Frank Gouldsmith Speck (1881-1950) was born in Brooklyn, New York, but raised in Mohegan, Connecticut. He is none other than the sin-substitute, the Savior and the hope of mankind. Jesus did for us what we could never do for ourselves. He offers the Grace Plan, not the Human Performance Plan. He didn’t come to start a religion but to build a relationship. The porous substrates were fabricated by phase inversion method. Membrane preparation PES solutions, concentration varied from 15 wt to 20 wt, were prepared in DMAc at room temperature. Finally, the SPEEK was completely dried in an oven at 60 ☌. His scandalous message is that the Shalom of God is available to every human being through him. The SPEEK was collected by mesh and flushed with deionized water. In fact he was the enemy of dead religion. Jesus didn’t play by the rules… that is religious rules. Oh how he could tick off powerful people and the respectable folks always seemed threatened by him. He blew people away by saying that tax collectors and prostitutes are entering the Kingdom of Heaven ahead of the religious leaders. Jesus had the nerve to hang out with the wrong crowd and sketchy people…the lost, the lame, the irreligious and misfits flocked to him. Love him or hate him… the truth is you can never be the same after an encounter with Jesus. He built bridges rather than throw rocks. He prayed more than he talked about praying. He read God’s book more than the newspaper. He didn’t get all bent out of shape every election cycle. Jesus befuddled everyone in not fighting but giving up his life. We will get these Jews marching and cause them as they have already covered the distance from Jerusalem to Poland to move eastward a few thousand kilometers. His only weapons were a serving towel, a blood stained cross, an empty tomb, a bunch of scars and a handful of insignificant ragamuffins who didn’t start out too hot but ended up out-praying, out-thinking, out-serving and out-living everyone and turned the world upside down. Normally at odds with each other, these powers conspired to literally take Jesus out. Jesus stepped into a world with a rigid religious establishment, a pagan empire and political parties of all stripes. The Romans didn’t consider him significant enough to record his execution in their records. He was born some 20 centuries ago to an impoverished couple in an obscure part of the planet. If Jesus was ordinary, plain and unimpressive in his physical appearance.why did big burly fisherman leave their nets and follow him and business sharks in the marketplace leave their cash registers to follow him? Great Question.ĭorothy Sayers has said, “We have very efficiently pared the claws of the Lion of Judah, certified Him “meek and mild,” and recommended Him as a fitting household pet for pale curates and pious old ladies.” But what if Jesus can’t be put in a box…tamed…or domesticated? When it comes to the real Jesus … no one is more surprising, baffling, rattling, frustrating, astonishing and compelling. Oh and, by the way, it will also put both companies out of business he said.A lawyer asked me this basic question. “You’re going to have your own like YouTube channel, only that’s your Twitter handle,” he’s said. Lindell, the, let us say, creatively minded political theorist, who was banned from Twitter earlier this year for his persistent lies about how Trump actually won the 2020 election, met with the former president in January apparently urging him to consider martial law to defend that claim, and has recently said he’s hired private investigators to look into why Fox News won’t book him any more, has framed the social media venture as a mix between Twitter and YouTube. In an attempt to differentiate itself from other “anything goes” conservative-leaning social networking platforms, Lindell, a Christian, has laid out the type of speech his users will not be able to freely use, including profanity, sexual content, and blasphemous language. “You don’t get to use the four swear words: the c-word, the n-word, the f-word, or God’s name in vain,” Lindell explained in a video on the Frank landing page. ![]()
