Rulers of Evil - Chapter 8 (Rome = Washington DC)
This remarkably well-researched book has a lot to say about western government and why the Vatican took the Jesuits underground after the Protestant Reformation. They went to great lengths to persuade American Protestants that the Jesuits were no longer a threat and that the inquisition was a thing of the past. They aren't and it isn't. It's a long-game.

PAGA Impact Study 2021
View Full Report Here https://www.cabia.org/app/uploads/CAB...
The government of California is the very embodiment of inefficiency. Systems that function THIS inefficiently need to be reset. We don't even need to go back to the beginning - just 20 years would do it. An employee with a grievance adjudicated by the Labor Board stood to gain twice as much money under the old system while an employer stood to lose only half as much. The new system of court adjudicated labor disputes is robbing from both parties to pay the lawyers. The old system wasn't broken: Time for a RESET.

TTSC Ep13: Remember The Titans
Genesis 6:1-4 is perhaps the most enigmatic piece if scripture in the whole Bible. It challenges the credulity of modern minds! Yet how many startling creatures do we find in the depths of the ocean that defy imagination - and would be equally disbelieved - were it not for the film captured and specimens retrieved? Is there tangible evidence of the truth of Genesis 6:1-4? Are there trustworthy details available in other ancient texts? Did Jesus and his half-brothers (James & Jude) believe this event was actual history destined to repeat itself on the world stage? This episode explains a lot about the spirit world and may frighten young viewers - parents stay close! This is an eye-opening 25 minute ride!

TTSC Ep12: The The Lost World of Our Ancestors
June 7, 2020
Once upon a time, our world was lush and green and bursting with life. The Bible tells us that all animals and mankind were vegetarians with lifespans of hundreds of years. Contrary to the evolution myths that the government museums propagate, this was not a predatory world. Vegetarians don't eat each other! Yet Adam and Eve's fateful decision to eat the forbidden fruit of knowledge of good & evil had dire consequence. This garden world only lasted 2000 years. What happened? In today's lesson we discover Noah, the Ark and a watery global makeover that rebooted the world we know today.

TTSC Ep10 The BEST Kind of Magic
May 24, 2020
The most common type of magic is ...movie magic! You need an imagination to help you feel like it's real. We can use movie magic to remind each other of the power of Love, Joy and Hope! Any place that activates your imagination and helps you feel loved, joyful and hopeful is all the magic we need! A Disney theme park is a magical imaginative place but the magic doesn't work unless you bring the right people with you because love, joy and hope come from people...who get it from God. Even the happiest place on earth can be a miserable experience if you're with grumpy selfish people. Are you the grumpy one? God's love is the sugar that turns bread & water into tea and cakes. Never underestimate its healing power. Love isn't just a feeling - it's the power that makes you want to try harder and be better! That's how we change the world: we start by changing ourselves.

TTSC ep11: The Brotherhood of Babel
May 31, 2020
The Brotherhood of Babel (A rebellion against social distancing)
In about the year 2222BC, a charismatic leader named Nimrod led masses of people in extensive construction projects that spanned the middle east. The tower at Babylon was designed to "make a name for ourselves," "reach the heavens," and "resist God's command to spread out on the earth." God's command was for their health and well-being but they preferred to build towers to glorify themselves and their own worst instincts. To bring mankind back from the brink of self-destruction, God and his angelic council confused their language and splintered it into 72 distinct languages. Unable to communicate, mankind abandoned the tower and moved off to other lands. But they never forgot their tower project and many tribes built other smaller towers (ziggurats) in Asia, Africa and the Americas. The brutal practice of human sacrifice by the Mayans is recorded in carved glyphs in their abandoned cities of stone. These stone structures remain as monuments to mankind's rebellion against God's loving kindness.

CLLO Ep11: Will Lawmakers listen to the people? The problem is academic.
When a computer is infected with a virus that corrupts the hard drive, there's no other solution than to erase the computer and start over again. That is what we have with California labor law and AB5. AB5 is the corrupted file that has killed the hard drive of California. It's time to wipe it out and start over. Kevin Kiley has a bill that will do that. Vote for it! Then ask freelancers and job creators in California what they need to thrive. Stop letting lawyer unions and labor unions (who never created any jobs) write all your legislations!

How Mitch Tied Up Business - A PAGA story for the kid in you
Employers who have good relationships with their employees are being targeted for lawsuits in California. Why? Because a relaxed and morally honest work environment is less likely to keep perfect records of every move that workers make. A distrustful employer keeps a tight reign on employees but a trusting employer allows lots of freedom. It's in the paperwork that the lawyers can find technical faults and build big lawsuits. If you're not a slave-driving employers who keeps meticulous records then you will be a PAGA lawsuit victim. Giving a Christmas bonus could cost you a million dollars (no exaggeration).

Join the Fight to Fix PAGA
The Private Attorneys General Act is what's making the California business climate so toxic. Employees are being encouraged by shark lawyers to sue their employers over technicalities and employers are powerless to fight back without spending a mint in legal fees. It's a racket that only the legislature can fix...but only if the people make enough noise. Join the fight!

CLLO Ep9: Freelancers Against AB5 - The Stories are True!
Employers across the country are afraid to hire freelancers from California and Karen Anderson of Freelancers Against AB5 can tell you why. There is a great deal at stake in the state of California. Corrupt politicians have an agenda to bring every job in California back to the plantation, one lawsuit at a time. Last year, these lawmakers obliterated the gig economy with one poisonous bill: AB5. Freelancers are no longer free to work on their own flexible schedule based on their own particular needs. AB5 is so confusing that even the lawyers don't know what it all means! They just know it's written vaguely enough that they can make any employer guilty in a lawsuit whenever they feel like suing. Welcome to the People's Republic of California where freelance (like freedom) is an illusion.

CLLO Ep10: Surprising Twists in the PAGA Saga with Shannon Grove (CA State Senator)
When regulations have the weight of law, you - the business owner - are guilty unless you prove you're innocent. AB-5 is the latest installment of tyranny because (except for those groups who paid huge piles of money to be exempted) everyone who wants to hire or be hired for any job in California must now classify themselves as either an employer or employee. That means if you want to hire an interpreter or performer or musician for a short gig, you now have to form a business and hire him as a full blown employee with all the paperwork and benefits demanded under the Labor Code. This enables him to sue you for any infraction of the labor code if he is so inclined. PAGA enriches the state and the trial lawyers under the pretext of justice for the little guy. AB-5 was designed to obliterate the little guy's right to work for other little guys. Thanks to narrow-minded legislators, it just got a LOT harder and a LOT more expensive to work in California for anyone other than a large corporation.

Fight the Sharks in Suits! PAGA Lawsuit Rally - Nov 28, 2018
This rally at Orange County's Old Courthouse marked the filing of CABIA's lawsuit against the State of California. Key argument: separation of powers and equal protection are being violated by the PAGA law. Medium and small businesses of California are being destroyed by the thousands with unfair accusations that cannot be defended against without going into debt. The lawsuit process is itself punitive because there is no presumption of innocence. PAGA harms honest employers and employees but rewards those who are willing to game the system.

Victimized Business Owners Protest Outside Kingsley & Kingsley Offices in Sherman Oaks CA in 2018
PAGA law is shark bait. Kingsley is the #2 shark in Los Angeles who uses the PAGA law to defraud small businesses out of millions of dollars "legally" through attorney's fees. The state of CA receives a cut of any settlement only after the lawyer takes his. The hapless plaintiff only receives a few hundred dollars at most. These small business owners picketed outside his office in Sherman Oaks in December 2018 and confronted him on his abuses. Kingsley & Kingsley has filed over 600 PAGA lawsuits. PAGA is shark bait!

TTSC Ep 9: Magic Words
Do you know any magic words? The most popular way of making something sound like magic is to say it in an ancient language. Latin was the common language of the Roman empire for 1000 years but nowadays there are very few Latin words left in our languages because we have forgotten them and changed them. The Bible was available in the Latin language for 1000 years until about 1640AD when new versions were translated in English. But even those new English versions have now become old enough to sound magical too. That's the curious thing about old languages, they become mysterious when we forget them. That's why the power isn't in the words themselves but in the WORD of their meaning. Jesus Christ is the Word of God who became a man so we could meet him and know he is more powerful than any magic!

TTSC Ep8: Impossible Things in our Impossible World
We live in a world of impossible things! Life on earth is so unlikely as to fall into the realm of impossibility - yet here we are! Defying the odds! How many of the impossible stories in the Bible have you resisted believing in order to avoid being picked on by small-minded scoffers? May I show you some impossible things in our world that are equally impossible? This is why the reliability of witnesses is so important when you learn new things. Our use of the word "impossible" says more about our own ignorance than it does about the world's possibilities....or about the God who created this world.

TTSC Ep 6: What is True Love?
With as many stories we write about true love, it is very rare to hear it correctly defined. The Bible defines true love in 1 Corinthians 13:4-7 with qualities that are rarely achieved in our generation. Love is not feelings. It is the fruit of your character combined with your loyalty to others. This episode breaks it down in simple terms and shows that only Jesus Christ has ever demonstrated perfect love.

TTSC Ep 5: What Killed the Dead Sea?
Have you ever wondered what killed the Dead Sea? Did you know that it was once a lush valley called Siddim with streams, marshes, tar pits and grasslands? It was like a little piece of heaven where many cities and towns were built in ancient times. In Genesis 14 we learn about the battle of the 9 kings among whom were Bera and Birsha, the kings of Soddom and Gomorrah. This was when Abraham met them and discovered their wicked habits and their narcisism. It was only a matter of time before they would earn divine judgment. Abraham was a witness to these events. Archeology tells us that a meteor explosion in the lower atmosphere decimated the valley of Siddim and made it unapproachable for hundreds of years and uninhabitable for thousands. A coincidence? Sometimes, a coincidence is just a message from God that we choose to ignore.

TTSC Ep3 God's Cosmic Clock and His 4 Favorite Holidays
2020-Apr-5
How did time begin? The universe is a clock! We, like the little mouse in the nursery rhyme, are running up and down this astro clock as we ride this earth in its orbit around the sun. God established 4 "forever" holidays that are recorded in Leviticus 23 that are scheduled according to the astro clock.
Passover/First Fruits/Unleavened Bread/Feast of Weeks = 1st Holiday.
First fruits celebrates with raw grain but Feast of Weeks with baked yeast bread. Christian fulfillment versions are: Passover = Good Friday, First Fruits = Easter, Feast of Weeks = Pentecost (Anointing of the Holy Spirit to believers)
Rosh Hashanah = 2nd
Yom Kippur = 3rd
Sukkot = 4th
One day, in the Kingdom of God, we will ALL celebrate Sukkot because we will all finally be "home."
