Humility: A Gateway to Blessing!


Humility: A Gateway to Blessing

A compilation

Download Audio (9.89MB)

Humility is like a magnet that attracts favor, attracts blessing. The more humble you become, the more magnetic you become! A humble spirit attracts honor, attracts favor, attracts blessing. A prideful spirit repels it.

When you humble yourself, the Holy Spirit does the heavy lifting. Humility allows God to do what God does. Humility is the key to spiritual authority: more humility = more authority.

If you want to see God move in powerful ways, all you need to do is stay out of God’s way. How? Humility! Staying on your knees is the way to stay out of the way! Or to say it another way, humility is the best way to get out of the way of what God wants to do!

God can accomplish more in one day than you can accomplish in a thousand years, but you’ve got to posture yourself in humility. You’ve got to stay humble, stay hungry. Getting on your knees is the surest and fastest and truest way to get where God wants you to go.

Hit your knees!—Mark Batterson

*

God descends to the humble as waters flow down from the hills into the valleys.—Tikhon

*

There is no room for God in him who is full of himself.—Martin Buber

*

When you are humble, you enjoy the blessings of My love, joy, peace, faith, patience, understanding, and the fruits of My Spirit in your life. These bless you in your interactions with others, and smooth over the rough edges. They make your relationship with Me more alive and real, because you realize how much it is My blessing in your life that gives you happiness, rather than anything you could work up yourself.—Jesus, speaking in prophecy

*

The parable of the Pharisee and publican is a sermon in brief on humility and self-praise. The Pharisee, given over to self-conceit, wrapped up in himself, seeing only his own self-righteous deeds, catalogues his virtues before God, despising the poor publican who stands afar off. He exalts himself, gives himself over to self-praise, is self-centered, and goes away unjustified, condemned and rejected by God.

The publican sees no good in himself …, does not presume to lift his eyes to heaven, but with downcast countenance smites himself on his breast, and cries out, “God be merciful to me, a sinner.”

Our Lord with great preciseness gives us the sequel of the story of these two men, one utterly devoid of humility, the other utterly submerged in … lowliness of mind.

“I tell you this man went down to his house justified rather than the other; for every one that exalteth himself shall be abased; and he that humbleth himself shall be exalted.”1

God puts a great price on humility of heart. It is good to be clothed with humility as with a garment. It is written, “God resisteth the proud, but giveth grace to the humble.”2That which brings the praying soul near to God is humility of heart. That which gives wings to prayer is lowliness of mind. Pride, self-esteem, and self-praise effectually shut the door of prayer. He who would come to God must approach Him with self hid from his eyes. He must not be puffed up with self-conceit, nor be possessed with an overestimate of his virtues and good works.

Humility is a rare Christian grace, of great price in the courts of heaven, entering into and being an inseparable condition of effectual praying. It gives access to God when other qualities fail. Its full portrait is found only in the Lord Jesus Christ. In our Lord’s teaching, humility has such prominence in His system of religion, and is such a distinguishing feature of His character, that to leave it out of His lesson on prayer would be very unseemly, would not comport with His character, and would not fit into His religious system.

Happy are they who have no righteousness of their own to plead and no goodness of their own of which to boast. Humility flourishes in the soil of a true and deep sense of our sinfulness and our nothingness. Nowhere does humility grow so rapidly and shine so brilliantly as when it confesses all sin, and trusts all grace. “I the chief of sinners am, but Jesus died for me.” That is praying ground, the ground of humility, low down, far away seemingly, but in reality brought nigh by the blood of the Lord Jesus Christ. God dwells in the lowly places. He makes such lowly places really the high places to the praying soul.

Humility is an indispensable requisite of true prayer. It must be an attribute, a characteristic of prayer. Humility must be in the praying character as light is in the sun. Prayer has no beginning, no ending, no being, without humility. As a ship is made for the sea, so prayer is made for humility, and so humility is made for prayer.

Humility is not abstraction from self, nor does it ignore thought about self. Humility is born by looking at God and His holiness. A true nobleness and greatness are in humility. It knows and reveres the inestimable riches of the cross, and the humiliations of Jesus Christ.

Humility is much more than the absence of vanity and pride. It is a positive quality, a substantial force, which energizes prayer. Humility springs from a lowly estimate of ourselves and of our deservings. The Pharisee prayed not, though well schooled and habituated to pray, because there was no humility in his praying. The publican prayed, though banned by the public and receiving no encouragement from church sentiment, because he prayed in humility. Humility is just feeling little because we are little. Humility is realizing our unworthiness because we are unworthy, feeling and declaring ourselves sinners because we are sinners. Kneeling well becomes us as the attitude of prayer, because it betokens humility.

There is no Christ without humility. There is no praying without humility. If thou wouldst learn well the art of praying, then learn well the lesson of humility.—E. M. Bounds

*

The sacrifices of God are a broken spirit; a broken and contrite heart, O God, you will not despise.3

*

Though the Lord be high, yet hath he respect unto the lowly: but the proud he knoweth afar off.4

*

For this is what the high and lofty One says—he who lives for ever, whose name is holy: “I live in a high and holy place, but also with him who is contrite and lowly in spirit, to revive the spirit of the lowly and to revive the heart of the contrite.”5

*

By humility and the fear of the Lord are riches, and honor, and life.6

Israel´s Ultra-Orthodox Jews Face Military Draft!


Israeli Coalition Divided on Military Conscription for Ultra-Orthodox Jews and Arabs

By Isabel Kershner, NY Times, June 29, 2012


JERUSALEM—Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s supersize coalition was showing its first serious signs of stress on Friday in its quest for a more universal draft system in Israel.

An effort that has so far focused on phasing out mass army exemptions for ultra-Orthodox Jews suddenly became more charged as right-wing nationalist parties decided to press the equally—if not more—contentious issue of national or civilian service for Israel’s Arab citizens.

The issue is highly provocative. While most Jewish Israelis, and Druze men, are conscripted at 18, Israeli Arabs are generally not required to perform mandatory military service, though they may volunteer.

Many view the years of military service and reserve duty a burden, but the experience is often a requirement in the job market. and it affords certain social and economic benefits.

Arab citizens are entitled to equal rights in Israel but, like minorities in many countries, many experience discrimination. And many Israeli Arabs identify in terms of nationality with the Palestinians in the West Bank, East Jerusalem and the Gaza Strip more than with the country’s Jewish Zionist majority.

There is still a month to go before the deadline by which the government must come up with an alternative to the Tal Law, passed 2002, which formalized exemptions for tens of thousands of ultra-Orthodox Jews engaged in religious studies. Israel’s Supreme Court declared it unconstitutional and invalidated it in February.

But as the government struggles to come up with a new formula for a more equitable distribution of the burdens of citizenship, Mr. Netanyahu, whose recently expanded coalition commands a majority in the 120-seat Parliament, finds himself increasingly squeezed between the secular and religious forces in his government.

Many analysts here saw the political wrangling as a sign of Mr. Netanyahu’s weakness and predicted that it was unlikely to result in any drastic change regarding the draft.

“All that’s left is to be amazed by Benjamin Netanyahu, whom many call the king of Israel, who managed get into this mess,” Ofer Shelah, a well-known commentator, wrote on Friday in the Hebrew-language newspaper Maariv. After Mr. Netanyahu chose to stave off early elections by expanding his coalition, he finds himself “with elections ahead of him and not behind him, and with coalition party members who only have their eyes on the ballot boxes,” Mr. Shelah wrote.

Mr. Netanyahu’s newest partner, the secular and centrist Kadima Party, is demanding a tougher line on drafting the ultra-Orthodox than the strictly religious parties in the coalition will probably tolerate. One Kadima legislator warned on Friday that the issue could tear his party apart.

Meanwhile, the secular, ultranationalist Yisrael Beiteinu Party led by Avigdor Lieberman, the foreign minister, is championing the cause of obligatory service for Israeli Arabs, who make up about 20 percent of the population of 7.8 million. Mr. Netanyahu is in favor of encouraging more Arabs to volunteer for civilian national service, in a gradual process and in dialogue with the Arab community, but he is opposed to compulsory service for Arabs, an aide said.

On Thursday, Mr. Netanyahu spoke to Arab legislators by telephone and told them it was imperative to gradually increase the share of all sectors of society in the burdens of citizenship, according to officials in the prime minister’s office. But they added that it should be done in a phased manner and in coordination with Arab representatives.

One of the Arab legislators, Ahmad Tibi, told Israel Radio on Friday that Arab citizens were not willing to be the victims of a coalition war among the Jews. He said that before talking about equally sharing the burden, there had to be equality for everyone—in infrastructure, in budgets, in land and in education.

Ten Habits of Grateful People- Even In Tough Times!

Ten Habits of Grateful People … Even In Tough Times

Stepcase Lifehack, 28 Jun 2012

“Gratitude is the fairest blossom which springs from the soul.”—Henry Ward Beecher (1813-1887)

It is no secret that gratefulness is correlated with life satisfaction and happiness. Countless research findings, particularly in the rapidly emerging field of Positive Psychology, have shown that gratefulness and life satisfaction go hand in hand. Those who tend to be more grateful rather than bitter are generally more positive, more satisfied with their lives, and will be able to see the silver lining even on cloudy days.

Despite this intuitive understanding of the importance of gratefulness, all too often when life throws us curve balls, this grateful mindset all but disappears. It certainly is easier to be grateful when you are on a winning team and things go in your favor. However, the true test of resiliency and gratefulness is when life does not go your way.

No matter what happens to us, if we “dig deep” we often can find that there is really plenty to be thankful for in our lives. The following are the 10 top habits of people who remain steadfast in their ability to be grateful, and can temper the blows life gives them with an unwavering “attitude of gratitude” mindset:

1. Grateful people don’t expect that life is going to give them everything they deserve. They realize that good things do not always happen to good people, and they have given up the notion that life “owes them” anything more than it can offer. Cancer, afflictions, and even the death of innocent people are unfortunately part of life. The question is not if life is unfair, but can we move on in spite of it.

2. They do not have preconditions to their happiness. They do not think “If this happens” only then “I will be happy.” They understand happiness is not coming from the outside, but from within. They focus more on their adjustment to what happens rather than try to change what cannot be changed. They do not attempt to micromanage people and things in their lives that are not really in their control.

3. People who are grateful have realized that you cannot have the rainbow without the rain. Furthermore, they know that you don’t have honey without the bee, and you can’t have the rose without the thorns. They see rainy days as a normal part of life rather than an aberration, and learn from the rain rather than just wait for it to go away. They admire the beauty of the rose even though it has its thorny side, and savor the sweet taste of honey even though the bee can sting. Realizing you cannot have one without the other, they are grateful for both.

4. Grateful people have hope. No matter what happens, hope is not lost. They realize the future is uncertain, and while they plan for it, they do not try to micromanage outcomes that are beyond their sphere of influence. They take comfort in the fact that once the sun sets, it rises the next day. They have faith that there is more to life.

5. Those who are steeped in bitterness and grudges have no space in their heart to be grateful. Forgiving your spouse for not being as understanding as you would have been, forgiving your children for making choices that would not have been your own, and giving up the grudge of a slight or injustice from a friend, are all parts of the gratitude equation. Forgive others for not acting or being like you had hoped. Carrying the torch of bitterness is going to hurt you more than them. As Buddha said, “Holding onto anger is like grasping a hot coal with the intent of throwing it at someone else; you are the one who gets burned.”

6. People who are grateful know that a grateful attitude takes work. Gratefulness does not always come naturally, especially in the most challenging times. In such times, grateful people work on keeping a good perspective.

7. Grateful people have healthy thinking habits. They go by the motto, “Think Straight—Feel Great!” They can separate their perceptions from the facts and separate rational from victim-like irrational ways of thinking. For example, they will replace victim self-talk such as “They make me so mad” to victor self-talk such as “I was mad when they did that.”

8. Grateful people are flexible in their thinking. People who think flexibly are at an advantage in life, as flexibility is the key to growth and wisdom. They don’t cling stubbornly with ways of thinking that do not work, and do not need to see a shift in attitude as meaning a personal defeat and referendum of how wrong they used to be. They realize they can choose their perceptions and have a right to change their minds. With this mentality, the doors that close yield others that now become open.

9. People who love to learn tend to be grateful. Each setback or unforeseen life event offers us lessons, and grateful people focus more on the lessons they can get out of each situation rather than the disappointments. Even mistakes and failures are seen as learning opportunities.

10. Grateful people define their self worth by their determination and their dreams, not their regrets and disappointments. A grateful mindset has no room for excessive self-recrimination and low self esteem. People who are stuck in past regrets and see themselves as losers in life or as having failed badly in even certain areas of their lives will not be able to be truly grateful. Positive self esteem sets the foundation for gratefulness.

How about starting a Gratefulness campaign in your own life? Start now by writing down at least 10 things you are thankful for.

Dreams & Visions Moving Muslims to Christ!


Dreams, Visions Moving Muslims to Christ


Chris Mitchell and Julie Stahl, CBN News Jerusalem, June 20, 2012

JERUSALEM, Israel—Several years ago, Ali took the Muslim pilgrimage to Mecca known as Hajj.


But the trip became more of a spiritual journey than he could ever imagine.


“That night I saw Jesus in a dream. First, Jesus touched my forehead with his finger. And after touching me, He said, ‘You belong to me,’” Ali recalled.


“And then He touched me above my heart,” he continued. “‘You have been saved, follow me. You belong to me,’ he said.”


Ali’s story in Mecca was told and dramatized in a DVD called “More Than Dreams.”


“I decided I’m not going to finish the Hajj, the pilgrimage. Whatever it takes, I’m going to follow that voice,” he explained.


The film documents and dramatizes Ali’s story and several other Muslims who came to faith in Jesus through a dream or vision.


“We’re seeing that all around. We’re hearing about people that have never even thought about Jesus as savior,” Tom Doyle, with e3 Ministries, said. “They’re content Muslims and they’re having dreams over and over.”


“I think our God is a fair God, that He’s righteous and just, and people are seeking and they don’t know where to go,” Doyle said.


“Maybe they don’t have a Bible, maybe there’s no missionary in the village,” he said. “He’ll get the message to them somehow.”


The phenomenon of dreams and visions has surfaced throughout the Muslim world, from Indonesia to Morocco.


“In the church if you ask how many people came to Christ, 80 percent will say, ‘I saw Him in a dream,’” one woman in central Asia told CBN News.


A Christian friend challenged her to ask God to speak to her personally.


“So I decided to ask Him,” she said. “The next day … in my dream I saw Jesus … I decided to come to Him.”


Hazem Farraj hosts “Reflections,” a satellite program for Muslims. He said he often gets feedback about dreams and visions.


“I had one lady write me … she said, ‘I turned on the television and there you were … the words that were coming out of your mouth were so peaceful I fell asleep,’” Farraj recalled.


“She said, ‘When I fell asleep I ended up having a vision of Jesus and I saw the Lord,’” he continued. “She said, ‘As soon as I looked over I knew that Christ was the sacrifice, the son of the God.”


Doyle said the dream or vision is usually the start, not the end, of a Muslim’s conversion.


“Nobody goes to sleep a Muslim and wakes up a Christian, but it knocks down the false barriers that are inherent in Islam,” Doyle explained.


The Doyles said beneath the current revolution in the Middle East, there’s a spiritual earthquake.


“As things heat up politically and spiritually within Islam, man, the Holy Spirit is moving even more powerfully,” Joanna said.


“This is the time when hearts are open, people are desperate, governments are changing,” her husband added. “Everybody’s foundation has massive cracks in it and Jesus is the answer that can come in and fill that need.”


Many veteran missionaries to the Muslim world say dreams and visions, along with satellite television, are introducing Muslims to Jesus in unprecedented numbers.


They add that more Muslims are coming to Jesus than at any other time in the 1,400-year history of Islam.


The Doyles want believers in the West to join this spiritual revolution.


“Not everybody is going to go the Middle East. But they can pray,” Doyle said.

Four Ways to Break Through Your Fear & Self-Doubt


Four Ways To Break Through Your Fear and Self-Doubt


By Fabienne Frederickson, Forbes, June 26, 2012

Just recently I read a post on a small business start-up blog by an entrepreneur who was selected to deliver a TED talk. Despite knowing what an amazing opportunity this was, she experienced intense fear leading up to the event and even considered some crazy excuses to get out of her commitment.

She’s certainly not alone. As a coach and mentor who works with thousands of entrepreneurs, I often witness how people stop themselves by allowing fear and self-doubt to hold them back. The thing is, they’re often not even aware of it. Here’s what I mean… People SAY they want something very badly, that they want a change, and theoretically, that they’d do anything to get it.

But when the rubber meets the road, it’s a totally different story. For many, when it’s time to take action, they’re just not willing to take the steps or do the work that creates the result. It’s that inner self-doubt that consistently has them questioning every single move they make in growing their business and their income.

Here are my four steps to break though that fear and self-doubt:

1. Take a No-Excuses Approach. Although, some may call them “reasons”, people stop themselves all the time by using excuses. The opportunity they want so badly finally shows up, and they make excuses so as not to go forward. The biggest excuses I hear are “I don’t have enough money,” “I don’t have enough time, “I’m too busy”, “I don’t want to travel,” and the list goes on.

They use these excuses as their trap door, their escape route.

Let me ask you this—when pressed in a life or death situation, would you find the time or money? If someone you loved was trapped in a building, would you stop trying to rescue them if the front door was locked? No, of course not. You’d try the back door, then the windows, and every other possible way, right?

To achieve success, you’ve got to be willing to take the same approach with your business. Successful people are those who take a No-Excuses Approach and are willing to do what others won’t.

So, how badly do you want it? You either have excuses or you have results. Which do you choose?

2. Feel the Fear—But Do It Anyway. The ego creates fear to keep you small. For example, fear of rejection, fear of overwhelm, fear of humiliation, fear of making mistakes, fear of losing it all, fear of the unknown, and on and on it goes. The list is huge.

All entrepreneurs I know experience fear. What separates those who are successful and those who allow fear to hold them back is the willingness to act in spite of the fear. The best way to get over fear is to walk directly into it. It takes courage but you know what? Walking into fear is never as bad as you think it’s going to be. Instead, you’ll find it liberating.

3. Be Willing to Stretch Beyond Your Comfort Zone. Most people avoid discomfort like the plague. If you want to get to the next level of your business, you’ve got to be comfortable being uncomfortable—just for a short time. Yes, it’s a little scary at first but let’s face it, it’s not going to kill you.

The question is—are you willing? Are you willing to trade short-term discomfort for long-term success? If so, are you willing to go where you have to go? Are you willing to talk to who you have to talk to? Are you willing to move for what you want? Are you willing to do what you haven’t done? Are you willing to stretch beyond your comfort zone?

4. Take Decisive Action. You can’t just wish for something. You’ve got to take action. Action is an issue of personal responsibility. It’s where you acknowledge that you are solely responsible for the choices in your life and you accept that you cannot blame others for the choices you have made. Time and time again our inner self-doubt makes us question everything and keeps us from taking action when the solution shows up. This all boils down to one thing and one thing only. In plain English it’s called self-sabotage.

Widening your perspective around success starts with a decision. Once you make a decision to succeed, it’s time to commit to doing whatever it takes to make it happen.

It comes down to taking bold and decisive action toward what you say you want in your business or your life. It’s about saying YES to what’s possible for you. Saying YES to the opportunities that are divinely given to you—and then taking action.

Back to entrepreneur, Rebekah who I mentioned in my introduction—her fear of failure and her desire to conquer that self doubt actually wound up being a driving force for success in her business. And it can for you, too.

Six Reasons To Say No to Vaccination!

http://www.thehealthyhomeeconomist.com/six-reasons-to-say-no-to-vaccination/

by SARAH, THE HEALTHY HOME ECONOMIST on MAY 25, 2010

Vaccination is an extremely controversial topic these days. Whatever side of the aisle you may fall with regard to your opinion about vaccination, one thing is for certain. The choice to vaccinate or not to vaccinate is a decision that has the potential to greatly impact the health of you and most importantly, your children for the rest of their lives.


As a result, this decision should not be taken lightly and it should not be made in a vacuum. In other words, don’t just take your pediatrician’s word that shots are safe. It is possible for doctors to be wrong. They are human, after all. In reality, your doctor is simply parroting the standard line about vaccination from the American Medical Association (AMA) playbook. If you think you are getting their honest assessment, think again.

You should neither assume shots are dangerous just because your friend down the street doesn’t vaccinate her kids.

The key here is education; making an informed decision by investigating the facts with an open mind and knowing exactly what you are getting yourself into before you commit to do anything.

With that in mind, the list below will briefly detail to you the reasons why I did not vaccinate my own children and will never consider a shot for them for any reason even in the event of a so called “pandemic.” Please remember that I come from a medical family. My own Father (retired) is a MD as is my brother and my cousin (who was a pediatrician, now deceased). My husband’s mother is a nurse. There is no shortage of opinions on this subject in my family, I can assure you.

So, don’t use family pressure as an excuse to do what you need to do once you investigate the facts for yourself and make an informed decision. There is no more foolish choice than to do something because it is someone else’s wishes and not your own. It is your body, after all and these are your children. There is no one on earth who knows what is best for them except you and your spouse – not even and most especially not your doctor! Make your decisions feeling confident in this knowledge.

#1: Pharmaceutical Companies Can’t Be Trusted

Let’s just list a couple of the (many) times over the past 10 years where a drug or drug regimen has been deemed unsafe and downright dangerous and yet the pharmaceutical companies covered it up FOR YEARS in order to continue raking in the profits for as long as possible. This should be an easy task.

How about hormone replacement therapy for women? The standard of care for a menopausal woman for over 40 years was HRT. Even women with no complaints were advised that this treatment was helpful as it reduced chances for a heart attack and cancer and even helped them feel younger. Were any, I repeat ANY of these claims true? Not a whit. Breast cancer risk is doubled for women on HRT, 41% increased risk for stroke, 29% increased risk of heart attack, and the list goes on and on.

How about Vioxx? Before this dangerous drug that caused thousands of deaths from heart attack and stroke was finally removed from the market, evidence surfaced that Merck had withheld information and even doctored reports on its dangers years before. As of November 2007, Merck had agreed to pay $4.85 billion to settle approximately 27,000 cases from victims claiming injury or death of a family member using Vioxx. While this is a huge sum of money, in reality it represents less than one year’s profits for Merck. Does it pay for a drug company to lie about a drug’s safety and efficacy? You betcha. The risk of payouts to victims from getting sued is lower than the lure of huge and long lasting profits while a drug’s patent protection remains in effect.

I could cite other examples, but I’m trying to keep this post as pithy as possible. Please comment if you have other examples of pharmaceutical company deceit. It will help others reading this blog who might still be on the fence about this issue.

Remember the old proverb, “Fool me once, shame on you; Fool me twice, shame on me”? These corporate behemoths have proven themselves to be completely untrustworthy based on past behavior. In a court of law, if such a company were an actual witness, an attorney would never put them on the stand due to a serious lack of credibility. Are you really going to take these companies at their word that these shots are safe when money and profits are impacted by their answer?

#2: ALL Vaccines are Loaded with Chemicals and other Poisons

Here is a list of some of the damaging ingredients in the vaccines on the market today:

MSG, antifreeze, phenol (used as a disinfectant), formaldehyde (cancer causing and used to embalm), aluminum (associated with alzheimer’s disease and seizures), glycerin (toxic to the kidney, liver, can cause lung damage, gastrointestinal damage and death), lead, cadmium, sulfates, yeast proteins, antibiotics, acetone (used in nail polish remover), neomycin and streptomycin. And the ingredient making the press is thimerosol (more toxic than mercury, a preservative still used in many vaccines, not easily eliminated, can cause severe neurological damage as well as other life threatening autoimmune disease). These vaccines are grown and strained through animal or human tissue, likemonkey and dog kidney tissue, chick embryo, calf serum, human diploid cells (the dissected organs of aborted fetuses), pig blood, horse blood and rabbit brain.

Can you imagine injecting this stuff directly into your child’s blood? At least if you ate these ingredients, your body would have a chance to detoxify and eliminate them before any permanent damage could be done. But, to inject them right into the blood is the most damaging and lethal approach imaginable. How could anyone possibly think injection of such a cocktail of poison could in any way help preserve and enhance your child’s health?

It sure didn’t make any sense to me. And, here I am 12 years later, still very happy with my decision NOT to vaccinate my children.

Sadly, I know many Moms with 20/20 hindsight who greatly regret their decision to vaccinate. I don’t know ANYONE who has not vaccinated and regrets their decision, however. Which group do you want to be a part of in 10 years?

#3: Fully Vaccinated Children are the Unhealthiest, Most Chronically Ill Children I Know

One thing that completely confounds me is that there are no studies comparing the health of unvaccinated children to the health of vaccinated children. This seems like such an obvious study and it should have been conducted decades ago. Why hasn’t it been done yet? My guess is because the health of the nonvaccinated children would so totally blow away the health of the vaccinated children that the discussion about the dangers of vaccines could finally be put to bed and the case would be closed emphatically in favor of those that accuse shots of causing chronic illness and auto immune disease.

Take an informal poll of the folks in your circle and see for yourself. Observation is a powerful tool, so put it to use. The kids with the most problems – allergies, asthma, ADHD, autism, coordination and other gross motor issues, etc sure seem to be the ones that are right on track with their vaccination schedule, don’t you think?

Even more powerful, ask Moms with several children, some of whom are vaccinated and some who are not. In my own circle, the Moms I know who have one or two older kids who are fully vaccinated and the younger kids who did not get any shots tell me that, hands down, that the unvaccinated children are healthier and have less problems.

Someday there will be a study that shows that unvaccinated children have many less health problems than their vaccinated peers. Don’t wait until this study is finally done because it will be too late for your child.

#4: Other Countries Are Waking Up to the Dangers of Vaccines

In 1975, Japan raised its minimum vaccination age to 2 years old, The country’s infant mortality subsequently plummeted to such low levels that Japan now enjoys one of the lowest level in the Western world (#3 at last look). In comparison, the United States’ infant mortality rate is #33.

In Australia, the flu vaccine was recently suspended (April 2010) for children under 5 because an alarming number of children were showing up in the emergency rooms with febrile convulsions or other vaccine reactions within hours of getting this shot.

Need I say more?

#5: A Number of Vaccines Have Already Had Problems/Been Removed from the Market

Here is a brief list of some of the vaccines that have caused serious injury in recent years. Please comment with others that you know of if they are not on this list:

- In Feb 2002, GlaxoSmithKline removed the Lyme Disease vaccine from the market citing poor sales when in fact a number of folks who received the vaccine reported symptoms worse than the disease itself such as incurable arthritis or neurological impairment.

- The Rotavirus vaccine (Rotashield) was removed from the market in 1999 due to an association between the vaccine and life threatening bowel obstruction or twisting of the bowl! Interestingly, my pediatrician at the time (who was a lifelong friend of our family) had highly recommended that this vaccine be given to my newborn baby at the time. I trusted my instincts and said no to the shot – am I glad I did! My pediatrician (remember, lifelong family friend) subsequently dropped me as a patient. Guess he wasn’t such a friend after all!

- A warning was issued concerning the second Rotavirus vaccine (Rotateq) in 2007 as it caused the same twisting of the bowel problem in 28 infants (16 of which required intestinal surgery). This second vaccine has not yet been removed from the market as far as I know.

- Another vaccine that has had a lot of problems but is not yet withdrawn is the Gardasil vaccine for adolescent girls. Fainting, paralysis, slurred speech are just a few of the reactions reported and yet this vaccine continues to stay on the market. At least 1600 adverse events have been reported since its approval in 2006, yet doctors are continuing to recommend this shot to their patients. Why this vaccine hasn’t already been removed from the market is astonishing.

If the vaccines above have had serious problems, the others probably do too as vaccine manufacturers follow the same basic formula when coming up with each new shot.

#6 You Can Always Get Vaccinated, But You Can Never Undo a Vaccination

Procrastination is usually considered a character flaw, but in the case of vaccination, delaying the decision for as long as possible plays to your advantage. The longer you wait to vaccinate your child, the better. A child’s immune system continues to develop for years after birth. The blood/brain barrier does not fully develop until adolescence. The longer you wait, the more likely your child’s immune system will be able to handle the onslaught with minimal damage.

If you don’t know what to do, don’t do anything!

Conversely, you can never undo a vaccination. There are holistic therapies that can detox a child from the vaccine’s poison, but the damage that is done can never be 100% repaired. And, I have NEVER met a fully vaccinated child that is healthier and more robust than a well nourished, unvaccinated child. Period.

While I would like to convince you to never vaccinate your child, if I can simply convince you to delay it for a few years that is certainly better than vaccinating a baby. If you can simply commit to waiting until your child is school age to vaccinate, so much the better than if you vaccinate as a toddler and so on. Time is on your side and waiting is the best policy when it comes to shots.

By the time your child is older, more research will have been done, you will have an opportunity to learn more and become more comfortable with your decision to wait. Who knows? Your attitude of wait and see may turn out to be permanent.

Judge Not! What is the right moral stand?

·          

Borrowing characters from C. S. Lewis, imagine this dialogue between a junior demon named Wormwood and his wicked uncle Screwtape.

Wormwood: Believers have so many weapons at their disposal. It is difficult to neutralize them. It takes a huge effort just to slow the work of a single Christian.

Screwtape: Your one-on-one approach is inefficient. This is the age of Madison Avenue and mass marketing. If you can undermine their whole group at once, then you’ve accomplished something.

Wormwood: Unfortunately, I’m not highly productive. In the time it takes me to frustrate one believer, I could tempt a dozen heathens.

Screwtape: Don’t lose heart, Wormwood. We are imple­menting a plan to impair the whole Church with a single ploy.

Wormwood: I don’t see how that will be possible. I see Christians dedicated to warning others about hell. It’s all I can do just to get one of them distracted for a short time.

Screwtape: We are going to use their Leader’s own words.

Wormwood: No! Please don’t. Don’t even joke about using His words. I can’t take it.

Screwtape: If you’re ever going to grow up to be an effec­tive demon, you’re going to have to learn to use the Enemy’s words against Him.

Wormwood: It just seems so dangerous. Which words are you going to use?

Screwtape: “Judge not!”

Wormwood: I don’t understand why He would tell them not to judge. That’s confusing. He commanded His followers to rebuke, admonish, and judge hundreds of times in His Book. And that’s what they’re out there
doing. And I might add, it’s causing me grief.

Screwtape: When their Leader said those words, He was speaking to hypocrites. “Judge not… you hypocrite,” as He said later in the same paragraph.

Wormwood: Yeah, but how are we going to use “Judge not” to neutralize the whole Church?

Screwtape: We’re going to get them to ignore the fact that He was talking to hypocrites. He said that hypocrites should not judge, at least not until they stop doing the wrong deed themselves. But we’re going to make them think none of them should judge, ever.

Wormwood: That’s bril­liant… if you can pull it off, that is. I mean, if we can get them to stop judging, then they won’t rebuke the wicked. And they won’t be able to admonish those who are sexually immoral.

Screwtape: It is even more brilliant than you realize. If we can seduce Christians into fol­lowing the instructions for hypo­crites, we will turn them into hypocrites. It’s like government workers who follow foolish rules so precisely they are transformed from human beings into bureau­crats; drones who mindlessly dis­pense red tape regardless of the misfortune they cause. The slave who willingly obeys his master, begins to conform to the master. If believers willingly submit to an instruction for hypocrites, they will conform to hypocrisy. Eventually, with a little evil luck, we might stop them from con­fronting unbelievers altogether because, as you know Worm­wood, to confront requires judg­ing. And if they don’t judge un­believers, they are hypocrites, professing the Gospel but deny­ing its power.

Wormwood: Ha, ha. I’m excited. When do we start?

Screwtape: Everything is underway already. Just do your part.

Wormwood: And that is…?

Screwtape: Make sure your targets read as little of the Book as possible. Don’t get too wor­ried if they stick to their favorite twenty cliché verses. But make sure they remain ignorant of most of the Word.

Wormwood: Master, you are brilliant.

Screwtape: You can call me Master if you want, but don’t let the boss hear you.

Hopefully the Church will see Judge Not headed for retirement replaced with Judge Rightly. For as Jesus said, “Do not judge according to appearance, but judge with righteous judgment” (John 7:24).

Page 5 Prefácio

Eu espero que você seja um cético

“Suponha que eu acreditasse ser Deus e que eu cresse que todo o universo gira ao meu redor?” O jovem cheio de confiança esperava pela minha reação a sua pergunta. Eu simplesmente respondi: Eu acho que você seria um ser humano normal. Ele ficou um pouco surpreso de eu não ter me impressionado com o seu absurdo comentário, e me perguntou: “O que você quer dizer com isso?” Eu expliquei perguntando a ele o que ele achava que “aqui” era. Ele me disse que era onde ele estava.

Todo ser humano pensa dessa mesma forma. Nós definimos “aqui” como sendo onde nós estamos. Todos as outras pessoas e todas as outras coisas estão lá. Cada um de nós pensa que é o centro do universo. Semântica? Vamos mais adiante. Defina “agora” para mim. Diga-me quando é. Você não consegue. Na fração de segundo que você tenta localizar o “agora” ele se torna passado. Eu geralmente explico a natureza do “agora” depois que eu pergunto a uma pessoa se ela já roubou alguma coisa. Esta é a típica resposta à pergunta: “Sim, já. Mas isso foi no passado.” Eu explico a elas que tudo está no “passado”. Você tem que definir até mesmo a leitura dessa frase como algo que você fez no passado.

Esses pensamentos são um pouco estranhos, e você talvez esteja pensando que ainda há algumas coisas das quais nós (Page 6) podemos ter certeza – o sol ainda nasce, o céu ainda é azul, e “para cima” ainda é “para cima”. Não é verdade. O sol nunca nasce. A Terra gira, nos dando a impressão de que o sol está nascendo embora ele esteja parado (parece estar parado, mas na verdade está se movendo pelo universo). O céu não é azul. Pergunte a qualquer astronauta. Ele não tem cor. Nem “para cima” é para cima. Lembre-se que a Terra é redonda. Aquilo que é para cima para alguém no Pólo Norte não é a mesma coisa para alguém no Pólo Sul. Na verdade, se todo mundo na Terra apontasse para onde pensa que é para cima, nós todos apontaríamos em direções diferentes.

Muitas coisas que pensamos serem algo certo não o são. A História nos mostra que até aquilo que a ciência define como uma verdade hoje pode ser ridicularizado em cem anos.

Então do que nós podemos ter certeza? Existe algo que seja “absoluto” ou uma verdade imutável? Nós falaremos disso adiante nesse livro.

Em abril de 2001, por meio de uma série de circunstâncias estranhas, eu acabei falando na Associação Americana de Ateus, durante a Convenção Nacional em Orlando no estado da Flórida. A platéia de 250 pessoas foi razoavelmente educada ... até que eu afirmei que a Bíblia estava repleta de fatos científico e médicos, que foram escritos milhares de anos antes do homem descobri-los. A reação foi escárnio imediato.

A reação deles era compreensível. Se eu estivesse falando a verdade a Bíblia teria que ter uma origem sobrenatural. Um pensamento desagradável para um ateu convicto. Isso, no entanto, não é uma noticia de todo ruim para o incrédulo. Se a Bíblia provar ser a Palavra (Page 7) daquele que criou todas as coisas, faria sentido folhear suas páginas. Ao final das contas, o tempo levará a todos nós para o caixão. Se houver uma chance em um milhão de que a promessa bíblica de imortalidade e a ameaça de condenação forem verdade, nós mesmos devemos estudá-la.

A Bíblia não tenta defender sua inspiração. Gênesis simplesmente inicia com as palavras “Deus disse”. Essas palavras são repetidas nove vezes no primeiro capítulo. A frase “O Senhor falou” é usada 560 vezes nos primeiros cinco livros da Bíblia e pelo menos 3.800 vezes em todo o Antigo Testamento. Isaías alegou pelo menos 40 vezes que a sua mensagem vinha diretamente de Deus; Ezequiel, 60 vezes; e Jeremias, 100 vezes.

A maioria das pessoas não está ciente que a Bíblia foi escrita ao longo de um período de 1.600 anos, por mais de 40 autores, que escreveram em três continentes diferentes em três línguas diferentes. Eles falaram sobre centenas de assuntos controversos, e mesmo assim escreveram palavras que concordavam entre si.

Esses fatos tornam a informação contida nessa publicação ainda mais inacreditável.

Antes de olharmos esses fatos científicos na (Page 8) Bíblia, eu devo dizer algumas informações importantes. Para fazer isso, eu terei que citar trechos da Bíblia. Isso não significa que eu vou usar “raciocínio circular”. Eu simplesmente quero explicar algo que é relevante para o que eu vou apresentar.

Há muitos anos atrás, eu coordenei um clube de crianças. Ao final da reunião, eu disse para cerca de cem crianças que fizessem uma fila para ganhar doces. Logo houve um tumulto, e a fila foi arranjada de um jeito que eu percebi que era uma fila da ganância. Os garotos maiores e mais egoístas ficaram na frente, e os pequenos e tímidos ficaram na parte de trás. Então eu fiz algo que me deu grande satisfação. Eu disse para as crianças virarem para trás. Todos fizeram isso. Depois eu disse para ficarem onde elas estavam, e fiquei muito alegre em ir para a outra ponta da fila e em dar os doces primeiro para as crianças menores e mais tímidas.

Num mundo onde os ricos ficam mais ricos e os pobres são pisoteados, nós somos informados que Deus foi para a outra ponta da fila com a mensagem de vida eterna (eu sei que talvez você não acredite na existência de Deus, mas tenha um pouco de paciência). Isto é o que nos dizem:
Porque a palavra da cruz é loucura para os que perecem ...Porque está escrito: Destruirei a sabedoria dos sábios, E aniquilarei a inteligência dos inteligentes... Mas Deus escolheu as coisas loucas deste mundo para confundir as sábias; e Deus escolheu as coisas fracas deste mundo para confundir as fortes; e Deus escolheu as coisas vis deste mundo, e as desprezíveis, (Page 9) e as que não são, para aniquilar as que são; para que nenhuma carne se glorie perante ele. (1Coríntios 1:18,19,27-29) Como Deus foi para a outra ponta da fila? Simplesmente ao escolher aquilo que era louco, fraco, vil, e desprezível. Deixe-me ilustrar o que Ele fez.

Você acredita que os seguintes relatos bíblicos aconteceram de verdade?

· Adão e Eva;
· Arca de Noé;
· Jonas e a baleia;
· Josué e as muralhas de Jericó;
· Sansão e o seu longo cabelo;
· Daniel e a cova dos leões;
· Moisés e o Mar Vermelho.

Se você é um ateu, é claro que não acredita. Para você, acreditar em histórias tão fantásticas seria o mesmo que desistir da sua dignidade intelectual. Quem em perfeito juízo faria uma loucura dessas? A resposta é somente aqueles que entendem que Deus escolheu as coisas fracas, loucas, vis, e desprezíveis deste mundo para confundir aqueles que pensam ser sábios.

Veja a ofensa intelectual no tom desta carta que eu recebi, em relação ao debate de Orlando sobre o tema “Deus existe?”:
Que triste você ter desistido do seu intelecto por causa de um livro pré-científico e ignorante. Eu sei do seu debate que vai ocorrer... (Page 10) eu não estarei lá, mas eu tenho certeza que a platéia vai ter umas boas risadas com a sua apresentação. Literalistas bíblicos talvez não sejam inteligentes, mas eles são extremamente engraçados. Eu espero que você tenha aberto esse livro com uma boa dose de ceticismo. Você deve fazer isso mesmo. O mundo está cheio de pessoas simplórias que fariam um templo para um nó de madeira em um tronco de árvore que se assemelha a um “santo” morto. Você é prudente ao verificar as evidências antes de decidir se algo é ou não é verdade.

Onde está a evidência?

Imagine que você está olhando um transatlântico luxuoso navegando em águas calmas. Para o seu espanto, cerca de uma dúzia de pessoas pulam do navio e se agarram a um bote salva-vidas. Você observa enquanto o resto dos passageiros no navio riem deles. Você consegue entender a reação deles. O que aquelas poucas pessoas fizeram era tolo. Não fazia sentido.

De repente, o navio colide com um iceberg não avistado e naufraga, levando consigo todos que permaneceram a bordo. Agora você entende que os passageiros que pareciam tolos eram sábios, mas os que permaneceram no navio e pareciam ser sábios, eram tolos.
Nós temos na Bíblia uma ordem para pular do transatlântico luxuoso deste mundo. Antes de você rir de cristãos bobocas, pergunte-se se há alguma prova de que suas afirmações são verdadeiras. As próximas páginas fornecem evidências convincentes de que a Bíblia não é um livro comum.

Fatos científicos na Bíblia

Capítulo 1


A Bíblia e a posição da Terra no espaço

Em um tempo que se acreditava que a Terra estava situada em cima de um grande animal ou gigante (1.500 A.C.), a Bíblia falou da posição da Terra no espaço: “O norte estende sobre o vazio; e suspende a terra sobre o nada.” (Jó 26:7). A ciência não descobriu que a Terra não era sustentada por nada até 1650.


As Escrituras falam de uma estrutura invisível

Só há pouco tempo atrás, a ciência descobriu que tudo que nós vemos é composto de coisas que não conseguimos ver – átomos. Em Hebreus 11:3, escrito há 2000 anos atrás, a Escrituras nos dizem que “aquilo que se vê não foi feito do que é aparente”.


A Bíblia revela que a Terra é redonda

As Escrituras nos dizem que a Terra é redonda: “Ele é o que está assentado sobre o círculo da terra” (Isaías 40:22).

Page 12

A palavra traduzida como “círculo” aqui é a palavra em hebraico chuwg, que também pode ser traduzida como “circuito” ou “bússola” ( dependendo do contexto). Ou seja, ela indica algo esférico, arredondado ou arqueado – não algo que é plano ou quadrado. O livro de Isaías foi escrito aproximadamente entre 740 e 680 anos A.C. São pelo menos 300 anos antes de Aristóteles sugerir, em seu livro Sobre os Céus, que a Terra talvez fosse uma esfera. Dois mil anos depois (num tempo em que a ciência acreditava que a Terra fosse plana) as Escrituras inspiraram Cristóvão Colombo a navegar ao redor do mundo.


A Bíblia e a ciência da Oceanografia

Mathew Maury (1806 – 1873) é considerado o pai da oceanografia também chamada de oceanologia. Ele percebeu a expressão “veredas dos mares” em Salmos 8:8 ( escrito 2.800 anos antes) e disse, “Se Deus disse que há veredas no mar, eu vou encontrá-las”. Maury então acreditou literalmente no que Deus disse e foi procurar essas veredas, e nós devemos muito a sua descoberta das correntes continentais quente e fria. O seu livro sobre oceanografia permanece um texto básico sobre o assunto e ainda é usado em universidades.


A Bíblia e as ondas de rádio

Deus fez a Jó uma pergunta muito estranha em 1.500 a.C. Ele perguntou: “Ou mandarás aos raios para que saiam, (Page 13) e te digam: Eis-nos aqui?” (Jó 38:35). Isso parece ser uma afirmação cientificamente ridícula – que a luz pode ser enviada, e depois se manifestar em fala. Mas você sabia que toda radiação eletromagnética, de ondas de rádio ao raio-X, viaja na velocidade da luz? É por isso que você fazer uma comunicação instantânea sem fio com alguém do outro lado do mundo. O fato de que a luz podia ser enviada e depois se manifestar em fala não foi descoberto pela ciência até 1846 ( 3.300 anos depois) , quando “o cientista britânico James Clerk Maxwell sugeriu que a eletricidade e as ondas leves eram duas formas da mesma coisa” (Modern Century Illustrated Encyclopedia).


A Bíblia e Entropia

Três lugares diferentes na Bíblia (Isaías 51:6; Salmos 102:25,26; e Hebreus 1:11) indicam que a Terra está se deteriorando. Isso é o que a Segunda Lei da Termodinâmica (a lei da entropia crescente) afirma: que em todos os processos físicos, todo sistema ordenado ao longo do tempo tende a se tornar mais desordenado. Tudo está se desgastando e deteriorando à medida que a energia está se tornando cada vez mais escassa. Isso significa que o Universo irá se deteriorar ao ponto que (em tese) haverá uma “morte da energia térmica” e portanto não haverá mais energia disponível para o uso. Isso só foi descoberto pela ciência recentemente, mas a Bíblia afirma isso de forma concisa.


A Bíblia e o ciclo da água

As Escrituras nos informam “Todos os rios vão para o mar, e contudo o mar não se enche; ao lugar para onde os rios vão, para ali tornam eles a correr.” (Eclesiastes 1:7). Essa frase parece não ser profunda. Mas quando é considerada com outras passagens bíblicas, ela torna-se mais fantástica. Por exemplo, o rio Mississipi despeja aproximadamente 518 bilhões de galões de litros de água a cada 24 horas no Golfo do México. Para onde vai toda essa água? E esse é só um entre milhares de rios. A resposta está no ciclo hidrológico, tão bem explicado na Bíblia.

Eclesiastes 11:3 diz que “Estando as nuvens cheias, derramam a chuva sobre a terra”. Olhe para as palavras resumidas da Bíblia em Amós 9:6 Ele ... o que chama as águas do mar, e as derrama sobre a terra”. A idéia de um ciclo completo da água só foi compreendido pelos cientistas no século dezessete. Entretanto, dois mil anos antes das descobertas de Pierre Perrault, Edme Mariotte, Edmund Halley, e outros, as Escrituras mencionaram claramente um ciclo da água.


A Bíblia e a primeira Lei da Termodinâmica

As Escrituras dizem, “Assim os céus, a terra e todo o seu exército foram acabados.” (Gênesis 2:1). O original em hebraico usa o particípio para indicar que uma ação completada no passado nunca mais iria acontecer. A criação foi “acabada” de uma vez por todas. Isso é exatamente o que a primeira lei da termodinâmica diz. Essa lei (chamada geralmente de lei da conservação da energia ou massa) afirma que nem a massa nem a energia podem ser criadas ou destruídas.

Foi por causa dessa lei que a teoria do “Estado-imutável” ou “Criação contínua” foi desconsiderada. Hoyle dizia que em alguns pontos do universo chamados “irtrons”, a matéria ou a energia estava sendo criada constantemente. Mas, a primeira lei da termodinâmica afirma exatamente o contrário. Realmente não há “criação” ocorrendo hoje em dia. Tudo está “acabado” exatamente como a Bíblia diz.


A Bíblia e a dimensões de um navio

Em Gênesis 6, Deus revelou a Noé as dimensões da arca de 42 milhões de litros cúbicos que ele deveria construir. Em 1609 em Hoor na Holanda, um navio foi construído de acordo com essas medidas (30:5:3), revolucionando a construção de navios. Por volta do ano 1900 todos os grandes navios nos oceanos tinham aproximadamente a mesmas proporções da arca (confirmado pelo “Registro de Navio de Lloyd” no Almanaque Mundial).


A Bíblia e as leis meteorológicas

A Bíblia descreveu um “ciclo” de correntes de ar dois mil anos antes de os cientistas descobrirem: “O vento vai para o sul, e faz o seu giro para o norte; continuamente vai girando o vento, e volta fazendo os seus circuitos.” (Eclesiastes 1:6). Nós sabemos agora que o ar ao redor da Terra gira em gigantescos círculos, no sentido horário em um hemisfério e no sentido anti-horário no outro hemisfério.


A Bíblia e a Ciência

“Na antiguidade e no que foi chamado de Idade das Trevas, o homem não sabia o que ele sabe hoje sobre a humanidade e o cosmos. Eles não conheciam a fechadura, mas eles possuíam a chave, que é Deus. Agora muitos têm excelentes descrições da fechadura, mas eles perderam a chave. A solução ideal é a união entre ciência e religião. Nós devemos ser proprietários da fechadura e da chave. A verdade é que à medida que a ciência avança, ela descobre o que foi dito há milhares de anos na Bíblia” Richard Wurmbrand, Provas da Existência de Deus.
