       Jesus may have hinted at it.
       John 10:16 And other sheep I have, which are not of this fold:
       them also I must bring, and they shall hear my voice; and there
       shall be one fold, and one shepherd.
       I believe they are still not yet completely  one; but there are
       other religions do not conflict with Christianity in the least.
       I think Jesus taught them in other ways.  I do not believe God
       loved only the Jews or only Christians.
       There were the fallen angels, the ones which set themselves up
       as gods over the nations.  I believe some of their influence was
       cut off at the Crucifixion.  They sent a form of corrupted light
       to keep people in bondage; and when that influence was cut off,
       there was darkness for a while over the whole earth until a new
       Light appeared in the Heavens. I don't read this to mean
       physical darkness.
       Luke 23:44 And it was about the sixth hour, and there was a
       darkness over all the earth until the ninth hour.
       45 And the sun was darkened, and the veil of the temple was rent
       in the midst.
       The new sun was the Sun of Righteousness with healing in his
       wings.
       Malachi 4:2 But unto you that fear my name shall the Sun of
       righteousness arise with healing in his wings; and ye shall go
       forth, and grow up as calves of the stall.
       I believe the veil was also a spiritual veil in the spiritual
       Temple in Heaven.  Men and women had easier access.

       God is working his purpose out as year succeeds to year,
       God is working his purpose out and the time is drawing near;
       Nearer and nearer draws the time, the time that shall surely be,
       When the earth shall be filled with the glory of God as the
       waters cover the sea.

       Jesus bids us shine,
       With a clear, pure light,
       Like a little candle burning in the night;
       In this world of darkness, we must surely shine,
       You in your small corner,
       And I in mine

       Thanks Mike, a good reminder as my candle sometimes gets a
       little smoky and stands in need of a trim with the nastiness of
       todays happening.

       Re: Mike's Corner (Deism)
   DIR By: Mike Waters

       ---------------------------------------------------------
       Deism  is the belief, based solely upon logic and observation
       while rejecting any supernatural speculation, that a Supreme
       Being or God created the universe. As a philosophical position
       and rationalistic theology that rejects prophecies, revelations,
       and religious texts as legitimate or reliable sources of divine
       knowledge, Deism instead asserts that empirical reason and
       observation of the natural world are exclusively logical,
       reliable, and sufficient to determine the existence of a creator
       God.
       Unlike classical theism, many Deists believe in the existence of
       a creator God who only intervenes, on limited and particularly
       significant occasions, after having originally created the
       universe. Fundamentally, Deism emphasizes the concept of natural
       theology—that is, God's existence is revealed through nature
       itself.
       Since the 17th century, and during the Age of Enlightenment,
       various Western philosophers and theologians formulated a
       critical rejection of the several religious texts belonging to
       the many organized religions, and began to appeal only to truths
       that they felt could be established by reason as the exclusive
       source of divine knowledge. Such philosophers and theologians
       were called "Deists", and the philosophical/theological position
       they advocated is called "Deism"
       Me? .... I know diddly squat.

       Mike I remember Bo Diddley !!  so who is this Diddley squat?
       If that was the sum total of those who pontificated in the
       17century, they should have got a proper job imho (as Twink
       would say).
       I'll stick with "In the beginning GOD -----------" and the
       invisible became clearly seen by the things that HE made" even
       His Son Jesus.
       Is it still the 'called' and the fried in the U K, we are
       cooking here at +27c better than my old Army mate who lives in
       Spain.
       I wonder when the cutting starts on the stone in the
       mountain?????

       Awful news.
       Christine carted off to hospital with prognosis that worsens by
       the hour. Latest is that it may be 72 hours before they can say
       whether she can continue to  self administer paliative care at
       home and I fear for the alternative.

       The Hospital must have grave uncertainty and now forecast a
       further 48 hrs
       My son and daughter are flying over from France on Friday and
       staying for a week....I'm in such a mess of leaving taps on and
       flooding the bathroom, leaving gas ring on in the kitchen,
       getting in muddle with my medication etc.
       There's thoughts on whether I should go into a care Home
