O Lord, we know that You are everywhere,

The Lord's Prayer

Our Father, who art in heaven,
hallowed be thy Name,
thy kingdom come,
thy will be done,
on earth as it is in heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread.

And lead us not into temptation,
but deliver us from evil.
For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory,
for ever and ever. Amen.

"The Duel That Never Happened: George Washington vs. William Payne (1755)"

"When Washington, in command of the Virginia Rangers was waiting at
Alexandria the arrival of Braddock's forces, an exciting election contest
occurred between Mr. Fairfax and Mr. Payne for the House of Hurgesses.
Washington supported Fairfax with much zeal: and, high words passing
between him and Payne in the market square, Payne struck Washington a blow
which brought him to the earth. The troops rushed from the barracks, and
would have made short work of Payne, had not Washington pacified them,
assuring them that he knew the proper course to take in the premises.
Duels were not then under the ban of public opinion. All supposed that a
fight was imminent. Next morning, however, Washington sent for Payne, and
when the latter entered the room he saw on the table, not pistols, but a
decanter of wine and two glasses. 'Mr. Payne,' said Washington, 'to err is
human. I was wrong yesterday, but if you have had sufficient satisfaction,
let us be friends'. Weems relates that from that day Washington was
Payne's idea of true manhood."

Earth Day Song: "O God, This Precious Earth Thou Gave"

MIDI music file at http://www.patriot.net/users/bmcgin/terra12.mid
Separate HTML page at =>

O God, This Precious Earth Thou Gave

Lyrics, music, and MIDI arrangement by William E. McGinnis (1995)
Everything is Public Domain: you may use it freely, without
restriction.


Scriptural Authority

Scripture: GENESIS 1:27-28
(Composite Public Domain Translation)

So God created man in His own image,
In the image of God He created him;
Male and female He created them.
Then God blessed them, and God said to them,
"Be fruitful and multiply;
Fill the earth and subdue it;
Have dominion over the fish of the sea,
Over the birds of the air, and over
Every living thing that moves upon the earth."

* * *

Lyrics


"O God, This Precious Earth Thou Gave"
by William E. McGinnis

O God, this precious Earth Thou gave
To us to hold for Thee;
Thou gave to us dominion over
Land and over sea;
Thou gave us mighty power over
Creatures great and small;
The Earth: we are responsible
For caring for it all.

But when we look around we find
Our damage everywhere;
The robins and the sparrows must
Fly through polluted air;
The rolling rivers have become
Awash with our debris;
The oceans slowly fill with trash
Far as the eye can see.

The creatures once so plentiful
Can scarcely now be seen;
The forests are depleted now
That once were strong and green;
Where fish by hundreds once did swim
In rivers pure and clear,
The rivers now are toxic gray,
And fish do not appear.

Forgive us, God, for what we did
In carelessness and haste;
We never did intend to cause
Such damage and such waste;
So as in sorrow we repent,
We ask on bended knee
To give us, God, the strength now to
Restore the Earth for Thee.

Amen.

The Legitimate Authority Of Our Constitutional United States Government

The Legitimate Authority Of Our Constitutional United States Government

We, The People Of The United States Of America, Have The Legitimate
Authority And Responsibility To Govern Our Own Country - free from
domination by the Neo-Conservatives and their deregulated corporate
accomplices.

By Rev. Bill McGinnis, Director - LoveAllPeople.org

HTML version of this article, with expanded links and notes, is located at
http://www.loveallpeople.org/legitimateauthority.html

MP3 Reading At http://www.loveallpeople.org/legitimateauthority.mp3
(Public Domain)

Every American receives a legitimate inheritance, handed down by those who
lived and died here before us; and that inheritance is our Government, as
set forth by our Constitution. This Constitution gives to each American
the exact same rights and protections it gives to every other American,
including an equal share in the power of Government.

The American People of an earlier time created this Government, and they
clearly announced its purposes and objectives . . .

"We the People of the United States, in Order
to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, insure
domestic Tranquility, provide for the common
defence, promote the general Welfare, and secure
the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our
Posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution
for the United States of America."

- Preamble to the United States Constitution


And we, the American People today, are the "Posterity" mentioned above by
the Founders. We have now inherited the authority and responsibility to
maintain this Government according to the specifications established by
the Constitution. This authority does not belong to any King or any Upper
Class, or Nobility, or Corporations, or Religious Authorities, or Rich
People, or Well-Educated People, or Elected Politicians or any other
special person or group.
The American People are the sovereign power. We are self-governing. Acting
through our Government, under the Constitution, we can make or modify any
or all of the rules by which our economy and our country operate. We make
the laws; and we can unmake them. We create the corporations; and we can
un-create them. We have allowed some people to accumulate disproportionate
wealth and power; and we can disallow it. We even have the power to change
the Constitution, following the procedures set forth in the Constitution
for its own amendment. Our Government is a Democracy; it is ours. And it
belongs equally to all of us.

I hope and pray that We The People will be strong enough, and smart
enough, and diligent enough to take back this wonderful gift we have
inherited, and not let it be soiled and corrupted any further by this
misguided band of Neo-Conservatives who think it now belongs to them
alone.

Blessings to you. May God help us all.

Opening Song

Christ, The Lord, Is Risen Today
Words by John Wesley, music from Lyra Davidica, London, 1708.

CHRIST, THE LORD, IS RISEN TODAY - by Charles Wesley, 1707-1788 -
Public Domain

"CHRIST, the Lord, is risen to-day,"
Sons of men and angels say!
Raise your joys and triumphs high:
Sing, ye heavens; thou earth, reply.

Love's redeeming work is done;
Fought the fight, the battle won:
Lo! the sun's eclipse is o'er,
Lo! he sets in blood no more!

Vain the stone, the watch, the seal,
Christ hath burst the gates of hell:
Death in vain forbids his rise,
Christ hath opened Paradise.

Lives again our glorious King!
Where, O death, is now thy sting?
Once he died our souls to save;
Where's thy victory, boasting grave

Soar we now where Christ hath led,
Following our exalted Head:
Made like him, like him we rise,
Ours the cross, the grave, the skies.

King of glory! Soul of bliss!
Everlasting life is this,
Thee to know, thy power to prove,
Thus to sing, and thus to love.

The Lord's Prayer

The Lord, Himself, taught us to pray like this . . .


The Lord's Prayer

Our Father, who art in heaven,
hallowed be thy Name,
thy kingdom come,
thy will be done,
on earth as it is in heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread.
And forgive us our trespasses,
as we forgive those who trespass against us.
And lead us not into temptation,
but deliver us from evil.
For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory,
for ever and ever. Amen.

Prayer4You - "For Patience"

NOTE: When you read this prayer, try to imagine hearing my voice as I
speak
it to you. In this way, the prayer is reactivated, and it is the same
as if I were actually praying for you at that moment.
(Just like television prayers are reactivated when you watch
them, although the videotape may have been shot years before.)


Sometimes you feel that all is lost and gone;
You feel it is no use to carry on;
You cannot see the light that lies ahead.
I pray that you have patience at these times,
And know the Lord is working while you wait,
As after Jesus died upon the cross,
They didn't know that He would rise again.

Scriptures And Teachings - "The Resurrection Of Jesus Christ"


JOHN 20 (RSV)

The Resurrection Of Jesus Christ

_____________________________________________________________

1
Now on the first day of the week Mary Mag'dalene came to
the tomb early, while it was still dark, and saw that the
stone had been taken away from the tomb.
2
So she ran, and went to Simon Peter and the other
disciple, the one whom Jesus loved, and said to them,
"They have taken the Lord out of the tomb, and we do not
know where they have laid him."
3
Peter then came out with the other disciple, and they went
toward the tomb.
4
They both ran, but the other disciple outran Peter and
reached the tomb first;
5
and stooping to look in, he saw the linen cloths lying
there, but he did not go in.
6
Then Simon Peter came, following him, and went into the
tomb; he saw the linen cloths lying,
7
and the napkin, which had been on his head, not lying with
the linen cloths but rolled up in a place by itself.
8
Then the other disciple, who reached the tomb first, also
went in, and he saw and believed;
9
for as yet they did not know the scripture, that he must
rise from the dead.
10
Then the disciples went back to their homes.
11
But Mary stood weeping outside the tomb, and as she wept
she stooped to look into the tomb;
12
and she saw two angels in white, sitting where the body of
Jesus had lain, one at the head and one at the feet.
13
They said to her, "Woman, why are you weeping?" She said
to them, "Because they have taken away my Lord, and I do
not know where they have laid him."
14
Saying this, she turned round and saw Jesus standing, but
she did not know that it was Jesus.
15
Jesus said to her, "Woman, why are you weeping? Whom do
you seek?" Supposing him to be the gardener, she said to
him, "Sir, if you have carried him away, tell me where you
have laid him, and I will take him away."
16
Jesus said to her, "Mary." She turned and said to him in
Hebrew, "Rab-bo'ni!" (which means Teacher).
17
Jesus said to her, "Do not hold me, for I have not yet
ascended to the Father; but go to my brethren and say to
them, I am ascending to my Father and your Father, to my
God and your God."
18
Mary Mag'dalene went and said to the disciples, "I have
seen the Lord"; and she told them that he had said these
things to her.
19
On the evening of that day, the first day of the week, the
doors being shut where the disciples were, for fear of the
Jews, Jesus came and stood among them and said to them,
"Peace be with you."
20
When he had said this, he showed them his hands and his
side. Then the disciples were glad when they saw the Lord.
21
Jesus said to them again, "Peace be with you. As the
Father has sent me, even so I send you."
22
And when he had said this, he breathed on them, and said
to them, "Receive the Holy Spirit.
23
If you forgive the sins of any, they are forgiven; if you
retain the sins of any, they are retained."
24
Now Thomas, one of the twelve, called the Twin, was not
with them when Jesus came.
25
So the other disciples told him, "We have seen the Lord."
But he said to them, "Unless I see in his hands the print
of the nails, and place my finger in the mark of the
nails, and place my hand in his side, I will not believe."
26
Eight days later, his disciples were again in the house,
and Thomas was with them. The doors were shut, but Jesus
came and stood among them, and said, "Peace be with you."
27
Then he said to Thomas, "Put your finger here, and see my
hands; and put out your hand, and place it in my side; do
not be faithless, but believing."
28
Thomas answered him, "My Lord and my God!"
29
Jesus said to him, "Have you believed because you have
seen me? Blessed are those who have not seen and yet
believe."
30
Now Jesus did many other signs in the presence of the
disciples, which are not written in this book;
31
but these are written that you may believe that Jesus is
the Christ, the Son of God, and that believing you may
have life in his name.

Scriptures And Teachings
Luke 23 - The Trial And Crucifixion Of Jesus

MP3 audio file at http://www.patriot.net/users/bmcgin/luke23.mp3 - free,
Public Domain.

May the Lord bless these readings of His holy Word.

23:1 And the whole multitude of them arose, and led him unto Pilate.

23:2 And they began to accuse him, saying, We found this fellow
perverting the nation, and forbidding to give tribute to Caesar,
saying that he himself is Christ a King.

23:3 And Pilate asked him, saying, Are you the King of the Jews? And
he answered him and said, You say it.

23:4 Then said Pilate to the chief priests and to the people, I find
no fault in this man.

23:5 And they were the more fierce, saying, He stirs up the people,
teaching throughout all Jewry, beginning from Galilee to this place.

23:6 When Pilate heard of Galilee, he asked whether the man were a
Galilaean.

23:7 And as soon as he knew that he belonged unto Herod's
jurisdiction, he sent him to Herod, who himself also was at Jerusalem
at that time.

23:8 And when Herod saw Jesus, he was exceedingly glad: for had
desired to see him for a long time, because he had heard many things
of him; and he hoped to have seen some miracle done by him.

23:9 Then he questioned with him in many words; but he answered him
nothing.

23:10 And the chief priests and scribes stood and vehemently accused
him.

23:11 And Herod with his men of war treated him with contempt, and
mocked him and arrayed him in a gorgeous robe, and sent him again to
Pilate.

23:12 And the same day Pilate and Herod were made friends together:
for before they were at enmity between themselves.

23:13 And Pilate, when he had called together the chief priests and
the rulers and the people,

23:14 Said unto them, You have brought this man unto me, as one that
perverts the people: and, behold, I, having examined him before you,
have found no fault in this man touching those things whereof you
accuse him:

23:15 No, nor yet Herod: for I sent you to him; and, lo, nothing
worthy of death is done unto him.

23:16 I will therefore chastise him, and release him.

23:17 (For of necessity he must release one unto them at the feast.)

23:18 And they cried out all at once, saying, Away with this man, and
release unto us Barabbas:

23:19 (Who for a certain sedition made in the city, and for murder,
was cast into prison.)

23:20 Pilate therefore, willing to release Jesus, spoke again to
them.

23:21 But they cried, saying, Crucify him, crucify him.

23:22 And he said unto them the third time, Why, what evil has he
done? I have found no cause of death in him: I will therefore
chastise him, and let him go.

23:23 And they were instant with loud voices, requiring that he might
be crucified. And the voices of them and of the chief priests
prevailed.

23:24 And Pilate gave sentence that it should be as they required.

23:25 And he released unto them him that for sedition and murder was
cast into prison, whom they had desired; but he delivered Jesus to
their will.

23:26 And as they led him away, they laid hold upon one Simon, a
Cyrenian, coming out of the country, and on him they laid the cross,
that he might bear it after Jesus.

23:27 And there followed him a great company of people, and of women,
which also bewailed and lamented him.

23:28 But Jesus turning unto them said, Daughters of Jerusalem, weep
not for me, but weep for yourselves, and for your children.

23:29 For, behold, the days are coming, in which they shall say,
Blessed are the barren, and the wombs that never bore, and the paps
which never gave suck.

23:30 Then shall they begin to say to the mountains, Fall on us; and
to the hills, Cover us.

23:31 For if they do these things in a green tree, what shall be done
in the dry?

23:32 And there were also two other, malefactors, led with him to be
put to death.

23:33 And when they had come to the place, which is called Calvary,
there they crucified him, and the malefactors, one on the right hand,
and the other on the left.

23:34 Then said Jesus, Father, forgive them; for they know not what
they do. And they parted his clothing, and cast lots.

23:35 And the people stood beholding. And the rulers also with them
derided him, saying, He saved others; let him save himself, if he be
Christ, the chosen of God.

23:36 And the soldiers also mocked him, coming to him, and offering
him vinegar,

23:37 And saying, If you be the king of the Jews, save yourself.

23:38 And a superscription also was written over him in letters of
Greek, and Latin, and Hebrew, THIS IS THE KING OF THE JEWS.

23:39 And one of the malefactors which were hanged railed on him,
saying, If you be Christ, save yourself and us.

23:40 But the other answering rebuked him, saying, Do not you fear
God, seeing you are in the same condemnation?

23:41 And we indeed justly; for we receive the due reward of our
deeds: but this man has done nothing amiss.

23:42 And he said unto Jesus, Lord, remember me when you come into
your kingdom.

23:43 And Jesus said unto him, Truthfully I say unto you, Today shall
you be with me in paradise.

23:44 And it was about the sixth hour, and there was a darkness over
all the earth until the ninth hour.

23:45 And the sun was darkened, and the veil of the temple was tore
in the midst.

23:46 And when Jesus had cried with a loud voice, he said, Father,
into your hands I commend my spirit: and having said thus, he gave up
the ghost.

23:47 Now when the centurion saw what was done, he glorified God,
saying, Certainly this was a righteous man.

23:48 And all the people that came together to that sight, beholding
the things which were done, smote their breasts, and returned.

23:49 And all his acquaintance, and the women that followed him from
Galilee, stood afar off, beholding these things.

23:50 And, behold, there was a man named Joseph, a counselor; and he
was a good man, and a just:

23:51 (The same had not consented to the counsel and deed of them;)
he was of Arimathaea, a city of the Jews: who also himself waited for
the kingdom of God.

23:52 This man went unto Pilate, and begged the body of Jesus.

23:53 And he took it down, and wrapped it in linen, and laid it in a
sepulcher that was hewn in stone, in which never man before was laid.

23:54 And that day was the preparation, and the sabbath drew on.

23:55 And the women also, which came with him from Galilee, followed
after, and beheld the sepulcher, and how his body was laid.

23:56 And they returned, and prepared spices and ointments; and
rested the sabbath day according to the commandment.
