House Intel Chair Turner warns of ‘serious national security threat,’ urges Biden to declassify 

House Intelligence Committee Chairman Mike Turner on Wednesday urged President Biden to declassify information related to a “serious national security threat.” 

Turner, however, did not specify the nature of the threat.

“Today, the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence has made available to all Members of Congress information concerning a serious national security threat,” said Turner, an Ohio Republican. 

“I am requesting that President Biden declassify all information relating to this threat so that Congress, the Administration, and our allies can openly discuss the actions necessary to respond to this threat.”

White House National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan said White House press briefing, after Turner’s social media post on the matter, that earlier in the week he offered to personally brief the “Gang of Eight on the matter Thursday and declime to provide any detail at least until before that time.

The Gang of Eight is the Democrat and Republican leaders of the House and Senate and the chairmen a top member of other party on the Senate and House Intelligence committees.

“I am a bit surprised that Congressman Turner came out publicly today in advance of a meeting on the books for me to go sit with him alongside our intelligence and defense professionals tomorrow,” Sullivan said, according to FoxNews.com.  

This does not surprise me at all. A porous southern border and an ineffective foreign policy emboldens our enemies. Peace through strength. Our pretend President shows weakness and confusion. Rh

The Bride of Christ

Today I would like to speak about the Bride of Christ as opposed to the Body of Christ.  I will attempt to explain my reasoning why I believe that they are two distinctly different entities of the Church.  The Body of Christ consists of all who have confessed Christ as their savior.  The Bride of Christ are the ekklesia or the sold out bond-servants of Christ.   Let me explain.

I do not believe there are different levels of Christianity.  Some worship Christ for salvation only, and still enjoy  worldly desires.  They may even be oppressed in mind or have certain desire or lust they are trying, but unfortunately not able to completely overcome.  They settle for a good Christian life, but with fleshy struggles.  Their Bible study and prayer is sporadic and their discipleship is non- existent.  The growth track they are on keeps their desire in the milk of the Word, not meat.  They have not exercised their learning beyond the simplistic doctrines of the Church.  They live in the elementary aspects of basic Christianity.  To grow in Christ, find a mentor, get into a good Bible Study, find someone you trust to be a battle buddy to share and pray with.  Most importantly read the Word!  Neglecting the Word is neglecting Jesus. (John 1:1)  Remember Jesus was not a man that became the Word, but the eternal Word who took on flesh and became a man.  (Philippians 2:5-11)  Fully God and fully man.

In Matthew 25 we have a parable of the wise and foolish virgins. The wise virgins are a type of the true Bride of Christ.  They have a full supply of oil (Holy Spirit) and are ever watching for the Messiah to come back.  May I ask, are you full of the Spirit, and longing to be filled every day? Their desire is to follow and please the Lord Jesus.  They are aware of the time we live in, meditating on Christ and praying even if it is just a few minutes several times throughout the day.  Following Paul’s admonition to pray without ceasing. The constant desire of  bond-servants of God is to be pleasing to Christ and walk in submission to the  Holy Spirit.  They aren’t perfect, but they long to be transformed into the very image of Christ, “partakers in the divine nature of God”.  (2 Peter 1:2-3),

The church is to be, sanctified, cleansed and presented to Christ without spot or blemish. (Ephesians 5:26-27)

A glorious church. 

There are two priorities of the Bride, the Word and the Spirit.  Worshiping in Spirit and Truth. (John 4:24)  Live in the Word, and walk in His Spirit!

 The Spirit and the Bride say “Come!” (Revelation 22:17)

 You were born for such a time as this.  Be strong and courageous for God chose us for this particular time.  If He chose us, He will sustain us!

Maranatha – Even so, come quickly Lord Jesus.  Amen!  Rh

Obama/Biden & Jewish Prejudice

WASHINGTON (AP) — President Joe Biden on Thursday issued an executive order that targets Israeli settlers in the West Bank who have been accused of attacking Palestinians and Israeli peace activists in the occupied territory, imposing financial sanctions and visa bans in an initial round against four individuals.

Biden’s order is a rare step against America’s closest ally in the Mideast who, Biden says, has the right to defend itself. But the Democratic president has pressed Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s government to show greater restraint in its military operations aimed at rooting out Hamas. Netanyahu denounced the U.S. penalties, which his government was notified in advance, U.S. officials said.

Palestinian authorities say some Palestinians have been killed, and rights groups say settlers have torched cars and attacked several small Bedouin communities, forcing evacuations.

Obama/Biden have a history of involving themselves in Israeli politics. Maybe they should concentrate on the United States, instead of nation building. Wow to those who try to divide the land of Israel Rh

Counter Culture

For those of us who were born in the mid 20th Century, what we see happening in our world and especially in the United States of America is an affront to liberty, morality, and the rule of law.  What are we thinking?  Such nonsensical dribble that is spewed out by self imposed single digit IQ social and governmental advocates is enough to drive one to  a high mountain to escape.  Many times I have thought of a more tropical environment.  

Society tells us that men or women can change their sex with an operation.  Really?  Can men give birth?  What used to be considered a mental illness just a couple of decades ago now is not only accepted but must be celebrated with flags, monthly celebrations and an acquiescence to a “Gender Mafia” worldview.    Have we lost all sense of reason and intelligence?  The damage being done is incalculable.  

Global climate change enthusiasts warn of the destruction of the world if our temps climb one degree.  But as a former farmer, a few extra days of warm temps without frost could increase production.  You predict global temps to the exact degree, but a 5 day forecast is unpredictable?  But, but, the computer models.  Yeah junk in, junk out. The mid 70s brought a fear of a mini ice age.  Check out the front page of Time and Newsweek magazines popular at the time.

Rule of law tells me that all are created equal under our judicial system, but how do we explain the poor without access to high end law firms taking plea deals that benefit the system not justice.  Politicians go to Congress and become multi millionaires on a salary of less than $200 thousand dollars a year.  Insider trading, bribes and book deals along with the never ending campaign fundraiser that siphon off $ to put in their personal coffers are the culprits.  Let me mention just a few names to illustrate, Clinton’s, Biden, Pelosi, McConnell, and of course Obama (who started this class warfare) are just a few.  Above the law and also older than dirt.  Dare I mention the FBI, Trump dossier, Neo-Cons never ending wars and shh, Hunter Biden?  The defense rests!

Finally open  borders, can we even conceive of a government openly ignoring their own laws to allow an invasion on our Southern Border and going so far as to threaten a sovereign State with military action??  We are being infiltrated with a purposeful invasion to destroy the very fabric of our Republic.

I choose not to participate.  Morality and right has not changed, I still believe in the American Way, the golden rule and hope for a better future.  However as long as we are living in the days of Noah where society does whatever it deems to be their right, I see a rushing headlong to destruction.  

I am officially part of the CounterCulture.  Today that means I am a proud Christian Conservative who believes in morality and the infallibility of the Bible.  Viva the Resistance!

I Stand With God! You were born for such a time as this!
