with thanksgiving

let your requests be made known unto God.

and the glory and the majesty and the splendor,
for everything in heaven and earth is yours.

Wealth and honor come from you;
you are the ruler of all things.
In your hands are strength and power
to exalt and give strength to all.

Now, our God,

we give you thanks,and praise your glorious name.

Thanksgiving Proclamation

 

In 1863, President Lincoln proclaimed the last Thursday of November "as a day of Thanksgiving and Praise." An annual day of Thanksgiving was to be "held on the same day, in all the States....to become permanently, an American custom and institution." The following is a segment taken from his order of praise to God for America's blessings:

No human counsel hath devised nor hath any mortal hand worked out these great things. They are the gracious gifts of the Most High God, who, while dealing with us in anger for our sins, hath nevertheless remembered mercy. It has seemed to me fit and proper that they should be solemnly, reverently and gratefully acknowledged as with one heart and one voice by the whole American People.

“A democracy cannot exist as a permanent form of government. It can only exist until the voters discover that they can vote themselves largesse from the public treasury. From that moment on, the majority always votes for the candidates promising the most benefits from the public treasury with the result that a democracy always collapses over loose fiscal policy, always followed by a dictatorship. The average age of the world’s greatest civilizations has been 200 years.”  — Alexis de Tocqueville

Jindal Blasts Romney's 'Gifts' Comment: 'Absolutely Wrong' "Louisiana GOP Gov. Bobby Jindal blasted Mitt Romney’s assertion that he lost last week’s election largely because of policy 'gifts' to minorities and young voters from President Barack Obama....

'I think that’s absolutely wrong. Two points on that: one, we have got to stop dividing the American voters. We need to go after 100 percent of the votes, not 53 percent. We need to go after every single vote.
And, secondly, we need to continue to show how our policies help every voter out there achieve the American dream, which is to be in the middle class, which is to be able to give their children an opportunity to get a great education...'”

^{Revelation 3:15} I know thy works, that thou art neither cold nor hot: I would thou wert cold or hot.
¹⁶ So then because thou art lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will spue thee out of my mouth.
¹⁷ Because thou sayest, I am rich, and increased with goods, and have need of nothing; and knowest not that thou art wretched, and miserable, and poor, and blind, and naked:
¹⁸ I counsel thee to buy of me gold tried in the fire, that thou mayest be rich; and white raiment, that thou mayest be clothed, and that the shame of thy nakedness do not appear; and anoint thine eyes with eyesalve, that thou mayest see.

Four Horses of the APOCALYPSE

THE 4 HORSES OF THE APOCALYPSE by ~outofmypen on deviantART


 Revelation 6

 "And I saw when the Lamb opened one of the seals, and I heard, as it were the noise of thunder, one of the four beasts saying, Come and see.
 
² And I saw, and behold a white horse: and he that sat on him had a bow; and a crown was given unto him: and he went forth conquering, and to conquer.

³ And when he had opened the second seal, I heard the second beast say, Come and see.

⁴ And there went out another horse that was red: and power was given to him that sat thereon to take peace from the earth, and that they should kill one another: and there was given unto him a great sword.

⁵ And when he had opened the third seal, I heard the third beast say, Come and see. And I beheld, and lo a black horse; and he that sat on him had a pair of balances in his hand.

⁶ And I heard a voice in the midst of the four beasts say, A measure of wheat for a penny, and three measures of barley for a penny; and see thou hurt not the oil and the wine.

⁷ And when he had opened the fourth seal, I heard the voice of the fourth beast say, Come and see.

⁸ And I looked, and behold a pale horse: and his name that sat on him was Death, and Hell followed with him. And power was given unto them over the fourth part of the earth, to kill with sword, and with hunger, and with death, and with the beasts of the earth."

What do the horses and their colors represent? 

I listened to a spellbinding lecture the other day by a prominent "end of times" preacher.  Though his interpretation of the apocalyptic horses was much different than that of other preachers I had heard and accepted, I found his reasoning very sound and thought-provoking. Let me share what I remember.

Of The Apocalypse

The horses signify strong belief systems throughout the world.

 

The white horse represents Catholicism.  It is true, the Pope traditionally wears white; and if the Pope were to ride a horse today, what color do you think his choice would be? 

 

The red horse represents communism. 

 

The black horse represents capitalism.

 

For years, the preacher said he had been puzzled by the pale horse.  Then one day, he looked up the Greek word that had been translated into "pale."  He found it was "chloros," a word which can also be translated as green.  "Pale" was selected as the more sensible choice for the English interpretation because whoever heard of a green horse?  And if the future horse is indeed green, then the preacher believes that horse represents Islam. 

 

"Nearly one-fourth of the world’s population today is Muslim."
