For years I have done seminars on how to watch movies. I always have seen that Christians get very upset when you take away their secular entertainment. This is one of the major ways that secularism gets into her brain and controls Our Lives. It is very important that when you watch movies and TV you think. Or as the Bible puts it you set your mind on the things of the spirit not on the flesh.
SPIRITUAL ADULTERY
Spiritual adultery is unfaithfulness to God. It is having an undue fondness for the things of the world. Spiritually adultery is analogous to the unfaithfulness of one’s spouse: “‘But like a woman faithless to her lover, even so have you been faithless to me, O house of Israel,’ says the LORD” (Jeremiah 3:20; see also Isaiah 1:21; 57:8; Ezekiel 16:30).
Today, we read Gen. 1: 26 -28 as we continue to read about how God used His creativity, labor, and resources to create the heavens, the earth, and all that it contains. We see that on this very busy sixth day of creation, God made man in His own image.
In addition, God blessed them and told man to, “Be fruitful and multiply, and fill the earth, and subdue it; and rule over the fish of the sea and over the birds of the sky and over every living thing that moves on the earth.”
1 Corinthians 15:49: "Just as we have borne the image of the man of dust, we shall also bear the image of the man of heaven."
Last week we talked about hunting and fishing after the 5th day of God creating the creatures of the sea and the birds of the air.
On the sixth day, God creates the cattle, creeping things, and beasts of the earth.
One critical point to understand is each catagory is "after its own kind" meaning cows produce cows, hummingbirds produce hummingbirds, and whales produce whales.
The birds of the air, the fish in the seas, and the cattle on the earth are all commanded to be fruitful and multiply after their own kind.
Values are defined by a finite individuals choice. Morality is not defined by a infinite individual choice. But, Morality is defined by an infinite beings choice
To have morality there must be someone who knows everything. This is what Jesus said He is the truth. He is saying that he knows everything and has come to tell us what is truly true truth. The Bible also states that he is the Light. I Am the Light of the World
12 Again Jesus spoke to them, saying,
“I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will not walk in darkness, but will have the light of life.”13 So the Pharisees said to him, “You are bearing witness about yourself; your testimony is not true.”14 ....“Even if I do bear witness about myself, my testimony is true, for I know where I came from and where I am going, but you do not know where I come from or where I am going.16 Yet even if I do judge, my judgment is true, for it is not I alone who judge, but I and the Father[a] who sent me.
“Whoever believes in me does not believe in me only, but in the one who sent me.45The one who looks at me is seeing the one who sent me.46I have come into the world as a light, so that no one who believes in me should stay in darkness.
47“If anyone hears my words but does not keep them, I do not judge that person. For I did not come to judge the world, but to save the world.
What we're trying to do in this is show is show who God is and how he acts, and Who We Are and how we should act in relationship to him and his created design.
This is called biblical economics
The branch of knowledge and revelation concerned with the production, consumption, and transfer of resources is called economics.
Biblical Economics focuses on the behaviour and interactions of economic agents and how economies work.
On day five, God filled the seas with all manner of fish and sea monsters and the air with every kind of flying bird. He commanded them to be fruitful and multiply and fill the seas and the air.
It is because of His command to be fruitful and multiply that we are able to hunt and fish to this day. Again, we can see God's plan of economics being formed right from the beginning of creation.
Miss Lee has taken the whole month of November to emphasize thankfulness on her Facebook page I recommend that you look at the things she is thankful for. This is such a good idea. She gets up every morning and thinks of one thing to be thankful for that she post your friends on Facebook.
I see as her husband this makes a tremendous difference in her attitude during the day.
Thessalonians 5:18Amplified Bible (AMP)
18 in every situation [no matter what the circumstances] be there and
continually give thanks to God; for this is the will of God for you in Christ Jesus Dennis Prager does a great job of explaining how the laws of nature points clearly to this biblical principle of thankfulness.
God continues to tell us how He created the universe by creating the sun, moon, and stars. He lays out the foundations for work and rest by dividing the night from day. God is letting us have a small glimpse into His Power.
The debate about biological origins continues to be hotly contested within the Christian church. Prominent organizations such as Biologos (USA) and Faraday Institute (UK) insist that Christians must yield to an unassailable scientific consensus in favor of contemporary evolutionary theory and modify traditional biblical ideas about the creation of life accordingly. They promote a view known as “theistic evolution” or “evolutionary creation.” They argue that God used—albeit in an undetectable way—evolutionary mechanisms to produce all forms of life. This book contests this proposal. Featuring two dozen highly credentialed scientists, philosophers, and theologians from Europe and North America, this volume provides the most comprehensive critique of theistic evolution yet produced. It documents evidential, logical, and theological problems with theistic evolution, opening the door to scientific and theological alternatives—making the book essential reading for understanding this worldview-shaping issue.
As we take a pause from "The Life of Christ In Stereo", we can see that not only was God creative in creating the heavens, the earth, and the seas, but He planned for the future creation of animals, fish, and mankind by first creating the vegetation and the trees so that we would have food for nourishment and growth.
The basis of economics is set forth from the beginning as the vegetation and trees are created with seeds already in them so that they can multiply!
This is why the Declaration of Independence places THE CREATOR AS so important and so unique social life, it recognizes that the Creator is the originator of Justice and happened and has given all individuals inalienable rights.
The Declaration names three of these rights, life liberty and the pursuit* of happiness.
The places this idea has gone has brought the greatest freedom, both physically and spiritually. As well as the greatest material abundance in world history.
*
By pursuing happiness as an act of the will not as a feeling we can change our world.
Mark 8:33(NASB)
33 But turning around and seeing His disciples, He rebuked Peter and *said, “Get behind Me, Satan; for you are not setting your mind on [a]God’s interests, but man’s.”
Economics is a branch of knowledge concerned with the production, consumption, and transfer of resources. God developed these resources for us to use to show what He is like.
In the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth. Not only was He creative, making something out of nothing, but He totally owned it all (a basic presumption of economics).
As we pause from "The Life of Christ In Stereo" and study some of the book of Genesis, we will better understand why Jesus had to be born to die.
Today, we not only read about how Peter would deny the Lord but we also learned of the death of a friend who seemed to love the treasures he had built on the earth more than eternal investments.
The only true way to build eternal investments, or treasures, is accept the Lord Jesus Christ as our Lord and Savior, and live a Sacrificial Life For The Lord during our life.
We may not always honor Christ as we should, but we can easily confess our sins and return to honoring those things which last for eternity rather than the material things we accumulate on earth.
This is Called Cleansing or Confessing or sins. 1 John 1:9.

MATH 6:19 “Do not store up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moth and rust destroy, and where thieves break in and steal. 20 But store up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust destroys, and where thieves do not break in or steal; 21 for where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.

New American Standard Bible
Romans 12:1 Therefore I urge you, brethren, by the mercies of God, to present your bodies a living and holy sacrifice, acceptable to God, which is your spiritual service of worship. 2And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, so that you may prove what the will of God is, that which is good and acceptable and perfect.
This is a great warning of what's going on in the universities. But the answer she gives of humanism that clearly leaves out the Bible both Old and New Testament. It is just as closed minded, as this new critical theory that has taken over the universities. The humanism she offers is too weak to oppose this secularism that she is spouting. The answer comes in what the founding fathers clearly believed, that the Creator, not Humanity, not government, but the Creator gives us our inalienable rights, and true knowledge, in the laws of nature and in the laws of Nature's God.
The current theorists are doing exactly the same thing that the humanist did in the last generation in the University's they are excluding God from thinking. This means secularization of the curriculum and excluding Bible as literature.
As we have left the Christian narrative of reality as the basis of our society and reality we have lost the ability to know good and bad. This be seen most evidently in the degeneration of Art in the 20th and 21st century.
Most of what you need to know about psychiatric drugs or "medications" is found in a 457 page book published in 2008 by psychiatrist Peter R. Breggin, M.D., Brain-Disabling Treatments in Psychiatry, Second Edition (Springer Publishing Company):
...except for the brain dysfunction and biochemical imbalances caused by psychiatric drugs, there are no known abnormalities in the brains of people who routinely seek help from psychiatrists ... For this edition of this book, the concept of brain-disabling treatment has been updated and expanded with...new information on the neurotoxicity and cytotoxicity of all antipsychotic drugs. ...
All biopsychiatric treatments share a common mode of action: the disruption of normal brain function. ...
all the major categories of psychiatric drugs—antidepressants, stimulants, tranquilizers (antianxiety drugs), mood stabilizers, and antipsychotics—are neurotoxic.
They poison neurons, and sometimes destroy them. ...
The currently available biopsychiatric treatments are not specific for any known disorder of the brain.
One and all, they disrupt normal brain function, without correcting any brain abnormality. ...
even if one or another psychiatric disorder someday turns out to have a biological basis, that in no way would justify inflicting psychiatric drugs on these patients, thereby compounding their underlying brain disorder with drug toxicity. ...
Ironically, psychiatric drugs do not cure or ameliorate central nervous system disorders; they cause them. [pp. xxiii, xxvii, 2, 7, 8, 43]
Dr. Peter C. Gotzsche, a physician specializing in internal medicine at Denmark's Nordic Cochrane Centre, alleged in the May 12, 2015 British Medical Journal:
Psychiatric drugs are responsible for the deaths of more than half a million people aged 65 and older each year in the Western world... Their benefits would need to be colossal to justify this, but they are minimal. ... Given their lack of benefit, I estimate we could stop almost all psychotropic drugs without causing harm ... This would lead to healthier and longer-lived populations.
1. Rush Limbaugh Summarizes The Issue "The founders believed that rights and liberty came from our creation and not men, not government, not other people. And that’s what made them inalienable. Meaning, you can’t lose them. You can be deprived of them but you can’t lose them, they’re there always." 2. Charles C. W. Cooke, Gives The History "along with the rest of the Bill of Rights it was the product of a disagreement as to how to best protect freedoms that were generally considered unalienable." 3. History of Blacks and Guns "Even during the bleakest of times, armed Black men and women carved out lives that defy modern expectations. Living and thriving in the American west, US Marshal Bass Reeves, “Black Mary” Fields, Brit Johnson, Willie Kennard, George Goldsby and “Nigger Jim” Kelly, stood and fought and prevailed against expectations. They enrich the tradition with episodes of grit and bravery that endeared them to many of their white contemporaries and raised some of them to legend."
Judge Moore is a social conservative of a species that is almost extinct in Washington.” He is a consistent follower of: Martin Luther King In his “Letter from Birmingham Jail,” Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. wrote: “(T)here are two types of laws: there are just laws, and there are unjust laws. I would agree with St. Augustine that ‘An unjust law is no law at all.’…A just law is a man-made code that squares with the moral law, or the law of God. An unjust law is a code that is out of harmony with the moral law. To put it in the terms of St. Thomas Aquinas, an unjust law is a human law that is not rooted in eternal and natural law.

Thomas Jefferson
And George Washington.
I would consider Judge Moore a George Washington Republican.
ALL BELIEVED IN A CREATOR THAT GAVE ALL MEN UNALIENABLE RIGHTS,
Hannah Arendt: “The greater the bureaucratization of public life, the greater will be the attraction of violence. In a fully developed bureaucracy there is nobody left with whom one could argue, to whom one could present grievances, on whom the pressures of power could be exerted. Bureaucracy is the form of government in which everybody is deprived of political freedom, of the power to act; for the rule by Nobody is not no-rule, and where all are equally powerless we have a tyranny without a tyrant.”
Jesus continues to prepare His disciples for His departure from them in a short time. He instructs them on what they will need as they journey forward including the need to defend themselves with the sword if need be. But just like we do sometimes, they overacted by offering Him two sword.
"Yom Kippur falls each year on the 10th day of the Jewish month of Tishrei, which is 9 days after the first day of Rosh Hashanah. In terms of the Gregorian calendar, the earliest date on which Yom Kippur can fall is September 14, as happened in 1899 and 2013.
Jesus teaches us all that God the Father loves Him and because of that we are one with Jesus, the Father, and the Holy Spirit because Jesus gave His life to bring us into unity with them and each other.
We also can know that if we confess our sins as soon as they become aware to us, we can continue to enjoy that unity with the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit each and every moment.
Good because it shows central planning is not the bases of fruitful living.
Bad in that it declares order as Magic or Chance.
The words of our Declaration Of Independence says this order comes from the Laws of Nature that that are Created.
But this imaginary cartoon fails to see that the Moral laws, that guides people to not be sluggards and bums, or thieves, and live off of the state and others. This cartoon gives credit to Magic and chance.. Not the invisible LAWS OF NATURE, AND THE INVISIBLE LAWS OF NATURES GOD, THE CREATOR. Greed and theft are both evil. This is why American economics is not ether one. American economics is found in the 10 Commandments and the Sermon on the Mount, and the laws of nature, that are designed, by Nature's Creator.
IN CONGRESS, JULY 4, 1776
The unanimous Declarationof the thirteen unitedStates of America
When in the Course of human events it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another and to assume among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the Laws of Nature and of Nature's God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation.
We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness. — That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, —
This means you must leave the Laws Of Nature's God out of Gov. Even though that is one of the legs of liberty, found in The Declaration Of Indipendance. The left has unleashed a secular religious jihad on Christian judges. This happened in the schools in the 20th century. And is now taking place in Washington with our judges.
NFL commissioner Roger Goodell saying Trump’s “divisive comments” show “an unfortunate lack of respect for the NFL.“ Divisive comments like these demonstrate an unfortunate lack of respect for the NFL, our great game and all of our players, and a failure to understand the overwhelming force for good our clubs and players represent in our communities.” WE ARE TIRED OF THE DISRESPECT OF AMERICA AND ITS PEOPLE!!
My wife and I will not watch another NFL FOOTBALL GAME THIS YEAR..

The Democrat Party through its military force, ANTIFA and Black Lives Matter are trying to paint Christians and right-wing Republicans as fascists. This could not be farther from the truth. As Hitler founded the National Socialist Party. And Mussolini the father of fascism was a communist.
In is video Dinesh D'Souza clearly shows in 15 minutes the history of fascism and how it works in America.
You need to read liberal fascism.

Charlie said on CNS, "Actually, when you get right down to it, it’s not a battle over the separation of church and state at all. It’s a battle over the separation of God and state, that is the ultimate goal, to strike the mention of the Creator’s name from every federal paper, ceremony or public monument.
And to refine the point even more, it’s not even a battle about “religion” at all, but rather a battle against Christianity.
This is a battle against Christianity, pure and simple, and a movement inspired from the pit of hell by God’s oldest enemy, Satan. He hates God, Jesus and everything that could remotely remind people of them and will do everything in his power to eradicate them all."
