A way to rate entertainment choices..... just kind of silly...but consider.

Y = Youth  (a way for the youth to loose their own immagination skills)

G = Godly  (may be has some sensible teaching moments.  May be considered plain-people style information.  Contains hymns and other heavenly musical scores.  Observance of deer in the woods is wonderful reflection of the conditions that happen in nature.)

PG = Portions are not Godly  (simply put, some things are not heavenly.  Somethings are not accurate and/or useful for humanity.)

PG 13 = Portions are not Godly to those under 13 (Maybe it contains bloody scenes.  Maybe it explains some things that happened with David and Bathsheba.  Maybe it is a little off the wall with the dirty chiter chatter)

R = Repent.  Repent. Repent.  Before it is too late.  Way off the wall mocking and inconsiderate behaviour.  Anger without explaination or reason.  DisRespectful nonsense.  Lacks ability to reason.  Perhaps propoganda nonsense.

X = Don't even consider.  You are burned.  Hatefilled.  Hell-promotion.  Stay away.

There's something about Charlie Puth

Now, I know that this particular singer does not sing Christian songs.  (Note: Christians are not always Catholic or Protestant.....they may identify with other social groups like Anabaptist, Messianic, Hebrew Roots, semi-evangelical independent groups or other things)

But he is a public figure so he can serve as an example of what to do and what not to do when dealing with life.

1. He sings love songs.  The Song of Solomon IS a part of the HOLY BIBLE, so to eliminate that part of the bible is to eliminate a part of the human life that our creator wants us to "appreciate."  One particular song which he sings, seems like the story of Ruth and Boaz (One call away)....

2. He has a beautiful singing voice.  If Christians could sing with such passionate love towards each other and towards our creator God, imagine how many people would leave the secular and sensual culture due to the display of godly love, instead of trying to win souls by "condemnation."  Perhaps we should pray for such strength.

3. His mother is Jewish and used her skills as a music teacher/employment to influence her child to such singing skills.  His father was real-estate and a general "white guy" real-estate personality.  Parenting practices "rub off."

4. Some of his songs are appropriate for the general audience.  For persons under 18.  One of his songs is unique in that the unofficial music video includes guys who are "nerdy" looking and don't seem to be noticed by this world.  Charlie actually considered himself a "nerd" in his teenage years.

5. Some of his songs are NOT appropriate for the general audience.  The worship of sexuality, lust and bondage (alcohol addictions, heavy night life, immodesty in women etc) gets more attention than the aspects of love and what it requires, (self-denial, kindness, overcoming personal anger, think about the type of person you are with etc).

6. He is a general likable singer.  He doesn't seem too "full of it" like many pop singers become.  Hence he seems to have eliminated pride and generally admits to his "failures" as he is human.

7. He has spoken or was around people who support "Gay marriage" and things of that nature.  Does that mean that he is vicious about supporting such a thing?  For example, supporting the tearing down of bakery that doesn't cater to certain weddings. I don't know.  What I do know is that his approach to such individuals is not "condemning" and it is also not "catering" for the most part.  Jesus himself, loved those who could not love themselves....... he was around sinners.  Jesus himself also had conditions of "love" that were different from institutional conditions.

8. Jesus was around sinners.  He went to rich famous sinner's homes.  Charlie doesn't seem to be bothered by being around sinners.  Charlie doesn't seem to be bothered if his fans are sinners.  Be like Jesus.  Be like Charlie.

9. He has a scar on his eye brow.  He would not have a "life" had a vicious dog taken full control and a caregiver not given attention to his need for saving from the vicious dog as a young child.  As a teenager he really had a "teenage boy look" and not as much handsomeness.  The scar does not cause him to fear singing.  His teenage look did not cause him to fear appearing before pop-stars and Hollywood gossip.  His scar does not cause him to fear appearing "nice looking" to people.  Don't let your scars wear you down.  Some scars are hidden in the heart.

10. He loves his fans.  Others could be following you......as you are.  Not that he is perfect, but that he chooses to overcome that barrier.

In some ways I can relate to CHarlie: 1. Musical talent.....I have a little bit in the reality that I can play some Rachmaninoff.  2. Computer Nerd..... well yes, I was the back stage tech person and the "help desk" person at college 3. Some middle east culture connections through family.  The personality is unique and determined to success.....

(Why have not I written a lot of this and that about other activities in my life, such as my gardening activities?  sewing activities?  household tasks etc?  answer: because unconditional love for humanity holds more value.....than the everyday mundane.  More than we realize)

Then shall the man bring his wife unto the priest, and he shall bring her offering for her, the tenth part of an ephah of barley meal; he shall pour no oil upon it, nor put frankincense thereon; for it is an offering of jealousy, an offering of memorial, bringing iniquity to remembrance. (Num 5:15)

Calculate the "day" in the Qumran Calendar.

*This is not edited grammatically, only for presentation of notes

I have not posted a lot since 9-23-2017 astronomy event where the planets aligned as the Rev 12 sign.  However, I do believe it is important to understand the calculation of ancient time as it CAN be converted to modern time.

HOW?

Sun, Moon, Stars are given to us as signs in the heavens.

Clue.

Metonic cycle presents to us the reality that there are 235 synodic months (lunar phases) in a cycle.  This is equivalent to 19 years.  It is easier to break things down by groups of years.  

If a person wanted to calculate "time" using the Qumran calendar.  Which it is an extremely orderly calendar and explains WHY there are such things as Jubilees written in the scriptures.  The best solution is to calculate by "days" based on the start of a calendrical cycle.  It is also important to know the condition of the heavens around the time when Christ was on the cross.  I do not claim to know the EXACT day Christ was on the cross, however, there COULD be signs in the heavens which indicate the possible time, as well as historical evidences for such which connect information from the bible to the times of events listed in history.  http://raggedycottagegarden.blogspot.com/2017/04/first-fruits-ad-31-vs-ad-2017.html

Pick a "day."  Call that "DAY 1" in Calendrical cycle 1.  Look up the location of the planets in the heavens (Book: Biblical Heavenly Signs).  Look up the timing of "nature" on the earth.  Barley harvest indicates start of Abib.

The "day" can be organized efficiently and accurately if the "day" is assigned according to the signs in the heavens and the signs in nature.

The moon itself moves in certain patterns along the ecliptic, year after year.

As a result, the Qumran calendar will present the time of the biblical events based on the pattern of the moon from the time of the "full moon" as the start of Abib 1 on Calendar cycle 1, which allows for the New Moon (sun was darkened 6th hour to the 9th hour as Christ was on the cross).

A "day" number may be on day 234 in the Qumran Calendar while it is on day 248-255 in the common modern Jewish calendar.  A 14-21 day difference.  This is due to the condition of the full moon being the start of the month of Abib in calendar cycle 1.

The "day" does not match the "math" of modern Christianity.  The Christianity that celebrates Christmas and Easter (such times are merely celebrations from pagan times before knowledge of the bible presented to the people).  The "day" will be closer to the modern Jewish Hebrew calendar due to its condition of being calculated by the signs of the moon phases.  However, this does not negate any work done by great Christians of the past who were martyred or severely persecuted for the faith, before their knowledge of the Qumran calendar.

The TIME of JESUS BIRTH is indicated CLEARLY by the scriptures : http://www.the13thenumeration.com/Blog13/2012/11/02/the-course-of-abija/

He doesn't need your help......

God's ways are so perfect, you cannot and should not attempt to alter his ways.  His ways are higher than our ways.

He created the eagle to fly in a perfect pattern and build a perfect nest in which to raise its young.  Do you not believe that he alone can also provide for you?

There are men in this world, and women too, who act as if they need "help" but they really do not need our help.

I have seen pictures of children starving in Africa.  I get reminded of how many deaths occurred in historical black-deaths and plagues.

There are times were God doesn't need your help.  There are times where people "pretend" to need your help, but are actually looking for other standards that are not God's standards for you or for themselves.

1. A man asks for your hand in marriage.  This man has been out on the town with other women and you didn't know about it.  He doesn't need your help.  He needs Jesus.

2. A group of girls want you to dress in nicer fancier and shorter skirts to make the football team in town happy.  He (they) don't need your help.  He (they) need Jesus.

3. A man who doesn't follow Jesus in another country and asked for you to get married.  Yes, he is a religious man, a confident man.  You met him online.  He doesn't need your help.  He needs Jesus.

4. A man says he is conservative Christian.  He never really liked history that much.  He avoided the subject of why Christmas and Easter are not mentioned in the bible and never really cared that much about how to treat  a woman or other cultures for that matter.  In fact, woman are always to submit, that's it, nothing else.  He knows hymns from great Christians of the past.  He has to do nothing in his heart.  He doesn't care that the Song of Moses and the Song of Lord is mentioned in Revelation.  He doesn't need your help.  He needs Jesus.

5. A man is asking for money.  You have never personally met him or the people he is helping.  He is supporting orphans and widows.  He is helping storm victims.  He is online.  He is part of a good organization.  Well at least it appears that way. (The red cross only built a few homes with millions of dollars donated).  If he is further than 30 miles away from your home, it is likely you won't know him.  He doesn't need your help.  Well at least a LOT of your help, unless you KNOW background information.  He needs to rely on Jesus and rely on local people, local natural resources for food and clothing.

6. He loves screens.  He loves computers.  He loves everything to do with cars.  He is obsessed with stuff of this world.  He hates visiting his grandmother in the hospital.  He hates visiting his long lost cousin with cancer.  He doesn't need your help.  He needs Jesus.

7. He was an -A- student in the school.  He passed out of college at the age of 16.  He never cared to investigate the origin of "evolution" and its theories.  (It was created by a rich not a humble man).  He loves to know that he can now buy a Ferrari because of his fancy degree and career.  He is looking forward to having one or more wives.  He doesn't need your help.  He needs Jesus.

8. His mother will not help him understand the important message of hard-work, getting things done for others and prayer.  His mother wants him to be a partier, a drinker and a lazy man like all the rest of them.  He doesn't need your help.  He needs Jesus.

******************

Here is a man that needs your help.

He was persecuted.

He was an outcast.

He was a student of the most high as well as a student at Harvard.

He wept over his lost sister living in sin.

He stood on the podium and stood for the right way to treat the tribes.

He allowed a sinfilled woman who left her lifestyle start up a small business.

He never picked up a gun to fight in a war, because he knew the war we face is in the spirit.

He was gossiped about in his local community and they hated his opinions in the local newspaper.

He was filled with flavor and didn't try to blend in with the sheep.  He knew who he was created to be.  What he was created to do.

He left his computer at the desk of a disabled woman who had difficulty speaking.

He didn't ask for money, when he became friends with the poor, fatherless, widows.  He just wanted to be their friend.

He lived in a state of survival.  Living off of the things in the wild.  He knows what berries in the forest are edible and which ones are not.  He is willing to point this out to EvE.

Now if you KNOW the scripture, and know it well, you will become like this man whom you should HELP!!!

Is it better to read more conservative leaning blogs than liberal leaning blogs

For biblical advice and perspective in life.

Of course READ READ READ the bible first and foremost.  I suggest the KJV if you are reading in English

From experience I would rely on biblical advice from blogs and articles in this order..... (this includes off line publications)........As a result, your life will feel more fulfilling and successful.  Yes, some conservative blogs can seem like they "don't understand your situation" or "I need to shun you"...... which can be a bummer, but that doesn't mean that the information is bad, its just that your condition doesn't match their condition.

1. Persecution of Christians (and Jewish too) types of articles and magazines (Voice of the Martyrs, One for Israel, Iraq Christian Relief, IFCJ etc etc.)

2. Historical and Practical Magazines and articles (Charity Christian ministries (http://charitychristianfellowship.org/sermons), truthforfree.com, any historical Christian writers including Ellen G. White, Spurgeon, Augustine etc)

3. Messianic teachings that teach biblical themes from Jewish understanding.  Very good at connecting the "dots" between old and new testament.  Yah-tube for example will offer further information.

4. Common personal blogs and websites.  Nogreaterjoy.org (this resource has some internet bully UNHOLY solutions and issues so beware of that), duggarfamilyblog, Wissmann blog, The Transformed Wife by Lori Alexander (this resource has some internet bully UNHOLY solutions and issues so beware of that), aboverubies.org, Vodi Bachumn and so forth.

5. Practical Life Style blogs that reflect good home and character....  "the wise woman builds her home" etc etc.

6. General Wisdom and Down To Earth Lifestyle blogs....(Faith and Religious belief may not be similar to that within your own home) (Gardening blogs, Crafting blogs, frugal living blogs, Heritage and understanding of culture blogs, healthy living blogs etc)..... example birthjunkie.org and unassistedchildbirth.org


*********************
In the middle of the road are general reading materials.  Anything like the common local newspaper to the "fake news" agendas by big media.  Don't get caught in textbooks that have been twisted to promote agendas by the public or local schools.  Read them for the basic information and double check to see truth and accuracy.
*****************


Read more liberal leaning materials for "knowledge" or "different point of view" types of things, but do not spend hours and hours commenting on their things if you are trying to convince them of biblical wisdom.  Time will get wasted.  Many times such blogs are filled with words just to prove one person is better than another person.  Occasionally something useful for the "poor and oppressed" man is there, but mainly the blogs are there to keep people away from the word.

1. Spiritual abuse websites and blogs.  Commonly find fault with anything that appears "patriarchy" or "no divorce" types of things.  Often quick to find a way to get a lawyer to solve humanity problems, never consult the bible for solutions.  FlakyFalseCHristianAbuse

2. Fake news nonsense.  Articles filled with mockery at the president and ways to tease your neighbor.

3. Websites that promote lavish and wasteful living and lifestyles.  Me-first mentality.

4. Websites that attack and personally find fault with biblical teachings.  Particularly with the covering up of Christian Martyrs of the past.  Some may cover up their abuse towards tribes of the earth.  Some may be of a religious nature (ie. some Catholicism blogs, some baptists that don't admit native american genocide etc.)

5. Websites that have never taken the time to "visit the orphan" "visit the widow" or anything that is good for humanity.

6. Rich and Famous blogs and websites.  Keeping up with the wealthy will leave one missing out on the valuable things of this life.

7. Websites that demean woman's natural ability to nurture and care for children or give birth in her own home and in her own ability to make decisions.  (ie. skepticalob, planned parenthood)....

Law and NT explaination: Temple, Sanctuary, Sacred Objects
