I am an AMERICAN!!!
I am NOT a Paulbot, a Conservative, an Isolationist, a Tea-Partier,An Occupy Wall Streeter, A Constitutionalist, A Libertarian, A Republican, A Democrat, A Independent.
I AM an AMERICAN!!!
I am NOT "against" the world, I AM FOR AMERICA. I do not HATE "you over there", I LOVE America. I DO NOT DESIRE "you over there" HARM. I DESIRE peace "here". I DO NOT want to POLICE "you over there". I want FREEDOM "here".
I AM AN AMERICAN!!!
I BELIEVE in the celebration of the "collective" group of US known as AMERICA, not just "the individual". THOUGH if "The Family of America" are taken care of , then "the individual Of That Family" is secure, but not at THE EXPENSE of "the whole".
For this reason, attachment to the USA can not easily rely on PATRIOTIC emotions arising from ties of family or religious beliefs, or "traditional bonds" to place. Attachment to America must rely on Patriotic heroism arising from ties to ideals. America should transcend this land going forth into other lands, but by invitation and desired choice not invasion and man-handling! If a "people other there" DESIRE Freedom we must immulate it not castrate it. We must sing it as a cage bird sings...for though the bird may not free, still has a song in her heart! Sing it caged from the rooftops, til the power WITHIN cast-off that without which presses in to steal heart. WIN FROM WITHIN!
Our PATRIOTIC songs sings of the "LAND where our(founding) fathers died". Consider Russia and Germany, we never refer to America as the fatherland (patria) or motherland as did "they". We are a LAND of "ideals" and "values" and the FACT that America embraces people from all over the world, who come with different ways, speak different languages, and practice different religions. We have Never established a National Church or even articulated National Morality. Our tolerance, and even encouragement, of ethnic and religious pluralism is a GREAT NATIONAL STRENGTH.
YET on the "political" RED and BLUE sides of the Great Divide ...therein lies the "Hyphen in America". Which CAUSES you to chose a "side" OF AMERICA to which you belong and in THAT ACT OF CHOSING (cause) We as A People are STILL Divided against One Another "effect".
Oh my People Israel.. have you clung so tightly to despotism and greed, that You have forgotten WHO WE ARE? When tornadoes come and "passover your house" and stikes the neighbor, do you SIT there in self-righteousnous and think "they" got what they had coming? OR... as IS THE SPIRIT of America, you dive in pulling from the wreckage- LIFE...searching desperately throught the rummage IN HOPE of LIFE?
The State "according to our creed" EXISTS tto PROTECT THE RIGHTS "of individuals; the INDIVIDUAL does NOT exist to PROMOTE the "glory of the state". Our INDIVIDUAL rights "encourage" our PRIVATE pursuit of happiness and prosperity--within the limits set by LAW, but not necessarily with a view to WHAT WOULD PROMOTE "the COMMON or PUBLIC good". NO wonder the BIG BOX "cookie cutter" Politicians cut of the same cloth of The Establishment can NOT permit the Big Bad Wolf of The Fed to relinguish the grip of the sheep, and grant The Truth that States have the right to provide good pasture for the Sheep of America!
We jeolously GUARD our freedoms and our privacy, and when "the establishment" of the NWO Preys upon that "jeolousy" baits us with deeply deceptive encroachments upon them...and we lend to "them" our VOICES of FREEDOM saying "YES Master of the Great American Plantation, go forth and Protect US for in YOU we Trust"...Go "over there" and keep it from our shores ALL THE WHILE WE SURRENDER from within with the creations of Homeland Security and Bigger Government and in ignorance and deception do not see "it" IS here mascarading amongst us in "counterfeit" forms of Freedom with "illusionary security and prosperity".
I ask you, I DARE you to SEARCH your soul and being and ask YOURSELF what it IS to truly say I AM AN AMERICAN. When we can "recall" those IDEALS, and STAND IN THEM, then we will be standing in the gap, bridging that Continental DIVIDE between The Red and The Blue, and in that ACT will be showing the WORLD what is is when we put the WHITE back "inbetween" The Red and The Blue. Turn off the BooB Tube, Turn on YOUR HEART. Search it. Listen to IT. and then ACT. I love you so much and until WE UNITE, we shall all be slaves on this Great Plantation irregardless of the color of our skin!

Let Us United Under God Put the white BACK "in between" The Red and The Blue
Its always been a curiosity of mine, how some are quick to say, they're Republican or Democrat, Liberal or Conservative, Gay, Straight, White, Black, Christian, Atheist, Jewish, Hindu, Muslim, White Collar, Blue Collar and so on. WE ascribe to groups as if they somehow define who we are. But, what if we courageously just listened to one another? What if we adopt the idea of respect for one another? Would we learn to collectively partake in the one group we're ALL a part of? Humanity. Our CULTURAL IDENTITY= ONE NATION under God.
Its been a long long journey through the fog of spin-doctors and deception...but if folks will only do as I and many others are beginning to do for OURSELVES "read up" on Ron Pauls Gold Standard and His "message" of Liberty and Freedom from The Tyranny of A Group of Private Bankers who have WEASLED themselves into OUR Free Enterprise SYSTEM via their Federal Reserve SYSTEM and in "effect" have STOLEN The Wealth of Our Nation! Until The People truly WAKE UP to the BEHAVIOUR MODIFICATION TOOL that is in place to Prevent US from being Rich, and in "effect" Keep The People In Bondage much like it was in the days of Pharoah. If we could STUDY The Soviet Union, and Egypt during The Time "before" God Raised Up Moses to "deliver" The People. . In likemanner so shall it be in these end-times we are living!
Consider The Soviet CASE: to my knowledge no BUSINESS ever "went-under" in The Soviet SYSTEM, but SOCIETY IN GENERAL grew "poorer". Think of THAT Soviet "system" applied to the Banking INDUSTRY in America and you have The Fed. The advent of The Fed basically represented the beginning of the end of laissez-faire. It turned the entire money system over to public management on behalf o POLITICAL "causes"... in the name of Illusionary Prosperity! I say its TIME to lay hold on OUR LAND "in the name of Jesus Christ" and DRIVE OUT THESE MONEYCHANGERS from our Midst! Stay focused on the ISSUE of Freedom, not having your VOTE chopped up and swayed to one of the New World Order Globalization Candidates! This is the DEEP Truth at stake here! America is UNIQUE...E Pluribus Unum, but "they" have so desired to CAUSE the CITIZENS to focus elsewhere on the GLOBAL agenda, not The American Agenda! This is the Great Divide and SOURCE of Confusion and Deception!
Consider Egypt and we have to go back to Genesis 47:15 "So when THE MONEY failed in the LAND of Egypt and in the LAND of Canaan, All the Egyptians came to Joseph and said "Give us Bread, for why should we die in your presense. For The Money has FAILED."
Our grandparents generation were SOLD a bad Bill of Goods in the guise of The Federal System, and took a people and preyed upon their FEAR and arrested the Trust of Our People In God and The Abundance of The Universe, into Trust in a Financial Tower of Babel.
Newt may be eloquent in speech and can do a great debate dance with Obama. But at the end of the day it still ALL boils down to returning the Natural Resourses of This Nation BACK to The People, Returning The Wealth of This Nation BACK to the People, Limited Government, States Rights...and Putting The CITIENS of America FIRST...not The Elite. Our VOTE should be for FREEDOM, and the PRINCIPLES of Our Founding Fathers not the Transformation that erodes our CITIZENSHIP of its Freedom for Bondage of The New World Order!
Look to the track records of Integrity, not just spin-doctored Speeches. Even I at times have a hard time getting across my points eloquently but I keep drilling and shining the Light on THE ISSUES, and conquering DIVIDE in an effort to UNITE our people for the COMMON GOOD. The Politicians mostly seek to have us chose a SIDE of the issue and remain Polarized. I wish that the people would wake up. Watch the Hannity interview again. SARAH DID NOT ENDORSE NEWT. She specifically said that. Remember 08 and how McCain would not vet Obama the way Sarah did. His campaign tried to stifle her and when that didn't work, they went on the attack on her from the bunker, aiding and abetting the Obama (NWO) campaign. This is what made her the star that she is today among conservatives. Do not get lost in this battle. It is a campaign war being picked up after 08'. We need Newt to take down Romney. He is the best debater out there and to lose him now will make Romney the nominee. Newt Gingrich will go down in flames, but he WILL take Romney with him. Wake up America!!! And get "positioned" for A CONSERVATIVE non-establishment New World Order Politician to take the helm. We need a REPRESENTATIVE of The People, The CITIZENS of America! Lies "sharpenedeth" the ears and makes one KEENER to actually HEARING THE TRUTH! Wake Up My People! America is rising, but BABYLON is going down.
Only in a UNITED VOICE declaring SET OUR PEOPLE FREE will The Dream Of MLK, The Mission of Christ come to fruition.
Again, I ask you to consider the Truth and not what "they" say about Ron Paul not having a chance and NOT voting for him....this is once again The Elite and Special Interests who Work for the CAUSE Of The New World Order ONLY, and do not care one iota for We The Citizens of This Great Nation. "They" KNOW the POWER That We The People have and IF WE EXERCISE IT at the Ballot Box....can send then PACKING! But "they" smear with nasty campaigns. The BIG BOX "PARTY" speaks to the "Liberty seeking Americans" to sway their VOTE for "fear" of this or that. They have "confused" The People into doing The Devils Bidding by drawing VOTES away from FREEDOM, and cast onto a candidate who is STILL at "heart" is ANTI America for The Cause of The New World Order working for those BIG BUCKS who have backed them. WE are held accountable To God for His House. America was to be a place of refuge for Those who desired REST (Sabbath) and escape (Exodus) from Tyranny an came To America!In "establishment" Washington I see only Eunicks.
As a Citizen of America, I plant a stake in the American Soil and Ideals for which we identify ourselves, as individuals and a People. IN the absence of rightly dividing the premise to which America is founded upon and the usurping of the White House via varied SEATS who "attempt" to drive this ship in their New World Order Agenda is ignorance to the nth degree.
We as a People must learn to get back to the CORE values of what do we look up to and revere? That larger "community" and IDEALS are we atttached and devoted? FOR WHAT are we willing to fight and sacrifice? For in "forgetting" The masses have been hood-winked and caught being "assimulated" into the LARGEST COMMUNITY (New World Order) in existence "founded" on the Elitist Cause that we The "small minded" People need to be Governed and thusly because we sit quietly, tails tucked between our legs, looking to the Great Master of The New World Order Plantation to set us free, yet shackled us even tighter for in being shackled so long The People have forgotten THE STRENGTH that lies WITHIN us as A People United UNDER God, and have allowed The Left and their "social agendas" to divide us against one another as the Right drives another wedge.
My "battle" is one of Spiritual matters Of America ...on the reigning ideology that welcomes immigrants to our shores YET no longer calls for their assimilation into OUR "melting pot" but instead celebrates their diversity, multiplicity, and cultural distinctiveness" the political "unum" of America is lost amidst THE FOCUS on the multicultural "pluribus".
As I have said recently to the Construction Worker on my house who is Hispanic who took over the job of renovations after I had to fire the White worker for being drunk in the middle of doing the work and making such a mess by weeks end. Our "conversation" was on the recent "immigrants" (and their children) usually KNOW from the "fresh EXPERIENCE" how their LIVES HAVE IMPROVED by coming to the United States of AMERICA, yet the "well-off" children, the NATURAL -BORN children knwoing little of history from A Biblical Perspective truly understand the Political Agendas of "some of The Leadership" taking up residence in the White House, and Congress and The House of Representatives...who by "their" mission attempt to SIMULATE USA "into" their BORG-LIKE NWO and they take for granted the PRIVILEDGE of an American CITIZENSHIP amd prosperity, and lend ear to the Talking Heads, intellectuals without Heart, who tread HEAVILY over the ink of The Constitution, opinionated PROPANGANDA media machine turning out spin-doctered words of infection making SICK the MINDS AND HEARTS of America as politicians TALK of Globalization and the NEED to "regard" America (and The People make up her) as Citizens of The World.
EUNICKS! CBC! GOB!
Between such cosmopolitan universalism and ethnic and racial "tribalism", NATIONAL pride and attachment have become disparaged, and in some French Quarters, and rooms filled with the stagnant smoke from overpriced cigars, and select Cognac filled Oval offices and War Rooms....been made OBSOLETE!
But I say to you National Identity and Citizenship in America face deeper and more permanent challenges, some linked to the special CHARACTER of our Liberal democratic republic. While The American REPUBLIC was founded as -----and I might add REMAINS----a Nation not of birth,lineage, or inherited monies and ways, BUT OF IDEAS...the equal rights to life, liberty and the PURSUIT of happiness; freedom of religion, and religious toleration; majority rule (and thats not taking a poll of 25 people out of a nation and the majority of THAT number sets precedence).No , the MAJORITY RULE with minority rights (not affirmative action either). ANYONE who embraces these IDEAS is in Spirit ...AMERICAN, and to those who make up that number is AMERICA.(And anyone who does not make up those ideals have no ROOM to take up residence in this COUNTRY!)
The time has come for a LOVE REVOLUTION in the spirit of America. Maybe God in His infinate wisdom knows that once a people taste FREEDOM, and something comes along to STEAL it from them, then a PEOPLE of ethics and priniciple WILL RISE UP....that MINORITY rights standing on the ROCK and FOUNDATION of The Church, The Constitution, The Truth, "guiding others" for an INFORMED PEOPLE can and WILL I MIGHT ADD become a supportive people.
Win from WITHIN! For what is IN YOU is how one is baited. If GREED exists, oh the establishment will goad you with a bubble loan so that you may run out and party hard, vacation and play...but when the bubble bursts...who laughs? They are....Just next door to me I bear witness to this. A loan taken out on a paid for home, back when "the bubble" said homes are worth 100,000 in this neighborhood and the banks loaned it. Today, that house has been bought by Fannie Mae, and I talked to a Real-Estate Agent representing Fannie Mae (who for the informed TRULY KNOW THE FEDERAL RESERVE owns Freddie and Fannie)....and today that house is on the Market for a mere $21,000.00 They in all deceitfulness LENT those loans (scientifically created the bubble) and then they turn around and acquire our ASSETS cheaply.
Do not be swayed by the new tactics of DIVISION in statements which illude Ron Paul can NOT win;therefore, swing YOUR VOTE in fear of what "they" say. I will end with a comment from a new friend on Facebook...as I feel she does speak eloquently the FEAR of many of you the readership.
THE READER WRITES... "they" say Ron Paul cannot win ... That by splitting the votes between the 2/3 that don't like Romney, among the remaining candidates - Romney will take it and "seal the deal". I want to vote my heart ... Ron Paul ... but will that be a wasted vote? Santorum may be the only one with a chance to beat Romney .... it feels like the devil you don't know may be worse than the devil you do! I guess that's politics... it's impossible to succeed as our founding fathers hoped and promised without a man like Ron Paul ... but CAN his true message be heard? It's just such a foreign concept from the status-quo... and people fear change ... although the SAY that's what they're voting for :)

EUHARLEE she laughs as she runs
Every once in a while a private conversation had MUST be shared openly. This is one of those times "for me". One to expose my flaw (I shouldn't have called him an old fart)...not very lady-like or Christian. The rest I share so as to not have The Devil running to and fro saying what was NOT said. I EXPOSE MYSELF, and Let The Spirit guide "others" into the MEAT and understanding of WHY I chose to "openly" SHARE this conversation. In Jesus Name Amen.
"Adventist Challenged" I love it! Never have I had a man so detest that God just might be using a women to TEACH....(giggles). As I went to His Wall this morning I see that this one has unfriended me. His INFO on Grad School is:

HI Teresa,
First I wish you a very blessed Sabbath, the Lords day, HE made for man and not man for the Sabbath.
My name is Yuergen , I’m 72 and was born into the SDA church. Left, CAME OUT, to be separated from the Harlot & Whore of Babylon, in oder not to touch the unclean thing and get unclean myself. Rev. 18:1-5
As I see, you call yourself a protestant. May I asked, if you’re an Sabbath (Saturday) keeping protestant or an Sun-Day keeping protestant?
Do you believe in the Trinity or do you believe in the ONLY TRUE GOD and his Son Jesus Christ? John 17:3
Brotherly greetings: Yuergen K.
TeresaDSmith Mercyministries
I am unique my dear heart for I believe there is not ONE specific DAY of Sabbath, but that the Lord's REST (Sabbath) be EVERYDAY in Him.
Yes, you are most correct in that I if I must declare myself a "thing" I am a PROTESTANT.
Yuergen, it is tricky your question: "Do you believe in the Trinity or do you believe in the ONLY TRUE GOD and his Son Jesus Christ? John 17:3"
umm John 17:3 :17:3 And this is life eternal, that they might know thee the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom thou hast sent.
I am most likely very unique in my take of this: I see God in 3 "persons" (God The Father, God The Son, God The Holy Spirit) while also I see the 3 "offices" of God (The Godhead, The Messiah, The Comforter).
I have had this particular conversation so many times over on the past 3 years that I have literallly lost count.
I can summise my beliefs in a blog post I wrote as follows: (and again I state LET US RESPECT each other with DIGNITY and RESPECT....if you disagree don't just SAY OR WRITE IT...present you case as will I, but I do say at the end of the day, IF WE BOTH truly LOVE THE LORD, then that should be our common ground, and let differences fall by the wayside, for am sick to death of combative spirits who seek only in self-righteousnous to be RIGHT, I say Let The Word reign in US BOTH, and may we both be better for the "debate" NOT "argument"......AGREE???
Now for my blog post on my beliefs:
Now for my blog post on my beliefs:
one:There is no Rapture and the Anti-Christ (Satan) will be in Jerusalem soon

Teresa,
then you believe that the 10 commandments have been abolished on the Cross?
Well, then I have to say good bye, because protestant americans are building right now the image of the beast (america) by reaching out over the gulf to the Vatican.
Where soon, you’re going to worship the SUN-DAY to keep it holy for the Beast/Pope.
I cannot work with someone who believes in doctrines made by man and the Devil.
It’s a shame, but Christ tell me, not to mingle with the unclean symbolised thru falsehood and error Faith/Truth.
God be with you sister and give you heavenly eyesalve that you me see the difference between falsehood & truth. J.K.
(EUHARLEE...she laughs as she runs!).....
Adventism Challenged
I guess, you’re a bid in the “New Age Theology” movement. You’re truly working with unclean Spirits. Believing in a 3 personality God, is spiritistic and unclean. If you would be smart, you would google and find out that the Trinity has its origin in the babylonian pagan religion, as the holy Sunday worship and the eternal human spirit.
You have established your own religion and that is a big NO-NO......what the Bible concerns.
God bless: Yuergen K.
(EUHARLEE:she laughs as she runs)...............
Adventist Challenged
believe in a Rapture. That did happened when Christ died, many graves opened.
I believe that Satan is coming as an angel of light and will tell the world, and you, that he is Christ and will perform such powerful miracles, that the very elect will fall to their knees and worship Satan.
God hates the Falsehood offshoot ministries, especially when led by women who need to sit down and shut up in the presents of Christ and Men.
I would hate to be your husband Teresa. God is the head of Christ ( biblically ) and Christ is the head of Man and the Man is the head of the Women.
You don’t believe it, we go apart.....Your ways are not my ways and neither they are Christ’s way.

Don’t worry Teresa. Christ will deal with you personally......Your name is written in the big black book in heaven.

I am in no need of rebuking. I KNOW who I am. I KNOW who I serve, and what I stand for. As for taking The Lord's Name in VAIN...I KNOW what that means also. Since You have already summed me up, I will offer more meat for the slaughter in my writing Thou Shall Not take the Name of The Lord in VAIN. Please go STUDY:
http://www.musingsandramblingsoftee.blogspot.com/2011/04/keeping-covenant-thou-shalt-not-take.html
I DO NOT, and more importantly in the very near FUTURE will not. I serve HIM and HIM alone, and do not allow the chains of DOGMATIC RELIGION put Him back on the cross. He went there set me FREE, I accept that blood, Believe in the 10 commandments as LAW of which they really roll into TWO (but I know you are wise enough to already know that also) and at the end of the Day The Greatest is LOVE.
Having said that, I am not sure how we got on on the wrong foot. You have been "short" with me and I having been very tired and having been drained from my week. I want to say forgive me for any "tone" as I forgive you...But should you truly desire to discuss the Word fine BUT you already have all the answers.
For me the most important is The Blood, accepting it makes me BLAMELESS BEFORE HIM as along as I REPENT of SIN.
I don't get tripped up in the small stuff, and allow MAN or WOMAN to judge me, for He alone is my Judge.
The other most important thing is to KNOW that The Anti-Christ whom is none other that Satan, The Son of Perdition, along with the Fallen Angels will be booted out of Heaven to this Earth very soon (rev 12) that is IF your church allows you to read Revelations as Many say no need to read it for you are gonna be gone when He comes for The Church and they miss the mark aby mistaking The Church for when John was "taken there" so as to be given Revelation knowledge By Christ to plant here with WE who desire to stay behind (actually ALL will be here no one is going anywhere) but I use that term tongue in cheek as so many want to be the first one "taken" when the Rapture comes.
Anyway, I prepare my mind and sharpen my self for THAT day of being delivered up before the Synagogue Of Satan, and I do not get pulled off and side-lined by people who have not spent any amount of time with me to KNOW me, and think they "have my number"...how silly of anyone who begins to think that.
If YOU were to truly study me, and KNOW me...oh dear one what a wealth of LOve, Mercy, and so much you would gain.
But you have deduced me to a wolf in sheeps clothing and one who would ravish your study group. I am not in need of another study group. I have plenty, and actually spend more time alone in The Word, with the Strongs Concordance, and The Holy SPirit who gives to ALL who seek ample wisdom in Him. RELIGION I HATE, Me Father I love. Jesus Christ THE MESSIAH I accept as His ONLY BEGOTTEN Son, claim His Blood, and I walk out my Faith and beliefs EVERYDAY. I may fall short AS WE ALL DO. but I will leave My Judgement IN HIS HANDS....not yours dear precious one.
I pray you a delightful day, and a blessed one in Him. Shake lose the preconceived idea of you think you know me.....and read my blog....I am no fool and neither and I a self-appointed WOMAN MINISTER.....I chose to SHARE my life, and GIVE BACK the Grace that He sacrificed and gave to me.
And even I will not sit here and pretend to say that I KNOW you are a wolf...for I haven't spent enough time with you either...and a WISE person doesn't make those kinds of flippant judgements of another. I think somehow we just got off on the wrong foot and are out of step in this dance.As far as Taking The LORDS name in vain....here you go....please GO STUDY!

Have a blessed day!
EUHARLEE!!! My final SAY.........(as follows)...
TeresaDSmith Mercyministries
YK
HEAVEN is where ever the PRESENSE of Christ is. Christ is In HEAVEN "right now" SITTING ON THE THRONE AT THE RIGHT HAND OF GOD (as are ALL at this moment "the good the bad the ugly" as NO ONE has been "sentenced" to HELL outside of the Son of Perdition (which is Satan himself) . But that "sentence" hasn't been carried out YET. HELL is the GREAT WHITE THRONE Judgement at the END of THE MILLENIUM (the 1000 years of teaching aka THE LORDS DAY) in which those who did not take part TODAY of the 1st ressurrection (mind) and overcome the Beast (Deut 32, Rev 15) are taught TRUTH.
It is during this 1000 years that Satans "presense" (his evil spirit and his body) are locked away where NO INFLUENCE negatively can affect the teachings at this time as The Lord has set-up His Kingdom right here on EArth. God's Elect will teach. THEN after the 1000 years Satan will be "released again" (and I say AGAIN because he will in the very near future be HERE ON EARTH defacto playacting Jesus in his "office" of The Anti-Christ just as Our Lord and Saviour ALREADY came in His "office" as The Messiah)...Satan will be released THEN AGAIN at the end to "test" those who were taught in SPRIRITUAL BODIES during the 1000 years. If folks "overcome" THEN that is partaking of the 2nd Ressurection. You either "overcome" then or AT THAT TIME is Hell which is marching into the Lake of Fire (and the soul PERISHES) meaning is blotted out (which is a very interesting term when studied deeper).
So many of the churches teach Hell like its a literal Lake of fire and people are over there in our site and we see them "burning and sizzling " like a piece of Bacon. This always cracks me up (on one level and then makes me sad at the bad teaching, and then ANGERS me that there are those who get taught this malarky).....When someone is "blotted out" it means that they are ERASED from MEMORY as if they never even existed. This is how there can be no TEARS in Heaven...for how can we rejoice when looking over "there" at someone WE LOVE and they are in pain. LOVE doesn't allow suffering.....
So my dear precious child of God. Get your facts straight because this is SERIOUS BUSINESS. Satan WILL be cast out of Heaven (that DIMENSION) and physically HE WILL BE HERE ON EARTH. His HEAD-quarters will be Jerusalem. The Dome of The Rock where he will be "selling the world" that he is Jesus. If you can pinch yourself and it hurts then we are still in the flesh and this FAKE is an imposter! The DECEIVER who "deceives" the whole world. He will be the Religious BEAST. This is a TIME OF SIFTING dear one....
I am not against YOU Y.K. But I say do not be deceived. We can agree to disagree on all the other "religion" doctrine and "dogma" but do NOT take this last part lightly.
And this is not PROUDNESS standing in the way...for you see I HAVE dug deep to find the TREASURE OF TRUTH, and now I pray for that eyesalve for you....
Only time will tell...but when it comes to ones soul....not a thing to take lightly....
BLESSINGS,
Teresa (a self-made Woman of God...By the GRACE and Authority of Christ. ELECT Chosen just for a moment in time as such, An ELECT who WILL NOT bow a knee to Satan in the very near future)
Now, to you the reader. I say prepare your minds. I attempted to present FACTS line on line, and not get into a combative spirit. I usually do not involve myself to this level. But this was a person who hopped on my Facebook Status THEN went to my email with all this. So though this is an on-going engagement from several days now and is chronologically in Flashback.
There is a LESSON IN IT FOR ALL (myself included and why I chose to be OPEN about this encounter) FOR ME, I needed to remember how Satan TEMPTED Christ with Scripture. If you will recall in this encounter here he stated he knew that Satan comes disquised as an angel of light and will be performing miracles in the sight of man AND YOU (ah heres where he tweeked it) that the very Elect WILL BOW DOWN TO SATAN. (oh dear precious children THAT IS NOT WHAT THE WORD says...it says IF IT WERE POSSIBLE... Matthew 24:24, "For there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets, and shall shew great signs and wonders; insomuch that, if it were possible, they shall deceive the very elect." Can you see just how it was so "religiously" tweeked. THAT IS SATANS METHOD OF OPERATION using the Word.
So,what exactly started this latest attack? I pondered where did it begin? On my post yesterday in my defense of America, her IDEALS, etc....this "certain person" popped on the scene publically in commentary, but when I fought with TRUTH PUBLICALLY, then he went privately to email.) I thank God for yesterday for it WAS A GREAT EYE-OPENER...and I know was "permitted" for my edification.
Yesterday Morning my status:
Teresa DSmith Mercyministries
What's on your mind? A comment in my STATUS a few days back on Ron Paul/Sara Palin... I am just getting to answer OPENLY here.@ Adventism Challenged To answer your questions "
*Where have you been when America needed you decades ago?"
Umm, the best way to say this is to say it "in Babylon in the wilderness" in the midst of the battle of self-will and God's Will, war of spirit versus flesh, caught in sin drowning along with many of you being DECEIVED and LIED TO and finding my way OUT OF HER lost and searching finding my place in this tired worn out ole world marching onward in this LOVE REVOLUTION and Redemption of The Body The House of Israel.
*The only balls in Washington are these men, who always have to strife for War. America is a War-Mongul.
I am not sure of the thought process here if you are saying that the only Balls in Washington are the MEN OF WAR? I see only Eunicks. As far as America being a War-Mongul....I beg the differ!
As a Citizen of America, I plant a stake in the American Soil and Ideals for which we identify ourselves, as individuals and a People, and I for one am NO War-Mongul. IN the absence of rightly dividing the premise to which America is founded upon and the usurping of the White House via varied SEATS who "attempt" to drive this ship in their New World Order Agenda is ignorance to the nth degree.
We as a People must learn to get back to the CORE values of what do we look up to and revere? That larger "community" and IDEALS are we atttached and devoted? FOR WHAT are we willing to fight and sacrifice? For in "forgetting" The masses have been hood-winked and caught being "assimulated" into the LARGEST COMMUNITY in existence "founded" on the Elitist Cause that we The "small minded" People need to be Governed and thusly because we sit quietly, tails tucked between our legs, looking to the Great Master of The New World Order Plantation to set us free, yet shackled us even tighter for in being shackled so long The People have forgotten THE STRENGTH that lies WITHIN us as A People United UNDER God, and have allowed The Left and their "social agendas" to divide us against one another as the Right drives another wedge.
My "battle" is one of Spiritual matters Of America ...on the reigning ideology that welcomes immigrants to our shores YET no longer calls for their assimilation into OUR "melting pot" but instead celebrates their diversity, multiplicity, and cultural distinctiveness" the political "unum" of America is lost amidst THE FOCUS on the multicultural "pluribus".
As I have said recently to the Constrution Worker on my house who is Mexican who took over the job of renovations after I had to fire the White worker for being drunk in the middle of doing the work and making such a mess by weeks end. OUr conversation was on the recent "immigrants" (and their children) usually know from fresh experience how their lives have improved by coming to America KNOW from the "fresh EXPERIENCE" how their LIVES HAVE IMPROVED by coming to the United States of AMERICA, yet the "well-off" children, the NATURAL -BORN children knwoing little of history from A Biblical Perspective truly understand the Political Agendas of "some of The Leadership" taking up residence in the White House, and Congress and The House of Representatives...who by "their" mission attempt to SIMULATE USA "into" their BORG-LIKE NWO an dthey take for granted the PRIVILEDGE of an American CITIZENSHIP amd prosperity, and lend ear to the Tlaking Heads, intellectuals without Heart, who tread HEAVILY over the ink of The Constitution, opinionated PROPANGANDA media machine turning out spin-doctered words of infection making SICK the MINDS AND HEARTS of America as politicians TALK of Globalization and the NEED to "regard" America (and The People make up her) as Citizens of The World.
EUNICKS! CBC! GOB!
Between such cosmopolitan universalism and ethnic and racial "tribalism", NATIONAL pride and attachment have become disparaged, and in some French Quarters, and rooms filled with the stagnant smoke from overpriced cigars, and select Cognac filled Oval offices and War Rooms....OBSOLETE!
But I say to you National Identity and Citizenship in America face deeper adn more permanet challenges, some linked to the special CHARACTER of our Liberal democratic republic. While The American REPUBLIC was founded as -----and I might add REMAINS----a Nation not of birth,lineage, or inherited monies and ways, BUT OF IDEAS...the equal rights to life, liberty and the PURSUIT of happiness; freedom of religion, and religious toleration; majority rule (and thats not taking a poll of 25 people out of a nation and the majority of THAT number sets precedence).No , the MAJORITY RULE with minority rights (not affirmative action either). ANYONE who embraces these IDEAS is in Spirit ...AMERICAN, and to those who make up that number is AMERICA.
The time has come for a LOVE REVOLUTION in spirit. Maybe God in His infinate wisdom knows that once a people taste FREEDOM, and somethign comes along to STEAL it from them, then a PEOPLE of ethics and priniciple WILL RISE UP....that MINORITY rights stanidng on the ROCK and FOUNDATION of The Church, The Truth, guiding others for an INFORMED PEOPLE can and WILL I MIGHT ADD become a supportive people. For what is IN YOU is how one is baited. If GREED exists, oh the establishment will goad you with a buble loan so that you may run out and party hard, vacation and play...but when the bubble bursts...who laughs? They are....Just next door to me I bear witness to this. A loan taken out on a paid for home, back when "the bubble" said homes are worth 100,000 in this neighborhood and the banks loaned it. Today that house has been bought by Fannie Mae, and I talked to a Real-Estate Agent representing Fannie Mae (who for the informed TRULY KNOW THE FEDERAL RESERVE owns Freddie and Fannie)....and today that house is on the Market for a mere $21,000.00 They in all deceitfulness LENT those loans (scientifically created the bubble) and then they turn around and acquire our ASSETS cheaply.
IN conclusion to this tangent of my answer you write:
*If there is no war, America is going down......So, my friends, prepare for the soon coming war against Iran
Again I in my simplistic HEART begs the differ. America and her ideals will STAND THE TEST of TIME. No my dear BABYLON IS FALLING, come out of her, and get not caught when the "system" comes a realing.
So I ask? Is acceptance of certain BASIC politcal or philosophical IDEALS as I previously discussed enough to make CITIZENS willing to serve and sacrifice for their country in time of need.
Oh how I look around and think if We Would all pull our monies OUT OF THE FEDERAL System, Co-OP and sit back and watch BERNANKE scramble to stop it from overnight FALLING here in America, and then "systematically" like dominoes around this GLOCAL ECOMONY....down, down, down, and then what is LEFT IS REAL. NOt propped up, piped up, deceptiively held, Oh my it may be tight and I FOR ONE KNOW how tight it could be for I have in my own small world been experiencing down-sizing, getting the knife out and cutting the budget of my own life so as to devote my self to The Lord, To this CAUSE, This Love Revolution....where my heart is for The PEOPLE, as I judge the Cause of the Poor, and Pray To The Father that Vengence Come upon these mindless leaders whose heart is merely for only the butts they pat in future preparations of SELF-GAIN!
Lord ready me........
In conclusion: THE POST THAT SPARKED IT ALL!
OMG...I just have to post this as STATUS. I posted on Ron Paul, and reference about Sarah Palin and what she accomplished as CEO (Governor) in Alaska with BIG OIL, and transferred the RESOURCES back to the PEOPLE (putting citizens FIRST) of Alaska with. I merely stated my thoughts that Ron Paul could DO THE SAME with BIG ELITE BANKERS (Fed Reserve) and RESTORE the wealth OF THE PEOPLE "back" TO THE CITIZENS of The USA. And for one to actually post this to my page is like OMG...beam me up Scottie! Here is my reply:
Rebellion to tyrants is obedience to God. It is error which needs the support of government, truth can stand on it's own. -Thomas Jefferson
GOD IS JUST AND I TREMBLE THAT HIS JUSTICE CAN NOT SLEEP FOREVER!!!
the EFFECT of government coercion is:
"to make one half the people fools and the other half hypocrites, and to support roguery and error all over the earth"
TRUTH IS A RADICAL IDEA TO AN INDOCTRINATED MIND!!!
Cowardice asks the question is it safe? Expediency asks the question is it politic?Vanity asks the question is it popular?
AHH~ BUT CONSCIENCE ASKS THE QUESTION IS IT RIGHT AND JUST?
And there comes a time when one must take a position that is neither safe, nor politic, nor popular but one must take it because it is right.
@ Keven as I click on your link I read it with dismay. Not only in the perplexing propaganda of the "political" arena, but in the summationary conclusion from which this writer deduces to summise the HEART of Sarah Palin and "justifies" it with the dogmatic INCONCISE reference to a GOOD OLE BOY ESTABLISHEMENT VIEW of scripture. For it reeks of a putrid aroma of so called intelligent man whose "gas" made a u-turn and got lost in its "intended" place of exit, making its escape into the blog forum and speech in his stupidy in this post on Sarah:
If Sarah Palin is an Evangelical, why is she even speaking in public?
According to 1 Timothy 2:11-12: “A woman should learn in quietness and full submission. I do not permit a woman to teach or to have authority over a man; she must be silent.”
According to 1 Tim 2:8-11: I will therefore that men pray every where, lifting up holy hands, without wrath and doubting. In like manner also, that women adorn themselves in modest apparel, with shamefacedness and sobriety; not with broided hair, or gold, or pearls, or costly array; But (which becometh women professing godliness) with good works. Let the woman learn in silence with all subjection.
What say ye, Sarah? Are you truly into your Bible or do you just want to use that book to further your's and Israel's schemes for world domination?
Instead of what say ye Sarah? I say What say YE? Should she "learn with all subjection" to THE ESTABLISHMENT, to BIG OIL, to THE GOOLD OLE NETWORK at the EXPENSE and COST of American Freedom and Liberty, and JUSTICE for all? Had she came upon the scene scratching her crotch, smoking a stogie, and dousing it into her $250.00 ounce of Cognac...in SILENT behind closed doors of NO Transparency, where only THE ELITE and a select FEW hear, or YELL FROM THE ROOF-TOPS that THE TIME IS NOW...to shift the ABSOLUTE BS in Washington, and DECLARE freedom the the enslavement of stupor that the lost UNRIGHTEOUS men such as Harry Reed, AND WOMEN such as Nancy Pelosi CHATTER on and on about?
GOD FORBID! Keven I am not "attacking" YOU but the absolute audacity of this article is desirous of BEANO.

I will end with this prayer: Father I come before you in the Name of Jesus Christ, kneeling before YOUR throne of Grace and Mercy for ONLY you can Grant it. I ask forgiveness for my err in behaviour in dealing with this one who comes "at" The Woman. Satan is GOOD at coming...thank you Lord for this lesson. I more than ever understand ..., AND AS A SHEEP BEFORE HER SHEARERS IS DUMB. For you took the stripes that we may be healed YOU PAID THE PRICE FOR SIN stepping down from Heaven coming to this Earth in Human Form showing us HOW TO GET IT DONE. So when my enemies (and they are mine because FIRST they are yours...they received YOU not, and they shall receive me not either for only those IN WHOM it is destined from the beginning to do thy WIll and work in these end-times shall HEAR because they ARE yours. The TIME IS NOW to come out of confusion, to wait upon you, to sound the trumpet, TO DECLARE the Day of Vengence and Get ready for the Battle at hand. Lord Ready Me. Lord ready WE who are yours and let us not be side-tracked by nay-sayers whom have not The Truth from the beginning. Lord, Today I draw that line in the sand. Here and no further! It is TIME to take back "stolen property" and not to surrender any more ground to The Devil. NO NEW WORLD ORDER....and if I as a Woman have found favor in your sight...then allow the Annointing to Fall for without it, and YOU nothing I set out to do will come to fruition. But For The Sake of The Kingdom, I ask YOUR Blessing, may Your Holy Spirit move across this Great Nation awakening the People to The Truth of This New World Order. May they use THIS MOST IMPORTANT ELECTION to cast that vote for Freedom, For Liberty, and For all the IDEALS and CHARACTER that makes up A Christian Nation. Though we sin, and fall short we have Repentance, and then up on the horse and ride out again. Let us not be prideful and turn to you, as I ask for THIS LAND to be restored BACK to who she is. And may her "citizens" come to realize that WE ARE CITIZENS OF FREEDOM, and until upon repentance we turn to you, The Enemy will continue to say WE ARE CITZENS "of the world" in a TAKE-OVER of Sovereignty. God Forbid! Thy Will be done in and through We who truly call upon you and KNOW you. Amen!

HI Teresa,
First I wish you a very blessed Sabbath, the Lords day, HE made for man and not man for the Sabbath.
My name is Yuergen , I’m 72 and was born into the SDA church. Left, CAME OUT, to be separated from the Harlot & Whore of Babylon, in oder not to touch the unclean thing and get unclean myself. Rev. 18:1-5
As I see, you call yourself a protestant. May I asked, if you’re an Sabbath (Saturday) keeping protestant or an Sun-Day keeping protestant?
Do you believe in the Trinity or do you believe in the ONLY TRUE GOD and his Son Jesus Christ? John 17:3
Brotherly greetings: Yuergen K.
TeresaDSmith Mercyministries
I am unique my dear heart for I believe there is not ONE specific DAY of Sabbath, but that the Lord's REST (Sabbath) be EVERYDAY in Him.
Yes, you are most correct in that I if I must declare myself a "thing" I am a PROTESTANT.
Yuergen, it is tricky your question: "Do you believe in the Trinity or do you believe in the ONLY TRUE GOD and his Son Jesus Christ? John 17:3"
umm John 17:3 :17:3 And this is life eternal, that they might know thee the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom thou hast sent.
I am most likely very unique in my take of this: I see God in 3 "persons" (God The Father, God The Son, God The Holy Spirit) while also I see the 3 "offices" of God (The Godhead, The Messiah, The Comforter).
I have had this particular conversation so many times over on the past 3 years that I have literallly lost count.
I can summise my beliefs in a blog post I wrote as follows: (and again I state LET US RESPECT each other with DIGNITY and RESPECT....if you disagree don't just SAY OR WRITE IT...present you case as will I, but I do say at the end of the day, IF WE BOTH truly LOVE THE LORD, then that should be our common ground, and let differences fall by the wayside, for am sick to death of combative spirits who seek only in self-righteousnous to be RIGHT, I say Let The Word reign in US BOTH, and may we both be better for the "debate" NOT "argument"......AGREE???
Now for my blog post on my beliefs:
Now for my blog post on my beliefs:
one:There is no Rapture and the Anti-Christ (Satan) will be in Jerusalem soon

Teresa,
then you believe that the 10 commandments have been abolished on the Cross?
Well, then I have to say good bye, because protestant americans are building right now the image of the beast (america) by reaching out over the gulf to the Vatican.
Where soon, you’re going to worship the SUN-DAY to keep it holy for the Beast/Pope.
I cannot work with someone who believes in doctrines made by man and the Devil.
It’s a shame, but Christ tell me, not to mingle with the unclean symbolised thru falsehood and error Faith/Truth.
God be with you sister and give you heavenly eyesalve that you me see the difference between falsehood & truth. J.K.
(EUHARLEE...she laughs as she runs!).....
Adventism Challenged
I guess, you’re a bid in the “New Age Theology” movement. You’re truly working with unclean Spirits. Believing in a 3 personality God, is spiritistic and unclean. If you would be smart, you would google and find out that the Trinity has its origin in the babylonian pagan religion, as the holy Sunday worship and the eternal human spirit.
You have established your own religion and that is a big NO-NO......what the Bible concerns.
God bless: Yuergen K.
(EUHARLEE:she laughs as she runs)...............
Adventist Challenged
believe in a Rapture. That did happened when Christ died, many graves opened.
I believe that Satan is coming as an angel of light and will tell the world, and you, that he is Christ and will perform such powerful miracles, that the very elect will fall to their knees and worship Satan.
God hates the Falsehood offshoot ministries, especially when led by women who need to sit down and shut up in the presents of Christ and Men.
I would hate to be your husband Teresa. God is the head of Christ ( biblically ) and Christ is the head of Man and the Man is the head of the Women.
You don’t believe it, we go apart.....Your ways are not my ways and neither they are Christ’s way.

Don’t worry Teresa. Christ will deal with you personally......Your name is written in the big black book in heaven.

I am in no need of rebuking. I KNOW who I am. I KNOW who I serve, and what I stand for. As for taking The Lord's Name in VAIN...I KNOW what that means also. Since You have already summed me up, I will offer more meat for the slaughter in my writing Thou Shall Not take the Name of The Lord in VAIN. Please go STUDY:
http://www.musingsandramblingsoftee.blogspot.com/2011/04/keeping-covenant-thou-shalt-not-take.html
I DO NOT, and more importantly in the very near FUTURE will not. I serve HIM and HIM alone, and do not allow the chains of DOGMATIC RELIGION put Him back on the cross. He went there set me FREE, I accept that blood, Believe in the 10 commandments as LAW of which they really roll into TWO (but I know you are wise enough to already know that also) and at the end of the Day The Greatest is LOVE.
Having said that, I am not sure how we got on on the wrong foot. You have been "short" with me and I having been very tired and having been drained from my week. I want to say forgive me for any "tone" as I forgive you...But should you truly desire to discuss the Word fine BUT you already have all the answers.
For me the most important is The Blood, accepting it makes me BLAMELESS BEFORE HIM as along as I REPENT of SIN.
I don't get tripped up in the small stuff, and allow MAN or WOMAN to judge me, for He alone is my Judge.
The other most important thing is to KNOW that The Anti-Christ whom is none other that Satan, The Son of Perdition, along with the Fallen Angels will be booted out of Heaven to this Earth very soon (rev 12) that is IF your church allows you to read Revelations as Many say no need to read it for you are gonna be gone when He comes for The Church and they miss the mark aby mistaking The Church for when John was "taken there" so as to be given Revelation knowledge By Christ to plant here with WE who desire to stay behind (actually ALL will be here no one is going anywhere) but I use that term tongue in cheek as so many want to be the first one "taken" when the Rapture comes.
Anyway, I prepare my mind and sharpen my self for THAT day of being delivered up before the Synagogue Of Satan, and I do not get pulled off and side-lined by people who have not spent any amount of time with me to KNOW me, and think they "have my number"...how silly of anyone who begins to think that.
If YOU were to truly study me, and KNOW me...oh dear one what a wealth of LOve, Mercy, and so much you would gain.
But you have deduced me to a wolf in sheeps clothing and one who would ravish your study group. I am not in need of another study group. I have plenty, and actually spend more time alone in The Word, with the Strongs Concordance, and The Holy SPirit who gives to ALL who seek ample wisdom in Him. RELIGION I HATE, Me Father I love. Jesus Christ THE MESSIAH I accept as His ONLY BEGOTTEN Son, claim His Blood, and I walk out my Faith and beliefs EVERYDAY. I may fall short AS WE ALL DO. but I will leave My Judgement IN HIS HANDS....not yours dear precious one.
I pray you a delightful day, and a blessed one in Him. Shake lose the preconceived idea of you think you know me.....and read my blog....I am no fool and neither and I a self-appointed WOMAN MINISTER.....I chose to SHARE my life, and GIVE BACK the Grace that He sacrificed and gave to me.
And even I will not sit here and pretend to say that I KNOW you are a wolf...for I haven't spent enough time with you either...and a WISE person doesn't make those kinds of flippant judgements of another. I think somehow we just got off on the wrong foot and are out of step in this dance.As far as Taking The LORDS name in vain....here you go....please GO STUDY!

Have a blessed day!
EUHARLEE!!! My final SAY.........(as follows)...
TeresaDSmith Mercyministries
YK
HEAVEN is where ever the PRESENSE of Christ is. Christ is In HEAVEN "right now" SITTING ON THE THRONE AT THE RIGHT HAND OF GOD (as are ALL at this moment "the good the bad the ugly" as NO ONE has been "sentenced" to HELL outside of the Son of Perdition (which is Satan himself) . But that "sentence" hasn't been carried out YET. HELL is the GREAT WHITE THRONE Judgement at the END of THE MILLENIUM (the 1000 years of teaching aka THE LORDS DAY) in which those who did not take part TODAY of the 1st ressurrection (mind) and overcome the Beast (Deut 32, Rev 15) are taught TRUTH.
It is during this 1000 years that Satans "presense" (his evil spirit and his body) are locked away where NO INFLUENCE negatively can affect the teachings at this time as The Lord has set-up His Kingdom right here on EArth. God's Elect will teach. THEN after the 1000 years Satan will be "released again" (and I say AGAIN because he will in the very near future be HERE ON EARTH defacto playacting Jesus in his "office" of The Anti-Christ just as Our Lord and Saviour ALREADY came in His "office" as The Messiah)...Satan will be released THEN AGAIN at the end to "test" those who were taught in SPRIRITUAL BODIES during the 1000 years. If folks "overcome" THEN that is partaking of the 2nd Ressurection. You either "overcome" then or AT THAT TIME is Hell which is marching into the Lake of Fire (and the soul PERISHES) meaning is blotted out (which is a very interesting term when studied deeper).
So many of the churches teach Hell like its a literal Lake of fire and people are over there in our site and we see them "burning and sizzling " like a piece of Bacon. This always cracks me up (on one level and then makes me sad at the bad teaching, and then ANGERS me that there are those who get taught this malarky).....When someone is "blotted out" it means that they are ERASED from MEMORY as if they never even existed. This is how there can be no TEARS in Heaven...for how can we rejoice when looking over "there" at someone WE LOVE and they are in pain. LOVE doesn't allow suffering.....
So my dear precious child of God. Get your facts straight because this is SERIOUS BUSINESS. Satan WILL be cast out of Heaven (that DIMENSION) and physically HE WILL BE HERE ON EARTH. His HEAD-quarters will be Jerusalem. The Dome of The Rock where he will be "selling the world" that he is Jesus. If you can pinch yourself and it hurts then we are still in the flesh and this FAKE is an imposter! The DECEIVER who "deceives" the whole world. He will be the Religious BEAST. This is a TIME OF SIFTING dear one....
I am not against YOU Y.K. But I say do not be deceived. We can agree to disagree on all the other "religion" doctrine and "dogma" but do NOT take this last part lightly.
And this is not PROUDNESS standing in the way...for you see I HAVE dug deep to find the TREASURE OF TRUTH, and now I pray for that eyesalve for you....
Only time will tell...but when it comes to ones soul....not a thing to take lightly....
BLESSINGS,
Teresa (a self-made Woman of God...By the GRACE and Authority of Christ. ELECT Chosen just for a moment in time as such, An ELECT who WILL NOT bow a knee to Satan in the very near future)
Now, to you the reader. I say prepare your minds. I attempted to present FACTS line on line, and not get into a combative spirit. I usually do not involve myself to this level. But this was a person who hopped on my Facebook Status THEN went to my email with all this. So though this is an on-going engagement from several days now and is chronologically in Flashback.
There is a LESSON IN IT FOR ALL (myself included and why I chose to be OPEN about this encounter) FOR ME, I needed to remember how Satan TEMPTED Christ with Scripture. If you will recall in this encounter here he stated he knew that Satan comes disquised as an angel of light and will be performing miracles in the sight of man AND YOU (ah heres where he tweeked it) that the very Elect WILL BOW DOWN TO SATAN. (oh dear precious children THAT IS NOT WHAT THE WORD says...it says IF IT WERE POSSIBLE... Matthew 24:24, "For there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets, and shall shew great signs and wonders; insomuch that, if it were possible, they shall deceive the very elect." Can you see just how it was so "religiously" tweeked. THAT IS SATANS METHOD OF OPERATION using the Word.
So,what exactly started this latest attack? I pondered where did it begin? On my post yesterday in my defense of America, her IDEALS, etc....this "certain person" popped on the scene publically in commentary, but when I fought with TRUTH PUBLICALLY, then he went privately to email.) I thank God for yesterday for it WAS A GREAT EYE-OPENER...and I know was "permitted" for my edification.

What's on your mind? A comment in my STATUS a few days back on Ron Paul/Sara Palin... I am just getting to answer OPENLY here.@ Adventism Challenged To answer your questions "
*Where have you been when America needed you decades ago?"
Umm, the best way to say this is to say it "in Babylon in the wilderness" in the midst of the battle of self-will and God's Will, war of spirit versus flesh, caught in sin drowning along with many of you being DECEIVED and LIED TO and finding my way OUT OF HER lost and searching finding my place in this tired worn out ole world marching onward in this LOVE REVOLUTION and Redemption of The Body The House of Israel.

For in "forgetting" The masses have been hood-winked and caught being "assimulated" into the LARGEST COMMUNITY in existence "founded" on the Elitist Cause that we The "small minded" People need to be Governed and thusly because we sit quietly, tails tucked between our legs, looking to the Great Master of The New World Order Plantation to set us free, yet shackled us even tighter for in being shackled so long The People have forgotten THE STRENGTH that lies WITHIN us as A People United UNDER God, and have allowed The Left and their "social agendas" to divide us against one another as the Right drives another wedge.
My "battle" is one of Spiritual matters Of America ...on the reigning ideology that welcomes immigrants to our shores YET no longer calls for their assimilation into OUR "melting pot" but instead celebrates their diversity, multiplicity, and cultural distinctiveness" the political "unum" of America is lost amidst THE FOCUS on the multicultural "pluribus".
As I have said recently to the Constrution Worker on my house who is Mexican who took over the job of renovations after I had to fire the White worker for being drunk in the middle of doing the work and making such a mess by weeks end. OUr conversation was on the recent "immigrants" (and their children) usually know from fresh experience how their lives have improved by coming to America KNOW from the "fresh EXPERIENCE" how their LIVES HAVE IMPROVED by coming to the United States of AMERICA, yet the "well-off" children, the NATURAL -BORN children knwoing little of history from A Biblical Perspective truly understand the Political Agendas of "some of The Leadership" taking up residence in the White House, and Congress and The House of Representatives...who by "their" mission attempt to SIMULATE USA "into" their BORG-LIKE NWO an dthey take for granted the PRIVILEDGE of an American CITIZENSHIP amd prosperity, and lend ear to the Tlaking Heads, intellectuals without Heart, who tread HEAVILY over the ink of The Constitution, opinionated PROPANGANDA media machine turning out spin-doctered words of infection making SICK the MINDS AND HEARTS of America as politicians TALK of Globalization and the NEED to "regard" America (and The People make up her) as Citizens of The World.
EUNICKS! CBC! GOB!
Between such cosmopolitan universalism and ethnic and racial "tribalism", NATIONAL pride and attachment have become disparaged, and in some French Quarters, and rooms filled with the stagnant smoke from overpriced cigars, and select Cognac filled Oval offices and War Rooms....OBSOLETE!
But I say to you National Identity and Citizenship in America face deeper adn more permanet challenges, some linked to the special CHARACTER of our Liberal democratic republic. While The American REPUBLIC was founded as -----and I might add REMAINS----a Nation not of birth,lineage, or inherited monies and ways, BUT OF IDEAS...the equal rights to life, liberty and the PURSUIT of happiness; freedom of religion, and religious toleration; majority rule (and thats not taking a poll of 25 people out of a nation and the majority of THAT number sets precedence).No , the MAJORITY RULE with minority rights (not affirmative action either). ANYONE who embraces these IDEAS is in Spirit ...AMERICAN, and to those who make up that number is AMERICA.
The time has come for a LOVE REVOLUTION in spirit. Maybe God in His infinate wisdom knows that once a people taste FREEDOM, and somethign comes along to STEAL it from them, then a PEOPLE of ethics and priniciple WILL RISE UP....that MINORITY rights stanidng on the ROCK and FOUNDATION of The Church, The Truth, guiding others for an INFORMED PEOPLE can and WILL I MIGHT ADD become a supportive people. For what is IN YOU is how one is baited. If GREED exists, oh the establishment will goad you with a buble loan so that you may run out and party hard, vacation and play...but when the bubble bursts...who laughs? They are....Just next door to me I bear witness to this. A loan taken out on a paid for home, back when "the bubble" said homes are worth 100,000 in this neighborhood and the banks loaned it. Today that house has been bought by Fannie Mae, and I talked to a Real-Estate Agent representing Fannie Mae (who for the informed TRULY KNOW THE FEDERAL RESERVE owns Freddie and Fannie)....and today that house is on the Market for a mere $21,000.00 They in all deceitfulness LENT those loans (scientifically created the bubble) and then they turn around and acquire our ASSETS cheaply.
IN conclusion to this tangent of my answer you write:
*If there is no war, America is going down......So, my friends, prepare for the soon coming war against Iran
Again I in my simplistic HEART begs the differ. America and her ideals will STAND THE TEST of TIME. No my dear BABYLON IS FALLING, come out of her, and get not caught when the "system" comes a realing.
So I ask? Is acceptance of certain BASIC politcal or philosophical IDEALS as I previously discussed enough to make CITIZENS willing to serve and sacrifice for their country in time of need.
Oh how I look around and think if We Would all pull our monies OUT OF THE FEDERAL System, Co-OP and sit back and watch BERNANKE scramble to stop it from overnight FALLING here in America, and then "systematically" like dominoes around this GLOCAL ECOMONY....down, down, down, and then what is LEFT IS REAL. NOt propped up, piped up, deceptiively held, Oh my it may be tight and I FOR ONE KNOW how tight it could be for I have in my own small world been experiencing down-sizing, getting the knife out and cutting the budget of my own life so as to devote my self to The Lord, To this CAUSE, This Love Revolution....where my heart is for The PEOPLE, as I judge the Cause of the Poor, and Pray To The Father that Vengence Come upon these mindless leaders whose heart is merely for only the butts they pat in future preparations of SELF-GAIN!
Lord ready me........
In conclusion: THE POST THAT SPARKED IT ALL!
OMG...I just have to post this as STATUS. I posted on Ron Paul, and reference about Sarah Palin and what she accomplished as CEO (Governor) in Alaska with BIG OIL, and transferred the RESOURCES back to the PEOPLE (putting citizens FIRST) of Alaska with. I merely stated my thoughts that Ron Paul could DO THE SAME with BIG ELITE BANKERS (Fed Reserve) and RESTORE the wealth OF THE PEOPLE "back" TO THE CITIZENS of The USA. And for one to actually post this to my page is like OMG...beam me up Scottie! Here is my reply:
Rebellion to tyrants is obedience to God. It is error which needs the support of government, truth can stand on it's own. -Thomas Jefferson
GOD IS JUST AND I TREMBLE THAT HIS JUSTICE CAN NOT SLEEP FOREVER!!!
the EFFECT of government coercion is:
"to make one half the people fools and the other half hypocrites, and to support roguery and error all over the earth"
TRUTH IS A RADICAL IDEA TO AN INDOCTRINATED MIND!!!
Cowardice asks the question is it safe? Expediency asks the question is it politic?Vanity asks the question is it popular?
AHH~ BUT CONSCIENCE ASKS THE QUESTION IS IT RIGHT AND JUST?
And there comes a time when one must take a position that is neither safe, nor politic, nor popular but one must take it because it is right.
@ Keven as I click on your link I read it with dismay. Not only in the perplexing propaganda of the "political" arena, but in the summationary conclusion from which this writer deduces to summise the HEART of Sarah Palin and "justifies" it with the dogmatic INCONCISE reference to a GOOD OLE BOY ESTABLISHEMENT VIEW of scripture. For it reeks of a putrid aroma of so called intelligent man whose "gas" made a u-turn and got lost in its "intended" place of exit, making its escape into the blog forum and speech in his stupidy in this post on Sarah:
If Sarah Palin is an Evangelical, why is she even speaking in public?
According to 1 Timothy 2:11-12: “A woman should learn in quietness and full submission. I do not permit a woman to teach or to have authority over a man; she must be silent.”
According to 1 Tim 2:8-11: I will therefore that men pray every where, lifting up holy hands, without wrath and doubting. In like manner also, that women adorn themselves in modest apparel, with shamefacedness and sobriety; not with broided hair, or gold, or pearls, or costly array; But (which becometh women professing godliness) with good works. Let the woman learn in silence with all subjection.
What say ye, Sarah? Are you truly into your Bible or do you just want to use that book to further your's and Israel's schemes for world domination?
Instead of what say ye Sarah? I say What say YE? Should she "learn with all subjection" to THE ESTABLISHMENT, to BIG OIL, to THE GOOLD OLE NETWORK at the EXPENSE and COST of American Freedom and Liberty, and JUSTICE for all? Had she came upon the scene scratching her crotch, smoking a stogie, and dousing it into her $250.00 ounce of Cognac...in SILENT behind closed doors of NO Transparency, where only THE ELITE and a select FEW hear, or YELL FROM THE ROOF-TOPS that THE TIME IS NOW...to shift the ABSOLUTE BS in Washington, and DECLARE freedom the the enslavement of stupor that the lost UNRIGHTEOUS men such as Harry Reed, AND WOMEN such as Nancy Pelosi CHATTER on and on about?
GOD FORBID! Keven I am not "attacking" YOU but the absolute audacity of this article is desirous of BEANO.

Teresa DSmith,
Where have you been when America needed you decades ago?
The only balls in Washington are these men, who always have to strife for War. America is a War-Mongul.
If there is no war, America is going down......So, my friends, prepare for the soon coming war against Iran.

I will end with this prayer: Father I come before you in the Name of Jesus Christ, kneeling before YOUR throne of Grace and Mercy for ONLY you can Grant it. I ask forgiveness for my err in behaviour in dealing with this one who comes "at" The Woman. Satan is GOOD at coming...thank you Lord for this lesson. I more than ever understand ..., AND AS A SHEEP BEFORE HER SHEARERS IS DUMB. For you took the stripes that we may be healed YOU PAID THE PRICE FOR SIN stepping down from Heaven coming to this Earth in Human Form showing us HOW TO GET IT DONE. So when my enemies (and they are mine because FIRST they are yours...they received YOU not, and they shall receive me not either for only those IN WHOM it is destined from the beginning to do thy WIll and work in these end-times shall HEAR because they ARE yours. The TIME IS NOW to come out of confusion, to wait upon you, to sound the trumpet, TO DECLARE the Day of Vengence and Get ready for the Battle at hand. Lord Ready Me. Lord ready WE who are yours and let us not be side-tracked by nay-sayers whom have not The Truth from the beginning. Lord, Today I draw that line in the sand. Here and no further! It is TIME to take back "stolen property" and not to surrender any more ground to The Devil. NO NEW WORLD ORDER....and if I as a Woman have found favor in your sight...then allow the Annointing to Fall for without it, and YOU nothing I set out to do will come to fruition. But For The Sake of The Kingdom, I ask YOUR Blessing, may Your Holy Spirit move across this Great Nation awakening the People to The Truth of This New World Order. May they use THIS MOST IMPORTANT ELECTION to cast that vote for Freedom, For Liberty, and For all the IDEALS and CHARACTER that makes up A Christian Nation. Though we sin, and fall short we have Repentance, and then up on the horse and ride out again. Let us not be prideful and turn to you, as I ask for THIS LAND to be restored BACK to who she is. And may her "citizens" come to realize that WE ARE CITIZENS OF FREEDOM, and until upon repentance we turn to you, The Enemy will continue to say WE ARE CITZENS "of the world" in a TAKE-OVER of Sovereignty. God Forbid! Thy Will be done in and through We who truly call upon you and KNOW you. Amen!

SEPERATION FROM GOD:Temptation and Deception
All Virtue comes from God PRESENCE and being IN HIS PRESENCE!!!
I’m sure all of us agree that the enemy is out to tempt us to sin. He is making war against our souls – his hatred towards God is enough to fuel his fiery attacks against those that bear God’s image. Ever wondered why this Christian walk is so hard? Jesus warned us against temptation and sin:
Matthew 26:41: “Watch and pray so that you will not fall into temptation. The spirit is willing, but the flesh is weak.”
Only by abiding in Christ and walking in the Spirit will we be able to withstand temptation. We are weak, but Christ in us is strong enough to withstand it. It has already been proven – He has a 100% clear track record of His life on earth, remember? So if we fail, what are the reasons? I’m convinced that there is only one reason: we don’t spend enough time in His presence. Relying on your own ability will fail for sure.The enemy knows you struggle with that addiction (and not all is to do with drugs...there is the addiction to BEING RIGHT..."self-righteous")it just FEELS so good to put other people in their place with all your KNOWLEDGE of the scriptures!) He waits until you’re physically and spiritually drained until he sends the temptation over your path. But do we see what’s going on behind the scenes – in the spiritual realm? No. We are caught up in our earthly lives and struggles, trying to get through Monday to Friday. People, do we get this, that there is a war going on, a war for our souls, to steal our eternity with God? It doesn’t end with deeds. What about our thoughts? Jesus said hating your brother is as good as committing murder. And:Matt. 5: 27 “You have heard that it was said, ‘You shall not commit adultery.’28 But I tell you that anyone who looks at a woman lustfully has already committed adultery with her in his heart. 29 If your right eye causes you to stumble, gouge it out and throw it away. It is better for you to lose one part of your body than for your whole body to be thrown into hell. “
Sure, it’s easy to stay faithful to your spouse, to not kill someone, to look like a follower of Christ from the outside. But God sees our every thought! So how do we do it??
1 Cor. 10:13 “No temptation has overtaken you except what is common to mankind. And God is faithful; he will not let you be tempted beyond what you can bear. But when you are tempted, he will also provide a way out so that you can endure it.”
Really! Wow. Then why do we fall? Could it be that we don’t talk to God and ask Him to deal with it? Do we trust him at all? If we are in His presence the moment when temptation arrives, will it even be an issue? Do we understand walking in the Spirit? Only in His strength can we have power over the enemy and sin – and yet we try and do it in our own strength. No wonder we struggle!
James 1:12 "Blessed is the one who perseveres under trial because, having stood the test, that person will receive the crown of life that the Lord has promised to those who love him.
13 When tempted, no one should say, “God is tempting me.” For God cannot be tempted by evil, nor does he tempt anyone;
14 but each person is tempted when they are dragged away by their own evil desire and enticed.
15 Then, after desire has conceived, it gives birth to sin; and sin, when it is full-grown, gives birth to death.
“Did you notice that temptation came knocking on Jesus’ door right after His baptism and he started His ministry? But He remained standing because He was praying and fasting, abiding in the Father’s love, quoting Scripture to the devil who could but flee the scene with his tail between his legs. Praise God!
Let’s look at DECEPTION. The oldest trick in the book used against mankind is the TWISTING OF TRUTH.
Gen. 3:1 “Now the serpent was more crafty than any of the wild animals the LORD God had made. He said to the woman, “Did God really say, ‘You must not eat from any tree in the garden’?”
NOW THAT’S A LIE. Deception came before temptation.
The most obvious deceptions to us as believers are the “big” lies like Islam and The "MooseLIME Bruddahood". Satan took a small piece of truth and twisted it into a religion of hate. Today it is one of the biggest religions on earth! Then there are the day-to-day lies we hear every day – more than we’ll ever know on this earth!
Here’s an example: I may not have time to spend with my child – again, and the enemy is right there telling him that no one loves him, that he is unloved. Or, me and my husband may have a misunderstanding, carefully orchestrated by the enemy, who hates to see a happy marriage. Satan can’t get enough of adultery, divorce, abortion, etc. He will leave the unsaved alone, because why bother? They’re already lost. No. He goes for the children of God Almighty! Through lies, deception, misunderstanding and confusion he creates heartache and chaos.What about false teachers and false doctrine? They take the Word, twist it, and justify their deeds with THE WORD!! Now THAT’S deception!!
Others preach that Jesus was just a good teacher, a holy man who showed us how to live. HE IS THE ONE AND ONLY MESSIAH! No IFS< AND, OR BUTS ABOUT IT!
Still others believe that ALL roads lead to God, like the Oprah Winfrey fan-club. These are all examples of horrible deceptions carefully planned by Satan to get millions of people "separated from God".
2 Cor. 11:14: “And no wonder, for Satan himself masquerades as an angel of light. 15 It is not surprising, then, if his servants also masquerade as servants of righteousness. Their end will be what their actions deserve.” How do we watch against deception and false teachers?
2 Cor. 10:4:”For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal but mighty in God for pulling down strongholds,
5 casting down arguments and every high thing that exalts itself against the knowledge of God, bringing every thought into captivity to the obedience of Christ, 6 and being ready to punish all disobedience when your obedience is fulfilled.”
Here are a few warnings from the Word:1 Corinthians 6:9-10 Do not be DECEIVED: Neither the sexually immoral nor idolaters nor adulterers nor men who have sex with men 10 nor thieves nor the greedy nor drunkards nor slanderers nor swindlers will inherit the kingdom of God.
2 Tim. 3: 12: “In fact, everyone who wants to live a godly life in Christ Jesus will be persecuted,
13 while evildoers and impostors will go from bad to worse, DECEIVING and being DECEIVED.
14 But as for you, continue in what you have learned and have become convinced of, because you know those from whom you learned it,
15 and how from infancy you have known the Holy Scriptures, which are able to make you wise for salvation through faith in Christ Jesus.
16 All Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness,
17 so that the servant of God may be thoroughly equipped for every good work.
”Matt. 7:15: “Watch out for false prophets. They come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly they are ferocious wolves. 16 By their fruit you will recognize them. Do people pick grapes from thornbushes, or figs from thistles?
17 Likewise, every good tree bears good fruit, but a bad tree bears bad fruit.
18 A good tree cannot bear bad fruit, and a bad tree cannot bear good fruit.
19 Every tree that does not bear good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire.
20 Thus, by their fruit you will recognize them.”
John 10:4: “When he has brought out all his own, he goes on ahead of them, and his sheep follow him because they know his voice. 5 But they will never follow a stranger; in fact, they will run away from him because they do not recognize a stranger’s voice.”
”John 14:6 “Jesus answered, “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.”
My People, let’s remember that there is a war going on that we can’t see with our physical eyes. We are fighting a battle and we need to be ready 24/7. If we are being tempted or facing deception and we are not fed with the Word of God at that moment, abiding in Christ, we may not have the spiritual discernment that we desperately need to see through his lies and deceit.
Just as the anti-Christ will deceive the whole world in the very near future, many anti-Christs are in the world already, deceiving millions. Make sure you are in Christ and following Him and His voice alone, 100%.
In conclusion, Remember SATAN KNOWS scripture and as many of us have seen VERY RECENTLY in these "groups"...all the KNOWLEDGE of SCRIPTURE does not make one a Christian in DEED, and ACT, for by their FRUIT you sense them. DO NOT BE TEMPTED to "become" SEPERATED FROM GOD off in this clique group or that clique group. Be wiser than the serpent who is stealthily in the prowl from one to another...causing chaos and confusion...again only Satan is the AUTHOR of confusion...pluck him "in those" from your midst...and DO NOT GET SEPERATED FROM GOD!

Keep going. Don't stop. Your on the right path and you are not alone".
I know one thing GRATITUDE and PRAISE that comes IN THE MIDST OF SUFFERING unlocks the fullness of life...even in the midst of death and job loss. It turns what we have into ENOUGH, and more. It turns denial into acceptance, chaos to order, confusion to clarity. It can turn a simple meal of pinto beans and rice into a FEAST! Gratitude makes sense of our PAST, brings peace for TODAY, and creates a VISION for the FUTURE!
The Bible says in Proverbs 29:18, “Where there is no vision, the people perish.” It’s good to have goals for God. The Bible says in Philippians 3:14, “I PRESS ON TOWARD THE GOAL to win the prize for which God has called me heavenward in Christ Jesus.” When we think of "pressing on"...there comes to mind the picture of a strong wind in opposition almost pushing you BACK from the direction in which you are headed. What is the "IT" FACTOR that keeps us PRESSING ON? To have GOALS in life "for God", to have personal GOALS, to have dreams to believe in, to have a vision to serve God, to be determined to see it through.
If we don’t a vision, we don’t have a LAZER FOCUS. We PERISH for "lack of drive". We PERISH for a "lack of vision", and don’t achieve things in life. To have a dream, "to aim for a vision" to BELIEVE in, to have SOMETHING that so "grips us that we will not let it go"; to have that VISION for God, to be PURPOSE DRIVEN "in God", to BELIEVE in a vision and SEE it come to pass.
Can we say "together" as ONE VOICE…
We have a VISION for this nation; we share a DREAM for this land. We JOIN with angels in celebration, by FAITH we SPEAK revival in this land. Where every knee shall bow and worship You, And every tongue confess that You are Lord, Grant us an open heaven by Your Mercy; ANOINT our prayers this day, And move Your sovereign hand, across this nation.
If trials and tribulations have come to visit you...it is okay. In order TO PRESS ON...there has to be "opposition" (and many of you know I am speaking at this very moment in the midst of my own)...BUT the meat of this message is this: do not BELIEVE upon the tribulations "accept them", but let it NOT be that "SOMETHING" that grips us that we can not LET go in the negative Satanic Realm of Dispair and HOPELESSNESS. Be "shocked" but not dismayed! Stumble but not fall. Lean on the loving arms of Our Father who reaches out to your through authentic Love and His Holy Spirit of Truth. He NEVER promised this Life would be "easy" but He did PROMISE it would be WORTH IT...."if" we hold fast (grip it) to our FAITH.
"Let us hold fast the profession of our faith without wavering; (for he is faithful that promised)" (Heb. 10:23).This is an important type of Bible confession that many in the body of Christ have missed.
We are to "hold fast the profession of our faith." In the King James Version, the word profession is used. But the same Greek word homologeo is translated as "confession" elsewhere in the New Testament and means "to speak the same thing as; to AGREE with." So the writer of Hebrews is actually saying, "Let us hold fast the confession of our faith without wavering, for He who promised is faithful."
We often focus on God's faithfulness—and God is faithful. He said, "I watch over My Word to perform it" (Jer. 1:12). Whatever He has said, He will do because "God is not a man, that he should lie" (Num. 23:19).
God is faithful, BUT NOTICE THAT HE REQUIRES SOMETHING OUT OF US. He's faithful to perform His Word—if we BELIEVE AND ACT on it. He told us we have a part to play. If we want His faithfulness to operate in our lives, we must hold fast the confession of our faith without wavering.
Ah the eyes of my eyes are opened. There is no DUTY we so much underrate as the DUTY of being Faithful. In FAITH we sow anonymous benefits upin the world. Be courageous. Ask yourself in the midst of your personal turmoil: am I walking in FAITH so gripped by IT that I BELIEVE and ACT upon it?
The deeply personal answers to this vital question will be different for each of us as each of us are pressing on THROUGH "opposition" threatening to push us BACK from the VISION that The Lord has prepared for us. Satan threatens to grip us with despair in death as The Gilbert family can bear witness to, and myself losing my job just after Christmas, while others around me in my town of Rome, Ga are caught in the grips of the aftermath of the EF3 tornado that touched down less than a mile from my house. I am reminded at this very moment of wrting this that it is NOT the "force" of the opposition threatening to push us BACK or DOWN, but in the POWER of Christ IN US to PRESS ON. Make peace with the knowledge that we can't have everything the way WE would want? Why? Because it is important for each of us to get what we NEED. Trust in the loving WISDOM of your heart. It is only after we acknowledge our INNER NEEDS that we can harness the creative energy necessary to manifest them in our lives. It is inevitable when we are in GREAT NEED of something one finds it. Whether through the providence of Divine INtervention because we are "positioned" to RECEIVE, or too caught in the grip of "dispair" that we become blinded and lost and tossed about by the "winds of opposition".
When we are "concerned yet IN FAITH" for this or this our "concentration" focuses like a laser. Suddenly there's a clarity about all of life because we REALIZE what is important. LIVING is important. FREEDOM is important. THE BASIC SIMPLE things are important. Everyday is a GIFT. You realize that with each breath we breathe WE have been given another CHANCE to obtain right-thinking, to get things right and in order. Most of the time we are given it, and most of the time we receive it and we are GRATEFUL. That is the method of operation of God!
But "worries" MOCK us. They STEAL the joy of living because they follow us around all day like a dark menacing shadow. AT night they hover at the foot of the bed like unwelcomed spirits in a thrid rate horror film just laying in wait to ROB you of necessary sleep. When we are "worried" about this or that then the days are DREADED, and ANXIETY sets up residence in our hearts and minds. As I have shared recently heartache and tragedy may visit us like a guest, but she doesn't have to take up residence. Where that space is OCCUPIED with Faith, HOPE, and a VISION for the future...there can be no room in the INN.
As I look out over this GREAT NATION I see where the enemy has actually used US against ourselves by dividing us against one another in fear, dispair, worry and hopeless faithlessness. It is my sincere prayer that today Spirit annoint this writing and that a sentence leaps off the page as if it had been written just for YOU..yes YOU. Or revelation comes in the song of a bird. Maybe an angel will seem to whisper in your ear serenity is what you desire not security.
I know from EXPERIENCE this week that sometimes the fierce storms come so strong that we find ourselves shivering, but unharmed though the day rough threatens us to find even one thing to be GRATEFUL for...but WE MUST! Why? Gratitude UNLOCKS the fullness of LIFE! Why? Because none of us will be the same person 2 months from now after CONSCIOUSLY giving THANKS each day for the abundance that exists in OUR LIVES. Gratitude sets in motion a SPIRITUAL LAW: the more you have AND ARE GRATEFUL FOR...the more will be given you. Yes, Gratitude is the hearts memory, and FAITH is what "powers" UP and Divine Grace comes down.
So today I begin. I am grateful thou OUTSIDE, winters darkness and cold closes in, INSIDE I have found my own Light where IN IT are found the details of life that beauty is revealed, sustained and nurtured. As I pause in graceful manner (fired yes...but I CHOSE to hold my head in GRACEFUL MANNER) and join with angels and PROCLAIM it is finished! That "chapter" of my life is done. Though as I paid all the bills, I stare at the balance in my checking account $3.58. I smiled. Though to many right now that is a travesty! I see the FULLNESS of the VALUE of what is left in Biblical Numerics. 3 is the number for God. 5 is the number for Grace and Unmerited Favor. 8 is New Beginnings. As I enter this New Year it shall truly be New Beginnings in 2012. I ended this year trusting that everyday moments will soon begin to resonate in a rhapsody of fulfillment as THE VISION stays in focus....Our Nation needs healing, and revival! Though winds of opposition have come to visit...I have come too far to turn back. Like the pioneer women of the early days of this Nations birth, I too shall sing "Keep going. Don't stop. Your on the right path and you are not alone".
I reach out to YOU...yes YOU!
Can we say "together" as ONE VOICE…
We have a VISION for this nation; we share a DREAM for this land. We JOIN with angels in celebration, by FAITH we SPEAK revival in this land. Where every knee shall bow and worship You, And every tongue confess that You are Lord, Grant us an open heaven by Your Mercy; ANOINT our prayers this day, And move Your sovereign hand, across this nation.
The Bible says in Proverbs 29:18, “Where there is no vision, the people perish.” It’s good to have goals for God. The Bible says in Philippians 3:14, “I PRESS ON TOWARD THE GOAL to win the prize for which God has called me heavenward in Christ Jesus.” When we think of "pressing on"...there comes to mind the picture of a strong wind in opposition almost pushing you BACK from the direction in which you are headed. What is the "IT" FACTOR that keeps us PRESSING ON? To have GOALS in life "for God", to have personal GOALS, to have dreams to believe in, to have a vision to serve God, to be determined to see it through.
If we don’t a vision, we don’t have a LAZER FOCUS. We PERISH for "lack of drive". We PERISH for a "lack of vision", and don’t achieve things in life. To have a dream, "to aim for a vision" to BELIEVE in, to have SOMETHING that so "grips us that we will not let it go"; to have that VISION for God, to be PURPOSE DRIVEN "in God", to BELIEVE in a vision and SEE it come to pass.
Can we say "together" as ONE VOICE…

If trials and tribulations have come to visit you...it is okay. In order TO PRESS ON...there has to be "opposition" (and many of you know I am speaking at this very moment in the midst of my own)...BUT the meat of this message is this: do not BELIEVE upon the tribulations "accept them", but let it NOT be that "SOMETHING" that grips us that we can not LET go in the negative Satanic Realm of Dispair and HOPELESSNESS. Be "shocked" but not dismayed! Stumble but not fall. Lean on the loving arms of Our Father who reaches out to your through authentic Love and His Holy Spirit of Truth. He NEVER promised this Life would be "easy" but He did PROMISE it would be WORTH IT...."if" we hold fast (grip it) to our FAITH.

What Kind of Drug are you on?
Tonight I was asked what "drug" am I on? I kinda looked at them in a funny way, and gathered my voice and said "none...why do you ask?" They replied "Everytime I see you, you have a million things going on, projects, things you want to do, and right smack in the middle of it is this smile that grins almost as if you have a secret."
After they paid for their Christmas Tree and left, I pondered what was really said.
For me I think of Life as a journey. Life as safari. Life as a pilgrimage. Life as a garden. Life as the highest art.
Pathfinders. Prospectors.Pioneers.Detectives.Explorers. Archaeologist. Pilgrims. Poets. Gardeners. Artists of the EVERYDAY.
Women of Spirit. Women of Substance. Women with style. Women who have LIVED "the questions". Women READY to embrace the answers. Women who look great in hats. Thats why we wear so many different ones.
Seekers of the Sacred in the ordinary. Real Life. The mystical in the madness,. The Holy Mysteries of the Mundane.
Seekers of Love. Passion. Wholeness.
Authencity.
Where am I headed? Where are we headed?
We're headed HOME.
But before I arrive..WE arrive, there are vast worlds awaiting exploration. Worlds within. Worlds without. Earth. Heaven. Spiritual. Physical.
Heaven on Earth.
Sometimes the terrain is rocky and the slopes steep. Sometimes the jungle is thick and its interior very dark. Sometimes the water is deep and the waves rough.
This is why we need soem variety in our approach. How will I know or we know when we have reached the destination? You'll know.
Its that simple. REAL THINGS are.
Are we there yet?
Not quite.
But it's taking too long.
Often it seems that way. Chronologically we're at the end of the year but the beginning of the journey. Not to worry, We'll have all the time we need to find ourselves.
Someone who loves you unconditionally is at the HELM. Divine Love sustains you, surrounds you, enfolds you, protects you. Go in peace. You are as ready as ever you will be; well equipped for the adventures awaiting. Divine Substance--which is your only Reality--provides abundantly. But you must ASK. Ask For help, supply, guidance, Grace. ASK for the POWER to be switched on. Ask to catch the flow. ASK to soar.
ASK. ASK. ASK>
Ask for a respite this season from all your crises. Surrender suffering, sorrow, pain, loss, lack and want. Surrender Expectations. ASK to be surprised by Joy.
Give thanks, WAIT. Watch what happens. Get excited. Open your arms as wide as you can receive all the miracles with your name on them.
NEVER FORGET THAT ALL YOU HAVE IS ALL YOU NEED!
Believe. BELIEVE IN YOURSELF. Believe the One who believes in YOU. All things are possible for those who believe.
Blessings on your courage.
Navigate by the stars. Search the Heavens for yours. Follow it. Keep on the lookout for soulful markers. The souls Awakening is GRATITUDE. The Souls Essence is SIMPLICITY!
Pray your journey is a long one. SAVOR IT. Stop wishing things would speed up. Savor the stops along the way. Those moments in a haste that would otherwise cause us to miss the flowers on the side of the road, the turtle right smack in the middle of it. They are the things which make the search marvelous. Meaningful. Memorable. Find and honor your OWN pace. There are still many harbors to be seen for the first time. YOu are headed for someplace you have never been before. Put down the remote control, and breathe IN spirit, and breathe OUT love.Let your personal PASSIONS stir your mind, body and spirit. Set your course, and keep God at the helm and you the co-pilot. Set sail on a course towards TRUTH and Authenticity...always being approachable. For when you find this sacred isle, you will no longer SEE things as "they" are...you will see things as YOU are.
So, joyful simplicities for this season irregardless of circumstances!
REALLY DECK THE HALLS. Spread Holiday Cheer with seasonal decorations. NO MONEY? Go to your local Lowes and pick up the FREE CLIPPINGS from where they trim trees. Grab a cup of Hot Cocoa, and make garland, door swags...cost nothing, but a little bit of time. Grab the family, turn off the tv, and make it a night of togetherness! Go outside and lob off a few of those Holly Bushes with red Berries, and add them to the FREE greenery for color..come on YOU CAN DO IT.
Dip into the SIMPLE treasury of seasonal stories while together. Don't forget to smile.
Fulfill the holiday dreams of a child who isn't yours.
Find your star. Follow its Light.
Now THIS IS THE DRUG I am on....

May 21, 2011 The WORLD ENDING day that never happened so WHAT IS THE TRUTH?by 'Teresa DSmith Mercyministries on Monday, May 23, 2011 at 12:02pm
"When a well-packed web of lies has been sold gradually to the masses over generations, THE TRUTH will seem utterly preposterous and its speaker a raving lunatic." Dresden James
In memory of 5/21/2011 (The day that DIDN'T happen) INSTALLING RAPTURE.
███████████████░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░ 44% DONE.

Again I repeat..."When a well-packed web of lies has been sold gradually to the masses over generations, THE TRUTH will seem utterly preposterous and its speaker a raving lunatic." Dresden James
I, Teresa D. Smith, believe Heaven is another dimension here on earth. And yes...I believe you (who believe a RAPTURE as commonly taught) do have "part" of it.The clouds mean PEOPLE in the Greek. In a crowd of people. . . (You can't OVERTHROW an EVIL government if all the soldiers are ready to RUN-AWAY or "FLY AWAY"....not the right ACTION). I am not trying to offend anyone or hurt anyone...I truly care so much that it hurts me to know that Satan has caused so many to not "arm" themselves with TRUTH and be ready to be one of those Christian Soldiers (saints) who come "MARCHING IN". We can all sit in Church on Saturdays/Sundays and sing that WE want to be "counted in that number" (777 NOT 666) ...but don't do the "work" necessary to BE so "counted".
STUDY TO SHOW YOURSELVES APPROVED...
It is my prayer to plant some seeds here, leave it to The Father to "call forth" some who want to sudy deeper FOR THEMSELVES asking HIM to touch them, and open their eyes. Please understand to let down "guards" for just a moment and "come unto Him" like a little child (eyes open and full of EXPECTATION...meaning He is the heart knower and sees WHY you come to Him). Is it to seek "HIM", is it to seek "THE TRUTH", is it to just prove that nutjob wrong, or is it to make sure you are understanding ALL That Christ would have us to SEE? Check your MOTIVE before getting started IF you want Fathers Blessings on the Study.
Father, I pray that YOU use this post to "DRAW OUT" and touch those you are seeking TRUTH and that are seeking YOU. Touch and heal IF IT BE THY WILL, and let those who need to slumber stay so to remain protected in the "cloak of innocency" because you love them. Amen.
Much LOVE, BLESSINGS, HONOR and GRACE to each of you who seek The Father I serve, and The Christ who died to set us free from Bondage and Deception.
Now, allow me to put together a tiny study here for you to dig out for yourselves.Here is AUDIO STUDIO broken into 3 small parts in order to not be overwhelmed.

l
Jesus is The Living Word, and want a journey into the Prophetic...study to know PROPHECY and understand what is "taking place in these end-times). NO FEAR...pure exhileration for we have all been on a long journey. Not sure about you the reader, but even I love a long vacation...but love the minute I get back HOME and can sleep in my OWN BED again. It is the same here with me now, LONG TIME we have been out of the SPIRIT and IN THE FLESH, I long to be HOME again....
No one can truly UNDERSTAND Revelations and the END TIMES, if they can't grasp Genesis and what HAPPENED there!
In conclusion: example: First "manKIND" is mistranslated in the Kings James Bible to just "man" it is genesis chapter 1 verse 26......that is 6th day "creation".....8th day "creation" begins when God rested on the 7th day.....THEN he made Adam , it is NOT WRITTEN as "8th day" it is IMPLIED with "continuity". The verse for ADAM is chapter 2 verse 7....scholars have debated this very many years because the 2 adams in hebrew are so significantly different. one is ADAM and one is ETH HA AdAM....its simple to say that the first ADAM means "mankind" because following it it says that He made THEM both male and female in "OUR" image....THE second ADAM is a special man. The word "eth" is untranslatable by strongs concordance.
In Matthew 13, our Lord and Saviour explains the Parable of the Sower directly to His disciples. He is very explicit about exactly who the sower of the bad seed really is. Matthew 13:37-39 states, "He (Jesus) answered and said unto them, He that soweth the good seed is the Son of Man. The field is the world; the good seed are the children of the kingdom; but the tares are the children of the wicked one; the enemy that sowed them is the devil; the harvest is the end of the world; and the reapers are the angels."
Let no one tell you Christ was speaking in a parable here for He was carefully explaining to His disciples the real meaning of the parable He had previously spoken to the multitude. He talked with them in private, and He used language that a child could understand. Christ's teaching of the seed of the devil (or serpent) was nothing new, it was taught from the beginning of Scripture - Genesis.
In Genesis 3:15 God is speaking to the serpent, "and I will put enmity between thee and the woman, and between thy seed and her seed; it shall bruise thy head, and thou shall bruise his heel." The bruising of the heel took place when Christ was nailed to the Cross. And finally, for those who still want further proof as to who the serpent really is; we read in Revelation 12:9, "and the great Dragon was cast out, that old Serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world." Now can anyone with eyes to see and ears to hear have any doubt or confusion about Satan's own seed?
In today's world we need to be vigilant for those who would sow seeds of doubt concerning what God's Word actually says. There is nothing wrong with honest disagreement, this does not entitle one to spread outright lies. Acts 17 provides an example of an honest disagreement when Paul disputed with other Apostles in Jerusalem whether circumcision was necessary for salvation.
Galatians 2 offers a second witness to the fact that although there was honest disagreement at the beginning of this meeting there was still fellowship at the end. It may also be surprising to note that this disagreement occurred perhaps 16 years after Yahshua's resurrection. And note that all the problems arose because "certain men from Judea" wanted to stir up discord among Christians by spreading the lie that unless Gentiles were circumcised like them they could not have salvation. In other words they denied salvation through Yahshua alone. The Lord hates those who sow discord among brethren (Proverbs 6:16-19).
Paul, under the inspiration of the Holy Spirit gives us good advice in II Timothy 2:15-16 when he says, "Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the Word of Truth. But shun profane and vain babblings for they will increase unto more ungodliness."
Let us never be afraid to study together in Christian fellowship in a positive way with an earnest heart felt desire to uncover the Truth of God's Word. Our Heavenly Father has chosen not to give us all Truth and Knowledge on a silver platter. He expects us to study His Word and search out what is true (Proverbs 25:2).
Paul also tells us the Bereans set a good example for all Christians as "they received the Word with all readiness of mind and searched the Scriptures daily, whether those things were so". (Acts 17:11).
We should study God's Word in a verse by verse, chapter by chapter and Book by Book methodology.
Don't leave anything out.
Blessings and Honor and Grace and MERCIFUL LOVE unto all who study to show themselves APPROVED a SERVANT "worthy" of His Hire...(to be counted among the "saints" when they go MARCHING IN! Amen
I want to thank PM for all the years of work, his words and dedication. I want to thank The Father for loving We His Children enough that He set forth THE PLAN OF SALVATION and destroyed the "first eart age" but not His Children. I want to thank YOU who "gather here with me" to study deeper, seek The Truth, and truly LOVE OUR FATHER! What an Honor!

"When a well-packed web of lies has been sold gradually to the masses over generations, THE TRUTH will seem utterly preposterous and its speaker a raving lunatic." Dresden James

I, Teresa D. Smith, believe Heaven is another dimension here on earth. And yes...I believe you (who believe a RAPTURE as commonly taught) do have "part" of it.The clouds mean PEOPLE in the Greek. In a crowd of people. . . (You can't OVERTHROW an EVIL government if all the soldiers are ready to RUN-AWAY or "FLY AWAY"....not the right ACTION). I am not trying to offend anyone or hurt anyone...I truly care so much that it hurts me to know that Satan has caused so many to not "arm" themselves with TRUTH and be ready to be one of those Christian Soldiers (saints) who come "MARCHING IN". We can all sit in Church on Saturdays/Sundays and sing that WE want to be "counted in that number" (777 NOT 666) ...but don't do the "work" necessary to BE so "counted".
STUDY TO SHOW YOURSELVES APPROVED...
It is my prayer to plant some seeds here, leave it to The Father to "call forth" some who want to sudy deeper FOR THEMSELVES asking HIM to touch them, and open their eyes. Please understand to let down "guards" for just a moment and "come unto Him" like a little child (eyes open and full of EXPECTATION...meaning He is the heart knower and sees WHY you come to Him). Is it to seek "HIM", is it to seek "THE TRUTH", is it to just prove that nutjob wrong, or is it to make sure you are understanding ALL That Christ would have us to SEE? Check your MOTIVE before getting started IF you want Fathers Blessings on the Study.
Father, I pray that YOU use this post to "DRAW OUT" and touch those you are seeking TRUTH and that are seeking YOU. Touch and heal IF IT BE THY WILL, and let those who need to slumber stay so to remain protected in the "cloak of innocency" because you love them. Amen.
Much LOVE, BLESSINGS, HONOR and GRACE to each of you who seek The Father I serve, and The Christ who died to set us free from Bondage and Deception.

This will finished the "AUDIO" BIBLE STUDY.
Now, If you would prefer a WRITTEN BIBLE STUDY, I have a couple of posts in my blog from May 2010 which are an INDEPTH study and can be printed out for the TRUTH SEEKER where each scripture, and word documented from the MANUSCRIPTS gives the reader and student a more able ability to see where we go astray:
RAPTURE DOCTRINE ANDTHE FALSE CHRIST IN JERUSALEM...Enjoy these and use your STRONGS concordance, KJV Bible to lock in the manuscripts and what was intended for the Children of God to understand and learn:

Jesus is The Living Word, and want a journey into the Prophetic...study to know PROPHECY and understand what is "taking place in these end-times). NO FEAR...pure exhileration for we have all been on a long journey. Not sure about you the reader, but even I love a long vacation...but love the minute I get back HOME and can sleep in my OWN BED again. It is the same here with me now, LONG TIME we have been out of the SPIRIT and IN THE FLESH, I long to be HOME again....
No one can truly UNDERSTAND Revelations and the END TIMES, if they can't grasp Genesis and what HAPPENED there!
In conclusion: example: First "manKIND" is mistranslated in the Kings James Bible to just "man" it is genesis chapter 1 verse 26......that is 6th day "creation".....8th day "creation" begins when God rested on the 7th day.....THEN he made Adam , it is NOT WRITTEN as "8th day" it is IMPLIED with "continuity". The verse for ADAM is chapter 2 verse 7....scholars have debated this very many years because the 2 adams in hebrew are so significantly different. one is ADAM and one is ETH HA AdAM....its simple to say that the first ADAM means "mankind" because following it it says that He made THEM both male and female in "OUR" image....THE second ADAM is a special man. The word "eth" is untranslatable by strongs concordance.
In Matthew 13, our Lord and Saviour explains the Parable of the Sower directly to His disciples. He is very explicit about exactly who the sower of the bad seed really is. Matthew 13:37-39 states, "He (Jesus) answered and said unto them, He that soweth the good seed is the Son of Man. The field is the world; the good seed are the children of the kingdom; but the tares are the children of the wicked one; the enemy that sowed them is the devil; the harvest is the end of the world; and the reapers are the angels."
Let no one tell you Christ was speaking in a parable here for He was carefully explaining to His disciples the real meaning of the parable He had previously spoken to the multitude. He talked with them in private, and He used language that a child could understand. Christ's teaching of the seed of the devil (or serpent) was nothing new, it was taught from the beginning of Scripture - Genesis.
In Genesis 3:15 God is speaking to the serpent, "and I will put enmity between thee and the woman, and between thy seed and her seed; it shall bruise thy head, and thou shall bruise his heel." The bruising of the heel took place when Christ was nailed to the Cross. And finally, for those who still want further proof as to who the serpent really is; we read in Revelation 12:9, "and the great Dragon was cast out, that old Serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world." Now can anyone with eyes to see and ears to hear have any doubt or confusion about Satan's own seed?
In today's world we need to be vigilant for those who would sow seeds of doubt concerning what God's Word actually says. There is nothing wrong with honest disagreement, this does not entitle one to spread outright lies. Acts 17 provides an example of an honest disagreement when Paul disputed with other Apostles in Jerusalem whether circumcision was necessary for salvation.
Galatians 2 offers a second witness to the fact that although there was honest disagreement at the beginning of this meeting there was still fellowship at the end. It may also be surprising to note that this disagreement occurred perhaps 16 years after Yahshua's resurrection. And note that all the problems arose because "certain men from Judea" wanted to stir up discord among Christians by spreading the lie that unless Gentiles were circumcised like them they could not have salvation. In other words they denied salvation through Yahshua alone. The Lord hates those who sow discord among brethren (Proverbs 6:16-19).
Paul, under the inspiration of the Holy Spirit gives us good advice in II Timothy 2:15-16 when he says, "Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the Word of Truth. But shun profane and vain babblings for they will increase unto more ungodliness."
Let us never be afraid to study together in Christian fellowship in a positive way with an earnest heart felt desire to uncover the Truth of God's Word. Our Heavenly Father has chosen not to give us all Truth and Knowledge on a silver platter. He expects us to study His Word and search out what is true (Proverbs 25:2).
Paul also tells us the Bereans set a good example for all Christians as "they received the Word with all readiness of mind and searched the Scriptures daily, whether those things were so". (Acts 17:11).
We should study God's Word in a verse by verse, chapter by chapter and Book by Book methodology.
Don't leave anything out.
