Peter's Jobs
Peter's Jobs
John 21: 15 -17 talks about Jesus and Peter after Jesus' resurrection. "So when they had finished breakfast, Jesus said to Simon Peter, 'Simon, son of John, do you loveMe more than these?' He said to Him, 'Yes, Lord; You know that I love You.' He said to him, 'Tend My lambs. He said to him again a second time, 'Simon, son of John, do you love Me?' He said to Him, 'Yes, Lord; You know that I love You.' He said to Him, 'Shepherd My sheep.' He said to him the third time, 'Simon, son of John, do you love Me?' Peter was grieved because He said to him the third time, 'Do you love Me?' And he said to Him, 'Lord, you know all things: You know that I love you. Jesus said to him, 'Tend My sheep."
I want to assume that everybody needs forgiveness for their sins, and I believe that Jesus is the only one whose blood is effectual in obtaining this forgiveness. Therefore, Jesus' sheep includes all human beings throughout all history. Thus, if Jesus did really call me Peter, then I have to fulfil this commission of Peter's by helping everybody. Thus I have come up with 9 or 10 non-profits, businesses, or cooperatives, which I hope will be helpful for all. The only problem is how will I get financing seeing that I am among the mentally ill? However, if God decides that I am to become a polygamist, my wives will help with setting up these companies. Further, it's like God gave me all the gold in the world, that is in the spiritual substance. I refuse to use this money unless and until I know how to use it. In other words, last time I figured it there was about one acre of arable land per person on Earth. I think Mother Earth, Mother Nature, Mother Wisdom, Mother Eve, and ALL of my wife's "greats" agree that this one acre can NOT be taken away from its rightful owner - not even for debts or foreclosure - so that EVERYBODY will have enough to eat plus making fiber clothes. Then ALL of my wife's "greats" will also agree that everybody should have their fair share of all other lands on earth, which would include mountains and deserts which adds up to about 5 acres total for each person on earth. Mothers Earth, Nature, and Wisdom agree that every one of their children needs to be taken care of PLUS some Native Americans think it's wrong to work: rather they are hunters. Also I need to find a way to accommodate all wildlife. That is exactly how these Mothers want their children to be treated. How to do this I don't know. And not until I know how to do this do I want to use this gold He has given me. Further, this money needs to be used in case there has been the abomination of desolation. We need to spend whatever is frugal to record what the whole Earth was like as well as everything that man has done throughout history - before the judgment by fire. We need to document these and all other things necessary.
I want to emphasize that my wife and I have much to contribute - if people of this day and age want our help. For instance I seem to be able to get along without oxygen for certain lengths of time, and this would make it possible for our astronauts to not need oxygen tanks in their exploration and colonization. As well as getting water from the foods we eat. And the Bible also promises that some day some of us will get wings like eagles.
Further, I don't want to start a church. Further, I don't mind being a member of a specific church, but I could never be a member of their session or anything similar until I have enough of an income to give a tithe.
So it is highly likely that Moses was a polygamist. But the Bible comes right out and says .that Abraham, Jacob/Israel, King Saul, King David, and King Solomon were polygamists. Does the U.S. Supreme Court want to call these noted people "criminals" because of their polygamy? The U.S. Supreme Court heard the case against polygamy in the early 1900s and found that it was illegal at that time. In Luke 18:29, the NAS says, "And He said to them, 'Truly I say to you, there is no one who has left house or wife or brother or parents or children, for the sake of the kingdom of God, who shall not receive many times as much at this time and in the age to com, eternal life." This implies polygamy for ALL of Jesus' followers. Then Luke 25: 1-13 has Jesus saying that in the kingdom of heaven He will have ten virgins waiting for Him to marry Him, but because five of them weren't prepared He takes only five. How can this be anything but polygamy? So the U.S.A. Supreme Court is going to label Jesus as a criminal for this polygamy?
There is a burning question my experiences cause, namely, " where in the Old Testament did Jesus get the idea that one aspect of Jesus ministry would be Communion throughout history after His resurrection?" I can't find it but I do think that His feeding of the 5000 and 4000 (plus women and children) was a trial run in this respect. Whatever, as far as I remember, Isaiah talks about the one with the Holy Spirit fully present in himself giving off a trickle of water from his inward being - (my explanation is that the water of life comes from the pericardium and out the navel, AND Jesus backs up this prophecy in the gospel of John. Whatever, I am terrified of this happening to me that I give off the water of life for 2 millennia - which was Jesus deadline for the Blood and Bread of Communion - and then that stops after all those years and everybody used to that happening. Or somehow or other giving off the trickle which is the fountain of the water of life starts to use up my physical substance just as Communion eventually ate up Jesus
After Paul converted and took on the task of being the disciple for the Gentiles, he went up with Peter and others to Jerusalem and got it from the horse's mouth. James, the brother of Jesus decided that the only burden which the Christian Church would put on the converted Gentiles is fourfold - including not eating or drinking blood. BUT nowhere does the Bible say that converted Gentiles need to keep the "Jewish" Sabbath, i.e., Friday evening until Saturday evening, for the weekly day of rest. Thus, in light of this from the Bible, I don't see why the Seventh Day Adventist are so set against Sunday for church services.
After that tri-partite rod descended from heaven to attach itself to me in about 1995, maybe about 8 years later it began to transfer to others for different periods of time. It did that so many times that I figured it was to go to all 490 stones/men of Daniel's prophecy eventually and that there must be about 7 stones/men available in these end times: PLUS God gave many who wanted to try out a chance. Further, about 2 years after my getting God's eyes a friend of mine got Gods eyes for a while: PLUS a few others tried out for the following position: having as a guardian angel one of the seven angels who served as God's eyes throughout history. As far as I know, I still have God's eyes and those who have tried out for that position haven't quite made it. .
After reading the Satanic Bible, I find that I can, with some leeway, agree that many Christians are hypocrites, especially when it comes to sex. However, there were a few paragraphs of this book which says it wants to take an axe to God's head!! I know no more evil thing than this. Of course, Satan would respond that Jesus and God want to throw him and his followers into a place of fire and brimstone - and I really can't argue with them about this except that God and Jesus created us and have the rights that go along with the fact that they created it all - even including Satan. Then there's Psalm 137:8-9 (NAS) which says, "O daughter of Babylon, you devastated one, How blessed will be the one who repays you With the recompense with which you have repaid us. How blessed will be the one who seizes and dashes your little ones Against the rock." This is perhaps the most evil thing written in the Bible. I want To know who is responsible for these verses in the Bible? Certainly it couldn't have been God the Father/Creator or Jesus/the Word. Does that mean that the Holy Spirit wrote it? I can't quite buy that. Then how did it get in the Bible?
Further, I want to compliment the humanists, cynics, agnostics, atheists, Satanists, etc for their sincerity on the subject of sexual hypocrisy - even though I disagree with them in many other ways,
It seems that Moses did not believe himself: in the Torah it talks about wasps as the mechanism for driving the Canaanites out of the land of Canaan - so that the land doesn't become barren al at once and so that the wild animals do not take over. Joshua also should have known this. Certainly if Moses rod/snake could cause the parting of the Red Sea it could have helped the Israelites with the Ammonites and other enemies during its 40 years in the wilderness. AND also I must ask again, "Where did Moses get the nerve to shatter the two tablets of stone the first time he came down from Mt. Sinai. How could there be a more wonderful archaeological artifact.
There is the matter of the Bible and homosexuality. Whatever, I can understand when somebody says that they can not help themselves in this respect. I claim that when I am having a mental health crisis, I can't help myself with what I say and do: therefore I need to give to homosexuals the same right and respect. Further is the evidence of their possibly being a genetic component to homosexuality. No matter what the Bible says or how one interprets it, therefore, as human beings homosexuals deserve whatever happiness they can get by having legal marriages. Further, There are probably a lot of homosexuals who prefer that life-style and who are we to tell them differently? However, I strongly suspect that God won't allow homosexual sex to lead to the kind of all-over-the-body tingling that guarantees the soul and spirit are bound to the physical body, i.e., the kind of sex that causes eternal life.
Many times my first wife, Kitty, would say to me - and I believed her quite a bit - that it sometimes happens that somebody one considers one's enemy turns out to be one of your best friends. Thus, I have had an experience with the Virgin Mary in which she - at my recommendation - got much life-saving help from a rattlesnake who lived on the five acres of land where Kitty and I were trying to build a natural life-style farm about 35 west by north west of Trinidad, Colorado. When I learned that we had a rattlesnake I took a banana - which I think is the fruit of the tree of knowledge of good and evil- and peeled it and put it on a flat stone and pushed it towards that snake (I was very much afraid of that snake's wild nature, but I felt I needed to let him/her know that I had no hard feelings)who was curled up around the trunks of a bush. If I remember right he/she never ate that banana, but he/she/it was willing to help the Virgin Mary when she desperately needed the help and I didn't know what to do.
But this full story is for the Virgin Mary to tell. Which reminds me that I am against secrets. I yearn for the time when I can tell all about my sins and get everything off my chest. I am not about to do that now because I feel it is up to those involved to tell their own stories. Further, many of my sins involve well-known leaders of the U.S.A. and the world as well as young innocents. It's up to them to spill the beans; not me.
David's polygamy might be largely a misunderstanding plus the lose of one or part of one book of the Bible; that is Dueteronomy, where the lost part wasn't recovered until centuries after David, and warns Israel's kings against multiplying wives and/or horses.
Not only do I agree with the Bible that it is very foolish to refuse the forgiveness of sins that Jesus offers - which is one way of "earning" eternal life - but my personal policy is that I will never learn my lessons by being punished in full for my sins - which could well mean eternal life also. Why not insure myself and have two different ways of obtaining eternal life? However, as far as I know I would never have had a chance at the later means for eternal life without first approaching God through Jesus
So far I have mentioned my wife by name once or twice. I shouldn't have done that for she can speak for herself. Fursther, when I have completed this missive I want to give it to her to edit and critique - she will be the final authority on what goes on this website.
I am not trying to give evolutionists a bad time when I mentioned that somewhere in my reading I came across a report by an early evolutionist who congratulated his colleagues for "kicking God off His throne" with evolution! Obviously, they had had a hard time in their pasts and attributed it to God. How could they help that? In other words, God needs a P.R. man/woman. Really God isn't the big bad wolf and it will take a mere human being to stick up for God. That is something anybody can do to help God.
Further, as far as I'm concerned, so-called "evilness" is just another form of mental illness. I can and will try to treat Satan and Mother Babylon and Death and ALL their followers accordingly. And, some of the evolutionists wanting to kick God off His throne is nowhere near as bad as Satan wanting to take an axe to God's head.
According to Prophecy In The News of June 2007, p. 9, "According to statistics, there are 3.2 billion acres of land on planet earth." and the earth's population is "reaching toward 6.6 billion"
YET. According to the World Almanac, p.846, "According to UN estimates, the 6 bil figure was reached in 1999. By mid-2006 the total world population was estimated at about 6.53 bil." Meanwhile, according to the Wikipedia ( the free encyclopedia on the computer) article on Arable land "Of the earth's 57 million square miles (148,000,000 km squared ) of land approximately 12 million square miles (31,000,000 km squared) are arable ( land that can be used for growing crops)...."
According to p.1-23 of the CRC Handbook of Chemistry and Physics, to convert from (one) acre to square meters, we need to multiply by 4.047 E03. That means that there are 247 acres per squared kilometers. This means that there are 36,600,000,000 acres of land on earth, of which 7,657,000,000 acres is arable land. All of which goes to show how much we need to divide Mother Earth's and/or Mother Nature's land fairly - the way they want - i.e., leaving no one without their fair share of land for life. In other words, there are about 1.16 acres of arable land per person at the present. And it will be unlawful to take that land away - for any reason. My big problem is how to distribute any gold I might or might not have in order that each person gets what Mother Earth and/or Mother Nature wants, which is to say that Mother Wisdom wants this too.
Also the same article in Prophecy In The News, the same page, quotes a source that says, "It takes about four-tenths of an acre to feed one person for one year." Further, thought on this subject shows that we will need not only arable land enough for food but also for plant fibers for clothes of linen and cotton along with clothes out of animals hairs - like wool which means that we will need some of our arable land for growing sheep, e.g.
Matthew 25:1-12 says, " Then the kingdom of heaven will be comparable to ten virgins, who took their lamps, and went out to meet the bridegroom. And five of them were foolish, and five were prudent. For when the foolish took their lamps, they took no oil with them. But the prudent took oil in flasks along with their lamps. Now while the bridegroom was delayed, they all got drowsy and began to seep. But at midnight there was a shout,"Behold the bridegroom! Come out to meet him.' Then all those virgins rose, and trimmed their lamps. And the foolish said to the prudent,"Give us some of your oil, for our lamps are going out.' But the prudent answered, saying, 'No there will not be enough for us and you too; go instead to the dealers and buy some for yourselves.' And while they were going away to make the purchase, the bridegroom came, and those who were ready went in with him to the wedding feast; and the door was shut. And later the other virgins also came saying,'Lord, lord, open up for us.' But he answered and said,'Truly I say to you, I do not know you.'" All of which brings up the subject, "Would Jesus have brought up this parable if He didn't support - or at least tolerate - polygamy?"
