The Bible In Paintings ~ Encouragement for Appreciating and Applying God's Word ~ JOHN THE BAPTIST PREACHING FEATURING 29 PAINTINGS ~ L U K E ~ Chapter 3* The word of God came to John son of Zechariah in the desert. He went into all the country around the Jordan, preaching a baptism of repentance for the forgiveness of sins. As is written in the book of the words of Isaiah the prophet: “A voice of one calling in the desert, ‘Prepare the way for the Lord, make straight paths for him. Every valley shall be filled in, every...

This list only includes destroyed vehicles and equipment of which photo or videographic evidence is available. Therefore, the amount of equipment destroyed is significantly higher than recorded here. Small arms, ATGMs, MANPADS, loitering munitions, drones used as unmanned bait, civilian vehicles, trailers and derelict equipment are not included in this list. All possible effort has gone into avoiding duplicate entries and discerning the status of equipment between captured or abandoned. Many of the entries listed as 'abandoned' will likely end up captured or destroyed. Similarly, some of the captured equipment might be destroyed if it can't be recovered. When the...

I ain't doing it.

President Joe Biden believes the next few years in politics will set the stage for generations, expressing this theme in recent speeches. “Our lifetimes are going to be shaped by what happens the next year to three years,” Biden said. “It’s going to shape what the next couple of decades look like. For real.”

.....Department of Justice monitors are not permitted under Florida law. Section 102.031(3)(a) of the Florida Statutes lists the people who “may enter any polling room or polling place.” “Earlier today, the Florida Department of State received copies of your letters to Miami-Dade and Broward Counties in which you seem to indicate that the Department of Justice will send monitors inside polling places in these counties,” reads the letter. “We also understand you sent a similar letter to Palm Beach County. But Department of Justice monitors are not permitted under Florida law. Section 102.031(3)(a) of the Florida Statutes lists the people...

Vasilis Tsiartas, a Greek former football player of AEK Athens F.C. and the Greek national team, was sentenced by the Single-Member Misdemeanor Court of Athens to ten months in prison. He also received a five thousand euro suspended fine for his transphobic post on social media in 2017. The Transgender Support Association (SYD) describes the conviction of Vassilis Tsiartas, the first for public incitement to violence or hatred for reasons of gender identity, as “particularly important for the transgender community.” SYD also points out that an application for just satisfaction will follow due to exceeding the reasonable duration of the...

Jesus answered, “You would have no authority over Me at all if it had not been given to you from above John 19:11

After the Voters SpeakWe have won the argument and now we need to act like it.In 1984, the Democrats ran Jimmy Carter’s former vice president against Ronald Reagan. The Democrats did not seem to accept or believe that Americans had turned their backs on their enlightened views about the Soviet Union, crime, and the social safety net. But they had. In perhaps the most stunning rebuke in American electoral history, Election Night 1984 delivered this map: 270towin.com Take a moment to look at it and ponder what led every American state except Minnesota (and Washington, D.C.) to reject a return...

Instead, they spend their time, day in and day out, constantly saying you or your family members, neighbors, co-workers, employees, or employer who voted for Donald Trump once or twice is an ultra-, mega-, extremist-MAGA insurrectionist fascist out to strip your rights and votes away. And they wonder why people have turned on them! The final image of this election happened last week when someone snapped an iPhone photo of Michael McGuire, who just got off of work at the local coal mine and rushed to Rupp Arena at the University of Kentucky so he could watch an event with...

"No one has shot more blanks than me. On 'Rambo,' I wanted to show what a .50-caliber could do to a human being. We took a dummy and filled it with 200 pounds of beef. I thought, 'When I fire, it will knock the dummy over.' There were no bullets in the gun. It was just the force of the compression in the shell. But it turned the dummy into mist. It blew it apart. Then I turned the .50-caliber to a row of bamboo trees and it literally cut them in half. This is without bullets!"

Ronna McDaniel, the chair of the Republican National Committee, on Sunday said GOP candidates running in this week’s midterm elections will ultimately accept the results after exploring all the options available to them.“Every election is run differently at the county level, at the precinct level,” McDaniel told CNN’s “State of the Union.” “So we want to make sure it’s run fair and transparently. And then we will let the process play out, and then we will accept the results.”Some Republican candidates have resisted declaring they would accept the results outright.

There exist at least two prominent competing theories about what’s going to happen tomorrow on Election Day. Theory #1: The Dems will blatantly rig everything, right in the open, and dare conservatives to do something about it. (snip) Theory #2: Red wave sweeps the House and Senate, followed by Biden regime terrorism against “disobedient” Americans This second theory seems far more likely to me. It looks like, according to recent polls and the frustration of Americans who are reeling from sky-high food prices, fuel prices and rising violent crime, that a red wave is going to sweep across America, taking...

Last month CDC was slammed for scratching 'women' from monkeypox advice But now it has emerged term has also been grabbed from flu shots infomartion Experts blasted the update as 'absurd' and a 'clearly political move' The terms 'women' and 'woman' have been quietly scrubbed from Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) guidance on flu vaccines during pregnancy. DailyMail.com found all gender-specific terms — also including 'she', 'her' and 'mother' — were wiped from the CDC webpage when it was updated last August. They have been replaced by the gender-neutral terms 'pregnant people', 'their' or erased entirely.

21.8 million excess deaths — that’s the world estimate as of October 24, 2022, dating back from January 1, 2020. That number was sub 5 million before the vaccine rollout, and although confirmed COVID deaths have flattened out, cumulative excess mortality continues to rise. And that estimate of 21.8 million excess deaths could very well be as high as 28 million. “This death tsunami that I’ve been talking about for the last two years — it’s arriving right now,” stressed Dr. Sherri Tenpenny.

OK, let’s see what we have here. As Twitchy reported earlier, Politico Playbook has set the bar pretty high for calling the results of the midterm elections a “red wave.” White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre assures us that not knowing the winners of elections for a few days is “how this is supposed to work.” We’ve been set up over the past few days not to expect any election results on election night and warned that social media will likely be rife with election misinformation. So, when do we actually call time and demand the results? You might have...

The left, particularly in Pennsylvania and Georgia, is talking about how "we must be patient as per the counting of our votes", and that "there might be a delay of days or weeks before the results are known." Unacceptable. This permits the introduction of mail-in ballots that are not legitimate, and thus, aids the left and Democrats in their repeated commission of fraud. We need to get this shit in front of the Supreme Court. This is what I have dug up regarding Election Day. There is no hard Constitutional directive as to the exact day, however, Congress has made...

You know the Leftists know tonight is not going to be good for them when you see Joe Scarborough lose his mind over Arizona’s next Governor – Kari Lake! Scarborough was reacting to Lake’s strong statement that Republicans in Arizona are ready for whatever shenanigans the Democrats may have planned for today’s elections. If there is nothing to what Lake is saying, why would it produce such a visceral reaction in someone like Scarborough? He knows the Democrats are going to have a bad night!. . . .

The U.S. Treasury and the State Department have tacitly asked major U.S. banks, including JPMorgan and Citigroup, not to refuse to cooperate with "certain strategic Russian companies" to minimize the adverse effects of sanctions. In particular, officials urged banks not to refuse to provide "basic services" (money transfers and conversion into dollars) to companies that are not directly under sanctions, such as Gazprom, Uralkali, and PhosAgro. The Biden administration has repeatedly said it wants banks and businesses to keep the money flowing to nonsanctioned sectors of Russia's economy. But the extent of its conversations with the banks hasn't been previously...
