As iron sharpens iron, so one man sharpens another! Prov. 27:17

In 2013 while on one of their trips to Israel, Bill and Susie Perkins began kicking around an idea for a Christian historical novel.
The purpose of the book would be to:
> Show the accuracy of the Bible,
> The importance of Bible prophecy and
> The Jewish connection to all Believers worldwide.
Bill was insistent that the novel should be Biblically accurate as it revealed scenes from the time of Christ to be up close and personal to the reader.
Above, Bill teaching on the Mount of Olives overlooking the Old City of Jerusalem.
Having accompanied 60+ tour groups to Israel, they knew the value of seeing the land of Israel first hand. But to get to Israel was expensive and time consuming, so only about 7% of Evangelical Christians get to Israel in their lifetime.
So Bill and Susie thought maybe they could publish a book that would bring the land of the Bible to Christians who couldn't afford to go.
On their Israel tours over the next six years they talked about different aspects of the story... how each of the book's Biblical characters would interact with the two main characters they referred to as Nick and Joe.
The plot developed into this rough outline:
Nick and Joe were wealthy members of the 71-member Sanhedrin, the Jewish legislative and judicial assembly that was the high court in ancient Israel.
Nick was a member of the Pharisees who were into Biblical law and traditions. Joe was a member of the Sadducees who were more politically oriented.
The whole Sanhedrin was made up of the High Priest, priests, scribes (lawyers) and elders. Not much different from Democrats and Republicans today.
But despite their political differences, Nick and Joe were good friends who had power, prestige and beautiful wives. And they were puzzled seeing this new man, Jesus, appear on the scene and doing so many obvious miracles. How could he do those things?
Nick had a large store on the Cardo in downtown Jerusalem where he sold a lot of different types of merchandise. In his inventory he had several Biblical scrolls from the Old Testament. Through his studies, he had become quite knowledgeable about the Torah and prophets like Isaiah, Daniel and Jeremiah.
Nick shared with Joe that in his holy scrolls there were several prophecies that Jesus seemed to be fulfilling. They began pouring over the scrolls finding one prophecy after another that Jesus was fulfilling. Hence they began making a list of all the fulfilled prophecies...and the list got longer and longer.
Jesus' fame was increasing each day and He was becoming so popular He was a threat to the power the Romans had given to the Sanhedrin. So most of the Sanhedrin were vehemently opposed to anyone talking positive about Jesus.
Nick and Joe felt they had no choice but to keep quiet about what they were finding in the scripture scrolls lest they lose their powerful and lucrative seats in government.
By 2018 Bill and Susie had a rough idea of how the book would flow but neither were novel writers. Amazingly, God brought a novel writer into their life—Buck Storm. And Buck was not just another novel writer, he was an award-winning and quite successful novel writer.
Bill presented the book idea to Buck and he agreed to take on the project. Over the next 11 months, Bill and Buck met weekly going over what Buck had written that week.
When The List was finished, it was a page-turner! It follows the life of Nicodemus and Joseph of Arimathea, bringing to life what it was like living at the time of Christ.
From mind-bending visuals of what the ancient Passovers were like as the Jews sacrificed 20,000 lambs in a day to day-to-day life in ancient Israel, The List accurately opens up the time of Christ like never before.
The List was a winner of two 2nd place awards for Best Christian Historical Novel Of The Year 2020!!
With Easter coming up April 5, reading this book will change the way you think about Jesus' life, death, burial and resurrection! It will take you back to the time of Christ opening up h0w the Jews reacted to Jesus miracles.

---Clicking on any fuzzy picture below usually clears it up---
Before that day, Israel’s dominant doctrine was containment. Hamas in Gaza and Hezbollah in Lebanon were largely treated as threats that could be managed through deterrence, periodic military blows, and cautious steps.
Against Iran itself, Israel waged what it called the “war between the wars” – a shadow campaign of strikes, sabotage, and assassinations meant to slow Tehran’s buildup without triggering a full-scale confrontation. Quiet – even fragile quiet – was still prioritized above all else.
October 7 shattered that worldview.
The massacre exposed the dangers of allowing hostile forces to accumulate capabilities just across Israel’s borders while assuming deterrence would hold. The lesson drawn across much of Israel’s political and security establishment was stark: threats allowed to mature do not remain theoretical.
That realization now shapes the current war.
Israel’s decision to strike deep inside Iran, knowing full well it would trigger retaliation, reflects a willingness to accept immediate costs in order to prevent far greater dangers later.
It marks a stark departure from the earlier instinct to delay confrontation in hopes of avoiding escalation.
In effect, Israel has moved from managing threats to dismantling them. The calculation today is that waiting carries greater danger than acting – even if acting means putting your own population on a war footing for weeks at a time.

You’ll shake your head as you read this one! They've gone from to having to write code for all of their robots to do each task, to a whole new way of programming. Now the robot watches and learns, no new code needed!
Now they don’t write code for a robot to “grab a cup.” Instead, you show the robot thousands of examples of grasping objects—different shapes, weights, materials—and the neural net extracts the underlying patterns. It learns what “grasping” is at a representational level.
And every robot benefits from every robot's learning experience...so they'll all know how to grab a cup.
Fascinating article.

People are beginning to notice and question why something is quietly breaking human connection at the deepest level. We have to get to the bottom of what’s causing it.
Of course, you know what happened around the world in 2021 that is causing:
> Romantic partners feel distant.
> Intimacy lacks real passion or spontaneity.
> Emotional warmth is harder to find.
> And gender confusion has exploded, especially in the young.
This isn’t random. It’s the result of neurological changes. And some of those changes may be triggered by mass vaccination. ["may"?? That's the polite way to put it!]
That difference is difficult to ignore.

Here's something that should caution you against weight loss drugs like Ozempic: When you lose weight on these drugs, a significant portion of the weight loss is muscle, not fat.
After stopping the drug, clinical trials show that you will gain back 2/3 of the weight you lost within a year, but that weight gain is nearly all fat.
The muscle does not come back. This leaves your metabolism even slower than when you started.
This is how you end up on these drugs for the rest of your life, paying up to $1,000 a month.
The company behind Ozempic generated over $20 billion in a single year, and their internal strategy was not to cure obesity, but to create lifetime patients.

1990 to 2026:
It wasn’t until Heather Rodden began homeschooling her son in fifth grade that she realized what years of frustrated teachers couldn’t put their fingers on—what looked like a liability in one setting can flourish in another.
Like Rodden, other parents, researchers, and professionals are moving away from treating ADHD purely as a disorder that 1 in 10 kids have.
The word “deficit” in ADHD, they argue, obscures strengths—such as creativity, hyperfocus, and cognitive flexibility—that often accompany the condition.
“‘Different wiring’ isn’t automatically bad,” Dr. Daniel G. Amen, a psychiatrist and founder of Amen Clinics, brain-body clinics that use imaging instead of checklists for mental health issues, told The Epoch Times in an email. “Sometimes it’s simply diversity in how people think and create. ADHD isn’t a character flaw—it’s a brain pattern.”
At the heart of the matter is finding where and how people with ADHD will thrive.
An ADHD Brain
One frustration for people with ADHD is that it’s rarely lack of knowledge that holds them back. It is that their brains don’t consistently concentrate.
Focus requires a coordinated effort between the brain’s frontal control system, which helps you stay organized and resist distractions, the basal ganglia, which regulates motivation by using the reward chemical dopamine, and the cerebellum, which coordinates timing and attention. In ADHD brains, that coordination is inconsistent—not absent—but unreliable under demand.
“That helps explain inconsistent performance,” Amen said. “It’s called a disorder because it can disrupt performance at school, work, and home.”
Those with ADHD have specific strengths and outperformed others in divergent thinking, particularly in fluency (generating many ideas quickly) and flexibility (combining concepts in unexpected ways), according to findings reported in Frontiers in Psychiatry.
Of course, what causes ADHD is another subject ....

We first mentioned the problems with the Strait of Hormuz in a Compass eNews article in October, 2011. But despite the liberal press hurling its own missiles at President Trump, he will come out of this smelling like a rose. Jeff Childers explains in layman's language.
The chart below shows the losers from the strait being closed...Iran, China, Japan, India, South Korea, Europe, et al.
Europe almost shot themselves in the foot by initially not coming along side the USA. But apparently after thinking about it, they're warming up to the idea... since they're the ones who need the oil!

Lataster paper, published in peer-reviewed literature, shows a pattern of excess deaths that authorities don't even attempt to explain other than by hand-waving assertions that do not fit the data.
Article
56% believe side effects from the COVID-19 shots have likely caused a significant number of unexplained deaths. Nearly one-third (32%) say it’s very likely. Only 35% still dismiss the idea.
This was huge. The Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP) appointed by RFKjr is doing their job.
Jeff Childers summarized the leaked ACIP confidential Covid report saying
"The report shows the injuries are real, there’s no system to track them properly, there’s no diagnostic code to document them, there are no clinical guidelines to treat them, and the report was ‘written with a sense of urgency.’”
Report Summary:
In a recent public survey, over a third of those acknowledged to be vaccinated against COVID-19 reported that they had experienced side effects, with 10% of those reporting major side effects.
In another public survey, 24% of the participants reported that they knew someone who died from the adverse effects of COVID-19 vaccination.
Sentiment emerging from these public surveys contrasts sharply with CDC's current public communications, which formally recognize only a limited set of rare, acute adverse events as being associated with COVID-19 vaccines.
This report is written with a sense of urgency. Immediate actions must be taken to rectify the failure to recognize and track PACVS , to acknowledge the individuals injured following CDC vaccination recommendations, and to actively promote data collection, analysis, reporting, and clinical development of pathways for care.

More info on those robot vacuum cleaners spying in your house...
A man over in Spain tried to hack into his own vacuum cleaner robot, but instead, he accidentally hacked into 7,000 different vacuum robots—giving him direct access to live video feeds within people’s homes.
Basically, he discovered a backdoor within these Chinese-made robots that made them extremely open to being hacked.
This meant that if you had one of these vacuums in your home, he (and anyone else who knew about this feature) could literally see inside your home through the camera lens at the top of the unit.

(We had a presentation titled "Lines In The Skies" at Steeling the Mind last weekend.)
Geoengineering programs involve massive-scale, nearly continuous spraying of toxic heavy metal aerosols and multiple other microscopic materials into our skies, done with the expressed intention of blocking sunlight.
Three U.S. States — Florida, Louisiana and Tennessee — have already passed legislation to outlaw geoengineering within their borders.
Something nefarious is going on! But no one will talk about it!
Of course, if the bad guys distributed a worldwide poison, why would this be any different?

"I have seen more antisemitism on the right than at any point in my life," says Cruz. "It is dangerous and it risks consuming our party. I don't want us to make the same mistake Democrat leaders made a decade ago of just to look the other way and to be silent."
Senator Cruz argues that Carlson's rhetoric has specifically targeted evangelical Christians who support Israel.
"The target of this operation is you and me. It is evangelical Christians. Tucker Carlson has said there is nobody he hates more on planet Earth than Christian Zionists and he names specifically me and Mike Huckabee."
(There will come a day when Tucker Carlson will have to bend his knees to Jesus Christ ON THE THRONE IN JERUSALEM!)
