Now we know that Jesus did not approve of genital mutilation by circumcision of the foreskin of a male, according to the Book of Thomas.
(Certainly Zipporah did not approve of it, when she told Moses he was a bloody husband (Ex. 4:25). Worse, later, the ceremony was used to deceive foreigners! Like when Haran and Shechem, I think, were deceived into getting circumcised only to be killed by Jacob’s sons three days later. )
Nor did Jesus hear the voice from heaven, as two of his followers did, when they were in the cave.
Nor did Jesus encourage the formality of washing the hands — but of cleansing the mind of evil thoughts.
Thank you Lord for the truth in Jesus!
As more truth emerges from the will of the people and God Almighty, one can only believe that Americans will once again enjoy the peace and freedom that comes from a cleansing of minds, souls, and the environment — where neighbors help each other, equitable business transactions take place between people (with God’s presence), criminals will be held responsible for breaking the law and receiving correction, and prayer will begin each day in the classrooms.
Prayerfully, this change will take place expediently, with high antennas coming down and false idols being destroyed,
Blessed is the nation whose trust is in the Lord.

I'm retired from 20 years of federal service and 25 years of maintenance work. I've written three devotional books and continue to write devotions for the local newspaper, I play golf, run a cribbage club, and go crabbing a lot.
I'm also a victim of persecution: MK-ultra, Government abuse, and stalking, having witnessed corruption within the Virginia court system when my wife's divorce attorney, Howard Copeland, threatened Judge Whitehurst with a non-reappointment to the bench if he didn't get an order signed evicting me from my house (that had no merit). This lie destroyed any hope for my family reconciliation, and then he avoided court using legislative appearances, which made things worse with delays. I finally won the divorce after the lawyers used 5 judges and 1 commissioner; and then I personally appealed the retirement award to my wife. That got 2 appellate judges to suddenly resign for personal reasons and I never got my decree straight -- until 30 years later when I finally got my retirement the way it was supposed. Multiple attempts were made on my life, with a Virginia State police helicopter hovering over me to the state line when I left in 1989. Incredible what those in higher positions will do to protect their deceit! They should be made to pay back the State and Federal Government for their false accusations. Take it out of their estates!
