Jeremiah 12: 14-17
Thus says Yahweh concerning all My wicked neighbors who strike at the inheritance with which I have endowed My people Israel, “Behold I am about to uproot them from their land and will uproot the house of Judah from among them. And it will come about that after I have uprooted them, I will again have compassion on them; and I will bring them back, each one to his inheritance and each one to his land. Then if they will really learn the ways of My people, to swear by My name, ‘As Yahweh lives,’ even as they taught My people to swear by Baal, they will be built up in the midst of My people. But if they will not listen, then I will uproot that nation, uproot and destroy it,” declares Yahweh.

Jeremiah 18: 17-18
“Like an east wind I will scatter them before the enemy; I will show them My back and not My face in the day of their calamity.” Then they said, “Come and let us devise plans against Jeremiah. Surely the law is not going to be lost to the priest, nor counsel to the sage, nor the divine word to the prophet! Come on and let us strike at him with our tongue, and let us give no heed to any of his words.”

Falsely Accused is a true story about a young woman who was accused of committing a double homicide. It’s about a travesty of justice, and it reveals Yahweh intervening in the life of a believer to rescue her from danger in the face of seemingly insurmountable odds. Everyone will enjoy the book, but young people in particular need to read it because the mistakes made that led to the problem could have been avoided. They were the kinds of mistakes that young people are prone to make. As they say, forewarned is forearmed.

Barack Obama must have learned everything he knows about business and government by playing electronic Monopoly.
Katie and I rode out Hurricane Irene in Massachusetts. The winds were strong and whipping, but all-in-all it wasn’t much of a storm. We did lose electricity for several hours, but that just opened the door for playing board games that we played as kids.
Our niece, Danielle, wanted to play the new electronic version of Monopoly. That suited me just fine because I enjoyed the game as a boy. If you haven’t played the electronic version of Monopoly, you may not like it. The game doesn’t have paper money. It uses something that resembles a credit card instead. The names of properties have changed almost completely, and the Monopoly economy has been inflated beyond recognition. For instance, you get $2,000,000 for passing “Go.” When I was a kid, I think you got $200 for passing “Go.”
While we were playing, it dawned on me that our president, Barack Hussein Obama, must have learned everything he knows about business and government by playing electronic Monopoly. My first hint was the $2,000,000 that every player gets for simply passing “Go.” In Obama’s world, everyone should be a millionaire, and no one should be required to earn anything – except in sports, but that’s another story.
My next clue came when one of our players found herself in financial difficulty. Under the rules of the game, she should have been forced to sell property to raise the capital she needed to pay her expenses. Instead, we voted to give each player an additional $5,000,000. That solved her immediate problem, but it inflated the economy for everyone.
Within a few turns, Danielle needed a piece of property that was owned by the player who was in dire financial straits so she made a deal with her to buy it. Problem is the other player hadn’t taken into account the inflated value of everything, and she sold it to Danielle for just 20% more than she paid for it. She thought she made a great deal, but I objected as strongly as I could without offending anyone. I explained that owning that property would enable Danielle to build houses and hotels on all three properties in the group and wipe her out if she was unfortunate enough to land on any one of the three properties. The deal went through anyway, and we continued playing.
A few turns later, Danielle needed a piece of property that I owned, so I decided to negotiate. I already owned one airport, and Danielle owned two of them. In the modern version of Monopoly, airports have taken the place of railroads, and the payoff for owning several of them is huge. I told Danielle that I would sell her the piece of property she needed in return for both of her airports and plus $5,000,000. Since I paid only $2,000,000 for the property, Danielle turned down my offer, but I knew she would need it later so I didn’t budge and inch.
It didn’t take long for Danielle to realize she needed that property no matter what the price, and she was on the verge of closing a deal with me when we got hungry and decided to take a break. Thankfully, we never finished the Monopoly game, and we started playing Trivial Pursuit when we finished eating because several of Danielle’s and her brother Billy’s friends came over. We played Trivial Pursuit in teams; Danielle was my partner; and we won.
As I said, the Monopoly experience convinced me that Barack Obama must have learned everything he knows about business and government from electronic Monopoly. No one is required to accomplish anything to become a millionaire; if anyone finds himself in financial difficulty for any reason whatsoever, the solution is to give everyone lots of money with no strings attached; and debt is not an issue. Problem is Monopoly is not the real world. I wish our president understood that.
Well, I have to hurry. We’re going to Martha’s Vineyard today. The sea is calm, and the sky is clear. Best of all, President Obama fled the Vineyard while Irene was approaching so there is no chance that we’ll see him there.

Joel 3: 17-21
Then you will know that I am Yahweh your God, dwelling in Zion, My holy mountain. So Jerusalem will be holy, and strangers will pass through it no more. And in that day the mountains will drip with sweet wine, and the hills will flow with milk, and all the brooks of Judah will flow with water; and a spring will go out from the house of Yahweh to water the valley of Shittim. Egypt will become a waste, and Edom will become a desolate wilderness, because of the violence done to the sons of Judah, in whose land they have shed innocent blood. But Judah will be inhabited forever and Jerusalem for all generations. And I will avenge their blood which I have not avenged, for Yahweh dwells in Zion.
