Flashback Friday: The Twist

 

 

 Released as a single in June, 1960 singer Chubby Checker performed "The Twist" 
for the first time before an audience at the Rainbow Club in Wildwood, New Jersey.
Just weeks later, on August 6, 1960 the song became a national sensation after he
performed it on Dick Clark's American Bandstand, which at that time was broadcast 
from Philadelphia.  "The Twist" became a Number One Hit record and dance 
craze from coast-to-coast.  The rest, shall we say, is American rock 'n' roll history.

Dead Sea Discovery That STUNNED Scientists — And the Bible Predicted It!

 

 

 

 "He said to me, 'These waters go out towards the eastern region and go down
into the Arabah. When they enter the sea, the salty waters there become fresh.
And wherever the river flows, there will be swarms of living creatures and a
great number of fish, because these waters flow there and make the salt
water fresh; so where the river flows, everything will live."
(Ezekiel 47:8-9)

"And on that day living water will flow out from Jerusalem, half of it toward the
Eastern Sea and the other half toward the Western Sea, in summer and winter alike." 
(Zechariah 14:8)

 All aboard as host Erick Stackelbeck takes us for a boat ride 
  on the mysterious Dead Sea to reveal emerging salt islands, fresh
water springs, and fish-signs which Ezekiel and Zechariah prophesied
in the Bible.  The lowest place on earth is receding fast, but life is
breaking through in ways that science is only beginning to understand...

Thursday's Thoughts: There Shall Be Showers Of Blessing

 

 

 

"He gives rain to the earth and sends water upon the fields."
(Job 5:10)

There shall be showers of blessing:

This is the promise of love;

There shall be seasons refreshing,

Sent from the Savior above.

 

 

Showers of blessing,

Showers of blessing we need:

Mercy drops round us are falling,

But for the showers we plead. 

 

There shall be showers of blessing,

Precious reviving again;

Over the hills and valleys,

Sound of abundance of rain. 

 

There shall be showers of blessing;

Send them upon us, O Lord;

Grant to us now a refreshing,

Come, and now honor Thy Word. 

 

There shall be showers of blessing;

Oh, that today they might fall,

Now as to God we're confessing,

Now as on Jesus we call! 

 

There shall be showers of blessing,

If we but trust and obey;

There shall be seasons refreshing

If we let God have His way.

 

Showers of blessing,

Showers of blessing we need:

Mercy drops round us are falling,

But for the showers we plead.

Throwback Thursday: A Matter Of Faith...And The Free Exercise Thereof

 

 

 "What has been will be again and what has been done will be done again;
there is nothing new under the sun."
(Ecclesiastes 1:9)

In regards to the current push for a Constitutional Convention to be held in
our nation, something which I do not think is necessary- our Constitution is
  not the problem, and should be left as our Founding Fathers wrote it- I submit 
a letter I wrote to the Editor of The Sentinel Newspaper of Franklin Township 
twenty two years ago- published on April 15, 2004:

America is facing a very serious crisis concerning her freedom, and
 not only from bloodthirsty foreign terrorists. This threat to our way of life
is an internal one and should be considered an ominous warning for
 every citizen who believes that we are one nation under Almighty God.

The danger I speak of is the twisted, perverse agenda of hardcore left-wing
judges unleashed in courtrooms across America. These elitist liberals are
determined to banish God forever from our land. Their plans are nothing new.

Since 1947, liberal justices have been waging a battle against our country's
religious heritage. They want to rewrite our history, particularly the fact 
 that our nation was founded under Judeo-Christian principles.

A recent example took place on August 3, 2003 when an order was issued to
remove a monument inscribed with The Ten Commandments from the
Alabama Supreme Court.  The justices' excuse was that the monument
violated separation of church and state.

However, their order was unconstitutional!

Our Constitution has no wording in it regarding the separation of church
and state. What it does say is, "Congress shall make no law respecting
 the establishment of religion or prohibiting the free exercise thereof..."

In 1947, the United States Supreme Court was hearing the case of Everson
vs. Board of Education. In their decision regarding this case, they lifted an
excerpt from a letter written by Thomas Jefferson, which spoke of "a wall
of separation between church and state" and used it to promote their radical
views of interpreting constitutional law, ruling not only separation
 of church, but religion and state as well. 

The Supreme Court was never authorized by Congress to alter the First Amendment,
changing the prohibition against government establishment of a national church to
prohibition against any religious acts by individual states. 

The Supreme Court chose to close the Everson case with these alarming words:

 "The First Amendment has erected a wall between church and state. The wall
  must be kept high and impregnable. We could not approve the slightest breach." 

The First Amendment says no such thing. It does not prohibit displays of
 The Ten Commandments, reading the Bible in public schools, "In God We Trust"
on our currency, or "One Nation Under God" in the Pledge of Allegiance.

It is time for people of faith to stand up and take their country back.

Senator Richard Shelby (R-Alabama) is attempting to thwart the God-bashers
in their high and mighty tracks.  He is the primary sponsor of Bill HR3799,
the Constitution Restoration Act. This bill would limit judges from ruling on
 issues of God and religion. All it needs to pass is a majority of our Congress
to realize how vitally important this bill is to our religious freedom.

As a Christian, I have been discriminated against by other area newspapers
that refused to print a recent letter I wrote regarding religious freedom. I am
grateful to The Sentinel for respecting my view.  Thank you for printing my
letter that appeared in your March 18-24 edition.

In closing, I would like to ask everyone reading this letter and who feels the
way I do about this issue to please contact your representatives in Congress
as soon as possible. A concerted, grassroots effort on the part of concerned
people will be the first steps to a possible future victory against the
tyrannical powers that be.

As the famous author Rudyard Kipling wrote:
 "Stand up and take the war, the Hun is at the gate."
