Commentary

Luke 23:46-48: And when Jesus had cried out with a loud voice “Father unto Your hands I committee My Spirit.” Having said this, He gave up the ghost. Now when the centurion saw what was done, he glorified God, saying “Certainly this was a righteous Man.” And all the people that came together to that sight, beholding the things which were done, smote their breasts, and returned.

Jesus’ last words uttered from His lips- “It is finished” The point of our salvation was set. His life’s mission is fully accomplished—His word of completion spoken from a wooden tree----cross. His cry of triumph!! The unspeakable separation -the Son from the love of the Father. The obedient Son. Mankind had done what it could to this sinless One. Man being evil had done the vilest worst and hung Him on the cross to die. Satan also did what he could against Him, but His was the final victory!

$34 TRILLION DEBT

The United States currently carries a $34 trillion debt. President Biden is responsible for $6 trillion of that in just three years. He is the biggest spending president in history. If the citizens of the United States vote for Biden in November, they are inviting calamity. Last year Americans sent $4.44 trillion in tax dollar to Washington. That’s about $3 trillion less than Biden wants to spend in 2025. He is forecasting less than we will take in so taxes have got to rise. You must not get caught up in personal judgment of the candidates but look at the party and platform. President Biden is not facing reality and we are going to wake up with a real economic crisis.

TIKTOK THREAT

Two thousand years ago in the quiet of the morning, the breaking of dawn, in a small garden outside of the walls of the city over Jerusalem, a guard standing watch around a sepulcher. They were guarding a grave because there had been strange things happened three days before. Strange scenes had occurred in the sky, earth and heavens as the Man that called His name Jesus was crucified. Even in the temple! He said He would rise from the dead on the third morning. As the light began to break in the east, two women silently and sadly winding their way around tents that were pitched all around the city because of Passover, bringing spices to anoint the body. They loved this Man because of His goodness, his purity, and His compassion. The friends of this Man were very small. There had been curses upon Him as He hung on the cross. Curses from bystanders and soldiers and the people they cried “Away with Him, let His blood be upon us and our children”.

Ask Rusty – How Do I Withdraw My Application for Social Security? Dear Rusty: I will be 67 next month and reached my full retirement age in July 2022. My wife and I are discussing whether we should take Social Security now or wait until we are age 70 to get a higher benefit. I remember reading that you can start Social Security and, if not needed, pay it back within a year and then “reset” to get a higher benefit by waiting longer. Please describe the steps of this process to take now and repay the year’s benefits if we do not need them. Signed: Uncertain Dear Uncertain: Well, to exercise the so-called “do over option” (which is essentially withdrawing your application for benefits), you need to contact Social Security (1.800.772.1213 or your local SS field office) and request that your application for benefits be withdrawn. You can also download and complete form SSA-521 and deliver the same to your local Social Security office.

Matthew 27:45 “Now from the sixth hour there was darkness over all the land unto the ninth hour.”

Crucifixion was considered the most brutal and shameful death. Most of the time it was used to punish religious and political agitators, slaves, pirates, murderers. People that had no civil rights. Rome did thousands of crucifixions according to Jewish historian Josephus. 3000 Jews in 7A.D. After the rebellion of Spartacus 6000 were crucified in one day.

( Newsworthy Articles and My Opinion) ELECTION 2024

This election perhaps could be the most important election we have ever had. Changes are upon us that will never stray and will effect us for years to come. People need to look beyond the candidates and look at the parties and what they stand for. We might not ever be able to recover from what America has been through these years and will be if the last years remain with the Democrats massive input of illegal immigration, to name a few. Plus, a lot of money has been spent on electric cars and getting away from oil. Look at the money has been given away fueling massive inflation. It is time to be smart and stand up for American and not just party. It’s scary after the State of the Union speech to listen to the way the President distort the facts. Same ole story- - tax the rich and spend. .

CAITLIN CLARK

As I said in the last article, I want to take each of the miraculous events during the crucifixion and expound on each one, because this was not just an ordinary day it was the most important day in history. This was the day that changed everything. Jesus died on the cross for you and me. There was no other way for the door to be opened for us to have a relationship with God, but by the forgiveness of our own sin, through Christ’s payment on our behalf. A day of miracles!

BIDEN’S BAD DECISION

President Biden recently announced that he would permit to freeze the new liquefied natural gas export projects. This would severally hurt Louisiana and the United States. Apparently the political left, which he seems to listen to, demanded this and he went along with it. The progressives are celebrating because they know this will shrink investment in liquefied natural gas. We need to remember these actions as we make decisions for president. The Democrats do not seem to have Louisiana in their hearts with these decisions and we need to stand up and recognize what they are trying to do with these decisions that will hurt our state tremendously.

The death and resurrection of Jesus Christ, Son of God, is the most important event in the history of our world. All four Gospels record the events before and after His death. Each giving different details for instant Matthew’s account mentions the earthquakes, and the resurrected saints. Mark states the time of the crucifixion, Luke account is the words Jesus spoke to the women who were mourning and the criminals rebuke of the other, women preparing spices and ointments. John’s is the only one who mentions that the legs be broken and the soldiers piercing of the side. All four Gospels conclude with Jesus’ arrest, trial at the Sanhedrin, trial at Pilate’s court, flogging, condemned to death, carrying of the cross, entombed, resurrection. In each Gospel these events were treated with more detail.
