Thank you, very interesting.
Have a question - are all Ashkenazes atheists, or did some venture to Christianity?

I am sure some did and have, but blood tends to go in certain directions. All souls are free to make a choice for good and evil.
By their fruits they should be known.
The Bible warns;
Israel was to be a servant people, and a blessing unto all nations.
Slapping never ending "debt" through usury is not a blessing.
Revelation 2:9 I know thy works, and tribulation, and poverty, (but thou art rich) and I know the blasphemy of them which say they are Jews, and are not, but are the synagogue of Satan.
Revelation 3:9 Behold, I will make them of the synagogue of Satan, which say they are Jews, and are not, but do lie;
behold, I will make them to come and worship before thy feet, and to know that I have loved thee.
Matthew 7:18 - A good tree can't produce evil fruit, neither can a corrupt tree produce good fruit.

This is the prayer from 8/8/15
No doubt you have heard the expression, 'the stillness was deafening.' That is how it was this morning, no dogs barking in the distance, no planes going overhead. Is that what we will experience just before His return? It has been said that animals sense an impending earthquake. Their senses alert them to the movement of the earth far beneath them. How sensitive are we to our surroundings, to the changes before our very eyes? Christians are stirring with an anticipation that Jesus will be returning soon. We know what His Word says, but are we fulfilling our purpose, are we about His business?
Statements, questions, but what are the answers? Are the answers so simple they become lost in our quest for knowledge? Is our purpose to be about His business by conducting ourselves as believers? Americans are the most generous people on earth, but that is easy when you have the protection of enough food, and shelter. What will we be like when all that changes, and it is coming. The 'birthing pains,' deep within the earth will erupt, destruction and chaos will follow. When that happens, many will turn from Him saying, "A good God would not let this happen to good people." Are we really 'good people?'
Military men, who have faced the enemy, have an understanding of the challenges that lie ahead. Women, children, the elderly will struggle. There will be absolute disaster in big cities, we country folk will not go unscathed - so be aware. A dark prayer, but remember, it is always darkest before dawn - He will bring the dawn, the dawning of a new world, a new existence. When you are filled with fear it is hard to remember His promises, but that will be when your faith can raise you up, raise you up to fight again. Pray for that strength, that faith, that purpose. We pray in the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Ghost. Amen.

Verse of the Day for Wednesday, June 28, 2017:
Blessings crown the head of the righteous, but violence overwhelms the mouth of the wicked. â Proverbs 10:6
Thoughts on Today's Verse....
Righteousness brings us great blessings. Violence becomes its own vile reward, bringing to those who use it what they have done to others. So what's our choice? Blessing or violence? Encouragement or a foul mouth? So what's the real choice? Letting God define character and not someone else.
My Prayer...
Father, I want to live your life to please you, to bring your Kingdom a blessing, and to help others see that violence is destructive to themselves, to others, and also to the little children. In Jesus' name I pray. Amen.

By keeping Jesus in your heart and soul, you're already in a better place than those who choose otherwise. Keep the faith no matter how bad things seem.

Those who lead little children astray Matthew 18:6 "If anyone causes one of these little ones--those who believe in me--to stumble, it would be better for them to have a large millstone hung around their neck and to be drowned in the depths of the sea." In Jesus name we ask that You save the children, Lord. Amen

Praise the Lord for those "I AM's." Even if you fail, He will help you back up, have faith.

Amen and Amen and that is going to include a lot of school teachers who are promoting the evolution narrative over and over to our young children and teaching them that there is no God. I truly pity them for not having the courage to tell these young children the truth about creation and there truly is a God that loves them.

Secular, Progressive teachers leading our children like 'Pied Piper' to the lost mountain. The Lord's word will condemn them, but what about the children?
I prayer they are influenced at home in a different way.

I hope that these children are being drugged at home and by that I mean that they are being drugged to Sunday school and being drugged to church and if they are part of one of those old time churches then they would be drugged to Sunday night service and they would be drugged to Wednesday night service as well. and the mid week service could be either Awanas or something similar.
