How does HE(GOD ALMIGHTY) know what I am doing now?

Your soul is the connection by which GOD and each of us is connected.
How can that be?
Your soul is not of this earth nor even of this universe. It can not be measured, weighted, stolen or located. And, yet, the soul which HE placed in you is part of HIM also. Therefore wheresoever you go, HE is there or at least a tiny piece of HIM is there. The result of this connection is that Your thoughts, actions, desires and anything else that you care to put in the mix, is known, whether you are at the bottom of the ocean, or center of the earth or on the moon, GOD Knows because You know.
Your soul is your most valuable possession, and treated by most as NOTHING. It is important enough that even GOD will not force you to chose HIM(Freedom of Choice or Free Will-- there is nothing else. You choose Right or Wrong; Good or Evil; You are FOR GOD or Against GOD).
Genesis 2:7 Then the LORD God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul.
Leviticus 19:8 But every one that eateth it shall bear his iniquity, because he hath profaned the holy thing of the LORD; and that soul shall be cut off from his people.
Leviticus 20:6 And the soul that turneth unto the ghosts, and unto the familiar spirits, to go astray after them, I will even set My face against that soul, and will cut him off from among his people.
Isaiah 42:1 Behold My servant, whom I uphold; Mine elect, in whom My soul delighteth; I have put My spirit upon him, he shall make the right to go forth to the nations.
Ezekiel 18:4 Behold, all souls are Mine; as the soul of the father, so also the soul of the son is Mine; the soul that sinneth, it shall die.
Each of these is an example of how the soul is the recipient of results, accountable and valued by GOD showing good and evil. Google finds 251 "Soul" statements in the Tanakh (Old Testament).
You can find a JPS1917 version of Tanakh at http://www.mechon-mamre.org/p/pt/pt0.htm --Shalom Yaakov
Any Question? Any Comments?
Why should we be concerned about relationship and sex laws?
I started of this in a different place and needed to rethink the idea of relationships. More a presentation from a different point of view, rather than a change in what I know and do.
In today’s world, political correctness is literally killing the masses of people. No, not all in one day but over the decades and from many directions. Even with the dangers like: war, famine, disease, earth quakes and other such events, this is the single greatest hazard to the population earth. Political correctness is designed to kill more families and destroy more humans than any other force, used by mankind. This weapon is used “for and against” Socialist, Communist, Liberals and “just against” Conservatives, Nationalist, and every version of religion. The result leaves only the Ultra-elitist, who plan to be untouched.
So what are some of the required actions which this mass killing, via political correctness. What are people being taught, really?
1) There is no truth!, so “my words” or anybody else’s words are only as good as the person that speaks and up holds their word. Yet the idea of most is that no one is accountable so it’s okay to change your words. [Your word’s but not those people’s word!]
2) No one can be trusted!, for he or she can change their position on everything at will, then walk out anytime and take everything(possessions, family, friends, peace of mind, house, . . . .). The result is that trusting someone to make them a part of you may destroy you. So, why get married when they can do that to me? NO marriage, no commitment, no family, no offspring, death of family bloodlines. Some find this a reason to stop living all together.
3) Love with the same sex is great for you, so you should have all you want! When man to man, and woman to woman relationships are acceptable, the result is the death of the bloodlines of each family involved. Let us not forget personal consequences like: diseases, cancers, AIDs, . . . .
4) The Families, not so important! So I can marry and maybe have children, after I have my education, have traveled, played around, get my career settled; or when the things of life(fun) settle down. Let’s call this the “I Want To Get This Done First” process. Life never settles down, it is death that slows us down, as far as I know.
5) Drugs are okay!, it is only recreational after all. What these do to a person, the DNA and the family is well known, but too many just do not like the answer. They ignore the answer and continue. This is also in the “I Want To Get This Done First” process; and in the I Want . . . Process which results in the I, I, I, . . . . Process. A pun here: the “I’s” have it. No, not really.
The Outcome) No god, No rules, No responsibilities, No family, No purpose to life, No love, No commitment. The resulting idea becomes: I can do whatever I like, to whomever I like, and enjoy myself as long as I can, for this is MY LIFE. A life of sorrow, empty of love and purpose, will end up short and meaningless, save all the harm this person has done to others.
Why are these “NO” statements, being taught to the children, teens, adults, and people everywhere? Not everybody seems to act according to these teachings(Evil). The Ultra-Mega Rich or Elitist do not believe any of this. Look at them, they only tell you that it is okay. But, it is not how they are willing to live.
Maybe you are being set-up for something, where they benefit, but you (most people) will not benefit? Lots of sex, and no responsibility, things become boring.
So a woman gets pregnant, without a husband, which leaves her with the child or children. She then is guided to family planning to get this fixed(aborted) and maybe she loses the ability to have anymore children(a family line or maybe two family lines are lost). This is killing many families and the reducing the number of people on earth. Yet, with these common ideas, the death of that child has no meaning, so the mother will be told. Can you not see the outcome of your actions? You should rethink what you have been sold, paid for with your very life and why are you buying. Maybe you should change your life today. Or NOT, it will be over very quickly, and you are the sacrifice they are willing to give.
Now, I will tell you that everyone of those five points are the Opposite Of The ALMIGHTY and HIS WORD.
First, Whom Should You Trust? The ALMIGHTY GOD, UPHOLDS HIS EVERY WORD, and has the power to enforce. Every Man and those wishing to be equal to a Man, are to uphold their every Word or Vow. In short, actions compared to the words define whom to trust. Trust has nothing to do with faith, in that Trust is based upon the evidence of one’s(each person’s) actions.
From my own memories of times past in the United States Of America, a mans reputation could mean life or death for him. The easiest way to get in a fight for your life, would be to declare harm to another man’s reputation. Sometimes deals and commitments were done simply upon a handshake or verbally stated between the two parties. So we were warned against lying, saying and failing to do, making promises you could not keep or did not intend to keep. Because when you needed help in time of trouble, you might find it withheld, potentially cost you life.
Examples: Numbers 23:19 God is not a man, that He should lie; neither the son of man, that He should repent: when He hath said, will He not do it? or when He hath spoken, will He not make it good?
Isaiah 55:7 Let the wicked forsake his way, and the man of iniquity his thoughts; and let him return unto the LORD, and He will have compassion upon him, and to our God, for He will abundantly pardon. 8 For My thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways My ways, saith the LORD. 9 For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are My ways higher than your ways, and My thoughts than your thoughts. 10 For as the rain cometh down and the snow from heaven, and returneth not thither, except it water the earth, and make it bring forth and bud, and give seed to the sower and bread to the eater; 11 So shall My word be that goeth forth out of My mouth: it shall not return unto Me void, except it accomplish that which I please, and make the thing whereto I sent it prosper.
Jeremiah 1:12 Then said the LORD unto me: ‘Thou hast well seen; for I watch over My word to perform it.’
If these have not informed you and you are still in doubt about HIS WORD, try reading Jeremiah 23, the false speech issue.
If these have not informed you and you are still in doubt about HIS WORD, try reading Jeremiah 23, the false speech issue.
Second, No one can be trusted! The LORD GOD ALMIGHTY is against False Witnesses, those that lie, do not uphold their word. As in:
Exodus 20:12 Thou shalt not murder. Thou shalt not commit adultery. Thou shalt not steal. Thou shalt not bear false witness against thy neighbour.
Nor speak it using the LORD as your assurance of the truth. This would be:
Exodus 20:6 Thou shalt not take the name of the LORD thy God in vain; for the LORD will not hold him guiltless that taketh His name in vain.
Numbers 30:3 When a man voweth a vow unto the LORD, or sweareth an oath to bind his soul with a bond, he shall not break his word; he shall do according to all that proceedeth out of his mouth. 4 Also when a woman voweth a vow unto the LORD, and bindeth herself by a bond, being in her father’s house, in her youth, 5 and her father heareth her vow, or her bond wherewith she hath bound her soul, and her father holdeth his peace at her, then all her vows shall stand, and every bond wherewith she hath bound her soul shall stand. But if her father disallow her in the day that he heareth, none of her vows, or of her bonds wherewith she hath bound her soul, shall stand; and the LORD will forgive her, because her father disallowed her. . . .
Deuteronomy 23:22 When thou shalt vow a vow unto the LORD thy God, thou shalt not be slack to pay it; for the LORD thy God will surely require it of thee; and it will be sin in thee.
23 But if thou shalt forbear to vow, it shall be no sin in thee.
Third, Sex rules. Here is that most fun subject, sex. For anyone over the age of puberty, this subject is usually on the mind and drives your actions on many levels. When you actually know the Written Torah, you will discover that there are only a few Laws and rules. The greatest issue seems to be about self control. We are given a drive to create life, or as in “Genesis 1: 28 And God blessed them; and God said unto them: ‘Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth, and subdue it; and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that creepeth upon the earth.’” We are in to the “Be Fruitful and Multiply”. But, that is where the problems come in. Without some restraints on our desires, we become as the Time Of Noah, which did not work out well for the masses.
While all of that is Absolutely True, self-restraint is what we find in the Laws and Teachings of the Written Torah. Leviticus 18 and 19, declare what is permitted and not permitted. These can be very specific in whom you(as a man, and there are a couple for woman) may and may not have relations with, such as:
Leviticus 18: 7 The nakedness of thy father, and the nakedness of thy mother, shalt thou not uncover: she is thy mother; thou shalt not uncover her nakedness.
Exodus 20: 12 Thou shalt not murder. Thou shalt not commit adultery. Thou shalt not steal. Thou shalt not bear false witness against thy neighbor. [ Adultery is having carnal knowledge of another man’s wife.]13 Thou shalt not covet thy neighbour’s house; thou shalt not covet thy neighbour’s wife, nor his man-servant, nor his maid-servant, nor his ox, nor his ass, nor any thing that is thy neighbour’s. [Coveting is desiring something with all of your heart. Something that which is not yours, but you want it! Possibly the deadliest sin. And in this context, will lead to Adultery.]
Exodus 22:15 And if a man entice a virgin that is not betrothed, and lie with her, he shall surely pay a dowry for her to be his wife.
In short Man to Man is NO. Man or woman dressing as the other is NO. Another man’s wife is NO. Too close of a blood relation to her, NO. These are the basics, and yet if you think about them, your self-control is your most important tool.
At no time, that I have found is there a Statement By THE ALMIGHTY GOD, that you will not have feelings, desires or wants, so self-control is required.
Your own personal thought is required to avoid problems and to know what is permitted. Why thought? Because sin happens when you just act upon your desires(feelings). So much so that,
Your own personal thought is required to avoid problems and to know what is permitted. Why thought? Because sin happens when you just act upon your desires(feelings). So much so that,
“Leviticus 18: 9 The nakedness of thy sister, the daughter of thy father, or the daughter of thy mother, whether born at home, or born abroad, even their nakedness thou shalt not uncover.” Where someone that you did not know was your sister, could cause you to sin. This can be avoided, as with most sins, by learning about who you desire, more than just “she looks good and I want!”.
A great example of restraint is found in:
“Deuteronomy 21: 10 When thou goest forth to battle against thine enemies, and the LORD thy God delivereth them into thy hands, and thou carriest them away captive, 11 and seest among the captives a woman of goodly form, and thou hast a desire unto her, and wouldest take her to thee to wife; 12 then thou shalt bring her home to thy house; and she shall shave her head, and pare her nails; 13 and she shall put the raiment of her captivity from off her, and shall remain in thy house, and bewail her father and her mother a full month; and after that thou mayest go in unto her, and be her husband, and she shall be thy wife. 14 And it shall be, if thou have no delight in her, then thou shalt let her go whither she will; but thou shalt not sell her at all for money, thou shalt not deal with her as a slave, because thou hast humbled her.”
All of this text requires self-control, as your house, family, finances and well being are effected by your actions during your lust. So, the LORD puts in place delays, so that you may more clearly think about your actions. If you consider this delaying process, none sense, then consider that the LORD Spoke to Cain, warning him about his feelings just prior to to Cain killing Able. The Text:
“Genesis 4:6 And the LORD said unto Cain: ‘Why art thou wroth? and why is thy countenance fallen? 7 If thou doest well, shall it not be lifted up? and if thou doest not well, sin coucheth at the door; and unto thee is its desire, but thou mayest rule over it.’” [Use Self-Control]
Self-control is what you must work on, or more along the lines of today, “Be Picky” for this person will be the father or mother of your children and you could get stuck with them. You will also be sleeping with everyone that person has slept with. A short example of this is:
Leviticus 18:8 The nakedness of thy father’s wife shalt thou not uncover: it is thy father’s nakedness.[This is not your mother.] One more:
Leviticus 18: 10 The nakedness of thy son’s daughter, or of thy daughter’s daughter, even their nakedness thou shalt not uncover; for theirs is thine own nakedness.
Many things are frowned upon but not forbidden, like a prostitute. Yet, given the examples above, you might be sleeping with someone you are not aloud to have sex with. Better think about what you are doing and the consequences of your actions.

Fourth, The Families, not so important! Life never settles down, especially when you have children. These delaying family and children for other desires as listed above, are processes lead to finding that one is out of time to have children; or no longer can have a child; and/or we know now that more children with problems born to elder parents, who do not have the strength to keep up with their child so either need them to be calm or the child are raising themselves(or other people and schools do it) so where do you keep the law saying:
“Deuteronomy 6:7….thou shalt teach them diligently unto thy children”?. The reduction in family, size and meaning are lost. This is teaching the next generation that they don’t need family.
Other outcomes which arise from the “I Want To Get This Done First” can be: Having so much “fun” you are unwilling to stop; Maybe became sterile on purpose so that you could have fun and not worry; Never looked for someone to make a family with; That you are known to have had many partners, so now you are not considered a “good” partner prospect. There are so many outcomes possible from the “I Want To Get This Done First”, yet I personally know people in each of those categories I wrote above.
Everything preceding to this involves family and what that family will act like, value and become. When you are young, your hormones drive you, but you also need to Trust Your Family and then others. Family because that is be the ultimate support in the human world, because it is they, who are your Foundation. Where you come from, your life long support system, of which you are part. Unless of course, you come from a BAD family; but then what kind of family(foundation) will you build if you don’t know what a good family is? Remember that the Father of Your SOUL is THE ALMIGHTY. HE always demonstrates good family values, because HE defined what that looks like. Trust is also paramount with friends and community, but they are second to family. And just like being in the family, the community you are part of must be the example of what you want to receive back. The compete Written Torah and the Tanakh(Old Testament) is about family values. These give the rules and demonstrate the good and the bad, and why the outcomes happened. This requires more thought and understanding that most are will to attempt. So, follow the Laws and Teaching of the ALMIGHTY, for they are Righteous and Just.
Proof Text: “Exodus 19:5 Now therefore, if ye will hearken unto My voice indeed, and keep My covenant, then ye shall be Mine own treasure from among all peoples; for all the earth is Mine; 6 and ye shall be unto Me a kingdom of priests, and a holy nation. These are the words which thou shalt speak unto the children of Israel.’”
The importance of Family in the WRITTEN TORAH, Tanakh, are what I would usually display but, time I will offer a link to “What We Lose With Only Two Children Per Family”(http://thefederalist.com/2015/02/25/what-we-lose-with-only-two-children-per-family/) a well thought out article.
Or NYTimes Size Of US Family Continues To Drop Census Bureau Says(1988) (http://www.nytimes.com/1988/06/02/us/size-of-us-family-continues-to-drop-census-bureau-says.html)
Gatestone Institute: Childless European Leaders are ‘Sleepwalking Us to Disaster’(http://www.cnsnews.com/news/article/theresa-smith/gatestone-institute-childless-european-leaders-are-sleepwalking-us)
Why would you be told that family is not important?
In order to destroy you, as a people, as a country; as a family physically, emotionally, mentally; they must tell you that FAMILY is nothing! That way they destroy your foundation and that of your community, and country.
Is there anything good about such a statement? I cannot find one good thing to say, except there will be more space for those that remain.
In contrast:Mottos and values, that have been the center for the United States of America’s strength: GOD, Country, Family. My personal values are: GOD, Family, Community and Country.
These create life, family, civilization, respect, honor, a reason to strive to be better, and a meaning to your personal existence. Maybe we have forgot our individual purpose for having an existence on this earth.In a nut shell: We are to choose, GOD ALMIGHTY versus any other, by keeping HIS Covenants, Laws and Teachings, or not. Then if are able, we are to Be Fruitful and Multiply to fill the Earth.
Fifth, Drugs are okay! This should be simple. Anything that takes away your reasoning, thought process or modifies you Mind, Heart and control of your self is BAD for YOU. There is a lot of money in Drugs. Both the Legal and Illegal, with the larger money being in the LEGAL drugs. Sum of these will save your life, from a virus or other life threatening issues. And all drugs have side effects, many that are as likely to kill you sooner rather than later, especially when used incorrectly. Super bugs evolve because of improper use and knowledge of the antibiotics, we haven’t learned. There are those that advocate the use and legalization of certain compounds, using statements that tobacco, alcohol and coffee are legal drugs. They can do harm, so we should have the right to choose what we want to use.
My simple answer is: When you use something to escape your troubles, you don’t escape them, you multiply them.
This is not heard and is absolutely true. Self-control would be a great help here also.
Isaiah 28: 6 And for a spirit of judgment to him that sitteth in judgment, and for strength to them that turn back the battle at the gate. 7 But these also reel through wine, and stagger through strong drink; the priest and the prophet reel through strong drink, they are confused because of wine, they stagger because of strong drink; they reel in vision, they totter in judgment. 8 For all tables are full of filthy vomit, and no place is clean. {This demonstrates that strong, wise and good people, without self-control are worthless.}
Isaiah 29: 9 Stupefy yourselves, and be stupid! Blind yourselves, and be blind! ye that are drunken, but not with wine, that stagger, but not with strong drink.
The point of showing these is that: Wine and Alcohol is permissible, but without self-control too much IS NOT GOOD! Addiction and lose of control of your thoughts and your person are not acceptable. Beware of those things that will change YOU, for you maybe giving up everything for nothing.
The Outcome: No god, No rules, No responsibilities, No family, No purpose to life, No love, No commitment. This seems to be a summation of everything BAD to this point. So that only an absolute fool would say these are good and right. It becomes obvious that those saying such ideas are striving to destroy YOU. By their willful actions and words, or by their ignorance and self-pride. Yet!, You decide that will happen to you. Maybe you could not hear or understand that which I have written here. Maybe you don’t want to know. Be assured that Your outcome is your responsibility, your faulty. Whatever your outcome is, you chose it by your action or lack of action. Everything comes down to your choices and your actions.
Moses wrote it better, after making the Covenant again, including the Blessing and the Curses, before going into the land promised to your fathers.
“Deuteronomy 30: 15 See, I have set before thee this day life and good, and death and evil, 16 in that I command thee this day to love the LORD thy God, to walk in His ways, and to keep His commandments and His statutes and His ordinances; then thou shalt live and multiply, and the LORD thy God shall bless thee in the land whither thou goest in to possess it.”
Did you see this verse 16, “love the LORD thy God” GOD; “thou shalt live and multiply” Family; “ land whither thou goest” Country?
What follows here are some of the text demonstrating these purposes.
Genesis 1: 26 And God said: ‘Let us make man in our image, after our likeness; and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth.’27 And God created man in His own image, in the image of God created He him; male and female created He them.28 And God blessed them; and God said unto them: ‘Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth, and subdue it; and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that creepeth upon the earth.’
Genesis 2: 7 Then the LORD God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul.8 And the LORD God planted a garden eastward, in Eden; and there He put the man whom He had formed.
17 but of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, thou shalt not eat of it; for in the day that thou eatest thereof thou shalt surely die.’18 And the LORD God said: ‘It is not good that the man should be alone; I will make him a help meet for him.’19 And out of the ground the LORD God formed every beast of the field, and every fowl of the air; and brought them unto the man to see what he would call them; and whatsoever the man would call every living creature, that was to be the name thereof.
23 And the man said: ‘This is now bone of my bones, and flesh of my flesh; she shall be called Woman, because she was taken out of Man.’24 Therefore shall a man leave his father and his mother, and shall cleave unto his wife, and they shall be one flesh.
Genesis 3: 16 Unto the woman He said: ‘I will greatly multiply thy pain and thy travail; in pain thou shalt bring forth children; and thy desire shall be to thy husband, and he shall rule over thee.’ 17 And unto Adam He said: ‘Because thou hast hearkened unto the voice of thy wife, and hast eaten of the tree, of which I commanded thee, saying: Thou shalt not eat of it; cursed is the ground for thy sake; in toil shalt thou eat of it all the days of thy life.18 Thorns also and thistles shall it bring forth to thee; and thou shalt eat the herb of the field.19 In the sweat of thy face shalt thou eat bread, till thou return unto the ground; for out of it wast thou taken; for dust thou art, and unto dust shalt thou return.’20 And the man called his wife’s name Eve; because she was the mother of all living.
Genesis 9: 1 And God blessed Noah and his sons, and said unto them: ‘Be fruitful and multiply, and replenish the earth.
So there it is: Life and Death; Good and Evil; Nothingness or Meaning of life? You personally are out of time and your choices are catching up to you. What will you do now?
I can not save you, no one can. You must Return and do that which is Right.
I can show you the way, if you want to know.
IT is to our benefit to HEARKEN until the LIVING GOD OF ISHRAEL/ISRAEL, and to our pain and shame to do otherwise.
My prayer is that The LORD grant you eyes that see, ears that hear and an understanding heart, then you may return unto HIM soon!(Isaiah 6: 9 And He said: ‘Go, and tell this people: hear ye indeed, but understand not; and see ye indeed, but perceive not. 10 Make the heart of this people fat, and make their ears heavy, and shut their eyes; lest they, seeing with their eyes, and hearing with their ears, and understanding with their heart, return, and be healed.’)
