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.

Therefore, give their children over to famine and deliver them up to the power of the sword; and let their wives become childless and widowed. Let their men also be smitten to death, their young men struck down by the sword in battle.

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.

Atheists Beware
I taught leadership at the University of Virginia for more than two decades, and I’ve led hundreds of executive seminars on the subject. I’ve also written two books on leadership and consulted with people in business and government. One simple fact stands out as I consider the evidence gleaned from my experience. Every one of us is afflicted by the same arrogance gene. We think we understand things perfectly most of the time, even though the evidence tells us otherwise.
I used an exercise in my classes and seminars to drive this point home. It involved asking participants to describe what they saw in the picture below:
Their responses ran the gamut. Some of them saw a kitten; others saw a satellite photograph of the earth; still others saw a telescopic photograph of the moon; while others saw a lady’s face.
Then I would ask, “Does anyone see a cow in the picture?” Typically, 1 in 10 people can see the cow in the picture on their own, and 1 in 10 people will never see it. I can’t explain why. After I outlined the cow for the group, 8 out of 10 people who could not see it on their own would say, “I see it, I see it.”
Once you’ve seen the cow in the picture, it’s virtually impossible not to see it, and it really is a picture of a cow. It’s not a good picture, though. If it were, the exercise wouldn’t work. You’ll find the picture at the end of this SnyderTalk post with the cow’s face outlined and circled.
It took one more question to make my point. I asked someone in the group who thought she saw a satellite photograph, for instance, what the picture was before she saw the cow. Without fail, she (or he) would say, “Before I saw the cow, it was a satellite photograph.”
My response was slow and deliberate: “It was a picture of a cow all the time, and your seeing it did not make it what it is.”
This exercise had a powerful impact. There is a reality over which we have no control, and it is not dependent on our seeing it.
If you reject God’s existence, you are making a tragic mistake — one that you’ll regret for eternity. Beware because the consequence for an error is beyond description.

SnyderTalk Commentary:
The United Nations is a source of embarrassment to the United States and the world. Focusing attention on the institution is long overdue. If the U.N. can’t be reformed, it should be dissolved. As it stands, the U.N. is little more than a forum for dictators and thugs to sound forth on a global stage without fear of consequence. At the very least, we the people of the United States should not support that kind of abuse with our tax dollars.

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.
