It is now our time to turn to the word of God, Luke chapter 21. Luke chapter 121, and out text for today is verse 29 and following down through verse 33. Luke chapter 21, verses 29-33, "This is the Word of the Lord." Let me read these verses to you.
If you've been with us, you realize that the twenty-first chapter of Luke is a chapter about the return of Jesus Christ – not His first coming which we are celebrating at this time of year – but His Second Coming. And, in fact, the hope of every Christian is the Second Coming of the Lord Jesus Christ.
Christians are those who love His appearing. We are those who are looking for the blessed hope and the glorious appearing of our great God and Savior, Jesus Christ. We as Christians are awaiting eagerly for the glory which shall be revealed in us – that glorious manifestation of the sons of God to take place at Christ's return. We are waiting for the redemption of our body.
The New Testament says we are those who are waiting for the Son from heaven. We are waiting for the coming of Christ, waiting for that time when we reign with Him, when saints judge the world, waiting for the day when we shall all be changed; waiting for that day when sin is ended and we are presented to Christ as a chaste virgin to our bridegroom; waiting for that day when we are present with the Lord, when we shall be like Him, for we shall see Him as He is.
All of that, of course, is scattered throughout the New Testament because one of the dominant themes of the New Testament is the believer's hope in the return of Jesus Christ. It is not just one subject among many, but really is the most important of all subjects because all other truths direct us toward the consummation of everything in the return of Christ. Redemption finds its culmination in the return of Jesus Christ. It is the end of all history. It is the culmination of God's glorious purpose.
The truth of the Second Coming of Christ, the truth of Christ's return, then fills the New Testament. It is scattered throughout Scripture. Most significantly in the New Testament, the theme of the Second Coming is introduced by Jesus Christ Himself, and most comprehensively and most completely on the Mount of Olives, on Wednesday of Passion Week in answer to a question or series of questions posed to Him by the disciples.
That is why this chapter, along with its parallel in Mark 13 and in Matthew 24 and 25 is called the "Olivet Discourse." It is the teaching on the Second Coming given by Jesus on the Mount of Olives in answer to questions from His disciples regarding His coming and the end of the age and the establishment of His Kingdom.
It is a great answer; it is a sweeping answer to those questions, it is a comprehensive chapter. What we've done is gone through Luke 21, compared it with Mark 13, and expanded it in Matthew chapter 24 and 25. It is Christ's own teaching on His return.
Matthew says they also asked, "What will be the sign of Your coming and what will be the sign of the end of the age?" They were questions about the end of history and the establishment of the Kingdom of Messiah which He had promised, and which the Old Testament prophets had promised as well.
So, Jesus is answering the questions about His return, about His coming to judge, about His coming in glory to set up His Kingdom. His answer is very, very complete. It is not mysterious. It is not complex. It is not confounding. It is, frankly, straightforward and clear.
First He says, "Between My first coming and Second Coming," during that whole period which has now gone on for two thousand years, "there are some general signs that you can expect." Those are indicated in verses 8 through 19, and we went through them in detail. Primarily they can be catalogued into three separate sections. One, deception; the flourishing of a false kind of Christianity – false Christians, false teachers and a false church. We know that to be the case.
Secondly, disasters. There will be global disasters brought on by war, by natural disasters that will occur at every level and in every manner.
Thirdly, persecution; persecution of those who are true followers of Jesus Christ.
These three things in an escalating fashion, an increasingly worse fashion will characterize this period between the two comings. Those are the general signs which should be obvious to all of us. This is indeed the way history has unfolded; the words of our Lord are perfectly accurate.
Matthew and Mark also record this and they record the fact that it is connected to the prophecy of Daniel in an event called the Abomination of Desolation. Look for that. That is an event that occurs in the midpoint of a final seven-year period. It sets off a triggering of judgments that become worse and worse and worse.
So, the general signs: verses 8 to 19; a specific sign in the future will come in a generation yet to come in which they will see desolation in the land of Jerusalem imminent because the armies of the world will be surrounding that city with a threatening force.
They will then desecrate the holy place. The Antichrist will set up an image of himself there in the holy place of a rebuilt temple and call the whole world to worship no one but Him. That blasphemy and that sacrilege will trigger the final three-and-a-half years of divine judgment on the earth. So that specific sign is featured in verses 20 to 24. It ends up, of course, with death and destruction for Jerusalem.
And then, after that you come to verses 25 and 26. Near the end of that three-and-a-half years – the end of that terrible time of judgment triggered by Jerusalem being surrounded – near the end there will be what I guess we could call universe-altering signs – universe-altering signs. There will be signs in sun, moon, stars that produce dismay and perplexity. The sea will be affected, the waves of the sea affected. Verse 26, "...the powers of the heavens will be shaken," causing people to die from fear and the expectation of what all of this leads to.
So you have general signs through this sweeping two thousand years up to now. You have near the very end, just before the Lord comes, three-and-a -years before, this single sign of the desolation of Jerusalem. Near the end of that period of time you have the devastating universe-altering signs that are described in verses 25 and 26.
Then you have verse 27, "Then they will see the Son of Man coming in a cloud with power and great glory." So they ask the question, "What will be the sign of Your coming? What will be the sign of the end of the age? When are these things going to happen? What are we supposed to be looking for?" And he gives them the broad, sweeping assessment of what to look for, and we're living and watching all of those things in the general sign category. A future generation will see a specific sign – the desolation of Jerusalem – that will launch a time of unbelievable and unequaled judgment described in the book of Revelation, chapter 6 to the end, particularly the latter seals and trumpet and bowl judgments, and that will then lead right up to the return of Jesus Christ.
And the return of Christ, of course, is the final sign. When you look up and see Him in the universe that has gone black because God has turned out all the sources of light and out of the blackness comes the Son of Man in blazing full glory and power, returning to earth to judge all sinners and to bring all saints into the glory of the Kingdom He will establish when He gets here. So all of these things have now been laid out.
Now in verses 29 to 33, the Lord wants to seal this clearly in the minds of all who hear. And so He does what he very often does. He tells a simple story. It is an analogy. It is a parable. It is an illustration. It is not an allegory. It's not mystical. It's not fraught with secret meaning. It is a very simple story.
In fact, if I may be so bold as to say, I do not understand why eschatology for some people is so confusing when our Lord made it so simple. He made it so simple. And all of this teaching He did not give to sophisticated theologians; he gave to very simple working men who were not only simple but hardheaded and had difficulty grasping even simple things.
Our Lord's words are uncomplicated and they are unmistakable. This is not to make things difficult. It is to make things easy. And yet the passage I read to you this morning is one of the most difficult passages if you look at the myriad of interpretations that have been given to it.
I am really amazed at how the verses I read you have been convoluted by many, many interpreters of Scripture. So let's just look at it and take it as simple as the Lord intended us to take it. Let's put away our sophistication and just pretend, for the moment, that we are simple-minded fishermen, or workers with our hands, not sophisticated theologians; don't have a lot of backlog; don't have some great theological understanding; we don't even know what we here know. We know very little, and listen to it with that kind of simplicity.
I'm going to show you three things: an analogy, an application, and an authority – just some hooks to hang the progression of this text on. An analogy – a simple analogy, in fact – a specific application, and a supernatural authority.
Let's look at the simple analogy, and again, please keep in mind, the Lord used illustrations to make things clear, not to confound people. They are not riddles.
Now this is simply an obvious truth. If you see leaves, you know summer is coming. Leaves mean it is spring. And then fruit comes in summer. That's it. That's all there is here, folks. "Behold the fig tree and all the trees," and fig trees, by the way, were common in Israel and often used for spiritual analogies.
Jotham, in the days of the Judges, according to Judges 9, 10 and 11, used fig tree as an analogy. Hosea in Hosea 9:10 used the fig tree as analogous to the patriarchs. Jeremiah in Jeremiah 24:2 referred to good and bad people like good and bad figs. And Joel, the prophet in chapter 1 verses 6 and 7, used fig tree as an illustration of Israel.
So, this is a very common part of their life and very useful to others in illustrating spiritual truths. Even our Lord used a fig tree as an illustration in Matthew 21 verses 18 to 22 to teach spiritual lessons to the disciples about barrenness in their own prayers – and that's also repeated in Mark chapter 11.
So, both in the Old Testament and in the teaching of the Lord, the fig tree served a purpose as an illustration. It is designed to help people understand. In fact, in Matthew 24:32, where the parallel text in Matthew's record is, he says Jesus also said, "Now learn this parable of the fig tree." The point is: This is for your learning – manthanō – this is so you can understand. And the reason I press that point is because it seems to me that people turn these parables into very complex things when they are the most simple, especially when you have such a simple parable as this.
Remember in Matthew 13:10 and 11, Jesus said to the disciples, "It is given to you to know the mysteries of the Kingdom, to the others, it is not given. It's given to you to know." So, He would tell parables and to the crowd He wouldn't explain them. And if they don't get an explanation, then you don't understand the illustration because it is, after all, only an illustration and if it has no explanation you don't know what it illustrates. But "But to you," He says, "It is given to know these things. Therefore you hear not only the parables, but I give you the understanding of what they illustrate.
What is the simplicity of this parable? If you look at a fig tree – or for that matter, any tree – and you see it put forth leaves, softened and swelling with sap in the trunk and the branches in the spring, it begins to push out leaves. And by the way, precisely at the time our Lord is saying this, it is spring. It's Passover. That's spring.
It is spring, and probably in their view on the Mount of Olives, along with olive trees doing the same thing, there were fig trees and other trees. And when you see leaves, you know for yourselves. Nobody has to tell you. You know, by virtue of your experience, that summer is now near. Everybody understands that. Spring proceeds summer. If it's spring and it's spring when you see the leaves bud, then summer follows. Simple, simple analogy that you know what is coming by certain present signs. When you see the signs – leaves – you know summer's near. And with summer comes fruit and harvest.
By the way, harvest is always, in the Old Testament, a symbol of judgment as well as blessing. So, you have a simple analogy.
Now, let's move secondly to a specific application. What's the point of this simple analogy? Here it is, verse 31, "Even so, you also," or you too, "...when you see these things happening, recognize that the Kingdom of God is near." Hey, I get it, do you get it? When you see these things happening, you know that the coming of the Kingdom is near, just like when you see the leaves you know that summer is near. It's nothing more than that.
But the question that strikes me first is who is "you"? Who is "you" here? When "you" see these things happen, who is "you"? Well it has to be the people who see these things happen, right?
And then we have to ask, "What are these things," and that takes you back to verse 20, the surrounding of Jerusalem by armies which triggers the period of the great Tribulation. The signs in the sun, the moon, the stars, on the earth, the roaring of the sea and the waves, the powers of the heavens shaken, people in dismay, perplexity, dying from fear and expectation of what is coming; when you see those things, you then jump all the way to those people who are believers in Christ, who belong to Christ, who are Christ's people living in the time when those signs take place.
The disciples are only symbolic of those people. They are only representative of that future group of people. "You," meaning you believers, who are alive when you see these things happen. What the Lord is saying is: It's going to come very fast.
You remember He told a parable about a man who went on a long journey? We're living in the long journey. We're living in the long time, two thousand years now. But once those signs start – once they start – you can be sure that when you see these things happen, the Kingdom of God is near.
Now, that takes us to the next verse which seems obvious to me. The next verse, verse 32, "Truly I say to you, truly." I love that. As if the Lord needed to qualify anything He said by adding that? As if we had some question? Why does He say that? Why do we have in the Old English, "Verily, verily I say unto you," or "Truly, truly I say unto you?" It's for emphatic indication. It is for strong emphasis: I am telling you the truth; this is unequivocal, and I think He says that very often because it's stunning and He wants to affirm the veracity of it. "Truly I say to you," there's no mistaking this, folks. This generation, this generation, will not pass away until all things take place – this generation.
What do you mean this generation? What generation? What is the antecedent of "this"? You would be amazed at all of the answers. Wow! Perhaps a very, very common answer that you may have heard; I've read an awful lot about this in recent years, is that this generation refers to the disciples – the disciples. that they are this genea. Genea means generation, people, nation, stock, kind; it's a pretty generic term. That's where generic comes from actually. So it's a very broad term, but could I suppose, linguistically be applied to the disciples and the people who were living at that very time.
So some would say it refers specifically to the disciples. So Jesus is saying this is all going to happen in your lifetime. Wow! If that's what He meant, He was wrong. He was wrong, and there are some people who say that: Yes, that's what He meant and He was wrong. And they're happy for that because if He's wrong about this then He's not really God, and He's not really authoritative, and we don't have to pay any attention to all the other things He said about how we're supposed to behave.
And they say He admitted that He could be wrong because in Mark 13:22 He says, "No man knows the day nor the hour, no not even the Son of Man." So He admitted His own ignorance and so He said that He sort of established the grounds on which He could be wrong. So He meant the disciples, but He was wrong.
He did say that, that no man knows the day nor the hour, not even the Son of Man, but only the Father who is in heaven. But it's one thing for Him to voluntarily restrict His power, which He did in His incarnation, right? Like He said, "I could if I wanted to, have a legion of angels, but I've chosen not to. I could if I wanted to know all of that, but I've chosen not to." It's one thing for Him to restrict His knowledge in a self-imposed humiliation. It's quite another thing to be wrong. Those are not the same. And furthermore, by the way, after His incarnation was over He ascended back to full fellowship face-to-face with the Father and in full knowledge, without the limitations of His self-emptying.
Secondly, there are some who suggest – and this is equally a popular one – that it refers to the 70 AD destruction of Jerusalem. And what it means is this generation of people living in Jerusalem at this time, including the disciples – but broader than that, all the populous of this place – they're going to live to the destruction of Jerusalem which is only 40 years from now. So, this generation will not pass away before all these things come to pass. And this is the most popular amillennial view of this text. Reams have been written trying to defend this – hopelessly, I might add, because how in the world can you put into the 70 AD destruction of Jerusalem, "nation rising against nation, kingdom against kingdom," how can you put plagues and pestilences and terrors in the sky? How can you put the devastation of the sun, the moon, the stars, the seas, the powers of the heavens shaken? Come on, that's not 70 AD. You have one nation, the Romans, coming and attacking Jerusalem.
This is not the time which is indicated here in verse 22 as "the days of divine vengeance," nor is it the time that all things which are written may be fulfilled. And certainly – certainly for sure – in 70 AD the Son of Man did not come in a cloud with power and great glory. Just not possible. What happened in 70 A.D. was a preview, a mini-preview of the great destruction to come.
Others say it refers to the Jewish race; that it simply means that the Jews will survive till the end. They will not perish as a race. This genea, meaning this race – genea can mean that – Jesus is predicting the survival of the Jewish race. That doesn't make sense because they already knew they had an everlasting covenant. That's why they posed the questions. They already knew God had made promises, which we read about in Galatians chapter 3, made to Abraham which God will fulfill to those who are in Christ. They already knew that God had determined an eternal destiny for them, that God had made promises which were never going to be voided.
They knew that the Messiah was their Messiah, the Lord was their Lord, and He would come and establish the Kingdom. He had told them that. They didn't need to be told that they were going to survive because they already had an everlasting promise that had been reiterated to them by the Messiah Himself.
Another one: Some people say that this generation means the bad people – this generation – that using genea in the sense of an evil generation. In the Septuagint, the Greek translation of the Old Testament, it's sometimes used for the word "door" in Hebrew, which can refer to an evil generation or a righteous generation. And what our Lord is saying is there are going to be wicked people all the way till the Second Coming. Is that news? We don't need affirmation that we have an everlasting covenant and we don't need affirmation that there are going to be sinners until the end. It makes no sense; there's no point. There's no point in saying they're going to be Christ-rejecters until the end, or there are going to be evil people until the end. It's very vague, and why would He make such a point when it's absolutely obvious?
Another one that is very popular was popularized by Hal Lindsey in the book The Late Great Planet Earth, and some other books that came from that one. It refers to the people who see the birth of the nation Israel. Have you heard that one? And this is based on the fact that the fig tree is an allegorical picture of Israel; that Israel is the fig tree and if you see the fig tree bud, you're seeing Israel becoming a nation. That happened in 1948, by the way. Israel became a nation.
Well, in Matthew and Mark, they both speak of the fig tree. But Luke adds something. Luke says in verse 29, "Behold the fig tree and all the trees," showing that this is not something limited to the fig tree which then could be identified with Israel; this is just a general principle, true of a fig tree and true of all trees. Thank you, Luke, for putting that in. It's a general observation. It's an analogy, not an allegory.
And by the way, when that came out – that viewpoint – that the generation that was alive in 1948 would see the return of Christ; that conjured up a huge response. That book became the all-time best Christian book seller, and here we are, and that generation is gone. If the generation according to that book is 40 years, that all ended in '88. We're twenty years past that and the Lord hasn't come. So if you're still holding on to that view, let it go. It's over, folks; it's over. That one's gone. To start out with it was imaginative any way.
You see how complicated things can get? Let me tell you how simple this is. Verse 32, "Truly I say to you, this generation." What generation? "The generation that sees these things happen will not die until it's all taken place." Whoever is among the you who sees these things happen can know this, it's going to happen soon in your lifetime, and if you see the beginning, you're going to be there for the end.
If you see Jerusalem surrounded, if you're alive and you see Jerusalem surrounded and you see the changes and the devastating changes in the universe, you see those signs, you will see the Son of Man. Such a simple thing. If you see the leaves, you know summer is near. If you see the signs, you know Christ is near; He's at the door.
And our Lord is simply saying, "You asked Me a question. You asked Me, what do we look for? What are the signs?" And I'm telling you this, that generation alive that sees these things will see the Son of Man return. Our Lord is answering the question. And it will come very soon, very soon. As those things begin to disintegrate in the final few years of the tribulation, and particularly in the final months of the final year and the Lord then comes in glory and as Daniel points out, you have a 75-day transition from the judgments at the end of the tribulation brought by the return of Christ to the establishment of His Kingdom, it all happens fast.
If you're alive and you see the signs and you survive through that and you're not martyred – and we're talking about believers here; believers who are alive and looking and waiting for the coming of Christ – if you're alive when all that starts, you're going to be there when He returns and you're going to go into His Kingdom. That's all it means.
If this is looking for an antecedent, the obvious antecedent is you in verse 31 – you, you. It is this generation – the you that sees these things – that will see it all take place.
Now at this point I have to interject something. I – the way I understand the Scripture and it's stood the test of time, believe me, and the test of the text through all these years – I don't believe this is going to include the church because I am convinced that the way to understand the New Testament is that the church will be taken out and then the judgments begin and then a great evangelistic effort begins and people will be converted after the church is gone. They will constitute this generation in the midst of all of this, looking for the return of Christ.
And if they survive the persecution – if they're martyred – of course, they'll go the presence of the Lord. If they survive the persecution, they will then see the King come and establish His Kingdom.
People always say to me, "What is the evidence for a rapture of the church before all of this?" And I will just tell you this. It's implicit, not explicit. It is the best way that I can understand the Scripture, and I'll just give you a few reasons why I am still convinced of this.
First of all, in Revelation 1, 2 and 3 – Revelation 1, 2 and 3 – you have the church. The word occurs nineteen times. It's heavy on the church, a great vision of the church in chapter 1 in which the Lord is ministering in the church. And you have the churches being addressed and the letters to the churches in chapter 2 and 3.
After chapter 3, everything that goes on on earth – all the things that are said, all the warnings, all the descriptions, all the visions – totally void of any reference to the church. One could conclude just by that, that the church doesn't appear to be here. Add to that that in chapters 4 and 5 you go to heaven. Before the tribulation begins in chapter 6, chapters 4 to 5 you go to heaven and what do you find in heaven? You find a group called the Twenty-Four Elders, which – as hard as I can work at it – are best understood as the glorified church.
There are a number of reasons why. They have crowns, which are promised to the church. There are many other features that indicate the 24 elders to be the church. So you have the church on earth in 1 through 3. You have the church in heaven in 4 and 5, and you have the tribulation break out on earth in chapter 6. Then you have chapter 19, Christ coming back at the end of that time and coming with Him are the saints, "...clothed in white and fine linen," which is used to describe just prior to that the saints in heaven.
So, we are in heaven for the Marriage Supper of the Lamb, for our reward time, and we come back with Christ at the end of the time of tribulation. That seems to be a consistent way to understand the book of Revelation.
A second thing to think about is that there are no warnings of any kind, nor is there any instruction given to the church about how to endure the future time of Tribulation. We don't even get addressed as to how to survive in an antichrist world, how to survive when the whole universe is collapsing, etc., etc. In fact, all that comes to us is about our blessed hope, looking for Christ, waiting for His appearing, longing to be with Him. Titus 2:13, the glorious appearing of Christ, this blessed hope. So what is told to the church is not strong on warning; it is strong on hope.
Thirdly, the rapture is defined in first Corinthians 15, first Thessalonians 4, John 14 – three places. And in each case it is the church taken to heaven, taken out of the world, and taken to heaven. There's no judgment. Christ does not come to earth, He takes us to heaven. If that is describing the Second Coming, as some would say, and it comes at the end of the Tribulation, what's the point? What does He do? At the end, call us up and then bring us back? What's the up and down for? It doesn't make sense. If He's called us up to go to a place He's prepared for us, if He's called us up to meet our Bridegroom, if He's called us up to be rewarded – that makes sense – and then to come back with Him when He comes to reign. But if at the end we are snatched up into the air to be with the Lord, what is the point or coming immediately back?
And then another thought. If, as some say, we are raptured at the end of the tribulation, then the scene would look like this: Christ comes, destroys all the wicked; they're all dead; none of them are alive on the earth. All of them are destroyed; the day of the Lord, no one survives. And if all believers are raptured, right, what does that mean? You receive a glorified body and you're transformed. Then you have a big problem. Who populates the earthly Kingdom? You've got no unbelievers and you've got no living believers. So who populates the Kingdom? So who has babies? So who populates the nations? So where do the sinners come from that Christ rules with a rod of iron? Where do the sinners come from that rebel at the end of the Millennial Kingdom? Where do the Gentiles come from who are hanging on the garment of a Jew and wanting to be taken to meet Christ?
You have to have people survive – godly people, saints – believers survive the persecution and the horrors of the Tribulation so that you have sheep to go into the Kingdom to populate the Kingdom for a thousand years.
There is an hour coming of testing, an hour of trial, an hour of tribulation coming on the whole world, "I will keep you from that hour," tēreō ek, keep you out from; ek meaning out from a specific hour. He's not saying, "I promise you this, you'll never have any trouble in life." That would be ridiculous. "Count it all joy when you fall into various trials," same word. We're going to have those things, but there is an hour that is a specific time from which we will be kept, out of which we will be kept. That, I think, is a promise of deliverance that is consistent with first Corinthians 15, John 14, first Thessalonians 4.
Well I could say a lot more about that, but we'll leave it at that for the moment. At the rapture, the church meets Christ in the air. At the Second Coming, the church returns with Christ to the earth. At the rapture we go to heaven. At the Second Coming, we come to earth. At the Rapture, the Mount of Olives is untouched. At the Second Coming it is touched and split. At the Rapture, living saints are translated. At the Second Coming, no one is translated into heaven. At the Rapture the world is not judged; there's no judgment, sin gets worse. At the Second Coming, sin is judged; the world is ruled by righteousness. At the Rapture the body goes to heaven. At the Second Coming it comes to earth. The Rapture is eminent. The Second Coming has distinct signs. The Rapture concerns only the saved. The Second Coming concerns the saved and the lost.
So, I pick this point to just make this distinction; we're talking about you – this generation. We're talking about the people who have come to faith after the rapture of the church during the time of the Tribulation. That generation that is still alive to see these signs will see the end. They see the leaves; they'll see summer. They feel the birth pains; they'll be there for the event itself. This is just clear, straightforward instruction.
It leads to a third point, and a brief one but critical. From a simple analogy to a specific application to a supernatural authority – a supernatural authority. The next verse says, "Heaven and earth will pass away." Heaven and earth will pass away.
By the way, that is what happens after the Kingdom, right? The King is near, the Kingdom is near. But after the Kingdom, heaven and earth will pass away. That is true, my friend; that is true.
I watched something this week on the Discovery Channel about the Antarctic ice melt and how things have changed and people who had been there 50 years ago went back and saw all this, and they're saying if we don't do something we're going to lose this planet. We've got to save it for this generation, the next generation.
Let me tell you, folks. Relax. Heaven and earth will pass away. Just enjoy it while it's here. I promise you, you won't save it. You will not save it. Look, I'm not advocating stomping on flowers, I'm not advocating letting your grass die. I'm not advocating killing animals and being irresponsible. Look, God put Adam in the Garden to tend it, didn't He? So let's tend what we've got but look, yes it will be destroyed. Don't spend your whole life trying to fight God. You can't save the planet. You can't save the planet.
So, you know, you hear these people and they're so exercised about needing to save the planet. Now I just want to say to them, "Hey, hey, pick another job. Get another career." You know. If you want to save the planet, be a gardener; be a farmer; grow something. But all this harangue is pointless. Heaven and earth will pass away.
You say, "Oh, it's terrible, we're sending all this junk up in space." Don't worry about it. Long before all that junk has any effect, the whole thing is going to dissolve, and it's going to dissolve in a way described in second Peter chapter 3 that indicates atomic destruction, implosion, uncreation – the elements melting with fervent heat; the elements meaning the things that are in a row, the atomic structure. The heavens pass away with a crackling loud noise; the earth melting. It's going to happen. And it is going to follow the Kingdom.
Isaiah says it, and the book of Revelation says it, "A new heaven and a new earth," and Peter says it. Second Peter chapter 2 verse 13, "There will be a new heaven and a new earth, the final state." You can't save the planet. It will go out of existence by the Word of God just as it came into existence by the Word of God.
Peter uses the analogy of the Flood. Just as the Flood came and destroyed the world, except for eight people, by the word of God so this kind of judgment will come. By the Word of God; God will send this destructive stuff at the end of the tribulation. Then by His Word He'll stop it all, reverse it and you'll have a renewed, restored earth for a thousand years, at the end of which the whole universe goes out of existence and in its place a new heaven and a new earth.
So if you're looking for a chronology to your eschatology, there it is. You have history, time of Tribulation. At the end of tribulation, an escalation of fearful signs and the dissolution and destruction of the universe in the way that we know it in its renovation. You have Christ coming; judges the ungodly and rewards the saints, takes them into His Kingdom. The Kingdom of God comes for a thousand years. At the end of that Kingdom, there is the new heaven and the new earth. There's your eschatology. Jesus laid it out. It couldn't be more clear.
The only component here that isn't clearly revealed is the role of the church. But remember, at this particular point the church hadn't begun until Acts chapter 2, and so its unique identity is yet to be indicated.
Back in Luke `6:17, in the middle of His ministry; he said it at the beginning. He said it here at the end. He said it in the middle, "It is easier for heaven and earth to pass away then for one stroke of a letter of the law to fall." Well, that is an amazing statement, isn't it? It doesn't seem to me too easy for the whole universe to go out of existence, any easier than to bring it into existence. But it's easier for that to happen than for one stroke, one stroke of one letter to fail in the Word of God.
This is the truth, folks. This is the way it will be. Isaiah 40 in verse 8, "The flower fades and the grass withers, but the Word of the Lord endures," – how long? – "forever". Forever." All that I've said is absolutely true. This is the way it will be. And here we are living and we can see already that the age between the first and the second coming to be indicated to us in the general signs of deception and disaster and persecution – we've laid that all out – are just exactly accurate.
We could even see previews coming of the day when Jerusalem will be surrounded. They're already surrounded ideologically, and in terms of animosity by everything to the east of them that wants to obliterate them from the face of the earth. This is how it is. This is how it will be.
What's the point? The point is simply this. You were saved by the living and abiding word. It will not fail in your salvation. It does not fail to save, nor will it fail in your glorification. The word of God is the same true, abiding unassailable, unchanging truth when it speaks of the future as when it speaks of the present or of the past.
You were saved through the living and abiding word and you will be brought to glory through that same living, abiding word. Whatever God says is absolutely the way it is, whether He speaks of salvation, or sanctification, or glorification. And we look forward to the unfolding of this.
You say, "Well I don't know if I want to be raptured because I'd like to be there." Oh, you'll be there for the big moment. I'd rather be in heaven with Jesus than on earth going through this. But you'll be there in the great moment, returning in glory with Christ to reign with Him in His kingdom, and then forever. That is, if you know Him. Only those who know Him will be taken to heaven. It could happen at any moment. It is a signless, imminent event. It is the next thing; no signs necessary. Signs before the Second Coming, no signs before the rapture. We live in the light that at any moment in any fraction of a moment, trumps sound, the angel calls and we go. This is the next event in God's plan. It's only for those who know and love Christ. We're here to serve you and help you.
We have a prayer room to my right under the exit sign over there. We'd love to talk with you about that after the service. If you have questions we want you to come to know Christ, forgiveness of sin, salvation, the hope of heaven. We're here to serve you. If you want help on a spiritual problem; you want to know about joining the church – any spiritual need – that's why we're here. And this church, I trust, will be here faithful until these things take place. Let's pray.
Father, thank You again for the wonderful truth You've laid out for us. It is so rich and so straightforward. We thank You for the hope that we have – the blessed hope. We thank You that You are calling out a people from among the nations even now to Yourself. And we pray, Lord, that You would make all who are here this morning a part of that people. Be gracious to sinners who are not yet saved from future judgment. Save sinners, Lord. Turn them to repentance and true faith in Christ alone for their salvation. We pray in His name. Amen.

Q: How should I display images from the internet? I am working on an app that keeps track of who you lended your book to, and I want to add an image feature, so that users can see thumbnails of each book in the list. I can get images via the google books api, but then I have two options. One is downloading the image and storing it on the users device, which means more storage space, but then I don't need to download the images every time the user enters the application. Second option is the opposite, not storing on the device so less storage space but more internet usage. What should I do?

A: I'd recommend using a good 3rd party image loading framework, for example Picasso. It implements all the best practices of image loading on Android, including asynchronous loading and caching.

Cardina Bertone goes on television to defend himself and the Pope
Le cardinal Bertone analyse à la télévision les « attaques contre le pape » | La-Croix.com
Number two in the Vatican, Cardinal Tarcisio Bertone, Secretary of State, denounced on Monday, June 5, on state television RAI 1, the "ferocious, biting and organized" attacks against Benedict XVI in the case of leaked confidential Vatican documents, but said they do not frighten the pope.
"The have always been attacks intended to manipulate" even though "this time, however, it seems that the attacks are more targeted, sometimes fierce, biting and organized," he said. Benedict "certainly does not let himself not frightened by the attacks, whatever their type," he added. "What is most sad in this case and in these events, it is the violation of privacy of the Holy Father and his closest collaborators," observed the cardinal, speaking for the first time publicly on the matter.
Referring to "transparency", the Secretary of State, the "Prime Minister" of the Pope, said: "It may be an act of cynicism or superficiality: it is not enough to read some documents and publish documents. Partial to know the full truth about the facts: clarifications are the result of a work of dialogue, of personal relationships and also conversion of heart, which are not simply the result of paper or bureaucracy. ". For Cardinal Bertone, these events are "moments not of division but of unity, strength in faith, serenity in decisions, real cohesion between all those who truly want to serve the Church."
Secretary of State said that the pope "listens to all and moves forward, true to his mission." As he said repeatedly in Milan, during the World Meeting of Families, the motto is still "Courage! ".

We must never forget Jan. 6, 2021 | Editorial
By Editorial Board |
One year ago today, we witnessed one of the most horrific acts in the 245-year history of our nation.
A joint session of Congress had convened in our nation's Capitol to complete the traditionally routine task of counting the electoral votes to formalize the victory of President-elect Joe Biden. Unfortunately, this day would turn out to be anything but routine.
A crowd consisting of thousands of Donald Trump supporters gathered to hear the soon-departing president speak at the National Mall just south of the White House. He repeated his false claims that the election had been stolen from him and called on Vice President Mike Pence to overturn the results, and for Congress to refuse to certify the victory. After his speech, he told the crowd to "walk down to the Capitol" and "cheer on our brave senators and congressmen and women and we're probably not going to be cheering so much for some of them."
From there, much of the crowd indeed walked toward the Capitol, and things quickly went downhill. A small segment of the crowd — several hundred of the most extreme, dangerous people to ever set foot on that prestigious ground — marched up the steps of the Capitol, forced their way inside and caused all hell to break loose. The session of Congress was halted as overrun security forces tried to protect our elected officials and their staffs from the rioting mob. One protester, a woman, was shot and killed by Capitol Police while attempting to climb through a broken window and into a locked room.
Meanwhile, by all accounts, Trump — apparently far more concerned with moping over his "stolen election" than stopping the carnage that was desecrating our nation's Capitol — watched the riot on TV and waited several hours before finally releasing a video telling his supporters to "go home." It was far too little and inexcusably too late.
It was, simply put, one of the darkest days in our nation's history — one we must all vow to never let happen again.
It's impossible to find any silver lining in such a dark, disgusting cloud. But, on a slightly related topic, there is this: In a way, the actions of Trump's most rabid supporters that day could end up being just the thing that makes such awful tactics much less likely in the future. It could even go a long way toward keeping people like that out of office.
By going to such incredibly extreme and inappropriate means of trying to keep Donald Trump in the White House, his most violent supporters actually handed Democrats their single-biggest weapon in terms of staying in power — while possibly keeping Trump and his supporters out of it forever.
All they have to do is keep saying "Jan. 6, 2021," and you can bet that's probably what they're planning to do.
You're already seeing it pop up in ads and Democrat talking points. Get used to it, because it's just the beginning.
Thanks to Jan. 6, 2021, Democrats may not have to defend President Biden's largely dismal record in the 2022 midterms. They won't have to discuss inflation, or the fact more Americans have died of COVID under Biden's watch than ever died under Trump, or Afghanistan, or the record number of murders in many of our nation's largest cities, or supply chain issues.
Nope. All they're going to have to say is "Do you really want to go back to Jan. 6, 2021?" — especially if Trump decides to run for president again.
A favorite talking point of Trump supporters is, "The country has fallen apart under Biden, but at least we don't have mean tweets anymore." We shouldn't underestimate Trump's lingering appeal, or the fact the country hasn't exactly prospered under Biden's leadership, leading to a huge loss of support for both Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris.
But at least we haven't had thousands of Biden's supporters march on the most iconic government building in the country and attempt the most undemocratic action imaginable — preventing our elected officials from performing their duties.
How ironic that by attempting to strong-arm President Biden out of a legally secured victory, the most extreme of Trump's supporters have handed Democrats the biggest trump card they've got in terms of keeping him out of office in the future. They'll play it, over and over. And they should.
Jan. 6, 2021 must never be repeated.

Q: Comparing family member nodes in C++ I have been working on a family SinglyLinked list. I seemed to be unable to compare the family member.
The node consists of the following:
class Node{
public:
    int id, age;
    string name;
    char sex;
    string father, mother;

Node* next;
};

The code implementation:
Node* currNode = head;
Node* prevNode = NULL;
int index = 1;

//while the current node and the current nodes name is not string one
//n1 and n2 are strings
while(currNode && currNode->name != n1 && prevNode && prevNode->name !=n2){
    prevNode = currNode;
    currNode = currNode->next;
    index++;
}

if(currNode->father == prevNode->name){
    cout<<prevNode->name<<" is the father"<<endl;
}


We may remember to apply an SPF to our face daily, but what about our hands and feet? The thin skin on the back of our hands and tops of our feet are very similar to the face in how it reacts and ages with sun damage. Equally our heels can also become dry and cracked due to wearing shoes and being on our feet all day.

Film festival showcases many different communities.
The film "Pick of the Litter" follows the five Labrador puppies — Patriot, Poppet, Potomac, Primrose and Phil — as they train and graduate from Guide Dogs for the Blind. Dogs are invited to register for and attend the film showing April 4-17.
SFFILM
Gabriella Vulakh, Senior Reporter
The San Francisco International Film Festival will showcase a wide variety of cinema in its upcoming 61st year, including films featuring hot button issues such as gender identification, women in space, puppies and science fiction.
The festival, founded by local movie theater owner Irving Levin, will feature 183 films and 45 countries ranging from narrative features, new vision features, documentaries, shorts and episodic programs, eight of which are world premiers. The festival also includes live performances by world renowned musicians such as the Kronos Quartet.
"This year we have been able to create a festival that organically feels very real and meaningful to us and the community," Executive Festival Director Noah Cowan said. "The festival articulates Bay Area values such as a belief in diversity, education around media, a global perspective making a gateway for international cinema, a belief in championing new voices, and cultivating tomorrow's story tellers."
The opening night film, "A Kid Like Jake," directed by trans filmmaker Silas Howard showcases the life of a non-binary child and addresses how their family and friends must contend with their behavior and schooling. Adapted from Daniel Pearle's Off-Broadway play and starring Jim Parsons, Claire Danes, Octavia Spencer and Priyanka Chopra, the film was among the big hits at Sundance Film Festival this year, according to Cowan.
"It very much excites me to see what filmmakers are doing with different styles of storytelling," Programmer Amanda Salazar said. "There is something really special about connecting with stories about various topics and from around the world."
"Pick of the Litter" by Don Hardy and Dana Nachman, which documents the lives of five Labrador retriever puppies from birth to graduation from Guide Dogs for the Blind, is another festival highlight.
"This is a film for dog lovers, or any animal lovers out there, specifically for those interested in how service animals are selected and trained," Salazar said. "It will be quite fun — all four-legged companions are welcome to be registered and brought along to the screening."
The film will play on April 7 at Victoria Theater on 16th Street between Mission and Capp streets.
The festival is widely available to audience members across the city with 11 different venues showcasing films, including the Castro Theater, San Francisco Museum of Modern Art and Walt Disney Family Museum in the Presidio.
"The footprint of the festival, the feeling, flavor and breath occupies the city," Cowan said. "We have a lot of pride in the festival we have assembled and a lot of excitement in sharing it."
The festival will take place from April 4-17. Tickets and student discounts are available for purchase online at sffilm.org.

INTRODUCING OUR SALES + EVENT COORDINATOR, BRITTANIE!
For those of you who don't know me, my name is Brittanie, and I am the Sales + Event Coordinator here at The (amazing) Lighthouse at Glen Cove Marina. I, along with the lovely Marie Masa, am one of the coordinator's that you may have e-mailed, called, or even seen running around the property on event days! How did I end up here? Well, I like to think it's because of the "3 P's" (as I like to call them): passion, patience and persistence. Mix that with a background in design, plus a knack for organization and you might just say it was inevitable. But honestly I didn't realize this would be one of my life callings until recently.
I've always had a love for organization and planning. Whether it was a vacation, a birthday party, or something as simple as planning the day ahead… I was (and still am) so down for it! While in college for Fashion Design, I took part in a handful of fashion shows as a designer and eventually thought to myself, "I could totally plan my own fashion show!" I mean, why not mix two of my passions, right? Well around that time I found myself faced with the opportunity to do so when the Philippines was struck with a tragic typhoon. Being Filipina, I immediately wanted to help and found myself soon spearheading a group of friends and family who worked together to create Healing Our Roots - a fashion show fundraising event here in Vallejo that not only showcased my own designs and those of my talented friends, but ultimately brought the community together to raise awareness and monetary, food, and clothing donations to send to the Philippines as a sign of hope. The success of the event made me realize how I could make a positive impact in others' lives by doing what I loved. That was the start of it all. From that point, I helped planned yet another event raising funds for the Philippines when it was sadly struck by another typhoon a few years later, took part in multiple other fashion shows and design showcases, and slowly started helping plan family parties and events.
That's when I happened upon The Lighthouse's Instagram page, and what do you know? They had recently posted that they were looking for an intern! So obviously I jumped at the opportunity and sent my resume and cover letter over to Marie only to find out that the intern position had been filled. I thought, "ugh, it's not meant to be… oh well." Then Marie e-mailed again and mentioned that there was a part-time sales position opening and asked if I was interested – I was, but this time didn't work out because of conflicting schedules with my other job. I thought for sure that it just wasn't going to happen. Was I bummed? Absolutely. But that didn't stop me from giving up! Not long after that, I quit my job in fashion and life headed in a completely different direction - I wanted to become a yoga teacher! I had been practicing for a couple years before that, fell in love with the practice, and knew that I could totally share my love of yoga with the community. And it was during my yoga teacher training that my interest and love for events grew even stronger.
It must have been the Universe working it's magic because not long after I finished my training to become a yoga instructor (and just a few weeks after my best friend's wedding bliss subsided), I stumbled onto The Lighthouse website on a Thursday to find that they were concluding interviews for a new Sales + Event Coordinator position that week. I e-mailed Marie that night with my updated resume and cover letter, interviewed with her Friday, and got the job on Monday!


A structure can be inherited from another structure, in this case the parent must be defined inside the *.prop file before its child.
Unique name of the structure.
Unique name of the base structure from which this structure inherits.
A <value/> element defines an element of an array parameter.
<struct_name> - type of the property parameter that allows specifying a structure.
array - type of the property parameter that allows specifying an array of parameters, all having the same type (any of the above, including struct types previously defined), and accessed using a common name followed by an index: array.
String specifying the type of elements for an array parameter (see above).
This attribute is available only for array parameter types.
Here you can specify any of the types listed above, plus any name of a <struct/> element previously defined in the *.prop file.
Dimension of the array parameter (see above). This attribute is used to declare multi-dimensional arrays.
By default it is assumed that array_dim = 1, So, this attribute is optional for one-dimensional arrays.
Array parameter type enables you to declare a collection of parameters, all having the same type (specified via the array_type attribute), and accessed using a common name followed by an index: array.
You can declare multi-dimensional (specifying dimension via the array_type attribute), but be careful: the amount of memory needed for an array increases exponentially with each dimension. Arrays of structures are also supported.
To specify values of array elements when declaring an array, use the <value/> element.
It is not necessary to declare all array elements. You can specify values only for some of them via the index attribute of the <value/> element (can be useful for declaring overrides).
Below is an example of declaring a propery with a 2-dimensional array of float elements, named my_array2D, and specifying values for some of the elements.

The internet is a place for everybody where they can do a lot of activities. Just as in real-life you have to protect yourself. It can be compared to take an assurance for yourself and your own home. Making sure you're safe on the internet isn't as easy as some people might think. Most professional hackers are well aware of the latest tricks on the internet. But what about anonymity? How about my privacy when I'm protecting myself online? Does more protection means less privacy? The Internet Service Providers have a certain role in the protection online. When you're going completely anonymous online, are you safe? Read more about it below.
To keep your online activities safe, for example with an SSL-certificate, external companies need to know your identity. This means that if you wish to be protected online, your identity must be exposed. The external companies that are owners of the SSL-certificates need to know your identity to protect your connection with the website. This method gets used more often by bank transactions to keep the criminals away from your connection.
Don't leave your personal information somewhere without any reason.

Her marketing savvy, extensive community insight, friendly demeanor, tenacious yet graceful style, as well as a keen attention to client contentment, sustain her standing as the North Shore's consummate real estate professional.
Interest rates are low, employment is rising, home prices—in most markets—are still well below their peaks, and rents are on the upward climb. Buying a house is a highly individual decision—and a local one—but current trends are creating a favorable situation for many would-be North Shore Chicago homeowners.
Every family and each individual has various factors affecting the ability and the decision to buy a home. See reasons below that help support why it might make sense to buy a house, right now.
Mortgage interest rates are still low—for now. A 30-year-fixed-rate loan now averages 4.16%, according to Freddie Mac, but many economists believe we will see 5% rates next year. As interest rates increase, so do your monthly payments.
The median price of an existing home was 4.3% higher than June 2013. That's the 28th consecutive month of year-over-year price gains, and economists expect that trend to continue. However, we are still at least 20% off the peak prices of 2006. Bottom line, home prices are on the rise.
**Important Tip to Remember: You might get lucky one or two times, but overall, timing the market does not work. It all points to purchasing power, and that's a reflection of price and interest rates, which will both be higher in the future….No time like the present. More information HERE.
Experience, grace, tenacity, top-tier performer, high-ranking results, client focused, trusted resource, 25+ years of Chicago-North Shore community insight, marketing savvy, technology savvy…A few words and phrases to describe real estate professional Gloria Matlin.

It was cold, but things are still warming up…Chicago North Shore real estate inventory levels in January dipped 7.5 percent compared to last year, but median home prices climbed 9.6 percent over previous-year levels, according to recent market action reporting from the Illinois Association of REALTORS®.
The monthly average commitment rate for a 30-year, fixed-rate mortgage for the North Central-North Shore region was 4.46 percent in January 2014, down from 4.48 percent in December, according to the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corp. In January 2013 it averaged 3.40 percent.
Thirty (30) of 102 counties in Illinois showed annual home sales increases in the month of January 2014. Forty-three (43) counties showed year-over-year median price increases including Northern Shore Cook, up 19.4 percent. Chicago North Shore investor opportunities and first-time homebuyers are still finding attractive deals in a market that we might not see again for many years.
Sales and price information is generated by Multiple Listing Service closed sales reported by 30 participating Illinois REALTOR® local boards and associations including Midwest Real Estate Data LLC data as of Feb. 7, 2014 for the period Jan. 1 through Jan. 31, 2014 and will continue into March of 2014.. The Chicago PMSA, as defined by the U.S. Census Bureau, includes the counties of Cook, DeKalb, DuPage, Grundy, Kane, Kendall, Lake, McHenry and Will.

We took our most-loved cherry loaf and turned it into a delicious chocolate covered cherry bread! With chocolate chips inside and a smooth chocolate ganache on top, this easy bread recipe is a chocolate cherry lover's dream.
It was over 4 years ago when we first published our popular cherry bread. It went viral on Facebook about 3 years ago and has been one of our most popular recipes ever since.
The fun thing about videos going viral on Facebook is that readers give their suggestions on what they would change about the bread or what they would like to see. You can bet that with that pink cherry bread, people wanted to add CHOCOLATE. And this is why I love you all!
My husband loves chocolate covered cherries, so he was on board with making a chocolatey quick bread. This is the result and I hope you all love it!
Then pour the dry ingredients into the wet and mix well, but only until the ingredients are just combined. It's important to not overmix quick bread so that the bread stays soft.
Prepare the maraschino cherries by draining them well. Discard the cherry juice. Place the cherries in a food processor and pulse them a few times to chop the cherries.
Fold the cherries and the chocolate into the quick bread batter.
Grease and flour a bread loaf pan, then pour the batter in.
How do you know when quick bread is done?
The center of the bread should be slightly puffy and might have a crack on top. Use a toothpick to test the center of the bread to make sure it is done. Don't open the oven until the bread "looks" done (turn on the light to take a peek). If you open the oven before the bread is done, it may cause the bread to fall in the center.
Heat the heavy cream in the microwave until it is very hot and steaming, but not boiling.
Place the chocolate chips in a small glass bowl.
Cover the bowl with a plate and allow the bowl to sit for 3-4 minutes.
Remove the plate and stir the chocolate and cream together. This will take maybe 2 minutes of stirring to get it completely combined, but eventually you'll get a smooth, dark, silky chocolate.
The ganache will firm up as it sits, so you'll want to let it cool for at least 10 minutes before spreading it on the bread. Otherwise it will all fall off.
How do you store quick bread?
This bread stores well at room temperature for 2-3 days. Make sure the bread is an an airtight container.
Yes! This bread freezes well, even with the chocolate ganache. Be sure to wrap it well once the chocolate has set completely. Allow it to defrost completely before unwrapping it so that the bread retains its moisture.
Drain the maraschino cherries and discard juice. Coarsely chop the cherries in a food processor or with a knife. Gently fold the cherries and the mini chocolate chips into the batter.
Pour the bread batter into a greased 9"x5" bread pan. Bake at 350 degrees for 50-55 minutes. A toothpick inserted in the center of the bread should come out clean.
To make the ganache, heat the heavy cream until it is very hot, but not boiling.
Place the chocolate chips in a small mixing bowl and pour the heavy cream over the chocolate. Put a plate over the bowl to lock in the heat. Allow this to sit for 3-4 minutes to allow the chocolate to melt.
Stir or whisk the ganache until all of the chocolate is melted and it is completely smooth.
Allow the ganache to sit for 10 minutes so that it firms up slightly. If you pour it on the bread right away it might all run off.
Once the bread is cool, spread the ganache on top of the bread.
Slice and serve. Freezes well!
It looks delicious! What a perfect bread for February.

Be Swift Messengers, Examples of Unity
Elder Nelson speaks about the need to demonstrate and teach the principle of unity.
We should become "swift messengers" in order to share the gospel with the world, Elder Russell M. Nelson of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles told missionaries at a devotional at the Missionary Training Center in Provo, Utah. New missionary training center presidents and their wives and new visitors' center directors and their wives also attended the devotional.
Elder Jeffrey R. Holland of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles, speaking during a seminar for the training center presidents and visitors' center directors at the Joseph Smith Memorial Building in Salt Lake City, Utah, stressed that in missionary work we should demonstrate and teach the principle of unity, as exemplified by the Godhead.
Be an Ensign to the Nations
In unifying ourselves, Elder Nelson said, we can bring others to the knowledge of the truth. "Missionaries are the connecting link between God and millions of His children, most of whom populate the earth without the slightest knowledge of their identity and purpose. Missionaries invite these uninformed souls to come unto Christ."
Elder Nelson urged missionaries to be an "ensign to the nations" and to never cease to assist in the gathering of Israel. Referring to the call to action in Isaiah 18, he said, "It's not a coincidence that we have [a statue of] a man with a trumpet on top of the temple. And you are the trumpeters. You're the swift messengers. Keep your running shoes on."
Become Swift Messengers
"Think of that sometime when you are wondering where to go next," Elder Nelson said. "You are the fishers the Lord raised up for this day and age. You are the hunters to find these people who are to be brought back to the Lord."
In order to become swift messengers, he said, we must preach the doctrines of the Atonement, which allow for the purposes and prophecies of God to come to pass.
"Some 600 years before Jesus was born in Bethlehem, the prophets knew the Abrahamic covenant would be fulfilled 'in the latter days,'" Elder Nelson says. "And we get to participate! Isn't that exciting? We get to participate in this fulfillment of prophecies made some 4,000 years ago.
"The hope in my heart is that you will each study the doctrine personally, especially as it relates to your own identity and focus as a missionary at this unique time in the history of the world."
Glorify the Godhead
Elder Holland describes the Godhead as being one in spirit and in purpose.
Although the Father, the Son, and the Holy Ghost are three physically separate beings, "They are united—They are 'one'—in every other conceivable way," Elder Jeffrey R. Holland of the Quorum of the Twelve said. "The longer I study, and the more I learn, I find that there is much more that unites Them than separates Them."
The doctrine of the Godhead is at the heart of the gospel, Elder Holland said, noting that we need to understand the nature of the Godhead in order to teach nonmembers this important doctrine.
Elder Holland referred to the intercessory prayer in John 17 to show how Christ pleaded with Heavenly Father to help us become one in spirit and purpose, even after the manner of the Godhead.
Be One as They Are One
"The great theme of that prayer is unity," Elder Holland says. "We are to be one with our Father in Heaven and with Christ as They are one. Theirs is the ideal and is supposed to be the object of our efforts."
Although we are to be united, we each have distinct roles to fulfill, Elder Holland says, which is why we must be in the world but not of it. For example, "We have this great and powerful gift of the Holy Ghost that comes with baptism. No lesson can be more important for a missionary than to remember this personage of the Godhead with whom we can have a deeply personal relationship spiritually."
We should exemplify the unity of the Godhead, says Elder Holland. "We worship the Father and Him only; we serve the Father in the name of the Son. … Christ came to do the will of the Father in all things." Then, during mortality, the Holy Ghost guides us and fulfills His divine role.

Q: SNS published messages not reaching SQS I've a encrypted SQS queue and SNS topic by custom managed KMS key. Currently I'm using a similar kind of SQS policy stated in the below link where it is working fine SQS Policy
But if i use the below SQS policy it's not working. I don't want to have Principal as '*' due to security reasons. Can someone explain me why is this happening
    {
  "Version":"2012-10-17",
  "Statement":[
    {
      "Sid":"MySQSPolicy001",
      "Effect":"Allow",
      "Principal":{
    "AWS": "arn:aws:iam::123456789012:root"
  },
      "Action":"sqs:SendMessage",
      "Resource":"arn:aws:sqs:us-east-1:123456789012:MyQueue"
    }
  ]
}

A: So if you've a condition with SNS arn in your queue policy when more than one topic needs to publish to same queue you might need to add the ARN again & again.
So the workaround will be the below policy.
{
  "Version": "2012-10-17",
  "Statement": [
    {
      "Sid": "Queue1_SendMessage",
      "Effect": "Allow",

      },
      "Action": [
        "sqs:SendMessage",
        "sqs:ReceiveMessage",
        "sqs:DeleteMessage"
      ],
      "Resource": "arn:aws:sqs:eu-central-1:1234567890:test-queue",

This past week, Heiko Holz, Research Associate and PhD candidate at the TIME Research Area Department for Service and Technology Marketing headed by Prof. Dr. Stefanie Paluch attended the 9th International Research Symposium for Service Management in Ljubljana, Slovenia.
This year's conference and PhD symposium focused on research questions facing the keynote of "Service Imperatives in the New Economy: Towards convergence of functional and experiential services." The first day of the four-day-conference was dedicated to a number of seminars and workshops in which well-known researchers from the field of service research shared their experience in academia as well as advice and insights on scientific practice with PhD-level participants. Together with senior researchers like Prof. Chriss Voss (Warwick University, UK), Prof. Joan Ball (St.John's University, NY, USA) or Prof. Jay Kandampully (Ohio State, USA), the young scholar dealt with questions and methods facing research organization, initiation of cooperations and partnerships or the scientific wrtiting process. Lectures and exercises on methodology and the scientific process were successfully combined with interactive discussions on individual questions of the participants. The following three days were characterized by panel discussion on scientifically relevant questions and individual presentations to be held by all attendees of the conference. The attendees were able to present their own research, successfully completed or still work in prgress, receive feedback and set the start for potential cross-border collaborations with interested colleagues. In this context Heiko was able to give a presentation on his current research project in progress dealing with "The value of application-based service experience: Extending the scope of customer experience research." With his interest in customer experience research he was at the heart of this year's conference's orientation towards the convergence of functional and experiential services. In addition to a focus on presentations and discussions, some time was of course dedicated to foster personal bonding and interdisciplinary dialogue among the scholars coming from different areas of service research.

residency programs for foreign medical graduates
Categorical programs are considered more traditional and hospital-based. A Guide for International Medical Graduate Physicians. Preliminary programs are 1-year programs for those wishing to specialize and who need a year of internal medicine training. Questions about obtaining a visa should be directed to your residency program staff, the U.S. embassy or consulate in your country of residence, or the U.S. Because offers made and accepted during Match Week will be binding under the Match Participation Agreement, only applicants eligible to begin training on July 1 in the year of the Match will be allowed to participate. The first part of the certification process starts when you apply to ECFMG for a USMLE/ECFMG identification number. These are 3-year programs that may allow residents to train up to board eligibility if performance is satisfactory. Some states, such as California, have a list of recognized international medical schools that are eligible for licensure in the state. Applicants must register with the National Resident Matching Program (NRMP), which matches applicants and hospital residency programs according to individual preferences. The ECFMG coordinates the ERAS application process for IMGs. Being an international medical graduate (IMG) may pose unique challenges during the residency search. It was founded in 1956 to assess whether IMGs are ready to enter ACGME-accredited residency programs in the United States. Just download the app and visit the "For Students" section. There are 4 tracks within an internal medicine residency program: transitional, preliminary, categorical and primary care. Find more information on how to apply for residency programs in the AMA Career Planning Resource. Learn with the AMA how a skin manifestation of SARS-CoV-2 infection sheds light on racial and ethnic disparities in dermatologic care.

International Medical Graduates (earlier used Foreign Medical Graduates) work for years on completing their residency application to become eligible to participate in the NRMP Residency Match. Read the details of the proceedings of the 2November 2020 Special Meeting of the House of Delegates. Many residencies list their program requirements for applicants on their websites, such as medical school graduation year, types of visas accepted, or number of allowed attempts on the USMLE. The AMA is leading the fight against the COVID-19 pandemic. It is strongly encouraged that international medical graduates participate in an observership rotation in a clinical setting before applying to a residency program. The AAFP app makes it easy to organize your residency search. IMGs should schedule this examination no later than March of the year in which they need to take it.

Is it possible that there is a bug in the FileDragAndDropTarget or related code on scaled windows systems?
I have now a test system with Win 10 and a 5K monitor so windows "UI-scale" is set to 200%.
When I drag a file on to my juce app (or the Juce Demo) the coordinates interpreted by Juce seems to be off.
So the position of the mouse and where the app "thinks" you drag don't match.
Probably fine on OSX with all the retina systems, but it should be a matter of scaling up windows and drag a file to confirm this bug.
Yes, it's entirely possible that there could be an edge-case there!
Yes, this is an edge-case, but I would guess the user base is growing.
It can be reproduced by dragging files to a TreeView, for instance the ValueTree / XML demo in the Juce Demo.
Notice that the cursor changes to allow a drag operation, and that the scrolling of the TreeView changes when you drag up down. But it reacts when the mouse cursor is in the wrong place.
Is this something you will be looking in to in foresable future, or should we put some effort in to it our self?
Moved the owner.globalToLocal function to before the unscaledScreenPosToScaled, don't ask me why.
Bump. Found same issue here on Windows 10, when system scale is not 100%. The file mouse drop region is also kind of "scaled". Using juce 4.2.4.
Is this fixed in the latest JUCE 5? I've just spent two hours working with a JUCE v4 project to discover i've got a negative coordinate when dragging files from the file system to the UI on a 4k monitor.
Ah - ok - maybe it is. Found the relevant line … it's all changed a bit dramatically there actually.

Review: THEATRHYTHM Final Fantasy – Nintendo 3DS
On July 7, 2012 September 10, 2012 By RicoIn 3DS, 3DS, Games, Reviews
by Ricardo Ferreira
Theatrhythm is an exceptional celebration of all things Final Fantasy.
I picked up Theatrhythm on a whim and was pleasantly surprised by an amazing little game that totally surpassed my expectations. If you don't like rhythm games move along there's nothing to see here. However if you've enjoyed titles like Elite Beat Agents or even Rock Band there is alot to enjoy here. The icing on the cake though is the amazing Final Fantasy music taken from all the titles over the storied history of the franchise. Theatrhythm is a simple yet quickly to get complex Rhythm action game that mainly consists of tapping and dragging the stylus accross the 3DS screen to some of the Greatest Final Fantasy tunes. There are plenty of gamplay modes that are enriched with simple RPG elements from forming a party using lead characters from the various Final Fantasy titles and even a leveling up mechanic. The game consists of 3 modes, Series, Challenge and Chaos Shrine which include their own challenges and tons of unlockables which add to the extreme replayability of this title. Theatrhythm even has a multiplayer mode where you and up-to 3 other players can join forces to take down enemies, unfortunately I haven't had the chance to try this mode out for myself. All in all Theatrhythm is a great game that came out of nowhere to pleasantly surprise me with its addicting gameplay and music.
Must buy for Final Fantasy Fans or just Rhythm game fans in general
