JIL 33rd Anniversary

Science Misinformation Campaign

 Mainstream science told us that we can know how old the universe by Hubble measurement. The term they use to tell age of cosmic event is Light Years. Come on; stop the crap of calling light years as measurement of time. Obviously the term are being used to mislead the general public. Light Year is a unit of distance NOT time. Their data telling us that the universe is Billion and billions of years old are unverifiable and obvious brainwashing. 

   They want to make us believe that the universe is very old so that they can justify the Big Bang theory, which states everything happen by chance and the formation of the universe took Billions and billions of years to happen.  As you can see, they can’t make anything just appear instantly by Random/Chance in a very short time. So what they do is twist real science to fit their model of the universe. The longer the time frames, the better the chance of an accident to happen (Randomness). But what they are NOT telling us (in simple laymen terms) is that they had been wrong so far, and they are keeping it a secret, so they can get away from humiliations.

   What Big Bang theorist wishes to achieved is to discredit the Bible that states “…and God said, Let there be light, and there was light.” There is no gap of billions and billions of years there…just a one sentence breath from God can make everything to happen.

   Big Bang assumes, there was an original high concentration of energy somewhere in space. As far as I know it is impossible for anything to happen in a vacuum. Yes, it is still a vacuum space since air or any type of gas still non-existent. It is like this according to them, “In the beginning there was an original high concentration of energy …” NOW wait a minute! From where is that energy again?!

   Since Science is reason, there must be a logical reason where did it come from?

   It was just there. Ah Ok. Continue…

   Suddenly this concentration decided to explode. WAIT A MINUTE AGAIN!!! Why did it explode?

   My grade school science teacher told me in order for anything to explode; you at least must have a vibration and frictions…Sadly, we can’t find those things on BIG BANG science textbook…any details at all but just assumptions.

Ah! At this point I think there’s no reasons to continue since what you are going to tell me is another science fiction…from this explosion the cloud gas in some miraculous chance able to gather dust (from where this particle came we cannot tell) and after billions of years they form stars and planets and so forth….

   I just can’t buy those stupid explanations if I were a scientist. Immaterial things; creating matter? That was ancient imaginations not factual science.

. Theory says the only elements made would be hydrogen and helium. Helium does not form molecules. So the only molecule that can be formed is molecular hydrogen. Molecular hydrogen is easily destroyed by UV light and usually needs dust grains to form. The dust grains require heavier elements. Since the stars make the heavier elements then they can’t exist, so the only material that can cool is atomic hydrogen, and this would leave the matter over 100 times too hot to collapse.Abraham Loeb of Harvard’s Center for Astrophysics says The truth is that we don’t understand star formation at a fundamental level (1).1. Chown, M., "Let there be Light", New Scientist 157(2120) pp 26-30, Feb. 1998.

   Maybe you start believing in a Spiritual Non-fiction explanation found in Genesis. Was it hard to believe that God created the heaven and the earth in just 6 days? But that was what you are telling in your Science Journals.

  Science is just adding “billions” to seconds. That is deception as far as I’m concern.

Now let us examine how OLD earth really is…

 Let me borrow some of your Scientist statement regarding the earth’s age according to what they have observed:

   Evolutionist claim: diversity of species is developed through gradual processes over many generations.

   If that is the case…then why an evolutionist like Robert Carroll would wrote this in his book,

, " Perhaps we should not be surprised that vertebrate paleontologists did not support the prevailing view of slow, progressive evolution but tended to elaborate theories involving saltation, orthogenesis, or other vitalistic hypotheses. Most of the evidence provided by the fossil record DOES NOT SUPPORT (my emphasis) a strictly gradualistic interpretation, as pointed out by Eldridge and Gould (1972), Gould and Eldridge (1977), Gould (1985), and Stanley (1979, 1982)."(1)

1. Carroll, R., "Vertebrate Paleontology and Evolution", W. H. Freeman and Co., New York, 1988, p. 4.

The evolutionist Stephen Jay Gould stated, "The absence of fossil evidence for intermediary stages between major transitions in organic design, indeed our inability, even in our imagination, to construct functional intermediates in many cases, has been the persistent and nagging problem of gradualistic accounts of evolution."

The evolutionist Colin Patterson stated in response to a letter written concerning his book, "I fully agree with your comments on the lack of direct illustration of evolutionary transitions in my book. If I knew of any, fossil or living, I certainly would have included them…..I will lay it on the line, there is not one such fossil for which I can make a watertight argument"

Radiometric As Standard Physical Science?

   Perhaps you have heard carbon dating when we want to estimate the age of fossils…how did it really work was really suspicious from the start. Let us read how this witchcraft was conducted.

Radioactive isotopes are unstable and spontaneously decays, emitting particles and / or wavelike radiation. It cannot be predicted exactly when, if ever, an unstable nucleus will decay, but a large group of identical nuclei decay at a predictable rate. This predictability of decay rate allows radioactivity to be used for estimating the age of materials that contain radioactive substances.

   That was NOT science at all but GUESSING. This Age Measurement is nothing but pure speculations and even outright deceptions. There have been many valid experiments demonstrating the half-life of these nuclei can be altered under the correct conditions.

   What evolutionist is doing is not science but Sorcery. They want us to accept what they think whether this had no basis or mere imaginations. Was these just like hypnotism.?

If an intelligent designer is rejected as non-science, then you must be able to explain the origin of life as random chance from lifeless material. – Patrick H. Young

Ashamed of the Gospel?

Romans 1:16–17 (ESV) For I am not ashamed of the gospel, for it is the power of God for salvation to everyone who believes, to the Jew first and also to the Greek. ¹⁷ For in it the righteousness of God is revealed from faith for faith, as it is written, “The righteous shall live by faith.”

When I decided creating this website about a year ago, it had been my desire to truly share the Gospel of Jesus Christ. 

Now this is eternal life: that they may know you, the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom you have sent.-- John 17:3

   Even before the advent of internet, I already have made some notes and reading since my conversion around 1985. I can't help but share the new life I found in Jesus Christ...and I also had this compassion on people seeing they are being led astray; simply because of ignorance.  No one is telling them the truth and most are still worshiping God in vain. I don't think there is a shortage of preacher with good intentions...but not as wise as their real enemy. Satan and his cohorts are constantly weaving deceptions and if a Christian is not updated, there is a very strong tendency that he or she too can be misled.

   When you love someone you want to know more about that person. Do you love God? Where can we know more about God? 

   No other book is as time tested than the BIBLE. No matter what it's detractor are saying, it still stood the test of time. (Read: Was the original Bible preserve? and Why the Bible is Real)

On Other Issues

   Most pastor; although I am not blaming them, tend to stay within their congregation. Maybe a little outreach here and there but mostly stayed on the safe side of the issue. 

   I have a different calling...or passion. I want to tackle serious and relevant issues. Like who would care to preach to you if Jesus had long hair or not? or who will share to you New World Order in the pulpit? Who will tell you the Political stand point of Christians? Does your preacher tells you that "soul-mate" is not Biblical or where the origin of false practices came from? or How Darwinism had changed much of our worldview?

   Those issues are important but can't easily be obtained in Churches. So, I made my research asking God for guidance to lead me with the right resources. What I discover are vast collections of truths that are kept away from public knowledge.  

 I intend to write areas that are not discussed (either avoided or neglected by other Ministers)The driving verse of this blog are those what you can read at the header of this blog. 

Don't let anyone capture you with empty philosophies and high-sounding nonsense that come from human thinking and from the spiritual powers of this world, rather than from Christ. -- Colossians 2:8

"My people are being destroyed for lack of knowledge..." Hosea 4:6

  The above verses as the measuring tools for this blog. I make thorough research on articles...and also simply re-post items from sources to give my reader wider scope on other related issues. I also share another faith's belief system in some cases to stress my point or when I am still on the process of digesting articles that I have NO further knowledge at the moment. We are told to test every spirit so in like manner I simply collect data before making further commentaries.  

Dear friends, do not believe every spirit, but test the spirits to see whether they are from God, because many false prophets have gone out into the world.-- 1 John 4:1

   I am not ashamed of the Gospel. I've been experiencing insults and persecution by these...BUT I rejoice because I shared with the cross that Our Lord bear.

Romans 8:17 Now if we are children, then we are heirs--heirs of God and co-heirs with Christ, if indeed we share in his sufferings in order that we may also share in his glory.   

   Gospel is good news and therefore needed to be shared. Almost all Christian share their faith but I notice something quite troubling how other Christians treat the Gospel. We sometimes soften the Bible message so that we may fit in the crowd. We sometimes just simply turn our head away or close our eyes when we saw our friend or relative kneeling before idols. Christians may have forgotten that, it is also a sin not to do the right thing when needed. 

   One must remember that when a Christian withhold the truth, if he had the chance to say, is also a SIN. 

   Having many friend is commendable...but to be afraid to lose friendship, so that we shut our mouth in telling the truth is like being the Priest and Levite  from the Good Samaritan story. (The Good Samaritan)

Luke 10:30-37 Jesus answered, "A certain man was going down from Jerusalem to Jericho, and he fell among robbers, who both stripped him and beat him, and departed, leaving him half dead. By chance a certain priest was going down that way. When he saw him, he passed by on the other side.  In the same way a Levite also, when he came to the place, and saw him, passed by on the other side. But a certain Samaritan, as he traveled, came where he was. When he saw him, he was moved with compassion, came to him, and bound up his wounds, pouring on oil and wine. He set him on his own animal, and brought him to an inn, and took care of him. On the next day, when he departed, he took out two denarii, and gave them to the host, and said to him, ‘Take care of him. Whatever you spend beyond that, I will repay you when I return.’ Now which of these three do you think seemed to be a neighbor to him who fell among the robbers?" He said, "He who showed mercy on him." Then Jesus said to him, "Go and do likewise."

   Most Christians only share the GOOD NEWS of the Bible but avoid the BAD NEWS which was also written therein. 

Jeremiah 23:16 This is what the LORD Almighty says: "Do not listen to what the prophets are prophesying to you; they fill you with false hopes. They speak visions from their own minds, not from the mouth of the LORD.

Saved without Biblical Faith, Pope says!

Nonbelievers Too Can Be Saved, Says Pope

Code: ZE05113005 | Date: 2005-11-30

Refers to St. Augustine's Commentary on Psalm 136(137)
VATICAN CITY, NOV. 30, 2005 (Zenit.org). — Whoever seeks peace and the good of the community with a pure conscience, and keeps alive the desire for the transcendent, will be saved even if he lacks biblical faith, says Benedict XVI.

The Pope made this affirmation today at the general audience, commenting on a meditation written by St. Augustine (354-430).See: Pope Benedict XVI's general audience, Nov. 30  2005.

The Popes errant philosophy is that ultimately all sincere paths lead to Jesus Christ, even though a person may be worshiping Allah in the Muslim religion, that totally rejects Jesus as the Christ and denies that God has a Son . . .

With the Apostle Peter, we confess that "there is salvation in no one else" (Acts 4:12). The DeclarationDominus Iesus, following the lead of the Second Vatican Council, shows us that this confession does not deny salvation to non-Christians, but points to its ultimate source in Christ, in whom man and God are united. God gives light to all in a way which is accommodated to their spiritual and material situation, granting them salvific grace in ways known to himself (Dominus Iesus, VI, nn. 20-21). The Document clarifies essential Christian elements, which do not hinder dialogue but show its bases, because a dialogue without foundations would be destined to degenerate into empty wordiness.

Source: POPE'S WORDS BEFORE THE "ANGELUS", VATICAN CITY, OCT. 1, 2000

What you just read is pure New Age teaching, that is, that there are many paths to God and no one religion is correct. Buddhism, the Bahá'í faith and New Agers like Oprah Winfrey all teach that there are many paths to then light and sincerity is all that really matters. Just as in Proverb 16:25, we read the exact same Scripture in Proverb 14:12, “There is a way which seemeth right unto a man, but the end thereof are the ways of death.”

The Bible strongly disagrees with Catholicism. 

Proverb 16:25, “There is a way that seemeth right unto a man, but the end thereof are the ways of death.” 

Apart from the name of Jesus Christ there is NO SALVATION! 

John 14:6, “Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.”

Acts 4:10-12 also confirms this Biblical truth that there can be no salvation apart from faith in Christ...

“Be it known unto you all, and to all the people of Israel, that by the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, whom ye crucified, whom God raised from the dead, even by him doth this man stand here before you whole. This is the stone which was set at nought of you builders, which is become the head of the corner. Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved.” (Acts 4:10-12)

   The Bible teaches that all men have a chance to be saved. Titus 2:11: “For the grace of God that bringeth salvation hath appeared to all men.” God gives every person some light (truth). if that person receives that truth, then God send them more truth. However, if a man rejects the enlightenment that God gives to him, then God is not obligated to send him more truth.

Romans 1:20 teaches that nature itself manifests His eternal power and Godhead, so that all men are without excuse. Read it for yourself in Romans 1:20, “For the invisible things of him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even his eternal power and Godhead; so that they are without excuse.”

Pope John Paul II also taught the same lie of Satan, that is, that faith in Jesus Christ is not necessary for salvation . . .

Pope John Paul II again said . . .

3. The Holy Spirit is not only present in other religions through authentic expressions of prayer. “The Spirit’s presence and activity”, as I wrote in the Encyclical Letter Redemptoris missio, “affect not only individuals but also society and history, peoples, cultures and religions” (n. 28).
Normally, “it will be in the sincere practice of what is good in their own religious traditions and by following the dictates of their own conscience that the members of other religions respond positively to God’s invitation and receive salvation in Jesus Christ, even while they do not recognize or acknowledge him as their Saviour (cf. Ad gentes, nn. 3, 9, 11)” (Pontifical Council for Interreligious Dialogue – Congregation for the Evangelization of Peoples, Instruction Dialogue and Proclamation, 19 May 1991, n. 29; L’Osservatore Romano English edition, 1 July 1991, p. III).
Source: Pope John Paul II, General Audience, Wednesday 9 September 1998

 Pope Paul VI taught the same lie of Satan . . .

16. ... Those also can attain to salvation who through no fault of their own do not know the Gospel of Christ or His Church, yet sincerely seek God and moved by grace strive by their deeds to do His will as it is known to them through the dictates of conscience.(19*) Nor does Divine Providence deny the helps necessary for salvation to those who, without blame on their part, have not yet arrived at an explicit knowledge of God and with His grace strive to live a good life.
(19*) Cfr. Epist. S.S.C.S. Officii ad Archiep. Boston.: Denz. 3869-72.Source: Lumen Gentium, (DOGMATIC CONSTITUTION ON THE CHURCH), Pope Paul VI, November 21, 1964, section 16.

Oh listen my friend, God means what He says, warns and promises in the Bible....

2nd Thessalonians 1:8-10, “In flaming fire taking vengeance on them that know not God, and that obey not the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ: Who shall be punished with everlasting destruction from the presence of the Lord, and from the glory of his power; When he shall come to be glorified in his saints, and to be admired in all them that believe (because our testimony among you was believed) in that day.”

Who are the Catholic popes to go against the Bible and teach that “non-Christians” can go to Heaven without being born-again? Jesus said, YE MUST BE BORN AGAIN (John 3:5-7). It's not an option. Only by faith in the Seed of God's Word concerning the gospel can any man be born anew of the Spirit of God. We are SINNERS and Jesus is the SAVIOR. 

Romans 1:16, “For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek.”

2nd Timothy 3:5 warns of false prophets who have a form of godliness, but deny the power of the gospel of Jesus Christ. This is EXACTLY what all the popes have done by teaching that Christ-rejecters can go to Heaven. Catholicism is a prisonhouse of religion, a cesspool of iniquity.



The Vatican Contradicts itself Totally

This is a very interesting situation, where the Vatican is proclaiming itself to be the one true church of Christ, and that all non-Roman Catholic denominations “suffer from defects” and “are not Churches in the proper sense,” and other religions “are in a gravely deficient situation”; while at the same time they are denying that faith in Jesus Christ is necessary to salvation, teaching Christ-rejecters and non-Catholics can still get to Heaven without any Biblical faith. So which is it? As you can clearly see, the Catholic Church even CONTRADICTS THEMSELVES doctrinally. They can't even stay on the same page with each other.

In sharp contrast to the Catholic prisonhouse of religion, the Word of God states:

John 3:16, “For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.”
John 3:17, “For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved.”
John 3:18, “He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.”
John 8:24, “I said therefore unto you, that ye shall die in your sins: for if ye believe not that I am he, ye shall die in your sins.”

Jesus Himself says in the Bible says that non-Christians cannot be saved unless they BELIEVE, but the Pope says they can be saved without any faith.

Who shall we believe? Jesus or the Pope?

1st John 2:22, “Who is a liar but he that denieth that Jesus is the Christ? He is antichrist, that denieth the Father and the Son.”
1st John 2:23, “Whosoever denieth the Son, the same hath not the Father: (but) he that acknowledgeth the Son hath the Father also.”

The Bible teaches that liars and antichrists deny the Lord Jesus Christ. The Pope is a liar and an anti-christ, teaching damnable heresies and lies from the Devil.

If Jesus is a Pretender (An Atheist Problem)

Jesus and his disciples went on to the villages around Caesarea Philippi. On the way he asked them, "Who do people say I am?"

If we are to asked an Atheist the answers would vary from calling Jesus as a lunatic, a pretender, and a myth. Probably there would be those who will consider him as a somewhat Gandhi type hero but not what He claims to be--as the Son of God. Yes, to some Jesus is just a Good Moral Teacher but NEVER a God.

  Let us see if the above view against the personal character, history, and existence of Jesus had any basis at all.

   If Jesus is NOT the Messiah or the Prophesied Christ from the Old Testament, then this will proved many things: First, Christianity is just a futile and meaningless religion. Next, there is a possibility that there is probably no God at all  or maybe other faith is Real.

   

   Jesus claims that the prophets had wrote about Him before he came into this world in human form. (John 8:58)

   

Probability Test

   There are about 300 prophesy from the Old Testament (OT) regarding the coming Savior of Israel. About 50% of these future events are beyond the control of His follower if they had "invented a conspiracy" regarding His establishment of Jesus Sect. Sorry, I am getting ahead of the story.     

   Did you know that the odds of your being injured by a lightning strike on any given day are only 1 in 250 million. Now, what are the chance that a baby born from Bethlehem 2000 years ago could be the Messiah.

   Let us examined the baby's birthplace. Jesus was born in Bethlehem...so what specific verse tell us that?  

“But you, Bethlehem Ephrathah,    though you are small among the clans of Judah, out of you will come for me    one who will be ruler over Israel, whose origins are from of old,    from ancient times.”--Micah 5:2

   Check! Well, from Ancient times does not seem to fit just an ordinary human savior we are talking here. Micah is not telling here another Moses or David. He is specifically describing a pre-existing being here. And yet, he is also telling that this person will come from the lineage of Judah. Gospel writer like Matthew and John painstakingly trace the bloodline to prove their claim. Another check!

   In 1012 B.C. David wrote this in Psalm 22

  

¹⁶ Dogs surround me,    a pack of villains encircles me;    they pierce my hands and my feet. ¹⁷ All my bones are on display;    people stare and gloat over me. ¹⁸ They divide my clothes among them    and cast lots for my garment.

   That was 800 years to the future before the Romans adopted the extreme penalty of crucifixion. The 12 apostle could plot Jesus suicide but not the above specific prophesy. They would need the cooperation of the Roman Government to act the scene. Invent an execution around 200 years in effect before this was applied to the intended fake person. They would need a director who will survive more or less 1000 years to make this play work from first shooting day to end. Would make another problem when you will need the help of your own oppressor who do not consider YHWH as their God.

   The Jesus sect would have to ask the help also of non-Christian and even non-Jewish historian to write the fake events. 

    The first-century Roman Tacitus, who is considered one of the more accurate historians of the ancient world, mentioned superstitious “Christians” (from Christus, which is Latin for Christ), who suffered under Pontius Pilate during the reign of Tiberius. Suetonius, chief secretary to Emperor Hadrian, wrote that there was a man named Chrestus (or Christ) who lived during the first century (Annals 15.44). Also read Tacitus on Christ 

        Julius Africanus quotes the historian Thallus in a discussion of the darkness which followed the crucifixion of Christ (Extant Writings, 18).

   These was also described by the Gospel writers what happen that day. So the plotters was also able to influence the timing of a solar eclipse. 

 And it was about the sixth hour, and there was a darkness over all the earth until the ninth hour. And the sun was darkened, and the veil of the temple was rent in the midst. -- Luke 23:24-25 (see also Matthew 27 and Mark 15) 

     From the OT there's a prophesy (circa 750 BCE) about this event also in Amos 8:9...  

    On that day, says the Lord God, I will make the sun go down at noon, and darken the earth in broad daylight.

    Malachi 3:1, was written in about 425 B.C., specified that the Messiah would be contemporary with the temple in Jerusalem--a temple that was destroyed in 70 A.D. and has never been rebuilt. 

   Maybe you can call this writing from Zechariah in chapter 11(500 years before Jesus was born) as coincidence to what Matthew recorded in 27:3-10 w 

11 And it was broken in that day: and so the poor of the flock that waited upon me knew that it was the word of the LORD.
12 And I said unto them, If ye think good, give me my price; and if not, forbear. So they weighed for my price thirty pieces of silver.
13 And the LORD said unto me, Cast it unto the potter: a goodly price that I was prised at of them. And I took the thirty pieces of silver, and cast them to the potter in the house of the LORD.--Zechariah 11:11-13

Now let us see what really are the ODDS?

   A number of years ago, Peter W. Stoner and Robert C. Newman wrote a book entitled Science Speaks. The book was based on the science of probability and vouched for by the American Scientific Affiliation. It set out the odds of any one man in all of history fulfilling even only eight of the 60 major prophecies (and 270 ramifications) fulfilled by the life of Christ.

The probability that Jesus of Nazareth could have fulfilled even eight such prophecies would be only 1 in 10¹⁷. That's 1 in 100, 000, 000, 000, 000, 000.

   Stoner claims that that many silver dollars would be enough to cover the face of the entire state of Texas two feet deep. Who in his right mind would suppose that a blindfolded man, heading out of Dallas by foot in any direction, would be able, on his very first attempt, to pick up one specifically marked silver dollar out of 100, 000, 000, 000, 000, 000?

More prophesy fulfilled shall be discuss on future blog if God allow...

That is why I don't have enough faith to be an Atheist.

   

The Jehovah’s Witnesses Sales Talk

I was in the middle of my painting session when two respectful looking women appeared at my door. The window was wide open from where I was working and they are already beaming with a smile from our house veranda. So the house can’t pretend that it was empty. So I let them in.

   I know the Standard Procedure, after the greetings and some pleasantries with little introduction (Take Note: They don’t introduce themselves as member of Jehovah’s Witness right away) they’ll ask you if you have a Bible.

   So I show them my collections of Bible. These do not scare or deter them and proceed with the campaign. I pick The New King James Version.  They asked me to read Psalm 83:18

That men may know that thou, whose name alone is JEHOVAH, art the most high over all the earth.

   “Oh ! Wow, so God’s name really is Jehovah.” There it is written in my own Bible. That would have been my reactions if I was not aware of the marketing strategy.

   But I stay calm, I told my self that the last thing I needed that day is to engage in a discussion because I am so deep in my painting and I don’t want to lose the inspiration. I’m sure it will turn into an argument if I told them…what I know. So I pretend I was grasping their preaching and bear the acquired Salesmanship.

   When they left, the Holy Spirit nagged me why didn’t you tell them the truth?  So what are the truths really?    

   The truth is these beautiful and sincere ladies are being used to propagate a BIG LIE without them being aware.

THE SALES REP TRAINING

   We Born-Again Christian also apply the same strategy when trying to convince non-believers. We also quote John 3:3

In reply Jesus declared, "I tell you the truth, no one can see the kingdom of God unless he is born again."

   But being a Christian does not end in just being Born Again as well as Salvation coming from calling God in His Proper Name (as JW claimed).

   LIE number one: Jehovah’s Witness were told that the proper name of God is Jehovah. LIE number Two: That God will only listen to prayers if you call Him as Jehovah.

THE IMPOSSIBLE NAME

   First of all, how can that be? The original Hebrew language does not have the J sound. The Hebrew “y” (yod) ended up being pronounced like a “j” in English due to the linguistic influence of French on Middle English (AD 1100–1500) in the centuries following the Norman invasion of Britain.

   In fact, the verse they asked me to read renders the name JEHOVAH as all capital. This is because it was a transliteration from the Hebrew word. Jewish thinks the Name was so HOLY it can not be utter (Remember do not use the Name of God in vain?) so when they are communicating they use the word Adonai which also mean LORD. What JW  did was make this two words as parallel. They change all the Adonai as Jehovah which was intended to be LORD. Adonai is different also when it is written as Lord. Lord is someone like a master, leader, or teacher.

   But the issue is God was not so self-centered that He demands to be called with Politically Correct Name.

  In truth GOD had many names. When Moses asked what name will I say to the Israelite when they ask me who sent me?

"At the burning bush Moses says to God: "When I come to the Israelites and say to them, the God of your fathers has sent me to you, and they ask me, What is His Name?; what shall I say to them?" God answered: "Ehyeh-asher-ehyeh." Thus you shall say to the Israelites, "Ehyeh sent me to you." 

The three-word name God gives Himself is not easy to translate. The most precise rendering is 'I shall be what I shall be', although it sometimes is translated as 'I am that I am'. The 1962 Jewish Publication Society translation of the Torah despaired of coming up with an accurate rendition, and just left the words in their Hebrew original" (Jewish Literacy, pp. 47-48).

   As this relates to the sacred names of God, there is absolutly no way with perfect certainty, that we can say how God's names were anciently pronounced. At the dispersion of the nations at the tower of Babel, and the instant creation by God of multiple languages, there had to come into existence at the same time different words to describe the same God.  

   The idea that there exist one single pronunciation for the name(s) of God is just absolutely false.  The idea that the name(s) of God must be spoken in the Paleo-Hebrew or in the Babylonian Aramaic tongue, for it (or them) to be holy and sacred is also false.  

   The original language of Adam was different than the Ugaritic language of Abraham. The Ugaritic language of Abraham was different than the Egyptian language of Moses and the Israelites in Egypt. The Phoenician language adopted by the Israelites 600 years after they came into the promised land is not the language of Adam, Abraham, or that of Moses.  And finally, although there is a great affinity of Paleo-Hebrew to Aramaic, these are different languages.

  

   What Jehovah’s Witnesses want us to believe was an invented term. Was it really important that we call Him in his proper name? How about calling him also as Jealous?

 Do not worship any other god, for the LORD, whose name is Jealous, is a jealous God.--Exodus 34:14

   We can read mostly how Ancient Israelite address God as The God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. Perhaps the recital was used by Ancient people to be sure they are calling the right God. This is like a catch-all phrase and the safest address we can give to God because Hebrew themselves are not sure what to call Him.

FATHER

   Jesus therefore knowing the problem how people are being confused on how to call God, he set the record straight for us when he was asked how to pray. Jesus replied, "Our father, who are in heaven..."

   I am sure JW can still find ways to twist and turn their reasoning; so let us just accept that invented name is true (even if not) and agree just for once that JEHOVAH is really God's true name.

   But as a Christian, who consider myself as son of God...feel uncomfortable in doing that. Why? My father's name is Ferminiano Ymas, should I say this to him, "Ferminiano can you give me money please?" 

    Isn't that what we call Bastos (rude) in Filipino? It is just proper that I call him Tatay (father). So if you are a Christian and therefore a child of God, isn't it more polite to call him "Father"? 

   

   

 Charles Taze Russell is the founder of Jehovah's Witness in 1874. The photos below is his gravestone. Does it look familiar? 

Next is the close-up inscription... 

Russell was a 33rd degree occult Freemason, which is easily verifiable. So was Joseph Smith who founded the Mormons, and Ron Hubbard who founded Scientology.

Comet Elenin

The following is something I just caught during my research...still need to verify the issue and can't comment yet. I'm not sure if this is connected to the end time event as mentioned in Revelations of our Lord Jesus Christ but what I do know is that we must be prepared and informed.
   I believed the purpose of a prophesy is to warn us, believers or non-believers, so that we can trust to our LORD. 

Could the appearance of Elenin represent the 2nd fulfillment of Revelation 12:1-5. On September 29th the stars, moon, planets and comet Elenin are to be arrayed in the sky as John saw in Rev 12:1-5. In fact, with the exception of Elenin, the same configuration was in the sky when it is thought that Jesus was born.

• Elenin crosses the earth orbit line and is closest to the Earth on Oct. 16, 2011 - during the Feast of Tabernacles. 
• By Nov. 5th, Earth will begin passing through the debris field left behind Elenin and presumably create quite a light show.
• Another alignment occurs on Nov. 23, 2011.
• The last alignments will occur on June 21, 2012 and Dec. 21, 2012.

¹ A great sign appeared in heaven: a woman clothed with the sun, with the moon under her feet and a crown of twelve stars on her head. ² She was pregnant and cried out in pain as she was about to give birth. ³ Then another sign appeared in heaven: an enormous red dragon with seven heads and ten horns and seven crowns on its heads. ⁴ Its tail swept a third of the stars out of the sky and flung them to the earth. The dragon stood in front of the woman who was about to give birth, so that it might devour her child the moment he was born. ⁵ She gave birth to a son, a male child, who “will rule all the nations with an iron scepter.”^[a] And her child was snatched up to God and to his throne. -- Revelations 12

A Quick History of Jerusalem

Jesus blood discovered

   If true, what Ron Wyatt had just stated on this video...this is something that we Christians should celebrate and rejoice. I just have little problem with it because all of this was just words...

   This discovery makes me excited and joyous BUT knowing my inquisitive mind, I feel there should be more to this than Mr. Ron Wyatt's touching speech...maybe an authentication letter from those who examined the blood. Is that possible? Maybe I need to hear more details.

Proof of Crossing Red Sea

It is interesting to note that the modern discipline of archaeology was originally born out of an interest in recovering history--and not just any history, but, specifically, Bible history.  Dr Randall Price notes that the word archaeology first appears in English in 1607, where it was used to refer specifically to the "knowledge" of ancient Israel from literary sources such as the Bible (1997: 25).

 Thus, from the beginning, the idea of archaeology was linked to the Bible.  It was only as archaeology shifted its focus to other lands to recover their histories that a special term had to be coined for that branch of archaeology that retained as its primary focus, the Bible; thus, "Biblical Archaeology" was born.

Above, baby Moses or Senmut, Moses or Thutmoses 2 as an adult with serpent on forehead meaning Crown Prince, Caves in Saudi Arabia near modern Al Bad called "Caves of Moses" by the local villagers.  Moses was to bring the people back to this area in Saudi Arabia or Midian.

It is interesting to note that there are actually a very rich collections of evidences that link to the Bible...therefore we can not dismiss the fact what the Bible said it is. It is obviously moot-and-academic to say that Bible stories are not myth and legends but actually Historical fact.
   Yet, surprisingly many (even those who claim they are Christians) still consider part of the Bible (if not its entirety) as legend, allegorical, and even hearsay. How many of you have read the first Book of the Bible? Genesis is perhaps one of the most controversial collections of stories. We can read here the story of creation; the original sin from the Garden of Eden; The flood that wipe almost all mankind; The parting of Red sea to enable Moses and the Israelite cross to the promise land; the compounding of languages at Babel; and much more that seems to defy logic. 
   Other theologian even famous founder of religions became lost explaining the seemingly extravagant claims of the Bible especially Genesis. Often their mistakes was trying to tie-up Scriptural texts with the more popular or current  worldviews. These mistakes continued from generations to generation.

 Archaeology makes a believer

   Now only through recent discoveries and more advance research we are now seeing the (possible) reality of all Biblical stories. 

The abundance of archaeological evidence in support of the Bible can strengthen faith, and in some cases it has greatly contributed to giving birth to belief where none existed before.
  An example of physical evidence building one's faith is the life of Englishman William M. Ramsay (1851-1939). Born in the lap of luxury, Ramsay was dutifully raised as a nonbeliever by his atheist parents. He graduated from Oxford University with a doctorate in philosophy and became a professor at the University of Aberdeen.
   Determined to undermine the historical accuracy of the Bible, he studied archaeology with the aim of disproving the biblical account. Once ready with the necessary scientific tools and learning, he traveled to Palestine and focused on the book of Acts, which he fully expected to refute as nothing more than myth.
  After a quarter-century of work, Ramsay was awestruck by the accuracy of the book of Acts. In his quest to refute the Bible, Ramsay discovered many facts which confirmed its accuracy.
  He had to concede that Luke's account of the events and setting recorded in the narrative were exact even in the smallest detail. Far from attacking the biblical account, Ramsay produced a book, St. Paul, the Traveller and Roman Citizen, which supported it.
   Eventually, William Ramsay shook the intellectual world by writing that he had converted to Christianity. Ironically, this man who set out to refute the Bible, found himself accepting the Bible as God's Word because of his explorations and discoveries.

   If you are still not convince, try discovering the same discovery William Ramsay saw...watch this video.

Why people doubt the reliability of the Bible's history is the impression that 

archaeological research as disproven biblical history (the patriarchal period, the Exodus, Jericho, etc.) This leaves the impression that some positive evidence has been found ...that has conclusively shown the Bible to be wrong on some historical point.  However, such evidence is much less available and unequivocal than people realize.  Indeed, the preeminent Israeli archaeologist Yigael Yadin is said to have made the comment that in over 50 years of archaeological research he had not seen anything that contradicted the basic historicity of the Bible...
