There are a total of 35 principles on his Blog. Read them all.
Leadership principle #1
What you build it with, you must maintain. People come for the
dynamic created. If the dynamic changes, then people will either have to
change or they will leave. This is why leaders are slow to change.
Leadership Principle #2
If leaders do not lead, then gifts reign. Gifts seem to function more
freely when leaders are not in place. But probably what is functioning
is not true or full gifting but mixtures of both the Holy Spirit and the
human spirit.
Leadership Principle #3
It is better to create than to inherit a ministry. When you inherit
a ministry, you inherit all the problems you did not create. Thus, you
do not know the root of what you are facing. You can only be responsible
for what you have created or allowed!
Leadership Principle #4 All problems in ministry are due to weak relationships. Weak relationships cause disputes, murmuring and gossip.
Leadership principle #5
All people come through the doors of a gathering because they have a
problem. The sooner you discover the problem the healthier the Body
gathering will be.
Leadership Principle #6
The greatest thing a leader can do is to teach their people to hear the
voice of God for themselves. If this is done, counseling is
nonexistent, mistakes are few and advancement is great.
Leadership Principle #7
The greatest role of a leader in a service is not to deliver a message
but to make sure the flow of the Holy Spirit is not interrupted and
stays on track.
Leadership Principle #8
The greatest gift a leader should seek is the gift of discernment. Not
only will the motive of hearts be seen clearly to receive help and avoid
problems but it fine tunes the spirit within to be in tune with God.

Another Not Knot
I really enjoy wearing different knots to work. They can me a great conversation starter with employees and guests that come into the restaurant. Today's knot is The Sidewinder Knot.
New Age Church
There is a strange crossover into new age icons going on in the church, particularly in charismatic churches. Tails-men. Icons. Symbols. Jesus is being obscured by these things.. I will now tell you what they are, some people will unfriend me for truth, but I am compelled. Crucifixes as a power icon against evil, gems, healing stones, holy water, water from the Jordon (don't drink it), Amethysts, blessed prayer cloths (I believe in this but not as merchandise), Daily or even weekly communion to get your sins forgiven (the point is not that), OIL... lots of it (I believe that setting aside oil for anointing (makes Holy) is a good thing but not the selling of). We have made a house of prayer into a house of merchandise. IF you GIVE someone any of these things freely, I have no objection. IF you SELL these things or as a thank you gift for an offering (same difference) you are merchandising. There are lots of other things that have become iconography. They have caused people to think that unless they have this or that... they can't worship God right. It's deception. EVEN the selling of the BIBLE can become such. The BIBLE can become an icon... and that wasn't the purpose.
Media Not Clamoring To Interview Benghazi Survivors
Four Americans dead, all kinds of political intrigue swirls around the story, and there remains an untold tale about what was likely a harrowing escape; and yet there is no indication whatsoever from the media that they are at all interested in interviewing the survivors of the Sept. 11 anniversary attacks on our consulate in Libya.
This fact only seems counter-intuitive when we're talking about a real news media, not a media desperate to protect President Obama from any political damage that might result from an inconvenient narrative launched by a survivor. Thankfully, Republican lawmakers are eager to do the job the media won't:
Republican lawmakers are threatening to subpoena U.S. survivors of the terrorist attack in Benghazi.

Is
there anything on the other side of the veil after physical death? Dr.
Eben Alexander III has been an academic neurosurgeon for the last 25
years trained by Harvard. He did not
believe in consciousness, free will or the existence of a non-physical
spirit. Trained in western medical school and surrounded by medical
colleagues who are deeply invested in the materialism view of the
universe, Dr. Alexander believed that so-called "consciousness" was only
an illusion created by the biochemical functioning of the brain.
Dr. Alexander would have held this view to his own death bed had it not been for his experiencing an event so bizarre and miraculous that it defies all conventional scientific explanation: Dr. Alexander was in a coma for seven days and experienced a vivid journey into the afterlife. He was guided by an angelic being and shown the Divine Source. He then returned to his physical body, experienced a miraculous healing, and went on to write the NY Times #1 best selling book "Proof of Heaven." What Dr. Alexander confirms is that our life on planet Earth is a "test" of personal growth, and that the way to make progress in this test is to overcome evil while spreading love and compassion. Here are some other notable points he made.
• The experience of the afterlife was so "real" and expansive that the experience of living as a human on Earth seemed like an artificial dream by comparison.
• The fabric of the afterlife was pure LOVE. Love dominated the afterlife to such a huge degree that the overall presence of evil was infinitesimally small.
• In the afterlife, all communication was telepathic. There was no need for spoken words, nor even any separation between the self and everything else happening around you.
• The moment you asked a question in your mind, the answers were immediately apparent in breathtaking depth and detail. There was no "unknown" and the mere asking of a question was instantly accompanied by the appearance of its answers.
We could say he was "just dreaming". But would a Harvard neurosurgeon really throw his credibility out the window for a mere dream? There are other cases, such as the case of Al Sullivan, who left his body at death and then returned to his physical body after it had been revived. Before entering back to his physical body, he was able to look around the room and made very specific and precise observations of what was occurring in the room while having zero brain wave activity. He woke up and asked the doctor why he kept wiping his hand under his armpit, along with other strange verifications that could have only been known through direct observation.
Children, Atheists, brain surgeons, psychologists, doctors, and other credible believable people have these experiences all the time and have changed professions and lifestyles because of them. Is it fair to say they were all figments of their imagination just because they don't have physical proof of it? How are they able to make precise and accurate observations of what is taking place in the room while being clinically dead?

2008 Wayback Machine is ON.... and it's not good
I remember it well. Some of you do too. The market had collapsed. The banks and brokerage companies were in big trouble. Auto companies were going broke. States were not making it. Cities collapsing. The VIX was at an all time high. People were terrified.
It was the end of a long session of insanity in the market. Irrational exuberance it had been called. It was correction long overdue.
I railed against the response to this insanity when the collapse came. I was not alone. I did not prevail in my opinions. Now I am convinced I was right. What if common sense had reigned and not political expediency, we would be far better off today than we are now. Here are the things I would have done or not done:
Let the banks that were weak go broke. There were plenty of strong banks positioned to pick them up if they had failed. That's the way free enterprise works. It would have been far better then pouring money down a rat hole and never get it back as we did. Supporting people who simply failed. They were not worthy of our support and did not deserve the bailouts we gave them.
The insurance companies that seemed so essential that we poured billions into them for no good reason. AIG as an example. I know the economic arguments. They were guarantors for loans and under writings. There were others willing to take those risks.
The brokerage houses that seemed so essential should have been allowed to go broke. The customers would not have been harmed. There was no danger... their interests would have been taken up by others anxious to make money on their accounts.
The automobile companies should have been allowed to fold up. The residue would have been picked up quickly by other companies. Yes the unions and their contracts would have been destroyed. Yes some supplier companies would have gone broke. That's what happens. People would have been out of work...for a while. Soon someone would have come in as they did with Hostess Twinkies, make new deals, new contracts with labor and we wouldn't have that stupid Volt car today. Chrysler might have been picked up by Fiat anyway. There was and is plenty of money available to buy up the assets.
Letting failing companies, states and industries would have been far preferable to what we have now. Our national debt would be HALF what it is now. We would have far more powerful industries, banks, labor market, insurance, brokerage and states would have already come to reckoning.
THEN the worst thing we did was pour money into the economy. I oppose Keynesian economics of any kind. I despise the government picking winners. That's what we did. Green energy that has turned out to be a total dud. Windmills, ethanol, solar panels. Money wasted. Then the stimulus. Much of it spent to prop up failing systems of teachers, unions and state governments.
IF we had put HALF the stimulus money into Nuclear Power Plants we would have less.
So much of what we were told would save jobs, cost them. Yes, the downturn would have been severe, the unemployment huge, the pain incredible. YET it would have been short term. The rubble would have contained enormous opportunity for the bold. March 6, 2009 might have been 3000 not 6000, yet today we would be on solid footing.
We already had enough laws in the bankruptcy code to allow things to recover. All the money we spent propping up failing industry was wasted.
There are many many other programs that were wastes. It was non partisan. I remember BEN STEIN who was on TV saying we HAVE to do this. Our economy will collapse. He is supposed to be a republican. I screamed at the TV set and said NO IT WON'T.
But in the end the big banks, big insurance, big government, big business, big labor won.
We are worse off for it.

Pope Francis - History's Final Pontiff?
St. Malachy, an Irish saint and the archbishop of Armagh, who lived from 1094 to 1148, described the “final pope” this way: “In the extreme persecution of the Holy Roman Church, there will sit Peter the Roman, who will nourish the sheep in many tribulations; when they are finished, the City of Seven Hills will be destroyed, and the dreadful judge will judge his people.”
As WND reported, he described the penultimate pope, which Horn believes is Benedict, as “Gloria Olivae,” or “Glory of the Olive.”
Benedict was not a Benedictine priest, yet he chose the name of the founder of the Order of Saint Benedict, which also is known as the Olivetans
The symbol of the Benedictine order includes an olive branch.
That Bergoglio--the final Pope on St. Malachy's list and the one prophesied to reign over the church as it enters the Great Tribulation period--named himself after Saint Francis of Assisi is intriguing given that shortly before his death Assisi prophesied that at the time of the tribulation a man would "be raised to the Pontificate, who, by his cunning, will endeavor to draw many into error and death… Some preachers will keep silence about the truth, and others will trample it under foot and deny it…for in those days Jesus Christ will send them not a true Pastor, but a destroyer” [Works of the Seraphic Father St. Francis of Assisi (1182–1226), Washbourne, 1882 AD, 248].
Furthermore, in naming himself after Assisi, Bergoglio branded himself after an Italian (Roman) priest whose original name was Francesco di Pietro (Peter) di Bernardone -- literally, Peter the Roman.

5 Controversial Ways to Enjoy the Decline of America

Roman Empire since around the 1970s, and I’m sure those
Oh
that Truth-Knowing Pastors and Senior Leaders would become Givers of
Truth, Raw Truth and stop hiding behind obscure and deep things hoping
that they won't blow up their church.
"Truth
may be out of fashion. It may be out of favor. It may be out of
friends. But it is never out of date; it is timeless in its existence.
If there no such thing as truth, eternal, universal, absolute,
immutable, inerrant truth, I am a liar
when I walk to this pulpit, and you are a fool for coming to hear me.
Jesus said, 'You shall know the truth.' That is, not only is there such a
thing as absolute truth, but you can absolutely know it. You see, there
is a school of thought today that doesn’t necessarily deny truth, it
just simply says nobody can know truth. Well, what good is truth if you
can’t know it?" ~ Dr. James Merritt
Thinking about the Lottery.
IF you won the lottery, what would you do with your
money? I know most people would say, give to the Church, help their
relatives, pay your bills, help poor people out, fix up their house, get
a better car. That's all good. Most
lottery winners are broke in less than a decade anyway. SO, if you did
what would you do? Like the Hills of Dearborn? Guess what, I have
lived and worked in VERY POOR countries. Winning the lottery big for
them is equivalent to our receiving $2000 scot free. Yet we get that
per month without much hassle. Do we do what we say we would do with
our "Winnings"? Are you supporting your fellowship, helping your
relatives, helping poor people, keeping your house (no matter how
humble) up, paying your bills, keeping your car in decent repair? IF
you are not faithful in little God won't trust you in being faithful in
much. The secret to God's outpouring of provision and protection is
wrapped up in your core generosity. We think we are testing God when we
give, but he is actually testing us when he gives us. Passing the test
makes all the difference.
From Mike Huckabee
You always hear of lottery winners who go wild and end up broke. But that won’t happen to today’s Huck’s Heroes, Mark and Cindy Hill of Dearborn, Missouri. They held one of two winning tickets for the biggest Powerball jackpot ever, worth over $136 million after taxes. So are they buying gold-plated limos and bathing in champagne? Actually, they’re sharing it with their neighbors. Dearborn has fewer than 500 residents. But thanks to the Hills, it’s about to have a new fire station, a ball field, a scholarship fund for high school students, and a big down payment on a new sewage treatment plant. Cindy said for some reason, God put all that money in their hands, and she thinks it was to make sure it went to the right things. Say, maybe this is God’s way to telling us to put the Hills in charge of the federal budget.

Married or not??
- Two heads are better than One
- God will provide
- Two can live as cheaply as one
- It is better to be together and stay warm than to be alone and freeze in the dark
- God provides when God provides ... children never really cost
- Marriage is a blessing when it works well. Out of order it is painful. Either way it's worth the risk.
- The agreement of two in believing God for provision is ten times as strong (ten thousand to flight)
- If everyone waited to be able to afford it to be married or have children, neither would ever happen.
- Marriage is the ultimate leap of faith.
- A good woman will double a man's capacity or half it if she is not.
- Who you marry matters, before and after you are married to him or her.
- The woman behind the man STILL matters.
- Our mouths will build up or tear down the productive capacity in our marriages.
- Proverbs is FULL of marriage advise and counsel. Use it. Read a chapter a day for a month then read it again. And again. See the real balance. It's stunning once you grasp it. And in today's world counter cultural.

MUSLIM HERITAGE IN America :
Have you ever been to a Muslim hospital, heard a Muslim orchestra, seen a Muslim band march in a parade, witnessed a Muslim charity, shaken hands with a Muslim Girl Scout, seen a Muslim Candy Striper, or seen a Muslim do anything that contributes positively to the American way of life ????
The answer is no, you did not. Just ask yourself WHY ?
Barack Obama, during his Cairo speech, said:
AN AMERICAN CITIZEN'S RESPONSE:
Dear Mr. Obama:
> Were those Muslims that were in America when the Pilgrims first landed? Funny, I thought they were Native American Indians.
> Were those Muslims that celebrated the first Thanksgiving day? Sorry again, those were Pilgrims and Native American Indians.
> Can you show me one Muslim signature on the United States Constitution?
Declaration of Independence ? Bill of Rights?
Didn't think so.
Did Muslims fight for this country's freedom from England? No.
Did Muslims fight during the Civil War to free the slaves in America ? No, they did not. In fact, Muslims to this day are still the largest traffickers in human slavery. Your own half-brother, a devout Muslim, still advocates slavery himself, even though Muslims of Arabic descent refer to black Muslims as "pug nosed slaves." Says a lot of what the Muslim world really thinks of your family's "rich Islamic heritage," doesn't it Mr. Obama?
Where were Muslims during the Civil Rights era of this country? Not present.
There are no pictures or media accounts of Muslims walking side by side with Martin Luther King, Jr. or
> helping to advance the cause of Civil Rights.
Where were Muslims during this country's Woman's Suffrage era? Again, not present. In fact, devout Muslims demand that women are subservient to men in the Islamic culture. So much so, that often they are beaten for not wearing the 'hajib' or for talking to a man who is not a direct family member or their husband. Yep, the Muslims are all for women's rights, aren't they?
Where were Muslims during World War II? They were aligned with Adolf Hitler. The Muslim grand mufti himself met with Adolf Hitler, reviewed the troops, and accepted support from the Nazi's in killing Jews.
Finally, Mr. Obama, where were Muslims on Sept. 11th, 2001? If they weren't flying planes into the World Trade Center, the Pentagon, or a field in Pennsylvania killing more than 3,000 citizens on our own soil, they were rejoicing in the Middle East.
No one can dispute the pictures shown from all parts of the Muslim world celebrating on CNN, Fox News, MSNBC and other cable news network’s that day. Strangely, the very "moderate" Muslims who's asses you bent over backwards to kiss in Cairo, Egypt on June 4th were stone cold silent post 9-11. To many Americans, their silence has meant approval for the acts of that day.
And THAT, Mr. Obama, is the "rich heritage" Muslims have here in America.
Oh, I'm sorry, I forgot to mention the Barbary Pirates.
> They were Muslim.
And now we can add November 5, 2009 - the slaughter of American soldiers at Fort Hood by a Muslim major who is a doctor and a psychiatrist who was supposed to be counseling soldiers returning from battle in Iraq and Afghanistan and 2012 when these peaceful religious believers invaded our embassies – American soil, by the way – and killed our ambassador.
That, Mr. Obama is the "Muslim heritage" in America.
The answer is no, you did not. Just ask yourself WHY ?
Barack Obama, during his Cairo speech, said:
"I know, too, that Islam has always been a part of America 's history."
AN AMERICAN CITIZEN'S RESPONSE:
Dear Mr. Obama:

That, Mr. Obama is the "Muslim heritage" in America.
The myth of the 'rock-star professor' |
In 1999, only 23 percent of the students said they would repeat Obama's racism class. He was the third-lowest-ranked lecturer at the law school that year. And in 2003, only a third of the student evaluators recommended his classes.
His classes were small. A spring 1994 class attracted 14 out of a student body of 600; a spring 1996 class drew 13. In 1997, he had the largest class of his tenure with 49 students. But by then, his student rating had fallen to 7.75. Twenty-two of 40 faculty members ranked higher than Obama.
Some former faculty colleagues today describe Obama as disengaged, doing only what was minimally required and almost never participating in faculty activities.

While
I don't consider The Harbinger by Cahn prophetic, I DO think what he
has said by his book is critical to the Church. We have become part of
the modern culture, not a standard God would erect against the flood of
the enemy. One thing he says is true,
last November's election was a tipping point. We are now an apostate
nation. Demonic forces previously held back were released last
November. Same Sex marriage, Freer Abortion, Corruption, Homosexual
Ascendancy and many more insidious demonic forces. The real question
is, now that you live in an apostate nation coming under judgement from
God, how will YOU then live?? How should the church then function.
Will it continue to cocoon itself into further irrelevancy or will it
begin to take a strong stand for righteousness? That begins by pushing
back against leadership that is corrupting our country. Will your or
will you lose those good tithers if you do?
The
cruelties of mankind such as this one were a result not from fascists
with warped ideologies like Hitler. It resulted from the common people
and the soldiers that believed in authority. It was their belief in
authority that caused Hitler to have power.
This is a picture from an Einsatzgruppen soldier’s personal album labelled on the back as "Last Jew of Vinnits'a." It shows a member of Einsatzgruppe D is just about to shoot a Jewish man kneeling before a filled mass grave in Vinnitsa, Ukraine, in 1941. All 28,000 Jews from Vinnitsa and its surrounding areas were massacred at the time.
"The reason it is so important that people understand this fact is that the primary danger posed by the myth of "authority" is to be found not in the minds of the controllers in "government" but in the minds of those being controlled. One nasty individual who loves to dominate others is a trivial threat to humanity unless a lot of other people view such domination as legitimate because it is achieved via "laws" of "government."
The twisted mind of Adolf Hitler, by itself, posed little or no threat to humanity. It was the millions of people who viewed Hitler as "authority," and thus felt obligated to obey his commands and carry out his orders, who actually caused the damage done by the Third Reich. In other words, the problem is not that evil people believe in "authority"' the problem is that basically good people believe in "authority," and as a result, end up advocating and even committing acts of aggression, injustice and oppression, even murder." - Larken Rose

Here's
where nationalize health care gets you. Universal death care. From the
article; "The growing ineffectiveness of many antibiotics against
infection is being compounded by a "discovery void", as few new
compounds are being developed to take their place" When government
does anything it all falls apart.

The most stunning thing I have heard in the last few weeks is this: You will become more and more like the 5 people you spend the most time with. IF birds of a feather stick together, how did that happen?

sugar high
During all the sugar highs in the stock
market.. it's good to remember that on October 9 2007 the stock market
hit the highest mark it had ever hit. 14,164 Within less than two years
on March 6 2009 the market hit a low of 6,443. A loss of over 54%.
More then half off the high. NOW the market is 14,449. A new record
high. It's shaky at these heights. There is nothing except a flood of
money looking for a home holding this
up. There will be a reckoning. How tough? Tough. More than half off.
How long? It might take two years, but when something just can't go
on like this, it can't go on. Trees have tops. Oil prices are about to
take a tumble as well. Enjoy things as they are. They won't always be
like this. It's not gloom and doom. It's being a student of
cycles...long deep cycles.

Payne: Woodward and Chrysler meet Obama's 'Chicago Way' Our THUG in Chief
President Barack Obama (Charles Dharapak)
The Media Church of the Holy Obama quickly excommunicated Watergate icon and journalist Bob Woodward last week when he suggested the Obama administration threatened him after he revealed the anti-sequester White House had originated the sequester idea. But Woodward's accusation rings true because it echoes other accounts of the ex-Illinois senator's "Chicago Way" tactics.
Exhibit A is the 2009 Detroit Auto Bailout and the administration's threats against Chrysler bondholders that refused to knuckle under to Obama's plot to favor his Big Labor cronies.
The administration has treated obstacles to its agenda with ruthless tactics. In April 2009, that agenda was to hand an outsized, 55 percent majority interest of embattled Chrysler to the United Auto Workers in a government-orchestrated bankruptcy. But by law secured creditors are first in line in bankruptcy, and bondholders — representing their working-class pension clients — refused to accept Obama's unfair deal for a measly 29 cents on their investment dollar.
Send in the muscle.
"One of my clients was directly threatened by the White House and in essence compelled to withdraw its opposition to the deal under threat that the full force of the White House press corps would destroy its reputation if it continued to fight," said Tom Lauria, lawyer for Perella Weinberg investment firm, on Frank Beckmann's Detroit radio program. Lauria later said the brass knuckles belonged to White House Auto Task Force leader Steve Rattner. Lauria's account was disturbing, too, in revealing the confidence that the White House has in its press allies to aid Obama's agenda. Sure enough,
