Jones Construction

I got behind this Construction truck it has a motto building efficiently and sustainably okay that's just not going to do it for me I mean that sounds good and everything and of course we want to be able to go on building forever I mean yeah that's important but still if I had a construction company I'd want it to be named something like Jones Construction and my motto we build stuff like there's no tomorrow cuz you know Jesus can come back at any minute and then your project won't get finished so you know get with it.

NRA

So I join the NRA. If you don't live in America you may not know what the NRA is. It's the National Rifle Association. They encourage everyone to own a gun or maybe two. You need to take lessons. And if your state allows it you should get a concealed carry license. This means you're carrying a gun around but no one can see. That way if there's a problem you can pull out your gun and shoot somebody. of course we all know there arent any real problems right? So anyway I joined the NRA. It's important for people to own guns. Otherwise you end up in some hellhole like Russia or China. And America is enough of a hell hole as it is anyway. There's really no place on this planet where you can get away from it all. Wherever there's people there's always Cain, there's always somebody there waiting to kill you. So I read this thing on the French Revolution. at one point they decided it was a good idea to kill all the rich people. After all the rich people are rich and there aren't very many of them. Well apparently in France they didn't have any guns either. So the mob went out to where the rich people lived and started going from house to house and started dragging out the people and chopping their heads off. Well they get to this one lady's house and she starts screaming and yelling and she's kicking and screaming and yelling and biting and pinching and scratching and they drag her kicking and screaming and yelling and biting and pinching all the way down to the guillotine and they chop her head off and she's spitting and screaming and scratching. now the people before this just calmly came out of their houses and walked up to the guillotine and stuck their neck down there and got their head chopped off. But not this one woman she went nuts. So then they go to the next house and this person comes out and they chop their head off and then they go to the next house and they say to themselves well that one woman she sort of took it out of us. So they give up. Look at Stalin he lined up 15 million farmers and slaughtered them with machine guns. If they had had some hunting rifles they could have reached out to like 1,200 yards maybe those machine guns would have just packed it in and gone on home. Looking at hitler he rounded up the Jews. He slaughtered 6 million of them. If they had some guns it would have been a different story.  everyone in Switzerland is issued a military firearm. They keep it at home with some bullets. If Invaders come they will shoot at the Invaders. you rarely if ever hear about them shooting at each other. They are orderly they understand the importance protecting yourself and your country. yeah I suppose if you don't have a gun you can do the suicide charge with a kitchen knife. It's a nice symbolic gesture. And Jesus might respect a little bit for it. and if you have a rifle they're probably going to blow you up with a smart bomb anyway. but still you went down fighting. Jesus says love your enemies and that is important Jesus also told disciples make sure you take a couple of swords




Greeley

 So I've been driving up to Greeley on the weekends lately. It's a nice little Drive the roads easy it's flat not too much traffic you know stuff like that. There's lots of fast food places along the way there's lots of gas stations and there's a couple of do-it-yourself car washes that I like. It's been kind of a weekend thing. There's this Mexican food place thut I've been frequenting. I get a great chili relleno. They fix it a bunch of different ways. You can get it with or without meat. And you can get it cheap or more expensive you know like for lunch or for a whole meal. The large drink is really huge and the whole thing is not too expensive. So after a drive up there and washing the car and having lunch I'm driving around I may be visiting a few local stores then it's time to go home. There's enough small roads that you can either take back roads or you can take the highway. Either way is nice you know just getting out of the city all the rats we're all packed in the city there's a rhythm to the city stomp on the gas put on your blinker and merge left no matter who's over there they better get out of your way unless of course it's a semi. You know the drill. Drive fast watch traffic five or six cars ahead. If you're on a slight downhill slope watch the traffic up to a half a mile ahead. See what's going on. No brake lights hit the gas brake lights Coast. In the City it stinks. It's the same people in the city and in the country. it's just what the city does to you too many rats all of us packed in. Get out in the country and we mysteriously turn back into human beings. There's a message there.




Anthony

 Anthony is my car guy if there's any problem with my car I take it to Anthony. If Anthony says there's a problem we fix it if Anthony says keep driving it we drive it Anthony's the kind of guy who tells you to fix stuff that needs fixing and ignore everything else. Earlier this year was the most expensive trip in to Anthony there's ever been. It was about 18 hundred bucks. There was a bunch of little stuff wrong it wasn't like the engine failed or the transmission failed or the drivetrain failed or the all-wheel drive failed it's nothing like that it's just a bunch of little stuff some suspension parts needed to be replaced and a thermostat housing had cracked I think there was some sort of cold air sensor but had to be replaced on one side of the exhaust manifold you know just a bunch of little junk and when you drive a 12 year old car made in America that's pretty much what you expect. Now if you get a Toyota or maybe a Honda expect to do that kind of stuff when you get to about 200,000 miles but on American cars you can pretty much expect to do that kind of stuff at somewhere between a hundred and a hundred and fifty thousand miles. American cars are a little cheaper and you fix them more often. So this car pulls a little bit to the right. Anthony has one of his guys take it for a test drive he comes back and he says it pulls to the right. Anthony got that sort of irritated look on his face like yeah it pulls to the right but not very much. Anthony says yeah you can bring it in sometime if you but there was a little sigh at the end that was the real message. the real message was get behind the wheel and drive this thing and quit griping. So that's what we've been doing there's a rattle in the front end there's a squeak in the rear trunk lid. Guess what it's not going to change the world nothing's depending on it you can drive the car 85 you can drive the car 20 it's safe either way just keep driving.

Five spiritual forces

There are five spiritual forces that control the major activities of the nations. The nations are geographically colocated people. If there were no people there would be no nations. These spiritual forces are most likely operating out of the heavenly city Babylon.

The forces are listed here in order of importance as I see fit.


  • Religion - currently being trampled by governments. 
  • Government - world governments are currently playing god. See 1rst Samuel 8
  • Economy - this fuels all the other forces activities. 
  • Education - our ability to continually modify our learning process makes us unique as an animal. 
  • Medical - this one is only last because when you aren't sick you ignore it. Also, no amount of medical attention can keep you alive longer than God specifies. 


In America the last two are currently out of financial control.


I Samuel 8
4] Then all the elders of Israel gathered themselves together, and came to Samuel unto Ramah,
[5] And said unto him, Behold, thou art old, and thy sons walk not in thy ways: now make us a king to judge us like all the nations.
[6] But the thing displeased Samuel, when they said, Give us a king to judge us. And Samuel prayed unto the LORD.
[7] And the LORD said unto Samuel, Hearken unto the voice of the people in all that they say unto thee: for they have not rejected thee, but they have rejected me, that I should not reign over them.
[8] According to all the works which they have done since the day that I brought them up out of Egypt even unto this day, wherewith they have forsaken me, and served other gods, so do they also unto thee.
[9] Now therefore hearken unto their voice: howbeit yet protest solemnly unto them, and shew them the manner of the king that shall reign over them.
[10] And Samuel told all the words of the LORD unto the people that asked of him a king.
[11] And he said, This will be the manner of the king that shall reign over you: He will take your sons, and appoint them for himself, for his chariots, and to be his horsemen; and some shall run before his chariots.
[12] And he will appoint him captains over thousands, and captains over fifties; and will set them to ear his ground, and to reap his harvest, and to make his instruments of war, and instruments of his chariots.
[13] And he will take your daughters to be confectionaries, and to be cooks, and to be bakers.
[14] And he will take your fields, and your vineyards, and your oliveyards, even the best of them, and give them to his servants.
[15] And he will take the tenth of your seed, and of your vineyards, and give to his officers, and to his servants.
[16] And he will take your menservants, and your maidservants, and your goodliest young men, and your asses, and put them to his work.
[17] He will take the tenth of your sheep: and ye shall be his servants.
[18] And ye shall cry out in that day because of your king which ye shall have chosen you; and the LORD will not hear you in that day.
[19] Nevertheless the people refused to obey the voice of Samuel; and they said, Nay; but we will have a king over us;
[20] That we also may be like all the nations; and that our king may judge us, and go out before us, and fight our battles.
[21] And Samuel heard all the words of the people, and he rehearsed them in the ears of the LORD.
[22] And the LORD said to Samuel, Hearken unto their voice, and make them a king. And Samuel said unto the men of Israel, Go ye every man unto his city.





Job

I'll pray ahead of time for forgiveness because most likely I'm missing something obvious or just acting foolishly. I don't think I'm alone in the assessment that there's something very weird about the Book of Job. If I understand correctly God admits to destroying Job Without a Cause after Praising Job for not foolishly blaming God. Let's see if the text backs that up. It's always important to get key verses in context. So, here we go.

 Job 1:22 In all this Job sinned not, nor charged God foolishly. 

Job.2 [1] Again there was a day when the sons of God came to present themselves before the LORD, and Satan came also among them to present himself before the LORD. [2] And the LORD said unto Satan, From whence comest thou? And Satan answered the LORD, and said, From going to and fro in the earth, and from walking up and down in it. [3] Add the LORD said unto Satan, Hast thou considered my servant Job, that there is none like him in the earth, a perfect and an upright man, one that feareth God, and escheweth evil? and still he holdeth fast his integrity, although thou movedst me against him, to destroy him without cause.

The world

It's easy to see how one day you can be on top of the world and the next day it can be handing you your hat. Your Life Energy alone can be strong one day and trampled the next. And as age takes its toll you realize, the day you won't be here grows ever closer. The universe itself is winding down and will be recreated for an eternal Kingdom.

The squeak

Several years ago a squeak first sounded in my car. It sounded like the noise was coming from inside near the back. But after many attempts to silence the irritation it Very slowly grew only worse. There was no squeak when the car was rolling along on smooth pavement. Sometimes it squeaked often, sometimes less. Initially it required hitting a big bump to produce the sound, but over time it occurred easier and easier. Guess what it turned out to be? There was a speaker panel that had slowly worked loose and only made noise when moved in a specific way. Simply tightening the screws fixed the problem. It just took a while to find which screws.
