Jesus as a trans-sexual??? Blasphemy!

About 300 protesters held a candlelit protest outside a Glasgow theatre over the staging of a play which portrays Jesus as a transsexual.The protest was held outside the Tron Theatre, where Jesus, Queen of Heaven - in which Christ is a transsexual woman - is being staged.It is part of the Glasgay! arts festival, a celebration of Scotland's gay, bi-sexual and transsexual culture.Festival organisers said it had not intended to incite or offend anyone.The Christian protesters gathered outside the theatre ahead of the opening night of the production on Tuesday.

Jesus, Queen of Heaven, which runs until Saturday, is written and performed by transsexual playwright Jo Clifford.

The demonstrators sang hymns and waved placards.One read: "Jesus, King of Kings, Not Queen of Heaven."Another said: "God: My Son Is Not A Pervert."Festival organisers described the banners as "fairly provocative" and said they could be viewed as inciting homophobia.Glasgay!

producer Steven Thomson said: "Jesus Queen of Heaven is a literary work of fiction exploring the artist's own personal journey of faith as a transgendered person."Glasgay! supports the right to freedom of expression and offers audiences a diverse view of LGBT life."This work is not intended to incite or offend anyone of any belief system. However, we respect your right to disagree with that opinion."He added: "We welcome genuinely interested audience members who wish to understand the artistic intention behind this work."

'Christianity marginalised'Pastor Jack Bell, of the Zion Baptist Church in Glasgow, who took part in the protest, said: "We didn't threaten anyone going into the play or any of the cast members."It was a peaceful protest with hymns and placards."You can't blaspheme God and use freedom of speech as an excuse for that."He added: "True biblical Christianity is becoming marginalised through political correctness."If this play had treated the prophet Mohammed in the same way there would have been a strong reaction from the Islamic community, but that just wouldn't happen."Glasgay! is described as "Scotland's annual celebration of ***** culture" and is funded by the Scottish Arts Council, Event Scotland, Glasgow City Marketing Bureau and Glasgow City Council.

Tony Blair

One cannot think about Europe without once considering Tony Blair.

It is rumored that he bought land in Jerusalem. He's been right there with along side the big players with the Mid-east peace process.

Did you know that if Ireland recognizes the Libson Treaty, he will be named Europe's first President by the end of October??Keeping a watch, things are getting really interesting, sort of like a game of chess

Oldest Profession

I found this very interesting and very relevant to what is going on in our world, and our nation today.

After reading this, I can see the blue-print of how America, and also asll religions are going backwards you can see the rise of The Mystery Babylon. The more people allow these atrocities to occur and even accept them, the faster they become completely blinded to God's truth, and under the complete control of Satan.

Truly amazing!

*a small snippet*
An Age for Lucifer: Predatory Spirituality and the Quest for Godhood.”

And from Religion, the ancient Temples came then Prostitution at best was the World’s 2nd Oldest Profession and the Priests/Priestesses were the World’s first Pimps and Madams back then to today in World Religions though they hide it much.

Nimrod and Semiramis were very astute and knew back then that if a person is enslaved Spiritually, then he/she can be controlled totally. They knew from the Old World that no other could control People like Religion as the Fallen Angelic Host had taught Occult Sorceries to Women and Men before the Flood and their children the Nephilim/Giants. And it was very evil indeed.

Temple Prostitution and Human Sacrifice began because psychologically, when Men and Women will surrender what they Love like their own bodies as Sex-Slaves or their own beloved little Children to be Sex-Slaves or Sacrifices then the Priests/Priestesses know they have complete slavery and obedience to their crooked Authority.

So from this Human degradation from before the Flood was resurrected by Nimrod and Semiramis in Temples they built and setting up the foundations that underlie ALL World Religions to this day in time.

There was a very real Reason that Prostitution degradation and Human Sacrifice happened to test/force obedience and servitude of the People by the original trauma-based mind-control on those who followed the Religion demanded of them by Nimrod/Semiramis.

When anyone surrenders who/what they Love to be degraded/killed then it proves their Slavery is TOTAL; and the internal shame of it inside those who did/do it insures complete obedience and servitude lest their deeds be revealed, so Blackmailing began then with Religion.

And from Religion came not only Prostitution and Human Sacrifice but also this:

1.) Politics with “Elites’” Divine Kingship Game and Deification of “Royals” and controlling Bloodlines so the Wealth/Property/Control was kept in the Family;

2.) Corrupt Economy with Fractional Debt Usury that underlies ALL Global Economy/International Banking to this day;

3.) The Entertainment Industry to mollify and diss-inform the People to Culturally indoctrinate them with Plays/Dramas that were actual Occult Rituals/Psychodramas performed onstage that came over centuries later to Pre-Hellenic Greece in the Lesser Mysteries of Dionysia celebrated in the Spring in Athens with Play Competitions in Satire/Comedy/Tragedy that were Ritual Psychodramas onstage like the “Bacchae” of Euripides that celebrated the Dionysian blood lust of the Priestesses ripping apart a Human Sacrifice that goes back to Nimrod’s end; and Sporting Events to nourish the lusts and appetites of the people to encourage violence and brutal decadence as “Sport” that was used to enlist People in Military.

“4.) War/Conquest over People with Lands being confiscated with the People put to work as Slaves-for-Profit; Military to enforce corrupt Laws of Slavery and Servitude as well as conquering for Expansion; so Geopolitics began with Nimrod, NOT Hitler for “Lebenräuhme”/”Lives’ Spaces” as Karl Haushofer the author of modern Geopolitic called it in the 20th Century that the very evil Satanic/Sabbatean Zionist Jew Henry Kissinger follows to this day as Agent for the Ruling “Elites.”

(Karl Haushofer was doubtless ‘Ghostwriter’ of part of Adolf Hitler’s “Mein Kampf” when Hitler was in the Landsberg Prison after the 1923 Putsch incident. Hitler was visited by Haushofer and Rudolf Hess in his time there as well as his Satanic Occult Mentor, Dietrich Eckart who he dedicated “Mein Kampf” to.)

Vicarious Traumatization

At work for the last two weeks, we've talked about developing a relationship with our clients. This however, was coupled with a warning, "Be careful of Vicarious Traumatization"

What is that exactly?

All of the trauma work that we do, hour after hour, day after day, week after week, contributes to inner changes in the self of the therapist. It’s an inevitable part of the work…because we’re entering into a very dark world, and if we’re open emotionally, in the way we need to be to be effective helpers, we’re going to be impacted."– Laurie Anne Pearlman

It is when our world view becomes affected by the stories and the lives of our clients.

Today we had to sit and think of when we were affected, either positively, or negatively about our reactions to the children at the group home.

When I first started working. I was very calm on the job. I didn't react, or so I thought, to the children's acting out violently or sexually. I didn't flinch to their crude humor or deviant acts. I would just shake my head, change the subject and re-direct them to another place.

Then I went home.

I found my Sundays to be of great relief when I was in church. I would "give it to God" and get over it. It wasn't until I made Sunday dinner that suddenly the world became "too loud" the kid's arguing became "too much" I found myself reacting harshly...

Then night would fall, and my husband and I would retire for intimate time alone. I found that my skin would crawl at his touch, and I could barely lie still as he tried to get close.

Instead, I saw images of the kid's from work, perverted acts they had committed during the week. I re-lived their stories of horror at the hands of a "loved one"

I could no longer enjoy sex or being held.

It was a full two months before I realized that this was a problem. I at first, figured it was jsut stress from my job. Later I realized it was something more.

I gave it up to God.

I don't mean to say this in some kind of classic cliche way. No I poured my heart out and gave it over, because my husband and I started questioning, just how long we were going to last in this stale-mate.

This is where hope is given, that other's without Christ don't experience very often.

I found myself looking at the situation, and the kids. I saw WHY I was being affect so.

Past family trauma, religious belief all affected my view...

So I prayed to be as Jesus.

I was not prepared for what I felt.

There is a reason why it is said to weep with those who weep. There is a reason for why we go through so horrific things.

I looked at my boys in the group home. I had grown to love just about all...

Yet he was going to be a molestor when he grew up
He was going to be a thief and a liar without intervention
And my partner, my favorite staff, was cheater, that didn't apologize for his behavior.

Each person was a symbol of those I couldn't forgive from my past, and yet...in this setting as a child I loved.

I found myself weeping for their plight.
I found myself forgiving.

Forgivness was the result of my Vicarious Traumatization.

Each day that I work, the more I feel free as I forgive more and more.
I find myself overcoming obsticles, (though I am still far from perfect) that I used to numb pain.

I find myself looking at people in a whole different light.

Forgive me if I compare...But I am beginning to see them as Jesus does. As children.

Today, I am much more confident, prepared tp deal with the spitting, the calling of names, the sexually violent behavior. I see beyond the shell of the child and the pain within, and I pray to somehow reach where others fail to dwell...

We fight a spiritual battle.

Let us remember that we do not fight against flesh. Try and not hate our enemies lest Satan come and tempt us into sin.

We are to love as Christ loved.

Does this mean we condone sin? No...

But we are to truly love the sinner.

A taste of what's to come

Read this and you will see what an awesome God we serve:

One vote. That was the margin Wednesday by which the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America churchwide assembly approved a social statement that, among other things, acknowledges the validity of same-sex relationships that are "chaste, monogamous and lifelong."
The margin was so close that Bishop Mark Hanson, the ELCA leader who presided over the vote, hesitated before announcing the outcome. Rules required the social statement to pass by a two-thirds vote; the final result was 66.67 percent.

"I thought it was going to be close, but I doubted very much that it would come out at exactly two-thirds," said the Rev. Peter Strommen, chairman of the task force that drew up the social statement and pastor of Shepherd of the Lake Lutheran Church in Prior Lake.

Close as it was, the vote bodes well for a proposal to repeal a ban on gay and lesbian ministers from leading churches unless they promise to be celibate. That motion, which is to come up for a vote Friday afternoon, requires only a simple majority to pass.


Okay, so here is the awesome part...this is what happened as God responded to this abomination:

The National Weather Service received reports of a possible tornado near downtown Minneapolis, where winds tore off part of a 90-year-old metal church steeple. Wisconsin, Iowa and Illinois were also hit, though the only confirmed tornado as of Wednesday night was in Hastings, about 30 miles southeast of Minneapolis, where a 100-yard-long swath of trees was flattened.
Jack Freitag said he was standing in the lobby of the Central Lutheran Church in Minneapolis when he saw "a wall cloud from the south coming across the parking lot." Then a "very loud roar" came through as he saw signs being blown around in the wind.

The wind tore off part of the church's 90-year-old metal steeple around 2 p.m. while about 120 people were inside, said church spokesman Joe Bjordal.

"I was worried about the people then," said Freitag, who told everyone to seek shelter in the church's basement. No one was injured.

Outside the church, strong winds ripped apart large outdoor tents and scattered chairs and folding tables across the parking lot that were set up for the national Evangelical Lutheran Church in America convention. The church was scheduled to serve breakfast to guests attending the event at the Minneapolis Convention Center next door.

Judgment begins at the house of the Lord

Calm before the storm

So much has already happened ths year, and in record breaking pace; right now it feels as though we are in a lull, I suppose. I find myself searching the horizon in anticipation.


It's always calm right before a storm.

"Love Waxeth Cold"

I generally read the news every night. Each time I find it harder and harder to look away, harder and harder to feel happy...harder and harder not to imagine the grief that our Heavenly Father must feel.

There are two things that I can do. Either I turn away and swallow my pain, like a bitter pill until at last it deadens all feeling....or I feel each tear as it sears my cheeks.

I must be as Jesus...and therefore I feel.

Matthew 24

4And Jesus answered and said unto them, Take heed that no man deceive you.
5For many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ; and shall deceive many.

6And ye shall hear of wars and rumours of wars: see that ye be not troubled: for all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet.

7For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in divers places.

8All these are the beginning of sorrows.

9Then shall they deliver you up to be afflicted, and shall kill you: and ye shall be hated of all nations for my name's sake.

10And then shall many be offended, and shall betray one another, and shall hate one another.

11And many false prophets shall rise, and shall deceive many.

12And because iniquity shall abound, the love of many shall wax cold.

13But he that shall endure unto the end, the same shall be saved.
I suppose that's Jesus had to take time for himself. To shut His eyes and focus on something beautiful. This is why we have our secret prayer rooms. This is why He calls us to fellowship with Him. We need to look upon something beautiful.

13But he that shall endure unto the end, the same shall be saved
