Once Again - A Glancing Blow from the Storm - Maybe Some Snow

The storm is not upon us...yet. I follow the weather maps closely for our little NW corner of Arkansas. We are almost always spared the storms that rush by above us (Joplin, Missouri) or below us (Little Rock). 

I was thinking about winning and losing tonight. Massive losses are accumulating for those who engaged in evil and treachery years ago - and cover it up, as best they can, today. 

I miss so many leaders of the past, like FBI head Comey. And Dick Cheney, the embodiment of evil. At the funeral of George HW Bush, Cheney looked up at the camera recording the event and glared so ferociously, it looked as if he willed the camera to fail from his power. If I were winning, I would smile benevolently or put on a sad face about the passing of the former CIA Director. 

When the Obama crew posed for their goodbye photo at the White House, all of them glared into the camera, Cheney style. I noticed one particular redhead trying to break the camera lens. Four years later she became the press secretary, so bad that her communication attempts are animated for everyone to enjoy. I will circle on back to her later.

Synod leaders are like that. The evil ones are easily forgotten, and most hope they are. I was thinking of the radical professor who said the LCA was 99.9% controlled by men - she was posing on the cover of their magazine. That was Elizabeth Bettenhausen. She was here and there, but has escaped the reporting of Google. The latest datum is about 30 years old. 

Liz won for her side. She gave the Mattson lectures for no apparent reason. When I raised the issue of the funds being siphoned and the endowment money misused, the key person used my favorite phrase in talking to the sem president, "I have already talked to my attorney about this." Dead silence was followed by frantic efforts to heal the wound. 

Now ELCA has at least 50% female bishops, so justice has been done and a new age is upon them. Unfortunately, the Pyrrhic Victory means that the golden dawn will rise upon empty churches, hollowed out and merged seminaries, and necessary liquidation events. 

ELCA is the warning for the LCMS-WELS-ELS-CLC-Eldonia bullies. The office of bishop or faux-bishop is pursued by those who will do anything to get and keep the power. However, once they are in the posh leather chair, speaking ex cathedra (not wiki but a favorite source for LutherQuest and Harrison), they only accelerate their doom. 

Tentative Title - The King James Version: Apostolic Text, Precise Translation versus Fraudulent Text and Heretical Translations

 

+++

The second version of The Bible Book needs a new title, so I am proposing - 

The King James Version:  

Apostolic Text, Precise Translation versus Fraudulent Text and Heretical Translations

This sums up what I am trying to teach in the book, and it is really a starter book for those who want to pursue the KJV topic. I have read and re-read some recently received books, which by themselves have a lot to say about the pagan and Roman Catholic influence on all modern translations, especially the Little Three - the ESV, RSV, and NIV.

So if you have any ideas about how to improve the new title in blue above, email me at greg.jackson.edlp@gmail.com

 The Little Three Bibles are produced this way, and they keep on changing too.

Your Morning "I Told You So."

 John Durham - this post has been fact-checked by
Google, Yahoo,  the NY Times and the Clinton Foundation.

I have continuous conversations with people about the ultimate victory of the President and the shattering defeat his opponents. If you need to ask, "Which President?" - stop reading.

I began following Bill and Hillary Clinton before they were elected President. Given their pedigree (Yale Law) and political history, Arkansas, a lot of facts were spilling out about both of them, far too soon for someone running for high office.

I said then, in St. Louis, when we had monster movie nights, "They will fill a bookstore with books about how corrupt they are." Newly elected, Bill and Hillary reeked of corruption in the casual background articles about both.

Long ago, the Clintons filled bookstores with research volumes exposing everything they did. However, books do not indict. Prosecutors do. The lawyer/CPA said, "Greg. How did you know?" I said, "There were so many early stories about them that they had to be completely corrupt."

The current situation is akin to the Persian army of 1 million men, versus Alexander the Great's at 50,000. He could not figure out how to defeat them, but once he did, he fell asleep completely. He was very difficult to wake up the next day. Apparently he figured out that the 20 to 1 ratio worked against the Persians. They had many languages, many officers, many chains of command. Alexander routed them.

When Durham was appointed prosecutor, most people lost track of him his continuous labor. They forgot his past, which was a good prediction of his future, never letting go of a criminal prosecution. 

Everyone around Bill and Hillary, plus a few more high-level yokels, is now in deep yogurt. Hillary is distraught. I said before, thanks to my research connections, "It is all coming down. Everything. It is going to be Biblical."

I expect things to be even crazier for a time, but those are just the last few attempts to distract and take the heat off those guilty of major crimes. Some can only be tried in military court, in a safe place like Gitmo. 

 I copied this funny take on the "Durham wasp," years ago. Do you wonder why?
Vincero!
