SO I'M TOLD VIA THE NEWS this fellow Doc Watson at 89 died....some Blue Grass singer/picker.
Well sorry but NEVER HEARD of the guy.
He got some "Life time award"
I doubt the rest of the world ever heard of him, unless into Blue-grass music.
Now two people the WHOLE world did KNOW was Slim Whitman and Connie Francis.
Now if ANYONE deserved "Lifetime awards" it's those two singers, but do they have them, never heard they have (though many other awards they have).
WHEN they die, will they make the news......thinking I doubt it very much, but such is the crazy music world of the USA. Some guy unknown out of the world of Blue-grass in the USA, gets in the news, and two people THE WORLD knew and loved will most likely not be mentioned when they die.
Only in the USA as they say.
Oh as you gather ain't into into Bluegrass, well a song or two, but after that it all sounds the same over and over and over and more over.

Love Comes Softly movies
If you want some beautiful heart-touching movies then you need to obtain the series "Love Comes Softly" from the best selling author Janette Oke and directed by Michael Landon Jr.
A family's journey of the ups and downs of life, the joys the sorrows, the triumphs, the work, the touching truths that happened to many as the new world of the West was established in North America.
They are Christian based movies, but not as perfect as could have been, i.e. prayers but no "in Jesus' name" after the prayer, and as would be expected coming from the popular Christianity you have the "Christmas" scenes.
But overlooking that, the movies are very touching, and very well acted indeed, some of the children actors are amazing. The movies are very enjoyable, so they are worth having as a series.
LOVE COMES SOFTLY volume 1 - 3 movies - (1) Love Comes Softly (2) Love's Enduring Promise (3) Love's Long Journey
LOVE COMES SOFTLY volume 2 - 3 movies - (1) Love's Abiding Joy (2) Love's Unending Legacy (3) Love's Unfolding Dream
Obtainable from "Christian Book Distributers" - just Google their name on the Internet.

Stretching for health
A friens wrote me and said as I wrote on health, but he's never seen a comment from me on S T R E T C H I N G.....................and did I do it?
My reply was INDEED I DO, AND I MUST MENTION IT ON MY BLOG.
As a teen I took the now old "Charles Atlas" Health and Strength course.
He was the first big strong man Mr.Universe, who used no weights to built his muscles and unbelievable strength. He used "dynamic tension" - pitting one muscle against another. He was nearly a fanatic on healthy food...said, "You are what you eat."
Well his course puts good emphasis on STRETCHING. He used to liken the cat that did stretching.
There are MANY stretching exercise you can do - yes make them up yourself if you want.
Now let me first say this: If you have back problems do not do them without medical opinion.
But if you are "normal" and reasonably fit - here's the ones I do:
Stand up straight and bend back as far as you can holding for a few seconds - strengthens the small of the back greatly.
Do the old "twist from side to side with hands clasped down behind you and give that extra twist.
Stand up straight arms up over your head pull to the right as you try to resist with the left arm and hand, then reverse it.
In a short while you will have a strong back.
Maybe do a search on the Internet and see if the Charles Atlas organization is still going and his course still available - it is truly great, I've still got mine.

Squats for health
Mercola.com has a full article on the benefit of "squats" in your exercise routine.
I do them as part of my warm up 10 minute time before swimming.
I take the first 10 minutes in the pool to jog and do squats.
And being a horseman, I get leg/knee strength in riding my horse from Spring to Fall.
But as Mercola.com shows doing squats has many advantages, so make sure you keep doing or start doing (if your not) squats in your exercise program.

Crazy Pakistan/People going high
You talk about some nutty country of the world and Pakistan has got to be right up there very near the top.
Some guy helped the USA verify where Bin Laden was hiding in plain sight, and the USA sent in their James Bond team and killed him. Now this fellow has been given something like 33 years prison sentence - Pakistan claiming he was a spy for the USA. Now I can understand Pakistan is angry about civilians the USA have killed in the last while, but getting back at the USA through this man that helped the USA kill Bin Laden, is the height of a crazy mind-set.
Needless to say the relationship between the USA and Pakistan has hardly been any worse than it is today. And that country is building the "A" bomb like there is no tomorrow.
Fortunately Bible prophecy tells us Pakistan will have no big role in end time prophecy.
......
Did you see the latest on people wanting to get to the top of the world on Mount Everest. Literally hundreds of them, all lined up like a literal people traffic jam. Again some people have to be loony in the head; very little oxogen up there; as cold as blazes (take that as a reverse pun), a wicked killing climate Everest can throw at you in very short notice; and people are literally lined up to get to the top. I mean, give me a break, but some people have to have a frozen mind that can not think straight, and yes some do get a literal frozen mind as they try to get to the top of Everest - they die and freeze stiff.

Big News Today
Egypt is going through its first democratic elections since its iron fisted dictator was thrown out about 1 and 1/2 years ago.
So we shall see how fast things will go for Egypt in a free society, and how that will relate to the forming of the Arab "king of the south" that will have Egypt as its leader, and fulfill the prophecy of Daniel 11:40-45. I think personally it will take at least 10 years for the "king of the south" to come on the scene, but of course it is a case of watching as Jesus said we should do, and the end time events of this age are in the hands of God the Father.

HP - the giant of computer makers is laying off thousands - it has not kept up with the modern trend of the iPads and Tablet and so must change its movement, go in other directions. Certainly the nature of the future in personal computers is the move into the world of Steve Jobs' vision for Apple, and companies like Hewlett Packard are so far behind it will be a certain death blow for them in the new personal computer world.
......
Taking CALCIUM tablets (the mega type) has now come under fire from the latest research (10 years) in tracking about 24 thousand people. The result: taking large doses of Calcium tablets has shown to have large risk in heart attacks. The reason given: the body cannot digest quick enough the large "all at once" doses of calcium, so causing built up in artery walls and hence the hardening of the arteries, which often then leads to heart attack. What they are saying to do: get more calcium from the foods you eat, or take much smaller doses of calcium supplements more times during the day.

Pentecost coming
This Sunday is the Feast of Pentecost in God's calendar.
I have MANY studies on my website about Pentecost - how to count to it and it's important meaning and history.
It is the one feast of the Lord that a good part of the "Christian" churches still observe.
Wellll.....being on a Sunday it kinda makes sense Sunday keeping churches would observe it.
Then stop and think, it is for many Christian churches a contradiction in their theology. They want to teach the Feasts of God are "done away with" or only for "Jews"..... yet many Christian churches openly observe Pentecost; I mean it is the "birthday" of the Christian church.
Ya.... there is a lot of contradiction and silly theology in the majority of the Christian churches.
So as they say....nothing new under the sun.
Two holy days coming up - weekly Sabbath and Pentecost - time to really rest, and fellowship, and time to dig into God's word and have a spiritual feast; time to pray and meditate, enjoy the outdoors if the weather is nice, and also some good meals with family and Christian brothers and sisters.

Exercise and the brain!!!
Mercola.com has a fine article that shows science has proven the great benefit of
EXERCISE on the BRAIN!
Whatever age we need to get physical exercise.
If it is only walking, but then you should walk as fast as you can.
Doing hard/fast exercise then resting; then repeating; and so on for 3/4 of an hour is better than the slow jogging type exercise that you may do for an hour or more.
Exercise and a healthy balanced diet, as organic as you can, with lots of fruits and vegetables, and 8 hours sleep, is the key to health and staying younger than your birth age.
Now it is proven that exercise is healthy for your brain.

History in the making!!
It is now official.....the birth of none white children is now more that white children in the USA.
They say by 2040 the "white" population of the USA will be a MINORITY!!
You talk about the prophecy God gave to Israel way way back, if they would not serve and obey Him. The prophecy was the "stranger that is within you shall become the head and you shall become the tail.
That prophecy is now coming to pass in the modern 21st century for the USA. The white Celtic-Anglo-Saxon will be a minority by 2040.
Now THAT is something to really think about.
Old prophecies coming to a fruition in the modern space-age of the 21st century.
......
Another wife of the most famous family in the USA commits suicide - once married to a Kennedy guy.
The Kennedy fellows had it seems a curse on them. They lived hard, women and wine, adultery, and some wild living....... well with them the saying and proverb "you reap what you sow" was truly manifest. Sorry to say but the Kennedy family was often famous for the wrong reasons.

One country and the world goes....
It seems a little hard to figure that ONE country ... Greece, could have effects on a worldwide basis.
But they are saying on the news that if Greece cannot form a Government and accept the austerity program laid down by the Europe countries to keep getting a money bailout, it means a disaster for the Euro, and Europe, and then the world as a whole.
If the talk is correct then we see how closely tied all the nations of the world are to each other.
I have a hard time getting my head around this, but the stock markets around the world are down because of the crisis in Greece and what it may do to Europe.
Now the Europe Beast power in the book of Daniel, chapter two, the toes of the image is said to be made up of iron and clay. The country of Greece is very much a clay nation.
But no matter what the outcome of Greece, Bible prophecy will march on, and that marching on is that Europe will in form be a union (though iron and clay) and will form the last Holy Roman Empire on earth. She will be a great mighty power as the end of this age comes. We are told she will rise to great power quickly and will fall just as quickly. But in-between those times she will lead the world into the 3rd and last world war.
Europe will be the Beast of Revelation and the "king of the north" of Daniel 11:40-45. She will come against the "king of the south" - (an Arab union led by Egypt) and then will enter the Holy Land. She will destroy the people of Judah and the nations of the House of Israel. This iron and clay Europe will for a few years rule the Western world.
Though she be a mixture or iron (strength) and clay (weakness) - she will fulfill the prophecies of the book of Revelation and the books of the prophets in the Old Testament.
All fully expounded on my website.
Keep your eyes on Europe. Prophecy is being fulfilled right before your eyes. One of the proofs that God exists is the proof of Bible prophecy taking place just as written in the Bible.

Date Years - some still at it
THE EDITOR of the below publication is at the "date game" once
more. It is as if he is drugged on this topic. I answer him and
another writer who has written on Daniel, in the May 2012 issue
of "Thy Kingdom Come" - Keith Hunt
From: The Association of the Covenant People
What's to happen over the coming months and years. Who knows? As
the Wycliffe Bible Commentary suggests, "Daniel was no expert on
prophetic interpretation. There will be no expert until prophecy
becomes history." This is true
......
(NO IT IS NOT TRUE!! Paul was inspired to write that the body of
Christ, the church, has not only apostles, evangelists, pastors
and teachers, but ALSO "prophets." It's recorded in the book of
Ephesians, chapter 4. The prophet today in the Church of God,
will be those who understand Bible prophecy. It will be a
spiritual gift. It is those who do not have this spiritual gift
who write and say, "There will be no expert until prophecy
becomes history." They do not have a clue about Bible prophecy
and so hence expect that no one does. Nothing could be further
from the truth of the matter. Those at the first coming of the
Messiah, some of them KNEW the time was there that the Messiah
should come, the signs (one sign being John the Baptist) were all
there; they were looking for Him whom the Scriptures said would
come. The signs of prophecy leading up to the "second" coming of
the Messiah, CAN BE KNOWN!! - Keith Hunt)
......
but Wycliffe has an interesting thing to say about Daniel
12:11-12, "This carries prophecy from the middle of the
seventieth week of Daniel 9 through the first thirty days of the
Millennium to follow, perhaps to the end of some 'mopping up'
period. This carries the prophecy sixty-five days beyond the end
of the "week." Does it reach to the full establishment of
Messiah's reign after sixty-five days of initial preliminary
work?" I must confess I don't completely understand this
(It CAN be understood! Daniel 12:10 says "the wise shall
understand. "From the time of the daily [the word "sacrifice" is
not in the Hebrew] shall be taken away." The daily I have
explained in other studies on my website; but in short, from the
time the Great Tribulation starts, will be 1290 days. It will be
1260 days of Revelation plus one month of 30 days = 3 years 7
months with 30 days to the month. Then it is blessed for him that
waits to the end of 1,335 days, which = 3 years 8 months and 15
days, with 30 days to the month. Verse 13 is the key. Daniel will
not stand [be resurrected] until "the of the dayS" - until the
end of 1,335 days. Hence the resurrection will not take place
until the end of the dayS. And the resurrection of the saints is
when Jesus Christ returns, on that very day of His return the
saints are resurrected, as I poven in other satudies on my
website. So it CAN be understood - I've just made it
understandable for you - Keith Hunt)
but the 65 days converted to years is interesting if you add it
to the abovementioned 1947, you come to 2012. And as past
articles indicated, this appears to be an important year on God's
calendar.
(NOPE! 2012 is no more important in God's calendar than 2011,
except it is one more year closer to the coming of Christ - Keith
Hunt)
Well, we are in 2012 so we will see if there is any validity in
this last thought, but remember, "There is no expert until
prophecy becomes history." (Garbage to that idea, not true at
all. Why would God give us prophecy, signs of the times, to watch
for, as Jesus said, if we could not know the signs of the times
until they became history. The Great Tribulation like no other in
history .... you'd have to be dead to not know it was on the
earth when it comes. Then follows the "day of the Lord" then the
nations gathering at Armageddon to fight the returning Christ -
all of this will be easy to see on the world scene - Keith Hunt).

From "Thy Kingdom Come" - May 2012
ANOTHER LOOK AT DANIEL
by Robert B. MacDormand
Editor's Comments: Coincidences do happen and here's one in this
issue of TKC. It appears that your editor and correspondent Rob
MacDormond both had the same thought to write on Daniel 12.
Fortunately, they take different directions so we are publishing
both viewpoints.
The book of Daniel deals with prophecies about the empires that
rose after Daniel, the coming of Jesus Christ the Messiah, and
the eventual fulfillment of end time prophecies to the great
resurrection to come. Much commentary of this has been written
already in Israel Truth publications, but it may help to
summarize some of those views and maybe add some of my own
insights. The main subject of this article is the twelfth chapter
of Daniel.
The first part of the chapter mentions a time of great trouble,
unequaled in history, when Michael the archangel would fight for
Israel. Following that, a great resurrection from the dead would
occur. This would refer to the beginning of the reign of Jesus
Christ on the planet. Starting in verse seven, the timing of
these events is given. " And I heard the man clothed in linen,
which was upon the waters of the river, when he held up his right
hand and his left hand unto heaven, and sware by him that liveth
forever that it shall be for a time, times, and an half; and when
he shall have accomplished to scatter the power of the holy
people, all these things shall be finished". Daniel 12:7. The
angel held up two hands, meaning the period was doubled. Three
and a half times doubled is seven times.
(No two hands held up does not mean it is double. There is no
Bible interpretation to suggest any such idea - it is an idea of
men. It has nothing to do with 7 times or seven years - Keith
Hunt)
A time is 360 years (complete circle). Therefore seven times is
2520 years. It has been pointed out that this period stretched
from 604 B.C. to 1917 A.D. The year 604 B.C. was probably when
the first abomination of desolation occurred in the temple at
Jerusalem, when an idol was set up in the temple and images of
heathen gods were drawn on the temple walls. (Ezekiel 8: 5-11).
(This prophecy of Daniel 12 has nothing to do with the 7 times
punishment of Judah - Keith Hunt)
The year 1917 A.D. was when the liberation of Jerusalem from
gentile domination was ac complished by Britain. According to the
angel, there would follow a period of the scattering of the power
of the holy people (Israel). This happened following the First
World War as nations in the British Empire achieved their
independence, and after the Second World War, Britain's power was
reduced even more, and the Empire became a Commonwealth. Today
Britain is regarded as just another European country, not an
empire. The United States was propelled to superpower status
following the Second World War, but is now losing its power due
to financial troubles. I believe the Third World War will bring
down our power completely.
(The scattering of the power of the holy people is at the time of
the Great Tribulation and the start of the 1260 days, or 42
months, or time, times and half a time, of the book of
Revelation. It is the time of the scattering of Israel and Judah
and the saints of God - Keith Hunt)
Daniel did not understand the prophecy, so he asked for
clarification in verse eight. In answer, the angel gave him two
time periods to consider. He said, "And from the time that the
daily sacrifice shall be taken away, and the abomination that
maketh desolate set up, there shall be a thousand two hundred and
ninety days. Blessed is he that waiteth, and cometh to the
thousand three hundred and five and thirty days". Daniel 12:
11-12. The angel had said the words would be closed up and sealed
until the time of the end (verse 9). I do not believe we are
quite there yet and I believe the full understanding of the
prophecy will come to us in the next few years.
(The wise we have seen SHALL understand; the prophets of God
shall understand, the gift of prophecy to some in the Church of
God is still in effect. The understanding of this prophecy and
all prophecy of the Bible is already understood. I have carefully
and in detail expounded for you all the prophetic books of the
Bible on my website - Keith Hunt)
However, it has been pointed out in Israel Truth literature that
the year 1917 A.D. was the same as the year 1335 in the Muslim
calendar, again drawing our attention to the liberation of
Jerusalem by the British. Much analysis of the numbers 1290 and
1335 was made in Howard Rand's book "Study in Daniel", too much
to mention in this article. However, I would like to write about
some of Rand's interpretations in a future article.
(Again the 1335 days has nothing to do with 1917. It has to do
with the time of the end, which is yet before us, and the coming
of the desolation that makes abomination. As interpreted for us
in Matthew 24 and Luke 21, it is Jerusalem with armies all around
it read to make that city desolate; which is then still to take
place, still in the yet future. That happening will be the start
of the last 1260 days or 42 months of Revelation, and the start
of the 1335 days of Daniel 12 - Keith Hunt)
How long will it be until the power of the holy people is
completely scattered? A footnote in my Bible says the Hebrew word
translated scattered actually means shattered. I thought the
U.S.A. was on the verge of attacking Iran, which could have drawn
us all into a final war in the Middle East. However, it appears
that time has not quite arrived. President Obama seems to be
totally against any such invasion. Americans are tired of Middle
East wars and want the economy fixed. Yet, no matter what any of
us want, there will not be any lasting peace until Jesus Christ
is on the throne ruling over the nations. Any plan that leaves
Him out of the picture will fail.
......
Note:
Bible prophecy has NOTHING to say about the USA attacking Iran
and so starting some end time war in the Middle-East. Iran is NOT
in any significant way going to have a major role in the last
world war. The last world war will not be started by the USA
attacking some Middle-East nation. Any such ideas are in total
error. The Bitish-Israel organizations are lacking any scholar,
have been lacking any scholar, who understands the correct
prophetic timetable for end time prophecy.
That end time prophetic timetable is fully expounded for you on
my website as I expound all the prophetic books of the Bible.
It will come to pass as I've told you - so it is written, so
shall it be. And once more the year 2012 has NO "SPECIAL"
anything about it in God's prophetoc plan, only it will be one
more year closer to the return of Christ.
Forget about trying to manipulate this year with that year, which
is put against this year, as you try to figure from a past year.
The signs of Bible prophecy are CLEAR to watch for. I've given
them to you on my website. Watching for those signs to happen
will mean the last 1260 days of Revelation will come. There are
DEFINATE world events to take palce which will bring us to the
last 42 months of this age, or as Daniel has it to the last 1335
days of this age and the return of Christ and the resurrection of
the saints.
......
more. It is as if he is drugged on this topic. I answer him and
another writer who has written on Daniel, in the May 2012 issue
of "Thy Kingdom Come" - Keith Hunt
From: The Association of the Covenant People
What's to happen over the coming months and years. Who knows? As
the Wycliffe Bible Commentary suggests, "Daniel was no expert on
prophetic interpretation. There will be no expert until prophecy
becomes history." This is true
......
(NO IT IS NOT TRUE!! Paul was inspired to write that the body of
Christ, the church, has not only apostles, evangelists, pastors
and teachers, but ALSO "prophets." It's recorded in the book of
Ephesians, chapter 4. The prophet today in the Church of God,
will be those who understand Bible prophecy. It will be a
spiritual gift. It is those who do not have this spiritual gift
who write and say, "There will be no expert until prophecy
becomes history." They do not have a clue about Bible prophecy
and so hence expect that no one does. Nothing could be further
from the truth of the matter. Those at the first coming of the
Messiah, some of them KNEW the time was there that the Messiah
should come, the signs (one sign being John the Baptist) were all
there; they were looking for Him whom the Scriptures said would
come. The signs of prophecy leading up to the "second" coming of
the Messiah, CAN BE KNOWN!! - Keith Hunt)
......
but Wycliffe has an interesting thing to say about Daniel
12:11-12, "This carries prophecy from the middle of the
seventieth week of Daniel 9 through the first thirty days of the
Millennium to follow, perhaps to the end of some 'mopping up'
period. This carries the prophecy sixty-five days beyond the end
of the "week." Does it reach to the full establishment of
Messiah's reign after sixty-five days of initial preliminary
work?" I must confess I don't completely understand this
(It CAN be understood! Daniel 12:10 says "the wise shall
understand. "From the time of the daily [the word "sacrifice" is
not in the Hebrew] shall be taken away." The daily I have
explained in other studies on my website; but in short, from the
time the Great Tribulation starts, will be 1290 days. It will be
1260 days of Revelation plus one month of 30 days = 3 years 7
months with 30 days to the month. Then it is blessed for him that
waits to the end of 1,335 days, which = 3 years 8 months and 15
days, with 30 days to the month. Verse 13 is the key. Daniel will
not stand [be resurrected] until "the of the dayS" - until the
end of 1,335 days. Hence the resurrection will not take place
until the end of the dayS. And the resurrection of the saints is
when Jesus Christ returns, on that very day of His return the
saints are resurrected, as I poven in other satudies on my
website. So it CAN be understood - I've just made it
understandable for you - Keith Hunt)
but the 65 days converted to years is interesting if you add it
to the abovementioned 1947, you come to 2012. And as past
articles indicated, this appears to be an important year on God's
calendar.
(NOPE! 2012 is no more important in God's calendar than 2011,
except it is one more year closer to the coming of Christ - Keith
Hunt)
Well, we are in 2012 so we will see if there is any validity in
this last thought, but remember, "There is no expert until
prophecy becomes history." (Garbage to that idea, not true at
all. Why would God give us prophecy, signs of the times, to watch
for, as Jesus said, if we could not know the signs of the times
until they became history. The Great Tribulation like no other in
history .... you'd have to be dead to not know it was on the
earth when it comes. Then follows the "day of the Lord" then the
nations gathering at Armageddon to fight the returning Christ -
all of this will be easy to see on the world scene - Keith Hunt).

From "Thy Kingdom Come" - May 2012
ANOTHER LOOK AT DANIEL
by Robert B. MacDormand
Editor's Comments: Coincidences do happen and here's one in this
issue of TKC. It appears that your editor and correspondent Rob
MacDormond both had the same thought to write on Daniel 12.
Fortunately, they take different directions so we are publishing
both viewpoints.
The book of Daniel deals with prophecies about the empires that
rose after Daniel, the coming of Jesus Christ the Messiah, and
the eventual fulfillment of end time prophecies to the great
resurrection to come. Much commentary of this has been written
already in Israel Truth publications, but it may help to
summarize some of those views and maybe add some of my own
insights. The main subject of this article is the twelfth chapter
of Daniel.
The first part of the chapter mentions a time of great trouble,
unequaled in history, when Michael the archangel would fight for
Israel. Following that, a great resurrection from the dead would
occur. This would refer to the beginning of the reign of Jesus
Christ on the planet. Starting in verse seven, the timing of
these events is given. " And I heard the man clothed in linen,
which was upon the waters of the river, when he held up his right
hand and his left hand unto heaven, and sware by him that liveth
forever that it shall be for a time, times, and an half; and when
he shall have accomplished to scatter the power of the holy
people, all these things shall be finished". Daniel 12:7. The
angel held up two hands, meaning the period was doubled. Three
and a half times doubled is seven times.
(No two hands held up does not mean it is double. There is no
Bible interpretation to suggest any such idea - it is an idea of
men. It has nothing to do with 7 times or seven years - Keith
Hunt)
A time is 360 years (complete circle). Therefore seven times is
2520 years. It has been pointed out that this period stretched
from 604 B.C. to 1917 A.D. The year 604 B.C. was probably when
the first abomination of desolation occurred in the temple at
Jerusalem, when an idol was set up in the temple and images of
heathen gods were drawn on the temple walls. (Ezekiel 8: 5-11).
(This prophecy of Daniel 12 has nothing to do with the 7 times
punishment of Judah - Keith Hunt)
The year 1917 A.D. was when the liberation of Jerusalem from
gentile domination was ac complished by Britain. According to the
angel, there would follow a period of the scattering of the power
of the holy people (Israel). This happened following the First
World War as nations in the British Empire achieved their
independence, and after the Second World War, Britain's power was
reduced even more, and the Empire became a Commonwealth. Today
Britain is regarded as just another European country, not an
empire. The United States was propelled to superpower status
following the Second World War, but is now losing its power due
to financial troubles. I believe the Third World War will bring
down our power completely.
(The scattering of the power of the holy people is at the time of
the Great Tribulation and the start of the 1260 days, or 42
months, or time, times and half a time, of the book of
Revelation. It is the time of the scattering of Israel and Judah
and the saints of God - Keith Hunt)
Daniel did not understand the prophecy, so he asked for
clarification in verse eight. In answer, the angel gave him two
time periods to consider. He said, "And from the time that the
daily sacrifice shall be taken away, and the abomination that
maketh desolate set up, there shall be a thousand two hundred and
ninety days. Blessed is he that waiteth, and cometh to the
thousand three hundred and five and thirty days". Daniel 12:
11-12. The angel had said the words would be closed up and sealed
until the time of the end (verse 9). I do not believe we are
quite there yet and I believe the full understanding of the
prophecy will come to us in the next few years.
(The wise we have seen SHALL understand; the prophets of God
shall understand, the gift of prophecy to some in the Church of
God is still in effect. The understanding of this prophecy and
all prophecy of the Bible is already understood. I have carefully
and in detail expounded for you all the prophetic books of the
Bible on my website - Keith Hunt)
However, it has been pointed out in Israel Truth literature that
the year 1917 A.D. was the same as the year 1335 in the Muslim
calendar, again drawing our attention to the liberation of
Jerusalem by the British. Much analysis of the numbers 1290 and
1335 was made in Howard Rand's book "Study in Daniel", too much
to mention in this article. However, I would like to write about
some of Rand's interpretations in a future article.
(Again the 1335 days has nothing to do with 1917. It has to do
with the time of the end, which is yet before us, and the coming
of the desolation that makes abomination. As interpreted for us
in Matthew 24 and Luke 21, it is Jerusalem with armies all around
it read to make that city desolate; which is then still to take
place, still in the yet future. That happening will be the start
of the last 1260 days or 42 months of Revelation, and the start
of the 1335 days of Daniel 12 - Keith Hunt)
How long will it be until the power of the holy people is
completely scattered? A footnote in my Bible says the Hebrew word
translated scattered actually means shattered. I thought the
U.S.A. was on the verge of attacking Iran, which could have drawn
us all into a final war in the Middle East. However, it appears
that time has not quite arrived. President Obama seems to be
totally against any such invasion. Americans are tired of Middle
East wars and want the economy fixed. Yet, no matter what any of
us want, there will not be any lasting peace until Jesus Christ
is on the throne ruling over the nations. Any plan that leaves
Him out of the picture will fail.

It's Coming/Marathon Mess/Power Workouts
By now I guess everyone knows of President Obama's now change of mind and agreement with "same sex marriage."
At present the USA is split about 50/50 on the issue.
The younger generation though is predominately FOR "same sex marriage" being fully recognized as "one man one woman" marriages.
I've told you before that it will eventually come into the USA law books - same sex marriage. It is one step closer.
For those who take the Bible seriously (which Obama does not) the answer for Homosexuals and Lesbians is as clear as the sun in a cloudless day. Practicing same sex relations is a sin, and does carry the eternal death penalty, if not repented of practicing. It is among a list of specific sins mentioned in the Bible, along with drunkenness, fornication (sex before marriage) and adultery, and others.
As Jesus said in Matthew 24, before He returns "evil shall abound, and the love of many wax cold." Evil is ever abounding, and people with the true love of God (look in 1 John for the Bible definition of what is the love of God) is waxing cold.
......
Mercola.com (one of the modern "health" experts) today (the 11th of May) spoke about the truth of "workouts" - workout fast and energetic for a minute or so and rest, and do this for 1/2 to 3/4 of an hour. Much better for you than 3/4 hour just slowly pacing yourself. He goes into the technical details.
That is exactly what I do when I swim at the pool - jog in the water for 10 minutes - then swim as fast as I can for one lap down the pool - rest, then swim back as fast as I can. As the 3/4 of an hour moves along I also do some body stretching and some of the old Charles Atlas "dynamic tension" exercises, then rest, and swim again fast.
I understand fully what Mercola is teaching his readers, and fully agree.
Another point Mercola brought out today was this "marathon" running stuff - people die doing it. He has the technical details on it all. But I have thought for a while now that running 26 miles at one time was never intended by the Lord for humans to do; He gave us horses to help us move over such distances until we invented the bike and car.
Nobody thought of running 26 miles in one stretch until the Greek guy did it to get more men from Athens so the Greek army would not be defeated in the battle they were in. He was sent on a special situation task, get to Athens for more help. And Athens was 26 miles away. It was the situation of a battle that called for his heroic feat. It was never meant to say to the world we should have a 26 mile run in our athletic games and competitions.

Kentucky Derby winner
So the winner of the Kentucky Derby has an all Canadian connection from owner to trainer to Jockey - I'll Have Another - came from behind to win.
Secretariat time of 1.59.40 minutes still stands as the faster ever time for the Derby.
This years winner was 2.1 and something, not even close to Secretariat, with perfect conditions.
BUT the WORLD record for a 1 and 1/4 mile race (as the Derby is) goes to another horse out California way, who did the distance in 1.57 and something, so even the great Secretariat was not close to that horse.
You can find all the facts by typing in your search engine "Thoroughbred World Records."
But Secretariat does still holds 3rd race of the Triple Crown record for the 1 and 1/2 miles, on that particular race track. He was the kind of horse that got faster with distance. As they say "just ate up the track" the further he had to go.
BUT again the WORLD record goes to another horse for the 1 and 1/2 miles, out California way, who went even faster than the Sec. horse ran it..... wow that's incredible.

GOOD on Jan Brewer of Arizona
The Governor of Arizona Jan Brewer has signed into law that no State tax-dollar will fund "abortions" on demand, that organizations like "Planned Parenthood" offer.
Good for her.
Well we nations of the West (well of the East also) KILL thousands each day.
It should be common scientific sense that when an egg is fertilized by a sperm seed, you have human life. Yes it is just that simple.
If you deliberately with planned pre-thought kill that life, you have murdered a life.
Some pretty simple verses in the Bible PROVE when human life begins. A few studies on my website show you the plain truth of the subject.
This world now likes to kill human life, blood touches blood, as God says in His prophetic books about our nations - it is an endless killing, day after day, week after week, year after year.
What we sow we shall reap. God is no respecter of persons or nations.
All nations that practice abortion on demand - endless killing - blood touching blood, will one day REAP BLOOD, death, destruction.
The world and its nations will before the end of this age go through the punishment of destruction upon destruction, as Jesus said, that if He did not return, NO FLESH would be saved alive.
We like to kill, so we shall be killed, we shall reap what we have sown - we sow death, we shall reap death.
It is good to see SOME leaders will stand up for truth and NOT allow tax-dollars to be paid to abortionists, even going under the words "Planned Parenthood."

Scream .... I guess you should!!
So what is the latest in the CRAZY at times "art" world?
Some famous (they say) "scream" or "shock" painting that looks like an 8 year old did it, sold at auction for 107 MILLION - yes with an "m" - Million dollars, today May 2nd 2012.
If you have seen this painting you'll fully understand why I said an 8 year old could have done as good.
This is just one more example of the SILLY, STUPID, CRAZY, world we are in, that a bumbling cheap in talent painting could be sold for 107 Million dollars.
I'm flabbergasted and in shock that some individual or group of individuals would spend such money on a talentless art work.
We are truly in a MAD world that puts such so-called "art" on such a high platform.
Of course the buyer/s figure in another 10 or 20 or 50 years, the world will still be more mad, and value this painting at an even high market selling value than what it just sold for. So the investor/s thinks they have done a good investment. Sadly they are probably correct that madness will continue and this talentless art work will be of even more value as the mad side of the art world keeps getting more insane.
How we need the Kingdom of God to come to earth to stop the crazy mind-set of silly people who have fallen off the deep-end into the world of thinking such talentless art work is worth millions of dollars. Some people really do have their heads screwed on backwards.

Back home safe
After spending 5 days with my Dad (about a day's drive from me) I'm back home safe and sound.
Have not heard any world news while away, but the world is still here, muddling along to its final end eventually, but that eventually is still a number of years away.
So will soon get back to the "church history" of the first century AD I started some time back on my website, after leaving off and doing other "history" projects.
My Dad..... doing very well overall for nearly 92. Cannot walk as such but can pull himself out of his wheel chair onto his bed for a rest and get himself up and back into the wheel chair when really to do so. Wheels up and down the Nursing Home like on the wheel chair track, practicing for the Special Olympics I think :-)
One "church" friend I have where my Dad is had this book by some ex "Muslim" guy now turned Christian - nearly 500 pages. Starts out by doing the usual thing these strange mixed Muslim/Christian teaching guys do......claims to have had the light go on in his head about truth and truth and more truth, which ends up to be a strange mixture of Muslim and Christian teaching where Christ is number 3.... God Supreme first then Mohammed and then Christ. His book is a mixture of truth and deceptive error, but he insists it's ALL truth.
Where he puts Christ should tell any serious Bible Christian that he's a fruit-nut case, emphasis on "nut" with so much ego and vanity, the book drips with it all over your pans as you read it. Did not read it all, just enough to get my pans dripping with his proud vanity and self-ego-tism.
But like all nut cases he'll probably have thousands believing him. Most serious Christians will not bother reading his book, I'm glad to say.
It all just goes to show how many nutty ideas and teachings are out there. Some of the Roman Catholic and Protestant teachings are nutty enough, but you add some Muslim stuff thrown in and you really get a fanatic, eccentric, crackpot, screwball, oddball, loony, idiot, psychopathic mind-set, from planet Pluto (which scientists voted "not a planet" which is also nutty). Wow put some of the crazy evolutionist scientists with Muslim/Christian mixed teaching and you really have a bag-full of loony people.
So my visit to my Dad's town was not without some education in certain ways. Education that nutty idiot vain people are still well and healthy, sad to say. But such will it be until the end of this age and Jesus comes to bring the Kingdom of God to earth, when the true knowledge of the Lord shall cover this earth as the waters cover the sea beds.
