Week 11: ISSUE BY ISSUE ADDRESSED BY GOD’S KINGDOM: PUSHING RESET: LETTING WORK BECOME MORE ENJOYABLE, REWARDING.
Isaiah 65:16-19: “16 So that anyone who seeks a blessing for himself in the earth Will be blessed by the God of truth...For the former distresses will be forgotten; They will be concealed from my eyes. 17 For look! I am creating new heavens and a new earth; And the former things will not be called to mind, Nor will they come up into the heart. 18 So exult and be joyful forever in what I am creating. For look! I am creating Jerusalem a cause for joy And her people a cause for exultation. 19 And I will rejoice in Jerusalem and exult in my people; No more will there be heard in her the sound of weeping or a cry of distress.”
Isaiah 65:22b-23: “22 They will not build for someone else to inhabit, Nor will they plant for others to eat. For the days of my people will be like the days of a tree, And the work of their hands my chosen ones will enjoy to the full. 23 They will not toil for nothing, Nor will they bear children for distress, Because they are the offspring made up of those blessed by Jehovah, And their descendants with them.”
LOOKING FORWARD.
While most in the U.S. seem to have been pretty content with their jobs in recent years, there are others who, while grateful to have work, still find it difficult to get through the workday. Many have been in this situation for years, and have gotten by, but have looked forward to a time, under God’s Kingdom, when work would be more refreshing, enjoyable. How might such a change come about?
THE BLESSING OF JEHOVAH.
It is understandable that many companies have had to work hard to remain viable in the economy of recent years, and often they have felt forced to tighten the work ethic of their employees, to squeeze out every dime possible in profit, just to get by. Of course, sometimes this is because stock companies are driven to gradually increase profits, rather than just to remain profitable. However, under the rule of God’s Kingdom, good companies to remain will prove more reliant upon God for His blessing on their activities. They will be willing to submit to God’s direction as provided through His son. In recent years, emphasis has more often been placed on the dollar, with some attempt at maintaining a level of security and peace in the workplace. In the process, proper freedoms and happiness of the workers have often been left behind. While the money is a vital part of business, it is “the blessing of Jehovah that makes rich, and He adds no pain with it.” If all look to Jehovah and Christ, there is little reason why most good businesses would not be able to thrive while ensuring the security, peace, and also the happiness of those working for them.
NOTHING BETTER!
Because of emphasis on certain scriptures, while neglecting others, some have come to believe God’s new world would be largely work-free, but rather, God made it a gift to man to see good for all his hard work. In fact, Ecclesiastes 2 says “24 There is nothing better for a man than to eat and drink and find enjoyment in his hard work. This too, I have realized, is from the hand of the true God.” Thus, our work should be purposeful, and beneficial toward mankind and in harmony with the will of God. Then, we may rejoice in our contribution to society, to a peaceful, prosperous and happy new world. Of course, there would be time for rest and relaxation. In fact, Ecclesiastes 4 says “6 Better is a handful of rest than two handfuls of hard work and chasing after the wind.” And Micah 4 says “4 They will sit, each one under his vine and under his fig tree, And no one will make them afraid, For the mouth of Jehovah of armies has spoken.” While this prophecy is yet future, still can we not begin to think along the lines of new world living, and start incorporating better habits that will carry us into an eternity of happiness?
WORK SCHEDULES.
While there is a variety of work schedules in our economy, for various reasons at each business, there are certain schedules that have become commonplace, and others that have contributed to more peace and enjoyment among workers. What if it was possible to have a common agreeable and reasonable work schedule that gave more time off to workers, while still allowing most a substantial workweek? What if we could “push reset,” and agree on a better schedule for most businesses? One that has found much favor is the four-day, 8-10 hour schedule, especially one that alternates between a Monday and Tuesday start from week to week. Why this? What if you started work on a Tuesday, and worked four days through Friday, looking forward to a normal two-day weekend. Then, the next week, you began Monday, and worked through Thursday, and this time, rather than a two-day weekend, you could enjoy a four-day weekend, Friday through Monday? Would that not allow for some extended freedom and enjoyment on the part of many, determining how best to utilize those four days off, every other weekend? The 10-hour per day schedule is less intrusive to life than a 12-hour schedule, which in practice begins to wear on many people, especially through night work. Some businesses could thrive on the forty-hour workweek, while others may be able to do just as well with a 8- or 9-hour day, and a 32- or 36-hour workweek. However, some factories may need continued work through the rest of the week. What if some workers wanted or needed extra work, and chose to extend their workweek into the Friday and/or Saturday for one week, and into the Saturday for the next? They might need the extra pay, at least for a time. What if other workers could work part-time, just the Friday and/or Saturday one week, and just the Saturday the next? Perhaps the alternating Monday could be downtime used for maintenance personnel on factory equipment, or the part-time workers could also work this day as well. Would not these part-time workers be good candidates to substitute during the regular week when an employee needs or wants off for some reason? The part-time workers could thus substitute during the week on occasion.
OTHER MATTERS.
Also, as mentioned, some jobs are more challenging than others to maintain throughout a workday, such as some factory jobs. If we could "push reset," in many cases, could it be possible for the speed of the equipment to be cut back, even just a bit, to take some of the constant pressure or tension off of many workers, while still maintaining reasonable productivity? Understandably, the timing of some machinery may be such that this is not a simple task to achieve. Still,we shouldn't forget that happy workers can be productive workers! Thinking creatively, with God's blessing, there may be other ways to maintain profitability. As well, what if, wherever possible or appropriate, some of the more experienced workers, who’ve perhaps over the years filled several positions in the work at various times, could become sort of “relief workers,” able to fill in for a worker who could use a break for a time, for a drink and a chance to relax, make a phone call, etc. before returning? These relief workers may well know the more trying jobs, and could provide assistance to these more often than others. They might also help each other to learn jobs or skills they may not yet know well enough. And they may start their day by filling in for one of the workers who, on occasion, could meet with a supervisor to discuss progress and improvement on the job, as well as any issues that are impeding productivity or job contentment. Having kind and understanding supervisors, of course, would go a long way to promoting job satisfaction. A relief worker could thus also be available for filling in if someone had a genuine emergency and couldn’t come in, until a replacement shows up for work. Then, certainly, job assignments should be examined on occasion to look for ways to make them less demanding, and more reasonably accommodating to an average worker. And, utilizing workers in the right place may also be useful, as some workers thrive on excitement and busy-ness, while others may tend to be more thoughtful and thorough. Most, still, can rise to the occasion when called upon to do so, but a mismatch of personality could create unnecessary tension in an otherwise contented worker.
OTHER WAYS.
Another fair group of ideas considered in recent months involved INTERVALS of quite productive work time, with short breaks to refresh, have a snack, drink, converse, etc. the plan involves both short-term and long-term breaks throughout the work day. Short-term breaks would be after about 5 3/4 minutes of steady work, with the next 1/4 minute or so typically used to catch up on remaining work after the equipment ceases to send work to the employee. Wherever possible, the machines may continue to operate--just without the materials or products being sent through. The employees could catch up any remaining products, and then have up to 1 1/2 minutes to rest, refresh, etc. Long-term breaks would involve a more complete shutdown of equipment, or having a substitute worker if really necessary. The plan involves one shorter start-up period to assess how the equipment is operating this day, and worker productivity. It may be, for instance, a morning start of equipment at 7:15am working, still with short-term breaks, for 30 minutes. Then a 15 minute shutdown, for mechanics to address any issues that may have arisen during the first half-hour. Also, if a worker needed to have time off for some serious reason, that first half-hour would give time for a replacement to show up, and begin substitution. Following this would be a solid 1 3/4 hours of work with short-term breaks, from 8am to 9:45 am. After 1 3/4 hours, the recommendation is typically for a 30-minute mid-morning break, to both recover and possibly plan ahead for the next work period, from 10:15 until 12:00. This would then allow for a full lunch hour perhaps, if reasonable, or perhaps just 30 minutes if all can agree that it would allow for an earlier end to the work day. If 1 hour, then work would restart at 1:00 until 2:45, or 3:00pm, if paid for time from 7am until 3pm, an 8-hour work day.If not able to pay employees for all break times, then the 2:45 time would allow for a 15 minute break, with additional work from 3pm until 4:45. Adjustments to this schedule could be made as needed locally. It has been said that "Happy workers are productive workers." May we give consideration to both employers and employees, and find the happy meeting between efficiency and worker contentment, the meeting point possibly satisfying both needs effectively.
ANOTHER IDEA TO CONSIDER.
One more proposal to help with other types of work, such as services in food and other businesses would require acceptance by most people for it to prove beneficial, but stands to provide great satisfaction for stressed workers. Let's take a fast-food restaurant, for example. The plan is for all to acknowledge the need for workers to have catch-up time for restocking things and cleaning, maintaining equipment, and refreshing themselves. What if all recognize a 45-minute period from the top of the hour, for ordering items at the counter. If everyone knows this, then they can plan accordingly. There might be a 5-minute or more additional time during especially busy times of day for those already in line. This would allow throughout the day for the workers to accomplish other things as mentioned above, with workers more ready than ever to begin accepting orders at the top of the hour. Depending on the nature of other businesses, the same might go for office workers, where the 45 minutes would mostly be for worker calls and interactions of a business nature, with the 15 minutes for some refreshment, some conversation, or catch-up time on some pressing projects. OR this could be FLIPPED, with 45 minutes of steady work without calls to interrupt, and then the 15 minutes of time being for refreshment while accepting phone interactions between workers, or possibly others if permissible. The employers could make this call depending on the nature of the work and business.
TRUE SUCCESS.
Thus, most good businesses could do well in such a scenario, as they look to God to bless their efforts and their work to be successful and profitable. You may have noticed Sunday work has not been mentioned. Could not Jehovah’s hand be on the matter, to bless and reward a business that acknowledges His Sabbath requirement, to allow workers time off for spiritual matters? Psalm 127:1 says: “127 Unless Jehovah builds the house, It is in vain that its builders work hard on it. Unless Jehovah guards the city, It is in vain that the guard stays awake.” Therefore, God’s blessing should be sought paramount on one’s business, with the realization that God’s loving and wise ways contribute to true success! Certainly Jehovah can assist with finding the contracts or work necessary to keep a business thriving, or at least afloat through an occasional downtime. In this, TRUE success could be found, in looking to God and wisely supporting the doing of His will toward mankind!
CONCLUSION
LOOK TO JEHOVAH.
What blessings could be in store if most all can be respectful of, and agreeable to, God’s direction for the work that will be done to promote security, peace, and happiness among mankind under the rule of His son! When a business owner and fellow employees look to Jehovah for His blessing, in a work that has His smile of approval, while humbly seeking to be guided by God’s wisdom in business and work activities, there is a good chance of it proving successful. If such a business does start to decline, pray about the matter, and look for the answer, trusting that God may well supply it if we act in faith, or deep trust in Him. Proverbs 3:5-6 says this: “5 Trust in Jehovah with all your heart, And do not rely on your own understanding. 6 In all your ways take notice of him, And he will make your paths straight.” Such is the path of a righteous one. Proverbs 4:18 says “18 But the path of the righteous is like the bright morning light That grows brighter and brighter until full daylight.” Revelation also holds promise of a new and better world. After promising an end to such things as death, pain and sorrow, God offers this message: "And the One seated on the throne said: “Look! I am making all things new.” Also he says: “Write, for these words are faithful and true.” (Revelation 21:3-5). May we all look forward to the promised blessings of God’s Kingdom, and the conditions for which human hearts long—the genuine security, peace, happiness, prosperity and freedom that belong to the people of Jehovah!

ISSUE AFTER ISSUE ADDRESSED BY GOD’S KINGDOM: IMMIGRATION
Last week’s conclusion included this thought: Tears of sorrow will all but vanish as we address issue after issue needing attention to be in harmony with GOD’s loving ways and wondrous Word! Let’s look at another issue that needs to be addressed in this nation, the United States, in a reasonable and fair way:
IMMIGRATION
JUSTICE?
There is a heavy backlog of cases for those wishing to enter our country properly. In fact, last August, the load of cases reached 1 million, not counting an additional 0.3 million “pending” cases. Most must wait months or years for their cases to complete, and many (not all) cases drag on for nearly two years time! At that time, these cases were evidently being handled by less than 500 judges in the court system. With respect to the president, this may have increased since then, and of course these judges work tirelessly to do what they can, and deserve much commendation. How did God feel about such foreigners in His land of Israel? The people of Israel had become foreign residents in the land of Egypt, before God saved them from slavery there. Likewise many early settlers in the land of the United States had been persecuted religiously in their former land, and were able to escape from such to serve God freely in this land. Thus, in this setting, God told Israel they must view them as He views them:
Deuteronomy 10:18-19 “He executes justice for the fatherless child and the widow and loves the foreign resident, giving him food and clothing. You too must love the foreign resident, for you became foreign residents in the land of Egypt.”
When a case arose involving a foreigner, it was to be handled fairly—impartially, the foreigner was not to be misjudged, but treated as fairly as a native of the land. As Moses had instructed Israel:
Deuteronomy 1:16 “At that time I instructed your judges, ‘When you hear a case between your brothers, you are to judge with righteousness between a man and his brother or a foreign resident.”
How might issues involving immigrants or the increasing migrants at our border looking for a safe refuge be resolved adequately? Supposing God’s Kingdom was to begin rule first in this land, before gradually extending to other lands? How might this potentially grievous situation be handled?
FIRST
, the case process needs to be streamlined. It is taking far too long to resolve many cases. The qualifications and standards to be met need to be clarified to all, that they may have all necessary information in order and receive judgment more quickly. Would it not be reasonable for any who wish to apply to enter this country legally to be able to be heard in a matter of weeks at most, and have a resolved case within a week or two afterward? Let’s streamline the process early on, so the cases do not unnecessarily drag out.
NEXT
, it will take some time to reduce the caseload. We need additional experienced or qualified judges to handle more cases, to speed up this process. While taking some time, even several years, certain cases may still be earmarked for more urgent attention, as with those in special need of refuge. Let’s set a maximum goal of 10 years time to resolve all cases, until most every case can be handled in a matter of 1-2 weeks time. Let’s find all those recently retired judges who are now receiving their due social security payments, who are willing to come back for a time, receiving wages along with their SSI payments, to reach a total of 110% of their former wage before retirement. Any who would come back for 5 years may receive this wage for that entire time. Thus there may be some monetary incentive to returning to help with this caseload, but should still be considered a labor of love. Also, let those judges who are in their last 5 years of service consider as well extending their work for an additional 5 years, at 110% of their wages at the time they would otherwise be retiring. Thus, there can be, with God’s blessing, an adequate number of experienced judges to handle the additional caseload.
THEN
, where are they to work, when the normal legal process must take place in the courts during the day? Why not arrange for a night court to handle these additional cases, in the same courtrooms as being used in the daytime? Additional security can be hired and provisions put in place to reasonably handle this new arrangement. The number of additional judges should not exceed the available courtroom space for night-time work.
HOW
will all this be paid for? Remember, most of those wishing to immigrate to this land are coming from a place of meager means—often they are barely able to feed their families. Getting even a menial job in this land can be far more lucrative than employment in their former land. Why not require family heads to pay a percentage of their wages over 5 years time, gradually reducing the amount each year, until they are free of such? Let’s start with 10% the first year, then drop to 8% the next, and so on until the fifth year they need only give 2%. This will not only pay for the additional judges and costs of running the night court system, but may also make possible a fund for some sort of social intervention where needed in some cases. This 5-year time is evidently also the minimum time someone must hold a green card before they may qualify to become a U.S. citizen. Thus when they’ve paid their last dues, they know they now meet at least that part of the criteria.
ALSO
, during the time that a family’s case comes up to be heard, and is ongoing, why not take this opportunity to educate this family as regards the laws and value system of our country? We might ensure computer/internet access and a series of instructional tutorials etc. to accomplish this. After all, God required foreign residents of Israel to keep the same laws, and suffer the same penalties for violating them. Thus, they will need to learn these things to live in our land, and abide by such. Thus, God instructed Israel:
Deuteronomy 31:12 Gather the people together, the men, the women, the children, and your foreign resident who is within your cities, in order that they may listen and learn about and fear Jehovah your God and take care to carry out all the words of this Law.
CONCLUSION
JUSTICE.
While other aspects of immigration also need to be addressed, certainly a program such as this could be a fine starting point for dealing with the current situation. Why, there may even be enough money in the immigration fund to assist with payment of a hotel stay for those having their cases heard in the court. God’s Kingdom will no doubt lovingly address all such issues in an adequate way, that the conditions foretold for the earth can become a reality—a lovely just and peaceful Paradise, both spiritually, and physically!

ISSUE AFTER ISSUE ADDRESSED BY GOD'S KINGDOM: Controlled Usage of Firearms
1John 4:8: "Whoever does not love has not come to know God, because God is love."
Matthew 22:39: "The second, like it, is this: ‘You must love your neighbor as yourself.’
INTRODUCTION:
KINGDOM RULE.
Certainly this is a matter for concern when we contemplate the Genuinely Peaceful World that God has purposed under His Kingdom Rule through His son. Why, one of the Ten Commandments is quite clear in saying "You musn't murder." Rather, you are to "love your neighbor as yourself," after the greatest commandment that Jesus identified, to "love Jehovah your God with all your heart, soul (or, life), mind and strength." Therein lies a key, as Jesus said that this love actually forms the basis for the entire Law of God, and for the teachings of His word. (Matthew 22:36-40). We must comprehend that, as 1John 4:8,16 identify, God's greatest quality or attribute is genuine, kind and loyal love, these verses stating that "God IS love." And the Scriptures also make clear that this love is not only for a few, but as 2Peter 3:9 and many other verses clarify, "God does not want anyone to be destroyed, but desires ALL to attain repentance." He wishes everyone to realize the truth of His merciful love, and turn back from all badness, seeking His help to overcome any challenge to living in a good way with Him and others. He has purposed the fulfillment of true lasting peace earth-wide, even Universally! These things must be understood first, before consideration of the controlled usage of any weapon that threatens the life, peace, and freedoms that God has purposed to exist for all willingly submissive to His Kingdom Rulership.
PROPER USAGE.
Secondly, however, and almost nearly as important, is realizing that God has blessed the proper usage of firearms for those intending to protect families, communities, and the entire world from any who would hold and promote mistaken views that actually threaten the same life, peace, and freedoms we hold dear, and which God Himself wants all to eventually acknowledge and appreciate. Certainly all should desire that such weapons be in the hands of those comprehending the things mentioned previously with a sound mind and good judgement in their controlled use.
GOOD JUDGEMENT.
Being physiological human beings, however, it is possible that some possibly addictive substances or pollutions, or even infections of some sort could temporarily affect an otherwise wise human being, and possibly render them a threat to using a weapon in a reasonable way. God can certainly bless an arrangement allowing anyone in such circumstances to receive assistance for correcting such a situation, and in most cases, not even having to require the removal of firearms from that one's possession. But it should be acknowledged that it is possible in some situations that it may be necessary to do so, hopefully that person realizing the need for it himself and willingly giving them up on a temporary basis, until being restored to soundness of mind, and giving proof thereof, to have his right restored. This notion is indeed supported by the U.S. Constitution--in fact, in the very Preamble. This states the entire purpose for the document that has formed the basis for U.S. law--the purposes that guide an outline of what is just and right in such matters as these.
ONE RECOMMENDATION.
One recommendation that should strongly assist with good cooperation in all of this is to form a Police Department Association (PDA), allowing, not only police officers, but members of the surrounding community desiring to exercise their right to bear arms, to receive regular instruction by the Police Department, with reminders and current law updates, etc., associating together, enabling local officers to get to know other respectable members of the community and encourage proper thinking such as they themselves have acquired. Another major concern to give attention is the playing of video games that are virtually life-like, but that include shoot-em-up games perhaps even in a war-like setting. What thought patterns are being made if such games seem so realistic, but fail to encourage respect for life in a fantasy or make-believe world? In all fairness, it is certainly possible for the gaming world to make games that can teach proper thought-patterns to instruct those having joined the armed forces, eager to practice the teamwork and lessons they are already being taught in the real world.
IN A SIMILAR VEIN.
Likewise, another worthy proposal is to have important members of the community, such as police officers, prominent officials in local government and possibly church and business leaders to come together in a sport that is excellent for promoting respect and good thinking habits. The sport is golf, where one lines up and thinks carefully about his shot and it's consequences before finally "pulling the trigger." Community members can be supportive, even as some enjoy learning to play, not taking their game too seriously at first, working on improving their own game gradually, instead of comparing their gameplay with others, leading to egopride or excessive discouragement. This may be the subject of another CTC Policy altogether, potentially letting golf courses become closer to parks more accessible to the public eye.
CHOICE OF FIREARMS.
Then there is the matter of firearm manufacturers and selection. This can be a far more significant decision than many realize, as it has been advanced that certain weapon types in past history have rarely been used to kill someone unlawfully, or improperly. This history should be looked into and researched to verify, but there are those having used these weapons in the past, or perhaps treated wounds, who could substantiate these claims. Two of the weapons I recommend along these lines are the Colt 45 and a 38 Special. Also, rifles as used for hunting for the purpose of feeding one's family or others should also be permitted controlled usage. There are occasional incidents involving bears and other wild animals in which such a weapon may protect human life.
HOW ABOUT IT.
However, what if something could be used to deter someone or a creature at first, as if a warning shot, prior to the use of a regular bullet for the weapon? Is it not God's blessing that we seek on our use of such weaponry? Can he not assist us in the situation, whatever it may be, to be successful and defend the lives of innocent ones? I believe the blessing of God would be proven upon this concept--to use BBs as a first shot deterrent. It could still be followed quickly with a real bullet if truly needed, but it may be that a well-placed shot could deter one wrongfully opposing justice. When it comes to animals, it has been recommended that a bear be shot in the paw to deter it's advancement. An understanding of people and certain common animals could well prove useful in preventing wrongful deaths and other tragedies.
CONCLUSION
A RENEWED LOOK.
While other matters and details still need to be considered, perhaps these concepts can form the basis for a renewed look at this highly important issue going forward, as God's Kingdom proceeds to exert wonderful rulership in the United States and abroad. God's word and standards should be the hallmark in the making of truly beneficial regulations, or lines of living, for people to understand, recognize and follow. Recall this proverb, found in chapter 10 verse 22: "It is the blessing of Jehovah that makes one rich, And He adds no pain with it." God's purpose is ultimately to eliminate death, sorrow and pain from mankind! Revelation 21:3-5 puts it plainly: "With that I heard a loud voice from the throne say: “Look! The tent of God is with mankind, and he will reside with them, and they will be his people. And God himself will be with them. 4 And he will wipe out every tear from their eyes, and death will be no more, neither will mourning nor outcry nor pain be anymore. The former things have passed away.”5 And the One seated on the throne said: “Look! I am making all things new.” Also he says: “Write, for these words are faithful and true.”
___CTC CORNER (4)
COME TO CONSENSUS CORNER
This past policy is shared prior to finishing the policy on Zeroing Traffic Deaths (ZTD), as this is certainly one important factor in such cases.
Week 14: ISSUE BY ISSUE ADDRESSED BY GOD’S KINGDOM: Drunk Driving
ALCOHOL’S EFFECTS.
While deaths caused by drunk driving may have been dropping a little over the past few years, most would agree that more needs to be done. Each year, in the United States, over 10,000 people lose their lives to an accident caused by at least one person driving drunk. It is well established that drinking alcohol lowers a person’s inhibitions, or restraints. In other words, alcohol allows the brain to relax, and to a degree, to let loose. This letting loose contributes to many temporarily becoming more outgoing, social. Wine is thus presented in God's word as a gift to man. Among other things provided by God, Psalm 104:15 then mentions "And wine that makes man's heart rejoice, Oil that makes the face shine, And bread that sustains the heart of mortal man." Yet as with many gifts, this one can also be abused. Upon such drinking, while people may thus say things they wouldn’t ordinarily say, their conduct can also be affected. If then attempting to drive, for instance, they may take risks they wouldn’t ordinarily take, and make poorer judgments. But that is not all—the more alcohol that is consumed, physical coordination and motor skills also decline. People become less able to handle the myriad decisions that are required to safely operate a motor vehicle. Their reaction time is dramatically affected, causing them to take longer, even much longer, to respond to sudden occurrences as happen often when driving a vehicle on public roadways. All the while, many of these persons somehow still believe they are just as capable of driving as they normally are without alcohol in their system. What a false sense of security!
BLOOD-ALCOHOL LEVELS.
While much research could be done into various sources of alcohol, and whether some drinks have more of an affect than others, the bottom line usually is found in the amount of alcohol that enters the bloodstream, which can be measured as a BAC level, standing for Blood-Alcohol-Concentration. For U.S. states, typically 0.08% BAC will result in a DUI, or Driving Under the Influence charge if suspected of drunk driving or involved in an accident. Federal law sets this as a minimum to define drunk driving, and for commercial drivers the level is 0.04% that can result in a conviction. Most states also now have even stiffer penalties for exceeding higher limits, such as 0.15% BAC. Being able to recognize that it was a drunk driver that caused a serious accident is one thing, but now what can be done about this ongoing catastrophe? One person dies in the U.S. on average every 50 minutes from a motor vehicle incident involving a drunk driver. About 10% of these are pedestrians. And on a typical weekend night, alcohol is involved in some 50% of deaths involving motor vehicles! Many of us may be taking this matter a little too lightly--who of us would like to be responsible for such a tragedy??? While the resurrection will restore innocent life and people can be mercifully forgiven, God’s Kingdom will not allow this to continue! How can this be remedied? We might start by making sure we're educated about how blood-alcohol levels are affected by drinking. Those going out for drinks might consider finding a BAC Calculator app for their phone or other device, helping to gain understanding as to how various drinks affect these levels per gender and body weight. For example, if two servings give someone a BAC of 0.04%, which is a level that can cause "impaired driving," each hour this will typically drop by 0.015%, so in two hours the level would be approximately 0.01%, if afterward choosing non-alcoholic beverages, this much better for most driving. What else can be done?
DESIGNATED DRIVERS.
One matter that could quickly be instituted, wherever this is not already practiced, is to require bar and restaurant attendants to request from a group of customers eager to consume alcoholic beverages to identify their “designated driver(s).” These individuals may choose to refrain from any alcoholic beverage, or may be allowed a familiar beverage or two, depending on body weight, and length of stay, be it a can of beer, a glass of wine, or a shot of strong drink. These each deliver on average about the same amount of alcohol. Having identified these individuals, a waiter or waitress can keep an eye on them, to support their determination to remain capable of driving safely upon leaving. DD’s should take their responsibility seriously, knowing that authorities may be contacted if they violate their proper limits. These should be able to choose from a fine selection of non-alcoholic beverages to enjoy on this occasion. Some restaurants might even offer a discount on such beverages to these designated drivers, to encourage safe practices, but at least having these drinks made available demonstrates support for this arrangement. Where taxis are widely available, an outing may be planned both coming and going, so an entire group might share more freely in their alcohol consumption.
LICENSE INFORMATION.
Another matter that can be addressed is that of information available on Driver’s Licenses. Are not drinkers carded to ensure proper age? While licenses typically have information used to positively identify someone, such as a face, eye color and height, one thing is often missing that can help someone to know how much alcohol can be consumed—a person’s weight! While there are a few factors involved, still we find typically that a larger, heavier person can handle a bit more alcohol than a smaller, lighter person. Also, it has come to my attention that there are some individuals on planet Earth that are able to handle alcohol much better than the average human--their BAC is not affected the same as others. Therefore, besides a weight indication on a person's license, there might also be shown an AAF--Alcohol Assimilation Factor--perhaps from between 1 and 3. A level of 3 would indicate the person can handle at least three times the amount of alcohol as the normal person. There can be some provision put in place for a person to have their BAC tested, perhaps at the local DMV, to indicate the proper factor on their license. In general, a person's weight can be a good guide. While weight can change over time, most people tend to remain within a certain range. An easy standard could be set at 10%. If your weight changes and is expected to remain at least 10% higher or lower than what would currently be on your license, then a new license could be obtained, reflecting the change. A person’s weight can easily be determined, in case the new license hasn’t been received yet, or if there is reason to believe it is substantially different than what is stated on the license. Generally, then, three or four different standards could be set, one for those weighing approximately 150 lbs, then 200 lbs, and 250 lbs. Then anyone 300 lbs or more could hold to a standard set for 300. Restaurants can look at the typical alcohol content of each of it’s beverages, and establish reasonable drinking limits based on body weight. They could then help their patrons avoid going beyond these reasonable limits, as the alcohol begins to impair the judgment of those consuming it. Also, if a group plans to spend considerable time on this occasion, could they be offered a pitcher of an inexpensive supplemental non-alcoholic beverage at a fair price, to potentially reduce the risk of heavy drinking?
LABELLING.
And why couldn’t pre-packaged alcoholic beverages be labelled with recommended limits based on these weight guidelines? A beverage might say that anyone planning to drive limit themselves to a single beverage serving or two, depending on body weight, while recommending numbers such as 3-4-5 serving limits for instance, each for a 150lb, 200lb, and 250lb consumer. These could show amounts recommended over a certain period of time, long enough for the alcohol typically to be processed by the body and leave the system. If this was required by law on all alcoholic beverage products, according to clear guidelines, then no company would gain an unfair or unscrupulous economic advantage by ignoring such a life-promoting practice. Thus, with a little help, people can come to realize what it means in actual practice to drink responsibly.
ONE MORE THREAT.
Another significant issue that needs attention is the organic fermenting substance used in the making of a particular brand's beverage. It has become clear that certain beverages, or germal intrusion thereof, has caused a drink to become quite threatening to clear thinking, such as with the near-complete loss of a sense of consequences--outside of the normal BAC range problem. If a drink has been found to cause an otherwise safe drinker to uncharacteristically "keep going" with seemingly no limit, this is an example of possibly a drink's contaminating influence, likely from a particular yeast or fungus used in it's making. This particular situation may be much more responsible for drunk driving deaths than most have yet come to realize. May we not overlook this very serious threat to all of us, and may beverage-makers take reports seriously along these lines, and be quick to remedy any such issue.
MOTIVATION. How gratifying to everyone if statistics for drunk driving accidents could be compiled and made available to the public more quickly than 6 months after a year’s data is received! Let’s make ways to share and compile this data more quickly, perhaps state by state, so we can begin to monitor the success of these endeavors and make needed adjustments wherever necessary. To further protect innocent lives, we might also arrange for the government to subsidize the cost of a taxi ride for anyone who winds up in a situation in which they haven't the funds but refuse to drive home after having too much alcohol to drink, as well as the ride the next day if needed to obtain their vehicle. Restaurants and bars should gladly allow such a vehicle to remain in their lot overnight in such situations. Even if a parking ticket must be paid along a city street, this should in no way be considered equitable to the risk to innocent life.
CONCLUSION
WHAT DELIGHT!
As we see the number of accidents and deaths drop dramatically, how delighted we will be to the praise of our loving Father, Jehovah! He hates to see the innocent suffer—why He even takes no delight in someone corrupt having to die! As Ezekiel 18:23 says: “23 “‘Do I take any delight at all in the death of someone corrupt,’ is the utterance of the Sovereign Lord Jehovah, ‘[and] not in that he should turn back from his ways and actually keep living?’” Going forward, may we be determined never to become guilty of risking the precious lives of others by getting behind the wheel of a vehicle after going beyond proper limits of an alcoholic beverage. And may we rejoice to see the day when God's word is fulfilled in saying, such as at Isaiah 25:8-9: " He will swallow up death forever, And the Sovereign Lord Jehovah will wipe away the tears from all faces. The reproach of his people he will take away from all the earth, For Jehovah himself has spoken it. 9 In that day they will say: “Look! This is our God! We have hoped in him, And he will save us. This is Jehovah! We have hoped in him. Let us be joyful and rejoice in the salvation by him.”

ISSUE BY ISSUE ADDRESSED BY GOD'S KINGDOM: Zeroing Traffic Deaths
Isaiah 25:8a "He will swallow up death forever, And the Sovereign Lord Jehovah will wipe away the tears from all faces."
Isaiah 11:9 "They will not cause any harm Or any ruin in all my holy mountain, Because the earth will certainly be filled with the knowledge of Jehovah As the waters cover the sea."
BLESSINGS FROM GOD.
Surely, the blessings promised under God's Kingdom are wondrous and numerous. But without the proper mindset concerning the timing of God's Kingdom, we may never be able to rid ourselves of reckless behavior, disease, and death. Jehovah, through His beloved Son and chosen kingly representative, is to oversee God's promised rewards, as policies issuing from this source, the true source having God's blessing, will be able to accomplish God's will. God's will is that people be saved from any life-threatening disaster, particularly saved from adverse judgement, by supporting His Kingdom's laws and instructions based on God's word, including of course governmental laws also blessed by God. 1Timothy 2:3-4 spell out God's will for humans in these words: "This is fine and acceptable in the sight of our Savior, God,4 whose will is that people everywhere should be saved and come to an accurate knowledge of truth." Do we not want to see an end to sickness, aging physically beyond the proper age of a truly healthy life, and the death that God intends to "swallow up"? He's promised a resurrection of our dear loved ones, to welcome them back even to a cleansed earth, blessed by God. (Acts 24:15). It is God's government alone that can bring this about--let's welcome this change directed by God through His Son, having faith in the ransom provision of this one's sacrifice, a thankful trust in this one for everlasting life!
PRACTICAL STEPS.
One vital change along these lines we must give attention to is the matter of careful driving, looking out for the lives of others and our own while behind the wheel. While it's important to think along the lines of having God's blessing on our activities, we must also take practical steps to help ensure we can live God's way and care for the lives of one another. One very important aspect of this policy is in PLANNING TIME for making good, safe, careful decisions when the lives of others may be at risk. Such situations may be quite often when operating a motor vehicle. Pedestrians may be at every corner for some drivers, so it's paramount to manage your time wisely if you want to be somewhere on time. While you should thus always plan time, even an extra 5 minutes for those few-second hesitations to ensure safety, there should also be allowances, even if there are penalties, for arriving late to a destination, if it was in the interests of not risking lives. How much would it matter if someone was seriously wounded or even killed in the process of getting somewhere "on time"? The wisest course all the way around is to take a short time to carefully ascertain how long it really should take to get somewhere, then add a few minutes at least for completely safe driving, for unexpected stops like buses and trains, and even being somewhere a few minutes before last second, so as not to feel rushed and to be considerate of the time of others you may be meeting with.
OVERLY TIRED, ETC.
Another area needing attention is avoiding driving while overly tired, or under the influence of excess alcohol and other substances. You should find, or have help to find, certain things that can make a real difference in how you are feeling if it is a matter such as tiredness. There may be many things that can perk you up, perhaps just a cup, to keep you perky for your trip. Aim to always have such things on hand if this has become a real issue currently. If you need to pull over somewhere for a brief nap when you have no other alternative, this should be permitted in the interests of safety for all! Also, as mentioned in my separate drunk driving policy, there have been found certain alcoholic beverages made from bad yeast/fungal strains that have caused people to do things such as drive without any consideration to consequences. Sometimes the extent of this effect is far more than normal alcoholic influence. This needs to be corrected swiftly--reports of such incidents should be carefully investigated to ascertain the real cause, considering the past behavior of the person in these matters as well. Beverage makers should not be quick to dismiss complaints about such things, especially if this is a recurring issue.
CROSSWALKS, SCOOT SPEED.
Also, crosswalk lights should be reviewed, especially where there have been incidents occurring. I would make a recommendation that another crosslight symbol be included--that of a SCOOT speed crossing. While the normal WALK speed should be maintained, there are instances where only a faster paced jog or scoot across the street would make possible a crossing when the walk timing would not work. In some instances, showing the number of seconds remaining is very helpful, but see if the double to triple the walking speed as SCOOT might not also be possible. Then, check everything in the crosswalk patterns, because there have been times when a pedestrian believes it is safe to cross, when cars are still able to move into their path. There needs to be some laws clarification, crosslight changes, signage or other interventions to prevent misunderstandings about crossing safety! Laws clarification should include fairer laws about when crossing streets apart from crosswalks is acceptable--with clearing both ways behind foreseeable traffic at lights, for instance. One more thing--let's make sure we can see our pedestrians, motorcyclists and bicyclists, with adequate reflectors and fluorescent or neon colors of some sort--please beware of wearing dark colors at night!
HIGHWAY SPEEDS.
This policy cannot be complete without explaining the need for the right speed. Do we really want high speed crashes to result in tragic deaths of our dear friends, loved ones, or neighbors? It seems we rarely hear the numbers, but what if you found that in 2020 traffic fatalities topped 35,000, including pedestrians and bikers? These are not just injuries, but actual deaths from accidents. Even when the numbers drop, it's hard to think of it per month. So many of our cars and other vehicles on the road currently were not designed for the speeds we would like to be able to drive on the highway, unless there is so little traffic perhaps in some far out areas. It is the speed that has been causing crashes to result in pinning people in, behind the steering wheel, protruding further than it should. There needs to be greater distance, at least another 12 inches, between the engine compartment and the driver, to allow a crash, with current safety measures such as belts and airbags, to prevent loss of life at the greater speeds we've wanted to go. With proper measures taken, we could actually increase some lanes to 80 mph! But with current vehicles, there has been abundant proof that traffic crash deaths can only be eliminated with current vehicle design by using the limit of 55/56 mph. By stating it as 56, we are then able to drive in good conscience at 55.00-55.99 without any violation of the limit. I recommend that the law be made to allow an occasional rise to about 60 when building speed to 55, as long as it is without intention and quickly drops back to the max of 55 as is possible.
ARRIVING SAFELY.
Still, I believe there may be circumstances where one could allow passing up to 60 mph for no more than about 9-10 seconds, to avoid unsafely travelling right beside another car when it can be avoided. The lawful times should be recognized, however, to avoid travelling such a speed excessively. That speed should only be to remedy an unsafe situation where necessary. If it has been shown or demonstrated that some current vehicle models are not needing additional space between the engine compartment and the driver, it may be that some lanes such as HOV lanes could be repurposed to permit higher speeds than 56. For life to be considered precious for all of us, why not let the media tell us the statistics, as they are compiled, perhaps month to month, that we may have reassurance in our determination to eliminate all traffic deaths that should not be occurring as they have been. As we hear the numbers drop, and grow in faith in having the right laws in place, and stop the senseless losses of life, we can be encouraged to allow that extra time to arrive at our destinations safely and in good conscience, rejoicing in our travels to be among family, friends, coworkers, and the like, in the peaceful new world of God's making!
GOD'S PROMISE!
May we once again reflect on God's promise of Revelation 21, where God promises that He will figuratively pitch tent with mankind, and He will wipe out every tear from our eyes, and death will be no more, neither mourning in grief, outcry, nor pain be anymore. These things WILL pass away. Then God guarantees that He is making all things new, and that these words are faithful and true. (Revelation 21:3-5). God desires that we all rejoice in whatever measures He knows we need to take for Him to make true all His promises, including His desire to "swallow up death forever...and wipe the tears from all faces!" (Isaiah 25:8). The time is upon us, to recognize where we are in the stream of time, and stop missing out on what God is bringing about. Let's not kick the can down the road much longer, but rather acknowledge God's Kingdom in the ways that we now should, so as to experience the promised blessings just as God now wishes that we do! His mighty holy spirit can certainly help one and all to make needed changes in their lives, to bring them in full harmony with God's loving will for mankind, in agreement with His word, bound up in Jesus.

NOTES : (y.726Min, 811Mon 5:59; 6:37-38 am EDT) Hello, wishing all well! Added (3) Proverbs A, chapter 5, verses 18-20. Soon another post update. Now newly posted, the I) Introduction to the Ten Commandments, as well as Updates to all 4 of the other Ten Commandment posts, near the Top of Blogpost 2. (y.725Rih, 810Sun 1:45; 2:31,40,44,54; 3:19; 11:19,44 pm EDT) Hello, wishing all well! I've wanted to remind how this week both calendars, old and new, line up between today through Saturday and Salvtuday. Most new daynames have similarity to 7-Day names, yet underscore a purpose for them by God. As regards a way to clarify which calendar is being referenced, there is preference to the y. designation, an early possibility, as the year is to the left of the decimal. Thus y25.725 indicates this day, 2025, the 7th month (Huli) and the 25th day (alternating Sunday, called Righzday, connected to making Rye or Croissant bread, which is naturally possible to make only on this day every two weeks, Rightdoing and the Sun of righteousness, like Sunday still the First day of the week, and Rizing as an early workweek makes possible the Four-Day weekend break to come afterward. So y25.725 is this day (8/10/25). In this first designation method, y25.725 the month is only one character, which is alphanumeric, with months 10, 11, and 12 being designated as capital A,B, and C. It can also be y25.7/25, which allows for the month to be two digits. Thus both y25.11/25 and y25.07/25 would be acceptable. It may be possible that difference could be recognized between 7(8/10/25) and 8(7/25/25), although in the second case the second number, day of the month, will need to be higher than 31. With the y25.725 designation, this could also be y.725 if the year is not necessary, or just 725 if it is something simple where the year doesn't matter, like the date on the lid of a newly opened carton of milk. Also, to keep track of both, sometimes I use y25.725 and add comma, f or p and 810 referring to the 7day calendar date. Also remember that a 3rd transition calendar would help all to relate closer 7-Day calendar dates to new 8-Day calendar dates, but this would call for referencing a 13th month, one week at a time between some months, but eventually also with more than 31 days, although this adjustment may not be needed THIS year for an accurate transition. Recall the SUM More Orderly Time (Possible Months 7-8 Entry) article below, that discusses this time as an entry point to the new calendar, along with half or more of the world seeing God's gift. Again, this entire week lines up between both calendars, so appointments for next week could be discussed or adjusted, either on the same new dayname, the new monday date for the old monday date, or something else depending on the purpose of the meeting, etc. These appointments could be confirmed, if this changeover should take place. In many places last year, both calendars began to be acknowledged among people even here in the U.S., and some decisions were being based on the new calendar more than the old. There is one issue that hasn't been mentioned, and that's pay times as regards a changeover. Weekly pays could take place on a similar day of the week, although alternating between Starzday (first Friday) and Salvtuday (second Saturday), the second day of the normal four-day break, are recommended, the term Salary being originally based on use of Salt, associated with that day. Other reasons have been presented, and proper planning for this can overcome most if not all concern. The other issue is with Monthly payments. Of course many 7th month payments or early 8th month payments have already been made, but a two-week or 16-day difference between the calendars currently, or 18 days in about a week, could call for another payment with the beginning of a new 8th month. The half-month of time that would have passed by then could make possible a half-month's pay amount, then getting on track to a similar pay schedule based on the 8 day calendar. Alternatively, paydates could change on the new calendar from end or start of months to something mid-month, which would keep the money coming out about the same time as before through the changeover, without need for any additional payment. The above information has now been inserted into the SUM More Orderly Months (Possible Months 7-8 Entry) article below. Also, a (8B) Weekly Golden Apples, WGA-B, (B-507) is now posted, on blogpost 3, Election Integrity 2024-2025. Another update to Finding Truth, par. 15. Correction. Update to WGA-B list. (y.724Fwn, 809Sat 3:09 pm EDT) Hello, wishing all well! I needed to update the article Finding Truth, having been one of my first articles years ago, and I didn't realize there were some statements I used in logic regarding the Trinity teaching that for quite some time I would have not been using, but I had forgotten it was used in this article, and would have been corrected so as not to give a wrong impression, having to do with understanding the term "world" in the Scriptures, which I do address in the more recent article "Finding More Truth". I have updated Finding Truth, and hope that if you questioned anything along those lines in that article, that you look over that portion of it.

(d.628Wnd, f711Fri 10:41 am EDT) Hello, wishing all well! Added to PA (8-2) More Orderly Time article, paragraph just before Month 5, starting "NOW" about recommended adjustment to monthnames 2-4. (d.627Trs, 710Thu 6:58-7:01,19,41; 8:24 am EDT) Hello, wishing all well! I apologize for the delay, I expect to get back to my punctuality that I was known for, throughout my 2020 election year, for example, and afterward, with God's continued blessing! NOTE : As you may realize, I've continued this blogset based on the 400-day calendar (the true one, astronomically, meteorologically, scientifically, etc.), and hopefully which we will acknowledge here, as many localities and regions here in the United States were doing for much time last year! There was some confusion about the reality of this or the connections to my Come to Consensus article, referring to it as the 8-Day Calendar, having God's blessing on new sets of month- and daynames that carry real meaning into our lives, benefitting us more, and underscoring God's interest and love for us. I'm looking to post a few more articles, some Persistent Articles, which I think will replace the Persistent/Introductory Posts designation. Thus PA's will usually be articles that may benefit more people, or benefit people more, in some way, with God's blessing. The full 8-Day Calendar article, as a CTC article, is one I actually thought was posted already this blog cycle, but I wish to post soon today, although it is available on the last blog 3C/8C. I want to review before posting on 4C/8C, blogpost 3 (the C in 4C/8C). I may change referring to blogpost 3 to blogpost C. I may also update the wording of the Educational Note on blogpost 3/C. Update, but article still coming. Article is there, under PA's (Persistent Articles) on blogpost 3/C, as (8-2). There are still other articles I wish to include in the next few days...I've updated that article, month 1, and more updates are possible. (d.626Mnd, 709Wed 8:45-46 am EDT) Hello, wishing all well! Added (3) Proverbs A, chapter 5, verses 1-6, PR-A(5.1). (d.625Rih, 708Tue 6:17,38 am EDT) Hello, wishing all well! Added (4B) Psalm 119 Stanza 12-14 Preview, and Stanza 12 Commentary. Update, format, etc. Update, v.91. (d.623Psm, 706Sun 8:08,35; 9:03,08,46,58 am EDT) Hello, wishing all well! Added to (8B) WGA-B, GA(403), adding to. Added. Update. Formatting, clarity on (8B) location. (d.621Hvn, f704Fri 10:58-59 am; 8:18,28,36; 9:05 pm EDT) Hello, wishing all well and a happy sorta 4th! I've completed the text of the podcast Winit500 theme of last November, w0840-44 U.S. Election for President, 2024. It is in the list under (1B) the Win-it Minute Series work., podcast available on Spotify, elsewhere. Also, don't forget about the Significantly Revised article, What It Means To Be Righteous or Upright, on the Top Menu above. Let's continue to look to God and Christ above, as we navigate current circumstances--there is much we can accomplish together when we look above and stand for what's true and right, and what the Founders of our Nation stood for, the same, and looking for God's blessing for things to be as they should. Let's not assume that just because someone may want us to believe a lie, that we just need to go along with it--that's not who we are! Americans across our nation voted, elected me President of the United States, for good reason, and I'm the one blessed by God to be so, doing what I can despite our circumstances--recall that Donald Trump acknowledged at one point that he was not the President of the United States, but seems to have managed to sweep that under the carpet somehow. Nevertheless we want the best for all, recognizing God's love for all, but we also want our Nation truly as it Should Be, and as GOD will blessing it to Become! ALSO POSTED (7) Proverbs B Commentary, chapter 11 conclusion, verses 27-31! (d.620Wdn, f703Thu 8:03 am; 9:38,55,58; 10:50 pm EDT) Hello, wishing all well! Posted (1B) Winit500, text of Episode 2, w0841 U.S. Election for President, 2024. W5a w0840- under Win-it Minute Series below. NOW also the REVISED ARTICLE, What It Means To Be Righteous or Upright. Titles. Some correction. (d.619Too, f702Wed 9:59 am EDT) Hello, wishing all well! Posted (3) Proverbs A, chapter 4, verses 24-27, concluding chapter 4. (d.618Moo, f701Tue 7:08-09,15,31,44,48,58; 8:03 am; 7:17,59 pm EDT) Hello, wishing all well! Got the Podcast Episode 1 Text posted from yesterday, on the W5a w0840-44 U.S. Election for President 2024, listed under the (1B) Win-it Minute Series, explaining how Donald was attempting to defraud the public by claiming victory in the Presidential election, covering the TRUE results of the election by America. Later, however, as addressed in a later podcast, and after still staging an inauguration, he was willing at one point to be honest with the American people and admit that he was "not the President of the United States", as many who voted for me (and Washington, etc.) hopefully are coming to realize. I've also posted the 2025 Claim to Presidency text in the main body of Winit5to9 Posts, with the more recent Harvard and Issue of Government posts to follow sometime. Formatting, text accuracy. Now also, posted (7) Proverbs B, PR-B(11.5) chapter 11, verses 22-26. Formatting. (d.617Son, f630Mon 5:33-34; 8:56,58; 9:53; 10:22,36,48 am EDT) Hello, wishing all well! I've moved last year's podcast from after the 2024 November election to the top of my Find Life And See Podcast on Spotify, W5a w0840-44 U.S. Election for President 2024. I have a place for the text of this podcast below, which I intend to begin posting today. NOW please consider carefully (when you are able) the PIP article below, Names of God and Christ, Clarified, for a carefully composed revision! You may also see the Note from yesterday, just below, regarding God's Name. Updates. (d.616Fan, f629Sun 10:16,18,34 pm EDT) Hello, wishing all well! As I've occasionally referred to, there has been interference by some, trying to corrupt good work or rob me of much of my own work, whether claiming my own website articles or my podcast work, ideas/designs/patents, etc., and especially even my rightful win as President of the United States, after already being the true 46th President of the United States, fully expecting this time to finally make it to the White House, where I can be and do fully what the American people have looked forward and expect me to be and do. Another thing has come to my attention--my work on restoring God's true name. At one point I was clarifying God's name to be JEHOVAHZ, not Jehovalz. Someone with power attempted to take credit for this, and try to cause confusion about JEHOVALZ, which is now understood to be one of the three GODs that make up the Complete JEHOVAHZ. While knowing Him as a GOD of Vows/Valz, altogether He brings things about, especially His will, in many ways, not only by the keeping of Promises. I'll be updating the website accordingly, and the NAMES of God and Christ article, to again reflect this position. I've already updated the recently posted (4B) Psalm 119 Review 4 Stanzas 01-11 to reflect this change. Also now the most recent (3) Proverbs A, PR-A(4.5). Also (7) Proverbs B, PR-B(11.4) Correction.

Notes, Formatting NOTES: (25d.515 Slv, f526 Mon 1:56, 9:41; 10:23 am; 3:41; 6:29 pm EDT) Hello, wishing all well! Updating, I've added posts on blogpost 2, finishing the Ten Commandments and adding a Persistent post of 4B, Psalm 119 Intro of Stanzas 1-4. Also, let me clarify that there are places on the 3 blogposts that are meant to be filled as the half quarter (month and a half) proceeds, and the 3A-C blogposts have not been up all that long. So the move to 4A-C up through month 6 will allow more posts as on the site previously, before the new format. Soon adding two Psalm Selects to the Persistent/Introductory Posts on this blogpage. Posted,both Psalms 1 and 15. Now, added posts to pages 2 and 3. This includes 4A Godz Lawl posts in PIP, Persistent/Introductory Posts, and another Godz Lawl post in segment 4A, on the Golden Rule, also in (5) Eternal Express, on Protecting Peace from Ephesians 4-5, and (6) Golden Bellz, on the Salvtuday dayname recommendation from Saltuday. Also, added the 7) article under the CTC Foundational list, actually the original 5th article, Realities of God's Government and Beneficial Standards, and then to (9) Godlove Home, I added the article Aim to Develop True Loyal Love. Misc. updates. 25d.514Prz,f525Sun 8:53 am; 1:15,29,56; 6:29 pm EDT) Hello, wishing all well! Posted 1B-1 so far the Conclusion of the podcast Proper View of God and Life Rewarding, the episode 5 w0834 having become a theme for my campaign, entitled 'Restore Good - Move Forward'. Also, posted this year's entire podcast, the carryover as Winit5to9, w0850-0854, with the theme: 2025 Claim to Presidency. This is under segment (1B) as 1B-3. Also, yesterday's 13th of Month 5 was Thunderday, a day when you more often will hear thunder as from God, realizing He can lend forth His mighty voice to things taking place, as a God of true justice, reminding us of His power, truth, and love. Still there have been interferences, etc.--NOT all storms are from God. Today's 8-Day Calendar day is the second week's Friday, the first week of two being Starzday, for movie-going, etc, with the second being Prayerzday, which begins a four-day or five-day weekend, a day which could also be used for entering court pleas, etc. Prayers of course help all to maintain closeness to God and His Son, and provisions for life. Also, 1A posts, WGA-A, previous. The reference is 1A-2 Previous GA(1A-102-217) on Presidency, Economy, Tariffs, Govt Cuts, etc. This post is originally from the 2025 2/8 START page (blogpost 1), where it (in 2 posts) may still be found. Correction made to most of those individual posts for this page to match the original reference number format, for technical purposes; I will make that change if appropriate on the next blogpost 4A/8A, planning to carry it over. 25d.513Thd,f524Sat 5:31; 6:20-21,39-40; 7:05 pm EDT) Hello, wishing all well! Posted 1A-3 Golden Apples Post, GA(008) On the Number Eight (8). Included as a Latest GA post. Also soon to come, a Psalm 19 rendition. Posted, as latest and Psalms Post 1, numbered 2.1. Updates Psalm 19, note. 25d.512Wnd,f523Fri 9:18-23; 10:15 am; 9:50-53,55,59; 10:27,33,37; 11;11:08-09,59 pm EDT) Hello, wishing all well! I've added another post to (1A) WGA-A, after the A-306 from last night, on the Penny news. This one, A-307, is regarding an important lesson from ancient Greece. Again, these are on this blogpost 1 below, under segment 1A (Weekly) Golden Apples. Also now another (3) Proverbs A, PR-A(3.6), chapter 3, verses 31-35, concluding chapter 3. NOTE : Now letting you know I'm planning to fill-in the missing pieces on the 3 blogposts, but possibly just on the new 4A-C/8A-C posts which normally begin from the middle of month 5 through month 6. Most of the work done on 3A-C/8A-C will be carried over into the 4's. Along with adding WGA-A/B posts, planning especially the next 2 days if possible. I could however finish the essentials on the 3A-C's in time for Memorial Day, then carry over most into the 4's to post a day or two later. The reason this may be better is that we, as the United States, should not be ignoring the 8-Day Calendar, which half the world is already on, as a step forward in life, toward a greater world of peace, with God's blessing. After all, it originated here, in the U.S. with God's blessing on me, so why should we consider being the last to begin using it, unless we're helping others to get on it before us, like people getting into lifeboats before the captain of a ship that's slowly sinking, but such an illustration is NOT to apply to us, or in this situation, except for our captains having such genuine concern for those under their care! God's spirit is still with us to straighten things out, and to have a leading role in bringing blessings from God to other countries, even as "one nation under God". Perhaps we may begin thinking in terms of the 8-Day, I could reference the days in an article/post to remind of the purpose of the day, which I believe God is blessing for it's particular purpose that day, whether it's to strengthen our bodies with the right kind of salt intake, or acknowledging that the day might be more windy like today really was here on this Windyday the 12th of the 5th month Agreehelp (Agr). But I realize it would help for me to get where I should, and the true election results regarding the U.S. President to be acknowledged, which was or is not simple due to the AI media control that Donald had over DC, VA, and MD for the last 4-5 years or more, with at least TV, radio, and internet in the region, beginning likely with smaller measures aimed to lessen opposition to his reputation or ideas. Not everyone knew that I was on the ballot in 48 states last November, with much backing across the nation. 25d.511Tro,f522Thu 6:04,07-08,21; 7:11 am; 11:18,53 pm EDT) Hello, wishing all well! Added an Introductory/Persistent Post, Aim to Develop True Loyal Love. More work, including WGA-A/B posts today...Initially prayers that food can continue to get into Palestine, where some 11,000 lives of children and adults are currently being threatened daily, and that love and diplomacy, or mindful and peaceable discussion, be the way, rather than more war or violence. Also, other matters of course need attention. Let love and truth prevail again, as it may rest in our hearts and minds. Added to WGA-A the post (A-306), Last Run of the Penny (As We Know It)? Update. 25d.510Mnd,p521Wed 9:08-09 am EDT) Hello, wishing all well! Added (3) Proverbs A, chapter 3, verses 27-30. 25d.509Rih,p520Tue 6:41,50 pm EDT) Hello, wishing all well! Added some GA posts.

Posted work from last evening (8B) WGA-B, B-304 post theme: Drive for Clean Energy Can Continue! on blogpost #3. Hoping to be writing again from the real START page, blogpost #1, soon! I'd like to also say, Let's thank God for blessing what we all can do regarding His will, for genuine peace--let's stand for what's true, with God's guidance and love! Some have been seeking their own glory rather than God's, and hurting others in the process, against God's will; May they humble themselves and be honest. We need divine wisdom and God's blessing on all we do! If time, planning to post (4B) Psalm 119 Part 2 of Review within the hour, Stanzas 7-8. Posted! Format update. (25d.504 Wdn, f515 Thu 9:41,50; 10:15-16,23-24,46 am EDT) Hello, wishing all well! I've posted Part 1 of the (4) Psalm 119 Stanzas 5-8 Review (Stanzas 5-6), with two good stanza/themes.

(25d.502 Moo, f513 Tue 9:38,40-41 am; 9:55,58; 10:03-05,10-11; 11:01 pm EDT) Hello, wishing all well, again from the Blogpost #2, not the normal messaging/notes post of the START page, blogpost 1. So much to be considering, knowing where I should be and still aiming to be, but also wanting to, within limits, address things this way, to share, offer insight, etc. Plan to make some progress on these posts today, while giving attention to the important things of our nation, etc. Several things came up, but I did review Commandment #4 of the Ten, which I've posted by itself, without numbers 5-7 yet. Looking for getting up the START page and/or more Golden Apples pieces and WGA posts on what's taking place, whether WGA-B or WGA-A (blogpost 1). Formatting update. Update, further. (25d.501 Son, f512 Mon 11:53 am EDT) Hello, wishing all well! Updated the Commandments 1-3 of the Ten, specifically #1. (25d.434Lun,f511Sun 10:27,38 am; 4:53; 5:41 pm EDT) Hello, wishing all well! Again this is blogpost 2, not the normal start page, but more notesy for now until it's up! I've updated the Ps119, S08 post(s). Also, this ending of the 4th month of the 8-Day Calendar is the Hymneth long weekend, the days to include the 34th actually get switched up, so that the 30th is (Prz) Prayerzday, 31st (Hym) Hymneth, 32nd (Slt) Saltuday, 33rd (Fan) Fanday, and 34th (Lun) Lunaday. Again, the normal progression in a 33-day month is 30th Prz, 31st Slt, 32nd Fan, 33rd Lun. Now the first 3 of the Ten Commandments has been posted, looking to review before posting remainder. Update. (25d.433Fan,f510Sat 8:01; 9:01,44-45 pm EDT) Hello, wishing all well again, on this page! Format basically complete for this Blogpost 2, with the Psalm 119 Stanza 8 A and B parts posted as latest segment 4B post and in the 4B list! The Memorial that many anointed ones haven't yet commemorated this year could take place this Monday evening/night (7-Day Cal.) one month following the normal one, after the example of Hezekiah's delayed Passover. Unleavened bread and red wine are symbolic of pure, genuine instruction and the ransom provision, with faith and associated joy of heart that comes with the aim of wisely keeping divine standards. Jehoshua/Jesus said 'until I drink it new with you..." Meetings that discuss the significance of this occasion and provide for both of these provisions figuratively are one way that the Passover statute in God's law that for Christians became the Memorial commemoration ('Christ our Passover lamb has been sacrificed') can continue to be appreciated and recognized.

Update. Also added to (9) Godlove Home, the article "Aim to Develop True Loyal Love" Update. Formatting. (25d.505 Hvn, f516 Fri 6:59; 7:27 am EDT) Hello! Added (8B) Weekly Golden Apples, B series, WGA-B 3#1 post, B-304 Theme: Drive for Clean Energy Can Continue! (25d.504Wdn,f515 Thu 10:12,53 am, EDT) Hello! Added new portion of (7) Proverbs B, chapter 11 verses 1-5! Format updates. (25d.433Lun,f510Sat 12:13,23,27,33-34,55; 1:08 pm EDT) Hello, wishing all well! Recall addressing you more on this page has been temporary, until completing the new format for all 3 Blogposts, wanting them to display in order, needing to start with the third and work back for this to happen (normally I write most of these notes on Blogpost 1, the START page/post). I've finished with the formatting for this Blogpost 3, and am moving on to the other two! I plan sometime today to have Blogpost 2 started with a Psalm 119 posting from stanza 8, and with it being Saturday on the 7-Day calendar, would recommend the song Back In Time, from the movie Back to the Future, as regards, while being royal, in this case confusion over my election win(s) for President, but getting me where the President should be, especially the true one God is blessing to be so, that I may truly accomplish what the American people voted for me to serve as President and do, looking forward to what God prepared me over much time to be able to do! I've become aware of an adjustment, and am making it, to make two lists on the segment 8, a CTC list and a WGA-B list, rather than mixing them. Complete. (25d.432Fan,f509Fri 8:45,53; 11:46 am; 10:39-40 pm EDT) Hello, wishing all well! The post of WGA-B, (B-303) now soon to come! Topic is chosen, etc. I apologize again for the delays or the being delayed in various ways, although I aim once again to be more consistent as I had in the past with making posts on thinking and activity. Part of the reason for this has been my continued aims to be where the true U.S. President, blessed by God, should be, as I know many share this important standard that our nation has upheld in most elections throughout it's history! Added the post (B-303), Regarding Department Cuts, Some Excessive...Also posted to Seg.8 LIST (25d.430 Prz,f507 Wed 7:13,15,19 am EDT) Hello, wishing all well! Improved some things, still upcoming WGA-B post(s), which is a secondary form of the WGA's previously on the start page, moving some to this post on themes not as necessary for the start page content. (25d.428Wnd,f505Mon 9:01,53; 10:13 am EDT) Hello, wishing all well! Adding the CTC article, fully: Issue after Issue Being Addressed by God's Kingdom: Prejudice and Racism. This is posted as the LATEST CTC POST, as well as the FIRST in the list of CURRENT CTC/WGA-B Posts, as (8.1). More preparation for upcoming WGA-B post(s), under GA(302) WGA-B #1; At least one, GA(303) to be next before ensuing blogpost work... Update to P&R article. Inclusion of Podcast reference. (25d.426Mnd,f503Sat 11:58 am EDT) Hello, wishing all well! Added the (8-2) Persistent Post of the 8-Day Calendar article, called More Orderly Time, Month and Daynames, revised some! I've again had some interferences, for which I apologize. (25d.424Fwn,501Thu 5:08-09 pm EDT) Hello, and welcome! I've had delays, but posted is now the podcast example policy insertion into the Foundation articles from the Podcast series, WM2, on Pushing Reset: Letting Work Become More Enjoyable, Rewarding! (25d.423Psd,430Wed 8:33 pm EDT) Hello, wishing all well! More layout of post, aiming for WGA-B posts soon... (d25.422Stz,429Tue 9:37-38,50 am EDT) Hello, wishing all well! Added to the CTC Foundational articles with the inserted one mentioned previously, helping see the place of government in relation to God and His Kingdom. Also, I've posted one of the Persistent Posts, a CTC on Proper View of Law(l). (25/421Hvn,428Mon 3:27,53; 7:05 pm EDT) Hello, wishing all well! I know this is blogpost 3, but I'm in the process of preparing to post all 3, and I wanted this third one posted first, so that it appears third in the list after the other two are up. I went ahead and included a few posts on this page, including another (7) Proverbs B (ch 11-20), from chapter 10, verses 28-32, the conclusion of that chapter. Also, the CTC Foundational articles I've been intending to post for a while now, but which were on a previous post from last year, I'm also posting. The CTC Corner (Come to Consensus Corner) Startup post is included, as well as now four of the first 5 articles/policies. There is another newer article I've planned to include among this grouping, believing it's more helpful now to underscore some important things relating God's interest and much-needed blessing on good government, to maintain civilized society, often taken for granted. Up to 4 CTC articles!

(25/416Fan,423Wed, 12:10 pm EDT) Hello, wishing all well! Had a technical issue I believe is now resolved, which slowed me some on the blog while at the same time I was focused on accomplishing other things and still am--I do apologize for the blog delay. I'm working on the new full set of blogposts 1-3, segments 1-9 as previous. All three blogposts are to have a similar format to this one, despite the varying subject matter. I did update the first two articles under Christianity, and am about to add something else to the second article, The Basics. (25/410Min,417Thu, 10:10 am; 5:30 pm EDT) Hello, wishing you well again! Added to the 10 Points with explanation of the change from LGBTQ+ to simply LGTQ, still to be addressing this important issue. It may actually be that simply 3 letters will suffice for the abbreviation, as in GTQ, as Gay had come to represent both male and female gender conditions. This could also possibly be TGQ. (25/408Fwn,p415Tue, 8:20 am EDT) Hello, wishing all well! Added new Proverbs A segment of chapter 3, PR-A(3.4), verses 19-26. I apologize that getting the entire blog up as usual, but with the updated format, is taking time. Still looking to God, asking for prayers, for things to be right, to take place as they should, for everyone's benefit! (25/405Hvn,p412Sat, 7:18-19 pm EDT) Hello! Memorial night, like true Passover, but of Christ's death, the literal and the figurative. You might reflect on the meaning, and read a chapter, perhaps Luke 22, or more, considering lessons. Love of God and His wonderful power and purpose toward mankind, a beautiful and peace-loving world, is made possible! Have faith in the Son, the ransom for forgiveness of sins, and aim for the target of righteousness in your decisions, to honor God and reflect divine wisdom in how you do things, contributing to His will! {Recall that truly anointed ones are to be in attendance to partake, and all were to commemorate on Passover night, honoring God and Christ. Paul also said "As often as" you do this, which can indicate allowance for another month's observance, at least occasionally. It could well be that as anointed ones all reached their new heavenly position, in the secondary application, that the commemoration could consistently involve and recognize a figurative or emblematic eating of spiritual bread, or life-sustaining instruction, as well as drinking of spiritual wine, recognizing Christ's sacrifice and also the rejoicing that wine scripturally signifies, true happiness being made possible with proper understanding and application of God's word and Christianity.} (25/404Wdn,p411Fri, 11:37-38,41 am; 3:27,35 pm EDT) Hello, wishing all well again. To put up a repost of an article on Coal Initiatives from a while back--it should be of interest to those who are not familiar with it. Now posted, WGA (1-217), Repost, update: On Former Coal Initiatives. (25/331Slt,p407Mon, 10:12-13,16,18,50; 11:24 am EDT) Hello, wishing all well! Posted WGA (1-216) Urging Strong Caution--Response to harsh Tariffs plan. We've taken some steps to help make up for some of the initial effects and possible overreactions from last week, seeking God's blessing under the circumstances. Updated. (25/323Psd,f330Sun, 8:01,05 am; 10:20, 23,53 pm EDT) Hello, wishing all well! Update to (1-215) and addition of PS(2.3), Psalm 15, Good Character.
