Jesus – Savior or Prophet? It Matters!
By Jack Smith
Buried treasure.
Suppose you knew where it was, but you knew you would never have it; and, suppose you knew that others would. Would you help them along? Would you tell them about it, or would you keep it to yourself? Would you hide it from them, or even lie about the treasure itself? After all, if you can’t have it, why should they?
The Treasure is Jesus Christ. The one who will never know Him is the Prince of Darkness; and, he has decided to keep as many people away from the Treasure as he possibly can. Islam is one of his methods of doing so.
1 John 2:1-2 states, “My little children, I am writing these things to you that you may not sin. And if anyone sins, we have an Advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ the righteous; and He Himself is the propitiation for our sins; and not for ours only, but also for those of the whole world.” The word “propitiation” is translated from the Greek word, “hilasmos,” meaning, “. . . the ‘propitiation’ affected by the sacrificial death of Christ on the cross, whose atoning work eradicated the sin of human beings and appeased the wrath of God.” (Quoting, Stephen D. Renn, Expository Dictionary of Bible Words: Word Studies for Key English Bible Words Based on the Hebrew and Greek Texts, (Peabody, MA: Hendrickson Pub., 2005), s.v. “PROPITIATION,” WORDsearch CROSS e-book.). Thus, the death of Jesus Christ, the sinless, perfect, eternal, Lamb of God, provides the platform whereby forgiveness is offered to every human being on the face of the earth. His death ”propitiates” or satisfies the requirements of a holy and just God who cannot ignore sin, but provides the Lamb of sacrifice, Himself, and thereby satisfies the standards of righteousness He has placed upon Himself. Forgiveness is guaranteed by God, not because God is merciful, compassionate, and loving (although He is all of these things), but because Jesus has “purchased” salvation for the entire world (Galatians 3:13, 1 Peter 1:18). Salvation is a gift that must be “claimed”; one that must be Read more…
Powerful 7.3 Magnitude Earthquake Strikes of Western Indonesia, Tsunami Warning Issued
Update: Tsunami warning has been lifted …
Richter Magnitude 7.3 – OFF THE WEST COAST OF NORTHERN SUMATRA
Time: Wednesday, January 11, 2012 at 12:37:01 AM at epicenter
Location: 2.396°N, 93.175°E
Depth: 29.1 km (18.1 miles)
Associated Press – “A powerful earthquake has hit waters of western Indonesia, prompting local officials to issue a tsunami warning.
The U.S. Geological survey said the quake had a preliminary magnitude of 7.3 and struck 260 miles (420 kilometers) off the coast of Aceh province.
It was centered 18 miles (30 kilometers) beneath the ocean floor.
Arief Akhir, an official with Indonesia’s geological agency, said a tsunami warning has been issued.
Indonesia is prone to seismic upheaval due to its location on the Pacific ‘Ring of Fire,’ an arc of volcanos and fault lines encircling the Pacific Basin.
A giant quake off the country on Dec. 26, 2004, triggered a tsunami in the Indian Ocean that killed 230,000 people, half of them in Aceh.” Read more.
Australia: Locals Refuse to Swim in ‘Putrid’ Bayside Beaches After Dead Fish Found Near Shore
By Marnie Reid – “LOCALS are refusing to swim in murky Bayside beaches because of dead fish floating near the shore.
Dendy Iceberger John Fisher said the water was ‘oily, dirty, smelly and had dead fish in it’.
He and other Icebergers have stopped swimming at Bayside beaches because the water is ‘too putrid’.
‘It smells, it’s got an oily feel to it and you can’t see the end of your fingers when they are in the water,’ Mr Fisher said.
‘The dead fish was just the icing that capped it all off.’
Mr Fisher said dead fish had been spotted at Dendy St beach, Brighton Beach and Half Moon Bay.
The Brighton resident said it was very worrying and he did not believe it was safe to swim there. ‘I want an explanation of why the water is as bad as it is,’ Mr Fisher said.
‘It’s never been this bad before and I want them to make sure it doesn’t happen again.’
Environment Protection Authority Victoria spokesman Simon Frost said the EPA had received reports of dead fish over the New Year’s Eve weekend.” Read more.
India: ‘Unnatural Deaths’ of 2,000 Chickens Sets Off Bird Flu Fears in Meghalaya
“Around 2,000 poultry birds have died in the past few weeks on a farm in Meghalaya’s East Garo Hills district, fuelling fears of bird flu, even as a general alert was sounded in the area, officials said on Monday.
A government official said 2,000 chickens died an unnatural death in a government-run poultry farm at Williamnagar, the district headquarter of East Garo Hills, about 312 km west of Meghalaya’s state capital Shillong.
‘We have sent samples for laboratory tests to Bhopal-based High Security Animal Disease Laboratory for confirmation. We don’t know for sure if the poultry deaths were due to bird flu,’ Praveen Bakshi, the district magistrate, told the media.
Initially, he said the government has sent samples to a Guwahati-based Laboratory, but it did not yield any results.
‘The district administration has taken all precautionary measures and rapid response team has been geared up to take action in case the laboratory confirms bird flu,’ Bakshi said.
He said a seven kilometre radius of the area where the birds died has been kept under surveillance.
Meanwhile, the district administration and health and family welfare and veterinary officials are scheduled to meet on Tuesday to discuss on the unnatural deaths of birds at the farm.” Source – The Asian Age.
Florida: FWC Investigates Dozens of Keystone Heights Turtle Deaths
By Karen Voyles – “The Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission is trying to figure out what killed dozens of turtles in the Keystone Heights recently.
Commission spokeswoman Karen Parker said a resident in the Smith Lake area noticed the dead turtles and reported them over the weekend.
The turtles – many found at the end of Pinon Road – did not appear to have any signs they died of a traumatic death, Parker said.
‘It was possibly a cold stress event,’ Parker said, ‘but it is too early in the investigation to say for certain.’
State research biologists will be working to determine the cause of death, a process that could take weeks.” Source – Gainesville.com.
Japan: The Most Deadly Manmade Element in Existence — Plutonium — Made It Around the Planet After Fukushima Meltdowns
How bad is plutonium? Considering that one pound of plutonium evenly distributed into everyone’s lungs would kill every man, woman and child on Earth, I’d say it’s pretty bad. And there have been literally tons of radioactive plutonium and other radioactive elements released into the air and ocean environments since 3/11/2011 …
By Sayer Ji – “A recently published study in the Journal of Environmental Radioactivity confirms that the radioactive fallout from the Fukushima nuclear disaster reached Europe (Lithuania), and included plutonium, the most deadly manmade element (nanogram for nanogram) in existence.
According to the study’s authors the radionuclide concentrations measured indicate there was ‘long-range air mass transport from Japan across the Pacific, the North America and the Atlantic Ocean to Central Europe as indicated by modelling.’ What this means is that every region under the jet stream — which includes half of the planet north of its equator — could have been exposed to some degree of plutonium fall-out; a fact that is all the more disturbing when we consider there is no such thing as a safe level, and that the harm (on the human scale of time) does not dissipate: the half life of plutonium-239 is 24,200 years, and that of uranium-238 is 4,460,000,000 years, which is older than our planet.
In a past exposé, where we identified the likelihood of the occurrence we are now reporting on, we published Jet Stream radiation dispersion projections from Germany’s EURAD system which showed that Radioiodine-131 and Cesium-137 were within detectable concentrations thousands of miles away from Fukushima within days after the event. This was, after all, a nuclear explosion (as occurred also at Chernobyl) producing extremely small particles moving at extremely high velocity, and not a hydrogen-based conflagration, which was erroneously reported to be the case in the first days following the disaster.” Source – GreenMedInfo.com.
Reactor 4: Spent fuel pool was boiling without water after 1/1/2012 – “Following up this article about the decreasing of water level at reactor 4… The blogger woman in Minamisoma leaked information from an actual Fukushima worker. According to her post, after the earthquake of 1/1/2012, the pipe of spent fuel pool for reactor 4 was broken, the pool completely lost its water. The worker stated, Sooner or later, the truth will have to to be widely known. Believe it or not, you will only regret. Wear a mask at least. The pool was boiling without water.” Source – Fukushima Diary.
Fukushima citizens: Series of recent earthquakes are not normal quakes – “Fukushima citizens tweet that recent series of the earthquake feel different from usual ones. mainakata311: ‘I think everyone has noticed it if they live in Fukushima since 311, and paid attention to earthquakes. Suddenly, the way of shaking has changed, isn’t it ? feels like something is exploding underground, like a bomb.’ … Butyoo1488: ‘I live in Ibaraki, but my family, and people around me feel the same way too. It’s not a normal earthquake, but a short quake as if something was exploding underground. I haven’t felt that quake for 40 years. It happens everyday.’ The only reason to deny the possibility of hydrovolcanic explosion underground is because the radiation level is not spiking up after the earthquake, but I doubt if the steam comes right above the epicenter.” Read more.
Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad and Venezuela’s Hugo Chavez Rebuff US, Joke About Having Nuclear Bomb
By Reuters – “Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad and Venezuela’s Hugo Chavez lavished each other with praise on Monday, mocked U.S. disapproval and joked about having an atomic bomb at their disposal.
‘Despite those arrogant people who do not wish us to be together, we will unite forever,’ the Iranian president told socialist leader Chavez at the start of a visit to four left-leaning Latin American nations.
Despite their geographical distance, the fiery anti-U.S. ideologues have forged increasingly close ties between their fellow OPEC nations in recent years, although concrete projects have often lagged behind the rhetoric.
Ahmadinejad was in Venezuela at the start of a tour intended to shore up support as expanded Western economic sanctions kick in over the Islamic Republic’s nuclear program.
‘The imperialist madness has been unleashed in a way that has not been seen for a long time,’ Chavez said in a ceremony to welcome Ahmadinejad at his presidential palace in Caracas.
Both men hugged, beamed, held hands and showered each other with praise.
As he often does, the theatrical and provocative Chavez stuck his finger right into the global political sore spot, joking that a bomb was ready under a grassy knoll in front of his Miraflores palace steps.
‘That hill will open up and a big atomic bomb will come out,’ he said, the two men laughing together.” Read more.
Flashback: ‘A World Without America’: Iran Building Rocket Bases in Venezuela to be Used Against ‘Iran’s Enemies’ – “The Iranian government is moving forward with the construction of rocket launch bases in Venezuela, the German daily Die Welt wrote in its Friday edition. Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez is Teheran’s most important South American ally. Iran is building intermediate- range missile launch pads on the Paraguaná Peninsula, and engineers from a construction firm – Khatam al-Anbia – owned by the Revolutionary Guards visited Paraguaná in February. Amir al-Hadschisadeh, the head of the Guard’s Air Force, participated in the visit, according to the report. Die Welt cited information from ‘Western security insiders.’” Read more.

The Univision documentary, ‘La Amenaza Irani,’ (Iranian Threat), uses undercover, never-before-seen video footage to illustrate how Iran’s growing political, economic and military ties to Latin America threaten U.S. security.” Read more.
Hamas Leader Rejects Peace with Israel, Disavows Non-Violent Resistance
Isaiah 48:22, “‘There is no peace for the wicked,’ says the LORD.”
By ASSOCIATED PRESS – “GAZA CITY — The top Hamas leader in the Gaza Strip rejected compromise with Israel in a fiery speech Wednesday, a day after gunmen killed four Israelis.
In an address to Hamas members, Gaza strongman Mahmoud Zahar said the movement would resist peace efforts and criticized the Palestinian president for joining the negotiations.
‘Today marks the start of direct negotiations between someone who has no right to represent the Palestinian people and the brutal occupier, to provide a cover for Judaizing Jerusalem and stealing the land,’ Zahar said.
Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas has been locked in a fierce rivalry with Hamas since the group seized Gaza from his forces in a violent takeover in 2007, leaving him only in control of the West Bank.
In a swift response to the shooting, Abbas’ forces rounded up 250 low and mid-level Hamas supporters throughout the West Bank in what the group said was the largest sweep in recent memory. Hamas officials called the roundup arbitrary and an act of treason.
Abbas and Netanyahu are in Washington for a series of talks aimed at creating an independent Palestinian state alongside Israel within a year. Negotiations are to focus on core issues of the conflict, including the status of east Jerusalem, which the Palestinians want as capital of their future state but Israel also claims.” Read more.
Denver Broncos’ Tim Tebow Wins With 316 Yards at 31.6 Yards Per Completion
Divine intervention? Maybe not. Coincidence? Could be. But after this game I still can’t help but to shout out a heartfelt “Amen” …
Update: According to John Ourand of Sports Business Journal, Tebow’s final quarter-hour overnight rating which included the winning score (8:00-8:15) was, yes, a 31.6. That’s three “3:16’s”. Divine intervention? Could be. Coincidence? Maybe not …
Romans 8:28, “And we know that all things work together for good to those who love God, to those who are the called according to His purpose.”
“(NewsCore) – Tim Tebowed and Denver rose as one.
The Broncos quarterback’s 80-yard touchdown pass to receiver Demaryius Thomas on the first play of overtime against Pittsburgh both clinched Sunday’s game and wrote another improbable chapter in Tebow’s book of clutch plays to win high-pressure games.
His performance also borrowed a little magic from another famous book.
The devout Christian’s stat line in Sunday’s game mirrors the numbering of the Biblical passage that Tebow at times had painted on to his black eye paint during his career at the University of Florida — John 3:16.
The passage reads, according to the New American Standard Bible, ‘For God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish, but have eternal life.‘
Officially, Tebow passed for 316 yards against the Steelers, completing 10 of 21 pass attempts — meaning he passed for 31.6 yards per completion.
After his final pass was caught and brilliantly taken downfield by Thomas, Tebow shrugged off three bad weeks — when he threw for just one touchdown and four interceptions — and took a knee and prayed in his classic style.
‘First and foremost, I just want to thank my savior, the Lord, Jesus Christ,’ Tebow said at the postgame press conference. ‘I am so thankful for the platform God has given me.'” Read more.
Zimbabwe: Over 165 Animals Die in Lower Zambezi Valley After Anthrax Outbreak Hits Mana Pools National Park
By Peter Matambanadzo – “Mana Pools — MORE than 165 animals in Mana Pools National Park in the lower Zambezi Valley have died due to an anthrax outbreak over the past few weeks.
Parks and Wildlife Management Authority public relations manager Ms Caroline Washaya-Moyo confirmed the death of elephants, hippos, buffaloes and kudus.
The most affected are Chikwenya and Sapi areas, which are located on the shoreline as well as islands near Mana Pools.
‘Our Chinhoyi office has since confirmed the anthrax outbreak following the death of the animals in Mana Pools.
‘The Authority engaged the Vet Offices who later collected samples from hippos for lab testing. The lab test confirmed that 88 hippopotamus died of anthrax,’ said Ms Washaya-Moyo.
The cause of the death of 45 Buffaloes, 30 elephants and two Kudus, she said, was yet to be established but starvation or anthrax was suspected. Ms Washaya-Moyo said the situation was under control.
A veterinary officer in the Department of Veterinary Services (Wildlife), Dr Chris Foggin also confirmed the outbreak.
‘A number of animals have died, but we have visited the area and we sealed it off and we are burning the carcasses to prevent any further spread, an action well considered now that the lab reports confirmed anthrax as the culprit,’ said Dr Foggin.” Source – AllAfrica.com.
Former U.S. Army Soldier Charged With Trying to Provide Material Support to Terror Group Al-Shabaab
“GREENBELT, Md. – A former U.S. Army soldier has been charged with attempting to provide material support to terror group al Shabaab, the Department of Justice announced Monday.
Craig Benedict Baxam was arrested Friday upon return to his home state of Maryland after he was captured in Africa during an alleged attempt to reach Somalia, where the terror group is based.
Baxam, 24, joined the Army in 2007 and served in Baghdad and Korea. During his enlistment, he completed eight months of advanced intelligence and cryptology training, the Justice Department said in a press release.
According to court papers, Baxam secretly converted to Islam days before leaving the Army, one month ahead of completing his deployment in Korea. He returned to Maryland in July 2011 and reportedly sought to move to Somalia to join al Shabaab.
Baxam allegedly flew to Kenya using money from his retirement savings account, and carried several hundred dollars in cash to give al Shabaab as an offering after crossing the border into Somalia, the Justice Department said.
‘The complaint alleges that Craig Baxam intended to travel to Somalia and join the terrorist organization Al-Shabaab,’ U.S. Attorney Rod J. Rosenstein said in a statement.” Read more.
Florida: Islamic Extremist Arrested in Tampa Over Plan to Car-Bomb Businesses and a Police Station
According to this wannabe jihadist, dying while blowing up kafir businesses and infidel policemen is a great Islamic way to obtain a glorious death. But according to Barack Obama, Eric Holder and Janet Napolitano, he isn’t really a Muslim, no matter what he says …
“A suspected Islamic extremist has been arrested over an alleged plan to attack businesses and a police station in Florida, US authorities have said.
Sami Osmakac, 25, a naturalised US citizen who was born in the former Yugoslavia, was arrested in Tampa on January 7 following a sting operation.
According to the US justice department he allegedly tried to create a car bomb and obtain an assault rifle and explosives.
His arrest followed a months-long surveillance during which the Kosovo-born suspect was closely monitored by law enforcement officials.
Officials said Mr Osmakac has been charged with one count of attempted use of a weapon of mass destruction, which they identified as explosives.
‘The perseverance and diligence of law enforcement caused this investigation to conclude in a successful manner,’ US Attorney Robert O’Neill said in a statement.
‘I would like to commend them for their hard work. This investigation was also predicated, in part, by assistance from the Muslim community. I would like to thank them as well.’
Mr Osmakac allegedly met with an undercover FBI employee from whom he tried to acquire an AK-47-style automatic rifle, Uzi submachine guns, high capacity magazines, grenades and an explosive belt.
During one meeting, when told by the undercover operative that he could change his mind and back out of the plot, Mr Osmakac is said to have replied: ‘We all have to die, so why not die the Islamic way?'” Read more.
