Then, Series Win-it Minute refers to my podcast series I began on Spotify, originally under a second podcast show called Find Life And See Earview Podcast, recently shortened to Find Life And See Podcast. The original series was/is my authored work set to podcast, to aid in the gaining of divine wisdom for better success in life, and spanned 9 months between mid-Feb 2022 to mid-Nov, receiving some radio coverage. Following this was WM season 2, and then Winit500, an expanded series for more in-depth coverage of broader issues, permitting 500 or more seconds total in usually 5 weekly episodes. This quickly became a Nationally Syndicated Broadcast. I would like to continue this as Winit5to9, with varying time allotment, planning even 500, 600, 700, 800, or 900 second total weekly topic coverage, depending on subject matter, etc. Planning the first episode multiplied by 5 to give the total for the week, i.e. 140 seconds resulting in a 700 second total, although each episode may vary some at about 10 second intervals. This likely on average every other week as a way to continue connecting with the public on important issues.

Link to First WM[0830-4] & WM[0840-4], two important series podcasts from last season, Winit500.

This segment is meant to offer good and insightful translations of valuable, moving, and/or timely psalms and later also included the segment on timely or inspiring song selections.

This is a commentary on the beginning of this Bible book helping all to acquire the right kind of thinking so as to gain good judgement from God, and see things as they really should be seen or understood.

Link to First PR-A[3.6]

1. Understanding GOD as Higher Power, a properly translated Bible revealing the good of His spirit and influence, and His good promises for a bright future. Knowing God (and His Son) as more correctly, Jehoval(z), God's word revealing divine wisdom, re-known for promoting real peace, and ruling to accomplish good earth-wide.

2. Great care should be exercised that elections for office within the United States, and especially for the Higher Offices Nationally, take place according to the United States Constitution and as the public rightly expects as a democratic process of choosing truly wise (and not just knowledgable) public servants not hindered or manipulated, but carried out freely and by law(l).

3. Also, public education, with reasonable laws also permitting private education, is to aid the proper and natural growth of each youth (or to refresh and restore older ones), and to provide extra help in cases where essential learning skills are not being acquired, as in basic math and logic, reading and writing, fair retention/memory function and grasp of higher authority and laws, with capacity for eventual good community involvement and social responsibility.

4. As regards government itself, encouraging high regard for truly sacred and inspired documents (including the U.S. Constitution) blessed by God for the establishment and maintaining of the democratic republic understood by the Founders to be the way, despite necessary watchfulness and challenges, to properly care for the needs of citizens and others; they highly regarded universal law and divinely blessed law. Localities and States themselves are helped to unite by proper, but not excessive, laws, oversight, and assistance from a properly administered and balanced Federal government, limited in size and scope, and thereby also in tax burden upon citizens. In this, God's authority should also be respected and appreciated. Thus matters of national health, security, and well-being must be regularly monitored, and attention given to foreign relations and crises.

5. Public Safety must be a high aim, safe public transportation, Good police investigation, protection and gun control as regards a disciplined military and strict regulation on carry license, with education on resolving conflicts without violence. Also, good affordable medical care is also vital as needed.

6. Equality. LGTQ Rights, Respect as Individuals and God-given help from being caught in-between genders, etc. and suffering associated real emotional distress and related problems. {Shortening to LGTQ helps ensure Bisexual is not viewed as a normal behavioral category but rather an abnormality, with still a single real sex or gender of the person. Other unusual conditions can appropriately fall into the Queer category.}

6. Equality. LGTQ Rights, Respect as Individuals and God-given help from being caught in-between genders, etc. and suffering associated real emotional distress and related problems. {Shortening to LGTQ helps ensure Bisexual is not viewed as a normal behavioral category but rather an abnormality, with still a single real sex or gender of the person. Other unusual conditions can appropriately fall into the Queer category.}

7. Economy. Address instabilities, encourage good business models that contribute to market stabilization and good business ethic; Rather than repeatedly taxing our own planet, which has been shown to silently contribute to cycles of economic growth and then severe decline or disparity, instead promote understanding of the right kind of taxes to diminish inflation and other threats to the economy, thus averting excess property/real estate taxes, but not avoiding restaurant meal taxes (unembellished) or personal property taxes, such as on more expensive cars, which may gradually ensue, helping replace the annual excess property taxes. Of course, let's see that states have the means to oversee stable housing and new builds in the market as needed. The importance of adhering to a budget should not be diminished, but appropriate modifications should be permitted under changing or changed circumstances, perhaps quarterly. If debt is seen as necessary, the matter should be continually addressed to seek and find ways by God to overcome it properly. Also, another measure of the divinely-inspired law(l) that can apply literally does strongly promote economic stability long-term--the 50-year provision of Jubilee, land returning to owners, worthy of serious attention, for the 250th birthday of the United States.

8. On climate change, or the environment, practices which are threatening a healthy and stable environment should be replaced with viable and advantageous alternatives, blessed by God, to promote the right and happy life we can live, preferring to prevent many problems and excessive work in cleanup, etc. by effective recycling and garbage handling, improved and economically viable energy sources, better products, and so on. By reducing threats of earthquakes and other anomalies, and with newly available clean energy sources such as TruGas that are nearly as economically viable to the United States as more polluting ones, greater public health can be obtained and maintained. On the Moral climate, God-blessed family-friendly entertainment and education should be the Gold standard, seeking good public health, alertness, and happiness on all levels.

9. On Foreign Policy and Immigration. Many envision the Statue of Liberty, recalling that so many ancestors arrived in New York, immigrating to this New World, looking for a freedom that was only possible with God's power and blessing. Whereas there is much land that remains to be occupied, a balance must be struck, preserving life also for our children and children's children. Proper ways and laws for immigrating must be established and maintained, and differentiated from those seeking temporary refuge or shelter from apolitical violence abroad. At the same time, the United States has the power to help other countries establish peaceable governments in cooperation, so that many no longer see a need to immigrate here. Also, maintaining good foreign relations and being aware of foreign crises to judiciously help, are also important. Look for the peace of God through Christ.

10. Promotion of the United States and the U.N. as an International Peacekeeping Force, returning as a United States entity encouraging diplomacy, scholarship, and cooperation to prevent or resolve violence in conflict. The United States breathed life into this institution beginning with Woodrow Wilson at first called the League of Nations, until events of WWII transpired, then re-emerging as the United Nations, and for beneficial purpose, to overcome the roots and ravages of war. Recommending the U.S. re-integrate at an appropriate time, becoming the United States International Peacekeeping Organization, or USIPO. Also, other international emergencies and situations may more readily receive U.S., multi-national and peaceable, effective response, God-blessed. Foreign relations considered significant, supporting global peace. Immigration balanced, laws established and maintained, with differentiation for temporary refugees from apolitical violence. Standards for U.S. citizenship fair but U.S. assistance for good government globally, lessening need for lovers of God to immigrate.

GOLDEN APPLES

AIM TO DEVELOP AND MAINTAIN TRUE LOYAL LOVE FOR ONE ANOTHER

This Loyal Love as described in God's word has many appealing and helpful aspects and associated qualities, such as patience, self-control, and gentle mildness, all of which can do wonders to relationships!

LOYALTY. The term "patience" or "patient," also having been rendered "long-suffering," as sometimes used in the Scriptures may more accurately be translated as "loyalty." One proverb, for instance says this: "By LOYALTY a general is won over..." (Proverbs 25:15). Which is the general of an army more deeply impressed by--a man's PATIENCE or his genuine LOYALTY? While an important quality, is is not rather a man's LOYALTY that deeply impresses such a general? And we’re speaking of an army that loves God and His peace-loving ways, realizing the need to look to God for guidance, protection, and success. This is an important aspect of true love: Loyalty in a relationship, according to the definition as used in the Scriptures, enables one to put up with a disturbance in a relationship, while attempts are made in God-approved ways to right the course, or correct the problem, all with blazing hope of a restoration or attainment of an approved condition before God. Patience is involved, then, but so are other qualities, aspects of loyal love.

MILDNESS, or GENTLENESS carries great strength, in spite of the idea of some that it is somehow weak or ineffective. The same proverb mentioned above goes on to says that a "gentle tongue can break a bone"! Of course, this is referring, not to a literal bone, but a figurative one--for example a bone of contention or pride that may be strongly fixed in someone. Mild gentleness is such an appealing quality, that proud hearts have melted over the continual effects of this quality practiced upon them! This quality may be best defined Scripturally by Paul's words to the Thessalonian congregation, at 1Thessalonians 2:7: "On the contrary, we became gentle in your midst, as when a nursing mother tenderly cares for her own children." This quality may best be practiced when someone speaks an angry word to another. How do you handle the situation? If you have self-control, you can choose not to react "in kind" or in the same way, but rather, with a "mild answer," or a gentle response, that can defuse an intense situation. Proverbs 15:1 says this: "A mild answer turns away rage, But a harsh word stirs up anger." We can choose, with self-control, to offer a mild answer, with a calming effect, or a harsh word, that will only escalate the problem, stirring up more angry feelings in the other person. WHICH CHOICE MAKES THE BEST SENSE TO PRESERVE THE PEACE OF OUR FAMILY?

SELF-CONTROL is vital for every person in the family. Our reasons for saying and doing things are to be based ultimately on the knowledge of God and His right ways, that we may gain the self-control or discipline to think clearly and make wise decisions--to choose our speech and actions that will have a good effect on others and ourselves, pleasing God. Children must develop a measure of self-control early, so as to listen to their parents or guardians, especially their warnings of danger or against wrong conduct that could bring harm to themselves or others, spiritually or physically. If a matter is causing anyone in the family AGGRAVATION, that is the time to stop, take a breath, and take action before irritability turns to becoming upset, angry, and causing hurt feelings or worse. TAKE ACTION AS SOON AS YOU RECOGNIZE THE AGITATION! It is then time to CHANNEL all the energy into FINDING A WORKABLE OR AGREEABLE SOLUTION TO THE PROBLEM, or SEEING HOW TO COPE WITH IT, UNTIL THE SITUATION MAY IMPROVE IN THE FUTURE.

AVOID CONSTANT CRITICISM. One more caution, try not to be nagging others in a critical way. It is one thing to occasionally encourage someone in a gentle, loving manner to correct an unpleasant habit, for instance. But it is quite another to constantly use bitter language to find fault with the person, which may provoke quarrels. Each of us should want to avoid becoming as described in God's word as a "ridiculer" ["one who ridicules others"], "scoffer" ["one expressing scorn, or hatred for others"], or a "reviler" ["one who reviles or speaks abusively of others"]. The Bible also speaks of one who may seem to be constantly “nagging”. It may be important for some to recognize that there is usually a way to speak the truth about something without being overly blunt or harsh. Please be careful to be considerate of the feelings of others in not only what we say, but how we say it! All, of course, can aim to be respectful and considerate of one another in what they both say and do. Let's AIM FOR RESPECT FOR ONE ANOTHER, CONSIDERATION FOR ANOTHER'S FEELINGS, AND THE PRACTICE OF TRUE LOYAL LOVE! If in spite of such encouragement, things do not improve, there may be definite physical or health issues contributing, such as ongoing pollutants in air, water or food, or other such influences that with God's help may be identified and adequately addressed!

A fine consideration for the family may be the article "LOVE EXAMINED," found elsewhere on this website, which offers a point by point consideration of Paul's description of love found in 1Corinthians 13:4-8. You may already be quite familiar with it; it reads this way:

“Love is loyal and kind. It is not jealous (from envy), it does not brag, it does not get puffed up (from pride), 5 does not behave indecently, does not look for it’s own interests, does not become provoked. It does not keep account of the injury. 6 It does not rejoice over unrighteousness, but rejoices with the truth. 7 It bears all things, hopes all things, believes all things, endures all things. 8 Love never fails...”

Again, that’s from 1Corinthians 13:4-8, NWT.

HEALTH AND HYDRATION

Maintaining Body Hydration Levels for Improved Resistance

Short Sum:

Knowing the importance of hydration can help in the battle against disease. There is a real need for clean water in the right form for drinking, natural minerals included. Some factors, such as bicarbonate and good ozone can help greatly with water treatment. Still, staying hydrated each day requires balance, as in supplemental water, or some beverage concentrations.

In the News...Two recent legitimate medical headlines

'Incredibly contagious stomach virus wreaking havoc in part of the U.S.'

'U.S. Battles Escalating Fungal Infection Outbreak'

Some time ago, a 16 year old girl died shortly after being diagnosed as having the flu. We know that the flu can sometimes bring about a loss of body electrolytes, or minerals, as a result of it's effects on the body. This event is relatively unexpected in our society, although in the past, many have lost lives due in large measure to this. However, still today we are finding conditions of lower electrolytes than ideal. While there are treatments to help preserve these, such as with certain foods easy on the stomach, i.e. bananas and whole wheat saltines or other crackers, this may also remind us that many have reduced amounts of electrolytes due to less being received in water and food. Good drinking water and other fluids can be a way to restore these:

HEALTH AND HYDRATION, DRINKING WATER, PURIFIED HOW?

A REAL NEED Is the water our bodies need just a chemical, H2O? Or is there more to it? Most people realize from an early age how much we need and benefit from good water. Whether its taking a bath or shower, swimming, or drinking a cold, refreshing cup of water on a hot day, we realize that our bodies need water, or hydration, to function at it's best. Yet, many have also come to realize in our modern society that there have been occasional pollutants that have been recognized in some water sources, that have been a cause for concern, and we count on providers such as bottled water producers to take the necessary precautions to protect consumers. For this reason, various filtration and treatment processes have been employed. It is important to realize that in many cases it is the FORM that a substance or element presents that will determine whether it has a positive or negative effect on the body.

MORE THAN H2O For instance, did you know that ocean water, and many reknown mineral springs or spring waters, have a plethora of trace minerals found therein, that accompany the more well-known minerals such as sodium, potassium, calcium and magnesium? These may also be found in a good sea salt, or salt mined from ancient seabeds, such as healthful Pink Himalayan salt, and Redmond Real Salt. Ocean salt water, of course, is not normally meant for drinking as-is, but did you know that the process known as Reverse-Osmosis, is actually meant for converting OCEAN water to a water suitable for drinking? The resulting unsalty water in this case still does contain minerals and trace minerals, in the same IONIC form as found in sea water, which is a form that your body can turn either organic or inorganic, depending on your needs at the time. 

NEED FOR MINERALS However, while our bodies usually need organic minerals from natural foods the most, we still need electrolytes such as found in a good mineral spring water. Does your body really need such minerals, or electrolytes, to function properly? YES! Our bodies rely on such minerals to relay electrical impulses to function properly, so drinking overly purified water, which has often removed nearly all minerals and trace minerals, can be gradually reducing our bodies' abilities to function in such a way, and could eventually result in unexpected or unanticipated events, such as a collapse or fall, even into unconsciousness. However, it is possible that removing the minerals has protected some with or susceptible to cancer, as some minerals may nevertheless speed up tumor growth. Stick with a low mineral source if this is your case, until healing takes place. Our bodies also need bicarbonate, especially sodium bicarbonate (i.e., baking soda), which is part of the salty taste of ocean water. This should be found in many of our foods and natural beverages, such as fruit juices, but is often lost to typical processing methods. 

HEALTHY FACTORS When present, bicarbonate benefits the body in numerous ways, has shown to help protect from cancer and other diseases, and can be part of healthy water processing in large- or small-scale municipal systems, actually contributing to water cleansing or purification. When minerals are found in their proper form, and at beneficial levels in our bodies, we have a better chance of thriving and maintaining more stamina in our day-to-day life, as God intended! It has been found that Reverse-Osmosis, while removing impurities, removes nearly all minerals and trace minerals when used to treat well- or spring water. Some companies, however, such as PUR and to a greater extent AQUASANA (now with a North American headquarters in the U.S.), have developed award-winning water filtration processes that also retain good important minerals and trace minerals in the water, resulting in healthful drinking water, with such systems capable of serving the needs of even large numbers of people. Noteworthy also is the correct use of proper ozonation (O3) in water treatment. When received properly, such a treatment may actually be effective against some so-called "forever" pollutants, making news recently. Also, why not look ahead to more practical gallon and half-gallon jugs of water that could fit better in a refrigerator, be used to fill portable cold cups/mugs, and to return for re-use or refill in store, reducing need for small bottle recycling? Still, addition of 1/32-1/16 tsp of baking soda (or 1/4 cup Artesian water) with drops of reputable ionic minerals may temporarily compensate for an overly purified, so-called "drinking" or steam-distilled bottled water.

STAY HYDRATED This is more challenging than many realize, but nutrients received from nutrient-dense foods such as Spirulina should at least assist with doing so. For better absorption a pair of such foods, Spirulina and Kelp, can be taken together in a Vinagrette or French Dressing. If Kelp is missing above, excess salt and sodium such as received through a salt-water softener can be diminished with another source of organic sodium, such as a typical soy sauce. Of course, Kelp also provides an organic source of Iodine, still greatly missing from most diets, but iodized salt also promotes proper assimilation and adds good iodine.

BALANCING As regards proper hydration, an important thing to realize is that most processed beverages add very little to your hydration level, and might be viewed more as concentrates rather than ready for boosting hydration levels, which still might be considered as cost-saving. You should pray about the matter, and add a good spring water to your cup when using store-bought juices and tea, for instance. The water should be about the same amount of the normal drink, but if combining, you then may wish adding some additional sugar, arcane (or new Splenda) or agave to make up the flavor. You will likely then add about 10-15% to your hydration level with that drink. You should also begin the day with a 1/2 to 1 cup of spring water, to which you may add a little pure aloe vera juice on alternating days. There are some parts of the body that just are not hydrated without some regular intake of a good spring water by itself, or with a pure aloe vera juice added, which contributes toward a well-working body and gut. One other helpful routine is a second morning drink following the water, a few minutes after. This can be a juice, tea, or like Gatorade, that you fortify with a few nutrients. A large 28 oz. Gatorade for instance, after pouring out a little to make room, could be the basis for adding 1/2 tsp. of baking soda, 1/4 tsp. of Turmeric spice, 1 TB Aloe vera juice, and 5-10 drops of Ionic minerals--the small amount you drink still being healthful.

MORE ON HYDRATION A few other things to know can help. There is wisdom in knowing that a little pure wine 'for the stomach' can assist where contact with unsafe or polluted water may have occurred. Also, some things thought to make tea, such as many leaves including most fruit leaves and flower petals, are more correctly considered herbal waters, more hydrating. And, both seltzers and sparkling or tonic waters can extend sodas and alcoholic drinks, making them more refreshing and less concentrated.

BICARBONATE BUFFER. As crucial as bicarbonate, even sodium bicarbonate or baking soda, is to the human body, there is a recommendation that can benefit practically anyone concerned about lacking this in their body, which lack can hinder the heart and other body organs. It uses an ordinary box (1 LB) of baking soda, preferably Arm & Hammer, in a normal warm bath of water. For the first time, it adds 1/2 box to the water, stirring some to absorb, before bathing. Even just the legs can absorb necessary bicarbonate. After the first time, later baths only use or need 1/4 box. This is not the same as salt, and can promote calm and lessen body acidity.

NEW 8 DAY CALENDAR, INTRODUCTION

INTRO TO: MORE ORDERLY TIME, MONTH & WEEKDAY NAMES--A SEGMENT (8) CTC CORNER ARTICLE: 

The highlighted article named above, produced and revised through my blog segment COME TO CONSENSUS CORNER, has addressed a highly significant issue regarding God's own purpose in revising the moon's cycle, to restore it's intended use as a monthly timepiece, only now for a consistent 8-day week, (one additional weekend day, between the new Saturday and Sunday), with one or two additional days at month's end, making possible consistent 4-week months essentially with 33 or 34 days. These months would each begin on the first day of the week, recommended to alternate between the names Sonaday and Righday, and end with a day added to the weekend for increased refreshment by God, related to the new moon cycle, keeping on schedule with the moon's new phase timing. Weekends will thus always correspond nearly to either New Moon, First Half Moon, Full Moon, or Second Half Moon. The result is an extension of quarters to be approximately 100 days each through the year (with similar total workdays per 400 day year), and giving us 12x4 weeks of usually 8 days, totaling 48 weeks, which can be fairly correlated from schedules based on the previous calendar, with now 12 weeks per quarter rather than 13. Having previously recommended a weeklong break when going from one season to the next, called Humaneth, this is still maintained in the new 8-day calendar with 6-8 day stretches ending the last week of certain months, and this can likewise improve correlating from the 7-day to the 8-day calendar. With actual weather cycles, etc. reflecting now the 400-day year, and since 365 plus 35 equals 400, then adding (5) 7-day stretches to the former calendar can help maintain the correlation, best at end of February, April, June, September, and November. In all these cases but June, the 8-day Calendar now has the corresponding months ending with two extra weekend days during a longer break, allowing for a string of 6 or more days off. One purpose being increased refreshment by God, the typical workweek is still to be 5 days, but now realizing God's purpose of alternating a 2-day and 4- or 5-day weekend. The article offers some detail on the purpose and benefit of this new arrangement by God, with Monthnames and Daynames recognizing purpose to the days(!), helping all to view it properly. One principle of God's word states this: "For God is a God, not of disorder, but of peace."

See the 2025 Blogpost 3, Persistent Posts Segment (8A) Come to Consensus Corner (CTC) article, More Orderly Time, New Month and Daynames.

WEEKEND ACTIVITY ISSUE: To adopt the new calendar, acknowledging God's gift, we must reasonably deal with the issue of planned activites, especially weekends, including Sports contests, social events, and the like. THIS has found agreement: WHY Not continue with such activities as planned for the next three March weekends, the March dates of 16-17 and 23-24. Also the final weekend, 30-31. But let's begin the process of adjusting both weekday (beginning with some this month) and esp. weekend events, especially after Sunday April 7. The dates of April 4-7 line up with the four weekend days of the last week of new calendar 3rd month, Peasamake (Pes) 31-33, and 1st of Month 4, now Shuay. Thus Sun Apr 7 activities could stay on Sonday the 1st of Shuay, but with the consideration afterward of shifting future Sunday church activites to the New Calendar (NC) alternating Psalmday and Calmday (the 7th, 15th, 23rd, and 31st of each month). For new month 4 Shuay: Apr 13, 20, 27, May 4. Now, planning ahead, it does seem best going forward to have awareness of the new calendar while both sticking with the 7-day calendar through April 7 (Shuay 1), and at the same time beginning collectively to switch dates of sporting events, etc, especially those scheduled on former calendar weekends, to line up with New Calendar Days AFTER April 7, realizing that there is one extra weekend day to work with as far as scheduling events. Since April 7 is Shuay 1, this means that as far as the numbered date goes, there is a 6 day difference between April and Shuay. However, this has nothing to do with the day of the week, the difference of which will change week by week. Thus a reference chart comparing calendar dates between the former and new calendars can be very handy for event moves, etc. Also keeping in mind the extra day 8, at least some events that may not easily move to the new Sat/Sun could be scheduled for that day, between the two. Again the new Saturday Day 7 is called, alternating, Psalmday and Salvtuday, Day 8 alternating Fawnday and Fanday, and Sunday, Day 1 of each week, alternating Sonaday and Righday, as clarified below.

ONE HOUSE-FIRE SOLUTION! An issue has come to light regarding those power-strips, making possible the connecting of several components to a single household electrical outlet. The issue is a serious one, involving electrical fire risk.

A typical home electrical outlet, which is sometimes called a receptacle, is in all actuality a duplex, which most realize that two receptacles are usually provided at each wall outlet. Indications are increasing that a power strip, not so much by it's individual design, but rather by it's very function, actually draws on nearly all the power of the entire outlet from the single receptacle plug. The point is this: Strange electrical things can take place when both a power strip and a lamp or other device of some sort are plugged into the same outlet together, potentially leading to a possible electrical fire catastrophe. 

Therefore, when a power strip is in use, there should be no other device plugged in to the other receptacle in that same outlet--instead, another normal device should be among those plugged into the power strip itself--the outlet in this case should be solely and entirely for supporting the power strip only. However, it is usually understood that a power strip itself should not be overloaded. A device with a heavy power usage, such as a plasma TV, is best plugged in a separate outlet by itself, just like a power strip should be. A dummy plug or child-safe plug should be placed in the other receptacle with a clear notice or message NOT TO BE REMOVED as long as the power strip is associated to that outlet.

A careful check should be performed in every home to determine whether an unsafe condition now exists, so as to correct any such condition. All of us doing so, and alerting loved ones, friends, and neighbors to this potentially hazardous condition, may dramatically reduce the tearful number of house-fires nationwide and abroad. 

ALSO, If corrections are not made, and such a fire begins, it usually is sourced INSIDE THE WALL. Therefore, using some of the fire extinguisher/etc. may buy time but MAY NOT COMPLETELY HALT THE FIRE, UNLESS you can SWITCH OFF THE POWER STRIP AND/OR OTHER DEVICE, OR use a thick glove or something to unplug the devices, which may be very hot, and then if necessary a sledgehammer or something similar is used to get behind the wall to reach the source of the flame! Aside from applying what you now know, real solutions have been found for this situation, for both temporary and permanent corrections, in cooperation with well-respected partners, as I'll soon update in a related CTC Corner article.

Names of God and Christ, Clarified

For some time there has been an issue regarding the true names of both God and His firstborn Son, as Christ and a model, commonly known as JEHOVAH and JESUS. In some circles, JEHOVOE had become familiar, along with other forms. By meaning it was becoming clearer that the there was a discrepancy in relating the true meaning of God's name with the most prominent name, especially it’s ending. The ending ‘VAH’ really didn’t seem to have much meaning lingually, but may have indicated the original name’s plural form. Yet is was understood that God’s name was to have the complete meaning ‘He who causes to become, and possibly also to grow and increase’. Initially I had discovered the connection between 'oe' and the association with the understood meaning of God's sacred name, and found that the name Joe (or Joez) which is shown to be the actual shortened form of God's name in verse (rather than Jah), accordingly has the meaning 'God Increases'.

JEHOVAHZ There would be more to the story, however, just as God through His Son often leads the way. As it turns out, the 'ho' in the middle of God's name can account for the shortened 'Joe' or actually 'Joez', referring to growth and increase. Thus, instead of the ending 'voe', the next thing discovered related to God’s use of the first and last letters of the alphabet to indicate His being and accomplishing from start to finish, as mentioned in Revelation: ‘the first and the last’, 'the beginning and the end', and instead of Greek ‘the alpha and the omega’ it can be in English 'the A and the Z'. Also the significance of the letter ‘H’, most evident in the form of the capital letter, as a TRANSITION, from ONE thing to ANOTHER. Notice the two vertical lines, with a horizontal connecting one. Thus by adding the ‘Z’ to God’s name, which Name is actually understood in original Bible languages to be in the plural form, we can begin to see the meaning of God’s name as JEHOVAHZ! We have the ‘J’ and ‘O’ which is the basis for the shortened form of JOE(Z), meaning ‘GOD Becomes/Grows/Increases’, and the Ending as ‘the A and the Z’, and power to transition or accomplish from the start to finish, whatever is His Will, JEHOVAHZ, and JOEZ JEHOVAHZ! This would include the fulfillment of solemn promises or vows/valz, and you may have heard the name ‘Jehovalz’ which references this, so where did this come from, and how does this aspect of who God is relate to His overall being? 

HEBREW 'ONE' Another significant matter that not all realize is that the Scriptures indicate other Gods near Jehovah or Jehovahz with rare places in verse of changes to the Tetragrammaton of God's name, indicating others, alerting to their Godship and presence together, Jolove promoting the spirit and God’s overriding motive, and Joldove as Creator, and in 3 of the 4 places God's name appears in the KJV, except Psalm 83:18 which is JEHOVAH(Z), but could also have been JEHOVAllZ or JEHOVALLZ to indicate primacy, in the other places ‘Jehovalz’ is actually the name as Promise-Maker and Promise-Keeper. So the few times the Tetragrammaton of God’s name differed from the usual became the basis for only translating the name in a few places as in the King James Version. Hence a reason for the misunderstanding between JEHOVAHZ and Jehovalz. Yet, as has been long pointed out, God’s name actually appears over 7,000 times throughout the Bible, yet God’s name, while often being translated as ‘LORD’ (all caps) to differentiate from ‘lord’ or ‘Lord’ (usually, God’s Son), can and does have a connection to the role His firstborn Son above has as representing Him. So JEHOVAHZ together comprise the cardinal attributes as God, and a threesome, but NOT as the 'Trinity' in recent decades came to be known to include Jesus and the Holy ghost or spirit. The term however has been actually used in history in the correct way, with the correct understanding, and is recommended not to be refused entirely, with all three together as JEHOVAHZ. Helping to explain is the fact that in Hebrew the term for 'one' does actually mean 'three in one', or 'three as one' (and could actually be translated this way, correctly a life-standard) such as when a man and woman marry individually, they along with God become three in one, as Solomon wrote that 'a three-stranded cord (or rope)' is not easily torn apart. Thus these Gods are all three actually represented by this one JEHOVAHZ, as we serve/worship Him as One. And again, while GOD is a Promise-Keeper, and HIS vows/valz and His will should always take precedence, it is not just this but HIS Great Power to Accomplish His Will in Many Ways that makes Him who He Is, JEHOVAHZ.

HEBREW NAME OF CHRIST TRANSLATED, JEHOSHUA (HEBREW), JESUS, JOSHUA, JOSHALZ. Also of keen interest was and is the true name of God's Son Jesus. I discovered that chosen long ago in English was the name Joshua as closer in meaning to 'Jehovahz is Salvation', the correct meaning of his Hebrew name, often thought of as Yehoshua or Jehoshua (Hebrew language pronunciation), whereas the name 'Jesus' had been evidently given him by Caesar, and not by God, the Greek name meaning 'He makes wet', albeit, it is believed, to have been respectfully given, and should of course continue to be respected. However, close English names translated from the Hebrew, include Joshua, considered for some time as the proper English name, but more recently an even better English translation Joshalz, with Jehosha in language now understood to be lacking the plural. However, Joshalz is acceptable because the meanings of syllable letters especially in the English language can sometimes legitimately shorten 3 syllable names into 2. 

As before, the last 'L' is important in the transition between 'A and Z', with ‘L’ indicating such things as Law and Love, and as God's Son is also referred to in Revelation, ‘the first and the last’, 'the beginning and the end' (or 'the start and the finish'), and as with His Father, ‘the A and the Z’. Also, not all realize that Matthew's original gospel was written in Hebrew, and he later translated to Greek, leaving the Hebrew name of Christ as a Pentagrammaton, similar to God's name but 5 letters, although again Joshalz the most correct English form, although pronouncing a long ‘o’ could show preferable pronunciation like God's short name, being well-received, although pronounced short ‘o’ is also considered acceptable. Of interest too is the beginning of Christ’s Sermon on the Mount in Matthew chapter 5, where the reference to 9 happinesses or beatitudes can be translated like the first one: Happy are those conscious of the need of their spirit, since the Kingdom of the Heavens “shall” belong to them. Then also “All things are (or shall be) ‘Yes’ by means of him,” Christ, although this one draws attention to God Himself as the One ultimately fulfilling His promises, whose will is to be accomplished. Joshua is still noted as an acceptable English translation having been accepted so in times past. 

REPRESENTING GOD. It should be noted that the name that the disciples and fellow Hebrews used represented by the Pentagrammaton evidently did find it's usage in Greek speaking and language, with similar meaning as the English translations, while the name Jesus was evidently not used in ancient writings until later times. One other important note regarding God's Son, representing God, or AzGod, as is a correct translation of John 1:1 ‘the word was As God, or AZGod’. The Tetragrammaton of God's name is JEHOVAHZ with plural markings now more understood, and this Name, referencing AZGOD, refers to God, but the Son of God can represent Him, AZGod with v.18 also calling him a 'God', or 'Mighty One'. Both are called in Revelation ‘the A and the Z’, with GOD’s Firstborn Son above able to accomplish God’s will in God’s power, in the way that verse mentions, having come 'in God's name'. Thus Christian fulfillment can be emphasized, throughout God's word, even as that name again refers to the Almighty. The name as ‘Jehovalz’ can also indicate this. As regards the name with ‘L’, it is a long-standing principle of language that the ‘L’, actually meant to be a single line marking ‘l’ (while capital ‘i’s were meant to be three marks or lines, not one), as one letter could indicate one or two marks or Ls, with dual meaning, and could also be written as two letters, which would then carry only that meaning, 'All' or 'Fully'.

TRANSLATORS. Likely now these forms of the names of God and Christ, can be carefully considered as worthy of inclusion in exceptional translations of God's word, in places where warranted, where their original appearance is determined to be genuine. 

3 PARTY PROPOSAL

Due to recent surging and proven interest in Independent or Harmonley party concepts and the concept itself of having 3 parties represented in Congress, to make possible greater consideration and passage of proper bills to benefit the United States of America, I as Mark Campbell/Michael Camelangemy do make the following proposal:

It is understood that there are some members of the Republican and Democratic parties, who have gone public in support of the aforementioned Independent or Harmonley party general points, or the formation of the Harmonley party itself, being acknowledged for promotion of national and international stability, and adherence to Constitutional provisions, as explained on my website http(s)://www.findlifeandsee.com and on http(s)://www.findlife.com 

who are among many realizing the benefits that could accrue from either having Harmonley supporters or party members among the members of Congress, particularly noteworthy in the Senate, where the U.S. Constitution in print, but not the founding bylaws of the United States, makes mention of two senators being selected to represent each state in the Senate. The number of Senators for the states has made State decisions as representing each state challenging, as too often there may be a split among the two members. Many others agreed that there is something wrong with the number being 2, and at least a few that it was quite possible that the original number for Senators from each state was actually 3, this normally making it impossible for split decisions among state Senators, and allowing for more productive activity among these highly respected members of Congress. More evidence for this conclusion is in the aims of the Founders, that many Senate decisions be based on the decisions of States and not just the individual members. In such case, how could they possibly have set it up with just 2 Senators per state? There has been word that an Original Constitution on display has been found to indicate "3" Senators being elected for each state rather than 2! 

It is also of note that states being fully represented as either Republican or Democrat do usually nevertheless have many citizens ascribing to the other party, and therefore without much representation in that way in Congress. Also, many party members have begun changing somewhat, coming closer together in thinking so that the traditional divide is not as it once was. Therefore one possible approach being here recommended for consideration is, for the purpose of rectifying a system in Congress that has not been working as it was intended to work, due to the long-time establishment of a largely two-party arrangement, although a third party has long been permitted yet little utilized, that fresh perspectives be generated as to the meaning and intent of each party, all respectful of the Creator God, mentioned by the Founders, with a possible inclusion of a new Independent party named "Harmonley" with it's emphasis on respect among all 3 parties and additional divinely-inspired principles assisting all to prove successful in passing beneficial legislation for the Nation and-or beyond. In this light, there could be much support for a state ending up with a Senator representing each party being chosen/elected, and now recommending that one for each be elected, adding stability to this 3 party proposal, as there may likewise be three sorts of men, heeding God, a reason for such an almost equal divide in politics traditionally among 2 parties. The U.S. Constitution was established when there were yet no separate party groups, and the difficulties inherent in a two-party system within the framework of the Constitution were not anticipated. As for debate regarding a fourth party, much can be said further in defense of 3; Even the Bible's use of "one" from Hebrew actually means "three in one" or "three as one", and can be applied figuratively, 'in agreement'.

Also, the preamble to the U.S. Constitution additionally serves as a basis for this proposal, as it outlines the purpose of the Constitution itself, among other things to 'establish Justice', 'insure domestic Tranquility', and 'promote the general welfare' which we realize was intended to be accomplished more successfully with application of divinely-inspired wisdom. An amendment is being proposed, backed by many Senate members, to allow for a third member choice for further representation by each state of the Union, an official amendment to the U.S. Constitution as being permissible by the Constitution itself in very special circumstances such as this, the recommendation involving the voting selection by the public of one candidate for the Senate from among the 3 different parties, as has traditionally been possible, though not as commonly known or understood, to fill the now the proposed 3 seats, rather than the 2 seat​s, and with a 2 out of 3 vote understood to be permissibly affirmative among the 3, acknowledging though the preference of unanimity, in the Senate, and for the House, to fill the appropriate number by state. In fact, I only propose this with an official understanding that by doing so I am not in violation of my duty as rightful President of the United States, having given affirmation of this duty to 'preserve, protect, and defend the Constitution of the United States.' I thus stand by my confidence that the proposal as presented below is in agreement with a President's affirmation of duty and authority, and the U.S. Constitution itself. It is also of note that there is mention in the Constitution of the need for a 2/3 majority among the states regarding special votes, sensible with 3 state seats, but again with only 2 seats, a state may have no vote if divided.

Regarding this proposal, then, an individual from among 3 parties may be voted for and lawfully elected by the public, you needn't belong to the same party to believe a particular candidate is best suited for that upcoming election term. This is in the belief that all three parties, Republican, Democratic, and Harmonley, can have aligned important priorities and objectives that all agree with the Founders intent respecting God and regarding good government, the genuine Republic that the U.S. Constitution and other founding inspired documents advance as the most capable to meet pressing needs. It is also being recommended for future election procedure, that up to a total of 3 candidates running for U.S. President be chosen if a lawful party governing body exists, in harmony with lawful public primaries/preference, to continue as candidates leading to each election year's general election, thus up to 9 candidates, or again 3 per post or party, for the selection of a U.S. President, as well as perhaps the 3 posts being elected to represent the Senate for each state, and the appropriate number of seats per state for the House. It is also being strongly recommended that each individual indicate or vote for just one candidate, the one that they most prefer, for each of the three posts. In the House, it may be that the total number of members may be representative of the balance of votes among the three parties, there being a mix, which should continue to take place as the top voted candidates are elected, according to the number for each state. 

It should also be understood that highly recommended is the practice of elected members of Congress in their duty upon election, voting on bills or other legislative action according to their individual consciences before God and as members of their party, in most if not all instances, rather than being demanded to vote along party lines, which is in no way recommended in or by the U.S. Constitution. Strong assertions could be made by a party to indicate why they wish members to vote a certain way on an issue, but then each one answers ultimately to God for the vote that may have important implications for the nation as a whole, the state they represent, and many citizens throughout. This works when such ones relate to the Creator God (as referred to in both the Declaration of Independence and the U.S. Constitution, among other founding documents), and gain good judgement, are well-rounded, able to get along with and discuss matters and debate with other members of Congress, and arrive at conclusions founded on truth, understanding, and good virtue, in agreement with divine law(l) and the best interests of all. This proposition acknowledges the stifling of good initiatives that has concerned many in the current arrangement, and that this adjustment, this amendment to the U.S. Constitution will serve to bring greater honor to the purpose of the Constitution itself, to demonstrate the greater effectiveness worthy of such an inspiring document and institution as the United States, whose foundings were blessed by God, were and are indeed intended to obtain and maintain, in the furthering or accomplishment of the better and more perfect Union that the Founders sought to establish.

FOUR PARTY (3-4) PROPOSAL

(1) Due to recent surging and proven interest in Independent or Harmonley party concepts and the concept itself of having more than 2 parties represented in Congress, to make possible greater consideration and passage of proper bills to benefit the United States of America, I as Mark Campbell/Michael Camelangemy do make the following proposal:

(2) It is understood that there are some members of the Republican and Democratic parties, who have gone public in support of the aforementioned Independent or Harmonley party general points, or the formation of the Harmonley party itself, being acknowledged for promotion of national and international stability, and adherence to Constitutional provisions, as explained on my website http(s)://www.findlifeandsee.com and on http(s)://www.findlife.com 

who are among many realizing the benefits that could accrue from either having Harmonley supporters or party members among the members of Congress, particularly noteworthy in the Senate, where recent versions of the U.S. Constitution in print, but not the founding bylaws of the United States, make mention of the number of senators being selected to represent each state in the Senate as two. This number of Senators for the states has made State decisions as representing each state challenging, as too often there may be a split among the two members. 

(3) Many others agreed that there is something wrong with the number being 2, and at least a few that it was quite possible that the original number for Senators from each state was actually 3, this normally making it impossible for split decisions among state Senators, and allowing for more productive activity among these highly respected members of Congress. More evidence for this conclusion is in the aims of the Founders, that many Senate decisions be based on the decisions of States and not just the individual members. In such case, and with all the care that we know wisely went into matters of government such as this, how could they possibly have set it up with just 2 Senators per state? There has been word that an Original Constitution on display has been found to indicate "3" Senators being elected for each state rather than “2”! 

(4) It is also of note that states being fully represented as either Republican or Democrat do usually nevertheless have many citizens ascribing to the other party, and therefore without as much representation in that way in Congress. Also, many party members have begun changing somewhat, coming closer together in thinking so that the traditional divide is not as it once was. Therefore one possible approach being here recommended for consideration is, for the purpose of rectifying a system in Congress that has not been working as it was intended to work, due to the long-time establishment of a largely two-party arrangement, although a third party has long been permitted yet little utilized, that fresh perspectives be generated as to the meaning and intent of each party, all respectful of the Creator God, mentioned by the Founders, with a possible inclusion of a new Independent party named "Harmonley" with it's emphasis on respect among all 3 parties and additional divinely-inspired principles assisting all to prove successful in passing beneficial legislation for the Nation and-or beyond. In further reflection upon the natural God-given differences, not false but true and cooperative, we’ve come to understand among people, it could very well be that one more party would be most appropriate, to make four, just as 12 common groupings respecting God have been combined into groups of threes, making four common groups altogether. 

(5) In this light, there could be much support for a state ending up with Senators representing three of the four parties often being chosen/elected, depending on support for each within that state, adding stability to this 3 or 4 party proposal, again as there may likewise be relatively four combined sorts of men, from twelve groups altogether, heeding God, a reason for such an almost equal divide sometimes in politics traditionally with just the 2 parties. The U.S. Constitution was established when there were yet no separate party groups, and the difficulties inherent in a two-party system within the framework of the Constitution were not anticipated. Now this notion regarding a fourth party can be understood from the standpoint of four groups of three’s. This is noteworthy since the Bible's use of "one" from Hebrew actually means "three in one" or "three as one", and can be applied figuratively, 'in agreement'. Thus a piece of legislation that should reasonably be passed might not have the difficulty it would have had previously, while concern should be that majorities of all parties find agreement.

(6) Also, the preamble to the U.S. Constitution additionally serves as a basis for this proposal, as it outlines the purpose of the Constitution itself, among other things to 'establish Justice', 'insure domestic Tranquility', and 'promote the general welfare' which we realize was intended to be accomplished more successfully with application of divinely-inspired wisdom. An amendment is being proposed, backed by many Senate members, to allow for a third member choice for further representation by each state of the Union, an official amendment to the U.S. Constitution as being permissible by the Constitution itself in very special circumstances such as this, the recommendation involving the voting selection by the public of one candidate for the Senate from among the now four(4) different parties, as has traditionally been possible, though not as commonly known or understood, to fill the now proposed three(3) seats [not four(4)], rather than the two(2) seat​s, and with a 2 out of 3 vote understood to be permissibly affirmative among the 3, acknowledging though the preference of unanimity, in the Senate, and for the House, to fill the appropriate number by state. In fact, I only propose this with an official understanding that by doing so I am not in violation of my duty as rightful President of the United States, having given affirmation of this duty to 'preserve, protect, and defend the Constitution of the United States.' I thus stand by my confidence that the proposal as presented below is in agreement with a President's affirmation of duty and authority, and the U.S. Constitution itself, along with evidence that the original Constitution likely contained the number three(3) and not two(2). It is also of note that there is mention in the Constitution of the need for a 2/3 majority among the states regarding special votes, sensible with three(3) state seats, but again with only two(2) seats, a state may have no vote if divided among them.

(7) Regarding this proposal, then, an individual from among four(4) parties may be voted for and lawfully elected by the public, you needn't belong to the same party to believe a particular candidate is best suited for that upcoming election term. This is in the belief that all four parties, Republican, Democratic, Harmonley, and one other, can have aligned important priorities and objectives that all agree with the Founders intent respecting God and regarding good government, the genuine Republic that the U.S. Constitution and other founding inspired documents advance as the most capable to meet pressing needs. If it seems that Republicans have been somewhat divided and Democrats have been somewhat divided, it may be that Harmonley supporters among Republicans and Harmonley supporters among Democrats could largely produce the two additional parties, with just the need to clearly articulate or define the God-given and cooperative differences among them that do not interfere with finding agreement on good legislation for the American people and beyond. Just as the addition of a third party was seen as making possible greater accomplishment, so the fourth party, situated properly, could contribute to greater clarity on issues and improvement in passage of good legislation. 

(8) As regards a U.S. President, with this understanding, we would hope in one that seeks to bring parties together in cooperation, upholding the unity of the United States. It is thus being recommended for future election procedure, that eventually up to a total of 3 candidates running for U.S. President be determined per party, in harmony with lawful public voting primaries/preference, as more prominent candidates leading to each election year's general election, thus up to 12 candidates, or again 3 per party, which could reveal one each and then one for the selection of a U.S. President, as well as perhaps the 3 posts being elected to represent the Senate for each state, and the appropriate number of seats per state for the House. It is also being strongly recommended that each individual indicate or vote for just one candidate, the one that they most prefer, for each of the three posts. In the House, it may be that the total number of members may be representative of the balance of votes among the four parties, there being a mix, which should continue to take place as the top voted candidates are elected, according to the number for each state. 

(9) It should also be understood that highly recommended is the practice of elected members of Congress in their duty upon election, regarding bills or other legislative action, voting according to their individual consciences before God and as members of their party, in most if not all instances, rather than being demanded to vote along party lines, which is in no way recommended in or by the U.S. Constitution. Strong assertions could be made by a party to indicate why they wish members to vote a certain way on an issue, but then each one answers ultimately to God and to the American people for the vote that may have important implications for the nation as a whole and the world, the state they represent, and many citizens throughout. This works when such ones relate to the Creator God (as referred to in both the Declaration of Independence and the U.S. Constitution, among other founding documents), and gain good judgement, are well-rounded, able to get along with and discuss matters and debate with other members of Congress, and arrive at conclusions founded on truth, understanding, and good virtue, in agreement with divine law(l) and the best interests of all. This proposition acknowledges the stifling of good initiatives that has concerned many in the current arrangement, and that this adjustment, this amendment to the U.S. Constitution will serve to bring greater honor to the purpose of the Constitution itself, to demonstrate the greater effectiveness worthy of such an inspiring document and institution as the United States, whose foundings were blessed by God, were and are indeed intended to obtain and maintain, in the furthering or accomplishment of the better and more perfect Union that the Founders sought to establish.

PSALM SELECT

PSALM 1, NWT

“1 Happy is the man who does not walk according to the advice of the wicked And does not stand on the path of sinners And does not sit in the seat of scoffers. 2 But his delight is in the law(l) of Jehovah, And he ponders His law(l) day and night. 3 He will be like a tree planted by streams of water, A tree that produces fruit in its season, The foliage of which does not wither. And everything he does will succeed. The wicked are not like that, But are like the chaff that the wind drives away. That is why the wicked ones will not stand up in the judgement, Nor sinners in the assembly of [upright] ones. For Jehovah is taking knowledge of the way of [upright] ones, But the very way of the wicked ones will perish.”

By taking delight in God’s word, receiving of it’s instruction regularly, we can think upon situations we meet each day as to how best to handle them accordingly, reflecting divine wisdom and love. This has God’s approval and blessing, bringing success by Him, trusting Him to be or become as He wills for each of us. The way we do things is highly important to God, to do them with integrity to His lofty ways, and good standards.

PSALM SELECT

Psalm 15, a song of David, outlines essentials to the course of an upright person. Despite it's simplicity, it in no way negates our need to consider God's word, but rather helps to guide our aims regarding our examination of it.

Psalms 15:1-5:

O Jehovalz, who may be a guest in your tent? Who may reside in your holy mountain? 2 The one who is walking faultlessly, Practicing what is right And speaking the truth in his heart. 3 He does not slander with his tongue, He does nothing bad to his neighbor, And he does not defame his friends. 4 He disapproves of anyone whom God rejects, But he honors those fearing Jehovalz. He does not go back on his godly promise, even when it is bad for him. 5 He does not lend his money beyond the going rate of interest, And he does not accept a bribe to testify (declare anything) against the innocent. Whoever does these things will never collapse or be brought to ruin.

Psalms 15:1-5, GNB (with the author's edits for added clarification)

LORD, who may enter your Temple? Who may worship on Zion, your sacred hill? 2 Those who obey God in everything and always do what is right, whose words are true and sincere, 3 and who do not slander others. They do no wrong to their friends nor spread rumors about their neighbors. 4. They [disapprove of] those whom God rejects, but honor those who obey the LORD. They always do what they (rightly) promise, despite the consequence. 5. They do not make loans beyond the going rate of interest and cannot be bribed to testify (declare something publicly) against the innocent. Whoever does these things will never collapse (or fall to ruin).

w0850-54 THEME

2025 CLAIM TO PRESIDENCY

This description is a revision, and now with further explanation: you will know from the first episode of the theme what the overall length will be--mulitiply by 5, anything less than 500 seconds will still be 500, anything more than 900 will still be 900. Otherwise 120,140,160 will become 600,700, and 800 seconds total respectively:

Winit5to9, a carryover from Winit500; addressing worthy issues of significance in 500 to 900 seconds weekly, in 5 episodes, typically between 100 and 180 seconds each, give or take 10's, but 100's total, varying by overall theme and subtopic.

Last season's Winit500 concluding Series was on the incorrect claims of Donald Trump to have won the 2024 election for President, and the basis for a more careful investigation.

It became clear that the elements that in times past would have initiated and followed through on such matters of justice were no longer in place, at least partially dismantled at some point leading up to the 2024 election itself, as in portions of the Department of Justice, esp. offices related to the election and election integrity. 

Just as there was evidence of cheating and underhanded tampering with results on Donald Trump's part, as mentioned previously, he was likewise involved with this maneuver, and his actions following, to claim the Presidency in the DC region, with the appearance [or effect] of wider acknowledgement at least in some areas, give indication of his initial willingness to mislead the American people and cover up injustice, at least to this point or recently.

There has been a change of heart, though, addressing publicly this matter with remorse [or penitence] across the nation, wherever the genuine media coverage without the AI change is being heard and seen.

Understandable efforts to cut wasteful spending with a national debt that I also am addressing, were nevertheless being done, for his part, with questionable intentions, and not with the caution or care that should be expected of the nation's high office.

Truly turning from these things, acknowledging the true God-blessed election results, should bring success [following through] at undoing harm caused such as by restoring lifesaving programs internationally, as in the livlihood of FEMA, the Federal Emergency Management Agency, and USAID, the Agency for International Development, managing such ongoing programs.

Also important offices of Justice should be restored, as integral to our nations' constitution, our very identity--upholding laws for fairness to all people, not subject to the whims of whoever may appear to be (put) in charge at someplace and sometime, as in a dictatorship or some sort of aristocracy. Rather, the Democratic Republic, or more succinctly, "the republic, for which [the flag] stands, one Nation, under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all" is what God has made possible, through that and those it represents.

More next time.

(1-201) In the News...Small Business: A grass-roots organization sought to address at least some valid concerns by recommending a protest, sort of a small-business Friday, to send a message to large corporations that business is not just about making money, although some contest some of their other related messages.

Thus, among the vital lessons of the day is the right balanced view of money--not too much one way or another. There can be balance between locally owned businesses, often called small business, and larger corporations or family-owned bigger business, neither of which should be forced into thinking it's all about money only--it's about needs or acceptable wants of society being met in a just way that enables earning a living (for both owners and employees and partners) and seeking to maintain good profitability--because business needs profit or other help to not only survive but thrive.

Also, people who've rightfully earned money should receive it, and in the United States we trust God to deal justly with those having wealth and using it within the bounds of law. People who need something or money itself to live--we want to see or ensure that they have it, and the ability to learn how to earn a living, if needed, and to possibly receive a reasonable loan (although with care against loaning personally to a stranger/someone you don't know well or is not a trustworthy U.S. citizen or resident) that they will steadily repay as soon as they get back on their feet as needed, esp. if other provisions such as unemployment or social security are somehow deficient at achieving these aims. There also are and should be strong warnings and penalties against trying to mislead or wrongly take advantage of the generosity of both U.S. citizens and residents.

Some ideas along the lines of small business, backing up for a moment, involve making available widespread ads for many grouped or combined small/local businesses together, through co-ops, etc. for placement on television, radio, and internet, etc. These could be portioned by business type, or to encourage getting to know your local shops and businesses generally, and what they may be able to do for you personally, and so on. It is recommended that there not be much in the way of specific items for sale on widespread ads, but rather possibly between 10 and 25% or more off a first-time visit for participating locations in a particular month or something, or on selected sale items and/or services, to encourage such visitation or awareness of product or service availability.

There is another issue that deserves attention involving money or economy and government. The relatively free market system that gave America the economic and trade success the Founders knew lined up with the flourishing societal success as brought by the Renaissance, has at times been diminished or threatened by notions that were likely motivated by real needs not being met by countries, even large, but that could or should have been, searching for answers they hadn't yet found. At the same time, some social or economic concepts they considered worthy could have some usefulness in a perfect society, but only after great, long and extensive progress was or is made lovingly attending to real needs of people everywhere by the unselfish, yet largely business or monetary interventions or aids made possible by a well-regulated but relatively free market system that previously led us to a free society. A real or penitent return to such concepts, with an important correction to underscoring maintained profitability over continuous increase, can realistically help in restoring a good economy and government that truly made America the nation it is becoming again, with faith in it's prime godly or Christian identity.

One other related matter is addressed in a separate piece:

Some posts to come this evening on serious matters; Appeal to Donald to recall the honesty with which he spoke a week ago...

Donald Trump has been continuing to claim the Presidency with actions, statements, and plans without God's blessing as if he really is, most TV statements being staged, but appearing quite genuine. Meta has been helping him, or permitting this. {Gratefully, as of 5/25/25 there is confirmation this stance has changed, may that continue with God's blessing!}

(1-203) (PG Economy) Tariffs on Imported goods from close Trading partners--let's maximize at 10%. 

Despite Donald's continuing to falsely act as president, staging many news clips and so forth, many do not yet know the truth; and he does not have God's blessing. Still, issues are of course being raised. One of his responses to inflation is to react to our trading partners by adding tariffs to their goods exported here to the United States. Our three greatest partners last year were Mexico, China, and Canada, some 42% according to NBC News and the U.S. Census Bureau. We are importing more than exporting, so we do need to look at our ability to provide for not only ourselves, but also other countries in good trade. At the same time, there is nothing wrong with receiving some goods from other countries according to our own needs and so forth. 

Some countries actually have resources that they are meant by God to utilize for trade with other countries, to support their own economic needs. I fully intend and propose that we have a balance in trade with other nations and regions, that the world may reflect a balance of trade. I believe that we should limit any tariffs with partners normally to no more than a reasonable 10% or so if necessary to restore or maintain balance in the purchase of goods by consumers, so as not to risk the important relationships we have nurtured before God with peaceable intent. The 10% is what I'd recommend for Canada and Mexico, but only 5% for China. Let's not take such international relationships, or foreign relations, for granted.

(1-208) GA(013) Theme:

Repost with Remarks from Winit500/Winit5to9 Theme: 2025 Claim to Presidency, Ep 2 Honesty and Unity Among Our States.

Donald Trump admitted to something last month, which he may now be denying, that he is not the President of the United States. The fact is, he did not win the election for President, was and is not blessed by God to do so, but from Day 1 afterward tried to convince the public, the American public, that he had won through various means, which had been an understood strategy of his prior to the election. A falsely comprised media blitz, prepared using Meta, largely prepared ahead of time, with cabinet picks, etc. which by law were not permitted to be obtained or publicized until the start of the new year, was a primary method of persuading the public falsely that he had won. Meta continues to be a platform enabling him to do things and appear to do things that are not genuine, not taking place in the real place nor in real time. {Again, as of 5/25/25 gratefully there has been confirmation from the top that Meta's stance has changed  on this; May this continue, with God's blessing!}

Donald continues to use AI to falsify statements, making people believe sometimes even the opposite of what the truth is or was stated to be, and so on. This widespread falsification is somehow not being addressed by the Department of Justice in a way that reflects any connection to the executive branch, which the same broadcast I'm quoting from below acknowledged was something he (Donald) had attempted to dismantle to some extent. The following is episode 2 of my broadcast from 2 weeks ago [2/18/25], Winit5to9. It began by stressing the value of the honesty Donald had shown in acknowledging the truth at one point, that he had not won the election and was not the real president.

Episode 2, reference w0851: Honesty and Unity Among Our States.

Something should be said for the significance of honesty in addressing the matter being discussed as regards the true God-blessed election results of the 2024 election for U.S. President. 

We have been experiencing something that must never get out of hand as regards the critical matter of unity within the human family and the United States, and we must humbly look to God that we may all deal with this ~ properly, lest the general unity we've maintained ~ and have come to love within our country among our states and citizens that we could take for granted, despite genuine concerns over issues needing real and right attention and so forth, could be lost to strife and division caused by ongoing misconceptions generated by a media anomaly...that is, a ~ disparity between the media in one place and the media in another (, is significant). It likely contributed to the prior impeachment of 2020 [of Donald Trump] and should be acknowledged, that was (that is, the media falsification in certain areas, or called a 'media blitz') substantially hidden, but in violation of significant constitutional laws and safeguards established to protect our union.

We must give this matter the ~ attention it deserves, and sideline any deception and trickery it was conceived with, which threatens our union, our unity, and so forth. And we need to do this on the basis of everyone's need for love and a human society built on trust, respect, and integrity to rightful law and order that has made possible a thriving hope of global peace that we are in no way minded to give up on.

Further Remarks:

What is taking place right now is seriously threatening our union, and is not the way God will bless us to restore and maintain our place in the world, leading the way to genuine peace and prosperity. Our farmers and other workers should not be facing such a threat to their work and livelihood due to tariff trade wars and so on--there are better ways to solve these problems that God truly will bless to do so, rather than through prideful pushing and shoving to get our way. God can accomplish things in a powerful way as needed, but love should still dominate, and genuine peace should continue to be our aim in dealing with one another and with other nations. We have come a very long way as human society in civilization, aiming and acquiring peaceful coexistence, with God's blessing. It's no time to leave that as we navigate our way forward as a nation and a global society looking for world peace, health, genuine security and happiness. 

I appeal to all who can truly understand what is taking place not to go along with intentional falsification and to be more scrutinizing, as some media appears to be saying names that in reality are different than what a news source is genuinely saying, and other things like this are still being done. There has been a combination of such tricks as well as genuine belief among a public for considerable time having truth suppressed so as not to know all of what's taking place, leading to our present state. Please continue to do your best, but be cautious of significant decision-making that may not be based entirely on truth nor on truth entirely, until with God's blessing we are able to get to the bottom of this highly important matter for everyone's benefit.

"Love God with all your heart...Love your neighbor as yourself"

Christ stated the importance of loving God and others, and seeking help from God for what we need, asking Him for the things we are needing. Thus to treat others unkindly is not at all what God expects of us--someone may be in need, but may not be asking God for the help that he or she needs. Thus, it's helpful to bear in mind, if confronted with wrongdoing:

"!Just because you can be mean to someone, does not mean you have a RIGHT to be!; Likewise, !Just because you can cheat, rob, or wrongfully trick someone, does not mean you have a RIGHT to! Let's appreciate the rights we DO have that are protected by the laws of our Republic, respecting GOD!"

 By doing such things as mentioned, one would be breaking God's law! Recall that the greatest commandments of the Law are first To love Jehoval(z) God with all your heart, mind, and power; the second, To love your neighbor as yourself. Doing those things mentioned breaks both laws! Who wants to be a law-breaker or even a bully or criminal, when they can learn the right way to get what they need and want, pleasing God and others? Don't forget to ask God above, the right way, for the help that you need personally! Address Him as your Father who loves you, who wants you to forgive others so He can forgive you, and remember it is through his Son Christ Jesus/Jo'shualz, respecting him and the ransom provision, that prayers should be made!

G7 Meeting Distracted by US and Canada's Dispute Over Tariffs

This matter, as addressed prior [in 1A-205,8B-206,1A-208], that is, the issue of excessive tariffs between the U.S. and Canada, contributed to some contention and words of dispute at the G7 meeting peace talks. Some words apparently made by Donald Trump added to the contention, although some statements were made against notions of a tariff or trade war, by one U.S. representative. He stated: "There's not a trade war...The United States is resetting its trade relations globally to a level of equilibrium, to a level of reciprocity." However, this can still be misunderstood. We've come further as a global community than to reciprocate every reciprocation, or "tit for tat", so to speak. Christ's wise advice encourages a humble respect for one another, and for all to focus on what is truly right and fair by God in each situation, respecting Him. We should only use tariffs in special circumstances, not very often, where what is right and fair in a specific instance is strongly in question, and God Himself should be consulted, as misuse or abuse of tariffs can hinder good and close trade relationships and relations generally. Donald Trump should not be mocking other countries or threatening their sovereignty. 

Let's remember what the United States normally stands for, and should represent. Kaja Kallas, the High Representative of the European Union for Foreign Affairs and Security policy, said regarding some of this: "Of course, these kinds of statements come as a surprise because we have long been friends and allies with the United States...We've done a lot of good things together." Many in the U.S. agree and do not go along with excessive tariffs. We should look to God for His blessing, to be doing as He would have us do. As Christ urged: "Love God with all your heart...Love your neighbor as yourself." Let's keep tariffs in their place, so that we can all continue to respect one another, keeping our peace with God and each other, and continuing to promote the global peace that God has purposed we all have.

 God’s Approval and Blessing Greatly Sought the World Over!

 Addressing Current Conditions.

The two astronauts made it back from their journey in space. Many do not realize what God has done to help many of these ventures, blessing NASA’s efforts to prevent calamity in good projects blessed by Him, and with countless prayers.

Seeking God’s help, and with His blessing on us to straighten things out, we can all be seeing things honestly, and work to comprehend individually what was taking place that was and still has been inherently confusing and divisive to our nation and union. Donald Trump has been using underhanded or crooked ways to persuade the public's view or perception of things. He should recall that it was his using similar methods that got him impeached by the House in 2020; he most likely shouldn't even have been able to remain in the White House afterward, nor, more importantly now, according to founding constitutional law, can he truly be President again for at least some 10 years following that impeachment. So how can he now suggest turning the tables on judges, to try to impeach them? When Donald has been honest about this, and specifically about my election win as President (now with much more awareness in the Washington Area Region), this had and still has great potential to help in restoring things, showing he truly can care as I and a vast majority of real U.S. citizens and residents do about the genuine unity, success, and peace, of the United States and beyond, and our place in the world, blessed by God’s power and love to be as we should be. And Donald could genuinely contribute, but as God sees fit.

 (1-212) Theme: (gv Education, Debt)

 Eliminating Debt Accumulation in the Education Department.

Despite calls to dismantle, the debt can be traced to just one department function, student loan debt, which a plan proposed in recent years is poised to help and correct, while maintaining that which is expected and appropriate. Donald Trump himself is largely responsible for excessive debt accumulation (about $500 Billion) that led to complaints in the first place; at the same time, the need to address unnecessary expenses is widely understood. While the attention was most recently given to student loans and disability programs, the effectiveness of this department to still manage current and future debt properly, along with several other still vital functions, has no grounds for faulting to a serious degree. There are other effective means of addressing government debt and expense. {I'm prepared for giving this the attention it needs, that I had already planned to give it.}

With the recent move, however not pleasing to God, to dismantle the Dept. of Education, the issue of debt has been, however, legitimately raised regarding the $1.8 Trillion that did accumulate until now under that department’s authority over the last few decades, with much of it behind us. The fact is, while there have been several important functions carried out by this federal department, at the same time leaving much of the public school curriculum decisions to the home states, the vast majority if not all of this debt came from student loans provided and managed by it.

There was some debt forgiveness in recent years, with circumstances that had made a proportion of these reasonable. At the same time, I had put forward a fair student debt plan that sought to both provide relief to those in need, and assist with learning, without recording personally identifiable data, how to minimize future issues of unrepaid or difficult to repay debt by getting to the root cause of those issues, and helpfully improving systems or arrangements accordingly. These methods would allow typical students to continue to repay the loans they knew they were going to have in anticipation of a good education and associated fair career opportunities.

As for other department functions, the words of one concerned authority on the matter related this: “If successful, Trump’s continued actions will hurt all students by sending class sizes soaring, cutting job training programs, making higher education more expensive and out of reach for middle class families, taking away special education services for students with disabilities, and gutting student civil rights protections,” as quoted by CNN. Let’s look and appeal to God that this entire situation is addressed the right way so that things can take place more in the manner God has intended.

 (1-215) Theme: (gv Dept HHS)

Health and Human Services - Are These Proposed Employee Cuts Really by Robert or Really Necessary?

Recently, Donald Trump apparently proposed or approved of job cuts numbering 10,000 from the Department of Health and Human Services. This is another department that has been considered as being already more tightly-staffed rather than having an exceeding number of employees. Besides this I repeat that Donald Trump falsely claimed to have won the election for President, publicly acknowledged that he is not President, and is not the one being blessed by God as such. Also, an issue has been raised as to whether Robert Kennedy, Jr. actually wanted this move to take place, when he is interested in the Health Dept. being able to continue doing good, or better, not so much less; Did this eminate as a mere money issue, without more careful planning as to appropriations?

 The Department of Health and Human Services is now another vital instrument of government receiving attention, doing tremendous good for many people, but next in line as though in need of a large reduction of employees, when this is not really the case at all. Should this be merely a money issue, or does the actual vitality, interventions, and accomplishments of such a department body deserve more consideration as regards what measures may be most appropriate when it comes to budgetary concerns?

It should be made clear that there are other real and effective ways to significantly reduce our national debt or expenditure without cutting U.S. government departments so much that important and carefully built-up or structured functions just go away or become much less useful to the public, to our nation as a whole, and sometimes to those in genuine need beyond our borders.

Thankfully, some may be looking into the situation more carefully. Apparently Donald Trump, who has previously acknowledged that he is not truly the President (he was not the true winner of the 2024 election), is apparently still riding on a wave of confusion over this matter, especially with A.I.-affected media in D.C., Virginia, and Maryland since about 2020, continuing to make statements and stage actions (largely through Meta) that are so realistic (himself having been previously considered as President, ‘knowing the ropes’, so to speak) to persuade even many important media outlets that he somehow did win the election when most of the country initially knew that he did not. As regards the Department of Health and Human Services, the number of job cuts advanced by Donald was 10,000, which stands to wipe out many helpful programs and services, or drastically diminish their positive effect on public health. Also, questions remain on whether Robert Kennedy, Jr. really himself approved of this measure, when he is interested in continuing and improving the good being done in this department, not lessening it. Not everyone is aware of some improvement in health provisions that has also taken place somewhat recently.

Other ways of reducing our nation’s debt should begin to be understood or at least discussed, so that especially the most important of government functions and services do not get left behind as casualties to a careless determination to do what can still be done in a reasonable time another way as regards our proper financial position without needlessly harming lives, lessening living standards, or abandoning the very aims of our Constitution, blessed by God. With HHS, there are about 1,000 out of 2,000 interns that have more immediate plans outside of the department, that could soon pursue those other interests, still able to return with future openings if appropriate. With God’s blessing, we already have many solutions to important issues such as these and can solve many more together, in the way that we should, in good policy, making good on certain agreements, restoring some lost good product manufacturing and adding more for good export, correcting some world trade issues, improving use of resources, and in several other ways improving our bottom line significantly, with divine wisdom.

 (1-216) Theme: (gv, Tariffs)

 Urging Strong Caution Regarding Harsh Tariff Plan 

  Some may recall my post of a few weeks ago, (1-203, found below), then urging caution as regards using tariffs haphazardly, due largely to the relationships with other countries and trading partners that have been built up over time with much effort. It is nevertheless understandable trying to use monetary corrections to accomplish certain objectives. I stated there is a need for balance in world trade, and while we are in need of addressing our trade deficit, we need to do this primarily by using the resources we have to make quality and good products efficiently, or using certain resources themselves, that fill market needs not only here but throughout the world, maintaining good trade relations with other countries. At the time, capping tariffs with Canada and Mexico at 10%, and China at 5%, was my strong recommendation, and I urged that we generally go no more than 10% or so when another situation possibly calls for applying tariffs, for example to maintain our own economic vitality in certain markets nationally. Capping at 10% generally helps to maintain clarity on our interest in not only good trade relations with other countries, but a balance of trade throughout the world, which should continue to be a primary aim. Stock market reaction to Donald's tariff plan was fairly intense, and 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.

Golden Apples

Free Will and Divine Intervention, More.

Many have heard these terms, but the Bible helps us fit these and related concepts together as we contemplate God's loving purpose for mankind. First, "Free Will." Did God design us to be programmed to always do things a certain way, or (rather) to be people with freedom, like Him, to learn and make good choices in life, warming the hearts of one another? That's "Free Will." The Bible clearly states that "God is love," and as such wants us to love as He does. Thus we are not fated to either fail or succeed--rather He instructs us to acquire knowledge and learn to tell true from false, good from bad, etc. and to choose accordingly. This ability to distinguish is called "discernment," but might be called "difftell," to tell the difference, for some to comprehend and benefit from this important aspect of wisdom. However, what about things that sometimes happen in the world around us that appear to have been caused by God--experiencing "Divine Intervention"? At times, for instance, He seems to have protected someone's life miraculously, from tragedy. The Bible offers examples of God's intervention at times, but shows He doesn't always choose to do so. The ones saved often had prayed to God for His help. Thus we shouldn't assume that everything that happens in life is God's will--God doesn't purpose that people drive drunk or cause traffic deaths. There are other reasons for these things. Thus we should use knowledge with good judgement to make decisions, rather than 'look for omens,' or signs as though from God in everything, as if God is telling us the future or wanting us to make insensible decisions. Doing this has caused many to jump to wrong conclusions, even about other people. However, there is a difference between “looking for omens” (condemned in Deuteronomy 18) and real ways that God and His holy spirit can help us in life. A key again, is knowledge—things usually make complete sense with God. Let’s get back to this...

FREE WILL. One confusion in English has to do with the question "Why?" Sometimes we are looking for a reason, and other times we want to know a purpose, for an action perhaps. A number of languages actually distinguish asking for a purpose with a term that basically means "What for?". You may have been late for a “reason”, something may have happened to cause it, but likely not for a “purpose” by God, as though intentional by you--He teaches us punctuality, after all. In this respect, the terms "reason" and "purpose" have different meanings. Thus the saying that "everything happens for a reason" is commonly misapplied--not everything happens is God's will or His purpose--as though designed to accomplish something--still we can investigate the reasons something happened and use such knowledge to make better decisions in the future. God’s word gives us so much truthful knowledge to help guide us. With God's word we can better "difftell" between right and wrong! (Formerly ending here, R05.252).

BEING ORGANIZED, OBSERVANT. Getting back to using knowledge in making decisions, it is most important to benefit from God's law, word, wisdom, and reminders of life lessons. God can help us as well at times by being observant, if we know how God views such things as colors, numbers, and things that are understood to carry a certain meaning. For example, you might be reminded of something important you need to do by what someone says to you, even though it may be somewhat unrelated to that exact thing! Something they said triggered an association with the thing you know you needed to remember. The same may apply to solving problems in our life that we may or may not yet know need to be solved. God’s holy spirit is quite powerful to work in such ways, but we should nevertheless be organized and plan things well, so that we’re not inclined or as vulnerable to forget, and we should also be aware of problems we may be having, so we can ask God for help to solve them.

COLORS. Getting back to using knowledge in making decisions, it is most important to benefit from God’s law, word, wisdom, and reminders of life lessons. By understanding God’s use of colors, we may be, not just reminded, but made aware of something that may help us. Holy spirit may not be as inclined to make improper associations with colors as it is inclined to make proper associations with colors. At the same time, colors can carry a lot of different meanings, due to associations that have already been made in life. But we should also know God’s view of colors, so we may come to recognized assocations with these. So while blue is sometimes associated with sadness or feeling down, God associates blue primarily with the keeping of integrity to Him, in the way we live our lives. Since we’re all made in the image of God, we’re all somewhat inclined to be this way, to do what is right, and this is important to peaceably living together, respectful of God and one another. Thus a clear blue sky is a good setting for a beautiful day. A closely associated color to blue is green, and a primary meaning is faith. This is shown by green being used in paper money. We use this in good faith that the money, not counterfeit, will change hands as it should. Of course, green is also associated with nature and natural things, and such things are God’s work, and knowledge of this helps us build faith in Him. Two more colors that generally serve as good reminders are yellow and orange. Yellow is shrewdness, or thinking beforehand about the consequences or end results of an action or decision, good and bad. Of course, this leads to more successful decision-making, speech and actions blessed by God. This is a quality especially men should come to be known for. Orange is compassion, and often likewise associated with caution. A similar term, compection, has been used to underscore the importance of maintaining agreement (pact) with God’s law when feeling for others, helping them see that the best answer really is within it, not needing to violate it or venture outside of it, thereby leading to detriment. So while everything has color, sometimes God’s holy spirit can make something stand out to us, alerting or reminding us of something beneficial.

NUMBERS. Getting back to using knowledge in making decisions, it is most important to benefit from God’s law, word, wisdom, and reminders of life lessons. Also helpful is knowing the godly meaning of numbers which can as well alert us to a situation or condition of things, that may need attention. Numbers usually have a good connotation, but could also have both a good and a not-so-good significance. The number 6, for example, often thought of as regards sin and imperfection, more often refers to kings, and good ones may address the issue of sin with kingly reminders. Divine matters often came to the fore with the number seven (7). The more familiar you are with the Bible's use of numbers, especially the common meaning of the single digits and lower numbers, the more often a number might remind you of something important that you really could give attention to. Still, it should really make sense, rather than something that makes no sense whatsoever—a person reading this should be very wary of jumping to conclusions and again of looking for omens, or a supposed future event. Rather, you may have a caution, or help so as to avoid a problem. So while not trying to read too much into every number, color, or other reminder that comes along, being aware of associations with godly knowledge may gradually reveal sensible interventions by God's holy spirit.

Here are some common godly number meanings:

(1) One, Unity, oneness or togetherness, with God and His will first, there may be other firsts beneath. The “one” in God’s word actually means “three as one”, essential to understanding some important and common things in life.

(2) Two, repetition, second life, second chances.

(3) Three for emphasis, significant number to God, often three are together.

(4) Earth, stability, as in ‘the four corners of the earth’, and the four legs of a table. Earthly things and those of earth.

(5) Heaven, above earth, hand with thumb addition, a 5th or 1st digit, much more capable. All should look above, God and His word, for help, guidance. Heavenly things and those of heaven, angels.

Other familiar numbers may be:

(12) A number of godly organization, such as the 12 Tribes of Israel, the 12 Apostles, and 12 Founding fathers of the United States.

(17) A number referencing God’s word that combines 5 major books with 12 lesser ones, such as grouping the Bible’s OT historical books as well as the prophetic ones.

(20) A number associated with good vision, as in 20/20 considered perfect. This is double ten (10), related to earth, but needing guidance from heaven, also vital to humanity.

(23) Most are familiar with this number as a natural and godly number of significance, as it is 23 pairs of chromosomes in our genetic makeup, of mankind, and so symbolic of life, especially human life.

CLEAN CUP. One more matter of related interest, is in the cleaning or cleansing of a cup used for beverages, a procedure blessed by God's spirit. While normal cleaning, including with a dishwasher, may thoroughly clean something, God’s holy spirit makes a way to ensure soThis is referred to as ‘cleansing’ it, and it simply involves ensuring that a cup, for instance, is already relatively washed or rinsed, perhaps just quickly rinsed, then filling it under slow running water to about 1/3 level, then counting seconds according to the type of cup, and pour out. Plastic, 5 seconds, juice glass 6 seconds, white ceramic for coffee and milk 7 seconds, blue glass or ceramic for water 8 seconds, and red glass or ceramic for tea, soda, and alcohol 9 seconds. You may notice a confirmation, the cup is clean, and not just physically. It is ready to accept a healthful beverage. In the preceding list, you may notice the colors of the United States, but in an order referenced in God’s word: White, Blue, and Red. Verses refer to three, the spirit (white), the water (blue), and the blood, or flood (red), referring to each as bearing witness, and being one, or in agreement. White is associated with cleanness, purity, and righteousness. Blue is again integrity, but to what? The righteousness of white. Blue also cleansing water, connected with truthful knowledge. With such righteousness and integrity, life can be preserved. Red is life and blood, and passion, sometimes activity to save or protect.

GOLDEN APPLES

MIRACLE OF BIRTH, SUPPORTING MOTHER'S HEALTH AND BABY'S DEVELOPMENT

Psalm 139:16 "Your eyes even saw me as an embryo; All its parts were written in your book Regarding the days when they were formed, Before any of them existed."

Psalm 127:1a,3 "Unless Jehovalz builds the house, It is in vain that its builders work hard on it...Look! Sons are an inheritance from Jehovalz; The fruit of the womb is a reward."

MIRACLE OF BIRTH. The miracle of birth should underscore God's right to guide our lives, and a child should be considered just as much God's as our own, to be raised with respect for God's word and with His love.

RELY ON GOD DAILY. Realizing the importance of the mother maintaining reasonable health during time of pregnancy, how important to look to God above, praying to Him daily, to have His guidance to help ensure success! He has great power to assist, even in matters of health that may threaten proper development or the mother's ability for a safe birth.

STAY HYDRATED. This is more challenging than many realize, but nutrients received from foods outlined below should at least assist with doing so. An important thing to realize is that most processed beverages add very little to your hydration level, and might be viewed more as concentrates rather than ready for boosting hydration levels. You should pray about the matter, and add a good spring water to your cup when using store-bought juices and tea, for instance. Often the water should be even 2 times the amount of the normal drink, but you then may wish adding some additional sugar, Splenda or agave to make up the flavor. If using sugar, you could add stevia powder to assimilate it better. You will likely then add about 10-15% to your hydration level with that drink. You should also begin the day with a 1/2 to 1 cup of spring water, to which you may add a little pure aloe vera juice. There are some parts of the body and brain that normally, more so with such things as gluten intolerance, are not hydrated without some regular intake of a good spring water by itself, or with a pure aloe vera juice added, which contributes toward good gut and body health. Also acceptable in this is an artesian water (island/volanic filtered), that may be accompanied by a larger measure of distilled water (usually 1:8), but also with 5 or so drops per gallon of trace mineral drops (seawater with sodium removed, available online or at local health stores), while most distilled water alone is not acceptable as a drinking water. Most purified water is now being RO filtered by Reverse Osmosis with larger holes, making possible genuine filtering of Spring Water that does not remove all the minerals as the original RO filters have been doing, those intended actually for making salty Sea Water (not spring water) potable or acceptable for drinking.

HEALTHY CHOICES. Below is a list of proven delicious and nourishing foods, meals, or snacks that can assist a healthy pregnancy and could be possibly considered by various food banks as worthy foods to provide for an expecting mother. Such a pregnancy and birth should be so enlightening and rewarding to a young woman.

Spir-Vanilla Malted Milkshake: Milk & Natural vanilla ice cream or a little raw honey and a true cane sugar/Splenda to sweeten, and including nonfat dry milk powder and 1/2-1 tsp of Chlorella powder.

Sweet works Oatmeal: Oatmeal fixed as on package of Quaker oats, with unsalted butter or coconut oil, raw honey, brown sugar, half and half, walnuts and/or pecans, almonds, raisins or craisins, and perhaps maple syrup. Iodized salt is much more assimilable and helpful than sodium-chloride alone.

Cold cereal, (preferably a selection with NO inorganic calcium carbonate used as a supposed calcium boost) might also be of value, especially with bananas and perhaps raisins, and possibly Flax seed meal or Wheat germ for a nourishing boost.

Fruit Smoothies, with 1 Tsp-1 TB Walnut oil

Sliced Apples and Bananas, perhaps canned peaches, possibly with raisins and craisins, and/or Banana Bread

NOT: Unrefrigerated Peanut Butter or that mixed with Hydrogenated Oils are NOT to be used due to potential toxic Mold

GOOD: Celery sticks with good refrigerated peanut butter or Almond butter

Iodized salt is much more assimilable and helpful than sodium-chloride by itself. A good mix is 50:50 Fine Pink Himalayan Salt (with trace minerals) and Iodized Salt, with a little dried cilantro added to the shaker.

Salads with walnuts and pumpkin or sunflower seeds, with craisins and good dressing, such as Ranch or Catalina. Add whole grain breads, muffins, etc. with unsalted butter and wholesome jams.

Whole or Frozen Potatoes (instead of Tots use Crinkle Fries), fixed numerous ways.

Healthy meats and other foods may also contribute much to a healthy pregnancy.

Whole Rice combines well with Chicken or Legumes for complete protein.

Above are More Calming Alkaline Food and Protein Choices, Below are Other Healthful Options.

____

Healthy eggs prepared as desired, with shells washed/treated as if for Salmonella

Potatoes may also combine well with Eggs.

Kefir

Evidently Organic corn works well with meats like Beef, Pork, and Turkey.

Also Cranberry sauce helps pork and turkey assimilation, possibly reducing occasional tiredness associated with a larger portion size.

FURTHER NOTES. By replacing less nutritious choices with foods like these, more nourishment can come to mother and baby. This is just a supportive list--consult your doctor for your specific needs nutritionally through the terms of your pregnancy. Also two more considerations: (1) Be alert to removing pollutants that your body may somehow be receiving on a regular basis. (2) Be aware as well that some medications can actually hamper liver function, which affects the process of digestion and lessens availability or absorption of the beneficial nutrients found in the list above. Check with your doctor, and with him/her consider healthful support such as Milk Thistle and pregnancy-safe remedies for kidney function. Avoid so-called milks still using "Calcium carbonate" or chalk as a supposed calcium booster--this form of inorganic rock is not intended for human nourishment, and may contribute to blockages of arteries and kidneys. The confusion has been in it's reacting with an overly acidic body, to lessen bone loss. It is rather plant calcium, such as in Kale or that found in organic dairy products that the body assimilates and uses properly, to build bone. Also, the Chlorella powder mentioned and Kelp can be some of the more important of these foods, as they may assist with ensuring several key nutrients supporting even healthy digestion and metabolism. If absorption seems to be an issue, consider taking some with a vinaigrette or vinegar dressing such as French (best flavor) once or more daily. If doing so, another important supplement you should then be able to take without concern over sodium levels is sodium bicarbonate, which could be added (1/8 tsp) once daily to a juice or tea drink, then if desired also to a soda having seltzer water added. Another way to get bicarbonate into the diet is with the spices paprika and turmeric. Paprika can be added to most meats and meat sauces, while turmeric (containing magnesium bicarbonate) is good with rice, beans, and soups, for instance. Also, don't forget to regularly ask for God's blessing on your efforts!

Fighting Corruption and Bribery—Why, and How*

“You must not accept a bribe, for the bribe blinds clear-sighted men and can distort the words of righteous men.”—Exodus 23:8

Legislation alone has not succeeded in curbing bribery. At one time, corruption was rampant in the world of commerce. “Some companies allocate a third of all their profits just to pay off corrupt government bureaucrats...As the scale of this corruption has increased, the consequences have been catastrophic. During a previous decade, “crony” capitalism—corrupt business practices that favor the privileged few who have good connections—is said to have ruined the economies of entire countries.”

“Two powerful forces keep stoking the fires of corruption: selfishness and greed. Because of selfishness, corrupt people turn a blind eye to the suffering their corruption inflicts on others, and they justify bribery simply because they benefit from it.” However, “a mere lover of silver will not be satisfied with silver” says Solomon. The more material benefits they amass, the greedier those practicers of corruption can become. They thus betray a lack of honest integrity.

FIGHTING CORRUPTION with the Sword of the Spirit. God’s inspired word exhorts: “Put on the new personality that was created according to God’s will in true righteousness and loyalty.”—Ephesians 4:24; The apostle Paul, although imprisoned, refused to sidestep the legal process with a bribe. He preached a message of truth and honesty, and lived accordingly. He wrote “we trust we have an honest conscience, as we wish to conduct ourselves honestly in all things.”—Hebrews 13:18.

The first step in fighting corruption is to recognize that bribery is destructive and wrong. {According to Merriam-Webster, a bribe is “money or favors given or promised in order to influence the judgment or conduct of someone in a position of trust”. The issue becomes violating laws, regulations, or known standards of conduct such as honesty and integrity. A position of trust implies those with a responsibility to the public to uphold integrity to right conduct in their work or public office. Thus accepting a bribe usually means that established laws meant to protect fairness, equality, safety, security, and the public good are being violated with potentially serious repercussions.} Adding to this, James Foley, former U.S. Deputy Secretary of State, said: “We all recognize that the cost of bribery is high. Bribes undermine good governance, harm economic efficiency and development, distort trade, and penalize citizens around the world.” {It was for this reason the U.S. Constitution makes clear that bribery, among other serious violations, could cause one serving as President (or who may not have been truly elected as such) to be impeached from the office.} As Solomon wrote, “By justice a king brings stability to a land, But a man seeking bribes brings it to ruin.”—Proverbs 29:4.

The second step is to recognize that no man or nation needs to be corrupt. God encourages the crooked to leave their way of life and change their way of thinking. He wants each and every one of us to replace greed with unselfishness and corruption with righteousness. “The one who defrauds the lowly one insults his Maker, But whoever shows compassion to the poor glorifies Him.”—Proverbs 14:31. In the past, Jehovah God has intervened to stamp out blatant corruption. For example, he bluntly told the inhabitants of Jerusalem why He would abandon them to their enemies. Through his prophet Micah, He said, as recorded in chapter 3: “9 Hear this, please, you heads of the house of Jacob And you commanders of the house of Israel, Who detest justice and who make crooked all that is straight...11 Her leaders judge for a bribe, Her priests instruct for a price, And her prophets practice divination for money. And yet they lean on Jehovah, saying: “Is not Jehovah with us? No calamity will come upon us.” 12 So because of you, Zion will be plowed up as a field, Jerusalem will become heaps of ruins.” True to God’s warning, about a century after Micah wrote those words, Jerusalem was destroyed and abandoned.

The third step is to understand how a person can change, realizing that “the word of God is alive and exerts power.”—Heb 4:12; Persons deeply involved in corruption have completely changed their ways by considering and contemplating the instruction of God’s word. For instance, a scripture that caused one man to reconsider his ways is found at Proverbs 4:14-16. It reads “14 Do not enter the path of the [crooked], And do not walk in the way of evil men.15 Shun it, do not take it; Turn away from it, and pass it by.16 For they cannot sleep unless they do what is bad. They are robbed of sleep unless they cause someone’s downfall.” This man said “Passages such as this convinced me that those who want to lead a criminal life have no real future. I began to pray to Jehovah and asked Him to guide me in the right way.”

He continues: “Of course, living by honest standards has meant earning a lot less money. But now I feel I have a real future, that my life has real meaning. I realize that my former lifestyle with all its expensive trappings was just like a house of cards waiting to collapse at any moment. Formerly, my conscience was insensitive. Now, thanks to my study of the Bible, it pricks me whenever I am tempted to be dishonest—even in small matters. I am trying to live in harmony with Psalm 37:3, which says “Trust in Jehovah and do good; reside in the earth and deal with faithfulness.” {Finally, the peaceful world God has made possible built on real trust brings greater prosperity, both in matters of spirit and materially, with far fewer considered “poor”. This to go along with promised security and rejoicing, happiness!}

Restore Good - Move Forward

This is M, or Michael, Camelangemy

The proper view of God and life is vital for greater harmony and peace, respect for each other from all walks of life, and with God's blessing on the Republic He established by the Founders, a basis for a government and a nation that can truly care for the needs of it's citizens and the world, rather than a shifting democracy subjecting good and vital practices and systems to serious threats of unhelpful change. Proverbs 22:28 says, Good News: "Never move an old property line that your ancestors established." Such wisdom has guided me in presenting policies, for example, and will help us all in restoring good, while moving forward. We don't need to set aside the laws and bylaws that the Founders established in the Constitution of the United States and other inspired documents by holy spirit. On the contrary, these we need to have God's blessing again, and regain lost happiness. Misunderstandings on this have led to ways of governing and acting that in all honesty have not really been as helpful as desired or in harmony with the wisdom and love of God to safeguard properly the things we should really hold dear. But in spite of a bulwark against the truth of the matter, we can together, as God's spirit prepared me, in my life and run for office, to have more fully the blessings He's promised for a bright future.

Winit500 Series Theme: U.S. Election for President 2024,

Reference (W5a) w0840-44, 11/11-15, 2024

Many or most people across the United States and beyond, have come to know of my having become the rightful president from the 2020 election, having become an Independent candidate, although strongly interested in bringing greater harmony among our parties, running against Joe Biden and Donald Trump, then publicly President. It has become evident that, as the 2020 Election neared, Donald had undermined Constitutional U.S. government, and had done much in an effort to gain future election victories. Still, with God’s blessing, I gained the election win, but in a Washington area region that had truth suppressed, due largely to some powerful influences, but also Donald’s aims of controlling the region’s media in ways never before imagined.

Fast forward to this 2024 Election, with confidence that many more know who I am and what I stand for, and that election victory would this time mean actually becoming publicly the President that so many were and still are looking forward to! By 1 or 2am election night, being Michael Camelangemy and Mark Allen Campbell by birth, I was understood many places to be the projected winner across the country by a fair margin, but evidently, to some or many the truth wasn’t being recognized, at least the appearance of the results being altered somehow, so that news was being projectered that Donald Trump was being considered the front-runner and even the President-Elect. Of course he capitalized on this right away, doing everything he could to support this view, although many election officials stopped counting votes, not having arrived yet at their own determination, most not even reaching the halfway point on the vote count. Apparently the states that Donald claimed to have won did not even reach ¾ of the vote, and there have also been credible reports of election fraud or tampering. There is also evidence that he even planned this maneuver prior to the election, of claiming victory before all the necessary votes had been counted.

Of course, I aim hopefully, still from the White House (when I get there), to protect the United States, from anything that could undermine what makes us tick, and maintain the blessing of God on our nation and activities, to be able to make things right, or Restore Good, as my website articles and policies have encouraged, and Move Forward properly, both here and abroad.

Episode 2, w0841 Theme: U.S. Election, Basis for Investigation

Since last time, some important things to know about the valid basis for investigating Donald Trump’s claim to have won the election.

#1) Is God blessing our choice for President, especially at this important time when the integrity of the U.S. government has been at serious risk, since the time of his previous term? He has shown little faith or trust in the government God blessed the framers of the Constitution to set up, that brought greatness to the United States in the past, and holds promise of restoration by returning to the truthful law they established. God’s spirit blessed me to receive the votes to win the election again, and restore God-blessed government, this time to be made more publicly the President. The fact that the vote count stopped before halfway, extended the normal 3-day period for determining the winner, and the law now allows for time as needed to determine the rightful and true winner.

#2) It has been clarified that Donald Trump really was impeached. Just because the Senate wasn’t able to confirm the impeachment, has no bearing on the U.S. founding law stating that he is not permitted to become President for 10 years following such an impeachment.

#3) Many of the things Donald Trump has used to garner votes were things I have prepared, written, podcasted, designed, patented, etc., that he has tried to steal or take credit for, or have someone else to do this. Especially my patents were acquired in a special legal manner to protect my own rights, work, intellectual property, and so forth, and I did this as among blessings God is allowing me to bring to the United States and the world, with trade potential and so on, looking forward to discussing further implementation of these things in the White House and publicly. Of course I wish many to be a part of bringing these benefits to life, the economy, etc. This was with God’s blessing on me, and another reason God blessed me to be the true winner of this election, and not Donald Trump or anyone else has a right to rob me of my own work nor the joy of leading our work together on these things.

Episode 3, w0842 More Laws, Considerations of Election Results

Here are a few more things deserving attention, regarding Donald Trump’s claim, and the true Election results. According to U.S. law, one who is truly President-Elect is not to publicly begin making staff or cabinet appointments until the turn of the year, in this case beginning actually the third day of Month 1, 2025. As mentioned previously, the stoppage of vote counting due to the early claim of victory, caused the normal 3-4 day period to determine a winner (actually the fourth day includes election day), to be extended until the true election results can be clearly determined, and under the circumstances, this calls for a more public examination of the election results, state by state, according to a careful investigation. 

Also, there appears to be evidence of system data manipulation, where the results being tabulated were not correct, as well as in areas confined mostly to the D.C. and Texas regions, broadcasts, real or conveyed, with incorrect results, due largely to A.I. tampering with media networks. This may have contributed, substantially, to any attempt to persuade the public, even public officials, and news media outlets. Let’s ensure that giving careful attention to such matters in the interests of genuine truth, will yield the results that the people of the United States together chose, that God can bless, for a successful and bright future.

Episode 4, Some of My Work, Past Term, born Mark Allen Campbell

I believe it only fair, having been the projected winner on election night of such an important election, and under the circumstances, to share some of the work I’ve done that contributed to the votes I received, to this time, be inaugurated more publicly. Of course, a person’s prior reputation is important, aiming to love as God and His Son love, and using my knowledge for good, benefitting others. The right education was and is important to me and all, the website I began, own, and author, obtaining the domain myself, findlifeandsee .com, has helped many further their knowledge of God and His Son above, and of practical living, to love and live life as God would have us live, wisely, and this also became a campaign portal, adding segments for responding to current events, as well as Come to Consensus Corner, to share policies, etc. Podcasts, Find Life And See podcast, and then when my then-phone disappeared, Find Life And See Earview Podcast, provided a way for me to share my work and do more. Sharing articles, also my website work on the Psalm 119 Commentary, as well as a Win-it Minute Series, to help in the gaining of divine wisdom in a God-blessed way. Let’s continue with more practical works, a president, next time.

Episode 5, w0844 Some of my Work, Part 2.

Picking up from last episode, there was also some significant work that I began mostly during the last year of Donald’s time in office. I began looking more carefully into some of our most serious problems, daily issues like too-common house fires, and the crisis of energy, fuel, and the environment, climate. Having God’s blessing, solutions were found to greatly impact these and other problems. Then, and since then, other ideas, designs, ideas to help companies make better or healthier products, other improvements for a more secure and happier life, I patented in the interests of peace, good living, reflecting God’s love, an improved national economy, and governmental accomplishment. Along with policies on my website, then and since, and several initiatives, examples I reference on my blog, under Golden Apples, currently GA(11), placed at the top, {time of podcast, 2024}, to become GA(001) the theme: Some Important Initiatives, Campaign Facts, Proposals. Examples include initiatives on education, recall my website and podcasting, also some library initiatives. Also, initiatives on health, American agriculture and industry, homelessness, unemployment, food banks, hurricane recovery, housing, crime, improved public transportation and traffic safety (New York adopted public transportation ideas), 8-Day Calendar, for God’s gift of a longer year, 400 days, explaining some of the seasonal differences, efforts to improve work satisfaction, these still ongoing. Previously I explained that I was the projected winner 1-2 am Eastern Time on Election night by a “fair” margin—I understand that to be an understatement, the margin was rather quite considerable, a landslide. The question has been raised as to what is true—someone playing a trick or casting a spell or gypcra to make something appear true for a moment, or a short time, or what is genuinely true, when God takes away such temporary tricks? Many with honest efforts, including with the U.S. news media, despite past misinformation, can bring the true God-blessed results, again God and His spirit inspiring our government’s founding documents and bringing success, His having little tolerance for bribery or deceiving Americans, rather, with God’s blessing, leading to greater genuine stability and prosperity.

MONDAY'S WINIT5TO9 BROADCAST

This description is a revision, and now with further explanation: you will know from the first episode of the theme what the overall length will be--mulitiply by 5, anything less than 500 will still be 500, anything more than 900 will still be 900. Otherwise 120,140,160 will become 600,700, and 800 respectively.

Winit5to9, a carryover from Winit500; addressing worthy issues of significance in 500 to 900 seconds weekly, in 5 episodes, typically between 100 and 180 seconds each, giver or take 10's, but 100's total, varying by overall theme and subtopic.

Winit5to9: Overall Theme Reference: 

w0850-54, 2025 Claim to Presidency.

Last season's Winit500 concluding Series was on the incorrect claims of Donald Trump to have won the 2024 election for President, and the basis for a more careful investigation.

It became clear that the elements that in times past would have initiated and followed through on such matters of justice were no longer in place, at least partially dismantled at some point leading up to the 2024 election itself, as in portions of the Department of Justice, esp. offices related to the election and election integrity. Just as there was evidence of cheating and underhanded tampering with results on Donald Trump's part, as mentioned previously, he was likewise involved with this maneuver, and his actions following, to claim the Presidency in the DC region, with the appearance [or effect] of wider acknowledgement at least in some areas, give indication of his initial willingness to mislead the American people and cover up injustice, at least to this point or recently.

There has been a change of heart, though, addressing publicly this matter with remorse across the nation, wherever the genuine media coverage without the AI change is being heard and seen.

Understandable efforts to cut wasteful spending with a national debt that I also am addressing, were nevertheless being done, for his part, with questionable intentions, and not with the caution or care that should be expected of the nation's high office.

Truly turning from these things, acknowledging the true God-blessed election results, should bring success at undoing harm caused such as by restoring lifesaving programs internationally, as in the livlihood of FEMA, the Federal Emergency Management Agency, and USAID, the Agency for International Development, managing such ongoing programs.

Also important offices of Justice should be restored, as integral to our nations' constitution, our very identity--upholding laws for fairness to all people, not subject to the whims of whoever may appear to be (put) in charge at someplace and sometime, as in a dictatorship or some sort of aristocracy. Rather, the Democratic Republic, or more succinctly, "the republic, for which [the flag] stands, one Nation, under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all" is what God has made possible, through that and those it represents.

w0851: Honesty and Unity Among Our States.

w0851 Episode 2 of 5.

Something should be said for the significance of honesty in addressing the matter being discussed as regards the true God-blessed election results of the 2024 election for U.S. President. 

We have been experiencing something that must never get out of hand as regards the critical matter of unity within the human family and the United States, and we must humbly look to God that we may all deal with this properly, lest the general unity we've maintained and have come to love within our country among our states and citizens that we could take for granted, despite genuine concerns over issues needing real and right attention and so forth, could be lost to strife and division caused by ongoing misconceptions generated by a media anomaly...that is, a disparity between the media in one place and the media in another. [is significant]. It likely contributed to the prior impeachment of 2020 [of Donald Trump] and should be acknowledged, that was substantially hidden, but in violation of significant constitutional laws and safeguards established to protect our union.

We must give this matter the attention it deserves, and sideline any deception and trickery it was conceived with, which threatens our union, our unity, and so forth. And we need to do this on the basis of everyone's need for love and a human society built on trust, respect, and integrity to rightful law and order that has made possible a thriving hope of global peace that we are in no way minded to give up on.

w0852: Episode 3 of 5

Winit5to9: reference w0852. Overall theme 2025 Claim to Presidency . This episode 3 , Human Society, Technology Recourse. 

Previously, we sought to address the significance of the recent honesty shown in a matter of national importance, and to explain a serious anomaly that has been taking place for some time as regards the media, especially in a few areas of the nation, primarily parts of the Washington DC region.

The aim of such clarification is peace among all. Some have not been ending up with truthful information. A second [or, alternate] version of reality is or was being either believed and shared or artificially generated to viewers and listeners via radio, TV, and internet, supporting a political agenda that has not adhered to constitutional law and safeguards of justice.

This situation should make us keenly aware of how AI and computer technology can be misused and such so-called work should now be disabled, undone, or redone to line up with laws the same way as any other type of action, document, bill of law, or procedure is required to do going forward. See laws already existing that do apply and offer guidance as to what all that is programmed should hold to and stay within, thereby not jeopardizing human society or contributing to human delinquency or violating human rights or laws established to protect them.

God through Christ in the past century worked to establish and maintain good government with good programming. The founders respected universal law. The Bible Book of Job references such work. We are aware of errors that stifle us and are holding us back. We need to cooperate together so things line up. Just as Coronavirus became a common threat to us, our enemy is not each other, but such threats that we need to band together to protect what God has given us, including life and so forth. Let it be peace that we all seek as God has made possible, and that we've come too far as a human family, not to trust him, to achieve together the right way, God's way.

W59 w0853: Episode 4 of 5

Winit5to9: reference w0853, episode 4 of 5, Maintain Foundation of Truth. Adding is a note description of Winit5to9 series recalling 100 to 180 seconds each episode For improved clarity, you will know from the first episode, multiply by five what the total of the week will be between 500 and 900. for example, 140 would be 700 seconds total.

In examining this matter regarding honesty, presidency and so forth, I think it's only right and fair to say something of the impression some were getting about my own aims in this past election and, and ideas and so forth. We spoke previously of the importance of honesty and unity across the states, throughout the United States of America. isn't it on the basis of faith and trust working together that we have and can achieve the good things (that) 

God has purpose for us. God's word underscores this. God blesses us for this and we are not to leave it. It's the course of true love and how we attain not only peace and domestic tranquility as a constitution's preamble states within our borders, but how we can also blessed by God attain global peace and prosperity.

We should be so careful to seek peace with one another, especially when dealing with political matters. Politics should obviously not be about simply seeking power without God or true justice Seeking power in such a way is the opposite and leads us away from the good that we've achieved in the world and takes us way off course. Also, it's not about saying whatever one can get away with to get something. God hates a lie. Lies cause harm that usually has to be undone somehow.

It is about communicating and discussing issues that matter and policies respectably to build up communities, whether local, state, national, or global. There are reasons for misguided methods, but let's not whitewash them.

Episode 5, Honest Significance, Life and Unity.

 I hope that Donald Trump sees the importance, the significance of the honest admission referred to earlier in this week's broadcast, he made as regards my being the true God blessed winner of the 2024 election for President, many realizing that such honesty is significant in restoring God's blessing on our actions as a nation leading to recovery from a division that is not God's answer and is not the true solution to the problems we've had in our land and government and so on.

We do love and have real answers and again, such honesty goes a long way to contributing to the true solution, a restoration of good and the ability to then move forward in right ways that benefit everyone, our United States to be whole again, to be one and the entire human family.

Likewise, remember, Donald has acknowledged also honestly that well among, among the information that was on his social site Truth Social was good information from my own God Blessed work, but copyrighted whole articles I had already put on findlifeandsee.com , but, and, and by law though was not to be passed off as his work, which evidently was happening.

Also, Donald has acknowledged that among the information being put on his Truth Social networking site was information that was untruthful, even intended to mislead, more significantly so for a period of time. Let him acknowledge again perhaps the truthfulness of my election win 2024 as president and vote of the American people. We need real honesty and the healing that God through it makes possible.

Winit5to9, ref. w0865-69 Theme: Some Current Issues To Be Addressed—How? (Introduction)

This is Mark Allen Campbell. A recent Winit5to9 theme was on Good Government, blessed by God, and this is one thing I ran on, in my campaign  to continue as the rightful and true President of the United States of America, with many looking forward to my actually, despite past misinformation and so forth, making the White House, where Joe Biden might have been able to help me, and this time accomplishing together much more what God’s prepared me to be as your President.

However, with belief that Donald Trump won the election, which claim he unlawfully manufactured, and for a time has continued to bolster, I appeal to honest hearts that God really blessed me to win the election and be your President, and He continues to so bless me still, only we can accomplish so much more together realizing this together! I wish to share some of my thoughts on important matters we’re currently facing, such as the Economy and Immigration, but starting with Energy and Environment.

Some important initiatives I began in 2020 can play a part, but mostly working together to be both environmentally aware and to realize that this can be not just good for our health and life, but also for our bankbook, our economy and economic vitality.

#1 – Coal Issue, Wood and Natural Gas

Not everyone realizes that the primary purpose of coal is not for energy use. Wood, on the other hand, is 10-15 times as efficient, and it need only be quartered to be burned at most coal plants, maintaining their viability. Natural gas is a by-product of paper-making, from wood.

#2 – TruGas is made from natural things above ground, and is zero-carbon, but can be processed in the same refineries as typical gasoline, without removing the petroleum from below the ground that is long-term meant to stay there, lubricating massive plates beneath us.

#3 – TruDeezle with (this) recommended spelling difference. This is a newer diesel that also has practically no carbon, which we could begin to incorporate especially in areas where polluted air has been a greater issue, as well as even mixed for deezle fueling on roadways, but not mixing what came to be known as Biodiesel—they may begin making this product, selling off the former. Both of these gas and diesel solutions are cost-effective.

#4 – Hydro and Solar – Capturing waves and rays are both useful, with improved technologies.

Giving attention to and transitioning will help pave the way to a brighter future and clarify our aims of a clean environment that is economically sensible and beneficial.

PSALM SELECT

Psalm 19, from Good News Bible

Notice especially starting verse 7; also you can substitute God's name as Jehoval(z), keeping in mind Jesus Christ above, Jehoshua or Jo'shualz also represents God, AZGOD, wherever you see "LORD" or "the LORD" in all caps.

The Perfect Revelation of the Lord

1. How clearly the sky reveals God's glory! How plainly it shows what he has done!

2. Each day announces it to the following day; each night repeats it to the next.

3. No speech or words are used, no sound is heard;

4. yet their message goes out to all the world and is heard to the ends of the earth. God made a home in the sky for the sun;

5. it comes out in the morning like a happy bridegroom, like an athlete eager to run a race.

6. It starts at one end of the sky and goes across to the other. Nothing can hide from its heat.

7. The law of the LORD is perfect; it gives new strength. The commands of the LORD are trustworthy, giving wisdom to those who lack it.

8. The laws of the LORD are right, and those who obey them are happy. The commands of the LORD are just and give understanding to the mind.

9. Reverence for the LORD is good; it will continue forever. The judgments of the LORD are just; they are always fair.

10. They are more desirable than the finest gold; they are sweeter than the purest honey.

11. They give knowledge to me, your servant; I am rewarded for obeying them.

12. None of us can see our own errors; deliver me, LORD, from hidden faults!

13. Keep me safe, also, from willful sins; don't let them rule over me. Then I shall be perfect and free from the evil of sin.

14. May my words and my thoughts be acceptable to you, O LORD, my refuge and my redeemer!

As regards verse 12, God expects us all to aim to be upright in what we do, to apply His wisdom and counsel. That is why it says 'none of us can see our own errors', that is, before we make them, as we seek to live the right way. Still, a good conscience can kick in and alert us to a mistake, hopefully before we make it, so as to avoid it. If it comes as we're about to make it or after, this leads to awareness and possibly guilt, or depending on severity, a correction if possible. See Psalm 119:1-4 as referencing this matter of godly persons 'really avoiding all kinds of wrong practices', very appealing to those who had little contact with church or the Bible from a young age (although many learned much from others, themselves going), which however, is much more preferable and beneficial, listening and benefitting from God's word and divine law(l) and wisdom on a regular basis, even if it's just a few times a month, while possibly giving God's word daily attention in some way, as we seek to live by it.

Psalm 10:1-18, NWT   {} edit

 [Lamed’]

10 Why, O {Jehovalz}, do you stand at a distance?

Why do you hide yourself in times of distress?

 2 The {crooked} one arrogantly pursues the helpless one,

But he will be caught in the schemes he devises.

 3 For the {crooked} one boasts about his selfish desires*

And blesses the greedy one;*

[*3a, Or “the desire of his soul.”; *3b, Or possibly, “The greedy one blesses himself.” ]

נ [Nun]

He disrespects {Jehovalz}.

 4 In his haughtiness, the {crooked} man makes no investigation;

All his thoughts are: “There is no God.”

 5 His ways keep prospering,

But your judgments are beyond his understanding;

He scoffs* at all his adversaries.

 6 He says in his heart: “I will never be shaken;*

For generation after generation

I will never see calamity.”

[*5, Or “puffs.”; *6, Or “will never stagger (totter).” ]

פ [Pe]

 7 His mouth is full of curses, lies, and threats;

Under his tongue are trouble and injury.

 8 He waits in ambush near the settlements;

From his hiding place he kills an innocent one.

ע [Ayin]

His eyes are watching for an unfortunate victim.

 9 He waits in his hiding place like a lion in its lair.*

He waits to seize the helpless one.

He seizes the helpless one when he pulls his net shut.

10 The victim is crushed and brought down;

The unfortunate ones fall into his clutches.*

11 He says in his heart: “God has forgotten.

He has turned away his face.

He never notices.”

[ *9, Or “thicket.”; *10, Or “strong claws.” ]

ק [Qoph]

12 Rise up, O {Jehovalz}. O God, lift up your hand.

Do not forget the helpless ones.

13 Why has the {crooked} one disrespected God?

He says in his heart: “You will not hold me accountable.”

ר [Resh]

14 But you do see trouble and distress.

You look on and take matters in hand.

To you the unfortunate victim turns;

You are the helper for the fatherless child.*

[ *14, Or “the orphan.” ]

ש [Shin]

15 Break the arm of the {crooked} and evil man,

So that when you search for his {crookedness},

You will find it no more.

16 {Jehovalz} is King forever and ever.

The {idolatrous} nations have perished from the earth.

ת [Taw]

17 But you will hear the request of the meek, O {Jehovalz}.

You will make their hearts firm and pay close attention to them.

18 You will render justice to the fatherless and to those who are crushed,

So that mortal man of the earth may no longer make them afraid.

--Psalm 10, New World Translation of the Holy Scriptures

PSALM SELECT

Many students of the Bible enjoy comparing Bible translations, and they may even consider more than one to be a highly authentic favorite, esp. since English is such a versatile language. The King James version has been long revered for good reason, and of course others have come along. Of course, the most accurate or authentic and relatable translation of verses are well-loved, and rightly so. This is one psalm that carries such an important truth of God's love for all, while still upholding His right and peaceable ways of living.

PSALM 103, GNB

Praise for the Lord’s Mercies

1. Praise the LORD, my soul! All my being, praise his holy name!

2. Praise the LORD, my soul, and do not forget how kind he is.

3. He forgives all my sins and heals all my diseases.

4. He keeps me from the grave and blesses me with love and mercy.

5. He fills my life with good things, so that I stay young and strong like an eagle.

6. The LORD judges in favor of the oppressed and gives them their rights.

7. He revealed his plans to Moses and let the people of Israel see his mighty deeds.

8. The LORD is merciful and loving, slow to become angry and full of constant love.

9. He does not keep on rebuking; he is not angry forever.

10. He does not punish us as we deserve or repay us according to our sins and wrongs.

11. As high as the sky is above the earth, so great is his love for those who honor him.

12. As far as the east is from the west, so far does he remove our sins from us.

13. As a father is kind to his children, so the LORD is kind to those who honor him.

14. He knows what we are made of; he remembers that we are dust.

15. As for us, our life is like grass. We grow and flourish like a wild flower;

16. then the wind blows on it, and it is gone--- no one sees it again.

17. But for those who honor the LORD, his love lasts forever, and his goodness endures for all generations

18. of those who are true to his covenant and who faithfully obey his commands.

19. The LORD placed his throne in heaven; he is king over all.

20. Praise the LORD, you strong and mighty angels, who obey his commands, who listen to what he says.

21. Praise the LORD, all you heavenly powers, you servants of his, who do his will!

22. Praise the LORD, all his creatures in all the places he rules. Praise the LORD, my soul! Praise the LORD, my soul!

PSALM SELECT

Psalm 24 acknowledges the One deserving of our greatest praise, honor, and glory.

Notice how verse 4 highlights some crucial traits of those truly wanting to please God: (1) "innocent hands," seeking to act with blameless integrity to God, (2) a "pure heart," unselfishly motivated to put away or disregard harmful practices, and to treasure what is clean and upright before God. Such ones realize that God will not forever tolerate "those ruining the earth," physically or spiritually. (Revel 11:18). To this end we should carefully guard our close associations, realizing that "Bad associations spoil useful habits." (1Cori 15:33). Also such ones have not (3) "sworn a false oath", nor "taken an oath deceitfully." Lying, especially if thwarting true justice in a court of law, is a practice God hates, contributing to an unfair, unrighteous society missing the blessing of God. While taking reasonable precautions, we should look to God for his support, guidance, and protection to uphold what is right and true, endeavoring to keep our (godly) oaths or solemn promises that are in harmony with God's law and standards, trusting God for "power beyond what is normal." (2Cori 4:7).

It reads:

"1 To Jehovalz belong the earth and everything in it, The productive land and those dwelling on it.

2 For he has solidly fixed it on the seas And firmly established it on the rivers.

3 Who may ascend to the mountain of Jehovalz, And who may stand up in his holy place?

4 Anyone with innocent hands and a pure heart, Who has not sworn a false oath by My life, Nor taken an oath deceitfully.

5 He will receive blessings from Jehovalz And righteousness from his God of salvation.

6 This is the generation of those seeking him, Of those seeking your face, O God of Jacob. (Selah)

7 Lift up your heads, you gates; Open up, you ancient doorways, That the glorious King may enter!

8 Who is this glorious King? Jehovalz, strong and mighty, Jehovalz, mighty in battle.

9 Lift up your heads, you gates; Open up, you ancient doorways, That the glorious King may enter!

10 Who is he, this glorious King? Jehovalz of armies—he is the glorious King. (Selah)"

PSALM SELECT

Psalm 45:1-17, BBE

1 To the chief music-maker; put to Shoshannim. Of the sons of Korah. Maschil. A Song of loves.

My heart is flowing over with good things; my words are of that which I have made for a king; my tongue is the pen of a ready writer. 

2 You are fairer than the children of men; grace is flowing through your lips; for this cause the blessing of God is with you for ever. 

3 Put on your sword, make it ready at your side, O strong chief, with your glory and power. 

4 And go nobly on in your power, because you are good and true and without pride; and your right hand will be teaching you things of fear. 

5 Your arrows are sharp in the heart of the king's haters; because of them the peoples are falling under you. 

6 Your seat of power, O God, is for ever and ever; the rod of your kingdom is a rod of honour. 

7 You have been a lover of righteousness and a hater of evil: and so God, your God, has put the oil of joy on your head, lifting you high over all other kings. 

8 Your robes are full of the smell of all sorts of perfumes and spices; music from the king's ivory houses has made you glad. 

9 Kings' daughters are among your noble women: on your right is the queen in gold of Ophir. 

10 O daughter, give thought and attention, and let your ear be open; no longer keep in mind your people, and your father's house; 

11 So will the king have a great desire for you, seeing how beautiful you are; because he is your lord, give him honour. 

12 And the daughters of Tyre will be there with an offering; those who have wealth among the people will be looking for your approval. 

13 In the great house the king's daughter is all shining: her clothing is worked with gold.

14 She will come before the king in robes of needlework; the virgins in her train will come before you. 

15 With joy and rapture will they come; they will go into the king's house. 

16 Your children will take the place of your fathers; so that you may make them rulers over all the earth. 

17 I will keep the memory of your name living through all generations; and because of this the people will give you praise for ever.

PROVERBS A 1-10

Proverbs 3:31-35

“31 Do not envy the violent man Nor choose any of his ways, 32 For Jehoval(z) detests a devious person, But His close friendship is with the upright. 33 The curse of Jehoval(z) is on the house of the crooked one, But he blesses the home of the upright. 34 For he mocks those who belittle, But he shows favor to the meek. 35 The wise will inherit honor, But the mischievous ones glorify disgrace (and) disrespect.”

“31 Do not envy the violent man Nor choose any of his ways, 32 For Jehoval(z) detests a devious person, But His close friendship is with the upright."

Prove 3:31-32 We are not to envy, or desire what the violent man has, materially or spiritually, possessions or talents. Verse 32 shows this “violent” man is also devious, so we’re not simply talking about athletes who happen to be able to take a lot of pain in their sport. The “violent man” mentioned here deviates from a right course and loves his forceful, destructive ways, usually taking no true delight in gentle mildness, a manner of life for true Christians. We are not to seek to emulate such a man, or choose any of his ways or practices. Normally Jehoval(z) hates WHAT is bad, but in this case God’s word says Jehoval(z) “hates anyone who loves violence”—How serious! (Psalm 11:5). Caution is in order regarding the realism of many movies, music and video games when it comes to promoting violence--what does the work in question teach about violence—it is solving problems without violence that has brought about human civilization and conditions of a growing, relative peace. When God permits it, it is used for right by those with authority to do so when necessary, and NOT used wantonly for selfish purposes. Youths are especially impressionable, and at risk for adopting violent behaviors by involving themselves with wrong choices of so-called entertainment. Certainly there are many finer options that can be chosen! If possible, don’t limit yourself to a few games available at a local store, unless they carry several good choices. Try to find sources that carry many enjoyable, God-approved options in all forms of entertainment, recreation, and education.

"33 The curse of Jehoval(z) is on the house of the crooked one, But he blesses the home of the upright. 34 For he mocks those who belittle, But he shows favor to the meek."

Prove 3:33-34 Which would we rather experience—the curse of Jehoval(z), or His blessing? How happy we may be when acting wisely in harmony with godly truth and right ways, having Jehoval(z)’s favor upon us, humbly seeking His powerful assistance in doing good. The crooked often ridicule the doing of what is good and right, trying to make it seem or appear weak, ineffective, or somehow not beneficial. How unfitting! At Isaiah 5:20 God responds: “20 Woe to those who say that good is bad and bad is good, Those who substitute darkness for light and light for darkness, Those who put bitter for sweet and sweet for bitter!” May we rather treasure the truth, and help all to appreciate the good, lovely, and marvelous ways of Jehoval(z)! If crooked ones refuse to repent of their errors, despite Jehoval(z)’s loving appeals, their harmful ways will come back on them. Isaiah 3:11 says: “11 Woe to the crooked one! Disaster will befall him, For what his hands have done will be done to him!” May such warnings move one to turn around from bad ways and practices, in God’s mercy, and experience true happiness with God’s blessing.

"35 The wise will inherit honor, But the mischievous ones glorify disgrace (and) disrespect.”

Prove 3:35 As a result of pursuing God’s ways, seeking true wisdom and aiming to always represent Him well, thus honoring Jehoval(z) by the way we speak and live, we will experience honor from Him that will continue into eternity. Ironically, the mischievous ones, while often seeking to glorify, and give or demand honor for, themselves, actually glorify disgrace, as their corrupt ways and practices are not worthy of such honor or esteem, and thus could bring them shame or disgrace. Such ones need to acquire an understanding heart, to see the big picture as to reasons for practicing right and hating what’s bad, seeing the ill consequences of badness—the troubles, turmoil, grief, pain, sadness and more caused by sin. Then perhaps such ones may begin to respond to or take to heart the loving discipline that God may provide through parents and others.

PROVERBS A

Proverbs 4:1-8:

"1 Listen, my sons, to the discipline of a father; Pay attention in order to gain understanding, 2 For I will give you good instruction; Do not forsake my teaching. 3 I was a true son to my father And the one especially loved by my mother. 4 He taught me and said: “May your heart hold fast to my words. Keep my commandments and continue living. 5 Acquire wisdom, acquire understanding. Do not forget, and do not turn aside from what I say. 6 Do not forsake it, and it will protect you. Love it, and it will safeguard you. 7 Wisdom is the most important thing, so acquire wisdom, And with all you acquire, acquire understanding. 8 Highly esteem it, and it will exalt you. It will honor you because you embrace it."

"1 Listen, my sons, to the discipline of a father; Pay attention in order to gain understanding, 2 For I will give you good instruction; Do not forsake my teaching."

Prove 4:1-2: Recall that "discipline" is not merely punishment--it comes from the same root as "disciple." Did Jesus go around punishing his disciples, or did he lovingly train and correct them? Of course, punishment may at times be necessary, and can be given out of love for that one. But how much better when that one can be corrected more gently, often with kind words, and even so guided to avoid or lessen mistakes! The counsel here is for the young one to pay attention to such discipline in order to "gain understanding." And gaining understanding reduces the need for disciplinary punishment! In fact, Proverbs 17:10 says: "A rebuke makes a deeper impression on one having understanding Than striking a mischievous person a hundred times." Yes, loving parents will attempt to offer such rebukes when needed, correcting, teaching and training in the way of God. Such discipline as well as simply good instruction, or "admonition" may lead to the gaining of understanding, especially regarding spiritual matters, "what is right and just and fair, the entire course of what is good." (Prove 2:9).

"3 I was a true son to my father And the one especially loved by my mother. 4 He taught me and said: “May your heart hold fast to my words. Keep my commandments and continue living."

Prove 4:3-4: Even with faith in Christ there are commandments to follow. Jesus gave us both commands and principles of truth, God's standards that we are to follow. With faith in God and Christ, we are to be obedient to their instruction, and thereby "continue living." Children are encouraged here to be true to their parents, learning whatever godly instruction may be provided in order to grow spiritually, and become loyal Christian disciples.

"5 Acquire wisdom, acquire understanding. Do not forget, and do not turn aside from what I say. 6 Do not forsake it, and it will protect you. Love it, and it will safeguard you. 7 Wisdom is the most important thing, so acquire wisdom, And with all you acquire, acquire understanding. 8 Highly esteem it, and it will exalt you. It will honor you because you embrace it."

Prove 4:5-8: Wisdom is the successful application of divine knowledge to benefit others and oneself, honoring God. It's the "most important thing," working along with true love for God and others, which are the greatest of commandments (Matt 22:36-40). Understanding is also highly important. "Knowledge comes easily to a person with understanding." (Pro 14:6). Understanding, first of all, involves showing empathy for others, in why they do something, for instance. It involves patience with others, seeing the reason(s) for a mistake, for example, and being merciful while at the same time not approving of mistakes generally, firm for the right way of doing things, what is good and right by God, our Father above. As this is acquired, understanding also enables one to see how all the parts fit together of something, to make the whole.  Love and respect for God should be understood first and foremost, since the awe of God is the beginning of both knowledge and wisdom (Pro 1:7, 9:10). Highly esteem true wisdom, humbly seeking God's honor as did David and other men of faith. Then God may truly bring you honor, safeguarding your reputation, at least as regards Him and His purpose, just as he did with Jesus, despite his being falsely condemned as a terrible criminal. In line with God's will, he thus came to have a name above every other.

Proverbs 4:7-10:

"7 Wisdom is the most important thing, so acquire wisdom, And with all you acquire, acquire understanding. 8 Highly esteem it, and it will exalt you. It will honor you because you embrace it. 9 It will place an attractive wreath on your head; It will adorn you with a crown of beauty.” 10 Listen, my son, and accept my sayings, And the years of your life will be many."

"7 Wisdom is the most important thing, so acquire wisdom, And with all you acquire, acquire understanding."

Prove 4:7 True wisdom is the ability to apply divine knowledge successfully, in harmony with God's right standards, for the benefit of others and ourselves. Understanding sees with compassion why people do what they do; then it can begin to better put the pieces together of something, especially something of divine importance. True understanding, however, requires discernment to clarify right from wrong, good from bad, true from false, and so on, based on divine instruction. The Scriptures says "Make sure of the more important things." (Phili 1:10). Let's seek God's wisdom and understanding by giving adequate attention and reflection on God's word, especially in an appropriate church setting where possible, including Proverbs.

"8 Highly esteem it, and it will exalt you. It will honor you because you embrace it. 9 It will place an attractive wreath on your head; It will adorn you with a crown of beauty.”

Prove 4:8-9 Humbly working to grow in divine wisdom, while respecting God's greatness, will in turn bring us honor from God. It will cause our thoughts and words to be more pleasing to God and others of obedient, God-fearing mankind. While we all want to be liked, respected, or appreciated by others, there may be a snare, trap, or pitfall in this desire if excessive. We should all stand for God's wisdom, His right standards. Yet, God allows free will--He gives us the opportunity to choose to obey Him out of love for Him. Not everyone has made such a choice. Thus, when we stand for what's right, we may find out who really respects us for who we are and what we stand for, and who doesn't! But standing for what's right sets the example for such ones to find everlasting life themselves, if they may turn to God and His ways. While we shouldn't be overly judgmental or condemning of others, we are made in the image of God to at least have good judgement in certain things--however Christ urged his followers to "Stop judging" and "Stop condemning." People may tend to be judgemental, rather than compassionate, merciful, and understanding as God is. Any appointed to judge should do so impartially--not by ethnicity, race, skin color, economic standing, etc. but rather by a person's character and actions--their intent and choices to pursue a good course. If someone makes foolish, bad decisions, or acts in wrong ways, we may rightly judge them to be poor associates, at least until they learn to turn around from such behaviors. We still love such ones, and may seek to help them understand the right way to live, but we must do so with the greatest of caution, as they themselves may try to influence us against what is right! Thus, 1Corinthians 15:33 exhorts: "Do not be misled. 'Bad company corrupts good character.'" (NIV). And Proverbs 13:20 similarly says: "Walk with the wise and become wise, for a companion of fools suffers harm." (NIV). At the same time, some have misinterpreted or misused such notions as "Birds of a feather flock together". Remember that many different types of birds often feed and interact together--be empathetic and understanding, still using good judgement. Therefore, hold true to God, and look forward to the day when all earth's inhabitants will be friends of God, genuinely respecting Him and each other, living right and loyally loving one another! (Psalm 37:29; 2Peter 3:13).

"10 Listen, my son, and accept my sayings, And the years of your life will be many."

Prove 4:10 God's guidance and direction does generally contribute to longer life now, but much more in receiving His reward of endless life in the future. Thus, once again, the key to a long, satisfying life is in pleasing God--listening, and accepting His sayings. Jehovalz is the God of truth, and does not intentionally lie to us. He thus has proven eminently trustworthy, reliable. Such a loving father, who cares for each of us, we should ever want to please Him and offer Him acceptable worship--even if just by accepting the truth from God, letting it touch our heart by pondering it's value in our life, and thereby living and acting in harmony with it. Since it is the truth, we should practice honesty ourselves, "speaking the truth in [our] heart," and not dealing deceitfully with others (Psalm 15:2). Still, we should learn to use good judgement in what we choose to say to others. Encouraging such qualities as humility, reliance upon God, doing good work, and being rich in fine works, 1Timothy 6:17-19 thus helps all to "get a firm hold on the real life." It then cautions against the contradiction of the "falsely called 'knowledge.'"--while this could refer to so-called knowledge that is false, violating what is holy, and opposing the truth of God, this more likely is referring to the “contradiction” of believing that acquiring facts about everything somehow makes us better than others or draws us closer to God. While such learning can be beneficial and add to our wisdom, it is knowing God and divine wisdom with God’s instruction, that means life and happiness to us! May we be alert to such things, and truly accept and treasure the sayings of God!

Proverbs 4:11-13:

"11 I will instruct you in the way of wisdom; I will lead you in the tracks of righteousness. 12 When you walk, your steps will not be hindered; And if you run, you will not stumble. 13 Hold on to discipline; do not let it go. Safeguard it, for it means your life."

"11 I will instruct you in the way of wisdom; I will lead you in the tracks of righteousness."

Prove 4:11 Really listening to wise ones, especially wise parents, can help us to become wise, as will paying attention to good instructive lessons at church, and from other godly sources, and learning to read Bible books such as Proverbs, Jesus' teachings, those of his apostles, and the rest of God's word. Are you in the habit of regularly receiving such instruction or reminders? Is it not refreshing and/or helpful to our spirit, or inner self? How often do you receive physical nourishment or food? Daily? Likely, several times a day. And do you request God's blessing on your daily food, to effectively nourish you? Why not have even short times of examining matters of spirit, or pondering how best to handle the situations we meet day by day, sometimes requesting God's help or blessing? We will gain understanding and improvement in how to deal with others and walk with God uprightly, bringing Him great pleasure.

"12 When you walk, your steps will not be hindered; And if you run, you will not stumble."

Prove 4:12 When we walk according to God's integrity of conduct, we will have God's favor and blessing, and will experience less in the way of spiritually harmful consequences than disobedient ones. We may choose to "walk" in serving God, or when our circumstances permit, we could choose to "run" in serving Him, accepting greater responsibilities in pleasing God. This may be as we gain more confidence that we know how to rely on God through Christ, keeping the right way. Instructed in true wisdom and doing right, we will not stumble either way. Psalm 119:165 says to God: "Abundant peace belongs to those who love your law (or word); Nothing can make them stumble." Still, the next verse or set of commands is important!

"13 Hold on to discipline; do not let it go. Safeguard it, for it means your life."

Prove 4:13 How vital to reject the bad kind of prideful thinking or egopride and instead remain humble before God and others, even when being offered correction. "So let the one who thinks he is standing beware that he does not fall." (1COri 10:12). The gifts and talents that others have, often better our own, and we received such from God himself, so we should have no room for boasting, except in God Jehovalz. While on earth, leaving a model, Jesus always sought God's glory above his own, and was sensitive to God’s genuine guidance, or the help of His holy spirit (1PEter 2:21). So may we appreciate and view as essential good discipline generally--loving and helpful correction, though possibly stern at times--received from others, especially a parent, step-parent or guardian, a congregation elder, or even police officer, that is likely to be in harmony with God's word. This is definitely one of the ways that God/Christ helps to guide us. Of course, it’s best when given for the right reasons and in the right way. Such correction may mean our very lives, even endless life as God has purposed, in true happiness!

Proverbs 4:14-19:

"14 Do not enter the path of the crooked, And do not walk in the way of evil men. 15 Shun it, do not take it; Turn away from it, and pass it by. 16 For they cannot sleep unless they do what is bad. They are robbed of sleep unless they cause someone’s downfall. 17 They feed themselves with the bread of wrongdoing, And they drink the wine of violence. 18 But the path of the upright is like the bright morning light That grows brighter and brighter until full daylight. 19 The way of the crooked is like the darkness; They do not know what makes them stumble."

"14 Do not enter the path of the crooked, And do not walk in the way of evil men. 15 Shun it, do not take it; Turn away from it, and pass it by. 16 For they cannot sleep unless they do what is bad. They are robbed of sleep unless they cause someone’s downfall."

(4:14-16) The wise counsel here is to shun, or "turn away from" the path or the way of wrongdoers. We should never be envious of what they seem to have, or so-called benefits they seem to gain by their wrong or harmful practices. They are robbed of sleep unless they do bad, or cause someone's downfall. Are they motivated by true love? Do they have the reward and blessing of God? Not that way. So what is their future? Without repentance or turning around, As Asaph realized in Psalm 73:18-19, "Surely you place them on slippery ground. You make them fall to their ruin. 19 How suddenly they are devastated! How sudden is their finish as they come to a terrible end!" May we follow the path leading to eternal life, in true peace and happiness, and help others find and remain on this path! Let wrongdoers repent from such an erring course, and really find God's blessing as they honestly seek good, desiring no longer to cause harm to another, as that is essentially what sin is and why God warns us against it.

"17 They feed themselves with the bread of wrongdoing, And they drink the wine of violence."

(4:17) What may have turned them to bad thinking to begin with was what they were feeding their minds on spiritually--much exists in the way of "the bread of wrongdoing" and the "wine of violence." There is much entertainment making bad practices seem to bring happiness, or at least a temporary pleasure. Such promoted ideas are usually a boldface lie, hiding the resulting headaches, heartaches, troubles, sorrow, pain and grief caused by such practices. God knows the way of true happiness for all people, the way that not only brings us and others pleasure and true happiness, but that leaves no scars, nor leaves us battered spiritually. Proverbs 10:22 says "It is the blessing of Jehovalz that makes one rich, and He adds no pain with it." And James reminds us, at James 1:16-17: "Do not be misled, my beloved brothers. 17 Every good gift and every perfect present is from above, coming down from the Father of the celestial lights, who does not vary or change like the shifting shadows." Man often tries to run ahead of God, taking gifts from God just a little while before God was going to give it. We often just need to learn a little patience, appreciation, and self-control, things we can pray to God for, to be thankful for what we have now, and prepare or ready ourselves for the future gifts God will bring us at the right time, when we're truly ready for them.

"18 But the path of the upright is like the bright morning light That grows brighter and brighter until full daylight."

(4:18) Upright ones are drawn to the truth of God, letting it lead them to the true path going toward eternal life. May all Christians be willing to discard any belief that is found to be out of harmony with God's reliable word, even if Bible translators believed it, and made it seem to be true in their translation! Some truths may be harder to decipher, but we want to be shrewd and on guard against believing a lie. Proverbs 14:15 says "The naive person believes every word, But the shrewd one ponders each step." May we be very careful before accepting anything into our belief system that might not be entirely true, even if a minister may believe it and seem to use scripture to justify his belief. The scriptures may be taken out of context, or even (usually rare) be translated unfaithfully. Reliance on God and more insight into the scriptures may be needed to clarify truth, but the truth is in harmony with the entire Bible, so almost invariably the truth can be discerned by comparison of other scriptures discussing the same subject. They should all be understood harmoniously. If unsure, let's pray and wait on God for further clarification.

"19 The way of the crooked is like the darkness; They do not know what makes them stumble."

(4:19) Those acting falsely do not have the light of God's word to guide their path. They stumble and fall, experiencing trouble, pain, and grief, and often not knowing why their path is not leading them to the happiness they thought they were finding. May we cling to our loving God, who can bring us to the true happiness we're seeking, leading us to experience it even more fully in His new world of rightdoing and peace, and eternal life. Psalm 19:8 says: "The orders from Jehovalz are honest, causing the heart to rejoice; The commandment of Jehovalz is clean, enlightening the eyes." Keeping God first, respecting His law, allows us to become and remain clear-sighted, largely able to see and reject our own mistaken paths. (Ps115:1-5; Psalm 36:1-2)

Proverbs 4:20-23:

"20 My son, pay attention to my words; Listen carefully to my sayings. 21 Do not lose sight of them; Keep them deep within your heart, 22 For they are life to those who find them And health to their whole body. 23 Above all the things that you guard, safeguard your heart, For out of it are the sources of life."

Prove 4:20-22 God and parents can say a lot, but if we aren't listening well, how will we benefit? We are to "pay" attention. When we pay money, for instance, we're giving up something. To "pay" attention, we have to give up concentrating on other things to focus on the one speaking, or the words of God we're reading or hearing. If you don't really pay genuine money for that steak dinner, someone may come looking for you. Let's not pretend to "pay attention"--let's really give up other things to genuinely concentrate on what's more important, to "listen carefully!" Jehoshua/Jesus said at Luke 8:18: "Pay attention to how you listen, for whoever has will be given more, but whoever does not have, even what he imagines he has will be taken away from him." To truly comprehend what we're hearing, we need to cultivate genuine understanding and discernment, to put things in proper place in our minds and hearts, and judge between truth and falsehood, right and wrong, and so on. Otherwise, what we hear may be going "in one ear and out the other!" Of what value is this? Once we have these things in our heart, we should keep them there, treasuring the spiritual insight and direction that God and parents may give, as this can lead us to eternal life and good health both spiritually and perhaps with time, physically. (Job 33:25). Such things are actually worth paying "more than the usual attention!" (Hebre 2:1).

"23 Above all the things that you guard, safeguard your heart, For out of it are the sources of life."

Prove 4:23 One of the values of God's word is it helps us gain a proper view of priorities, which gives us "soundness of mind." What do you seek to protect in life? What is so important to you that you would guard it with everything you have? God tells us here that it is our heart that we should safeguard "above all the things that you guard." This would certainly include our relationship with God, whom we are to love with our "whole heart." (Matth 22:37). Our figurative heart is primarily our entire spiritual being, our qualities, values, and viewpoints, as we see things from God's perspective. Especially our integrity to God and His ways should be preserved. If we don't protect our heart, we could easily stray. We are to protect it from wrong thinking, not necessarily follow it. When some sing of following your heart, we should think of our dreams and purpose in life, as God made us to be happy doing certain things. The things of the spirit are related to our mental faculties, part of one's 'heart'. The two, heart and mind, are at times separated to clarify that one could have or gain knowledge without affecting his heart and real behavior, thus setting him up for an unfavorable course of deception, as though knowing what's right but not doing it. One would need help from God to correct this, God wanting to 'give wisdom generously, and without reproach.' (James 1) Therefore, we should ponder what we're learning from others, from God or parents, to truly see how to live according to what we're learning. Then the words of Proverbs 27:11 may ring true in our case, where God says "Be wise, my son, and make my heart rejoice, So that I can make a reply to him who taunts me." Some who followed poor examples may have become liars, deceivers and taunters of God, but all who truly appreciate God's way, the way of the truth, and seek to live by it, oppose wrongdoing and give Jehovahz evidence that His way promotes genuine happiness among His human creation.

Proverbs 4:24-27:

“24 Put crooked speech away from you, And keep devious talk far away from you. 25 Your eyes should look straight ahead, Yes, fix your gaze straight ahead of you. 26 Smooth out the course of your feet, And all your ways will be sure. 27 Do not incline to the right or the left. Turn your feet away from what is bad.”

"24 Put crooked speech away from you, And keep devious talk far away from you."

Prove 4:24 Crooked, or twisted, speech would not be entirely honest or straightforward—thus usually spoken with a hidden motive, such as wrong desire. The deception may not be as intentional and the degree can vary—yet it is hoped that faith or trust between family members can grow and be maintained. This speech is to be put “away from” us, while “devious talk far away.” This speech also has wrong motive, but deviates from a right, lawful course, and is especially cunning, said with intention of hiding the truth. We should learn to hate all such speech, as trust is based on sincere honesty and straightforwardness. Parents should especially keep guard on their children’s close associations, as well as some views or attitudes presented in music, movies, etc. Parents need to help their young ones appreciate trust and honesty, being willing to answer their questions honestly, though according to their age or development. As challenging as it may be, parents should not give their child the impression that they don’t want them to ask questions—at certain times God has made them to be especially inquisitive. They may more wise in helping to guide them. Wouldn’t you rather be the one they turn to for answers, rather than someone else, who may not be truthful or not have their best interests at heart?

"25 Your eyes should look straight ahead, Yes, fix your gaze straight ahead of you."

Prove 4:25 Yes, we should walk straightforwardly, and keep our eyes on the path ahead, avoiding the distractions that may appear to our left or right. We should be on the path leading us to eternal life in true peace and happiness. We will then practically be able to go anywhere and do anything in harmony with God’s right standards, finding such delight in company with our marriage partner and dear friends. Even the near future will bring enjoyable work, cooperating with friends and loved ones to clean up this earth and turn it into a veritable Paradise, ready for the return of those who have died, being able to welcome our ancestors and encourage them to remain for life everlasting. We have much to look forward to, so may we delight in the gifts of God that we may enjoy daily while we endeavor to work at what is good now, doing God’s will to the extent possible, helping many appreciate godly truth, to turn from wrong ways and habits. In our personal lives, looking ahead helps equip us for challenges that we or our loved ones may need to face.

"26 Smooth out the course of your feet, And all your ways will be sure."

Prove 4:26 Thus let’s help our children prepare for what lies ahead, assisting them to grow in divine knowledge and wisdom to learn how to make good decisions daily, keeping God in mind—decisions that parents can take delight in! By growing in such knowledge, and taking it to heart by pondering it’s application to our daily lives, we may make it easier to walk a straight path, and “smooth out the course of our feet.” To fully do this, we need to gain the qualities of divine wisdom, such as understanding, discernment or “difftell”, foresighted shrewdness, and the healthy fear of Jehovahz, which fear “means the hating of bad.” As we grow in such qualities, and “trust in Jehovahz with all” our heart, taking Him into account in all we do, then all our “ways will be sure.” (Prove 3:5-7).

"27 Do not incline to the right or the left. Turn your feet away from what is bad.”

Prove 4:27 In this world many distractions or wrong ideas have been dangled in front of us daily. Suggestions to pursue this or that sometimes have been mixed with things we should not be desiring. We may receive a beneficial lead to something we truly need or that is of real value. But scams have been commonplace. May we keep a focused eye on our family’s lasting happiness, and our sincerely pleasing God. Especially should we avoid pursuit of “what is bad,” in the respectful fear of Jehovahz. Let’s help our family to “hate what is bad,” seeing the rotten fruitage of badness—the problems, headaches, heartaches, and the like that it leads to, away from lasting happiness and eternal life. Especially help them keep God close in mind and heart, treasuring their relationship with Him. How fine when what we can see in music, tv, movies, and so forth truly honors God, or helps people to do so! Psalm 97:10 says “10 O you who love Jehovahz, hate what is bad. He is guarding the lives of his loyal ones; He rescues them from the hand of the crooked.”

Proverbs 5:1-6:

"1 My son, pay attention to my wisdom. Listen carefully to my discernment, 2 So that you may guard your thinking abilities And safeguard knowledge with your lips. 3 For the lips of a wayward woman drip like a honeycomb, And her mouth is smoother than oil. 4 But in the end she is as bitter as wormwood And as sharp as a two-edged sword. 5 Her feet descend into death. Her steps lead straight to the Grave. 6 She gives no thought to the path of life. Her course wanders, but she does not know where."

"1 My son, pay attention to my wisdom. Listen carefully to my discernment, 2 So that you may guard your thinking abilities And safeguard knowledge with your lips."

Prove 5:1-2: We should all pay careful attention to what we learn from Proverbs, the rest of God’s word, and instruction from Him in other ways on a regular basis. Even after we have learned much divine knowledge, Hebrews 2:1 says "That is why it is necessary for us to pay more than the usual attention to the things we have heard, so that we never drift away." Regular instruction and reminders from God protect our spirituality, relationships with Him and others. There are different ways of approaching the same subject, so we shouldn't be put off if we're hearing something we already know. The apostle Peter wrote, at 2Peter 1:12: "For this reason I intend always to remind you of these things, although you know them and are well-established in the truth that is present in you."It is knowledge that can lead others to everlasting life--try to see a difference in the way such knowledge is being presented each time. When Jesus/Joshua was trying to teach his followers humility, they struggled to get the point, in the competitive, class-driven society of their day. But he would each time try a different approach to the same lesson. It still took time, but they would eventually get the point. Peter counseled, for instance, at 1Peter 5:5, "In the same way, you younger men, be in subjection to the older men. But all of you clothe yourselves with humility toward one another, because God opposes the haughty ones, but he gives undeserved kindness to the humble ones." Peter understood and taught discernment, to see the difference between egopride that God opposes, and humility that He blesses.

After the counsel to guard thinking abilities, we read:

"3 For the lips of a wayward woman drip like a honeycomb, And her mouth is smoother than oil. 4 But in the end she is as bitter as wormwood And as sharp as a two-edged sword. 5 Her feet descend into death. Her steps lead straight to the Grave. 6 She gives no thought to the path of life. Her course wanders, but she does not know where."

Prove 5:3-6: An immoral woman can have compelling words, being seductive, and the trap of an immoral course can bring bitter consequences, with potential harm to the flesh and the spirit, possibly bringing a condition of spiritual death. However, there can be figurative meaning to these words as well. In the Scriptures a woman can represent a group, a collective body, such as God's "woman" of "wife" of heavenly angels above. As regards groups on earth, how fine when such look wisely above, pleasing God, recognizing God's chosen leader and supporting the doing of God's will! Even if some have strayed, may they come to hate any wrong conduct or activity that could lead others astray, and rather accept Christ's merciful ransom provision, making possible genuine forgiveness of past wrong from God's standpoint, turning from such to seek activity in agreement with God's will and the blessings of His Kingdom! We should all hate immorality in any form as it becomes clear what God's reasonable standards truly are, thus promoting endless life in the right way. The answers really are inside the lines of God’s law, and not outside of it. For those of age not far from adult life, there is even true engagement as God’s way for two to work toward a wonderful marriage, His own family arrangement.
