What Makes Jesus Unique? No one else made the claims that He did, He is alive...............
Bible Prophecy Update (12.7.2020)Date:12/5/20
Series: Special Messages...........Speaker: Jeff Thompson
In this special update, Jeff discusses the current state of the world and shares some Biblical insights to help Christians make sense of everything that's going on. We'll touch on COVID-19, climate change, the looming global debt crisis, the Great Reset, United Nations Agenda 2030, and more, and highlight some important things for Christians to remember in the days ahead.
If you find this video useful, please share it!
The Great Reset (World Economic Forum):
United Nations Agenda 2030:
Full List of Agenda 2030 Indicators:
Hey, everybody, I wanted to do something a little bit different with this video. This is not a normal Bible teaching message. This is something much more informal.
I wanted to address the fact that if you haven't noticed, there's a whole lot going on in the world right now. And as I read what Christians are posting on social media and I listen to questions, there 's's so much confusion still. There's so many conspiracy theories out there. There's so much that we know is going on.
But we can't quite decode we can't quite make sense of.
And so I wanted to make a video that I hope will be helpful to you as you take a look at the world around you and seek to understand biblically what's going on.
I want to be very clear. This is not a Bible study. Again, these are some of my own personal insights, thoughts and opinions and views based on what I see. But looking with eyes that have spent a lot of time studying eschatology, a lot of time studying biblical prophecy. So with everything I teach, as we often say, don't believe it because I say it. Check for yourself. You pray, you discern, you get into the scriptures and you come to your own conclusions.
But I can tell you this, this video is going to give you some very, very interesting things to talk about with your friends and your brothers and sisters in the Lord and your small group.
So let's talk about conspiracies.
Let's talk about what is going on in the world right now.
And when I thought about things to cover, the very first thing that you need to understand as a Christian is that Satan is running the show on Earth right now.
Let me say that again, Satan is running the show on the earth right now. When the Lord created man and woman, he created Adam and Eve. He gave them, he gave Adam what was essentially the title deed of the Earth. He gave Adam rule and charge over the Earth to steward the Earth. Adam had that authority.
However, when Adam and Eve sinned, they transferred they gave up that title deed to Satan and Satan held the deed to the earth and had authority over the Earth.
When Jesus came to the Earth, died and rose again at the resurrection, he took back that title deed from Satan. Jesus now holds it. However, Jesus has not yet cashed it in, so to speak. He holds it, but the scroll has not been opened yet.
The title deed has not been opened yet because as soon as Jesus reclaims the earth, the opportunity for people to join the family of God, the opportunity for people to be saved will be over.
That door will close. The apostle Peter puts it like this.
He says The Lord is not slack concerning his promise as some count slackness, but his long suffering taught us his patience toward us. Why? Because he's not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.
So Jesus is not yet cashing in that title deed to the Earth because he wants to give more time for people to turn to him and be saved.
So for now, even though he doesn't hold the title deeds, Satan is still running the show on Earth.

From the order:" Executive Law § 63(12) now reads as follows:
Whenever any person shall engage in repeated fraudulent or illegal
acts or otherwise demonstrate persistent fraud or illegality in the
carrying on, conducting or transaction of business, the attorney
general may apply… for an order enjoining the continuance of such
business activity or of any fraudulent or illegal acts, directing
restitution and damages and, in an appropriate case, cancelling any
certificate filed under and by virtue of the provisions of section four
hundred forty of the former penal law or section one hundred thirty
of the general business law, and the court may award the relief
applied for or so much thereof as it may deem proper. The word
“fraud” or “fraudulent” as used herein shall include any device,
scheme or artifice to defraud and any deception, misrepresentation,
concealment, suppression, false pretense, false promise or
unconscionable contractual provisions. The term “persistent fraud”
or “illegality” as used herein shall include continuance or carrying
on of any fraudulent or illegal act or conduct. The term “repeated”
as used herein shall include repetition of any separate and distinct
fraudulent or illegal act, or conduct which affects more than one
person. Notwithstanding any law to the contrary, all monies
recovered or obtained under this subdivision by a state agency or
state official or employee acting in their official capacity shall be
subject to subdivision eleven of section four of the state finance law."
It's not shrewd business practises, it's fraud as you can see from the statute under which Trump et al were adjudicated liable.
No, in the interests of equalityjustice should follow the evidence equally.
Nobody says that individual murderers shouldn't tried because other murderers aren't being tried at the same time.
Nobody says an individual murderer is being unfairly singled out if they are successfully prosecuted.
Nobody say every person should be investigated for murder if one person is, just make it fair.
Your argument is entirely specious. People should be investigated and prosecuted on the basis of evidence, of which the prosecution had plenty in this case.
Are you being deliberately obtuse, or do you really not understand how Trump's fraudulent behaviour was a breach of Executive Law § 63(12)?

In short: people rule was taken over by corporate rulethrough their army of lobbyists and needs to be reinstalled.
Almost every politician in America accepts money or other goodis.
Their vote is bought.
That is the system in place.

Really Merlot
Read post 19 about the treatment of a black 16 year old then talk about equal rights.RE: God Bless the USA! Court Lowers Trump Bond From $464 Million to $175 Million. Due in 10 days.
I would say it like this Merlot: someone morphed what was once a solid systemgradually over time.
Over a long time too. Still I would claim the curve of destruction (Riz..)
got steeper sometime about 30 years ago or thereabout.
So here we are and something needs to be done and at the moment there is only one cure.

The Left have had their day oz and they went astray, but who can blame those folk who are trying to turn America into a Progressive, Liberal, Far Left, Social Democratic Country in order to push their preferred lifestyle.But it's time to get back to reality. It's time to get back to making America a great Republic again, which is how it was founded and is how the Constitution was designed.
It is also a Capitalist country. It was founded on Capitalism, not Socialism or Democracy. The land of opportunity. That last sentence is lacking one word though, Equal. The reason for that is because the Constitution was designed to exclude it. Ok that wasn't a great idea to begin with but the amendments have tried to address issues like that.
So what we have is a Republic with equal rights and opportunities for all, notwithstanding 'for the greater good'.
Have I left anything out?
Oh yes, unfortunately the People don’t get to elect the President or most Members of Parliament and Judges. They only get to select the Presidential candidate. That little piece of Democracy should be ammended into the Constitution, in my opinion.
Then America would have a pretty good workshop manual.

I did a bit of rc cars and once I won a local run with some 10 othere cars.
It was with a Tamiya Hotshot on 8.4v over the normal 7.2.
It was an open class so it was ok with a bit punch. I won by keeping my head cool.
As long back as the good old late 1980's this was.

This says it all
"Kalief Browder allegedly stole a backpack, was unable to post a $3000 bond, spent 800 days in solitary confinement," wrote artist IrishRyGirl. "Donald Trump, ripped off the NY tax payers of millions of dollars, gets bond reduced and gets to walk free.. sounds about white wealthy privilege."
Look up Kalief Browder if you want to know about his short life before he hanged himself.

quote"That's just one example of what Trump did fraudulently. Judge Engoron's summary judgement was based on the maths (Mar-a-Largo valued at $18M in one set of official documents and $1B+ in another, for example.) Letitia James put so much documentary evidence in front of him, he was able to say there was widespread fraud within the Trump Organisation over a 10-15 year period."
This is where the whole problem originates. They have singled out Trump and are going after him.
I already explained that he has done nothing that is not part of shrewd business practices and potential market opportunities.
In the interest of equality they now need to investigate every other developer in the USA.
Looking at two sets of figures tells you that they are different, nothing more.
You cannot invent your own conclusions, which indicates either childish behaviour or nefarious intent on the part of the prosecution and the court officials.
Then we have the bloodthirsty masses cheering on the crucifixion.
And no I am not pro-Trump.
That's it, I'm out.
RE: God Bless the USA! Court Lowers Trump Bond From $464 Million to $175 Million. Due in 10 days.
How do you know they've gone after him unfairly if you never look into anything?Okay, so Trump over-inflated the value of his properties.
For example, he said Mar-a-Largo was a social venue, rather than a residential property. All these things made Mar-a-Largo less valuable ($18-27M) so he paid less property tax.
When it came to getting loans, all of a sudden Mar-a-Largo is not only valued as if it was a home, but it was valued as if he could develop the land and build lots more homes on it (hence his claims it's worth a billion, or more.)
The banks did a certain amount of due diligence, but didn't take his business apart like a fraud investigation. They missed much of the fraud and offered Trump loans at favourable rates because he appeared to have so much to sell if he couldn't pay back the loan.
Had the banks known the full extent of the truth, they perhaps wouldn't have loaned him as much as they did and it would have been at a much higher interest rate. The favourable loan terms received meant that Trump profited more than if he'd not committed fraud.
Also, having received these loans, Trump developed other properties from which he could profit. Had he not received the loans fraudulently, he wouldn't have been able to do that.
That's just one example of what Trump did fraudulently. Judge Engoron's summary judgement was based on the maths (Mar-a-Largo valued at $18M in one set of official documents and $1B+ in another, for example.) Letitia James put so much documentary evidence in front of him, he was able to say there was widespread fraud within the Trump Organisation over a 10-15 year period.
The $354.9M original amount is just the excess money Trump gained by lying. The extra $110M is interest accrued during and after the trial. Had he admitted the fraud before it went to trial and paid the bond immediately after he wouldn't have accrued all that interest.

I have not looked in to this properly(I never do when they go after him unfairly)
but was it not just a bankloan?
Basically he was granted a larger loan than he was entiteled to,
wasn't a cash hand out as such that you never have to repay.
A loan is how i understood it.
That is why this whole thing is insane.

But in order to receive that debt forgiveness, we have to acknowledge our sin debt. And if you've never done that, you're going to have a chance to do that in just a moment. And if you have done that already, then make sure that you use this coming time of worship as an opportunity to pray. Thank God. Take communion and rejoice over the fact that your sins are forgiven. Your debt has been paid in full.
Would you bow your head? Close your eyes. Pray with me.
Father. You're a good and loving father, and we confess that. You know what is best for us? And you want what is best for us and you do what is best for us. So, Father, help us to want the same things for ourselves that you want for us. Because your heart for us is what is best. Help us to live in agreement with you. Help us to not fight against you when you're only doing what is best for us.
You're a perfect father. And so we ask that you would just forgive us for the times when we've resisted you. When you've only been acting in love for us. Father, I pray for those who are struggling right now to trust you. Father, I pray not just for a change in behavior, Lord, but for the thing that causes a change in behavior.
Father, I pray for an encounter with your goodness, with your character. Father, I pray for anyone struggling with trust right now that they would have an encounter with you. With your love, with your heart and with your character. That would make trust easy, because the more we get to know you, the more of you we see, the easier trust becomes because you are simply wonderful. You're just wonderful, Lord, so reveal yourself to us.
If you've never given your life to Jesus, if you've never asked him. To take that sin debt of yours, if you've never acknowledged that sin debt, but you want to experience the forgiveness of God. You want to be born again. You can choose to do that right now by just saying, Lord, would you come into my life?
I want you to be my God. I want you to forgive me of my sins. And I'm ready to get off the throne of my life and have you step onto it. I'm ready to have you lead my life.
If you want to make that decision right now. I'm going to pray for you in just a moment. And I want to ask you to also go to our Web site, go to my new hope that seei slash gospel, watch the gospel video there, learn more about what God has done for you and fill out the form.
Let us know you've done that so that you don't slip through the cracks so that we can follow up with you and get you going in your new relationship with Jesus. It'll be the best decision you ever made. If you've just done that, let me pray for you. Father, I thank you for anyone who's just given their life to you right now. Father, I thank you that you are moving in them, that, Jesus, you are doing a good work already.
Right now.
You're bringing healing and wholeness into their life. And father, they are beginning a completely new trajectory in their life toward wholeness, toward fulfillment, toward joy, toward peace.
Father, I thank you that you have good things in store for them. And Father, I pray that even right now, they would be overwhelmed by your great and unfailing love for them, that they would already begin to experience your peace in a radical, tangible way. We love you, Jesus. Amen

During the pandemic, some cafés refused to accept reusable cups for fear of spreading Covid-19. The use of reusable coffee cups hasn't bounced back since.According to Hannah Blumhardt of Takeaway Throwaways, research suggests that Kiwis send more than 295 million SUCs to landfills annually.
Even compostable cups are not as environmentally friendly as you might think.
"To be composted, they need to get to a specialised composting facility, which hardly any of them do," Blumhardt said.
Compostable cups, like conventional SUCs, also contain a plastic lining.
"Research has found that single-use coffee cups release billions of microplastics into the hot drink they hold."

What Makes Jesus Unique? No one else made the claims that He did, He is alive...............
So for now, even though he doesn't hold the title deeds, Satan is still running the show on Earth. And if you've never heard this before, you're probably thinking, where's that in the Bible?Jeff, that doesn't seem very biblical. Well, it's in the gospels of Matthew, Mark and Luke, which record the famous Temptation of Christ. Perhaps you recall the interaction from Luke, Chapter four verses five through seven.
It says then the devil taking him, that's Jesus up on a high mountain showed him all the kingdoms of the world in a moment in time. And the devil said to him, to Jesus, all this authority I will give you and their glory for this. Listen to me. This is what Satan says to Jesus.
He says, for this has been delivered to me, and I give it to whomever I wish.
Therefore, if you will worship before me, all will be yours.
And Jesus doesn't say, don't be ridiculous, Satan, you don't own the world, you can't make that offer. I already own it anyway. Your offer is meaningless.
He doesn't do that.
Jesus responds to Satan's offer seriously, because it's a serious, legitimate offer, because at that moment in time, Satan did indeed own the kingdoms of the world. In John 14 /30, Jesus calls Satan the ruler of this world.
John the Apostle declares, Long after Jesus returns to heaven, the whole world lies under the sway of the wicked one.
And in Second Corinthians four, again, long after the resurrection, our brother Paul speaks about those whose minds the God of this age has blinded the God of this age.
And here's what that means in terms of the world's power structure.
I want you to imagine this will use some really nice conspiratorial imagery. OK, we'll imagine a pyramid. And then just the way it is on the American one dollar bill, imagine the top of the pyramid, the cap of the pyramid separated from the rest of the pyramid. And we'll say that this pyramid represents the world's power structure.
And however you view the world, we all understand that at some point there is a top to the pyramid.
There is a group of people who make the biggest decisions on Earth who are calling the shots and earthly politics and industry and things like this.
And so whatever you believe, let's call that group at the very top, the elite. Now, if you don't believe in conspiracies at all that, then you believe that these are essentially just heads of state that's as high as the power structure on earth gets.
That's fine. That's cool. If that's what you believe, that's who is at that level.
They're part of what we'll call the elite. If you believe in conspiracies at this level, at the top elite level, then let me show off my conspiratorial bona fides here a little bit.
If you believe that's the Illuminati, the Bill de Bergers, the Trilateral Commission, the UN, the deep state, the World Economic Forum that gathers in Davos, the world banking families, the Merovingian bloodline, the lizard people, whatever you think, whatever you buy into, you believe that they're at the top and they're part of the elite. What the Bible tells us is that whoever those people are.
Above them is actually another level that's not where the power structure ends, you get to the top of the pyramid. That's not where the power structure ends.
You have to cross over into the spiritual world to get to the next level, because at the next level, above those people is Satan, the God of the sage, the one who holds the world system under his sway.
That is what the Bible teaches, that Satan is ultimately at the top of the world's power structure.
And so the people at that elite level, whether they realize it or not, are ultimately under the influence of Satan.
We need to understand that according to the Bible, anyone who does not belong to Jesus is under the influence of Satan. They are susceptible to being used by him for his purposes.
