some thoughts
Mood:  d'oh
Topic: todays politics

I was recently watching a Blaze TV discussion and some thoughts came to mind.

The first was, what happened to "by the people and for the people". Have our politians (they are not statesman or women) totally forgotten the basis of this country. 

The second was that maybe the govenors should look at thier states quarantine laws.  I looked at Minnesotas and they are very eye opening.

The third is that when I worked in facilities at the U of M in Health Sciences we did not depend on doctors or researches to tell us how to keep the staff, visitors, and ourselves safe. We depended on a separate department called environmental Health and safety they gave us routine training and guidance.  They tested the fume hoods that were used by researchers amd worked with us to make sure ventilation was sufficient for the type of research being done.

The fourth was the CDC.  What were they created to do and what are they currently doing. If they were using the funds they have been given to do the job the were given and not political side trips such as gun violence which is not a disease or birth rates.  The could of been reviewing the level of need supplies for something like this. when I was a kid I can remeber the old civil dfense shelters that were there incase of a nuclear attack.  They were kept up for years.

The last is if we were to suspend the nergy codes stores, offices, schools, etc could make changes to thier ventilation systems such Air exchnage change rates which would reduce the level of contagen in the air.  They could also install a nominal amount of uvc lamps (flourescent or incandescent style) to reduce the contagen levels even more.

I have not heard much about these.  Let me know what you think.

Are we afraid ti speak of Gods wrath
Mood:  incredulous
Topic: the end is near

If we look in the scriptures we can see that God could get upset.  In Exodus we see a time when he got so mad that he sent a plaque upon Israel.  However we also see in many of the stories that God would send a messenger. here are just a few.

Noah and the arch - Noah warned the people and then built an Arch 

Jonah and the whale - Jonah did not want to warn Niniveh

Abraham and Sodom/Gomorah - Abraham was recued from distuction

Will God rescue us or will we all have to pay the price besause we have not accepted the fact that Jesus allready paid it for us.

And now here we are today in a society that has lost its way.  Do not murder (kill) I think the commandment says yet we kill (murder) the creations that God has put in a womans womb with hardly a thought. And sexual sin I can not believe how many times the scirptures warn us about that.  Yet we sit back and tell everyone no matter what you do God loves you. You may not like it but I think there is a requirement, we have to let his commandments lead us to a life that reflects righteousness.  Look at the statistics below and ask yourselves, if our God may be wrathful at this time and then reach out and warn others just as Noah, Jonah, and Abraham did. 

Population   covid cases (4/14) Abortions LGBTQ

CA 39.5 million 22,348 no report      1,615,000

TX 28.7 million 13,906  9/1000 838,000

FL 21.3 million 20,394 19/1000 772,000

NY 19.5 million  195,081 23/1000 800,000

One last statistic for you. There is only one state that has more than 40 percent church attendance.  All others rank from a low of 17 percent to whopping high of the mid 30 percent.  We who call ourselves believers in God are quite pathetic are we not.

Coronavirus - is it an angry God
Mood:  on fire
Topic: the end is near

Have we angerd our God.  It has always been and always will be our job as God fearing people to keep our nation in line with Gods law.

I believe the current coronavirus may very well be the response of a very angry God (One Nation Under God).

Having worked as a building engineer for my 40 year carreer I learned to do one thing and that was to not hang my hat on the obvious, but to look deep for the real problem with a piece of equipment.  I eventually got into indoor air quality and that sometime required even deeper digging.

I say that as an introduction because as a believer in the one true God I look to his scriptures and pray for answers.  Well the other day during the time I read his word I was moved to look up some statistics and here they are.

States & nations with highest cornavirus are as follows: New York, Washington, California, New Jersey, & China .  These are the top five.

States & nations that have the least protestant and other Christian religions: New York (43rd), Washington (54th), California (45th), Vermont (56th) & China (pretty low but only 2% are protestant and other Christian religion). 

Lets try something that is really controverial. States & nations with the highest abortion rates of 15 to 44 year old women; Washington D.C (32.7/1000), New York (29.6/1000), New Jersey (25.8/1000), Maryland (23.8/1000), Florida (20.6/1000), & China (19.2/1000).

OK, lets get even more controversial. States & nations with a greater LGBT standing: Maryland (5.7% of population). Massaschusetts (4.9% of population), California (4.8% of population), New York (4.5% of population), & China (you are your ?????)

I can not imagine that my God is not a little bit angry when you look at these numbers. 

Be Blessed, Rev Naumann 

 

impeachment
Mood:  surprised
Topic: todays politics

Greeting in Christ,

           I recetly reread a publication (Imprimis) that I get and if you are one of the people I think have the same world view as I do you might feel the same way i do. In fact I may have sent you a copy of it.

           This whole impeachment thing is getting out of hand.  If you read the article or not if have an opinion on the current impeachment please post a comment.

Why are we the USA still hated
Mood:  irritated
Topic: Christian nation

Greetings In Christ,

        I challenge people to do the historical math.  In April of 2008 I did a blog on Americas Christian history and the last muslim holy wars.  When were they?  I bet you would tell me 1200's or the 1500's maybe even the 1800's when John Adams was president and we wrote treaties with the muslim population. I would say it is starting anew,  each of the past pushes by the Muslims were  aprox. 300 years apart.  Take a look at my blog from April 2008 before you comment.

        My point back then is that we were and today still are a Christian nation. If we were not the muslims would not have the attitude that they do today.

In Christ, Old Ironsides 

Does life have value
Topic: Bible and constitution

Do we as people value life anymore? We have individuals that have been put on drugs to control them rather than address the spritual side of their lives.

The next thing we know is that they get a weapon whether legally or not, but they do.  Then everyone blames the gun.  

In our most recent school shooting many (17) lost thier lives without being able to choose.  However we do not hear a thing about the millions that loose thier lives by abortion (aborticide is more accurate) for the convineince of the mother in 96 percent of those that are performed.  Not because of rape and incest or some other reason as we are led to believe.

With that I say to the young people that are out there protesting take a moment to think where you could of been (in a dumpster) if you had been concieved by God in the womb of a women who would rather do like the young man in florida and pass judgement on Gods choice to allow conception and instead choose death by whatever means.

dangers of theological apathy
Now Playing: Keep in mind throughout this blog
Topic: todays politics
in november of 2010 my wife and I left the body of beleivers we called church.   keep in mind throughiout this blog that a is notthe building or the group in your local area, but all that belive in jesus which inhabit the earth. we left this body because we bacame aware that the pastor/leader was slowly introducing a man made doctrine  called  reformed  theology.  this doctrine is based on the teachings of a man named john calvin, which is why the doctrine is also known as calvinism, another one of the isms you know communism, socialism, facism, even manachecism if you do even a miner amount of research you will also  find that john calvin is considered the founder of the presbyterian church.                                   since this has continued to be a burden on my heart i feel led by the lord to blog my studies of john calvin.                                                                                                                                                                                 

Im back

Is there change in the air
Topic: todays politics

If we pray,

I believe a change is coming.  I'm not sure but as I watched the embedded video the thought that came to my mind is answered prayer.
