  1. Mystery Object That Fell from Sky through Kentucky Man’s Home Still Unidentified WARNER TODD HUSTON -- October 26th 2019 The object that reportedly came crashing through a Kentucky man’s home is still unidentified, but the Federal Aviation Administration says it is not an airplane part. Tommy Woosley says that the still unidentified object smashed through the wallof his Burgin, Kentucky, mobile home last weekend. The homeowner says that the object must have hit the home when he was gone over the last weekend because when he came home, he found wall damage and damage to his bathroom. The Mercer County Sheriff’s Department says they are seriously looking into reports of an object that may have fallen from an airplane and landed into the side of a man’s mobile home. The device is some type of pressurized canister. Read more at: https://godfatherpolitics.com/mystery-object-that-fell-from-sky-through-kentucky-mans-home-still-unidentified/
  2. I worked for a casino for about six years and it was a great day when I got to quit and leave that industry. My jobs at a casino were a security officer and a warehouse worker. I knew my employer was engaged in deceit and attempted manipulation to get money out of people. At the same time, nobody was forcing anyone to go to the casino to gamble. People did it and still do it today. In my opinion I would refrain from spending time gambling at casinos as they lead to paths a saint should wish to stay away from.
  3. If you hunt be careful out there. What a horrible way to die in my opinion. I feel sorry for the man.
  4. Arkansas Hunter Dies After Being Gored by Deer He Thought He Shot and Killed 20 October 2019 An experienced Arkansas hunter was found severely injured in the woods Tuesday night, his body riddled with antler puncture wounds. He later died. The 66-year-old man from Yellville, Arkansas, had shot a deer, and made plans with his nephew to field-dress the deer’s body together, police told CNN. When his nephew found him, the seriously injured man was alert and talking, and was even able to call his wife. But he stopped breathing by the time paramedics could get him to the hospital, the Arkansas Game and Fish Commission said. Officials are not certain that the antler wounds are the official cause of his death, the commission said in a statement. He may have died from other medical issues such as a heart attack, the statement said, but there will be no autopsy. Injuries resulting from wounded deer are not uncommon, said Corporal Joe Dale Purdom from the Game and Fish Commission.

  5. I prayed about leaving New York for Utah over seven years ago and felt like we should go. We left federal housing with some money saved and moved to an apartment in Utah. There have been challenges for us over the last seven years but now we have a growing retirement account, about $78,000 in equity in our home and I have employment that I really like making about 35% more in wages.
  6. After reading your initial post a few quotes came to mind. " . . . neither be partaker of other men's sins; keep thyself pure." -- I Timothy 5:22 "Mercy detached from justice grows unmerciful." -- C.S. Lewis We definitely should not encourage people to continue gross sins in their lives. We should speak the truth to others in love with wisdom (see Ephesians 4:15) and encourage others to turn toward God. Sometimes (many times) it is best to say nothing as the person is not ready to receive counsel.
  7. Mitt Romney will likely never get a vote from me again. He has advocated for the citizen red flag private gun confiscation laws that completely violate the 5th and 6th Amendment rights for American citizens in due process of law. These terrible laws that have been adopted in about twelve states also violate the 2nd Amendment at the whim of an accuser and Judge with the defendant never getting his say in court until after their private firearms are taken away. (Good luck ever getting your property back.) I cannot wait to replace him in the Senate. We need more people like Mike Lee and Rand Paul in the Senate who stand up for American citizen's rights and liberty.
  8. I am also very sad Cat123 about the general wickedness of the general population in America. God's judgments will come on this nation and especially the wicked unless they repent and turn with their whole hearts to God. We are seeing a corrupting rot especially in the Federal government and some state governments that is spreading because of our sins. I pray almost everyday that the Bill of Rights and the United States Constitution will be preserved as long as there is a band of Christians that possesses this land.
  9. 23 Then Joseph said unto the people, Behold, I have bought you this day and your land for Pharaoh: lo, here is seed for you, and ye shall sow the land. 24 And it shall come to pass in the increase, that ye shall give the fifth part unto Pharaoh, and four parts shall be your own, for seed of the field, and for your food, and for them of your households, and for food for your little ones. 25 And they said, Thou hast saved our lives: let us find grace in the sight of my lord, and we will be Pharaoh's servants. 26 And Joseph made it a law over the land of Egypt unto this day, that Pharaoh should have the fifth part, except the land of the priests only, which became not Pharaoh's. ========================= It sounds to me like the Egyptians offered themselves to be Pharoah's servants (or slaves) out of desperation but Joseph instead placed a tax of 20 percent on all the people except the priests.
  10. I just read through Genesis Chapter 47. This is what Joseph did to the people of Egypt: For seven years he collected up a fifth of all the Egyptians' grain. He put it into storage for the disaster he knew was coming. When the bad years came, he sold it instead of giving it to the Egyptians. When the Egyptians had no more money, he took their livestock. And when all the livestock was gone the Egyptians traded their land for grain and seed. Joseph then told them for in the future they would give 20% of their harvests to Pharoah. They were not sold into slavery. I did not find the information you posted about selling themselves into slavery in Genesis chapter 47.
  11. I disagree. There are many oppressive governments that have taken far more from their people then the current United States government in history. But there is a corrupting rot in the Federal government and in some State governments. Many things won't get better until a larger number of people turn to God and ask [Him] to heal our land.
  12. I would also really like to see The Family, A Proclamation to the World and The Living Christ: The Testimony of the Apostles added to the Doctrine & Covenants scripture.
  13. I am a Level 2 Information Technology Technician. My job duties are mainly the following: * Computer operating system installs * Data back up from personal computers * Software installation and troubleshooting * Computer hardware troubleshooting * Warranty claims for hardware replacement With my wages and my wife's income we make enough to survive and save some toward retirement. Wage information I have found is just too general financial information to get a specific financial picture since the cost of living varies so much across the country. Then there is debt people incur to pay for items they want. If you make $110,000 per year but have a $4,500 per month home mortgage, pay a $1,500 per month for two car payments, have a boat you financed at around $900 per month and other multiple debts you are paying on then you are not doing so good financially.
  14. Sorry this happened to you Backroads. I really hope you get all of your money back. This re-affirms a belief I have on keeping some cash in your house hidden safely for situations like this. If you can in the future get $500 to $1,000 in cash reserves in your house. Keep a few fifties, and some twenties, tens and about fifteen one dollar bills for bad situations. Also do what others have suggested and talk to your Bishop about your situation. I hope all works out well for you.
  15. I was thinking it was time to change the oil in my car or time to go out to the shooting range. I was wrong.
  16. The day came and went and nothing spectacular happened as I thought. A bunch of basement dwellers who would not get off the sofa to go for a two mile walk were going to storm Area 51 where deadly force is authorized to protect the borders. Yep no surprise.
  17. These people may attend church or church socials but they are not in the Kingdom of God. Hopefully they will repent and turn to God so Christ may heal them before they depart this mortal life.
  18. Where does most of the Earth's Oxygen come from? Scientists agree that there’s oxygen from ocean plants in every breath we take. Most of this oxygen comes from tiny ocean plants – called phytoplankton – that live near the water’s surface and drift with the currents. Like all plants, they photosynthesize – that is, they use sunlight and carbon dioxide to make food. A byproduct of photosynthesis is oxygen. Scientists believe that phytoplankton contribute between 50 to 85 percent of the oxygen in Earth’s atmosphere. They aren’t sure because it’s a tough thing to calculate.

  19. Do not also forget to figure in inflation (the devaluing of the America dollar). About every 18 to 20 years your money loses half of its purchasing power.
  20. Personally I do not care if other good people ignore what this new policy says about firearms. It is a feel good provision that will do nothing to stop someone who wants to maliciously hurt others. If you feel the desire to carry a firearm in church and have the proper training to do so no one is going to search you and very likely no one will know. Do whatever the LORD reveals to you on the subject.
  21. KScience, just so you know the United States and the United Kingdom count murders differently according to the information I found. In the United States we count murders that are unsolved and have no convictions, but the United Kingdom does not. If a murder has no conviction or is unsolved they do not count it in the United Kingdom. This also makes comparing the murder rate like comparing apples and oranges in these two countries.
  22. Wrong thread. Deleted
  23. Rejoice with me! I just got a letter in the mail from my company. It said that we would get a profit share from our company that I work at. I will be given around $1,350 deposited into an Individual Retirement Account. This made me very happy today. I do not ever remember getting a profit share from any company that I have worked at before.
  24. Get used to it sadly. As the Second Coming of the LORD gets closer war will be poured out upon all nations according to my understanding of the LORD's word. Men's hearts will grow cold and many shall hate one another. But he that remains steadfast and endures to the end will be saved in the kingdom of God.
  25. The People of Ammon also made a covenant that they would never take up arms against their fellow men again. I never intend to make a covenant like this. I will defend my family or loved ones if I must even unto bloodshed. Killing in self defense is an extreme but it is not against the commandments of God nor is it a sin.
