When spoke of Rebuke, I realized now that it is not in God's favor, if I focus my boldness in this alone and not in the responsibility of preaching, mission. God is rebuking me.[@more@]
It seems that way. Perhaps the increasing responsibilities and unorganized concerns are the only cause, rather than aging. Perhaps aging only has little to do with this case.[@more@]
In the house of God, I have removed myself in educational matter. Which I must not do too often.

Need to get a bicycle by next Wednesday. MTA 7-day tix will end.
Seems to safe money on MTA transportation and perhaps even time.
Thanks to the strike, I have come to discover this. Which, from certain point of view, is a rather slow realization.

America and those within are truly blinded.
Materialists denying materialisms.
I must end my time here soon. When I decided to stay, I decided intentionally. To gain what materialistic matter there is to gain, to see what greatness there is supposed to be. And only come to realize now, that I am nothing. It is done.
Could the days of this continent be numbered? Could President Washington's vision come to be? If so, I'd be damned for realizing this and still be here while better matters await me elsewhere.
This quotes the words of Abraham Lincoln, the greatest President of the United States of America, appointing Thursday, 30th of April, 1863, as a National Fast Day:
"We have been the recipients of the choicest bounties of Heaven. We have been preserved, these many years, in peace and prosperity. We have grown in numbers, wealth and power, as no other nation has ever grown. But we have forgotten God. We have forgotten the gracious hand which preserved us in peace, and multiplied and enriched and strengthened us; and we have vainly imagined, in the deceitfulness of our hearts, that all these blessings were produced by some superior wisdom and virtue of our own. Intoxicated with unbroken success, we have become too self-sufficient to feel the necessity of redeeming and preserving grace, too proud to pray to the God that made us!
It behooves us then, to humble ourselves before the offended Power, to confess our national sins, and to pray for clemency and forgiveness."

Am I really Jonah?
Oh, how could I follow a fallen path? No.
Jonah was great in sharing his failure, I must melt my hatred for men with love. However, I must not replace my hatred for sins with comforts.
Perhaps it is time to consider, that the time has come?[@more@]
Imagine there's no heaven?
Imagine there's no hell?
Who are you kidding?
Now
the world has resolved to cowardly act in achieving peace. The battle
of the end is near, where the war of the unseen shall surface.
This song is even inscribed at the world's largest Cathedral, St. John the Divine, New York.
Seems that peace can only be achieved if God is taken out of the picture.
Sigh...A better world as one apart from God? Sounds like Babel. I do say, you're a dreamer. Thanks to you, you're not the only one.
May God have mercy on all of us.
Oh God, please remember your everlasting kindness and mercy, for they are ever of old.
May God's elected children be proclaimed! Palestinians, Israelites and others alike.
Amen.

Oh Timothy, Oh Timothy...
What are you moiling about? Why?
How long are you going to keep this up?
Do you ever stop and plan more carefully?
Do you ever meditate? Do you ever do it anymore?
Are you so blinded by worldly things that you are so fretful?
What then if they are not worldly matters?
Oh Timothy!
You have eyes, see!
You have ears, hear!
You have a head, think!

One says: How can my methods be wrong? How can my ways be unbiblical? Don't they believe and got saved because of me? Because of my method? As long as I don't "sin", I am doing the right thing.
To answer this, I only have one stumbling block for you:
Judas Iscariot was sent to spread God's glory, do you think there are those who were saved by God via Judas' preaching?
Do you really think Judas betrayed Jesus because he hated Jesus? It would seem that Peter would be more likely to hate Jesus, by human standard. Yet, none knew who to point but himself when Jesus told them about his betrayal.
You might say, Judas, the treasurer, betrayed Jesus because of greed. But let me ask you again, did Judas also hated Jesus? disliked Jesus? or could he also be greedy, and still want to be on Jesus' side? After all, Jesus is the miracle worker, nothing is impossible for Him, not even getting out of any captivity.
Oh do not be so quick to judge. It is not a matter of hating or not hating.
Salvation belongs to God and God alone.
We preach, we spread the gospel because we as christians are supposed to do so. Not because for our salvation's sake. How bright do you think the Glory of God is?
[@more@]Wake up!!!
Do not use weakness as comfort, do not use it as encouragement.
It is unbiblical. We are soldiers, not perverts.
A soldier knows who his enemy is and who his friends are.
We must be forgiving to men, but not to erroneous teaching, faith and doctrine.
