Well said.

Sorry am not getting to the longer postings as I'd prefer. Perhaps on Sunday.

So many priorities afoot.

ELECTION 2004
Bilderberg 'performance'
key to Edwards VP pick
'He reported back directly to Kerry' said participant in super-secret conference

Sen. John Edwards, D-N.C.

Sen. John Edwards' standout "performance" at the super-secret Bilderberg meeting in Italy last month may have been a key reason for his selection as John Kerry's vice presidential running mate, according to the New York Times.

The 50th anniversary conference of the elite group – which many believe conspires semi-annually to foster global government – met June 3 through June 6 in Stresa, Italy, at the Grand Hotel des Iles Borromees.

Among the attendees from the U.S., according to a list obtained by WND, were Senators John Edwards, D-N.C. and Jon Corzine, D-N.J., Henry Kissinger, Richard Perle, Melinda Gates (wife of Bill Gates), David Rockefeller, Timothy F. Geithner, president of the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, Donald Graham, chairman and CEO of the Washington Post Company, and even Ralph Reed, former head of the Christian Coalition.

(Here is the entire Bilderberg attendance list as published previously by WND.)

According to a report in yesterday's New York Times by Jody Wilgoren, analyzing why Kerry chose Edwards over the other 24 serious contenders for the No. 2 spot:


Several people pointed to the secretive and exclusive Bilderberg conference of some 120 people that this year drew the likes of Henry A. Kissinger, Melinda Gates and Richard A. Perle to Stresa, Italy, in early June, as helping win Mr. Kerry's heart. Mr. Edwards spoke so well in a debate on American politics with the Republican Ralph Reed that participants broke Bilderberg rules to clap before the end of the session. Beforehand, Mr. Edwards traveled to Brussels to meet with NATO officials, brandishing his foreign-policy credentials.
"His performance at Bilderberg was important," said a friend of Mr. Kerry who was there. "He reported back directly to Kerry. There were other reports on his performance. Whether they reported directly or indirectly, I have no doubt the word got back to Mr. Kerry about how well he did."


Since 1953, the Bilderberg group has convened government, business, academic and journalistic representatives from the U.S., Canada and Europe with the express purpose of exploring the future of the North Atlantic community.

According to sources that have penetrated the high-security meetings in the past, the Bilderberg meetings emphasize a globalist agenda and promote the idea that the notion of national sovereignty is antiquated and regressive.

'Shadowy aura'

"It's officially described as a private gathering," noted a BBC report last year, "but with a guest list including the heads of European and American corporations, political leaders and a few intellectuals, it's one of the most influential organizations on the planet."

And according to a BBC report on June's conference in Stresa: "Not a word of what is said at Bilderberg meetings can be breathed outside. No reporters are invited in and while confidential minutes of meetings are taken, names are not noted. The shadowy aura extends further – the anonymous answerphone message, for example; the fact that conference venues are kept secret. The group, which includes luminaries such as Henry Kissinger and former UK chancellor Kenneth Clarke, does not even have a website."

But, counter participants, the secrecy is not evidence of a grand conspiracy, but only an opportunity to speak frankly with other world leaders out of the limelight of press coverage and its inevitable repercussions.

"There's absolutely nothing in it," argues the UK's Lord Denis Healey, one of the four founders of Bilderberg. "We never sought to reach a consensus on the big issues at Bilderberg," he told the BBC. "It's simply a place for discussion."

Daniel 3:1-30
http://bible.gospelcom.net/cgi-bin/bible?language=english&passage=daniel+3&version=NASB

v.1-7 After the interpretation of Nebuchadnezzar's dream. He made an image of gold and set it up in Babylon.

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Why do you think he made the whole image of gold. In his dream Nebuchadnezzar was just he head?
What do you think Nebuchadnezzar is doing or saying with the erection of this statue?

The king then sent for satraps, the perfects, the governors, the counselors, the treasurers, the judges, the magistrates and all the rulers of the provinces to come to the dedication of the image.

4 Then the herald loudly proclaimed: "To you the command is given, O peoples, nations and men of every language,
5 that at the moment you hear the sound of the horn, flute, lyre, trigon, psaltery, bagpipe and all kinds of music, you are to fall down and worship the golden image that Nebuchadnezzar the king has set up.
6 "But whoever does not fall down and worship shall immediately be cast into the midst of a furnace of blazing fire."

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Thoughts....The above to me sounds so much like Saddam Hussein or possibly the Antichrist. Maybe GOD is telling us that this is what to be on the look out for in latter days an example so to speak. The not so surprising part is people actually worshiped him.

v.8-18 Here we find a great display of faith by Shadrach, Meshach and Abed-nego. When charges were brought on them by the Chaldeans for not adhering to Nebuchadnezzar command there reply was...17 "If it be so, our God whom we serve is able to deliver us from the furnace of blazing fire; and He will deliver us out of your hand, O king.

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I find this a great Lesson for Life. Can you relate to problems in your life when you felt like you are being cast into the blazing furnace? If we can just pass our human nature of pride and turn to GOD first, in bad circumstances we could live as fearless as this.

v.19-30 Nebuchadnezzar is so angry that he has the furnace heated seven times more than it is usually heated. Has Shadrach, Meshach and Abed-nego tied up and as the warriors were putting them in the fire the flame of the fire slew those men who carried them up.

Nebuchadnezzar "was astounded and stood up" (I like that part) he saw 4 men in the furnace. 25 He said, "Look! I see four men loosed and walking about in the midst of the fire without harm, and the appearance of the fourth is like a son of the gods!"

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Question: Who do you think the fourth person was in the fire who is "like a son of gods"?
How did the lives of these men impact Nebuchadnezzar' s life?
What can we learn about GOD in this chapter?
