When that spirit enters the Church

In honor preferring one another. Romans 12:10

"At one time two of the disciples made a request, through their mother, for the two highest places in Christ’s kingdom. When the rest of the
disciples heard of it, they were moved with indignation against the two. They thought that it was unfair for the two to steal a march on them in a place for preferment.

Whenever a spirit of seeking a position for oneself, or a disposition to exercise authority over another, comes into the church, then it is the world, and not the church of Christ." 
E.J. Waggoner

Papal Notes - A little bit about who the new Pope Leo is named after

And he had power to give life unto the image of the beast, that the image of the beast should both speak, and cause that as many as would not worship the image of the beast should be killed. Revelation 13:15

"Another statement from the same paper from a speech by Edgar H. Gans entitled, "The Catholic Church in America," is published in the Chicago Herald of September 5, 1893. Speaking of the spirit of liberty as exemplified in the United States and gathering the statement concerning this spirit of liberty from a quotation from Webster, the speaker says:
"The Catholic church welcomes this bright and beautiful spirit and takes it to her bosom, for she is its foster mother. With tender devotion has she nourished it through the ages. Time and again has she rescued it from the bold and impious hands of despots, whether they be kings, emperors, or a popular majority enthroned. Within the church of God is the only true sovereign and the source of all power. The sovereignty of the people comes from him as a sacred trust, and they must use this trust for the common weal."

We shall find presently from the pope's encyclical that he, in the place of God, is the guardian and the source of this sovereignty. We now read the closing statement of this same speech of Mr. Gans'. 
The statement is identical with one which we read last night:
"We have among us our prophets of Israel, divinely commissioned, as
were the holy men of old, to guide, instruct, ennoble, and elevate the nation; and the
American people will have achieved their highest glory when they seek the words of wisdom and truth from their lips--when they voluntarily submit to the gentle ministrations of the priests and the bishops of the holy Catholic church."

These statements need no comment. 

We now read from a speech by Bishop John A. Waterson, of Columbus, in the Catholic Congress, and published in the Chicago Herald, November 6. His speech is upon Leo and Satolli, and he says this, speaking of Leo:
"By his personal dignity and goodness, the practical wisdom of his teachings and the firmness of his acts, he is giving the world to understand that the pope is a great thing in the world and for the world. [Loud cheers.] And intellects heretofore rebellious are accustoming themselves to think that, if society is to be saved from a condition worse in some respects than that of pagan times, it is from the Vatican the savior is to come. [Renewed cheering.]"

Now I turn to some other statements made last fall in connection
with the then coming encyclical of the
pope
A letter from Rome dated October 14, 1894, printed in the Catholic Standard of November 3, 1894, has this:
"The United States of America, it can be said without exaggeration, is the chief thought of Leo XIII in the government of the Roman and universal Catholic Church."

I would like to comment a little upon this as we go along. 
Q: Why is it that Leo thinks so constantly of the United States?"

Creation Moment 7/1/25 - The Debate

In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth. 
Genesis 1:1
"Creationists often appeal to the facts of science to support their view, and evolutionists often appeal to philosophical assumptions from outside science. 
While creationists are often criticized for starting with a bias, evolutionists also start with a bias, as many of them admit. 
The debate between creation and evolution is primarily a dispute between two worldviews, with mutually incompatible underlying assumptions."

Puritan Corner - Scripture

"Satan may allege and corrupt Scripture, but he cannot answer
Scripture. It is Christ’s word of mighty authority. Christ foiled Satan with it."

by Robert Leighton (1611-1684)
Then saith Jesus unto him, 
Get thee hence, Satan:
for it is written..... Matthew 4:10

IN the NEWS - Imagine This......

"A massive asteroid, initially feared to be on a collision course with Earth, is now predicted to potentially strike the Moon. The "city killer" asteroid YR4, roughly the size of a 10-story building, was detected in 2024 and has a chance of hitting the Moon by 2032, as per the latest forecast from NASA's Center for Near Earth Object Studies.
Experts warn that if
YR4 were to hit the Moon, the event could unleash devastation akin to an atomic explosion, potentially triggering a meteor shower that might endanger satellite systems orbiting Earth." msn

Creation Moment 6/30/2025 - Quite the Admission

Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools.... 
Romans 1:22
"Professor Richard Lewontin, a geneticist, is a renowned champion of neo-Darwinism, and certainly one of the world’s leaders in promoting evolutionary biology. He recently wrote this very revealing comment. It illustrates the implicit philosophical bias against Genesis creation regardless of whether or not the facts support it:
"We take the side of science in spite of the patent absurdity of some of its constructs, in spite of its failure to fulfil many of its extravagant
promises of health and life,
in spite of the tolerance of the scientific community for unsubstantiated just-so stories, because we have a prior commitment, a commitment to materialism. It is not that the methods and institutions of science somehow compel us to accept a material explanation of the phenomenal world, but, on the contrary, that we are forced by our a priori adherence to material causes to create an apparatus of investigation and a set of concepts that produce material explanations, no matter how counter-intuitive, no matter how mystifying to the uninitiated. Moreover, that materialism is absolute, for we cannot allow a Divine Foot in the door." CMI

When Death Enters YOUR Neighborhood

A land of darkness, as darkness itself; 
and of the shadow of death, without any order, 
and where the light is as darkness. 
Job 10:22

"But death, whenever and wherever it is seen, has a voice for us. 
*As we behold it even in the vegetable, or more especially in the animal kingdom, it is impressive. 
*When it takes one of the human race, it calls still more loudly upon us. 
**The thought which it then suggests is this: That class of beings of which I am a member, is subject to the destroyer, so that I, too, am under his power. 
But when it comes still nearer to us; when it enters a neighborhood, and an acquaintance is taken, a friend, a school-mate, a class-mate, how much more impressive is its solemn presence. 
There is, therefore, a lesson for the young in the event which we here contemplate to-day. I would then say to them, Look upon these relics of mortality, these emblems of the grave, and ask yourselves if you have any guarantee of life which he had not." 
Uriah Smith

IN the NEWS - There's More..... (plus a sidenote)

For nation shall rise against nation,
and kingdom against kingdom:
and there shall be famines,
and pestilences,
and earthquakes,
in divers places.
All these are the beginning of sorrows.
Matthew 24:7,8

There's more to follow-up last weeks post.
*CHINA: According to news reports China may be now 50%
flooded under water!
Besides last weeks flooding by the government in the west central impacting nearly 100,000,000 people (wiping out crops, farm animals and people), and the golf ball sized hail that pounded the north (killing farm animals and destroying crops) and in the south record rainfall flooding the region along with many landslides. Looting and riots in Guangdong.
Since then there has now been the biggest earthquake in a decade in China hitting the south along with a typhoon causing even more flooding. And now----the biggest wildfires on record in China
sweeping through land and cities causing the closing of businesses and schools due to smoke.....if it's not flooded it's burning....of course we can't forget their claim a few weeks ago of a
resurgent COVID pandemic.....so the worry with all this destruction of farms and farm animals is that China could face a real Famine in the near future of the likes not seen since Mao's so-called "Great Leap Forward."....time will tell........
ELSEWHERE....
*Philippines: Several more quakes including on the Philippine Trench in the ocean as well as the capital of Manilla flooded.
*Indonesia: Volcanic eruption.
*India: Major flooding and landslides in the north.
*Columbia: Flash floods sweeping away people in their beds at night in Medellin along with a loud boom under ground and collapsing of mountain.
*France: Stunning rain and hail flooding Paris in 10 minutes along with a pounding by lightning. Also more rain/flooding into northeast France to Normandy. The southwest pounded by hail.
*Germany & Austria: Massive flooding from rain and hail in southern and western Germany and parts of Austria. Germany had serious floods also last year in 2024.
*Italy: Along with the more than 15,000 recorded small quakes in the south the last couple of months---now there is a "girgling" sound detected under Naples as well as Mt. Etna having a small eruption resulting in a "unknown substance" being spit out from beneath the earth.
*Dominican Republic and Puerto Rico: An earthquake in the Caribbean resulting in damage and death in Puerto Rico and the Dominican Republic.
*Venezuela: Rains and Tidal Waves washing inland have flooded 3 western states holding 70% of the nations farmland. Also many landslides and most bridges out hampering rescue operations.
*Thailand: Massive Flooding from rains.
*U.S.A.: Hail pounded both of the Carolinas around Metro-Charlotte. Metro-Atlanta in Georgia sees serious flooding. Central New York State sees minor flooding (Some flooding in the U.S. is routine each year -- but considering the magnitude of global flooding over the last couple of weeks.....) Also major Flooding in Kentucky, West Virginia and Ohio including Dayton as well as Minneapolis, Minnesota. Hail in Florida.
Mt. St. Helens in Washington State is experiencing multiple tremors with a bulge forming near the edge of the top. The McDermitt Caldera on the Oregon-Nevada border is now heating up and rising. The heatwave gripping the Midwest is said to likely last ALL SUMMER with the only relief on days it rains. Multiple 7.0 quakes off the Aleutian Island chain of Alaska were in a cluster. That usually, but not always, precedes a major tidal wave quake at some point. This one, if were to happen there due to a bigger quake, could produce waves over 1,000 feet tall that won't stop until they reach Australia and New Zealand.
WEATHER is Getting CREEPY
See Link Below for what happened Last Week: 

It will be declared that men are offending God by the violation of the Sunday-sabbath, that this sin has brought calamities which will not cease until Sunday observance shall be strictly enforced, and that those who present the claims of the fourth commandment, thus destroying reverence for Sunday, are troublers of the people, preventing their restoration to divine favor and temporal prosperity”. E.G.W.
OBSERVE Through the PRISM of PROPHECY
And I beheld another beast coming up out of the earth; and he
had two horns like a lamb, 
and he spake as a dragon. 
And he exerciseth all the power of the first beast before him,
 and causeth the earth and them which dwell therein to worship the first beast, whose deadly wound was healed.
Revelation 13:11,12
SIDENOTE: As Trump restores America to super power status on the world stage to meet one day it's place in prophecy (by whoever is President when it comes) China, America's main rival to global leadership is being beat down.
But not only the overwhelming natural disasters pounding the nation but also it's embarrassment on the world stage over the Pakistan-
India War that lasted barely more than a weekend. Pakistan was unable to stop India at all, even from flattening it's main nuclear base. And nearly all of Pakistan's military equipment was stamped "made in China". Compare and contrast Trump's strike on Iran's nuclear sites. Imagine the message that sent to Putin and China.
And of course Trump's tariff war with China, which led to China crying uncle in a matter of weeks, nearly collapsed the Chinese economy.
IN OTHER WORDS---is anyone noticing that America's main opposition to global hegemony is slowly being reduced---militarily and economically by the U.S. President and physically by "mother nature" in a series of fast moving events?

Creation Moment 6/29/2025 - Well, Well, Well... What Do We Have Here?

For by Him were all things created, that are in heaven, and that are in earth, visible and invisible... Colossians 1:16

"The framework behind the evolutionists’ interpretation is naturalism—it is assumed that things made themselves, that no divine intervention has happened, and that God has not revealed to us knowledge about the past.
Evolution is a deduction from this assumption, and it is essentially the idea that things made themselves. 
It includes these unproven ideas: 
*nothing gave rise to something at an alleged ‘big bang,’ 
*non-living matter gave rise to life, 
*single-celled organisms gave rise to many-celled organisms, *invertebrates gave rise to vertebrates, 
*ape-like creatures gave rise to man, 
*non-intelligent and amoral matter gave rise to intelligence and morality, man’s yearnings gave rise to religions, etc.

Professor D.M.S. Watson, one of the leading biologists and science writers of his day, demonstrated the atheistic bias behind much evolutionary thinking when he wrote:

"Evolution [is] a theory universally accepted not because it can be proven by logically coherent evidence to be true, but because the only alternative, special creation, is clearly incredible."

So it’s not a question of biased religious creationists versus objective scientific evolutionists; rather, it is the biases of the Christian religion versus the biases of the religion of secular humanism resulting in different interpretations of the same scientific data. As the anti-creationist science writer Boyce Rensberger admits:
"At this point, it is necessary to reveal a little inside information about how scientists work, something the textbooks don’t usually tell you. The fact is that scientists are not really as objective and
dispassionate in their work as they would like you to think.
Most scientists first get their ideas about how the world works not through rigorously logical processes but through hunches and wild guesses. As individuals, they often come to believe something to be true long before they assemble the hard evidence that will convince somebody else that it is. Motivated by faith in his own ideas and a desire for acceptance by his peers, a scientist will labor for years knowing in his heart that his theory is correct but devising experiment after experiment whose results he hopes will support his position."

It’s not really a question of who is biased, but which bias is the correct bias with which to be biased!" CMI

Every soul

For God shall bring every work into judgment, with every secret
thing, whether it be good, or whether it be evil.
Ecclesiastes 12:4
"Every soul must answer in the judgment for everything that he has done here, and must meet there and bear the consequence of what he has done here." 
A.T. Jones

Scoffers

"If you are sharing God’s Word faithfully, there will be scoffers. In fact, we should expect scoffers.
In 2 Peter 3, we are warned that the most basic teachings of God’s Word—concerning creation, the flood, and Christ’s second coming and judgment by fire—will be scoffed at: “Knowing this first of all, that scoffers will come in the last days with scoffing, following
their own sinful desires. They will say, ‘Where is the promise of His coming
For ever since the fathers fell asleep, all things are continuing as they were from the beginning of creation.’ For they deliberately overlook this fact, that the heavens existed long ago, and the earth was formed out of water and through water by the word of God, and that by means of these the world that then existed was deluged with water and perished” (2 Peter 3:3–6).
Yes, if we are staying true to God’s Word and we “contend for the faith” (Jude 1:3), we will have scoffers from inside and outside the church." KenHam

Isaac / Christ Parallels

"Often, people who were important in the line of the Messiah foreshadow Him in some way, and we see this with the sacrifice of Isaac
God calls Isaac Abraham’s “only son … whom you love”. There is a parallel when God says to Jesus, “You are My beloved Son” (Mark 1:11). Isaac, like Jesus
--was sacrificed willingly without a struggle and carried the wood for his own sacrifice,
--just as Jesus carried His own cross.
The parallels end, however, 
--when God stops Abraham from killing his son.
--God showed no mercy to His own Son, because God’s wrath poured out on Jesus is what allows Him to show mercy to those who trust in Jesus’ sacrifice. 
The ram, sacrificed instead of Isaac, then serves as another picture of Jesus—God’s Lamb slain as our substitute."

Creation Moment 6/28/2025 - This is Creation

For we are His workmanship created in Christ Jesus. 
 Ephesians 2:10

"Thus Christianity is creation. 
And this is just what every professed Christian needs to learn; that
Christianity is creation, not evolution;
that Christian experience at the beginning and always is by creation, not by evolution; that it is “immediate,” “sudden,” “now,” and not a long, tedious struggle, and even then still unaccomplished. 
Every soul who has had the glorious experience of the divine forgiveness and conversion, knows full well that it was accomplished “immediately,” “suddenly,” “now.” 
And that is creation."

Blotting Out of Sin & Latter Rain

Repent therefore, and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out so that the times of refreshing shall come from the presence of the Lord. ... Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and you shall receive the gif of the Holy Ghost. Acts 3;19/2:28

"The First Blotting Out of Sin 
This takes place before the judgment when sins are re moved from the sinner to the heavenly sanctuary. 
*In this case the gift of the Holy Spirit or Latter Rain power cannot
come unless the sins have been removed from the sinner and sent beforehand to judgment. 
The Second Blotting Out of Sin 
This takes place after the judgment when sins are removed from the sanctuary to the scapegoat. 
*In this case the Latter Rain power must come before the removal of the sins from the heavenly sanctuary to the scape goat for eternal destruction." 
E.B.

Creation Moment 6/27/2025 - Materialistic ideology & 2 Peter 3:3

Knowing this first, 
that there shall come in the last days scoffers,... 2 Peter 3:3
"Materialistic ideology has subverted the study of biological and
cosmological origins so that the actual content of these sciences has become corrupted. 
The problem, therefore, is not merely 
---that science is being used illegitimately to promote a materialistic worldview, 
---but that this worldview is actively undermining scientific inquiry, leading to incorrect and unsupported conclusions about biological and cosmological origins."

Debate over Babel Settlement

"Who settled at Shinar (Babel) in Genesis 11:1–9?
Q: Was it all the people of the earth or only a particular group of
people? 

--The traditional Biblical creationist answer to this question is that all the people of the earth settled at Shinar. 
--However, some Biblical creationists have diverted from this position and argue that, after the flood, Genesis 10 documents groups of people spreading out over the earth and that Genesis 11 gives the explanation of one of those groups of people migrating to a plain in Shinar to build the world’s first major city. 
The most prominent proponent of this position, Dr. Douglas Petrovich, comments on Genesis 11:1–2:
"During the time when all mankind on the surface of the earth conversed with a single, universal language, some undefined number of them moved westward and settled on a plain that was in the land of Shinar (Šumer, from Akkadian, Šumeru). . . . It is a misconception of ours to think that the Biblical text [Genesis 11:1–2] is saying all of the people who were existing on the earth went to one place and lived there. The Bible never says that that is in our conceptions, and that is a wrong conception we read into the text."
Petrovich believes Genesis 11 describes a technologically advanced people who were suddenly dispersed throughout the ancient Near East. He concludes that the evidence that best describes people moving toward urban living in one place is found in Eridu, southern Šumer, southern Mesopotamia. Petrovich, who follows the chronology of the Septuagint (LXX) in Genesis 11, believes this took place roughly 500 years after the flood (c. 3168 BC) around 2650 BC. There are, however, textual reasons why the Masoretic Text (MT) should be seen as being superior to the Septuagint in Genesis 5 and 11.

Q: Is it true that only some undefined number of people settled at Shinar?
Genesis 10 is divided into three sections, one for each son: Japheth (10:2–5), Ham (10:6–20), and Shem (10:21–31). In each genealogy, there is a reoccurring pattern; people spread (Genesis 10:32) into “lands,” “languages,” “clans,” and “nations” (Genesis 10:5, 20, 31).

Kenneth Mathews notes, 
“This rearrangement sandwiches the tower incident between the two accounts of the Shem genealogy (10:21–31; 11:10–26). It also shows that the tower debacle resulted in the dispersion of the nations, of which Shem’s descendants were a part.”
The first genealogy (10:21–31) completes the table of nations and leads to the Babel event: (Shem → Eber → Peleg). The second genealogy (11:10–26) continues with the direct descendants of Shem (Shem → Eber → Terah) and leads to the account of the call of Abraham.

Genesis 11 commences with the whole earth speaking one language, and so, it sets the narrative chronologically before Genesis 10, as there the nations are arranged by their own languages. It is common
in Genesis to give the explanation of the event after the narration of the event (cf.
Genesis 1:26–28, 2:7, 22). The confusion of the one language at Babel (Genesis 11:9) is the reason why there are multiple languages in Genesis 10. Genesis 11 tells us how and why the dispersal of languages and peoples across the whole earth happened in Genesis 10.

The actual time of the dispersal at Babel most likely took place in the days of Peleg (Genesis 10:25). Although exactly at what point in Peleg’s life is debated. Based on the MT, if the dispersion is linked with Peleg’s birth, then this suggests the Babel incident occurred around 106 years after the flood. If the dispersion happened at the end Peleg’s life, then this is around 340 years after the flood. Alternatively, the phrase “in his days” (בימיו) could indicate that it happened during his lifespan or at a time when he was prominent.

Genesis 11:1 introduces the unity of mankind, “Now the whole earth had one language and the same words.” The first verse beings with the phrase “the whole earth” (kol-hāʾāreṣ). The phrase “the whole earth” appears five times in nine verses (vv. 1, 4, 8, and twice in v. 9). Significantly, Genesis 11:1–9 begins and ends with the phrase “the whole earth.” 
Since the dispersion from Babel is tied to the table of nations (Genesis 10), the context would indicate that the phrase “the whole earth” refers to all the people of the earth collectively.

Q: How large was the population of people who settled at Babel? 
A: It could have been anything from 1,000 to 10,000 people. This would be enough people to build a city and a tower.

The Babel narrative ends the way it began, with a reference to all the earth, “Therefore its name was called Babel, because there the Lord confused the language of all the earth. And from there the Lord dispersed them over the face of all the earth” (Genesis 11:9). It was at Babel that God confused the language of all the earth. But if all the earth did not settle at Shinar and it was only a group of post-flood people, then how did God confuse the language of all the earth at Babel (Genesis 11:9)? 
The disobedience of the people at Babel caused God to reverse their plan by confusing the language of all the earth and dispersing them over the face of the earth (Genesis 11:8–9)."

Creation Moment 6/26/2025 - 150 Million Years?

"Experts and educators have long assumed Archaeopteryx represents a transition from theropod dinosaurs to modern birds. All of this speculation depends on the fossils having been deposited many millions of years ago. But a newly described Chicago specimen—the fourteenth known Archaeopteryx—seems to have preserved original body tissues that would deflate its assumed old age and thus the evolutionary tales that require all those supposed years.

Publishing in Nature, a team led by the Chicago Field Museum’s associate curator of fossil reptiles, Jiangmai O’Connor, used UV light to distinguish differences between materials, and some of them looked like original biomaterials.

The Field Museum press release said that Archaeopteryx lived about 150 million years ago during the Jurassic Period” and “is the fossil that proved Darwin right.” However, if the tissues they described could not last even one million years, then both Darwin and “150 million years” are wrong.

The study authors used the following phrases to describe the “soft tissues of the extremities:” “skin covering the right major digit of the hand is preserved,” showing a “clear outline of the skin along the major digit.” 
Further, “The plantar foot pads are partially preserved…visible under ultraviolet light.” 
This long-buried bird still has its “toe pads preserved.” Indeed, the images are stunning. They show clear color and texture differences between limestone matrix, bone, skin, and even the toe claws’ “keratinous sheath.”

Like horns and fingernails, claws have always had a bone at the core with keratin wrapped around and extending from it. However, keratin is a protein. Studies on protein decay have proven that chemicals relentlessly react with them. Amino acids that comprise proteins have inherent aspects that attract reactions with many nearby chemicals like water and oxygen.
Such biochemical decay studies show that even the toughest proteins cannot last one million years, assuming a constant and common temperature. This renders the fossil layer’s 150-million-year age assignment impossible.

Although this Nature paper did not chemically investigate what these tissues are made of—whether mineral replacement or what remains from original biochemicals—certain observations make a strong case that these are indeed the original bone, skin, and claw tissues. For one, each tissue type shows a different color. The bone looks off-white—like old bones do. The skin looks, well, skin-tone. And UV light revealed the claws’ “keratinous sheath” as slightly lighter and more yellow than the bone.

If minerals had replaced those original tissues with mere outlines of where those tissues had long before lain—as is the case with many other fossils—then how could three separate minerals each have selected its own tissue to perfectly replace?
Nor is it likely that such minerals could have replaced those tissues so completely without crystallizing at least a little bit beyond the body parts’ exact outlines. 
Q: Similarly, what minerals could so perfectly mimic original tissue colors?

The study authors concluded in part, “Data from the Chicago specimen reveal new information regarding the skeletal and soft tissue transformations associated with the pivotal transition from fully terrestrial to volant.” In other words, they claim that the data—including bird tissues—reveal something (but they don’t say what) about how some ancient land-walker transformed over millions of years into today’s flyers. Ironically, however, the very tissue that they folded into the mandatory evolutionary story deletes that same story by refuting its required long ages.

Q: So, was Archaeopteryx indeed the fossil that proved Darwin
right? 
A: According to their own analysis, Archaeopteryx was good at both flying and walking, “similar to pigeons and doves.” So, no. It’s just a dead bird.

The Genesis Flood paints a grim picture where this bird may have fallen from the sky from exhaustion or got swept it off its feet during the Flood. Limey mud soon hardened into the Solnhofen limestone that surrounded it and so many other fossils when it was buried only 4,500 or so years ago. 
No wonder it refutes evolution by looking like a fully formed bird that was entombed recently enough for some of its skin to have been preserved."
