(C)2007 It may interest you to know the number eighteen in "biblical numerics",...not DeVinci Code,...means "bondage". In this one nation on earth men and women are born free,...because Someone gave it to us. Yes,...gave us the victory in our battles, over and over again, many times throughout our history,...and many times against overwelming odds. On the small scale, soldier to soldier, and on the large scale, campaign after campaign. He also forgave us of our sins as individuals, communities and a nation, washing them away in His blood. Leading individuals out of bondage to old dead ways of thinking, making them brothers and sisters in a new covenant with Him. But also families, communities, neighborhoods, cities, counties, states and through a strong "right" arm, with and without the use of our troops, He set free other nations out of bondage to corrupt systems of government. Replacing a carbon copy of our own ten commandment based government so their citizens could live free too. Great men and women of all races have shed precious blood to get, keep and give freedom to their childrens children and for the childrens children of other nations around the world. "In the Lord we trust" is our countries moto,...and He is our Father. In the bible, John 14, Philip asked the Lord show us the Father when He was standing right in front of him. God breathed each of us into these flesh bodies to test us whether we would love Him, and live His way, or not. And He came in a flesh body too as Emanuel to show us how to do it and be a living sacrifice for all of us,...His children,....once and for all time. A Door back into the family of God. But,...some choose not to live His way and instead of bringing and living in peace, put people,...their neighbors in bondage to their ways. Like blasting offensive music into the ears of neighborhoods, people walking and driving their cars!!! Or, a system of government which terrorizes it's own people into subjection or they or their families will be murdered!!! It is love to call the police over loud offensive music just as it is the "right thing to do to use our troops to set people free from terrorist governments. Jesus spoke boldly just as His messengers the prophets spoke boldly too against those who put people in bondage and upon believing the words of the Living Word,...one was, and is to this day, set free!!! (Twelve means "God's government". Which when it gets here to the Earth at the seventh trump, will be so brighter than day compared to the blackest of night we have now with man in control!)
