From The Book: 1000 More Things You Always Wanted To Know About The BIBLE

I thought I’d do something for fun, so here it is! A lot of you already know this stuff, so this is for the ones who don’t….

 Chapter 8:  Back in the U.S.A

Moses and the Supreme Court
In the U.S Supreme Court Building stands a statue of Moses holding the TEN COMMANDMENTS. The statue symbolizes the law’s dependence on the Laws of God. Given the trend of the courts in recent years, it is a miracle that someone hasn’t protested the statue as indicating ” establishment of religion.” Stand by: (p.159)

lots of stuff concerning the  U.S.A.  Supreme Court, but here’s a little bit of it…

http://www.supremecourt.gov/about/courtbuilding.aspx

The Supreme Court Building:

“The Republic endures and this is the symbol of its faith.” These words, spoken by Chief Justice Charles Evans Hughes in laying the cornerstone for the Supreme Court Building on October 13, 1932, express the importance of the Supreme Court in the American system.

Yet surprisingly, despite its role as a coequal branch of government, the Supreme Court was not provided with a building of its own until 1935, the 146th year of its existence.

Initially, the Court met in the Merchants Exchange Building in New York City. When the National Capital moved to Philadelphia in 1790, the Court moved with it, establishing Chambers first in the State House (Independence Hall) and later in the City Hall.

When the Federal Government moved, in 1800, to the permanent Capital, Washington, the District of Columbia, the Court again moved with it. Since no provision had been made for a Supreme Court Building, Congress lent the Court space in the new Capitol Building. The Court was to change its meeting place a half dozen times within the Capitol. Additionally, the Court convened for a short period in a private house after the British set fire to the Capitol during the War of 1812. Following this episode, the Court returned to the Capitol and met from 1819 to 1860 in a chamber now restored as the “Old Supreme Court Chamber.” Then from 1860 until 1935, the Court sat in what is now known as the “Old Senate Chamber.”

Finally in 1929, Chief Justice William Howard Taft, who had been President of the United States from 1909 to 1913, persuaded Congress to end this arrangement and authorize the construction of a permanent home for the Court. Architect Cass Gilbert was charged by Chief Justice Taft to design “a building of dignity and importance suitable for its use as the permanent home of the Supreme Court of the United States.”

Neither Taft nor Gilbert survived to see the Supreme Court Building completed. Construction proceeded under the direction of Chief Justice Hughes and architects Cass Gilbert, Jr., and John R. Rockart. The construction, begun in 1932, was completed in 1935, when the Court was finally able to occupy its own building.

The classical Corinthian architectural style was selected because it best harmonized with nearby congressional buildings. The building was designed on a scale in keeping with the importance and dignity of the Court and the Judiciary as a coequal, independent branch of the United States Government, and as a symbol of “the national ideal of justice in the highest sphere of activity.”

The general dimensions of the foundation are 385 feet from east to west, (front to back) and 304 feet from north to south. At its greatest height, the building rises four stories above the terrace or ground floor. Marble was chosen as the principal material to be used and $3 million worth was gathered from foreign and domestic quarries. Vermont marble was used for the exterior, while the four inner courtyards are of crystalline flaked, white Georgia marble. Above the basement level, the walls and floors of all corridors and entrance halls are either wholly or partially of creamy Alabama marble. The wood in offices throughout the building, such as doors, trim, paneled walls, and some floors, is American quartered white oak.

The Court Building cost less than the $9,740,000 Congress authorized for its construction. Not only was the final and complete cost of the building within the appropriation, but all furnishings were also procured, even though planners had initially expected that the project would require additional appropriations. Upon completion of the project, $94,000 was returned to the Treasury.

 

Touring the Building

The main entrance to the Supreme Court Building is on the west side, facing the United States Capitol. A few low steps lead up to the 252-foot-wide oval plaza in front of the building. Flanking these steps is a pair of marble candelabra with carved panels on their square bases depicting: Justice, holding sword and scales, and The Three Fates, weaving the thread of life. On either side of the plaza are fountains, flagpoles, and benches.

The bronze flagpole bases are crested with symbolic designs of the scales and sword, the book, the mask and torch, the pen and mace, and the four elements: air, earth, fire, and water.

On either side of the main steps are seated marble figures. These large statues are the work of sculptor James Earle Fraser. On the left is a female figure, the Contemplation of Justice. On the right is a male figure, the Guardian or Authority of Law.

Sixteen marble columns at the main west entrance support the pediment. On the architrave above is incised “Equal Justice Under Law” Capping the entrance is a sculptured group by Robert Aitken, representing Liberty Enthroned guarded by Order and Authority. On either side are groups of three figures depicting Council and Research which Aitken modeled after several prominent individuals concerned with the law or the creation of the Supreme Court Building. At the left are Chief Justice Taft as a youth, Secretary of State Elihu Root, and the architect Cass Gilbert. Seated on the right are Chief Justice Hughes, the sculptor Aitken, and Chief Justice Marshall as a young man.

Too often, visitors do not see the corresponding pediment and columns on the east side. Here the sculpture group is by Hermon A. MacNeil, and the marble figures represent great lawgivers, Moses, Confucius, and Solon, flanked by symbolic groups representing Means of Enforcing the Law, Tempering Justice with Mercy, Settlement of Disputes Between States, and Maritime and other functions of the Supreme Court. The architrave bears the legend: “Justice the Guardian of Liberty.”

The monumental bronze doors at the top of the front steps weighs six and one-half tons each and slide into a wall recess when opened. The door panels, sculpted by John Donnelly, Jr., depict historic scenes in the development of law: the trial scene from the shield of Achilles, as described in the Iliad; a Roman praetor publishing an edict; Julian and a pupil; Justinian publishing the Corpus Juris; King John sealing the Magna Carta; the Chancellor publishing the first Statute of Westminster; Lord Coke barring King James from sitting as a Judge; and Chief Justice Marshall and Justice Story.

The main corridor is known as the Great Hall. At each side, double rows of monolithic marble columns rise to a coffered ceiling. Busts of all former Chief Justices are set alternately in niches and on marble pedestals along the side walls. The frieze is decorated with medallion profiles of lawgivers and heraldic devices.

At the east end of the Great Hall, oak doors open into the Court Chamber. This dignified room measures 82 by 91 feet and has a 44–foot ceiling. Its 24 columns are Old Convent Quarry Siena marble from Liguria, Italy; its walls and friezes are of Ivory Vein marble from Alicante, Spain; and its floor borders are Italian and African marble.

The raised Bench behind which the Justices sit during sessions, and other furniture in the Courtroom are mahogany. The Bench was altered in 1972 from a straight-line to a “winged” shape to provide sight and sound advantages over the original design.

At the left of the Bench is the Clerk of the Court’s desk. The Clerk is responsible for the administration of the Court’s dockets and argument calendars, the supervision of the admission of attorneys to the Supreme Court Bar, and other related activities. To the right is the desk of the Marshal of the Court. The Marshal is the timekeeper of Court sessions, signalling the lawyer by white and red lights as to time limits. The Marshal’s responsibilities include the maintenance and security of the building and serving as the Court’s building manager.

The attorneys arguing cases before the Court occupy the tables in front of the Bench. When it is their turn to argue, they address the Bench from the lectern in the center. A bronze railing divides the public section from that reserved for the Supreme Court Bar.

Representatives of the press are seated in the red benches along the left side of the Courtroom. The red benches on the right are reserved for guests of the Justices. The black chairs in front of those benches are for the officers of the Court and visiting dignitaries.

The main floor is largely occupied by the Justices’ Chambers, offices for law clerks and secretaries, the large, formal East and West Conference Rooms, the offices of the Marshal, an office for the Solicitor General, the Lawyers’ Lounge, and the Justices’ Conference Room and Robing Room. This office space surrounds four courtyards, each with a central fountain.

Most of the second floor is devoted to office space including the offices of the Reporter of Decisions and the Legal Office. The Justices’ Library Reading Room and the Justices’ Dining Room are also located here.

The Library occupies the third floor and has a collection of more than 500,000 volumes. To meet the informational needs of the Court, librarians draw on electronic retrieval systems and their microform collection in addition to books. The library’s main reading room is paneled in hand carved oak. The wood carving here, as throughout the building, is the work of the Matthews Brothers.

The ground floor is devoted to offices and public services, including the offices of the Clerk of the Court, the Counselor to the Chief Justice, police headquarters, the Public Information Office and Press Room, the Curator’s Office and the Personnel Office. On this floor visitors can view one of the two marble spiral staircases. Each ascends five stories and is supported only by overlapping steps and by their extensions into the wall.

FAITH UNDER FIRE

Ten Commandments stunner: Feds lying at Supreme Court

Government tells modern visitors it’s Bill of Rights being honored

Every argument before the U.S. Supreme Court and every opinion the justices deliver comes in the presence of the Ten Commandments, God’s law given to Moses on a fire-scorched mountain, and now represented for the United States in the very artwork carved into the high court structure.

In today’s world of revisionist history, the proof comes through the work of a California pastor who visited the Supreme Court building recently when he was in Washington and was surprised that what the tour guides were telling him wasn’t the same thing as what he was seeing.

Todd DuBord, pastor of the Lake Almanor Community Church in California, said he was traveling with his wife, Tracy, and was more than startled during recent visits to the courthouse and two other historic locations to discover the stories of the nation’s heritage had been sterilized of Christian references.

Moses, Ten Commandments Already Featured at US Supreme Court    http://www.christianheadlines.com/news/moses-ten-commandments-already-featured-at-us-supreme-court-1223163.html

(CNSNews.com) – This Sunday, the “Save the Commandments Caravan” tour will arrive at the U.S. Supreme Court to protest the high court’s decision not to get involved in an Alabama dispute involving the Ten Commandments. Supreme Court justices decided to stay out of the controversy even though the Supreme Court building itself contains several references and statues of Moses holding tablets.

The Alabama dispute is by now well known to the public. State Supreme Court Chief Justice Roy Moore had a 2.5-ton Ten Commandments monument erected in the rotunda of the Alabama Judicial Building. After much legal wrangling, including a rejected request that the U.S. Supreme Court rule on whether the placement of the monument was legal, a lower federal court ordered the monument removed.

But Christian groups have continued the struggle on Moore’s behalf ever since.

Gary DeMar, president of the American Vision, a Christian educational and communications organization, said the U.S. Supreme Court building contains several references and depictions of Moses and the Ten Commandments. A summary of DeMar’s upcoming book, America’s Christian Heritage, promises to “deliver all the facts you need to defend the Ten Commandments as a public display and to preserve your rights as a Christian American.””

As a part of larger sculptural clusters, Moses is shown with tablets in the Great Hall, The East Pediment, and the North Courtroom of the U.S. Supreme Court, DeMar said. There is also an image of the Ten Commandments that is engraved on the frame of the bronze gates separating the courtroom from the aisle.

Also, above where the chief justice sits, a banner reads, “Justice, the Guardian of Liberty.” Centered above the banner is a depiction of Moses seated and holding the Ten Commandments, DeMar added.

The U.S. Supreme Court website states that, “Over time, the use of two tablets has become a symbol for the Commandments, and more generally, ancient laws. Tablets signify the permanence of the law when written in stone.”

Joseph Loconte, a religious expert from The Heritage Foundation, said it’s clear America’s Founding Fathers intended to create a secular constitution for the young nation.

But while the “the body of the Constitution is a secular text,” Loconte said, “it was perfectly natural to them to have the religious roots of the republic represented in symbol form to remind people of those religious roots and connections.”

Today’s liberal left, Loconte asserted, believes that the Constitution gives them the right never to hear religious speech they find offensive. “That is not at all at what the First Amendment protects…the First Amendment protects the right of all individuals, religious or non-religious, to express their views.

“This idea that you have a constitutional right never to hear religious speech that you find offensive is madness, absolute madness,” Loconte said.

But Robert Boston, assistant communications director with Americans United for Separation of Church and State, believes the figures of Moses and the Ten Commandments at the Supreme Court are merely there in a historical context, along with many other depictions.

Boston said he believes many people are confused and are making invalid assumptions.

“According to the Supreme Court’s website, the artist who designed the East Pediment frieze (sculptured band), said that the tablet was designed to represent the Bill of Rights and not the Ten Commandments,” Boston said. “That makes sense because it is a single tablet, not two tablets. Some people are just confused and believe that anything resembling a tablet or has one to ten written on them must be representative of the Ten Commandments.”

Despite the many claims he has heard, that the Ten Commandments serve as the foundation for American law, Boston said, at best, there are only three commandments reflected in secular law: Thou Shall Not Kill, Thou Shall Not Steal, and Thou Shall Not Lie.

“These common sense laws have existed in every society. The government isn’t supposed to endorse religion. Do it like the Supreme Court does — have an educational display that includes the Ten Commandments among many other sources,” Boston said.

THANKS FOR TAKING TIME AWAY FROM YOUR BUSY SCHEDULE TO READ THESE BLOGS!!!!!!! 🙂

Want To Play…? OK. Then Let Us Play

So I say “you wanna play?” “Ok then, lets play! you  may call it, whatever it may be, then we’ll play it. But let me warn you; I WILL WIN! I will always Win, and you WILL LOSE! I will give you a head start, I will give you the upper hand. I will let you win the toss, I will even let you set your own rules. But, I must warn you “I WILL WIN!” Yes I say, I will WIN. That is the warning I  give you. So if you still want to play the game with me,  I’ll even let you get the first draw.” “We’ll call it the life game.”

So let’s play!!!

“Now I’ve warned You, you will Lose! You will play at your own risk! You will lose, please don’t say you were not warned. But, if you play the game right “I just might let you win, ok. But not hardly. There are correct steps to winning. You can’t play any old way and expect to win.  You will never win the game I created, unless you get it right, and do all the right things. When I say right things I mean, MY WAY.  Then you’ll win. Now when I say I’ll let you set your own rules, I mean it. But… setting your own rules has it ups and downs, and it can be challenging. So are you ready to play with Me, knowing all that?  Are you sure you still want to play?”

“Write your own rule book(s), set your own goals for the game, or make your rules up as you go. Challenge Me? Try to play with ME? Buck ME. Curse ME. Fight ME. Go up against ME. Call MY hand. Think you’ll be lucky? There is no such thing as Luck! Think there is a such thing as chance, I bid you not. Think you’ve got it going on? I think not! So you wanna play, ok, let’s play!”

Let Me describe to you in detail why and how I will win the Game:

First, “I know for a fact, Life is not a game. I did not create gamers. I created humans to serve and praise Me, and Me only!”

Second, “I’ve allowed you to make mistakes, but you must believe ME AND REPENT.”

Third, “I will, and have, allowed you to set your on rules, but I know who made the rules.”

Fourth, “I don’t change My mind, you do!”

Fifth, “You want to be Me, and set all rules, but that will never make you win, nor a winner.”

Sixth, “ Man does not want to play the game fairly. You only want to play by your own set of rules.”

Seventh, “Man wants to always be the winner. How can you ever win over Me?”

Eighth, “Men fails, I never have and never will.”

Ninth, “You didn’t create anything unless I let you, you can’t create anything unless I give you the blueprint, so you can’t win unless I let you!”

Tenth, “Man finds it very hard to be a loser, or to be able to play by someone else rules or guidelines.”

Eleventh, “Men are like spoil children, always wanting their way. Especially the ones that give way to their feelings, or their desires. Not caring if it is right or wrong.”

 Twelfth, “If a desire come along to cheat, you always take the opportunity to do so. You are cheaters!”

 Thirteenth “You don’t care for Me, nor do you have any respect for Me!”

Fourteenth, “I don’t play games, but I have to bring it to your level. Besides I have a whole big universe I have to oversee! Just imagine if  all the animals I created played game with Me too, how really busy I’d be. Just this, if the elements started to disobey Me! Man you’d be in a lot of trouble!”

Fifteenth, “If you would listen to Me, keep My Commands, Love your fellowmen, and treated each other like sister and brothers, half of My work would be a less challenging. Maybe if you treated each other like that piece of lust you craved, then, you be a better much nicer people! Right?”

Sixteenth, “See I often catch you slipping, so therefore I will always be, and I Am, the Stronger One.”

Seventeenth, “You just can’t beat ME, no matter how hard you try. You must play by My rules. They were created for you.”

Eighteen, “You challenge Me everyday! Or at least you think you are. There is only ONE GOD, and I AM He!”

Nineteen, “When will you stop?” “Playing, you lose! You have lost already.”

Twenty,  “You don’t even have control over yourself, let alone someone or something else, if I take your breath away what can you do?”

You have taken what I’ve given to you, and you call it a game! How dare you!

Now I hope, you’re kinda of getting the idea, right?

“Ok, now let’s talk about what happens when you try to cheat ME! What happens when you think you’re getting over on ME. When you call Me a liar. When you try to change My Words. When you try to call My hand. When you think you’re getting by, just enough, to pretend with Me. When you cheat, and then you think you are right, and call Me wrong. YOU LOSE! Yes that’s what I said, You Lose and you have Lost. You’ve lost everything, even your life! You see when you play games, and in games there are winners and losers, and as I said earlier I do not lose- ever! So if I never lose, then what does that make you?”

So now I’ll give you some reasons as to why, I do what I do, and why I do all I do to you.

First,  “Most all of you disobey me, so I have to punish you.”

Second, “You have taken Me for granted, so I have to do something to get your attention.” When I make good things happen for you, who do you thank…well I can say it isn’t ME. Maybe that’s why so many bad things happen. You see I am a jealous God, That’s right, that is what I said. I AM JEALOUS!”

Third, “Daily I have to remind you that I am the FATHER and The SON, not your toy, not your biological father or your biological son. So stop treating me like I’m you kid.” You see, when I was a child in Nazareth, I did play like a child played, I laughed, I played tricks on my parents, I did all the things children did, but when I grew up I really grew up! I put away all the childish stuff, and never looked back. But you humans never want to grow up! Man grow up! You can’t have your way forever!”

Fourth, “I do things to you that have an effect on everything around you and in your environment.” I let satan take your children, your loved ones, your most cherished valuables, those things you love more than ME. You had better be trying to store your riches above and not beneath. What I mean by that is that, you better start looking to ME, because what you have on this earth, at the end of your life really isn’t gonna matter.”

Fifth, “I bring wars and rumors of war right to your front door.”  Look around… Must I say more? ” There’s a war here, there’s a war there, here’s a war, there’s a war, there’s a war everywhere. You know the nursery rhyme.. ”

Sixth, “I bring you storms, rains, floods, fires that destroy your earthly possessions, because you don’t listen to Me. When I make it rain, can you make it stop?” When I bring the snow, can you make it stop?” When I bring a flood, can you make it stop? When I take a plane out of the air can you make it stop? When I punish you can you make it stop?”

Seventh, “I dry up your land, so they can’t bear food. Then I raise prices so you won’t have enough of anything. I let the rich get richer while the poor get poorer, I let the sun shine on the just as well as the unjust. I let the rain fall on the just as well as the unjust. I allow satan to cause bad things to happen to good people, but I’m right there until the end.”

Eighth, “I supplied the earth with enough women and men for everyone to have a perfect mate, but no, you want to have yours and someone else’s mate too. Then you want to say it’s not enough to go around, or you say I can’t find a mate, so you seek the same-sex to have sex with. You even lust after children, you must have missed that part in My Word that warns against hurting or destroying a child, or children. I am so fed up, with you people.” Yeah, every now and then I’ll let some one come along and produce a good movie. Such as The Passion of the Christ, The Bible, and now Noah’s Ark, there are many more. Just to give the people a chance, who never picked up a Bible, to get an idea. But to tell you the truth those movies don’t tell half the story.  They don’t even portray the people with their right hereditary traits, skin color and nationality. Boy I tell you, you humans sure can be deceiving.  But, I’ll tell you, be real, or get real!” So stop making ME look bad to unbelievers. Oh yeah, stop lying and changing MY WORD to fit your own situations. I said, exactly what I meant in the Bible. I said what I meant and I meant exactly what I said!”

“But I’ll tell you that wickedness will prevail until I really get tired, or until you cry out to Me for Me to heal the land. To tell you the truth I’m tired now, but I’m trying to give you humans a chance to get it right. Life is not a game. There is nothing about life that I would call a game. In My Words, you never heard, or read in My Word that life was a game!”

Ninth, “So you act surprised when I let some terrible things happen, such as terrorist attacks, bombings, hijacking, kidnappings and stuff like that, which happens. ALL of those things satan is behind, but I allow him to do it, Why? To get you attention. If I just let you go on and on doing the things you do I would have been destroyed the world, a long time ago. But I am fair, I’ll give you a chance.”  It’s no accident! Again, I just  let satan loose on all of you” The very thing you let dictate to you how life should be, will be the same thing that destroys you! Since you think satan is your friend, then I’ll let you in on a secret… Satan can care less than 1 cents about you. He’s your enemy, as you say the fool!”

Tenth, “So you see. Tell me, what about misery, appears to be like a game? Nothing. But see the worst the sins you commit, the worst the hurt I inflict. Yes I am God, I am a loving God, a caring God, an understanding God… but don’t keep stepping on my toes. Yes I forgive, millions and trillions and billions of times. I even forgive Infinity times, But ….don’t keep trying ME! I’ll forgive you right on up until the grave, but after the grave, don’t look for pity or sympathy! Because there will be none.

Eleventh, “I keep My Word. Rather good or bad, I keep My Word! If you don’t know or understand, look it up, you will find it all in MY Holy Bible! See I set the Holy Bible up to give you true and complete instructions for how I want you to live, but, no!, you humans, just mess up everything, I really want to use another word, but I don’t say cussing words.”

Twelfth, “ Do you still think it’s a game. Games are for gamers and I am not a gamer. Life is NOT a game. Life is a Gift from Me. Use it wisely and do good with it, because you only have one life to live.”

Thirteenth, “you cry out when in pain, you fall on your knees, you lift your hands to Me when in pain. But because you do not do these things daily, I don’t take you seriously. I hear you and I see you, but I know your heart is not in it.”

Fourteenth, don’t get me wrong, I love you all of you. In your sins and in your righteousness. But I must request that you obey My Laws and Commands, and especially Please repent!”

Fifteenth, “So playing with, and in, each others bodies when you know you don’t belong there!” I created you to be  male and female. I CREATED YOU TO BE MALE AND FEMALE. What about that you don’t understand? Now what the male and female do in the closet is their business. If it’s against my laws and commands, then I WILL DEAL WITH THAT. But when a male and male, or a female or female  do something in the closet, I have grave reason for concern!  But since it is already against MY Laws and commands, YOU ARE GONNA GET IT! Yes, I love and created you all, but I tell you the truth, you need to stop trying to change my Laws and Words… So using your own lustful desires, to do your own dirty deeds. Stop putting ME in that mess, because I don’t go along with your mess. It is mess, mess that y’all created. Man I AM TIRED, of all that stuff. Just do as I told you to do and save yourself a lot of misery. I didn’t create you like that. Then, you go so far as to say you  are born that way – THAT’S A LIE!!!  And the truth ain’t in ya! Stop using excuses to do as you please, I would rather you just tell the truth and say, this is what I like to do! Quit covering up your sins! Life is not a game, but you try hard to  make it one, I’ll tell you the truth, if you want to make it one, and if you want to act like it’s one, then I’ll tell you this – I WIN! QUIT LYING ON ME!

Sixteen, “Now about the Racism stuff – y’all need to QUIT! You all are the same! You all was created out of the same womb. Go back and read MY Biblical Histories! Y’all created race colors, I Didn’t. When you were conceived, you all were created from the same material. But when you come down the birth canal the skin tone varies. That’s the way I wanted it to be. Now imagine a world, if everybody was the same color. Now imagine a world if there was no different skin tones. Now what if everybody was of one color? There would be no spectrum of color varieties. No selections. No mixed colorization. Just one bland tone. I would get tired of looking at that myself!!! I love colors, look at MY creations. Nothing is all one color. Color brings excitement, color brings  out the WOW! Colors bring ME joy! Because I created that.  Now imagine if everybody was all white or all black. What does that leave  – nothing! None of you are better than the other, but if I let you tell it, White is right, Blacks get back, and Brown stick around. I don’t deal like that. I created you all, color is beautiful. Different colors are even better. But I’ll tell you what, just keep it up! Keep up that non-sense. Racism is non-sense, to me. But y’all make a big deal of it. A very weak mind believes the lie of a very weak mind. If a person tells you someone is dirty and they stink, and you believe it, without  your own investigation, then you are as weak as the person that told you the lie in the first place.  I see books that were written by authors in the old days, and the new days too. What they do is take their own ideologies and sell them to a weaker mind, and they believe the lies. And guess what – most really do believe it. You tell your children to hate, they do. You tell your hateful ideas, to others and they believe them. If you want to believe anything, then you need to BELIEVE MY WORD! I don’t hate, I just create! I created you all. I hate your sin, but I do not hate you!

Stop Hating and start loving; PLEASE. All that hating is going to come back and hunt you. Remember this, the persons you hate, because of the color of their skin, may just have already saved you from your sins! Now I’m going to let you in on a secret. there have been certain people that have adopted babies from a different race of not their own. They have adopted a  small clan or small  tribe of children from other races not like themselves. Do you know why I’ve allowed this to happen?  They got  a family of children, while young or babies, they do not see color. So I allow them to be raised up together as sister and brothers, they will learn of and about each other as children. They will play together, sleep together in the same beds, eat at the same tables, play in each others hair, and drink water from the same cups, and even cry together. All this is for a reason. Now I’ll give you an example, the adoption of the children of Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt, Madonna, and I’m sure there are many more. But I use these two families, because the have several races or nationality of children they’ve adopted in their home. So why do you think this happened?  Because I’ve allowed it. They will also see each other for their true worth. They will also develop an unconditional love for each other. Once it  has been planted as a seed, it will never be forgotten no matter what. There will be a supernatural  type of love there. “My sister is not a monster, my brother is not that monster, we share a lot in common, we have a lot in common –  one mother, one Father.”

These children will grow up as one family. Now as they get older, that will be another story, for discussion at a later time. But as they grow up together, they will develop a love and respect for each other. You get the idea. no color

Notice the Bond! Notice the hand holding!

Seventeen,  All evil finds its foundations in being a partaker in an evil thought process.

Eighteen, I have allowed some people to walk before time, some with time and a lot behind time!

                   

The reason I posted so many pictures of their family is because I really want you to think about that situation. The children, Angelina and Brad seems to have forgotten about their skin color. So why don’t we? So why can’t we? People it’s easier than you think!

“Oh yeah one more thing, STOP KILLING EACH OTHER. Let ME do the killing, not you! I give life, and I take life. That’s not for you to do! I kill because I had too, not because I wanted too. You kill because you want too. So I say to you STOP IT! What y’all really don’t get is that, you are going to be judged for that, and it won’t be so funny then. Basically you kill each other because it feels good to you to do so. You kill each other because you have nothing better to do. Now don’t get me wrong, sometimes killing really is necessary, but all the killing you do is so unnecessary. So having abortions, you knew when you had sex unprotected what might happen.  So don’t take it out on the baby. But if you were raped, I can understand that. But still killing is so wrong. I’ll handle the rapist. I don’t play when it comes to killing. Especially  unnecessary  killings.”

 So as I say: The decision is up to you. Do you think it’s a game? Do you really think life’s a game? Well I Don’t !

I created you ALL.  I gave you a choice to choose for yourselves the lives you want to live, then I have to abide by that. But I will still judge you for all of your actions. Why? Because I made the rules. Yes some say rules are meant to be broken; I say, but NOT MINE. So do you understand? I know you do because I created a perfect person, with understanding and a will to do and obey Me. Yes it’s so funny how humans want to change my rules. But My rules are not meant to be broken, and if you do you will pay a price for that. Oh some say God is not real; I say YES I AM! I see and hear everything you do and say. I know your every thought , good or bad. Some say  there is no God, I say yes there is – I AM. Some say God forgives, Yes I do , but you will not get away with all that nonsense. I inspired men to write the Holy Bible, some say the Bible is just another piece of literary work. Don’t be fooled! You think it’s all a game, in due time you will see it’s not! I am God, I created you all, for MY purpose and not your own. You Shall See. I love you, but I also expect you to obey. I am your Father rather you want to believe that or not. So some say I am not the Creator,  they say you was created because of a big – bang theory;  that way of think disgust Me! Can you as man be so simple-minded? Man wants to take the credit for everything, but I will not allow that. Let ME ask you a question. Who told you I was a God that would let you get away with breaking all rules – My Commandments?  Who told you that  there is no GOD? Who told you that you could tear up my world and creation? Who told you that you are your own god? Who told you that? I know who has led you astray? You may not understand the complete story or the complete truth of MY POWER and MY WORDS. But who caused you to un-believe? Who caused you to live by your own rules? Who? I know the answer. The same one that told Eve, in the garden that she would not surely die.  Oh by the way, that one lied. Yes I say lied, don’t act surprised!  That one is still telling you all that same lie today. Yes I SAID  Today, Yesterday and Tomorrow, that one will still tell you the same old lies and you will believe, as you do today, The same as Eve believed. Believe Me, there is no April’s fool. Nothing is a joke about your so-called games of life.  If I could get you all to understand games are not in my vocabulary. Game playing is not in My makeup. Nothing I created and cared for is a game.

Can you understand? Take the word game  OUT of your vocabulary; when it comes to ME. Just suppose it IS a game, for your sake, then, when will your game end? Games don’t last forever, they only last a little while, or they end when someone wins. But in My case, for your sake this game you play will end, but “I WIN.”

 

Genesis 1:27 So God created man in his own image, in the image of God he created him: male and female he created them.

I Timothy 4:4 For everything created by God is good, and nothing is to be rejected if it is received with thanksgiving,

Deuteronomy 23:14 Because the Lord your God walks in the midst of your camp, to deliver you and to give up your enemies before you, therefore your camp must be Holy, so that he may not see anything indecent among you and turn away from you.

Deuteronomy 22:9You shall not sow thy vineyard with different seeds: lest the fruit of your seed which you sown, and the fruit of thy vineyard be defiled.

1 Chronicles 10:14He did not seek guidance from the Lord. Therefore the Lord put him to death and turned the kingdom over to David the son of Jesse.

Ecclesiastes 1:1-18 The words of the Preacher, the son of David, king in Jerusalem. Vanity of vanities, says the Preacher, vanity of vanities! All is vanity. What does man gain by all the toil at which he toils under the sun? A generation goes, and a generation comes, but the earth remains forever. The sun rises, and the sun goes down, and hastens to the place where it rises.

The words of the Teacher, son of David, king in Jerusalem: 2 “Meaningless! Meaningless!” says the Teacher. “Utterly meaningless! Everything is meaningless.”3 What does man gain from all his labor at which he toils under the sun? 4 Generations come and generations go, but the earth remains forever. 5 The sun rises and the sun sets, and hurries back to where it rises. 6 The wind blows to the south and turns to the north; round and round it goes, ever returning on its course. 7 All streams flow into the sea, yet the sea is never full. To the place the streams come from, there they return again. 8 All things are wearisome, more than one can say. The eye never has enough of seeing, nor the ear its fill of hearing. 9 What has been will be again, what has been done will be done again; there is nothing new under the sun. 10 Is there anything of which one can say, “Look! This is something new”? It was here already, long ago; it was here before our time. 11 There is no remembrance of men of old, and even those who are yet to come will not be remembered by those who follow.

12 I, the Teacher, was king over Israel in Jerusalem. 13 I devoted myself to study and to explore by wisdom all that is done under heaven. What a heavy burden God has laid on men! 14 I have seen all the things that are done under the sun; all of them are meaningless, a chasing after the wind. 15 What is twisted cannot be straightened; what is lacking cannot be counted. 16 I thought to myself, “Look, I have grown and increased in wisdom more than anyone who has ruled over Jerusalem before me; I have experienced much of wisdom and knowledge.” 17 Then I applied myself to the understanding of wisdom, and also of madness and folly, but I learned that this, too, is a chasing after the wind. 18 For with much wisdom comes much sorrow; the more knowledge, the more grief.

I John 3:4 Everyone who makes a practice of sinning also practices lawlessness; sin is lawlessness.

Romans 12:19 Beloved, never avenge yourselves, but leave it to the wrath of God, for it is written, “Vengeance is mine, I will repay, says the Lord.”

Philippians 4:8 Finally, brothers, whatever is true, whatever is honorable, whatever is just, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is commendable, if there is any excellence, if there is anything worthy of praise, think about these things.

Psalm 11:5 The Lord tests the righteous, but his soul hates the wicked and the one who loves violence.

I Thessalonians 5:22 Abstain from every form of evil.

Psalm 101:3 will not set before my eyes anything that is worthless. I hate the work of those who fall away; it shall not cling to me.

11 Timothy 2:22 So flee youthful passions and pursue righteousness, faith, love, and peace, along with those who call on the Lord from a pure heart.

Colossians 3:5 Put to death therefore what is earthly in you: sexual immorality, impurity, passion, evil desire, and covetousness, which is idolatry.

Ephesians 5:11 Take no part in the unfruitful works of darkness, but instead expose them.

Ephesians 4:19 They have become callous and have given themselves up to sensuality, greedy to practice every kind of impurity.

Psalm 119:37 Turn my eyes from looking at worthless things; and give me life in your ways.

Isaiah 33:15-16 He who walks righteously and speaks uprightly, who despises the gain of oppressions, who shakes his hands, lest they hold a bribe, who stops his ears from hearing of bloodshed and shuts his eyes from looking on evil, he will dwell on the heights; his place of defense will be the fortresses of rocks; his bread will be given him; his water will be sure.

Romans 14:22 The faith that you have, keep between yourself and God. Blessed is the one who has no reason to pass judgment on himself for what he approves.

Mark 7:15 There is nothing outside a person that by going into him can defile him, but the things that come out of a person are what defile him.”

Luke 12:15-21 And he said to them, “Take care, and be on your guard against all covetousness, for one’s life does not consist in the abundance of his possessions.” And he told them a parable, saying, “The land of a rich man produced plentifully, and he thought to himself, ‘What shall I do, for I have nowhere to store my crops?’ And he said, ‘I will do this: I will tear down my barns and build larger ones, and there I will store all my grain and my goods. And I will say to my soul, Soul, you have ample goods laid up for many years; relax, eat, drink, be merry.”

3 John 3:11 Beloved, do not imitate evil but imitate good. Whoever does good is from God; whoever does evil has not seen God.

Colossians 2:20-23 If with Christ you died to the elemental spirits of the world, why, as if you were still alive in the world, do you submit to regulations— “Do not handle, Do not taste, Do not touch” (referring to things that all perish as they are used)—according to human precepts and teachings? These have indeed an appearance of wisdom in promoting self-made religion and asceticism and severity to the body, but they are of no value in stopping the indulgence of the flesh.

Colossians 3:5 To death therefore what is earthly in you: sexual immorality, impurity, passion, evil desires, and covetousness, which is idolatry.

II Corinthians 6:1-3 Working together with him, then, we appeal to you not to receive the grace of God in vain. For he says, “In a favorable time I listened to you, and in a day of salvation I have helped you.” Behold, now is the favorable time; behold, now is the day of salvation. We put no obstacle in anyone’s way, so that no fault may be found with our ministry,

James 3:11 Does a spring pour forth from the same opening both fresh and salt water?

Ezekiel 22:26 Her priests have violated my law, and have profound my Holy things, they have put no differences between the Holy and profound things, neither have they have showed differences between the unclean and the clean, and have hid their eyes from my Sabbaths, and I am profound among them.

John 1:11  Beloved, do not imitate evil but imitate good. Whoever does good is from God; whoever does evil has not seen God.

There are many, many, more scriptures, you just have to look in the Holy Bible to read them. But whatever you do please read them for yourself!

Lastly, “I the Lord God of all creation, still loves you. You are mine, and you belong to me. You don’t belong to the other one(satan). YOU BELONG TO ME! JESUS CHRIST OF NAZARETH. YOU BELONG TO THE ONLY CREATOR- GOD. You belong to GOD, because in the beginning of he Book of Genesis I called myself GOD, WHICH I AM GOD. Later on I shared with you MY other NAMES.  So to keep it simple I’ll just call MYSELF, GOD. Because that IS WHO I AM!.” You can call ME Lord GOD also, because that is WHO I AM!”

“SO I say once again, The life I gave you is no GAME! It’s very serious business, MY business, Don’t call you life a game, because it’s NOT! I’M NOT PLAYING!”

In this life you don’t get a second life, You have 1 life to live – the one I give you! Because Real Life is NO GAME!
