Christmas

7And she gave birth to her firstborn son; and she wrapped Him in cloths, and laid Him in a manger, because there was no room for them in the inn.
8In the same region there were some shepherds staying out in the fields and keeping watch over their flock by night.
9And an angel of the Lord suddenly stood before them, and the glory of the Lord shone around them; and they were terribly frightened.
10But the angel said to them, "Do not be afraid; for behold, I bring you good news of great joy which will be for all the people;
11for today in the city of David there has been born for you a Savior, who is Christ the Lord.
12"This will be a sign for you: you will find a baby wrapped in cloths and lying in a manger."
13And suddenly there appeared with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host praising God and saying, 14"Glory to God in the highest, And on earth peace among men with whom He is pleased."

In The Beginning.

Genesis timeline:
Overview:
CREATION TO THE FLOOD
In the beginning was the Word (Jesus). He existed before He created. (John 1:1)
God created the Heavens (This He created first.)
God created the Earth
These refer to space, as in width, height, depth. Time was created later.
Genesis timeline:Overview:CREATION TO THE FLOODIn the beginning was the Word. He existed before He created. (John 1:1) God created the Heavens (This He created first.)God created the Earth These refer to space, as in width, height, depth. Time was created later.At first, time did not exist. Therefore, in eternity past:
• the Earth was formless, void, dark
• yet the Spirit of the Lord hovered over the Earth
• He created light and separated the light from the darkness. Notice it does not say He created darkness. That is because darkness is not a thing to behold; it is the absence of light, just as evil is the absence of God.
Timeline Begins:
God called the light “day” and the darkness “night”. Thusly time began, the first day.
Creation, including 7 days. Created Man and Woman on the sixth day.
The Fall. Adam and Eve sin and God evicts them from Eden.
Cain kills his brother Able and the Lord curses Cain.
Seth, brother of Cain and Able was born.
The family of Man grew. In those days they lived a long time. Methuselah lived to be 969 years old.
FLOOD TO ABRAHAM
Noah was born
ABRAHAM TO JOSEPH
JOSEPH IN EGYPT
DEATH OF JOSEPH

Here come the Liberals

May the Lord save the United States! Since the big win for the Democrats, you're now going to see what barely restrained liberalism will do. Sell you big pickup trucks and Escalades now while you can still get a good price. Hold on to your wallet and kids. No Nativity scenes this "holiday season" (Christmas). You thought the Republicans were spending too much? How do you spell illegal alien amnesty?

News Flash: A storm swept through election day which changed the course of a river in Washington State. The river took a distinct turn to the Left.

The Afghan Christian

I appreciate the Western World raising an outcry over this poor man who became a Christian 15 years ago. I hope all you Christians out there are praying for him. However, this stuff happens all the time. All Christians in the Western World need to be praying for the Persecuted Church http://persecution.com/ and raising an outcry over the horrendous treatment of Christians in the Islamic world. A story in the Voice of the Martyrs magazine tells of a man who had his arm chopped off by two men, had a picture of him, for speaking about Jesus. Please go to their web site mentioned above and pray specifically for those in China, Iran, Sudan, Pakistan, and other countries. You can not imagine. Pray for them. They are part of the same Church as we are.

Brian Cody Lapham-my brother

Brian was born today, February 20, 1957. He died when he was 40 in 1997, from an anuerism bursting in his heart. He would be 49 years old now. I love and miss my brother. We were close yet far apart.

I will write more about him later.

Iran

From the Islamic Republic News Agency, Jan 21, 2006:
"Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad said here Friday night that the culture ingrained in pure Islam can only be spread and promoted through kindness and benevolence.
President Ahmadinejad remarks were made during a meeting with Syrian elite Shiites and members of Damascus charity organizations.
"Today, humanity thirsts for the culture ingrained in pure Islam.
Muslims and Shiites, in particular, shoulder a heavy responsibility of promoting this culture," he said.
He, morover, said that irreproachable conduct would be the best way to introduce and promote Islamic culture, saying, "Kindness and service to people are two major pillars of conduct beyond reproach."

Nice guy? Okay, same day, same news service:

"President Ahmadinejad said Friday Palestine is the center of the final stages of the battle between Islam and arrogance, saying the Palestinian Intifada is progressing.
The plots hatched by enemies against Palestine should not be overlooked even for a moment, Ahmadinejad noted in a meeting with leaders of the Palestinian resistance movements in Damascus, Syria.
Ahmadinejad arrived in Damascus on Thursday upon the official invitation of his Syrian counterpart -- President Bashar al-Assad.
He spoke of the importance of the Palestinian cause and stressed the cause will not come be materialized if occupiers continue to occupy even a tiny part of Palestine's territories.
He stressed that unity, coordination and sympathy among resistance groups for the Palestinian cause is the only guarantee for Palestine's liberation.
The Islamic Republic of Iran supports the Palestinian cause of statehood and liberation of Islamic territories from occupiers, he added.
Elsewhere, he noted that one of the reasons westerners were lined up against Iran's undeniable right to gain peaceful nuclear technology was because of Iran's uncompromising support for Palestine.
The visit of Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad to Syria is considered another gesture of political support to Damascus and the Islamic resistance, said Hamas political leader Khaled Mishaal.
The Hamas official extended his thanks to the Iranian president for his firm stance on the Palestinian issue, saying the resistance group, Hamas, considers resistance the only way to resolve the Palestinians' rights and success of their avowed goals."

Note. The "occupiers" are the Jewish people. In other words, they want to destroy Isreal. All I did was copy and paste. Nice guy?
