Imagine you are driving on a road you have driven countless times before. You turn on your right turn signal, move into the right turn lane when it is time and is clear to do so. You get to the end of the turn lane, stop, check to see if it is clear and safe to turn, then you turn. However you notice a white car dangerously turns into the turn lane and begins to follow you. At the next red light you see the white car behind you and wonder who they are. Then the light turns green and you begin driving. Just then the white car turns on red and blue flashing lights. You follow the law and pull over. The driver and passenger get out and you can see they are dressed like police. They ask you for your license and registration. Everything is fine and the cop says you can go. He keeps your license and goes to his car. Then he and the other one come out put on some gloves and pulls you out of your car and arrest you. You have never committed any crime, and your background check is clean, however, you are arrested and put in prison with no trial.

Sound impossible?

Well it is not. This happened to me.

I was driving in Colorado Springs, CO just as I described. I have not committed any crime. In December the previous year a full criminal background check was done, and it indicated I have no criminal record. Just like you, I wanted to know what was I going to prison for.

The police officer driver told me I am being arrested. Never read me my rights. He would not tell me what crime I am accused of. After looking for a traffic violation, he stated "I can't find a violation to put down." Then he finally said "This one looks good." Sounds corrupt? It is. He could not find a litigate traffic violation to justify him wanting to pull me over. So he made one up. They ransacked my car, taking my wallet and the money that was in it. Had my car towed, and took me to prison. All refusing me critical information. However, they did tell me my brother was informed three years ago, in 2011.

A little background information is needed here. In 2011 I was living and working in Phoenix, AZ. I was not in Colorado nor was I a resident of Colorado. Prior to Phoenix, I lived in Chicago, IL. The only Colorado connection here is the fact I graduated high school in Colorado. Then there is some family who live there, and in several other states.

At the prison, I was refused a lawyer. They said if I pay them $1000, they will let me go. I refused. No one would tell me any information about what crime they accuse me of, and my background check showed that I am an innocent man.

An innocent man in prison!

I was eventually granted a court date. At some point I was released because my mom paid them, however, they kept my money they took from my wallet. I demanded my money be returned, but they refused. They told me they "do not return money." I took this time to get a public defender and build my defense.

They refused me a public defender demanding I pay them for one.

After several days I was able to find my brother who told me he does not know what the police are talking about. He told me in 2011 a woman would come by the house asking for me. He informed her that I do not live there and has no contact with me. I was able to get a signed sworn statement from him testifying to this fact.

I got some consultations from different lawyers. They told me that in Colorado their law says all they need to do is have papers served on someone who knows you. according to my brother, they never gave him any papers. So even their requirement was not fulfilled.

There is nothing in Colorado law stating you need to live in Colorado. Nothing about having a defendant being personally notified of any case filed against them. All they need is to find someone who claims to know you. It does not matter if the someone they find has any contact with you, nor does it matter you live in another state.

The El Paso County courthouse told me I need to pay them $725 so I can defend myself and clear my name. (My mane is already clear as evident by the background check). Additionally, they told me if I wanted to know anything about my case I would have to pay them. I had no intentions of paying them. They should provide me with the information. They refused to tell me what it would cost, and of course I refused to pay them anything. Therefore the El Paso County courthouse refused my right to information. This violated my right to face my accusers and have a fair trial. You can find plenty of Constitutional violations going on.

During this time I fought to get my car back. They wanted me to pay them to get my car.

I know I did not commit any traffic violation, even the police officer admitted he could not find a traffic violation to put on the traffic ticket and had to make up a traffic violation. I went to traffic court and fought the ticket. After two months the City of Colorado Springs, CO traffic court decided "using a right turn lane is not optional. It is reckless driving and you are fined $190 for using the turn lane." There was no way to get out of this. The city of Colorado Springs, CO need money more than they care for justice.

Some background information here. When I graduated high school in Colorado Springs, business was booming. When I was driving there in 2014, I noticed miles and miles of commercial property vacant. Colorado Springs, CO had become a dead city. However, just outside the city, business is booming. As it turns out, the previous decade, the city government began telling businesses to leave town. That was when the business boom in the county began. By 2007, Colorado Springs, CO had become known as city unable to pay its electric bill. This was because the city began shutting down streetlights. Anyone in business knows sales tax from businesses is the majority of revenue for any government. Therefore the city of Colorado Springs, CO forcing businesses out of town resulted in a significant loss of revenue, leading to the city having to find ways to save money. Now they just make up traffic violations just to gain more money. I don't know how this dumb move by the city effects the county's financial position, but consider what followed.


Concerning the other case, I went to the El Paso County courthouse to defend myself only armed with the statement from my brother. I arrived there on time, however, the courtroom did not open its doors on time. Finally after about ten minutes the doors were opened. I went in and took a seat. I waited for the judge to show up. Only one court employee was there. She apparently had all the case information on the computer. After another thirty minutes she came over, handed me a piece of paper, and said I was free to go. I asked her what crime I am accused of. Her response (keep in mind she has the entire case information): "I don't know."

So this entire fiasco was just to have me sit in their courthouse for thirty minutes and be told I am free to go. And this is all because the El Paso County courthouse does not know why.

Something shady is going on in Colorado.

I think it was more than that. The only theme consistent was their demand for me to pay them absurd amounts of money for nothing. So therefore, since the county did get some money, they decided to let me go. This explains why they don't know what crime I was put in prison for.

It is clear Colorado does not care about justice, and has enacted this absurd law in order to acquire more money. They denied me my Constitutional rights. I was not given a trial. I was denied the right to face my accusers. I was denied legal representation. I was not presumed innocent.

I strongly recommend you avoid EVER going to, and living in Colorado!

A Time to Speak (single DVD)

A Time to Speak (single DVD)

When you know something true, the counterfeits are easily exposed. I have been studying this one religion. I don't like to call it religion, however, religion is the only word to use. The religion I am talking about is Islam.

If you don't know this religion or know something about it, you may be surprised to find out they are against the one and only God. The God who is sovereign, the one who created Heaven and Earth, and all the universe.

How can I say that you may wonder. Well I will explain.

When it comes tot he Quran, it is only to be read in the original language, Arabic; regardless is you know the language or not. Making this religion one of hearsay. Allah does not want Muslims to read the Quran because, the Quran is lies with just enough truth to deceive the world. If someone were to read the Quran and the truth parts get a hold of their heart, they may leave Islam. Allah doe snot want anyone to leave.

Most Muslims in the world reside in Asia. Where they do not speak Arabic. The countries where Arabic is spoken are in the Middle East.

You may wonder why there is so much violence in this part of the world. It is because they know the Quran and are living out what is written in it. Review the link below to understand more.

Some questions to consider: Don't they believe in Jesus? Who is Allan?

The Quran was written centuries after Jesus. Historians cite many first hand accounts of Jesus in addition to the Bible. We know who Jesus is by the account in the Bible, but even more so by the testimony of God.

Matthew 3:17 And a voice from heaven said, "This is my Son, whom I love; with him I am well pleased."
Mark 1:11 And a voice came from heaven: "You are my Son, whom I love; with you I am well pleased."

Luke 3:22 and the Holy Spirit descended on him in bodily form like a dove. And a voice came from heaven: "You are my Son, whom I love; with you I am well pleased."

Matthew 17:5 While he was still speaking, a bright cloud covered them, and a voice from the cloud said, "This is my Son, whom I love; with him I am well pleased. Listen to him!"

2 Peter 1:17 He received honor and glory from God the Father when the voice came to him from the Majestic Glory, saying, "This is my Son, whom I love; with him I am well pleased."

And remember there was thousands of people who also witnessed God's statement about Jesus at his baptism.

Muslims deny Jesus' divinity as the son of God. The Quran reduces Jesus to a sinful man just like you and I. By denying who Jesus is, you also deny God. God does not lie, and for those who don't believe God's testimony about Jesus are calling God a liar. Therefore such people reject God and Heaven.

Muhammad lived in Mecca and knew many Christians and Jews. He insisted that he be included into the bible as a profit from God. When he was rejected, Muhammad set out to destroy the religion of God. He started by setting up his own religion without any gods.  He eventually discovered he needed a god to present to people in order to have followers. He chose Allah out of a pantheon of 360 Arabic gods. So even the patriarch of Islam does not believe Allah is God.

So then where did he get all these Muslim ideas (which eventually became the Quran)? He did not get them from God. Just look at what God teaches in the old testament, and through His son Jesus. the Quran is in direct contradiction to God's teachings.

Muhammad did receive instruction, just not from God. The characteristics of Islam. It does teach not to kill, but it teaches more on killing. Mixing truth with lies. Anyone who is great at lying knows using just enough truth mixed with lies is a sure way of fooling people. Look at John 8:44.

Islam seeks to replace God and set up Allah as god. It also seeks to replace all religions, most especially Christianity and Judaism (the religions set up by the One true God).

Well who do we know that wants to exhale himself and be higher than God? Look at Isaiah 14:12-14:

“How you have fallen from heaven,
         O Lucifer, star of the morning, son of the dawn!
         You have been cut down to the earth,
         You who have weakened the nations! 

“But you said in your heart,
         ‘I will ascend to heaven;
         I will raise my throne above the stars of God,
         And I will sit on the mount of assembly
         In the recesses of the north. 

‘I will ascend above the heights of the clouds;
         I will make myself like the Most High.’

Ezekiel 28:14-18:

14“You were the anointed cherub who covers,
         And I placed you there.
         You were on the holy mountain of God;
         You walked in the midst of the stones of fire. 

15“You were blameless in your ways
         From the day you were created
         Until unrighteousness was found in you. 

16“By the abundance of your trade
         You were internally filled with violence,
         And you sinned;
         Therefore I have cast you as profane
         From the mountain of God.
         And I have destroyed you, O covering cherub,
         From the midst of the stones of fire. 

17“Your heart was lifted up because of your beauty;
         You corrupted your wisdom by reason of your splendor.
         I cast you to the ground;
         I put you before kings,
         That they may see you. 

18“By the multitude of your iniquities,
         In the unrighteousness of your trade
         You profaned your sanctuaries.
         Therefore I have brought fire from the midst of you;
         It has consumed you,
         And I have turned you to ashes on the earth
         In the eyes of all who see you.

2 Corinthians 4:4 refers to Satan as the god of this age.

Reading through the Bible, you will find many names for Satan, and learn of his character. He a deceiver, destroyer, and murderer These describes Islam accurately. Revelation 2:9, 3:9 state Satan has his own church. Galatians 1:8 Satan has his own gospel, that gospel is the Quran. Satan seeks to counterfeit everything about God. Revelation 12:9 identifies Satan as the one "who deceives the whole world." This is why Muslims do not know God, think Jesus was a sinful man, and Allah is the only god.

As I have stated, and many others know, if you know the truth the counterfeits will be exposed.

Islam is Satan's religion.

I was listing to a sermon just now. I have heard him before. I have to say not much has changed. This preacher was reading verse by verse. Nothing wrong with that. However, often he would comment on a verse and say "I don't know." One time he said someone else may know better.

If you don't know something and you are in a position of teaching, ministers and preachers are in such a position, you need to step aside and let someone who knows the subject teach. Then you need to learn and study in order to be able to teach what it is you need to teach.

This preacher, saying I don't know, has made me want to go somewhere else. As for the subject he was teaching, I do know better. And some of the stuff this preacher was saying is wrong. I wonder how God will judge him for preaching incorrectly.

Know your subject before you teach. Ask God for guidance and if you should truly be a minister of God's word.

The more I study God's word, and evaluate the events going on in the world, the more I can see how things are coming together.

Today I was studying the Antichrist. The first thing you should know is that the Antichrist will not be revealed until after the rapture of Christians. So if you know who the Antichrist is, then you have been left behind.

The time the Antichrist comes to power is during a time of great chaos. He will make a treaty with the Muslims and Israel. The beginning of his rule will be a time of peace. In order for the Antichrist to come to power, Christians have to be taken from this world and the the world has to be in great chaos.

This sounds like another believed persona, the Mahdi. According to Muslim beliefs, the Mahdi will come to rule the world in a time of world chaos to bring peace and deal with Israel. The reason Christians are being persecuted so fervently is because it works to Muslim advantage. by hastening the return of the Mahdi.

Part of Muslim belief is to kill everyone who does not convert to Islam. The Antichrist will persecute and destroy Christians and Jews. Part of the Antichrist's plans is to convert the world to his worship and kill everyone who refuses to convert.

The more I study about the Antichrist, the more it correlates with Muslim beliefs and what they are doing today.

Is it Biblical? That is what we need to ask ourselves these days. At work there was a commercial being played on a repeated loop with other commercials. In this one commercial showed an active x-ray screen with two skeletons making out. Then the two skeletons walk out to the side revealing two women. (Promoting homosexuality.) Next it shows two more skeletons dancing then they too walk out revealing a Hispanic man and black woman. (Promoting race mixing.) Then two more skeletons playing before walking out revealing two children. (Promoting friendship.)

The commercial also has a crowd of people watching this and cheering after the reveal. The lack woman narrates talking about how everyone is the same and something about love.

If you look at this from a Biblical perspective you will know this commercial is bad.

In Leviticus 20:13 "'If a man has sexual relations with a man as one does with a woman, both of them have done what is detestable. They are to be put to death; their blood will be on their own heads."'

Homosexuality is an offense to God and against the natural order.

In Deuteronomy 7:3 You must not intermarry with them. Do not let your daughters and sons marry their sons and daughters.

God made the different races and separated them by placing them in the far corners of the Earth. Clearly it is not God's intention for different races to intermarry with each other.

However, the last part of the commercial shows friendship. Throughout the bible you will find many different aspects of people interacting with each other and forming friendships. Friendship is acceptable.

We Christians are being persecuted in almost every country. Even in America, Christians are being persecuted.

Stand up for God ordained values.

God’s design

When God created Adam and Eve, He created them as one man and one woman. The Bible states God created them both male and female. Genesis 2:24: Therefore a man shall leave his father and mother and be joined to his wife, and they shall become one flesh. This verse is clear about marriage. God says the man will be joined to his wife; singular, only one wife not wives, and in so doing sets the standard of marriage being only ONE MAN and ONE WOMAN.

There are no other definitions in the Bible for marriage; this is it, one man and one woman. I have always believed this. The best definition of marriage is: Marriage is where one man and one woman of the same people come together under God’s grace in total love and commitment towards each other to bring about and raise the next generation, establishing social order and the societal structure.

This definition conveys marriage as being a permanent union between one man and one woman of the same people, to provide for the procreation and raising of children, serving as principle building block of society. As a lifelong union marriage positively channels sexual and emotional energy. Marriage also serves as a picture of His relationship with His people here on Earth; Christ’s relationship with the church.

This lifelong commitment can be found in Matthew 19:8-9: “Moses, because of the hardness of your hearts, permitted you to divorce your wives, but from the beginning it was not so. And I say to you, whoever divorces his wife, except for sexual immorality, and marries another, commits adultery: and whoever marries her who is divorced commits adultery.”

Additionally we find the one man and one woman design for marriage in Mark 10:11-12: So He said to them, “Whoever divorces his wife and marries another commits adultery against her. And if a woman divorces her husband and marries another, she commits adultery.”

Adultery is when two people have sexual relations and one or both are married but not to each other. In these two verses, God is clearly stating the original marriage is still in effect; it never ended, marriage is for life. These two verses further illustrate God does not approve of married men and women to ‘marry’ additional spouses. These verses do support the ONE MAN and ONE WOMAN definition of marriage set forth in the Old Testament.

Another verse we read in 1 Corinthians 7:2-4: Nevertheless, because of sexual immorality, let each man have his own wife, and let each woman have her own husband. Let the husband render to his wife the affection due her, and likewise also the wife to her husband. This verse shows, in addition to the one man and one woman design of marriage, how the husband and wife are to treat each other to produce spiritual unity.

God gives us guidelines on where to look for a spouse.

Leviticus 21:14: “A widow or a divorced woman or a defiled woman or a harlot—these he shall not marry; but he shall take a virgin of his own people as wife.”

1 Kings 11:2: …the Lord had said… “You shall not intermarry with them, nor they with you.”

God never intended there to be marriages between the different people groups. Looking at the key words of this verse ‘a virgin of his (or her) own people’ we see God intends for the man and woman getting married are to remain virgins unto marriage. And with the aforementioned verses, the husband and wife are to stay committed to each other.

Additionally as parents, we are told not to allow our children to marry outside our own people. Deuteronomy 7:3: “You shall not intermarry with them, giving your daughters to their sons or taking their daughters for your sons.”

It is clear God never intended for different people to intermarry. God gave us these commandments in order for us to remain pure. These Old Testament verses are very relevant today. We need to apply these commandments to ourselves regardless of heritage. With countries becoming more and more diverse with different people groups, God’s commandments are even more important today.

Other important verses regarding who to marry can be found in 2 Corinthians 6:14-15: Do not be unequally yoked together with unbelievers. For what fellowship has righteousness with lawlessness? And what communion has light with darkness? And what accord has Christ with Belial? Or what part has a believer with an unbeliever? These verses refer to having the same faith when you get married. Believers in these verses refer to Christians, and unbelievers refer to all other beliefs. This also means not  be doing dating and marriage evangelism which does not work. Many people have tried evangelism by dating and marriage, and have found it does not work. Dating and marriage evangelism is where a Christian dates or marries a non-Christian expecting them to convert to Christianity.

As husband and wife, God commanded “to be fruitful and multiply.” (Genesis 1:28). As parents we are to raise our children. We are to teach them, preparing them to enter the world on their own. Proverbs 22:6: Direct your children onto the right path, and when they are older, they will not leave it. NLT

Children being raised by both parents together are learning how to relate to each other. Their parents show them every day, both in the home and in public, with every person they encounter how to be social. When parents teach their children, their children are eager to learn. Children put into practice what they learn at the playground, at school, when in public, and as they get older, children will refine their interpersonal skills with friends and work. These interpersonal skills are first formed in the home. Without the parents, children will have no identity.

Dating is best defined as a man and woman getting to know each other as they evaluate each other for consideration for marriage.
