PRAISE THE LORD GOD.
–J.B.–

Marriage is honourable in all, and the bed undefiled:
but whoremongers and adulterers God will judge.
–Hebrews 13:4 (KJV)–

It’s easier not to be wise
And measure these things by your brains
I sank into Eden with you
Alone in the church by and by
I’ll read to you here, save your eyes
You’ll need them, your boat is at sea
Your anchor is up, you’ve been swept away
And the greatest of teachers won’t hesitate
To leave you there, by yourself, chained to fate

I alone love you, I alone tempt you
I alone love you, fear is not the end of this
I alone love you, I alone tempt you
I alone love you

It’s easier not to be great
And measure these things by your eyes
We long to be here by his resolve
Alone in the church by and by
To cradle the baby in space
And leave you there by yourself chained to fate, yeah

I alone love you, I alone tempt you
I alone love you, fear is not the end of this
I alone love you, I alone tempt you
I alone love you, yeah
(I alone love you, I alone tempt you)
I alone love you, yeah

Oh, now, we took it back too far
Only love can save us now
All these riddles that you burn
All come runnin’ back to you
All these rhythms that you hide
Only love can save us now
All these riddles that you burn
Yeah, yeah, yeah

I alone love you, I alone tempt you
I alone love you, fear is not the end of this
I alone love you, I alone tempt you
I alone love you, yeah

I can’t write off every single thing that Kim Clement ever saw or said, but I can definitely say that delivering prophetic words about stock market tips is not a very wise idea. While its true that Jesus saw a vision of a coin in a fish’s mouth (Matthew 17:27), there is no Biblical support for prophesying about investment tips, which borders on reducing the Holy Spirit to an inside trader–which is a felony in the United States, because it gives traders an unfair advantage. –J.B.

She calls me Goliath and I wear the David mask
I guess the stones are comin’ too fast for her now
You know I’d like to believe this nervousness will pass
All the stones that are thrown are building up a wall

I have become cumbersome
To this world
I have become cumbersome
To my girl

I’d like to believe we could reconcile the past
Resurrect those bridges with an ancient glance
But my old stone face can’t seem to break her down
She remembers bridges, burns ’em to the ground

I have become cumbersome
To this world
I have become cumbersome
To my girl

Too heavy, too light, too black or too white, too wrong or too right
Today or tonight, cumbersome
Too rich or too poor, she’s wanting me less and I’m wanting her more
The bitter taste is cumbersome
No, yeah, no-no, no
No-no, no, yeah

There is a balance between two worlds
One with an arrow and a cross
Regardless of the balance life has become
Cumbersome

Too heavy, too light, too black or too white, too wrong or too right
Today or tonight, cumbersome
Too rich or too poor, she’s wanting me less and I’m wanting her more
The bitter taste is cumbersome

No, yeah, no, no, no
No-no, no, yeah
No-no, no, no, yeah
Your life has become cumbersome

THERE IS NEITHER JEW NOR GREEK…

Spencer Perkins and Chris Rice, More Than Equals: Racial Healing for the Sake of the Gospel (InterVarsity Press, 2000). They were pastors in the Mennonite Central Committee (MCC) in the 1990s when it was firmly against gay marriage. Since then, it has drifted to a more liberal position on the LGBT issue. For this reason, I wouldn’t recommend getting involved with that denomination.

Josephus, Antiquities 2.10. “While Moses was uneasy at the army’s lying idle, (for the enemies durst not come to a battel,) this accident happened; Tharbis was the daughter of the King of the Ethiopians: she happened to see Moses, as he led the army near to the walls, and fought with great courage: and admiring the subtilty of his undertakings, and believing him to be the author of the Egyptian success, when they had before despaired of recovering their liberty; and to be the occasion of the great danger the Ethiopians were in, when they had before boasted of their great achievements, she fell deeply in love with him: and upon the prevalency of that passion, sent to him the most faithful of all her servants to discourse with him upon their marriage. He thereupon accepted the offer, on condition she would procure the delivering up of the city; and gave her the assurance of an oath to take her to his wife: and that when he had once taken possession of the city he would not break his oath to her. No sooner was the agreement made, but it took effect immediately: and when Moses had cut off the Ethiopians, he gave thanks to God, and consummated his marriage, and led the Egyptians back to their own land.” This should end the debate and confusion of Bible commentaries on Numbers 12:1. Moses apparently had more than one wife during the Exodus unlike it plays out in the film The Ten Commandments. He had married Tharbis, a black woman, an Ethiopian princess, who had become attracted to Moses during his war against her father. He had married her long before the ten plagues of Egypt happened. The fact that Miriam was punished by God with leprosy, a horrific skin disease, in Numbers 12:10 suggests to me that a skin-based racial mindset was at the bottom of why she began to “talk against Moses because of his Cushite wife” (v. 1).

Russia claimed to be the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics, and so Russia really was a socialist republic. That is, communism is socialism. There is no real difference. One avowedly takes the way of terrorism and murder and anarchy, while the other seeks the same end by infiltration, propaganda, creeping socialism. So communism and Karl Marx’s socialism are really out-and-out enemies of the Bible.
–Dr. John R. Rice, False Doctrines Answered, p. 379–

We stand for organized terror–
this should be frankly admitted.
Terror is an absolute necessity
during times of revolution.

U.S. Department of State, “2024 Country Reports on Human Rights Practices: Saudi Arabia.” There were no significant changes in the human rights situation in Saudi Arabia during the year. Significant human rights issues included credible reports of: arbitrary or unlawful killings; disappearances; torture and cruel, inhuman, or degrading treatment or punishment; arbitrary arrest and detention; transnational repression against individuals in another country; serious restrictions on freedom of expression and media freedom, including unjustified arrests or prosecutions of journalists and censorship; restrictions of religious freedom; and prohibiting independent trade unions or significant or systemic restrictions on workers’ freedom of association. The government did not take credible steps or action to identify and punish officials who committed human rights abuses in a verifiable way.

—. “2024 Country Reports on Human Rights Practices: United Kingdom.” The human rights situation worsened in the United Kingdom during the year. Significant human rights issues included credible reports of serious restrictions on freedom of expression, including enforcement of or threat of criminal or civil laws in order to limit expression; and crimes, violence, or threats of violence motivated by antisemitism. The government sometimes took credible steps to identify and punish officials who committed human rights abuses, but prosecution and punishment for such abuses was inconsistent.
