Alan, HOW WONDERFUL that you should visit. I've been hoping one day you would drop by and just stick your head in the door and say, "Hi Gang". What we are trying to get to here is truth, the whole truth and nothing but. Trying to separate our precious Lord from Jim and Tammy and the associated hundreds of their likeness, which is like cleaning up the Alaskan coastline, I'm sorry, no matter what you do to clean the rocks the sludge is still there in little pockets, seeming never to leave the coastline pure once again. And what we should really think about the geographical boundaries of Isreal, and other very important matters, I think. And the fact that Jesus was brought to Earth apparently by His own words of every utterance to point us to a direct relationship with the One who Sits on the Throne, rather than the myriad manifestations of the prince of darkness who somehow inherited the Earth early on for almost 3,000 years without interruption, until the time Jesus came to Earth.

Now we try also to sort out if He was sent as the only God, and/or a new one, to be rejected, as the Jews and Islamics interpret it, or was He in his own words the only way to find the True God who in fact owns Heaven and has the rules for getting there whether we like it or not.

I know that for eternity Jesus will be the center of Heavenly activity, and there will still be another presence more wonderful that I cannot comprehend at this moment.

Again, I refer to the dog and the can of dog food. My dog understands the dog food, and recognizes his own dog food cans, and gets very excited looking at them. But the can opener throws him, and the factory that made the can opener is a compete Forget It.

And then within the ranks we are trying to sort out what the One
who Sits on the Throne would have us believe, rather than what we have talked each other into believing. Wouldn't you be happier that we were ALL perfectly on track rather than still beating around in the brush looking for the Straight and Narrow Path, and while so doing, keeing others from finding the Path themselves?

Anytime you have any comments I think they would be most valuable.

You yourself know more than anyone how convoluted the Path has been and how many strange turns it has taken. On both sides of the Vine.

Takes some serious faith for anyone to hang in there long enough to find out if it is all real. And indeed it is.....

Dig and Build!
Euto to Pluto......? (I sure hope)

(I sure do go on and on, don't I?)
