Creation

Isn’t this evidence from scripture that God created the earth in six literal days? He asks us to do the same: to work six days and rest one. Genesis 1 and Exodus 20:11 use the same word for day, “yom.” ~Lance

This is a 24 hour period. We are not always faithful about taking off work, yet we agree with Rushdoony that in stopping work we recognize that everything is from God. It does not all depend on us.

Questions Regarding the Fort Hood Massacre:

1) Why were the soldiers not armed?
2) If the federal government--including the Department of Homeland Security, the Department of Defense could not protect US soldiers on one of the most tightly secured and heavily guarded military installations in America, how can anyone in...the country possibly not break out in cacophonous laughter when politicians tell us we need to surrender more liberties so that they might pass more laws to protect us crummy little peons?
3) How could one man armed with only two handguns fire over 100 rounds (demanding he reload at least 3 times) into a crowd of scores and hundreds of fearless combat-trained warriors?

Eric Hovind debated Athiest

This is wonderful seeing Eric Hovind debate an evolutionist at American River College. Thank you, Eric, for speaking at ARC and at Kaweah. You are a great blessing. We think God will give more time to take dominion here.

I asked my husband what to do when I strongly disagree with him and feel he really needs to listen to me on a particular point. He asked that I bring one of the children, I assume with an older one, and discuss it together with him.

Mom and Dinah say it is the best movie they've seen. What a testimony to an awesome God! What beauty! We are strategizing how to share it locally.

Former President

President George W. Bush did not introduce, lobby for, nor sign any law that acknowledged the right to life and so could stop the killing of even a single child. Instead he had an enormous pro-abortion influence, e.g., giving Planned Parenthood hundreds of millions of dollars more than did even Bill Clinton.

Bill O'Reilly: "I Don't Care About The Constitution"

Andrew Peterson - Holy is the Lord

Take your son, your only son, Isaac, whom you love,

and go to the region of Moriah.

Sacrifice him there as a burnt offering

on one of the mountains.” Gen. 22:2

Those who sow in tears
Shall reap in joy.
He who continually goes forth weeping,
Bearing seed for sowing,
Shall doubtless come again with rejoicing,
Bringing his sheaves with him.
Psalm 126:5-6
My picture of this verse is of people carrying precious seed, needed for food, to plant.
They risk starvation if they give them up, but face certian starvation if they do not.
We have a choice: to weep when we plant or when we reap.
Either we sow with great effort and sacrifice and Lord willing, reap with joy,
or sow with laziness on our emotions and reap that harvest.
Child training, friendship, finances...

"Forgiveness

in the Bible is always conditional upon true repentance. Unconditional forgiveness is simply the total, unconditional toleration of and acceptance of evil. It demands that we accept the criminal, the pervert, the degenerate, the subversive as they are. " ~R. J. Rushdoony

Plantain - The Wedding Saver

by Shoshanna Easling of Shoshanna Gardens.com

It was Friday on a very beautiful day. The sun shone with a special delight on the black-eyed daisies, and the light breeze blew them very softly in the wind. They were dancing our wedding tune!


That very morning I had gone out with James’ parents and picked about 300 black-eyed daisies along with many other wildflowers. It was now afternoon, the day before our wedding. You can imagine how I was feeling excitement beyond my wildest imagination! James and I were in our Jetta, driving over to Gabe’s house. We had the sunroof open as we talked about last minute plans. In a burst of joy, I stood up through the sunroof yelling like a wild Indian. I felt like a girl in a fairy tale. Everything was so perfec….ooow, ouch! I grabbed at my eye as it started to throb and swell shut. The pain was really intense...

Common antibiotics tied to birth defects

Study: Drugs to treat urinary infections could cause heart, brain problems
updated 1:06 p.m. PT, Mon., Nov . 2, 2009

CHICAGO - Researchers studying antibiotics in pregnancy have found a surprising link between common drugs used to treat urinary infections with birth defects. Reassuringly, the most-used antibiotics in early pregnancy — penicillins — appear to be the safest.

http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/33588427/ns/health-pregnancy/

This article reminded me of when someone close to us had a bladder infection while pregnant. She used raw garlic and recovered. (For a infection like that I would use 5-10 cloves at a time.) She was dizzy and sick, I think with a flu, but with plenty of water, the garlic and rest she got better. While antibiotics are useful and lifesaving in the right context, it's helpful to know a remedy that is close by, inexpensive and safe, especially for pregnancy and breast-feeding.
