"We can't spend our time always looking for a tragedy, here and there. A tragedy here, another one there, that could motivate us to be prepared to the second coming of Jesus. No, our message is not a message of fear or sensationalism. It is a message based on hope, security not anxiety and fear. We are moved by hope." Pastor Erton C. Köhler What a breath of fresh air.

This lobbing group has received a lot of attention recently. They claim to have 5 million members and are reported to be one of the most powerful lobbing groups. Thomas Massie, from Kentucky has created a large controversy about this group. Even accusing them of trying to unseat him. On the internet there are a large number of Anti-Jewish people. Now with this war, the Anti Jew, Anti AIPAC is growing to a fever pitch. I am concerned where this is going. I have an (Old) Adventist friend who was put in a concentration camp in Europe. His whole family was imprisoned because they keep the Sabbath. They considered them as Jews. As this Anti-Jewish sentiment grows, I am concerned about backlash against Seventh-day Adventists, because they keep the Sabbath.

We should be concerned! It won't be long and many blue laws that are the books that haven't been enforced in the past number of years, but they're there and can easily be re-enforced when needed and become Sunday laws with no problem!!

We met him at Eden Valley in 2020. Excellent doctor for us all undergoing natural remedies and treatments. He was an ER doctor as well. very dedicated person and his death is a shock to me

Heidi died on April 5, 2015. She died at Eden Valley. I met her about 50 years ago, as I passed through Uchee Pines. Although we never really got acquainted, I was very impressed by her demeanor. She was, I suspect, one of those rare gems whose price is far above rubies. If she was everything I imagined her to be, she deserves acknowledgement and respect for a life well iived.

He was battling Motor Neuron Disease, a neurological disorder that destroys motor neurons, which control skeletal muscle activity such as walking, breathing, speaking and swallowing, according to the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke..... Patrick was diagnosed with the disorder in February 2023, Sheehan said. “He was admitted 10 days ago and was cared for by the incredible team there. He passed peacefully surrounded by family and friends,” she wrote. Patrick’s wife said their family is “broken-hearted” over his death..... At the end of her post, Sheehan included Patrick’s favorite quote from Irish poet Brendan Behan: “The most important things to do in the world are to get something to eat, something to drink and somebody to love you.” “So, don’t overthink it,” she added in her own words. “Eat. Drink. Love.”

🕯️ Remembering Robert Mueller Robert Mueller, the former FBI director who as special counsel probed President Trump and Russian interference in the 2016 election, died at 81 on Friday night. His family said last year he was battling Parkinson's disease. Mueller's probe resulted in a series of criminal cases against people in Trump's orbit and earned him the president's lasting ire, Axios' Ben Berkowitz and Avery Lotz write. At the FBI, Mueller set about almost immediately overhauling the bureau's mission to meet the law enforcement needs of the 21st century, beginning his 12-year tenure just one week before the Sept. 11 attacks and serving presidents of both parties. He was the second-longest-serving director in FBI history, behind only J. Edgar Hoover. (AP) Screenshot: Truth Social Former President George W. Bush said: "Bob dedicated his life to public service. As a Marine in Vietnam, he proved he was ready for tough assignments. He earned a Bronze Star and a Purple Heart before returning home to pursue law. In 2001, only one week into the job as the 6th Director of the F.B.I., Bob transitioned the agency mission to protecting the homeland after September 11. He led it effectively, helping prevent another terrorist attack on U.S. soil." Former President Obama wrote: "Bob Mueller was one of the finest directors in the history of the FBI, transforming the bureau after 9/11 and saving countless lives. But it was his relentless commitment to the rule of law and his unwavering belief in our bedrock values that made him one of the most respected public servants of our time." N.Y.
