My Testimony

I met with Deb Whited last weekend to deliver a French Angora kit and she asked me a question I have not been asked in a long time. She wanted to know my testimony and since tomorrow is Easter I thought I would share it with you all.

Most of you just know the quite guy at the rabbit shows that keeps to himself and is easy to get a long with for the most part. However that has not always been the case in fact I was almost the total opposite before the good Lord started working on my heart. I was a pretty good kid all the way through school but then when I got out of school is when all the problems started. I had struggled with my sexuality since a young age and had just "came out" when I started hanging out with the wrong crowd. It did not take long before I started trying pot, pills and drinking. Once that started I found my drug of choice, meth. I would do anything to get it including stealing from friends and family and had to have it everyday. I had developed a very strong addiction to it. I was always trying to fill this need I had and soon drugs was not enough so I started sleeping around to try and fill that need. I won't go into detail about the things I did because somethings are better left unsaid but I was going down a dark twisty path very fast.

There was a little girl in Crothersville IN that was murdered, at first a guy came forward and said she walked up on some stuff going on with meth and thats why she was murdered. We would late find out that was not true however that was the first story. I remember going to a friends house a few days later with her mom, mom's bf, her bf, her and I, we all stayed up all night long doing our thing and playing cards. This little girl was on my mind throughout the hole night. The nest day I was invited to church with a friend from High School so me and my buzz were off to church that night. On my way home I knew what I was doing was wrong and a little girl just lost her life over it and that was pointless there was no reason for it. I said ONE prayer that night on my way home and asked God to help me get off the drugs. Thats all it took that one prayer and I no longer had to have them it was amazing. I was not saved at this time and this was not the end of my story. I still had drinking problem and was hanging out with the wrong crowd. Living life as a homosexual going to the bars and doing other things I should not have done.

After moving out of my parents and into a friends house the drinking and sleeping around got much much worse. Little did I know God still had plans for me. I had been working where I do now for a couple years and developed quite a rep for things and being loud and mouthy always in trouble with management I honestly dont know how I have my job still. A young man came to work on my line right out of homeschooling and I had some very unhealthy interests toward him right way. Being I was not a shy guy at work it did not take me long to start making my moves. Boy did God have a news flash for me there! This guy and I stated talking exchanged numbers and was talking outside of work as well. One night after work he brought up God and being saved, we talked about that for 2 nights about how Jesus died on the cross so I could someday see Heaven and have a better life IF i chose to. There were lots of questions and lots of tears, how God would ever want a guy like me that has done some unspeakable things I could not understand. Once I made up my mind sitting Indian style on my bed it was all over. With ONE prayer my life would be changed forever. Overnight God had made a huge difference in me. I went from the guy that was cursing every other word to not using those words at all. From being an out and proud homosexual to admitting it was a sin and we should turn away from it the same as we do all other sins. It was a total 180 and boy am I better person today for just asking God to come into my heart and show me how to live.

You see no matter what you are doing have done or who you are God sent his Son to die for you. No matter how far down you have fallen He can pull you back up and wash you in the Blood. This is the one true thing in life you will get for free all you have to do is say a simple prayer, admit your a sinner the same as I and ask Jesus to be your savior and live in your heart. You see Easter is the day Jesus rose from the grave to give us all a way to get to heaven a way to live the good life. Easter is the day Jesus defeated Satan. Easter is the day Jesus paved us a path to Heaven. I hope I meet all of you there one day walking in the streets of gold and living the good life with no more suffering or hurting of any kind. If this post has inspired you and you have more questions feel free to contact me at psalms121@rocketmail.com or go to your local church and talk to the Paster. I pray this post helps one of you get saved and meet Jesus in Heaven on that sweet day. Until then have a happy Easter and remember the reason we celebrate this day. God Bless!

Good Friday?

Here is another post from one of my yahoo groups. I have never heard this before and found it very interesting so I thought I would share. God Bless



"For as Jonas was three days and three nights in the whale's belly; so shall the Son of man be three days and three nights in the heart of the earth." - Matthew 12:40

Now you might be better at mathematics than I (this is not saying much), but even you can not put three days and nights (even it you switch the order to the more Jewish "nights and days") between a Good Friday crucifixion and an Easter Sunday resurrection.

The Catholic tradition of Jesus dying on a Friday can be largely blamed on a misunderstanding of the word "sabbath". "Six days shall work be done: but the seventh day is the sabbath of rest, an holy convocation; ye shall do no work therein: it is the sabbath of the LORD in all your dwellings." - Leviticus 23:3

If you looked at this passage in Mark chapter fifteen, assuming that the "sabbath" meant "Saturday", a burial on Friday would be the only logical conclusion: "And now when the even was come, because it was the preparation, that is, the day before the sabbath, Joseph of Arimathaea, an honourable counsellor, which also waited for the kingdom of God, came, and went in boldly unto Pilate, and craved the body of Jesus." - Mark 15:42-43

But what if your idea of the sabbath always meaning the seventh day, was incorrect? What if there was more than one type of sabbath in the Bible? What if you thought of "sabbath" as meaning a "holy day when no work was allowed"? There are other sabbaths, relating to the Hebrew Feasts, described in Leviticus 23:4-44. While the Passover is not a sabbath day when no work is allowed to be done ("an holy convocation: ye shall do no servile work therein"), there are days besides Saturday alone that are sabbath days.

So what are these other sabbaths? They deal with other Jewish holidays (holy days): "And on the fifteenth day of the same month is the feast of unleavened bread ...In the first day ye shall have an holy convocation: ye shall do no servile work therein. ... in the seventh day is an holy convocation: ye shall do no servile work therein." - Lev. 23: 6-8 "Speak unto the children of Israel, saying, The fifteenth day of this seventh month shall be the feast of tabernacles. ..the first day shall be an holy convocation: ye shall do no servile work therein. Seven days ye shall offer an offering made by fire unto the LORD: on the eighth day shall be an holy convocation unto you; and ye shall offer an offering made by fire unto the LORD: it is a solemn assembly; and ye shall do no servile work therein." - Lev. 23: 34-36

If Jesus was buried, as He stated, for three days and nights, when did He die? A case can be made for a Wednesday or a Thursday crucifixion, but Friday is simply impossible, nor is it necessary once the sabbaths are fully understood.

A timeline could be made for Jesus' death on Thursday (knowing that Jesus didn't even die until 3:00pm), of Thursday night, Friday, Friday night, Saturday, Saturday night, Sunday being interrupted by the scriptures "very early in the morning". A Wednesday schedule would be Wednesday night in the tomb, Thursday, Thursday night, Friday, Friday night, Saturday (three full nights and days), and then Jesus arose sometime between 6pm Saturday and 6am Sunday.

If the crucifixion was on the Passover, it was automatically the day before a sabbath, no matter what day it was on, because the high sabbath day of the Feast of Unleavened Bread was the next day. It is worth noting that if Jesus finished His word of redemption on the Passover, it was a feast day, but not a sabbath day. Likewise, another feast day, the Feast of First Fruits, (not a sabbath day), would be the day on which Jesus rose from the grave.

A unique argument for a Thursday crucifixion comes from observing Mary Magdalene. Why did she wait until Sunday to go to the tomb to annoint Jesus' body? If Thursday was the day of the crucifixion, then Friday would have been the high sabbath, and Saturday would have been the weekly sabbath (making it impossible for her to go on Friday or Saturday), leaving Sunday as the first "working" day she could have made the trip.

"And when the sabbath was past, Mary Magdalene, and Mary the mother of James, and Salome, had bought sweet spices, that they might come and anoint him. And very early in the morning the first day of the week, they came unto the sepulchre at the rising of the sun. And they said among themselves, Who shall roll us away the stone from the door of the sepulchre? And when they looked, they saw that the stone was rolled away..." - Mark 16:1-4a

Baptists do not celebrate his death every week. Instead we focus on His victory over death on Sunday, the Lord's Day, when He arose from the dead. Sunday is not the "Christian Sabbath", and the weekly sabbath was not mysteriously moved to Sunday from Saturday. Sunday is the Lord's Day, and we hold services in His name because He lives!

Turkeys and Drusilla

My hen turkey is starting to lay eggs I caught her on the nest today.

Here is a pic of the proud papa Tommy strutting his stuff

I am kinda starting to think both of my geese are females. They started a nest in one place but never laid any eggs, then the one I think is a female started setting in anther place. Annie my BC got into the nest and destroyed all the eggs so then the other goose went back to the original nest and started setting. I checked today and there are 4 eggs in the nest I just ain't sure who layed them. So far they have both set on a different nest. I have not had geese set before so I am not sure their mating habits. If anyone knows anything about raising geese I would love some advice.

This is Dusty's Drusilla a fawn 40% German cross. This little girl was clipped today and gave me 7oz of spinning wool, all prime not counting anything else as I only keep my prime wool. This doe has really nice color for a cross and has a TON of crimp in her wool. I am very pleased with how she is turning out so I will be breeding her soon to SWF Walley an 83% black buck that carries "e". I have thought really hard about giving up on my fawn project and only working on colors that are closer to being excepted in Giants. The way this girl looks and a couple of my Agoutis that carry "e" I dont think I can do that. It may mean less room for REWs in the barn but it may be worth it in the end. Hope you enjoyed the pics God Bless!

Condemning Conscience

This was posted on one of the yahoo groups I am a member of and I would like to share it with all of you! God Bless


Overcoming a Condemning Conscience

Romans 8:1
"There is therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ
Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit."

One of the things I have found that hinders many Christians from doing
what they should for God is a guilty conscience. If the truth were
known, everybody has done something that they regret. The reason why I
know this is because everybody is a sinner. Because everybody is a
sinner, there is not a person alive who hasn't done some sin that they
wish they could undo. Therefore, everybody is capable of having a
guilty or condemning conscience.

Before I show you how to overcome the condemning conscience, let me show
you why Christians have guilty consciences. Revelation 12:10 says, "And
I heard a loud voice saying in heaven, Now is come salvation, and
strength, and the kingdom of our God, and the power of his Christ: for
the accuser of our brethren is cast down, which accused them before our
God day and night." Notice this verse says that Satan is the accuser of
the brethren. Satan's accusatory actions are not only performed in
front of God, but he will also take our past and use it to attack us
personally. Satan's accusatory attack can cause us to carry a
condemning conscience.

According to the verse above there is a way that you can overcome a
condemning conscience. There are three steps that God says must be
taken in order to overcome a condemning conscience. First, a person
must get saved. When a person gets saved all of their sins are placed
under the blood of Jesus Christ. Christian, you must realize that even
though Satan accuses you to condemn your conscience, you can respond
back to him by saying that all of your sins are placed under the blood
of Jesus Christ.

Secondly, you overcome a condemning conscience by not walking after the
flesh. In other words, the best way to overcome a condemning conscience
is not to live the life the flesh would like you to live. This is why
preachers constantly preach that you should stop trying to live like the
world. Christian, when you continue to yield to the flesh, you are
feeding the conscience with things to condemn you. You will never
overcome a condemning conscience while living a fleshly life.

Last of all, the way to overcome a condemning conscience is to do the
things the Spirit of God would want you to do. Yes, serving God and
doing what God commands you to do will help you overcome your condemning
conscience. When you do right and stop doing wrong, you will have a
clear conscience. There is nothing more refreshing than knowing that
you did right. The greatest prescription for overcoming your condemning
conscience is to live according to the Scriptures.

Are you having problems with your conscience condemning you? Then take
the prescription from the verse above and follow it. You will find by
following the prescription from this verse that your conscience can be
guilt free. It will be guilt free because God promises that He is
greater than anything else in life. When we do what God commands us to
do in order to overcome the condemning conscience, then He will drive
away Satan and those thoughts that try to condemn us.

Start living right today and you will see the things that used to
condemn your conscience will be driven away. A happy life is the result
of a guilt-free conscience.

Evangelist Allen Domelle
