When I think of Heaven, I think of courage that is not depressing, but rather, inspiring. Feelings of courage are not depressing. Courage is based in belieivng good news. To be truly good news, the good news must be true. Believing truth is never wrong to do. It's always right to do. It's never unkind to believe truth. In fact, it is merciful to believe truth. It is wise and good planning to prepare to learn truth and do so. July 2, 2016 Upon revisitation of some of my historical learning in life, I have come to the conclusion that the only way in which your cause is just and you have any hope is to fight for the cause of freedom. There is no greater cause. In fact, there is no other victorious cause! July 2, 2016 One of the best ways to study a concept is to see if you can prove that it is wrong. July 3, 2016We make what we do not see, because we do not see reality in the present, but rather we see in the present and that is reality. By the time the light travels to your eye and enters it, it's already gone from where it emanated from to show you where something "is" and what it "looks like". Seeing is a historical phenomenon because by the time light is to us from where it left, it is gone from where it left. We sense in such a way as to not really see what is going on in ...the present, but rather light that traveled in the past entered our eyes and now we are seeing that. We walk by faith and not by sight because ultimately it takes time for information from the rest of reality to travel to us. Planning and prophecy are stabilizing forces in this process to help us have peace and strength. The Holy Spirit helps aids us in all of our self-control. The Holy Spirit is the Spirit of Truth. Eternal truths that never change aid us greatly in living in the temporariness of the moment, because they are so reliably unchanging, that we can count on them being true in every next moment that we will have. Value is added where time meets eternity... which is called the temporal. Our perseverance and discipline in light and momentary troubles are achieving for us an eternal weight of glory which is well worth the effort! :-) All good training, for whatever purpose, ends up being training for godliness. This process is based in truthfulness. Loving truth is the only way to have any enjoyment and self-control in life. July 5, 2016 The only thing anyone ever sincerely believes is good news. Everything within us shrinks back from believing bad news. Love is the only motivation for self-control. Lack of self control is unloving. Their is no righteousness in what does not exist. A command that Peter gave was to grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. July 5, 2016 I just had a profound revelation. Our senses are how we are detecting things. So, it follows that sensing things is detecting detective work. Through sensing we make obeservations and learn what is going on. Even using our built up skills and memory relies on our sensory history. So, indeed, there is no learning without detective work. Knowledge and wisdom come through experience. Making ourselves sense something takes effort. Thinking and making sense of things is a skill we all have and develop, but we are each unique in our own particular way of doing it, though we use common principles. July 5, 2016 I just figured out why we are tasked to pray for believers and all people at all times. When we pray for anyone, it affects everyone. So to pray adequately for anyone, we must pray with everyone in mind. Also, everyone is important. They are real people who have interests like you. Do unto them as you would have them do unto you. This is the only kind of prayer we are ever satisfied with. July 5, 2016 All truthfulness is merciful, and truth is the only thing people ever sincerely believe in all its infinitely spectacular and yet simple complexity. July 5, 2016 God's will is to lead justice to victory. God's will is the only thing ever actually accomplished in all of Creation. All that exists in our infinite Universe is God's Creation. God created all things. This is called God's Kingdom. In God all things have their substance and God holds all things together and sustains them by the word of His power. You shall reap what you sow. All of your sincere beliefs are merciful. You don't even sincerely believe lies. God's will truly is good, perfect, and acceptable. None of us make it any different. We don't even stop God from doing what He does, but we do help God do it. July 5, 2016 Lies are utterly indefensible. No wonder Jesus destroys the works of the devil. July 6, 2016 God doesn't remember missing the mark. He remembers aiming and hitting the mark. You only hit the mark that you aim for. So what you hit is what you have been aiming for. He and subsequently we only do what we desire to do. We always get the results that are due us in this ongoing process. July 6, 2016 You get what you ask for in this way... the exercise of your self-control. When you do what it takes to make something happen, you get exactly what you worked for. This is believing that you have received what you worked for. Working for something is the only way to get that something. It takes faith to work for something. If you don't get something, you didn't work for it... at least, not fully. What your hope is is evidence of what you are working for. Every person who believes truth is working to inherit the entire Kingdom of God in their own style. We are rewarded according to our work. God is not unfair in offering work to each and every one of us. July 7, 2016 I'll tell you what our hope is... all things! The only thing we have hope for is for God's will to be done. God's will is good, pleasing, perfect, and acceptable. Nothing else is even accomplished. Justice is always served. The good guys always win. Victory goes to those who love truth in their truth lovingness. July 7, 2016 Honor is the only thing anyone ever really receives. All actual payment is honor for work done. All praise is according to your worth. All praise is honor. We are enthroned upon the praises of all people. Every good thought you have towards people is praise. Wondering if lies are true does not mean that you believe that lies are true. Our hopefulness is showing what our good beliefs are. Our good beliefs are full of praise. Hopefulness is the joyful anticipation of the future. The only thing God has planned for the future are good works. Evil doing is more non-work type laziness based in being stuck in traps based on mis-judgment. No one has any hope that lies are actually true. July 7, 2016 Truth is so true that even the speech of devils is evidence of good news. July 9, 2016 Humbling yourself is doing what it takes to become praiseworthy. In due time, God exalts those who humble themselves. The word "exalt" means "highly praise". Those who are exalted are reigning with Christ in lovingkindness and patience and mercy and strength. The Bible says God is enthroned upon the praises of Israel. We also are enthroned upon praise. We are praised according to our insight. So we govern according to our strength of character, which is built through perseverance, resulting in hope. We have hope because of the love of God poured out in our hearts. July 10, 2016 People don't feel wrong uttering false prophecies, but they do feel powerless to make the false prophecy come true. Even the way they say it is evidence that the truth is true. They do not present any hope that the lie is actually true. They may be able to present true principles that are true and there is hope for that, but they will never be able to actually present good hope that the lie is actually true. I'm not saying they don't present hope. I'm saying their plan isn't very good in some ways, and they don't even believe that it is any better than it is. July 10, 2016 Hopelessness is the due penalty for operating according to mis-calculation. There is no available hope that the mis-calculation is actually true, though the true principles known would be true and there is hope for that. Also, when you operate according to a mis-calculation, you will get the results of that not so great assumption. This being said, it is good that we get results, and we can learn in the process and afterwards. July 10, 2016 Results in life are not illogical. Your results in life are tailor made for you and your life choices. All of us have a part in making it so. God Himself directs all of it. You get exactly what is due you. You do not get over-rewarded and you do not get under-rewarded. No sin is without its immediate consequences. No good choice is without its benefits. Sin is unbelief. The immediate consequences are the death of your beliefs in that part of your personality and it e...ffects all of your believing. Plans can change when people enter into unbelief. Unbelief is entered into upon mis-calculation and trying to use a mis-calculated answer and not knowing well that it is indeed a mis-calculation. This is called greed and attempted self-bribery. The good news is that no satisfaction ever comes out of greed and bribery does not work. You will get the results according to your work, however good and/or not good it is. Justice will indeed be served. July 11, 2016 True learning is receiving the Spirit of Truth. The Holy Spirit is the Spirit of Truth. The Holy Spirit is throughout all Creation. True learning feels good and empowers you to live well. Everyone who controls themself does so through true learning. I think a lot of people are like the man who said to Jesus: "Lord I believe, help me in my unbelief." The word "holy" means "committed to God". As many people have said, "all truth is God's truth." All truth is holy. Believing truth is how people live and control themselves, even if they are considering lies. July 11, 2016 Authority is controlling yourself to author history through your actions. All true authority is based in active truthfulness and self-control. July 12, 2016 Nothing is done in the Kingdom of God except it be done by letting and making your self-control be your faith declaration. Everything you control yourself to think and do is how you agree to live life and affect yourself and other people. Controlling yourself is doing what you desire to do and believing that you are receiving what you are controlling yourself to obtain as your immediate reward for your actions. Your actual results are what you obtain. This is called the l...aw of sowing and reaping. In a way, this is how the reaper catches up with the sower. You immediately reap what you sow at all times. Sometimes it takes a good season before the full harvest is reaped after an inital field preparation and sowing takes place. I takes work to get your heart ready to plant the word you and God agree to plant in it and to plant it. It also takes work to reap the harvest. It takes work to grow in grace and knowledge. An initial investment in education can be used to help you develop skills and make them grow into good abilities. This will bring a good harvest. Investments follow the law of sowing and reaping. There are many practical aspects to field/crop management. July 14, 2016 All of our planning for the future and talk about the future, however tentative it may be, is our prophetic declaration of our intent toward the future. We have gotten ourselves into every situation we were ever in this way. God is constantly helping us sense what is going on in the rest of reality and offering wisdom to us. God's mercy is completely good. We get everything that is due us. Life and death are in the power of our tongue. When we love our "word", we will eat the fruit thereof. That means we will experience the results of our self-control as we live in self-control and are making further decisions in an ongoing way. July 15, 2016 I've come to understand that everything that exists proves that truth is true, even false statements. False statements feel to be what they are. July 18, 2016 How we control ourselves is our demand that we place on all Creation. Creation then functions for us according to the perfect law of Supply and Demand. In this, we are also having a demand placed on us by all of Creation, and again the perfect law of Supply and Demand is what this will function according to. The law of sowing and reaping is basically this law in some ways, if it is properly understood. July 18, 2016 All force was so forceful that it happened. Some call this the will of God. Star Wars fans may call it the Force. I call it History and existence. Love is the only thing that ever made anything happen. July 18, 2016 The status of existence proves the status of being an overcomer. Love is the only thing that overcomes. Faith is the substance of all things hoped for. Love is faithful, and in that hopeful. All self-control is loving. Unrighteousness is merely lack of self-control, and is deadness in a way. The dead don't praise God, but they are not really doing anything anyways in their deadness, but if they have any life left in them, that is good. July 19, 2016 Something that gives me great peace of mind is that no matter how much I've wondered if lies were true, I was never able to sincerely believe them. I may have lived in such a way as to assume that my course of action was to be according to calculations that I wasn't sure about in a way, and in that it almost looked like I believed a lie, but I never had confidence that the lie was true, but rather that I could do what I planned to do in my truthfulness. The results always comes back. Truth turns out to be true. Existence wins. No one can successfully believe lies. Still existing is being an overcomer. In a way, we love everybody. Everbody is an overcomer. Jesus taught to love everybody. In a way, I think we do. It's the only way to accomplish anything. July 19, 2016 The Bible seems to say that everyone thinks they are right. I think I know why. It's because people can't successfully believe lies. What they really are doing when they are "believing lies" is trying something that they're not sure will yield any other results than that existence will prove to be what it actually is no matter what they do. They're never really sure that the lie is true. They're just trying to accomplish something while remaining unskilled in some ways at ascertaining what reality actually is... thus they are guessing at what to do, but they remain thinking that their actual thinking is right in their sincerity while they're trying to accomplish things. That's why they can and do have self-control. Self-control is based in real trust, which has to be according to the truth. July 19, 2016 In mechanical engineering school I learned ways of analyzing designs in order to seek to predict in some ways what the behavior might be according to known principles. The hard part is that though some main principles seem to be known in some ways, nature is ultimately complex, and being precisely perfect in knowledge by certain calculations is next to impossible. Thus, in engineering we talk about component factors that affect such things as stress and strain and vibration...s and heat transfer and fluid mechanics and so on. Much success has been had in engineering, thus we are able to have the technology we have on Earth. There have been failures as well. The truth that I want to get to here is that no matter how much we analyze and know ways that things generally act for certain types of general principles, nature is one unit and the results will be according to existence. Nature is impartial. Your calculations may be pretty good or maybe not so good. Rough estimates can be based on partial or mostly complete knowledge in certain regards, but nature will be what it will be. Nature is impartial. So calculations can not take certain factors into account and so not accurately predict results. This is called partiality. While calculations can be partial, results in nature will be according to what has always happened throughout all History... the laws of nature will impartially have their way as we do things.... no matter how well we know the laws of nature by analysis methods or not. July 19, 2016 Evil is lack of good and ultimately wasn't resisted, but overcome by love. July 21, 2016 There is proof in the Lord's prayer that God's entire Kingdom is involved in calling and appointing all Kingdom action. Truly the Kingdom of God is government by the people and for the people. The government is by the consent of the governed. God is over all and in all and through all. Jesus taught his disciples to pray "Thy Kingdom come!" and come we do.
