Morality Cannot Be Redefined

Dear Abby Advises Compromise
family is torn apart by son-in-law who now chooses to be addressed as a female, while still married to daughter/sister.


















so many teens are lost and losing themselves while seeking acceptance 
In this Dec. 4, 2014 file photo, Elliott Kunerth, 17, a transgender male high school student in Mankato, hugs his girlfriend, Kelsi Pettit, 17, after the Minnesota State High School League board voted to pass the Model Gender Identity Participation in MSHSL Activities Policy in Brooklyn Park, Minn. A study released Monday, Feb. 5, 2018, from an analysis of a 2016 statewide survey of nearly 81,000 Minnesota teens, suggests that far more U.S. teens are transgender or gender nonconforming than previously thought, with many rejecting the idea that girl and boy are the only possible genders.

End of Publication

The Goshen Gazette has had a five year run.  As the editor in chief, I like to think it's been a good run, filled with good information that has given many of us, cause to think.  Also, as the editor in chief, I feel the cares of the world begin to choke me as publishing day approaches and that isn't good for my spiritual well being . . .

There will still be a publication coming from this desktop, but the focus is going to be more on what we can do as individuals.  The reality is:  what is going on, has been prophesied, and we can't change it, or we dare not . . . but we can change ourselves and be prepared to be a light shining in the dark hours that are on the horizon of these end of days.  This coming publication will encourage and give ideas about further lessening our dependency on the world system, before it becomes One World System.  The coming publication will also provide links that support prayer requests and discussions, away from public social media; and although it is still the internet, a bit more privacy is protected in that the domains are privately owned.

Basically, this editor feels a real urgency to make options available to those who are seeing "the handwriting on the wall" in regard to our food, water, and health in general.  It is my firm belief that our physical health would be better if we lessened our dependency on the world system and addressed the potential spiritual and emotional variables of our well being or disease.

Bethesda Holistic Wellness is a brick and mortar centre for what our society recognizes as "alternative" health.  There will be a regular e-newsletter, giving information for healthy living, as well as dates for workshops.

Wise Advice from a Farmer's Wife

I did not write this and I cannot find the author to give proper credit, but the advice is stellar!

Whenever you return a borrowed pie pan, make sure it's got a warm pie in it.
Invite lots of folks to supper. You can always add more water to the soup.
There's no such thing as woman's work on a farm. There's just work.
Make home a happy place for the children. Everybody returns to their happy place.
Always keep a small light on in the kitchen window at night.
If your man gets his truck stuck in the field, don't go in after him. Throw him a rope and pull him out with the tractor.
Keep the kerosene lamp away from the the milk cow's leg.
It's a whole lot easier to get breakfast from a chicken than a pig.
Always pat the chickens when you take their eggs.
It's easy to clean an empty house, but hard to live in one.
All children spill milk. Learn to smile and wipe it up.
Homemade's always better'n store bought.
A tongue's like a knife. The sharper it is the deeper it cuts.
A good neighbor always knows when to visit and when to leave.
A city dog wants to run out the door, but a country dog stays on the porch 'cause he's not fenced-in.
Always light birthday candles from the middle outward.
Nothin' gets the frustrations out better'n splittn' wood.
The longer dress hem, the more trusting the husband.
Enjoy doing your children's laundry. Some day they'll be gone.
You'll never catch a runnin' chicken but if you throw seed around the back door you'll have a skillet full by supper.
Biscuits brown better with a little butter brushed on 'em.
Check your shoelaces before runnin' to help somebody.
Visit old people who can't get out. Some day you'll be one.
The softer you talk, the closer folks'll listen.
The colder the outhouse, the warmer the bed.

REPENT!

by Kurt Schanaman

Before Islamic attacks get started in earnest, here is my message to the people of my country, whether anyone wants to hear it or not. Here is what I know about the situation we as a nation find ourselves in.
I AM going to be frank and truthful. The following words are going to be difficult to hear. Especially for Christendom.
All throughout scriptures, we see how the Creator deals with nations and people who have departed from His ways. He ALWAYS begins with people who claim He is their God but thumb their noses at His instructions, holy days, and commandments. That, today, is not only Judaism (which has become secular rather than orthodox) AND those calling themselves 'His church'.
You have departed from His calendar, His appointed holy days, His law. You have used Paul's writings in a twisted fashion to make the claim His ways are no longer relevant to you. Thus, though you FEEL emotionally in your heart that He is with you on your defense, He is NOT. You are merely experiencing brain chemicals produced from upbeat song and dance during 'praise services'. You try to offer praise to Him, but then in your everyday affairs you denounce His ways. You shun those who have tried to lovingly warn you. It has been to no avail.
Lip service without a heart of loving sacrifice through willful obedience to His Instructions. You have turned your ears from hearing of His law (instructions for living) and, as such, even your prayers to Him are an abomination.
I have seen and experienced the demons of abortion, homosexuality, sexual misconduct, pride, envy, boastfulness, anger, hatred, and murder. Some of those have even been successful against me. But I have seen the deception, have treated myself harshly in my own failings with much sadness and despair. But the majority do not for their own wrongs against Him.
Because of open rebellion against His ways, He began His warnings on 9/11/2001, and an economic warning in fall of 2008 (recall the Dow fell 777 points... who's number is that? Who's signature???) Yet His people continued in rebellion against His ways. Their prayers powerless against evil. Legalized abortion continued. Abominable genetic sciences continue unabated... an affront to His created beings. Homosexual marriage has been legalized, even tolerated among young 'church people'... again, another abomination against His created order.
And the powerlessness of their prayers continue, as even those prayers are an abomination to Him. For the people are filled with the spirit of law-less-ness.
"GRACE ONLY! THE LAW IS DEAD!!", they chant proudly, living lives of unbridled permissiveness and licentiousness (license to transgress).
"And we will escape the judgment in rapture!", they proclaim. Oh, but they WILL NOT!!
YAHUAH, ADONAI TSABAOTH (Master over the Hosts) has removed His hand of merciful government leadership. In its place He has established for the nation an enemy no one is permitted to cut down. It will remain.
Through it, He has opened your borders to an enemy who will spill your blood. They will terrorize you (constant threat) and will eat your substance (illegal immigrants being given your tax money, social security money, retirement money). They will establish foreign laws over your land and extort you (Obamacare, etc). In so doing, you will be plundered and pillaged to oblivion. The giver has given, but now the giver will take it away.
The soil beneath your feet will open to swallow you and your possessions in various places much more frequently. The sun of an age of mercy sets in the West and the night of reckoning now arrives. Something NEW can be heard coming in the East.
You spent billions on entertainment and comforts while countless millions have shivered in the cold, gone to bed hungry, been slaughtered by their enemies with no way to defend themselves, clothe themselves, feed themselves.
Behold the rider 'DEATH' now rides.
What can you possibly do? REPENT!!
REPENT does not mean asking for forgiveness, only to then continue refusal to live His instructions willfully and in love. It does not mean 'to be sorry' only. But rather to return to living HIS INSTRUCTIONS and getting others to join you in doing so. Those instructions are all found from Genesis through Deuteronomy. Add THOSE instructions to the ones you already know from what Yeshua Messiah taught.
But do not obey those instructions with the attitude they are meant to buy you any brownie points from Him. Your heart should want to live them out of thanksgiving BECAUSE OF THE MERCY AND GRACE HE HAS ALREADY SHOWN YOU. Obey out of respect and love for the One who tells your heart to beat and your lungs to breathe. Those gifts from Him are alone WORTHY of absolute love and gratitude. Remember the comforts and warm meals He has made you capable of obtaining. Remember the times of plenty. A grateful heart over these GIFTS is a loving heart that WANTS to obey His desires. His instructions for living and worshiping Him.
You must surrender entirely to Him, dying to your desires and wants. Replacing them with fulfilling HIS DESIRES AND WANTS. And it must be a true change of heart. Not out of fear, but out of love for Him in spite of the challenges now coming upon a judged nation.
He may likely have to destroy the U.S.A. because a majority will blame Him, mock Him, and criticize Him for being a 'cruel God' rather than repent. But those who will LOVINGLY obey, continuing to kneel to Him with absolute humility, and calling upon the name of His LAMB over them... YAHUSHA/YESHUA, such WILL BE protected and led out of His wrath.
ONLY the obedient, who also proclaim YAHUSHA/YESHUA as His sent Messiah, will make it through what has now come through the gates. No other.
REPENT, OBEY, LOVE YOUR ELOHIM!!
HE AWAITS A NUMBER WHO WILL WORSHIP HIM IN SACRIFICIAL LOVE AND IN TRUTH.
He... is... WAITING FOR YOU!!

The Consequences of Sin

by Tricia Pollok

We are responsible for the consequences of our sin.
One of the consequences of my personal sin was that my son developed autism. I accept that my rebellion resulted in my whole world changing, and evil touching, and nearly destroying my family.
Sin is defined in the first 5 books of Scripture, and John gives the New Testament readers a reminder of what it is. In 1 John 3:4, he says "Everyone doing sin also does lawlessness, and sin is lawlessness." Since most would agree that the Law is the Torah, if you disobey it, you are in sin.
Since I was disobeying it, I was in sin, even when I had good intentions, and thought I was loving Him with all my heart, I was still in rebellion, and I payed dearly for it. Fortunately, the depths of the pit I was in compelled me to cry out to Him, surrendering to whatever He told me to do. It was at that point, that He reached down and began to show me I was living my own way.
Sometimes He takes us to the pit of hell to show us His mercy. I was there, and I returned, and today, I am so grateful for that refining fire, and praise Him for His redemption and purpose for my life. He showed me His Truth through the demonic hell I went through with Jackson, because I wanted the Truth more than anything in my life. Do you desire the Truth more than ANYTHING? Are you willing to follow Him at ANY cost?
I no longer blame the enemy for Jackson's autism. Doors were opened in my life for attack because I was walking against His Ways. Is there evil in this world that contributed to his autism? Yes, there is. But my sin and the sin of this Nation, who has turned their back on Messiah Yeshua, the Torah in the Flesh, is to blame. YHVH is allowing that evil in our nation because of America's rebellion. I took responsibility, which lead to repentance. Most may feel blessed at this time, and think they are on the right path, believing they are worshiping the One True God, even while walking contrary to His Will, the Torah. I thought I was on the right path too...until I realized that He never changes. We cannot pick and choose from Scripture and define sin according to what we want it to be, and what fits in with our lifestyles. Stop fooling yourself. Stop blaming everyone else for the way our country is headed. Turn to Him.

Cult?

by Kimberly Murphy

I have to smile a little when people have said to me, " Are you sure you're not in some kind of cult?"
If by cult you mean being a part of thousands upon thousands of believers all over the world who sensed they were not getting the whole truth in their churches and began asking questions that were not getting honest biblical answers, then yes, I'm in a cult.
If by cult you mean people who broke out of their religious boxes, and whose eyes were opened to finally recognize that their Messiah and the disciples were not only Jews but also Torah observant even after Jesus died, and began to dig into the Hebrew roots of their Christian faith and begin to study and learn like the "early church" did in biblical times, and walk as the Savior walked then yes, lol... I'm in a cult. The "truth seeking" cult. And my leader? His name is Yahshua. (Jesus) wink emoticon
John 8:31-32
Then Yahshua (Jesus) said to those Jews who believed Him, “If you abide in MY WORD, you are My disciples indeed. And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.”
