either Jesus Christ is LORD.
Or he ain't (I Cor 15).
I'm figuring, he is....
Maybe this will tell why...
Well, my blogs full of investigations, complaints, and exposes have investigated, exposed, and of course complained. While this one -- "
JESUS LORD CHRIST" sat silent the whole time.
At the end of the day -- I had to do this (
LetsGetHonest, The
FamilyCourtFranchise, and perhaps the better part of year commenting on "
Scranton Political Times/CAFR, on
the ABA ("Who are they, again?", etc.) -- I ended up with the same conclusion (only much more documented)-- the world's f*cked; its systems are built on the love of money, most people ARE (deaf, dumb, blind and sitting in the shadow of darkness), and for that matter,
who is going to stand in the gap?
Quite honestly, I was many times angry with spiritual people who could give a crap about what's happening to the political system, or the gradual takeover of the Protestant Evangelical Dominionist etc. with this, that, faith-based offices and/or/either a neat blend sidewise into the gol-danged Unification Church (which has happened), or things like Opus Dei, or as it were, groups like this in the public forum -- well, sometimes more than under the table: "
Defending Our Father's House," which sounds innocent, but not if you read some of the letters appealing to "our Fathers' and the 50 Shepherds of the US (with allegiance to the Vatican) etc. Maybe I'll transport the Knights of Columbus-style letter over to this blog to illustrate the difference (It's somewhere on Scranton PT). I believe Wade Horn or David Blankenhorn may have been a signatory.
(that's really funny, and a good resource blog overall. This writer has it down!)
Both start out with a corporate charter of beliefs by the leaders of that religion or political party.
These charters and beliefs are claimed by both entities to be divinely inspired.
Both are registered with the State via their Articles of Incorporation.
Both write and re-write history; and then edit and interpret their own writings. :)
They are both a form of control, both in political and moral correctness.
Members of both fear excommunication and public ridicule for questioning or acting against these chartered beliefs.
Political parties make the laws of the land and command consent, while religions teach that members must follow the “law of the land” as God commands.
Both give power to otherwise powerless men (and sometimes women), who dress in robes and judge all people.
And I was at some level angry with some brothers and sisters in Christ, who I know personally and have prayed and even brought some deliverance to me- - for their failure to wake up, and letting me, a woman, take on the political system, with others (often but not always Christians) and expose the slush funds -- which are many. I miss my children, I miss doing these wonderful things -- and instead dealing with ugliness on the family front and desolation and a sense of how very truly alienated I am from investing in this world-system. This
OIKONOMIC structure.
There are two factors that helped me turn the final corner when I saw them in action. I think one of them is definitely (and more info at "Let's Get Honest," above) -- as Walter Burien keeps blogging once he found out -- the collective government wealth HAS been internationally centralizing the planet. I heard about this only with, oh, the last month or less:
"
Comprehensive Annual Financial Statements"* aka "
You will not get a Stronger Wakeup Call in Your Lifetime"
(* a very short audio interview lays it out, basically).
In addition, there's the wonderful
Catherine Austin Fitts and her work after discovering, from near the top, how HUD is being run as a criminal enterprise, and putting out some diagrams, too. While not sure, I believe both of these are also Christians at some level (I have my reasons, although that neither validates nor invalidates their work. However, it's key insight and beautifully laid out in both cases).
Then there's the unbelievable personal situation I have been in year, after year, after year, surrounding my family and ALL of it driven by this insane fear of not having money when in fact, they have it. It's tangible, and terrible -- including a terrible waste of life. it's also more than I can address, when people are literally in-sane (they do not have sound minds, or reason, or care that they don't they are invested in THIS world, and behaving like those who run it, not having another standard to live by. And that's basically, evil; not just one form, but multiple coinciding forms, and many active at once. Yuck. And I feel "yuck" about myself to unable to shluck my feet out of the basement, gutter MUCK, and to think some of us came from the same mother and father. YUCK!!!
So here we are, and I purpose to shut up, and LJC more. This is where I start -- because I'm here too. I want back!
My first language was really, probably music. By contrast, after a while, the sound of my own voice (in print) speaking facts about the situations we are in -- it's less than a sustainable mental diet. I was problemsolving and observing with attention for the purpose of extrication, and also there was a good deal of therapy involved -- i.e., this writing was a voice that couldn't be as easily interrupted as my work life, relationships, contacts, and in this context, pretty much anything that was sticking out above surface level and within kicking range of the family gang(sters).
(Sorry to provide symbolism instead of the identifiable situation, but the situation is still live, and I'm just not going to. The term "gang" applies although not in the usual sense. But they do what gangs do and operate like ones. It's sick....)
Probably like walking with two left feet, and stiff -- like, with my pride inside. Let's try again!
For real....
ONE PERSON, ONE PURPOSE. AND -- ONE LORD.
So, I think it's time to re-integrate. I want to (better) know LORD JESUS CHRIST. (this blog title is a factor of the "LJC" one being taken already, that's all). I see too much else.
Another way of putting this: the Word of God appears to hold VERY true....
Let me put it out here, and readers, please forgive for so much front material!
<< Isaiah 55 >> King James Version | |
1Ho, every one that thirsteth, come ye to the waters, and he that hath no money; come ye, buy, and eat; yea, come, buy wine and milk without money and without price.
"Huh? In THIS world? HOW?!"
2Wherefore do ye spend money for that which is not bread? and your labour for that which satisfieth not? {{INSTEAD...}} hearken diligently unto me, and eat ye that which is good, and let your soul delight itself in fatness.
OK, so there is another way, then...
3Incline your ear, and come unto me: hear, and your soul shall live; and I will make an everlasting covenant with you, even the sure mercies of David.
"Hear, and my soul shall live?"
EVERLAStiNG COVENANT -- the SURE MerCIES OF DAVID?
I have needed mercy, for sure! I'm interested.
Because my job, my relationships, my housing, my contact with my children -- my life is not sure otherwise. Little is sure in this world
(see "Aurora, Colorado, 2012")
what are "the sure mercies of David, tell me! we all need mercy..."
Now this is a listen part -- it is a declaration and it is a prophesy. It is SURE.
4Behold, I have given him for a witness to the people, a leader and commander to the people.
5Behold, thou shalt call a nation that thou knowest not, and nations that knew not thee shall run unto thee because of the LORD thy God, and for the Holy One of Israel; for he hath glorified thee.
That is just beautiful -- given for a witness to the people, a leader and a commander. These are needed. I've seen it. People, are too often, 'Sheeple" And a nation of sheeple is a nation on the rocks....
Some people may wonder why I'd start a blog "Jesus Lord Christ" with Isaiah 55, and not somewhere in the "New Testament." I don't know. But read on. These are beautiful words -- and VERY good advice!
I'd heed it if I were you, and as for me, I feel I'd better to. But then again, that's probably that holy spirit inside, resonating to this tune....It comes by faith and by hearing, and somehow -- the mixture works. God helps us hear His word. Some are deaf to it a lifetime. Go figure. But "Hear ye this!" . . . . .
6Seek ye the LORD while he may be found, call ye upon him while he is near:
7Let the wicked forsake his way, and the unrighteous man his thoughts: and let him return unto the LORD, and he will have mercy upon him; and to our God, for he will abundantly pardon.
There are wicked men, and they have certain ways, they do wicked things.. I've seen it.
There are unrighteous men, and they think certain ways. when I'm also thinking unrighteously, it is a DIFFERENT way than the faith way, which (at least for this woman) is a more peace-inside way.
And here it is:
8For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways, saith the LORD.
OK, is that clear? There's a difference.
Sounds like the LORD knows something-- and like he has what
we commonly call "boundaries." He knows Himself, and he knows us -- and they are DIFFERENT in thought life.
9For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways, and my thoughts than your thoughts.
(Go outside, and look up.)
10For as the rain cometh down, and the snow from heaven, and returneth not thither, but watereth the earth, and maketh it bring forth and bud, that it may give seed to the sower, and bread to the eater:
11So shall my word be that goeth forth out of my mouth: it shall not return unto me void, but it shall accomplish that which I please, and it shall prosper in the thing whereto I sent it.
Now He's not talking thoughts -- but word. Powerful words. Read on:
12For ye shall go out with joy, and be led forth with peace: the mountains and the hills shall break forth before you into singing, and all the trees of the field shall clap their hands.
13Instead of the thorn shall come up the fir tree, and instead of the brier shall come up the myrtle tree: and it shall be to the LORD for a name, for an everlasting sign that shall not be cut off.
_ _ _ __ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _- That is all of 'ISAIAH 55" _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
I don't know the significance of the plants here -- however most of us (who've read it) can recall from Genesis 3, "the fall" and thorns and briers were part of the curse.
Again, I note -- this is "nations {plural} that knew not thee shall run unto thee..." and it's to him who is thirsty and has no money. What it is he needs -- water, (satiates thirst) wine (makes the heart merry), milk (nourishes) -- money can't buy. He doesn't have the kind of MONEY that can do those things.
Think he can? Not to make this too "current events," but apparently a certain "Prince Harry" from the UK was caught cavorting in the buff with, ah, some friends.... Does he have enough money? What's his life about?
What about the late Whitney Houston (one of my favorite singers, voices) -- died in a bathtub, age 48, and drug issues. Somehow -- No, there has to be another way.

I wrote as a mother, I wrote as a woman who'd been beaten in marriage, I wrote as someone who watched others just "pretend" nothing happened; or picked up the pieces, dusted us off, and sent us back -- to go through some more of it.
I wrote angry, I wrote sometimes happy. I wrote in shock. I wrote fed, and I wrote hungry, too.
I wrote my story, I wrote the story. I listened to Moms (and Dads) and looked up the court situations in their states. I comforted, prayed, was prayed for and comforted. At times I begged for necessities (talking, recently).
I wrote distressed, I wrote sad, I wrote triumphant to have discovered that THIS way, and not THAT way, was closer to the systemic, political, governmental truth, not that we're screwed -- but better understanding of HOW we're screwed.
Boy was THAT "productive"! And at the end of the day, I have come to concise definitions of - the law, lawyers, for the most part, the USA (we're the world's largest per capita jailor in fact) -- the courts, and what it means to be a 'citizen/subject' of the United States of America.
I figured out -- this isn't exactly rocket science, but there's a certain fascination with the methodology -- that probably what's actually behind the push for "welfare reform" marriage/fatherhood/ abstinence, etc. and the entire franchise system aimed at regulating and controlling "low-income" people (and then expanding that group infinitely outwards and upwards) was actually to get people to CONSENT to CONTRACT with what they think bears at least SOME resemblance to what they learned in (state-sponsored) public schools about the USA. Home of the free,land of the brave, scourge of the politically incorrect, and values system of the ages . . . . . .
No -- seriously, the purpose of the push to get Moms and Dads to marry, and to sign up for birth certificates, social security numbers, and of course hopefully marriage licenses -- was economic.
Not spiritual, not social, not even really religions -- not practical, not for the children ,and not for the good of anyone. The reason for the season of promoting marriage was to get registration for people to contract (receive benefits) from the federal government and so become a registered bonafide "citizen" of its territories, the "it" being USA, Inc. -- which is (with Congress) located in a ten-square mile (or so) place called Washington, D.C.
But -- just as in the Bible one speaks of "fellowcitizens with the saints and of the household of God" (Ephesians, I believe, right?) -- contracting to do it with the USA actually puts you subject to the entire --- well, it puts you as a shareholder in a trillion$$ debt. You are by consent going to be managed (and your kids) to pay it off too -- or else. You will in fact be micromanaged as a member of this corporation.
I'd say, combined with years of experience (a good deal of suffering involved, many kinds) plus about three years of continued writing and looking things up -- I have come right back to the same place.
The Bible says it's better -- and it's "God's truth" about the matter. The economic systems of the world -- which are going to fall (implode or explode, either way) suddenly and cause major distress -- are in place. There is very little that holds them back -- and for the most part, it sure as heck ain't them 501(c)3s called "churches," who are happily receiving perks and dispensing control of their flocks and cooperation with the government in spreading the good news -- you'd better get married, and etc.
And "men, keep your women in line...." Do not report abuse, of them, or of children. This is a spiritual matter, best handled by spiritual counseling (sure, yeah). . . . .
No -- we need LORD JESUS CHRIST -- and not the system of control and abuse which has spread throughout the world and is posing as Christ. Protestant, Catholic -- not really that different. There is a way -- and to understand that way, look at Him. And follow. HINT -- there may not be a lot of live examples to follow Read the Word. Then DO.
