"The Hodgkin's Lymphoma Cancer 11 yr old Child Hoax" By Reverend Barbara Sexton "The Biblical Biochemist-Where Science Meets the Cross"

Dear Ones:

BEWARE the phony PRAYER REQUESTS starting with, "Special Prayer Request from Peggy Lesley at Brookwood Church" . "I am starting a signing for my son's best friend who has cancer (Hodgkin's Lymphoma). He is 11 years old and is not doing well, at all." 

IT IS A HOAX loosely based on some 'truth'!: http://www.snopes.com/inboxer/prayer/hodgkins.asp

Most people, I do believe, have good intentions.  Especially on matters of faith, we tend to take each others' words at face value.

Yet even the best of us can be deceived.
THERE IS EVEN A FACEBOOK PAGE FOR THE "SICK CHILD" in QUESTION: http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=2219514237&v=wall#!/group.php?gid=2219514237&v=wall

Since I don't know how many of my readers have ever heard of this scam, I am writing about it here.

And here's my suggestion for a REAL PRAYER LIST.  Let's start with the person or persons who have participated in this HOAX with less than noble intentions.  Pretending to have cancer is not nice and not funny. 

Let us pray that God has mercy on the unfortunates who think it is...that they change their ways and have a miraculous conversion to 'sentience'.
AMEN.

God Bless You this day and forever,
Reverend Barbara Sexton

"Drugs We Take & In Our Food Which Affect Our Sexuality" By Reverend Barbara Sexton "The Biblical Biochemist-Where Science Meets the Cross"

courtesy http://www.jellymuffin.com/

Dear Readers:
     You might be asking, "What in Heaven's Name is Rev. Barb talking about here and what do DRUGS and FOOD have to do with SEXUALITY?  And what does SEXUALITY have to do with RELIGION?"
     Well, I'll tell you.  The answer is, "Everything!"
     Just recently on Beliefnet, I wrote a comment referring to the subject at hand.  I want to post it here, along with one of many  'Warning Letter' from the FDA about antibiotics they've found in food.
     In the body, antibiotics tend to act as much as 'hormones' as they do as antibiotics.  When a pregnant or nursing woman is exposed to antibiotics and other drugs, environmental chemicals and 'lifestyle substances like recreational drugs and alcohol', the ENDOCRINE and NERVOUS systems of her child are affected. 
      Every ORGAN and TISSUE in the fetus or baby's body is affected, in fact, and, so--the fetus or baby's 'SEXUALITY' is  ALSO being affected.
     What a child or adult EATS and DRINKS also has a similar effect.  If you've any doubt about the effects of food, drugs or chemicals on the sexuality of the human body, consider the male chronic alcoholic.
     When a male drinks for an extended number of years at a level which his body cannot effectively and efficiently 'clear' (meaning that his LIVER gets overloaded), he will progressively become 'feminized'.
     You see, men and women BOTH make male and female hormones.  Men make androgens PLUS estrogens.  Ordinarily, the male liver 'clears' excess hormones, especially the female hormones of which only so much is needed in the male.  In the chronic alcoholic male, the liver is damaged and overloaded and unable to 'process' the female hormones--which he himself makes--out of his system.
     The result?  Primarily it's a shrinking of the testicles, a growth of breast tissue, loss of face and body hair and a lowering or loss of libido.  This sad state powerfully illustrates the strong influence hormones have on our vitality and health. 
     Just so you know, a similar mechanism exists for chronic marijuana smokers and is why you see certain men develop enlarged breasts to the point that surgical reduction is sought in some cases!
     So here is my Beliefnet piece, followed by exactly the kind of FDA action that occurs all too often:

"Rev. Barb -- isn't that a bit like saying there are no gay Catholics, evangelical Christians, Orthodox Jews, etc.?" Nicole Neroulias said.
You are ONE SMART COOKIE, Nicole. Of COURSE there are gays of ALL religions and among atheists and agnostics, too. I was being FACETIOUS and reminding all that the edicts against 'homosexuality' in Islam and the Quran are MANY and HARSH.
As a biochemist who has studied the SCIENCE of 'homosexuality', I know that the BIGGEST sex organ we have is our BRAIN. And I know that the brains of fetuses are either 'masculinized or feminized' before birth...and then again after birth at puberty. Of course, our sex organs are exposed to these same hormones, as well.
We must also take environmental influences (i.e. antibiotics which act as 'ESTROGENS', both those from our health care providers as well those in the meats some of us eat, for example)into consideration.
I am comfortable saying that people are born with 'one sexual inclination or another or sometimes--both or something in-between'. What we DO with our amazing brains and sexuality is what matters in the eyes of God. Speaking of eyes, the variations of human sexuality are as diverse as all the eye colors humans ever displayed.
Our Creator made us the way we are so that we can have an opportunity to 'have at it' with our 'free will'.
Islam beats the band when it comes to condemning homosexuality in a way I simply cannot abide by. (Conversely, I've no stomach for 'ACT UP IN YOUR FACE' GAY POLITICS.)
Especially distressing to me is seeing lesbian Christian women uplifting and upholding Sharia Law Islam which dictates what a woman may wear, do, believe and think. To my way of thinking, this is a 'human rights' violation of the tenth degree and I do not understand it.
God help me if I can't stand up for my gay family members and other LGBT love ones.
With Love in Christ,
Rev. Barb

And here's one of many FDA recall/warning letters about 'meat' containing unacceptably high levels of antibiotics.  The public almost never gets to see these and is not generally informed about this routine 'alteration' of our food supply.

WARNING LETTER
CIN-10-127191-22
Mr. Roy L. Raber, Owner
Raber View Holstein
7029 County Road 201
Millersburg, Ohio 44654
Dear Mr. Raber:
On August 3 and 9, 2010, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) conducted an investigation of your dairy operation located at 7029 County Road 201, Millersburg, Ohio. This letter notifies you of the violations of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (the Act) that we found during our investigation of your operation. You can find the Act and its associated regulations on the Internet through links on FDA's web page at www.fda.gov.
We found that you offered for sale an animal for slaughter as food that was adulterated. Under section 402(a)(2)(C)(ii) of the Act, 21 U.S.C. § 342(a)(2)(C)(ii), a food is deemed to be adulterated if it bears or contains a new animal drug that is unsafe under section 512 of the Act, 21 U.S.C. 360b. Further, under section 402(a)(4) of the Act, 21 U.S.C. § 342(a)(4), a food is deemed to be adulterated if it has been held under insanitary conditions whereby it may have been rendered injurious to health.
Specifically, our investigation revealed that on or about January 7, 2010, you sold a bob veal calf, identified with the auction's backtag #(b)(4), for slaughter as food. On or about January 8, 2010,
(b)(4), slaughtered this animal. United States Department of Agriculture, Food Safety and Inspection Service (USDA/FSIS) analysis of tissue samples collected from this animal identified the presence of 0.829 parts per million (ppm) of sulfamethoxazole in the muscle and 0.484 ppm of sulfamethoxazole in the liver. FDA has not established a tolerance for residues of sulfamethoxazole in the edible tissues of cattle. The presence of this drug in edible tissue from this animal in these amounts causes the food to be adulterated within the meaning of section 402(a)(2)(C)(ii) of the Act, 21 U.S.C. § 342(a)(2)(C)(ii).
Our investigation also found that you hold animals under conditions that are so inadequate that medicated animals bearing potentially harmful drug residues are likely to enter the food supply. For
example, you failed to maintain treatment records for the animals you produce. Food from animals held under such conditions is adulterated within the meaning of section 402(a)(4) of the Act, 21 U.S.C. § 342(a)(4).
We also found that you adulterated the new animal drug sulfamethoxazole and trimethoprim (800 mg/160 mg per tablet). Specifically, our investigation revealed that you did not use sulfamethoxazole
and trimethoprim as directed by its approved labeling. Use of sulfamethoxazole and trimethoprim in this manner is an extralabel use. Title 21, Code of Federal Regulations (C.F.R.), Section 530.3(a) (21 C.F.R.530.3(a)).
The extralabel use of approved animal or human drugs in animals is allowed under the Act only if the extralabel use complies with sections 512(a)(4) and (5) of the Act, 21 U.S.C. § 360b(a)(4) and (5), and 21 C.F.R. Part 530, including that the use must be by or on the lawful order of a licensed veterinarian within the context of a valid veterinarian/client/patient relationship.
Our investigation found that you administered the human drug sulfamethoxazole and trimethoprim tablets to a bull calf without following the withdrawal period as stated in the approved labeling or any written directions by a licensed veterinarian. Your extralabel use of sulfamethoxazole and trimethoprim tablets was not under the supervision of a licensed veterinarian, in violation of 21 C.F.R. 530.11(a); and your extralabel use of sulfamethoxazole and trimethoprim tablets resulted in an illegal drug residue, in violation of 21 C.F.R. 530.11(c). Because your use of this drug was not in conformance with its approved labeling and did not comply with 21 C.F.R. Part 530, you caused the drug to be unsafe under section 512(a) of the Act, 21 U.S.C. § 360b(a), and adulterated within the meaning of section 501(a)(5) of the Act, 21 U.S.C. § 351(a)(5).
The above is not intended to be an all-inclusive list of violations. As a producer of animals offered for use as food, you are responsible for ensuring that your overall operation and the food you distribute is in compliance with the law.
You should take prompt action to correct the violations described in this letter and to establish procedures to ensure that these violations do not recur. Failure to do so may result in regulatory action without further notice such as seizure and/or injunction.
You should notify this office in writing of the steps you have taken to bring your firm into compliance with the law within fifteen (15) working days of receiving this letter. Your response should include each step that has been taken or will be taken to correct the violations and prevent their recurrence. If corrective action cannot be completed within fifteen (15) working days of receiving this letter, state the reason for the delay and the time frame within which the corrections will be completed. Please include copies of any available documentation demonstrating that corrections have been made.
Your written response should be sent to Mark E. Parmon, Compliance Officer, U.S. Food and Drug Administration, 6751 Steger Drive, Cincinnati, Ohio 45237. If you have any questions about this letter, please contact Compliance Officer Mark E. Parmon at (513) 679-2700 Ext. 162.

PLEASE TAKE CARE with the health of your family and loved ones.  I recommend purchasing only 'organically raised, free-range' meat.  Those who treat foodstock animals kindly and with minimal use of drugs, etc also happen to produce the safest meat available to consumers.  Mass meat production is cruel, unhealthy and unconscionable.  Just look at the burgeoning Salmonella problem in the poultry industry today.

'Olfactory Memories Of September 11, 2001' By Reverend Barbara Sexton "The Biblical Biochemist-Where Science Meets the Cross"

courtest http://www.gospelgifs.com/   Jim Sutton

     Nothing will wipe away the olfactory memories I carry to this day of what I smelled on that sad September 11, 2001.
      Imprinted in my brain is the 'smell' of a mixture of 'the smoke'...of wet concrete dust and some wood...of jet fuel and more smoke.
      I have a 'good nose' as a chemist and always did.  What served me so well while formulating and testing drugs and cosmetics only served to torture me.  Now I know for certain that sometimes ignorance really is bliss.
     We saw the orange glow and the smoke from our vantage point, too.  We viewed it from the land and we viewed it from the water as we cruised at a 'respectful speed' towards the horizon of burning, smoking, glowing, hazy-hot what-used-to-be the WTC area of Manhattan.  Others joined in this 'spontaneous flotilla'--ready to help, accompanied and observed by the Naval and U.S. Coast Guard and other ships in the area.
     In a sense we were all there involuntarily.  We were drawn to the water in order to get as close to 'Ground Zero' as possible for whatever may come after the initial terrible crashes, explosions and collapses.
     All of us were on alert, while at the same time grieving, shaking our heads at the vision unfolding before us.  We could only take in only so much before we slowly headed for port for more grieving, responding and strategizing.
     When a plane flew overhead, whether we were on land or sea, all eyes assessed it anxiously.  Was it ours?  Would it be shot out of the sky?  We were ready for anything by that time and 'up' for it, too.
      Things got much worse fast.  After four or five days the even more ominous odor of death and decay wafted towards the house, over the Sound and smack dab in our direction.  It was so bad by then, that smell creeping opportunistically every time someone dared to open a door or window.  There was no such thing as 'getting some fresh air'.  There was no such thing as 'catching one's breath' after being overcome with emotion.  The air was ropey and foul--thick with heartbreak, anger and fear.
     You'd have to hold you breath between house and car, those of us doing 'community work'.  The air was saturated with the stench of terrorism in a way I shall never forget and I was changed that day.  As the ashes of a beloved sprinkled below a growing plant become a part of that plant, so that stench became a part of all of us, as we breathed those days.  Our skin and hair absorbed it;  there was no escape at all.
     On the day that the odor of decaying human bodies first arrived at our door, I impulsively 'took the day off' and drove up the line.  I had to escape that stench and nothing short of a family emergency would hold me back.
     Me--the one with the 'strong stomach'--I couldn't take it.  All that I'd seen and smelled and experienced over the years meant nothing these first weeks after September 11, 2001. 
     I think it was the persistent and lingering 'jet fuel' bottom note on 'stinker day' that finally made me break down.  I wished I couldn't detect what I could. 
     Today I will tell you something I've never spoken of publicly before.  I knew that this 'new' smell reaching us represented those walking wounded who never reached us at our Stamford Rail Road Station/Stamford Hospital Triage staging area. 
     Steel vaporizes, you know (or so an architect friend told me the day of the attacks).  That's why the two towers 'collapsed' as they did.  I don't know how an architect can know with such certainty a few hours after the attacks that 'there would be no survivors'...but that's what he told me.  I listened to him and was better prepared for what was to come counseling-wise because he was right.
     So that scent of molten, vaporized steel--that was something I'd never smelled before either and you can add that note to the repellent and deadly smell of terrorism those first few weeks after Sept. 11.
     Even as I was 'escaping', I was reviewing likely 'constructs' sure to evolve around the debate of 'whether or not' first responders and survivors of 9/11 would sustain lasting respiratory and other injuries and sequelae.  Shades of 'Agent Orange' debate from years ago when Uncle cruelly rejected victim claims. 
     How much better today that September 11, 2001 claims were not so similarly dismissed, but still, it's been a struggle to see justice meted out so that truly innocent victims can be compensated.
     These are my olfactory memories of those days.  I've auditory, visual, tactile and worse sensory memories I don't completely share, but these are some.  
God Bless America,
Reverend Barbara Sexton

'FCC Stamford 'Prayer Vigil' Rallies For NYC Mosque!' By Reverend Barbara Sexton "The Biblical Biochemist-Where Science Meets the Cross"

free wallpaper for personal use with backlink to:

www.WilliamKalutaPhotography.blogspot.com

        
     This very day I wrote a piece  about an August 24, 2010 'Interfaith Prayer Vigil' at FCC Stamford on Walton Place: http://dearoneshealingministry.blogspot.com/2010/08/fcc-stamford-goes-pro-muslim-by.html  in support of Muslim communities in the Stamford area and Southwestern CT. 
     Naturally I questioned  whether or not the 'purpose' of this 'prayer vigil' was actually a 'front' to promote the building of the NYC Ground Zero Mosque.   I just HAD to ask since this August 24, 2010 event is slated to be held at 'my old church', now under the tutelage of one Rev. Dr. Cari (Carrietta aka Carrie) Jackson.  Curious minds are, well, you know, curious!
     The 'blurbs' I came across today about the 'prayer vigil' in the Stamford Advocate and on the Interfaith Council of Southwestern CT website http://www.interfaithcouncil.org/  were rather 'innocuous-sounding', such as follows:
"Tuesday, August 24th, 2010 6:30 p.m. Interfaith Prayer Vigil in support of Muslim communities in Fairfield County, on the grounds of First Congregational Church, 1 Walton Place, Bedford Street, Stamford. All are welcome to gather peacefully with members of our Muslim, Christian, Jewish, Hindu, Sikh communities - and people of other religions who choose to join in - to lift voices in prayer for peace, respect and collaborative ministry in the Stamford area and Southwestern Connecticut. For more information contact Kate Heichler (kateheichler@gmail.com ) or Mark Lingle (marklingle.pastor@gmail.com )."
     NO SOONER did I publish my little piece about this 'pro-Muslim prayer vigil set for August 24, 2010 in my 'beautiful' former 'Pilgrim Church of Stamford', than a certain 'MOTHER LODE' of information was brought to my attention!  Can't you give a girl a BREAK?
     That mother lode comes in the form of an interesting propaganda 'piece' penned by one profile-less FAISAL QUADRI  (quad...@richmancapital.com ) under a 'Google Group' called 'Sunday Cricket'. 
     I don't know WHO or WHAT this Faisal is, but he or she sure answered my questions and let the cat out of the bag.  The full body of his/her posting is below in small print, but suffice it to say that KATIE, I'VE GOT A REALLY IMPORTANT QUESTION FOR YOU. 
     Let me ask you once and for all:
IS THE PURPOSE OF YOUR INTERFAITH COUNCIL OF SOUTHWESTERN CT PRAYER VIGIL FOR MUSLIMS IN STAMFORD AND FAIRFIELD COUNTRY REALLY ONLY TO LEND AID AND SUPPORT TO MUSLIMS OR DO YOU GO SO FAR AS TO USE YOUR POSITION AS DIRECTOR OF THE INTERFAITH COUNCIL TO FURTHER THE CAUSE OF GETTING THAT NYC GROUND ZERO 9/11 MOSQUE BUILT?
     We ALL want to know and more than that, we here in Fairfield County DESERVE to know.  Personally, I don't have much respect for those who use their status as 'clergy' to further their political and fiduciary aspirations without regard for the ones they serve (God first and people second).  At least honestly represent your people, you know?  Is it possible, Katie, that you are SO caught up in  'progressive-lib Dem politics' and have such a great need for notoriety and funding that you may have bitten off more than you can chew?

If so, speak up Katie.  We will understand.  But just don't expect that 'your flock' are stupid guppies too cowed by 'political correctness' who won't ask questions.  And certainly don't think that the good peoples of Stamford--the 'good Muslims', the Jews, the Christians, the Hindus, the Buddhists, the Sikhs and the many agnostics and atheists ARE FOOLISH ENOUGH to buy into false politico-religious propaganda, questions unasked.  We happen to be a bright, thinking, educated, sentient group here, as a matter of fact.  And I am ever-leery of the crossing of the line between 'church and state' as a survivor of and witness to the UCC politics which helped get our current President elected!

So answer up, Katie Heichler of http://www.interfaithcouncil.org who is working closely with Rev. Cari Jackson http://www.facebook.com/people/Cari-Jackson/520216546  and  at The First Congregational Church of Stamford fccstamford@gmail.com

Katie, you've both already been 'OUTTED' by Faisal Quadri (quad...@richmancapital.com ), so why don't you just 'come clean' about the true motives behind the August 24 'Pro-Muslim Prayer Vigil at FCC Stamford'? Faisal's diatribe is below:

Faisal Quadri (quad...@richmancapital.com ) says: "The InterFaith Council of Southwestern Connecticut; Christian, Muslim and Jewish is organizing a prayer/vigil for the Muslims of Fairfield County due to the opposition being faced in regards to the ground zero masjid, Norwalk masjid plans, as well as recent incident at the Bridgeport Masjid (see below).
It will be on Tuesday, August 24th, 6:30 p.m. at the Grounds of First Congregational Church (1 Walton Place at Bedford Street, Stamford)."

When: Tuesday, August 24, 2010 6:30 PM-7:00 PM (GMT-05:00) Eastern Time (US & Canada).
Where: Grounds of First Congregational Church (1 Walton Place at Bedford Street, Stamford)
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
Assalaamualaikum All,
The InterFaith Council of Southwestern Connecticut; Christian, Muslim and Jewish is organizing a prayer/vigil for the Muslims of Fairfield County due to the opposition being faced in regards to the ground zero masjid, Norwalk masjid plans, as well as recent incident at the Bridgeport Masjid (see below). It will be on Tuesday, August 24th, 6:30 p.m. at the Grounds of First Congregational Church (1 Walton Place at Bedford Street, Stamford).
We need a sizeable crowd to attend and would appreciate a CONFIRMED headcount. If you read this email, PLEASE RESPOND if you can make it. We all be fasting at that time, and it will only be for about half hour, and everyone can leave for the iftaar on time. The interfaith was kind enough to approach us directly offering their support. Lets show up.
If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me (Faisal Quadri) faisalqua...@hotmail.com or Naveed Khan (naveedak...@gmail.com).
Jazak-Allah khair.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
CONTACT:
Kate Heichler, 203-415-1962 or kateheich...@gmail.com
Mark Lingle, 203-570-6226, marklingle.pas...@gmail.com
WHAT: Interfaith Prayer Vigil in support of Muslim communities in Fairfield County.
WHEN: Tuesday, August 24th, 6:30 p.m.
WHERE: Grounds of First Congregational Church
1 Walton Place at Bedford Street, Stamford
WHO: InterFaith Council of Southwestern Connecticut; Christian, Muslim and Jewish
communities
WHY: Tension and rhetoric has been increasing over the basic and peaceful religious practice of Muslims in Bridgeport, whose worship service was protested by a group of Christian fundamentalists on August 6th. (See press coverage, including the Connecticut Post http://www.ctpost.com/news/article/Angry-protesters-descend-on-mosque...). At the same time, other events - the obstacles to building a mosque on Fillow Street in Norwalk; with the controversy growing over the Cordoba Initiative's efforts to build a Muslim community center near Ground Zero (Muslim Community Center near Ground Zero) are calling our attention to the fact that our Muslim brothers and sisters in Stamford feel threatened and isolated.
The InterFaith Council has a long history of tolerance and support for the diverse religious expressions found within the communities of southwestern Fairfield County, and seek to build understanding among the various traditions. Its president, the Rev. Kate Heichler says, "The recent actions by a Christian fundamentalist group against the Masjid An-Noor mosque in Bridgeport compel us take a public stand against religious intolerance and hatred here in Fairfield County, in New York City, and wherever it rears its head."
All are welcome to gather peacefully with members of our Muslim, Christian, Jewish, Hindu, Sikh communities - and people of other religions who choose to join in - to lift voices in prayer for peace, respect and collaborative ministry in the Stamford area and Southwestern Connecticut. For more information contact Kate Heichler (kateheich...@gmail.com) or Mark Lingle (marklingle.pas...@gmail.com).

ARE YOU or AREN'T YOU going to use this prayer vigil to promote the NYC Ground Zero Mosque, Katie and Cari and all you 'Interfaith' people?  Just tell us 'yes' or 'no'. 

Those of us in Stamford and environs deserve to know.  Many from up here lost loved ones down there--please remember this, so we'd appreciate 'an answer'.

And don't expect to extract donations from the good people of this area if you are not prepared to be 'forthcoming' with your intentions...both those obvious and those not so obvious.

Thank you and GOD BLESS YOU for an honest and prompt answer,

     By now, you know from general news reports that something's going on in earth's upper atmosphere, not to mention on the sun, itself.  You can bring yourself up-to-date by looking at my series of 'TUTORIALS' listed below and at the right.
     But what may not be as obvious and IS NOT YET MENTIONED IN THE PRESS...is the fact that SEISMIC ACITIVITY all over the world is UP.  There are a great number of earthquakes at this time, although I am not sure if anyone else will be acknowledging this.
     So I suggest you 'save' the link above and check that page for current seismic activity yourself.  The page itself self-refreshes every five minute.  I also suggest you check out this link, which lists and maps lesser quakes as well...like the volleys of small ones that hit California on a regular basis.  Here it is: http://earthquake.usgs.gov/earthquakes/recenteqsww/Quakes/quakes_all.php
     For persons of faith and for those who doubt or disbelieve, here is some information that you should bear in mind for future reference:
"10Then he said to them: "Nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. 11There will be great earthquakes, famines and pestilences in various places, and fearful events and great signs from heaven." Jesus speaking in Luke 21:10-11  (NIV)
     And then shortly thereafter, Jesus continues:
"25"There will be signs in the sun, moon and stars. On the earth, nations will be in anguish and perplexity at the roaring and tossing of the sea. 26Men will faint from terror, apprehensive of what is coming on the world, for the heavenly bodies will be shaken. 27At that time they will see the Son of Man coming in a cloud with power and great glory. 28When these things begin to take place, stand up and lift up your heads, because your redemption is drawing near." Luke 21:25-28 (NIV)
     Of interest to some, a curiosity to others, total foolishness to many and absolute faith to believers, I recommend that you read all of Luke 21.
LINK: http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Luke+21&version=NIV
     And you might want to also check out Matthew 24, which covers much of the same:

     Provided for you for your 'Emergency Preparedness' and so that you know.
With Love in Christ,

"Please Join Me In Prayer For Those In Flood-Ravaged Pakistan" By Reverend Barbara Sexton www.DearOnesHealingMinistry.blogspot.com

http://www.watton.org/

Dear Ones:

Please join me right now in prayer for Pakistanis displaced and suffering from floods this moment:

Dear God:

We come to you now to ask that You show your mercy to the people of Pakistan who are helpless victims of a natural disaster.

Lord, help all of us in our individual and collective 'spiritual journeys' to come together in compassion, at this time, for a people whose suffering is too much to bear.

America has been 'asked for help' by a 'sometimes enemy'.  Indeed, Pakistan has asked us for Chinooks and for other assistance at this desperate time. 

Help us to be gracious, O Lord and answer that call.  Help us to extend our mercy as You would have us do.

Help us to expect absolutely nothing in return.  May the knowledge of having done the right thing, at the right time.... thanks to a Wisdom and Guidance so much greater than ourselves...be sufficient.

We pray these things in the ways of our individual traditions and together as a family of humankind.

AMEN

It is easy to be kind to those who are kind to you.  Here we have an opportunity to 'forever forget' that. 
God Bless You for joining me just now in this prayer.
With Love in Christ,
Reverend Barbara Sexton

"Happy Peruvian Independence Day From Hillary & Rev. Barb" By Rev. Barbara Sexton www.DearOnesHealingMinistry.blogspot.com

http://modernhistorian.blogspot.com/2008/07/on-this-day-in-history-peruvian.html

Dear Ones:

Please join me in prayer for the people of Peru:

O God, you are our Lord over all the earth and over all it's peoples and this day we ask that you especially bless the people and lands of Peru. 

We pray that you keep them from harm, whether 'natural' or man-made. 

We pray that a spirit of unity, cooperation and warmth pervade dealings between Peru and the countries with which she has a foundation of true friendship.

We pray that Peru and the people of the United States live in peace and harmony in every way and at all times with mutual respect and reciprocity between our two countries.

We pray for a 'welcome in safety' when Peruvians visit the U.S. and when those from the U.S. visit Peru.

We pray also for the leaders of Peru, that they may be wise and have the resources to complete their roles successfully.

We pray that the things we pray for Peru this day are granted to all the lands of the earth and that they, too, someday learn to trust and live in love.

We pray these things in the spirit of our individual faith traditions--

AMEN

Washington, DC
July 27, 2010
On behalf of President Obama and the people of the United States, I congratulate the people of Peru as you celebrate the 189th anniversary of your independence this July 28. The warmth and vitality of the Peruvian people is fresh in my mind following my first visit to your beautiful country earlier this summer. Peru has made great progress in recent years to improve economic inclusion, reduce poverty, and expand opportunity to more people in more places. Whether you spend the day listening to President Garcia's Independence Day address, attending a traditional fair, or simply celebrating with family and friends, I hope all Peruvians take a moment to reflect with pride on your achievements.


The United States and Peru continue to be close friends and partners, both in the region and around the world. Our relationship is rooted in our shared respect for democratic governance, our commitment to free trade and open markets, and our vigorous defense of individual rights and civil liberties. Peru's development over the last decade confirms for the region and the world that dedication to these ideals remains the surest path to stability and economic growth.


I wish all Peruvians a peaceful and happy Independence Day celebration. We look forward to continuing the strong partnership between our nations as we strive to create a more inclusive and more prosperous future for our world.

"He that justifieth the wicked, and he that condemneth the just, even they both are abomination to the LORD."

(King James Version)
"One who justifies the wicked and one who condemns the righteous are both alike an abomination to the LORD."

'CALLING ALL AGNOSTICS/ATHEISTS/SPIRITUAL SEEKERS Re: A Forgiveness We Cannot Fathom' By Reverend Barbara Sexton "The Biblical Biochemist-Where Science Meets the Cross"

Christian MySpace Graphics
     How good it is to Christian believers to know that God has a forgiveness so 'complete' that it includes that which we can't ever completely understand!  Witness this exchange between Jesus and the men on each side of him:
"39One of the criminals who hung there hurled insults at him: "Aren't you the Christ? Save yourself and us!"

40But the other criminal rebuked him. "Don't you fear God," he said, "since you are under the same sentence? 41We are punished justly, for we are getting what our deeds deserve. But this man has done nothing wrong."
42Then he said, "Jesus, remember me when you come into your kingdom.[f]"
43Jesus answered him, "I tell you the truth, today you will be with me in paradise."
                                                                                            Luke 23:39-43 (NIV)
LINK: http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Luke+23&version=NIV
     What do you think is the 'story' of this 'suddenly forgiven' criminal?  It is the fact that he accepted Christ as the Lord that he was 'saved' at the last minute. 
     And God's forgiveness goes beyond even this.  We are told in Scripture that God so thoroughly 'forgives our sins' that He is actually able to 'not remember them'!  You can read this in a book of the New Testament written especially for 'Jewish Believers', in Hebrews 8:1-13 (NIV)
GOD says: "11No longer will a man teach his neighbor, or a man his brother, saying, 'Know the Lord,' because they will all know me, from the least of them to the greatest. 12For I will forgive their wickedness and will remember their sins no more."    Hebrews 8:11-12 (NIV)
LINK: http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Hebrews+8&version=NIV
Christian MySpace Graphics     Not 'remembering' our sins is an even BIGGER mystery for Christian believers to contemplate.  Who among us is 'good enough' to do this?  Fair few, I reckon...and that's why we need to call upon the Holy Spirit indwelling in each of us to get done what we alone, as human beings, simply cannot do.
     I am not saying that there is no such thing as 'unpardonable sin' (that is, attributing to Satan the works of the Holy Spirit) and that everyone can get a 'free pass' one way or another.  But only the Lord Himself--with or without the intervention of either an angel or a human prophet--can make a call like that.  For myself, I would be extremely hesitant to broach the subject unless I had 'direct orders', so to speak. 
     There's no second-guessing the Lord on matters of judgement and religious leaders who do so--well let's just say that they and only they will be judged for their words and actions and their influence on others.
Christian MySpace Graphics
    So be wary, dear ones, of any religious leaders who declare either wholesale condemnation or wholesale forgiveness.  That is like saying that one completely knows the mind of God, and that is just not  impossible unless one has received some very direct orders. 
     I pray what I've written here gives you all--Christian believers, spiritual seekers, agnostics and atheists--cause for reflection and reconsideration of some very important things in this day and age.  There's a 'New Covenant' a-coming these days....to be 'completed' in God's good time.  The Bible outlines the gameplan and gives us plenty of hints and warnings of events that look strangely similar to events in the news today.
     If current events in any way prompt you to reconsider things you have previously cast aside (like believing in a Creator and/or believing in the writings of the Bible), this just might be a good time to take a second look.  What can it hurt? 
     But if you belong to the 'these things happen all the time' brigade, you'll likely think this is all nonsense and will just keep on keeping on with whatever you're doing anyway.  No matter-Scripture has you covered to, so that believers can understand you better and be there to help you in the event...you know.
      I will pray that if you are reading this, you will listen to that 'small, still, BOOMING voice' inside you mind, heart, body and soul when 'it' speaks to you.
      Please, oh please, do pay attention to it!
God Bless & Keep You even those of you who don't believe in Him just yet  : )

'Why D.C. Area Had An Earthquake & Predicting What's To Come: A Tutorial' By Reverend Barbara Sexton "The Biblical Biochemist-Where Science Meets the Cross"

http://science.nasa.gov/science-news/science-at-nasa/2010/16jul_ilws/

Dear Ones:
     It is said that 'with hindsight, EVERYONE is brilliant'.  But I've been writing these Tutorials for a while now, correlating 'space weather' with what's happening here on terra firma...meaning 'earth'.  It's good to know that the international scientific community is now officially 'taking note' also and you can check it out by checking out the NASA link above.
     Some are surprised by this earthquake.  President Obama's foolish 'taunting' about the 'earth not moving under his feet' or something to that effect after the passing of the abyssmal 'Health Care Deform (sic!) Bill' ASIDE...this earthquake is not at all unexpected for those of us who study space weather.
     I'd like to explain a few things to you in an easy-to-understand manner pertaining to this D.C/MD area shaker.  For additional Tutorials like this, just look at my index on the right side of the page, but here are the salient points for now.  If you'd like to play 'amateur astro/solar physicist', just 'collect and monitor' the links I provide you with here.
     First, we have an earthquake map, below.

http://earthquake.usgs.gov/earthquakes/recenteqsww/Maps/10/285_40.php

     We see that the Washington, D.C. area was recently hit with a rogue 'quake' of magnitude 3.6 (see map above--the little 'blue square' )  The epicenter was in Maryland and the specifics per the USGS are:
MAP 3.6 2010/07/16 09:04:47 39.167 -77.252 5.0 POTOMAC-SHENANDOAH REGION
(map mag   date            time         lat          lon                   region)
LINK: http://earthquake.usgs.gov/earthquakes/recenteqsww/Quakes/quakes_all.php
     Long time readers here know that the USGS is the United States Geological Service.  As in my Tutorials, I've lined out how clearly 'SPACE Weather' is correlated with events on earth, including earthquakes, volcanic eruption, severe weather, and so forth.  
     So let's look at the 'weather picture' just prior to this Gaithersburg, MD earthquake.  Here is the Kp index graph which reflects energy hitting the earth from the sun.  Please note that there is a slight 'delay' (anywhere from 2-4 days, generally, if that) between the time the sun throws off it's energy and the time it hits earth and affects something or other.

http://www.swpc.noaa.gov/rt_plots/kp_3d.html

Next, let's look at the 'solar wind' graph which is reflective of the force with which energy from the sun is being 'thrown off':

http://umtof.umd.edu/pm/latest2day.gif

http://umtof.umd.edu/pm/latest2day.gif

Next, let us take a look at recent 'warnings and alerts' about space weather:

http://www.swpc.noaa.gov/alerts/warnings_timeline.html

     Finally, you can see all sorts of beautiful photos of 'solar flares' if you'd like to witness the beauty of the sun's energy being thrown off.  Those of you in Northern areas will see 'Auroras', which in the field are quantified by numbers <1-10 and are described in terms of 'Auroral Oval Input Power'.  This refers to the 'oval' of solar energy over and in the earth's atmosphere.  More solar flares=more auroras=more solar energy in the form of x-rays, electrons, protons, radio waves, etc hitting and affecting earth.

     Here's another some good link for you:

http://www.swpc.noaa.gov/pmap/index.html

    One last note, my dear readers.  I really don't 'need' to know all this science and make predictions, for I read and believe the Bible which says:

"4Jesus answered: "Watch out that no one deceives you. 5For many will come in my name, claiming, 'I am the Christ,[a]' and will deceive many. 6You will hear of wars and rumors of wars, but see to it that you are not alarmed. Such things must happen, but the end is still to come. 7Nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. There will be famines and earthquakes in various places. 8All these are the beginning of birth pains."  Matthew 24:4-8

     And Scripture says there will be 'pestilences', too.  But I know that many of you are agnostics/atheists and I can relate to that, for I was one, too, for the first 37 years of my life.  I understand 'believing only in science'...but at this point I am content to trust in God, so I don't get too wound up about things.

     Still..the 'scientist' in me can't resist reviewing and analyzing 'data', but that's just me.  While I never pretend to be able to 'predict' the will of God for all of us on earth, I can't help but marvel at the wonderment of His universe and at the miracle that is 'us'.

     If only we listen to that 'small, still BOOMING VOICE' in our hearts, minds and souls, we should do alright.

God Bless you all and may you be granted wisdom!

With Love in Christ,

Reverend Barbara Sexton

UCC:Don't Call Me 'SNOWFLAKE'--A Conversation On Race & The Separation of Church & State In America Today By Reverend Barbara Sexton By Reverend Barbara Sexton "The Biblical Biochemist-Where Science Meets the Cross"

UCC: DON'T CALL ME 'SNOWFLAKE'!

A Conversation On Race And The Separation of Church & State In America Today

By Reverend Barbara Sexton

"The Biblical Biochemist-Where Science Meets the Cross"

ABOVE:  Synod June 2007 UCC Where Then Senator Obama either did or did not gave his first presidential campaign speech..depending upon who you are speaking to.

You can read Presidential Candidate Obama's Synod 2007 speech here and judge for yourself if this is electioneering or not: http://www.ucc.org/news/significant-speeches/a-politics-of-conscience.html  (Note: If this link suddenly 'evaporates', just email me: BarbaraKSexton@aol.com )

From Rev. Barb:

UPDATE: http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2012/02/12/samuel-l-jackson-obama-vote-black_n_1271797.html

Are you SICK & TIRED of the 'STATUS QUO'?
Are you FINISHED BELIEVING & TRUSTING THE PHONIES 'IN POWER' TODAY?
Are you READY TO TAKE BACK YOUR COUNTRY?
Are you READY FOR A CHANGE YOU CAN REALLY BELIEVE IN?
Are you READY TO BRING AMERICA BACK TO BEING THE 'STAR' IT CAN BE?
GOOD! THEN JOIN THE TEA PARTY MOVEMENT & MAKE YOURSELF HEARD: YOUR LIFE, YOUR COUNTRY, YOUR KIDS' WELL-BEING & YOURS DEPEND UPON IT.
Or Sit Back...and suffer for it.
I wish I could keep 'RELIGION' out of this discussion, but I can't.
So...to you Atheists, Agnostics and Other Spiritual Seekers Out There, I MUST WARN YOU:
STAY OUT OF POLITICALLY ACTIVE CHURCHES LIKE THE UCC AKA THE WRIGHT/OBAMA CHURCH!
STAND UP FOR YOUR FREEDOMS AND LIBERTY AND BY SO DOING YOU WILL BE PROTECTING THOSE OF OTHERS, AS WELL! 
YOU CAN PREVAIL--JUST DO IT OUTSIDE OF CHURCH.  KEEP READING & YOU WILL KNOW WHY.  YOU WILL SEE THAT I KNOW WHAT I'M TALKING ABOUT!
JOIN THE TEA PARTY PATRIOTS & DEFEAT AND 'DISEMPOWER' THOSE WHO WOULD SEE 'THOSE NOT LIKE THEM' FAIL!
The Choice is Yours.  Make it TODAY! Maybe the TEA PARTY is for you, too!
Friends-See what interests you  and get involved!  The election season is soon upon us and if you don't want to have the 'Progressive Libs' jam their 'Camp Runamuck' politics down our throats, we ALL must do something. 
Actually... a 'Camp Runamuck' metaphor TRIVIALIZES what is going on in America today and those of you who are NOT enchanted with the current regime know EXACTLY what I mean.
Whatever is holding you back from getting politically active, whether by joining the TEA PARTY or NOT....lose it!  But for Heaven's sake let's all join together to see if we can get our country BACK and REPAIR THE RACIAL DIVIDE that grows each day in our country. 

"This is a case where first the festering wound must be lanced, the pus expressed, the cavity cleansed and then lovingly attended so that healing can occur.  I believe it is possible to repair the damage done here."-Rev. Barb

Remember, I am a 'late-comer' to Christianity at age 37 and have had experiences with all types of churches and other religious 'groups'.  BE CAREFUL WITH THE ONES WHO ARE VERY POLITICALLY ACTIVE.

I have the 'dubious distinction' of being a member of the OBAMA/WRIGHT CHURCH, the UCC (United Church of Christ).  Silent no more, I know what I'm talking about!
I watched President Obama kick off his Presidential Campaign at Synod 2007 in Hartford, CT which I attended as a delegate at the request of my 'home church' in Stamford.
I witnessed the 'separation between church and state' be crossed time and time again.  No one seems to know or care about this.

___________________________________________________________________
I was subjected to the worst forms of 'politiciking from the pulpit' of my own church and I got SICK of it!  
 I've learned about the dirty 'politicking' of the OTHER SIDE and NOW it is time for ME TO  APPLY WHAT I'VE WITNESSED, EXPERIENCED and LEARNED AT THE OBAMA/WRIGHT CHURCH AND GET ACTIVE MYSELF. 
"The leech has two daughters.  'Give! Give!' they cry"
                                                   Proverbs 30:15 (NIV)
DO THEY EVER...all over the U.S.A. and around the world.  Anti-freedom, anti-American, racist groups festering their politics of hate IN CHURCH AND IN SECRET.  Churches are BIG MONEY and that means POWER and POLITICAL INLUENCE.  Worse yet, 'Progressive-Lib' churches maintain a 'holier than thou' mentality which seeks to CENSOR and BRING DOWN those who DARE to disagree with their politicks!  THEY PREY UPON UNWITTING ATHEIST/AGNOSTIC SPIRITUAL SEEKER TYPES, ENSNARING THEM WITH ALL SORTS OF 'PROMISES' WITH THEIR CORRUPT THEOLOGIES TO SUIT THEIR OWN PURPOSES.  What kind of 'thinking person' falls for that?  WAIT!  I was 'duped myself' for 20 years!

"A time is coming, dear ones, when it will be impossible to ignore the 'reality' of God.  There will be signs and wonders to shake even the most faithful of us.  This is the time for those who don't believe, who doubt and/or for those who pervert the church for politics, money, sex and power to get 'real'.  GOD WILL NOT BE MOCKED FOREVER."--Rev. Barb

ANY 'RELIGIOUS LEADER WHO ESPOUSES A 'GOD DAMN AMERICA' PHILOSOPHY FROM THE PULPIT' IS ONE YOU SHOULD RUN FROM, I DON'T CARE WHAT YOUR COLOR IS!  Please...at this time in history, do not gamble with your mortal soul for the sake of popularity at a church or at the ballot box.
When you stand in judgment in front of God, your 'claimed ignorance' will be NO EXCUSE and neither will ANY 'HOLIER THAN THOU' attitude.  We each will be held accountable for what we do or don't do and for what we say or don't say, which is WHY I AM WRITING THIS.
WHAT I SPEAK OF HERE IS NOT 'RELIGION', anyway, really.  It is a pseudo-set of beliefs answering only to the gods of 'greed, gluttony and sexual appetite'--the 2010 version of 'if it feels good, do it'.  It's the 'easy-peezey, lemon-squeezey' 'POP RELIGION' that seduces the vain and corrupts the weak. 
DON'T FALL FOR IT; YOU'RE SMARTER THAN THAT!  And I am TOO...now.

 The CONCEPT OF 'A WORLD UNIVERSAL RELIGION' IS A MYTH.  Just look at the headlines today and witness all the hatred perpetrated in the name of and BY 'religion'.  In the end, corrupt pseudo-religions exist and merely SEEK TO SILENCE those who disagree with them.  Modern-style religions in America today are a 'front' for political objectives. 
You atheists, agnostics and spiritual seekers would do well to STAY AWAY from any church whose main 'lure for you' is POLITICAL ADVANTAGE.  I can't emphasize this enough.
 Are you brave enough to join me and work to reinstate the separation of 'church and state'...even as you seek a church 'home'?  If so, you've a massive task ahead of you,
There is a socio-political 'movement' afoot in some churches and other houses of worship which literally seeks to undermine the U.S.A. and all it's has always stood for.  I've witnessed this first-hand and if you don't believe it, may God have mercy on your soul.  Better yet, I pray that all true 'believers' see the truth and be saved...even all atheists, agnostics, doubters and 'spiritual seekers' who are close to 'seeing the Light'.  I especially pray for Israel who is directly at risk in this breed of 'progressive-lib politically-fixated churches' such as the UCC.
 America is a fine nation in need of healing...MAJOR healing.  Let us get together and HEAL that which the progressive-libs have brought forth.  Won't you help?
RACIST ANTI-AMERICAN LANGUAGE DOESN'T HELP ANYONE.  I HEARD WHAT YOU CALLED ME WHEN YOU THOUGHT I WASN'T LISTENING. 
I AM NOT YOUR 'BLONDIE', 'WHITE RICE', 'SNOWFLAKE', BARBIE' OR 'CRACKER'.

"Here is something we all need to know.  We are called 'cracker' not because some of us are 'white like a cracker', but because we are being likened to slave owners who 'cracked the whip' over the backs of their long-suffering slaves.  Reject this rhetoric for the racist language that it is and refuse to reciprocate in kind and you will be blessed."--Rev. Barb

"NOT GOD DAMN AMERICA, ", as UCC Reverend Jeremiah Wright says.  I SAY, "GOD BLESS AMERICA".
Like the old Gospel song says:
'In Christ there is no east or west, in Him no north or south,
But one great fellowship of love, throughout the whole wide earth.'
May it be so!
