What are you afraid of?

Be 'NOT AFRAID'


This post concerns our fears and the blocks they create. When one begins the journey into the unknown, fear must become something that is controlled and recognized for what it is..."a warning to be aware". One understands that someone fighting a fire must control their fear of fire, but not ignore it or let it control them. By the same token, when one engages upon the spiritual path, the beginning is through darkness and it will be here that you will be tested the most. It will be here that most will fall away and never continue beyond. It will be here they "GIVE UP", their journey and run back to their old life seeking a security that doesn't exist.
Some people think quotes like; "There is nothing to fear, but fear itself" are nothing more than that..."quotes". While others recognize 'words of wisdom' when they hear them and understand that hearing is not the same as listening, and use them as the tools they are. It is at this point that the universe reminds us that it is our ACTIONS and NOT our words that govern our direction. For those 'listening' it comes as great comfort, for those not, as torment.

"I would rather be hated for who I AM, than liked for who I'm not."

"A coward shall die a thousand deaths while one who is brave, shall have but one."

"The LORD never gives me more than I can handle, though we often disagree."

"Darkness always flees into the shadows at the coming of the light."

"Breathe DEEP...Breathe SLOW."

"Be 'NOT AFRAID'."

These are just a few of the type I mean...so...what are YOU afraid of and how do you combat it...or do you? As for myself I spent 30yrs saying; "I can't play guitar", because I was afraid of failing, without ever really having tried. I only really started playing guitar, when I stopped saying I can't.

What CAN you do?

NOT So Funny

A man I met, calls himself Capt. Sweep, filmed and edited this next piece. I should warn you that it may contain scenes that some may find offensive or disburbing...but I'm NOT going to.
Instead I'll warn you, as I must, that the actions of so many like this...but NEVER seen on film, is FAR more offensive & disturbing. That the lack of action on behalf of so many, is FAR more offensive & disturbing. That the consequences from ALL these actions combined, is FAR more offensive & disturbing.

Thank you Capt.
your humble servant,

CBC holds Forum

CBC
Making the NEWS instead.
(I think it's their new moto)

CBC makes Homelessness issues the front-burner for a (I'd say "OPEN", but I'd be lying)Forum, held in a small room within the Victoria library. Small enough to 'restrict access' to ONLY those wanted to help make the broadcast...All the UNDESIRABLE's were NOT allowed in...Even as people left, I was refused entry.
For them,
Rev. Al must be their voice, (as he was there, allowed in and allowed to speak) you must tune in to hear for yourself if he raised the issue of police officers walking into his CARE Facility and uttering death threats to the patrons. You'll be able to hear him raise the issue of abusive, lying staff at these facilities,(such as his son). YES, I'm sure that, since this forum is happening, it's to get answers. You can bet he'll be raising the issue of blanket justice inflicted upon the poor. Why wouldn't he? If one of you speed and crash the car, are you ALL no longer allowed to drive? WHEN you find a dishonest cop, are they ALL fired? WHEN you find a dishonest politician, is the whole council tossed? I'm sure it's not JUST about funding, trying to get more money for the SLAVE* trade.

*Please note: some may feel I've used the term SLAVE too harshly, but I'd like to remind all at this point that slavery is not determined by the rate of pay, nor the type of job, but rather the removal of choice. So unless you can PROVE that ALL "These People" are homeless and poor by choice ---(a small few of us are, but not ALL), I'll keep using the wording as is.

THE UNWRITTEN (but always used) LAW Of The HOMELESS
If one person gets caught using the phone for drugs...the phone is REMOVED.
If one person gets caught shooting drugs in the bathroom...the doors are LOCKED.
If one person gets caught for ANYTHING...EVERYONE is punished.
STAFF may speak however they wish to, or falsely about any of the 'inmates' of these CARE facilities without ANY repercussions, but if the 'inmate' attempts to defend himself in ANY way he is termed, 'ABUSIVE to STAFF' and BARRED.

On a daily basis, "THESE PEOPLE", as termed by such heartfelt-speakers, are punished for crimes they've NEVER committed. Yesterday morning 4 police officers, that included 2 SGT's, took a women from the shelter with the "STORY" that she had to go with them to provide a blood sample, despite the FACT there was a doctor present at the time, because another officer had pricked her finger on a needle and was at the hospital. DESPITE the dire urgencey of the moment they suggested, they spent well over 20-30 mins. waiting for her to get her things together, depsite the fact all they said they needed was a blood sample and then she could go. And today the police are saying they need to free up officers. WOW.


ONLY GOD's Justice shall BALANCE this.
As "those people" continue to refuse to listen
it SHALL come upon them suddenly and unexpectedly.
But they won't be able to say they didn't know.
ONLY that they didn't 'Listen'.
Strange, that even after the past 2000 yrs
let alone the thousands before,
THAT should STILL be their excuse.


REPORT THAT CBC

Barred AGAIN

I was barred again from "OUR PLACE" yesterday. The reason, (as I have it in writing this time), was for the following; (this is exactly what's written)

Aug.22/06

- An incident occured in Our Place doorway and staff ask all others the please come inside to keep area clear.
- Ancient refused to move either in or away from doorway and ultimately was asked to leave the center for the day.
Bob F.


This "INCIDENT" they describe, but don't tell you anything about, was of a VERY small homeless man being violently chased by 2 much larger security officers who ran fully into, (not just the doorway of), the SHELTER called 'OURPLACE' seeking safety from FEAR of what they were going to do to him. These 2 security men were then joined by yet 2 more. The STAFF of 'Our Place' to whom he ran seeking safety...sent him back outside with the growing number of guards, which is when I went out, because I saw a guard make yet another attempt to put his hands on this man. I was clearly outside of the facility, simply on the sidewalk, doing nothing more than witnessing. They said the POLICE had been called and ORDERED me inside. (Remember folks I'm outside on the sidewalk, witnessing this...I didn't realize how much of a prison it was until then and HOW MUCH they think they own and control me).

I refused to leave this man alone with NOW 4 much larger security guards who have already displayed unrighteous and illegal behavior. I was told point blank I will be barred if I do not go inside 'NOW". (They have no authority over me..I'm not an inmate of this CARE FACILITY. Other than for the purpose of removing potential honest witnesses there was no NEED to tell me to do anything.)
AGAIN I refused, saying I will not leave this man alone, and told them they had no right to even ask and are immoral for doing so. I was then told I was barred.
I told them I wanted it in writing and I would wait for it. Then Jordan (Rev. Al's son) said they were phoning the POLICE, on me now, and he refused to put it in writing.
Bob did though...though he had to check a few times to come up with a good story to keep it straight.
Then the police showed up...and left again...without getting out of the car as they saw us, I had moved to stand beside my brother at this point.

Apparently, this "INCIDENT" they mentioned, without mentioning further, was severe enough to have 4 security officers all hot and bothered and gathered together phoning the police, get me barred, have the cops called again on me, have the police arrive...only so they could drive away without getting out of the car.
I'm sure it had nothing to do with me being a witness FOR the accused.
No report...NO CRIME.
Apparently...after all was said and done.
NOTHING happened yesterday.
NOTHING to SEE here.
Don't let it bother you.
Move along please.

Coming SOON


A Journey Into My MIND

Riding the Rythym of LIFE

Sharing the MUSIC of my SOUL

So Says GOD


GOD ANGRILY CLARIFIES
'Don't Kill' RULE:

NEW YORK: Responding to recent events on Earth, God, the omniscient creator-deity worshipped by billions of followers of various faiths for more than 6,000 years, angrily clarified His longtime stance against humans killing each other Monday.

"Look, I don't know, maybe I haven't made myself completely clear, so for the record, here it is again," said the Lord, His divine face betraying visible emotion during a press conference near the site of the fallen Twin Towers. "Somehow, people keep com
ing up with the idea that I want them to kill their neighbor. Well, I don't. And to be honest, I'm really getting sick and tired of it. Get it straight. Not only do I not want anybody to kill anyone, but I specifically commanded you not to, in really simple terms that anybody ought to be able to understand."

Worshipped by Christians, Jews, and Muslims alike, God said His name has been invoked countless times over the centuries as a reason to kill in what He called "an unending cycle of violence."

"I don't care how holy somebody claims to be," God said. "If a person tells you it's My will that they kill someone, they're wrong. Got it? I don't care what religion you are, or who you think your enemy is, here it is one more time: No killing, in My name or anyone else's, ever again."

The press conference came as a surprise to humankind, as God rarely intervenes in earthly affairs. As a matter of longstanding policy, He has traditionally left the task of interpreting His message and divine will to clerics, rabbis, priests, imams, and Biblical scholars. Theologians and laymen alike have been given the task of pondering His ineffable mysteries, deciding for themselves what to do as a matter of faith. His decision to manifest on the material plane was motivated by the deep sense of shock, outrage, and sorrow He felt over the Sept. 11 violence carried out in His name, and over its dire potential ramifications around the globe.

"I tried to put it in the simplest possible terms for you people, so you'd get it straight, because I thought it was pretty important," said God, called Yahweh and Allah respectively in the Judaic and Muslim traditions. "I guess I figured I'd left no real room for confusion after putting it in a four-word sentence with one-syllable words, on the tablets I gave to Moses. How much more clear can I get?"

"But somehow, it all gets twisted around and, next thing you know, somebody's spouting off some nonsense about, 'God says I have to kill this guy, God wants me to kill that guy, it's God's will,'" God continued. "It's not God's will, all right? News flash: 'God's will' equals 'Don't murder people.'"

Worse yet, many of the worst violators claim that their actions are justified by passages in the Bible, Torah, and Qur'an.

"To be honest, there's some contradictory stuff in there, okay?" God said. "So I can see how it could be pretty misleading. I admit it—My bad. I did My best to inspire them, but a lot of imperfect human agents have misinterpreted My message over the millennia. Frankly, much of the material that got in there is dogmatic, doctrinal bullshit. I turn My head for a second and, suddenly, all this stuff about homosexuality gets into Leviticus, and everybody thinks it's God's will to kill gays. It absolutely drives Me up the wall."

God praised the overwhelming majority of His Muslim followers as "wonderful, pious people," calling the perpetrators of violent attacks rare exceptions.

"This whole medieval concept of the jihad, or holy war, had all but vanished from the Muslim world in, like, the 10th century, and with good reason," God said. "There's no such thing as a holy war, only unholy ones. The vast majority of Muslims in this world reject the murderous actions of these radical extremists, just like the vast majority of Christians in America are pissed off over those two bigots on The 700 Club."

Continued God, "Read the book: 'Allah is kind, Allah is beautiful, Allah is merciful.' It goes on and on that way, page after page. But, no, some assholes have to come along and revive this stupid holy-war crap just to further their own hateful agenda. So now, everybody thinks Muslims are all murderous barbarians. Thanks, Taliban: 1,000 years of pan-Islamic cultural progress down the drain."

God stressed that His remarks were not directed exclusively at Islamic extremists, but rather at anyone whose ideological zealotry overrides his or her ability to comprehend the core message of all world religions.

"I don't care what faith you are, everybody's been making this same mistake since the dawn of time," God said. "The Muslims massacre the Hindus, the Hindus massacre the Muslims. The Buddhists, everybody massacres the Buddhists. The Jews, don't even get me started on the hardline, right-wing, Meir Kahane-loving Israeli nationalists, man. And the Christians? You people believe in a Messiah who says, 'Turn the other cheek,' but you've been killing everybody you can get your hands on since the Crusades."

Growing increasingly wrathful, God continued: "Can't you people see? What are you, morons? There are a ton of different religious traditions out there, and different cultures worship Me in different ways. But the basic message is always the same: Christianity, Islam, Judaism, Buddhism, Shintoism... every religious belief system under the sun, they all say you're supposed to love your neighbors, folks! It's not that hard a concept to grasp."

"Why would you think I'd want anything else? Humans don't need religion or God as an excuse to kill each other—you've been doing that without any help from Me since you were marked with CAIN!" God said. "The whole point of believing in God is to have a higher standard of behavior. How obvious can you get?"

"I'm talking to all of you, here!" continued God, His voice rising to a shout. "Do you hear Me? I don't want you to kill anybody. I'm against it, across the board. How many times do I have to say it? Don't kill each other anymore—ever! I'm really VERY serious about this!"

Upon completing His outburst, God fell silent, standing quietly at the podium for several moments. Then, witnesses reported, God's shoulders began to shake, and He wept.

FREE - DAVID - FREE


David Johnson has been freed on bail after approx. 36 days of immoral incarceration until his sentencing appeal in October. David does not eat while being made a political prisoner, so it also brings an end to 36 days of hunger while on strike within confinment.

This has been a small victory with so many taking his place daily but without his strength and conviction to STAND against them. Until the false arrests and misguided persecution of Godly people ends, the WAR remains ongoing. Until those who sit in judgment of his brother render their hearts back to GOD's LAW...judgement shall be forthcoming on those who judge.

LET MY PEOPLE GO

Or have you no heart for EVEN your own, that you would harden your hearts to GOD as the pharoah did with Moses. On mine own I can do nothing, but with GOD all things are possible.

NOT GOD

I ran across this post while searching my name. I thought I'd share it here as his comments were turned OFF for this post, rendering his judgment complete I guess so I included a response. It's this type of RASH thinking and MISUNDERSTANDING that I want to bring to the forefront to illustrate how dangerous it is.


"Ancient Clown is NOT GOD"

I find it very funny that a person who claims himself to be God can make such a glaring error at the website of my friend angie who is female, btw. The implication of the mispost means he also went to the 'wrong site'.

[Ancient Clown]: Hello Warrior Brother: Here are things you should be made aware
[Angie]: hah who is ancient clown.. must be spam.
[Cordy]: www.asos.com!! SALE NOW NOW NOW!

etc...

Anicent Clown is the only person who dares call himself by that name. Because it is so linked with heresy and evil and cults, that no man in the right mind would call himself that.

Now, if ancient clown, who has accurately predicted the tsunami but utters absolute blasphemies and makes himself out as the person 'I AM', then i am now given the kind permission to call this man a devil.

If he is God, he cannot show Himself to have the intelligence of an infant. My friend angie has made it clear to the point that she was female. Just look at the user profile. Omniscience is a character of God, solely to Jesus because He has displayed His all knowing knowledge.

But this ancient clown is a devil, replacing God's commands with breathing techniques and stupid numbers and colour schemes. Furthermore, he misleads people and causes people to go astray.

It is ironic because all wars happen in God's knowledge and it is often used as a judgment tool. God often keeps silent during wars because His wrath is executed there. Lebanon has been found wanting - this i am sure. Israel may have its punishment, but that is for a different day. Ancient clown, a lover of human attention and affirmation, is of course anti-war and anti-poverty. But the agenda for doing so, is to give himself credibility to sow his evil lies.

Yes Ancient Clown, this is also on top of you swearing in my blog, of which is a grievous sin.[i deleted this comment] - You are no God, not even close to God. You are a devil, ancient clown. Truly, you are a clown - in making yourself a fool in the eyes of God for the wages of your own damnation.

If you truly repent and admit that you are not God, as well as turn from your sins, you may have still hope. But that grace is not mine to give. It is the LORD's. The LORD is zealous for His own name and will have His vengeance on you.

Hi:

By removing the comments on your post;
"Ancient Clown is NOT GOD" I guess that makes your judgment complete...btw, who gave you permission to call me the devil? Besides the devil himself? Are you 100% sure that P.O'd doesn't stand for "Politically Opposed" with me? (or do you feel it was just too close too matter).

I worry for you my brother, you are correct in pointing out a clerical error but didn't bother to take into account I AM, the Son of Man, and allowed to make mistakes. Trying to respond to more than one person at a time, with limited time and slow materials to work with will bring about these errors from time to time. Even spelling mistakes.

PLEASE tell me, am I not one who looks as the 'Son of Man'? In the image of GOD I was made, as recognized by every race, of all ages, everywhere I go. (your opinion doesn't STOP nor CHANGE this FACT).
PLEASE copy/paste where I said I was GOD and not simply His messenger.
PLEASE explain what it means when I say; "I AM, the least.
PLEASE show where I have lied by saying ANCIENT CLOWN is within my given name so always was my name but hidden from me until I was old enough to find it.
PLEASE explain and show WHERE "Ancient Clown" is linked with heresy and evil and cults instead of a referral to JESUS CHRIST...as I found out years after I took it.(goto-->http://ancientclown.blogpot.com as an example)
PLEASE explain how I can fulfill the aspects of a true prophet by being correct in my prophecy yet in the same phrase you feel you can falsely accuse me and claim permission to demonize me.
PLEASE tell me who has the power to change the colour of the hair on my head and the beard on my face to white, for when I came back down the mountain many were changed as noticed by those who knew me.
PLEASE indicate how the phrase on my site; "Follow me, by following Christ" has me leading anyone astray.
PLEASE tell me EXACTLY what GOD personally said about me when YOU stood in the ALMGHTY's council seeking advisement regarding my claims.
PLEASE explain how to recognize the 'Sign of Jonah' and how it relates in significance to doing so in the 'End of Days'.
PLEASE do ALL these things or END YOUR LIES about me and stop placing your OWN soul in such a dangerous position as to speak against GOD's anointed one.
("ANOINTED" is also within my name).

your humble servant,
Ancient Clown

Today in History

THIS DAY IN HISTORY
POST 100 by Ancient Clown

I've seen this listed within peoples sites. It marks an event that happened on this day, years before. I'd like to share a pivotal day in 'ANCIENT's HISTORY'.

On this day, Aug.9th/1975 my brother, aged 5, was struck down by a car and killed in front of my house, in our VERY small village, in the middle of the afternoon. A few years before, I had been the victim of a similar event in a 'hit & run', but my mom just rushed me to the hospital and I was told how CLOSE it was and how LUCKY I AM to be alive. Not so for my brother, three different Ambulances broke down on the way to pick him up. He was finally rushed to the hospital in the back of the police car that was first to arrive, but NOT when he first arrived. He could have been rushed earlier in that manner, but the police officer refused to allow that until finally the third Ambulance failed in arriving and my mother threatened to do it herself. The doctors said they could have saved him if only we could have gotten him there SOONER.

On this day, I had a HUGE falling out with GOD that lasted most of my life. On this day, I lost ALL respect for authority who blindly follow procedure. As a child myself, with an understanding that everything happens for a reason, I was left trying to figure out why GOD wanted to kill my brother...I didn't think GOD was 'just' and 'righteous'. I thought GOD was vindictive and mean.
If anyone reading this post has ever lost anyone close to them...does it matter HOW? Does it matter if they get run down by careless motorists or gunned down by terrorists? Does it matter if the death was a result of failure to act by a police officer or an innocent bystander? Does it make any difference if it was a car bomb or being hit by a car who's driver is bombed(drunk)?
DOES IT MAKE A DIFFERENCE?
DOES it make a difference how they died...or how they lived?

I couldn't figure out why GOD would let me live, but kill my brother. GOD taught me that day that when YOU are called back...nothing in this world will save you...so live well and love TODAY...I also came to realize that UNTIL God wants you back, you'll still be here to fulfill your purpose...so be 'NOT AFRAID'...and live well in LOVE.
And that's what happened this day in 'his story'.

I chose to share this with everyone in hopes that they may understand, that after I adopted everyone as a brother and a sister, and my message from GOD is for them ALL.


PLEASE:
Stop killing my brothers and sisters...instead share with them GOD's love for us ALL.
Share the understanding that GOD hates the sin but LOVES the sinner.
Jesus did not come here to glorify Himself, but GOD.
This IS the path to GOD...of this I AM, certain...for I followed it in secret when I was called.
MANY were called...FEW were chosen...but the message is for ALL.
In this we are ALL joined.
Let us put aside differences...come together NOW.
your humble servant,

CENSORSHIP

The following post was copy/pasted from here:

About this campaign:
The web is a great tool for sharing ideas and freedom of expression. However, efforts to try and control the Internet are growing. Internet repression is reported in countries like China, Vietnam, Tunisia, Iran, Saudi Arabia and Syria. People are persecuted and imprisoned simply for criticising their government, calling for democracy and greater press freedom, or exposing human rights abuses, online.

But Internet repression is not just about governments. IT companies have helped build the systems that enable surveillance and censorship to take place. Yahoo! have supplied email users’ private data to the Chinese authorities, helping to facilitate cases of wrongful imprisonment. Microsoft and Google have both complied with government demands to actively censor Chinese users of their services.

Freedom of expression is a fundamental human right. It is one of the most precious of all rights. We should fight to protect it.
Irrepressible Adj. 1) Impossible to repress or control.
Chat rooms monitored. Blogs deleted. Websites blocked. Search engines restricted. People imprisoned for simply posting and sharing information.
The Internet is a new frontier in the struggle for human rights. Governments – with the help of some of the biggest IT companies in the world – are cracking down on freedom of expression.
Amnesty International, with the support of The Observer UK newspaper, is launching a campaign to show that online or offline the human voice and human rights are impossible to repress.
Find out more about this campaign
Be irrepressible:
Sign our pledge on Internet freedom to call on all governments and companies to ensure the Internet is a force for political freedom, not repression.
Undermine censorship by publishing irrepressible fragments of censored material on your own site. The more people take part, the more we can defeat unwarranted censorship and create an unstoppable network of protest.

GARBAGE

Mankind's greatest INVENTION One might say mankind's ONLY invention
If they take into consideration
that everything made ends up there.
Made to breakdown.
Built to be there.

And what gets done with it when it reaches this stage?
It is swept under the carpet of EARTH's floor.
Pushed into the cracks, poured into the holes. Burning through one form of pollution into another. In a civilized and orderly manner, of course. In a manner that would get you punished if cleaning your room and get caught by your parents.

Consumed by the problem within the desire of 'wants' over 'needs', the answer evades the question of; "What to do with it", in the simplicity of; "Stop making it."

As long as we are a part of the problem, we will NEVER be a part of the solution. However as SOON as we stop being a part of the problem we immediately BECOME a part of the solution.

YOUR MISSION:

(should you choose to accept it)

STOP making garbage in ANY & EVERY way possible.

START...by stopping.

Follow me by following CHRIST

It shall be by what you DO

NOT by what you say

That SHALL determine that.

Media Make-over

FREEDOM of the PRESS: Image Hosted by ImageShack.us (Do as you're told) Here's an article that appeared in yesterday's paper. Just a small piece of news on page 3. It was once said; "A secret in communication is in hearing what's not being said." Can you spot what's REALLY being said here?
RMCP want fewer crime stories in B.C.
Vancouver (CBC.ca)
"The RCMP in B.C. want to reduce the number of crime stories reported by the media in an effort to ease public fears. An internal RCMP report obtained by The Vancouver Sun says the public has an irrational fear of crime because of the large number of crime stories. According to the report, many of those stories are the result of RCMP news releases or comments from media relations officers. As a result, the force is now reviewing its policy on how often information is released and how quickly officers respond to calls from reporters." Funny it should bring about THAT result instead of 'better officer training' or exploring the contributing factors to these crimes that they may be reduced and eliminated...such as the governments 'War on the Poor', tortures disguised as BY-LAWS, immoral and dishonest means of conduct by officials. BUT NO: Their answer to crime...don't tell anyone. Their answer to corruption...don't tell anyone. Their answer to police misconduct...don't tell anyone. WOW...that should make everyone sleep easier eh? I guess it's no wonder the media have become such LIARS, They're not allowed to 'Report the TRUTH'...only 'Make the NEWS'. Or did you miss THAT being communicated? Image Hosted by ImageShack.us
