Bankers Waiting Till the End? 10/29/2009
Steve, I wanted to tell you this: One of my family members is the mayor. She and I were talking about the banks and she decided to ask her banker if the bank was safe because they are holding almost $8 Million of the city's money that she is responsible for. Anyway, she went in and talked to him and he "side stepped" and acted uncomfortable. She is a very direct person, so this made her a little uncomfortable. She kept directing the question and finally he said something really weird. He said "we are just waiting til the end." What?.... She said, "what is that supposed to mean?" and then he back stepped, side-stepped, and studdered all over the place and said, "I didn't mean it that way." Well, now we are really wondering about all this???? I had a thought I wanted to share with you about these "computer upgrades" at the banks: Maybe all these banks are actually doing upgrades because they all need to be on the same software or system when the bank holiday happens. Then when they revalue our money it can be across the board at the same time because everyone's using the same software or platform?

TRUSTING in HORSES” -by Coach Dave Daubenmire. Some trust in chariots, and some in horses: but we will remember the name of the LORD our God. Psalm 20:7 Sometimes when I sit down to pen a commentary I wish I didn’t have to. I don’t know why the Lord has laid this yoke upon me, but I try to be faithful to the gift and the calling that He has put upon my life. They are irrevocable you know, the gifts and callings of God, so I might as well embrace the work He has left on my desk. I can’t explain it but sometimes I feel like I have on a different set of glasses. Not rose-colored mind you, but more like binoculars that help me see things that are farther down the road. I can’t explain it, but I know it to be true. I have always been amazed by guys who can “fix things”, mechanically that is. I can spend all morning trying to figure out how to get my riding lawn-mower operational and then my brother- in-law pulls up, takes one look at the engine, and diagnosis the problem. It is his gift, and I sure wish I had it. But my gift is a little different. Although I have never been to seminary, or spent time at the feet of great theologians, the Lord has gifted me with the ability to “connect the dots” in regards to the application of Biblical principles as they relate to cultural issues. I think it makes some folks mad, especially the “credentialed pulpiteers.” I know how they feel. I have experienced the same thing with my brother-in-law. I’m the guy with all of the degrees yet I can’t figure out that the spark plug needs cleaned before the engine will start. Education without application is like tires without air. One without the other leaves one feeling a bit flat. (I’m still not sure I am making myself clear.) Solomon put it this way.”Wisdom is the principal thing; therefore get wisdom: and with all thy getting get understanding.” Wisdom is the application of knowledge. “Understanding” is the offspring of the union of application and knowledge. I remember praying a few years ago “Lord, help me see and understand things that others don’t see and understand.” I’ll let you be the judge of whether or not He answered that prayer. The solutions to the problems facing America are so clear to me. The cause/effect of our cultural collapse is so easy to diagnose. Like my brother-in-law has often said to me while working on a piece of my equipment, “Everything is connected together. All you have to figure out is where the chain is broken. If it isn’t working there has to be a reason. Just follow the trail.” Sorry to be simplistic, but that is how I feel about America. Everything is connected.but we refuse to follow the trail. So follow along with me as we lift up the hood, check out the spark plugs, and see if we can figure out how to get this baby running. It is my opinion that we are trying to replace the wrong parts. Pardon the corny phraseology, but we are putting the chariot before the horse. “Some trust in chariots, and some in horses: but we will remember the name of the LORD our God.” America’s problems are spiritual, they are not mechanical. We can not get out of this problem merely by changing the horses (parts). We have tried that cure before. Substituting Republicans for Democrats, or liberals for conservatives may change the direction the chariots are pulled but it gets us no closer to the finish line. Political parties and politicians are merely the horses that pull the chariot. Changing them has brought us nothing more than a false sense of hope. Every election we change a few of the horses, hope that things will straighten out, and then lament the fact that the stallions we put into office end up being nothing more than the same old nag. Trusting in horses has not worked. Although the word chariot conjures up thoughts of a carriage in which someone rides, a chariot was actually a weapon of war as demonstrated in this video of Charleton Heston in Ben Hur. In our American constitutional republic the constitution has become the chariot, the weapon of choice, for those who want to over-throw this nation. Many patriotic-Americans have labeled themselves “constitutionalists”, and are trusting in that great founding-document to win the war against an ever-expanding, all-powerful government. “If only they would follow the Constitution.” Although their intentions are good, the reality is that chariot (constitution) is prisoner to the horses and the direction that they choose to pull it. No matter how much we love to point out “original intent,” “separation of powers,” and “government of the people.” the chariot gets pulled in directions that it was never intended to go. The Constitution in which we trust is the very weapon that the horses uses to over-throw the will of the people. Extra-constitutional edicts such at “the separation between the church and state,” the “penumbras” of the constitution, and “equal protection” clauses have run the chariot over those whom it was created to protect. As long as horses are pulling the chariots there is no hope, and no sense of generational permanence in that document upon which our nation was founded. Allowing its clearly spelled-out principles to be changed at the whim of the latest I-know-better-than-you judge has caused this foundation stone to be crushed into sand. We all know what happens when one builds upon sinking sand. Trusting in chariots has led us into a swamp. The Constitution is not a stand-alone document. James Madison, the “Father of the Constitution” said, “Our Constitution was made only for a moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other.” George Washington said “It is impossible to rightly govern a nation without God and the Bible.” Some men trust in chariots… Recently I have been asked to speak at several “Tea-Parties” around these parts. Word has spread very quickly about the zeal, passion, and clarity with which I articulate The American View of our national dilemma. The hearts of men and women are moved as I paint the picture of the consequences of our national rejection of Jesus. But my impassioned plea for “remembering the Lord” has tugged on the bridle of the horses who are not “Christians.” Some of my recent “invitations” to speak have included a request to “tone down a bit” the “religious part” because some of the “coalition” does not hold my same “religious” views. You see, it is easy to change the horses, or fight with the chariot, than it is to harness the rebellious heart of individual men and women. Needless to say, I told them what they can do with the horse they rode in on. The god-haters have told us that our Constitution is a “living, breathing document” designed to change with the times. That attitude is the same one that gave us “living breathing” marriages and mortgage contracts. The US Constitution was a contract between a people and their Creator from whom the rights of the people had been endowed. A contract is only as good as the people who sign it. Funny isn’t it, our once solid American dollar is in a free fall because the gold that once under girded it has been removed. Remove the firm foundation and a building is destined for collapse. For over two centuries the ordinances of God were the pillars upon which this nation stood. Remove those supports and the Constitution is not worth the paper it was written on. “To the kindly influence of Christianity we owe that degree of civil freedom, and political and social happiness which mankind now enjoys. . . Whenever the pillars of Christianity shall be overthrown, our present republican forms of government, and all blessings which flow from them, must fall with them.” Jedidiah Morse I know what my brother-in-law would say. “Better firm up that foundation.” Nothing short of a spiritual transformation can save this nation. Some men trust in horses, some men trust in chariots.. We need to remember the name of the Lord. Does any national leader have the courage to say so? The Flag Flying High 10/20/2009
As I’m walking across the graveyard today. I see it off in the distance flowing in the breeze. It is the flag flying high. My son looked up at me and asked what does it mean? I looked down at my son and asked. Did you mean the flag floating in the breeze? The flag floating high for the whole world to see It represents all the brave American’s who gave their life for their country WHEN IS ENOUGH, ENOUGH? 10/20/2009
As I'm sitting here looking over the news articles today All that I keep seeing is these politician's keep taking our freedom's away By the day, By the hour I keep waiting for American's to make a stand To keep freedom in this great land. As the days and hours keep passing by I keep wondering, why When is enough, enough that American's get fed up? For these days keep passing and I keep waiting, watching, and praying. I look off in this distance and see this great cloud appear. It is that the American people no longer live in fear. They no longer fear the consequences that may arise Because, they have brave American's right by their side 1 by 1 and 2 by 2 this great awakening bleeds red, white, and blue. Hawk Much has already been written and broadcast regarding the controversy of the American Police Force deal to take over the Hardin, Montana Prison, its posing as the Hardin Police Force replete with Mercedes SUV's with decals saying Hardin Police Force, its planned massive expansion onto Crow Tribal Lands to create a Mercenary and Private Police Training Center, and the resultant controversies & wide public notoriety causing the Montana Attorney General to begin investigations of Capt. Michael Hilton and American Police Force dealings with the Two Rivers Authority. Steve Quayle, Alex Jones, the Billings Gazette, and the good and patriotic people of Montana have alerted and done yeoman's work to bring this potentially unconstitutional affair into the bright sunlight so that Americans can see a future where Foreign Mercenaries will no doubt be involved with policing and incarcerating them and perhaps foreign terrorists or anyone else designated as an insurgent or terrorist by the Federal and State Governments. One can read the Department of Homeland Security Report on domestic Terror Groups and its brother report from Missouri, the infamous MIAC Report which cited 2nd amendment advocates, Right to Life advocates, Constitutional Advocates, and even voters for Ron Paul and Chuck Baldwin as potential terrorists, to see just who might be placed behind the razor wire. Add in Swine Flu Vaccine refusers, President Obama's Top 25 Enemies List, and now journalists who refuse to burn their sources, as well as Bloggers. However, so much has been said that now the news cycle is beginning to see some spin attempts by PR flacks, local "boss hog" Politicians and elites, and even the Governor himself who assured Montanans that this was really about ....a card shark with many aliases, felony convictions, and potential fraudulent dealings with Hardin ........not any governmental conspiracy against the people. One could easily ask, "Where was the Governor, the Attorney General, the Montana Legislature, and the Montana Congressional delegation before Steve Quayle and Alex Jones sounded the alarm and the Billings Gazette took up the torch of good 1 rst amendment reporting and speech? " "Why didn't they follow these potentially fraudulent and unconstitutional proceedings and investigate them prior to the huge public outcry and media exposure? http://www.stevequayle.com/News.alert/08_ Hawk/091007.AFP.html THE GREATEST STRUGGLE 10/01/2009
BY: JAMES M. ROBERTSON As I look, off in the distance I can see a light shinning upon me. There is a voice that overcomes me. It says my love will always shine upon thee. For you must make a stand For you are given the greatest gift of any free man. That greatest gift is the land of the free. As I sat there pondering what the voice had meant. My heart-felt soaking wet. I did not know what this strange feeling was I just sat there in disbelief and wondered As the coldness of this feeling kept growing inside me; I had been faced with so many different tragedies. The coldness kept getting deeper and deeper within me. I just kept shaking my head in disbelief. I could not believe what my eyes had just seen. For the Lord had shown me the greatest tragedy. America would go through a great suffering. That most people would their life in disbelief. Until, one day when they open their eyes. They have lost their freedoms that so many men had shed their blood to live in the land of the free. For this freedom, that these Americans had so gratefully cherished had went away. Till the children of this great land had all been turned into slaves. Most people could not understand what had happened in this great land. How they had lost all their freedoms to some communist plan. Until one day this great awakening had spread all throughout the land That becoming a slave was never part of their plan This is the suppose to be land of the free in my home land We all have to stand together so strong and so tall To never allow freedom in America to fall Whether that be the communist, socialist, or fascist way This is the LAND OF THE FREE AND THE HOME OF THE BRAVE.
