In the book of Nehemiah one man comes under conviction to see victory for God's people. He was in a life of comfort and had no personal reason to interrupt his life except that the things of God were important to him. The walls of Jerusalem were destroyed but when he went to the word of God he saw a hope for their restoration. When I started Dorean I likewise saw a hope in God's word that the plans I saw coming of the bankers was not God's plans. This is called an opportunity for faith. Yes you can hope God will use someone else but it continues to plague you personally. Then the question comes "If not me who?" This is the place Nehemiah found himself. It was where Scott and I found ourselves. It may be where you have found yourselves from time to time. Once you've made the commitment to action then a certain familiar pattern will appear. It did for Nehemiah. It is currently for Scott and I and probably for you. I think of one named Tammy who has already shared this with us.
The pattern starts with the faith target. Then comes the displeasure of those who were content in the way things were. They never can or will see what you have seen in the faith. (Neh. 2:10) When it becomes clear to these retards they have not moved you with their displeasure they move to mockery, scorn, and ridicule. (Neh. 2:19) They really cannot help themselves because the call of God is exclusive. They know spiritually they have been ignored by God. He has no pleasure in them. It is no accident they war against God and are blind to faith's opportunity. As you continue in the work of God your enemies will have gained converts. The crowd of retards grow because birds of a feather flock together. The next step for the malcontent collective of retards is force or violence. They can't help themselves. Their frustration of not being able to stop the work of God tempts them to desperate measures. (Neh. 4:7-14) Even this fails them and God delivers. Next and what I think the most painful is intrigue. Out of your own camp comes the betrayers. (Neh. 6:1-14) Friends plot and with kind words work against God. You've seen the pattern here and probably lived it. Victory is still the end. Let the pattern din into your spirit a justified hope.

Well, certainly the same old BS at any rate.
YEAH, BUT YOU KEEP COMIN BACK FOR MORE.
ok...now yooze yo brans a littel...
if the "2" witnesses will preach the Gos of Kdm, then if christians will still be here and not be raptooned, then why dont the christians preach it???
ans. becauese they CANT!
they are not equipped to preach the G of K, as in they wont know what to preach for the G of K because it hasnt been told to them yet.
only the "2" witnesses will know it..
now, foolo along here..if christians will have nuthing to preech then what it they job to do?? NOTHING!
but it cant work that way, as a christians job IS TO WITNESS!!!
CMON YOOZE YO BRANS!!!
a christians job would be done! it would make NO sense!!!
also, as christians at taht time will revert back to jesus day when they walked around with a (+) on there backs, they will not be able to survive...
only the "2" witnesses at that time will have enuf supernatural protection form god to stand up to the a/c...
and the a/c eventually even overcmes them and the world rejoices as they are left for dead for 3 days in the street and the whole world wathces it on the controlled news network...CNN....
then afta 3 days, they supernaturally rise up to the heavens, and this event puts a shock into the a/c and the rest of the evil world that he runs....runs...thats the rite word for it...he runs to the meds cabinet fo the immodium ad extra strenght....as do the rest of the world...the stock of the parent co. of immodium-ad shoots up 66% on taht day alone!!
(maybe they should rename it IMMODIUM A/C ??)
REMBER!
in the olivet discourse, jesus is talking to jews, His disciples...there are NO christians yet!!!
IMPORTANT!!!
when they ask Him: master, tell us, when shall these things be?
SEE I HAVE SET BEFORE YOU AND OPEN DOOR, AND NOONE CAN SHUT IT;
yeah, dat jimmy noone a petty strong guy!
now why cant christians operate like this intead of chargin all taht interest??
why doesnt the govt. make it this way? because of crupt juges like beans is why!

Shariah-compliant Vs. Usury
You remember our discussion last week about how when you buy and sell shares in a gold or silver ETF, you don't have convertibility to the underlying metal unless you have 50,000 shares or some huge position? Well, check this out: UK ETFS Launches Shariah-compliant ETC's.
The part that caught my eye was this: "In purchasing the security, the investor obtains an allocated physical entitlement to the underlying bullion..." More study needed.

Islamic finance has been making inroads in a number of areas. For example, a "Sharia-compliant Mastercard" (http://ukpress.google.com/
article/ALeqM5hXe2W-
lYVtQrxXfiArQ4lPZhsxig) has been launched this month. But before you get excited about a card with no interest, interest not allowed under Sharia compliant/Islamic finance, remember this is a prepaid card.
Why anyone would do a card instead of cash just escapes me. Cards have developed a real mystique. Only thing I can figure is if I was going to get mugged, a card would be better than cash..

Also in the UK, Britain has launched its first Sharia-compliant insurance firm recently, too. http://afp.google.com/

Put all of this together and you can see an emerging outline of a conflict between financial systems at a global level. On the one hand, we have the West featuring predatory lending practices and 33% interest (and even higher on some credit cards). On the other, we have Sharia compliant investing which doesn't partake of the interest-monster, instead being based on buy-sell transactions.
A threat to the West? Oh yeah, in a serious way. I mean beyond barring investment in companies that deal in pork, alcohol, or banks and finance outfits that charge interest. This is one of those big, slow-moving like a glacier stories that doesn't get much play in the MSM but it's the stuff that changes the world over time.
