It's not like

 

people don't know this:

The US Navy's overreliance on top missile interceptors

 is 'unsustainable' in more intense fights, top admiral warns

Business Insider 

7/15/25

July of last year.

They knew it a year ago.

Ignoring the reality we face 

and just choosing to believe 

what you want, 

is just flat out stupidity.

• The US Navy has expended a lot of high-end ballistic missile interceptors in recent air defense operations.
• 
  
• A top admiral told BI that this practice is "unsustainable" in high-tempo combat operations.
• 
  
• Adm. James Kilby said cheaper alternatives are needed to preserve critical munitions stockpiles.

"US warships fighting around the Middle East have been leaning hard on its best ballistic missile interceptors. That won't be sustainable in high-tempo combat operations that can fast consume key munitions, a top Navy admiral cautioned."

"Kilby said the Navy has fired "significant numbers of advanced munitions" in support of these operations. However, "while the Navy remains fully capable and ready to respond to any contingency today, the pace and volume of these high-end weapon expenditures were neither anticipated by the Navy nor the defense industrial base."

You just might wanna brace yourselves... 

China, Russia, US and Iran...Four winds leveling much?

"What began as tactical cooperation is crystallising into a strategic partnership, creating the adversarial coalition American policy precisely has historically sought to prevent."

( I 100 % disagree.

This has been the plan all along.

Draw down NATO arms?

Increase Carrier and crew wear and tear

Check.

Get the US and Israel to use

Check.

It didn't just all the sudden turn

"Strategic" over night by chance.

This is how you bring down Goliath.

Coordination, Collusion, Working together.

It wasnt an accident.

It was inevitable.)

It was done on purpose.

Our adversaries knew we couldn't replace them

at the rate we were going to need to be able to.

So they had us use a lot of them 

in the "run up" or the "softening us up"

till we got to the point where we are 

right now today.)

"Navy leadership has pointed to the Red Sea conflict as a clear example of the problem, as US warships have been forced to expend multimillion-dollar missiles to destroy cheap Houthi drones that can cost just thousands of dollars."

(Tuesday, July 8, 2025

There just

 

aint no easy way to put it.

Were Screwed.

First the "fluffier" piece from the AP.

Pentagon pause on arms shipments to Ukraine 

part of a global review of pressures on stockpiles

AP 7/02/25

"The Navy also has defended ships in the Red Sea by striking Houthi weapons and launch sites in Yemen with Tomahawk missiles. In one day in January 2024, it fired more Tomahawks than the Navy had purchased the prior year, said Mackenzie Eaglen, a senior defense fellow at the American Enterprise Institute."

And it's not just the naval ones.

US used about a quarter of its high-end missile interceptors in Israel-Iran war, exposing supply gap 

CNN 7/31/25

"The United States blew through about a quarter of its supply of high-end THAAD missile interceptors during Israel’s 12-day war with Iran in June, according to two sources familiar with the operation, thwarting attacks at a rate that vastly outpaces production."

"US forces countered Tehran’s barrage of ballistic missiles by firing more than 100 THAADs (short for Terminal High Altitude Area Defense) – and possibly as many as 150 – a significant portion of America’s stockpile of the advanced air defense system, the sources said. The US has seven THAAD systems, and used two of them in Israel in the conflict."

"Former US defense officials and missile experts told CNN that the rapid drawdown has also raised concerns about America’s global security posture and ability to regenerate supplies at speed.

"Last year,  (2024) the US procured only 11 new THAAD interceptors and is expected to receive just 12 more this fiscal year, according to the 2026 budget estimates from the Department of Defense."

"The number of THAADs spent in the 12-day war was first reported by The Wall Street Journal."

(Just in case 

you got something against CNN.

You got something against the WSJ too?)

"Despite the heavy use of THAADs during the 12-day war to help fend off Tehran’s assault last month, dozens of Iranian missiles still struck Israel."

"THAAD is a mobile system that can engage and destroy short-, medium-, and intermediate-range ballistic missiles both inside and outside of the Earth’s atmosphere during their final phase of flight. Each battery is operated by 95 American soldiers, armed with six launchers, and 48 interceptors. The interceptors are manufactured by Lockheed Martin and cost roughly $12.7 million, according to the 2025 Missile Defense Agency budget.

"The US plans to acquire 37 THAAD interceptors next year, according to the 2026 Department of defense budget estimates,..."

(This was written last year, so that is this year now. each system takes 48 interceptors, were not gonna get enough this year to refill one system...)

“The reports about THAAD expenditure are concerning. This is not the sort of thing that the US can afford to continue to do on and on,” he added. “It was a major commitment to our Israeli ally, but missile defense interceptor capacity is definitely a concern, and THAAD is a very scarce resource.”

(Our adversaries knew it.

Thats why they made us use them.)

"US interceptor stockpile concerns preceded the 12-day war, according to four former senior US defense officials who say that the problem is most acute in inventories of high-end interceptors that are a key part of deterrence against China."

"There are nine active THAAD batteries globally, according to manufacturer Lockheed Martin. The US military has seven of those and plans to have an eighth active by 2025, 

(It has since been delivered.)

according to the Congressional Research Service. Data available in 2019 showed that five of the US’ THAADs were stationed at bases in Texas, 

(See: Southern Route.

as it explains 

why FIVE of those are in Texas.)

one in Guam and one in South Korea; by last year, the Pentagon had moved two of those batteries to the Middle East to protect Israel."

"Missile shortages and damage in Israel

While most of Iran’s missiles were downed by Israeli and US air defenses, experts, open-source data and video from the ground reviewed by CNN showed that dozens did manage to get through. Tehran’s success rate rose as the war raged on, amounting to some of the worst damage Israel has seen in decades."

(That is only going to get worse now.)

"Analysis conducted by DC-based think tank Jewish Institute for National Security of America (JINSA) estimated that THAADs – alongside Israel’s Arrow-2 and Arrow-3 interceptors – downed 201 of Iran’s 574 missiles, with 57 hitting populated areas. The report estimated that the US’ THAAD system accounted for almost half of all interceptions, indicating that Israel’s Arrow interceptor stockpiles were insufficient. Israel’s Iron Dome system was designed to deflect shorter-range rockets than those being fired by Iran."

“After burning through a large portion of their available interceptors, the United States and Israel both face an urgent need to replenish stockpiles and sharply increase production rates,” Ari Cicurel, author of the report, wrote, estimating that it would take three to eight years to replenish at current production rates."

(I keep trying to tell ya,

That is why Israel didn't wanna do this right now.)

"According to data compiled by JINSA, interception rates lagged as the war wore on. Only 8% of Iranian missiles penetrated defenses in the first week of the war. That doubled to 16% in the second half of the conflict and eventually culminated at 25% on the final day of the war before the ceasefire."

(That along with Centcom's forward operating secure communications hub 

at our air base in Qatar being hit were the main reasons forthe reason

 there was a ceasefire, DUH.)

"Analysts say there are several possible reasons for the trend, including an Iranian shift of focus from military targets to populated urban areas, where interception is less robust. Iran also fired more sophisticated missiles as the war progressed."

(Now they have more of them and they have more advanced capabilities than they did before.)

“(Iran) increasingly employed more advanced systems,” said Mora Deitch, head of the data analytics center at Israel’s Institute for National Security Studies (INSS). “These included newer missiles with multiple warheads or decoys, which may individually cause less damage but can overwhelm and saturate air defense systems.”

(They were saying:

"See what we got?

Keep this up and you will get a lot more of them in the future."

That future is here now.)

"Still missile defense analysts say they saw clear signs of air defense depletion. “The presence of the THAAD battery in the first place suggests that the Israelis don’t have a super deep interceptor magazine,” said Sam Lair, research associate at the James Martin Center for Nonproliferation Studies (CNS)."

“Israel was relatively successful in defending (with the US assistance) against unsophisticated Iranian missiles – at the cost of depleting available arsenals of interceptors.”

(How many times you gotta say:

"That was the plan!")

"The problem for the US is especially acute in the Indo-Pacific where China has tried to keep the US navy at arm’s length, experts say."

“From a narrowly military standpoint, the Chinese are absolutely the winners in that these last almost two years in the Middle East have seen the US expend pretty substantial amounts of capabilities that the American defense industrial base will find pretty hard to replace,” said Sidharth Kaushal, senior research fellow at Royal United Services Institute."

(Keep trying to tell people it was part of the plan.)

"Ex-defense officials said dwindling defensive capabilities in the Indo-Pacific was a growing concern for the former administration of President Joe Biden as they used the US stockpile to battle Yemen’s Houthi rebels.

“God forbid there should be a conflict in the Pacific, for example, then it really will put a huge strain our missile capacity and the ability for our military to have the munitions necessary to keep up,” said one former senior Biden administration defense official with direct knowledge of the US campaign against the Houthis.

(It the whole reason they had us use them.)

"a conflict in the Pacific"

Thats next, count on it.)

It aint just me saying it...

 And others 

as well as myself

 have been saying this

 for four or five years already.

Former CIA officer 

John Kiriakou: 

“I was talking to Doug MacGregor 

about Iran's hypersonic missiles. 

And I asked, 

Can an aircraft carrier defend itself 

from a hypersonic missile? 

And he said, 

NO, 

there's no defense 

from a hypersonic missile.”

“The Iranians have hypersonics.”

The Iranians are not scared 

of US 

for a reason.

Your world is on the verge of changing 

very drastically

in the next few days/weeks.

(I really dont see it being months.)

"Four winds leveling much?

US, China, Russia 

and a Muslim component 

almost equal in power.

How much longer 

do you think the angels 

are gonna keep 

holding them back?

Revelation

(Seven = completion

And after these things 

I saw four angels 

standing on the four corners of the earth,

 holding the four winds of the earth, 

that the wind should not blow on the earth, 

nor on the sea, nor on any tree.

"How much longer

Apparently not that much longer.

Anywhere from a few days 

to a few months tops.

OF HISTORY?

HOW IS THAT POSSIBLE?

UNLESS YOU JUST

DONT WANNA ADMIT IT

for this piece.

Since 6/15/2017:

Revelation 7:1

"Four Winds" 

has been mentioned on here 

approximately 130x.

I'll quote from that original piece 

along with some additional information

at the end.

The new calculus in the Gulf: 

How Beijing and Moscow 

have altered the Iran equation

The Middle East Monitor 2/17/25

 "For President Trump, the goal remains unchanged: the same triad of demands that Iran ceases its enrichment activities, dismantles its missile program, and severs its “axis of resistance” connections...

the calculus 

on the ground—and in the water—

has fundamentally changed 

due to the reality of the new, 

tri-polar world that has emerged."

 "US military planners reached a pragmatic realization: the theatre of operations in the Persian Gulf had been fundamentally re-engineered. The introduction of Chinese Type 055 “super destroyers” and signals intelligence ships into the Gulf of Oman has effectively ended 

the era of US operational surprise.

(Four winds leveling much?)

"The question is 

no longer 

whether Washington 

can force Iranian capitulation 

through coercion, 

but whether it 

possesses the military options 

and political will to act 

in an environment 

where costs have escalated dramatically, 

and the likelihood of success 

has diminished correspondingly."

(That is 100% the case.

Our adversaries have increased in strength

while ours has diminished.

During the 2003 Gulf War

at different times?

As many as six carriers in the region,

now to get two there?

the second one had to have been at sea 

almost 8 moths already.

(Deployment extended twice.)

It aint good.

Not at all.)

"The deployment of the Type 055 class vessels—rated by naval analysts as the world’s most capable surface combatants—represents far more than a “freedom of navigation” exercise. With the Type 055 and the Liaowang-1 surveillance vessel now positioned in the Gulf of Oman, Iran enjoys a 24/7 “god’s eye view” of US Navy movements. Through integration with China’s Beidou satellite network, the Islamic Republic now possesses intelligence capabilities rivalling top-tier NATO members."

(Four winds leveling much?)

"Every carrier movement, every aerial refuelling track, every missile cruiser repositioning is now visible to Tehran in near-real-time,” noted one Pentagon official speaking on background. 

“We’ve lost the element of surprise 

we’ve relied on for decades.”

(Four winds leveling much?)

"For Beijing, this is neither ideological posturing nor empty symbolism—it is cold strategic calculation. Iran represents the indispensable Western node of the Belt and Road Initiative, the critical energy supplier that cannot be permitted to fall under Western control."

"The loss of Iran to a NATO-aligned entity would constitute an unmitigated economic and geopolitical disaster that Beijing is manifestly unwilling to permit."

"Russia’s “unseen” support

Moscow’s contribution, while less visible than China’s naval deployment, may prove equally consequential. During the twelve-day conflict that tested Iranian infrastructure and resolve, Russian support transcended mere rhetoric. When Israeli and American cyberattacks crippled Iran’s communications network—a sophisticated operation designed to blind Tehran’s command structure—Russian technical teams arrived within 48 hours, working alongside Iranian engineers to restore critical infrastructure."

"While China secures the waves, 

Moscow secures the wires. 

Since the June 2025 ceasefire, an uninterrupted sequence of Russian military cargo flights has delivered what intelligence officials describe as “unseen” capabilities, reportedly including:

Advanced air defenses: Upgraded S-400 components replacing batteries lost to Israeli strikes

Hardened communications: Encrypted systems designed to withstand the “cyber-tsunamis” that temporarily disabled Iran’s grid

Satellite intelligence: The recent Jam-e Jam 1 satellite launch aboard a Russian Proton-M rocket has dramatically enhanced Iran’s ability to coordinate regional operations, even under total internet blackout conditions

(Four winds leveling much?

That is China, US, Russia and Iran

all packed tightly together

in the middle east.

20 years ago people were talking 

about this happening.

Now its here and its nothing but crickets

and its just sickening...

It really is.

Shame on any and all of us

for not seeing and saying 

to others what it really is.

"The emergence of a new reality

The regional security architecture continues evolving in directions profoundly unfavorable to American interests. Each month without resolution sees deeper integration of Iranian, Chinese, and Russian systems—militarily, economically, and in intelligence sharing. What began as tactical cooperation is crystallising into a strategic partnership, creating the adversarial coalition American policy precisely has historically sought to prevent."

( I 100 % disagree.

This has been the plan all along.

Draw down NATO arms?

(Russia/Ukraine)

before China vs Taiwan?

"Strategic" over night by chance.

This is how you bring down Goliath.

Coordination, Collusion, Working together.

It wasnt an accident.

It was inevitable.)

"Washington’s current “negotiating” posture—predicated on conditions resembling unconditional surrender—confronts an immovable object. Iran views itself as a sovereign nation operating outside the U.S.-led financial system, now possessing the “technological buoyancy” provided by great power patrons that eliminates any imperative to capitulate."

"What the administration must confront is the prospect of another January-style hesitation. Should Trump choose to “knock down” Iran’s nuclear program, as he has publicly threatened, he will not face the Iran of the past. He will face a nation operating under a Sino-Russian intelligence umbrella that has transformed every U.S. naval movement into a publicly observable event in Tehran."

"As joint Iran-China-Russia naval exercises 

approach in mid-February,"

(What Iran’s Naval Exercise With China And Russia I

n The Strait Of Hormuz Actually Means

TWZ 2/18/26)

the “New Axis” delivers an unmistakable message to Washington: the Persian Gulf is no longer an American lake, and the cost of carrying out an Israeli-driven mandate may soon prove too steep for this administration to bear."

(Again, I disagree

Israel didn't want this right now.

They would have preferred to have waited.

They know they aren't as prepared

as they would like to be.

And they know the areas 

in which Iran has improved.

It's like Iran survived 

the first round with Tyson

(US and Israel.)

and it now knows 

it can take him 

into the latter rounds,

(Aided by China and Iran)

strategy

of a first round KO

just did not materialize.

During the 12 day opening round last year, many commentators were quick to point out China and Russia didn't come to Irans help. 

I said just what I said above, 

why should they have?

They knew it was the opening round

and that this was coming.)

"The question haunting the Situation Room is whether policymakers will recognize this new reality 

(We know whats up.

We know the situation

 will only get worse

the longer we wait.

It's go time

for everybody.)

before testing it—

or whether the ghosts 

of the Twelve-Day War

(At this point?

"or whether the ghosts

will be joined by spectres 

far more terrible."

What do you think

you should be expecting 

to happen? 

Revelation 16:14-16

For they are the spirits of devils, working miracles, which go forth unto the kings of the earth and of the whole world, to gather them to the battle of that great day of God Almighty.

15 Behold, I come as a thief. Blessed is he that watcheth, and keepeth his garments, lest he walk naked, and they see his shame.

16 And he gathered them together into a place called in the Hebrew tongue Armageddon.

China Deploys 

One of the World's 

Most Powerful Destroyers Near Iran 

as Western Attack Looms -Reports

Military Watch Magazine Editorial Staff

2/10/26

"A number of sources have reported that the Chinese People’s Liberation Army Navy has deployed a Type 055 class destroyer to lead a contingent for operations around the Gulf of Oman and northern Indian Ocean, including a smaller Type 052D class destroyer, and the Liaowang-1 maritime space-tracking and surveillance ship. At a time when the United States and several of its security partners in the Western world are considering launching an attack on Iran, these reported deployments have fuelled speculation that the Liaowang-1 and accompanying destroyers may be in the region to monitor the movements of U.S. Navy and other Western warships, allowing intelligence to be passed onto Iran. The importance of Iran to Chinese security interests makes this highly possible. If confirmed, this would have the potential to help deter a Western attack, removing the element of surprise from strikes launched and likely enabling Iranian forces to conduct more effective retaliation if the U.S. proceeds to initiate hostilities."

Chinese Liaowang-1 Intelligence Ship

"On February 10 Chinese sources publicised satellite footage showing a newly installed U.S. Army THAAD anti-ballistic missile system at the Muwaffaq Al Salti Air Base in Jordan, the primary hub of the recent U.S. military buildup, including a command post, a long-range multifunctional radar, and six launchers. The publication of this footage may be intended to send a signal that Chinese forces are wiling to provide satellite and other kinds of intelligence support to Iran. Complementing satellite data and the Liaowang-1’s vast sensor array, Type 055 destroyers integrate dual band radar systems similar to the SPY-3/SPY-4, which the U.S. Navy had intended but failed to integrate onto the Zumwalt class destroyer, 

which provide advanced 

over the horizon 

tracking capabilities. 

These sensors have the potential 

to provide targeting data 

to support Iranian missile, 

drone and possibly even 

air defence operations."

"The Type 055 and Type 052D’s defensive capabilities are expected to ensure that Western Bloc forces do not seek to directly target Chinese forces providing intelligence support, contrasting with the bombing of the military section of the Chinese embassy in Yugoslavia in 1999 after it had reportedly been used to relay communications for Yugoslav forces against NATO attacks at the time. The Type 055 in particular is widely considered the most capable destroyer class in the world, with investments in large scale procurements of the ships and the complementary Type 052D class having totally transformed China’s ability to project power at sea over the last decade. Experience using the ships’ sensors and data sharing systems in an active war zone is also expected to be highly valued should the United States and its strategic partners proceed with an attack."

"The Chinese People’s Liberation Army’s provision of extensive satellite and other support to Iran would be far from unprecedented, with similar support widely reported to have been provided to Pakistan during Indian-Pakistani hostilities in May 2025, providing the latter with a distinct advantage during the conflict. There has been speculation that BeiDou stations may have been delivered to Iran to further strengthen its ability to receive support. While there have also been unconfirmed reports from regional sources from mid-2025 that Iran had received Chinese long range air defence systems to replenish its defences, the provision of intelligence support would potentially have a significantly greater impact on the conflict if confirmed, and could serve as a major force multiplier for Iran’s vast ballistic missile arsenal, which was confirmed during hostilities in June to have included both multi-warhead and hypersonic ballistic missiles. 

 

Why Iran’s Use of Multi-Warhead Missiles Caused Significant Issues for Israeli Air Defences

Military Watch Magazine 6/24/25

Iran Launches First Strike on Israel Using Mach 13+ Fattah Hypersonic Missile: Can it Turn the Tide of the War?

Military Watch Magazine 6/18/25

TBH? I thought we were putting all the growler electronic warfare fighters in the region because we dont trust our ships defenses against Iran's missiles. Which may still be part of the calculus, but now there is another reason for having so many of them in the region and that would be to limit Chinas surveillance capabilities that it could share with Iran.

Revelation 7:1

“And after these things I saw four angels standing on the four corners of the earth, holding the four winds of the earth, that the wind should not blow on the earth, non the sea, nor on any tree”

The four winds being held back could be considered to be:

Terrorism:

It's not going to go away. It's only going to continue and get more widespread in more areas affecting more people than it is currently. Everything we've done the last 15 years or so only seems to have made matters worse. To me that's not an accident, that's an indication that this is how things are going to go. Think about this for a second, the African AIDS crisis created millions of orphans, millions. No economic opportunities, corrupt, week governments with little influence, no education, social programs etc. Where do you think these young men will turn? Think there might be a reason the US has a Combined Joint Task Force in Djibouti? A side issue with this is the European immigrant crisis from north Africa and the Middle east will continue to worsen.

China:

South China Sea anybody? Right now about one third of all the worlds maritime trade passes through these waters. Almost as much oil passes through this trade route as flows through the Straight of Hormuz, the Persian Gulf choke-point. With the economies of Asia growing these numbers are going to increase in the coming years. China (like Russia) wants more control and influence over the areas closest to it's region of the world. They don't want to project a forward base of power (they only have a couple of aircraft carriers), instead they want to be able to influence their own backyard. This is why they, again, like the Russians, have concentrated on land to sea and air to air missile technology. They knew a long time ago it would be foolish and expensive to take on US naval power head to head. Why go for a full on frontal assault when you can be just as effective with a lateral attack? Symbolically speaking anyway.

US:

Death by a thousand paper cuts anyone? Our standing in the world morally, economically and militarily is destined to continue to decline.

Russia:

Another player that seeks to increase it's presence in it's own backyard. Think the Balkans, The Caucasus and Eastern Europe. It's like China in the fact that it doesn't want a forward operating presence out in the world, it just wants greater control and influence in it's own region. Again no need to build up an expensive fleet of carriers to compete, just concentrate on land to sea and air to air missile technology. Developing EMP technologies doesn't hurt either.

Right now? These four winds are being restrained. When they are equal in strength and some other factors are reached? Look out, Gods angels will release them.

Thats here right now.

"How much longer 

do you think the angels 

are gonna keep 

holding them back?"

Apparently not that much longer.

Anywhere from a few days 

to a few months tops."

Four winds mentioned on here 

130x since 2017.

Its why I dont  listen to

"Podcast" or "Internet personalities."

My posistion on 

"The fourth wind"

has evolved in those 9 years

from:

Terrorism, to Perverted Islam

To ISIS, To Turkey.

(THE US CHINA AND RUSSIA ARE SET.)

Suffice it to say

The forth wind 

is an Islamic component.

These days I think it varies.

In one situation in may be Turkey.

In another it could be 

a resurgent ISIS

in the Syrian Army.

Right now?

It's pretty obvious

it's Iran.

The Ayatollah (Clerical Religious Leader of Iran) made the comment the other day that we have been trying to take them down since the Iranian Revolution in 79 and there have been multiple instances in that time frame where they have seemsed to be on the ropes.

Ever occur to anybody 

they were supposed to still be around 

for such a time as this

???????????

Just wondering.

You are about to see

attacks on Israel

and our ships

and military bases in the region

that you never ever thought 

you would see.

So yeah:

"You just might wanna brace yourselves... China, Russia, US and Iran...

Four winds leveling much?"

Indeed.

Matthew 17, "Transfiguration Sunday", few other things, Lectionary etc...

"Transfiguration Sunday"

Our Church celebrated it this past Sunday.

First the text: 

Matthew 17

17 And after six days Jesus taketh Peter, James, and John his brother, and bringeth them up into an high mountain apart,

(Right before completion.

Crucifixion, Resurrection and Ascension 

are all on the horizon.)

 

2 And was transfigured before them: 

and his face did 

shine as the sun, 

and his raiment was

(Clothing)

 white as the light.

3 And, behold, 

there appeared unto them 

Moses and Elias talking with him.

("The Law" and "The Prophets"

and now something greater than those two

as well as 

the coming the fulfillment of them

was on hand.

Pulpit Commentary

"Here were the representatives of the Law and the prophets, the principal supporters of the old covenant, honouring him who was introducing the new covenant, which was to fulfil and supersede the previous one. Spurious, degraded Judaism rejected Christ's claims; real, orthodox Judaism acknowledged him and reverenced him as the Christ foretold and fort, shadowed, "of whom Moses and the prophets did write" (John 1:45). 

4 Then answered Peter, and said unto Jesus, Lord, it is good for us to be here: if thou wilt, let us make here three tabernacles; one for thee, and one for Moses, and one for Elias.

("Tabernacles"

Some versions render as 

 "tent" or "shelter"

In any event a 

"temporary shelter"

is suggested.)

5 While he yet spake, 

behold, a bright cloud 

overshadowed them: 

and behold a voice out of the cloud, 

which said, 

This is my beloved Son, 

in whom I am well pleased; hear ye him.

6 And when the disciples heard it, 

they fell on their face, and were sore afraid.

7 And Jesus came and touched them, 

and said, Arise, and be not afraid.

(Experiencing the Supernatural 

first hand 

has got a certain way of

"grabbing you by the boo-boo"

to borrow a phrase 

by Cheech and Chong.)

8 And when they had lifted up their eyes, 

they saw no man, save Jesus only.

9 And as they came down from the mountain, Jesus charged them, saying, Tell the vision to no man, until the Son of man be risen again from the dead.

(Lots of reasons are offered.

It wasnt his time just yet 

and if the disciples 

were to blab about it to others

he would have been persecuted for it 

seems a reasonable explanation.

But he wanted them to know

without a doubt

who he was.

And by having three witnesses

it would carry a lot more weight

when the time came to tell others

than just having one or two.)

If I heard this preached on 20 different times?

I would probably come away with 20 different things

that "resonated" each time.

This past Sunday, 

this is what resonated:

2 And was transfigured before them: 

and his face did 

shine as the sun, 

and his raiment 

(Clothing)

was white as the light.

And the first thing I thought of was:

James 1:17

Every good gift 

and every perfect gift 

is from above, 

and cometh down 

from 

the Father of lights, 

with whom is no variableness, 

neither shadow of turning.

God invented light.

First words he ever spoke.

First thing he ever

"manifested"

by speaking it into existence.

Genesis 1:3

And God said, 

Let there be light: 

and there was light.

And that was the 

ENTIRE

electro-magnetic spectrum

of which we only 

get to experience 4%

of during our existence

in this earthly realm.

Radio, Microwave, Infrared

Visible

Ultraviolet, X-ray, Gamma.

Seven, go figure right?

Seven different components as well:

Red, orange, yellow, 

green, blue, indigo, violet.

Seven Spirits of God:

Isaiah 11:2

2 And the spirit of the Lord shall rest upon him, the spirit of wisdom and understanding, the spirit of counsel and might, the spirit of knowledge and of the fear of the Lord;

If you honestly knew

just how really weird 

light is?

Then why in the world

would you not want to meet 

its father?

I mean it is just 

INSANE

how it behaves

LIGHT, MISSLER, DARWIN, HOVIND, COURTNEYHUNTMD, and

 some others.

Chuck Missler Genesis session 2

"a lot of background 

on the mysterious nature of light."

"...the first quote of God is 

let there be light 

and we also 

to this day 

light represents 

one of the most 

paradoxical mysteries 

in the field of science."

(Still true today.

What he is trying to tell you is 

that is not an accident.)

"and I want you to notice 

the description of Eden it's very different 

than your Sunday school coloring books" 

(My view equates to a different Dimensionality, or different layers of dimensions)

"every precious stone was thy covering the sardius the topaz the diamond the barrel the Onyx The Jasper the sapphire the emerald and the carbuncle and gold this is a classic way of describing colored light to speak in terms of jewels semi-precious Jewels we find it here we find on the breast of the high priest we find it in the New Jerusalem and so forth it occurs frequently we do understand that God is a God of Light we know the that that the angels and also Adam and Eve before they fell were clothed with light."

"...and God said let there be light and there was light this is the first direct quote of God in the Bible it also turns out that light itself even in in the very frontiers of the most advanced science today it still poses astonishing discoveries and and Mysteries"

(That was like 30 years ago

and it is still true today.)

"first direct quote of God let there be light there was light I want to insert here a little side study because I think it's relevant to our understanding to talk a little bit about the nature of light its first direct quote of God all of us have different views of what that really may mean light has a paradoxical nature is does light consist of waves or does light consist of particles."

(Both)

"you're both right 

depending on who's looking." 

"...it's obvious that the individual particles are not operating individually they're operating organically as a group and that creates a real mystery because on the one hand light can be demonstrated to be a stream of particles it also behaves like waves both and that created all kinds of problems."

"it's quantized 

but so is light 

it's quantized 

so is 

everything quantized."

(That is such a great point

and I really don't think 

I understood it very well 

until last night

but if the light

by which we are able 

to see everything we see

is quantized

then everything else 

is as well.

quan·tize

/ˈkwänˌtīz/

verb

past tense: 

quantized; past participle: quantized

1.

Physics

apply quantum theory to, 

especially form into quanta, 

in particular 

restrict the number 

of possible values of (a quantity) 

or states of (a system) 

so that certain variables 

can assume only certain discrete magnitudes.

"light is quantized into packets of energy")

Back to Dr. Missler:

"you know if you take you start studying the attributes of God you can come up with a number of things he's obviously infinite located at infinity or however you want to express that he obviously is capable of infinite power right he represents omnipresence he can be anywhere all the time he also is omniscient he knows everything anyone have a problem with that good okay 

it's interesting that 

light has properties 

analogous to those.

(I always thought the same thing, 

long before I ever read this.

Ref:

Wednesday, September 13, 2023

Might as well lol)

Dr. Missler Again:

"light has no a perfect light has no Parallax it's located at Infinity light has a velocity limit but it's limited by the intrinsic physics of the universe it's also omnipresent it turns out they've also discovered we'll talk about this next time photons lack locality they've discovered that all photons in the universe know what the other photons are doing."

(That right there alone should tell you there is a God.

There is just no way something that weird and crazy

could be the result of some random accident.)

(See:

Double slit experiment

"The double-slit experiment is a foundational quantum mechanics demonstration showing that microscopic objects, like electrons or photons, exhibit both wave-like and particle-like behavior. When particles are fired at two slits, they create an interference pattern on a screen (wave behavior), but when observed or measured, this pattern disappears, and particles act like bullets, forming two clumps."

"...light is the fundamental revelatory mechanism it's the primary way we reveal things because when the light comes on we can see and we can understand and so it it fits the attributes of God it's interesting that in James 1:17 it's every good gift and every perfect gift is from above and comes down 

from the Father of Lights 

with whom is no variables nor shadow."

Different Source:

"in terms of the menorah, there was a spiritual covering over the first couple’s earthly bodies, a covering or radiance pictured when Moses spoke with Adonai on the mountain, receiving the Torah covenant for Israel. Like the Holy One in whose image they were made, they had corresponding covers of light like garments.” (Dr. Alewine in The Creation Gospel Workbook Four: The Scarlet Harlot and the Crimson Thread, p. 175

Romans 1:20-22

20 For the invisible things of him (Photons) from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even his eternal power and Godhead; so that they are without excuse:

21 Because that, when they knew God, they glorified him not as God, neither were thankful; but became vain in their imaginations, and their foolish heart was darkened.

22 Professing themselves to be wise, 

they became fools,

Diagram of the eye

by which we experience light:

"To suppose that the eye 

with all its inimitable contrivances 

for adjusting the focus 

to different distances, 

for admitting different amounts of light, 

and for the correction of 

spherical and chromatic aberration, 

could have been formed by natural selection, 

seems, I confess, absurd in the highest degree..."

~

CHARLES DARWIN.

"SO?

Based solely on the paradoxical 

and other attributes of light, 

combined with the complexity 

of the human eye/sight etc, its

pretty easy to see

(Pun Intended lol)

Thats there's a lil more to

Genesis 1:3

And God said, 

“Let there be light,” 

and there was light.

Than meets the eye :-).

Sorry.

had too."

Back to the verse that

RESONATED

the most this past Sunday:

2 And was transfigured before them: 

and his face did shine as the sun, 

and his raiment 

(Clothing)

was white as the light.

Also reminded me of:

1 John 3:2

2 Beloved, now are we the sons of God, 

and it doth not yet appear 

what we shall be: 

but we know that, 

when he shall appear, 

we shall be like him; 

for we shall see him as he is.

(That is speaking of us being transformed

into a glorified state when he returns,

like him 

when he was on the mountain 

at transfiguration

but nowhere near 

EQUAL 

to him.)

 The first time around

only the believers in him

saw him

in his resurrected state

1 Corinthians 15:6

After that, 

he was seen of above 

five hundred 

brethren 

at once; 

of whom the greater part remain 

unto this present, 

but some are fallen asleep.

Peter lol...

not even going there lol.

Pastor Bridgette did a great job 

preaching her sermon 

on this subject this past Sunday.

Suffice it to say,

God interrupts Peter lol.

Like 

"Shut up, 

you are missing the point."

vs 5 

While he yet spake, 

behold, a bright cloud overshadowed them: 

and behold a voice out of the cloud, which said, 

This is my beloved Son, 

in whom I am well pleased; hear ye him."

Peter wanted to establish

 a temporary shelter 

on the mountain.

Guess what your body is?

Yeah...

a temporary shelter.

Your soul will be made eternal

by the owner of eternity

IF

you would but accept him

and live your life accordingly.

Brother Joe just hammered on this

continually in his bible study on Exodus.

That our bodies were but tents for our souls

during our time in this realm.

(I looked for my notes from that bible study last night but apparently they are buried in about 8 inches thick worth of papers entitled, "Misc Notes" so I decided there was no need to dig through all of that when I already know what he had said and the point I was to share lol.)

"We just happen to wear/inhabit

 a temporary 

"meat suit".

(TV show "Supernatural")

Other things that came to mind

during the sermon this past Sunday:

Mary Magdalene when she saw Christ 

in the tomb didn't recognize him at first:

John 20:11-18

But Mary stood without at the sepulchre weeping: 

and as she wept, she stooped down, 

and looked into the sepulchre,

12 And seeth two angels in white sitting, 

the one at the head, 

and the other at the feet, 

where the body of Jesus had lain.

13 And they say unto her, 

Woman, why weepest thou? 

She saith unto them, 

Because they have taken away my Lord, 

and I know not where they have laid him.

14 And when she had thus said, 

she turned herself back, 

and saw Jesus standing, 

and knew not 

that it was Jesus.

15 Jesus saith unto her, 

Woman, why weepest thou? 

whom seekest thou? 

She, supposing him 

to be the gardener, 

(Thats a sermon in itself right there

maybe some other day)

saith unto him, 

Sir, if thou have borne him hence, 

tell me where thou hast laid him, 

and I will take him away.

16 Jesus saith unto her, 

Mary. 

She turned herself, and saith unto him, 

Rabboni; which is to say, Master.

(She didnt know who he was

until she heard his voice.)

17 Jesus saith unto her, 

Touch me not; 

for I am not yet ascended to my Father: 

but go to my brethren, 

and say unto them, 

I ascend unto my Father, 

and your Father; 

and to my God, 

and your God.

18 Mary Magdalene came and told the disciples 

that she had seen the Lord, 

and that he had spoken these things unto her.

(Always loved the fact 

that she was the first one to see him

after the resurrection.

It says a lot,

perhaps more than most would think

on the surface of it.

Goes right along 

with who anointed him etc. etc. etc.)

So there was that thought going on

in my head during the sermon Sunday 

as well as:

2 Peter 1:16-18

For we followed not deceivable fables, when we opened unto you the power, and coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, 

but with our eyes 

we saw his majesty:

17 For he received of God the Father honor and glory, when there came such a voice to him from that excellent Glory, This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased.

18 And this voice 

we heard when it came from heaven 

being with him in the holy mount.

If you experience 

the supernatural presence

of God?

UPCLOSE AND PERSOANL
FIRST HAND?

You will never be able to deny it.

Ever.

You will gladly

go to your death

singing his praises

KNOWING

something greater than us

in this realm

EXIST

for you/us

for all eternity.

And I just can not understand 

WHY

all the hostility toward

"the father of lights"

and the inventor/designer

of the Quantum world.

Me personally?

I just cant wait to meet him.

And?

Here we go again with

PROBLEMS WITH 

THE LECTIONARY

lol.

This one I can kind of understand 

more so than I can the past issues 

I have had with it

as there are two very 

distinct trains of thought

going on from 

the Transfiguration

to what follows right behind it.

But it's something 

that people just don't know

or don't think about, 

or don't preach about

and personally?

I THINK THEY SHOULD BE

we are that close.

Just a lil reminder 

of where we were when we left off:

9 As they were coming down the mountain, Jesus instructed them, “Don’t tell anyone what you have seen, until the Son of Man has been raised from the dead.”

Now with what needs be explained,

preached on

 in a lot greater detail today:

10 The disciples asked him, 

“Why then do the teachers of the law say 

that Elijah must come first?”

11 Jesus replied, “To be sure, Elijah comes and will restore all things. 12 But I tell you, Elijah has already come, and they did not recognize him, but have done to him everything they wished. In the same way the Son of Man is going to suffer at their hands.” 13 Then the disciples understood that he was talking to them about John the Baptist.

John the Baptist 

had already been martyred

when he said it, 

so what on earth is he talking about? 

Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers

(11) Elias truly shall first come.—Better, cometh Our Lord’s words are obviously enigmatic in their form, and, as such, admit of two very different interpretations. Taken literally, as they have been by very many both in earlier and later times, they seem to say that Elijah shall come in person before the yet future day of the Lord, the great second Advent of the Christ. So it has been argued the prophecy of Malachi 4:5 shall yet have a literal fulfilment, and John the Baptist when he confessed that he was not Elijah (John 1:21) was rightly expecting his appearance. 

Malachi 4:5

Behold, I will send you Elijah the prophet 

before the coming 

of the great and dreadful day 

of the Lord:

Mathew Henry 

commentary on Joel 2

Those on whom 

the Spirit is poured out 

shall foresee and foretell 

that great and terrible day of the Lord, 

and expound the wonders in heaven 

and earth that go before it; 

(September 23rd, 2017?

First time the stars had aligned like that in 3000 years.

Revelation 12:1-6

The Woman and the Dragon

"A great sign appeared in heaven: a woman clothed with the sun,

with the moon under her feet and a crown of twelve stars on her head.

She was pregnant and cried out in pain as she was about to give birth."

About is the key word there.

Christ new church is almost born.

Satan knows it.

His days are over.)

"for, as to his first coming, 

so to his second, 

all the prophets did 

and do bear witness,

(There will be another JTB

wild man from the wilderness

yelling and screaming

at people to get ready.

Sound the least bit familiar?)

He then references Revelation 10:7

“But in the days when the seventh angel 

is about to sound his trumpet, 

the mystery of God will be accomplished, 

just as he announced 

to his servants the prophets.”)

It would hardly be right to reject this interpretation merely on the ground of its literalism, or its improbability, or the resemblance which it has to the fantastic belief and practices, which have kept their ground even in modern Judaism, in connection with the expected appearance of the Tishbite, though these, so far as they go, must be thrown into the adverse scale. The words that follow in the next verse are, however, more decisive.

And restore all things.—Better, and shall restore. Leaving for the present the question who was to do the work, we turn to the nature of the work itself. Our Lord’s language generalises the description given by Malachi. That work of “turning the hearts of the children to the fathers, and the hearts of the fathers to the children,” 

was but part 

of a wider 

restoration of things and persons. 

Old truths were to be reproclaimed, 

(Genesis 6 anybody?)

and cleared from 

the after-growths of traditions. 

("And restore all things"

Pertains 

MAINLY 

to the Bride of Christ 

The Church that will meet him 

upon his return

without blemish etc.

See:

I want somebody)

Men, as a race, were to be brought into their right relation to their God and Father. The words seem—at least as interpreted by Acts 3:21 (where see Note); Romans 8:21; Ephesians 1:22-23; 1Corinthians 15:28, and other like passages—to point forward to a “restitution of all things,” 

the bringing in of order 

where now there is 

disorder and confusion, 

(Oh you mean like now?

Gotcha.)

which shall embrace 

not Israel only, 

or even mankind, 

but the whole universe of God, 

visible and invisible.

Christ restores his church

for himself 

to be ready for him

on his return

Ephesians 5:26-27

 That he might 

sanctify 

and 

cleanse it 

with the washing of water 

by the word,

27 That he might 

present it to himself 

a glorious church, 

not having spot, 

or wrinkle, 

or any such thing;

 but that it should be holy 

and without blemish.

The rest of the restoration

back to the original state intended

as in the Garden

doesn't happen until after 

the White Throne judgement

and the New Heaven, 

New Earth, New Jerusalem

descend from Heaven.

(See verse above:

She, supposing 

him to be the gardener, 

(Thats a sermon in itself right there

maybe some other day)

REVELATION 21

And I saw a new heaven and a new earth: 

for the first heaven and the first earth were passed away; 

and there was no more sea.

2 And I John saw the holy city, 

new Jerusalem, coming down from God out of heaven, 

prepared as a bride adorned for her husband.

3 And I heard a great voice out of heaven saying, Behold, the tabernacle of God is with men, and he will dwell with them, and they shall be his people, and God himself shall be with them, and be their God.

4 And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away.

5 And he that sat upon the throne said, Behold, I make all things new. And he said unto me, Write: for these words are true and faithful.

6 And he said unto me, It is done. I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end. I will give unto him that is athirst of the fountain of the water of life freely.

7 He that overcometh 

shall inherit all things; 

and I will be his God, 

and he shall be my son.

So yeah...most people 

just hear a twenty minute sermon

but my brain is like 

the afterburners have been turned on...

I literally can not write down fast enough 

what I am thinking about sometimes.
