THANKSGIVING 2011! 11/20/11

I WAS IN HIGHSCHOOL during the 50's. A movie
came out called “Frankenstein 1970". I thought; “WOW” 1970; that hast to be a futuristic movie! Here we are in 2011 and the future is still before us. I am more and more convinced that knowing our past, prepares us for the future. Today I realize that historical revisionism was taking place even while I was in Highschool, but didn’t become a term until the last decade. “What is historical revisionism?” I thought you would never ask! It is changing our history to suit those who want to change the mind set of people.

WE HAVE BEEN reviewing “The Truth Project!” It is a series of 12 video’s created by Focus on the Family and taught by Del Tacket. If you haven’t seen this world view material, it is a must for all Christians. The 6th video is on history; biblical, world and American! If you haven’t been aware that many school books have been rewritten to eliminate all references to God, or factual documentation has been altered to create a different past to those being taught today, then you are being blind sided.

EVER SINCE 1859, when the book “The Origin of the Species” written by Darwin came out, our history has been degraded to theory , and slowly became integrated into our educational system When I was in school it was just beginning to show it’s ugly head but not able to change what we had already been taught. Today, many have chosen to be politically correct and have become tolerant and paid no mind, to how books have changed and newer methods have taken the place of reading, writing and arithmetic.

WITH THANKSGIVING upon the horizon, Mr. Tacket showed us once again how the Mayflower pact has been changed to eliminate any reference to God. It is being taught that it was not Godly men who basically moved their church to America to further the kingdom of God, but some foolish men with a cause that did not have anything to do with divine providence.

WHAT ARE WE thankful for on this third Thursday of the eleventh month, that we sit around a table to share our bounty? Is it for family and friends? Is it for our jobs and homes? Is it for the food that is set before us? What is it we should be thanking God for? Could it be home and family? The country we live in? The size of our garage for our many cars? What is it? Why did our first president in 1989 set aside a day for national thanksgiving? Why do we look forward to it every year with anticipation?

AS I WATCHED this video for the third time, I realized that our thanksgiving should be entirely focused on God the Father who gave us a place called America where we could, from our youth, know him and serve him without interference or persecution. Because of all the alterations that have come upon our learning institutions, those being taught today are leaning towards destruction. Not just of their minds but also their souls. I am serious when I say; “Wake Up America!” “Look at the changes that have been made within our own country since you were a child!” “What were you taught?” “What do you still believe?”

IN THE BOOK of John, Jesus talks about the good shepherd. In verse 1 and 2 He talks about those who do not enter the sheepfold by the door but climbs in by another way. He calls them a thief and a robber! But the one who enters by the door is the shepherd! The sheep that follow the shepherd, knows his voice and follows him. “The thief comes only to steal and to kill and to destroy; I came that they may have life and have it abundantly.” John 10:10 Who are we to follow? The thief who enters secretly or the Shepherd who comes through the door and calls us by name! I believe it is the Shepherd we follow!

MY SUGGESTION to you is to get a very old set of Encyclopedias; history books; parliamentary procedures; Art of Language and English, Beginning Arithmetic and anything else that was written in the early 1800's and the early 1900's, to recapture our history as we were taught. Many bible translations are circumspect so I suggest you learn who the commentaries are written by, before you purchase. Early revisions are probably more sound than later ones. It depends who the writers were taught by!

OH, I am not talking totally doom and gloom! Our Savior came to seek and to save the lost. We, who claimed Him as our Savior are no longer lost. We may be persecuted today by the world wanting God out of public places, but they can never take Him out of our hearts and our lives! When Jesus said we would have life abundantly, He wasn’t kidding! My life is full; His love is everlasting; My joy is complete; His love is everlasting; My soul finds peace and content because His love is everlasting. Oh, if only the world could come to know His love! Let that be our prayer this thanksgiving! By Jane Ann Crenshaw 11/14/11
