[TruthTalk] Merry Christmas!
We aren’t “having Christmas” this year, due to having half of our belongings at one house, and half at the other as we move. We never planned for our new home to be finished right before Christmas! So, no tree or decorations. No gifts. No food in the house. Just boxes and pandemonium in the background as we carry on with more important things, like my husband playing percussion for 8 pre-Christmas services, etc. What little bit of family is here joined us for one of the services the other night and then we, plus a few friends, went out to dinner together afterwards. I was not expecting to wake up early this morning to look outside at a layer of wet snow covering the ground and trees—a perfect Christmas gift! After hauling a couple of carloads of boxes to the new house we will dine at the house of friends who always manage to be enormously hospitable in their tiny little house. They have the biggest of hearts. Then we will go together to see the movie Narnia. Christmas comes, ready or not, and you don’t need a tree or presents. It’s all about Him. Have a blessed one! iz

1.) Christ 2.) Mass I think we all know that "Christ" refers to God's Son Jesus. The word "Mass" comes from Old English mæsse, a modification of (assumed) Vulgar Latin messa from the Late Latin missa, literally meaning "dismissal"; as in at the end of a religious service. The Middle English Christemasse, comes from Old English Cristes mæsse, literally, Christ's mass - shortened to "Christ-mas". Meaning the "dismissal" or passing away of Christ; or more directly, the death of Christ. Those who understand a bit about the Catholic religion realize that the "Mass" always refers to the sacrificial death of Christ. The word "Christmas" comes from the Roman Catholic ritual.

I don't think so,Marlin. What some are saying is "Lets get drunk and make an ass of ourselves at the Christmas party". Some are saying, "Diamonds are forever". Others are saying, "More stuff will make me happy". Some kids will get way too much today. Others will get far too little. Very few will spend much of today celebrating the Gift God gave all mankind.

They have the biggest of hearts. Then we will go together to see the movie Narnia. Christmas comes, ready or not, and you dont need a tree or presents. Its all about Him. Have a blessed one! iz

Re: [TruthTalk] Merry Christmas!
Hi Marlin. Seeing what you have shared, you might like to hear that I preached in our community's Christmas parade this year as I did last year, carrying a cross, the symbol of the death of Jesus the Christ. I had more than 30 people behind me, each one of them carrying crosses too. I walked before them with a Truth Horn and reminded the thousands along the parade route that if it had not been for the cross and the death of Jesus Christ, there would be no Christmas. I urged them not to think of Santa Clause or Jesus as a little cute baby in a manger, but to think about what Jesus was being born to do. He came with a purpose, to die for our sins, your sins and my sins. He was bruised for our iniquities, and the chastisement of our peace was upon him. Believe upon Jesus Christ today. Jesus is the reason for the season. Worship the Lord Jesus Christ today! Merry Christmas! It is a very Merry Christmas when we believe upon Jesus Christ and receive the forgiveness of our sins. Hallelujah! As I preached, the other cross bearers passed out tracts and Bibles. Yes, we should think about the death of Christ at Christmas time, because if it were not for the cross and the need for Jesus to be put to death, nobody would be celebrating Christmas today. Peace be with you.David Miller. - Original Message - From: Marlin halverson To: TruthTalk@mail.innglory.org Sent: Sunday, December 25, 2005 10:33 AM Subject: Re: [TruthTalk] Merry Christmas! 1.) Christ 2.) Mass I think we all know that "Christ" refers to God's Son Jesus. The word "Mass" comes from Old English mæsse, a modification of (assumed) Vulgar Latin messa from the Late Latin missa, literally meaning "dismissal"; as in at the end of a religious service. The Middle English Christemasse, comes from Old English Cristes mæsse, literally, Christ's mass - shortened to "Christ-mas". Meaning the "dismissal" or passing away of Christ; or more directly, the death of Christ. Those who understand a bit about the Catholic religion realize that the "Mass" always refers to the sacrificial death of Christ. The word "Christmas" comes from the Roman Catholic ritual. Folks walk around this time of year saying "Merry Christmas!" to each other. I wonder if it occurs to anyone they are saying "Merry Death of Christ." www.truthontheweb.org/NwsClpz/122405.htm- Maranatha

Miracles are common among many of the Christian communities that operate in faith, but this unfortunately is a minority among all the Christians of the world. Most of the Mormons I have known and spoken to do not have direct experience with miracles. Perhaps you can share some of your testimony with us concerning how God has worked miraculously in your Mormon community. I watched a movie not too long ago about a Mormon missonary named John Groberg whose assignment was Tonga. It was called, "The Other Side of Heaven." Have you seen it? What do you think of it? It seemed a bit skimpy on the kind of miracles that I hear from most Christian missionaries. Peace be with you.

I killed a buck at sixty yards this afternoon and thought I had done something, then I read this. http://www.riflebarrels.com/articles/50calibre/50sniping.htm Sniping with the .50 BMG in Afghanistan New long-distance record set! (The following is from the Canadian newspaper National Post. The shooters were using .50 BMG rifles that had Lilja barrels on them outfitted with Nightforce 5.5-22x NXS scopes.) OTTAWA BLOCKS U.S. EFFORT TO HONOUR OUR SNIPERS: Canadian snipers pose with their 50-calibre rifle at base camp in Kandahar. Five of the men, whose names the military withheld for security reasons, were nominated for Bronze Stars by the U.S. for their prowess in fighting near Gardez. The sixth joined the unit later in the war. Wait due to 'Canadian protocol' A kill from 2,430 metres By Michael Smith and Chris Wattie National Post The United States wants to give two teams of Canadian snipers the Bronze Star, a decoration for bravery, for their work in rooting out Taliban and al-Qaeda holdouts in eastern Afghanistan, but Canadian defence officials put the medals on hold, the National Post has learned. The five snipers spent 19 days fighting alongside the scout platoon of the United States Army's 187th "Rakkasan" brigade last month, clearing out diehard fighters from the mountains near Gardez in eastern Afghanistan. The Americans were so impressed by the Canadian snipers that they recommended them for medals after the battle. Sources told the Post that U.S. General Warren Edwards had already signed the recommendation for five Bronze Stars for the sniper teams, drawn from 3rd Battalion, Princess Patricia's Canadian Light Infantry, last month. Gen. Edwards, deputy commanding general of coalition land forces in Afghanistan, had recommended three Canadians for a Bronze Star and two for a Bronze Star with distinction. The night before the troops were to be awarded the medals, about three weeks ago, Canadian military officials in Ottawa put the decorations on hold, according to a U.S. Army source in Afghanistan. The Canadian military told their U.S. counterparts to wait before awarding the medals for reasons of "Canadian protocol." Spokesmen for the Department of National Defence would not comment on the award last night, but a source within the department said the medals are on hold while the military decides whether or not to award the men a similar Canadian decoration. However, Dr. David Bercuson, director of the Centre of Military and Strategic Studies at the University of Calgary, said the real reason for the delay was likely official squeamishness. "Canadians don't kill -- they don't even use the word kill; that's the problem," he said. "I think the military is not sure that the government is prepared to accept the fact, let alone celebrate the fact ... that Canadian soldiers do sometimes end up killing people." Many of the U.S. scouts who worked directly with the Canadian snipers were incensed that the Canadians did not get the Bronze Star, the medal for bravery the U.S. military usually gives foreign soldiers serving alongside its troops. The snipers themselves, all of whom spoke on condition their names not be printed, have said they would prefer to receive a medal from their peers in the field rather than from National Defence Headquarters in Ottawa. Dr. Bercuson said there should be no objection to Canadians receiving a U.S. decoration: As recently as the Gulf War, two Canadian CF-18 pilots were given the Bronze Star. He said the medals would be a badly needed boost to the morale of the almost 900 Canadian soldiers on the ground in Afghanistan, especially after four of their comrades were killed and eight others wounded in last week's friendly fire incident. "Absolutely they should get it," Dr. Bercuson said. "It would be good for the morale of the guys and good for the morale of the whole unit, and they need a morale boost right now." Canadian snipers were reportedly outstanding in the fighting around the mountainous al-Qaeda bastion east of Gardez, code-named Operation Anaconda. The battle pitted the two Canadian sniper teams against an enemy that showered the assaulting coalition troops with mortars and machine-gun fire as soon as they jumped from their helicopters. One member of the team, a corporal from Newfoundland, said on his first night in combat he and his partner got an al-Qaeda machine gun in their sights as it was hailing bullets down on U.S. troops below. Crawling up into a good position, they set up their .50-calibre rifle -- the McMillan Tac-50, a weapon the corporal compares to having superhuman power in your hands. "Firing it feels like someone slashing you on the back of your hockey helmet with a hockey stick." (These are the rifles fitted with Lilja .50 caliber barrels and Nigh
[Fwd: Re: [TruthTalk] atta boy Canadians]
Nope. I am not man enough to stand up under the recoil of a fifty caliber machine gun cartridge. I cringe every time I have to sight in one of the African rifles I make for people going on safari for elephant and cape buffalo. Years ago, I fitted a 45/70 barrel to a single shot shotgun frame. It is an old cartridge, being the same one that Custer's troops used. Not a long range cartridge, too slow and too heavy, but I have killed a pile of deer with it over the years, along with several hogs and bobcats. You can see a poor picture of it on my web site, www.cliftoncustomrifles.com Right now, we have the place up for sale. If we get our price, we intend to move to Montana or Wyoming and spend our last days shooting prairie dogs and coyotes. If it doesn't sell, I will still retire in March. I have three varmint guns I want to build for myself when I close the shop. If we stay here, I will spend most of my time reloading and developing more accurate loads for our rifles, and maybe shoot a few crows off the watermelons in early summer. That is about the only long range shooting you can get around here and the farmers welcome you because they have a hard time selling melons with holes pecked through them. I have customers who say they shoot six hundred rounds a day at a good prairie dog town and never seem to put a dent in them. The prairie dogs carry a flea that causes black plague, so they do not want their numbers to get out of hand. 350 yards, by the way, is still a long shot in my book.
