Taking Care of the Blindness will let you take Care of the Rest. Sometimes when I am thinking I have strange ideas that pop into my head. Ideas that help me relate the way I understand things and how a silly Idea can help explain something. Well I saw a blind man walking down a street and I saw him miss step a curb and trip and fall, I saw a car almost hit him. I watched as he bumped into a few people. I saw him miss his bus because he could not run and catch it as he was only about a minute to late. I saw him drop some change and after several minutes of feeling around for it on the ground, he found his money but in the mean time he did not see the mud puddle on the ground so he got very dirty. His Bus came he put a $100.00 dollar bill in the moneychanger on accident but no one noticed until he was short $100.00 when buying groceries at the store. What a miserable day. Now you might say the right thing to do would be, to put better handicap curbs on all our streets. You say people need to be more courteous and watch where they are going. You might say people need to help more when they see someone blind and come to their aid. You may think that the Bus Company should be more aware of the needs of a blind person and you might even say if you are blind, you should get free food. Now as I was pondering these things, I thought about how this man could really be helped the best and that would be to restore his sight, if we could do this then he would see the Curb, watch out for the people, catch his bus, avoid the mud, ,have the correct change and could by his groceries. Well in our life we deal with many sins and people think the answer is this or that or your not doing enough repenting and my though on this whole matter come up to the same answer as the blind man solution. Repent Change your mind about Jesus and your blindness will be healed. You will see lifes Curbs and step over them, you will see the enemy and avoid him, you will see the things that defile you and not mess with them, you will be in the places you need to be when you need to be there and you will have every thing you need to be equipped for where you need to go. We need to understand until we can see we are no better off than a blind man, but when Jesus comes into our life we are healed and we can see. The big issues that know body seems to want to deal with is the blindness when we have the Cure, Jesus! If we receive His cure for our condition then it will be obvious that we can see because our life will show it. The big picture is that we need to See and there is only one person who can cure blindness and that would be Jesus Christ.
Story By Me. I used to be Blind but now I see.

What is Fleecing the Flock? You know how are we to judge who is fleecing the Flock in our day and age? I will not drop names but I know it cost lest than a dollar to mass-produce DVD & CD and this includes all the Design work, cover art, plastic case and insert. I see many people charging 10.00 to 150.00 for a set of DVD’s that cost less than a dollar to produce.
Should we charge for what we have freely been given? And if so where do we get such High prices? As Children of God, should we really support those who practice religious extortion? Should we even listen to someone who tries to justify charging any brother or sister in Christ such a high price for his or her divine revelation?
So what is your opinion? What is fleecing the flock? Should we draw lines or not? Should we call Bad conduct OK?
What about Tiething is it even Taught in the New Testement? Is it ok for our Pastors to teach somthing thats not in or under the New Covenant? Should they not teach what the Apostle Paul Teaches? Is it ok for them to justify what they say or say that well 10% is a good place to start? isn't it better to say that being led by the Holy Spirit is the best place to start?
If we are to live by faith does faith say give 10% or does faith say let me be led by the Spirit to give less or give more. Why not put a box in the back of the church for offerings and have faith that those who are fed at that building will support it? Why pass the plate and play on peoples guilt or make people feel bad and not come to Church?
What has happend to the Churches of America? Preacher were is the Faith? If your preaching truth dont you have faith that God will put it into the hearts of His followers to support your ministry?
Share your openions? I am intresteed to see what kind of responces will be given.

Have you ever wondered why God said Dont Eat Pigs, Hawks and Fish with no Scales?
Here is an excerpt from the book of Barnabus that never made it in the bible. Its a fun read.
Chap. X. — Spiritual Significance of the Precepts of Moses Respecting Different Kinds of Food.
Now, wherefore did Moses say, "Thou shalt not eat the swine, nor the eagle, nor the hawk, nor the raven, nor any fish which is not possessed of scales?"95 He embraced three doctrines in his mind [in doing so]. Moreover, the Lord saith to them in Deuteronomy, "And I will establish my ordinances among this people." (Deu_4:1) Is there then not a command of God they should not eat [these things]? There is, but Moses spoke with a spiritual reference.96 For this reason he named the swine, as much as to say, "Thou shalt not join thyself to men who resemble swine." For when they live in pleasure, they forget their Lord; but when they come to want, they acknowledge the Lord. And [in like manner] the swine, when it has eaten, does not recognize its master; but when hungry it cries out, and on receiving food is quiet again. "Neither shalt thou eat," says he "the eagle, nor the hawk, nor the kite, nor the raven." "Thou shalt not join thyself," he means, "to such men as know not how to procure food for themselves by labour and sweat, but seize on that of others in their iniquity, and although wearing an aspect of simplicity, are on the watch to plunder others."97 So these birds, while they sit idle, inquire how they may devour the flesh of others, proving themselves pests [to all] by their wickedness. "And thou shalt not eat," he says, "the lamprey, or the polypus, or the cuttlefish." He means, "Thou shalt not join thyself or be like to such men as are ungodly to the end, and are condemned98 to death." In like manner as those fishes, above accursed, float in the deep, not swimming [on the surface] like the rest, but make their abode in the mud which lies at the bottom. Moreover, "Thou shall not," he says, "eat the hare." Wherefore? "Thou shall not be a corrupter of boys, nor like unto such."99 Because the hare multiplies, year by year, the places of its conception; for as many years as it lives so many100 it has. Moreover, "Thou shall not eat the hyena." He means, "Thou shall not be an adulterer, nor a corrupter, nor be like to them that are such." Wherefore? Because that animal annually changes its sex, and is at one time male, and at another female. Moreover, he has rightly detested the weasel. For he means, "Thou shalt not be like to those whom we hear of as committing wickedness with the mouth,101 on account of their uncleanness; nor shall thou be joined to those impure women who commit iniquity with the mouth. For this animal conceives by the mouth." Moses then issued102 three doctrines concerning meats with a spiritual significance; but they received them according to fleshly desire, as if he had merely spoken of [literal] meats. David, however, comprehends the knowledge of the three doctrines, and speaks in like manner: "Blessed is the man who hath not walked in the counsel of the ungodly," (Psa_1:1) even as the fishes [referred to] go in darkness to the depths [of the sea]; "and hath not stood in the way of sinners," even as those who profess to fear the Lord, but go astray like swine; "and hath not sat in the seat of scorners,"103 even as those birds that lie in wait for prey. Take a full and firm grasp of this spiritual104 knowledge. But Moses says still further, "Ye shall eat every animal that is cloven-footed and ruminant." What does he mean? [The ruminant animal denotes him] who, on receiving food, recognizes Him that nourishes him, and being satisfied by Him,105 is visibly made glad. Well spake [Moses], having respect to the commandment. 144 What, then, does he mean? That we ought to join ourselves to those that fear the Lord, those who meditate in their heart on the commandment which they have received, those who both utter the judgments of the Lord and observe them, those who know that meditation is a work of gladness, and who ruminate106 upon the word of the Lord. But what means the cloven-footed? That the righteous man also walks in this world, yet looks forward to the holy state107 [to come]. Behold how well Moses legislated. But how was it possible for them to understand or comprehend these things? We then, rightly understanding his commandments,108 explain them as the Lord intended. For this purpose He circumcised our ears and our hearts, that we might understand these things.
