I’m at peace in the web
Of your love

God is fighting for us,
pushing back the darkness
Lighting up the Kingdom
that cannot be shaken
In the Name of Jesus,
enemy’s defeated
And we will shout it out,
shout it out
The resurrection
power of Christ
Alive in me and I am free
In Jesus’ Name

‘It may be the Devil or it might be the Lord
But you’re gonna have to serve somebody’
You may be a construction worker workin’ on a home
Might be livin’ in a mansion, you might live in a dome
You may own guns and you may even own tanks
You may be somebody’s landlord, you may even own banks
But you’re gonna have to serve somebody (serve somebody)
Yes, you’re gonna have to serve somebody (serve somebody)
Well, it may be the Devil or it might be the Lord
But you’re gonna have to serve somebody (serve somebody)
Written to President George W. Bush, who claimed he was a Christian, and then sent Americans to displace, murdered or maimed millions of Iraqis who did nothing to us. He then laughed about it in a public dinner slide show, about not being able to find the weapons of mass destruction in a room in the White House: “Nope, no weapons over there … maybe under here?”

Dave VanKleist takes him on:
Will you show me in a Bible verse, a proverb or a psalm?
Well I ask you ‘Christian’ president, ‘who would Jesus bomb?’
The music video features images of legacy rock stars including Gene Simmons of KISS, Mick Jagger of The Rolling Stones, and Dave Grohl of Foo Fighters among others. The images of legacy acts are accompanied by previous headlines and quotes from the performers as they threw support behind government mandates, performed shows exclusively for the vaccinated, and shunned fans who questioned government mandates.
“Well there ain’t no rock and roll / Ever since they sold out Rolling Stone,” Skistimas sings. “All the words that were sung in the past / Will never feel the same when we’re looking back.”
The rebellious anthem also throws criticism towards the Woodstock generation as Skistimas declares, “There ain’t no peace and love / Ever since the sixties kids grew up.” …
“The blues has lost its soul / All the punks gave the man control / And every pop star’s bought and sold,” Skistimas sings.
Five Times August also criticizes Bob Dylan and Joni Mitchell, whose songs famously discussed civil rights, corporatism, and featured anti-war sentiments, saying “no one stuck around for their protest job.” (story)
Some of the songs aren’t Godly, but reading this portion of Revelation 21 at the start is AMAZING — what’s in store for the Godly and the ungodly, including ‘cowardly,’ ‘sexually immoral’ and ‘all liars’:
Then I saw “a new heaven and a new earth,” for the first heaven and the first earth had passed away, and there was no longer any sea. 2 I saw the Holy City, the new Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, prepared as a bride beautifully dressed for her husband. 3 And I heard a loud voice from the throne saying, “Look! God’s dwelling place is now among the people, and he will dwell with them. They will be his people, and God himself will be with them and be their God. 4 ‘He will wipe every tear from their eyes. There will be no more death’ or mourning or crying or pain, for the old order of things has passed away.”
5 He who was seated on the throne said, “I am making everything new!” Then he said, “Write this down, for these words are trustworthy and true.”
6 He said to me: “It is done. I am the Alpha and the Omega, the Beginning and the End. To the thirsty I will give water without cost from the spring of the water of life. 7 Those who are victorious will inherit all this, and I will be their God and they will be my children. 8 But the cowardly, the unbelieving, the vile, the murderers, the sexually immoral, those who practice magic arts, the idolaters and all liars—they will be consigned to the fiery lake of burning sulfur. This is the second death.”
Woke up this morning
And the first thing I did see
Was mountains rising to the sky
On every side of me
I prefer Glenn Campbell’s version, but Jimmy Webb just mentioned James Taylor recorded his song too, and this has footage of the amazing Redwoods!

Peaceful and Repeatable!
Amazing! Frank Zappa’s insight on TalmudVision’s affect on us already back then in 1973!: “I’m the Slime!”
I am gross and perverted
I’m obsessed ‘n deranged
I have existed for years
But very little has changed
I’m the tool of the government
And industry too
For I am destined to rule
And regulate you
I may be vile and pernicious
But you can’t look away
I make you think I’m delicious
With the stuff that I say
I’m the best you can get
Have you guessed me, yet?
I’m the slime oozin’ out
From your TV set
You will obey me while I lead you
And eat the garbage that I feed you
Until the day that we don’t need you
Don’t go for help, no one will heed you
Your mind is totally controlled
It has been stuffed into my mold
And you will do as you are told
Until the rights to you are sold
That’s right, folks
Don’t touch that dial
Well, I am the slime from your video
Oozin’ along on your livin’ room floor
I am the slime from your video
Can’t stop the slime, people, lookit me go

Amazing; though, we actually do need a ticket: abide in Christ with a clear conscience. Then we’ll have faith to enter, and not be ashamed when we see Jesus face to Face.
People get ready, there’s a train a comin’
You don’t need no baggage, you just get on board
All you need is faith, to hear the diesels hummin’
Don’t need no ticket, you just thank the Lord
So people get ready, for the train to Jordan
Picking up passengers coast to coast
Faith is the key, open the doors and board ’em
There’s hope for all, among those loved the most
There ain’t no room for the hopeless sinner
Whom would hurt all mankind, just to save his own, believe me now
Have pity on those whose chances grow thinner
For there is no hiding place, against the kingdom’s throne
Amazing note bending in second half!

A big pet peeve of mine: Auto-Tune’s dehumanization of music, mind-controlling Americans into automatons.
In this video I discuss how the use of Auto-Tune in recent decades has opened the door to A.I. music.
Heavy. So many people don’t have peace.
‘The Pretender” on repeat

Hard not to cry during some of this. Karen’s pristinely pure voice, the harmonies, and dying so young.
Would people even be interested in music like this today? There was wholesomeness back then: white instead of dark.
