PARALLELS

95 Comments
Isn’t it interesting how America’s behavior has paralleled the behavior of the Children of Israel in the day of their first King, King Saul? America has become America since we arrived to our promised land on the Mayflower. God in His Providence has given us this land, and has defeated enemy after enemy for us. The Revolutionary War with Great Britain, The War of 1812 with Great Britain, the Great War between the States and numerous other conflicts to include WWII are only a few examples.  In spite of great odds against us, in spite of the fact that we didn’t deserve to survive much less to succeed in the way that we have, we are still to this day a great nation. Our future could still be very bright.   Or, we as a nation may be beginning to falter and the outlook could be very grim. When America has been on the brink of disaster we have always fallen on our knees and begged Almighty God for his mercy and for Him to save us. And He has, time after time. We don’t have gods with names like the Baals, or Ashtaroth, but we have developed other gods and have served them faithfully. We have served the god of wealth, the god of pride, the god of convenience, the god of self, and we have turned our backs on the only true God. Read Chapter 12 in the book of 1 Samuel. Below are a few pertinent verses that I have transcribed. “And they cried out to the Lord and said, ‘We have sinned, because we have forsaken the Lord and have served the Baals and the Ashtaroth. But now deliver us out of the hand of our enemies, that we may serve You.’” 1 Samuel 12: 10 “And now behold the king whom you have chosen, for whom you have asked; behold, the Lord has set a king over you. If you will fear the Lord and serve him and obey his voice and not rebel against the commandment of the Lord, and if both you and the king who reigns over you will follow the Lord your God, it will be well. But if you will not obey the voice of the Lord, but rebel against the commandment of the Lord, then the hand of the Lord will be against you and your king.” 1 Samuel 12: 13-15 This is just a thought from an old retired man who has little to do but read God’s word and watch the world around him. We as a once great nation have but to choose who we will serve, honor and obey. We live in exciting and frightening times! ~Adverse Yaw

  1. I came to your “PARALLELS | THE VIEWSLETTER” page and noticed you could have a lot more traffic.

    me. I am looking ahead to your subsequent submit, I’ll try to get the hold of it!

    1. I know it seems complicated, but if you know Jesus Christ as your personal friend and savior, it is quite simple. It is a spiritual battle between good and evil. Good is humble and evil is arrogant. There is much to consider during the short time we spend here on planet earth.

  3. Someone necessarily assist to make seriously articles

    far? I surprised with the analysis you made to create
    this actual submit extraordinary. Fantastic process!

    their motive, and that is also happening with this article which I am reading now.

    to be great. I do not understand who you are but certainly
    you’re going to a famous blogger if you are not already. Cheers!

  13. First of all I would like to say fantastic blog!
    I had a quick question in which I’d like to ask if you do not mind. I was interested to know how you center yourself and clear your head before writing. I’ve had a hard time clearing my thoughts in getting my ideas out.
    I truly do take pleasure in writing but it just seems like the first 10 to 15 minutes are generally wasted just trying
    to figure out how to begin. Any ideas or tips?
    Many thanks!

    1. Write, write and write. Let your fingers start and follow them with your thoughts.

      When I was a young aviator trying to get into the flying for a living business I ask an airline pilot’s advise. He told me to fly, fly, and fly. Before you know it you will have a job. and I did I flew for 40 years. It was my only occupation and it was a joy. Now I too am trying to learn the skill of writing.

      Best of luck to you, and stay in touch.

  14. Hi there fantastic website! Does running a blog such as this require a lot of work?
    I’ve virtually no understanding of coding but I had been hoping to start my own blog soon. Anyhow, if you have any suggestions or tips for new blog owners please share. I know this is off topic however I simply needed to ask. Many thanks!

    1. I am a novice at this business my self. If you want to get started call up the guys at Blue Host and they will point you in the right direction.
      Best of luck, and stay in touch.

    1. That is great that you want more details. I can thank of only one place to find them and that is the Holy Scripture. When you compare the writings in the Bible with the news of today you will find that there is nothing new under the sun, and all that is being done has already been done before.

      You are one of a few who are interested in answers. A few will learn, however most will not. Most don’t care.

      Good luck to you and I hope that you will stay in touch.

    And I do have a few questions for you if you do
    not mind. Could it be only me or does it look like some of the remarks
    look like they are left by brain dead visitors?
    😛 And, if you are posting on additional places, I’d like to follow everything new you have to post. Could you list of all of all your social pages like your linkedin profile, Facebook page or twitter feed?

    1. You may find me on Lnkedin and facebook as Waynedoudney and another page on facebook as askwaynedoudney the same name on twitter. I couldn’t comment on the left brain or dead brain question, as I’m not sure what all that means. Thanks for reading my Blog. Good luck and stay in touch.

    2. I’m not sure what you mean some of the remarks? Remarks from readers, or remarks on the blog itself?

  20. My coder is trying to convince me to move to .
    net from PHP. I have always disliked the idea because of the expenses.
    But he’s tryiong none the less. I’ve been
    using Movable-type on several websites for about a
    year and am concerned about switching to another platform.
    I have heard very good things about blogengine.
    net. Is there a way I can transfer all my wordpress content into it?

    mind. Is it just me or do a few of these comments appear as if they
    are written by brain dead visitors? 😛 And, if you are writing at additional
