Jesus Christ Return

A thief does not come up to a house and knock on the door. Robbery is something that happens suddenly and at a time people do not expect it to occur. What about us in terms of Christ’s return? Should we not be ready? Do we not know the times and the seasons? Yes, we do. We have every reason to be able to be prepared should the “thief” arrive, that is, should Christ return.  ~John W. Ritenbaugh

1 Thessalonians 5:2

2for you know very well that the day of the Lord will come like a thief in the night.

We are close to the return of Jesus Christ; the world is filled with all kinds of signs of the end. They wear at us and worry us. We see them on television and hear them on the radio—everywhere we look, we see signs of the times. It is a stressful situation to be in, and still, Christ does not come. We say, “How long, Lord, will it be ’til You come?”

We can become neglectful. We can let our focus slip. We need to be exhorted and stirred.

Christ gives the first-century church a warning in Revelation 2:1-7, His message to the Ephesian church. He points out their problem. He gives them advice as to what they should do, and then at the end, He provides incentive for them to correct the situation that they had allowed themselves to deteriorate into.  ~John W. Ritenbaugh

Revelation 2:1-7

A Letter to the Church in Ephesus

1“To the messenger of the church in Ephesus, write:

The one who holds the seven stars in his right hand, the one who walks among the seven gold lamp stands, says: 2I know what you have done—how hard you have worked and how you have endured. I also know that you cannot tolerate wicked people. You have tested those who call themselves apostles but are not apostles. You have discovered that they are liars. 3You have endured, suffered trouble because of my name, and have not grown weary. 4However, I have this against you: The love you had at first is gone. 5Remember how far you have fallen. Return to me and change the way you think and act, and do what you did at first. I will come to you and take your lamp stand from its place if you don’t change. 6But you have this in your favor—you hate what the Nicolaitans are doing. I also hate what they’re doing.

7“Let the person who has ears listen to what the Spirit says to the churches. I will give the privilege of eating from the tree of life, which stands in the paradise of God, to everyone who wins the victory.

Lawmakers to Obama: Correct reference to US motto as ‘In God We Trust’…

Members of Congress on Monday called on President Obama to issue a public correction after he incorrectly labeled E pluribus unum the U.S.’s motto in a speech last month, rather than “In God We Trust.” The lawmakers, members of the Congressional Prayer Caucus, also said the president was making “a p…    Read Full Story

WE HAVE COME TO TAKE OUR GOVERNMENT BACK

“I HAVE A MESSAGE FROM THE TEA PARTY: WE HAVE COME TO TAKE OUR GOVERNMENT BACK”

Trey Grayson, Kentucky, Secretary of State, was backed by Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell and former Vice President Dick Cheney, was soundly defeated by Tea Party favorite Rand Paul. In Pennsylvania, five-term Sen. Arlen Specter, who ditched the Republican Party last year to save his career, ended up being sent into retirement anyway by Rep. Joe Sestak in the Democratic primary.

And in Arkansas, Sen. Blanche Lincoln was forced into a runoff against Lt. Gov. Bill Halter after she failed to win the majority of votes in the Democratic primary.

The results of Tuesday’s races sent a clear message to Washington that the anti-incumbent wave that has gripped the nation over the past year isn’t losing steam.

The latest primaries were closely watched for clues to how angry the electorate is about a weak economy, record-high deficits, two ongoing wars and a Washington environment that critics say favors rhetoric over results.

If recent elections highlight an undercurrent of voter anger, it remains to be seen how that anger will affect November’s midterm elections, when Republicans will challenge Democrats for control of both chambers in Congress.

Yet one thing seems certain — these are uncertain times for career politicians!  (READ MORE)

Congressman: White House Job Offer to Sestak May Be an ‘Impeachable’ Offense

Original Story: FOXNews.com

Rep. Joe Sestak’s allegation that the White House offered him a job to drop out of the Pennsylvania Senate primary race against Arlen Specter is a crime that could lead to the impeachment of President Obama, Rep. Darrell Issa said.

But the decision by the Pennsylvania congressman not to elaborate on a so-called deal also could become a political problem as Sestak tries for the U.S. Senate seat.

“It’s very clear that allegation is one that everyone from Arlen Spector to Dick Morris has said is in fact a crime, and could be impeachable,” said Issa, who is threatening to file an ethics compliant if Sestak doesn’t provide more details about the alleged job offer.

Sestak, a former vice admiral in the Navy, first alleged in February that the White House offered him a high-ranking position in the administration last summer if he would sit out the primary against Specter, who won the backing of the White House and state Democratic leaders for switching parties.

The allegation is considered one of the factors that helped him defeat Specter, who was viewed as unscrupulous in doing whatever he could to keep his seat, including changing his party to win White House support for an uphill re-election battle.

But now, Sestak has to go into the general election, where his opponent, former Republican Rep. Pat Toomey, is willing to use the topic as referendum on both Sestak’s and Obama’s credibility.

“Congressman Sestak should tell the public everything he knows about the job he was offered, and who offered it,” Republican Senate candidate Pat Toomey said in a written statement. “To do otherwise will only continue to raise questions and continue to be a needless distraction in this campaign.”

And Democratic Illinois Sen. Dick Durbin, a close ally of the president, said Sestak can’t continue to lay out the charge without backing it up.

“At some point, Congressman Sestak needs to make it clear what happened,” he said.

Issa said this allegation is bigger than the Senate race.

“For Joe Sestak, he can dance around it and he may or may not be a senator,” he said. “But for the White House, this problem’s not going away. Adm. Sestak is in fact a very reliable source.”

Ann Marie McAvoy, a former federal prosecutor, said the White House could have a problem on its hands depending on what the facts show.

“If they were simply offering him a job because they thought he was a qualified person for it and there was no request made that he in essence drop out of the race, it would be different,” she told Fox News. “This is why there really needs to be an in depth investigation. There needs to be witness interviews and so on to figure out what happened, who said what, what were the other circumstances surrounding it.”

Issa has called on the Justice Department to appoint a special prosecutor but Attorney General Eric Holder has said that won’t be necessary.

“We assure you that the Department of Justice takes very seriously allegations of criminal conduct by public officials,” Assistant Attorney General Ronald Weich told Issa in a letter. “All such matters are reviewed carefully by career prosecutors and law enforcement agents, and appropriate action, if warranted, is taken.”

Weich said a special prosecutor won’t be needed because the Justice Department “has a long history of handling investigations of high level officials professionally and independently, without the need to appoint a special counsel.”

But McAvoy said any allegation of wrongdoing shouldn’t be left to the Justice Department to decide.

“Someone in the administration had this conversation which means that would be the person mostly likely who committed the crime if there is a crime,” she said. “So you have the people who are representing the people who potentially committed the crime are making the determinations as to whether anything wrong happened. That’s not the way it’s supposed to happen.”

Issa compared any potential cover-up to the Watergate scandal of the Nixon era.the White House Tuesday of a cover up similar to the Watergate scandal.

“It’s not about what was done wrong. It’s about the cover up,” Issa told Fox News. “And right now, there’s a cover up going on at the White House 10 weeks after the allegation.

Obama on trial – May 14, 2010

When Barack Hussein Obama put his hat into the ring for the Democratic presidential spot, many people started to rise in anger. One of them was Doctor/Pastor James David Manning of New York City.

Pastor Manning had been gathering information about Obama that he found to be suspicious. He realized that the mainstream media wasn’t reporting on it, therefore, he began reporting on it himself. YouTube videos of Pastor Manning about an Obama presidency spread throughout the country. He told of some of the dubious information that involved the Jeremiah Wright church Obama attended.

Manning and his associates took many months of investigation and planning to set up a Constitutionally-legal trial. The trial will meet all federal and state judicial standards and practices. It will be held in a New York City Harlem Church just seven blocks from Columbia University. New York City has been petitioned to close off four blocks around the church to accommodate the expected 30-thousand to 70-thousand attendees.

The first supposedly black president goes on trial for CIA involvement for sedition and treason.The trial is set to begin May 14, 2010, and last about seven days. According to Manning the trial will not be cancelled nor postponed.

There will be large TV screens set in different areas around Columbia University and other areas for all there to witness. Members of the American Grand Jury will be present, along with a judge whose name is left secret until a time closer to the trial. Many attorneys will also be present and dozens of witnesses have already been subpoenaed or will be subpoenaed to be there.

Some of those who have been subpoenaed include the following:

  • Marcus Branchli

Former Editor of The Wall Street Journal

  • Condoleeza Rice

Former Secretary of State Secretary of State

  • Zbigniew Brzezinski

Center for Strategic and International Studies

  • George Stephanopoulos

Good Morning America

  • Rod Blagojevich

Former Illinois Governor

  • Phil Boerner

California Veterinary Medical Association

  • Michael Ira Sovern

Former Chancellor and Professor of Law and President Emeritus at Columbia University

  • Wayne Allyn Root

Root For America

  • Sohale Siddiqi
  • Douglas A. Chalmers
  • Andrew Nathan
  • James W. Morley
  • Richard Prous
  • Flora S. David

Professors of Political Science at Columbia University

More about the trial can be obtained at www.atlah.org which is home of the radio talk program The Manning Report. Also, to either participate as a witness or anonymous witness, one may phone 1-877-777-0734 or 212-427-2839.
