Great article Henry!

Far more of us Christians need to spend much more time in the presence of God. A great little book along these lines of prayer and the cross is "Experiencing the Depths of Jesus Christ" by Jeanne Guyon. It has an excellent anointing on it which is very rare nowadays in this ungodly generation.

Beautiful essay by Evelyn! It warmed my heart and changed my whole outlook for the day.

I am a 67 y.o. American male and wanted to take this opportunity to contact you and let you know just how important you and your work are to me personally. Even though you seem to criticize yourself to some degree in your latest essay, you are on the front lines of this ongoing spiritual battle and are doing God's work by pursuing truth and calling out evil.

I have been seeking the truth ever since I took to intensive research online 13 years ago after being diagnosed with stage IV lymphoma and early signs of liver failure. I obviously survived but it has been a long tumble down a seemingly endless rabbit hole of mind-blowing discoveries and I can say that of all the truthseekers that I follow, YOU are at the very top of my list. I check your website and Twitter feed several times per day to stay up on current happenings with the Makow perspective.

Your latest article is another in which you share your heart and your own personal experiences, struggles, and observations as you have done in many others and I feel like I know you on some level. For example, I can so relate to your description of the way in which the zeitgeist of the 60's à la Hugh Hefner-ism became the paradigm of so many college age males, myself included.

So please don't be hard on yourself because there might be a shortage of direct face-to-face human interaction in your world. There are many people out there whom you will never meet in person but yet whom you have positively affected on a personal and profound level, myself included. I believe that there is no higher calling than an objective pursuit of the truth (and God by extension) and making the effort to enlighten others. You have a gift that is evident in your investigative journalism and your ability to express your thoughts through written words and I admire you greatly. Thank you for all that you do.

Thanks John,

All the encouragement I need is that people like you get what I do.

I read your article and the first comment.

I am 74 years old...I was a pastor for The Assemblies of God at the age of 33. I am no longer active in the ministry. I do lead someone to the Lord on occasion and perform baptisms and officiate at funerals. I now attend an Independent Baptist Church. We have only a piano and use only the King James Bible.

I relate and sympathize with the content of the article and with the first comment. I get the impression that the author of the first comment was involved with a Roman Catholic Church. If this is true the author might want to consider that the Church he was involved in could be a major part of his problem.

We can never lose our perspective and our discernment of good and evil. We can never become frustrated and worn out in doing what is right and loving good and innocent people just because evil abounds more and more, and steadily becomes more and pervasive and more and more evil.

If we do that...then Satan wins. I am not a pacifist...I am a Nam vet, a gun owner, and perfectly willing to defend my family with deadly force.

We can not allow the prince and the power of this age and this world of depravity we live in to wear us down to the point where Satan has made our very lives insignificant.

Take heart and know that The Lord Jesus Christ, Our Heavenly Father, and The Holy Spirit...Along with the Holy Angels and all the Saints of God will definitely prevail in the end. As we wait for that day when God will set all things right and just, we must ask for faith from Jesus who is our great high priest and the author and finisher of our faith. We have been translated out of the kingdom of the darkness of this age and this world we live in, and into the Kingdom of God's dear son. If we will call upon these truths, we can find a place of peace and balance for our souls.

Here is the call for the patience of the Saints.

Hi Henry. I just read your confession and the challenges it carries. You are not alone in currently experiencing life this way. We have been done to in so many ways. What I primarily blame is the destruction of the family unit, with a loving mom and dad at the top working together to make life not only workable but beautiful, safe, and interesting.

But more than that, it's the extended family that is getting more and more disjointed, even invisible. Aunts, uncles, cousins, second cousins, etc., they used to add to our fortification of feeling solidly connected and of being loved. It was almost like we had an inner knowing that if anything happened to dad and mom we'd have grandma and grandpa or this aunt and that uncle. There was back-up beyond back-up and we were to some extent, and at least concerning physical well-being, secure.

Then it all hit: porn and all its attending pervasions. War and hatred. Poison in our food and all around us. A leadership not only toxic but evil, and a horrible and invasive police state. So finding ones self-bereft of loving and of being loved is what we ended up with.

I have found that it's all up to me, the love-generating I mean. I have to make it happen, have to find ways to uphold traditions that brought us together and made us human. Have to keep reaching out. I will do this 'till I drop because I won't let the bastards win, those who want to take everything from us.

And so Henry, though I never met you, and only going on the years I've read you, I can honestly say I love you. I love you as my brother in the fight.

Dan Abshear said (September 22, 2018):

We need to acknowledge that we do in fact have a soul.

I've been beat up the past few years. But in that time I've always cared for others. Presently I keep an eye on Emerson, my 63 year old black friend who is a meth addict. I try and encourage him to eat and sleep, and I try and make sure he is safe. Quite a few more came before Emerson entered my life. I've wrote about a few of them.

Being human is expressing love to others I feel.

Sydney said (September 22, 2018):

just wanted to leave you some kind of encouragement.
I understand your struggle completely, as its one in the same with mine, but as Christians, we must fight the good fight, just as Paul and the other believers did. (The Lord understands our struggles, but that doesn't excuse us from pursuing peace and holiness).
The end is almost here.

1 Timothy 6:12
Fight the good fight of the faith. Take hold of the eternal life to which you were called when you made your good confession in the presence of many witnesses.

2 Timothy 2:3

Amos 5:14

Seek good, not evil,
that you may live.
Then the Lord God Almighty will be with you,
just as you say he is.

Marcos said (September 22, 2018):

Commenter M. A. misses the point on what Christianity is. Its beauty is that it is realistic.

Instead of denying life in some gnostic way, calling the world an illusion or rejecting human feelings as "oppression", it embraces love in this world and postpones total transcendence to the afterlife.

Now it is time to learn, to recognize evil, to do good to your neighbor. Get your hands dirty now, be tested, improve yourself. In heaven, you won't have these opportunities.

Yes, the world is cruel and hard, but the presence of sin perfectly explains why it has fallen. And if you get discouraged, just remember that God in Jesus went thru exactly all the temptations and hardships you are facing.

Don't expect some sort of false ethereal bliss, cheap emotional thrills. Be courageous and do what is true and right. Suffering will soon end.

Peter S said (September 22, 2018):

Hi Henry, I'm sad to hear the story of your dehumanization.
I see 98% beautiful people all around. Yes the world is in a monstrous grip, but that leads with me to compassion. Our reality is a giant theater show anyway, so I suggest you choose to 'live it' and enjoy it.

James C said (September 21, 2018):

Given the absolutely incredible ongoing and comprehensive business and technological involvement of the Israelis with the Chinese, I wrote an article concerning the possible present-day identity of the Khazars. I found that according to several sources, the Khazars were a Turko-Mongolian people. It was more than a little interesting, therefore, that George M. Lamsa in his translation of the Peshitta, the authorized Bible of the Church of the East, translated the prophecy of Ezekiel 38:2 as "against China, and against the land of Mongolia." If the Israelis are indeed the Mongolian people of this prophecy, it fits perfectly with the present Sino-Israeli relationship.

Chad said (September 21, 2018):

Always take the opportunity to remind people that “Semites” are Arabs. It’s a racial term. Jew, along with Christian and Muslim (Buddhist and others) is a religious term. You can be any race on the planet and still be Jewish. Remove from Jews the (don’t pick on me) armor they’ve hijacked, in order to avoid criticism. While it can somewhat be argued, yes, a great many of them just may have a tinge of Semitic blood, that’s all it is.

Imagine running into a Caucasian in America who claims to have 1/32 or 1/64 Native American blood. That doesn’t make this person Native American. Sorry, pal! You just don’t have enough. Most people, at least in the West, who call themselves Jews, are highly dominant European, followed by other races. At any time, they can “convert” to any other religion. At which point, they stop being a Jew and start as something else.

Join in the effort to help “Jews” understand their moniker is nothing more than a religious terms.

Thank you, Henry, for the informative articles.
