i dont know if this thread is going to offend anyone...but whenever i was a kid, and i thought about 'jehovah distroying everything' i always used to think about that song 'rock the cabash' by the clash, (and later willeinum by will smith).
or rem-its the end of the world as we know it?
i dont know why those two songs go through my head whenever i think of the end of those world when i hear those songs lol..
I like that song (I melt with you) but I think something more hardcore for the actually part where Jah strikes everyone done with fire and sulfur.
Does this suit you better?

I have LOVED "War Pigs" since I was a child. It describes "Jehovah's Day" in melodic terms that the Revelation Climax book could never aspire to.

Divine Intervention?
WHAT CAN WE EXPECT?
When a catastrophe strikes, anybody can be affected, and faithfulness to God is not necessarily a factor.
Time + Unforeseen Occurrence = Wait on the "Great Day of Jehovah."
Conclusion:
Regularly reading this magazine will help you to understand what God has done, is doing, and will yet do that can bring you happiness now and a solid hope for the future.

There is freedom within, there is freedom without
Try to catch the deluge in a paper cup
There's a battle ahead, many battles are lost
But you'll never see the end of the road
While you're traveling with me
Hey now, hey now
Don't dream it's over
Hey now, hey now
When the world comes in
They come, they come
To build a wall between us
We know they won't win
Now I'm towing my car, there's a hole in the roof
My possessions are causing me suspicion but there's no proof
In the paper today, tales of war and of waste
But you turn right over to the TV page
Hey now, hey now
Don't dream it's over
Hey now, hey now
When the world comes in
They come, they come
To build a wall between us
We know they won't win
Now I'm walking again to the beat of a drum
And I'm counting the steps to the door of your heart
Only shadows ahead, barely clearing the roof
Get to know the feeling of liberation and release
Hey now, hey now
Don't dream it's over
Hey now, hey now
When the world comes in
They come, they come
To build a wall between us
We know they won't win

Words are flowing out like endless rain into a paper cup,
They slither while they pass, they slip away across the universe
Pools of sorrow, waves of joy are drifting through my opened mind,
Possessing and caressing me.
Jai guru deva om
Nothing's gonna change my world.
Images of broken light which dance before me like a million eyes,
That call me on and on across the universe,
Thoughts meander like a restless wind inside a letter box they
Tumble blindly as they make their way
Across the universe
Jai guru deva om
Nothing's gonna change my world.
Sounds of laughter shades of life are ringing
Through my open mind inciting and inviting me
Limitless undying love which shines around me like a
million suns, it calls me on and on
Across the universe
Jai guru deva om
Nothing's gonna change my world,
Jai guru deva...

Ellerslie Leadership Training
The Ellerslie intensive training combines powerful Biblical training with a set apart, spiritually-rich environment, tailor-made for cultivating intimacy with Christ and becoming equipped for world-impacting Christian service. Soul-stirring teaching sessions are presented by Eric and Leslie Ludy along with occasional guest instructors, in a collegiate-style atmosphere that is built around prayer, study, and personal spiritual growth. The intensive training takes place at the beautiful Ellerslie Campus in Windsor, Colorado. Only 50 on-campus spots are available for each semester, giving the course an intimate and personal feel, and allowing lifelong friendships to be forged.
This training experience is designed to super-charge your spiritual walk, deepen your daily relationship with Jesus Christ, ground you in a Gospel worldview, give you an unshakable passion for God’s Word, and prepare you for a lifestyle of Kingdom work.
The goal of this set-apart season of training is to make you spiritually strong, so that you can give to the weak and become Christ’s hands and feet to this lost and dying world. The training you will receive here can become a solid foundation upon which God will build for the rest of your life. It is our prayer and desire that the next generation of Amy Carmichaels, William and Catherine Booths, and Hudson Taylors will be shaped right here on this campus. Even if you feel far from being a “spiritual hero”, there is no better time to pursue a life of full surrender to Christ than right now. We would count it a privilege to inspire and challenge you along this narrow way of complete consecration to Him.
Ellerslie training can’t shape you into a world-changer; only God can accomplish such a feat within the human soul. But Ellerslie can become a powerful catalyst for His work in your life – providing the setting, the teaching, and the experience that allows Him to mold, shape, refine and prepare you for the endless frontier of following and knowing Him. The Ellerslie intensive training experience isn’t for everyone. But if you are looking for “something more” in your spiritual walk and are eager to live a life fully given to your King, then we encourage you to prayerfully consider joining us for one of our upcoming semester-long programs. God willing, we look forward to knowing you and investing into your future!

Moreover, this I say, brothers, the time left is reduced. Henceforth let those who have wives be as though they had none, and also those who weep be as those who do not weep, and those who rejoice as those who do not rejoice,
and those who buy as those not possessing, and those making use of the world as those not using it to the full; for the scene of this world is changing.

please, as per burntheships, share recipes from your corner of the world - a delicacy, a tradition, or just plain old comfort food.. i look forward with gustatory delight to your offerings.
thanks.. mine is listed below.
flatwoods plantation pork tails.
Basic Marinara Sauce
1 Tablespoon EVOO
1 small chopped onion
3-4 garlic cloves, minced or crushed
2 28 oz cans tomatoes, roughly chopped with juice
(can also use purée or 1 of each, depending on how chunky or smooth you like it)
4 Tablespoons tomato paste
1 cup water
1 cup dry red cooking wine (I use Holland House brand)
pinch of sugar
Season with:
Oregano and/or Rosemary
TONS of freshly torn basil leaves (the more the merrier), and
A huge fistful of fresh Parsley (again, the more the merrier)
Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
Sauté onion and garlic in olive oil. Chuck in everything else, mix lightly and simmer half-covered for an hour, stirring every 10 minutes or so. Simple!
I use this basic marinara for everything — meatballs and spaghetti, seafood lasagna, breaded eggplant or chicken parmigiana, stuffed shells.
It freezes well, too, so you can double or triple the recipe and always have homemade sauce on hand for a lot le$$ than the salty, corn-syrupy stuff that comes in a jar.
Oh! And it's not "gravy." Do not get me started on the gravy vs. sauce debacle around here… You start a "gravy" with meat bones. This is vegetarian/vegan and the greenery pumps it up with nutrients as well as taste.

UPDATE:
NH court: sex offender can't attend church
Published: September 17, 2010
CONCORD, N.H. (AP) The New Hampshire Supreme Court has denied a sex offender's request that he be allowed to go to church with a chaperone.
Jonathan Perfetto of Manchester was convicted in 2002 of possessing child pornography. Though a condition of his release is that he have no contact with children, he had asked to attend Jehovah's Witnesses services chaperoned by a church elder.
The state Supreme Court on Friday agreed with a lower court ruling denying that request. It said the probation condition does not violate Perfetto's constitutional rights to religious freedom and that Perfetto can still practice his religion in other ways.
Perfetto also served time when he was 17 for molesting a young male relative and again when he was older for assaulting adult women.

Heart-warming story as Lewis finds new home
THE potentially heart-breaking experience of giving away a much-loved pet cat became heart-warming for Birkdale’s Marja and Lawrence Opperman.
Marja and Lawrence worried about the fate of the desexed ‘‘chocolate-point’’ Burmese male, Lewis, for many weeks as they organised their affairs and put their their home on the market to allow them to travel.
As she prepared a classified advertisement offering Lewis free to a good home, Marja prayed for the ageing and deaf cat which was suffering a bout of the flu.
The Oppermans owned Lewis about a year after he was advertised as a giveaway in Logan City. “When we picked him up we were told he was about 12 years old and he had been neglected,” Marya said this week.
“He was skinny and had patches; he had no whiskers, but he was a fantastic cat. He was very sweet and very good natured. He started purring as soon as he came near you.
“It was a rescue mission but I have had cats all my life – I stabilised him and his diet and got a vet to look at him.” Marja said Lewis became “part of the family” as she nursed him back to good health.
He loved to sit on her shoulder. A Jehova’s Witness, Marja said: “I prayed and prayed: Please let him go to a good home that gives the attention he deserves, maybe with someone in a wheelchair.”
On the day the ad appeared, the first caller was a woman who said she had suffered a stroke, was paralysed on her left side and now needed a wheelchair. “I told her that he was old and deaf and had been sick but he was sweet and loved attention, and she said, ‘that’s just what I want’.” Marja and Lawrence delivered Lewis to the woman’s Victoria Point home that afternoon. “She was so happy she burst into tears – it was very emotional,” Marja said. “She offered us a cup of tea and she called herself his mum. “I think she will suit him and he will suit her perfectly.
Her carer also seemed to think it was a good match up.” Marja said Burmese cats seemed to have long lives. She owned one of the breed for 20 years from its kittenhood. The Oppermans, who have lived in Redland City for the past 13 years, plan to see some more of Australia.
With Lewis’s future now secure, they are plotting a route that will include visiting friends in Cooktown but still have more preparation to do before they hit the road for the trip of a lifetime.
