2nd night in #Vegas and I can't wait to leave. Love seeing friends. Not loving the wretched environment of this city.

Proverbs 3:5-6 – Trust in the Lord…

Proverbs 3:5-6 (King James Version)

Trust in the Lord with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding. In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths.

There was a quote made by President Barack Obama during the 2012 presidential election campaign during a speech. “If you’ve got a business, you didn’t build that. Somebody else made that happen.”

He was right, not in what he was implying, but in the actual words themselves. Whatever we are able to accomplish in our lives, all of the successes and blessings, come through the grace of our Lord. Even those who do not believe are touched by what many call divine intervention on an ongoing basis. Most of the time, we simply don’t realize it. The truth is this, that God can and will guide us through our troubles. This isn’t to say that God has any interest in making us successful in the terms of society today. He wants us to be successful in the realities of life. That is to say that he wants us to find the path to the next life. That path is belief in Yeshua, trusting our Lord in every action we take, every word we speak, and every breath that we take in.

We are to acknowledge Him, to be humble and repentant servants. Through our flawed understanding of the world, we will fail in all we do. When we trust in our Lord, we have an opportunity to succeed. Again, it’s important to understand that success by our standards is not necessarily success by his standards. It’s not about making money, paying our bills, and buying luxuries. It’s about being what humans were supposed to be originally and what we cannot be with the grace of God and the belief in Jesus Christ as our Lord and Savior.

History of Jerusalem: The BBC Documentary is Misleading

Jerusalem has been one of the hottest topics of discussion for thousands of years. It has been conquered, destroyed, rebuilt, and conquered again. Its historical and political importance are unquestioned. It’s place in the Bible is without peer.

When I learned that the BBC had done a three-hour documentary on the subject, I was skeptical of its validity. Mainstream media has a way of diluting religion down to fable and must stay politically correct when it comes to documenting history, particularly one with such a wide range of diverse opinions that billions in the world consider facts. What I realized when I watched it was that their handling of the subject was much worse than I could have imagined. It isn’t just a standard “safe” exposition on the history of the city. It attempts to diminish the truth of what the city represents, going so far as to say that the Bible is “sometimes correct but only when compared to historical documents”.

Here is a transcript of the introduction in the first video given by its narrator, author and historian Simon Sebag Montefiore. As you’ll see, it’s the standard vanilla. Only later do we start to really get into the mangling of the history of the city.

Jerusalem is the shrine of three faiths: Judaism, Christianity, and Islam. It’s a place of exquisite beauty but also of ugly vulgarity. For some, this is the center of the world and the home of God Himself, but for others, Jerusalem is the best argument against religion there’s ever been. Jerusalem’s holiness has made it the most fought-over city in history. Over the centuries, Jews, Christians, and Muslims have competed viciously to commandeer the history and holiness of this place, but as the competition has intensified, so has the holiness.

All three religions have shared origins in the Old Testament and all have laid claim to Jerusalem. For many, the history of the city is more a matter of faith than fact, but I believe you can piece together Jerusalem’s fractured history and that’s the story I’m going to tell. It’s a story of empires won and lost, power and identity. Above all, it’s a story for man’s search for holiness.

So how did this craggy, remote, obscure little stronghold become the holy city, the prime place on earth for God to meet man?

The real problem is with the subtlety. As we posted in a previous article about the Importance of Subtle Blasphemy, there are small bites being taken out of our collective understanding of our place in the world. It isn’t the overt attacks that should worry Christians and Jews the most. It’s the little doubts that documentaries like this can bring into one’s consciousness.

I’m posting the video, but be warned. The history as told here does not ring true from a Biblical perspective. If you are strong in your faith and wearing the Armor of God as you watch, you’ll be able to distinguish the false statements from the truthful ones. This is how deceptions are made most powerful. When the truth is intermixed with lies, it’s easier to deceive or be deceived. Watch the video and leave a comment here and/or on the video about the points you found most erroneous.

Episode 0 – An Introduction to the Judeo Christian Church Podcast

We’re trying. We really are. We believe that it has been placed on our hearts to put together a weekly podcast that illuminates, that asks as many questions as it answers, and that tries to stay focused on the Bible rather than opinions that don’t hold up when placed in the light of scripture.

This first attempt, one that we’ve called Episode 0 since it’s a first attempt, came out better than expected but nowhere near the level that we want it to be. With that said, this introductory podcast is a good place to start when trying to understand our mission and to help us learn how to improve.

Check it out and please give us some feedback.

With my wife out of town, my daughter is taking care of me. She knew I'd go straight to the computer to work after waking up so she left this on the kryboard.
