Reformation Day – Rebellious Catholics Return

October 31, 2009 By Richard A. Volunteer

VATICAN CITY — Archbishop of Canterbury Rowan Williams, spiritual leader of the world’s Anglicans, will meet Pope Benedict XVI on November 21, Vatican spokesman Federico Lombardi confirmed Friday.

The Vatican announced last week that Pope Benedict XVI has approved a new structure to ease the way for Anglicans — including married priests — to join the Roman Catholic Church.

Williams will be on hand for celebrations marking the 100th anniversary of the birth of Johannes Willebrands, a Dutch cardinal who was a pioneer in Catholic ecumenism and who died in 2006.

The Holy See said the move was a response to “many requests to the Holy See from groups of Anglican clergy and faithful in various parts of the world who want to enter into full and visible communion.”

The Anglican church has been confronted by a growing split over the ordination of women and gay marriage.

Several conservative Anglican priests have defected to Catholicism since the ordination of women was adopted from 1984 in various branches of the Anglican Communion and by the Church of England in 1992.

And soon other Protestant denominations will see the error of their ways…..and follow. Œcumenism and its goals of greater unity will always sell out the truth and the gospel. There can be no unity between truth and lies, and light and dark. They were, are, and always will be opposed. Any unity and compromise by its very nature turns Gospel truth into a lie.

The Hypocrisy of “Standing with Israel”

October 16, 2009 By Richard A. Volunteer

And while Christians “stand with Israel” – one should not forget they are a people described as cut off and dead in sin – For they being ignorant of God’s righteousness, and going about to show their own righteousness, have not submitted themselves unto the righteousness of God.” Rom. 10:1-4. Yeshua poured Woe’s on their unbelieving leadership. He promised them destruction, for missing the signs of His visitation.

The Messiah had “a great commission” for His believers and a sequence, to the Jew first – “But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes on you, and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth.” Acts 1:8 Take this Good News of the Kingdom of God, to the Jew first, Rom 1 v 16 – “For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek.”

We do not obey because our tourist privileges will be at risk in Jerusalem, and it is hard to convince a Jew to believe in that false Greek Messiah, that abolished Moses and Torah.

Somehow we are think the Jewish people have improved with age, as Messiah’s missionaries are deported and Messianic Jews (Saints of Yeshua and Co Heirs of His Kingdom) are refused Aliyah?

Paul said Pray for the Jewish people, for they are lost at present. No where does Paul arrange tours for the Galatians, or for the church at Rome, or Corinth. In fact his only support is a collection for the Saints in Jerusalem – not the Zealots battling Roman occupation, or planting trees in Negev or hotels in Galilee. Why does an assembly of modern believers, or a ministry of the Holy One of Israel, include tours to Israel for Gentiles – organized by the Pastor, only to subsidize his own travels?

The Christian “ministries” in Jerusalem serve Gentile believers, and are free to stay in Jerusalem by the authorities, because they have sold out the Gospel of the Kingdom. Have we so little to offer that “chosen people” of our Kingdom of God – that we consider tourism our only gift to Israel?  Are F16’s the best the Family of God, can offer His brethren, as we carve up God’s land, in support of lower oil prices.

There is another Jewish holocaust coming – and we are busy arranging hay-rides and sleigh-rides. We disgrace and sell out the soon coming Kingdom of God, when we cater to their carnality, with our own.
 Do not forget, it was the very sons of Jacob who deceived and then murdered the men of Shechem, under the pretense of circumcision and inclusion into covenant. Gen 34 25 Now it came to pass on the third day, when they were in pain, that two of the sons of Jacob, Simeon and Levi, Dinah’s brothers, each took his sword and came boldly upon the city and killed all the males. 26 And they killed Hamor and Shechem his son with the edge of the sword, and took Dinah from Shechem’s house, and went out. 27 The sons of Jacob came upon the slain, and plundered the city, because their sister had been seduced.

Why do we act like the unbelieving Jews have improved with age? Is Gods word truth, or is this account fiction? Call sin, sin. Call Carnal, Carnal! Stop glorifying their flesh and look up to Glorify the God, that will save them all. Then represent Him and His message to that nation. It was, and is, and will always be –

Repent for your King is coming.

“Israel does not read Zachariah, which promises that all the nations will gather to destroy them. We who do read Zachariah, assume it is none of our business, as we book the next tour, to buy a fancy shofar in Jerusalem“

God help us, for we are sure, He will save them, but will He save the watchmen with their blood on our hands?

Peace in our time – 70th Anniversary of W.W.2

September 2, 2009 By Richard A. Volunteer

“Today marks the 70th anniversary of the outbreak of the most terrible of wars. We are in Westerplatte, the symbol of heroic resistance against the stronger enemy,” Poland’s President Lech Kaczynski said while opening the international part of the ceremonies.

The shelling of Westerplatte by the German Schleswig-Holstein warship started at 4:45 a.m. on Sept. 1, 1939, and was long considered to have been the first episode in the Nazi aggression on Poland that started the World War in Europe.

Poland’s Prime Minister Donald Tusk said during the Westerplatte ceremonies that the “biggest tragedy in the history of the humankind began in Gdansk on Sept. 1, 1939”

Meanwhile, we are buying peace in our time…The lessons of history are unlearned…on this very day.

WASHINGTON — President Barack Obama on Tuesday praised American Muslims for enriching the nation’s culture at a dinner to celebrate the Islamic holy month of Ramadan.

“A few years ago,” Obama said, “he explained this view — and this is part of why he’s The Greatest — saying, ‘Rivers, ponds, lakes and streams — they all have different names, but they all contain water. Just as religions do — they all contain truths.'”

Ramadan, a monthlong period of prayer, reflection and sunrise-to-sunset fasts, began Aug. 22 in most of the Islamic world. It is believed that God began revealing the Quran to Muhammad during Ramadan, and the faithful are supposed to spend the month in religious reflection, prayer and remembrance of the poor.

But Gods calendar marches with a message unchanged…to those that will hear…

Interesting that this month of Elul is Gods call of Repentance to the assembly of His people, before Trumpets and the 7th month. This was the time of testing for Yeshua in the desert….while John the Baptist called a nation to prepare the way of the Lord. This is our month…for a watchman church who cries aloud and spares not …

There are wars coming – Wars of Nations and Wars of Religion and finally that final defeat – when the governments of this earth are forever taken from man…..

Dan 2v44 And in the days of these kings shall the God of heaven set up a kingdom, which shall never be destroyed: and the kingdom shall not be left to other people, but it shall break in pieces and consume all these kingdoms, and it shall stand forever.

Letter to the editor

April 27, 2007 By Richard A. Volunteer

Dear Sir /Madam

I am now a US citizen who came here from Africa. In various African churches, we sang about America the beautiful and “amber waves of grain” from donated American hymnals.

Relief agencies would fly in Mielie Meel (Corn Flour) and other staples while bare foot Africans stood in line waiting. Women carrying babies in a sling, carried 10kg bags of corn back to the village, to be pounded to flour with mortar to make flatcakes on hot stones.

In Seattle, I now pay for emission testing.

Meanwhile back home in many countries, my family tells me hunger is rampant and the relief flights don’t come as often as food aid buys less these days. I discovered Iowa used to export 50% of their corn harvest but is soon to be importing corn for ethanol Bio-fuel.

I am not against Bio-fuel. Brazil has 40% of their all fuel made from sugar cane, but it takes 450 pounds of corn to fill an SUV tank – in Africa that is food for 1 whole year. Please reconsider making BioFuel from wood or from sugar cane like Brazil. Why sing about “amber waves” of industrial production when people starve?.

Why target the poor mans harvest and starve him for our Bio-fuel. I can not help but think every time I fill my car – How many people will not eat so I can drive? Even here poor Mexicans spend money on corn tortillas and rioted last year.

I will pay more for gas – but don’t make me guilty of murder and taking the food from the poor. Leave the food alone and use something else, like sugar or wood for Bio-fuel.

Road to Emmaus

October 9, 2000 By Richard A. Volunteer

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

We find our destiny
On the road we take away
Far from Seattle
To where Inverness lay


Left behind are all our losses
Dead dreams on empty crosses
We walk away forever?.
To that place “Love” finds us.
And shares the road beside us.
That “Stranger” with a point of view.


He does not scold our running
For He knows our petty fear,
Yet questions our confusion
Of promises, He made so clear.
He assures us – “I will return!”


Then shares our evening meal
And leaving us these few words
“Kindle Hope into Desire!”
“Fan Faith into a Flame!”
“Blazing Action, Now on Fire!”
“Teach all this and use My Name!”


So running back into my city
With a burning to proclaim
“He is alive!” ” He is alive!”
And I will never be the same!”


Yom Kippur – October 9th 2000 afternoon.
