Holy Trinity Youth and Adults Volunteer in Central Appalachia
Love in Action
Appalachia Service Project is a Christian ministry that inspires hope and service through volunteer home repair in Central Appalachia. Each year, they choose a different Bible verse to serve as their motto. This year it is 1 John 3:18 – Dear children, let us not love with words or speech but with actions and in truth. The 2017 motto is "Love in Action."
Holy Trinity partnered with Highland Presbyterian to form 6 teams (2 adults, 5 youth plus a floater) for a total of 43 volunteers to work June 11-17, 2017 in Johnson County TN. Our weekdays consisted of awakening to blaring loud music at 7:30 am, meeting outside for morning devotions at 7:45 and then having breakfast at 8 am. Chores were distributed among the teams, some had breakfast dishes or clean-up to do, others got to clean the bathrooms! We made our lunches, collected our materials for the day and traveled to our work site. We began our work day with prayer with our families, then began our tasks, took frequent water breaks, had lunch and left between 3:30 and 5 pm. Dinner was at 6:30, followed by chores, and Evening Gathering. This was followed by free time, and lights out at 11 pm.
The Bluth's Frozen Bananas crew (Keith St. Peter, myself and 5 youth) was assigned to work on a house that needed a new kitchen and bathroom floor, a room built for the granddaughter, a chimney removed and a new roof. We had high hopes to accomplish a couple of these tasks, but actually only completed the kitchen floor – We removed the old floor and found a layer of wood slats under the linoleum, then wood that went diagonally one way, then wood that went diagonally the other way. We also found that only one joist was holding up the wall. So, we had a few unexpected repairs to complete. Pictured at right, kitchen during renovations and below, afterwards.
Other Holy Trinity youth and Champ St. Amand were on different teams doing other projects which ranged from digging a ditch to drain water away from a house, replacing a deck, and adding a wheelchair ramp.
Although one of our tasks was to work on the homes, a larger part of the experience was to establish relationships, to grow spiritually, and to learn new things about ourselves and others. We had discussions with the youth each day and at the end of the week, and we spent time sitting on the new floor summarizing our adventure. We talked about first impressions (ours of our family, and what they thought about us), how fortunate we are, and about how grateful and happy our family is despite their circumstances!
Despite the sadness of things that our family shared with us, it was a wonderful experience. Wayne Birch, one of the adult leaders, summed it up well….
"ASP does not build character, it reveals character!"
We would like to thank Holy Trinity for their support of this mission trip. We thank all who purchased stock, bought lemon pies, made survival kits and prayed for us! Judy Philbrook

REQUESTING MAYFAIR FUNDS FOR OUTREACH: On May 7, 2017, and the weeks leading up to that day, faithful people gathered to prepare for Holy Trinity's annual Mayfair. For those who may be newer to our community, or for those who may not know, Mayfair is a HUGE event. Mayfair is a yard sale organized by Holy Trinity parishioners, made possible by donations from parishioners and others in our community and the tireless work of those who sort, price, organize, clean, pick up, and donate goods. EVERY PENNY raised through Mayfair is granted to established Outreach programs within Holy Trinity and in the greater Fayetteville Community. These funds are entrusted to individuals and groups who have experience, knowledge, and skills to help those in need in our community. And most of the organizations/ministries who have requested funds in the past have active participants who are also Holy Trinity parishioners. Please consider helping any way you can with Mayfair 2018.
Due to website changes, please follow these steps if you wish to submit a request for Mayfair funds for your organization. From our website, holytrinityfay.org, choose the Outreach Tab. From the drop-down menu, choose "Make A request". Then select "Receive Funds for My Organization". Grant requests for Mayfair funds are due by August 1st.
How to Use the Website to Make a Request
In case you didn't already know, the church's website has changed so now, it's easier than ever to make a request to the church administration and vestry. Click on the 'Contact Us" button at the top of the page to:
* Make a prayer request
* Use church equipment
* Use church facilities
* Receive a church grant
Once you click on the "Contact Us" you'll see a menu selection for the above items. You can click on the selection, which will take you to the proper forms to submit your request. We hope this new website change will be useful for church committees and groups, as well as outside organizations. If you have questions or comments, feel free to contact George Harrison, Vestry Communications Chair, at email@example.com.
A bit of Holy Trinity History: On April 8, 2017, several Holy Trinity parishioners and members of the Fayetteville Camelia Club trimmed, pruned and cleaned up Holy Trinity's Camellia Garden. Jack Dewar, the club's secretary, explains how our Camellia Garden came to exist. In 1959 the Fayetteville Camellia Club, led by Dr. W.T. Rainey, in cooperation with Holy Trinity, completed a 1957 plan by Dr. Rainey to plant a "Camellia Garden, open to the public and constructed on the grounds of the Holy Trinity Episcopal Church. In it were the finest varieties of camellias, an underground sprinkler system, a fountain, and plenty of pine shade." In 1961 the garden was named the Rainey Memorial Camellia Garden, to honor the founder and first President of the Fayetteville Camellia Club, founded in 1955. Coincidentally, in 1957 the City of Fayetteville designated Fayetteville as the Camellia Capital of North Carolina.

Reports and Updates

The vestry met Thursday, June 15. The meeting opened with prayer led by Mike Morketter and was called to order by the Rector. Reports were received from the Rector, Junior Warden and Vestry Liaisons. The Treasurer reported that the parish remains within budget, but there is a need to remind Parishioners that pledge commitments need to be made in a timely manner, especially with summer months upon us. Arrangements are being made to allow and encourage Parishioners to pay pledges electronically.
George Harrison will be working with our website to make the application process for funding and the facility use more visible and accessible. The Rector reported that he will be in Chicago the week of June 19-23 for a class towards his degree. There will be a Deanery event on October 15 at St. John's for Trinity Center. Both Bishop Skirving and Penn Perry are planning to attend. There may also be a Deanery event for the African Shoe Ministry to be held at Trinity Church, Lumberton on or about July 22. There will be a special Rally Sunday preparation meeting for all ministry leaders on Saturday, August 26 at 9:00 a.m.

The Margaret Willis/Adopt A Family committee of Holy Trinity applied for a grant from the Diocese of East Carolina. The purpose of the grant was to help satisfy unmet needs of Margaret Willis families displaced by Hurricane Matthew. The committee asked for and was granted $7,500.00. Our plan was for Megan Hatem, social worker at Margaret Willis, to identify 15 families who were displaced by the hurricane and flooding and needed help replacing household items lost in the storm as they are able to move back into permanent housing. We planned to spend approximately $500 per family. To date, 11 families have been identified and members of the committee and/or Megan Hatem have shopped with them for needed items. There are two more families that we may shop with and any funds left over after that will be used to offer additional help to some of the 11 families that might need more assistance. We will report to the committee of the Diocese on the results of our grant spending. Bette Scott
News from the Food Pantry
In the month of May we served 25 new households at the Holy Trinity Food Pantry, a total of 61 new individuals. The total number of households served was 131, a total of 210 people served. About 40% of the individuals are senior adults that are finding it hard to make ends meet.
The Food Pantry is looking for additional packers to make up the food bags. If you have one weekday morning you can volunteer it would be a great help. If packing bags isn't your "thing", you could shop or help distribute food. We also need a person (s) to double the plastic bags we put the food items in. This is an activity you can do at home in front of the TV with a drink.
Reminder: The first Sunday of every month is In-gathering Sunday. Thank you in advance for your donated food items. We can always use those little hotel freebies. Food bag packers, please remember that we have a short summer vacation thanks to John and Matthew Whiteman.
Any information or questions about the Food Pantry can be shared with Sharon Robertson at 483-1372, Pat Stang at 425-6132, or with Janice Luce, Parish Administrator. Thank you, Pat Stang, Toy Brown, Karen Robertson and Sharon Robertson
July Greetings from the Preschool!

Wonderful Wednesday, May Gathering
If you were not at the Wonderful Wednesday on May 17th, you missed a very interesting event! Three ladies from the Fayetteville Crime Prevention and Fraud Unit spoke to our group about how to prevent crime. They gave us an update on recent scams and how to protect ourselves and property. Hint: if you get a telephone call asking, "Can you hear me?" Do not answer, just hang up. The caller may be recording your "Yes" to confirm your agreement to order something. Also if someone comes to your door to let you know he has noticed something wrong outside your house, do not follow him outside without securing your house first as he may have a partner waiting to enter your home while you are inspecting the "problem". Hope to see you on July 12th. Sharon Robertson

Hamilton calls for worldwide removal of statues of slave owners
Reigning Formula One champion Lewis Hamilton has called on governments across the world to copy the example of the protesters who tore down a statue of slave trader Edward Colston in Bristol at the weekend.
The controversial Colston statue had stood since 1895 and his name is attached to numerous buildings in the British city. While he was known for his philanthropy across the town, Colston amassed a large percentage of his wealth through the selling of tens of thousands of slaves in the 1600s and early 1700s.
On Sunday, protesters pulled the statue from its base and dropped it in the city's river, the Avon.
Hamilton praised the demonstrators and said governments across the world should follow the example they had set.
Across three posts to his Instagram story, Hamilton wrote: "Slave trader Edward Colston statue pulled down!!! Our country honoured a man who sold African slaves!
"All statues of racist men who made money from selling a human being should be torn down! Which one is next?
"I challenge government officials worldwide to make these changes and implement the peaceful removal of these racist symbols.
"If those people hadn't taken down that statue, honouring a racist slave trade, it would never have been removed. There's talks of it going into a museum. That man's statue should stay in the river just like the 20 thousand African souls who died on the journey here and thrown into the sea, with no burial or memorial. He stole them from their families, country and he must not be celebrated! It should be replaced with a memorial for all those he sold, all those that lost their lives!"
Hamilton has been outspoken throughout the Black Lives Matter movement, which has risen to prominence since George Floyd died in police custody in Minneapolis. Hamilton called out the "white dominated" world of F1 for its silence on the matter, prompting a number of his fellow drivers to make public statements condemning racism.
Floyd, who was black, died last month after Derek Chauvin, a white police officer, kneeled on his neck for more than eight minutes. Chauvin, who was since been fired, was initially charged with third-degree murder and second-degree manslaughter. A charge of unintentional second-degree murder was also added last week.

text: Hmmmmm..... THE absolute BEST published time for a stock BMW 5spd 325i (and the number was suspect, cuz with the 189hp rating the numbers didn't add up) coupe is 6.7 seconds, average is 7.2.... Lots of cars on this net or the road could take that.... Especially if you look at the gearing of the bimmer, even the best of drivers would be hard pressed to beat some of the lowly audis..... The A4 with a 5spd is certainly right at the 7.0 mark, I've knocked off 7 second times with torque braking a v8, and coming out of a turn, which was the post, a v8 "on cam" can bury just about anything in second gear. 0-60 The S4 is 6.0, the 200tq 20v is 6.2.... All in stock trim..... The 5ktq's of stageII fame can bang 6.5 seconds all day long, and urq's are 7 second cars even stock....... I got a brother that can make the Miss Piggy (stealth vr4) dance with published numbers, but there are few that really do that...... If you look at real world or more of a "oh we're racing" title, lots of audis can make the 325 drivers turn red. M3 different story, M5 different story, but 325, tho competent and pretty quick is hampered by the drivetrain, and more often than not, the driver...... Not the case with your brother, or mine, but to make it just plain fly is not it's strength, it gets ugly pushed 10/10's in stock trim..... Me thinks that really is THE advantage to AWD...... And in the cases of the posts vs 325's a little knowlege of the true advantages can stack the deck against the 3 pretty easy.... To handle first gear on a 325coupe without the passenger giving you a head clip for **shole driving technique is just not easily done, BTDT Scott

I've been playing with Pushbullet now for a little under a week. This newcomer has really impressed me by adding utility and saving me footsteps. Here's a peek at what it does and how it's making my life simpler. It's good to remember Pushbullet is in beta, and as such new things may be added and things might not work 100%. That said, I've experienced no issues in my use.
Pushbullet is a combination of an Android app, a Chrome browser plugin and a service. It allows you to push files, URLs, pictures, notes and other things between your phone and browser. You can even push things to other users if you know their email. To get started, go to pushbullet.com and sign up for an account. Download the software on your phone and browser and you're ready to start pushing.
On Chrome, open the PB extension on a webpage or picture you would like to send to your phone or a friend. Select where you're pushing it to and click the Push it! button. On Android this is accomplished using the share menu. Select Push This from the menu, select who or where it's going and you're all set.
Notifications are handled in Android the same way as any other app. On chrome, you will receive a pop up letting you know you have a push. Click on your notification to view the content, or dismiss it and act later. Your pushes are viewable on the Pushbullet website for later use.
The coolest use for this service in my opinion is the ability to view any notifications your phone gives you on the desktop. Most of the time at home I'm not around my phone. Having little cards pop up with my phone notifications saves me running to my handset to see if something important is happening. This is also useful if you are on a call and receive notifications that you wouldn't see or hear during the conversation.
Notifications on the desktop are simply awesome for Google Voice users. Pushbullet will alert you to your new text messages via these pop up cards. Users can then use the Voice website to read and respond to the texts without running for the phone.
When this service comes out of beta, I'll be doing a full on review. Until then, I cannot wait to see what comes down the pipes. Hop over to their website and give Pushbullet a try.

5 Murrow Award categories to watch this year
January 7, 2019 11:00
The 2019 Murrow Awards competition underway with the 2019 Regional winner announcement set for April 23, and, if the 2018 awards are any measure, competition will be stiff, with news outlets across the country and the world submitting more and more engaging, innovative and impactful examples of journalism. Based on the particular high quality of entries and winners recently, these are five categories to watch this year, and some insights to make your entries stand out.
Excellence in Innovation
The Excellence in Innovation category is not limited to stations trying out the latest tech gadgets, and some of the standout winners aren't using any new devices, but rather approaching local news challenges from new angles and trying new approaches. Take WFAA's Verify project – the station's take on a TEGNA fact-checking initiative, which brings audiences into the reporting process to help demonstrate and grow trust.
Excellence in Video
More stations than ever are innovating in the video category, with several winners submitting immersive 360 videos last year. Trying and excelling at 360 video takes rethinking your photography approach when covering a story, but relies on the same storytelling techniques and standards as standard video pieces. Ultimately, every story has potential to be a winner, with the right mix of planning, luck, fun and creativity making a piece unique and extraordinary.
Excellence in Sound
Podcasts continue to explode as listeners build the intimate form of getting news and information into their daily routines, offering audio storytellers a wealth of opportunities to show off their craft. But creating engaging audio takes a special skillset and understanding of how audio is unique.
Excellence in Social Media
Social media is no longer new and most stations are now comfortable with using social platforms for newsgathering and sharing. Now, more are taking the next step and using social media to engage audiences on deeper levels to do community-based reporting and dig into potential solutions to social issues.
Audiences, technology, delivery platforms all change and evolve, giving stations opportunities to innovate and grow, but what doesn't change is the fundamentals of good storytelling. It seems all the more amazing that each year the bar for producing simple, conversational, emotionally engaging and fresh Murrow-winning writing remains so high. Masters show how they do it again and again here and here.

The Leafs had a points night as they welcomed the Florida Panthers to the Scotia Bank Center. While Tavares headlined the scoresheet, it was Ron Hainsey's toughness that stole the show.
"Toronto needs an enforcer"
"Who's going to stand up for the star players"
"This team needs to be more physical"
Hush yourselves, critics. Ron Hainsey is here and he's had enough of people taking runs at Leaf players. Yup, the senior-most defender on the team walloped Florida's Jayce Hawryluk, rag-dolling the high flying youngster after he took a run at Toronto's four-goal man.
If that doesn't get you amped up, I don't know what will. Immediately, Hainsey came flying in to punish Hawryluk for a vicious (missed) elbow he tried to nail Tavares with.
It's the kind of intensity you see from playoff hockey that gets all of up Leaf fans fired up and ready to go for the post season.
This team isn't built to crush their opposition with physicality, but Hainsey has reminded the opposition that there are still players in Toronto that will punish you for taking runs at their superstars.
Oh, and he doesn't care for your explanation…
Can we agree that resting Hainsey by giving him nights off is a bad idea now? Do we really think Marincin or Holl would come in there to set the tone in his absence? No and No. Move him down the lineup, manage his minutes, and make sure this leader remains with the team as we hurdle towards to playoffs.

"It's Not the Right Time": Three 6 Mafia Have Turned Down $500k Reunion Show Offers
The odds that OutKast delivers a brand new studio album anytime in the near future are slim to none, but Big Boi and André at least got together in 2014 for a reunion tour. As for Juicy J and DJ Paul of Three 6 Mafia? Don't hold your breath.
In a new interview with DJ Vlad, Paul revealed that the pair has turned down sizable offers for one-off reunion shows.
"We get offers every day to do it," Paul told Vlad. "Half a million. Just for me and Juicy."
Given the importance of being able to generate revenue through shows and merchandise in 2017, why would Juicy and Paul turn down such a lucrative offer?
"We want to do it when the time is right," Paul continued. "If we do it, we want to do it when the time is right."
In addition to time, Paul explained that the location of a potential show, as well as the venue, will play a critical role in the decision-making process.
Paul also confirmed to Vlad that, while he and Juicy J haven't worked together since 2010 (two years after their last studio album, Last 2 Walk), the two still speak on a regular basis.

BUDAPEST – Amid rising rates of Xenophobia in the European country, many Hungarians are participating in a walking tour of Muslim mosques and communities to overcome their fear of Muslims.
"I can say that this walk, 'Muslims who live among us', is the most popular tour," Anna Lenard, who runs the Budapest-based tour operator Setamuhely (Budapest Walkshop), told Reuters.
"Most people have never met a Muslim in their life and this … together with what they hear everyday in the media causes a lot of tension and stress in daily life. I think this is the main reason why people are coming now."
The tour operator runs 30 different walks, taking visitors around the city's architectural and cultural sites and the Jewish and Muslim communities.
About 80 people go on the Muslim tour per month, the organizers said.
The tour, typically consisting of around 30 people, includes a visit to a small mosque hidden in an old apartment where Muslims come to pray. They time their tour so that tourists arrive when local Muslims are praying.
"I am very interested in everything multi-cultural and in cultures and religions that live among us," said Nauszika, a psychologist who did not want to give her full name.
"It is the best way to lose your fears if you start to ask the one who you (are) afraid of," added tour leader Marianna Karman, an Africa expert who converted to Islam herself.
"These people choose to come on these walks because they would like to talk about this problem. They want to fight against their fears."
The popular tour includes a visit to Budapest's largest mosque, located in a former office building, as well as a few Muslim food shops.
The tour became necessary after reports from think-tank Terki showed that the proportion of people deemed to be xenophobic and resentful of foreign immigrants shot up to 60 percent this year, rising 19 points from two years ago.
Many analysts note that rising xenophobia rates coincide with the recent influx of migrants who crossed Hungary in their route to richer parts of western Europe.
Hungary is home to a Muslim community estimated at 40,000, according to the Hungarian Islamic Community (MIK).

Please check back at a later stage.
Come Wander is a periwinkle base and pink shimmer. It is a super linear holographic and the shimmer is a mutlichrome that shifts golden green, and it has iridescent colour changing flakes. The holo pops in the sun and hides the flakes, and the flakes come out to play in indirect or overcast lighting.

Behold: the best K-Pop music video of 2011.
We've covered Sunny Hill before, with Midnight Circus. That alone should've been enough to clue you into what sets this group apart: their embrace of the macabre, of vaguely Lovecraftian settings, a particular brand of dreamy horror that doesn't exactly shock, but instead, perpetuates a kind of lingering melancholy.
Pray, and its accompanying music video, is the best example I could give to back up those conclusions. The video is chock-full of symbolism and little details, tackling dark, mature themes that aren't easily seen in K-Pop. This is a video worth watching twice.
After Pray, Sunny Hill would go on to brighten their style a little bit, but would still imbue it with their trademark out-of-the-box themes. Just check out this video for 2012's The Grasshopper Song, vaguely inspired by Aesop's fable, and tell me it's like anything else you've watched and heard in this column so far:

Asked by Allabouteve
How Long Do Crestor Side Effects Last?
The first few days went well enough with just minor aches and pains. On the 7th day the right side of my tongue felt like needles were stuck in it. By the 9th day the right side of my tongue, mouth, lips and cheek had the same sensation, and when I touched my cheek the skin also felt similiar to the almost numb feeling of novacaine as it begins to wear off. I also began to feel very weak and fatigued. My joints ached and I had a constant headache that just continued to intensify. My doctor told me to discontinue the Creastor. So now what?
Hi Allabouteve,
The length of time it takes for the side effects of Crestor to disappear varies between individuals. I recommend you continue to contact your doctor if your symtpoms to do resolve themselves. You may need to work with your doctor to investigate further if your symptoms remain. Maybe Crestor is not the cause.
All the best,
Lisa Nelson RD

Every decision you make in your grow, from the lighting you choose to the medium you plan to grow in, will have a variable impact on your spending over time.
Cannabis Industrial Marketplace is your one stop shop for anything you may think you need or want. We provide you with Hydroponics Equipment, POS & Software, Packaging Supplies and more. Visit our website CannabisIMP.com
We've already addressed how to choose the ideal space for growing marijuana. Now I am going to explain what equipment is required to actually start growing cannabis at home! This is by no means an exhaustive list but rather the bare minimum. There are million other optional items you can incorporate but this article will address the nine basic items needed to grow premium weed indoors on a budget.
Tent or Liner
You'll need to make sure that the inside of the room or tent is as reflective as possible (to maximize your grow light's output). You'll also need to ensure that no outside light can penetrate into the room or tent (mandatory for seedless flowers). The easiest way to satisfy both of these requirements is with the use of grow tent or a room liner. Grow tents and liners are typically made of canvas, Mylar and/or black & white poly film. In addition, these films provide a truly separate environment that will help keep bugs and mold out of your grow area.
Grow Light
Since you are growing indoors, you'll have to select a grow light to replace the sun. There are several different types of grow lights and unfortunately, there is no 'best'. Choosing a grow light comes down to the dimensions of your space, your budget, your growing goals, and your power limitations. The good new is, lighting technology has improved over recent years and nearly all lights – HPS, CMH, LED, and DE will work. I've written a more in depth article on how to choose best grow light for you.
Extraction Fan
An extraction fan is essential for keeping temps down and supplying the plants with the fresh air (C02) they need to thrive. Note that you do not necessarily need an extraction fan if you are running a sealed room – but you will need an A/C and CO2 generator, which is a significantly more expensive alternative. I've written a more in depth article that explains why you might choose a sealed room over a vented room.
Carbon Filter
As the plants enter the flowering phase, they start to give off that pungent odor we all know and love – unless you're the neighbors. Carbon filters are the answer to that terpene-rich, skunky weed smell. You definitely don't want to get a cheap carbon filter – make sure you stick to reputable brands when it comes to this essential piece of equipment!
Although not glamorous, ducting is a crucial item in you garden's ventilation system. For smaller grows, I recommend flexible, insulated ducting – the insulation helps keep the heat (caused by the hot air) from radiating into your growing area. I recommend using 6 inch ducting at a minimum; larger grows will benefit from larger diameter ducting.
Circulating Fan
Circulating fans simulate nature's gentle summer breeze. The more the merrier here, just make sure they have adjustable speed settings – you'll noticed I said gentle breeze, not gusting tornado.
You'll need containers to grow the plants in. You can use plastic pots, fabric pots, buckets, totes, or planter beds. Just make sure you have a container(s) to grow your plants in. If you're growing in soil (which would be my suggestion), use the largest containers you can fit in your grow space – your plants will thank you for the added root space.
Grow Medium
As I mentioned above, I am huge proponent of living organic soil. You can read my full article on selecting a grow medium here. If you want the short version – nature got it right, you don't need fancy hydro equipment or synthetic nutrients to grow quality cannabis.
Filtered Water
The final piece to the puzzle is ensuring you have access to clean, filtered water. The sad fact is that most city water is less than ideal for growing cannabis – its full of contaminants, chlorine, chloramine, fluoride – the list goes on. You don't need an expensive filter, and if you cant afford one, you still have two other options – go to the grocery store and fill a 5 gallon jug with RO water for 25 cents per gallon, or get some air stones and bubble the water for a minimum of 24 hours

GoodWill IS Love in Action
FIRST IS THE GREAT COMMANDMENTS: "The first of all the commandments is, Hear, O Israel; The Lord our God is one Lord: And thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind, and with all thy strength: this is the first commandment. And the second is like, namely this, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself. There is none other commandment greater than these" (Mark 12:29-31).
WHAT THEN IS LOVE? In a general sense love is benevolence, good will; that disposition of heart which inclines men to think favorably of their fellow men, and to do them good. In a theological sense, it includes supreme love to God, and universal good will to men. While this IS from an older definition of Charity, which IS rendered in the King James Bible from the same Greek word agape which IS generally rendered as Love, we should amend our own definition here to include the idea that in the reality of Love a man will accord to ALL men ALL things that he would accord to himself and to say that Love IS our thoughts and attitude of the equality of ALL men regardless of their outward nature or appearance…that ALL ARE equally children of Our One God.
PLUS THE EVER IMPORTANT AND HIGH IDEAL TAUGHT TO US BY THE CHRIST: "Therefore all things whatsoever ye would that men should do to you, do ye even so to them" (Matthew 7:12).
After continuing our discussion on the idea of 'miracles' as Jesus presents this to us, we used the balance of our time in the last essay to review the ideas that we ARE presenting on the better use of the Greek words that ARE the Apostle Paul's list of "the fruit of the Spirit". While we centered our discussion on our view of the reality of makrothymia, we should understand that our emphasis was on the relationship between this and the other ideas in the list, and the Truth of agape which IS the first word of the list. In the understanding that "God is love" (1 John 4:8, 16) we should be able to see the primacy of agape of which Vincent tells us that: Love, in this passage, is that fruit of the Spirit which dominates all the others 4, in his commentary on Paul's list from Galatians saying "the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, Meekness, temperance" (Galatians 5:22, 23). The singular point that we ARE making IS that "the fruit of the Spirit" IS the flow of Truth from the Soul, the unction by which "ye know all things", into the heart of the man who will focus upon the things of God. This fruit IS NOT the doctrinal ideas into which one has been indoctrinated but rather the Truth of Paul's words and the amplifying and clarifying words of the Master who re-frames ALL in terms of agape. This flow of Truth and Love IS accomplished through that fruit that IS makrothymia , a word that IS little understood and IS rendered in terms of gentleness and kindness because of this lack of understanding. While we ARE NOT Greek scholars, we DO have the way of identifying the meanings of words as they ARE presented to us by Greek Scholars against our view that it IS Jesus' words of the New Testament that Truly matter. Here again we should see that makrothymia has a singular meaning based in the verb form of this word makrothymeō where we have the idea of to be long-spirited 9a, according to Strong's and to be of a long spirit 9 according to Thayer's. It IS these ideas that we use for our understanding of the deeper meaning of these words. Vincent helps us here as he examines the verb form which IS used by the Apostle James saying of makrothymeō that: From μακρός , long, and θυμός , soul or spirit, but with the sense of strong passion, stronger even than ὀργή , anger, as is maintained by Schmidt ("Synonymik"), who describes θυμός as a tumultuous welling up of the whole spirit; a mighty emotion which seizes and moves the whole inner man 4.
These comments ARE from James' saying "Be patient therefore, brethren, unto the coming of the Lord. Behold, the husbandman waiteth for the precious fruit of the earth, and hath long patience for it, until he receive the early and latter rain" (James 5:7), a verse that we have used in our blog to define the very nature of patience as an active mode where the husbandman DOES NOT idly wait but IS working his field to bring about the better harvest. The point here in these forms of makrothymeō then IS NOT waiting and patience as these ARE understood but rather an active work by the Soul which, if we can understand this as "the coming of the Lord", can perhaps show a glimpse of the way that the Soul must influence the heart and mind for the expression of "the fruit of the Spirit" in the Life of the man whose focus IS upon the things of God. We should remember here that the objective of ALL spiritual Truth IS that it should become the expression of a man and while doctrines interpret the ideas behind makrothymia according to their doctrinal leanings, the deeper reality can be seen through the right defining ideas for these words. Perhaps in a carnal view the ideas of patience and longsuffering can suffice but in the spiritual view these ARE wholly inadequate in showing the apostles' intent. We should try to see and to understand that the perspective of the writers IS spiritual; James implores his reader to leave off of ALL carnal thinking and allow the Light of the Soul to guide one's Life; Paul's idea IS similar as he contrasts "the fruit of the Spirit" with "the works of the flesh"; Paul shows us the nature of the man who can bring this fruit to bear in his expression to the world. The Christian idea that 'Jesus' comes to live in the 'believer' IS a similar idea but through the diluted ideas of men's doctrines this IS become both an ineffective and a questionable point. This IS ineffective because it IS NOT matched with the expression of "the fruit of the Spirit" which IS the expression of Jesus, of Christ and of God. In this we should be able to see the state of ALL men; ALL have reality of "Christ in you, the hope of glory", everyman has that "unction from the Holy One" by which "ye know all things"; this however goes unrealized by the man whose focus IS yet on the self and the things of the self in this world. Doctrines may point to the way that these things ARE phrased by the Master and His apostles to claim that they have these in their lives ONLY as 'believers' but this point IS moot in the lives of men whose expression IS NOT that of the Lord. We should remember here that we ARE speaking of a mystery, what Paul calls "Even the mystery which hath been hid from ages and from generations, but now is made manifest to his saints" (Colossians 1:26, 27) and understand that the idea of the saint carries the force of keeping His words over the diluted and nebulous ideas of doctrines.
The Greek word hagios IS defined by Strong's as: from ἅγος hágos (an awful thing) (compare G53, G2282); sacred (physically, pure, morally blameless or religious, ceremonially, consecrated):—(most) holy (one, thing), saint 9a. In the common understanding of much of the Protestant portion of the church this word has lost ALL of its meaning except for the final Strong's word, saint. On the other hand, much of the Catholic and Orthodox parts of the church DO see the saint as a person of special renown according to the doctrinal tenets of the particular denomination; these assign sainthood to such special persons who ARE considered as being in accord with the above definition but this IS always DONE posthumously. The True idea of the saint as pictured in Paul's words to the Colossians IS NOT a picture of the dead but of those alive who ARE in accord with the defining ideas. While the Protestants see the idea of being alive in sainthood, they miss the deeper ideas of sacred and holy. The Apostle Peter tells us "as he which hath called you is holy, so be ye holy in all manner of conversation; Because it is written, Be ye holy; for I am holy" (1 Peter 1:15-16) and it IS in this 'God-like' attitude that the True saint should be seen. The idea of the saint should NOT be applied to the average Joe who follows some doctrinal approach to the Lord. The Orthodox and the Catholic seemingly attempt to qualify the saint according to the ideas of holy and sacred but use the idea as a badge, an award if you will, that IS offered posthumously according to some pre-established doctrinal ideas which may NOT always be in accord with the Way of the Lord. For us the reality of sainthood IS NOT an award, NOR IS it to be used in the diluted way that it IS used by some doctrinal teachings, the idea of sainthood IS a Truly personal one which one DOES NOT claim; the idea of sainthood IS one that must be expressed "in all manner of conversation" which idea encompasses ALL behaviors….ALL manner of Life. This expression of the saint IS one's expression of the fullness of "the fruit of the Spirit" and this IS Paul's point: that the mystery of "Christ in you, the hope of glory" IS revealed to the saint in the "the wisdom that is from above"; and this according to the ideas of our trifecta which we repeat here saying:
- "If ye continue in my word, then are ye my disciples indeed; And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free" (John 8:31-32).
- "Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven" (Matthew 7:21).
- "He that hath my commandments, and keepeth them, he it is that loveth me: and he that loveth me shall be loved of my Father, and I will love him, and will manifest myself to him. Judas saith unto him, not Iscariot, Lord, how is it that thou wilt manifest thyself unto us, and not unto the world? Jesus answered and said unto him, If a man love me, he will keep my words: and my Father will love him, and we will come unto him, and make our abode with him. He that loveth me not keepeth not my sayings: and the word which ye hear is not mine, but the Father's which sent me" (John 14:21-24).
It IS in these words that we find the revelation and the realization of the mystery, NOT in carnal and doctrinal terms but in the flow of Wisdom into the Life of the man who will "continue in my word". It IS this man who can have such realization of the mystery that IS "Christ in you, the hope of glory" and this because it IS in the flow of Truth that a man in this world can come to see the reality of the Way that Jesus describes for us saying "we will come unto him, and make our abode with him". Can we see this? And can we understand that the presentation of these ideas keeps secret "the mystery which hath been hid from ages and from generations" from those who will NOT DO the necessary work which James presents to us saying "be ye doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving your own selves" (James 1:22). We should try to see that the whole of this idea of revelation and realization IS a rather automatic thing, a process if you will; as one strives to seek the Truth he IS exposed to that Truth and this can happen for the religious and the irreligious although along different lines. We DO NOT use the idea of irreligious here in a derogatory fashion but rather to show the man who IS NOT interested in the versions of Truth from the religious perspective as supplied through the doctrines of men. We speak here of both the religious and the irreligious who DO hear the prompting of their own Soul, their own God and Christ Within, over the clamor of daily living; this IS their motivation to the Good, the Beautiful and the True. There IS NO real need to see such perceptions in religious terms and, as we have discussed in previous essays, it IS likely easier for the irreligious to accept the Truth than the religious man whose indoctrination has led him down doctrinal paths. Truth IS Truth, there IS but One and while it IS embodied in Paul's list of "the fruit of the Spirit", there IS NO need for these ideas to be seen ONLY in a religious perspective. Agape as in the Master's words that "Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself " IS a universal concept and while the First Great Commandment, "thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind, and with all thy strength" specifically mentions "the Lord thy God", one can offer obeisance to God as the Supreme Being even as an atheist. Here we ARE reminded of the Theosophical defining idea of the Godhead that tells us that God IS:
"One Boundless Immutable Principle; one Absolute Reality which, antecedes all manifested conditioned Being. It is beyond the range and reach of any human thought or expression"***
This purely spiritual concept IS beyond religion; it IS seen as heretical in the doctrinal view of most ALL of the church. This concept IS however a True depiction of Jesus' view of the Father which He presented to us in terms that could be understood by the still barbarous and superstitious man of 2000 years ago. There IS another idea that we have used over the course of our writing; this, from Hindu Scripture, IS a similar view of God which can become the view of the irreligious and should perhaps be the view of the religious as well. We read this reflection of obeisance from Sh'vet Upanishad, II.17 saying:
To the God Who is in the Fire and Who is in the waters;
To the God Who has suffused Himself through all the world;
To the God Who is in summer plants and in the lords of the forest;
To that God be adoration, adoration.
While such concepts ARE frowned upon by the doctrinal thinker who sees other religions in their doctrinal forms ONLY, there ARE likely few clear thinkers that could deny the Truth of either of these most profound statements about our God. And, to be clear, the doctrinal thinker DOES NOT see how that his doctrinal approach to the Lord IS the same shadow of the Truth as ARE the doctrines of other religions.
Our point here IS that such ideas as these can be understood and approached by the irreligious as they frame God in such Universal terms. It IS in their obeisance to such concepts; their reverence or their attitude of deference or homage * as this idea IS defined, that they can 'serve' the Lord according to the Great Commandment; this 'service' IS agape and its view IS the totality of His creation especially in extending their reverence or their attitude of deference or homage to ALL. This IS also the True objective of Christian Love, that such an attitude of obeisance should be the Love that flows in "the fruit of the Spirit" and here we should try to see that regardless of one's doctrinal leanings, or lack of such, the idea of this fruit IS the same. It has ever been the relationship between a man and his neighbor, between a man and ALL others, that IS the defining idea of being a saint, being a disciple and having full access to those "exceeding great and precious promises" by which we can become "partakers of the divine nature, having escaped the corruption that is in the world through lust" (2 Peter 1:4). It IS the partaker, the man to whom the Master says "we will come unto him, and make our abode with him", that can move the mountain, uproot the sycamine tree and plant it in the sea and have the capacity to DO those "greater works" that the Master tells us that ARE the purview of "He that hath my commandments, and keepeth them" as we read in our trifecta of spiritual reality. We should understand that while these ideas ARE found in the fullness of pistis, the fullness of KNOWING the Truth and the realization of the mysteries, that the Way IS ever found in striving. It IS in striving to keep His words, in our seeking, our knocking and our asking that this fullness comes to a man by measure under Jesus declaration that "with what measure ye mete, it shall be measured to you again" (Matthew 7:7, 2). We should note here that this idea of asking, from the Greek aiteo, has a more complex meaning than mere words; Strong's tells us that the word IS: of uncertain derivation; to ask (in genitive case):—ask, beg, call for, crave, desire, require 9a. If we can see this word in terms of craving and desiring the Truth, the idea can be much clearer; in such asking, seeking and knocking we have the desire for the Truth and the active pursuit of that Truth. This IS the Way of striving that we should understand in His words saying "Strive to enter in at the strait gate: for many, I say unto you, will seek to enter in, and shall not be able" (Luke 13:24).
The doctrines of men however believe that they have found a shortcut to this fullness and this despite James' caution that men should "be ye doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving your own selves". In James' words we have the singular reality that for 2000 years has gone unheeded as men have taken what they have declared as their shortcut to salvation based in misinterpreted and misapplied words from the Apostle Paul. But NOT ALL have fallen into this form of deception as there IS a whole other side of the religious formulas of men, one that IS NOT based in the adjusted philosophies of the Reformation but IS rather based in the pomp and the ceremonies of the early church and a reliance on sacraments and a vast hierarchy of ecclesiastical authorities. We should remember here that each of these divisions of Christianity ARE themselves split into other groups with much of this split based in political differences rather than spiritual. ALL however have replaced the Truth of Jesus' words with their own doctrinal approach to the Lord, an approach that IS defined by men and ofttimes agreed to by committee. While most have formulated a 'biblical' reasoning for their individual doctrinal bent, reasoning that includes such ideas as the new covenant versus the old and the idea that it IS NOT possible to keep His words which, according to some, ARE purposefully difficult. The point here IS simply that ALL the doctrinal machinations around the singular Truth of the Master's words are but the reasoning of men seeking some future eternal state of bliss. We should try to see here that when Jesus presented a seemingly difficult way to 'salvation', the result was that "from that time many of his disciples went back, and walked no more with him"; here we should pay special attention to the Apostle Peter's realization of the Truth as He answers Jesus' question "Will ye also go away?" saying "Lord, to whom shall we go? thou hast the words of eternal life. And we believe and are sure that thou art that Christ, the Son of the living God" (John 6:66, 67, 68-69). There IS great obscurity in Jesus words to these Jews as He tells them about His relationship to the Father and then compares Himself to the manna that the Jews enjoyed in the desert 1500 years before, a subject that follows upon Jesus' saying to them that "Ye seek me, not because ye saw the miracles, but because ye did eat of the loaves, and were filled". It IS likely His saying that "Except ye eat the flesh of the Son of man, and drink his blood, ye have no life in you" that becomes the tipping point for those Jews and which has fostered that idea of communion with Him through the rituals of the church as Jesus restates this idea at the 'last supper'. The reality of His words IS built upon His saying that "I am that bread of life" and "I am the living bread which came down from heaven: if any man eat of this bread, he shall live for ever: and the bread that I will give is my flesh, which I will give for the life of the world" (John 6:26, 53, 48, 51).
The Truth here IS lost in the rituals of communion which ARE but a pale shadow of the Master's intent, an intent that IS obscured by the very nature of His language. If we could see that He IS here guarding the mystery from those whose interest IS ONLY in His miracles and here especially that miracle of the loaves. The reality of Jesus' words here IS NOT found in the common ideas engendered by His words, ideas of communion through the eating and drinking rituals of the church. His flesh represents His Truth and His blood represents His Life and the intent IS that one should consume both which idea IS tantamount to keeping His words. In the prologue to John's Gospel we read of Jesus that "the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth" (John 1:14) and if we can see these ideas of consuming His flesh and His blood according to this Truth, we can than see the deeper messages that He IS offering to those who can realize what it IS that He Truly saying. Here again we have the deception that men inflict upon themselves as they DO NOT Truly see the idea that the Way, the Truth and the Life IS in our realization of the Truth that IS the Greek word agape and then to express this according to His words and the clarifying and amplifying words of His apostles. Again, such realization can come to everyman regardless of their religious persuasion; the Good, the Beautiful and the True ARE the very nature of the Soul, the Inner Man, and the saint IS that man who can express this fully in agape. If the church in its many forms of denominations and sects would attend to His words of Truth rather than their most carnal claims to the ONLY Way and their doctrinal interpretations of that way, there would be far less acrimony and a greater appreciation of the Truth by those who have chosen to shun the doctrines of men. Perhaps when away from the doctrinal pronouncements of religion and with a focus upon the Truth of the Master's words, even much of the atheistic community could see the Light which IS dampened by the acrimonious views of the churches. There ARE likely few who would deny the most basic Truth of One World, One Humanity and One God, when the idea of God IS seen through the sayings above rather that the myopic attitudes of the doctrinal thinker.
If we could see that "the mystery which hath been hid from ages and from generations, but now is made manifest to his saints" IS the mystery of the True nature of man as a spiritual being born into this vanity, this world of illusion and glamour, from which he must escape, the whole idea of religion takes on a very different perspective. In this understanding there IS NO need to be 'saved' except in the idea that to remain in one's vanity with NO progress IS to waste one's time here in this Earth. We should try to see that there IS ever some manner of progress to be found in one's incursion as a Soul into a Life in this world. However, such small progress as experience may offer IS NOT the objective; the True objective IS found in striving, in asking as we discuss above, in seeking and in knocking, ALL of which bring a man ever closer to KNOWING the Way. In Jesus words that one should "Strive to enter in at the strait gate: for many, I say unto you, will seek to enter in, and shall not be able" there IS NO hint of religion; there IS ONLY His admonition to strive toward the Truth where the difficulty IS simply that those who "will seek to enter in, and shall not be able" ARE those who have chosen NOT to follow the Path of Truth. If we can see here that those who have chosen NOT to follow the Path of Truth but have at the same time chosen to follow their doctrinal approach ARE failing to "Strive to enter in at the strait gate", we can perhaps better see James' idea of deception which IS the hallmark of those who DO NOT keep His words, the hallmark of those who substitute their doctrinal ideas of salvation and atonement for the Truth of His words. We should remember that there ARE those in the doctrinal church that DO teach the greater Truth of keeping His words and the commandments but most DO so against the backdrop of their ideas on 'salvation' and atonement and in this the reality of motivation to be "doers of the word" IS stifled. Too many see the idea of keeping His words as 'works' which they find contrary to Paul's words into which they have intentionally placed their sense of Truth.
It IS in one's striving that True success comes and this IS likely True in most every human endeavor. The Greek word agōnizomai which IS rendered here as strive IS also rendered as fight and "labor fervently" in its other appearances in the King James Bible. Other translations render the word as "do your best", "make every effort", struggle, "try hard" and other such ideas; the Weymouth New Testament gives us "Strain every nerve to force your way in". In these ideas we should see the Master's intent in telling us to "agōnizomai to enter in at the strait gate" and if we can see in this word the totality of the renderings above we can then better understand how that many "will seek to enter in, and shall not be able" because they DO NOT strive, they DO NOT "make every effort" nor "do your best". And these ideas ARE NOT tied ONLY to the Greek word, the English word strive IS defined as: to exert oneself vigorously; try hard; to make strenuous efforts toward any goal; to contend in opposition, battle, or any conflict; compete; to struggle vigorously, as in opposition or resistance; to rival; vie *. In these ideas we should clearly see the True work of salvation from a human perspective and understand that the doctrinal ideas against 'works' ARE against such striving and therefore against the words of the Master. In at least one respect there IS a Truth to our being against 'works' and that IS in regard to Paul's words on the "works of the flesh" which ARE those carnal ideas that ARE contrary to our current topic of "the fruit of the Spirit". But doctrines apply Paul's idea of 'works' in a much broader way which includes a man's striving toward the Truth and toward righteousness. Paul's references to "the works of the law" ARE references intended to show what the Jews' attitudes had become as their striving was NOT in regard to the "strait gate" but was so inclusive of doctrinal precepts that it had become the wide gate and the broad way. We see these ideas in Matthew's version of the Master's words on the "strait gate" where we read "Enter ye in at the strait gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat: Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it" (Matthew 7:13-14). It IS the "wide gate" that IS covered by the ancillary parts of the law which became the Jews' main doctrinal focus supplanting the greater Truths of the Great Commandments and the Ten Commandments; the Jews held such things as the sabbath, circumcision, sacrifice and their observance of 'holy' days in greater regard than they DID Love. It IS against this that Jesus says such things as "go ye and learn what that meaneth, I will have mercy, and not sacrifice" (Matthew 9:13) and His later comment that "if ye had known what this meaneth, I will have mercy, and not sacrifice, ye would not have condemned the guiltless" (Matthew 12:7).
In these ideas as well as in His list of woes against the ways of the Jews' leaders we find the Master's condemnation of their treatment of the law, a treatment which focused upon the meaningless ideas of self governance rather than the True spiritual emphasis of Love, mercy and Truth. The whole of Jesus' list of woes can be summed up perhaps in the very first which says "woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye shut up the kingdom of heaven against men: for ye neither go in yourselves, neither suffer ye them that are entering to go in" (Matthew 23:13). This lesson IS NOT yet Truly learned by the Jew nor was it heeded by the Christian religions which have replaced His Truths with doctrinal leanings that promise eternal Life while nary a one Truly understands just what this means. This brings us back to Peter's response to the Master saying "thou hast the words of eternal life", an idea that we should see IS ALL His words. It IS in His words that True salvation exists and NOT in the doctrinal ideas that see one's desire to express "the fruit of the Spirit" as an unnecessary work which should be replaced by the nebulous doctrinal ideas of faith and believing. Remember Jesus' saying that "by their fruits ye shall know them" (Matthew 7:20).
We will continue with our thoughts in the next post.

Trans-vaginal mesh (TVM) repairs of pelvic organ prolapse are causing complications with disturbing frequency. The FDA issued an urgent alert on July 13, 2011, warning patients and doctors of the risks associated with trans-vaginal mesh (you can read the FDA's complete warning here). Unlike many FDA alerts, this information does not affect only one batch of products, from a single manufacturer. Trans-vaginal mesh and bladder slings from nine separate companies are affected by the recall. The most common complication is extrusion, which occurs when the mesh erodes through the vaginal wall. The second most-common complication is contraction, or shrinkage, which can lead to severe pelvic pain and/or bleeding. Many trans-vaginal mesh patients report pain during intercourse, often for both partners. Other potential problems include bladder perforation, pelvic hemorrhage, and urinary incontinence. If you or a loved one is experiencing any complications from trans-vaginal mesh or bladder sling surgery, call the attorneys at Colling Gilbert Wright & Carter for a free consultation today.
