“A dynamic testimony for anyone would be able to say, ‘I saw and bare record that this is the Son of God,’ but for us today, we live by faith and have not seen personally this Son of God, but we still believe, based on this testimony and others like it. For with this testimony, and the work of the Spirit of God, the anointing breaks open the darkness in our hearts to let in the light of the Gospel, the good news of salvation. That good news is, God sent forth his Son to save sinners, of which, I am; but thanks to God, through the ‘Lamb of God, I now have been rescued by the ‘blood of the covenant’. God has also given us his Spirit, which bears witness in our hearts, that we are the children of God! ”

John 1:34  And I saw, and bare record that this is the Son of God.

Romans 8:16  The Spirit itself beareth witness with our spirit, that we are the children of God:

1 John 5:6  ¶This is he that came by water and blood, even Jesus Christ; not by water only, but by water and blood. And it is the Spirit that beareth witness, because the Spirit is truth.

There are so many passages in the Word of God that stand out to me. The Word of God, reveals to us the very heart of God. Through His Spirit, it is made real, with the anointing that the Word has in itself. One passage, or should I say section of scripture stands out today as I write this. I read this, say this, and meditate on it. It is the first thirty four verses of John.

John 3:16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.

A Father loveth his son,
Yea, a father grieves with his son,
A father rejoices with his son,
Sorrow for sorrow,
Prayer for prayer,
Sadness for sadness,
Joy in victory,
Comfort in defeat,
Till he cometh to the stature,
Of the fullness to which God calls him.

John 16:26 At that day ye shall ask in my name: and I say not unto you, that I will pray the Father for you:

John 16:27 For the Father himself loveth you, because ye have loved me, and have believed that I came out from God.

John 16:28 ¶I came forth from the Father, and am come into the world: again, I leave the world, and go to the Father.

There are only certain ones who shall listen and truly hear the Lord. Those who are the Lord’s will hear his voice, everyone else will not! If they hear his voice, then, they shall follow him. If they obey his Word, then they will read these words and understand his Word in them.

A Psalm by the Watchman Dana G Smith

Psalms 2:1 ¶Why do the heathen rage, and the people imagine a vain thing?
2 The kings of the earth set themselves, and the rulers take counsel together, against the LORD, and against his anointed, saying,
3 Let us break their bands asunder, and cast away their cords from us.

This is a Harlot nation,
Blinded so she cannot see,
Deaf so she cannot hear,
Muted so she does not speak truth!
What shall I say?
Who will listen to this?

Editors note: This is an article sent to by a listener of Warn Radio. It is a good treatise on the name Jesus, Yeshua, or Yahshua! I personally use both Jesus and Yeshua. However I also started using the ‘Jews for Jesus’ Hebrew for Jesus, Y’SHUA, which say they, the Hebrews will recognize!

JESUS, YESHUA or YAHSHUA??
-by Dr. Michael L. Brown.

I am continually amazed by how many people write to our ministry
and ask us questions like this one, which came in last week: “Some
Christians say we have to use the Hebrew name, Yashua. They
say calling on the name of Jesus is calling on Zeus. That Jesus is
a disguise name for Satan. What answers do you have for this?
Where can we prove the name of Jesus is correct to use in its
English translation and pronunciation?”

ABOVE THE MURAL OF ANNUNCIATION
by Barry Chamish

The pope had a lousy time in Israel. The plans for Pres. Peres to hand him sovereignty over six places in the land were shattered thanks, in no small part, to my longterm readers like Dr. Daisy Stern, Bob Kunst and Prof. Hillel Weiss. They successfully informed the Israeli public of Peres’ Vatican perfidy. And as for the Peres/Papal land seizure, curses, foiled again! The pope was plenty ticked by his disappointment and immediately blamed Israel for his crummy tour:

Vatican seeks answers for low turnout for pope’s Jerusalem mass

Roman Catholic Church officials say they would like an explanation from Israel for the poor turnout at Pope Benedict XVI’s open-air mass in Jerusalem last week.
Monsignor Antonio Franco, the papal nuncio in the Holy Land, said Thursday that church officials are still trying to figure out what happened. He says he’s received reports that worshipers with tickets were turned away at the entrance while others received their tickets too late. Some 5,000 worshippers expected at the May 12 mass next to the Garden of Gethsemane but no more than 3,000 people arrived. (Reuters)

It was about six thirty in the morning, the snow had been coming down all night. Everything was wet with branches, tree’s, leaves, fences, houses covered in a thick 3 inch coating of the white stuff. My wife and I had again ventured out early this am and went to workout as we do on a regular basis. I was done, in the car, and was looking out as the gray haze of the morning revealed the sky and heavy white snow coming down gently. Because it had so much moisture, the water content was very high as it is this time of the year. Spring storms in our neck of the woods can be devastating and dangerous. But this one brought moisture with a rather warm day to it. The temp’s hovered just below freezing. Just enough to create snow and not enough to freeze the roadways to solid ice.

The car was warming up as I waited for my wife to join me. The windshield was melting snow as it fell while the car roof poured snow and liquid onto the surface before me. As I peered through the window I could see the club as we called it. I could not see very good as the images were blurred by the melting snow turning to liquid on the windshield. I could normally see into the club very well through the windows, but on this day, the weather created images that prevented me from identifying what was before me. As I looked a shape formed and after a few moments of looking I could tell the shape of my wife and then clearly identify her face.

As I went through these moments in silence, I thought of this nation and the churches. How many do not believe what we tell them is coming. I thought about the clearly partisan congress, government, and many people who back our current President. I then remember the Apostle Paul’s words to the Corinthians saying “now we see through a glass darkly.”

1 Corinthians 13:12 For now we see through a glass, darkly; but then face to face: now I know in part; but then shall I know even as also I am known.

James 1:23 For if any be a hearer of the word, and not a doer, he is like unto a man beholding his natural face in a glass:

Hebrews 3:13 But exhort one another daily, while it is called To day; lest any of you be hardened through the deceitfulness of sin.
14 For we are made partakers of Christ, if we hold the beginning of our confidence steadfast unto the end;
15 While it is said, To day if ye will hear his voice, harden not your hearts, as in the provocation.
16 For some, when they had heard, did provoke: howbeit not all that came out of Egypt by Moses.
17 But with whom was he grieved forty years? was it not with them that had sinned, whose carcases fell in the wilderness?
18 And to whom sware he that they should not enter into his rest, but to them that believed not?
19 So we see that they could not enter in because of unbelief.

Spring has finally arrived. It is always great to see green, the mark of life, growing around and sprouting up after a winter in our part of the country. We know snow, cold, chill, freezing temps, and the hardness of that time of year. The Canadian Geese are in the river and are noisy. They too, seemed to be happy that the seasons are changing. It won’t be long before the small ones will be arriving and you will see a gaggle of them in the water and on the shore.

The birds, squirrels, deer, antelope, and even most people seem to be quite happy that this time has arrived. For the most part, the troubles of the world and this nation are a faraway land somewhere. People here tend to get lost in their everyday lives and trust their government to bring home the policies and governance the nation needs. This has been going on for decades now and the policies that we have been ignoring are being laid at our doorstep. We finally are realizing that the congress and government left to itself is trouble. Our forefathers warned us and we gave no heed. As well, our lack of holiness, purity, and godlessness has brought to America the wrath of God. Howbeit, many still are blind and deaf to that fact.

Revelation 18:7 How much she hath glorified herself, and lived deliciously, so much torment and sorrow give her: for she saith in her heart, I sit a queen, and am no widow, and shall see no sorrow.

Given to pleasures for her own purpose,
This is one who revels in her own pursuits!
Once for Pride,
Twice for Idolatry,
Thrice for Fornication,
Four times for Murder,
And Yet five for Bloodshed of Innocence,
Six times for Greed,
and More yet, Seven times for Selfishness!
For she looks to her own ways!
She has said in her heart, “I am a Queen, and shall see no sorrow”.

As 2009 gets closer, the daily account of bank foreclosures rise, businesses lay off workers, and the bailout seems to get higher. No matter what the nation of political ambitions seem to do, the trouble does not end. American life that has seen ease and prosperity which has been unequaled in the world as we know it, is coming to a bump in the road of hedonism.

Yes, the pleasure society that we all have seen and watched over the years as it seemed to enjoy it’s limitless time and money is now facing trouble. The whole irony of just how rich Americans are and how they seem to go through money like its nothing can be seen in the Madoff scandal. You know the Wall street power broker that is in the news for bilking 50 billion dollars from clients. It is said he still has 300 million left. Really? But even that amount is not enough to cover the massive losses he has occurred. Just think he was investigated some 7 years ago and was cleared. What happened? How can one person lose 50 billion? How can one person even need that much? As for my family and I, just a measly one million could set all my family including relatives up for life. Of course that would not be living as many do. But then, how can society look at this example of pure greed and get mad. After all he was just doing what many do legally on Wall street. Buy and sell. Did not the bankers lose it all as well? Did not the major banks in the World need bailout? Where did all their funds go? Yet in all this, the poor are still poor. The cold, the hungry, the oppressed in our society just look on and go without.
