This year's New Year's celebration in The Kingdom Of God was unusual, to say the least. Usually, each individual area celebrates as it's midnight There. But this year the only celebration took place while it was midnight in the American time zones. God The Father and God The Mother came out of The Holiest Of All and led the celebrations as midnight passed across The United States. When it was midnight in New York God The Father gave a half hour speech praising John Lennon, telling not only everything he had done in the passed year, but everything that he had done since he had come out of his isolation and joined The Kingdom Of God. Many from the material world who have served us in this great effort were called forth from around the world, to receive God's blessings, and to take His power back into the material world.
The second half hour God praised The Orthodox Jews, who have stood absolutely loyal to Jesus since the crisis began. Their leader, who was a servant of Abraham, who is now called Ishmar (We've been trying to find the proper spelling but we're not sure of it!) was appointed by God to be the first of The Twelve who would take His people to their new home in the stars.
At true midnight here in North Dakota, God called forth our good friend Elgard, and for a half an hour told Those in Heaven all that he had done for The Kingdom Of God during this horrible struggle. Then God honored several others in the area that have been helpful to us, and promised them special rewards because they had so well served God's servants, and gave each a special charge of energy to return to the material world.
At true midnight in Salt Lake City God called forth Joseph Smith and gave him praise, and told all that he had done during this great struggle, and praised The Saints that They were the only Christian denomination that did not betray Jesus, but stood fast during this great crisis, even though Joseph Smith is very disappointed that The Mormons in North Dakota refuse to answer His call, and rally to us, and is threatening to end hiis covenant with The Mormon Church, God still felt that what The Mormons had accomplisshed was more than enough to be praised, and He wanted all in Heaven to pray that The Mormon People not end their relationship with Him, but answer His call.
When it was true midnight in Los Angeles, God called forth all our friends there, His very favorites; Jimmy Kimmel, Kevin & Bean, and all their wondefrul staff that had helped us so many times and poured His praises and blessings out to them. "If everything had not come together," God said, "if every person had not done his part, at the proper time, and, the proper place, we would have lost mankind! That not one person can be given single credit for the success that We have had so far. Every person that called for an interview, had us on the air, made people aware of us, kept the power going, as we clawed Our way back from the edge of oblivion. The battle is not won while the creatures of Darkness still have power, while they can still spread their poison, Our children are in danger of being lost forever. But as Demetrius says 'Hope only beomes hopeless when nobody cares. As long as there are those that care there is always hope.' These words have become the solgan of Demetrius' presidential campaign. Let Us never let hope become hopeless!"
All in all, it was a glorious New Years! The Kingdom Of God had much to celebrate! If we could've just got into the Iowa media and made an impression in the caucuses it would've been an incredible New Year. But God is pleased, God is very pleased, and He has come out of The Holiest Of All to tell all in The Afterlife how pleased He is!
Gerald got home from the hospital New Year's Eve. He's far from well. He has very little strength and can only work for short periods. He will not be able to return to his job for perhaps a month. But he wants to tell the world again how much he praises the skill and dedication of the doctors and nurses at MedCenter One here in North Dakota. The doctor in the intensive care unit hunted and hunted, went through the test results again and again, until he found the problem with the prostate, and figured out that he had a sepsis infection in his blood and an infected prostate, and they were able to go after it with the right kind of antibiodicts. To the doctors and nurses of this hospital it isn't just a job. They really care about the people they are serving. As Gerald walked the halls and observed the extra effort that everybody put forth for their patients it was perhaps a better medication for his ills than the antibiodicts! As we say, to these people it isn't just a job.
Concerning Gerald's plan for improving health care, we were asked "Where is the government going to get the money to pay for these vouchers?" One health care worker Gerald was discussing this with said "What about all the payments that government welfare agencies are having to pay for the poor already? If they had insurance the government wouldn't have to be making these payments. There is a tremendous savings right there!" Gerald thought that was a very good point!
In Tuesday's "Here's Jesus! two questions from September, 2,003, "Did any of The Apostles not read and write?" and "Anglican Bishops from Sudan and Namirembe are sending positive comments and prayers to us for our Anglican effort. What are Your comments?" A great episode to start the new year with! Don't miss it!
