Shalom from Salem

--May the Lord bless us Always. --  Make it clear, the Lord loves His Children, so go forth to celebrate that good promise.  It springs forth as daybreak and it comforts as you sleep.  It engages you every second, and alters your perceptionss of the way things behave.  For they behave for me- the entire work, the world behaves according to MY plan.  So, let that river flow, of living water, let it burst forth, knowing it is the water of life, as he is the bread of life. Give of this knowledge to all you meet.  And know it's good, and do not be afraid.  and give comfort to all, even those who scorn and persecute thee, and call you crazy, and this thing or that.  make it known- the God of Heaven is coming to earth, so get ready.  How will you be in that day to meet your maker in the Flesh.  Bring up every good thing to the forefront, from deep in your belly, through all the muscles in your arms, and body- know they work for ME and I am...

  Make the way plain and succinct.  Plain.  Simple.  Love God, love others.  Do not evil, which brings discomfit.  For my power is now present.  Go and speak and talk of the goodness, the brilliance, that radiates stronger than the sun, blossoms like the flower in spring, radiates like the metal in August.  Find the way.  Circle the path of creation for them.  Just write and not think.  Speak of elocution, in your heart, to sculpt and hew, and  craft the perfection, as Jesus taught,  Sculpt the heart to fit in with My heart.  Like the finest artist, like Michaelangelo, craft with all good science and technology.  Like all good electricity of your heart, fused with my heart, where does such current lie?  where?  bring it about and out like out of a a gun, a canon, an explosion of power and love.  and no more the power of wall street, of high finance.  Make it known.  No more to worship a...

The word of the Lord given on this day 1 July 2018. The Lord loves his chldren, his children are cloaked in splendor.  Blessed is he that comes in the name of the Lord.  Hosanna in the highest.  Blessed is he who speaks in the name of the Lord, Hosanna in the highest.  Many poor and rich money doth bring heat and pain.  Give yourself to us, to me, to God allow me speech. Attend. Give grace fully powered from within. Grant peace and tidings of joy. Plant the vineyard, harvest when ripe. Make it strong.  Grow it well. Speak, speak, and hold back no more.  Release everyone from the bondage of poverty and politics, and grant the exiles safe passage, home.  For the day comes for ever for me to destroy. Not now. Soon though.  Soon.  Send forth the holy out of the land. and curse none.  Grant peace always, for you know the will of the Lord is repentence, the will of the Lord is forgiveness, is shame-ending, is violence ending, and crus...

Let my word be known throughout the Land- DO GOOD ALWAYS- and never hold back any good thing from the poor, the oppressed and the lost in spirit. Hold back no more.  Nothing.  Give it all, if you have to, to make my name and word known.  unto them who refused to hear, now they will hear.  unto them who refused my love, now they will know me. and my love.  Let the showers of blessing spring forth upon your church, and make it known in your heart- the Lord has not forsaken his people- his people have forsaken the Lord!  Know their cry in their hearts- feel it.  It is real.  Let not the stranger go away empty-handed.  The children and parents shall be ONE!  Know M- , and his goodness.  He struggles yes.  Tell him, in steady voice- DRINK NO MORE.  not yelling.  low, steady.  he will hear.  And instead of drinking, he shall drink from my cup instead.  the cup of good grace.  the cup of clear thinki...

Forsake me not says the Lord.  And go about my ways forever.  For my ways are true, and good, and will deliver thee from the enemies hand.  You are strangers in a strange land- as well as those who dwell among you from other lands.  how shalt you deal with them- by accepting them, and guiding them, and teaching them how to do good and right in the world by God's own word.  for you were lost, and now you are found.  you were sinners and you continue to sin- but the Lord says to SIN no more.  Be blameless in my sight says the Lord.  Make the path straight, plain and clear.  for to have other gods is no good for you.  you worship the god of technology, the god of pornography, the god of money, the god of politics and power.  you worship the god of food, the god of drink and drugs, the god of sex. When will you worship me again? asks the Lord, God of your forebears.  the ones who crossed the Jordan, who gave everything to build thi...

May God be with you and keep you.  May Jesus come visit you often. and give you the holy things- the garment, the head scarf, the belt.  Be not afraid, and live! --Forgive me for all I've done wrong, and All I have failed to do Forgiveness is yours, so stay on the path of righteousness, and judge no one, lest you be judged .  Look how you struggle!  They struggle too!  You are no different, you are not above them.  You are the same- they want to hear from someone who is the same as them, not someone on high from a faraway place.  Tell them- you struggle!  You Struggle!  and it is all right, God likes to see you struggle- so never give up, continue the fight for Good.  And it will be Good by you.  How do you love the Fiddler on the Roof so much?  You love people of faith!  that is all!  And when you see faithful people, who love God, you love them.  Because you Love God.  Very key to all relationships....

Speak that I may speak, says the Lord.  Tell of the GOOD things always.  and know that I am with thee.  When you speak, I speak.  When you cry out, I cry out, and make known to their hearts all in my heart.  because of you, I live!  because of ME, you live! Pity none, no one, and live to the fullest.  Make it clear- money doesn't matter! Gold dost  not matter! Gold and all that is, will fail.  then you will either share, or die! so share, now, before the money stops!  Those who need to read this will read.  Make it clear- love one another.  through God's infinite love.  Infinite love.  There is no beginning and no end.  Something that you won't conceive until the end of physical life.  Pour all of God's Gold- God's Love into your heart.  Make it like a globe, like a bowl, and give and mete out to everyone.  through smiles, and good wishes, and saying God bless you, and you are so sweet.  and...

The word of the Lord through St. John-- No time to baptize now- but all the time in the world for prayer.  prayer is the answer, and the spiritual renewal- how did Daniel do it?  prayed 3 times a day.  make it known to many, that is how Daniel survived and thrived in captivity.  is theirs a captivity?  yes, it has come, and that is why the confusion- they don't know they're captive.  and don't know how to respond.  make the way plain unto the Lord- He will give you a response.  and the ways are known to many.  the old, ancient ways.  white people aren't all bad- and black people are on the front lines- many go astray, and come back, astray and come back- Call them and tell them- They shall GO ASTRAY NO MORE!  Many will be looking to them for guidance.  to be that light in the wilderness- where all are gathered under the Lord's Tent, and made one- and No Judgments- Yet, Forgiveness, that the Lord's ways will be made plain-...

For peace is upon you- not as the world knows peace, but as the Lord, God does, through Jesus Christ his son.  Peace be upon you!  Fear not anything.  ANY man nor woman, nor beast in the field.  for your peace that I give you is like a shield and buckler, and a sword that is mighty.  that no hand can stop.  So bring the Peace in your world, in your life, that I may transform them.  ALL they who are weary, and not wanting any more the life for the burdens are great, and deficits are racked up against them.  they fear for only money- getting and giving- even you and your church.  Fear not and live! Give the gift of life as it was on the first day of your birth.  How happy are your parents, even now that they have you!  You were lost now you are found.  Going to church, and saying the Hail Mary!  How happy you have made them.  Call and talk to them often, and let them know how much you love them.  For the Lord has b...

Sure, the voice is shakey, the guy drops the 't' in 'last', but here it is warts and all:

Judaism and Jesus An unconventional look at two very similar religious systems from a Christian perspective.  1- Jesus was and continues to be Jewish.  He was a Rabbi, he had followers, and he practiced faith in God of Israel.  He never denounced his faith, but he did denounce the religious leaders of his day.  Jesus told the religious leaders that they had no faith in God. He caused a riot because they allowed trade in the Temple, and he prophesied that the Temple would fall.  And that he would build it up again.  (What he meant by re-building the Temple is open to debate.  Some interpret it that he was speaking of his own destruction and resurrection.  Others say he will build the Temple again when he returns.  In fact, on a side note, I've been in Catholic bible studies where some people said, "oh, the religious leaders of Jesus's day are just like the Catholic leaders today!"  There's nothing new under Heaven!) 2 - The on...

Thus said the Angel of the Lord: Please be grateful for all you have, all bestowed upon you, and all you possess.  Give thanks and do offerings of thanksgiving.  Make known in the heart, your love of God and His relationship with people.  Always.  Now more than ever, God is sad with man.  And sees him straying from God's heart.  Straying.  ever straying.  and falling into the hands of evil-doers.  Not knowing the danger, the danger of evil.  So, protest and announce the goodness of God.  Always.  At every demonstration, at every gathering, at every meeting.  God is good always! So, go and declare it.  and turn not back to your old ways ever.  God gives each a choice everyday.  Love God, or love something else.  Choose God and choose Life! 

The word of the Lord from May 27, 2016: tell the men, to have their women stop taking the pill for contraception.  the pill causes cancer in women, and brain birth-defects in children- yes the autism.  make it known. have those bright scientists study it.  and men, wrap it up.  with a  condom, yes.  and be a man about it if you're having sex- have the countenance of a man, because sex is a gift from God, and should only be practiced by the stout- hearted, the responsible ones, the ones who are not children in heart, but adults!  so start acting like adults, and not like babies- stop fighting how life is- God set up life this way- get used to it!  you can change some things in your world, yes, but you will not change the foundation of the world, or how the earth moves about the sun- and many other things- so, again, get used to life- and stop fighting life!  whenever there's an air of error, and haughtiness, and vanity, and vainess- eli...

-- How may I glorify your name today, Lord? Remember it is Friday.  the second to last day of the week.  The Sabbath starts tonight for many.  Go and start your Sabbath with Milton, and go to temple Saturday.  How good is it for you?  Sing and dance and be joyful, and give.  as you give, know to give Me, and you will give Me, to those who need Me.  So freely give.  and bring David to temple.  Take him.  Show up at his door at 8:45 and take him to Temple.  Find the way.  that it may be good by you.  and he hides, yes.  and know it is good by him.  for the Lord loves David.  Yes.  and He plants in him a green field that may deliver many of his brethren to the Lord.  He will need to make the choice on his own, however.  You cannot make it for him, nor anyone.  For they all must choose.  Me or not me.  As is said over and over in the Bible.  Choose Life, that you may live!...

 None shall stand in front of the Lord while he works in the Holy Land- yes there are many sides that are divided, that make no small occasion to judge and work evil.  thus, be among you that which is good, and good alone.  who is good?  make it known to them, that the Lord has chosen a way forward, everyone must pay, in weight, and none shall get off free. The more that is given, the better it is for that people. so be ready, and pray for the peace in Jerusalem.  and do not bind any, nor  be afraid, but walk and work in the name of the Lord always.  that the stranger may be welcomed.  Go forth so that all may be multiplied and none pared back.

Behold on this day, the newness has conquered the oldness.  Be not dismayed at any one thing. Go forward and say the Lord lives, the Lord loves all people.  And wants them to return .  All lost sheep shall return.  And are welcomed home.  Be not dismayed. For I give rest and relaxation.  No more shall you work for no cause.  Work for my cause and Mine alone, says the Lord.  Go now and choose good always. Do not harm.  Do no harm. Pretend not to be sanctified.  Be sanctified! Go fully into the presence of the Lord, and tell my words to the People.  The lamb and lion must meet and lay down together.  Peace must reign, and when no peace is found in the land, nor in the hearts of people, then the Lord shall conquer.  Make peace reign.  Work for it today and each day. Work for peace, and not division.  Work for the children, and not the elders.  Work like there is no tomorrow.  Go and work for peace.

Like many people, I grew up with two grandfathers.  I was very close to my maternal grandfather, Grampy, and not as close to my paternal grandfather, Grampa. Grampy was Irish, funny, kind-hearted, and open-minded.  Grampa was Czech, quiet, a bit cold, resolute and traditional.  I learned the most from Czech Grampa, even though Irish Grampy's warmth was the best thing for me as a child. There was one lesson my Czech Grampa taught me, that never left me, and I will carry this lesson to my grave and beyond.  And it's very simple, but the way he taught me, was the bigger lesson.  It's  this:  "Michael, in the winter, always throw sand, salt or ice melt on the front stairs." That's the lesson, here's the story:  When I was about 4 or 5, my family and I were visiting Czech Grampa and Grandma in Northampton one cold winter day.  Their house was lovely.  A tidy and traditional place where we'd always go for Christmas and Thanksgiving and...

"Living Biblically" is a new sitcom on CBS this season, and the single most amazing thing about it, is that it is an actual sitcom on a major national television network in this day and age. It's refreshing, lively, and the religious characters- priest, rabbi- are actually strong, smart people.  The main character, Chip, is the most interesting, and probably the most difficult to write for, and perhaps, to play.  Kooky, goofy, and off-the-wall are adjectives that should never describe him.  The producers and actor should really put all their energy into making him quirky, smart, charming and quizzical. This is a delicate dance, no doubt. Here's some other thoughts about making the show better-- each episode should open with Chip reading a Bible verse- and Chip can kind of have a humorous monologue about it, (or dialogue with God) and then the show is based on that verse (as is currently the situation).  And at the end, Chip should reflect on the episode's t...

be not dismayed at anything that happens today.  for I am with thee, says the Lord.  Keep a clear head, and heart.  and Make it One in the Land.  Turn to the Lord for he alone is GOOD.  He alone is God.  Be not afraid.  I go before you always.  Follow me.  Here is what you shall say in your heart- from your heart to them who have no heart for me.  The Lord is asking you to return unto him.  He wants all of his children home, in his glorious kingdom.  Each life is precious unto the Lord.  even them who are homeless and mentally ill.  They are precious.  Give of yourself to help them always.  and Know you are helping the Lord.  Do not turn them aside, and do not stand in their way.  Provide the way- as Jesus did- unto the Lord's own heart, and it will be good for you, for them, and for the world. - please give me guidance on the war footing of the US It is a disgusting thing that happens.  T...

Monday nights at 9:30 PM EST, a new CBS sitcom about a person who decides to live more by the Bible. I will let you know my thoughts tomorrow.  It's on in 15 minutes. Peace https://www.cbs.com/shows/living-biblically/video/

Adam- the first human. Anytime I eat fruit, like an apple or orange, I sometimes think back on how God created it.  These fruits are a perfect example of God's love for us.  The seeds of the apple are tucked deep by the core so we can enjoy a crisp, juicy bite of apple.  And it's amazing something so crisp can be so juicy at the same time. Then there's the orange.  God has created a pre-sliced fruit that we only need to peel to enjoy it's utter splendor and deliciousness.  Sometimes when I eat a particularly sweet, juicy orange- I say, "God, you really knocked it out of the park with this one.  My, my, my."  But how would God know how good these fruits- and his entire creation- would be to us lowly, mortal humans?  This is where Adam plays a role.  I think Adam was God's beta-tester.  God makes a banana- gives it to Adam and says "what do you think about this?" Adam: "It's grand." God: "here's a potato" Adam:  ...

Thus says the Lord, I have not come to destroy but to renew, revive, redeem. make it known.  destruction is never good, and if the destruction comes, then the rebuilding is difficult, with tears, mourning and sackcloth and ashes.  but say unto them, the Lord lives, the ways of the Lord are right and true, and turn from your debased ways, the ignorance and disgust of your heart and mind- the imaginations have run away to all the grotesque evil and disgust.  no longer are the true fruits desired, because the subtleness of God's glory and truth is ignored.  Make good on your promise to me, says the Lord.  Make good an true your words unto me.  that you will put away the selfishness, and only and always be giving, not as a martyr, but as a warrior of God, who will never fail in the face of persecution, in the face of destruction, in the face of losing everything you hold dear. -- no one liked my words (online on facebook and instagram) about you, so direct...
