The days are coming when the LORD/ YHWH OF HOSTS will visit His Heritage Israel, and His REDEEMED shall RETURN, and come with SINGING unto ZION, and EVERLASTING JOY shall be upon their HEAD, they shall OBTAIN GLADNESS and JOY, and SORROW and MOURNING shall FLEE AWAY - See, His Righteousness is NEAR, His SALVATION is gone forth, and His ARMS shall JUDGE the people, and the ISLES shall WAIT upon Him, and on His ARM shall they TRUST, for His SALVATION shall be FOREVER, and His RIGHTEOUSNESS shall NOT be abolished, for SOON, the LORD/YHWH OF HOSTS shall comfort ZION, and He will comfort all of her waste places, and He will make her wilderness like EDEN, and her desert like the Garden of the LORD/YHWH, JOY and GLADNESS shall be found therein, THANKSGIVING and the VOICE OF MELODY, for surely, O Israel, in that day you will hear and give ear, for a LAW shall proceed from the LORD/YHWH OF HOSTS, and He will make His JUDGMENT to rest for a LIGHT of the people, and for those of you who know Righteousness, the people in whose heart lives the LORD/YHWH'S LAWS, do not fear the reproach of men, neither be afraid of their revilings, for the MOTH shall EAT THEM UP like a garment, and the WORM shall EAT THEM like wool, but the LORD/YHWH'S RIGHTEOUSNESS shall be forever, and His SALVATION from generation to generation, for the DAYS ARE COMING when the LORD/YHWH OF HOSTS shall AWAKEN His Strength - even the Strength of His Mighty Arm, and it shall CRUSH all who oppose Him in that day which is even now at-hand-to-come.

JERUSALEM has for nearly 2,000 years drank at the HAND OF THE LORD/YHWH OF HOSTS the CUP of His FURY, she has even drank the dregs of the CUP OF TREMBLING, and wrung them out, but NOW the LORD/YHWH will SOON plead the CAUSE of His people, for He will take out of your hand the CUP OF TREMBLING, even the DREGS of the CUP OF HIS FURY - and you, O Jerusalem, shall never drink it again, but the LORD/YHWH OF HOSTS will surely put it into the hand of those who have afflicted you, which have said to your soul, 'Bow down that we may go over', and you have LAID YOUR BODY as the ground, and as the street, to them that went over, but now, your ELOHIM is about to REDEEM you even as in the days of old, BUT you will no longer forsake Him, for you shall be MARRIED unto Him, and you shall be unto Him for a name of RENOWN, and He shall be unto you for a GLORIOUS HOLY COVERING in His hands with which the LORD/YHWH OF HOSTS shall bless all nations who dwell upon the earth, for the iniquities of all nations upon the earth shall be FORGIVEN in the day in which He does this (Isaiah Ch. 51; Hosea 2:14-23; Zechariah 13:7-9; Zechariah Ch. 11; Isaiah 45:8, 20-25; Jeremiah 3:12-19; Jeremiah 16:14-20; Jeremiah 23:1-8; Jeremiah Chs. 30 and 31; Jeremiah 33:6-16; Isaiah Ch. 11; Isaiah 2:1-4; Micah 4:1-5; Micah 7:7-20; Jeremiah 12:14-17; Zechariah Chs. 8, 9, 10, 12 and 14; Isaiah Chs. 35, 49 thru 62, 65 and 66; Isaiah 16:1-5; Isaiah 24:21-23; Isaiah Ch. 4; Ezekiel Chs. 34, 36, 37:15-28; Zephaniah 3:8-20; Obadiah Ch. 1).

O Earth, Earth the appointed time IS COMING when the Whole Earth will be FILLED with the Knowledge and Glory of our LORD/YHWH as the waters cover the sea, and HOW GREAT shall be the PEACE of Man in those days (Habakkuk 2:14; Isaiah 11:1-10; Psalm Ch. 46; Isaiah 9:1-7; Zechariah 9:9-10; Isaiah 34:1-4; Joel Ch. 3; Psalm Ch.2; Psalm Ch.110). O Earth, Earth, have you not known and have you not heard that your Righteous Dead will live again in all glories (Isaiah 26:19; Psalm Ch. 45; Psalm 50:1-6; Daniel 12:1-3; Matthew 13:41-43; Matthew Ch. 24; Mark Ch.13; Luke Ch. 21; John Chs. 5 and 6; 1 Corinthians Ch. 15; 1 Thessalonians 4:13-18; Revelation Chs. 1, 2 and 3; Revelation 5:1-10; Revelation 10:7; Isaiah 27:12-13; Revelation 11:15-19; Revelation 14:1-5, 14- 16; Revelation 17:14; Revelation 19:1-16; Revelation 20:1-6).

President Trump was reportedly targeted again, and this time, authorities say they stopped it before it was too late.

An armed suspect was arrested after allegedly monitoring security ahead of President Trump's visit to California.

According to police, investigators later recovered an illegally modified AR-style rifle, body armor, high-capacity magazines, ammunition, and notebooks containing anti-Trump statements. May God protect the President.

The Bondi Beach massacre brought another strange phenomenon for these soldiers: they worried more for their family in Sydney than for themselves, despite living in Israel and being in the IDF.

“They Slept in the Grass” is set just outside Auschwitz in 1945, right after liberation. For years, survivors were trapped behind barbed wire and walls, their lives confined to horror and despair. When the gates finally opened, some walked beyond the camp’s boundary—for the first time in years—and simply lay down in the grass.

This moment of stillness is deeply significant. Looking up at the sky, feeling the grass beneath them, represents a fragile reclaiming of freedom and humanity. It’s a return to basic sensations—the open air, the moving clouds—that had been denied to them for so long.

No words are spoken, underscoring the enormity of what they have endured and the exhaustion they feel. The silence is not emptiness but a shared, unspoken understanding. The slow-moving clouds above contrast with the urgency and terror of their past, suggesting that time itself has begun to slow, and healing might be possible.

This story shows how liberation is not always marked by celebration or speech but sometimes by quiet moments of reconnection with the world. After unimaginable suffering, these survivors find peace in simply lying in the grass—an act of profound, delicate rebirth.

Satan, the Devil, the god and ruler of this World (Luke 4:1-13; 2 Corinthians 4:4; John 12:31; John 14:30), that great Deceiver, who deceives the whole world and who has the WORLD held CAPTIVE and in PRISON HOUSES by his EVIL WAYS (Isaiah 42:1-7; Isaiah 14:12-17; Revelation Ch 12; Acts 26:18; Isaiah Ch 49), will now soon (he has begun already) employ unsuspecting leaders of nations to chart his course in attempting to DESTROY the whole of humanity with the EARTH**Matthew Ch 24; Mark Ch 13; Luke Ch 21**(Jesus/Yeshua, who is from Old, from Everlasting**Micah 5:1-4**testified in the years of His ministry, saying, "I saw SATAN fall like LIGHTNING from heaven"**Luke 10:18**, for He was there with the Living Father and His great HOST of ANGELS when Satan deceived ONE--THIRD of the Holy Angels into following his REBELLION**Ezekiel 28:11-19; Revelation 12:1-5**Satan was cast out of Heaven, he and the rebellious Angels who followed him, and now, he and they, are awaiting their JUDGEMENT**Jude 1:1-6; Revelation Ch 16; Revelation 20:1-3**at Christ's return with the Holy Angels who did NOT leave their FIRST ESTATE), and he would achieve this if our LORD did not send His TWO PROPHETS to JERUSALEM CLOTHED in SACKCLOTH in these LATTER DAYS during the coming Great Tribulation of 3-1/2 Years OR 42 Months OR 1,260 Days**Zechariah Ch 4; Joel 2:28-32; Obadiah 1:17-21; Revelation 11:1-14; Revelation Ch 8, these 2 PROPHETS of our LORD will bring these FOUR TRUMPET PLAGUES upon the whole of humanity as listed in said Ch 8**I COUNSEL YOU TO READ THESE PLAGUES**, and they shall bring as many PLAGUES as they will as Revelation 11:1-14 says (Many peoples from many nations will heed their warning and shall come out of the Great Tribulation having washed their clothes and made them white in the BLOOD of the Holy Lamb of our FATHER in heaven**Revelation 7:9-17), and the LORD will not prolong the 3-1/2 years Great Tribulation for His ELECTS SAKE, the Called, the Chosen and Faithful saints, who will be clothed upon with an ETERNAL SPIRIT BODY at the return of Jesus, the Living Christ, with the Holy Angels. Blessed are those who have been Called, and who have been Chosen, and who have been Faithful to our Father and His Christ, and who have responded by bearing fruit in Righteousness, some 100 fold, some 60 fold and some 30 fold, that they might be PRESENTED to the MARRIAGE of the Holy Lamb of His and our Father (Matthew 25:1-13; Revelation 14:1-5; Revelation 19:1-16; Psalm Ch 45, our Father in heaven plans the marriage of HIS KING - the SON OF MAN - JESUS/YESHUA, to His BRIDE, our Father's Church, composed of Spiritual Virgins who have not defiled themselves with false religions but have wholly followed their Lord where He leads them. These have been REDEEMED from the EARTH being the FIRST FRUITS unto the Father and His Holy Lamb, and they shall reign with Him on EARTH a 1,000 years, this only being the BEGINNING of their GLORIES (Revelation Chs 20, 21 and 22). The Kingdom of our Father and His Holy Lamb on EARTH draws near in these LATTER DAYS (Daniel Chs 7 and 2). But who will believe the Report? Will you?

BEFORE the Great Tribulation begins the DAILY SACRIFICES and GRAIN OFFERINGS will again be stopped and forbidden as the Jewish Temple will be REBUILT as evidenced by Isaiah 66:1-4; Matthew Ch 24; Mark Ch 13; Luke Ch 21; and Revelation 11:1-3 has testified as the Angel told the Apostle John to rise and MEASURE the Temple of God and the people inside with the ALTAR but the COURT outside the Temple do not measure it, for it has been given into the hands of the GENTILES; there will then be WAR in HEAVEN the 2nd time (the 1st time as shown in Ezekiel 28:11-19, and other scriptures as shown above) between the Archangel Michael and his Angels against Satan and the demonic spirits who left their First Estate as shown above. Satan will lose yet once more BUT WOE WOE WOE to the inhabitants of the Earth for He has been cast out of heaven and has fallen to the earth having great WRATH on the whole of humanity and he shall cast his wrath upon the SEAS (Isaiah 14:12-17; Revelation 12:7-17: Daniel 12:1-3; Matthew Ch 24; Mark Ch 13; Luke Ch 21).

I have added here many of the world events which will occur during the coming Great Tribulation of 3-1/2 Years OR 42 Months OR 1,260 Days: Daniel Chs 7 and 2; Daniel 11:40-45; Daniel Ch 12; Matthew Ch 24; Mark Ch 13; Luke Ch 21; Revelation Chs 6 and 7 and 8 and 9 and 11:1-14; Chs 12 and 13 and portions of Ch 14, all of Chs 17 and 18. Amen! God willing I will bring to the full meaning shortly.

Norma (Cowan) Holladay - Pasadena (1959-63)
From Jason Musgrove, pastor, Chattanooga, TN (United Church of God)

With heavy hearts, we announce that Norma Violet (Cowan) Holladay died peacefully on August 4 at the age of 84.

She was a devoted wife to her husband, Roy, for 63 years and a treasured mother to their five sons. Everyone who knew her will remember her sweet and gentle spirit, her kindness and the way she made others feel welcomed and cared for. She had a special gift for showing love and compassion to everyone she met and spent countless hours writing thousands of cards to people around the world. Roy often said that when they married, he did not have those same qualities, but thankfully, at least some of them rubbed off on him.

While our hearts are broken, we find comfort in knowing that she lived a full and blessed life and passed peacefully with her family around her. We are deeply grateful for the many years, memories and blessings we shared with her. We also take great comfort in God's plan and in the sure hope that we will see her again.

Thank you for all the prayers and love extended to us during this time. Please continue to keep our family, and especially, Roy, in your thoughts and prayers as we mourn the loss of an extraordinary wife, mother, grandmother and friend.

With love,

The Holladay family
