Vultures in general eats the flesh of the dead. Because that is the nature of vultures. They feed on the dead. Spiritually, there are people feeding on the dead. Dead in the Bible means corrupted, ignorant and stupid people.
Ephesians 2
1 And you hath he quickened, who were dead in trespasses and sins;
Matthew 8
21 And another of his disciples said unto him, Lord, suffer me first to go and bury my father. 22 But Jesus said unto him, Follow me; and let the dead bury their dead.
Luke 9
57 And it came to pass, that, as they went in the way, a certain man said unto him, Lord, I will follow thee whithersoever thou goest. 58 And Jesus said unto him, Foxes have holes, and birds of the air have nests; but the Son of man hath not where to lay his head. 59 And he said unto another, Follow me. But he said, Lord, suffer me first to go and bury my father. 60 Jesus said unto him, Let the dead bury their dead: but go thou and preach the kingdom of God. 61 And another also said, Lord, I will follow thee; but let me first go bid them farewell, which are at home at my house. 62 And Jesus said unto him, No man, having put his hand to the plough, and looking back, is fit for the kingdom of God.
Hebrews 6
1 Therefore leaving the principles of the doctrine of Christ, let us go on unto perfection; not laying again the foundation of repentance from dead works, and of faith toward God, 2 Of the doctrine of baptisms, and of laying on of hands, and of resurrection of the dead, and of eternal judgment. 3 And this will we do, if God permit.
In Luke it says there once you put your hand to the plough, go on moving forward because the carabao is ready and the field is ready. So we can sow the seeds in the good soil. The kingdom of God is waiting and that is the most important thing.
The Lord said that he does not know where to lay his head. The road becomes his bride. Does that mean he is constantly traveling? Yes I would say in his youth. But we travel spiritually in going to perfection, we research for new technology, ideas and philosophies and if they are of good spirit, then follow it.
Forward, always forward I go. You learn from bad and good experiences, however, do not walk back into it. Go forward.
As we talked about, the Revelation is likened to the happenings and events in a Kingdom and a country. Revelation 6 talks of seven seals. This is the last will and testament of Jesus that he dictated to John.
The one sitting at the throne, of course, is the wife of Jesus. The Lamb is Peter. Because the Lion is Jesus. The Lamb is sacrificed for the Lion. I believe, in other words, the Apprentice.
We talked of talents and those are ones that Jesus talked about in his will. He was assigning duties and responsibilities before he pass away.
Revelation 6 1 And I saw when the Lamb opened one of the seals, and I heard, as it were the noise of thunder, one of the four beasts saying, Come and see.
Peter as the Apprentice of Jesus, presided on the opening of the seals. The four beasts are four Bishops they have produced at the time.
The first seal is a person with a bow on a white horse. Peter because we usually vote for the highest position first.
The second seal, a person with a great sword on a red horse. Sword means speaking and media, I think their News head.
The third seal, a person with a pair of balances on a black horse. The Judge.
The fourth seal, a person with a sword on a pale horse. The Trailblazer who is chief for foreign relations.
I read the news about the suicide of a young actress and you get saddened with this though you didn't know the person. When I clicked on the link, I get scared with the paranormal artwork she has been making that I went out of my room and watch some television.
Guys when you see people with these kind of artwork, go out of your way and befriend these people. They might not tell you their problems but they will appreciate that someone appreciates their presence in this world.
Cold weather, silence and the night will make you extra scary so you turn on lights, listen to loud music and talk to people. The best thing to do is to pray to send the negative thoughts away. God sends angels to his people.
That is why when I see a tomboyish girl, I make extra effort to cast away the evil spirit on the person.
Mark 9
25 When Jesus saw that the people came running together, he rebuked the foul spirit, saying unto him, Thou dumb and deaf spirit, I charge thee, come out of him, and enter no more into him. 26 And the spirit cried, and rent him sore, and came out of him: and he was as one dead; insomuch that many said, He is dead. 27 But Jesus took him by the hand, and lifted him up; and he arose. 28 And when he was come into the house, his disciples asked him privately, Why could not we cast him out? 29 And he said unto them, This kind can come forth by nothing, but by prayer and fasting.
God has given you the talents and authority to cast out these evil spirits in people. Try the Spirits. Avoid every appearance of evil. When the discussion is disgusting, get away from it.
Galatians 5
19 Now the works of the flesh are manifest, which are these; Adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lasciviousness, 20 Idolatry, witchcraft, hatred, variance, emulations, wrath, strife, seditions, heresies, 21 Envyings, murders, drunkenness, revellings, and such like: of the which I tell you before, as I have also told you in time past, that they which do such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God.
To continue, the following commandments are plain, simple and direct to the point. You just have to walk in it. Sometimes the New Testament speaks of mysteries as well so find the Teachers for the answers.
22 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, 23 Meekness, temperance: against such there is no law.
Ephesians 1
3 Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who hath blessed us with all spiritual blessings in heavenly places in Christ: 4 According as he hath chosen us in him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and without blame before him in love: 5 Having predestinated us unto the adoption of children by Jesus Christ to himself, according to the good pleasure of his will,
6 To the praise of the glory of his grace, wherein he hath made us accepted in the beloved. 7 In whom we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of sins, according to the riches of his grace; 8 Wherein he hath abounded toward us in all wisdom and prudence; 9 Having made known unto us the mystery of his will, according to his good pleasure which he hath purposed in himself: 10 That in the dispensation of the fulness of times he might gather together in one all things in Christ, both which are in heaven, and which are on earth; even in him: 11 In whom also we have obtained an inheritance, being predestinated according to the purpose of him who worketh all things after the counsel of his own will: 12 That we should be to the praise of his glory, who first trusted in Christ. 13 In whom ye also trusted, after that ye heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation: in whom also after that ye believed, ye were sealed with that holy Spirit of promise, 14 Which is the earnest of our inheritance until the redemption of the purchased possession, unto the praise of his glory.
Ephesians 6
4 And, ye fathers, provoke not your children to wrath: but bring them up in the nurture and admonition of the Lord.
The Husbands entrusts to the Wife the teaching of good values and right conduct to the children. He reminds the children to follow their Mother when he is not around. The Husband is working to support the family according to the plans he made with the Wife. As the couple is joined through love, their planning for children is also about love, They decide on how many children they gonna have in a way that they can give love to the children like they have the capabilities to send the children to schools and raise them to be good citizens. Have children if you will love them and have the resources to take care of each and every one of them.
In the same manner, you teach children how to care for other people and have discipline. You can teach children responsibility in helping the family in little ways and you can also adopt a pet for them. But only if the children loves to have a pet and they have plans and take care of the pets. Otherwise, don't get pets if you will not take care of them. Adopt pets if you love pets.
However, newly-weds are not to have pets because their time is for each other only.
Ecclesiastes 7
25 I applied mine heart to know, and to search, and to seek out wisdom, and the reason of things, and to know the wickedness of folly, even of foolishness and madness: 26 And I find more bitter than death the woman, whose heart is snares and nets, and her hands as bands: whoso pleaseth God shall escape from her; but the sinner shall be taken by her. 27 Behold, this have I found, saith the preacher, counting one by one, to find out the account: 28 Which yet my soul seeketh, but I find not: one man among a thousand have I found; but a woman among all those have I not found. 29 Lo, this only have I found, that God hath made man upright; but they have sought out many inventions.
This is a rant from a person who is jealous and insecure. The person is jealous of the attention the women are getting. There are 1000 men listening to the person however there is only one man is supportive. So the person does not include women to gain all the attention. On who the righteous is, I think this is a case of He said, She said.
Titus 3
9 But avoid foolish questions, and genealogies, and contentions, and strivings about the law; for they are unprofitable and vain.
Hebrews 8
7 For if that first covenant had been faultless, then should no place have been sought for the second. 8 For finding fault with them, he saith, Behold, the days come, saith the Lord, when I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel and with the house of Judah: 9 Not according to the covenant that I made with their fathers in the day when I took them by the hand to lead them out of the land of Egypt; because they continued not in my covenant, and I regarded them not, saith the Lord.
That is why the Apostles and Early Christians have recommended that you people read the New Testament because it has the complete guidelines for you to have a righteous life.
The Parable of the Talents
Matthew 25
14 For the kingdom of heaven is as a man travelling into a far country, who called his own servants, and delivered unto them his goods. 15 And unto one he gave five talents, to another two, and to another one; to every man according to his several ability; and straightway took his journey. 16 Then he that had received the five talents went and traded with the same, and made them other five talents. 17 And likewise he that had received two, he also gained other two. 18 But he that had received one went and digged in the earth, and hid his lord's money. 19 After a long time the lord of those servants cometh, and reckoneth with them. 20 And so he that had received five talents came and brought other five talents, saying, Lord, thou deliveredst unto me five talents: behold, I have gained beside them five talents more. 21 His lord said unto him, Well done, thou good and faithful servant: thou hast been faithful over a few things, I will make thee ruler over many things: enter thou into the joy of thy lord. 22 He also that had received two talents came and said, Lord, thou deliveredst unto me two talents: behold, I have gained two other talents beside them. 23 His lord said unto him, Well done, good and faithful servant; thou hast been faithful over a few things, I will make thee ruler over many things: enter thou into the joy of thy lord. 24 Then he which had received the one talent came and said, Lord, I knew thee that thou art an hard man, reaping where thou hast not sown, and gathering where thou hast not strawed: 25 And I was afraid, and went and hid thy talent in the earth: lo, there thou hast that is thine. 26 His lord answered and said unto him, Thou wicked and slothful servant, thou knewest that I reap where I sowed not, and gather where I have not strawed: 27 Thou oughtest therefore to have put my money to the exchangers, and then at my coming I should have received mine own with usury. 28 Take therefore the talent from him, and give it unto him which hath ten talents. 29 For unto every one that hath shall be given, and he shall have abundance: but from him that hath not shall be taken away even that which he hath. 30 And cast ye the unprofitable servant into outer darkness: there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.
When talents are developed, it would lead to more talents to be learned. When a religion prevents their citizens, especially women, in developing their talents, they are dependent like babies who cries and gnash their teeth. And what progress can a country attain if their citizens are baby-like? Oil is a combustible material and if the oil wells cannot produce anymore and the citizens are babies, what would happen to the country? I am telling you this because I am concerned on your future. Invest on your people especially the women and children so that they will be educated and can help the country later on. I see Moslem women in the Philippines working at the shops and that is a pity. Are they good only for that kind of work? Definitely not. Like we discussed before, women are capable of having high positions in government as long as they have the qualities of a leader. The traditions and laws preventing them to be educated and to work should be changed or altogether removed.
This can be illustrated in the following Digimon Digivolving:
We discussed earlier the five talents and it means you can develop more skills if you have goals, you persevere and you communicate.
Administrators: As Leaders you become Mayors, Governors and Presidents or Prime Ministers.
Lawmakers: As Authorities of the law and actions of people, you become Lawyers and Judges.
Ambassadors: As Envoys locally and overseas, you become Entertainers, Celebrities, Trailblazers and Royalty.
Speakers: As speakers and debaters you become Toastmasters, Media people, Congressmen and Senators.
Teachers: Teachers become Fishermen - Fishers of men.
These talents will overlap somewhere so there are many skills and responsibilities to be learned and positions and duties to be had within these talents. You just have to be patient, according to your own pace to level up. Keep on punching.
What am I saying is that the Spirit is what is important according to Jesus. Believe it or not. Did you look at the elevator going several floors up or are you looking at the girl stripping? Yeah right.
I am saying here that this is something only a husband should see.
The Mona Lisa (Italian: Monna Lisa or La Gioconda, French: La Joconde) or La Gioconda is a half-length portrait of a woman by the Italian artist Leonardo da Vinci, which has been acclaimed as "the best known, the most visited, the most written about, the most sung about, the most parodied work of art in the world".
The sitter, Lisa del Giocondo,[8][9] was a member of the Gherardini family of Florence and Tuscany, and the wife of wealthy Florentine silk merchant Francesco del Giocondo.[10] The painting is thought to have been commissioned for their new home, and to celebrate the birth of their second son, Andrea.[11] The Italian name for the painting, La Gioconda, means "jocund" ("happy" or "jovial"), or literally "the jocund one", a pun on the feminine form of the sitter's married name Giocondo.[10][12] In French, the title La Joconde has the same meaning.
I think Leonardo da Vinci is in love with the Lady Lisa. He kept on working on the painting for years. I would also think that he has shown the painting to the Lady who has a nasty pair of eyebrows and a big smile. Leonardo is just teasing the Lady with his painting of her with no eyebrows and a faint smile.
What is Leonardo doing with all the reworking of the painting? He is reminiscing about her moods because her smile and face is tattooed on his mind.
I dunno, it just occurred to me that Mona is from Mon Amie which means My Friend. I know that is a french word that usually the greeting of Hercule Poirot, Agatha Christie's detective and its almost certain that Leonardo could have known the term Mon Amie. That is why I shared the video.
The New Testament is a commentary of the Old Testament. There are apostles, prophets, evangelists, pastors and teachers. People have gifts for administration, law-making, ambassadors, speaking and teaching. These are the five talents.
Admin people have mastery of the law and they have the discipline to enforce the law to fellow officials. Law-makers reviews the old laws to revise them, to make them obsolete and make new laws. Ambassadors are charismatic people who influences people with the obedience of the law. Speakers have mastery of the subject they are speaking about. Teachers have the faith and perseverance in making students learn because Teachers love it when their students graduate and start to apply the lessons in their lives. Why is Speakers different from Teachers? Speakers are representative of a particular subject or person so they should know all the history on the subject and person. Teachers can connect to people without speaking.
God has given you talents so make use of it. When you have two or more talents, then you are a Divergent.
Do not bury your talent/s like the person in the Parable of the Talents. Develop it to become successful.
Hebrews 8
7 For if that first covenant had been faultless, then should no place have been sought for the second. 8 For finding fault with them, he saith, Behold, the days come, saith the Lord, when I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel and with the house of Judah: 9 Not according to the covenant that I made with their fathers in the day when I took them by the hand to lead them out of the land of Egypt; because they continued not in my covenant, and I regarded them not, saith the Lord. 10 For this is the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel after those days, saith the Lord; I will put my laws into their mind, and write them in their hearts: and I will be to them a God, and they shall be to me a people: 11 And they shall not teach every man his neighbour, and every man his brother, saying, Know the Lord: for all shall know me, from the least to the greatest. 12 For I will be merciful to their unrighteousness, and their sins and their iniquities will I remember no more. 13 In that he saith, A new covenant, he hath made the first old. Now that which decayeth and waxeth old is ready to vanish away.
Read and follow the New Testament, that is the advice of the Early Christians because they have read the Old Testament and they find errors in it and laws not applicable for their time and place.
My advice for you people is to read the New Testament first. If you feel you have the gift for interpreting, then go on with the Old Testament. Because responsible and thorough lawmakers can learn from reviewing the bad and the good. Some of the laws in the New Testament are plain and simple. You just have to follow it. For laws you find difficult to understand, you ask and listen to Teachers.
It is implied above that the New Testament is after the Spirit - put the laws into their mind and write it in their hearts. Its like when you have a Last Song Syndrome or LSS. The rhythm keeps ringing in your mind so you search for the lyrics. When the music and lyrics synched, then its written into your heart.
Okay here's a group of lawless monkeys and the one I pointed with the arrow is undoubtedly the Leader. Because it is the biggest and most physically fit. That is the law of the jungle. Survival of the fittest. The most powerful reigns. As Leader of the pack, I am sure it has several wives and probably one or two submissive male monkeys as assistants. I have observed this phenomenon on a couple of zoos. What separates humans from monkeys is that the monkeys do not know they are naked. It doesn't care how many females it fathers as long as the lust of the flesh is satisfied because they are animals. It doesn't care on the well-being of their children. The most important thing for the Leader is its own survival. We're not monkeys.
I think there is homosexuality among monkeys and this is the cause of Ebola virus. Not the sexuality. I mean the sexual acts. Its like Sodom and Gomorrah. As animals, they do not have the laws to be decent. So the best solution for these is to put them in a controlled environment like animal zoos. Do we need monkeys in the ecosystem? Or are they actually nuisance to the jungles? Its up to the researchers the solution for this.
Aside from men, the natural predator for monkeys is the eagle so you have to put monkey-eating eagles in that part of the world.
I tell you the time I am in the zoo, a group of monkeys is roaming around, when I get around to a bend, they have barricaded the road. The numbers are like that in the picture above. There's one who has a tree branch and making sounds like commanding the group. I turned around and see a zoo attendant and told her the problem. She gets a big tree branch and makes sweeping motions against the ground. The monkeys ran away in all directions.
Cats and dogs in the wild are a nuisance, unsightly and sometimes dangerous because they have rabies. Especially wild dogs because they are aggressive. Sometimes private shelters like the one above and also individuals rescue. However its the government which must step in and get these cats and dogs away from the streets so that the streets are less dangerous.
Cats and dogs in the wild will have acquired diseases so I am sure the Veterinarians have castrated the cats in the picture above. Those in the cages still have their sexual organs.
Cats and dogs are domesticated pets. Families take care of pets because they teach responsibility to children. In this regard, my advise for newly weds is to procreate, have fun and help other people. Pets are for children and to all the lonely people of the world.
I just started The Book of Revelation and as I said that Jesus formed a secret society to help people. Try to envision the Revelation as the ceremonies and the events and happenings in a Kingdom or a country for that matter. In Chapter 1, John was speaking here and we can see a dying Jesus who is dictating his Last Will and Testament to John. Its quite saddening news. I am not in the mood to read all. In other times for sure. I just scanned it and in Chapter 5 is the formal announcement of Peter as the new Lord. The four living creatures is that they have produced four Bishops at the time and the 24 elders would be the Deacons. These are all symbolism.
Basically the verses above is the same as the Golden rule:
Confucius
Don't do unto others what you don't want others to do unto you.”
Matthew 7
12 Therefore all things whatsoever ye would that men should do to you, do ye even so to them: for this is the law and the prophets.
Hadith, Abu Dawud 41:4832 simply just say keep company with like-minded people. Its natural you make friends with people who shares the same ideologies, hobbies, food among others. It also says here Muslims should be pious or righteous.
And in Quran 2:191-193, this is a metaphor. Allah means your loved one here. Say your wife is your Allah because she is amazing and she makes everything nice and she glides in the air. The ones you should kill are the urges to have other women because worship is for Allah alone. You should only have one wife. You should transgress or be angry at womanizers (polytheists) and wrong-doers because they are not righteous.
