Ever since a so-called martyr of the Islam world was killed in a car bomb incident threats have been made towards Israel.

Even if they did do it , the guy was on the most wanted list for terrorist.

These people want to wipe Israel off the face of the earth, well God will not allow that to happen.

We will see if the armies of the world start heading towards Meggido or not or as we call ARMAGEDDON.

Putin of Russia is claiming that he will still be in charge and is backing Iran. The"KING OF THE NORTH"

the bible calls it .

The Europen union is getting larger it won't be long till they elect one leader for all of Europe.

Will this be the Anti- Christ or not?

Just some things to think about.

For if ISRAEL is attacked we will watch if somebody signs a 7 year peace accord or not.

Be Blessed and ready for the Coming of the LORD!

A good relationship demands honesty in speaking to one another. The old saying "A mans is as good as his word" is sometimes a joke today.

God's people ought to cherish their own reputations and that of others.

If a person is unwilling to speak ill of another , he is less likely to steal or commit murder.

Ex 20-12 says to "honor your father and mother so that your life will be long upon the land".

God established parents as the authority figures in the family unit.

Child re often get their first impressions about God and the bible from their parents.

Parents who walk in the spirit are to be examples and role models for their children for the children will copy,do and say whatever they see their parents do.

The children who want to please God will obey and honor their parents no matter what the peer pressure is from the world.

When children become adults the need to take care of their parents also not stick them off in some home somewhere and not remember them anymore

Ex 20:8]
Sabbath means rest, but God intended for this day to be more than an absence from work . It was to be a day of worship as well- a day for setting aside all thoughts of materialistic gain and thinking of him.

God set the pattern himself in the creation of the world.

Why do today's Christians fuss about which day if you want to worship on Saturday or Sunday either one is fine for Paul said to not fuss on days.

Take one day a week and reflect on what God has done for you.

Personally I do this everyday and use Sunday to go and worship and praise him.

Jesus said that man was not for the sabbath but sabbath was for the man . He knew that we needed rest to revive our senses and to reflect on his abundant grace and mercy and blessings.

This has become one of the stumbling blocks between the Jewish and Christian faiths we should learn to accept each others way of worship and await the arrival of the Messiah together.

The first four cammandments are sins against God and our actions toward him and hurt nobody but ourselves the next 5 are sins against our fellow man which we will discuss next

Ex 2:40
The second commandment is necessary because people cannot always keep the first one.

During the days of Moses a lot of people wanted to see what they worshiped so they would make something , even the Israelites did this with the golden calf.

People would offer all kind of sacrifices to these made up God's including human ones.

They would make golden statues of earthly rulers that they had seen and worship them.

God has never been a tangible being[Deut4:12]but he is always a Spirit[John4:24]

The complete commandment goes as follows [from the Jewish bible].

You are not to make any God's before me. You are not to make for yourselves a carved image or any kind of representation of anything in heaven above, on the earth beneath or in the water below the shoreline.

You are not to bow down to them or serve them;for I ADONAI your God, am a jealous God,punishing the children for the sins of the parents to the third and fourth generation of those who hate me but displaying grace to the thousandth generation of those who love and obey my mitzvot.

There is no actual separation between 1 and 2 in the Jewish text but were separated in ours.

We may not make a carved image or offer sacrifices but some do worship entertainers or icons in the world and sacrifice time and finances and other things instead of making them to God.

During the reformation the soon to be called Protestants went into the Catholic churches and took all the statues of Christ and Mary and all the others and replaced them with copies of the Ten Commandments.

I see no problem in pictures and statues for I have a few pictures of my own I just don't worship them.

We are not to worship God's creation or anything man creates about God but God himself.
