DISPATCHES

Comments on last night's televised January hearings: Dinesh D'Souza's professional....Hollywood style documentaries....Hillary's America....Obama's America....had been very effective....setting the stage for the Trump 2016 win....D'Souza continues to produce films like this.....as do other conservative producers.....but in listening to talk radio this morning....an ABC NEWS exec and producer professionalizing the January 6 hearings....is not acceptable.

An irate caller complained that all that happened in the Capitol was that people marched through the halls....shouting. I waited for the host's response. Surely he would not sign on to this nonsense....but he did.....as he said...."That's right."

There were two....'witnesses'....at this first televised hearing.....and the same radio host....attacked their participation. This is what we saw through all the impreachment hearings.....attack the witnesses!
................................................................................................

I have lived both lives.....the one not knowing for sure that Jesus was really returning soon....not even desiring it.....and also not being aware of the....paralyzing with joy....glory of God. The other....today....not only desiring that our Lord return to this violent world....but seeing very clearly in His word that He and His angels are already mounted....and seeing the glories of God more than ever before. My testimony is that there is no comparison....and I pray that I never have to go back!   

 As I type this....about 11 at night....a blood moon is starting to form....and should be complete in our area shortly. Did you know that Donald Trump was born on a blood moon on June 14, 1946....and his famous 'down the escalator' announcement of his candidacy was during the 2014/2015 tetrad. I was born in the middle of a tetrad....four consecutive blood moons....or total lunar eclipses.....in my case the tetrad was from April of 1949 to September of 1950. I've always been interested in these type of events in the sky....from eclipses to comets. Personally....I believe that God uses these happenings in the sky.....when He chooses to....the star that the wise men followed....whatever that was....is evidence of this. At times it seems as if we are terrified of considering anything not already contained in the Westminster Standards. This blood moon tonight may have absolutely no significance at all....or it may. The much ballyhooed and written about tetrad mentioned above of a few years ago.....2014-2015....may have had no significance at all....and then maybe it did. God reveals things to us in His own perfect time.

Update: It was a spectacular total lunar eclipse. Blood Moons as they are called are not rare....but tetrads are. The earth had gone hundreds of years without experiencing one yet five occurred in the 20th century. What made the 2014/2015 tetrad even more interesting was that all four occurred on Jewish feast days.

I have lived seventy-two years. I was able to partake in the America of our heritage.....before that America succumbed to the same temptations that ancient Israel succumbed to before they were judged by God. I remember that heritage....and weep at what we have replaced it with. I have given nothing to stop the downward spiral....in fact I added to it. I am but one person....one of many....who God for some unknown reason had mercy upon. Even my warnings are tinged with pride and arrogance....but I continue to warn....for if Jesus felt it to our benefit to warn us....and if Peter warned us....and Paul warned us....and John warned us....and Christians ministers such as Billy Graham.....just to name one.....of whom I would have had no right to even stand beside....if they felt....and feel it necessary to warn those that God gave them to minister to.....then we all have no choice but to at least warn our neighbors and friends....which in reality is all that these posts are....words to neighbors and hopefully friends....wherever they may live!

Bots are automated 'hits' to websites.....used for various purposes....among them could be giving the appearance of more interest in a website than actually exists.....and it can be used in political elections as it was by Russian operatives in 2016. In my own case....I do not have a 'counter' on this website precisely because bots distort the figure....whereas as of today I have 169,000 supposed hits.....I know that the real number is far less.....but I do not know what the real number is....so I do not display it. I rather look at the number of people who view my profile.....for there are no bots here....and it tells me how many new people visit these posts.
