---------- Inspiration For the Week--- “The sword of the Lord, and of Gideon.” - Judges 7:20

Gideon ordered his men to do two things: covering up a torch in an earthen pitcher, he bade them, at an appointed signal, break the pitcher and let the light shine, and then sound with the trumpet, crying, “The sword of the Lord, and of Gideon! the sword of the Lord, and of Gideon!” This is precisely what all Christians must do. First, you must shine; break the pitcher which conceals your light; throw aside the bushel which has been hiding your candle, and shine. Let your light shine before men; let your good works be such, that when men look upon you, they shall know that you have been with Jesus. Then there must be the sound, the blowing of the trumpet. There must be active exertions for the ingathering of sinners by proclaiming Christ crucified. Take the gospel to them; carry it to their door; put it in their way; do not allow them to escape it; blow the trumpet right against their ears. Remember that the true war-cry of the Church is Gideon’s watchword, “The sword of the Lord, and of Gideon!” God must do it, it is his own work.

But we are not to be idle; instrumentality is to be used-”The sword of the Lord, and of Gideon!” If we only cry, “The sword of the Lord!” we shall be guilty of an idle presumption; and if we shout, “The sword of Gideon!” alone, we shall manifest idolatrous reliance on an arm of flesh: we must blend the two in practical harmony, “The sword of the Lord, and of Gideon!” We can do nothing of ourselves, but we can do everything by the help of our God; let us, therefore, in his name determine to go out personally and serve with our flaming torch of holy example, and with our trumpet tones of earnest declaration and testimony, and God shall be with us, and Midian shall be put to confusion, and the Lord of hosts shall reign for ever and ever.

---------- This Weeks Hot News ----------

I. Iraq pro-Saddam guerillas continued their plan to assassinate Iraq officials cooperating with American Coalition Forces. Iraqi guerillas warned several weeks ago that they would begin to target officials cooperating with American forces; such Iraqi officials were to henceforth be considered as traitors. This week, two officials were shot, one was killed. Clearly, the threat was not an idle one, and every official now a part of the new "Interim" government has to be shaking in his boots. Indeed, Coalition Forces doubled their protection immediately on the remaining officials of the Iraqi Governing Council.

Let us consider the two officials shot this week.

NEWS BRIEF: "Iraqi city's police chief slain in daytime ambush", September 16, 2003, Washington Post.

"FALLUJAH, Iraq - Masked assailants ambushed a pickup truck carrying the chief of the embattled police force in the nearby city of Khaldiya on Monday, killing him and wounding two others in a brazen daylight attack, hospital officials and police said. The death of Col. Khudheir Mikhlif Ali, 48, was a severe setback to the police force in Khaldiya, 45 miles west of Baghdad, which has become a flash point of opposition to the U.S. occupation. The killing underscored yet again the challenges facing the United States as it attempts to build up the Iraqi security forces in an effort to bring order to the country."

Every government is most dependent upon police chiefs in each town and city to maintain order and security. To lose a police chief of a significant city in a bold day-light attack is truly disturbing. Such a bold assassination will embolden the opposition and strike fear in the hearts of the Iraqis who were cooperating or who were thinking about cooperating. Such a tactic was very devastating against the South Vietnamese government during the Vietnam War.

NEWS BRIEF: "Iraqi leadership member wounded", (Reuters), Financial Times.com - September 20 2003

"BAGHDAD (Reuters) - Gunmen have shot and wounded one of three women on Iraq's U.S.-appointed Governing Council, the latest in a string of attacks on Iraqis cooperating with the country's occupying powers. The attackers fired on a car carrying Akila al-Hashemi, a Shi'ite Muslim and career diplomat. She was hit in the abdomen and three of her bodyguards were also wounded, one of them critically ..."

I remember well the Vietnam War and cannot avoid making comparisons. As we were getting mired down in the guerilla war in Vietnam's jungles, American officials decided to form a South Vietnamese Army and Police. We trained them and equipped them and set them loose to fight and defeat an enemy we were finding it difficult to vanquish. While they performed well in many instances, they could not defeat the enemy and finally succumbed. On many occasions, South Vietnamese officials were murdered, many of them in daylight. Every murder gave the Communist insurgents fresh hope and similarly discouraged the South Vietnamese. Such is the case in Iraq.

II. Americans are living today as "sheeple" who are scared to death! All the phony terror warnings we have been subjected to since 9/11/2001 have turned average Americans into such "scardy cats" that they will prove to be "putty" in the hands of our officials when a real terrorist attack occurs. In NEWS1571 entitled, "Propaganda Principle: Fear of Conflict Is Nearly As Effective As Actual Conflict In Achieving Desired Change", we reminded our readers of the maxim enunciated by Adolf Hitler: "Truth is not what is, truth is what people believe it to be".

After over 2 years of incessant bogus "terror alerts" , Americans are terrified. Listen:

NEWS BRIEF: "Living in 'apocalyptic fear': Americans more scared than ever", The Toronto Star, September 11, 2003.

"WASHINGTON—Two years on, the shock has dissipated, the memory is more distant, but the fear remains. Poll after poll released on the eve of today's second anniversary of the terrorist strikes on New York and Washington find Americans more fearful and fatalistic than they were a year ago ... The apocalyptic fear is definitely here to stay, at least in the foreseeable future."

A fearful population is a population who can be stampeded by clever officials operating according to a plan extremely well thought out, as the Illuminati plan truly is. This poll demonstrates that, when the time comes to initiate the planned urban terrorist attacks, the American people are ready to be stampeded.

Now that we know the general population is fearful, the time may be at hand to subject them to the most fearsome dictatorial laws since Josef Stalin. Our Attorney General was on the attack again last week, trying to drum up support for these fearful new laws.

III. Attorney General Ashcroft completes his city tour defending the indefensible -- the Patriot Act I and the Absolute Dictatorship it portends. Americans do not know enough to be scared!

Then, Ashcroft goes on the public offense, severely criticizing the critics of his draconian plans. Listen:

NEWS BRIEF: "Ashcroft Rips Anti-Patriot Act 'Hysteria'", ABCNews, September 15, 2003.

"Attorney General John Ashcroft denounced as 'hysteria' the contention by some librarians and civil liberties groups that the FBI can use a new anti-terror law to snoop into Americans' reading habits. In a speech Monday to an American Restaurant Association conference, Ashcroft said people are being wrongly led to believe that libraries have been 'surrounded by the FBI, with agents dressed in raincoats, dark suits and sunglasses. They stop everyone and interrogate everyone like Joe Friday."

By casting the objection against the Library Search provision into the Theater of the Absurd, Ashcroft is convincing the undiscerning that any and all objections to this provision are ridiculous and are not to be taken seriously.

This article continues:

"A portion of the Patriot Act, passed shortly after the 2001 terror attacks, gives federal authorities access to library, bookstore and other business records as part of terrorism investigations."

You have to give Ashcroft credit: he knows the soft spot of the criticism of Patriot Act I, and it is there he attacks. When he is seen as winning this argument, he is seen as winning the rhetoric battle for these "anti-terrroism" laws as a whole. In other words, by picking on a minor issue to attack, Ashcroft is seeking to permanently deflect all criticism of both Patriot Act I and the even more dictatorial Patriot Act II.

We had better hope that we can get the American people riled up about the more dangerous issues of Patriot Act I, for this extension called Patriot Act II is truly horrendous. As Alex Jones so completely reveals in his new video, "Police State 3: Total Enslavement", Americans will be suffering under dictatorship laws as severe as those of the Russians under Josef Stalin. For example, government agents can come to your home:

* Invade your home without a Judicial Warrant
* Burst into your home and arrest you without any charges
* Whisk you to prison without notifying your family where you are going or what charges are against you
* Deny you any legal representation or a fair public trial
* Sentence you without a fair public trial
* Execute you without a fair public trial
* Never notify your family or any official as to your death
* If a bystander or neighbor sees you being arrested, they had better not tell anyone or they can be arrested without charges, or without trial. Further, they would face the same kind of Death Penalty as you have just suffered!

These are the kinds of terrible parts of Patriot Act II that Ashcroft wants no man to understand. Thus, if the Attorney General can carry out a public attack on a minor issue of Patriot I and calm people down, he can then proceed to implement the more dangerous Patriot Act II without severe public scrutiny. Now you know why he chose this minor Library issue against which to attack.

However, an article last week should have served as a wakeup call to all concerned, discerning Americans; government agents are already misusing and abusing some of the "anti-terrorist" laws by using them against ordinary Americans who are clearly not terrorists. Listen:

NEWS BRIEF: "New Terror Laws Used Vs. Common Criminals", by David Caruso, Yahoo News, September 14, 2003.

"PHILADELPHIA - In the two years since law enforcement agencies gained fresh powers to help them track down and punish terrorists, police and prosecutors have increasingly turned the force of the new laws not on al-Qaida cells but on people charged with common crimes ... Civil liberties and legal defense groups are bothered by the string of cases, and say the government soon will be routinely using harsh anti-terrorism laws against run-of-the-mill lawbreakers. "

Now, wait a minute, this was not supposed to have happened!! When President Bush and Attorney General Ashcroft demanded these new laws that trample on American freedoms and liberties and upon our beloved Constitution, they said they needed these extraordinary laws so they could combat those nasty, bloodthirsty Muslim terrorists. We were promised that these laws were necessary to protect American freedoms; at the time, we were arguing that the truth lies in exactly the opposite direction, and that, in the name of protecting our freedoms, the plan is to take them away.

But, you protest, these prosecutions are not aimed at law-abiding Americans, but at the scum of our society. For the moment you are right; however, when we allow American criminals to be attacked and prosecuted by bending or a breaking our Constitutional freedoms, the time will soon arrive when law-abiding Americans will be attacked by these same inquisitorial techniques.

You see, person(s) are identified as criminal by the laws, and the laws are established according to the morals and values of the society. In our society, which has been generally governed by Judeo-Christian values, a criminal is one who murders, who steals, and who ruins the health of other people by drugs and other substances. However, the time is coming when laws will be changed quickly and wholesale, where the old Judeo-Christian values are cast aside, being replaced by Satanic values. Then, devout Christians who were formerly considered to be law-abiding will now be considered criminals. Hitler opened the prison doors shortly after gaining Absolute Dictatorship, because the criminals inside were not considered criminals any longer; but, the law-abiding German citizen whom Hitler thought of as his enemy were now the new criminals. And, Hitler needed the prison space for this new class of "criminal".

Therefore, you cannot relax your vigilance just because the Bush Administration promises that these new laws are only to combat nasty "terrorists"!

Just a few days after the 9/11 attacks, the Bush Administration redefined what a terrorist is. His redefinition meant that honest Christians can now be considered as terrorist.

Listen:

NEWS BRIEF: "Ridge Vows Balance of Rights, Security", News-Item Newspaper, Shamokin, Pennsylvania, 10/3/01, Page 1. (NOTE: Date highlighted in red so you would take note of just how quickly after the 9/11 attacks the Bush Administration redefined "terrorist")

"To those Americans who would lash out at your fellow citizens, simply because they worship differently, or dress differently, or look differently than you, there is one word for such behavior: terrorism."

[Governor Tom Ridge, in his farewell address to the State Legislature as Pennsylvania Governor, before taking up his new position at the White House as Director of Homeland Security].

The Bush Administration has just redefined who is a terrorist and what a person has to do in order to be classified by the Federal Government as a terrorist. We report this shocking story in detail in NEWS1553, and encourage you to read it carefully, for you might have missed this story in the aftermath of the 9/11 attacks.

A few weeks later, we issued another article, NEWS1579, in which we reported that Bush had adopted the Clinton concept of "Domestic Terrorist", thus setting ordinary Americans up for arrest and trial as "terrorists". We urge you to read this insightful article, for you will realize just how much in danger we are at this moment.

Now, let us go back to this Yahoo article to see that the Bush Administration intended from the beginning to push beyond even these unprecedented new laws. You will see the face of an impending dictatorship in this report.

"Within six months of passing the Patriot Act, the Justice Department was conducting seminars on how to stretch the new wiretapping provisions to extend them beyond terror cases," said Dan Dodson, a spokesman for the National Association of Criminal Defense Attorneys. "They say they want the Patriot Act to fight terrorism, then, within six months, they are teaching their people how to use it on ordinary citizens." [Ibid.]

This lying and deliberate misuse of government law enforcement resources is inexcusable! Did you see that the stated target of this breaking of the new rules was "ordinary citizens"? Thus, you know in your inner heart of hearts that the Bush Administration truly is planning to fulfill the most terrible of Illuminist plans to enslave us; once we have been taken down, the rest of the free world can easily be taken down!

Within six months of getting these new dictatorship laws, the Ashcroft Justice Department began educating its investigators how to stretch their efforts beyond the new laws so they could start using them against ordinary Americans. YOU are the target, just as we have been stating all along.

Americans, are you listening? For that matter, all citizens of all nations who still stage elections are targets as well. Most of these nations have passed laws similar to our Patriot Act I, so you can bet their investigative units were also being trained in seminars how to "extend them beyond terror cases" to ordinary citizens.

But, just when you think the news cannot get any worse, it gets worse!

Now, we discover that Bush/Ashcroft are declaring American citizens as "enemy combatants"! This unilateral declaration instantly strips the American citizen of all his rights, privileges, and liberties, plus his right to a fair public trial represented by legal counsel and a verdict delivered by a jury of his peers!

Listen:

"Critics also say the government has gone too far in charging three U.S. citizens as enemy combatants, a power presidents wield during wartime that is not part of the Patriot Act. The government can detain such individuals indefinitely without allowing them access to a lawyer ... 'We've already heard stories of local police chiefs creating files on people who have protested the Iraq war ... The government is constantly trying to expand its jurisdictions, and it needs to be watched very, very closely." [Ibid.]

We close this section by offering this "joke" about Ashcroft and his dictatorial Patriot Act II. Unfortunately, this "joke" is likely to come true sooner than you might think.

"Attorney General John Ashcroft was speaking at an elementary school about rights and freedoms in America. 'Any questions,' he asked. A little boy raised his hand. 'My name is Billy, and I have two questions. First, why are you using the Patriot Act to limit American's civil liberties? Second, why haven't any weapons of mass destruction been found in Iraq?' Just then the bell rang, and Ashcroft stated, 'We'll resume after recess.'

"Recess ended and Ashcroft again asked, 'Are there any questions? A little girl raised her hand. 'My name is Julie, and I have four questions. First, why are you using the Patriot Act to limit American's civil liberties? Second, why haven't any weapons of mass destruction been found in Iraq? Third, why did the recess bell ring ten minutes early?" "Fourth, where's Billy?'" ["Lies, Damned Lies and Statistics", by David R. Hoffman, September 17, 2003]

IV. American law may soon declare the Bible to be a "Hate Crimes" book! If you think this statement is too extreme, maybe you just have are not thoroughly appraised of the situation! Even though we are issuing an in-depth report on this issue next week, we shall give you the "barebones" version here.

First, let us see what the Canadians are in the processing of doing:

NEWS BRIEF: "Canadian House passes gay hate-crimes bill", MSNBC, September 17, 2003.

"OTTAWA — The Canadian House of Commons passed a controversial bill on Wednesday that would make it a crime to incite hatred against homosexuals. Parliament's elected chamber approved it by 141-110, overriding concerns voiced by religious groups that it could put a chill on free speech and could brand the Bible and Koran as hate literature."

Now, the measure goes to the unelected Senate, where passage is probably assured. Then, Canada will have passed a "Hate Crimes" bill so stringent that it will define as a "Hate Crime" anyone who declares that homosexuality is wrong. One does not even have to take any physical action or threaten a physical action to be guilty of a "hate crime". Rather, if a person says or writes that homosexual is wrong, he or she will be guilty of a crime called "hate". Criminal charges and prison time await the convicted.

Further, and here is the huge controversy, even if a person makes this kind of statement because of religious conviction, that person is still guilty of a hate crime! Thus, if a Bible preacher or teacher states that homosexuality is wrong, based on the authority of God's word, he can be arrested and tried for "Hate Crimes". If a Christian ministry -- using whatever medium -- teaches that homosexuality is wrong, that ministry can be legally attacked under the provisions of this new law.

Now, we get to the sticky part of this subject. When this Canadian law officially goes into effect, American ministries and pastors will at risk! How can this be, you ask? In NEWS1836, we alerted to you the reality that the U.S. Supreme Court based its Sodomy decision upon international law, not just on the U.S. Constitution!

Listen:

NEWS BRIEF: "European Legal Brief Threatened Trouble for US Over Texas Sodomy Law", Catholic Family & Human Rights Institute, July 4, 2003.

"As debate continues on the significance of the US Supreme Court's decision to overturn Texas' law against sodomy, it has gone largely unnoticed that the majority's decision relied on judicial rulings made in Europe and at the United Nations. The pivotal role of international law in the Supreme Court decision seems to confirm the concerns of conservative legal scholars, who have long warned that laws developed in Europe and at the UN could be imposed on the US. The majority opinion was guided, specifically, by the pro-homosexual rulings of the European Court of Human Rights."

Thus, since we know from this Illuminati Card Game that the U.S. Supreme Court is under the firm control of the globalist Illuminati, we can can only expect that a trial case will be speedily brought forward so the Court can rule that anyone who states or writes that homosexuality is wrong will be guilty of "Hate Crime". As in Canada, even if they take this stance based upon religious conviction, they will be charged and found guilty. Our Supreme Court can base their decision on the new Canadian law!

We are truly in danger.

V. "Historically unusual" strong storms have hit the world in the past few weeks. Hurricane Isabel led the way last week, delivering an historically unusual blow, even though she is reported to have weakened just before she hit land.

NEWS BRIEF: "East Coast Begins Huge Isabel Clean-Up; 26 Dead", Washington Post, September 20, 2003.

"WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Authorities airlifted relief supplies as communities along the U.S. East Coast began a massive clean-up after Hurricane Isabel on Saturday, but storm victims said it would take months to recover ... Washington, which closed down for two days in the face of the storm, was also declared a disaster area ... The Department of Homeland Security said it sent more than 70 truckloads of emergency supplies to hard-hit areas."

This sentence tells us one of the roles this hurricane is fulfilling: Homeland Security is once again having an opportunity to test their capability to function in a disaster role. This kind of testing will come in handy when the planned disasters begin to unfold. American citizens who are aided by this Homeland Security effort will come to view this organization in a very positive light.

"The hurricane hit hardest when it made its landfall on North Carolina's Outer Banks, a barrier island chain that loops out into the Atlantic. 'All the towns along the coast have lost houses or hotels ... It will be months before we get back to normal, it will be next summer,' said Renee Cahoon, a commissioner for coastal Dare County ... National Guards used helicopters and boats to bring in supplies -- including a mobile kitchen -- to Hatteras Village on Hatteras Island in the Outer Banks ... The village was isolated from the rest of the island by a new inlet of more than 400 yards, created by storm surge from Isabel, that cut the only road to the village. "

Some areas reported unprecedented disaster, while others were reporting the worst pummeling in 50 years or more. Other communities were reported record numbers of power outages and others were reporting record flooding. Even though this storm apparently was not as strong as other storms in the past, it definitely caused some unprecedented disasters.

As we stated last week, military scientists can control the weather, to the point of being able to create, dissipate, and steer hurricanes. In Seminar Three, "Knowing the Time of Thy Visitation", we explain this fact very well, and in our Weather Control section, we demonstrate all the provable facts that show we have been controlling weather for several decades now.

If you want to really argue, call the Wall Street Journal for their article, "Malaysia to Battle Smog With Cyclones".

VI. When mothers about to have an abortion see their babies laughing and smiling from within the womb, their hearts are usually so moved they cannot go through with the abortion. And the Abortion On Demand Industry is furious!

NEWS BRIEF: "Womb 'smile' fires abortion row", By Rebecca Urban, James Meikle, September 14, 2003, The Age.com, http://www.theage.com.au/articles/2003/09/13/1063341814497.html

"Images published for the first time yesterday suggesting unborn babies smile, blink and cry months before they leave the womb have renewed calls for abortion to be outlawed ... The technology, known as a 3-D/4-D ultrasound, also reveals limb movements at eight weeks, leaping, turning and jumping at 11 to 12 weeks, intricate finger movements at 15 weeks and yawning at 20 weeks."

Christians and Catholics have long argued vociferously that "fetuses" are simply unborn human beings. We have also long argued that the beginning of life logically occurs at the beginning, at conception. Further, once conception occurs, nothing but a baby ever comes out of that womb, thus negating the ridiculous pro-abortion arguments that science really does not know exactly when a "fetus" becomes a human being, and before that time, that living being within the womb is just "tissue matter".

Now, these new ultrasound pictures show the monstrous lie of abortion in a very human picture, but it is now too late for over 42,000,000 murdered American babies. Almost two years ago, when the first ultrasound 4-D cameras were beginning to be used, Cutting Edge collaborated with a Born Again Christian practicing obstetrician in Rhode Island to write an expose' on this terrible practice of murdering helpless, innocent babies within the womb. In NEWS1667, we not only reported on the scientific aspect of this wonderful technology, but also demonstrate that abortionists are not interested in the health of the mother; they are out simply to kill babies within the womb.

Listen to one abortion doctor explain:

"Dr. Martin Haskell, the country's leading partial-birth abortion practitioner, was asked (by the American Medical News) why he didn't just dilate the woman's uterus a little bit more and allow a live baby to come out. Answer: 'The point is here, you're attempting to do an abortion ... not to see how do I manipulate the situation so that I get a live birth instead.' " ["Truth or Consequences In Abortion Issue", by Charles Krauthammer Editorial Column, The Buffalo News, March 14, 1997, p. RC-3.]

NEWS1667 also provides the answer as to why abortionists are so intent upon killing the baby. You will be shocked

VII. Yassir Arafat was again dominating the news from the Middle East this week. First, he finally made public his complete control over the official Palestinian Authority, sweeping away all naive belief that he had granted this "government" some autonomy. Listen:

NEWS BRIEF: "Arafat gains control over composition of PA government", The Jerusalem Post, Sept 19, 2003.

"The Palestinian prime minister-designate, Ahmed Qurei, has given Palestinian Chairman Arafat and his Fatah faction considerable say over the composition of his government. Qurei has said he wants to avoid confrontations with Arafat that helped bring down his predecessor, Mahmoud Abbas ... Arafat's central role in forging the new governing team flew in the face of criticism from Israel and the United States, who charge that he is tainted by terrorism."

As we have stated many times in the past, it makes no sense whatsoever for President Bush to "aggressively" chase Osama bin Laden and Saddam Hussein for their terrorist leadership, but tolerate and even protect Yassir Arafat, an even bloodier tyrant! Arafat is proof positive that events are occurring because of a plan, not because of individual independent actions on behalf of officials throughout the region.

On September 11, The Jerusalem Post had called for Arafat's assassination! The Sharon government repudiated this idea, but began to float the concept that Israel might deport Arafat. In response, Arafat whined that he might commit suicide!

NEWS BRIEF: "Arafat Threatens Suicide Over Expulsion", 2003-09-19, New Zealand Herald.

"Speaking in his partly demolished West Bank headquarters in Ramallah, Arafat pointed to his machinegun lying on the floor and said he would use it to kill himself if Israel tried to deport or assassinate him. "I am a Palestinian soldier ... I will use my gun to defend not only myself but also defend every Palestinian child, woman and man and to defend the Palestinian existence," the 74-year-old former guerrilla leader said. "Is there anyone in Palestine who does not dream of martyrdom?"

Palestinians flocked to Arafat's defense, with some men actually forming a "human shield" around him.

NEWS BRIEF: "Human shields for Arafat 'the soldier', The Jerusalem Post, Sept 18, 2003.

"Men loyal to the Palestinian Authority chairman have begun to surround his office with human shields against an IDF attempt to deport or assassinate him, security sources said. Male supporters have already pitched tents and plan to act as human shields; women and children will move into three large mobile homes just outside Arafat's office."

The United Nations got into the act by passing a resolution severely condemning Israel for her treatment of Arafat.

NEWS BRIEF: "Israel calls UN resolution on Arafat 'irrelevant', The Jerusalem Post, Sept 21, 2003.

"Israel dismissed a UN resolution demanding it retract threats to remove Yasser Arafat, with Prime Minister Ariel Sharon's spokesman Ra'anan Gissin calling the resolution "irrelevant."

It looks as though Arafat, Sharon and Bush will be able to muddle through until September 29.

IX. As the Yellowstone Super Volcano continued to bubble, and quake, a new story emerged that should bring everyone to alert concerning the entire "Pacific Rim of Fire". We stated earlier that a large eruption at Yellowstone could ignite some or all of the Pacific Northwest and Northern California volcanos. Listen to this story:

NEWS BRIEF: "Mount Rainier called a threat: Experts: Mountain is more unstable than previously thought", MSNBC News, By Blaine Harden, THE WASHINGTON POST, August 11, 2003.

"MOUNT RAINIER NATIONAL PARK, Wash., The 3 million people who live in and around Seattle know, of course, that it is up here — nearly 2 3/4 miles high, encased in glacial ice and fattening itself up every winter with more than 50 feet of fresh snow ... “A monumental threat,” said William E. Scott, scientist in charge of the Cascades Volcano Observatory, a USGS center that monitors volcanoes from California to Alaska ... Volcanologists determined in the late 1990s that the mountain is far more unstable than previously thought ... Tens of thousands of people are being told to “enjoy the volcano in your back yard” but to be prepared to run away from it — fast. The town nearest Rainier has about 40 minutes to flee. Inside the national park that encircles the mountain, scientists in recent months have shortened the run-for-it survival time to five minutes."

Is this entire region getting ready to blow?

"Same-Sex Marriage Is Satan's Blasphemous Counterfeit To Jesus' Marriage Supper of the Lamb" - Video - Since the US Supreme Court ruled that homosexuality is legal, a flood of gay news, TV shows and entertainment exposure has exploded upon our land. We are truly being inundated with this filthy flood. As we become like Sodom and Gomorra, we would do well to realize what is happening theologically, on the spiritual plane.

Some say that the only thing that quantum theory has going for it, in fact, is that it is unquestionably correct." The question of the Rapture falls into this category as well!

"Behold Your King: Prophetic PROOF Jesus Is Messiah" - Book w/Searchable CD-ROM! A very thorough look at the Biblical and ancient rabbinic texts have always been interpreted identically! The fulfillment of these Old Testament prophecies in Jesus Christ proves He is the long- awaited Messiah. Now you will know how the early Apostles were initially so successful in winning Jewish converts, as the fulfilled prophecies were so very plain!! Extensive indexing, 7 appendices, searchable CD. -- http://www.cuttingedge.org/detail.cfm?ID=606


"Sanctuary of the Chosen" -- Christian Novel -- This exciting novel is highly recommended by Cutting Edge staff. This novel is the sequel to "Mind Invaders" and is set in a futuristic world, a compelling drama takes you behind the scenes of future wold events. He must now make a choice which could catapult him into leadership in the New World Order...or into destruction, as he begins a frantic race against death and the forces of evil. -- http://www.cuttingedge.org/detail.cfm?ID=607

 

NOTE: We also carry two relatively new Christian novels that read like a Tom Clancy novel, and yet your response has been very limited. Both Cutting Edge people who read these novels reported that, once they were about 30 pages into the book, they could not put them down until they finished, even though that meant staying up most of the night for one staffer. We complain about not having Christian choices in material like novels, but when some come up, we do not buy them. Our webmaster has read both novels by Dave Hunt as well as "Wil's Bones" and The "Third Funeral" and gave them all excellent marks. "These are books you just can't put down. Don't start on one of these late at night unless you can afford to be up all night reading it!"

These books are:

* "Wil's Bones" -- The world is stunned beyond belief and the Christian world is spinning in total disarray and confusion. A worldwide announcement has just been made from reputable sources that Jesus' grave and His bones had been discovered and positively identified!! http://www.cuttingedge.org/detail.cfm?ID=576

* "The Third Funeral" -- The characters have to deal with the great issues of life: Death. Reconciliation. Intrigue. Evangelism. As a person has faced two funerals already -- one a Jew and another a Muslim -- he is now facing a third funeral, his own. -- http://www.cuttingedge.org/detail.cfm?ID=575

----------Conclusion---------------- "He who loiters may find his skirts crimson with the blood of souls"

“In the evening withhold not thy hand.” - Ecclesiastes 11:6

In the evening of the day opportunities are plentiful: men return from their labour, and the zealous soul-winner finds time to tell abroad the love of Jesus. Have I no evening work for Jesus? If I have not, let me no longer withhold my hand from a service which requires abundant labour. Sinners are perishing for lack of knowledge; he who loiters may find his skirts crimson with the blood of souls. Jesus gave both his hands to the nails, how can I keep back one of mine from his blessed work? Night and day he toiled and prayed for me, how can I give a single hour to the pampering of my flesh with luxurious ease? Up, idle heart; stretch out thy hand to work, or uplift it to pray; heaven and hell are in earnest, let me be so, and this evening sow good seed for the Lord my God.

The evening of life has also its calls. Life is so short that a morning of manhood’s vigour, and an evening of decay, make the whole of it. To some it seems long, but a four-pence is a great sum of money to a poor man. Life is so brief that no man can afford to lose a day. It has been well said that if a great king should bring us a great heap of gold, and bid us take as much as we could count in a day, we should make a long day of it; we should begin early in the morning, and in the evening we should not withhold our hand; but to win souls is far nobler work, how is it that we so soon withdraw from it? Some are spared to a long evening of green old age; if such be my case, let me use such talents as I still retain, and to the last hour serve my blessed and faithful Lord. By his grace I will die in harness, and lay down my charge only when I lay down my body ..." ["Spurgeon's Morning and Evening Devotions", A.W. Tozer CD-ROM Library]
