Hi Mr. Beckwith,
regarding: the concerns of your faith
It is good to want to have good political business government. But when you read about the external body of Christ, your local congregation of believers, 1 Corinthians 3:11-15, isn't that where God is concerned for us? To focus on the church organism setup by God? If that is so and if we see that something horrible has happened there in the reading of Matthew 24(true stones being cast down), because of Revelation 11:7-8, and 2 Thessalonians 2 about except there come a falling away first (wood, hay, stuble doctrine) (you said something about crumbling?) that the man of sin may be revealed may help focus this war you were talking of.
Here is a tract,
--------------
God Bless America
Immediately after creating the Declaration of Independence, the Continental Congress voted to purchase and import 20,000 copies of Scripture for the people of this nation. Patrick Henry, who is called the firebrand of the American Revolution, is still remembered for his words, "Give me liberty or give me death"; but in current textbooks, the context of these words is omitted. Here is what he actually said: "An appeal to arms and the God of hosts is all that is left us. But we shall not fight our battle alone. There is a just God that presides over the destinies of nations. The battle, sir, is not to the strong alone. Is life so dear or peace so sweet as to be purchased at the price of chains and slavery? Forbid it Almighty God. ! I know not what course others may take, but as for me, give me liberty, or give me death."
These sentences have been erased from our textbooks. Was Patrick Henry a Christian? The following year, 1776, he wrote this: "It cannot be emphasized too strongly or too often that this great Nation was founded not by religionists, but by Christians; not on religions, but on the Gospel of Jesus Christ. For that reason alone, people of other faiths have been afforded freedom of worship here."
Consider these words that Thomas Jefferson wrote in the front of his well-worn Bible: "I am a real Christian, that is to say, a disciple of the doctrines of Jesus. I have little doubt that our whole country will soon be rallied to the unity of our creator." He was also the chairman of the American Bible Society, which he considered his highest and most important role. On July 4, 1821, President Adams said, "The highest glory of the American Revolution was this: "It connected in one indissoluble bond the principles of civil government with the principles of Christianity."
Calvin Coolidge, our 30th President of the United States reaffirmed this truth when he wrote, "The foundations of our society and our government rest so much on the teachings of the Bible that it would be difficult to support them if faith in these teachings would cease to be practically universal in our country." In 1782, the United States Congress voted this resolution: "The Congress of the United States recommends and approves the Holy Bible for use in all schools." William Holmes McGuffey is the author of the McGuffey Reader, which was used for over 100 years in our public schools, with over 125 million copies sold, until it was stopped in 1963.
President Lincoln called him the "Schoolmaster of the Nation." Listen to these words of Mr. McGuffey: "The Christian religion is the religion of our country. From it are derived our nation, on the character of God, on the great moral Governor of the universe. On its doctrines are founded the peculiarities of our free Institutions. From no source has the author drawn more conspicuously than from the sacred Scriptures. For all these extracts from the Bible, I make no apology."
Of the first 108 universities founded in America, 106 were distinctly Christian, including the first, Harvard University, chartered in 1636. In the original Harvard Student Handbook, rule number 1 was that students seeking entrance must know Latin and Greek so that they could study the Scriptures: "Let every student be plainly instructed and earnestly pressed to consider well, the main end of his life and studies, is, to know God and Jesus Christ, which is eternal life, John 17:3; and therefore to lay Jesus Christ as the only foundation for our children to follow the moral principles of the Ten Commandments."
James Madison, the primary author of the Constitution of the United States,
said this: "We have staked the whole future of all our political constitutions upon the capacity of each of ourselves to govern ourselves according to the moral principles of the Ten Commandments."
Most of what you read in this article has been erased from our textbooks. Revisionists have rewritten history to remove the truth about our country's Christian roots. You are encouraged to share this with others, so that the truth of our nation's history will be told. This information shared is only a drop of cement to help secure a foundation that is crumbling daily in a losing war that most of the country doesn't even know is raging on, in, and around them....

No, perhaps we shouldn't get religious on this site, as people perceive reality, and value, or devalue it in different ways. Some would even seperate God from life - even as they struggle for life. However, that does not change history or fact. Thanks to whomever posted the article on our forefathers. I have no idea what it was in response to, as I've not been following the thread. Regardless, I thank you for posting these important facts. GOD bless you. Chloie

Hi Chloie: I have nothing against what Cliff wrote about our fore fathers. What I was upset about is the site in reply, which says the world is coming to an end and that Satan shall prevail. I do believe in God. I pray daily for him to help my husband get well. I Do Not need to hear about Satan and the ending of the world. I will not be coming back to this message board. as this kind of thing just upsets me too much. How dare you say that some seperate God from life - even as they struggle for life. I do hope you weren't talking to me. Thank-you to all those that helped me in the past. God Bless.

Flo, How dare I say that some seperate God from life??? How dare I speak the truth? It's easy. I would not presume to know what you believe. How dare you assume me to be such an idiot? Good luck to you and your husband. There are plenty of legitimate things to be offended over. You need not take offense where none is intended. It's not conducive to good health. Chloie

Hi Mr. Beckwith,
regarding: the concerns of your faith
It is good to want to have good political business
government. But
when you read about the external body of Christ, your local congregation of believers, 1 Corinthians 3:11-15, isn't that where
God is concerned for us? To focus on the church organism
setup by
God? If that is so and if we see that something horrible
has happened there in the reading of Matthew 24(true stones
being cast
down), because of Revelation 11:7-8, and 2 Thessalonians 2
about
except there come a falling away first (wood, hay, stuble
doctrine)
(you said something about crumbling?) that the man of sin
may be
revealed may help focus this war you were talking of.
Here is a tract,
--------------
God Bless America
Immediately after creating the Declaration of Independence,
the Continental Congress voted to purchase and import 20,000 copies of
Scripture
for
the people of this nation. Patrick Henry, who is called the firebrand
of
the American Revolution, is still remembered for his
words, "Give me
liberty or give me death"; but in current textbooks, the context of
these words
is omitted. Here is what he actually said: "An appeal to arms
and the
God
of hosts is all that is left us. But we shall not fight our
battle alone.
There is a just God that presides over the destinies of nations.
The battle,
sir, is not to the strong alone. Is life so dear or peace so
sweet as
to be
purchased at the price of chains and slavery? Forbid it Almighty
God. ! I know not what course others may take, but as for me, give me liberty,
or give me death."
These sentences have been erased from our textbooks. Was
Patrick
Henry a Christian? The following year, 1776, he wrote this: "It
cannot be
emphasized too strongly or too often that this great Nation was founded
not by
religionists, but by Christians; not on religions, but on
the Gospel
of Jesus Christ. For that reason alone, people of other faiths have
been
afforded freedom of worship here."
Consider these words that Thomas Jefferson wrote in the
front of
his
well-worn Bible: "I am a real Christian, that is to say, a disciple of
the doctrines of Jesus. I have little doubt that our whole
country will
soon be rallied to the unity of our creator." He was also the
chairman of
the
American Bible Society, which he considered his highest and most
important role. On July 4, 1821, President Adams said, "The highest
glory of
the
American Revolution was this: "It connected in one
indissoluble bond
the principles of civil government with the principles of Christianity."
Calvin Coolidge, our 30th President of the United States reaffirmed
this truth when he wrote, "The foundations of our society and our government rest so much on the teachings of the Bible that it would be difficult to
support them if faith in these teachings would cease to be
practically universal in our country." In 1782, the United States Congress voted this resolution: "The Congress of the United States recommends and approves
the Holy
Bible for use in all schools." William Holmes McGuffey is the
author of
the
McGuffey Reader, which was used for over 100 years in our public
schools, with over 125 million copies sold, until it was stopped in
1963.
President Lincoln called him the "Schoolmaster of the
Nation." Listen
to these words of Mr. McGuffey: "The Christian religion is the religion
of our country. From it are derived our nation, on the character
of God,
on
the great moral Governor of the universe. On its doctrines are founded
the
peculiarities of our free Institutions. From no source has
the author
drawn more conspicuously than from the sacred Scriptures. For all these
extracts from the Bible, I make no apology."
Of the first 108 universities founded in America, 106 were distinctly
Christian, including the first, Harvard University,
chartered in
1636.
In the original Harvard Student Handbook, rule number 1 was
that students
seeking entrance must know Latin and Greek so that they
could study
the Scriptures: "Let every student be plainly instructed and earnestly
pressed to consider well, the main end of his life and studies, is,
to know
God and Jesus Christ, which is eternal life, John 17:3; and
therefore to
lay
Jesus Christ as the only foundation for our children to follow the moral
principles of the Ten Commandments."
James Madison, the primary author of the Constitution of the
United
States,
said this: "We have staked the whole future of all our
political
constitutions upon the capacity of each of ourselves to
govern ourselves according to the moral principles of the Ten Commandments."
Most of what you read in this article has been erased from
our textbooks. Revisionists have rewritten history to remove the truth
about our
country's Christian roots. You are encouraged to share this with
others, so
that
the truth of our nation's history will be told. This information shared is
only a drop of cement to help secure a foundation that is
crumbling daily
in a losing war that most of the country doesn't even know is
raging on,
in, and around them....

igetwhipsawed, We are not a list where all posts have to be approved by the moderators. We only moderate new members until we can see that they are here for the right reasons, and we moderate members who repeatedly disregard they guidelines given in our Group Description. The greatest number of members are not moderated. If any one of them sends a post that contravenes the stated purpose of this group, it will hit the board, there is nothing we can do about it. What we can do is to place this member on moderate, which, depending on the message, is usually is not done the first time around. We can remove the message from the archives and remind the member(s) to get back on topic. Such reminders are usually not sent right away because it is hoped that self-regulating of the group will take care of it and also, the moderators are not watching all the time. In cases of persistent disregard of our guidelines, a member can be removed from the list. This group is supposed to be about FO and related health topics, right? The purpose of this group is stated in our Group Description which you can read at our Yahoo site. Wilhelm ----- Original Message ----- From: igetwhipsawd To: FlaxSeedOil2@...

IMO - it's difficult to draw the line sometimes between what is appropriate and what is not as health/life is the overall issue here and health is affected by so many things. Another point - is it really positive for people to not be able to exchange ideas, communicate and connect on this site? Maybe the answer is to let people speak their minds, share anything they feel is of value, and just title everything that is not pure fo/cc talk as OT. If people disagree - FINE. That doesn't mean they shouldn't be able to voice that or question things. We could benefit form a little tolerance here. I mean, isn't the objective to help each other? Chloie

Chloie IMO - it's difficult to draw the line sometimes between what is appropriate and what is not as health/life is the overall issue here and health is affected by so many things. I agree that there are grey areas where it is difficult to know whether something is on topic or not. In these cases you will usually not get any objection from other members or from the moderators. Religion and politics are not one of the grey areas. They are clearly off topic. They are explosive topics because of the many different points of view, religions and philosophies. It is unwholesome to discuss this here. All you need to do is to look at Flo wanting to leave this group because of what was said... That is not to say that Cliff or I do not have our religious convictions, or that Ulla does not have her philosophy (as she pointed out today), but this is not the place to discuss them. Another point - is it really positive for people to not be able to exchange ideas, communicate and connect on this site? People come here for information about FO and the Budwig Protocol. They can freely exchange information and connect on that. That is what we are here for. We are a focussed group but do allow a certain amount of OT posting, especially if it is related (like the current thread on almonds). It is counter productive to talk about religion, daycare, 9/11, safe boating, coin colleting, pet grooming or any of such clearly OT subjects. Maybe the answer is to let people speak their minds, share anything they feel is of value, and just title everything that is not pure fo/cc talk as OT. Most members will disagree. It also clutters up this board which many members have objected to openly and to me privately. Some people have left for that reason. One more point is that a lot of OT posts unnecessarily fill up our Yahoo storage allotment and it makes it harder to search the archives for relevant information. If people disagree - FINE. That doesn't mean they shouldn't be able to voice that or question things. Chloie... let's just respect the guidelines of this list. We could benefit form a little tolerance here. I mean, isn't the objective to help each other? To me, being tolerant is to respect the principles of others. Is sticking to the principles of this group intolerant? Is questioning these principles being tolerant? Wilhelm

Yes, Wilhelm, I believe it is - absolutley. To respect the principles of others does not mean to stifle them. How sad is it that nobody can say something they feel is important to health on this group that is supposed to be about health? But it is your list. I whole heartedly disagree that spiritual matters have the same significance to one's health as do daycare and coin collecting. Again, it is your list. You have chosen to ignore, no, bar what you feel is not relevant. I will try to not say anything contrary to your beliefs. Chloie
