arrests took place or where the juveniles were found. She said she also could not discuss how much of the case was connected to Washtenaw County.

Ann Arbor police said Monday that they assisted in locating two suspects on the city's south side. The Washtenaw County Sheriff's Department did not return calls.

The effort, dubbed Operation Cross Country III, took place in 29 cities across the country and resulted in the recovery of 48 juveniles and 571 arrests, the FBI said. In Michigan, one of those under arrest was a ringleader or "pimp," the FBI said.

Berchtold said the people arrested would likely be prosecuted at the state level.

The FBI said in a press release that many prostitution rings are sophisticated and operate in multiple states, relying on the Internet and other electronic media to advertise and solicit customers. In some cases, juveniles are coerced or forced into working for pimps or madams, and are relocated to areas where they know no one, the FBI said.

Setting the Record Straight

I would like to set the record straight. I am not a member of PETA. and I am not a vegetarian. Some may say that I am a hypocrite because I eat meat. My response to this crowd is I have no shame in saying I am a carnivore. I was raised on steak and potatoes and I happily obliged my mother in my consumption of her meals. I do however respect ALL living things. I believe in the fair and ethical treatment of animals and they deserve to be respected. Most especially if we plan to consume them later. It is the least we can do!

Back in the day, animals were raised on farms. Every animal group they raised had their very own living area; the chickens, the pigs, the cows, the sheep, etc. The problems these days is greed. Yes, I understand consumption has gone up due to the population explosion worldwide. Nevertheless, the process in which the animals we consume has been taken over by factory breeding supposedly to meet this demand. It is sickening to witness the living conditions these animals have to endure for our sake. It does not have to be this way. Thank goodness for the few remaining farmers who maintain the fair and ethical treatment of their farm animals. I would also like to say thank you to The Humane Society of the United States (HSUS) undercover volunteer that exposed the atrocious treatment of downer cows at a slaughterhouse here in Los Angeles. Because of HSUS efforts and many who signed the petition a law was successfully passed to prevent companies from committing malpractice.

Waste was never a thought for every indigenous culture around the world. When the life of a buffalo was taken for the sake of the tribe, everything on that buffalo was used and the meat that wasn't consumed at that moment was stored for the winter. These indigenous cultures understood and respected the natural order of all living things. The tribes didn't go and kill a dozen buffalos so they can market the parts to other tribes. The problem with our society today is people live to eat instead of eating to live and take MORE than their share for profits sake at whatever cost and whoever's expense ERGO atrocious treatment of animals and the extinction of animals.

Let me give you a good example, shark finning! The Chinese fishermen capture sharks with spears, pull them into their boats and CUT OFF their FINS. Afterwards, they dump the sharks body back into the ocean to die. They don't even have the DECENCY to kill the shark before finning them. The shark either bleeds to death in the ocean or drowns to death without their fins. The Chinese fishermen don't even bother considering marketing the shark meat. Their logic and reasoning is their boats only have enough room for FIN CARGO and NOT the entire shark. THAT'S WASTE IN ACTION! For those of you who have never heard about shark finning, the chinese culture has made SHARK FIN SOUP a popular delicacy! Just ONE bowl of shark fin soup cost $200. Wikipedia states, "As a luxury item, the dish is also considered a symbol of wealth and prestige in Chinese culture." The Sea Shepherd Conservation Society estimates 100 MILLION sharks are finned and left to drown in the ocean every year! Sharks are a vital player in the ocean food chain. Sharks are on the verge of extinction. If this very important species disappears, who knows what the end result will be for us!

Another example of senseless killing and waste I would like to share with you is the elephant slaughter for thier tusk! Poachers in Africa, India and China will kill as many male elephants as they can just to remove their ivory tusk for trade. The elephants huge body is just left there to rot. According to the Internationl Fund for Animal Welfare (IFAW), "Following decades of unrelenting slaughter of elephants for their ivory, the ivory trade was banned in 1989 by the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species (CITES) in response to international pressure from the conservation community, including IFAW. Yet, in 1997, CITES agreed to partially lift the ban, down-listing the status of elephants in Botswana, Zimbabwe and Namibia so that those countries could export ivory stockpiles in a one-time sale to Japan."

One final note for those of you who love to hunt and kill wild animals. When I was a kid my family used to go up to the creek and create a makeshift shooting range using aluminum cans for targets. As I grew older we became more creative hanging items on tree limbs. We had loads of fun sharpening our shooting skills. Why do you find it necessary to use wild animals for target practice? I seriously would like to know what feeling, what rush you get out of killing a living thing for sport? These days, we now have high tech shooting ranges that can quell that desire to shoot things. These shooting ranges offer skeet shootings for those of you who like to shoot moving targets. The NRA offers shooting range services if you would like more information. If you cannot afford to become a member of a shooting range, then please consider using inanimate objects as an alternative and use your creativity.

What has ALWAYS puzzled me are pro-life people ready and willing to defend and protect a human embryo that doesn't even belong to them. However these same PRO-LIFE people find it okay, no problem, nothing WRONG with shooting and killing a LIVING BREATHING ANIMAL just for the fun of it?!?!?! Wouldn't this be considered an OXYMORON? or How about hypocrisy?
