Eating meat is not murder, it's much worse than that, according to the celebrated miserablist and former Smiths singer Morrissey.

"I see no difference between eating animals and paedophilia," he said. "They are both rape, violence, murder. If I'm introduced to anyone who eats beings, I walk away."

While devout Morrissey fans may regard his every word as divine writ – including his recent monumental autobiography which he insisted on being published in the Penguin Classics series – he pushed them to the limit in his latest utterances.

"Imagine, for example, if you were in a nightclub and someone said to you: 'Hello, I enjoy bloodshed, throat-slitting and the destruction of life,' well, I doubt if you'd want to exchange phone numbers," he said.

The insights were shared in a Q&A session on his fan website, True to You. Asked about his proudest achievement, he said it was persuading many people to stop eating meat. "If you believe in the abattoir then you would support Auschwitz. There's no difference."

But he wasn't done: "If Jamie 'Orrible is so certain that flesh-food is tasty then why doesn't he stick one of his children in a microwave?" he asked. And of Cilla Black preparing a leg of lamb recently on television: "Since a lamb is a baby, I wondered what kind of mind Cilla Black could possibly have that would convince her that eating a baby is OK?"

Wednesday's New Day shut out social conservatives from a panel discussion on Senator Marco Rubio's Tuesday remark that "if you do not support same-sex marriage, you're labeled a homophobe and a hater," and that "the next step is to argue that the teachings of mainstream Christianity – the Catechism of the Catholic Church – is hate speech." Instead, the CNN morning show brought on a Republican and Democrat – Ana Navarro and Donna Brazile – who both blasted Rubio for his warning.

Navarro, who supports same-sex "marriage," had a blunt response to the Republican presidential candidate's comments: "Frankly, they made me cringe. I am very uncomfortable and disappointed with him....I just don't think this kind of rhetoric – stoking the flames – is helpful." Brazile replied to Senator Rubio by underling how it was "discouraging to hear that, somehow or another...being supportive of marriage equality is, somehow or another, an attack on religious freedom or faith." [video below]

Anchor Chris Cuomo previewed the Navarro/Brazile segment by noting the "big issue percolating for the 2016 race...is religion under attack? Are people of faith under attack? Senator Marco Rubio has just taken this to a whole new level. We'll tell you what he said, and what it means to his chances." An on-screen graphic hinted at what CNN thought of what Rubio's remarks are doing for his "chances" by wondering, "Bump In The Road For Rubio?"

Co-anchor Alisyn Camerota played the clip of the Florida senator's "hate speech" comments, and asked Navarro, "What did you think of his comments?" The socially liberal Republican strategist replied with her "made me cringe" reaction, and attacked the fringes of "both sides" of the marriage debate.
[...]
Navarro continued with a compliment for Pope Francis's perceived approach for handling social issues. Cuomo responded with his own kudos for the pontiff:
[...]
The liberal anchor, who is known for acting like an activist on LGBT issues, then asserted that social conservatives, including Rubio, were spinning the push for same-sex "marriage" as a campaign against Christianity. Brazile answered by echoing much of what Navarro said earlier.
[...]
To her credit, Camerota followed up by asking a question that actually presented social conservatives' concern for religious freedom. However, Navarro returned to her targeting of the polarization on both sides of the issue. She continued by trumpeting Ireland's passage of same-sex "marriage" by popular vote
[...]
It should be pointed out that as much as the anchors and guests touted Pope Francis's "approach," the most senior official at the Vatican after the Pope himself, Secretary of State Cardinal Pietro Parolin, condemned the Irish vote in favor of same-sex "marriage" as a "disaster for humanity." According to a Wednesday report in the Irish Times, the Vatican's spokesman later "not only confirmed that Cardinal Parolin had used these words but he also indicated that the Vatican was sticking by them, word for word."

Near the end of the segment, Cuomo repeated his contention that social conservatives were "spinning" the issue. Brazile replied by expressing her hope that the issue would just be settled to her side's favor – blanket support for the LGBT agenda across society.

Quote# 109179

Paul J. Weber of the Associated Press made his liberal slant clear in a Wednesday article detailing how a pro-traditional marriage bill failed to pass in the Texas state legislature. Weber played up the supposedly "divisive efforts by Texas Republicans to defy the U.S. Supreme Court if same-sex marriage is legalized." He clearly labeled the proponents of the bill as conservatives, but failed to identify the socially liberal agenda of opponents.

The correspondent led his item, "Divisive anti-gay marriage bill falls in Texas Legislature," with his "divisive efforts" and "defy the Supreme Court" phrases, and noted how the effort to pass the bill on Wednesday "ended...with conservative finger-pointing and opponents feeling relieved." He continued by noting that the legislative session "will end next week without a measure that gay rights activists considered one of the harshest in any U.S. statehouse: restrictions that would prohibit government officials from giving marriage licenses to same-sex couples."

Weber soon added that "Republicans made no secret about seeing the bill as a path to new legal challenges if the Supreme Court legalizes gay marriage later this summer." He also pointed out how Republican Lt. Governor Dan Patrick, who supported the proposed legislation, is a "tea party leader who controls the Senate."

AD FEEDBACK

The AP journalist later underlined that the Texas House of Representatives is "more moderate than the Senate." He also included a quote from State Rep. Garnet Coleman, a Democrat, who blasted the bill: "It is offensive to my constituents, it's offensive to me, and it's offensive to our constitution."

However, Weber failed to point out that Rep. Coleman is a longtime supporter of the left-wing LGBT agenda in the Texas state legislature. A December 2014 article in the Houston Chronicle noted that the Democrat has been trying to repeal the Lone Star State's definition of marriage as being between one man and one woman since 1995.

Quote# 109176

[Bolding in original]

Throughout history the tattoo bears the mark of paganism, demonism, Baal worship, shamanism, mysticism, heathenism, cannibalism and just about every other pagan belief known. The tattoo has NEVER been associated with Bible Believing Christians. And whenever and wherever, in history Christianity appears – tattoos disappear. The only exception -- 20th century, lukewarm, carnal, disobedient, Laodicean Christians.

The birth of the tattoo has always born the fruits of pagan religion and mysticism. Without exception, research after research, study after study, book after book, the roots of the tattoo never wavers. The following documentation is just a small (very small) drop of the ocean of research documenting the pagan and demonic source of the tattoo.

Please remember. . . The following documentation is from pro-tattoo books simply documenting the obvious spiritual and religious link to the tattoo. These are not Christian writers trying to paint a negative portrait of the tattoo. No matter how much the carnal, rebellious, Christian desires to justify their perverse reasoning for "marking" themselves with the forbidden demonic tattoo, the facts are loud and clear, backed by tons of research and documentation by the leading pro-tattoo authorities on the planet – the foundation, origin, meaning and purposes of the tattoo is pagan demonism, shamanism, Baal worship, and occult mysticism.

A tattooist in many cultures is also a shaman, magick-man, priest or priestess. According to the dictionary a shaman is a "intermediary between the natural and supernatural worlds, using magic to cure illness, foretell the future, control spiritual forces, etc." (www.infoplease.com/ipd/A0648969.html)

[...]

The tattooist, shaman or the occult priest many times uses the tattoo as a point of contact, or inlets into the spiritual world. The tattoo is much more than just a body decoration. It’s more than just a layer of ink cut into the skin. In fact, the tattoo in every culture, in every country, up until the 20th century, was a vehicle for pagan spiritual and religious invocations. Even today, in many countries (including the United States), the tattoo is believed to be a bridge into the supernatural world.

[...]

Among today’s latest tattoo craze is "tribal tattoos", which are pure paganism. Tribal tattoos are designs that bear serious symbolic mystical and occult meanings. Tribal tattoos, especially, are possible channels into spiritual and demonic possession.

[...]

In the pages of history, whenever and wherever "tattooing" pagan tribes were converted to Christianity, without exception, one of their first pagan practices to "pass away" [ 2 Corinthians 5:17] – was the tattoo. Why? Because, unlike today’s disobedient carnal "tattooed" Christians (or so-called?), the converted pagan KNEW the tattoo was against the Word of God. The Holy Spirit quickly "told" the converted pagan – no tattoo.

Quote# 109173

ID really isn't about finding God. This in itself is a common mis-characterization For the most part ID'rs simply put forth there is some kind of "direction", "intelligence", "self-organization" taking place in biology - which so-far "undirected" "random" "non-intelligent" organization has not explained. This especially was demonstrated regarding the recent human genome project which had materialists like yourself and Michael Shermer assuring the world it would cement Darwinian biology forevermore. In fact, the genome project confirmed what ID'rs had predicted, not what the Darwinists had predicted.

What is a fine trick is playing the definition games you like to play here. For starters, science is about putting forth hypothesis that most readily explains the scientific data collected and analyzed. And if there is anything we know most intimately as human beings, it is our consciousness and our intelligence. In fact our science depends upon our intelligence. And what ID'rs are observing naturally in biological structures is the signature of intelligence i.e. self-organization, irreducible complexity, non-random direction. This is the scientific data your Skeptical prejudices that you share with Dawkins and Shermer deny. This is the scientific data that would have led you to predict different results from the human genome project. But you continue to ignore that data. You continue to deny it. Even though it is readily accessible for anyone willing to look at it.

What we also discovered in quantum physics 80 years ago, is there is a non-material aspect to the reality we experience. In fact, on a very fundamental level ie. the very fabric of reality is made up of particles that are not real until we actually observe those particles. We have also discovered in psychology and in parapsychology non-local aspects of human consciousness. Again, this is scientific data that your Skeptical prejudices simply ignore or insist cannot exist.

Also, please understand that the Biblical Godhead is 100% totally masculine. There is NO feminine aspect of the Godhead as feminist theology, New Agers, witches, occultists and spiritists teach. Satan has been relentlessly attacking the Bible in these Last Days, producing the NIV 2011 which removes the pronoun “he” concerning the Holy Spirit in John 14:26. Satan's new transgendered Bible caters to homosexuals and feminists.

Many deadly accidents involved alcohol impaired drivers which do not exceed the .08 BAC. Demons love beer drinkers!

What Michael Jackson did to himself is nothing less than demonic. Michael Jackson was and is idolized by his fans as a singing god. Not surprisingly, Jackson's music is highly favored amongst gay, lesbian, transgendered and bisexuals worldwide. Jackson's life and career went from being that of a popular young black entertainer to a nightmarish freak show. Lisa Marie Presley stated on MySpace after Jackson's death that during their marriage Michael saw “awful vampires and leeches” around her. I am not trying to be unkind in any way, truly, but Satan wants to destroy all of us. Jesus even told Peter, one of His Apostles, that "Satan hath desired to have you . . . that he may sift you as wheat" (Luke 22:31). Saved or unsaved, Satan wants to have you and destroy your life!

A common denominator between the occult, witchcraft (whether Celtic or Wiccan) and Satanism are sexual sins and nudity. When Peter was fishing naked and then saw Jesus, he immediately grabbed his fisherman's coat and jumped into the sea (John 21:7). Jesus is the cure for nudity. Luke 8:35, “Then they went out to see what was done; and came to Jesus, and found the man, out of whom the devils were departed, sitting at the feet of Jesus, clothed, and in his right mind: and they were afraid.” Amen! Even those possessed of demons come into their right mind when they trustingly sit at the feet of Jesus their Savior. No demonic power on earth can prevent the salvation of a soul or the mending of a broken man when childlike faith is present in Jesus Christ.

Quote# 109169

I have a simple seven-point plan that will absolutely reverse the trend and revive the Church of England:
Publicly repent accommodation with the world.
Announce the Counter-Accommodation, a house-cleaning movement that throws out every reform and innovation since 1950 and openly rejects the false idea that tolerance and inclusion are Christian virtues or that unrepentant sinners are welcome as members of the Church body.
Excommunicate every bishop and former bishop who voted for the ordination of women.
Excommunicate every bishop and former bishop who voted for the ordination of homosexuals or officiated over a same-sex ceremony.
Defrock every female and homosexual bishop or priest.
Suspend every bishop or priest who publicly endorses social justice, tolerance, inclusivity, or ecumenicism.
Preach the Word of God precisely as it is communicated through the King James Bible.
If the Church of England will not do this, it has no reason to exist and fully merits its extinction. Observe that the long term results have been exactly what the conservatives who opposed these reforms have been predicting all along. When a Christian church rejects the Word of God and hares after worldly approval, it is not long for this world.

And the UK's atheists probably won't be too pleased with the Church of England's demise. I tend to doubt they will find their new Muslim neighbors quite as easy to push around as lukewarm Anglicans.

Quote# 109165

Trust and dependency are two essential factors in developing an intimate bond with God. As a Christian, you need to pursue these concepts, not try to avoid them. Whenever you find yourself having to decide about insurance, check with the Holy Spirit before you act. Listen for His leading in your soul. Most of the time, He’s going to steer you away from trying to use money to protect yourself. God wants your trust to be in Him—not in money, certificates, and human logic. But because God is wild, we must always leave room for Him to guide us in any direction. Perhaps He knows He is planning to flatten your house with a tornado next year and He wants you to be prepared so He’ll tap you to get insurance. Or perhaps He’s planning to flatten your house and He doesn’t want you to be prepared, so He’ll lead you not to bother with insurance. Whenever you feel God prompting you to do or not do something, you should obey His convictions.

Now to encourage us to respect His moral code, God has fixed it so that we end up suffering consequences when we go beyond the limits He has set for us. God says that our legal spouse is the only one we should be having sex with. He then fixes it so that if we sleep around, we end up suffering all kinds of negative consequences. Not only has God invented a whole crop of nasty diseases which can only be spread through intercourse, but He’s also come up with psychological and emotional consequences for sleeping around. Why do we get that “used rag” feeling as we build up a history of one night stands? Why does sex become less and less pleasurable the more partners we have? These are all ways that God motivates us to get back in alignment with Him. We don’t get to just do whatever we want down here. God tells us what we ought to be doing, and if we blow Him off, He makes us sorry.

In reality multiculturalists are monocultarilsts as these supposed 'liberals' tend to be against genuine diversity, believing that mankind is essentially 'one' and that culture and indeed race are 'social constructs' that people can merely adopt in a pick and mix fashion. What these illiberals really seek is the elimination of the Aryan race as it sees this race as responsible for all the ills of the world and the suppression of 'minorities' and women (read feminists and lesbians). Interestingly (and alarmingly) these so-called 'minorities' are now forming the majority in our urban towns and cities. By the way these illiberals prefer the term humankind as opposed to mankind, believing this term to be 'sexist', although man is a species and women are a part of it. It is also convenient for them that there are indeed two sexes not one, making a mockery of the whole concept of homosexual 'marriage' for these people are unlikely to reproduce although this does
not stop councils from kidnapping children from their natural parents in order to hand them over to such couples. As an aside Family Courts are shrouded in secrecy as the state goes about its often diabolical business.

No doubt the outlawing of incitement of hatred on the grounds of sexual orientation was a necessary prelude to the introduction of homosexual marriage. This did not originate with Cameron and the Coalition government but with New Labour when they introduced the Civil Partnership Act of 2004. Civil partnership was a form of homosexual marriage in all but name and it was supported
by the Conservatives and Liberal Democrats, again proving that you get the same legislation regardless of how you vote. The 'hate speech' legislation made it very difficult for people to oppose homosexual marriage without risking intimidation by the Police who have unfortunately evolved into George Orwell's Thinkpol (Thought Police), although I am sure that as individuals many Police Officers are honourable and just as sickened by the depravity of modern society and our governments as we are, so this should not be construed as an attack against them.

Jehovah’s Witnesses Governing Body member Tony Morris is the host of the January video on the new JW online television network and what he says is a terrifying tirade against higher education.

You can see the full episode here since it’s not embeddable, but in short, they show us that what JWs fear the most is being challenged on their beliefs — and places where your beliefs are scrutinized are to be avoided at all costs.

Here are some of the highlights:

At the 4:30 mark:

… all too often, our young people have met with spiritual disaster, especially after leaving home and living on a university campus. So parents and children, you need to have a goal and you need to have a plan. If you’re missing either one, Satan will provide it for you. Young people, ask yourself: Why am I considering additional education? Is it because I’m pursuing a specific skill or trade to support my service to Jehovah? Or have I been pressured by the system into believing that higher education will somehow make me a more respected person or lead me to a better life?

6:10:

If we are in continued association with those who do not believe the same, it can erode our thinking and convictions… It is one thing to work on a job with others, and quite another matter to immerse oneself in an institution of “learning.”

(He actually did hand quotes for that last word.)

9:44:

I have long said: the better the university, the greater the danger. The most intelligent and eloquent professors will be trying to reshape the thinking of your child, and their influence can be tremendous. One mom, I recall, asked me to try and help her son who was attending a prestigious-name university in Rhode Island. After visiting him, I later had to inform her that her son now believed in evolution. She refused to believe it until he finally told her himself. How sad.

Can demons put out sweet smells as a distraction perhaps, or deceiving as something or someone else? Just wondering if any one has experienced this at any time

]Yes in my heart i believe there are deep cavernous underground cities deep within the sea.
I don't know much about them. Hardly anything at all really. But i have heard a testimony of a man who has come out deep saten worship in a African nation that has have testified of this,
There is are two sites[ I think called ' Insights of God"OR " Divine Revelations (Face to face encounters with Jesus Christ)" that u can go to that tells of a man w whose name i think is Immanuel. He was deep in satanic witchcraft and came out of it and says YES there is a city deep inside the sea that can be accessed by humans through the supernatural. He said this is part of where Sat-ens kingdom is.
You should read his story. If u have trouble finding it ill see if i can find the link. Its fascinating and i believe he is telling the truth.
That ALONE WITH THE ODD THINGS IN THE SEA THAT GO ON.. huge WAVES COMING OUT OF NOWHERE,,,, HORRID STORMS coming up suddenly that kill people in boats and aircraft's that Are never seen again,,, odd lights...ect... Something is going on and it has the feel of a deep supernatural element.
There have been others that have seen tunnel like clouds in the sky over the Bermuda triangle and got out of it by the Grace of God,,,and lived to tell about if anyone will believe them.
Also of course there's the old myths of mermaids and cities under the sea.... I don't believe that pure imagination. Think on the great books we have today that are considered master pieces such as " Gone with The Wind: Or 'The Grapes of Wrath".... based on aspects of truth....
I have been in deliverance and in that we have dealt with water and mermaid spirits. I don't think they are actual living flesh and blood creatures but are of the demonic supernatural realm....... On that same site or one very much like it talks about such things. These sites are not new age BUT CHRISTIAN BASED. Immanuel IS A CHRISTIAN NOW.
Also the ocean is very deep... and it could lead to deep caverns and caves that go deep within the belly of the earth. So deep man cannot reach it..
Therese a little known story of legendary deep sea diver "Cousteau ""brother i believe or brother in law who had a horrible experience wile scuba diving. Its online. Of course it could be a urban legend but my gut tells me its true. I have only found a little of the story as its something that seems has been kept quiet but has made its way to the internet, He heard some things that frightened him real bad.... ill try to find that link to.
The thing is not to dwell to much on it because God is still the GOD OF THE LAND AND SEAS. AND THEY STILL OBEY HIM. SATAN MAY HAVE A LAIR UNDER THERE SOMEWHERE..BUT JESUS CHRIST IS STILL LORD OVER THE LAND AND SEAS... SO BE NOT AFRAID

Marine Spirits Under the Sea and Supernatural Cities Under the Sea, Bermuda Triangle -- from PRweb site 3-08.
~ It may not be very important in the 'grand scheme' of things (like being sure of one's salvation), but I would like to know if these "marine spirits under the sea" and the "supernatural cities" are for real. It sounds like science fiction, but, even though very few people believe they are real, I think that they ARE.
~ I know that my father (a devout Believer and servant of Christ) laughs at the idea of the above mentioned.
~ NOW is no time for any true believer to be slacking off when there are so many unseen enemies to be on guard against. Abiding in the Word of God, and pleading the Blood of Jesus Christ are absolute necessities! I did not even know many of these critical things (true repentence, etc.) myself a couple years ago.

The staunch atheist has the zeal of a religious fanatic. He is fundamental in his belief that there is no God, and armed with basic Richard Dawkins phrases, he is ready for a fight. For him, atheistic evolution is a hill to die on, because that worldview opens up a pleasurable world of immorality. He thinks that it gives him license for fornication, pornography, and every other sinful pleasure his wicked heart desires. To him, there are no moral absolutes, because there is no God, and therefore no Moral Law. He is unreasonable, angry, bitter at God, and will color his speech by blaspheming the name of the God he doesn’t believe exists. The atheist is someone who pretends that there is no God.

How can you tell if someone is astral projecting on you? I had a Pastor, yes a Pastor who always seemed to know things that were said in private. Sometimes I would make comments about him in the car (because he was a very angry, controlling man) and inside me could "feel" that he knew and was upset about it. When I would see him a few minutes later, he wouldn't talk to me or even look at me and acted angry. He would say things from the pulpit that had to do with what I had said. I would also be attacked by demons at that church and after church at home during that time as well. He was a very manipulative man and highly intelligent. He would plant negative thoughts in people's heads about other people in the church. He was very legalistic.

Can anyone give me insight on this?

Quote# 109145

Now I will jump right on in to our reasons for not cutting our hair:

1. God made man and woman with specific differences and hair is one of those features. Rev 9:8 – “And they had hair as the hair of women, and their teeth were as the teeth of lions.” This shows that women have a certain type of hair and that it is different from men’s.

2. 1 Cor 11, the majority of the chapter is like a holy grail about hair! So much is mentioned in this so I will go into some of it…

~We should be covered in order to have power and because of the angels (verse 10). Note, hair does not have power in itself, but it is a visible symbol of our power we have through God.

~Verse 15 says that hair is a covering! By wearing long, uncut hair we are submitting to God. As “Covered By Love” says so well “a woman’s outer covering reveals an inner acceptance of God’s plan. By her conduct, of her own free will, she gains power on her head.” God covers the things that He loves and are valuable to Him. (I should mention that while the verse does say “long hair” this means uncut hair, and is not referencing any type of set length. Hair is long if it is allowed to grow without cutting. So you could have 10 inches of uncut hair and it would be “longer” than 30 inches of cut hair. The length of the hair is not a judge for how “holy” that woman is.)

~Verse 5-6 say “but every woman that prayeth or prophesieth with her head uncovered dishonoureth her head: for that is even all one as if she were shaven. For if the woman be not covered, let her also be shorn: but if it be a shame for a woman to be shorn or shaven, let her be covered.” This means that if we cut our hair it is a dishonor to pray or prophesy uncovered, and since 1 Thessalonians 5:17 says to “pray without ceasing” then we must have a never-ending covering on our heads aka our hair! Another thing I’ve learned is that the “shame” mentioned in verse 6 comes from the Greek word for “filthy” or “disfigurement” (much like if we cut off an arm we are disfigured, so too if we cut off our hair!)

~In verse 10 Peter says “for this cause ought the woman to have power on her head,” notice the use of “ought” and not “must.” The Greek for “ought” means “owe,” be in debt for,” or “that which is due.” So we women can CHOOSE to give God what He is owed or due.

3. We use hair to express what we are so to say. Rockers, goths, preps, hippies, they all have signature hairstyles to show what they believe in. So in a way, our hair is helping us to stand out and show people that we believe in and worship God. Our hair separates us from the world and sets us apart for God.

4. Biblical examples of women cutting or losing their hair are not not happy ones. In biblical times women never cut their hair, it was their greatest ornament, and if cut it was the greatest humiliation to the woman. Isaiah 3:24 is about how the daughters of Zion were “haughty” and “wanton” so He turned their “well set hair to baldness.” Jer 7:29- “Cut off thine hair, O Jerusalem, and cast it away, and take up a lamentation on high places; for the Lord hath rejected and forsaken the generation of his wrath.” Ezekiel 7:18 – “They shall also gird themselves with sackcloth, and horror shall cover them; and shame shall be upon all faces, and baldness upon all their heads.” I do not want to be like those women!
I get silly comments from people frequently so here is some biology for you (because I AM a bio major, haha) = cutting your hair does not make it grow faster, cutting does not affect the health of the hair at all because hair grows inside the skin! Before hair even reaches the outside of the body it is dead, densely packed keratin. Cutting your hair does not make it longer for two reasons. First, it is obviously removing length from the hair, and second, hair has a programmed “terminal length” that it will not grow past no matter how often you trim it. Bam, biology!

By choosing to not cut our hair we are submitting to and obeying God and gaining glory, power, and a connection with angels. Wow. By letting our hair grow to its natural length we wear a covering that God made specifically for us, and I don’t want to alter what God made. We do not chose not to cut our hair in order to follow God, rather we follow God so we chose not to cut our hair. Think about that for a second…

I hope this helped you to better understand the Apostolic women’s choice to not cut their hair and I hope this blessed you in some way! Please feel free to comment!

Quote# 109144

My daughter and I watched the movie, 'Heaven is for Real", and she started telling me about seeing the blue figure sitting on the dresser a few years ago, and seeing the shadow.. My oldest son also told me a few years ago where one morning when he and I were up, about 6 am, he saw a short black shadow pass into the living room, he said the dog turned and saw it as well,, I had thought perhaps at first it could have been a car passing down the street, but no, it was dark in the house, and at 6am in the morning we would have seen car lights on the wall, not a black shadow... he also has said that about 5 year or so ago , he felt his blankets being moved off of him while he was sleeping , he still remembers that... I myself do not see black shadows, but as a child I did see the spirits, from their true form, to seeing a black cat about 2 or 3 feet tall, seeing the little girl and boy standing in the door to my room, hearing noises such as my drawers on the back of my bed sliding open and close , I have woken up in the middle of the night a few years ago hearing someone call , mom, a couple times, as if someone were standing next to me, thinking it was one of my kids, but they were all asleep.. Also taking a nap and hearing what I thought was my kids calling me but when I got up they were all outside and not near the house.. My daughter, several years ago, when she was smaller, would have bad dreams, would wake up , crying, almost hard to comfort her, she would say things are too close, the room is too close, I had a hard time understanding what she meant, and why it was scaring her so much.. it would be hard to get her to rest again and at times when I would and she would lay back down , after a few minutes or so would wake back up crying again.. I cant recall her doing that for awhile now.. it was quite an ordeal even for me to see her go through that.. I feel almost like these things, monsters, have followed me to every house, residence, I have been to and lived at since I was a child and since seeing them as a child.. I used to not like to think about seeing them as a child, I would talk to God as a child, thinking I could not tell I saw them for if I did it would make it worse,, but I would sing songs to God, to Jesus, Jesus loves me, etc.. feeling it would make it better.. I remember after my grandmother died, when I was about 6 or 7 years old, I woke up in the night and saw her standing or floating at the end of my bed, with Jesus, both dressed in a white robe or gown, staring down at my mother lying in bed next to me, after seeing the monsters I would often go get my mother to come sleep with me.. then a few years later my mother died... I do believe it was Jesus I saw and my grandmother, perhaps my grandmother wanted to see her daughter after she died,, it has stayed with me all these years...
Thanks for the prayers.
