A Time and A Season

Ecclesiastes 3:1-8

To every thing there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven:

A time to be born, and a time to die; a time to plant, and a time to pluck up that which is planted;

A time to kill, and a time to heal; a time to break down, and a time to build up;

A time to weep, and a time to laugh; a time to mourn, and a time to dance;

A time to cast away stones, and a time to gather stones together; a time to embrace, and a time to refrain from embracing;

A time to get, and a time to lose; a time to keep, and a time to cast away;

A time to rend, and a time to sew; a time to keep silence, and a time to speak;

A time to love, and a time to hate; a time of war, and a time of peace.

British MPs vote an overwhelming ‘Yes’ to Palestine

274 support motion urging ‘the government to recognize the State of Palestine,’ while only 12 oppose, in vote laden with symbolism

British lawmakers voted resoundingly Monday in favor of a Palestinian state, in a debate unlikely to change government policy but laden with political symbolism.

The ayes carried the vote with 274 votes, against only 12 nays. Opposition Labour Party leader Ed Miliband, who is Jewish, voted in support of the motion.

The House of Commons debate was watched around the world after Sweden drew anger from Israel this month for saying it would recognize Palestine.

Reprobate Mind

Does it get any worse than this? Children have been reduce to nothing more than Purple Penguins….

A Nebraska school district has instructed its teachers to stop referring to students by “gendered expressions” such as “boys and girls,” and use “gender inclusive” ones such as “purple penguins” instead.

“Don’t use phrases such as ‘boys and girls,’ ‘you guys,’ ‘ladies and gentlemen,’ and similarly gendered expressions to get kids’ attention,” instructs a training document given to middle-school teachers at the Lincoln Public Schools.

“Create classroom names and then ask all of the ‘purple penguins’ to meet on the rug,” it advises…..

“Always ask yourself . . . ‘Will this configuration create a gendered space?’” the document says.

Furthermore, it instructs teachers to interfere and interrupt if they ever hear a student talking about gender in terms of “boys and girls” so the student can learn that this is wrong.

School Told to Call Kids ‘Purple Penguins’ Because ‘Boys and Girls’ Is Not Inclusive to Transgender

For this cause God gave them up unto vile affections:…………And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not convenient; Romans 1:26-28

 

To be reprobate is to be set aside as unfit and unusable. As they received in themselves the just recompense, their minds began to lose touch with reality. For a thrill or for convenience, their minds imagined reality as they would like it to be. They were given up to the lust that followed, until they came to believe their own lies. Convincing themselves that there is no God to whom we must give an account, they not only cut all the wires, but destroyed the telephone as well. They are comfortable now. There is not even any need for arrogance or boast of knowledge. The struggle has ceased. They await the blackness of eternity, convinced that it all stops at the decorated box, the coffin – by Michael Pearl.

 

Super Typhoon Vongfong

Will the Typhoon inflict further damage to the already badly crippled Fukushima Nuclear Power Plant?

Super Typhoon Vongfong, in the western Pacific Ocean, is the Earth’s strongest storm so far this year. It’s also the planet’s most powerful storm since 2013’s Super Typhoon Haiyan, which killed thousands in the Philippines last November.

Vongfong’s winds are now about 170 mph, down slightly from a peak Tuesday of 180 mph. It’s still equivalent to a Category 5 hurricane.

The Blood Moon of Sukkot

As of this writing, the 2nd Blood Moon of the 2014 – 2015 tetrad will commence in two days on the Jewish holiday of Sukkot. This is the last tetrad for the century. The previous Blood Moon was on Passover of April 15th 2014. Eighty two days later the Israel/Hamas conflict started and lasted for 50 days.

Blood Moons

 

A lunar eclipse is a sign of trouble for Israel. The previous two tedrads saw significant events in the history of Israel. Will there be another critical event just around the corner for Israel? Nothing is certain, but time will tell……

The sun shall be turned into darkness, and the moon into blood, before the great and the terrible day of the LORD come. Joel 2:31
