COVENANT CREATIONISM VS. COVENANT ESCHATOLOGY

Just want to "bookmark" another media file for future reference here:

THEN AND NOW (Preterist Podcast by Dr. Ed Stevens)

I am listening to this podcast and will comment momentarily...

Suffice it to say, the Book of Genesis should be taken literally -- i.e., the sense in which it was intended (history, prophecy, allegory, parable, etc.). I agree with Dr. Stevens' arguments for a "literal" six-day creation of all things.

Dr. Stevens even endorses one of my linked ministries here at Worldview Window, namely, Answers in Genesis (see right sidebar)!

Kudos to Ed Stevens!

REVELATION 13: ROME AND THE JEWS

A pretty good summation of Revelation 13, which I just read, was offered by Gary DeMar in this video: "What Revelation Doesn't Say." No "millennium" here.

DEBATE: HAVE THE NEW TESTAMENT CHARISMATIC GIFTS CEASED? (YOUTUBE)

Looks like John MacArthur's Strange Fire Conference has (wait for it...) SPARKED an ongoing, widespread, "in-house/family" debate among brothers and sisters in Christ (or not).

Worth hashing out, without getting "burned."



Author's Note: the above link to "Strange Fire Conference" is a better one for Grace To You's collection than that found in my previous post, which I searched for myself

GRACE TO YOU (TUBE)

Okay. I got your attention.

Now, you can see what I'm "selling" here at Worldview Window: resources to help shape your worldview to fit God's Word.

Everyone, including me, needs that!

I recently decided to watch Dr. John MacArthur's conference, "Strange Fire," about the Charismatic Movement's excesses and abuses. I highly recommend watching/listening to the videos of the sessions. They will violate your comfort zones (they did mine) and slay ("in the Spirit") your sacred cows.

Nothing says "listen to me" like hearing your favorite preacher (or the top five of your A-list) being categorized in an unfavorable, unbiblical camp by another of your favorite preachers!

Welcome to the Body of Christ! Enjoy your media:

MOTHER OF ALL CONSPIRACIES

Welcome to America!

Land of the free, home of the brave...

... and other things.

Thank God there are people out there who will rise up against tyranny that kills.  We do this verbally-- not violently. In calling today's post Mother of All Conspiracies, I am speaking of the murder of JFK.

Tomorrow marks the 50th anniversary of this heinous crime.

There are many events in history that exemplify evil in this world. But this one points to the audacity of the powers that be, in our world, to commit vicious crimes openly, and to try covering up their guilt.

My heart says, "Not on our watch! Not in our world!"

God help us. Amen.

ANOTHER MOBILE POST

Today' post comes after losing my first one to oblivion after changing over to 4G from Wi-Fi. I am here at work in the parking lot on my break on my Android all about prepositions! But I digress.

Seriously, I learn what not to do every time I use this thing (Motorola Droid RAZR M). Today, I was reminded to ensure a good connection to the Internet before composing a blog post, or anything else! That may save you grief...

Did I mention "save?"

Oh, yes. Save work before losing it. Or you may end up "losing it" if you catch my 100+°F drift. This is September weather after all.

Well, I must close this post and hope it goes out there! God bless!

MILITARY-INDUSTRIAL COMPLEX 1, JFK 0

AS THE FIFTIETH ANNIVERSARY of the assassination of President John Fitzgerald Kennedy approaches (November 22, 1963), I have been watching -- in my spare time, of course -- videos about this national tragedy, which was (and is) emblematic of a most serious problem to peace-loving people around the world. Namely, the absolute corruption of absolute power.

I believe JFK was one of many victims of the "Military-Industrial-Complex" (Eisenhower) power struggle going on everywhere around us.

The brutal rule of tyrants throughout history is no longer a remote concern reserved only for far-flung lands, never touching our home shores. See InfoWars.

The mass media of audio, video, and print have supplemented our basic modes of communication to accelerate the spread of information around the globe. Technology has parted the curtains hiding the indescribable cruelty of human beings to each other. The sad reality of sin and misery bear their full fruit every day, and we may post its evidence online for a digital world to see.

Witness the murder of JFK. Literally.

A casual search on YouTube yields volumes of video and websites to research any subject. This ability only asks for sufficient time in the day and life of Internet citizens to expose themselves to what could otherwise be satisfactorily ignored for sanity's sake.

Let me suggest Richard Belzer, Jim Marrs, and Mark Lane as excellent starting points to research this most intriguing subject. The general consensus, in my opinion, of these sources is that our own Central Intelligence Agency plays an essential role in many high- and low-profile crimes justified in the name of national security.

God is the Ultimate Judge of mankind -- indeed, of creation. It behooves His creatures (you and me) to look to Him for trust in His goodness and judgment, and to rely on His salvation in His Son Jesus Christ. Things can be awful in this life. But only Jesus saves to the uttermost!

JUICE PLUS

In such a generally-themed blog like this one ("worldview window"), I reserve the right as its owner and author to publish edifying media like the following video. It is a presentation by a leading physician in America on the subject of real, clinically proven benefits of taking Juice Plus.


Power Behind Juice Plus from Team Juice Plus+ on Vimeo.

Intentionally, I am including a link to buy it and try it. There is no long-term commitment to buy a minimal amount every month. Just visit my website to learn all about it, and try it for yourself.

Are you kidding me? There is so much research backing this product up, that every human being needs the whole food, antioxidant, phyto-nutrient (plant-based), no sugar, fruit-and-vegetable, berries and grains POWER of Juice Plus!   

Eat it in good health.

TWEET CAPSULE

Because of employer concerns, I had to delete the following tweet from my Twitter feed. The name has been  hidden to protect the paranoid. Perhaps in the future, I will divulge the name of the financial industry-leading investment firm I am not speaking of ;)

Please note: when I deleted this tweet on Twitter, I also lost the formatting that goes with it. Nevertheless, here it is, without fanfare:

BLOG UPDATES

Welcome to the latest, greatest, new and improved Worldview Window! I hope you enjoy your visit.

Screenshot


I have made so many cosmetic and substantive changes to this blog, that I was left with one option for conveying the sheer import of its grand metamorphosis: a screenshot! In the event I refresh my blog in the future again, I have preserved for posterity an image for future reference of my blog's "former glory."

Leave a legacy. Google can help. God bless. Come again.


I LOST MY TEMPORARY JOB!!!!!!

Here at Worldview Window, we leave no vent behind.

I wish to vent my current frustration over losing my temporary job. No negative emotion has escaped my full venting powers since I received the awful news last Friday. In my solitary moments, I have not hesitated to engage in full-on, sinful behavior toward God, with cursing and profanity. My family as well have been the involuntary listeners to my angry comments and vitriol toward "my masters."

Who else will listen? Certainly not my employers. I need a real human being on my side. Thank you, Jesus.


Tomorrow, I begin the process all over again. Pray for me. Thank you.

CAN A BLOG DO THAT?

Who needs a blog anyway? I can "tweet," "Facebook," and "text" my innermost (filtered) thoughts to all the world simultaneously.

Can a blog do that? No. Well, not without a lot of time and trouble swindling and securing readers-- lots of them.

Perhaps I am just old-school enough to need a little throwback to a typewriter/keyboard session meant to restore my sense of literacy and "educatedness." Capitalization, punctuation, and grammar count here :)

Only the best blogs ever make the cut for loyal readership and attention-spanning (get it?). That is what a blog should do.

Compare this functionality with that of a text message, which is a momentary lapse in interpersonal communication just long enough to thumb out a quick missive to the digitized masses out there on their various mobile devices, one of whom is hopefully someone you know, love, and/or trust. Indeed, the instant gratification of getting an answer back is priceless. Contact with another human being has been established once again.

Or better yet (in some cases), a tweet is good, which is a 145-character statement or question or comment or hyperlink or embedded video...

Or Facebook, which has become a verb as well as a synonym for publishing comments and other such content that the sender and receiver mutually agree to indulge in to the questionable edification of both. Almost  as much fun (or more than) being there!

But a blog is the lumbering dinosaur that refuses to die in the age of instant messages with little or no analysis behind them. Ponder the meaning of life and the issues therein, put fingers to keyboard, and presto, you are a blogger!

The sky (or "cloud") is the limit. Some restrictions apply.

We members of the fallen human race (you know who you are) need to share our lives and experiences however and whenever we can. In an age of net population increase ("boom") and gross telecommunication advancement, let us join and embrace the capabilities at our fingertips before the governments of this world seize our beloved freedom of speech, and we are left with pen and paper passed between prison cells.

Can a blog do that? Yes!

THE AMAZING ANDROID

Well, I am presently uploading a video shot with my Droid smartphone to YouTube. As it completes this momentous task, I am composing this post and falling asleep.

So much to share, so little time.

Please deposit 75 cents for the next three minutes? We've come a long way!

TAKE FIREFLIGHT... NOW!


Today, I had opportunity to indulge myself in listening to and watching Fireflight. I even listened to the whole album!

I first saw Fireflight at a Christian Winter Jam Music Festival at US Airways Center in 2011 to the best of my recollection. It was immediately apparent to me this band of Spirited and talented musicians were very well-loved by the audience, and I immediately "felt the love" from them and for them as well.

Fast forward to last year, when I was invited to another Christian rock concert, this time at Christ Church of the Valley. Guess who was in the line-up again? You guessed it! Fireflight!

Well, having watched their YouTube videos ad nauseum (impossible, really), and visited their website at FireFlightRock, I immediately liked their music and lyrics - and spirit. If you like layers of technologically-enhanced, hard-driving rock with beautiful lyrics and life-changing perspective, Fireflight will meet your needs.

Their music videos won my heart. Their refreshing style appeals to me as good rock music and creativity in one tight package. Most importantly, the object of their affection is God. And you.

Needless to say, I look forward to my next opportunity to see and hear their tight rock rhythms, impeccable lyrics, heart-winning theology, warm and humorous documentary videos, and more.

Stay tuned.

MY FIRST DROID-BASED BLOG POST

What fun it is to type with one finger (the right index)! I figure if I can post content this way, then the cloud is the limit!

Don't expect lengthy posts from my Droid Razor M. Look for me on Facebook, LinkedIn, and other fine social media.

Perhaps mine is a simple-minded blog. Perhaps it is not as verbose and eloquent as others. Perhaps it is an exercise in narcissism. Or not.

NORTH KOREA PRISON CAMPS

As a follow up to my last post, I want to post a video I just watched called, "Kimjongilia: North Korea Prison Camps."

It is a very well-made video about several people who escaped (and lived) to tell their stories of life (and death) in North Korea, particularly in prison camps. Not graphic or gratuitous, it is a family-friendly presentation of something that only exists in our free world worst nightmares.

North Korea, tragically, bears the legacy of Joseph Stalin, the monster who ruled over the deaths of 60 million Russians of all stripes and sizes. My statistics may be off, but not by much.

Pick your tyrant. YouTube is full of videos about their vicious, brutal, and diabolical reigns of terror. Can we not do anything to stop them?

TIANANMEN SQUARE MASSACRE OF 1989

In lieu of posting this on Facebook, I am posting this video about the 1989 Tiananmen Square Massacre by the Communist Chinese People's Liberation Army (PLA) of tens of thousands of college students, professors, and a myriad other occupations represented during the movement.

It is graphic, and should be viewed after consideration that these images were not allowed to be shown to the Chinese people, purportedly. They obviously survived that ban, and are shown here in all their gruesomeness and detail.

Think long and hard about supporting communism in any form. A lengthy viewing of video documentaries on Stalin and Mao Tse Tung has taught me, or reminded me, that Satan is alive and well in this world. Witness his handiwork.

In spite of that, Jesus is Lord. His Word (the Bible) explains everything.



NEW YEAR, NEW LOOK

Remember this? My old header background image for this blog.
SAME BLOG.

Oh, that was obvious! I digress.

Happy New Year!

Like my new look for WW? Hope so. It's staying for now.

Same "great" blog (IMHO). Same idiosyncratic ads in the sidebar. Same robo-comments for me to moderate into the circular cyber-file. I only keep human ones...

I will try to use more images in my posts in the coming year (2013). That should attract more right-sides-of-the-brains out there in the blogosphere. It certainly would help attract mine!

So now is the time for me to select an image from my desktop dinosaur-- I mean, PC. There. Done. I like it... for now.
