It is such a shame

Dear Editor,

It saddens me that when I read our Richmond County Daily Journal, I have a problem with you not giving more information of families that have passed away.

Not long ago, I had a friend from back in school that I had not seen in many years. Her father has passed away and by the Daily Journal not listing the family members anymore (unless the family pays for this to be published), it was weeks later that I found out about the death. I would like to know if the Richmond County Daily Journal requests payment for all the religious letters that are written to the Editor?

I feel if they were being charged for this service we might get to read something interesting. I am a Christian, believe in God, and read my King James Version of the Bible. It irritates me to purchase the paper and have these kinds of articles in the Editor’s column almost everyday.

It’s nice to read letters of appreciation for someone like the one from Pam Dillman. It is such a shame that there are not others that could find some things better to write about, instead of trying to argue about religion. Anyone that reads the paper will notice it is the same ones writing weekly. It would be nice if they would give each other their email address and keep in touch that way. It’s like children with drama; they should grow up and let it go. I suggest each one finds a Church of your choice and go to where you can receive a blessing. It’s all right to voice your opinion, but say what you have to say and drop it. Move on to something else.

I hope that the Richmond County Daily Journal would consider printing additional information once again when there is a death. This is our only local paper for our town and it would be nice to be able to pay respect to friends during their time of loss.

Dear Editor,

Thank you for this post. I agree with Nancy Leviner that it would be nice if the obituaries that are posted include more information. I have lived in RCO for over 20 years. I currently reside elsewhere in the state; however, I view yourdailyjournal.com daily to keep informed of events and people from my "hometown." It is a shame, as Nancy stated, that her simple request has turned into a religious debate. It is a shame that individuals who claim to be so "schooled" in biblical knowledge find it okay to argue with others when the Bible states that we are to "Seek Peace" with others. Everyone has a right to their opinion, but really? At least write about something that is relevant to the letter submitted to the editor if you choose to post a comment...Just Sayin.

Thanks again for all the support on my letter written. How this got so out of hand, I will never understand. All I was asking the Editor is to consider listing family names when there is a death so people that may know the families could pay respect. The part I was speaking of on religion, I was just asking the Editor if families have to pay to print information on obituaries, then why should there not be a charge for people that write letters to the Editor. I know that with what I would have to say, I would be more than happy to pay a fee to have my article published if the Editor felt it was worth reading. I feel if there was a charge for this, then articles published would be worth reading and people would be able to understand the contents in one’s letter. Writing a letter thanking someone for a good deed, showing appreciation toward someone, would be nice letters to share. Arguing back and forth doesn’t solve anything. The response I received concerning religion really had nothing to do with the content of my letter. I truly am not trying to tell anyone how to believe or who to believe in, but according to Genesis, God created man in HIS own image. Finally, John 3:16 says it all. I just pray that all of you will be richly blessed, and I will keep all of you in my prayers. Hope you will do the same for me.

Mamabear,

Heve you checked to see how many New Testament passages of Scripture came directly from thr Old Testament. I was somewhat shocked when I found out. A little research on your part might give you some insight.

"Love your neighbor as yourself"

If we don't love our neighbor how can we say we love the Almighty YAH.

Nancy-please go to the machine that you used to type your post and key in Vicarius Filli Dea,This will let let you see THAT the man of sin in Revelations truly is (sin).His title is the same title that FIRST Pope had that is listed in the W.B.E. named Dema(sus) . When you look at the word IE(THAT IS )ROME BETTER KNOWN AS "JE=Rome.He is the man of sin in the book of Hazon(Revelation in jerome's interpretation ,remember he was the secretary to #666 who gave us his interpretation of the Greek Ie=sus and translated the GREEK INTO LATIN Pope Damma(sus),a pig. WhY do I want to listen to your organizer/preacher for who refuses to go to a dictionary as you do,68 Dictionaries I LOOKED TRANSLATE HIS NAME BACK TO Yahusha AND YOU CALL ME IGNORANT.I FIND IT HARD TO LISTEN TO YOU OR YOUR PREACHER WHEN SCRIPTURE TELLS ME 13 TIMES HE WAS RAISED UP IN THREE DAYS, SHA-UL WHO RAISED THE DEAD SAID HE WAS RAISED IN THREE DAYS ACCORDING TO THE 0.T.SCRIPTURES.And you and your friends say I AM IGNORANT,WHO IS THE IGNORANT?Most of the verses I QUOTE COMES MY BRAIN,NOT YOUR BOOK BY PAGAN KING james.I translate the ENGLISH TO Hebrew in my Mind.The W.B.E.states that the Hebrew child who had no Dictionaries started to school at the age of five learning Hebrew until the age of 13 ,thats the age of accountability.If a 13 year old child can quote the first five books of the SCRIPTURES AS MOST PREACHERS STATE THEY CAN,HOW MANY BOOKS CAN YOU Quote AT YOUR AGE?REMEMBER LYING IS A SIN,SO DON'T FORGET TO TELL THE TRUTH WHEN YOU ANSWER ME.I know what we can do ,get the Editor that does not please you to plan a QUOTING CONTEST ON THE SQUARE IN Rockinghan invite you and your crowd which includes the 400 plus preachers in this county. Then invite Five of my crowd to QUOTE ALL THE VERSES THEY KNOW AND WE WILL SEE WHO IS IGNORANT AND WHO IS NOT .We will go one against one until one or the other runs out of verses .Rule is one cannot quote the same verse twice .One of us will recite for 30 minutes at a time ,only verse and scripture,then the first preacher will start.Erni will began on our group until the 30 minutes are up,I will recite last,since you say I AM FULL OF HOT AIR.We can let you and your good preacher go first,if you desire. Mr.Editor I AM ABOUT FED UP WITH THIS IGNORANT AND UNLEARNED WHO HAS A GOD WITH NO NAME.How can a person be saved by a God with no name.The statute of liberty is calledd the female god of liberty,if France had sent a MALE statute ir would simply be the statute of GOD,a he ,she,or it.Mr.Editor,IF THEY WIN THE QUOTING CONTEST,I WILL STOP WRITING.Place your bets using can goods folks , a messenger told me food is going out of sigh,up,up and away on the wind where 'Yah breath ' rides the wins.NO WONDER HE IS EVERYWHERE,HE IS INSIDE US AND OUTSIDE US.NOW PREACHER,IF THIS 'AIN't' right ,please write and tell me what is,do it on a bath room wall so more people will see it .We may rest on the Sha-bath rest within the Saaaaaaahhhaaa-DAY ,LIKE THE Seventh day Adventist do,who by the way cannot possible be a Cult because they worship the same sus all Christians do whose name is Je=sus.But THEY sure put out a good study Bible that has Vicarius filli dea in the 275 page study outline,Yah is good in the 303 pages in the English index AND YAH IN PSA>68:4,Isaiah (Yeshayahu on page #782 at the first page of the book of Isaiah>YESHAYAHU>MEANS Yahweh is salvation .This name is an excellent summary of the contents of the book.The Greek form in the Septuagint is Hesaias and the Latin form is Esaias.On page one of this KJV-study Bible is the Hebrew Title Bereshith which means IN the Beginning which has 49 letters divedd by 7 =7,THE PERFECT# WHEN YAHUWEH IS PUT IN THIS VERSE,NOT GOD.EACH CHAPTER TITLE IN THIS KING james Bible uses the same names as the scripture Bible does but this is a NEW VERSION,a new vision as the preachers say.I say lets have some common sence and say 3 days mean 72 hours.The nerve of some people,calling me ignorant and they cannot count to three,hog wash,sus wash,pig sus wash,sussussussussus,no I GO WITH YAH-U-WEH ON THE WIND.

easy3 you are beginning to sound really nutty now. What does this comment even mean? It has no rhyme or reason to it. Perhaps what you are writing is getting lost in translation from your brain to your keyboard? I do get you want to hold a "Quoting Contest" in the square but for what purpose? So everyone knows that you've memorized some scripture or know some Hebrew words? So what? Does that make you more special than anyone else? Even Satan can quote scripture.

Silvadoss if you claim easy3 is just having some fun and pulling our legs, again I say for what purpose?

Mr. Editor .Thanks for allowing the five who made negative comments about my post the liberty to post their comments about you and myself.Nancy wrote about 13 lines accusing you of being out of line.She wrote 10 about abolishing or stoping the Hebrew movement.If one wants to stop the 'Hebrew' movement,does that stop "The Hebrew"?Two days,18 hours ago ,2047 post concerning this letter and 4 post complaints.Thats 2043 that have not so far voiced their opinion.Mr. Editor ,do you think it would be right to stop our voices when 2043 are the majority?It took a majority on our high court to approve abortion,all Christians,it will take only one Hebrew to correct this action .FOUR DID NOT WANT TO HEAR OUR jabbering and and jabbered about it with opinions that are halt between two opinions (its in the scriptures jabbers so you look it up)Mr.Editor ,please continue to print their post,I enjoy trying to help the spirtually blind,I reap what I sow, (so) as long as I sow I ride upon the wind with 'Yah.' Yah is the first three consonants in Hebrew at the word YaH(THE SACRED NAME. Hospitality,Greek philoxeni which in GREEK MEANS LOVING STRANGERS .Jabbers can referance IST.Timothy 3:2,Tit.1:8,1ST.Peter 4:9,HEBREWS 13:2 , Abraham did it in Genesis chapter #18.Rebekah showed kind in Genesis 24:115>18.The Messiah showed kindness to me on the stake .THE LAW THAT WAS ABOLISHED SHOWED KINDNESS TO STRANGERS IN Lev.19;33-34,THE GOODSAMARITAN SHOWED HOSPITALITY TO A STRANGER ,Yahusha was NOT HOSPITABLE TO THE "SUS" FOR THEY ALL DROWNED IN THE SEA OF RELIGIONS ,HE HAS ONLY ONE BODY,FOR HE IS IN ME.The apostles were entertained and churches begin in homes homes.Referance acts 1:13,9:43,10:1>48,12:12,16:15&34,18:3.7,20:8,20,ACTS >21:8,16,>28;30,Romans>16-5,1st.Cor.16:19,Col:4:15.The letters to Phiemon,and second and third Yohanan (IOHN.greek) exhibit and exhort to hospitality.Now see if the JABBERS FIND IN THESE CHURCH MEETINGS WHERE THE APOSTLES EVER TOOK UP AN OFFERING .BLIND JABBERS CANNOT SEE,SO THE FOUR DO NOT NEED TO REFERANCE THESE VERSES.Mr Editor I AM ONLY HAVING FUN WITH THESE GUYS,GO AHEAD AND SEND THEM THE POST,ITS O.K.AFTER ALL Yah loves us all.Serious now,I have a question for all HAHAHAHAHA-HAWHAWHAWS AND EVE and (Hawwah in Hebrew.)When a man in scripture is mentioned as blind from birth,is that speaking of his new birth in Messiah,or his natural birth? Come on, tell me which one and I will give my opinion of your answer.We will see who fails the test.RGU1LEemember,base your answer on scripture or you flunkkkkkkkkk out.Thanks you Mr.Editor for all you have done.EASY 3,THATS me.

It is a shame that making a suggestion as I did has now turned into a religious issue. Why don’t you people live in the real world today instead of the Old Testament Days? Read the book of Revelations and you will find what has happened, what is happening, and what is going to happen. Folks, we are living in the last days believe it or not. I really don’t care how you believe, or what you believe, or who you believe in. All I have to give account for is myself. I am not afraid of dying, nor am I afraid of judgment day. That is something we all will face, again believe it or not. It is very obvious that some people that have nothing better to do than argue the Bible, have been educated beyond their intelligence. I don’t feel that I need to get my preacher to give anyone scripture that will disagree with what some of you have written. Everybody has an opinion of their own, and you know what has always been said about opinions…. EVERYBODY’S GOT ONE. Also be careful about assuming there is a saying about that too. Thanks to all of you that supported my letter. Let’s just remember those that have shown ignorance in their comments in our prayers.

Dear Editor - You have printed letters before from people who do not believe in God ,nor the God Allah,nor God Budda ,nor God Venus ,Nor the moon god,nor the tuesday GOD,wedesday God ,nor do atheist believe in the God of our thursday ,not the God of our friday ,nor the God of Saturday which was the Seventh day when God (YHWH) created the heaven and the earth.Now if they will tell me which god they worship,I will certainly not offend any of them,for I do not call anyone God,I call YHWH AKA Yahuwah aka Yahusha of Yisrael which is YAHWEH in my NKJ Prophecy Study bible 159 times at least saying Yahweh is good,Yahweh is love,Yahweh opens the womb, reward of Yahweh, Yahweh is wonderful,Yahweh has judged (j) is the Egyptian sign of the serpent.The bronze serpent in the scriptures was put on a pole for all the people that had rebelled to look upon and receive healing,they received healing by obeying Mosheh.This proved to the Yahudahs (Yisrael) that Yahuwah aka Yahusha had power over the serpent of Egypt.The pole with no cross represented the stake he was inpailed upon. Abdi >means servant of Yahweh,,Yahwehs word Matthew 5:17,Amaiah the grandfather of Zadok means Yahweh said,look this up in your KJB in First Chronicles 6;7&8 and change god into 'YHWH",or call him anything you want,if that is your hearts desire.159 times in the index alone it has Yahwah is this or that,but no where does it say he is a she,he,or it.Isaiah 23-1>Woe to the shepards (false preachers )who scatter the sheep of my pasture who will not see the new Earth and refuse to call on"Yah's name).Isaiah 12-2>Behold Yahuweh is my salvation.Yah is my salvation,I will trust and not be afraid.For Yah is my strength and song.Isaiah 26-Trust in Yah forever ,for in YAH IS MY EVERLASTING STRENGTH.Isaiah 38:11 I WILL NOT SEE 'Yah "in the land of the Living .Who will be left on Earth when the Yah believers go up,those that believe in the serpent.Psalms 12:2 "YAH & Yah rides upon a clouds,CLOUDS represent a covering,it covered Mosheh's tent ,the first place where his mercy seat dwelled.The cloud Yah was in and spoke to Moses ,the tent,a building,a temple he is not in.He Dwells in the human mind and body.SEE (1ST>COR.6:19 &20).Mr.Editor,I thank YOU FOR THE ONE LETTER YOU HAVE PRINTED FOR OUR MOVEMENT IN THE LAST WEEK.My suggestion is for the other side to get each others Email sites and mail each other,whats good for the goose is good for the gander they say.Mr.Editor if we stop writing,who will the other side complain about?In my eyes they have not stuided,only listened to the elect who say the sacred(set apart NAME has been put to shame.Mister Editor,my Nkj VERSION ANSWERED THAT.On page 212 it has the Words Vicarius Filii Dea =V=5,I=1,C=100,A=O,R=O,I=1,U=5,S=0=A TOTAL OF 112.Filli.F=0,I=1,L=50,I=1,I-1>TOTAL 53.DEA >D=500,E=o,I =1 .total 501.501 53 112 totals to 666.Vicarius Filli Dea is a Title that is used for ever pope that everlived including the last one and we know PETER was the first according to the CATHOLIC CHRISTIAN CHURCH WHO SLEW ABOUT ONE HUNDRED MILLION SO FAR SINCE ITS BEGINNING,THATS WHY I do not want to be called a #666 if the pope is 666,A Christian.Thank you Mr.Editor.

Say what??? easy3, I think you have way to much time on your hands!

March 03, 2013
I just wonder editor? If comments need to wait for approval then why does all this giberish about off the wall topics of Hebrew definitions get approval? It would make sense to me to eliminate the weakest link, being easy3 since all ur other subscribers are sick and tired of all their stupid remarks....can't one letter be a good one where they dont ruin it for everyone else?

|
March 04, 2013
I totally agree with you mabe2013!! Ernest Andrews and easy3 are becoming quite obnoxious with their commentary, especially when it has little or nothing to do with the topic! I think though that easy3 has a screw beginning to loosen! As hard as I try I can't make out what he's trying to say at all. Maybe if his commentary were more cohesive and had correct punctuation I could. All of this Hebrew jibber jabber is just too much! They probably won't understand what jibber jabber is since it has a "J" in it and there were no J's in the Hebrew dialect. Perhaps I should change it to a "Y".

Tehillim (i.e. Psalms) 68:4“…Raise up a highway for Him

Who rides through the deserts,

By His Name YAH, and exult before Him.”

Mal’aki (i.e. Malachi) 3:6 “For I am YAH, I shall not change, and you, o sons of Ya’aqob/Yisra’el shall not come to an end.”

Mattithyahu (i.e. Matthew) 13:14-15 “And in them the prophecy of Yeshayahu is completely filled, which says, hearing you shall hear and by no means understand, and seeing you shall see and by no means perceive, for the heart of this people has become thickened, and their ears are hard of hearing, and their eyes they have closed, lest they should see with their eyes and hear with their ears, lest they should understand with their heart, and turn back (repent), and I heal them

Yeshayahu (i.e. Isaiah) 6:9-10 “And He said, go and you shall say to this people, hearing, you hear, but do not understand; and seeing, you see, but do not know. Make the heart of this fat, and their ears heavy, and shut their eyes; lest they see with their eyes, and hear with their ears, and understand with their heart, and shall turn (repent) and be healed.”

Yes, it really is---such a shame.

Hello Ernie- Its such a shame ,I do not have the ability to write a letter that suits the ones who are so articulate in the English Language and have knowledge supperior to mine (and yours).So I ask this group this question.iIn the King James Bible we are taught that the anti Christ or the opposed of the Mssiah will come and proclaim himself God ,a substitude God.But how can he come when he has been with us since the pope declared that he was Gods substitute.We cannot have two anti-christ.Now the first pope stood before the seventy elders ,the cardinals and said see me, and presented himself to the world when there were no televisions and the world knew the anti-was was there .The pope could not see into the future and see a t.v. put his picture there.No one knows what the Messiah will look like,but he cannot look like the catholic pope,thats for sure.But last week one said THE NEW POPE WOULD LOOK Yahusha(aka jesus).Ayin,the seventh letter of the Hebrew alphabet represents the eye,sight,fountain ,knowledge,eye.When the popes stood up every eye that looked upon him saw him,if he looks like Jesus ,Jesus will look like the pope.Is this possible ?Rev.1:7-Behold he is coming with the clouds,and ever ayan will see him,even those who pierced him.666 has been on the earth the whole 200 years.

Is not our Saviour Hebrew? Were not Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob (later renamed Israel ~ the father of the twelve Hebrew tribes) Hebrew? Was not Moses Hebrew? Were not all our saviour's taught ones Hebrew? Was not Paul Hebrew?

A thousand years ago there was no English language. All of the above spoke Hebrew and/or Aramaic (see John 19:17-20;Acts 26:12-15; 2 Corinthians 11:21-23; Revelation 16:15-16).

easy3

Your rants are incomprehensible and distracting to the contents of the letter that was written. If you have something constructive and useful to say, please post your comments for us to understand. I know that I would appreciate it and I'm sure others would to.

Here is something u can understand.....SHUT UP for once....none of us can understand anything u EVER say....

March 05, 2013
Easy, it seems to me you are the only one ranting, and I seen no reason whatsoever for you to respond to this letter in the first place. It was a simple question as to why there is not more information about the deceased person's family. So what does that have to do with what you turned into the same nonsensical rambling you displayed the other day when Pam Dillman was thanking the young man who stopped to help her and her husband in their moment of crisis? Seems to me, if you have so much to say, get in a pulpit, don't go on and on about things that have nothing to do with the letters you are commenting on.........

March 02, 2013
Thank-you for your letter Ms. Leviner. I completely agree. I'm so FED UP with reading the inane drama that these few people flood the Journal with. I'm sure one of them will soon reply to my comment and offer the Hebrew definition of one of the words I've used along with a completely off the wall essay!
|
March 03, 2013
Hahahahaha!!!! I agree completely...wish they would shut up!! Im so gald someone elze agrees with me...
|
March 02, 2013
Ms Leviner, I certainly agree with you, I also have missed friends relatives death knowledge because survivors were not listed and I personally believe information concerning survivors is important local news rather than just a notice of that individuals death.

Dear Editor-Thanks for allowing this letter from this nice and misinformed person.Find a Church?When I hear a preacher say that my body is the place where the word of (God-Hebrew YAH)lives ,stays,takes up his residence.Dwell is a middle English word (dwellen,old French>Dwellan,to delay>to live as an inhabitant,reside,to exist in a given place or condition,to focus ones attention (keep dwelling on past mistakes ,to treat at length CORINTHIANS 6:19 AND 20 TELLS ME THAT HE DWELLS IN ME.Mr.Editor,why do I NEED TO GO ANYWHERE ,I AM THE CHURCH,A PART OF HIS BODY ,HE IS THE HEAD,THE CHIEF CORNER STONE ,OUR FOUNDATION STONE,THE ROCK CUT WITHOUT HANDS ,HE SAID HE WOULD PUT THE BODY OF BELIVERS IN BETWEEN.The head(the bride) all go to be with him,HIS FEET ARE SYMBOLIC OF HIS PURE WALK,THE DECIPLES FEET ARE SYMBOLIC OF THEIR OBEDIENCE TO THE MASTER,JUDAS IS SYMBOLIC OF DISOBEDIENCE .The building one goes to is not fire resistant,BUT THE BODY IS ,ASK THE HEBREW CHILDREN ON FIRE IN THE FURNACE.IF THIS IS WRONG,I AM SURE A PREACHER WILL USE SCRIPTURE TO PROVE ME WRONG,if this lady has a preacher who can prove this letter wrong,then he should write ,Letter to the Editor,P.O.Box 190,Rockingham ,N.C.If the Hebrew movement does not hear from him in '7'days ,we will assume we are correct,because if he can not correct us,then we must be right.What this county needs MR.Editor is more letters and less people preaching and more people searchering all things.Truth is truth even on a bath room wall,a quote from a man who knows the name and will not say it.His name is not jah,its Yah,Psalm 68'4.Which god is mine,YAH.EASY3

Most of this paragraph went over my head, though I did read it.... But the one sentence about third from the last really did intrigue me! Are you saying... That "FOR A GOOD TIME!" Those phone numbers really work?!
