  1. I don't have any "issues" with discussing mental health, ...38 years ago my mind "snapped," a carry over from my Psychedelic drug use as a teenager back in the 60's, ...the Mental Health people diagnosed me as schizophrenic, paranoid, depressive, and were going to hospitalize me, ...however in God's grace He intervened and for some unknown reason,...they allowed me to be an outpatient, ...if I promised to faithfully take their drugs, the first night I "took" their drugs and I started to "come on" like when I dropped Acid, ...no more drugs for me, ...a few days later a friend took me to church and they gave me a Bible with the words of Jesus in red, I read those words over and over and over, and after 18 months of "reading" those words in red and at the same time of "learning" how to "fit" back into society they "declared" me sane, ...so, ...what do you want to discuss?
  2. I hope you don't mind waiting 'til after the quarantine, ...my boss sells boats so I'll have to install a GPS direction steering unit on it.
  3. Sure do, but no limo, ...but years ago, ...while I was bored I built a Puddle Duck Racer, ...will that work?
  4. I must say for me it's not the man that "impacted" me, but the Holy Spirit speaking through them, I have "listened" to and been taught by some of the heavy hitters mentioned above, ...and also the "little" guys that have left everything behind and went out into the world to preach the Gospel, names no one would recognize, ...but the man who "impacted" me the most, ...it was not only his teaching, but his character, ...the Love that poured out of him, ...Jesus said it best, "Out of your innermost being will will flow rivers of living water," that was what "impacted" me the most! Pastor Chuck Smith
  5. I laughed when I saw the title, ...I thought the OP was referring to the "inerrant" Word of God, ...but reading through the thread makes me laugh even more... Thanks
  6. I was "told" by my Heavenly Father to come here in '90, He gave me three conditions, ...to come on a one way ticket, not to have any legal documents that would allow me to stay longer than the three month tourist visa that came with my plane ticket and to not "accept" any money for any church or any individual. It's "impossible for a non-French citizen to come here on a one way ticket, ...but He provided one for me. I lived here with a Carte de Sejour (green card) for 6 years and one of the requirements for non-French citizens was they had to show their return trip airline ticket to be given a Carte de Sejour and to renew it every year, ...they never asked me for it. I hit the shores without a penny in my pocket, ...my belongings arrived two weeks later with the tools I had packed and the very next day Father provided me with work and He has "provided" me with work every day for the last three decades. I was living on the sister island of Tahiti called Moorea, eight miles away by ferry, in October of '94 He told me to go to church on Tahiti, ...even told me what church to go to, I obeyed and took the ferry Sunday morning and when I arrived on Tahiti I asked a cab to take me to the church, I sat down on a bench on the right side of the building, ...not really know what I was doing there, ...then after the service started a young woman walked in through the door on the right and sat down in the front. Father told me, "This is the woman I have chosen for you to marry." After the service was over I went back to my island and immediately asked Father for "confirmation" from His Word, He gave me this verse: Whoso findeth a wife findeth a good thing, and obtaineth favour of the LORD. Pro 18:22 That really blew me away because I wasn't looking for a wife, ...I thought I was a "confirmed" bachelor, so I asked Him again for another "confirmation!" I went back to that church the next Sunday and the next and the next, I "created" quite a "commotion," an "American" in their church, ...then one Sunday morning a sister came running in and was looking for me, she came "literally" running at me shouting, the whole church heard her, "Brother, brother, the Lord gave me a verse for you," in French, ...at that time I didn't speak French, but the Holy Spirit translated it for me, "...Celui qui trouve une femme trouve le bonheur; C'est une grâce qu'il obtient de l'Éternel. Proverbs 18:22" My second confirmation from my Father that I would of never understood unless He, Himself translated it for me! At the first my "fiancee" (Eve) and I spoke to one another through a French-English dictionary, ...finally when I understood enough she told me she had been praying for 12 years specifically, ...for an American husband, that played an instrument and loved working with children, ...that describes me to a tee! And I now have French citizenship, ...so instead of kicking me out of the country, ... they can put me in prison. LOL Dear precious sister, ...I hope you can see from how Father has "worked" in my life and as an "example" of how He "takes" care of His children, ...those that"chose" to continually dwell in His secret high place. Thanks for telling me about your situation, I will be praying for you and may I humbly suggest in brotherly Love to read, read and reread, meditate on and study every worn in Psalm 91 and let our Father comfort and encourage you as He is holding you in His arms during this "testing" that has come upon the "inhabitants" of the world. Lord bless
  7. If this wasn't so sad, it would be amusing... Like all of the arm chair quarterbacks telling us how they would of run the game on Monday morning. So ya'll, children of God, ...would you please tell me what you would do if you were in the same situation as I am? I live on an island in the middle of the South Pacific ocean, do you understand what that means, ...it means that everything ya'll take for granted on the shelves of your stores, ...comes to us either in container ships or by airplane, ...that means everything, ...everything, including masks, disinfectant products, ...food, has to pass through Customs, ...that means everything in the containers and on the airplanes are listed very precisely for Customs. When the world's media fueled hysteria hit here in the first week of March, ...not many were worried, went into "panic" mode over it, ...then a prominent political came back from France and walked around in public and during government meetings for four days and then was tested positive for the virus, ...that's when the media here stared their "panic," ....that's when the government "seized" all of the masks, disinfectant products and what ever else associated with the virus at Customs, saying they were for the hospitals, and first responders, but, ...but, before they "seized" everything they were walking around "without" wearing masks because there weren't any in the stores to buy, "all" of the stock had been sold, ...there wasn't any left to sell, ...however "now" all of the government "politicians" are on the TV "wearing" the masks that were "supposedly" for the hospitals and first responders, telling us to wear mask and wash our hands, ...but, we the "population" will have to wait three months before the next container ships arrive with new supplies! So, dear brothers and sisters in Christ, ...do you think Father Loves you more than me and has provided what you need and left me for the wolves? Or is it possible He has "provided" another way for all of us? Truthfully, ...right or wrong about this virus doesn't really concern me, I'm just telling what I have heard from "reputable" born again brothers who are up to date. How sad, ...it breaks my heart, that so many of my brothers and sisters in Christ "know" so much about the "virus" and so little about our Father's promises to us in His Word, ....but then this is what He has said: He that dwelleth in the secret place of the most High... Those that "continually" live in the secret place of our God Almighty, ...Father is telling us some do and some only visit when they are in crisis. I've been living in that secret place for over three decades, ...what I'm trying to tell you, remind you is, the "veil" has been torn, ...from the top to the bottom, that means Father Himself has torn it so that "all" of His children can come and He will deliver us and cover us with His feathers like a mother hen from the fowler and the noisome pestilence, ...that means from under His "feathers" we can say: ...He is my refuge and my fortress: my God; in Him will I trust. I find it very interesting this verse tells us it was "planned" by men who are being "influenced" from the demonic realm: Surely He shall deliver thee from the snare of the fowler, and from the noisome pestilence. And it anyone doesn't know what a "fowler" is or the meaning of the word "noisome" they need to study the Word to find out. It amazes me that any of His children would/could think that our Loving Heavenly Father would "allow" the enemy of our souls to "devise" a weapon that "could" harm us, ...I guess another "result" of this virus is we need to tear out this verse from our Bibles. No weapon that is formed against thee shall prosper; Isa 54:17 So I repeat my question, ...what would ya'll do if you don't/won't have any masks or disinfectant products for the next three months? Find some way to make them from other materials, ...or go on high and let Father "cover" you so that you too can say from your heart: ...He is my refuge and my fortress: my God; in Him will I trust. Lord bless
  8. So here's the latest numbers from WHO, CDC, ECDC, NHC. Confirmed in the United States, 69,684. Total deaths from the virus, 1,049. If my math is correct, that is a death ratio of 1.5%..... So yes be prudent, the President's actions seem to be working. Here are the stats for French Polynesia. Confirmed, 25 Hospitalized, 2 Deaths, 0... I seem to remember a childhood story about a chicken running around screaming, "The sky is falling, the sky is falling!" There are 195 "recognized" countries by the UN in the World, there are 148 countries reporting people infected, that means there are 47 countries that have "not" been affected, ...maybe the "sky is not falling!" Now for the rest of the story, ...Manufacturing companies in Northern Italy sold their businesses to China, ...China sent workers to run and operate the plants, these "workers" are from the city of Wuhan, China, ...they went home for Chinese New Year, ...were "infected" and went back to Italy, ...and that's how the virus spread so rapidly through Europe, "because" of the CE open borders resolution. The "point zero" of the virus in the city of Wuhan has been "positively" identified as a fish market in the city, ...so don't be caught up in the "foolish" hysteria of someone eating bats, ...and the Chinese "experts" determined it "started" from contaminated "money," ...the "experts" are debating if is was on purpose, or by accident. The "Corona" virus has been around since the 60's, but it only spread through human contact, ...what the Chinese Biological Warfare Laboratory in Wuhan did is alter "it" to be able to spread through the air. I wear a "mask" for dust when I work, ...it's much more "safer" with a rubber gasket on the inside edge that causes my face to sweat and actually binds itself to my skin, it's rated for sanding lead based paint, and that's far more "protection" than any paper "mask" bought from a pharmacy. However, I do take it off when I'm not cutting or sanding wood, ...that means, even though I'm "isolated" in my home and shop, we have "windows" in both and the virus can come through those windows and "infect" me! Like I have said in other posts, I obey the government and their rules, ...but my Faith and Trust is in God's promises to me, ...the just lives by his faith. What I don't understand is how can faith and trust in a mast, with the "known" facts about this virus, ...given someone more "peace" and "comfort" than trusting in our Heavenly Father? Isn't that like me 'trusting" in my power tools to accomplish the work in completing the cabinets, rather than the Holy Spirit who is guiding, directing and enabling me to do the work? History tells us when the Bubonic plague was rampant and spread throughout Europe, that the Jews were the least infected, ...the secular world accredits it to their dietary Laws, ...yeah right! Father was "protecting" His chosen people... Maybe, just maybe, if there was more quality time spent with our Lord, ...instead of many hours on the internet, His children could understand "His" plans for them during this virus. Not bashing or "social" shaming, ...just saying... Lord bless
  9. Dear sister, ...all I'm doing is using good listening skills and repeated back to you in my own words what I "thought" I heard you say so that I will know if I'm understanding you correctly. The title of this thread is "Social distancing?, Not in my Bible." Well neither is "Social shaming," in "my" Bible, ..."shaming" a brother or sister because they have been taught by the Holy Spirit to walk with their Lord in different way than the ones doing the "shaming." The Holy Spirit gave us "how" we are to walk in Faith with Him. ...the just shall live by his faith. Hab 2:4 Apparently, ...He considered it "so" important to/for us that He wrote three commentaries on the verse. The Book of Romans explains to us "who" are the just. The Book of Galatians explains to us "how" the just are to live. And the Book of Hebrews explains to us "what" our faith is to be like. All three of those books contain the verse from Habakkuk, ......the just shall live by his faith. Dear sister, my Bible says, By this shall all men know that ye are my disciples, if ye have love one to another. John 13;35 Lord bless and may our Father and our Lord keep you safe, secure and healthy in their hands.
  10. Here's what I have found in English, ...actually it showed up in my email this morning. PTL I've listened to this man many years ago, ...but there were so many breaks asking for money that I haven't listened to him in years. It seems to be a teaching on what we were talking about, ...vaccinations with microchips implanted in the body. http://www.worldviewweekend.com/tv/video/coronavirus-mandatory-human-chipping-bill-gates-rockefeller-foundation-cashless-society I haven't listened to it, so please, if you do, tell me if it's something worthy to watch. Lord bless
  11. Speaking of Proverbs.. Trust in the LORD with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding. Pro 3:5 Lord bless
  12. Okay beloved, and anything else I have to say about this can be found by all in the Word of God. Lord bless
  13. President Macron is a political "nobody" who was "given" the French Presidency by the Rothschild family, ...he's their puppet, ...hand trained by them.
  14. Are you saying "believing" and "trusting" in what the Word of God teaches His children, ...is delusional???
  15. Dear sister, ...and I don't understand why you think I'm in danger??? Here's what Father has "promised" me: Thou shalt not be afraid for the terror by night; nor for the arrow that flieth by day; Nor for the pestilence that walketh in darkness; nor for the destruction that wasteth at noonday. A thousand shall fall at thy side, and ten thousand at thy right hand; but it shall not come nigh thee. Only with thine eyes shalt thou behold and see the reward of the wicked. Psa 91:5-8 Since this "promise is in His Word, don't you think it's available to ALL of His children??? May I humbly suggest you read Psalms 91, ...the first thing you will notice is it's not like the other Psalms that are directed to certain people, ...that means it's promises is open for all of His children. And beloved, I do have "sense," ...I've been reading the Proverbs for years starting the first day of the month with the first chapter of the Proverbs, 2nd day, 2nd chapter, 3rd day, 3rd chapter etc. ...The wise see the danger and hide themselves from it; ...is that not what I doing according to the Word of God? He that dwelleth in the secret place of the most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty. Psa 91:1 I'm "dwelling/hiding" in the secret place of my God. Thou shalt not be afraid for the terror by night; nor for the arrow that flieth by day; Nor for the pestilence that walketh in darkness; nor for the destruction that wasteth at noonday. Psa 91:5:6 Father tells His children to NOT be afraid by/of this virus, because "He" will protect us. The Love of God in me has absolutely no desire to "slap" anyone, ...but rather, my heart's desire is for my brothers and sisters in Christ to "believe" what our Heavenly Father has told us., The Holy Spirit has told us to not be "conformed" to this world, ...and the world is panicking, but we are to be "transformed" by the renewing of our minds. Our Father's promise of "dwelling" in His secret place is not to/for the secular world, but "only" for His kids... Lord bless
  16. There is a line by us unseen, That crosses ev’ry path, The hidden boundary between, The hidden boundary between God’s patience and His wrath. O! Where is this mysterious bourn By which our path is crossed, Beyond which God Himself hath sworn, Beyond which God Himself hath sworn That he who goes is lost? How far may we go in sin? How long will God forbear? Where does hope end? And where begin, Where does hope end? And where begin, The confines of despair? An answer from the skies is sent: “Ye that from God depart, While it is called today, repent, While it is called today, repent, And harden not your heart.” Over the years of his life this man “hardened” his own heart… Lord bless
  17. Dear sister, I wasn't talking about people here at Worthy, ...my reference to "here" was here in Tahiti. I get all kind of strange looks because I walk around not wearing a mask, ...to me this "panic" is just what Father said He would do, "shake" the world one last time. I look at it as an excellent "time" to share the Gospel with the panicking "religious," Sunday go to church people here. I personally believe the truth of this "virus" proves is it is man-made, and we can see it is being fueled by demonic intentions... Like I said, ...Father has made a promise to me, Psalms 91 and the "only" requirement to be "dwelling" in His "secret" place is to "believe" in Him. Then said they unto Him, What shall we do, that we might work the works of God? Jesus answered and said unto them, "This is the work of God, that ye believe on Him (Jesus) whom He (Father) hath sent." John 6:28-29 Beloved, ...John tells us that our Jesus is the written Word, the Logos: In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. John 1:1 Since Psalms 91 is a part of the "written" Word, ...Logos, ...then we need to "believe" it just as much as we "believe" the rest of the Word, ...Father doesn't want His children to pick and chose what "we" want to believe, ...He wants us to "believe" ALL of what He has said. May I humbly suggest you go to Father and ask Him if it's true, and let Him teach you, show you, hold you in His arms and let Him comfort you and Love on you... Lord bless
  18. Beloved sister, ...ain't no demon so stupid to come back and take on the Holy Spirit living inside of you! However, ...I've had a witch come on to my property and try to curse me twice, the first time during the day and the second time at night, ...the first time I was working in my cabinet shop and at first didn't really realize what she was doing, ...when it finally did sink in I just said "JESUS!" and she left in stark terror, ...her eyes literally bulging out of her face. The second time was at night and I awoke to her mumbling incantations at our front gate, I said "Jesus," but not in the force of the first time, ...rather like, "Again Lord?" ...and I heard her running away down the street and actually tripped and fell down, ...I bet that hurt! Remember dear one, ...Greater is He who is in us, ...than he who is in the world... Lord bless
  19. I read a scientific document many years ago that because of the winds on this earth, people living in the 20th century were "breathing" the same air as their great grandparents and even family members who had lived 100's and thousands of years ago. Now we know from our High School Physics class that atoms can not be destroyed, except in a Nuclear fusion, and we know there has not been too many. So then if there is someone affected in our neighborhood, city, county, state, there is a very great possibility we are breathing air they have exhaled, ...there is always a wind blowing. That means there are many who are "infected," but not "showing" any symptoms, so six feet or six yards, or six miles of "separation" is "not" going to protect us. The "only" true "protection is in our God, ...Jehovah Rapha, ...the "God Who heals us," and He has been "healing" us since our conception, ...so why worry now? If you logically and rationally think about it, the "mask" is allowing the air we breath to pass through it, ...if they need a microscope to see and identify the virus, ...how is a "mask" going to filter out the atomic particles of the virus, ...I wear a mask in my cabinet shop to filter out dust, ...but I'm still breathing air, ...beside what I have observed with the people wearing masks here is there are gaps around the edges of the masks that allows unfiltered air in... Yes as children of God we obey the government, until their mandate goes against the Word of God, ...so we "respect" and "obey" the government, ...but our faith and confidence is in our God. I respect and obey the government sanctions here, ...but I "tell" people my "confidence" is NOT in a mask, ...but in my God Lord bless
  20. I tend to look at it differently, ...my Father gave me a promise: Thou shalt not be afraid for the terror by night; nor for the arrow that flieth by day; Nor for the pestilence that walketh in darkness; nor for the destruction that wasteth at noonday. A thousand shall fall at thy side, and ten thousand at thy right hand; but it shall not come nigh thee. Only with thine eyes shalt thou behold and see the reward of the wicked. Because thou hast made the LORD, which is my refuge, even the most High, thy habitation; Psa 91:5-9 With all of the numbers and statistics floating around, ...I have yet to hear one of the many pastors I listen to report one of the true lambs in his church has died from the virus... And Abraham drew near, and said, Wilt thou also destroy the righteous with the wicked? Gen 18:23 That be far from thee to do after this manner, to slay the righteous with the wicked: and that the righteous should be as the wicked, that be far from thee: Shall not the Judge of all the earth do right? Gen 18:25 And we all know God "saved/preserved" righteous Lot from His wrath! 2 Pet 2:8 Lord bless
  21. I believe this to be the answer: But if our Gospel be hid, it is hid to them that are lost: In whom the god of this world hath blinded the minds of them which believe not, lest the light of the Glorious Gospel of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine unto them. 2 Cor 4:3_4 Lord bless
  22. It was on the French news, and we have 8 French TV emissions, so I don't know how to send you to the "exact" station, ...the French number their stations, ...France 2, France 3, France 4, France 5, France 6, France 7, and France 0, and there is a German station "Arte," that is translated into French. France 3 is continuous news 24 hours a day, the rest have 30 minutes of news in the morning, at noon and in the evening at 20hr, 8:00 PM, I know they say we can read the archives, but I never have, so I don't know how to tell you how to access them, ...Macron is "god," so if you can find a French newspaper for the weekend you will be able to read it.
  23. I tend to agree with you. Some years ago there was a"another" virus and President Macron declared mandatory "vaccination" for all French citizens, ...in France and all of it's colonies, ...it didn't work, many refused including myself. Now we have the "entire" World media "creating" hysteria and pandemonium telling us it's a "pandemic," and with this "scare" tactic working, ...the masses are falling in line like sheep to the slaughter. Yes it is a "dress rehearsal," ...for what we read in the Word, ...and many will follow the Beast and the Anti-Christ! Over the weekend Macron said there will be a "mandatory" injection of the vaccine for the virus, ...and included in the shot will be a "chip," ...for all French citizens! Jesus said, "when you see these things," ...we've been "seeing" the physical "things" He was talking about for a decade or two, ...but what we are "seeing" today is the curtain has been pulled back and we see the stage has be set, all of the "props" are in place, and it's just about "SHOWTIME," ...the "only" thing stopping the production is, ...the "Restrainer," His Church, is still in/on the planet... Be comforted with what we are witnessing, ...Jesus told us the generation that "sees" the fig tree bud, ...we are "that" generation, the fig tree is the national symbol of the nation of Israel, and Israel was "born again" as a nation on May 18, 1948, ...reality is we are witnessing that, ...but on top of that we are "witnessing" the world being "prepared" for accepting the AC, ...that's a double whammie, ...we are witnessing the nation of Israel becoming a world power in just over 70 years, we are "witnessing" the players of the Eze 38 prophecy all in place on the borders of Israel, ...and we can "see" the stage is set, the world is ready to "accept" the AC... ...so look up brothers and sisters, ...we are going home real soon! Lord bless
  24. Absolutely!!! I hear so many say, "They have lost...," ...that is so wrong, ...when something is lost we rarely ever find it again, ...in the so called "death" of a child of God the "only" thing that has "changed" is our relationship with them, they are still alive, ...actually much more than when they were with us, ...and they are not "lost," we know exactly "where" they are, ...reality is, we are in a "long distance" relationship with them... You are correct, we don't have to grieve like the rest of the world does, ...When Father created Adam in His image and likeness he was created "immortal" like God is immortal. What that means to all of us who are born in the "image" and "resemblance" of Adam outside of the Garden is we don't have a "file" to place "death" in, ...place it in the filing cabinet, close the drawer and, ...out of sight, out of mind. However, Father has given us His Holy Spirit and He can cover us with His "peace that goes beyond all human understanding," enabling us to live our lives in "hope" and glorifying our God through it to any who are watching us, ...hopefully they will ask why we are so different from the world and that will give us an to share our hope in our Lord, ...and the Gospel. No worries mate, ...if I gave that impression I apologize, ...that is certainly not what I believe... Jesus told us we would "know" them by their fruits, so in a non-judgmental way I just look for the fruit they exhibit and "live" in 24/7, ...are they of the flesh Gal 5:19-21, or are the of/from the Holy Spirit Gal 5:22-23? Also when their "fruit" is of/from the Holy Spirit, the Holy Spirit in me "testifies" with the Holy Spirit in them that we are brothers or sisters and the common bond between us is Love and our hearts are "knit" together. Another thing I have learned is when I meet a descendant of Abraham, one of the children of Israel, the Holy Spirit is like doing, "flip-flops" inside of me, ...and the Love I have for that person pouring out of my heart is overwhelming! Brother, I'm certain it does, ..from what you have said here in your reply... "out of the abundance of the heart, ...the mouth speaks," ...brother you are speaking the Truth! Lord bless
  25. Sure!!! Come on down!!! I hope you are not allergic to cats... However we are in quarantine for 15 days and top of that we only have one airport and it is "closed" for 30 days. Lord bless sister
