Welcome to General Chat - GAW Community Area

This General Chat area started off as a place for people to talk about things that are off topic, however it has quickly evolved into a community and has become an integral part of the GAW experience for many of us.

Based on its evolving needs and plenty of user feedback, we are trying to bring some order and institute some rules. Please make sure you read these rules and participate in the spirit of this community.

Rules for General Chat

• Be respectful to each other. This is of utmost importance, and comments may be removed if deemed not respectful.

• Avoid long drawn out arguments. This should be a place to relax, not to waste your time needlessly.

• Personal anecdotes, puzzles, cute pics/clips - everything welcome

• Please do not spam at the top level. If you have a lot to post each day, try and post them all together in one top level comment

• Try keep things light. If you are bringing in deep stuff, try not to go overboard.

• Things that are clearly on-topic for this board should be posted as a separate post and not here (except if you are new and still getting the feel of this place)

• If you find people violating these rules, deport them rather than start a argument here.

• Feel free to give feedback as these rules are expected to keep evolving

In short, imagine this thread to be a local community hall where we all gather and chat daily. Please be respectful to others in the same way

Rules For the rest of the Site also accessible on the sidebar.

55-minutes (the first 4 minutes are ads, last few minutes credits, so about 45-minutes of content)

My TLDW:

He starts by explaining that patents can be seized by the government if they “are important for national security.”

Then he talks about a couple of inventors who invented cars that could run on literal gas vapors, making mileage like 200 miles a gallon (first one was over 100 years ago, I think the second one was sixties?). Then a guy who invented a car that ran on water (early 70s). Then some people who created machines that could generate energy out of the atmosphere, which is basically unlimited free energy (one of them in the 60s).

All these people had their patents seized, labs broken into and all their material stolen and were either financially/professionally ruined or killed (or both).

Interestingly, one guy re-patented all these things with the US military as the owner of the patents, so it appears that the military has stolen these patents and are utilizing these technologies while keeping them from the public.

He goes on to talk about the serious flaws with the current green energy “solutions” being touted.

He shows that there never was an energy shortage, it was a control tool and that the green energy “solutions” are simply measures that will ensure that powerful people stay in power.

Thru the Bible - Minute with McGee Dr. J. Vernon McGee

What Hurts The Cause Of Christ

When you’ve got a heart for God, you’ll have a heart for other folk. You’ll want to be helpful to them and a blessing to them, friends. And you can’t be hateful and be fundamental at the same time. All of this criticism today, all of the unloveliness today, it hurts the cause of Christ. God told His people in their day, “Away with it. I don’t want it. It’s no good.” You’re just going through a form. You’re playing church. And you may be having a little fun at it, although I don’t think you’re having fun. I think it’s become a burden to you, but you go through with it. Because you’re trying to keep up a front before the world. God says, “Let’s come clean. Let’s demonstrate in our lives that we’ve got reality.” This is tremendous.

_Daily Promises _

But now thus saith the LORD that created thee, O Jacob, and he that formed thee, O Israel, Fear not: for I have redeemed thee, I have called [thee] by thy name; thou [art] mine. (Isaiah 43:1)

O church, remember that Christ is the fulfilment of Israel and the seed of Abraham so long awaited by God's people. And recall that you are His bride! His redemption is your redemption! And even as He bears the name of God, so do you bear His own name! He is Christ and you are His Christians! Having been cleansed and made righteous by His blood, you are now counted worthy the honour of bearing the name above all names! Wonder of wonders-take joy, O bride of the Lamb!

Would You Like To Make Any Changes?

He shall see of the travail of his soul, and shall be satisfied: by his knowledge shall my righteous servant justify many; for he shall bear their iniquities. — Isaiah 53:11

You have the opportunity to make changes today. Would you like to make any changes?
