mine! yours! His!

Perhaps one of the best lessons I learned in life is simply–all that exists (physically) belongs to God. At best we are only caretakers. Scripture tells us that “God owns all the cattle on a thousand hills”. One should read Psalms 50.

Yes, we may have a deed or a receipt, but God holds us responsible for that property He has given us to use and also how we treat the property of other caretakers.

When I was a boy we rented a lot of houses and we always, always, upon vacating the houses put them in much better shape than when we moved in– even if they were filthy and poorly kept upon our original entrance.

I ask my dad about this one day after spending hours of working on and cleaning a rental house that was a shambles when we move in to it. He told me that this house did not belong to the so called owner, but rather to God and then explained what I call the “truth of ownership act”.

When people disrespect the property of others it also shows a disrespect for God the owner of all things. I know of a person who borrowed several items from a neighbor and later became angry at the neighbor. He threw a heavy item over the fence instead of taking it to him. The item could have been easily damaged. He was also seen doing other things to the neighbors house and property.

It was not long when a person driving through the neighborhood saw one of the children of that man. The child was seen disrespecting the property of another homeowner. I guess children do learn what they see and quickly pickup the attitudes of adults. I wonder in five or ten years if that man’s children will disrespect the property that he is the caretaker of–if no, they learned it from him.

God owns it all! At best we are only caretakers! I guess some people never ask themselves the question, “Am what I am about to do right or wrong?”

Punishment On Cross – Not Just Roman or Jewish

Crucifixion on a cross was not just Roman or Jewish. It was supposedly devised by Semiramis. This was an ancient type of capital punishment used by the Scythians, Romans, Persians, Greeks and Germans.

It was considered the most shameful and disgraceful form of capital punishment by the Romans and was reserved for assassins, rebels, and slaves that turned criminal.

There were three types of crosses. There was one that was in the form of an X another was built like a capital T. The other type which is mostly seen today looks more like a non-capital t or t.

Surprisingly most crosses were only a about ten feet in length. This meant that the criminal’s feet were less than two feet from the ground. Paintings and movies that show Jesus hung high in the air gives the wrong idea of reality.

Satanic-Series Two

Paranormal State (PS), Ghost Hunters (GH) as well as other groups need to read scripture (the Bible). Even though they have tidbits of scripture here and there, they fail to look at what scripture says related to the world of the spiritual and how that world works. Instead they use a great variety of what they think might be spiritual. They use American Indian, Mystic, Wicker, Readers, Mediums, etc in coming up with things that are spiritual. I am surprised that they haven’t used more animals—perhaps mice or toads.

PS still cannot understand that when people die there are two places prepared for them, one good and one not so good. One place is prepared for those who have a personal relationship with Jesus, the Messiah, also known as the Christ. The other place is prepared for those whose who have rejected the Love of Jesus and His Sacrifice on Calvary.

PS as well as Ghost Hunters (GH) also continue failure to understand that spiritual beings are eternal, intelligent and have wills. Since God (God, His Son being Jesus, the Messiah) created humans a little less than the angels, it is an obvious step that that they are eternal and intelligent. PS and GH act as if spiritual beings are ignorant and somewhat limited entities. Whereas they do have certain limitations based on what God and Satan place on them however, they are still above man who is tragically flawed by his sinful condition.

The spiritual entities that they attempt to gather research material on, is worthless due to the fact that they fail to understand the very nature who they are dealing. The demonic spiritual beings, who imitate individuals that have passed on, lead these so called investigators along as they desire.

PS and GH continue to fail to understand that these entities are eternal. They have seen from their creation the history of heaven and the universe. They are intelligent and communicate with one another. They have seen the history of individuals such as a parents, grand parents, and great grandparents and beyond. These entities not only have watched and watch people, but can understand and locate physical/material locations/items. They can be very accurate if they so desire about the pasts of others if allowed by their chain-of-command.

They are intelligent. They (collectively) know every language, read and gather information (technical and otherwise) and use it to their advantage. They can understand cameras, recorders, digital voice recorders, motion detectors, electronics as well as computers—even read over one shoulder and learn what one reads or writes. The entities lead PS and GH as well as other groups around. And being that they hate mankind and are masters of deceit as well as drama they use anyone they can. These spiritual entities continue to manipulate people to include those on PS and GH and those these groups attempt to help.

One must understand that knowing Jesus Christ, being reconciled to Him by the blood he shed on Calvary is not a religion—it is a relationship. Rejecting His or and the failure to give oneself to Him is saying “no” to God. Doing nothing towards having a relationship with God is the same as saying “no” to God. God seeks to know you personally through His Son, not through religion. Jesus Himself said, “I am the way the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father but by me.” Jesus was either a lunatic, a liar or who he claimed to be, “Lord.” To me He is Lord!
