The Utah man accused of killing Charlie Kirk was back in court Friday as a state judge denied some efforts by his attorneys to restrict public access to court documents while not ruling out the possibility of closing portions of an upcoming hearing.
The outcome sets the stage for an April hearing in which attorneys for Tyler Robinson will make their case to exclude TV cameras, microphones and photographers from the courtroom.
Judge Tony Graf has been weighing the public's right to know details about the case against concerns by defense attorneys that the heightened media attention could undermine Robinson's right to a fair trial. Prosecutors, Kirk's widow and attorneys for news organizations have urged Graf to keep the proceedings open.
Prosecutors intend to seek the death penalty for Robinson, 22, who is charged with aggravated murder in the Sept. 10 shooting of the conservative activist on the Utah Valley University campus in Orem. They have said DNA evidence connects Robinson to the killing.
Robinson has not yet entered a plea.

Attorneys on Friday debated whether the defense's written request to exclude cameras, which was classified by the court as private, should be made public.
Graf said the defense failed to make its case to keep the motion private but that he will continue "balancing all the factors" when deciding which portions of the upcoming hearing may be closed.
Staci Visser, an attorney for Robinson, told the judge before the ruling that the defense is not arguing in the court of public opinion.
"There seems to be an idea that flooding the public sphere with information from this courtroom will somehow dispel conspiracy theories or shift public narratives. That, in and of itself, is concerning to the defense," Visser said. "All we should be worried about is protecting what happens in this courtroom."
Robinson's defense team went on to say that the April 17 hearing will involve discussions about prejudicial pretrial publicity, such as evidence that has yet to be admitted, personal opinions about guilt or public statements that would otherwise be inadmissible in court. Revisiting that in open court could end up "reinflicting a wound" to Robinson's rights, defense attorney Michael Burt said.
Christopher Ballard, a prosecutor with the Utah County Attorney's Office, dismissed those arguments. He said careful questioning during jury selection and tools like expanding the jury pool can ensure a defendant gets a fair trial.
"So just saying that this is a content tornado or there's been a barrage of media coverage doesn't necessarily mean that there is going to be prejudice to the defendant," Ballard said.
Ballard noted that most of the evidence that will be discussed in April is already public, so most of the hearing should be open.
Coalitions of national and local news organizations, including The Associated Press, have been fighting to preserve media access in the case. Michael Judd, an attorney for the news media, urged the judge to keep the upcoming hearing entirely open.
Media access has been a focal point of several recent hearings, with the judge placing temporary restrictions on local TV stations for showing Robinson's shackles in violation of a court order and filming close-up shots that might allow viewers to interpret what he was discussing with his attorneys.
The judge also has prevented full video recordings of Kirk's shooting from being shown in court after defense attorneys argued the graphic footage would interfere with a fair trial. An estimated 3,000 people attended the outdoor rally to hear Kirk, an ally of President Donald Trump who worked to steer young voters toward conservatism.
Lat month, the judge rejected a defense motion to disqualify the prosecutors handling the case. Robinson's attorneys had sought to disqualify the prosecutors assigned to his case because the 18-year-old daughter of one of the deputy county attorney was at the event where Kirk was fatally shot, which, they argued, constituted a conflict of interest. The teen, whose name was redacted from court filings, texted her father and described the events surrounding the shooting.
In December, Erika Kirk, who now leads Turning Point USA, joined CBS News for a town hall where she explained the "game-time decision" of publicly forgiving the man charged with her husband's murder.
"I forgive him because it's what Christ did and is what Charlie would do," she said in her eulogy at her husband's memorial service.
When asked if she had any words for his accused killer, she said: "Nothing. I have nothing to say to you. Nothing."

"Bloodlines" is a 1993 comic book story arc published by DC Comics. It was an intracompany crossover that ran through DC's superhero annuals and concluded with a two-issue Bloodbath miniseries written by Dan Raspler. The antagonists were a race of monstrous dragon-like aliens who killed humans for their spinal fluid.

Before the discoveries of the authors of Holy Blood, Holy Grail, Dagobert's assassination was
regarded as the end of the Merovingian dynasty. At least this is what the Catholic Church wanted the world to believe. In its place in 754 A.D. Rome established the Carolingian dynasty with Pepin II. The name "Carolingian" derives from Charles Martel, grandfather of Charlemagne, the first designated "Holy Roman Emperor." This title, by virtue of the pact with Clovis three centuries before, should have been reserved exclusively for the Merovingians.
The authors of Holy Blood discovered, however, that Dagobert's son (Sigisbert IV) by his second
wife had survived. His sister had rescued him and smuggled him southward to the domain of his mother, the Visigoth princess Giselle de Razes. Arriving in the Lanquedoc (southern France) in 681 A.D., he shortly thereafter inherited his uncle's titles - Duke of Razes and Count of Rhedae.

All historians acknowledge the ascendancy of the popes began in 308 A.D., when King Clovis of the Salian or Merovingian Franks (later France), won the decisive battle in the Catholic and Arian religious war, thereby settling the dispute in favor of the Catholics.

Charizard (/ËtÊÉËrÉȘzÉËrd/ ⓘ), known in Japan as Lizardon (Japanese: ăȘă¶ăŒăăł, Hepburn: RizÄdon), is a PokĂ©mon in Nintendo and Game Freak's PokĂ©mon franchise. Created by Atsuko Nishida,[1] Charizard first appeared in the video games PokĂ©mon Red and Blue (PokĂ©mon Red and Green in Japan) and subsequent sequels. They have later appeared in various merchandise, spinoff titles and animated and printed adaptations of the franchise. Shin-ichiro Miki voices Charizard in both the Japanese and English-language versions of the anime. An orange, dragon-like PokĂ©mon, Charizard is the evolved form of Charmeleon and the final evolution of Charmander. It also has two "Mega Evolved" forms, Mega Charizard X and Y, that were likely both designed by Tomohiro Kitakaze, the designer of Mega Charizard X.[3] It also has a Gigantamax form in PokĂ©mon Sword and Shield, which changes its appearance and size.

Sigisbert also adopted the surname "Plant-Ard" (subsequently Plantard), which means "ardently
flowering shoot" of the Merovingian vine. Under this name, and under the titles acquired from his uncle, he perpetuated his lineage. By 886 A.D. one branch of that lineage culminated in a certain Bernard Plantavelu (which name is a derivative of Plant-Ard or Plantard), whose son became the first Duke of Aquitaine.18

On September 10, 2025, Charlie Kirk, an American right-wing political activist, was assassinated while addressing an audience on the campus of Utah Valley University (UVU) in Orem, Utah, United States. The outdoor event was the first stop of the Fall 2025 season for the American Comeback Tour, a speaking and debate series planned by Turning Point USA, a conservative youth organization that he co-founded.
Kirk was fatally shot in the neck while engaging with an audience member about mass shootings in the United States by a sniper on the roof of a building approximately 142 yards (130 m) away from him. The next day, 22-year-old Tyler James Robinson surrendered himself to the local sheriff. Prosecutors charged Robinson with murder on September 16 and announced they would seek the death penalty, alleging the attack was politically motivated.[2][3][4]

Preliminary Hearing Set for Adam Miller in Murder Case

Adam Elijah Miller, who is charged with killing his father and attempting to kill his mother, will appear in Canal Justice Court in Fernley on March 5-6 for a preliminary hearing before Judge Lori Matheus.
A preliminary hearing is a court proceeding used to determine whether there is sufficient evidence to proceed with a criminal case. Judge Matheus will decide whether probable cause exists to believe a crime was committed and that the defendant likely committed it. The prosecution presents basic evidence and may call witnesses, and the defense can cross-examine them, but it is not a full trial. If the judge finds probable cause, the case proceeds; if not, the charges may be dismissed.
Miller, who was 19 at the time of his arrest, led law enforcement on a 30-hour manhunt after he allegedly stabbed his parents. He is charged with Open Murder with the Use of a Deadly Weapon, a Category A Felony, which is punishable by the death penalty, life in prison, 20 years to life, or 50 years in prison with parole eligibility after 20 years.
Count I of the criminal complaint filed by the Lyon County District Attorney’s Office alleges that on or about December 18, 2024, in Fernley, Adam Miller used a knife to stab Lance Miller in the neck, inflicting mortal injuries. Count II alleges that he stabbed Elizabeth Miller, 61, in the neck. Count III also relates to the alleged stabbing of Elizabeth Miller and charges Adam Miller with Battery with a Deadly Weapon Causing Substantial Bodily Harm to a Victim 60 Years of Age or Older, which is punishable by 2-15 years.
A separate case charges Adam Miller with Carrying a Concealed Pistol, Revolver, Firearm, or other Deadly Weapon, a Category C Felony punishable by 1-5 years, and alleges he was in possession of a .380 handgun on Nov. 21, 2024.
After an evaluation by two doctors, Adam Miller was deemed competent to stand trial. Should probable cause be determined during the March preliminary hearing, the case will be bound over to the Third Judicial District Court for Lyon County in Yerington.
Miller has pleaded not guilty and is presumed innocent unless proven guilty in a court of law.

Strategic Corruption
A Useful Concept or a Catch-All?
by Tena Prelec
Published on: August 29th, 2025
Read time: 6 mins
In recent years, the term ‘strategic corruption’ has gained traction across policy, academic, and advocacy circles. Coined to describe the use of corrupt practices as deliberate instruments of foreign policy, the concept has come into focus particularly since the escalation of geopolitical rivalries following Russia’s invasion of Ukraine. Yet even as its usage has expanded, its precise meaning remains contested.
An expert workshop supported by the Independent Social Research Foundation (ISRF) and the University of Rijeka brought together scholars and practitioners to probe the concept’s boundaries, practical applications, and analytical utility. The discussions were rich, critical, and ultimately inconclusive—revealing just how much definitional and conceptual work remained to be done.
This blog post shares key insights from that workshop and draws on recent research, including my co-authored article with David Lewis in a special issue of Public Integrity (2025), to move toward a more grounded and precise understanding of what strategic corruption is—and what it is not.
What’s at Stake: Definitional Drift and Conceptual Uncertainty
The origin of the term ‘strategic corruption’ is closely linked to the securitisation of anti-corruption policy. An influential 2020 essay by Zelikow et al., ‘The Rise of Strategic Corruption: How States Weaponize Graft’, cast the practice as an intentional tool of authoritarian foreign policy. This framing, embraced by the Biden administration, elevated transnational corruption to a national security priority in the United States.
Yet this shift, while welcome in some operational respects, came with conceptual costs. ‘Strategic corruption’ became a catch-all label, applied not only to the use of bribery and illicit finance, but also to cybercrime, disinformation, opaque investment, and elite capture. Often, these disparate activities were bundled together without clearly establishing the linkages—or the corruption. As one workshop participant put it, this risks turning the term into an empty vessel: rhetorically powerful but analytically slippery.
The Cres workshop discussions highlighted several ambiguities that need to be addressed for the concept to retain value. First, what is really new about strategic corruption? Is it the novelty of tactic—or their combination? Or is it the geopolitical context in which they are deployed?
Second, does the term sufficiently clarify the actors and mechanisms involved? Several participants questioned whether the concept overstates the coherence of state strategies and underplays the role of private networks, commercial actors, and hybrid entities. If everything from state-owned banks to cyber operations counts as strategic corruption, where do we draw the line?
Third, how useful is the dichotomy between authoritarian and democratic systems in this debate? Some argued that it is central, pointing to how authoritarian regimes leverage corruption abroad to weaken democracies. Others noted that democracies, too, engage in or enable corrupt practices abroad, and that the ‘democracy vs. autocracy’ framing may obscure more than it reveals. This remark has now been made more poignant by the current 180-degree reversal on anti-corruption policy by the Trump administration.
These tensions are also reflected in the growing academic literature on the topic. In their recent article in Public Integrity, Pozsgai-Alvarez and Lang (2025) outline four main strands of how the concept is used: strategy-oriented (focused on intentionality and state agency), tool-oriented (emphasising the corrupt instruments), effect-oriented (outcomes such as institutional destabilisation), and structure-oriented (underlying geopolitical or systemic drivers). Yet even these categories sometimes overlap or conflict.
What Strategic Corruption Is
In our own Public Integrity article, David Lewis and I argue that what is often referred to as strategic corruption is better understood as a subtype of networked corruption, that is, corruption embedded in transnational networks, involving both state and non-state actors, and reliant on a combination of legal and illegal tools. Not all networked corruption is strategic, however. The distinguishing feature is intent.
Strategic corruption, in this framing, refers specifically to the intentional use of cross-border corrupt practices by state actors, or non-state actors working on their behalf, to advance geopolitical objectives. The first point is the already-mentioned intent: actions may be diffuse, indirect, or outsourced to intermediaries, but they are not accidental or incidental. Rather, they are part of a broader political strategy. Second, strategic corruption tends to involve some degree of state involvement or direction. While private actors may play key roles, the activities are typically aligned with, or facilitated by, state institutions or foreign policy aims. This distinguishes it from purely profit-driven corruption. Third, strategic corruption is defined by its targeted function: it seeks to weaken democratic institutions, undermine governance frameworks, or realign a state’s international orientation or assert hegemony. This may involve manipulating electoral systems, co-opting elites, using military and security assets, or fostering dependency through illicit financial ties. The point is not merely to extract value, but to reshape political outcomes in the target country. An important caveat is that while such practices are often illegal, they may also take forms that are formally legal yet illicit in intent and effect.
What Strategic Corruption Is Not
Strategic corruption is not simply large-scale or international in scope. It is not the same as kleptocracy, though the two may overlap. It is not driven solely by economic gain, nor is it the result of uncoordinated, opportunistic behaviour. Without evidence of deliberate political intent and state alignment, the use of corrupt practices—even if consequential—should not automatically be classified as strategic corruption.
Why Definitional Precision Matters
A clearer, narrower definition of strategic corruption is vital for both research and policy. Without it, the term risks becoming a catch-all for malign foreign influence, used to justify reactive or securitised anti-corruption responses. It may also obscure the role played by domestic actors and Western enablers in facilitating corrupt flows. At its worst, it can end up being little more than a phrase used in propaganda, or it could even be used to paint political enemies as traitors without evidence to back up accusations.
By focusing on intent, state involvement, and political targeting, we can distinguish strategic corruption from adjacent concepts and build a typology that allows for more robust analysis and potential evidencing. This will be particularly useful to any actors wishing to develop better, more effective responses to the threat.
This clarity also opens the door to comparative research: How do different states deploy strategic corruption? What tools do they favour, and under what conditions does it work? The Cres workshop showed that we are only at the beginning of understanding this phenomenon. Pinning down its meaning allows us to move past slogans and start asking harder questions about evidence, mechanisms, and impact. The discussion is far from over, but this post is a step toward sharpening the concept—and an invitation to others to carry it forward.

Troy Driver, Who Allegedly Kidnapped and Murdered Naomi Irion Last Month, was Denied Bail Today in a Nevada Courtroom
Troy Driver, 41, was rearraigned today in a Nevada courtroom, charged with murdering Naomi Irion, 18. Driver was arraigned late last month, accused of kidnapping Naomi from the Walmart parking lot in Fernley on 12 March around 5:30 am. Her body was found 17 days later, 150 miles away in Churchill County, home to Driver for many years. He met with his defence attorney for one hour yesterday, Richard Davies. Lead attorney Davies, who reportedly specialises in criminal defence, did not object when Driver was denied bail. He says his client is innocent, revealing that the defence will conduct its own investigation into the matter. Driver was originally represented by public defender Mario Walther; both he and Davies will work on Driver's defence.
Driver stands accused of murder with the use of a deadly weapon, and felony charges of kidnapping, robbery, burglary and destruction of evidence. An amended complaint filed Tuesday alleges that Driver kidnapped Naomi specifically "for the purpose of committing sexual assault, extortion, or robbery upon or from the person of killing the person or inflicting substantial bodily harm."
Driver is presumed innocent until proven guilty under the law. He has a violent criminal past, committing several felonies as a teenager in his home state of California, all involving firearms. A burglar in his mid-teens, Driver stole firearms. He held up a convenience store and petrol stations at gunpoint. (As it so happens, Naomi was shot in the head and chest.) And Driver, aged 17, was an accessory both before and after the fact in the murder of methamphetamine dealer Paul Rodriguez in 1997. Pleading guilty to accessory after the fact and the other charges (burglary and armed robbery), he served 15 years in state prison before moving to Nevada in 2012, working steadily for construction companies in a supervisory capacity, most recently for Ledcor. (This is a developing story and I will update.)
https://www.reddit.com/r/TrueCrimeDiscussion/comments/tzcaa1/troy_driver_who_allegedly_kidnapped_and_murdered/
On August 6, 2023, Driver was found dead in his cell when prison personnel arrived for a routine inmate check.[13] His death was ruled a suicide by asphyxiation.[13][14] While he was never convicted, officials said the evidence against him was overwhelming. Forensic evidence, including his DNA, were found on Irion's body. Driver also left a note in which he apologized for the "darkness within" himself.[15]

As per numerology, 666 when added comes to 9, a tricky number that stands for greediness, and natural disasters. But 9 (6+6+6+18=1+8=9) is also the number of Mars (Mangal) which means extra energy which can either make or break. It is impulsive, restless, stubborn and inflexible,' adds Jumaani.

Dear Mr. Dunn:
On behalf of the Court, I would like to take this opportunity to express my sincere appreciation for your service as a juror in State of Nevada v. Ryan Joe Coddington. Your conscientious consideration of the challenging and sensitive issues presented to you in this case proves that our Constitutional system of trial by our peers works to ensure fair and unbiased decisions are handed out of our courts.
Abraham Lincoln once said that "A jury is the common sense of a common people." The only way we have justice is through the judicial system in the United States. Justice really means fairness. It means that if you're charged with a crime, you can appear in front of a jury of your peers who will judge the facts fairly as a citizen of this State. A jury of your peers means a mix of people from all walks of life using their common sense to do justice. It is one of the most important civic responsibilities of being a United States Citizen.
I appreciate the fact that you responded to your summons as a juror willing to do your job. Our judicial system only works because citizens like you are interested, concerned and willing to make whatever arrangements are necessary in their personal lives to be able to perform this invaluable service. Your presence on the jury was a great asset in this case.
Once again, I would like to thank you on behalf of the Court and the people of Lyon County for your willingness to serve as a juror and to give so freely of your time and abilities. I admire you for your commitment to this case.
With great respect,
Honorable John P. Schlegelmilch District Court Judge

In Revelation 17:7, Who is the woman riding the Beast?

But the angel said to me, "Why are you so amazed? I will tell you the mystery of the woman, and of the beast with seven heads and ten horns that carries her.
-- Revelation 17:7 (NRS)
Dave Hunt, who is an apologist and author, wrote a book called A Woman Rides the Beast. The woman who rides the beast, in his beliefs on scripture, refers mostly to Rome and the revived Roman Empire. But in each chapter, Dave continues to talk about other factors that play into this mysterious woman, including the false perception of Mary, the Vatican's connection to the holocaust, and "the failure of the first pope." The first pope, of course, was Peter but how did he fail as pope? He also wrote that "the gospel was being spread before any church was ever established", an excellent point made against Roman Catholicism.

Considering that current global membership of the Order of Nine Angles has been estimated at roughly 2000 active members, how many of these ONA members have embarked upon a plan to engage in some type of human sacrifice? Are there impressionable individuals enthralled by ONA ideology enough to carry out the culling directive?
Most Satanists cannot publish an autobiography, or even have a biography which relates their life in detail while they still live, for the simple reason that it would probably render them liable to prosecution by those asinine guardians of the even more stupid system of 'Law'.

La Loge des Neuf SĆurs (French pronunciation: [la lÉÊ de nĆf sĆÊ]; The Nine Sisters), established in Paris in 1734, was a prominent French Masonic Lodge of the Grand Orient de France that was influential in organising French support for the American Revolution. A "SociĂ©tĂ© des Neuf SĆurs," a charitable society that surveyed academic curricula, had been active at the AcadĂ©mie Royale des Sciences since 1769. Its name referred to the nine Muses, the daughters of Mnemosyne/Memory, patrons of the arts and sciences since antiquity, and long significant in French cultural circles. The Lodge of similar name and purpose was opened in 1776, by JĂ©rĂŽme de Lalande. From the start of the French Revolution in 1789 until 1792, Les Neuf SĆurs became a "SociĂ©tĂ© Nationale".
During the French Revolution, while the Académie Royale des Sciences et des Arts was drastically reorganised, two members of the lodge, Antoine Laurent de Jussieu and Gilbert Romme, in collaboration with Henri Grégoire, helped to organise a "Société Libre des Sciences, Belles Lettres et Arts", to subsidise what had become the Institut de France so as to keep the original influence of the "Neuf Soeurs" intact. (Hahn, 1971) The lodge was reconstituted under its original name in 1805, ceased operation from 1829 to 1836, and finally closed in 1848. Its former location is thought to be on the Rue de la Bûcherie on the Left Bank across from Notre-Dame.[1]
Its successive "Venerable Masters" of the first decade were Benjamin Franklin (1779–1781), Marquis de La Salle (1781–1783), Milly (1783–1784), Charles Dupaty (1784), Elie de Beaumont (1784–1785), and Claude Pastoret (1788–1789) (Ligou, 1987).
The Americans
A token from Les Neuf SĆurs (1783).
In 1778, the year Voltaire became a member, Benjamin Franklin and John Paul Jones also were accepted along with Jean Sylvain Bailly. Benjamin Franklin became Master of the Lodge in 1779, and was re-elected in 1780. When Franklin, after a long and influential stay in Europe, returned to America to participate in the writing of the Constitution, Thomas Jefferson a non-Mason took over as American Envoy.
Jean-Antoine Houdon, a member of Les Neuf SĆurs, added Jefferson's marble bust to his corpus of works, which included busts of Franklin and General Lafayette. Jefferson persuaded Houdon to make his famous statue of George Washington, for which Houdon travelled to America in 1785.
While Jefferson stayed in Paris, at the Maison des Feuillants, his neighbour was Jean-François Marmontel Secretary-for-Life of the Paris Academy of Sciences and another member of the Lodge. At the same time Jefferson's friend, American Founding Father John Adams, was the neighbour, at Auteuil, of Anne-Catherine de Ligniville, Madame HelvĂ©tius, who hosted the famous Cercle d'Auteuil where the influence of Les Neuf SĆurs was at its highest.[citation needed]
In MĂ©moires pour servir Ă l'histoire du Jacobinisme (4 vol.,1797–1798) AbbĂ© Barruel attributed membership to key figures of the French Revolution like Jacques Pierre Brissot (Barruel claims Brissot was a member of Neuf Soeurs, although Brissot wrote that he was initiated into a German Lodge but was never active) and Georges Danton.[2]
Members
Voltaire (1694–1778) — Initiated on April 4, 1778, in Paris; his conductors were Benjamin Franklin and Antoine Court de GĂ©belin. He died the following month. His membership however was symbolic of the independence of mind Les Neuf SĆurs stood for.

Seminary of St. John SĂ©minaire Syro-ChaldĂ©en St. Jean, MaÊżhad MÄr YƫងannÄ al-កabÄ«b
A prestigious Roman Catholic theological seminary in Mosul, Iraq, called SĂ©minaire Syro-ChaldĂ©en St. Jean in French. It was founded by the French Dominican Fathers in 1878, and though it was closed between the beginning of the First World War and 1923, it continued to serve the Chald. and Syr. Catholic churches until 1973, when it was shut down by the Iraqi authorities. It was divided into two main parts: Le Petit SĂ©minaire, a junior and senior high school which consisted of six years of studies after elementary school, where the study of French, Syriac, and Arabic language and literature was essential, and Le Grand SĂ©minaire, which consisted of two years of Philosophy and four years of Theology, including Biblical Studies. Throughout its history, the instruction in both parts of the Seminary was entirely in French, and its strength remained in the study of language and literature. Eminent scholars graduated from this institution, including 1. Awgen Manna (1866–1928) who published DalÄ«l al-rÄghibÄ«n fÄ« lughat al-ÄrÄmiyyÄ«n [Guide for the Students of the Aramaic Language] (Mosul, 1900), an excellent Syriac-Arabic dictionary; 2. the well-known Alphonse Mingana (1878–1937) who published among other things the Chronicle of Arbela (Mosul, 1907) and Clef de la langue aramĂ©enne (Mosul, 1905), a valuable Syriac grammar; and 3. Addai Scher (martyred in Turkey in 1915), a prolific writer who published the Histoire nestorienne inĂ©dite (Chronique de SĂ©ert). Most of the professors were French Dominicans, including the great Syriacist Fr. Jean-Maurice Fiey (1914–95), who was the Director of the Seminary for a short period before he was forced to leave Iraq in 1973. A few Seminary graduates became professors there, as in the case of Mingana in the 1900s, and in the 1950s and 1960s Fr. Albert AbĆ«nÄ, professor of Syriac, who published among other things the French translation of the second part of the Chronicle of 1234 (1974). Hundreds of Iraqi priests graduated from this Seminary, many becoming bishops and at least one, the Syr. Catholic Gabriel Tappuni (1879–1968), becoming patr. The Seminary published several internal journals, but the now rare Bulletin du SĂ©minaire Syro-ChaldĂ©en (1940s and 1950s) included scholarly papers on Syriac. In the more recent history of the Seminary, Fr. Joseph Omez (1902–74) was its director, and it was thanks to him that this institution was modernized and some 84 highly educated and multi-lingual priests graduated, some still serving the church of Iraq and elsewhere.

After the Flood, God established a covenant with Noah and his sons (Shem, Ham, Japheth) in Genesis 9, promising never again to destroy all life with a flood, symbolized by the rainbow. This "Noachian" phase involved new commands to fill the earth, permission to eat meat, and the establishment of human courts to enforce capital punishment for murder, as outlined in the Seven Laws of Noah, including prohibitions against murder, theft, and idolatry.

The first member of the family who was known to use the name "Rothschild" was Isaak Elchanan Rothschild, born in 1577. The name is derived from the German zum rothen Schild (with the old spelling "th"), meaning "at the red shield", in reference to the house where the family lived for many generations (in those days, houses were designated not by numbers, but by signs displaying different symbols or colours).

Finally, the Constitutions train us all for perfection, instructing us in the weapons to be used in combatting our three fierce and raging adversaries. They teach us how to counter the lust of the flesh with chastity, the lust of the eyes with poverty, and the pride of life with obedience. I shall say nothing of our observance of chastity (in which we should imitate the purity of the angels so far as our frailty allows), or of our OBSERVANCE of poverty (which is so STRICT that neither churches nor professed houses may acquire any rents, lands, or even perpetual endowments).

2 §1. The character and charism of the Society of Jesus arise from the Spiritual Exercises which our holy father Ignatius and his companions went through. Led by this experience, they formed an apostolic group rooted in charity, in which, after they had taken the vows of chastity and poverty and had been raised to the priesthood, they offered themselves as a HOLOCAUST to God,[2] so that serving as soldiers of God beneath the banner of the cross and serving the Lord alone and the Church his spouse under the Roman Pontiff, the vicar of Christ on earth,[3] they would be sent into the entire world[4] for the defense and propagation of the faith and for the progress of souls in Christian life and doctrine.

Knight of Malta Geoffrey T. Boisi, 2005 #370
Pictured above is one of many powerful Roman Catholic American Knights of
Malta serving the occult government of the Black Pope. Mr. Boisi’s extensive
resume illustrates the totality of control with which the Jesuit Order rules the
American Empire’s investment banking industry. That power extends—and has
always extended—to prominent New York Jewish banking firms via the Order’s
New York-based Council on Foreign Relations. This cleverly hidden truth lays
to rest the rhetoric of right-wing, neo-fascist propagandists of every stripe who
deceptively blame the Jews in general for the Great Depression of 1929, our de
facto national bankruptcy in 1933 and the resultant financial and monetary
monopoly of the Company’s wicked Federal Reserve System, its New York branch
holding the nation’s gold reserve to which FDR (whose 1924 political comeback
he attributed to New York Governor, Knight of Columbus Al Smith) gave all
right, title and interest. Mr. Boisi is a trustee of the Carnegie Corporation of
New York; the chairman and senior partner of Roundtable Investment Partners,
LLC; a general partner in Rhone Group, LP; a special limited partner of The
Tremont Group, LLC; a member of the board of directors of Freddie Mac; an
overseer of the Wharton School (which New York Roman Catholic industrialist
Donald Trump attended); a trustee of the Order’s Boston College; a director of
the CFR-controlled Brookings Institute; a trustee of (Knight of Malta) Joseph P.
Kennedy Enterprises; a member of the Trilateral Commission; and a trustee of
The Papal Foundation. Mr. Boisi has been Vice Chairman of JPMorgan Chase
serving as CEO of JPMorgan (evidencing the bond between both Morgan and
Rockefeller Empires); a founding member of The Beacon Group later acquired
by Chase; a senior member of Goldman, Sachs serving as partner-in-charge of
global finance, head of investment banking services and partner-in-charge of
mergers and acquisitions. Receiving the Cancer Research Institute’s Oliver R.
Grace Award and honored by John Paul II as a Steward of St. Peter, Mr. Boisi
serves “that great city which reigneth over the kings of the earth.” (Rev.17:18)

Samuel[a] is a figure who, in the narratives of the Hebrew Bible, plays a key role in the transition from the biblical judges to the United Kingdom of Israel under Saul, and again in the monarchy's transition from Saul to David. He is venerated as a prophet in Judaism, Christianity, and Islam. In addition to his role in the Jewish Bible/Old Testament, Samuel is mentioned in Jewish rabbinical literature, in the Christian New Testament, and in the second chapter of the Quran (although the text does not mention him by name). He is also treated in the fifth through seventh books of Antiquities of the Jews, written by the Jewish scholar Josephus in the first century. He is first called "the Seer" in 1 Samuel 9:9.

Who was Samuel in the Bible?
Answer
Samuel, whose name means “heard of God,” was dedicated to God by his mother, Hannah, as part of a vow she made before he was born (1 Samuel 1:11). Hannah had been barren and prayed so fervently for a child that Eli the priest thought she was drunk (1 Samuel 1). God granted Hannah’s request, and, true to her promise, Hannah dedicated Samuel to the Lord. After Samuel was weaned, likely around the age of four, he was brought to the tabernacle to serve under Eli the priest (1 Samuel 1:22–25). Even as a child, Samuel was given his own tunic, a garment normally reserved for a priest as he ministered before the Lord in the tent of meeting at Shiloh, where the ark of the covenant was kept (1 Samuel 2:18; 3:3). Traditionally, the sons of the priest would succeed their father’s ministry; however, Eli’s sons, Hophni and Phinehas, were wicked in that they were immoral and showed contempt for the Lord’s offering (1 Samuel 2:17, 22). Meanwhile, Samuel continued to grow in stature and in favor with the Lord and with men (1 Samuel 2:26).
At a time when prophecies and visions were rare, Samuel heard what he first believed to be Eli calling him during the night. Though the young Samuel was ministering in the tabernacle, he still didn’t know the Lord, and the word of the Lord had not yet been revealed to him (1 Samuel 3:7). The first three times the Lord called Samuel, the boy responded to Eli. Eli then understood what was happening and instructed Samuel to respond to the Lord if he called again. Then, "The LORD came and stood there, calling as at the other times, ’samuel! Samuel!' Then Samuel said, ’speak, for your servant is listening'" (1 Samuel 3:10). God gave him a message of judgment to relay to Eli. The following day, Samuel took his first leap of faith, telling Eli everything, even though the message was bad news for Eli and his family (1 Samuel 3:11–18). Eli responded with acceptance. Samuel’s credibility as a prophet spread throughout Israel, and God continued to reveal His Word to His people through Samuel (1 Samuel 3:20–21).
The Philistines, perennial enemies of Israel, attacked God’s people. Eli’s sons were killed in the battle, and the ark of the covenant was captured and taken to Philistia. Upon hearing the news of his sons’ deaths, Eli also died. After several months, the Philistines returned the ark to Israel, where it remained at Kiriath Jearim for over twenty years. As the Israelites cried out to God for help against the Philistine oppressors, Samuel instructed them to be rid of the false gods they had been worshiping. With Samuel’s leadership, and by God’s power, the Philistines were overcome, and there was a time of peace between them (1 Samuel 7:9–13). Samuel was recognized as the judge of all Israel.
Like Eli’s sons, Samuel’s two sons, Joel and Abijah, sinned before God by seeking dishonest gain and perverting justice. Samuel had appointed his sons as judges, but the elders of Israel told Samuel that because he was too old and his sons did not walk in his ways, they wanted Samuel to appoint a king to rule like other nations had (1 Samuel 8:1–5). Samuel’s initial reaction to their demand was one of great displeasure, and he prayed to God about the matter. God told Samuel that they had not rejected him, but had rejected God as their king. God gave Samuel leave to permit their request but warned the people what they could expect from a king (1 Samuel 8:6–21).
In time, Saul, a Benjamite, was anointed by Samuel as Israel’s first king (1 Samuel 10:1). Even so, Samuel called on God for a sign to show the Israelites the evil of choosing to replace their true king—God—with an earthly king (1 Samuel 12:16–18). After a time, Samuel learned that Saul had been rejected by God to lead His people because of Saul’s disobedience (1 Samuel 13:11–13). Samuel immediately warned Saul that God had already sought out a replacement for him (1 Samuel 13:14). After Saul continued to disobey, Samuel denounced him as king (1 Samuel 15:26). Samuel returned home, never to be at King Saul’s side again, but he mourned for him (1 Samuel 15:35). God instructed Samuel to choose another king from the family of Jesse (1 Samuel 16:1), and Samuel anointed Jesse’s youngest son, David (1 Samuel 16:13). Samuel died before David was made king, though, and "all Israel assembled and mourned for him" (1 Samuel 25:1).
The life of Samuel was pivotal in Israel’s history. He was a prophet, he anointed the first two kings of Israel, and he was the last in the line of Israel’s judges, considered by many as the greatest judge (Acts 13:20). Samuel is cited alongside Moses and Aaron as men who called on God and were answered (Psalm 99:6). Later in Israel’s history, when the Israelites were living in disobedience to God, the Lord declared they were beyond even the defense of Moses and Samuel, two of Israel’s greatest intercessors (Jeremiah 15:1). This is a clear indication of the power of Samuel’s prayers—and the depth of Israel’s sin in Jeremiah’s day.
There is much to learn from the life of Samuel. In particular, we see the sovereignty of God in Israel, no matter whom the people chose to reign over them. We may allow other things or people to occupy the throne of our hearts, but God will always remain sovereign and will never accept usurpers to His authority in the lives of His subjects.
We can imagine how daunting it must have been for the young Samuel to give an honest account of his first vision to Eli. However, it appears that, even from a young age, Samuel’s absolute allegiance was to God first. There may be times when we feel intimidated by those in authority, but, as Samuel proved more than once, it is God who must remain our priority. The world may look on us cynically when we remain steadfast in our faith. However, we can be confident that God will vindicate those who have remained faithful to His Word (Psalm 135:14).
Though Samuel had deep reservations about letting the people have a king, he was quick to consult God about the matter and abided by His decision (1 Samuel 8:6–7). Many of us may consult God about important decisions in our lives, but how many of us are ready to accept His counsel and abide by it, especially when it appears to go against our own desires? Leaders in particular can learn from Samuel’s example of the power he derived from his close relationship with God, generated by a healthy prayer life. Samuel was a great man of prayer, and his people respected him for it (1 Samuel 12:19, 23). Even though Samuel was aware of the evil in Saul’s life, he never stopped praying and mourning for him. Indeed, Samuel described it as a sin not to pray for the people under his care. Perhaps too quickly we may deem a brother beyond restoration when we see him fall into sin. Certainly, God’s plans for each individual will come to pass, but it should never stop us from continuing to pray and care for those who are weaker in their faith (Romans 15:1; 1 Thessalonians 5:14).
The main theme throughout Samuel’s life is that God alone should receive the glory and honor. After making his sons judges, it must have been a very sad thing for Samuel to learn that they were unfit to lead. When he consulted God about the people’s request for a king, nothing was said in defense of his sons. Samuel was obedient to God’s instructions to give the people what they wanted.
A key verse in the life of Samuel relates his words to King Saul: “But Samuel replied: ‘Does the Lord delight in burnt offerings and sacrifices as much as in obeying the voice of the Lord? To obey is better than sacrifice, and to heed is better than the fat of rams’” (1 Samuel 15:22). Obedience to God’s Word must always be our top priority.

Abstract
Diagnostic of transsexualism and gender incongruence are terms to describe individuals whose self-identity does not match their sex assignment at birth. A transgender woman is an individual assigned male at birth (AMAB) on the basis of the external or internal genitalia who identifies and lives as a woman. In recent decades, a significant increase in the number of transgender people has been reported. Although, its etiology is unknown, biological, anatomical, genetic, environmental and cultural factors have been suggested to contribute to gender variation. In XY animals, it has been shown that environmental endocrine disruptors, through their anti-androgenic activity, induce a female identity. In this work, we described four XY individuals who were exposed in utero to the xenoestrogen diethylstilbesterol (DES) and were part of the French HHORAGES cohort. They all reported a female transgender identity starting from childhood and adolescence. This high prevalence of male to female transgenderism (1.58%) in our cohort of 253 DES sons suggests that exposure to chemicals with xenoestrogen activity during fetal life may affect the male sex identity and behavior.
Keywords: sexual identity; diethylstilbestrol (DES); prenatal exposure
1. Introduction
Gender identity defines each individual’s deeply held personal sense of their own gender as male or female or something else [1]. Moreover, gender diversity and variance are umbrella terms used to describe the wide range of gender identifications outside the conventional gender categories [2]. Gender dysphoria [3] relates to the distress and unease experienced by individuals who are discontent with their assigned gender and identify with a gender other than the one associated with their birth sex [4]. A transgender man or woman is a person born phenotypically female or male, assigned female or male at birth on the basis of their external or internal genitalia, who identifies and lives as a male or a female. Actually, for many experts [5] this definition should be enlarged to Transgender and Gender Non-Conforming (TGNC) individuals, people with disorders of sex development (DSDs) and people assigned male (AMAB) or female at birth (AFAB) [6].
All studies on secular trends have reported a dramatic increase in the number of transgender people in recent decades [7]. A temporal change in the age of presentation is another notable phenomenon [8]. Quoting Hassler et al. [8] in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, Fifth Edition, Text Revision (DSM-5), signs of transgender in children include: “A repeated desire to be the other sex or an assertion that they are the other sex; a belief that their assigned sex will change on its own (e.g., thinking they will grow a penis or that their penis will come off when they get older); wanting to change their name to a name typically associated with another gender, or a gender-neutral name; a preference for presenting as another gender (e.g., a child assigned male at birth who prefers long hair and wearing dresses, or a child assigned female at birth who prefers short hair and wearing gender-neutral clothing); resistance or distress when made to present as a gender they do not identify with (such as a ‘girl’ throwing a tantrum over having to wear a dress or a ‘boy’ crying after having to get a haircut); assuming the role of another gender in fantasy games or make-believe; an intense desire to participate in the games and activities typical of the other gender (such as an assigned-male child playing with Barbie and an assigned-female child playing contact sports); a preference for playmates of another gender”.
Hassler et al. also wrote [8]: “In adolescence, signs of transgender includes: feelings of panic or severe discomfort concerning puberty and body changes (e.g., refusing to acknowledge or admit that changes are occurring, refusing to look at their body, or becoming distressed or uncomfortable with body development, menstruation, or ejaculation); discomfort or distress with certain forms of gender presentation, such as disliking long hair or certain types of clothing; increased bullying at school due to differences in acting out one’s perceived gender or lack of self-confidence; isolation from peers due to lack of connection or fear of bullying; depression and/or anxiety as a result of confusion over gender identity or not fitting in with peers; be aware that some adolescents may try to repress their true gender due to outside pressure, such as from family and peers, even if they previously expressed their true gender as a child”.
The literature on the prevalence of transgender people is heterogeneous, depending on the geographic area, inclusion criteria and age at presentation [9]. Specialized centers that manage transgender people estimate a prevalence between 17 and 33/100,000 individuals [10]. Actually, people who identify as transgender represent a sizable proportion of the general population, from 0.1% to 2% [11,12].
Although the biological basis of transgenderism/incongruence is unknown, biological, anatomical, genetic and environmental factors have been suggested to contribute to gender identity [13,14]. The role of sex hormones and genetics in sexual development was described by studies published between 1948 and 2019, and the implication of endogenous steroids in brain sexual differentiation has been widely studied [14,15,16,17,18]. According to the accepted dogma, high levels of fetal testosterone organize the brain towards a male phenotype [19]. Any exogenous chemical that can reduce testosterone action during fetal life can affect the differentiation of genitalia and sex behavior.
Diethylstilbestrol (DES) is a molecule that has strengthened the concepts of endocrine-disrupting chemicals (EDCs) and the fetal basis of adult diseases [20]. It is well known that in utero exposure to DES, a compound with estrogenic and anti-androgenic activity, induces a wide range of reproductive tract/function abnormalities in the so-called ‘DES daughters’, e.g., alterations to MĂŒllerian duct development, fertility problems, ectopic pregnancies, miscarriages, premature births and cancers, especially clear cell adenocarcinoma (CCA) of the vagina and cervix in girls and young women [21]. In ‘DES sons’, epididymal cysts, hypospadias, cryptorchidism, hypoplastic testes and micropenises have been observed [22,23,24,25,26]. In addition, although less studied, in utero exposure to synthetic sex hormones, particularly DES, can cause psychological disorders, such as schizophrenia, bipolar disorders, eating disorders and suicidal behavior [27]. Interestingly, some studies in patients exposed in utero to DES with psychotic disorders identified methylome changes that affect the expression of ZFP57 and ADAMTS9, two genes implicated in neurodevelopment regulation [28], with potential multigenerational and transgenerational effects [29,30].
In this work, we first describe four transgender women identified among the 253 sons exposed in utero to DES included in the HHORAGES-France cohort (a French National patient association). This high prevalence of male-to-female transgender individuals among DES sons (1.58%) strongly suggests that exposure of male fetuses to this xenoestrogen during fetal life may affect future male sex identity and behavior.
2. Patients and Methods
This study was based on a French national retrospective cohort of DES-treated women (HHORAGES-France Association) (n = 1200) and their families. Detailed standard questionnaires were obtained from all DES mothers when they joined the HHORAGES-France Association and all DES children were already adults at this time. The answers to this online questionnaire were used to select women who met the following inclusion criteria: (1) at least two pregnancies with two viable male babies (same father) among whom the first child was not exposed in utero to DES (pre-DES), followed by one or more children with fetal exposure to DES (DES); (2) confirmed data on the total DES dose (health record or physician’s observation). The cumulative dose D administered to the French pregnant mothers was 4050 mg < D < 7300 mg. This is considered a medium-low-dose cohort, in accordance with the observations by Tournaire et al. [31] and compared with the higher doses administered in the United States (7550 mg < D < 12,742 mg). The answers to the questionnaires were also used to identify women with a DES son who presented female gender variance. We then contacted all DES sons with female gender variance and we carried out an individual interview with them.
The local university hospital ethics committee approved this study (ID IRB No. 202301531), and all patients gave their informed consent through the HHORAGES-France Association (CNIL: J B/EM/DC042793, N° 1006460).
All DES sons who identified as transgender women underwent karyotyping at their local hospital at the moment of transition.
2.1. Patient 1 (M.) (Table 1, First Column)
Table 1. Clinical features of our four patients with female gender variance, from childhood to adulthood.
Currently a writer and photographer, M. was born in 1961 after in utero exposure to DES given to their mother following a previous miscarriage. At birth, M. had male genitalia and unilateral cryptorchidism. At the age of 4 years, M. started to present gender dysphoria that became clear at the age of 9 years (Table 1, first column). During adolescence, M. expressed the conviction of being a woman. This period was also characterized by important school absenteeism and poor academic performance. In adult life, M. presented severe psychological disorders, particularly a severe self-mutilation episode (external genitalia) at the age of 43 years (2004), with a major, life-threatening hemorrhage. After seeing a psychiatrist, M. began the transition with male to female gender reassignment surgery in France, after the agreement of the French court of first instance. Since this operation, she has been receiving Gender-Affirming Hormone Therapy (GAHT) and she is regularly followed as part of GAHT management.
2.2. Patient 2 (S.) (Table 1, Second Column)
Currently a composer (guitar and vocals), S. was born in 1969 after in utero exposure to DES. At birth, S. had male genitalia with unilateral cryptorchidism. S. started to question the assigned male gender at the age of 4 years: “I remember very clearly that when I was 3–4 years old, one day I went with my mother to a hairdressing salon and having looked at all the ladies, I thought: ‘When I grow up this is what I will do: I will be a woman’”.
During adolescence, S. felt he was a woman and had severe psychological disorders, particularly depression and suicidal ideation (Table 1, second column). As an adult, S. married and had two children. These two girls had prolactinoma, and one has Asperger’s syndrome, androgyny and ovarian cysts. S. began the transition with male to female gender reassignment surgery, in Brighton, United Kingdom (UK), in November 2015. Since then, S. has been receiving GAHT and is followed by the doctor who managed the transition. According to the UK Gender Recognition Act, S. could change their sex recorded on their birth certificate (male to female) and now, she lives in Scotland. Her elder sister, also exposed to DES in utero after her mother’s miscarriage, died due to vaginal adenocarcinoma during adolescence.
2.3. Patient 3 (Chr.) (Table 1, Third Column)
Currently a ULM pilot teacher, Chr. was born in 1963 after in utero exposure to DES and slow-release progestin. At birth, Chr. had male genitalia without any genital malformation and spina bifida. Chr. reported gender dysphoria at the age of 7 years (see Table 1, third column). During adolescence, Chr. had psychological disorders and enuresis up to the age of 16 years. At the age of 22 years, Chr. married and had one son at the age of 23 years. From the age of 30 years, Chr. regularly dressed as a female and finally divorced after 20 years of married life. Chr. began the transition with male to female gender reassignment surgery performed in Thailand, in 2003, at the age of 40 years. Since this operation, she has been receiving GAHT. She lives in a couple with her former female partner and the French court of first instance of her department recognized her identity change on June 2006, at the age of 43 years.
2.4. Patient 4 (J.) (Table 1, Fourth Column)
J. was born in May 1953 in the USA (Kansas, Mid-West) after in utero exposure to DES. At birth, J. had normal male genitalia and no malformation. Gender dysphoria began at about 3–4 years of age. During childhood, J. always liked to wear his sister’s clothing, including panties, slips and dresses (Table 1, fourth column). J. had no girlfriend at the age of 16 years, and later, fantasized to be Annette Funicello, a very feminine movie star. During adolescence, J. always fantasized by looking at women’s apparel and dreamt of wearing all the items featured in catalogues, especially panties and lingerie, and often dressed as a woman. Once an adult, J. married, “But still society pushed me into marriage which is where I am now, taking cross-sex hormones to become a girl!”. Indeed, from 1997, J. has been taking estradiol to change sex, but did not undergo gender reassignment surgery.
3. Results
In this French national retrospective cohort of DES-treated women (i.e., DES mothers; n = 1200) and their families, 253 boys who were exposed in utero to DES (DES sons) and 148 pre-DES sons were identified. The flowchart showing the included and excluded patients is shown in Figure 1. Four of these DES sons identified themselves as transgender women (transgender prevalence =1.58%) versus zero among the pre-DES sons (0%). The prevalence difference was not significant (p-value = 0.30), probably because of the small sample size. The DES doses were documented for all 253 DES sons.

Figure 1. Included and excluded patients of the HHORAGES-France cohort in which four transgender M/Fs were identified. (HHORAGES-France data.) E2 is the synthetic hormone 17-α-estradiol that was often administered in a cocktail with DES and synthetic progesterone during pregnancy, but was banned for pregnant women in Europe in 1980.
In these four DES sons who identified themselves as transgender women, karyotyping did not reveal any abnormality. Major transgender components and behaviors were present already in early childhood and adolescence, as described in the previous section and summarized in Table 1.
4. Discussion
The number of patients seeking gender-specific healthcare has drastically increased (30–40-fold) in the last three decades [32]. In a recent European study, 0.7–1% of the general population reported incongruent gender identity [33]. However, several reports highlighted the important heterogeneity in the published estimates across studies. Moreover, the definition of transgender is often expanded to include broader manifestations of gender diversity. However, non-binary people should not be included in this wide definition. If we consider the highest prevalence of transgender women reported in the literature (1/17,000) [10], the prevalence we observed in our study (1.58%) is 10- to 100-fold higher. Moreover, the prevalence of female transgender identity was 0% among the 148 elder non-exposed sons (AMAB) in the same informative families.
It is generally accepted that fetal androgens play a crucial role in male brain differentiation by directly activating neuronal regions to provide organizational changes. In male individuals, gender identity, gender behavior and sex orientation are driven by prenatal androgen action [34]. Basic gender identity is developed at the age of 2–3 years [35]. By this age, most children have become aware of gender stereotypes, for instance, through toy preference and clothing. It is interesting to note that in our four patients, most diagnostic signs of transgenderism were present early in life and persisted during adolescence and adult life. In addition, mental health disorders, particularly depression, anxiety and suicidal ideation, have frequently been reported by DES children [27,36] and also by our four patients, starting from early adolescence and then in adulthood. Moreover, in many countries, transgender people live at the margin of society, and despite a higher educational level, they have a lower socio-economic status.
Although research in the transgender field is increasing, the causal mechanisms have not been adequately identified yet [13,37]. Genetic [38,39], biological [1,4], anatomical [40,41] and environmental factors [42,43] have mainly been studied. A greater chance of transgender concordance among XY monozygotic tweens than dizygotic tweens [44] supports a genetic component. A significant association between female transgenderism and over-represented alleles and genotypes (estrogen receptor α, ERα; androgen receptor, AR; Steroid 5 Alpha-Reductase 2, SRD5A2; cytochrome 17, CYP17) has been identified by Foreman et al. [38]. These authors suggested that gender dysphoria may have a polygenetic basis that may alter the masculinization of the fetal brain, contributing to the development of a female transgender identity. Moreover, the second-to-fourth digit length ratio (2D:4D), a proxy of prenatal androgen activity, was recently found to be higher, i.e., feminized, in female transgender persons. This finding reinforces the role of reduced prenatal androgen activity in female transgenderism. Unfortunately, we could not scan the left hand of our patients [45]. The primacy of testosterone [19] activity during fetal life is a critical driver of brain androgenization and the subsequent male sex identity and behavior [39,40].
In many animal studies, EDC exposure during development has been associated with changes in sex behavior, such as disruption of the normal social preference behavior (rats) and alteration of the differentiation of relevant sexually dimorphic pathways (mouse, Japanese quail) [42,43]. The most convincing evidence linking testosterone to the establishment of the male gender identity comes from individuals with DSDs, such as XY complete androgen insensitivity syndrome [45], XY 5 alpha reductase deficiency [46] and XX congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH) [47]. For example, individuals with 5 alpha reductase deficiency are usually reared as girls on the basis of their female external genitalia [47]. They change the initial gender assignment during puberty, when testosterone concentration increase can organize the brain structures and influence the adolescent gender identity and behavior. XX fetuses with CAH and exposed to a high testosterone level during prenatal life present a high risk of gender incongruence. The transgender prevalence among individuals with DSDs is much higher than in the general population, although there are substantial differences among DSD etiologies. In a European collaborative work from the DSD Life Study, 4% of the 1040 participants with DSDs reported gender variance [48]. In our four patients, no DSD was diagnosed at birth. Patients 1 and 2 presented unilateral cryptorchidism, which cannot be considered a clinical expression of a DSD on its own, but is a minor effect of in utero exposure to DES. The XY DSD related to insufficient or deficient androgen production or activity during fetal life contributes to the low male sex differentiation of the brain [34]. This will lead to disorders of male gender identity, male behavior and male sexual orientation. Therefore, fetal exposure to any chemicals that can reduce androgen production or action should be considered a transgender risk factor [17]. In 1991, Renish et al. reported that male patients exposed in utero to DES appeared to be feminized [49].
In 2005 and 2020, Kerlin et al. conducted a 5-year qualitative study of DES sons via the Association DES-Sons USA and analyzed a sample of 500 men with confirmed DES exposure. In total, 90 individuals with verified DES exposure identified as transsexual, transgender or gender dysphoric (personal data). In addition, 65 individuals with strongly suspected but not confirmed DES exposure also defined themselves as “transsexual, transgender or gender dysphoric”. Kerlin et al. carried out extensive surveys and interviews with several of them for more than 15 years that enabled a stronger verification of the full scope of DES-related effects (personal data).
Based on a study by Tournaire et al. [21,31], the DES doses administered in France (4050 mg < D < 7300 mg) were lower than those administered in the United States (7550 mg < D < 12,742 mg; doses varied in the different states). These authors investigated DES’s role in clear cell carcinoma development in DES daughters in France and proposed that early fetal exposure (administration beginning during the first trimester of pregnancy which represents most cases) is more important than the dose. We think that this hypothesis is valid also for our DES sons.
Conversely, Titus et al. [50] evaluated a cohort of 2694 DES sons and found little support to the hypothesis that prenatal exposure to DES influences the psychosexual characteristics of adult men. Troisi et al. [51], in a group of 1848 DES sons, reported an odds ratio of 1.4 of having a gay identity or bisexual identity (five of these individuals were transgender women). Similarly, our finding of four transgender women among 253 XY patients who were exposed to DES in utero (1.58%), a much higher rate than in the general population and probably underestimated because no epidemiological investigation has been carried out on this topic, strongly suggests that DES plays a role in male to female transgender development. DES displays antiandrogenic activity in all assays used [52]. Northern blotting and RT-PCR showed a significant downregulation of androgen responsive genes upon exposure to DES [53]. As a xenoestrogen, DES can also stimulate production of sex hormone-binding globulin (SHBG), the major androgen-binding protein in serum that reduces androgen’s ability to enter into the cell [54]. By reducing androgen production, bioactivity and action in target cells, DES must be considered an anti-androgen substance that can alter male sex differentiation of the brain and/or sex differentiation of the internal/external genitalia.
Differences in sex behavior may have correspondence in the brain architecture. Several studies reported an association between brain structure [15,55,56,57] and gender identity. Zhou et al. [58] first showed by brain imaging that the bed nucleus striae terminalis volume differs in men and women, and this is similar in transgender women and women. Garçia-Falgueras et al. [59], using brain imaging, found that the interstitial nucleus of the anterior hypothalamus volume is different between males and females and that its volume in transgender women is within the female range. Luders et al. reported regional gray matter variations in male-to-female transsexualism [55]. Lastly, Mueller et al. analyzed magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) data from transgender men and women and cisgender men and women. Based on their findings, they suggested that transgender persons present a specific brain phenotype [56]. Unfortunately, no MRI data were available for our four patients.
In conclusion, the presented clinical data from our DES cohort, experimental works and the endocrine consequences of environmental disruptors suggest for the first time that male to female transgenderism in DES sons is associated with DES exposure and is not a coincidental finding.

In Revelation 17, the "licentious" behavior of the great prostitute (Babylon) symbolizes spiritual infidelity, idolatry, and global corruption rather than just literal sexual immorality. She is depicted as drunk on the blood of saints and seducing world leaders to partake in her sins, representing a false religious system that brings the world into a state of intoxication with her errors.

Dear Mr. Dunn:
On behalf of the Court, I would like to take this opportunity to express my sincere appreciation for your service as a juror in State of Nevada v. Ryan Joe Coddington. Your conscientious consideration of the challenging and sensitive issues presented to you in this case proves that our Constitutional system of trial by our peers works to ensure fair and unbiased decisions are handed out of our courts.
Abraham Lincoln once said that "A jury is the common sense of a common people." The only way we have justice is through the judicial system in the United States. Justice really means fairness. It means that if you're charged with a crime, you can appear in front of a jury of your peers who will judge the facts fairly as a citizen of this State. A jury of your peers means a mix of people from all walks of life using their common sense to do justice. It is one of the most important civic responsibilities of being a United States Citizen.
I appreciate the fact that you responded to your summons as a juror willing to do your job. Our judicial system only works because citizens like you are interested, concerned and willing to make whatever arrangements are necessary in their personal lives to be able to perform this invaluable service. Your presence on the jury was a great asset in this case.
Once again, I would like to thank you on behalf of the Court and the people of Lyon County for your willingness to serve as a juror and to give so freely of your time and abilities. I admire you for your commitment to this case.
With great respect,
Honorable John P. Schlegelmilch District Court Judge

The number 3:33 symbolizes divine completeness, the Holy Trinity, and spiritual communication, while John 3:33 emphasizes affirming God’s truth.
Biblical Verse: John 3:33
John 3:33 states: “He that hath received His testimony hath set his seal to this: that God is true”. This verse highlights the importance of accepting and affirming God’s testimony, acknowledging His truth, and recognizing that God cannot lie. It underscores the believer’s role in confirming divine truth and trusting in the authority of God’s Word. This verse is often interpreted as a call to faith and spiritual discernment.
Bible Gateway
Symbolic Meaning of 3:33
In biblical numerology, the number three represents completeness, divine presence, and the Holy Trinity—Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. The repetition of three, as in 3:33, amplifies this significance, symbolizing spiritual wholeness, divine guidance, and heightened attention to God’s messages. Multiple threes appear throughout scripture, such as in God’s covenant with Abraham, the Promised Land, and Jesus’ resurrection after three days, emphasizing God’s plan and fulfillment of promises.

Calculating the Mark of the Beast 666
August 1, 2011
Honest Question: What does 2 divided by 3 equal? Give me your answer in percentage (means you’ll have to move the decimal). Only use 3 digits for your answer & don’t round up. I will show you later what I mean. So, answer the question: 2/3 = ?
Congratulations! If you got 66.6%, You just calculated the mark of the beast 666 just as you suspected. For those who added a 7 in their number… No, there’s no 7 in the number! You probably put a 7 because your calculators cannot calculate the number into infinity (another word for eternity) for which it goes. If it did, there would never be a 7. All 6’s. It does not round up. So you ask, why did I only use 3 digits?? I use my very last paragraph to explain why I say to only use 3 digits because I figured you all want me to get straight to the point of this calculation, right? Ok, so how did 2 divided by 3 come about?
Ok here goes… This is long because it has the scriptures. We have the number Three (3). First off, there is a pie three-thirds (3/3). That is a whole. That is the circle, which is the world. And the world is set to be DIVIDED. God’s portion is one-third (1/3), and the Devil’s portion is two-thirds (2/3). How can this be? Well, don’t take my word for it, let’s see what it says in the scripture!! First of all, before I get to explaining the numbers, remember the Parable of the Wheat and the Tares in Matthew 13? It says: “The field is the world [three-thirds], the good seeds are the SONS OF THE KINGDOM [God’s one-third], but the tares are the SONS OF THE WICKED ONE [the Devil’s two-thirds]. The enemy who sowed them is the DEVIL, the harvest is the end of the age, and the reapers are the angels. Therefore as the tares are gathered and burned in the fire [cut-off], so it will be at the end of this age.” Matthew 13:38-40 And we know that one who sows can only reap what he has sown. “Do not be deceived, God is not mocked; for whatever a man sows, that he will also reap.” Galatians 6:7 So, because God is not a liar and this is His Word, He too can only reap what He sowed. He sowed one-third, so that is His portion that He will reap.
How do I know God only sowed one-third? See the scriptures: “And it shall come to pass in all the land,” Says the LORD, “That TWO-THIRDS in it shall be cut off and die [the devil’s portion], but ONE-THIRD shall be left in it [the Lord’s portion]: I will bring the ONE-THIRD through the fire [this is Jesus’ baptism of fire], will refine them as silver is refined, and test them as gold is tested. They will call on My name, and I will answer them. I will say, ‘This is My people’; And each one will say, ‘The LORD is my God.’” Zechariah 13:8-9 Jesus will indeed baptize us with fire according to Matthew 3:11 and Luke 3:16, so the baptism of fire in the scripture above mimics what is said in 1 Corinthians 3:9-17 (which mentions our works being tested in the fire, yet we will be saved) AND Malachi 3:1-3 (which mentions Jesus as the Refiner’s Fire and purifier of silver).
And here is another Scripture: “You shall also take A SMALL NUMBER OF THEM [one-third] and bind them in the edge of your garment. Then take some of them again and throw them into the midst of the fire, and burn them in the fire. From there a fire will go out into all the house of Israel.” Ezekiel 5:3-4 And that same scripture continues, this time mentioning all three-thirds: “ONE-THIRD of you shall die of the pestilence, and be consumed with famine in your midst [the unbelievers, one-third of the devil’s two-thirds]; and ONE-THIRD shall fall by the sword all around you [Lukewarm believers, the other one-third of the devil’s two-thirds]; and I will scatter ANOTHER THIRD to all the WINDS [God’s one-third], and I will draw out a SWORD after them.” Ezekiel 5:12 This scripture just showed the entire pie of three thirds (3/3). Why will God draw out the sword after them? Knowing that the Word of God is Jesus (Revelation 19:13) in the flesh (John 1:14), and the Word is the sword (Hebrews 4:12), there’s a scripture that says: “And take the helmet of salvation, and the SWORD of the Spirit, WHICH IS THE WORD OF GOD.” Ephesians 6:17 Ok, so how do I know the one-third that God will scatter to all the WINDS is God’s one-third? Because God’s one-third is all of those who are sealed by Him with His Holy Spirit, and the Scripture compares those with the Spirit as being like that of the WIND. See the scripture: “The WIND BLOWS where it wishes, and you hear the sound of it, but cannot tell where it comes from and where it goes. So is everyone who is born of the Spirit.” John 3:8 Another scripture: “When the Day of Pentecost had fully come, they were all with one accord in one place. And suddenly there came a sound from heaven, as of a rushing MIGHTY WIND, and it filled the whole house where they were sitting. Then there appeared to them divided tongues, AS OF FIRE, and one sat upon each of them. AND THEY WERE ALL FILLED WITH THE HOLY SPIRIT and began to speak with other tongues, as the Spirit gave them utterance.” Acts 2:1-4
Here is another Scripture regarding the number of people: “When the Most High DIVIDED their inheritance to the nations, WHEN HE SEPARATED THE SONS OF ADAM [the Devil’s two-thirds], He set the boundaries of the peoples, according to the NUMBER of the children of Israel. FOR THE LORD’S PORTION IS HIS PEOPLE [the Lord’s one-third]; Jacob [his name was changed to Israel] is the place of His inheritance.” Deuteronomy 32:8-9 There is something about this division here. Do you see how the math is calling to be DIVIDED? Let me show you in Scripture why that is: “Do you suppose that I came to give peace on earth? I tell you, not at all, but rather DIVISION. For from now on five in one house will be DIVIDED: THREE AGAINST TWO, AND TWO AGAINST THREE.” Luke 12:51-52 Jesus has come to DIVIDE. Notice what specifically Jesus is dividing!! TWO-THIRDS!!! 2 divided by 3 = 66.6% Yeah, but… How are they divided? I will show you how using scripture. See this scripture: “Since it is a righteous thing with God to repay with tribulation those who trouble you, and to give YOU WHO ARE TROUBLED [God’s one-third] rest with us when the Lord Jesus is revealed from heaven with His mighty angels, in flaming fire taking vengeance on THOSE WHO DO NOT KNOW GOD [these are the unbelievers and they are one-third of the devil’s two-thirds], and on THOSE WHO DO NOT OBEY THE GOSPEL OF OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST [these are the Lukewarm believer who will say Lord-Lord, the other one-third of the devil’s two-thirds, who know God’s Word/Jesus, but do not obey it by living according to the Spirit]. These [two-thirds -the devil’s portion] shall be punished with everlasting destruction from the presence of the Lord and from the glory of His power, when He comes, in that Day, to be glorified in His saints and to be admired among all those who believe [God’s one-third], because our testimony among you was believed.” 2 Thessalonians 1:6-10
Why did God sow less than the Devil? Why did the Devil sow more? Because God can do a lot with a few. It’s just like seeds (that’s why He only needs faith the size of a mustard seeds). God can plant a few seeds, and those seeds will grow fruit trees with hundreds of fruits on them, and those fruits will have seeds in them that can be planted in the ground to grow more trees & grow more fruit. God can multiply with just a few. It’s like math. If I plant 3 seeds, and they produce 3 trees (notice how I reaped what I sowed meaning 3 seeds reaped 3 trees). And say those 3 trees had on them 3 fruit each (3 x 3), then that is 9 fruit. Take the seeds from those 9 fruit and plant them in the ground, and they produce 9 more trees with 3 fruit each (9 x 3), then that is 27 fruit. God said in Genesis that this was good, and that everything He made like that, in a way that it could reproduce itself, (including food, animals, & man who can reproduce himself & make his own family tree), according to God was good! That is the basis of reaping and sowing seeds, remembering that it is God alone who gives the increase (1 Corinthians 3:6-7). Since only God can give the Increase, that means that only God can multiply. The Devil can’t multiply. So the only way he can get more is to sow more.
So, God sowed few (one-third), the devil sowed many (two-thirds). Now, here is an example in the Bible of God reaping FEW, and the devil reaping MANY: “Enter the narrow gate; for wide is the gate, and broad is the way that leads to destruction, and there are MANY who go in by it. Because narrow is the gate and difficult is the way which leads to life, and there are FEW who find it. Beware of false prophets, who come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly they are ravenous wolves.” Matthew 7:13-15 Notice how that scripture mentioned false prophets. That’s because God uses few prophets, while the devil uses many, and God wanted us to be aware that the devil has many! See the scripture: “Then Elijah said to the people, “I alone am left a prophet of the LORD; but Baal’s prophets are four hundred and fifty men.” 1 Kings 18:22 Ok, So… WHY DID GOD CHOOSE ONE-THIRD INSTEAD OF ANY OTHER FRACTION? WHY DID HE SOW ONLY ONE-THIRD? THE FEW? WHAT DO THE NUMBERS MEAN?… LOOK AT IT LIKE THIS… LOOK AT THE NUMBERS SEPARATELY… ONE… THIRD… BECAUSE THE THREE ARE ONE… FATHER, SON, HOLY SPIRIT. All who have the Holy Spirit become one with the Father and the Son. Scripture: “There is ONE BODY and ONE SPIRIT, just as you were called in ONE hope of your calling.” Ephesians 4:4 Scripture: “Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit.” Matthew 28:19 Scripture: “Jesus answered and said to him, “If anyone loves Me, he will keep My word; and My Father will love him, and We will come to him AND MAKE OUR HOME WITH HIM [become one with him].” John 14:23 Scripture: “But when the Helper comes, whom I shall send to you from the Father, the Spirit of truth [Holy Spirit] who proceeds from the Father, He will testify of Me. And you also will bear witness, because you have been with Me from the beginning.” John 15:26-27 Scripture: “Therefore let that [the Holy Spirit] abide in you which you heard from the beginning. If what you heard from the beginning abides in you, you also will abide in the Son and in the Father.” 1 John 2:24 To abide means to dwell in & be ONE with the Father & the Son, which is why Jesus says They’ll make Their Home with those who let the Holy Spirit abide in them. And He says we’ve been with Him from the beginning because it’s the Holy Spirit in us that’s been with Him from the beginning. And the Holy Spirit is our seal, which is how Jesus will be able to identify us as God’s one-third. Scripture: “Now He who establishes us with you in Christ and has ANOINTED US is God, who also has SEALED US and given us the Spirit in our hearts as a GUARANTEE [only if we continue to walk in the Spirit].” 2 Corinthians 1:21-22 Scripture: “In Him you also trusted, after you heard the WORD OF TRUTH [Sword], the gospel of your salvation; in whom also, having believed, you were sealed with the Holy Spirit of promise, who is the GUARANTEE of our inheritance until the redemption of the purchased possession, to the praise of His glory.” Ephesians 1:13-15 Scripture: “Now He who has prepared us for this very thing is God, who also has given us the Spirit as a GUARANTEE.” 2 Corinthians 5:5 Scripture: “It is the Spirit who GIVES LIFE; the flesh profits nothing. The WORDS that I speak to you are SPIRIT, AND THEY ARE LIFE.” John 6:63 Scripture: “And if Christ is in you, the body is dead because of sin, but THE SPIRIT IS LIFE because of righteousness.” Romans 8:10
So, why does the Devil have two-thirds? Other than the obvious, which is if the whole pie is three-thirds (3/3), and God has one-third (1/3), then the Devil has that which remains, two-thirds (2/3). But let’s explain it beyond the obvious… Again, look at the numbers. The Devil has TWO… THIRDS…because the THREE (which includes the Beast from the Sea/Anti-Christ, the Beast from the Earth/False Prophet, and the Dragon/The Accuser) ARE TWO (the 2 Beasts in Revelation 13)… because the Devil works through the TWO to deceive the 66.6% (the Many), to believe their lies & accept their testimony of the false 2 or 3 witnesses. So, for the Devil, the THREE are indeed TWO. And remember this scripture: “One witness shall not rise against a man concerning any iniquity or any sin that he commits; by the mouth of two or three witnesses the matter shall be established.” Deuteronomy 19:15 Well The Devil is the accuser, He’s been accusing us from the beginning. (& Just like Jesus said, 3 against 2, and 2 against 3, so the devil is)… He is 3 in 2. He had 2 or 3 witnesses against us when He accused us of sin in front of God (according to Revelation 12:10). But the problem is, they were false accusations with false witnesses. He’s been false witnessing through his false prophets, the 2 beasts, and deceiving the world to believe his testimony like a defense lawyer who uses lies to defend a man he knows is guilty. & those who believe his lies become anti-christs like him: “Little children, it is the last hour; and as you have heard that the Antichrist is coming, even now MANY antichrists have come, by which we know that it is the last hour.” 1 John 2:18
The Devil uses his 66.6% of the population to be of one mind with their father the devil, and become ONE BODY (a movement as in a body of people) with the Anti-Christ (false witness), and accuse God’s children, through their reproach of them… reproach being defined as “to disgrace or shame, to express criticism towards.” See the scripture: “For the mouth of the wicked and the mouth of the deceitful have opened against me; They have spoken against me WITH A LYING TONGUE. They have also surrounded me with words of hatred, and fought against me without a cause. In return for my love they are my ACCUSERS, But I give myself to prayer. Thus they have rewarded me evil for good, And hatred for my love. Set a wicked man over him, and let an accuser stand at his right hand. When he is judged, let him be found guilty, and let his prayer become sin.” Psalm 109:2-7 And if you continue reading Psalm 109, it will show that they will be cut-off. The Dragon who is also known as the Accuser, his TWO beasts are false witnesses. Therefore, THE ACCUSER + THE 2 FALSE WITNESSES = 2 or 3. Two-thirds or 66.6%. And that’s how MANY people they will deceive… 66.6% of the world. Scripture: “He causes all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and slave, to receive a mark on their right hand or on their foreheads, and that no one may buy or sell except one who has the mark or the name of the beast, or the number of his name. Here is wisdom. LET HIM WHO HAS UNDERSTANDING CALCULATE THE NUMBER OF THE BEAST, FOR IT IS THE NUMBER OF A MAN: His number is 666.” Revelation 13:16-18
Ok, so the scripture said to CALCULATE THE NUMBER. So now, let’s do the math. Let’s start off with God. God has ONE-THIRD: 1 divided by 3 is .33333. But the Devil has TWO THIRDS: 2 divided by 3 is .666666. This makes a total of THREE-THIRDS. The number would stop at 3 digits because 3 is a whole, a solid figure, a body, which I explain what that means the last paragraph. God’s 3 (.333) is His Holy Trinity for which there are 3: Father, Son, & Holy Spirit. All of those who have the Holy Spirit (33.3%) will belong to the population of New Jerusalem (Holy City / Kingdom of God). The Devil’s 3 digits (calculated from his two-thirds) is .666. That is the number of the Beast 666, and his population (66.6%) will be damned to the Lake of Fire. See the Scripture: “Then A THIRD ANGEL [notice how it is a third angel, God used the 3RD because it mimics His one-third] followed them, saying with a loud voice, ‘If anyone worships the beast and his image, AND RECEIVES HIS MARK ON HIS FOREHEAD OR ON HIS HAND, he himself shall also drink of the wine of the wrath of God, which is poured out full strength into the cup of His indignation. He shall be tormented with fire and brimstone in the presence of the holy angels and in the presence of the Lamb. And the smoke of their torment ascends forever and ever; and they have no rest day or night, who worship the beast and his image, AND WHOEVER RECEIVES THE MARK OF HIS NAME.’” Revelation 14:9-11 FYI, it says they will have no rest day nor night because along with their father the devil accused God’s children day & night according to Revelation 12:10. The Bible did indeed say to calculate the number, and that is the calculation. 2 divided by 3 = 666 or 66.6%. It will also be the name of a man (the Man of Sin in 2 Thessalonians 2), which is the Beast of the EARTH in Revelation 13 that is a man (human). Everyone who belongs to him, the devil’s two-thirds, will have his name/his mark on them, and all of them (the number of them) will make up two-thirds of mankind. Two-thirds of mankind 66.6% will have this mark because two-thirds belong to the devil. The devil needs to mark those who belong to him in order to seal them, just as God seals all of His children (His one-third) with His Holy Spirit in the 7th seal of Revelation. That’s why in Revelation 8, Notice how even in the first 4 trumpets, everything that was struck, from ONE-THIRD of vegetation (1st trumpet), to ONE-THIRD of the seas (2nd trumpet), to ONE-THIRD of the waters (3rd trumpet), to ONE-THIRD of the heavens (4th trumpet), to ONE-THIRD of man-kind (6th trumpet)… all was ONE-THIRD of each… Amazing how it came as a result of the prayers of the saints in verse 4 of Revelation 8, who just so happen to be God’s portion of ONE-THIRD, which is exactly who God takes at His 7th Trumpet sound, HIS ONE-THIRD!!! So this confirms, that what remains to receive the bowls of God’s wrath are indeed the devil’s two-thirds of 66.6%, which is his number 666!
The number 3. So why did I say to only use 3 digits? Other than the obvious reasons I stated above about God having 3 (Father, Son, Holy Spirit), and the Devil using 3 to mimic God in order to exalt himself above God, let’s go beyond the obvious. To see why I say to only use 3 digits, you must first understand the meaning of the number 3. Two straight lines cannot possibly enclose any space, or form a plane figure; neither can two plane surfaces form a solid. Three lines are necessary to form a plane figure; and three dimensions of length, breadth, and height, are necessary to form a solid. Hence three is the symbol of the cube–the simplest form of solid figure. Also note: a solid figure is a body or movement (body of people). And the Bible says many times that Jesus is Head of the BODY (God Head) and the church are the members of the BODY, and this body (the BODY of Christ) is the Kingdom of God (Colossians 1:12-18 and Luke 17:21). The number, Three, therefore, stands for that which is solid, real, substantial, complete, and entire. All things that are especially complete are stamped with this number three. There are three great divisions completing time: past, present, and future. Three persons, in grammar, express and include all the relationships of mankind. Thought, word, and deed, complete the sum of human capability. The simplest proposition requires three things to complete it: the subject, the predicate, and the copula. Three propositions are necessary to complete the simplest form of argument: the major premise, the minor, and the conclusion. Three kingdoms embrace our ideas of matter: mineral, vegetable, and animal. When we turn to the Scriptures, this completion becomes Divine, and marks Divine completeness or perfection. God is comprised of three: Father, Son, & Holy Spirit (Matthew 28:19). God is the Creator of the Heavens, Earth, & Sea and everything in them (Acts 14:15). God is the God of Abraham, Isaac, & Jacob (Deuteronomy 30:20)… Ever wonder why He stopped at Jacob also known as Israel? Because it was whole at three. God is the first, the last, and the only God (Isaiah 44:6). God’s attributes are three: omniscient, omnipresent, and omnipotent. Three denotes divine perfection. Hence the number three points us to what is real, essential, perfect, substantial, complete, and Divine. So that’s what it is!

Seminary of St. John SĂ©minaire Syro-ChaldĂ©en St. Jean, MaÊżhad MÄr YƫងannÄ al-កabÄ«b
A prestigious Roman Catholic theological seminary in Mosul, Iraq, called SĂ©minaire Syro-ChaldĂ©en St. Jean in French. It was founded by the French Dominican Fathers in 1878, and though it was closed between the beginning of the First World War and 1923, it continued to serve the Chald. and Syr. Catholic churches until 1973, when it was shut down by the Iraqi authorities. It was divided into two main parts: Le Petit SĂ©minaire, a junior and senior high school which consisted of six years of studies after elementary school, where the study of French, Syriac, and Arabic language and literature was essential, and Le Grand SĂ©minaire, which consisted of two years of Philosophy and four years of Theology, including Biblical Studies. Throughout its history, the instruction in both parts of the Seminary was entirely in French, and its strength remained in the study of language and literature. Eminent scholars graduated from this institution, including 1. Awgen Manna (1866–1928) who published DalÄ«l al-rÄghibÄ«n fÄ« lughat al-ÄrÄmiyyÄ«n [Guide for the Students of the Aramaic Language] (Mosul, 1900), an excellent Syriac-Arabic dictionary; 2. the well-known Alphonse Mingana (1878–1937) who published among other things the Chronicle of Arbela (Mosul, 1907) and Clef de la langue aramĂ©enne (Mosul, 1905), a valuable Syriac grammar; and 3. Addai Scher (martyred in Turkey in 1915), a prolific writer who published the Histoire nestorienne inĂ©dite (Chronique de SĂ©ert). Most of the professors were French Dominicans, including the great Syriacist Fr. Jean-Maurice Fiey (1914–95), who was the Director of the Seminary for a short period before he was forced to leave Iraq in 1973. A few Seminary graduates became professors there, as in the case of Mingana in the 1900s, and in the 1950s and 1960s Fr. Albert AbĆ«nÄ, professor of Syriac, who published among other things the French translation of the second part of the Chronicle of 1234 (1974). Hundreds of Iraqi priests graduated from this Seminary, many becoming bishops and at least one, the Syr. Catholic Gabriel Tappuni (1879–1968), becoming patr. The Seminary published several internal journals, but the now rare Bulletin du SĂ©minaire Syro-ChaldĂ©en (1940s and 1950s) included scholarly papers on Syriac. In the more recent history of the Seminary, Fr. Joseph Omez (1902–74) was its director, and it was thanks to him that this institution was modernized and some 84 highly educated and multi-lingual priests graduated, some still serving the church of Iraq and elsewhere.

Cardinal Sako, head of Chaldean Church in Iraq, retires as war engulfs the region
Rome — March 11, 2026
The patriarch of one of the most important Christian churches in the Middle East retired on Tuesday, setting the stage for new leadership as war engulfs the region.
Iraqi Cardinal Louis Sako of the Chaldean Catholic Church said he had asked to retire to pursue "prayer, writing, and simple service," and that Pope Leo XIV granted his request on the day he had proposed.
Sako, 76, who had occasionally clashed with Iraq's political leaders, said in a statement that he freely offered his resignation and was leaving "of my own will."
The Chaldean Catholic Church is one of the nearly two dozen Eastern Rite churches that are in full communion with Rome. It is one of the four that claim links to the ancient Church of the East, located in Mesopotamia, and is today prevalent in Iraq, Iran and Lebanon, as well as in the diaspora.
Sako led the ancient church through the traumatic years of the rise of the Islamic State group in Iraq that devastated the Christian community. His retirement paves the way for a successor to lead the church at a time of new conflict in the region, the U.S.-Israeli war in Iran, that has spilled over into Iraq.
Iran-backed militias in Iraq have launched dozens of attacks targeting U.S. bases, energy facilities, and other targets in the country.
"I led the Chaldean Church under extremely difficult circumstances and amid great challenges. I preserved the unity of its institutions and spared no effort in defending it and the rights of Iraqis and Christians, taking positions and maintaining a presence both inside and outside the country," Sako said in a statement on the patriarch's website.
He said that "in these difficult times" he hoped that his successor will possess "solid theological culture, courage, and wisdom — someone who believes in renewal, openness, and dialogue, and who also has a sense of humor. I will respect him and never interfere in his work."
In July 2023, Sako withdrew from his headquarters in Baghdad and went into self-imposed exile in the Kurdish regional capital for nine months after Iraqi President Abdul Latif Rashid revoked a decree recognizing his position as patriarch of the Chaldeans.
The Iraqi president downplayed his revocation of Sako's recognition as bureaucratic housekeeping, claiming it did not diminish the patriarch's legal or religious status, but Sako called it an affront to the church.
At the time of his departure, Sako blamed a campaign against him by Rayan al-Kildani, a fellow Chaldean Christian who is head of the Bablyon Movement political party and founder of a militia called the Babylon Brigades that fought against IS and still patrols much of the Nineveh plains.
He returned to Baghdad in April 2024 after receiving a formal invitation from Iraqi Prime Minister Mohammed Shia al-Sudani.
Iraq's Christian population has dwindled after decades of war and the rise of extremist groups including the Islamic State in the security vacuum that followed the 2003 U.S.-led invasion to unseat the country's former strongman leader, Saddam Hussein.
The number of Christians in Iraq today is estimated at 150,000, compared with 1.5 million in 2003. Iraq's total population is more than 40 million.
A 2021 visit by Pope Francis, which Sako helped organize, provided a glimmer of hope that quickly faded. Many of the Christian villages destroyed as IS rampaged across the country remain in ruins, their former inhabitants scattered.
Sako told The Associated Press in an interview in 2023 that he saw it as part of his mandate to protect the rights of Christians.
"Of course, no one defends Christians other than the church," he said.

This retirement from Louis RAPHAEL Sako the Cardinal of Baghdad, this is an unjudicial sneak that more than likely is going to lay low for a while until 2028 and will be offered position as Pope at the Vatican, before the United States Presidential election in November 2028 and influenced by Jesuit Superior Jeffrey Burwell of Toronto Canada as of end of 2026-middle of 2027 the newly elected Jesuit Superior General of The Society of Jesus. Arturo Sosa was elected Superior General of the Society of Jesus in October 2016 one month before the election of Donald JOHN Trump as President of the United States.

VATICAN CITY (Reuters) - Spaniard Adolfo Nicolas was elected the Jesuits' "black pope", as the head of the largest and perhaps most influential, controversial and prestigious Catholic order is known, in a secret conclave on Saturday.
Nicolas, 71, has run Jesuit operations in east Asia and Oceania since 2004 and spent most of his career in the Far East after being ordained in Tokyo in 1967.

Benedict XVI returns to Vatican for first time since resignation
May 2, 2013 / 1:54 PM EDT / CBS/AP
VATICAN CITYEmeritus Pope Benedict XVI came home to the Vatican on Thursday for the first time since he resigned Feb. 28, beginning an unprecedented era for the Catholic Church of having a retired pontiff living alongside a reigning one.
Pope Francis welcomed Benedict outside his new retirement home — a converted monastery on the edge of the Vatican gardens — and the two immediately went into the adjoining chapel to pray together, the Vatican said.
The Vatican said Benedict, 86, was pleased to be back and that he would — as he himself has said — "dedicate himself to the service of the church with prayer." Francis, the statement said, welcomed him with "brotherly cordiality."
CBS News' Allen Pizzey noted at any other time in church history, the prospect of two popes in Vatican City at the same time would provoke fears of a schism and there are concerns about what influence his presence could have.
Just before Benedict abdicated the papal throne, he said he would "withdraw into prayer," and live out his remaining days "hidden from the world."
However Benedict's new home - in a restored convent behind St. Peter's Basilica - is a 15-minute stroll from the guest house Pope Francis has chosen in preference to the grandeur of the Apostolic Palace apartments.
When he left the Vatican in February, Benedict's staff bade him an emotional public farewell. His spectacular flight into exile was watched live by a worldwide audience.
Unlike that coverage, the Vatican provided no television images of his return Thursday.
The low-key return followed the remarkable yet somewhat alarming images transmitted on March 23 when Francis went to visit Benedict at the papal retreat in Castel Gandolfo, south of Rome, where Benedict was living. In that footage, Benedict appeared visibly more frail and thinner only three weeks after resigning.
Some Vatican officials questioned whether those images should have been released, given how frail Benedict appeared.
The Vatican spokesman, the Rev. Federico Lombardi, has acknowledged Benedict's post-retirement decline but has insisted the 86-year-old German isn't suffering from any specific ailment and is just old.

"He is a man who is not young: He is old and his strength is slowly ebbing," Lombardi said this week. "However, there is no special illness. He is an old man who is healthy."
Benedict chose to leave the Vatican immediately after his resignation to physically remove himself from the process of electing his successor and from Pope Francis' first weeks as pontiff.
His absence also gave workers time to finish up renovations on the monastery tucked behind St. Peter's Basilica that until last year housed groups of cloistered nuns who were invited for a few years at a time to live inside the Vatican to pray.
In the compact, four-story building, Benedict will live with his personal secretary, Monsignor Georg Gaenswein, and the four consecrated women who look after him, preparing his meals and tending to the household. The building also has a small library, a study and a guest room for when his brother, Monsignor Georg Ratzinger, comes to visit.
"It is certainly small but well-equipped," Lombardi said.
When Benedict announced his intention to resign — the first pontiff to do so in 600 years — questions immediately swirled about the implications of having two popes living alongside one another inside the Vatican.
Benedict fueled those concerns when he chose to be called "emeritus pope" and "Your Holiness" rather than "emeritus bishop of Rome." He also raised eyebrows when he chose to continue wearing the white cassock of the papacy.
Given the political intrigues that plague the Vatican, it wasn't much of a stretch of the imagination to wonder if some cardinals, bishops and monsignors — not to mention ordinary Catholics — might continue making Benedict their point of reference rather than the new pope.
But Benedict made clear on his final day as pope that he was renouncing the job and pledged his "unconditional reverence and obedience" to his then-unknown successor. It was a pledge he repeated in person on March 23 when Francis went to have lunch with him.
It was during that visit that the world saw how weak Benedict had become: Always a man with a purposeful walk, he shuffled tentatively that day, using his cane.
Francis, for his part, seems utterly unfazed by the novel situation. He has frequently invoked Benedict's name and work and has called him on a half-dozen occasions, making clear he has no intention of ignoring the fact that there's another pope still very much alive and now living on the other side of the garden.
Francis' gestures to Benedict during that March 23 visit were also remarkable: He refused to pray on the special papal kneeler in the small chapel of Castel Gandolfo, preferring to join Benedict on a kneeler in the pews, and referring to his predecessor as his "brother."
Now that they're neighbors, they might bump into one another on walks in the Vatican gardens or at the shrine to the Madonna, which is just a stone's throw from Benedict's new home.

Cardinal Sako Reinstated As Chaldean Patriarch in Iraq
By Posted June 12, 2024
By AFP (via AINA) –
Iraq’s prime minister reinstated Cardinal Louis Raphael Sako as the patriarch of the Chaldean Catholic church, paving the way for his return to Baghdad a year after a dispute with the president.
Sako, Iraq’s top Christian leader and the architect of Pope Francis’ historic visit to the country in 2021, is a key interlocutor between the Iraqi government and its Christian minority.
In July last year, Sako left Baghdad and settled in the autonomous Kurdistan region in northern Iraq after President Abdul Latif Rashid cancelled a decree recognising him as head of the Chaldean hurch.
But the church on Tuesday published a recent decree by Prime Minister Mohamed Shia al-Sudani naming Sako as the patriarch, adding that he “will be responsible” for the church’s endowment and properties.
“I will return to Baghdad,” Sako told AFP.
“I am very pleased because the rule of law prevailed, which gives more hope to Christians about the respecting of their rights,” added the cardinal, who met Sudani in April during a rare visit to Baghdad.
For several months before the presidential decree last year, Sako had been embroiled in a war of words with a Christian lawmaker, Rayan al-Kildani.
Kildani is the leader of the Babylon Movement, whose armed wing is part of Hashed al-Shaabi — a network of largely pro-Iran paramilitaries that were integrated into Iraqi security forces in recent years.
In a country ravaged by repeated conflicts and plagued by endemic corruption, Sako and Kildani both accused each other of illegally seizing Christian-owned properties.
Kildani, who has been under US sanctions since 2019, accused the cardinal of assuming a political role beyond his religious mandate.
Sako, in turn, said the parliamentarian aimed to gain legitimacy as the sole representative of the Christian community.
Iraq’s Christian population has drastically declined since the 2003 US-led invasion that toppled strongman Saddam Hussein, dropping from more than 1.5 million people to around 400,000 today.
Many have fled the violence that has plagued the country over the past 20 years.

Fr. Arturo Sosa, SJ, Elected 31st Superior General of the Society of Jesus
Father Arturo Sosa Abascal, SJ, of Venezuela has been elected the 31st Superior General of the Society of Jesus.
October 14, 2016 — Father Arturo Sosa Abascal, SJ, of Venezuela was elected the 31st Superior General of the Society of Jesus at the Jesuits’ General Congregation 36 (GC 36) today in Rome. Fr. Sosa is the first Latin American Superior General of the Society of Jesus, the largest religious order of priests and brothers in the Catholic Church.
Fr. Sosa, Delegate of the General for the International Houses and Works of the Society of Jesus in Rome, was elected by 212 Jesuit electors at the General Congregation, the supreme governing body of the Society, which is currently being held at the Jesuit Curia, the Society’s headquarters in Rome. He succeeds Father Adolfo NicolĂĄs, SJ, 80, who resigned last week after serving as Superior General since 2008.
Jesuits celebrated the Mass of the Holy Spirit at Santo Spirito Church before electing a new Superior General Oct. 14.
Fr. Sosa was born in Caracas, Venezuela, on November 12, 1948. He entered the Society of Jesus in September 1966 and was ordained a priest in 1977. He holds a bachelor’s degree in philosophy from the Catholic University AndrĂ©s Bello in Caracas, a bachelor’s degree in theology from the Gregorian University in Rome and a doctorate in political science from the Universidad Central de Venezuela. He was provincial superior of the Society of Jesus in Venezuela from 1996 to 2004. Fr. Sosa speaks Spanish, Italian and English and understands French.
Prior to his appointment as provincial, he was in charge of the social apostolate of the Jesuits in Venezuela, which includes the Jesuit network of schools for the poor, Fe y AlegrĂa. He was also head of the Centro Gumilla, the Jesuit-run social and action research center.
Fr. Arturo Sosa, SJ (right), newly elected Superior General, is greeted by Fr. Adolfo NicolĂĄs, SJ, his predecessor.
Among his distinguished academic posts, he has served as a member of the founding board of the Andrés Bello Catholic University in Caracas and rector of the Catholic University of Tåchira. He has taught and researched political science in many different institutes and colleges, and in 2004 was a visiting professor at the Latin-American Studies Center of Georgetown University.
Fr. Sosa, only the 31st Superior General in the Society’s 476-year history, now leads the 16,740 Jesuits worldwide. This includes about 12,000 priests; 1,300 brothers; 2,700 scholastics; and 753 novices, according to Father Federico Lombardi, SJ, General Counsellor and Assistant ad Providentiam.
In an interview at GC 36 before the election, Fr. Sosa said delegates gathered come from different countries, but they share a common culture linked to their experience of the Ignatian spiritual exercises and practices of discernment. “We have a long tradition and a strong desire to listen to the same voice, that is the voice of the Holy Spirit.”
The election was held after four days of murmuratio, a centuries-old practice of one-on-one conversation and information gathering, designed to prepare the delegation for the selection of a new Superior General.
Jesuits talk during the murmuratio.
The day of the election began with a Votive Mass of the Holy Spirit at Santo Spirito Church, the 12th-century church across the street from the Curia. Father James Grummer, SJ, Vicar General of the Congregation, delivered the homily.
Santo Spirito Church
Fr. Grummer reflected on their task to choose a new leader: “Our mission this morning is to elect a General. We will be locked into an upper room, not for fear but for concentrated listening to the Spirit’s whisper. We are not afraid because we believe so strongly that the Spirit guides the balloting that according to Formula 84 ‘The man elected cannot refuse the election.’ ”
The Jesuit electors’ mission was not just to listen carefully, said Fr. Grummer, “but also to trust that even if I need batteries in my spiritual hearing aid, I can trust that through this band of brothers the Spirit will identify the man he has chosen. We can trust that Jesus will give us his Spirit, no matter how locked we may feel.”

Fr. Grummer noted that St. Ignatius Loyola, founder of the Society of Jesus, did not talk about the Holy Spirit often in his writings. “I believe Ignatius said so little about the Holy Spirit because he did not want words to distract doubters and Inquisitors from the deeds of the Spirit, from experiencing joy, gifts and mission of the Holy Spirit.
“Ignatius’ silence about the Spirit leaves more room to contemplate the deeds of that Spirit. As we celebrate the Eucharist at this altar this morning, may the Spirit fill our silence with the joy and all the gifts we need to embrace the special mission this day of choosing the one the Lord has chosen.”

After Mass, the Jesuits assembled in silence in the Aula (Latin for hall) back at the Jesuit Curia. The delegates then prayed silently for one hour, before voting began. In order to be named as the Jesuits’ new superior general, Fr. Sosa would have had to have received 107 votes (50 percent plus one of the 212 electors). All aspects of the election are strictly confidential, although the congregation confirmed that the first person to be notified of Fr. Sosa’s election was Pope Francis.
Jesuits congratulate Fr. Sosa after his election.
While Fr. Sosa’s election as Superior General completes one of the main tasks of GC 36, the group’s work is not over. Now the delegates will tackle matters of mission, governance and the state of the Society. Topics may range from the Society’s changing demographics to challenges in worldwide ministries, to the Jesuit response to a rapidly changing world, environmental concerns, poverty and violence.

2016 Presidential Election
Donald J. Trump
The United States presidential election of 2016 was the 58th quadrennial American presidential election, held on Tuesday, November 8, 2016. The Republican ticket of businessman Donald Trump and Indiana Governor Mike Pence defeated the Democratic ticket of former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton and U.S. Senator from Virginia Tim Kaine.
While Clinton received about 2.9 million more votes nationwide, a margin of 2.1% of the total cast, Trump won a victory in the Electoral College, winning 30 states with 306 pledged electors out of 538, and overturned the perennial swing states of Florida, Iowa and Ohio, as well as the "blue wall" of Michigan, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin, which had been Democratic strongholds in presidential elections since the 1990s. Leading up to the election, a Trump victory was projected unlikely by most media forecasts.

The 37th Annual Slammy Awards (TV Special 1987) - IMDb
The 1987 WWF Slammy Awards, mockingly marketed as the "37th Annual Slammy Awards," was the second-ever WWF award show, held in Atlantic City and featuring musical performances, including Vince McMahon's famous "Stand Back" performance. It was a chaotic, often parody-style event promoting the "Piledriver" music album, featuring various wrestler musical numbers and comedy segments.
Key Details of the 1987 Slammy Awards (37th Annual):
Date: December 16, 1987 (Taped); Aired in syndication later.
Location: Caesars Atlantic City, NJ.
Hosts: Jesse "The Body" Ventura and "Mean" Gene Okerlund.
Highlights: Vince McMahon singing "Stand Back" with Hulk Hogan on bass, plus Jimmy Hart performing "Girls in Cars".
Context: While called the 37th to make the event seem bigger than it was, it was only the second Slammy ceremony, following the 1986 inaugural event.
Winners: Included awards for "Best Producer," "Best Individual Singer," and various in-ring accomplishments.
The show is remembered fondly for its campy, over-the-top atmosphere, setting the tone for future WWE award shows, which are often highly produced, unlike the theatrical variety show format of this 1987 production.

Jesus Christ – The Righteous Warrior
The most common impression of Jesus is that of a loving, tender, compassionate Savior. But there is another side to that “coin” — the one portrayed in Revelation 19:11ff.
Wayne Jackson

No narration available
One of the more awesome scenes in the final book of the Bible reads as follows:
“And I saw the heaven opened; and behold, a white horse, and he that sat thereon called Faithful and True; and in righteousness he doth judge and make war. And his eyes are a flame of fire, and upon his head are many diadems; and he hath a name written which no one knoweth but he himself. And he is arrayed in a garment sprinkled with blood: and his name is called The Word of God. And the armies which are in heaven followed him upon white horses, clothed in fine linen, white and pure. And out of his mouth proceedeth a sharp sword, that with it he should smite the nations: and he shall rule them with a rod of iron: and he treadeth the winepress of the fierceness of the wrath of God, the Almighty. And he hath on his garment and on his thigh a name written, KING OF KINGS, AND LORD OF LORDS (Rev. 19:11-16 – ASV).
Introductory Matters
The scene begins with John using that expression which asserts that his message is of divine origin. He saw “heaven opened” (see 4:1; cf. Ezek. 1:1). Moreover, the events of earth are under the sovereign control of him who orchestrates his will from heaven, and the apostle was given a preview of the final conflict.
John uses his characteristic “behold” (idou – 26 times in Revelation) to enliven the narrative, to awaken attention to what he is about to describe.
The Holy Warrior
The primary subject of the vision was on a “white horse.” “White” in Revelation can suggest either purity (3:18) or victory (6:2); here the latter sense seems implied – particularly in view of the astounding conquest that is described subsequently (see Jackson, p. 13-14).
The rider undeniably is Jesus Christ. He is designated as the “Word” of God, whom the apostle elsewhere identifies as the Lord Jesus (cf. Jn. 1:1,14; 1 Jn. 1:1). Christ is the divine Word (logos) because he is the thought and voice of Heaven to humanity (cf. Jn. 1:18; 14:8f). The will of God for mankind cannot be ascertained apart from the revelatory mission of Jesus of Nazareth.
The Lord is further characterized as “faithful” because he ever was loyal to the will of his Father (Jn. 8:29; 2 Cor. 5:21; Heb. 3:2; 4:15; 1 Pet. 2:22). It was Jesus’ perfect life that qualified him to be the atoning sacrifice for sin (1 Pet. 1:18-19). Moreover, he is “true” as to his witness of the will of God to our blighted race (cf. Rev. 1:5; 3:7,14).
The Purpose of His Mission
The apostle sets forth the mission of the heavenly warrior. In righteousness he judges and makes war!
When Jesus came to earth the first time, his purpose was to inaugurate a system of redemption for Adam’s fallen family. As he himself said: “For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved” (Jn. 3:17). Once that mission of mercy was implemented, no further plan was to be offered. Aside from Jesus, there is no other sacrifice for sins (cf. Heb. 10:26).
In this latter instance, however, the Lord has not come on a mission of mercy; rather, he has arrived for judgment and the destruction of the ungodly. It is important to note the connection between “judge” and “make war.” The two occur simultaneously. The war is the day of judgment! See 2 Corinthians 5:10 and 2 Thessalonians 1:7ff.
One can hardly consider this context without referring back to the scene in chapter 16, when, in the graphic symbolism of the narrative, wrath from heaven is poured out as a prelude to a holy war. The major enemies of truth (the dragon, the beast, and the false prophet) were gathered “unto the war of the great day of God” (16:14). Figuratively, it was designated as “Har-Magedon” (i.e., the hill of Megiddo). Megiddo, the most famous battlefield in history, thus becomes a symbol for the conflict that is to take place on the final day of this globe’s existence. Observe that this is “the great day of God,” which corresponds to “the day of God” described by Peter in the third chapter of his second epistle (v. 12). It also is referred to as “the day of the Lord” (v. 10), or the time of “his coming” (v. 4).
According to the vision in 16:13ff, the forces of Satan are gathered for a mighty confrontation with the Sovereign of the universe. The actual conflict is viewed in chapter 19 – together with the predictable result.
Significantly, it is affirmed that the Lord will act (judge and make war) in “righteousness” (v. 11), i.e., consistent with the ultimate standard of a just Deity. Abraham once expressed confidence in the fact that God would treat humanity fairly, distinguishing between the righteous and the wicked. He asked: “Shall not the Judge of all the earth do right?” (Gen. 18:25). The theme of divine justice is common to this book (cf. 16:5,7; 19:2). The final judgment will be fair in that it will:
take into consideration one’s level of personal knowledge (Lk. 12:47-48);
be consistent with one’s individual abilities (Lk. 19:13ff);
be rendered in light of one’s unique opportunities (Mt. 11:20ff);
be cognizant of the law-system to which one was amenable (Heb. 10:28-29).
There are many aspects of Heaven’s judgment that we cannot appreciate from our current, limited vantage point, but on that final day, called “the day of wrath and the revelation of the righteous judgment of God” (Rom. 2:5), our questions will be resolved, and the whole of humanity, in one fashion or another, will acknowledge the Creator’s justice (cf. Rom. 14:10-12).
The Warrior Described
John said of the Conqueror: “His eyes are a flame of fire” (Rev. 19:12). This descriptive has occurred twice previously in this book (1:14; 2:18). The symbolism likely highlights the deep, penetrating insight of the Son of God, suggesting that he is perfectly qualified to judge. All things are naked and laid open before the eyes of him with whom we have to do (Heb. 4:13).
Upon the Lord’s head were many “crowns” (KJV), or “diadems” (ASV). There are two words for “crown” in the New Testament. There is the stephanos, the wreath of victory (cf. 1 Cor. 9:25), with which Christ is adorned in the scene of 14:14, and which faithful saints are promised (Rev. 2:10). Yet, in this case, the term is diadem, the crown of royalty. The picture is that of the regal authority of the Son of God. He has the divine right of judgment and conquest.
The apostle says the warrior “had a name written which no one knows but himself.” This phrase is obscure. It is generally taken to mean that there are mysteries associated with Jesus which the human mind can never fathom (cf. Barclay, p. 232).
The Lord is here arrayed with a garment dipped in blood. “Dipped” (from bapto) is supported by the better manuscript evidence than is “sprinkled” (rhantizo – ASV). But whose blood is it that so saturates this garment, that it almost looks dyed (Arndt, p. 132)? While some would argue that the imagery points to the shed blood of the Lamb (Johnson, pp. 574-5), it is more likely that the graphic is borrowed from the Old Testament – specifically Isaiah 63:1-6. In this sacred narrative, the prophet sees a strong and majestic being, who is returning from a devastating slaughter of the Edomites (enemies of the Lord’s people). His garment is soaked in blood – stained like one who has trod the winepress. The blood is that of those rebels who flaunted his will. God has had his “day of vengeance” upon them. No one was able to deliver these rogues from his mighty hand.
So similarly, the Son of God shall destroy those who have resisted his grace (Mt. 10:28; 2 Thes. 1:7ff). Unatoned wrongs will be addressed on the final day of history (cf. Lk. 18:7-8; Rom. 12:19; Rev. 6:9-11).
It is intriguing to note that later in chapter 19, the beast and the kings of the earth are represented as being gathered together to make war against the Lord and his armies (v. 19). Some suggest this indicates that the blood cannot be the enemies’; they are alive still. But, as Mounce notes, such an argument “misunderstands the nature of apocalyptic writing” (p. 345). The picture emphasizes that the battle is over before it is ever engaged! Such is the Lord’s power!
A Shared Victory
The conquering Christ is followed by heavenly armies who also are mounted on white steeds. Moreover, they are clothed in fine linen, pure and white. This celestial army consists of the redeemed, who, by their obedience, have washed their robes in the Lamb’s blood, making them white (Rev. 7:14). They share in the Lamb’s victory because they were willing to commit their very lives to the Master’s cause (cf. 12:10ff).
The Destruction of the Enemy
The weapon employed by the Faithful and True One is that of a sword, a sharp sword, that kept on proceeding from his mouth (v. 15). This is an obvious allusion to his powerful word (cf. Heb. 4:12).
Scripture is replete with references to the incomprehensible power of the spoken word of God. No less than ten times in Genesis 1 Moses employed the verb “said” in describing the creative acts by which the universe was fashioned. Later, the Psalmist expressed it like this: “By the word of Jehovah were the heavens made, and all the host of them by the breath of his mouth. . . for he spake and it was done” (Psa. 33:6,9). In maintaining the world, the writer of Hebrews observes that the Lord Jesus upholds all things “by the word of his power” (Heb. 1:3).
And so, at the time of judgment, the Savior will wage no carnal conflict with his enemies; he will merely speak the word, and they will be banished to eternal punishment (cf. Isa. 11:4; 2 Thes. 2:8).
When John describes Christ as ruling his enemies “with a rod of iron” (v. 15), the picture is one of crushing judgment. The Psalmist speaks of the conquering role of the Messiah when he says that he shall “break [his foes] with a rod of iron” and “dash them in pieces like a potter’s vessel” (Psa. 2:9; cf. Rev. 2:27). It is interesting that the original term for “rule” hints of a shepherd’s club, by which he not only destroys the predator, but also saves the flock.
The Messianic-warrior will tread the winepress of “the fierceness of the wrath of God, the Almighty” (cf. 16:19). The “wrath” of God should not be interpreted in terms of an emotional outburst, as with frail humans; rather, it is a measured response of divine justice to human arrogance and rebellion. Too, it must be viewed against the backdrop of the Creator’s amazing love – so hatefully rejected by the masses. In 14:10, the apostle speaks of the “wine of the wrath of God, unmixed [i.e., undiluted, full strength] in the cup of his wrath.” This judgment will forever demonstrate that he is KING OF KINGS, AND LORD OF LORDS.
Conclusion
The most common impression of Jesus, entertained by devout Bible students, is that of a loving, tender, compassionate Savior. These qualities must never be minimized. But there is another side to that “coin” – the one portrayed in Revelation 19:11ff; that of the righteous warrior. Don’t trifle with the Son of God!

Judge John Schelgelmilch flatters jurors in letters is jury tampering, has no honor until he repents from false imprisoning defendants that were framed! Wrote my father that has the same name as I do and lived at the same address was a juror for a murder trial in 2016 at Schlegelmilch's court in Yerington Nevada! This judge is biased!
Neighbors 2030 Lonnie Lane weaponized litigation framing putting their garbage into other neighbors garbage cans and the judge pretends to do thorough forensic analysis:
"Pizzagate" is a conspiracy theory that went viral during the 2016 United States presidential election cycle, falsely claiming that the New York City Police Department (NYPD) had discovered a pedophilia ring linked to members of the Democratic Party while searching through Anthony Weiner's emails.[1][2][3] It has been extensively discredited by a wide range of organizations, including the Washington, D.C. police.[2][3][4]
The personal email account of John Podesta, Hillary Clinton's campaign chair, was hacked in a spear-phishing attack in March 2016. WikiLeaks published his emails in November 2016. Proponents of the Pizzagate conspiracy theory falsely claimed the emails contained coded messages that connected several high-ranking Democratic Party officials and U.S. restaurants with an alleged human-trafficking and child sex ring. One of the establishments allegedly involved was the Comet Ping Pong pizzeria in Washington, D.C.[5][6]
Members of the alt-right, conservative journalists and others who had urged Clinton's prosecution over her use of an unrelated private email server spread the conspiracy theory on social media outlets such as 4chan, 8chan, Reddit and Twitter.[7] In response, a man from North Carolina traveled to Comet Ping Pong to investigate the conspiracy and fired a rifle inside the restaurant to break the lock on a door to a storage room during his search.[8] In addition, the restaurant's owner and staff received death threats from conspiracy theorists.[9]
Pizzagate is generally considered a predecessor to the QAnon conspiracy theory. It also generated another offshoot conspiracy theory, called Frazzledrip, which involved Hillary Clinton participating in the ritual murder of a child. Pizzagate resurged in 2020, mainly due to QAnon, and again in 2026 during the release of the Epstein files. While initially it was spread by only the far-right, it has since been spread by users on TikTok "who don't otherwise fit a right-wing conspiracy theorist mold: the biggest Pizzagate spreaders on TikTok appear to otherwise be mostly interested in topics of viral dance moves and Black Lives Matter".[10] The conspiracy theory has developed and become less partisan and political in nature, with less emphasis on Clinton and more on an alleged worldwide elite of child sex-traffickers.[11]

I been committing adultery in prayer to Christ, wanting to be with Juliet Landau, they are married for 21 years to Deverill Weekes, I wasn't sure and just looked up. I want get married to a woman every for 40 years, why does Jesus let me be in painful lust everyday?
Deverill Weekes is a massive loser at the moment for wanting to martyr Juliet by poisoning them and then being a widower, what retard, Jesuit Papist that needs to repent I don't win or lose in the court of law because Weekes using Juliet's ties to Kurt Olsen at the Department of Justice, the Cort's are corrupt because both sides want to win and the Judge wants to win and all they resort to cheating dirty tactics,. I want the courts uncorrupted.
I ask Jesus marriage everyday it is painful torment to be in lust and seeing lying ass signs and wonders that tell me to be patient and other signs telling me it is hopeless and all of these people are agents of the Vatican no matter what latest gang name they operate under, Order of the Nine Angels is an offshoot of Yale's Skull and Bones society
Juliet is as intelligent that come across as being they would not allow themselves to be martyred and improve that YouTube channel of theirs and get away from the interviewers because they are frienemies, they have no true respect for Juliet Rose Landau it is very condescending to listen to Re-Vamped with Juliet Landau, I hope Juliet's intelligence does not dwindle and that they get saved by Jesus Christ because the years did go by way too fast for Juliet at 60 years alive, pictures of them from 20 years ago looks brand new today and they look absolutely beautiful to me, I hope Jesus Christ gets me out of lust to a woman that loves Jesus for marriage.
I want to marry Juliet Landau forever if they were really single and I would want to be put in their Jesuit oath atonement place only if I get to be around them in this life but Jesus Christ could keep Juliet free from that and have Enoch's walk without me volunteering for that if they don't want me around them.
Why did God take Enoch and Elijah to heaven without them dying?
Answer
According to the Bible, Enoch and Elijah are the only two people God took to heaven without their dying. Genesis 5:24 says, “Enoch walked faithfully with God; then he was no more, because God took him away.” Second Kings 2:11 relates the earth-to-heaven translation of Elijah: “As they [Elijah and Elisha] were walking along and talking together, suddenly a chariot of fire and horses of fire appeared and separated the two of them, and Elijah went up to heaven in a whirlwind.”
Enoch was a seventh-generation descendant of Adam through Seth. He was the father of Methuselah and great-grandfather of Noah. Genesis 5:24 describes Enoch as a man who walked “faithfully with God” (NIV) or “in close fellowship with God” (NLT). The name Enoch may originate from a Semitic word meaning “to dedicate, initiate.” Enoch was 365 years old when “he disappeared, because God took him” to heaven (Genesis 5:24, NLT). Some scholars believe Psalms 49:15 and 73:24 are references to Enoch’s story.
Elijah lived many centuries after Enoch during the reigns of kings Ahab and Ahaziah when Israel existed as a divided kingdom. Elijah was a worker of spectacular miracles, including the calling forth of drought and rain (see 1 Kings 17:1, 17–24; 18:16–46). He was perhaps the most powerful of God’s prophets in the Old Testament. Elijah rather fittingly means, “My God is Yahweh [the Lord].” Elijah spent his prophetic energies proving that Yahweh was superior to the false god Baal. The Bible says Elijah was walking and talking with his understudy, Elisha, when the two prophets were separated by a chariot of fire pulled by flaming horses. Suddenly, Elijah was carried up into heaven in a whirlwind.
Why did God take Enoch and Elijah? The Bible does not specifically give us the answer; therefore, we can only speculate.
Enoch and Elijah had one primary trait in common—they were both exceptionally faithful in serving and obeying the Lord. Perhaps for this reason, God desired to spare them from experiencing death.
Enoch lived during an exceedingly evil period in world history, right before the Flood. Almost every living person had rejected God, becoming wholly corrupt, and the world was full of violence (see Genesis 6:5–12). However, Enoch stood for righteousness and refused to be silent about the sinfulness all around him. According to Jude, Enoch prophesied against his wicked generation: “See, the Lord is coming with thousands upon thousands of his holy ones to judge everyone, and to convict all of them of all the ungodly acts they have committed in their ungodliness, and of all the defiant words ungodly sinners have spoken against him” (Jude 1:14–15).
The author of Hebrews seems to suggest that Enoch was taken to heaven without dying because his great faith pleased God: “It was by faith that Enoch was taken up to heaven without dying—‘he disappeared, because God took him.’ For before he was taken up, he was known as a person who pleased God” (Hebrews 11:5, NLT).
Some hypothesize that Enoch and Elijah were taken to heaven in preparation for a strategic role in end-times events. Malachi prophesied that God would send Elijah back before “that great and dreadful day of the Lord comes” (Malachi 4:5). Some thought Jesus might be Elijah returned (Matthew 16:14; Mark 6:15). Elijah “appeared in glorious splendor” with Moses on the Mount of Transfiguration to discuss with Jesus His soon departure (Matthew 17:1–8; Mark 9:2–8; Luke 9:28–36).
A conceivable theory is that the two witnesses of Revelation 11:3–12 are Enoch and Elijah. Neither is mentioned by name, but both have the “power to shut up the heavens so that it will not rain during the time they are prophesying; and they have power to turn the waters into blood and to strike the earth with every kind of plague as often as they want” (verse 6). While this inference is possible, it is not explicitly taught in the Bible.
Whatever the reason, God had His purpose for taking Enoch and Elijah to heaven without their dying. We can’t always understand the Lord’s plans and ways in our finite human state (Isaiah 55:9), but we can trust and know that “his way is perfect” (Psalm 18:30).

The text of the Book of Genesis says ENOCH lived 365 years before he was taken by God. The text reads that Enoch "walked with God: and he was no more; for God took him" (Gen 5:21–24), which is interpreted as Enoch entering heaven alive in some Jewish and Christian traditions,[2][3] and interpreted differently in others.[4]

A Satanic novice living in a European country where questioning the 'holocaust' is a crime, in Law, joins an extreme Right-wing political group which works "underground". In doing this, he hopes to acquire experience "on the edge" and actively aid the sinister dialectic by challenging 'the accepted' and speaking/working for and on behalf of the heretical and 'the forbidden' (in that and other Western countries, the heretical is National- Socialism: qv. MSS on Aeonics). After some months of action, he and some others are betrayed by someone working with them. The person who betrayed them had been arrested doing something dreadfully 'illegal' (distributing forbidden books and leaflets) and had made a deal with the authorities whereby he only gets a fine if he gives them the names of others involved in the underground cell.

Although in the first 30 years of the existence of the Society of Jesus there were many Jesuits who were conversos (Catholic-convert Jews and Muslims and their descendants), an anti-converso faction led to the Decree de genere (1593) which proclaimed that either Jewish or Muslim ancestry, no matter how distant, was an insurmountable impediment for admission to the Society of Jesus.[191]

Himmler used the Jesuits as the model for the SS, since he found they had the core elements of absolute obedience and the cult of the organisation.[59][60] Hitler is said to have called Himmler "my Ignatius of Loyola".[59] As an order, the SS needed a coherent doctrine that would set it apart.[61]

From 1939, the SS assumed responsibility for “solving” the so-called Jewish Question; after 1941, its leadership planned, coordinated and directed the so-called Final Solution of the Jewish Question. This “solution” was the annihilation of the European Jews, which we now refer to as the Holocaust
https://encyclopedia.ushmm.org/content/en/article/ss
2 §1. The character and charism of the Society of Jesus arise from the Spiritual Exercises which our holy father Ignatius and his companions went through. Led by this experience, they formed an apostolic group rooted in charity, in which, after they had taken the vows of chastity and poverty and had been raised to the priesthood, they offered themselves as a HOLOCAUST to God,[2] so that serving as soldiers of God beneath the banner of the cross and serving the Lord alone and the Church his spouse under the Roman Pontiff, the vicar of Christ on earth,[3] they would be sent into the entire world[4] for the defense and propagation of the faith and for the progress of souls in Christian life and doctrine.

AI Overview
"All rise" is a formal directive spoken by a bailiff in a courtroom to instruct everyone to stand when a judge enters or leaves, serving as a sign of respect for the court's authority. It ensures proper courtroom etiquette and signifies the beginning or end of proceedings. It is also the name of a non-profit, All Rise, dedicated to treatment courts.
Key Aspects of "All Rise"
Courtroom Procedure: When the bailiff announces "All rise" upon the judge's entry, those present should stand and remain standing until the judge is seated or instructs them to sit.
Purpose: This action shows respect for the judicial system and the judge's authority. It is generally required for defendants, witnesses, and spectators.
All Rise (Non-profit): Formerly known as the National Association of Drug Court Professionals (NADCP), this organization focuses on providing training and technical assistance for treatment courts. It supports programs that address substance use and mental health disorders to improve justice outcomes.
All Rise (TV Series): A courtroom drama that aired on CBS and Facebook.
Significance of Treatment Courts
Accountability and Treatment: These courts combine judicial monitoring with treatment for people with substance use or mental health disorders.
Types: Programs include adult, juvenile, and veterans treatment courts, designed to reduce recidivism and foster recovery.
Impact: Over 4,000 treatment court programs exist in the U.S. to help rehabilitate individuals rather than relying solely on incarceration.
Putting the mental in judgmental
The term ‘Pharisee’ appears 99 times in the New Testament, 91 times in the Gospels. In one text after another, Pharisees display a fondness for being critical, especially toward Jesus. In Mark two alone, they do not like that Jesus is eating with tax collectors and sinners (Mark 2:16); they wonder aloud why his disciples do not fast (Mark 2:18); and they accuse his disciples of working on the Sabbath (Mark 2:24). After Jesus defends himself against their criticism for healing on the Sabbath, the Pharisees are already plotting his murder (Mark 3:6).
Jesus portrays the Pharisee as manifesting this tendency to criticize even in their prayers: “God, I thank you that I am not like other people—robbers, evildoers, adulterers—or even like this tax collector” (Luke 18:11). What a tragedy that the most outstanding religious leaders of first-century Judaism are the self-appointed judges of their communities! All of the good they otherwise desire to do—preserving their people from the inroads of paganism, pointing them to the inspired Word of God, and restoring an interest in strict obedience to Yahweh—they destroy by this moralistic bent.
Tendency to judge a major issue
The gospel texts make clear that their judgments against Jesus are erroneous because they are superficial. Jesus eats with tax collectors and sinners, not as a demonstration that he condones their sinful lifestyle, but as an effective way to reach them with a redemptive message. His disciples do not fast because their immediate mission to assist God’s Anointed takes priority over efforts at personal self-improvement. Serving the Messiah is also a higher duty than the keeping of the Sabbath rules, and God’s granting of miraculous power to Jesus demonstrates His approval of Sabbath healings.
Mark’s original readers probably did not miss the irony of the Pharisaic plot to kill Jesus. Although committed to aligning their goals with God’s, they seek to murder a man strenuously working to turn hardened sinners to repentance, to provide spiritual food to the thousands famished for it, and to display God’s mercy toward the sick and those physically disabled.
In Mark the criticism continues as the Pharisees next ask why Jesus’ disciples eat with unwashed hands, breaking the traditions of the elders (Mark 7:1-5). Our Lord’s reply proves that the traditions they would bind on the people are misguided (Mark 7:8-13). He concludes by offering them and the crowd a proverb: “nothing outside a person can defile them by going into them. Rather, it is what comes out of a person the defiles them” (Mark 7:15).
Privately, Jesus explains to his disciples the meaning of his proverb (Mark 7:17-23). Food does not defile a person (what goes into them), but their evil thoughts (what comes out of them) do defile them. The Pharisees need to change their focus from whether hands are washed to the things that really matter—the cleansing of the mind and how to maintain its purity.
In their next encounter with Jesus the Pharisees ask him for a sign from heaven (Mark 8:11). Such a question arrogantly ignores the constant signs God is continually planting around Jesus: healing the sick, restoring the disabled, casting out demons, feeding the 5000, and preaching good news to the anxious crowds. All of these they reject, either unreasonably narrowing the criteria for a sign they would find acceptable or determined to reject any sign that he would offer.
In the final two cases recorded in Mark’s Gospel, the Pharisees seek to entrap Jesus in what chess players call a fork move (Mark 10:2-12; Mark 12:13-17). The first involves divorce and the second paying tribute to Caesar. In both cases, they reveal that their interest is catching Jesus in a mistake rather than discerning what truly is the will of God.
Self-appointed judges not limited to Judaism and Christianity
Religious people who think their main focus concerns judging the actions and attitudes of others are certainly not confined only to Judaism and Christianity. In this week’s news, driver’s education instructors in Gaza complained that the police under the administration of Hamas are fining them for attempting to instruct women learners without supervision. The same story also mentions that young man are hauled in “for questioning or worse because they sport certain hairstyles or where low-rider jeans.”
Even in America’s corporate world we hear tales of HR employees who are known as being highly enthusiastic implying their authority. Their coworkers think they are ‘enforcement addicts.’ Some employees believe that HR creates an environment of oppression because of their overly-vigilant policy enforcement. It seems likely that the Pharisees were creating a similar environment of oppression among the Jewish communities of first-century Palestine. Modern Pharisees can create a similar atmosphere within their churches today.
Jesus’ warning: “Judge not!”
What is the antidote to this “poisonous righteous” criticizing agenda? Jesus administers it as he nears the climax of the Sermon on the Mount: “Do not judge, or you too will be judged. For in the same way you judge others, you will be judged, and with the measure you use, it will be measured to you” (Matthew 7:1-2). Jesus does not want his disciples to start out on a lifelong quest of critiquing the lives of others but to join him in a different mission: to seek and to save those who are lost (Luke 19:10). After all, he has not come to condemn the world but to save it (John 3:17).
This passage has received a tremendous amount of attention. Non-believers cite it to justify any and every practice conflicting with the teachings of Scripture. In their view, Jesus advocates forsaking the traditional practice of grounding standards of behavior in the holiness of God (see Leviticus 19:2) in favor of embracing moral relativism. This new ethic is so often expressed in today’s world with declarations such as, “I would not presume to impose my personal morality on you; who am I to judge?” Such a statement often precedes a quotation of Matthew 7:1.
Semitic emphatic idiom
The context of this verse, however, indicates that Jesus is not prohibiting all judging. He simply does not want us to make a career out of judging others. Just like in Matthew 9:13, where Jesus quotes Hosea 6:6, “I desire mercy, not sacrifice,” we should understand “Judge not” as a Semitic figure of speech that emphasizes one alternative by overstating a preference for it over its rival. For another example see Luke 14:26.
Yet such nuancing of Jesus’ command should not lead us to ignore the message of Matthew 7:1. All who seek to lead people into paths of righteousness run the risk of erring the same way that the Pharisees did. If we follow their example, we make things worse for the people around us, not better, for now they will feel justified by our sorry example to ignore our warnings.
Step down from the bench
As a recovering Pharisee myself, I have decided that I have done so much judging in the past that I have almost relinquished my right to judge anyone. At the very least, I have decided not to be the first in line to pass judgment on others but to look at my own sins first, determine to make changes, and seek God’s forgiveness. Yet neither can I recommend moral relativism.
As a third alternative, I can choose to explain things this way: “Here is what God’s Word teaches on this issue, and I for one, so prone to go my own way in rebellion against His will, am committed to submit to the Divine Designer and follow his instructions. If you have a problem with that, let’s talk about whether our differences are over what God’s word really says. Perhaps you understand these passages better than I do. But if not, I urge you to reconsider what you are doing, not to persuade you to conform to what I am doing but to bow to the revealed Word of God. I promise to love you and do what I can to help you, no matter what you decide.”
People may or may not respond favorably to this approach, but they will not see you as a self-righteous Pharisee, intent on judging them while keeping aloof from their struggles.

Mark 10
1599 Geneva Bible
10 9 The wife, only for fornication, is to be put away. 13 Little children are brought to Christ. 17 A rich man asketh Jesus, how he may possess eternal life. 28 The Apostles forsook all things for Christ’s sake. 33 Christ foreshoweth his death. 35 Zebedee’s sons’ request. 46 Blind Bartimaeus healed.
1 And he [a]arose from thence, and went into the coasts of Judea by the far side of Jordan, and the people resorted unto him again, and as he was wont, he taught them again.
2 Then the Pharisees came and asked him, if it were lawful for a man to put away his wife, and tempted him.
3 And he answered, and said unto them, What did Moses command you?
4 And they said, Moses suffered to write a bill of divorcement, and to put her away.
5 [b]Then Jesus answered, and said unto them, For the hardness of your heart he wrote this [c]precept unto you.
6 But at the beginning of the creation God made them male and female:
7 For this cause shall man leave his father and mother, and cleave unto his wife.
8 And they twain shall be one flesh: so that they are no more twain, but one flesh.
9 Therefore, what God hath coupled together, let not man separate.
10 And in the house his disciples asked him again of that matter.
11 And he said unto them, whosoever shall put away his wife and marry another, commiteth adultery [d]against her.
12 And if a woman put away her husband, and be married to another, she commiteth adultery.
13 ¶ [e]Then they brought little children to him, that he should touch them, and his disciples rebuked those that brought them.
14 But when Jesus saw it, he was displeased, and said to them, Suffer the little children to come unto me, and forbid them not: for of such is the kingdom of God.
15 Verily I say unto you, Whosoever shall not receive the kingdom of God [f]as a little child, he shall not enter therein.
16 And he took them up in his arms, and put his hands upon them, and blessed them.
17 ¶ [g]And when he was gone out on the way, there came one running, and kneeled to him, and asked him, Good Master, what shall I do, that I may possess eternal life?
18 Jesus said to him, Why callest thou me good? there is none good but one, even God.
19 Thou knowest the commandments, Thou shalt not commit adultery. Thou shalt not kill. Thou shalt not steal. Thou shalt not bear false witness. Thou shalt [h]hurt no man. Honor thy father and mother.
20 Then he answered, and said to him, Master, all these things have I observed from my youth.
21 And Jesus looked upon him, and loved him, and said unto him, One thing is lacking unto thee. Go and sell all that thou hast, and give to the poor, and thou shalt have treasure in heaven, and come, follow me, and take up the cross.
22 But he was sad at that saying, and went away sorrowful: for he had great possessions.
23 And Jesus looked round about, and said unto his disciples, How hardly do they that have riches, enter into the kingdom of God!
24 And his disciples were afraid at his words. But Jesus answered again, and said unto them, Children, how hard is it for them that trust in riches, to enter into the kingdom of God!
25 It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle, than for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of God.
26 And they were much more astonied, saying with themselves, Who then can be saved?
27 But Jesus looked upon them, and said, With men it is impossible, but not with God: for with God all things are possible.
28 ¶ [i]Then Peter began to say unto him, Lo, we have forsaken all, and have followed thee.
29 Jesus answered, and said, Verily I say unto you, there is no man that hath forsaken house, or brethren, or sisters, or father, or mother, or wife, or children, or lands for my sake and the Gospels,
30 But he shall receive an [j]hundredfold, now at this present, houses, and brethren, and sisters, and mothers, and children, and lands [k]with persecutions, and in the world to come, eternal life.
31 But many that are first, shall be last, and the last, first.
32 ¶ [l]And they were in the way going up to Jerusalem, and Jesus went before them, and they were troubled, and as they followed, they were afraid, and Jesus took the twelve again, and began to tell them what things should come unto him,
33 Saying, Behold, we go up to Jerusalem, and the Son of man shall be delivered unto the high Priests, and to the Scribes, and they shall condemn him to death, and shall deliver him to the Gentiles.
34 And they shall mock him, and scourge him, and spit upon him, and kill him: but the third day he shall rise again.
35 ¶ [m]Then James and John the sons of Zebedee came unto him, saying, Master, [n]we would that thou shouldest do for us that we desire.
36 And he said unto them, What would ye I should do for you?
37 And they said to him, Grant unto us, that we may sit, one at thy right hand, and the other at thy left hand in thy glory.
38 But Jesus said unto them, Ye know not what ye ask. Can ye drink of the cup that I shall drink of, and be baptized with the baptism that I shall be baptized with?
39 And they said unto him, We can. But Jesus said unto them, Ye shall drink indeed of the cup that I shall drink of, and be baptized with the baptism wherewith I shall be baptized:
40 But to sit at my right hand and at my left, is not mine to give, but it shall be given to them for whom it is prepared.
41 And when the ten heard that, they began to disdain at James and John.
42 [o]But Jesus called them unto him, and said to them, Ye know that [p]they which are princes among the Gentiles, have domination over them, and they that be great among them, exercise authority over them.
43 But it shall not be so among you: but whosoever will be great among you, shall be your servant.
44 And whosoever will be chief of you, shall be the servant of all.
45 For even the Son of man came not to be served, but to serve, and to give his life for the ransom of many.
46 ¶ [q]Then they came to Jericho: and as he went out of Jericho with his disciples, and a great multitude, Bartimaeus the son of Timaeus, a blind man, sat by the wayside, begging.
47 And when he heard that it was Jesus of Nazareth, he began to cry, and to say, Jesus the Son of David, have mercy on me.
48 And many rebuked him, because he should hold his peace: but he cried much more, O Son of David, have mercy on me.
49 Then Jesus stood still, and commanded him to be called: and they called the blind, saying unto him, Be of good comfort: arise, he calleth thee.
50 So he threw away his cloak, and rose, and came to Jesus.
51 And Jesus answered, and said unto him, What wilt thou that I do unto thee? And the blind said unto him, Lord, that I may receive sight.
52 Then Jesus said unto him, Go thy way: thy faith hath saved thee. And by and by he received his sight, and followed Jesus in the way.
