Dear Ones: Read this and better understand what is happening in our world today.  It's not a mystery...it's a promise.  Fear not, those who are close to the Lord.  With love in Christ, Reverend Barbara Sexton

Psalm 46 (New International Version)

For the director of music. Of the Sons of Korah. According to Alamoth. A song. [a]
1 God is our refuge and strength,
an ever-present help in trouble.
2 Therefore we will not fear, though the earth give way
and the mountains fall into the heart of the sea,
3 though its waters roar and foam
and the mountains quake with their surging.
Selah
4 There is a river whose streams make glad the city of God,
the holy place where the Most High dwells.
5 God is within her, she will not fall;
God will help her at break of day.
6 Nations are in uproar, kingdoms fall;
he lifts his voice, the earth melts.
7 The LORD Almighty is with us;
the God of Jacob is our fortress.
Selah
8 Come and see the works of the LORD,
the desolations he has brought on the earth.
9 He makes wars cease to the ends of the earth;
he breaks the bow and shatters the spear,
he burns the shields [b] with fire.
10 "Be still, and know that I am God;
I will be exalted among the nations,
I will be exalted in the earth."
11 The LORD Almighty is with us;
the God of Jacob is our fortress.
Selah  Psalm 46 (NIV)

SALMONELLA IS NOT THE SPICE OF LIFE: WHOLESOME SPICE OF BROOKLYN RED PEPPER RECALL BY REV. BARB SEXTON FEB 27, 2010

Dear Readers:
     SALMONELLA IS NOT THE SPICE OF LIFE!!!!!!!!!!!! Once, again, I am alerting you to a 'bulk' recall of a Salmonella-contaminated product--crushed Red Pepper by a company named, of all things 'WHOLESOME SPICE OF BROOKLYN'
     Now am I the only one who THINKS this is FUNNY (the company name, that is)?  Maybe I'm just being OVERLY SENSITIVE to the very serious ubiquitous Salmonella contamination of our foodstuffs I learn about every day.
     In any case, please do take care.  If you do eat out and get ill after obvious use of restaurant red pepper or if you buy spicy in-store prepared food, take note!  Scroll down my blog page any time for a list of links, including that of the FDA who recalls these items.
God Bless & Keep you,
Reverend Barbara Sexton

Link: http://www.fda.gov/Safety/Recalls/ucm202113.htm
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE - February 25, 2010 - Brooklyn, NY - Wholesome Spice of Brooklyn, NY is recalling all lots of 25 lb boxes of Crushed Red Pepper sold between 4/6/09 and 1/20/10, because they have the potential to be contaminated with Salmonella, an organism which can cause serious and sometimes fatal infections in young children, frail or elderly people, and others with weakened immune systems. Healthy persons infected with Salmonella often experience fever, diarrhea (which may be bloody), nausea, vomiting and abdominal pain. In rare circumstances, infection with Salmonella can result in the organism getting into the bloodstream and producing more severe illnesses such as arterial infections (i.e., infected aneurysms), endocarditis and arthritis.
The 25 lb boxes of Crushed Red pepper were distributed in the Northeastern U.S.. The product was not sold on the retail level to consumers.
The Crushed Red Pepper product is packaged in a clear plastic bag which is placed inside of a cardboard box with an adhesive white label with a blue border and blue and black lettering. The brand name on the product labels is WHOLESOME SPICES. The product name is listed as CRUSHED RED PEPPER.
It cannot be determined at this time if this product has been related to any illnesses to date.
The firm was informed that samples of its product have tested positive for Salmonella. The firm is currently working with the FDA to determine how the contamination occurred.
Manufacturers who have purchased 25 lb boxes of WHOLESOME SPICES brand Crushed Red Pepper are urged not to use the product and to recall any product they further distributed. Manufacturers with questions may contact the firm via telephone at (718) 388-1549. Our hours of operation are from Monday to Friday 8:30-4:30pm Eastern Standard Time.

COME ON, Trader Joe's.  It's time to get your ACT TOGETHER with this Salmonella contamination!   You're making my HEAD SPIN! The worst I've ever 'gotten' from one of your stores way-back-when when I was 'trying you out'...was just some really, really STALE PRODUCTS.  It's time for you to get a handle on your products if you want to stay in business.  How ironic that you are considered by some to be a 'health food store'.  I would BEG TO DIFFER and worry that some of my family actually do shop there.  Dear ones--use your common sense on this one and check http://www.fda.gov/ on a regular basis for TRADER JOE'S RECALLS.

8.8 CHILE EARTHQUAKE INFO FROM REVEREND BARB SEXTON "THE BIBLICAL BIOCHEMIST-WHERE SCIENCE MEETS THE CROSS"

from: http://www.iris.edu/seismon/

Dear Ones:  Above is a map of the recent earthquakes in Chile.  The large 8.8 magnitude quake is only the first of many to subsequently hit that region and there will be more.  In addition, there are tsunami warnings from this Chile quake (coming on the heels of yesterday's earthquake in Japan).  This is no time for anyone near water and/or known quake zones to let down their guard.

    Please, no matter what 'the authorities' tell you about danger and risk of same in your particular regions...It is a good idea to check the seismological maps I've linked you with yourself.  You can also check in here and I will give you my take on things in the world disaster-wise.  There is a search box on the top of my blog http://www.dearoneshealingministry.blogspot.com/

Please pray for the Chilean peoples: Dear Heavenly Father: May those who call on you be heartened and strengthened even in the worst of scenarios.  Lord God, protect their hearts and souls from fear, if not from danger, as you see fit for all of us.  Do not forget your peoples all over the earth.  We wait for the return of our Savior and are content in that, no matter what.  Thank you, God, for every good thing.  We pray this in the Name of the Father, The Son & The Holy Spirit.

AMEN.

DEAR ONES HEALING MINISTRY FOLLOW-UP TO MY FEB 20, 2010 POCKET SERMON 10: "A SOLAR EVENT TUTORIAL-NOAA 11049 FROM ALPHA TO OMEGA" By REVEREND BARBARA SEXTON FEB 26, 2010

from: http://www.iris.edu/seismon/

Dear Ones:

     Check this link: http://www.iris.edu/seismon/ for real-time, updating views of recent earthquakes and 'aftershocks'.  The activity today is the result of solar discharge of energy towards earth over the last weeks.  Of course, earth-bound factors are in play, also, though I don't know to what extent.

     My thesis is and has been that solar energy in the form of x-rays, electrons, protons, plasma, etc. is causing all our recent earthquakes.

  

Above is an image of solar events today, 2/26/10 (7.0 Japan EQ)

Above is the same type of image from 2/12/10...14 days ago... 

 

Above is the same type of image from 2/8/10...18 days ago...

Can you guess where some of this solar energy is directed?  Yes, towards earth. 
     If you are curious as to how solar energy manifests on earth as earthquakes and other 'natural disasters', please see my Tutorial: POCKET SERMON 10: "A SOLAR EVENT TUTORIAL-NOAA 11049 FROM ALPHA TO OMEGA"

http://dearoneshealingministry.blogspot.com/2010/02/pocket-sermon-10-solar-event-tutorial.html  from 2/20/10...6 days ago...
     We're now monitoring solar areas 11050 and 11051 and 11048.  What do you suppose happened to all the solar energy discharged towards earth from the solar area 11049 I referred to in my POCKET SERMON 10?  (Hint: Read the Japan Earthquake & Tsunami news today and for the next week.)
GIVEN TO YOU WITH LOVE FOR CHRIST,
Reverend Barb Sexton

TIMOTHY JOSEPH MONTAGUE MARCH OF DIMES MARCH FOR BABIES APRIL 25, 2010 IN STAMFORD By REVEREND BARBARA SEXTON www.DearOnesHealingMinistry.blogspot.com

Timothy Joseph Montague

Dear Ones:  Here's an email I received from my daughter Jen about her friend Tracey's efforts.  Too often, naturally lost babies are considered to be some sort of 'blessing in disguise'.  Saying this to a grieving parents who do not believe and feel that is, in fact, cruel. 
     This is especially so when a pregnancy is well along.  I never have understood what 'blessing in disguise' means, since all babies, full-term or not, healthy or not, special needs or not, are treasures.  But nothing in life is straightforward and  for all parents everywhere, I am confident in saying  that God will give us all the answers we need in His good time.  But even as I say this, I realize that for those who have lost children, words utterly fail and faith alone sustains us.  
     The fact is that the parents already KNOW something went wrong and telling them the obvious is often more for the benefit of the 'consoler' than for the parents. What parents who have lost a child need is compassion and understanding.  These parents need to be surrounded by people who care and acknowledge their right to grieve.  Most of all, grieving parents need loved ones who actually support and actively participate in their grieving.  Anyone with a heart understands what I am saying here.
     I realize the 'gist' of what I propose are not embraced by everyone.  Many people don't even consider an embryo or a fetus to be alive, let alone a person.  Some day they will learn otherwise, whether or not it's 'too late' for them to get right with the Lord.   But for those who do understand, here's a very real way to help God's Precious Children, by supporting this March of Dimes, March for Babies, if you are able to.
     One need not be a parent to understand here; one only need care about others and especially our 'littlest and helpless' ones.  Prayers are most precious of all and I ask for those for little Timothy, in Heaven now...back with Jesus....and for Tim's parents, Tim and Tracey and their families and friends.
Thank you and God Bless you.
With Love in Christ,
Reverend Barbara Sexton-"The Biblical Biochemist-Where Science Meets the Cross"

H1N1 SWINE FLU UPDATE--NO NEWS IS GOOD NEWS FOR NOW BY REV BARBARA SEXTON "The Biblical Biochemist-Where Science Meets the Cross" Feb 23, 2010

courtesy http://www.wittnessed.com/

Dear Ones:

     Per the CDC: "During the week of February 7 – February 13, 2010, most key flu indicators remained about the same as during the previous week."  Check it out here: http://www.cdc.gov/h1n1flu/update.htm 

     There are yet some weeks to go before we are 'out of the Flu season', so it is still recommended that the standard hygiene practices we've been following are continued by all.  If anything 'unique' pops up, I will alert you.  But for now I am very grateful that our Pandemic was not as bad as it could have been,

     Even so, I grieve and pray  for all those who lost a loved one and for those whose quality of life has been compromised by a bout with the 2009 H1N1 Influenza virus. 

     It is a profound truth that the tiniest bits of God's Creation--viral particles, miniscule pieces of nuclear material in a protein coat--can wreck such havoc in human beings. 

     That's it for now on this subject, Praise God!

In Christ,

Rev Barb

Obamacare 2.0

  Tuesday, February 23, 2010

I do not understand why President Obama would release his own healthcare reform proposal four days before the bipartisan healthcare summit. President Obama's plan would cost over 1 trillion dollars and last for ten years. His new plan does not include the public option, but it does create unnecessary taxes and increase the size of the federal government. Obama's plan is a brief summary of his healthcare reform goals, it is so vague that the nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office cannot give an estimate of the bill's price tag. CBO Director Douglas Elmendorf said, "Preparing a cost estimate requires very detailed specifications of numerous provisions and the materials that were released this morning do not provide sufficient detail on all of the provisions." Are you kidding me? Just like the House and Senate versions, Obama's plan would unconstitutionally mandate every legal citizen in the entire country to purchase their own health insurance. Another big problem I have with Obama's healthcare reform plan is that it does not include the Stupack Amendment. By not including the specific language to deny taxpayer funded abortions, he is actually allowing tax dollars to be used to fund health plans that cover abortions. This plan also includes 11 billion dollars for "community health centers" or in plain English - Planned Parenthood centers. President Obama's healthcare reform legislation is probably the worst bill yet. Instead of starting the healthcare reform process with a bipartisan healthcare summit, Obama is trying to finish the healthcare reform process with a bipartisan healthcare summit. He wants to throw in a few Republican amendments at Thursday's healthcare summit, so he can call it bipartisanship. The problem lies in philosophy, Obama wants to achieve healthcare reform by increasing the size and power of the Federal Government, so he can give free healthcare to all American citizens. In a 'perfect world' that would be great, but here in America there are way too many lazy people looking for free handouts from the Federal Government. The Republicans want to achieve healthcare reform by making healthcare insurance more affordable to all American citizens. They would use free market principles to make it easier to purchase your own health insurance across state lines, increase incentives for people to use health saving accounts, cap medical malpractice tort lawsuits at $250,000 and allow business to pool their money to purchase group insurance plans. In my opinion, the Republicans cannot settle for anything less than scraping everything and starting allover. There is no bipartisan solution to merging the 3 most partisan bills in American history.  Link below:

DEATH TO WHITE GUILT: REV MARTIN LUTHER KING'S PLAGIARISM IS ALL RACIAL By Reverend Barbara Sexton

     Today was an interesting day.  All I did was post a few links on Twitter and now everyone is all up-in-arms and I wonder why?  What I Twittered is well-known information....or so I thought.  The only thing that really surprises me is that EVERYONE, WHITE AND BLACK, IGNORES THE OBVIOUS.
     You can draw your own conclusions.  Personally, I think King's plagiarism is demeaning and 'dumbs down' persons struggling to do hard work and get degrees in 'academia'. 
     Anyone who lies and must plagiarize other peoples' work, is a FRAUD, period and I don't care HOW famous that  person may be.  What kind of lesson is this for our children?  It's 'okay' (wink-wink) if you have political protections and can induce enough 'WHITE GUILT' to 'git it done'?"  This philosophy is NOT for me and mine.  I worked and slaved and earned my degrees and I expect the same from everyone else.
     We are all sinners and that includes me.  It would be very THERAPEUTIC for all of those who worship The Reverend "Dr" Martin Luther King to get REAL about the man.  Not only is his doctoral degree a FAKE, but I see in these recent years that MLK's "not wanting to judge people by the color of their skin, but by the content of their character" is TOTALLY IGNORED by the obviously racist groups MLK provides fodder for.  We can do better than this.  Future generations will laugh at persons of color for making dieties of MLK and Michael Jackson.  The house that one builds is only as 'good as it's foundation", after all.
     People can do better than this idol worship.  But first they must acknowledge that we are all sinners.  And we must hold ourselves to the highest standards of all if we are to criticize others.
     Plagiarism is a form of lying that becomes abominable when it's searing dishonesty oozes into all facets of society and effects socio-religious change.  I've seen this ad nauseum at the United Church of Christ with it's Trinity Chicago and Rev Jeremiah Wright, Rev Otis Moss and--for the 'white guilt contingency' Father Pfleger.  Lying and plagiarism causes 'thoughtforms' to takes on a life of their own and then they are perpetuated by the weak and unknowing and become insidious.
     I say 'DEATH TO DECEPTION FOR ALL'....never happen, I know, but a girl can pray for it.
     Yep-society 'celebrates' Rev Martin Luther King, especially during Feb, Black History Month.      
     That's America in the New Age buying up the old lines and the same lies.  Check out my Twitter links below and draw your own conclusions.  "Enlighten me' if you are able to!  I don't see anyone talking about any of this and all I do is wonder....'why'?  From where I stand, it's all racial.
In Love, Faith & Hope,
The Reverend Barbara Sexton

NEW VFW PROGRAM TO ASSIST MARINES Posted By Rev Barbara Sexton Feb 22, 2010

courtesy of Doug Kidd "All Marine all the time" http://www.leatherneck.com/

YES!

     I've never been known to 'let go of something' that needs to get done.  Like I tell the kids, "If you believe in something, you fight your heart out!" 

     The following announcement by the VFW (Veterans of Foreign Wars for those of you who do not know or care about such things), is EXACTLY what I've been talking about recently.  It's time to stand UP to the indifference, duplicity, ignorance and ungratefulness of those living in America and 'suckling on the teat' of this Land of Plenty while playing politics.  

     Those with a 'sense of entitlement' ought to be ashamed of themselves, but they're not.  Their positions of power and wealth render them impervious to pleas such as mine.  The power-brokers in D.C., the liberals, the progressives, the Democrats and those from ACORN and other 'corrupt' organizations need a big time reality check.  Their callous indifference to our Warriors'  is heinous, especially in these times. 

     How out of touch are they?  Do they not realize that America has as any enemies within it's borders as we have without?  I dare them to read this VFW article and prove me wrong about their selfish indifference.  Let them enlighten me on this one.  BarbaraKSexton@aol.com

     My only complaint about the article below is that THERE IS  NO SUCH THING AS A FORMER MARINE.  THEY ARE ONLY RETIRED! I know because I am married to a RETIRED Tank Commander who still does a 'military tuck', etc, etc....

      In this day and age of political instability and wars of horrible consequence,  we  would all  do well to be grateful that "Once a Marine, Always a Marine" is a steadfast tenet of the USMC.  Should the day come, Heaven forbid, that 'all hands are needed' for some cataclysmic event, you can BET that every United States Marine on earth will rally to the war cry at once!

     So, please, dear ones (she says softly now....) take a moment to read this piece and do whatever you can to help.  My brother-in-law does transport to and from V.A. hospitals and other places for his fellow retired Marines.  You can do this, too.  Or donate money, time, spread the word and do whatever you can do to help our Warriors, wounded and not.

      I realize some of you may not have given much attention to those who protect your so-called "civil rights", "human rights" and so forth. And some of you always seem to be the first in line for the hand-outs at taxpayer expense.   But there is a new regime in Washington with President Barak Obama and it's time for all of you, too, to get on board and to get involved as an American citizen, especially if you are one.

       I fully realize that some reading this do not like the military. But, I think differently. Not only am I GRATEFUL that someone is there selflessly defending me and my loved ones....I also have a special soft-spot in my heart for the United States Marine Corps.

      Hey, they finally saw fit to issue my husband a wife.

With tough love,

God Bless you for taking this to heart,

ED HOFFMAN OF THE SIDNEY AMERICAN LEGION 'DARES TO CARE' ABOUT MATTHEW COOKE By REV BARBARA SEXTON DEAR ONES HEALING MINISTRY

american Graphic CommentsDear Ones;

     In these days of 'political correctness', it seems to me that there has been nothing but 'minor chatter' about the Fort Hood shooting aftermath.  Heaven forbid we should 'insult anyone's religion', you know?  But here is an article from The Daily Star about a fundraising dinner.  It restores one's faith that there are still  plenty of people in this country who care.  And they care enough to put their time and energy to work in a very tangible way.
     One question I have, though, is WHERE IS UNCLE IN ALL OF THIS? It is to our shame and dishonor that the government--who seems to be willing to support and enable ALL SORTS of causes --does NOT pledge total life-affirming and enabling SUPPORT for soldiers such as Matthew Cooke? Why can't the V.A. be relied upon in this regard either, I wonder?
     The lack of long-term support for the Fort Hood victims by those who SHOULD HAVE ACTED ON THE INTEL ABOUT MAJOR HASAN WHICH THEY NOW ADMIT THEY HAD is shameful. It will be yet another stain on what was once the Kevlar-like fabric of our great Nation. 
"Acquitting the guilty and condemning the innocent--
the Lord detests them both." Proverbs 17:15 (NIV)
We need to make our voices heard and then put our money and resources where our mouths are if we are to truly stand up for the principals upon which the United States of America was founded.
Below is the newspaper article, followed by a comment there by 'Thru The Spy Glass' who really lines out my sentiments on lack of sufficient government arena assistance in this case.
     Please join me in this prayer: Please,God, bless Matthew Cooke, age 30 and grant him continued healing and improved health.  May you imbue him with undaunted uplifting of spirit in view of the injuries he has received at the hands of evil. And God, please also bless Ed Hoffman of The Sidney American Legion for his kindness, compassion and energy in organizing this benefit.  May Your Grace be with them and sustain them all the days of their lives, these who 'dare to care'.
We pray this in the name of Your Son Jesus,
AMEN.
With TOUGH love,
Reverend Barbara Sexton

More than $13,000 raised for soldier hurt at Fort Hood
February 22, 2010 04:00 am
Staff Report
SIDNEY _ The Sidney American Legion benefit event Saturday raised more than $13,000 for a soldier hurt in a shooting at Fort Hood in Texas.
Matthew Cooke, 30, formerly of the Sidney area, appeared via a Web video connection and spoke with area residents attending the dinner and auction activities at the Legion Hall at 22 Union St., said Edward ``Ed'' Hoffman, the lead organizer of the benefit.
Hoffman said 308 tickets for a roast beef dinner were sold, and businesses and individuals contributed items for silent and live auction. The preliminary tally was $13,224, he said, but some envelopes, checks and donations are still being counted. The Hulse Brothers Band provided country and classic- rock music, he said.
Hoffman, a member of the Sons of the American Legion, said the event and support for Cooke were ``heartwarming'' examples of the care the community has for its soldiers who serve in the U.S. military forces.
Cooke, of Forward Support Company, 20th Battalion, 36th Brigade, was among 30 people injured when Army Maj. Nidal Malik Hasan allegedly opened fire at Fort Hood on Nov. 5. Twelve soldiers and one civilian died, and Hasan faces criminal charges.
Cooke was shot several times, and he has been credited with saving the life of another soldier.
Cooke's father, Carl Cooke of Sidney, said ``it was great'' to see his son via the Web and that he seems to be doing well.
``He's still alive, and I thank the Lord for that,'' Carl Cooke said Sunday night. The community came together, as it did after the flood of 2006, to help someone in need, he said, adding that the effort as ``awesome.''
Cooke, a 1998 graduate of Afton Central School who also attended school in Sidney, joined the Army in 2005 and previously served in the Marines. He had been scheduled to deploy to Afghanistan this year.
