In my Family, we Don’t Bicker

I did a better job with McMuffins today, and I came up with a hot zero-caffeine beverage I can stand to drink.

I gave up on making three muffins at once. I settled for two. This made it possible to put Canadian bacon in with the eggs in one skillet. I also put a covered dish in the oven and got it hot before I toasted the muffins. When they came out, I buttered them and put them in the dish. The humidity in the dish took a lot of the hardness out of them. A reader suggested applying the cheese to the muffins before putting them in the warming area, and if I make McMuffins again, I’ll give that a shot. It would surely increase the humidity.

As for a beverage, I put about half a teaspoon of true cinnamon in about 1-1/2 cups of milk with a tablespoon of sugar, a little salt, and some vanilla. Nuked it until hot. It was not bad. I would say it’s 90% as good as decaf, and that will do.

I used true cinnamon even though I like Chinese cinnamon better. There is a chemical in Chinese cinnamon which can affect the liver.

Things worked out okay, and I didn’t completely wreck the kitchen.

I barely cooked the bacon. I put it in the hot pan for a minute or less. It comes pre-cooked, so you don’t have to do much.

It’s still kind of small. A decent type of ham, like Serrano, would be better.

Ordinarily I don’t get out of bed until I’ve prayed for a couple of hours, but today I decided to eat first so I don’t have kitchen conflicts with my dad. He will stroll in when I’m cooking something and start running appliances as if I weren’t there. I would blame dementia if I could, but it’s just his way. Other people have never been fully real to him.

I don’t want him emptying the dishwasher, either. I don’t like eating off of things he has handled.

I ate breakfast with Youtube healing videos. I used to go to church and watch people talk ABOUT God, saying things that weren’t true or useful. Now I watch someone exercise God’s power. I used to hobnob with people who pretended to be saints on the weekends yet who knew almost nothing and lived pretty much as they wanted as soon as they got off the property. Being alone with videos of a sincere Christian is better than being in a crowd of 1500 hypocrites and willful ignoramuses.

There are a lot of ways to find out whether someone is ignorant about God. One quick way is to say, “What’s your sign?” If they don’t tell you astrology is demonic, you’ve smoked out a superficial Christian. Another way is to ask them about their political views. Having no views isn’t all that bad, but leftist views indicate a lack of familiarity with the Holy Spirit. Leftists have been working to undo God’s work for centuries.

I went to church with a lot of leftists who loved astrology. Women were the worst. They love turning the government into a husband/sugar daddy, and women are suckers for idolatry. Satan knew what he was doing when he went after Eve. If you want to hear about astrology, tarot cards, crystals, or yoga, your best bet is to talk to a woman, because most men don’t pay much attention to such things.

It makes sense that women would be more open to temptation, because a husband or father is supposed to be a shepherd of the family. Shepherds are supposed to keep sheep from straying.

I love watching far-off Christians on Youtube confirm what God has told me. For years, I’ve been telling people, “Everyone is spirit-led. The only question is which spirit they’re following.” The other day I watched a Tom Fischer video, and he said exactly the same thing. I have never heard anyone else say it. Not once in my life. But he recited it as though he were reading my mind. Why? Because God said it to both of us. Man, it’s nice when Christians have Holy Spirit harmony. But it’s so rare.

I knew a very arrogant man at my last church. When he gave his opinions about God, which were sometimes complete foolishness, he would say, “My revelation about this is…”, and he was clearly indicating that the things he said were opinions. He thought that was acceptable.

Revelation comes from only one source: God. Does God have opinions? Does that even make sense? Imagine God saying, “I could be wrong, but…”

God doesn’t have opinions. He has the truth. Only the ignorant have opinions. Revelation isn’t opinion, and opinion isn’t revelation.

I got a neat revelation from God, about the curse of illegal immigration. The Bible clearly states that a rebellious nation will be cursed with powerful aliens. I shared this publicly, and the arrogant man I’m talking about started rebuking me. He was a former illegal. It didn’t occur to him to ask God if I was right before he got in the face of the Holy Spirit. He was an emotional person, and he was not a listener. Dealing with him was like dealing with a rebellious woman with a short fuse. Men are supposed to be stable and level-headed.

I was sharing a genuine revelation with someone who had a poor prayer life and a lot of ambition, and he got in God’s way instead of assisting. This is normal, all over the world. The problem is worse than usual in Miami, but it’s bad everywhere. We don’t hear the Holy Spirit, so we think debate is a good thing instead of the curse it really is. If the body of believers is the machine, the Holy Spirit is the oil, and when the parts aren’t oiled, they grind against each other.

Being a Christian in Miami is like trying to farm on a rock mesa with little pockets of soil. There are very few opportunities to plant or grow anything. Miamians are the smartest people on earth, regardless of what their test scores say. They know absolutely everything.

It’s wonderful to turn on Youtube and see a few Christians in agreement with each other and God. I can’t tell you how strange it is to see it.

When the Holy Spirit is behind something, and people yield, things go smoothly. I see this in the evangelism Fischer and his friends do. They go up to some of the least-promising people imaginable–Jews, Europeans, and Muslims–and the first thing you know, those people are healed, and they’re accepting Jesus. Like it’s completely normal; not extraordinary in the least. I’ve done evangelism, and I’ve seen other people do it. Almost always, it makes people uncomfortable or angry, and they take off. When the Holy Spirit is with you, he shows you which fruit are ready to drop, so you get remarkable results when common sense says you should fail.

You have to stay away from pursuits God hasn’t prepared for you. They don’t work. It’s like trying to march into a wall of briars. The other day God told me something neat: you have to stay within your anointing. God will anoint (authorize) you to do certain specific things. If you do those things, he will help you and make it work. If you do other things, you are likely to fail. Worse, you may get success from Satan so you will become arrogant, lose your connection to God’s guidance, and keep wasting your time.

When Benny Hinn and Morris Cerullo started telling people God would make people rich for tithing and donating money, they went outside their anointing. God never authorized it, and he doesn’t back it up. When you give too much money to churches, it vanishes, and God doesn’t return it to you unless you repent. You can tithe yourself poor. Satan gives prosperity preachers success, even though their followers wither and go broke. He’s fattening them up like beef calves.

My last church taught the feel-good gospel and the money gospel, and Satan got free rein to destroy it, as I predicted. The man who got in my face with opinions was the pastor’s brother-in-law. He was a huge supporter. He was ambitious for God, which is always disturbing.

He was what you might call a Kool-Aid drinker. He kept his foot on the gas no matter what happened. He and his wife went from mere relatives to top authorities in the church, fast. Then the pastor got caught up in a sex scandal, and the church dissolved.

There should have been some self-examination, as well as some examination of the pastor and his doctrine, but the brother-in-law did what conceited authorities always do: he shot the messengers and abandoned the victim. “The corrupt priests aren’t the problem; Yeshua is the problem, because he criticized them in public.” “Jeremiah is the problem.” “Isaiah is the problem.” “Micaiah is the problem.” “Elijah is the problem.”

I am not planning to go to a bricks-and-mortar church yet. I ask God about it, and the message seems very clear: “NO.” I don’t know why he says that. I would like to be among Christians, even if I have very low expectations of the teaching I would receive and plan to ignore it.

It’s not, “No,” with a small “o.” It’s two capital letters!

Thank goodness for Youtube, the solid friends I have, and God’s presence. I assume I will someday be part of a group that meets to pray. Until then, I will be taken care of.
