I appeal to you therefore, brother, by the mercies of God, to present your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and acceptable to God, which is your spiritual worship. Do not be conformed to this world but be transformed by the renewal of your mind., that you may prove what is the will of God, what is good and acceptable and perfect. For by the grace given to me I bid everyone among you not to think of himself more highly than he ought to think, but think sober judgement, each according to the mesure of faith which God has assigned him. For as in one body we have many members, and all the members do not have the same function, so we though many, are one body in Christ, and individually members one of another. Having gifts that differ according to the grace given to us, let us use them: if prophecy, in proportion to our faith; if service, in our serving, he who teaches, in his teaching; he who exhorts, in his exhortation he who gives aid, with zeal; he who does act of mercy, with cheerfulness.
O the depth of the riches and wisdom and knowledge of God! How unsearchable are his judgments and how inscrutable his ways! For who has known the mind of the Lord, or who has been his counselor? Or who has given a gift to him that he might be repaid? For from him, and through him, and to him are all things.
When Jesus came into the district of Caeasarcea Philippi, he asked his disciples, Who do men say the son of man is? And they said Some say John the Baptist, others say Elijah, and others Jeremiah or one of the prophets. He said to them, "But who do you say that I am?" Simon Peter replied, "You are the Christ, the Son of the living God." And Jesus answered him, "blessed are you, Simon Bar-Jona! For flesh and blood has not revealed this to you, but my Father who is in heaven. And I tell you, you are Peter, and on this rock I will build my church, and the powers of death shall not prevail against it. I will give you the key's to the Kingdom of heaven, and whatever you bind on earth shall be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven." Then he strictly charged the disciples to tell no one that he was the Christ.
Jesus began to show his disciplesthat he must go to Jerusalem and suffer many things from the elders and chief priests and scribes, and be killed, and on the third day be raised. And Peter took him and began to rebuke him saying, "God forbid, Lord! this shall never happen to you." But he turned and said to Peter, "Get behind me, Satan! You are a hindrance to me; for you are not on the side of God, but of men." Then Jesus told his disciples, "If any man would come after me, let him deny himself and take up his cross and follow me. For whoeverwould save his life will lose it, and whoever loses his life for my sake will find it. For whatwill is profit a man, if he gainsthe whole world and forfeits his life? Or what shall a man give in return for his life? fFor the Son of man is to come with his angels in the glory of his Father, and then he will repay every man for what he has done."

History of Slavery
You know about Rosa Parks you know everything you need to know or ever want to know about the true evels of slavory. You know it's one of the worst scars on a Republican, you know it still tares us apart. You know all of those things are true and you know there right. When it comes to civil rights it's a cake. I want to tell you about this cake and how the cake is made. Our country has done some horrific things. Do you know that this cake is pretty much perfect, but is that true? What's true? You have to cut the cake and take the piece out and look at it to see all the layers. All the layers of the past to see how this was made up. What layer is good and what layer is bad and what are the ingredience so we'll know in the future so things won't happen like that again.
I have four hundred years to cover so lets get started. It's like Thomas Jefferson said if a nation expects to be ignerant and free in a state of civilization it expects what never was and never will be. You can not take my word for it, you can't take the word of posts, you can't take the word of text books, you must do your own homework. This is your country, this is your history! Read, and read people who disagree with each other, you find the trueth. It's Imperative for the repulic.
Manifest Destiny is a perversion of divine providence. And the four major forces Commerce, Religion, Government, and Science there all good but when they collude there is trouble. All of these forces turned against the native Americans, our founders liked the native Americans. But then we needed land. The government needed to expand. We needed to make money on it. Religion was telling people well they're savages. They're not quite as whole. Same thing with science they colluded all for the goal for making money or for the best for the collective. Well I want to talk about slavery in the 17th century. We all learned about slavery in school we all know the horrors of it. The fact that Whites enslaved blacks builds on the idea that all men are created equal is beyond hypocritical we know that. So how did it happen? We know it's a national Tragedy. We also know tthe treasure that is Abraham Lincon. We know how it ended with the cival war. But does anyone know how slavery started? We know the ending, how did it start? I mean nobody came in and said hey everybody lets have slaves. It doesn't sound like that could happen. The fact is that it started small and it became one of the worst scars in American history and global history. In the early colonial America it wasn't slavery, it was Indentured servitude.
What is Indentured servitude? Well indentured servitude isn't the same as slavery. There's some important differences here. It shares many of the same things we have today with illegal immigration. I believe that illegal immigration is modern day slavery, but thats not quite right. Illegal immigration the way it's happening now is more like indentured servitude. If your an illegal working in the New York you'll barely get paid enough to rent a bed not a room a bed. For 8 hours and someone else is going to rent that same bed for the next 8 hours. You have enough time to go sleep in it and go back to the mercy of your employer. You don't have any real rights. The governments not going to help you. No one's going to help you because you don't exist, you're not in the records. In theory indentured servitude is like that but indentured servitude promised a light at the end of the tunnel. Because after your time with the master was up you got what were called at the time freedom dues.
That was usually a little bit of land and a gun. the most important part of freedom dues was freedom. Indentured servitude was a common practice at the time around the globe at the time. Everybody was using this Indentured servitude. It was like slavery but not quite and it's not an American problem it's a human problem that happened all over the world. Now there were criterion on witch people were used as early indentured servants.
But here's what's not taught if I asked was it a white man or a black man as the master and the indentured servant? You would say, well the criteria at the beginning was not based on color it was based on creed. it was non-Christians that were used as servants. Collonists didn't identify them selves as white, they identified them selves as Christians. Whites, Blacks, you name it they were all used for this earliest form of slavery. If an indentured servant broke a contract they got the same punishment regardless of color. If an indentured servant just said I exept Jesus they could get out. Now this is bad but this isn't slavery so how did it happen?
Massachusetts was the first state to legalize and recognize slavery other states soon followed. Why? because it was profitable. Like Verginia. Now do you know who owned the first state sponsored slave in America? His name was Anthony Johnson. He was a black man. Can you believe that? How did a Black man own a Black man? before he was an owner he was an indentured servant. He worked in Verginia in 1621 his name was Antonio. It was recorded in a census it just recorded his first name and his race. He wasn't a slave he was an indentured servant. He worked on a Tabacco farm and his master gave him own plot of land and he prefected his skills on that plot of land for 15 years on that plantation. And during that time he married and had four children. After that time Antonio negotiated and bought his own freedom and thats when he dicided he was going to become an owner. Then he changed his name to Anthony Johnson and in 1640 Anthony and his wife bought a plot of land and hired not slaves because there weren't slaves he hired indentured servants.
Now that same year in another place there was a court case that involved three indentured servants who had excaped there were three. Two white guy's and a black guy. Now these guy's ran away they exapt and they were caught. Two of them had their servatude extended for four years and the third one had his servatude extended for life. Can you guess witch one got it extended for life? Witch means you can't buy your freedom so you become a slave. It was the Black man. Well why did the two white guy's get only four years and the black guy got life? The oldest story of time, this was the beginning of slavery. He was black, and this was the beginning of the real nightmare that took a long time to get out.
Now Anthony had his indentured servant his name was John Caster. Well John Caster who was also black complained to a court that Anthony unfarely extended his terms of servatude. the court emancipated John Caster and said your a free man you can go. But Anthony went back and tried to convince the court that Caster belonged to him and should be his for life. He won the court case believe it or not and Caster became a slave. I tell you this story to show you that its a human problem it's not a white problem or a black problem man will enslave man any time when he can. This is a warning sign it's happened through out history it's one of the layers of cake. Wait a minute wait a minute any man can do it. Do you know where the word slave came from?
The slavic people in central Europe. It didn't become race until much much later. Now this is horrible but it's about to get really bad. We all ways have to come back to the formula. When they collude your introuble., commerce, government, religion, and science. We have to go to Tabacco. Tabacco worth alot of money. It was a skill set that the english were familiar with but they weren't good at it at all. The people that were good at it were the indentured servants. They spent there whole time doing it and they had a chance to buy their way out if they could do it well. Yet the collonies depended on this just like they tell us now we're dependant on Illegal immagrants. I mean if they can make your tabacco cheaper or your salad cheaper there will allways be somebody that will take advantage of it.
So at the time the collonies were struggling economacally so the pressure started to mount to produce more tabacco and more tabacco. There's a crisis sound familiar. At the same time the collonies argued that freeing the indenured servants was causing a problem. It was a threat to property owners. They said that it was to costly. They couldn't keep up. These guy's would leave then commerce would be hurt because there was so much turn over and they had to spend to much money. Witch made tabacco more costly witch hurt the economy. So restrictions started being placed because commerce was hurt so government started putting more restrictions on. They placed restrictions on owning land and that caused the indentured servants to become upset because wait a minute thats our way out. Well these guy's started taking to the streets and setting fires. Of course in stead of moving the collonies to regect the horrific nature of servatude and move tored freedom because peoples dallars were at stake they went the other way. You know whats strange here I think this was our first tea party. The master was taking to much from the everyday people. It was the first time we saw the attitude of manifest destiny as well. If they could do anything they could take the land from the servants.
In 1662 Virinia took one of the last steps on the road to true evil. They in acted a law that said all children born into the colony to a slave mother would be enslaved. So now not only were you a slave but that slave past it down from generation to generation. All based on color. By the way lets go back here to Anthony Johnson. How did it end for Anthony Johnson the freed indentured servant who then was an owner of another black man. He died in 1670. What happened to his land the Jury had to discide what to do with it. the land Johnson left behind could be cesed by the government because he was by quote an allien.
I have four hundred years to cover so lets get started. It's like Thomas Jefferson said if a nation expects to be ignerant and free in a state of civilization it expects what never was and never will be.

Meet the New Human Family

A single unforgettable image comes to mind when we ponder human origins: a coaching ape slowly standing and morphing in a tall, erect human male poised to conquer every bit of habitable land on this planet. We walk this earth-we, this unparalleled experiment in evolution-reflexively assuming we are the crown of creation.
But the ancient of man picture is looking as dated as the flat earth. A series of scientists and technological breakthroughs have altered much of our fundamental understanding of human understanding of human evalution. In the new view, the path to homo sapians was amazingly dilatory and indirect. Along the way, our planet witnessed many variations of the human form, multiple migrations out of Aferca, interspecies trysts, and extinctions that ultimatly wiped out all hominid species exept one.
Unexpected fossil finds keep showing us an ever-expanding variety of human and prehuman species. Probably the most stunning of these recent discoveries is Ardipithecus ramidus, an ancestor who displayed a fantastical mosaic of ape and human traits. A. ramidus apparently climbed trees but also walked upright some 4.4 million years ago-more than half a million years before the long accepted origin of bipedalism.
Our ideas about later human evolution, meanwhile, having been shattered by the remains of a tiny, novel human species with a small but intricatly folded brain. Called homo floresiensis and nicknamed the "hobie" people, this species found in Indonesia rewrites the scientific story of how humans migrated out of Aferca and came to populate the whole world. The hobbits overlapped in time and space with homo sapiens, showing that even in relatively recent history more than one human species shared our planet-a situation evocative of the colorful world.
The emerging field of paleogenetics has brought perhaps the most surprising news of all. Using DNA sequencing, sientists have learned that anatomically modern humans interbred with homo na=eanderthalensis or the Neanderthals, probably around 60,000 years ago in the Middle East, before they fanned out to populate Europe and Asia. We not only share the planet with our cousinsbut share our DNA as well. Today 1 to 4 percent of the genome for population living outside Aferca is Neanderthal. Asimilar form of genetic analysis has also just revealed an entiryely new human group, previously unknown: the Denisovans, cousin to Neanderthals. All we have of them is a 50,000 year old pinky finger and most of a molar, found in a cave in Denisova, siberia. But those fragments were enough to determine that humans living in New Guinea today carry nearly 5 percent Denisovan DNA.
as anthropologists useing all the latest tools-genomics, computer analisis and increasingly sopisticated imaging-to extend deep secrets from the latest fosil finds, they are replacing the ancient of man with captivating new picture of human family. It edges us to decively closer to understand ing not only where we came from but also what made us so much more successful than other, superfiecially similar primates.

the Wickedness of mankind
![](https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhW9Bb6MWonj7udWOlnLkmgBoCkvf0VPGpzx1AHeencP88rW0Tixz2vT1mZue_w6tyADY6TVGTuZWI88XA_8qIfeFwrZ8RlRr_leGGDXy-UfVGamaUd6bc3ngsWA3OMZiaOBlgJrFw_tX0/s320/inca-indians-800X800.jpg)
When mankind had spread all over the world, and girls were being born, some of the heavenly beings saw that these girls were beautiful, so they took the ones they liked.
Then the Lord said "I will not allow people to live forever; they are mortal. From now on they will live no longer than 120 years."
In those day's and even later, there were giants on the earth who were descendants of human women and the heavenly beings. They were the great heroes and famous men of long ago. When the Lord saw how wicked everyone on earth was, and how evil their thoughts were all the time, he was sorry that he had made them and put them on earth. He was so filled with regret that he said "I will wipe out these people that I have created, and the animals, and the birds, because I am sorry I made any of them." But the Lord was pleased with Noah.
This is the story of Noah. He had three sons, Shem, Ham, and Japheth. Noah had no falts and he was the only good man of his time. He lived in fellowship with God, but everyone else was evil in God's sight, and violence had spread everywhere. God looked at the world and saw that it was evil, for the people were all living evil lives.
God said to Noah "I have decided to put an end to all mankind. I will destroy them completely, because the world is full of their violent deeds. Build a boat for yourself out of goood tember; make rooms in it and cover it with tar inside and out. Make it 450 feet long, 75 feet wide, and 45 feet high. Make a roof for the boat and leave a space of 18 inches between the roof and the sides. Build it with three decks and put a door in the side.
I am going to going to send a flood to destroy every living being. Every living thing will die but I will make a covenant with you. Go in the boat with your wife and sons and their wives. Take into the boat male and female of every kind of animal and of every kind of bird, in order to keep them alive. Take along all kinds of food for you and for them. Noah did everything that God commanded. The Lord said to Noah, "Go into the boat with your whole family; I have found that you are the only one in all the world who does what is right. Take with you seven pairs of each kind of ritually clean animal, but only one pair, but only one pair of every unclean animal, every creaping thing of the ground two of every kind shall come into the ark. And Noah did all that the Lord commanded him.
Then the Lord said "I will not allow people to live forever; they are mortal. From now on they will live no longer than 120 years."

And Noah did all that the Lord commanded him.
Noah was six hundered years old when the flood of waters came upon the earth. And Noah and his Wife and his sons and his sons wives went into the ark to escape the waters of the floods. Of clean animal and of animals that are not clean, and of birds, and of everything that creeps on the ground two and two male and female went into the ark with Noah as God has commanded Noah. And after seven day's the waters of the flood came upon the earth.
In the six hunderedth year of Noah's life, on the second month, on the seventeenth day of the month, on that day all the fountains of the great deep burst fourth, and the windows of the heavens we opened. And rain fell on the earth forty day's and forty nights. On the very same day Noah and his sons Ham and Shem and Japheth and Noah's wife and Noah's three wives of his sons with him entered the ark, they and every beas,t according to their kind, and all the live stock according to their kinds, and every creeping thing that creeps on the earth according to it's kind, and of every bird according to it's kind, every wings creature.
They went into the ark with Noah two and two of all flesh in witch was a breath of life. And those that entered male and female went in as God has commanded him. And God shut him in.
The flood continued forty day's on the earth. The waters increased and bore up the ark, and it rose high above the earth. The waters prevailed and increased greatly on the earth, and the ark floated on the face of the waters. And the waters prevailed mightily that all the high mountains under the heavens were covered. The waters prevailed covering the mountains fifteen cubits deep. And all flesh died that moved on the earth, birds, livestock, beasts, all swarming creatures that swarm on the earth, and all mankind. Everything that was on dry land in whose nostrils was the breath of life died. He blotted out every living thing of the face of the ground man, animal, creeping things and birds of the heavens. They were blotted out from the earth. Only Noah was left and those that were with him in the ark. And the waters prevailed 150 day's.

THE ORIGINAL CREATION Genisis (1:2)
The book of the Beginnings start with the creation of the universe, and the author accounts for it in one sentence "In the beginning God created the heven and the earth." He says nothing as to the details of how or when but just in the far-off beginning, however remote that may be God created all things.
Some hold that after the original creation of verse 1 there was a pre-Adamic catastrophe plunging the world into the condition of chaos discribed in verse 2. If such was the case. the time interval between the two verses could be millions of years long, accounting for whatever are the geologic ages of the earth's history.
The other view is that verse 2 describes not disorderly chaos but anunformed mass of material, wich God then proceeded to takeand form on the creative days according to the predetermined design.
The Sixth and seventh
Let us notice the order of events on the six great days as though we were watching the transformation taking place before our very eyes. Fist, we see the earth, wich was without form and void, and the spirit of God brooding over it, as though He were looking out over the vast expanse, meditating. On the first day God said, "Let there be light" and instantly there was light. The light was separated from the darkness. God called the former Day; the latter He called Night.
On the Second Day God formed the firmament, the great expanse divided waters that were about it from waters under it. The expanse He called Heaven.
On the third Day there was a gathering together of the waters under the heavenly expanse into what God called Seas, and the dry land wich He called Earth appeared, forming the continents and Islands. Soon afterwards green grass and trees were made to appear.
On the fourth day the lights in the firmament of heaven, that is, the sun, the moon, and stars, were made to function.

Government forces stormed the town on a Friday killing at least 12 people, according to Baqouba hospital officials, although Ashraf residents said as many as 34 died.

2012 The ancient Maya
![](https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjLVOoRLUTsxCSMqZ6nZ2FJX0dESUgimatwVE40QCHbwHRkqFRs9GtqKqZp_z329H5ejjSPkfib3jfdrCcDbNYMqqS6M53we2jIQb8OsqXFzm8uW2ZSOOp6G3K09B-qDDe1pBXLOtjFvmY/s320/canstock5356860.jpg)
In 2012, THE GRAND odometer of Maya timekeeping known as the Long Count, an accumulation of various smaller time cycles, will revert to zero and a new cycle of 1,872,000 days (5,125,37 years) will begin. As long awaited Y12 date nears, tales of what will happen have proliferated on the Internet, in print, and in movies. As a result, on December 21, 2012 thousands of pilgrims, many in organized "sacred tour" groups, will flock to chichen Itzi, Tikal, and a multitude of other celebrated sites of ancient America. There they will wait for a sign from the ancient Maya marking the end of the world as we know it. Wil it be a blow up or a black out? Doom or delight ? That depends on on which of the New Age prophets, an eclectic collection of self-appointed seers and mystics one chooses to believe. Many of the predictions begin in outer space. it's known that there is a black hole at the center of the Milky Way, and that in 2012 the sun will align with the plane of the galaxy for the first time in 26,000 years. Then according to the doomsayers, the black hole will throw our solar systemm out of kilter. But there's also good news coming from Y12 visionaries. Some say that rather than cataclysm, we're due for a sudden, cosmically timed awakening: we will all join an enlightened collective consciousness that will resolve the worlds problems. The winter solstice sun is "slowly moving toward the heart of the Galaxy," on December 21 (or 23, depending on how you align calendars), when the sun passes
"Great Rift" a dark streak in the Milky Way the Maya "Womb of Creation," the world will be transformed. Then we will reconnect with our cosmic heart.
