The Okcitykid – A Peaceful Vet

In response to “This One Is All About Me”

Quote:

it is the people who have to start the change and make it happen, or the change doesnt happen! thats the law of nature. most people in the world have already forgotten religion. those few that are left are causing their own downfalls.

I did not mean to imply that this is the fault of the Pakistani people. You and I have been friends for years and I’ve learned a lot from you.

What is happening in Pakistan concerning the floods is the fault of global warming and some of us wonder, me included, if this could be a result of HAARP (that would be a reach, but still a possibility, either intentional or by accident) Though our government might have to put money out for emergency aid, they could save a bunch of money in future military spending, again though, that is a reach without evidence.

The terrorists in Pakistan, mostly in Afghanistan was a creation of our own CIA, Hillary Clinton admits this on national television, at that time we were at war with communist Russia. There was an instance once, four times in a row after Desert Storm and again it just happened recently here in Oklahoma, when our soldiers come home, they would kill their wife and children and then kill themselves. It is not to difficult for me to believe that mind control experiments are done on our soldiers, perfected, to only be used as weapons of propaganda for an agenda that is kept hidden from us. There was no such thing as suicide bombings until U.S. involvement.

Common sense tells you that air planes did not take down those sky scrapers. My government is not stupid and I’m not smarter than they. They know air planes did not take those buildings down, but they are willing to believe that and propagate this which means, they, our government was involved in the 9/11 terrorist attack. If they could be that evil, what other evil could they be involved in.

I don’t believe that the Pakistani people are being punished, but victims. Global warming is mostly a result of coal and oil along with an industrialized market economy. It’s like drunk drivers who get in a car and drive and then have an accident. It always seems that they live while some innocent person dies. Those who have taken advantage of coal and oil investments and an industrialized market economy, they are fat and happy while the innocent suffer the consequences of their indulgence.

While you may not believe that Jesus was crucified. Death would have been a favour compared to the punishment of hatred, slander and torture from those he offered good will.
But that is this world, a world ruled by Satan. With leaders who pretend to be for us to gain our power but are always against us at every turn.

I can’t change it and you can’t change it, but all of us together can. Jesus (peace be upon him) and many others have been sent to teach us how to change this world, but we have to follow those teachings. Not you or I, but all of us. Satan knows the power of the collective conciousness and so takes every opportunity to divide us up one against another.

I’ve always said that this is a round world and everyone sees their own side and their are many sides to a round world.

The smartest of us are the ones who can see thru the eyes of others.  They can see more of this round world than anybody else.

Because the wise say, “I wonder” and the fools say, “I know.”

How can anybody know when they can only see one side of a round world?

My blood pressure keeps going up and my doctor keeps having to up my prescription, and today I worked very hard and unloaded almost a whole pallet of copy paper, so there was no reason why my blood pressure should have been high.  I have even supplemented my blood preasure medicine with grape seed extract, but still it keeps creeping up there.  So today I figure I should take some extra medication and I accidently took my wife’s Anti Depressant pill.  She takes some good drugs, I am mellow yellow.  The world could be coming to an end and I would be like, “whatever!”

With that said, I feel like talking if anyone cares to listen.

Pakistan, it really bothers me and I even complained to God (as I pray to him in my mind).  I’m like, God how can people believe in you when such terrible things happen.  I mean, here’s the deal, people are hungry, sick and thirsty for some clean fresh water, because that crap they’re drinking is making them sick, and they’re drinking it because they are hungry and it fills their belly leaving them feel sick, yet they have no home.  They have lost everything except what they can carry, and carry they must, for miles and miles treading thru water sometimes up to their waist in hopes to find dry ground, food and clean water.  When it rains they just get wet, and at night, do they have a dry blanket to keep them warm?  I dare anyone to tell these people that if they’re not saved, they will go to hell.  And they will be like, well at least it will be warm and dry there.  To die of hunger and thirst has got to be the worst way to die, because it is a very slow death.

I think we have a serious misunderstanding of God.  I believe if God could do something, God would do something, but can’t.  Because God is the ruler of the spirit world.  By his mere thought he created the physical world, but he is not a part of it and does not rule it.  We are the rulers of the physical world, that’s why we’re here, to make it better.  Jesus and many other leaders have tried to teach us this, but we’re still not listening.

I can’t do anything, but WE can change the world.  It has to be WE.  It can’t be me and it can’t be you, it has to be US, only we can do it.  That is our challenge and we are utterly failing.

It starts with you, that’s right, that’s what I’m saying, are you listening, it starts with you. Love that is. If you got lost, then you have to find yourself, and when you do, you have to love yourself, you see, because it starts with you.

A Stone Is All You Got

Just agree with everything you see
Believe everything you hear
The stone is your reality

But the life you aint got
Until you are brave enough
To Disagree

Then inside that rock you will see
It isn’t that hard to be

Follow That Man Who Taught A Rainbow

Acting like a clown
I found as I looked around
I had fallen down
Just wanting to be
Someone you’d like to see
When I just should have been
me
A gray sky
the lies
and the mask
And when you can’t put it in words
It’s time to put it to an end
So I took thirty four pills
And lived
don’t know why I’m around
As I carry this grave around
But I’ve left town
I cannot go back down
All I lack is reason
Out of season
Yet I am alive

Though you think I should be ashamed
That I am to blame
I will have no shame
As I follow that man who taught a rainbow
Because there is gold at the end I know
Because I lived

As we gather around that pot of gold
I hope to see you then
see each other as we are
not as we thought
we were back when

My government supports terror groups, Renta soldiers and our military and CIA is all over the world doing things you don’t want to know about.

U.S. corporations are over seas polluting the air of other countries, stealing water from other nations and underpaying workers there so that workers will work longer hours in order to make a living.  They’re cutting forests, taking oil and other minerals at rock bottom prices.

True, I pay taxes, but the fact is, those taxes are taken out of my paycheck before I even get it.  I’m 51 years old and that has been going on all my life.  They don’t ask, they tell you, you want a job, you need a social security number.  You provide a social security and they deduct taxes out of your pay.   I have never been asked if that was ok or how this money should be spent.  You know why, because this is the land of the Brave and the free I am told.  They are brave as they freely take.  It’s not my fault.  Sure I get to vote, and so do you.  We get to vote for their plan A, or their plan B and in other states you get an option to vote for their plan C.

And is it my fault that Coca Cola sucked one of India’s largest wells dry that 100s of thousands of people depended on?  I didn’t even know about it until after it happened.  After I heard about it, I switched to Pepsi, I will never drink another Coca Cola.  Well guess what, Coca Cola owns Pepsi, now doesn’t that figure.

I am not to blame and you are not to blame.  You might be doing this and that and I’m not doing that, but instead I’m doing that and this.  We’re still doing something and yet nothing seems to be working.  But I’m still not to blame and neither are you.  Some people don’t seem to be doing nothing.  Well, nothing we seem to be doing is working.  I’m sure they would all jump right onboard if it looked like we were accomplishing something.

We are accomplishing nothing by blaming ourselves or others and as we accomplish nothing they win.  We need to do a little research and find out who “THEY” are, what is their agenda and why?  And they are not the republicans, liberals, christians or jews.  No they are not the muslims, nor the mexicans or the blacks.  If your research can only go as far as your narrow minded bigotry, then let me ask this?  Lets blame it on the bigots?  Bigotry however like hypocrisy is a human frailty that we all suffer from and then we would all be back to blaming each other.

You have to be willing to do open minded research without prejudice and both share and welcome ideas with others and as we discover who they are, what their agenda is and why, we might, together, find a way to beat them.

Genesis 5:18 And Ja´red lived on for a hundred and sixty-two years. Then he became father to E´noch. 19 And after his fathering E´noch Ja´red continued to live eight hundred years. Meanwhile he became father to sons and daughters. 20 So all the days of Ja´red amounted to nine hundred and sixty-two years and he died. 21 And E´noch lived on for sixty-five years. Then he became father to Me·thu´se·lah. 22 And after his fathering Me·thu´se·lah E´noch went on walking with the [true] God three hundred years. Meanwhile he became father to sons and daughters. 23 So all the days of E´noch amounted to three hundred and sixty-five years. 24 And E´noch kept walking with the [true] God. Then he was no more, for God took him.

I read the bible when I was a teenager and I remember reading this and questioning Christianity then because Enoch was apparently saved and Jesus hadn’t even come yet.  The reply I believe I had gotten when questioning this was, “without the Holy Spirit we cannot understand the bible.”  Sadly I bought that, wasn’t too bright back then.  Now that I’m reading it again, now I’m like like “wait a minute.”

Jesus said that he had to give his life for our redemption and further he explains that only through him can we enter the Kingdom.  I’m not going to say that those things are false, I’m just going to say that maybe these things are misunderstood, Jesus taught not an eye for eye a tooth for a tooth, but should someone strike you, turn the other cheek so that they can strike the other side.  He brought us a higher law, to do unto others as you would have them do unto you.

To understand what Jesus meant by these things he had said, lets look at what he did.    The religious leaders of his time who represented God taught an eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth and only by following a strict code could one please God.  Jesus had come with a higher law teaching that if someone strike you on the cheek, turn the other so that they may strike you again, to do unto others as you would have them do unto you.  That the meek should inherit the earth and peacemakers should be called sons and daughters of God and to forgive those who persecute you.  These teaching went strongly against the teachings of the religious leaders of his time and they were angered by this believing that if this man was the messiah he claimed to be, his teachings would go along with theirs.  So they sought at every corner to trip him up and take him out and they succeeded (well maybe).

Jesus healed the sick, raised the dead, cast out demons and taught that if you just had the faith of a mustard seed (which is very, very small seed), you could tell a mountain to move, and it would.  So now he is nailed to a cross to die after being mocked and beaten.   A man who tamed the seas and walked on water, surely he could have called lightning bolts down from the sky and had all his enemies killed, but no.  He practiced just what he taught and said, “father forgive them for they know not what they do.”  If he would have done otherwise he would have been a hypocrite.  So what are you if you practice what you teach, you are a man of your word.  And if what you teach is the truth, then you are the truth you teach.   So if you believe in what Jesus taught then you shall be saved.  But how could you believe in what Jesus did if he did not practice what he taught and rather became a hypocrite.  So this is what Jesus meant that you can only be saved through him.  Through his teachings, as he was what he taught.  You must put away the old teachings of an eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth and be born again into a new teaching and he gives you example after example of this and his own death would be his last example of that.

You are not saved by just believing that he died for your sins.  You have to believe in what he taught, because that is what he did.  If you believe in what he taught then you will try to follow it and if you fail he will forgive you, just as you forgive others, as he taught you to pray.

He said to them, “When you pray, say:
” ‘Father,
hallowed be your name,
your kingdom come.
Give us each day our daily bread.
Forgive us our sins,
for we also forgive everyone who sins against us.”

So that is how Enoch was saved.  Enoch must have learned the higher law and followed it.  Just as anyone who learns of this higher law, believes in it and tries to follow it, they too will be saved.

And if anyone teaches anything other than what Jesus taught and says rather, do this or do that, believe this or believe that, confess this or confess that and you will be saved, I would suggest you question it.  By trying to follow the teachings of Jesus you are not going to go to hell, THINK ABOUT IT.

Genesis 1:27 – And God proceeded to create the man in his image, in God’s image he created him; male and female he created them. (The New World Translation- a Jehovah Witness Bible)

The Jehovah Witnesses gave me this bible and I gave them a donation for it, but they said it was free and I said I’ll pay for it anyways.  So far in comparing it to old faithful KJV I’ve not found any errors, and it is very easy to understand.  I’ve been told that the Catholic bible was the most accurate version, but I don’t think the Bible Church who told me that heard of this one.

I was listening to a clip of Coast to Coast and they had some historian expert on (didn’t catch his name) who claimed that Genesis was the oldest religious transcript in the world.  And that the new world order people were working hard to discredit it but were not able to.  I wished I could have heard the whole show so I knew what he was talking about, but I just got into the middle of it. You know how (me) and a few people like me believe that when the bible was talking about the sons of God finding the daughters of men desirable, we think the bible is talking about Alains.  Well this guy claims that there were two races of mankind on the earth at that time.  One followed God and this is why they are called sons and daughters of God and the other fell away and are called son’s and daughters of man.  Now that opens up a whole new train of thought.

Not a subject discussed on coast to coast, but I’m thinking now maybe this might shed some light onto why both Satan and Jesus are called the morning star and Jesus keeps being referred to as the son of man while he is also acknowledged as the son of God, so you know, I got to look into this.

So far I got as far as Genesis 1:27 and I remembered, now that I am a minister, that this is something I need to share whether I’m listened to or not.  Because there is a lot of confusion about this.

I have been told that the bible is sexist and thus the Jewish, Christian and Muslim religions are sexist.  I will not deny that there are religious leaders in all three religions who are sexist and thus lead people to be sexist, but this is a mistake and Genesis 1:27 explains it.  If you come across a Jew, Christian or Muslim who believes that it is taught that man is superior to woman, you can explain to them that man is men and women and here is your little verse that they subscribe to as the ultimate authority, to show them and prove to them that they are wrong.

If further proof is needed, tell them to google, “deborah the prophetess.”  There is no greater person on this earth in any of these three religions than a prophet and if a woman can be a prophet, then how can she be less than a man.  And if that don’t work, explain how Jesus was born of a woman without the help of a man, now that should stop them dead in their tracks right there. They might argue that there are more men prophets than women prophets, and right there, I’d just give up with the realization that some people just aren’t capable of learning.  But it is true that most of the prophets, government leaders and corporate leaders are men, this is by design of woman, not men.  If women wanted it to be different, it would be, it is enough that they be mothers of prophets, government and corporate leaders, this does not make them less but only because they are equal that this is so.  I’m going to try to explain this the way  I understand it and you can disagree and teach me something new, because one thing I am certain of, I can learn, I can be taught.

The spiritual explanation of men and women is:  Woman is the inspiration and man is the creator.  In other words, women inspire men to create.  Men and women are different.  I’m not going to create a list of this is men and this is women because we will argue over it for days, weeks, months, years, forever possibly.  Lets be honest, we kinda lost site of what a woman and a man is.  If you have lived on this earth awhile, you will have seen some men who act more like what you think is a woman than most woman you have known and you will see some woman who act more like a man than most men you have seen.  I think this is partially natural and unnatural.  I think in nature you will find this naturally occurring but our domesticated life style we have created for ourselves and a state of confusion that we seem to be in today is a contributer.

What has caused the confusion we seem to be in today is equality.  This is something that some people just won’t get.  It is believed by some that to be equal to me, you must be just like me, if you are different you are less than me.  This to me is a sign of maturity and some people just won’t grow up.  They will believe, that to be as good as me, you must be just like me.  They will never understand that someone who is different than they can be equal to them, they just can’t get it.  Part of this is the fault of our society where we send our kids to school to learn math, science and proper word structure but fail to teach wisdom and understanding.  Some say that this is by design and I have to agree.  Why would you want someone to question things, wouldn’t it be better if we all just went along.

So, men and women are different, but are both equal having been created in the image of God as it is written in Genesis 1:27, according to an historian, the oldest document in existence. Whether you believe that this writing is a scientific document written in reality or a Parable written in dream language, meant to portray a truth, either way, it means the same thing.  It is possible for two people to be different and yet still be equal and we need to learn this and began treating each other as such, then, there will be peace in the whole world, and it begins with me.

PEACE.

First of all I want to say that the TV is  saying that going around the Internet is a suggestion to nuke the oil spill.  I haven’t come across anywhere on the Internet about a suggestion to nuke the oil spill.  Did the TV lie?  What do you think?

Ok – what I have heard out there on the Internet is that this is a lot worse than the TV is saying it is.  BP drilled down four miles into the earths crust and they might have drilled just a little too far and opened up a can of worms.  Even if they hadn’t ignored all the safety precautions, there still may have been an explosion.  There could be sometime soon an explosion of nuclear proportions that will send large clouds of toxic gases into the atmosphere.  I always thought Oklahoma was a safe place to live, but we may not even be safe here.

So when the TV says that some say we should nuke this thing, when it happens, is it going to be blamed on someone else??  And when BP says they will put up 20 billion without even an argument?   What they are really saying is:  “oops.”  A really big “OOPS!”

If you have friends or relatives that you have not spoken to in a long time, you might want to give them a call, send them a note or email.  Just saying it might be a good idea.
