Since your lovingkindness is better than life itself, my lips will forever praise you...

What is life that it should take time away from gazing at your breathtaking grace?
What can compare to the One outside of time and space?
Nothing is the reply.
Why even wonder why...


What is more beautiful than your majestic hand?
Creation is a witness to your glory but only some understand.
This is by design, and I feel blessed beyond measure.
I bought the land because I found my treasure.

I never understood...
why invest so much in the temporary?
I always thought...
it seems so ordinary.

On this side there's only one thing for sure,
and all know it.
But the other side is right next to it.

If beauty and glory are worth so much,
then what is the price of eternity?

Without questioning media sources’ motives, there are more and more news regarding events that can be perceived as cataclysmic, world-ending, and apocalyptic.

It's as if the end-times are becoming entertainment genre.

I can’t help but notice the “this story is part of Barack Obama” thing again. I looked at other headlines and none mention “this story is part of…”

UNITED NATIONS (Reuters) - The United States blocked on Tuesday a U.N. Security Council statement condemning the escalating conflict between Israel and the Palestinians in the Gaza Strip, setting the scene for a possible showdown between Washington and Russia on the issue.

Either that or maybe Washington wants to appear sympathetic to the Jewish cause. Why does Satan hate Jacob so much? Because he is God's chosen. 

The New Age

At its core, the new age doesn’t deny the existence of God the Creator. At its highest levels, knowledge is bold enough to not have to brush off mentions of satan as mere foolishness or humor. Instead, knowledge takes the accusation right on and rationalizes it just as done in the garden. Higher degree illuminists claim that Lucifer, is the one responsible for endowing mankind with knowledge and/or intelligence. 

Since knowledge puffs up, those who love to be puffed up are prideful because of how much they know, and thus will unquestionably accept rhetoric  that stems from any thinking that advocates for knowledge as supreme. Unknowingly, secularists and their worldly way of thinking follow new ageism and all of its lies because knowledge has led to the fooling of the masses. This is why TRUTH is bigger than knowledge/intellect. Because Truth has no need for concoction. It simply is. And there is nothing more absolute than just being. No need for explanation. No ifs or buts. But for darkness to convince the masses, it must think its way through. It has to fool people into believing it as truth because if it were to simply tell the truth, it would lose.

Those who have already pledged an allegiance to satan have been given a “stake” into his worldly affairs. Power, money, knowledge, vanity, sadism, all intertwine in the kingdom of darkness. Again, the boldest soldiers of the army of darkness are in possession of knowledge that their serfs do not have. These bold ones accept God the Father as Creator but do not accept that God the Father is worthy of worship. Rather, they believe that the one worthy of worship is Lucifer, whom they credit with giving mankind knowledge, their prized possession. However, they miss out on another obvious truth. Satan is the materialization of selfishness which is an opposite of love. Selfishness and hate are closely knit together. With this in mind, members of the army of darkness must believe that satan is capable of loving them at some point. If not, then they are masochists. Neither scenario appears impossible. It is also very possible that these with esoteric knowledge accept the Word as true and as such, and in their boldness, also provoke the Truth to materialize so as to suggest that cards have been left unturned. Otherwise, why would they carry out a plan that leads to their destruction? Is it possible that those deemed for destruction and those who see that can accept their destiny with arms wide open? Maybe.

Knowledge is misleading. It is said that “knowledge is power”. But consider what knowledge brought forth: DEATH! 

Given this truth, I can make the argument that only God should possess knowledge since humans are obviously unable to handle it.

From a Christian perspective, this begs the question:

If I trust God, then why do I need to know anything?

A truce has been reached. But for biblical purposes, it doesn't count unless AC signs it himself.

Matthew 24 - a reference regarding desolation

¹⁵ “So when you see standing in the holy place ‘the abomination that causes desolation,’^[a] spoken of through the prophet Daniel—let the reader understand— ¹⁶ then let those who are in Judea flee to the mountains.

This is how the bible outlines the 7 year peace treaty, its breaking after 3.5 years, and Jesus' warning of the Great Tribulation.

Daniel 9 - 7 year peace treaty

²⁵ “Know and understand this: From the time the word goes out to restore and rebuild Jerusalem until the Anointed One,^[f] the ruler, comes, there will be seven ‘sevens,’ and sixty-two ‘sevens.’ It will be rebuilt with streets and a trench, but in times of trouble. ²⁶ After the sixty-two ‘sevens,’ the Anointed One will be put to death and will have nothing.^[g] The people of the ruler who will come will destroy the city and the sanctuary. The end will come like a flood: War will continue until the end, and desolations have been decreed. ²⁷ He will confirm a covenant with many for one ‘seven.’^[h] In the middle of the ‘seven’^[i] he will put an end to sacrifice and offering. And at the temple^[j] he will set up an abomination that causes desolation, until the end that is decreed is poured out on him

****BREAKING NEWS****

BUS EXPLOSION IN TEL AVIV.

At least 10dead.

This certainly will have an impact on current truce talks.

"Israel position precarious. Meanwhile watch CNN and AP bias to point of embarrassment."

An interesting observation on the upper left hand corner of this article. It said:

“This story is part of Barack Obama”

  

Now it has been changed to "this story is part of the Israel-Gaza conflict"...

I suspect an evacuation would only be needed if some other countries got involved. Hamas itself wont cause anyone to leave.

An epiphany...

IS IT POSSIBLE AND HIGHLY LIKELY THAT GOD TALKS TO YOU MORE OFTEN WHEN YOU DO THINGS WHILE THINKING OF OTHERS?

IS IT POSSIBLE THAT WHILE NOT THINKING OF YOURSELF, NO MATTER HOW MANY FEW SECONDS IT MAY BE, GOD RECOGNIZES UNSELFISHNESS AND AS SUCH REWARDS?

MR AC, who according to the bible is to sign a 7 year peace treaty in the holy land, weighs in on the latest conflict.

10:44AM EST November 18. 2012 - BANGKOK (AP) — President Obama said Sunday that an incursion by Israel's forces into the Gaza Strip could deepen its own death toll, cautioning against an escalation even as he defended Israel's right to defend itself. To Palestinians, Obama warned the latest crisis could crush peace hopes for years.

"Israel has every right to expect that it does not have missiles fired into its territory," Obama said at the start of a three-nation tour in Asia.

"If that can be accomplished without a ramping up of military activity in Gaza, that's preferable," he said. "It's not just preferable for the people of Gaza. It's also preferable for Israelis, because if Israeli troops are in Gaza, they're much more at risk of incurring fatalities or being wounded."
