Daily journal June 4th, 2000 by William Thomas Thompson, let us worship.

 

On this Sunday when history records the heathen named it this because they worshipped the sun on Sunday.  The church world holds it as sacred as the Sabbath day.  One of the 10 Commandments is to remember the Sabbath day and keep Holy and I fully agree with this.  Man should not work on the Sabbath day neither should people buy and sell on the Sabbath day.  God will hold us accountable for our disregard of the Commandments given to Moses written in stone about 4000 years ago.  What is church? It is important for us to know the purpose of the church, not my church but God's church.  The steepled church today has compromised truth and accepted false religion.  Basically the church preaches and teaches against nothing, it has compromised with the government and the world, which are one in the same.  Political correctness has replaced the rule of God in the church of today for the most part but before that the church had already drifted into a state-of complacently were God was no longer in control.  Let us reconsider the true church and what it stands for.  Let us search our souls and align ourselves with the New Testament Church that began on the day of Pentecost and still lives in hearts of genuine Christians of today.  Let us call it like it is a not think that God has changed his ways or that the judgment Day is delayed.  We're facing critical times and we need to be in prayer daily before God on our knees in humility.  Today I ate lunch with a friend at the famous buffet nearby where meat is abundant and fried foods tempt the eyes.  There is death on that line to be had if we could dissipate and consume the hydrogenated oils.  The ice cream is my greatest temptation although I cannot tolerate one grain of sugar in my system.  I suffer when I consume refined sugar and it is in the slaw, salad dressing, and creamed corn and in many other items on the buffet not to mention iced tea.  We should feel good and discipline our bodies to eat right so that we may serve God with a clear mind and heart.

Sunday the Sabbath if it is our Sabbath is a day of rest and we should let our stomachs rest as well by not eating heavy on our Sabbath whether it be Saturday or Sunday.  Let us refrain from gluttony, which I believe to be a Sin.  Eating the wrong foods I believe is also a sin if we know it will harm us.  Our bodies are a temple for the Holy Spirit and we should keep it clean and healthy without excess for personal enjoyment.  I have learned to enjoy healthy food including spinach mostly raw.  We cook and kill our food before we consume it and ad taste mostly by adding sugar which causes severe health problems including diabetes.  If you want to feel good eliminate sugar.  This is not just my problem it’s everyone's problem.  Animals do not eat sweets neither do they cook their foods.  Meat eating animals have short lives and we will also if we eat meats.  I'm determined to be meat free in my life here and now. The body burns sugar fast while it stores fat if you give it sugar to run on. Fat burns slow and you feel good when your body is regulated.

    Until you pray, read the Word and meditate on the Lord, your day has not begun.

I am not hooked on television but I do like to watch 60 minutes on CBS.  Today they did a report on the killing of women in the nation of India, which has nearly 1 billion people living, and most of them are vegetarians.  Hinduism is the religion national for India.  A tradition of this people is that a young lady or her family must pay dowry to a young man for marriage and they sell people and buy people like cattle in a land where cows are sacred.  This tradition has gone to the extreme and if the dowry is not paid many of them torch their wives to death by fire.  This ungodly tradition needs to be stopped and I'm glad 60 minutes is exposing it although we knew it was going on before now.  It is greed gone to seed and it is murder unpunished. The church of the free world should condemn this murdering practice but instead they condone abortion here in the so call free world.

 

Keep your body moving as God intended and never rest without exercise.   A dormant body will give out and not last long when.  Exercise daily when you first arise and before you sleep you must burn out the energy consumed.  Christians always have plenty to do in obedience to God in His service.
