HCQ the cure that is ignored for greed and power. The Zelenko Protocol for its use.

Finally getting some informatoin about Dr. Zelenko, the first name i'd heard as having had great success treating COVID with HCQ.  Way back at the beginning, early March I think.  But I didn't get to know anything about him until recently.   Here's a really good interview with him.  

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MhLD1P5nH30&feature=youtu.be

Then there is a long paper titled The Zelenko Protocol which links to lists of documents by Zelenko and others on the use of hydrxychloroquine with COVID patients, and where at the top of the page you are directed to click on a link to find out his recommended treatment for COVID for high-risk, and low-risk patients and another link that tells you his recommended treatment for preventing COVID, which includes using Quercetin< Zinc and Vitamin C for low-risk people.. This alternative combination is also recommended to be used in larger doses for high-risk patients when HCQ is not available.

Zelenko Covid-19 Prophylaxis Protocol Twitter: @zev_dr 
Prophylaxis is an action taken to prevent or protect against a specified disease. Greek in origin, from the word "phylax", meaning "to guard" and "watching."

 Low Risk Patients 

Young healthy people do not need prophylaxis against Covid 19. In young and healthy people, this infection causes mild cold-like symptoms. It is advantageous for these patients to be exposed to Covid19, build up their antibodies and have their immune system clear the virus. This will facilitate the development of herd immunity and help prevent future Covid-19 pandemics.  However, if these patients desire prophylaxis against Covid-19, then they should take the protocol noted below. 

Moderate Risk Patients 

Patients from this category are healthy but have high viral-load exposure. This group includes medical personnel, caregivers of high-risk patients, people who use public transportation or may otherwise be exposed, first responders and other essential personnel who are crucial to the continued functioning of society. These patients should be encouraged to take prophylaxis against Covid-19 in accordance with the protocol noted below. 

High Risk Patients 

Patients are considered high risk if they are over the age of 60, or if they are younger than 60 but they have comorbidities, that is, they have other health conditions that put them at risk. These patients have between a 5 to 10% mortality rate if they are infected with Covid-19. These patients should be strongly encouraged to take prophylaxis against Covid-19 in accordance with the protocol noted below. 

Protocol for Low and Moderate Risk Patients: 

Elemental Zinc 25mg one a day1 Vitamin C 1000mg once a day2 Quercetin 500mg (OTC) once a day 

If Quercetin is unavailable, then use Epigallocatechin-gallate (EGCG) 400mg (OTC) once a day 3 Protocol for High Risk Patients: Elemental Zinc 25mg one a day Hydroxychloroquine (HCQ4 ) 200mg once a day for 5 days, then once a week If HCQ is unavailable then use Low and Moderate risk protocol.

 The treatment protocol once a person actually has COVID is at a separate link. Mostly a higher dose of the same things with additional treatments as needed. https://faculty.utrgv.edu/eleftherios.gkioulekas/zelenko/Zelenko-memo-August-protocol.pdf

So frustrating to know about this treatment that could have been savintg lives all along and have no way to do anything with the information.  It's nice to know there are doctors out there who use it and are in a position to do someting, and yet they can't get a hearing either.  Even Zelenko says he is often unable to to get hold of HCQ. 

Every time I hear the news reports on new cases of COVID and the death count going up I want to run screaming in the streets about the homicidal political corruption going on.  It's going to continue to be the case that a minuscule percentage of cases will actually die but NOBODY should have to die.  

Why isn't there a big uprising about THIS?  Mobs are destroying parts of cities for a big fat lie but nobody is demonstrating against the suppression of a drug that could save people.

Lately I have the feeling I am dying.  Just don't feel well.  Had it before though and didn't die.  Maybe just depressed.  Won't know until I know.  I like this particular health guru, Dr. Joel Fuhrman, who has a very radical approach to diet for preventing disease that is hard to follow but convincingly based on studies so that I wish I had the energy to follow it.  Or the money to spend a few weeks at his retreat facility.  But neither is really possible right now and I wouldn't really mind dying.  Not too happy about the idea of pain of course, and I really don't want to die of COVID so I'm going to do my best to avoid that with the zinc-quercetin combo since HCQ isn't available that I know of.  In a way I'd be very happy to die now.   I'm unable to do anything about the problems I write about here, might as well go where I'll be a lot happier.

A Ramble about the Election.

So this is what we deserve as a nation.  This is what God wants.   I took it all quite calmly, which surprised me, or maybe it was more like receiving a blow to the head that deprived me of all feeling.  I don't know.  But all it took to lose the calm was getting a messge from a liberal friend with whom I'd never discussed politics at all, just knowing it would be a disaster in this case.  And she probably had the same instinct, until now when she must have thought the messabge was so sweet that it couldn't upset anyone.  I don't know how to explain it otherwise anyway.  This was an email she got from the owner of a buienss that sells cooking supplies.  I'll edit it for length.

With all that needs to be done to overcome the cruelty that has taken over the Republican Party, and the damage that cruelty has done to America, Election Day 11.3.20 was never going to be a finish linebut simply more of a starting gate.  Still, there’s no need to rush right through that gate….  Take some time to unravel it from your life, and I don’t know, maybe eat a salad or two.

The truth is this president has never been the real cause of what has gone wrong, but merely more of a symptom.   There’s a big effort ahead of us to really uproot the issues our country faces….  Soon enough we will all have to be back at it reaching out to a larger world with empathy, hope and kindness as best we can. … Thanks for having the kindness to cook.  You make goodness possible.

Totally blew my cool.  The self-righteousness, the sanctimoniousness, the ...the... imbecility!  The absolute lack of critical perspective on his opinion, both enrage and astonish me.  Does this guy think all his customers are liberals?  ARE all his customers liberals?  Has he any clue at all that he's accusing over 70 million conservatives of heinous behavior?  I hope he doesn't.  I hope he's just uncritically lost in his own closed box of assumptions and has no contact with the real world, because otherwise he's he's engaging in a politically divisive act I can only see as truly genuinely certifiably insane, accusing Trump supporters of cruelty or of supporting a cruel agenda.  . 

But this is typical of liberals rthese days, so why am I so astonished?  They say outrageous things about Trump and his supporters seemingly without the slightest concern about offending anyone.  Or not caring if they do, having gone beyond any sense of their opponents as human beings into the kind of mentality that dehumanizes the opposition.  We're just  "deplorables" after all and Trump is Evil Incarnate.   

What's evil in all this is how Trump and his supporters have been treated for the last four years, the lies and slanders, and the political ideology they emanate from, that hates America and seeks to destroy it and replace it with Communism.    We wonder whatever happened to treating your opponent with basic respect.  What happened to the time-honored peaceful transition between Presidential administrations and the grace given a new President for his first hundred days?  That one went out the window when Trump came into office.  Whatever happened to civil discourse?  I have not found it possible to discuss politics with any liberal friend,  one or the other of us has an emotional meltdown before we get very far.   There have been some sincere efforts to make it possible but without success.    Of course I see it as the fault of the Left more than the Right, far more:  the liberal agenda is being called from behind the scenes by powerful people who WANT to create chaos, although the average liberal may think he shares in a reasonable perspective on the world as if nothing had changed since decades ago.  For this idea to stand, however, he has to be deprived of facts that contradict the narrative put out by the main media, and of course the leftist media see to it he continues to be so deprived..   

So they think the daily rioting in Portland isn't rioting, it's all peaceful protests, because that's what the media tell them.  So they think BLM is a civil rights organization based on injustices to black people by the police.  No clue that it's really part of the Marxist agenda that goes back to the sixties which gave it a huge kickstart although it had been brewing for decades before that.   Since the opposition is defined by the Marxist agenda as "oppressors," and bogus history rewrites are used to justify the bogus claim, they don't know they are accepting a planned denigration of the opposition similar to what the Nazis did to the Jews, or the Catholic radio propagandist in Rwanda did to the Tutsis by calling them "cockroaches" to stir up the Hutus against them.  No, this isn't evolved tribalism, this ispropaganda-manipulated mayhem.  They think if you call Trump Hitler that's because he really is an evil fascist like Hitler, though it's all made up to demonize the opposition and justify any kind of unjust action against them they want.  Lying words have been the chosen weapon against Trump  and his supporters too, and since there is a pretty complete blackout of any opposing point of view it's succeeded oh so well at actually convincing liberals of the lie.  They are sincerely convinced..

Another liberal friend sent me a link to another extremely offensive opinion piece from before the election, about how the only "decent" vote would be for Biden:      https://www.cnn.com/2020/11/02/opinions/biden-only-decent-choice-2020-election-soifer/index.html.   I may have to come back and quote some of that here later. 

Now I hear about an organization that treats "the Trump Agenda" as if it were Nazism itself and calls for punishing those who supported it.   Something Trump Accountability.  Right, punish your political opponents for disagreeing with you.  Great, you really want to unite all of us.   The Trump Agenda as understood by his supporters is a pro-America agenda like most conservative agendas though more focused and aggressive than the usual versions.  Bring back American prosperity and American goodness and undo decades of Marxist destruction.  But by redefining the Trump Agenda as something evil, such as separating children from their families at the border or keeping them in cages, they can justify all sorts of enormities against Trump supporters, even to dragging ordinary Americans out of their cars and beating them nearly to death, just on the basis of lying propaganda.

If Cooks-supplierMan, quoted above, had any sense of reality, he couldn't so blithely condemn 71 million Americans as he does.  That's the main clue that he's thinking ideologically and irrationally.  Unfortunately most liberals think the same way.  Too many people think this political dividie reflects two more or less equal sides in a difference of opinion, having no clue that the Left id ideologically driven by hidden forces bent on destroying America.  The devil has done his work well.  He controls the vast majority of the sources of information that might disabuse the ordinary liberal of this great folly, the mainstream media, the social media, the universities, the entertainment industry.  

What is the "cruelty" that man has in mind?  You'd think by now I could get inside the liberal mindset well eough to rattle it off, but I can't.  "Keeping children in cages" on the border?   Because they have NO clue whatever that it was the Obama administration that initiated that system at the border that is being blamed on Trump.  And those are cages anyway, that's a chain-link fence cordoning off a large area.  What else?  The constant refrain of "racism?"  The Left is being driven by lies and if Biden-Harris really are elected we're going to be governed by lies.  Again.  All in the name of compassion and kindness and empathy and goodness.  It turns the stomach.

So I mentioned the Trump Accountability project or whatever it's called tht was brought up by Heather on the Dark Horse podcase, that wants to punish anyone who supported the Trump agenda.  Three items of the Trump Agenda as they see it were specified.  Separating children from their families at the border, promiting anti-semitism and racism, and killing people by COVID mismanagement.  Heather responded that the first two are false but thinks Trump does deserve the accusation about COVID.  She wasn't specific and I'm not sure what she had in mind.  The vacillation about masks?   

 Seems to me he acted very fast by shutting down travel with China back at the end of Februrary, and got called xcenophobic for it by Biden and the equivalent by Pelosi who made a big producting of going to a restraurant in San Francisco's Chinatown to underscore the accusation.  Then I remember Trump's energetic plan to get American businesses to retool for the production of needed medical supplies, and his quick action in builiding an alterantive hospitla in New York as well as sending a medically equipped ship.  Which Cuomo ignored while he sent sisck people to the nursing homes where they infected the elderly residents whose deaths then drove up the statistics in New York.  But that's Trump's fault?  What else?   Supporting hysdroxychloroquine?  Which is very clearly THE cure for COVID which the Left has so denigrated nobody tgrusts it.  The power of propaganda.  Not supporting the wearing of masks?  That might be a fault I'd agree with but on the other hand we were getting so many contradictory messages about masks I'm not sure any President would have known which side to be on.  Apparently they don't really work becauyse the virus easily passes through them although they stop large droplets that may also carry the virus.  I don't know, what else?  Considering the confusing that has reigned on this subject around the world why should Trump have been expected to know exactly what to do?  And then he wanted to open up the country because the lockdown has maybe ev3en more serious effects on people than the virus.  Is that what they are complaining aBout?  

So that came up on the Dark Horse podcast yesterday.   https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JZ5iWpoN89k&t=292s
As usual I like a lot of what the Dark Horse duo have to say, but certainly not all of it.   Bret really does think that Trump committed an abuse of power in asking the Ukrainian President to look into the allegations about Hunter Biden.  Why?  I'd guess because golly gee it just sort of SOUNDS like abuse of power to him.  And there wasn't much more than that behind the whole impeachment of Trump either, although Weinstein at  least does dee that there was a huge politically motivated conspiracy against Trump in all that.  However, all the conservative commentaries I heard said the request was well within Presdiental powers and even responsibility to uncover such a corruption if it existed.  Seems that a lot of the attacks on Trump are based on things just not feeling right to people utterly ignornant of politics at the Presdiental lefel.  Even the Ukrainian President defended Trump and Trump kept saying there was nothing wrong with that phone call but no matter, the ignorant know better.

And I have to mention that in another podcast a while back Weinstein explains some of his own ideological perspective when he says the American system is fantastically productive but its spoils are not fairly distributed.   "Spoils?"  Since when are the fruits of an individual's labor labor some kind of "spoils"  subject to "distribution" anyway?   Capitalism is fantastically productive in a free society, but by what law are those who do the producing obligated -- by the state -- to share it?  Obligated by God, yes, but Weinstein is talking about things on the human level as if he wants just what the Communists want, governmental control of the fruits of an individual's labor.  And besides, America's prosperity has always benefitted all Americans, what sort of "fair" distribution does he envision?   The usual leftist methods drive entrepreneurs out of the country where they can't benefit anyone else anyway.  And it turns out that Trump's reduction of taxes that strengthened businesses and increased employment actually brought more revenue into the government than before and that gets ignroed too.  Revenue for all the programs dear to the hearts of liberals.

He also seems to think there is SOME justification for the protests in this upposedly unfair system of distribution?  Some kind of justifiable frustration?   Even though the supposed basis for ti in racism turns out to be false?  

We know there was a lot of fraud in this election -- from the Left of course, surprise surprise.  Enough to change the outcome I don't know.  Maybe we'll never know.    Trump administration lawyer Sydney Powell yesterday described incidents that are being investigated:   https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g6swRH38oKs

Well, this is a fallen world, the Founders did what they could to take that fact into account with their checks and balances,  but a determined criminal mind can overcome it.  As John Adams said, our system was designed for a religious and moral people and is wholly inadequate for any other.  We're the "any other" now.  Come soon, Lord Jesus.

A Natural Food Supplement that Does What HCQ Does.

Hey COVID!  Your days are numbered.   Or they would be numbered if any of the people who are in a position to do something about the problem cared.

 It turns out that there are other chemicals besides HCQ that act as ionophores to zinc, meaning chemicals that open the "gate" as it were to let zinc into the cells of the body where it works to prevent a virus like COVID from replicating.  It had occurred to me that there must be other such chemicals since zinc has to get into our cells to do us any good for lots of reasons and HCQ isn't something we nornormally have on hand.  But it didn't occur to me to search for those other chemicals.

Then a friend discovered that there is a Quercetin-Zinc supplement that's used for allergies and immune system strengthening that works the same way Hydroxychloroquine works,.  There are reviews of such a supplement at Amazon that say so, but then I googled the question whether Quercetin is an ionophore,  and I got Pub Med saying YES, from six years ago yet:

Natural sources of zinc (Google search page):

Oysters contain more zinc per serving than any other food, but red meat and poultry provide the majority of zinc in the American diet. Other good food sources include beansnuts, certain types of seafood (such as crab and lobster), whole grains, fortified breakfast cereals, and dairy products [2,

Natural sources of Quercetin on Google search page: 

Quercetin is contained in abundance in apples, honey, raspberries, onions, red grapescherriescitrus fruits, and green leafy vegetables [2]. Among vegetables and fruits, quercetin content is highest in onions.

Natural sources of epigallocatechin-gallate, the other chemical mentioned at Pub Med as a zinc ionophore 

Though EGCG is predominantly found in green tea, it also exists in small amounts in other foods, such as (3): Tea: green, white, oolong, and black teas. Fruits: cranberries, strawberries, blackberries, kiwis, cherries, pears, peaches, apples, and avocados. Nuts: pecans, pistachios, and hazelnuts.

Here's the Amazon page:  


And here's the Pub Med article:

We're Up Against a Behemoth of a Political Delusion

 Is Douglas Murray right when he says the Left is truly convinced that they are facing a real fascist threat on the right, both in the US and in Britain?.  They talk as if they are, they accuse the right of fascism all the time, but it's so delusional it's hard to take seriously.  And yet maybe they are truly that delusional, truly do believe their delusion.    

He says this at about 11:50 in this interview: 

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t97HfUZMEQA

The conversation has built up to it for the last few minutes but here he's answering a question from one of the interviewers --  why this is all happening, why all the rioting and denial of the rrioting etc.  .

it's a scary thought that they could actually believe this delusion, especially since it is clearly the Left who are the fascists these days, the Antifa the equivalent of the brownshirts, the rioting a sort of endless Kristallnacht against some phantom enemy that includes everybody in the end.  It is so completely irrational, delusional, I have enormous trouble believing it, but perhaps he's right.  I have trouble understanding how the Left can hate Trump as much as they do, how they can accuse him of fasicsm and his followers of fascism, accuse him of white supremacy, it's so absurd it is tantamount to some kind of insanity that has never existed before that I've heard of.    

Even the saner liberals I've come to appreciate, such as Bret Weinstein, maintain some level of this kind of insanity about Trump, some  version of Trump Derangement Syndrome that persists in spite of his apparent clarity of thought about what is going on in Portland.   As Murray says Trump has many faults,  but fascism isn't one of them.  But the Left seems to be utterly incapable of seeing past this delusion.  If Murray is right about it of course.  And I'm afraid he probably is.

It's been a puzzle to me how anyone could have such a depth of hatred for Trump, which seems to be a hatred for his personaltiy quite apart from his policies, or at least I haven't been able to determine exactly which policies figure in it.  I have relatives who carry on as if he were the most evil person who ever existed because he appointed a pro-;life judge to the Supreme Court, although she's said clearly there are no grounds for repealing Roe v Wade.  That's just another bit of the delucional symdrome I guess, I suppose different people on the left hold different bits of it.

There are things about Trump, things he says, that make me cringe, but they are mostly unfortunate perssonality quirks to my mind, and in a way they could even be understood to be a sign of a good personality trait:  I'm thinking of the speech Melania Trump made recently on the campaign trail, I forget where, but she said she may have some disagreements with how he says certain things in his tweets but that his tweeting itself reflectgs his desire to communicate directly with the American people.  And that could certainly be understood as a good trait.  

I see it that way.  I see him overall as a genuine sincere uncomplicated patriot whose entire mission as President is exactly what he's presented it to be:  to restore America to her former greatness, by undoing the Leftist attacks on everything that made her great.  To restore the economy the left has destroyed for instance with overzealous environmentallism, driving our businesses out of the country and selling us out to our enemies such as China.  Restoring our pride in our nation's history, restoring measures to protect and defend Americans, such as closing our borders and strengthening our military.   

I suppose the deranged Left reads all that as "fascism," unfortunately, since they have no sense of history and no sense of anything sane really, about the responsibility of the goverfnment toward its people, how the government of a nation should function.

There is no doubt that there has been an enormous propaganda campaign over the last few decades, and probably farther back than that, done mostly through the universities but also through the lying media, to obliterate our honorable American history in the minds of the public and replace it with Marxism and Communism.  I've mentioned some of the methods I'm aware of such as the rewriting of history texts through the tax-exempt foundations, the teaching of Marxist dogma in the universities etc.  The entertainment industry has done a lot of the indoctrination of the public too, through propaganda-based movies and TV shows.    And besides the political indoctrination there has been a concerted undermining of morality so that we of the sixties generation gave up on marriage and practiced serial cohabitation cuz all that cultural baggage was no longer defensible, and abortion got legalized, and pornography got made into a free speech right and all that is just the tip of the iceberg of the remaking of America by the Left.  Now we are trying to dig in our heels at the very end of this transformation, or rather even disintegration, of our political institutions and our culture and hoping against hope, and praying to God, that it may not be too late to recover it.  SOME of us are, and who knows if there are enough of us left, and who knows what we are going to be faced with just around the corner.

Guess I got a bit carried away with Murray's observation of the motivation of the Left.  I'm afraid he's right though.  Things really are that deranged, half the population really are that deluded.

The God-Shaped Hole

 There are an awful lot of things you can point to in society at present that have a God-shaped hole.  So said Douglas Murray in an interview about a month ago.  I like Douglas Murray, I like his political view, his assessment of what's going on in the west these days.  But why do unblievers always manage to so completely distort the Christian message?  Well, he's gay and I suppose he has a problem with the biblical pronouncements against homosexuality.  Or maybe, come to think of it, it's that he has the common misappehension that Catholicism is Christianity.  Even some Christians have that wrong idea though, a failure of education.  I hasten to add that there must be some true Christians within the Roman Church, but the institution itself is not Christian, it's pagan, pagan with some Christian ornaments subverted to its paganism.

But the God-shaped hole is about the human soul.  Nothing in "society" can have a God-shaped hole.  Society may offer us all kinds of substitutes to try to fill our souls but in itself it can't HAVE a God -shaped hole.  He seems to have the idea that this is a condition in which since the society has abandoned the God of Christianity, society is looking for something to fill the gap.  Perhaps politics.  Perhaps art.  Etc.  It's a fair way of thinking, it just isn't what the God-shaped hole means.  

It would be better if he had another term for that.  "God-shaped hole" specifically refers to the human soul.  We are made in the image of God and until we commit ourselves to God we will always feel this unfillable hole in us, in our souls, in the core of out being.  So, yes, some point out that unbelievers may try to fill heir own God-shaped hole with alcohol or other addictions or material wealth, "toys" and so on, and I guess that's a fair enough notion, since the point always is that you can't fill the hole that way.  I might also add here that you can't fill it with the sort of "higher" thoughts that Jordan Peterson wants to fill it with.  It's GOD-shaped, it isn't idealism-shaped,  it isn't good-works shaped etc, it's GOD-shaped.  "You made us for Yourself and we are restless until we rest in Thee."  Augustine?  

The fallen human being, no matter how intelligent, sane, high-minded, devoted to good works, can never get it right.  Just can't.  Doesn't have the spiritual faculty that makes it possible to get it right.  We lost that faculty at the Fall, lost it all the way back in Eden, and like the loss of, say, the function of the appendix, we all inherit that loss, it comes down to us through our ancestors.  The fallen human being still has a broken image of God in his nature, still has a conscience though that too can be compromised, and in this fallen world the only way we can fill the God-shaped hole is through God's merciful redemption of us from our fallenness, by grace through faith in Christ's life and death in our place, and the regeneration, the new birth, that restores our apiritual connection with God.  

The HCQ Saga Continued: Early (February) tests of Chloroquine for COVID

 Very interesting VERY EARLY (February-March) infor\mation about Chloroquine for COVID -- not Hydroxychloroquine.  

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U7F1cnWup9M&feature=youtu.be

Side effects are mentioned and as I understand it from other sources there can be very severe neurological side effects to Chloroquine, which can also be lethal at high doses.  The doses mentioned, 500 mg a day or even twice a day, if repeated over a few more days would accumulate to a lethal dose according to Dr. Simone Gold in that video I've posted of her and Dr. Daniel Wohlgelernter.  Such a cumulative lethal dose was the reason the Brazil study failed.  From what I've heard so far Hydroxychloroquine is safer but of course if has to be prescribed within limits too.  

This video I'm linking above is interesting both because it shows very early testing and success of Chloroquine with COVID, especially in South Korea and Italy, and because it goes into quite a bit of detail explaining how it works:  it is an ionophore which acts as a "gate" for bringing zinc, which is an ion, into the cell where the zinc prevents the normal cell mechanisms from replicating the virus.  It will allow whatever zinc is already present to enter the cell,  but as I understand it, the most effective method used now is to add zinc along with an antibiotic to hydroxychloroquine  (I'm not sure why the antibiotic is used) so that there is even more zinc available to tbe cells.

Prayer and Repentance or Entertainment?

 Big gathering in Washington DC a month ago for "Prayer and Repentance," that God would give us revival.   Just what I've been wanting, right?  

https://www1.cbn.com/cbnnews/us/2020/september/be-a-part-of-the-return-a-national-and-global-day-of-repentance-friday-evening-and-all-day-saturday

 So why am I disappointed?  I've watched half an hour of it and I'm terribly disappointed, discouraged.  Is this the Church of Jesus Christ?  Is this Prayer and Repentance?  Does this please God?  It's like a big entertainment, rousing speeches and rock music.  Instead of inspiring me it's making me cry from disappointment.  I don't know if the fault is my own or I'm seeing this accurately.  I'll have to pray about it for a while but I'm afraid I'll conclude I'm right.

It's supposed to be the Church responding to God's call in 2 Chronicles 7:14:   "If My people, who are called by My Name, will humble themselves and pray and seek My face and turn from their wicked ways then will I hear from Heaven and heal their land."  LORD, are they doing that?  Will you hear and heal our land?  

I'm going to keep watching at least from time to time, it's many hours long, hoping I'll be more in tune with it as it goes on.  But has there been any hint of revival in the month since that gathering?    Again, is the fault with me or am I right that the tone here is all wrong?


==========================================

A lot of good preaching after the above.   But.  But I suspect there are many churches represented there that could be considered apostate,such as signs and wonders or spiritual-gifts churches, and I've been arguing that God is not likely to bless those churches with revival, He'd only bless the churches that have a basically sound biblical doctrine.  But I'll keep listening.  

Oh, and I found Gordon Robertson's talk objectionable in the extreme.  He thinks we need to repent of racism.  Well, maybe some individuals need to repent of racism, but it's been proved beyond a doubt by police statistics that there is no SYSTEMIC racism, and no evidence whatever that racism of any kind played a part in the deaths of the blacks that BLM has made the reason for their protests.  BLM itself is a self-proclaimed Marxist organization that has just about no interest in black lives.  Why doesn't Robertson know these things?  Iknow why most of the public doesn't:  media suppression of the truth, but Robertson shouldn't be dependent for his information on the mainstream media.

And Voddie Baucham, a black preacher, made a point of joining a mostly white church because he says it takes determination to mix the races in the churches, NOT because of racism as Robertson claims, but because the racial communities naturally gather with their own race.  We should probably repent of that habit, but it's not racism.   Or if it is then the black churches are just as guilty of it -- it was hard for Baucham to make the decision to leave his black community to join a white church.  He considered it a duty to act on his conviction that there should be more of a racial mix in the churches, but it wasn't easy for him to give up his own community.

 If we need to repent of something in the context of the rioting and destruction we are seeing today done falsely in the name of racial injustice, we need to repent of failing to use the proper authorities to quell it.

I haven't listened very far yet, a little over an hour, and although there have been some very sincere biblically astute talks and prayers offered, I don't see any fruit in actual revival from this gathering after a month, and I'm suspecting there are reasons God won't honor it with revival that maybe we don't know and aren't looking for diligently enough.  I'd love to be wrong, I'd love to see a great revival come to this nation, but as I've mentioned a njumber of times here, there have been many calls to revival in thelast few decades that have not brought about revival, except for some bogus charmismatic demon-powered"revivals."  If enough Christians were clear-sighted enough to recognize such apostasies and not join with them,  maybe, just maybe because I may not know enough about it either, but maybe God would THEN give us revival.  We need a LOT of prayer too though, one weekend tgathering isn't going to do it, we need consistent persistent protracted prayer by many Christians.
