Matthew 5

Oaths

33 “Again you have heard that it was said to those of old, ‘You shall not swear falsely, but shall perform to the Lord what you have sworn.’ 34 But I say to you, Do not take an oath at all, either by heaven, for it is the throne of God,35 or by the earth, for it is his footstool, or by Jerusalem, for it is the city of the great King. 36 And do not take an oath by your head, for you cannot make one hair white or black. 37 Let what you say be simply ‘Yes’ or ‘No’; anything more than this comes from evil.[g]

Retaliation

38 “You have heard that it was said, ‘An eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth.’ 39 But I say to you, Do not resist the one who is evil. But if anyone slaps you on the right cheek, turn to him the other also. 40 And if anyone would sue you and take your tunic,[h] let him have your cloak as well. 41 And if anyone forces you to go one mile, go with him two miles. 42 Give to the one who begs from you, and do not refuse the one who would borrow from you.

CONDOM SENSE

Safe sex is fundamental. Researchers say that  nearly 20 million STI's are being discovered every year (2012).

"Researchers also found that there are 110,197,000 cases of STIs in total in the United States right now, including those occurring in people who newly contracted an infection and those who have been living with an infection. Young people between ages 15 and 24 make up more than 20 percent of the overall cases of both new and established infections."

Shocking is one word to describe this data. One preventative method? Where a condom! This article is called condom sense. Fornication is definitely an act frowned upon by our heavenly father but since he gave his only son for our frivilous sins do your spirit the favor and purchase contraception. I am very familiar with the risk & reward ideology but visualize the burning sensation you may endure if a trial goes south. Be safe.

The word of the LORD came to me: 2 “Son of man,say to the ruler of Tyre, ‘This is what the Sovereign LORD says:

“‘In the pride of your heart you say, “I am a god; I sit on the throne of a god in the heart of the seas.” But you are a mere mortal and not a god, though you think you are as wise as a god. Are you wiser than Daniel [a] ? 3 Is no secret hidden from you? By your wisdom and understanding 4 you have gained wealth for yourself and amassed gold and silver in your treasuries. By your great skill in trading 5 you have increased your wealth, and because of your wealth your heart has grown proud.

6 “‘Therefore this is what the Sovereign LORD says:

“‘Because you think you are wise, as wise as a god, I am going to bring foreigners against you, 7 the most ruthless of nations; they will draw their swords against your beauty and wisdom and pierce your shining splendor. They will bring you down to the pit, 8 and you will die a violent death in the heart of the seas. Will you then say, “I am a god,” 9 in the presence of those who kill you? You will be but a mortal, not a god, in the hands of those who slay you. You will die the death of the uncircumcised 10 at the hands of foreigners.

I have spoken, declares the Sovereign LORD.’”

TWELFTH DIMENSION CLOTHING

Established in 2010, Twelfth Dimension is not an lifestyle but more like a state of mind clothing brand.It represents the child like creativity and higher levels of consciousness that gets stripped from us by societies norms and social standards. The primary focus of the brand has been to present quality garments that brings the universal balance of both style and consciousness together.

LUKE 12

4 “I tell you, my friends, do not be afraid of those who kill the body and after that can do no more. 5 But I will show you whom you should fear: Fear him who, after your body has been killed, has authority to throw you into hell. Yes, I tell you, fear him. 6 Are not five sparrows sold for two pennies? Yet not one of them is forgotten by God. 7 Indeed, the very hairs of your head are all numbered.

NFL PRE-SEASON (Review)*

So the NFL Preseason began last weekend with the hall of fame game. This week several eye-popping games took place. Ravens Super Bowl MVP Quarterback Joe Flacco made an impressive performance in his debut versus Tampa Bay completeing 7 of 8 pass attempts and throwing just one interception. The Patriots took on the Philidelphia Eagles. The Pats offense seems all but rattled by the absence of Hernandez & Welker. They were able to score 31 points in  their win Friday night.

This season will yet again be a thriller. New faces on new rosters and the return of offensive mastermind Sean Payton. Sports analyst nationwide predict this to be a comeback season for the New Orleans Saints. This will be no easy task. The Atlanta Falcons are stacked with offensive power and will have an improved pass rush with the signing of 2-time Super Bowl champion  Osi Umenyiora .

I am very interested to see how this season unfolds. As Of right now I still predict a Seattle Seahawks apperance in Super XLVIII. Soon we'll see.

NFL Controversy : Riley Cooper

A controversial story has been circulating sports news worldwide. NFL Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver Riley Cooper was caught on video using the derogatory word "Nigga."

This story has brought much spotlight and distraction to the already struggling Eagles organization who finished last season 4th in the NFC East. Cooper has since apologized for the slur but worldwide criticism has yet to subside.
