Question: Why are we here today?
Answer: We were told to remember the Sabbath Day to
keep it holy
The 4th Commandment is a part of the
covenant given to us at Mount Sinai in the 3rd month, Sivan
Ex. 20 [8] Remember the Sabbath day, to keep it holy.
[9] Six days shalt thou
labour, and do all thy work:
[10] But the seventh day is
the Sabbath of the LORD thy God: in it thou shalt not do any work, thou, nor
thy son, nor thy daughter, thy manservant, nor thy maidservant, nor thy cattle,
nor thy stranger that is within thy gates:
[11] For in six days the LORD
made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that in them is, and rested the seventh
day: wherefore the LORD blessed the Sabbath day, and hallowed it.

News update
WASHINGTON – President
Barack Obama's "Green Jobs"
Czar" Van Jones quit
Sept. 6th, 2009
-------------
NY's Tax-Funded Ex-Terrorist
By PHIL KERPEN - Last
Updated: 5:09 AM, September 9, 2009
Posted: 2:55 AM, September
9, 2009
VAN Jones resigned as White House green-jobs czar after the public
got a look at his history of radical activism, including his time building the
so-called Apollo Alliance -- a coalition of left-wing interest groups unified
around the green-jobs concept. But another, even more radical Jones (not
related) is leading Apollo's New York state activities.
Jeff Jones was a domestic terrorist in the late '60s and a
fugitive from justice throughout the '70s -- yet now he's a leader of an
influential, taxpayer-funded group.
Jeff Jones was a fugitive from justice for 11 years. His
own account at his Web site says: "As a leader of the Weather Underground,
Jeff evaded an intense FBI manhunt for more than a decade. In 1981, they
finally got him. Twenty special agents battered down the door of the Bronx
apartment where he was living with his wife and four-year-old son."
With Mark Rudd and Bill Ayers, Jones in 1969 co-founded
the radical Weatherman, which orchestrated the violent "Days of Rage"
riots in Chicago, and later undertook an anti-government bombing campaign.
Three of its members died when a bomb they were constructing to attack Fort Dix
accidentally detonated in Greenwich Village.
And Jones is still proud of
his terrorist activities -- saying as recently as 2004: "To this day, we
still, lots of us, including me, still think it was the right thing to try to
do."
Now, Jones is back to
revolutionary organizing -- but with taxpayers footing the bill. He's the
director of the Apollo Alliance's New York affiliate and a consultant to the
national group.
Apollo unifies the three
most powerful elements of the political left -- environmental groups, labor
unions and street organizers like ACORN -- and points them toward a common goal
that enriches all of them under the banner of "green jobs." (Van
Jones was an Apollo board member until he joined the White House staff.)
Senate Majority Leader Harry
Reid recently credited Apollo with helping write the stimulus bill and getting
it passed. Yet the stimulus' "green jobs" provisions funnel federal
tax dollars to unions, green groups and community organizers -- that is, the
organizations that make up Apollo.
Green jobs serve a political
purpose, but not an economic one. The evidence from Spain and elsewhere is
ample -- each green job created destroys more than two other jobs elsewhere in
the economy.
Jeff Jones counts among his
consulting clients (along with Apollo) a half-dozen state and local
environmental groups and the Workforce Development Institute (WDI), a
union-controlled organization ("developed in partnership with the NYS
AFL-CIO," it says) that works with state and local government and
universities.
WDI's mission is to support
union influence on state and local governments. It gets state tax dollars to do
it -- to the tune of $4.8 million in this year's Education, Labor and Family
Assistance budget bill.
WDI is so tightly integrated
with Apollo that it features a full page of Apollo information on its Web site
(wdiny.org), which appears to be the primary Web presence of Apollo's New York
branch. WDI encourages its members and program participants to attend Apollo
Alliance events.
As a consultant to WDI,
Jones is helping write the grant proposals for federal stimulus funds -- funds
authorized in the bill Apollo helped write, presumably ensuring that taxpayer
dollars end up in the hands of groups that share Apollo's political agenda.
Anyone should be entitled to
spend his or her own money on political organizing, but Apollo and WDI are
spending taxpayer dollars to organize a coalition of extreme environmentalists,
labor unions and social-justice street organizers.
That's bad enough in itself,
but to have the effort spearheaded by an unrepentant domestic terrorist is a
true outrage.

Watch - Cass Sunstein
Regulatory
chief: Adult dog more 'rational' than baby
Cass Sunstein strong advocate of emancipating animal
kingdom
Obama's
regulatory chief pushes new 'bill of rights'
Cass Sunstein part of effort to change interpretation
of Constitution by 2020
In the footnotes to a 2002 academic paper for
Harvard University, "The Rights of Animals: A Very
Short Primer," Sunstein expresses his approval of Bentham's arguments:
"I suggest that Bentham and Mill were not
wrong to offer an analogy between current uses of animals and human
slavery," he wrote.
Several other works by Sunstein, including his books, quote
approvingly of Bentham's statements comparing adult dogs and horses to human
infants.
In the Harvard paper, Sunstein even suggests
animals could be granted the right to sue humans in court.
"We could even grant animals a right to
bring suit without insisting that animals are in some general sense 'persons,'
or that they are not property," he wrote.
The Senate today confirmed Sunstein as Obama's
nominee for "regulatory czar," overcoming months of delay due to
Republican concerns that he would push a radical animal-rights agenda.

A short study - What
happened to dinosaurs?
http://www.oneinmessiah.net/DragonsDinosaurs.htm
It was not until 1900’s that the word “dinosaur”
was invented
Sir Richard Owen, 20 July 1804 – 18 December 1892, a famous British anatomist
and first superintendent of the British Museum (and a staunch anti-Darwinist),
on viewing the bones of Iguanodon and Megalosaurus, realized these represented
a unique group of reptiles that had not yet been classified.
He coined the term “dinosaur” from Greek words
meaning “Terrible Reptile or "Fearfully Great Reptile”.

Today's Topic:
Stand for truth!
1 Cor. 10 [13] There hath no temptation taken you
but such as is common to man: but God is faithful,
who will not suffer you to be tempted above that ye are able; but will with the
temptation also make a way to escape, that ye may be able to bear it.
Exod. 14 [13] And Moses said unto the people, Fear
ye not, stand still, and see the salvation of YHVH, which he will shew to you to day: for
the Egyptians whom ye have seen to day, ye shall see them again no more for
ever.
------------
Who is on YHVH's side?
Exod. 32
[1] And when the
people saw that Moses delayed to come down out of the mount, the people
gathered themselves together unto Aaron, and said unto him, Up, make us gods,
which shall go before us; for as for this Moses, the man that brought us up out
of the land of Egypt, we wot not what is become of him.
[2] And Aaron said unto them, Break off the golden earrings, which are
in the ears of your wives, of your sons, and of your daughters, and bring them
unto me.
[3] And all the people brake off the golden earrings which were in their
ears, and brought them unto Aaron.
[4] And he received them at their hand, and fashioned it with a graving
tool, after he had made it a molten calf: and they said, These be thy gods, O
Israel, which brought thee up out of the land of Egypt.
[5] And when Aaron saw it, he built an altar before it; and Aaron made
proclamation, and said, To morrow is a feast to the LORD.
[6] And they rose up early on the morrow, and offered burnt offerings,
and brought peace offerings; and the people sat down to eat and to drink, and
rose up to play.
[7] And the LORD said unto Moses, Go, get thee down; for thy people,
which thou broughtest out of the land of Egypt, have corrupted themselves:
[8] They have turned aside quickly out of the way which I commanded
them: they have made them a molten calf, and have worshipped it, and have
sacrificed thereunto, and said, These be thy gods, O Israel, which have brought
thee up out of the land of Egypt.
[9] And the LORD said unto Moses, I have seen this people, and, behold,
it is a stiffnecked people:
[10] Now therefore let me alone, that my wrath may wax hot against them,
and that I may consume them: and I will make of thee a great nation.
[11] And Moses besought the LORD his God, and said, LORD, why doth thy
wrath wax hot against thy people, which thou hast brought forth out of the land
of Egypt with great power, and with a mighty hand?
[12] Wherefore should the Egyptians speak, and say, For mischief did he
bring them out, to slay them in the mountains, and to consume them from the
face of the earth? Turn from thy fierce wrath, and repent of this evil against
thy people.
[13] Remember Abraham, Isaac, and Israel, thy servants, to whom thou
swarest by thine own self, and saidst unto them, I will multiply your seed as
the stars of heaven, and all this land that I have spoken of will I give unto
your seed, and they shall inherit it for ever.
[14] And the LORD repented of the evil which he thought to do unto his
people.
[15] And Moses turned, and went down from the mount, and the two tables
of the testimony were in his hand: the tables were written on both their sides;
on the one side and on the other were they written.
[16] And the tables were the work of God, and the writing was the
writing of God, graven upon the tables.
[17] And when Joshua heard the noise of the people as they shouted, he
said unto Moses, There is a noise of war in the camp.
[18] And he said, It is not the voice of them that shout for mastery,
neither is it the voice of them that cry for being overcome: but the noise of
them that sing do I hear.
[19] And it came to pass, as soon as he came nigh unto the camp, that he
saw the calf, and the dancing: and Moses' anger waxed hot, and he cast the
tables out of his hands, and brake them beneath the mount.
[20] And he took the calf which they had made, and burnt it in the fire,
and ground it to powder, and strawed it upon the water, and made the children
of Israel drink of it.
[21] And Moses said unto Aaron, What did this people unto thee, that
thou hast brought so great a sin upon them?
[22] And Aaron said, Let not the anger of my lord wax hot: thou knowest
the people, that they are set on mischief.
[23] For they said unto me, Make us gods, which shall go before us: for
as for this Moses, the man that brought us up out of the land of Egypt, we wot
not what is become of him.
[24] And I said unto them, Whosoever hath any gold, let them break it
off. So they gave it me: then I cast it into the fire, and there came out this
calf.
[25] And when Moses saw that the people were naked; (for Aaron had made
them naked unto their shame among their enemies:)
[26] Then Moses stood in the gate of the camp, and said, Who is on the LORD's side? let him come unto me.
And all the sons of Levi gathered themselves together unto him.
[27] And he said unto them, Thus saith the LORD God of Israel, Put every
man his sword by his side, and go in and out from gate to gate throughout the
camp, and slay every man his brother, and every man his companion, and every
man his neighbour.
[28] And the children of Levi did according to the word of Moses: and
there fell of the people that day about three thousand men.
[29] For Moses had said, Consecrate yourselves to day to the LORD, even
every man upon his son, and upon his brother; that he may bestow upon you a
blessing this day.
[30] And it came to pass on the morrow, that Moses said unto the people,
Ye have sinned a great sin: and now I will go up unto the LORD; peradventure I
shall make an atonement for your sin.
[31] And Moses returned unto the LORD, and said, Oh, this people have
sinned a great sin, and have made them gods of gold.
[32] Yet now, if thou wilt forgive their sin--; and if not, blot me, I
pray thee, out of thy book which thou hast written.
[33] And the LORD said unto Moses, Whosoever hath sinned against me, him
will I blot out of my book.
[34] Therefore now go, lead the people unto the place of which I have
spoken unto thee: behold, mine Angel shall go before thee: nevertheless in the
day when I visit I will visit their sin upon them.
[35] And the LORD plagued
the people, because they made the calf, which Aaron made.

------------
2 Cor. 1 [24] ... for by faith ye stand.
By faith ye stand, let's read about "faith"
Heb. 11
[1] Now faith is
the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.
[2] For by it the
elders obtained a good report.
[3] Through faith we
understand that the worlds were framed by the word of God, so that things which
are seen were not made of things which do appear.
[4] By faith Abel offered unto God a more excellent
sacrifice than Cain, by which he obtained witness that he was righteous, God
testifying of his gifts: and by it he being dead yet speaketh.
[5] By faith Enoch was translated
that he should not see death; and was not found, because God had translated
him: for before his translation he had this testimony, that he pleased God.
[6] But without faith it is
impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and
that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him.
------------
[7] By faith Noah, being warned of God of things not
seen as yet, moved with fear, prepared an ark to the saving of his house; by
the which he condemned the world, and became heir of the righteousness which is
by faith.
------------
[8] By faith Abraham, when he was called to go out
into a place which he should after receive for an inheritance, obeyed; and he
went out, not knowing whither he went.
[9] By faith he sojourned in the land of promise, as in a strange
country, dwelling in tabernacles with Isaac and Jacob, the heirs with him of
the same promise:
[10] For he looked for a city which hath foundations, whose builder and
maker is God.
------------
[11] Through faith also Sara herself received
strength to conceive seed, and was delivered of a child when she was past age,
because she judged him faithful who had promised.
------------
[12] Therefore sprang
there even of one, and him as good as dead, so many as the stars of the sky in
multitude, and as the sand which is by the sea shore innumerable.
[13] These all died in faith, not having received the promises, but
having seen them afar off, and were persuaded of them, and embraced them, and
confessed that they were strangers and pilgrims on the earth.
[14] For they that say such things declare plainly that they seek a
country.
[15] And truly, if they had been mindful of that country from whence
they came out, they might have had opportunity to have returned.
[16] But now they desire a better country, that is, an heavenly:
wherefore God is not ashamed to be called their God: for he hath prepared for
them a city.
------------
[17] By faith Abraham, when he
was tried, offered up Isaac: and he that had received the promises offered up
his only begotten son,
[18] Of whom it was said, That in Isaac shall thy seed be called:
[19] Accounting that God was able to raise him up, even from the dead;
from whence also he received him in a figure.
------------
[20] By faith Isaac blessed Jacob and Esau
concerning things to come.
------------
[21] By faith Jacob, when he was
a dying, blessed both the sons of Joseph; and worshipped, leaning upon the top
of his staff.
------------
[22] By faith Joseph, when
he died, made mention of the departing of the children of Israel; and gave
commandment concerning his bones.
------------
[23] By faith Moses, when he was
born, was hid three months of his parents, because they saw he was a proper
child; and they were not afraid of the king's commandment.
[24] By faith Moses, when he was
come to years, refused to be called the son of Pharaoh's daughter;
[25] Choosing rather to suffer affliction with the people of God, than
to enjoy the pleasures of sin for a season;
[26] Esteeming the reproach of Messiah greater riches than the treasures
in Egypt: for he had respect unto the recompence of the reward.
[27] By faith he forsook Egypt,
not fearing the wrath of the king: for he endured, as seeing him who is
invisible.
[28] Through faith he kept the passover, and the sprinkling of blood,
lest he that destroyed the firstborn should touch them.
[29] By faith they passed through the Red sea as by dry land: which the
Egyptians assaying to do were drowned.
------------
[30]By faith the walls of Jericho
fell down, after they were compassed about seven days.
[31] By faith the harlot Rahab
perished not with them that believed not, when she had received the spies with
peace.
------------
[32] And what shall I more say? for the time
would fail me to tell of:
Gedeon
------------
and of Barak
------------
and of Samson
------------
and of Jephthae
------------
of David also
------------
and Samuel
------------
and of the prophets:
------------
[33] Who through faith subdued kingdoms,
wrought righteousness, obtained promises, stopped the mouths of lions,
[34] Quenched the violence
of fire, escaped the edge of the sword, out of weakness were made strong, waxed
valiant in fight, turned to flight the armies of the aliens.
[35] Women received their
dead raised to life again: and others were tortured, not accepting deliverance;
that they might obtain a better resurrection:
[36] And others had trial of
cruel mockings and scourgings, yea, moreover of bonds and imprisonment:
[37] They were stoned, they
were sawn asunder, were tempted, were slain with the sword: they wandered about
in sheepskins and goatskins; being destitute, afflicted, tormented;
[38] (Of whom the world was
not worthy:) they wandered in deserts, and in mountains, and in dens and caves
of the earth.
------------
Eph. 6 [10]
Finally,
my
brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of his might.
[11] Put on the whole armour
of God, that ye may be able to stand against
the wiles of the devil.
[12] For we wrestle
not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers,
against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness
in high places.
[13] Wherefore take unto you
the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand
in the evil day, and having done all, to stand.
[14] stand therefore, having your loins girt about with truth, and
having on the breastplate of righteousness;
[15] And your feet shod with
the preparation of the gospel of peace;
[16] Above all, taking the shield of faith, wherewith ye shall be able
to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked.
[17] And take the helmet of
salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God:
[18] Praying always
with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, and watching thereunto with all
perseverance and supplication for all saints;
[19] And for me, that utterance may be given unto me, that I may open my
mouth boldly, to make known the mystery of the gospel,
[20] For which I am an ambassador in bonds: that therein I may speak
boldly, as I ought to speak.
[21] But that ye also may know my affairs, and how I do, Tychicus, a
beloved brother and faithful minister in the Lord, shall make known to you all
things:
[22] Whom I have sent unto you for the same purpose, that ye might know
our affairs, and that he might comfort your hearts.
[23] Shalom be to the
brethren, and love with faith, from God the Father and the Lord Yeshua the
Messiah.
[24] Grace be with all them
that love our Lord Yeshua the Messiah in sincerity.
Amen.
Shalom
