This link will take you to a reading I did of Communion with God by non-conformist preacher Matthew Barker. Matthew Barker lived from 1619-1698. https://anchor.fm/david-bennett48/episodes/Communion-with-God-e140a1f
Bible
The following is an email from Search for the Truth.
‘In order for our eyes to see, many chemical and electrical reactions must take place in the proper sequence. Even more importantly, these reactions must happen almost instantaneously for us to see what is happening, while it is still happening.
Researchers have recently discovered just how quickly light causes the first chemical change within our eye. In order for our brain to see an image, a chemical in our eye which is sensitive to light must respond as soon as a photon of light strikes it. This type of chemical change is called a photochemical reaction. Photochemical reactions are the basis of how photographic paper works, but the reactions that result in a printed picture are extremely slow compared to the photochemical reactions in our eye. The fastest photographic film requires the camera lens to remain open for about 1/10,000 of a second. Biologists have found that the eye’s photo-chemistry is so fast that the first reaction in the sequence takes place in approximately 1/5,000,000,000 (one-five billionth) of a second. This is 500,000 times faster than our best film capabilities.
Our attempts to duplicate the processes in our eyes fall short of God’s original design by such an extreme amount that Darwin himself admitted that the human eye seemed to defy his theory of evolution.‘ http://www.searchforthetruth.net/
This is from an email sent out by Creation Research and again John Mackay tells it like it is.
‘AUSSIE PM GRANTS ALL DOCTORS IMMUNITY after Australian Medics at the local level had demanded legal immunity against malpractice suits for AstraZeneca vaccination problems – before they would vaccinate! Translation – both groups know that whatever else the vaccine does, it can also kill and incapacitate, despite abundant denials from a multitude of Authorities. Has the Aussie Prime Minister done the Bond thing and given them a license to kill?
In my home State of Queensland, ‘Labour’ Premier Palaszczuk is demanding everyone install and use the Government Phone Tracing App before you can even buy a loaf of bread. People who refuse have already been denied entrance to food stores by supermarkets such as Coles, who fear the savage Government threat of huge fines unless they cooperate. Is our State Government really willing to kill people by starvation if they don’t comply? That wouldn’t surprise us. The atheist feminist premier already allows the killing of huge number of babies each week in government authorised abortion clinics, so what’s a few more adults and children who die of hunger?
Even Churches are being forced to register all attenders on the Government App, and most churches who are complying have not even considered if they will supply food to any who refuse to register and therefore cannot buy food or get work etc. Will churches exclude Non-App’ers? Will they allow the great Un-App’d seekers in off the streets? Church leaders ought not be surprised there are those who won’t comply, especially nationalities from a background under Communism who have had first-hand experience of Atheists in Government who want to totally control and eliminate Christians.
The current rate of vaccination is around 7% in Australia which perhaps tells PMs and Premiers, they must not assume Australians are stupid. Many have family members or friends who have either been incredibly ill, or have died within weeks of receiving the vaccine. Aussies will actually contact Professors of developmental medicine or find doctors or nurses who advise them to not have a shot, even though that can risk such medics being prosecuted. The average Aussie is ok enuf at math, to calculate, even based on the official Australian figures, you have at least the same odds of dying or being incapacitated after the vaccine as you have from Covid-19.
More sadly, our Pentecostal PM has not yet even suggested that we as a Nation should humble ourselves and pray to the Almighty Creator Christ. But that is our advice – seek the Lord while He may be found before it’s too late. He is the Sovereign God who alone created the original good coronavirus and has authority even over what increasingly seems to be a human re-engineered bad virus from China – created to attack man, not animals, and designed to do evil and not good. Certainly evidence that humans were designed in God the Creator’s image (so we too can create on a mini scale), and sad and real evidence that we have fallen into sin, so our creations can be for evil and not good. Genesis 1-3 is the real history of mankind.’ https://creationresearch.net/
Today, many professing Christians have lost touch with what it means “to meditate”. Perhaps this short video will help.
Psakm 1:2 But his delight is in the law of the LORD; and in his law doth he meditate day and night.
Psalm 104:34 My meditation of him shall be sweet: I will be glad in the LORD.
Psalm 119:15 I will meditate in thy precepts, and have respect unto thy ways.
Psalm 119:148 Mine eyes prevent the night watches, that I might meditate in thy word.
Evolution is a lie of the Devil! Most unsaved people have fallen for it and sadly many professing “Christians” have as well. If you are one of those previously mentioned here is another video from Creation Moments that just might make you rethink your evolutionary position.
The Sodomites are out for our children and grandchildren. The longer this war continues the more the young people begin to believe this lifestyle is “normal” The following article outlines how this anti-god lifestyle is being pushed on the young. However, God is not mocked and there is a judgement coming.
‘The LGBT brainwashing and exploitation of children continues to escalate.
Here are 4 disturbing examples showing how kids are being brainwashed that the LGBT lifestyle is a moral good that should be applauded, promoted and experimented with…and 4 ways parents, grandparents and churches are responding.
The media has long been an advocate for LGBT acceptances among adults, but now it’s being promoted as a superior lifestyle choice…even for children. It’s making children unsure of who they are, their sexuality and beliefs.
Netflix, TV, movies and other entertainment have been platforms used to demonize Christians who support Biblical morality, and to promote instead the alternative lifestyle as a positive lifestyle choice to be embraced and not questioned.
But now the attention has shifted to an aggressive, extreme promotion to children.
Here are a few new examples:
1. Biden flies “gay” flag at U.S. embassies worldwide – schools across America are following his example.
The Vatican is outraged.
It’s a “moral” good to help teach kids in elementary school and up.
Other countries, Christians, and people who recognize the danger of taking a political stand by the U.S. Embassy are outraged.
But the “gay” flag flies next to or under the U.S. flag at foreign embassies worldwide based on Biden’s orders for the month of June or beyond.
Other government agencies in the U.S. are doing this also. This includes schools – public, government-run schools – in the classrooms and on the schools’ flagpoles.
Classrooms are displaying the gay flag. Schools are flying the gay flag.
2. Kellogg is marketing LGBT- themed cereal for kids.
For example, Tony the Tiger has a gay theme.
They are just one of many corporations. Chipotle has drag tacos.
3. Children’s TV shows and cartoons are using homosexual, lesbian and transgender characters.
- Rugrats is being relaunched with Betty, the mother of two, as a lesbian, single mom.
- Nickelodeon has “Blues Clues and You!” at a gay pride parade with an animated drag queen. The video includes families with two moms, two dads, trans-identified members and “ace, bi and pan” parents. One character has scars from transgender sex change surgery from female to male.
Disney channel, the Cartoon channel – no cartoon venue except Christian TV or apps is safe for kids.
4. Sports is promoting pro-gay political/cultural messages – kids’ “heroes.”
The San Francisco Giants team is playing in gay pride uniforms and their caps featuring “SF’ logo with colors of the gay flag, and also a patch on their jerseys.
This and more is a sad reflection of our society not only embracing secular humanism…but advocating a lifestyle at odds with a Biblical worldview – and many parents.
What’s your reaction? What’s the reaction of Christians? What’s the reaction of parents and grandparents? What’s the reaction of those who are concerned about this promotion to kids of any faith or persuasion?
There are four groups…four different responses.
1. Group #1: Ignore it.
Some may ignore and pretend it isn’t happening.
Churches and pastors will be silent and pretend nothing is happening.
Parents will be silent and pretend nothing is happening.
Grandparents will pretend nothing is happening.
The result?
The kids believe that the LGBT lifestyle is normal, that it is moral and to be encouraged.
They will believe that they should experiment with the LGBT lifestyle to see if it’s right for them or not.
2. Group #2: Compromise with it.
Some churches, parents and grandparents are compromising their Biblical principles and are open to cultural change. They simply want to get along.
They prefer not to spark controversy.
For churches and pastors – cultural acceptance and not offending anyone about Biblical morality is a safer way to grow a church, generate donations and minister to their fellowship.
But that’s not what the Bible teaches.
The Bible is very clear about marriage.
It’s clear about marriage between a man and woman.
It’s clear about monogamous relationships.
It’s clear about male and female.
It’s clear that a Biblical worldview is at odds with gender dysphoria.
3. Group #3: Celebrate it.
Some churches, parents and grandparents celebrate these moves and claim that they are positive and loving.
But that is not what the Bible says.
The Bible says we are to declare God’s word and the Gospel without compromise.
I’m leading a Bible study now in the book of Philippians.
In the first chapter, in a culture in many ways not unlike what we’re facing today, the Apostle Paul talks about the mercy and grace of God.
He talks about the power of prayer. He talks about being bold and proclaiming the gospel and how the gospel was impacting the culture – even in Caesar’s household.
Paul did not compromise.
He did not contradict the Word of God for “acceptance.”
He stood firm.
It’s critical that we stand firm as we teach the children and grandchildren to stand for Biblical morality.
It’s not going to happen at school. Not even Sunday school.
They need to understand the difference between what is right or wrong, based on Scripture.
They need to discern why the brainwashing is an attack against Biblical principles, and that the kids should know how to defend a Biblical worldview.
It’s important for kids to be able to stand firm, knowing that they will be called a bigot, a hater or worse.
Some Christians want to get along and have no conflict.
But that’s not what we see in the Bible.
And that’s not how we advance the gospel.
4. Group #4: Stand Firm against it.
Some pastors, churches, parents, and grandparents are standing firm.
They are standing against this injustice to children. They are speaking out.
- Pastors and churches must teach their body the truth and equip their fellowship to stand firm…and mobilize to be a voice of truth.
- Parents and grandparents must now teach their kids counter-cultural truth.
- Help stop the Equality Act.
- Know about some of the great materials addressing these issues with love and truth.
- Joe Dallas is my favorite author, but there are many more.
- Also groups – for example, look at changemovement.com for powerful videos of ex-gays, their testimonials and more.
Now is the time for everyone to stand firm.
Here is one other thing you can do now: Protect the kids and religious liberty by defeating the Equality Act.
Yes, elections have consequences:
- Elected officials determine what is taught in schools.
- Elected officials pass laws and issue executive orders about how “equality” is defined and who can be fired, fined or prosecuted if they dissent from the new sexual standards.
- Elected officials nominate and confirm federal judges who rule on disputes over the application of laws such as the Equality Act.’ https://mychristiandaily.com/brainwashing-of-children-disturbing-examples-show-lgbt-advocacy-to-the-young/
Luke 11:28 “But he said, Yea rather, blessed [are] they that hear the word of God, and keep it.”
‘Our senses link us to the world around us and enable us to interact with the world. While most people believe that our sense of sight is the highest of the senses and the most marvelous in design, our sense of hearing is no less marvelous.
When a sound strikes your ear, your eardrum vibrates with the sound waves, fast or slow, soft or hard. These variations in vibration provide us with important information about the nature of the sound we are hearing. Some sounds produce a vibration in the eardrum as small as a billionth of a centimeter – only one-tenth the diameter of a hydrogen atom! There are three tiny bones in the middle ear called the hammer, anvil and stirrup. They pick up the vibrations from the eardrum, amplify them and send them on to the cochlea. The cochlea is filled with about 25,000 tiny hair cells that finally turn the vibrations into electrical signals that are sent on to the brain.
Our hearing is designed to be more sensitive to high-pitched sounds than to lower sounds. If we had just a little more sensitivity to lower-pitched sounds, we would continuously be distracted by the internal sounds of our body, including the blood rushing through our arteries. In fact, to help prevent this, there are no blood vessels at all in that part of the ear where vibrations are turned into electrical impulses. The body supports life in these tissues by constantly bathing them in dissolved nutrients.
While we can hear many things, and decide not to hear other things, the Creator who so marvelously designed our ears invites us to hear His Word to us from the Bible.’https://creationmoments.com/sermons/insulated-ears-2/?mc_cid=60fcec03a5&mc_eid=00c1dcff3c
This is the Christian testimony of Walter Terrell as told on Unshackled.
‘Comic books, corporations, computer games, and Cruella de Ville. What do they all have in common? They are taking Pride Month from a naked and debaucherous parade in coastal cities, to an industry targeting children in their shows, schools and libraries.
June is the feast month for the chief of all cardinal sins, and is this week’s topic for The Federalist’s Christopher Bedford and his guest, The American Conservative’s Dr. Shaun Rieley. The two discuss what the American rulers don’t want you to hear: that all human beings have inherent dignity, the education system is in steep decline, and that children have been failed by a society that celebrates its own pride and worships the gods of its own imagination.
Join the Culture War with The Federalist’s Christopher Bedford as he exposes the forces behind this decline in social decency and human dignity, and the actual rainbow of hope that lies ahead for those who wish to chase virtue.’https://rumble.com/vikugb-sexualized-propaganda-in-products-aimed-at-8-year-olds-isnt-edgy-its-gross..html?mref=6zof&mc=dgip3&utm_source=newsletter&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=BPR&ep=2
‘SCIENTISTS “EVOLVE A FUNGUS” claims Science (AAAS) News 4 June 2021, and Scientific Reports 19 May 2021 doi:10.1038/s41598-021-89811-2. Researchers looking for a method of biological control of the Verroa mite, which has devastated honeybee colonies, have found a fungus that attacks and kills the mites. However, the fungus grows poorly in the warm temperatures of a beehive, which can be up to 35°C. A group of scientists led by Jennifer Han of Washington State University, Pullman, have used “directed evolution” to develop a strain of the fungus that can tolerate the heat and kill the mites. They subjected cultures of the fungus to stress by starvation and adding hydrogen peroxide to the growing medium to increase the rate of mutations. They then placed them in an incubator and raised the temperature. Some of the fungi survived this heat test, and these were selected out and cultured again. After seven rounds of heat and selection the researchers had a strain that would survive at 35°C. The researchers then worked on making the fungus more deadly. They placed a culture of the fungus in a beehive and then collected dead mites from the hive. Only 4% of the dead mites had died from the fungus, but the researcher collected the fungus from these, cultured it, and placed it in the beehive. More mites were killed by the fungus, so the scientists grew the fungus again from the dead mites, repeated the process until they had a strain that killed over 60% of the mites.

ED. COM. This is a clever piece of manipulation and artificial selection, but nothing has evolved, since scientists started with a fungus that already existed and already had strains (variations) that could kill mites in various conditions. If any mutations resulted from the stress imposed on the fungus they only resulted in variations of the same fungus. They did not make a new fungus. After some intelligent purposeful ‘unnatural selection’ the scientists had a strain of the fungus that killed mites at beehive temperatures. The fungus is still the classified as the same fungus since it has no real differences to the original. We commend these scientists making progress in controlling a serious pest, but we cannot commend their deliberate misuse of the language. The use of the words “evolve” and “evolution” for what they have done is another classic misuse of these words designed to keep Darwin’s evolution in people’s minds whenever they read any scientific study on change. This is a good reminder that evolution only really occurs in the minds of evolutionists. Out in the real world there are mutations and selection, both natural and artificial, but none of these are evolution. Mutations simply cause variation in what already exists. Selection only works on what already exists. These processes cannot make something that does not already exist, so they cannot make a new living thing, nor change one kind of living thing into another.’ https://creationresearch.net/
