The testimony of God’s Holy Word is that it is his breath and that it is everything to believers. The book of Deuteronomy records that when Moses had finished writing the words of the law and had given it to the Levites to place beside the ark and had sung his song, the song of Moses, he said, “Take heart all the words by which I am warning you today, that you may command them to your children, that they may be careful to do all the words of this law. For it is no empty word for you, but your very life” (Deuteronomy 32:46, 47; cf. 31:9–13; 21:1–43).
This set the standard for the proper regard for the Scriptures of the old covenant. This is why the psalmist devoted the 176 verses of Psalm 119 to the celebration of the Scripture, using the twenty-two letters of the Hebrew alphabet as a structure. In effect, he said God’s Word is everything from A to Z. The Scriptures are life!

by Kent Van Til | I have never felt angrier than when someone stole from me. How could they take what was mine?! My anger reflects that I have respect and honor for myself and for the things I have.

Cats 101: WTF Is Going On: The Naming of Cats
Just like in the previous number, we’re outside of linear time. After seeing the stupid humans being confused, the cats from a sort of “pyramid” and do this sort of chant about cats having a normal name and a silly name, which raises more questions than it answers. I don’t have that much story stuff to explain here, so a lot of this is gonna be screenshots I drew a bunch of circles on and some trivia.
Tumblr media
When the cats form their pyramid, it’s the best time to “take attendance” and make sure you know who everyone is. A few cats were missing from the tire choir, and that’s not uncommon in stage productions, but this pyramid usually has everyone there.
As a quick recap of who everyone is:
From Left to Right
Top Row: Plato, Alonzo, Munkustrap (a bit hidden), Old Deuteronomy, Coricopat, Tugger, George
Second Row: Tumblebrutus, Cassandra, Bombalurina, Asparagus, Skimbleshanks, Exotica
Third Row: Jellylorum, Mistoffelees, Jennyanydots, Grizabella, Tantomile, Mungojerrie
Bottom Row: Electra, Rumpleteazer, Demeter, Pouncival, Jemima, Etcetera, Victoria
Tumblr media
The Naming of Cats lists the names of several characters, but because those characters are never directly addressed by name, you wouldn’t know it. Out of every name listed in the number, James is the only one that has never been used for a character in a production of cats.
You’ll notice that Asparagus has been circled. That’s because newer American (2016-) productions have a character with this costume only in the opening, played by whoever plays Bustopher/Gus, who is credited as Peter.
One South Korean production named an extra Augustus. I haven’t been able to find a picture of him.
And Alonzo is circled, because Alonzo is Alonzo.
Tumblr media
Okay, more circles, more trivia.
Once again with American productions after 2016, they gave separate names and characterizations to the costumes the actors playing Old Deuteronomy and Tugger wear in the opening. Old Deuteronomy is called Victor and Tugger is called Bill Bailey.
Out of these opening characters, the only one I know anything about is Bill Bailey, because the most recent American tour cast has filled in some of the gaps. Zach Bravo, currently touring America as Tugger, decided that Bill Bailey was a previous Jellicle Choice who was reborn as Tugger. We can see both because of the whole “linear time” thing I’ve already explained.
Victor is also the name of a character in the original London production, the only character from said production not to be included in the VHS.
A South African production that eventually became a world tour had an extra named Jonathan, who looked pretty much the same as George.
George is circled because George.
Bill Bailey is the London version of Tumblebrutus, so I circled Tumblebrutus as well.
Tumblr media
Plato, Electra, and Demeter are all characters in this production. George has also been circled because he’s sometimes credited as Admetus.
Tumblr media
Munkustrap and Coricopat are circled because that’s who they are. Mistoffelees is circled because London productions credit him as Quaxo outside of his number. The credits of the VHS don’t do this, so I don’t think 1998 Misto counts as Quaxo, but I circled him anyway.
In productions that use the name, Quaxo and Mistoffelees are usually alter egos of sorts. They’re still the same character, in the same way Clark Kent and Superman are the same character. However, Clark Kent Quaxo can use magic and doesn’t really try to hide it, so the alter ego thing might be a little bit pointless. This is really confusing, which is why this naming convention just doesn’t happen outside the UK.
Tumblr media
Two more names, two more circles. Nothing complicated here.
Bonus Fun Fact: TS Eliot’s cat was named Jellylorum, which he included in the poem that became this number. I have no idea where he got the name from, but he was something of an expert in Weird Cat Names.
Other Cats That Appear in Some Productions That TS Eliot Named (but not in any official poem, so you otherwise wouldn’t know): Tantomile, Carbucketty, Pouncival, Sillabub, Noilly Prat, Murad, and probably a few others. Only two of those names are relevant to this production though. Apparently, Tantomile is a name for a witch’s cat and Pouncival is a combination of “pounce” and the name Percival, which is just cute.
Tumblr media
Now we get to the part that really only fully works when there’s an audience to interact with. In the video, the cats crawl around the stage a bit and form groups. In a stage production, they crawl around the audience. It’s like the yellow/green eyes during the Overture.
Tumblr media
Well, wherever most of the cats go, Victoria wanders off in her own direction. You might notice that as this scene goes on, Victoria starts acting a bit strange.
The Strangeness inspires her to do this:
Tumblr media
After that, everyone but Victoria leaves. Technically, Misto doesn’t leave, he just hides while waiting for his cue, but just pretend everyone leaves.

A Theory
So, Cats stage musical, Mr. Mistoffelees seemed to get mysteriously more annoyed/jealous that nobody’s acknowledging his existence/singing about him. Almost like he’s not happy his song is in the middle (give or take a song depending on what version) of Act II.
Also, he disappears whenever McCavity is on stage.
What if...
Mistoffelees is McCavity? Like a Superman/Clark Kent thing?
I mean, what if he was so unhappy about being ignored that he takes Deuteronomy just so people would realise how much he means to the group?
So he goes away, dresses himself up, and takes the father figure of the Jellicles.
It makes sense to me.
Sorry for this horrible theory.

Beware of delilah spirit (male and female) Impression from Our FATHER in Heaven
This morning while I was in pray, I felt an impression from Our Father in Heaven.  I believe Our Father YAHWEH, is warning some of US to #beware of the #delilah #spirit.
What is the delilah spirit?
https://duckduckgo.com/?q=what+is+the+delilah+spirit&t=brave&ia=web
I am glad you asked.....
IN the story of Samson, His 1st wife was killed. Samson is a Judge in the BIble. Judges are supposed to not only follow the Law of GOD, but live the Law of GOD YAHWEH.  This is why SAMSON was given several rules to follow in order to maintain His position from GOD.
https://biblehub.com/library/marshall/the_wonder_book_of_bible_stories/the_story_of_samson_the.htm
****In the tribe-land of Dan, which was next to the country of the Philistines, there was living a man named Manoah. One day an angel came to his wife and said:
"You shall have a son, and when he grows up he will begin to save Israel from the hand of the Philistines. But your son must never drink any wine or strong drink as long as he lives. And his hair must be allowed to grow long and must never be cut, for he shall be a Nazarite under a vow to the Lord."
When a child was given especially to God, or when a man gave himself to some work for God, he was forbidden to drink wine, and as a sign, his hair was left to grow long while the vow or promise to God was upon him. Such a person as this was called a Nazarite, a word which means "one who has a vow"; and Manoah's child was to be a Nazarite, and under a vow, as long as he lived.****
Samson for the most part kept each order from Our Father in Heaven.....but then Samson met Delilah.
Many believe that Samson's failure began at revealing His secret to Delilah, but I believe Samson failure began at running into His sight and not into GOD.
What do I mean?
While, in the Book of Exodus and Leviticus, and Numbers, and Deuteronomy.... GOD repeatedly tells HIS Priest or Anointed, not to ... 1. Be unequally yoked. 2. Don't take covenant with evil. 3. Stay away( no marriage or business or trade) from Cannanites (this included their clans) https://mysteriesofgod.wordpress.com/2017/10/09/canaanites/ 4. Fear the Lord Our GOD, Seek HIM 1st and all will go WELL.
Those 4 above listed are the bare bones of what it took to stay right with GOD. OF course, We have the Sabbath other 613 Laws of YAH..... but that is another lesson for another time.
The point is If Samson would have turned away from Delilah the minute He found out she was of the Philistines... the story of Samson would have been completely different...but Samson made excuses, "reasoned" weighed the odds, maybe took ego of His Strength, and of course there's the whole confusing lust for love aspect too.
In betraying GOD, Samson allowed Himself to be made a fool by a harlot  which lead to His ruin.
1. I believe GOD, is warning us not to tell all our secrets to people. 2. Use discernment who we call "friend" or chose to love. 3. Don't "play", compromise, work, volunteer, dates with demons or witches
This Delilah spirit can be male or female. Just like the jezebel spirit.  Both evil spirits are rooted in witch craft and trickery. Both lead to the down fall from an individual, and can endanger a person and their family.
With a rise in blackouts, crashes, darkness and so on.... those of US who SEER, Prophetic, Or Vision Eyes, maybe sensing what is going on.
I believe GOD is wronging or maybe revealing to someone what attack they have or had been recently around.
So what can be done?
The links listed below are links I actually Pray along with. I have found great break throughs and success in warding off, decapitating, and destroying the enemy of the unseen realm.
In the nature realm, I have have able to avoid even being stuck or/and shot by remaining still when GOD has Commanded.
I am not paid to endorse nor affiliated, I am sharing because I care.

Life to Moses and food to Jesus
When Jesus began his ministry and was tempted by Satan, his encyclopedic knowledge of the Word enabled him to defeat the tempter with three deft quotations from Deuteronomy (see Luke 4:1–13; cf. Deuteronomy 8:3; 6:13, 16). Jesus Christ, God incarnate, leaned on the sufficiency of Scripture in his hour of need. Indeed, his summary response to the tempter was like a bookend to Moses’ declaration that the Scriptures are “your life,” for Jesus insisted that they are the soul’s essential food–”It is written, ‘Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that comes from the mouth of God’” (Matthew 4:4; cf. Luke 4:4; Deuteronomy 8:3).
The Scriptures were life to Moses and food to Jesus. They cannot and must not be anything less to us. They are the very breath of God.
~ Bryan Chapell, R. Kent Hughes

by Kent Van Til | What do you desire? Surely some good things: a tasty, hearty meal; a satisfying, successful job; good times with friends, and so on. But maybe you also have some sinful desires: sex outside of marriage, vengeance on your enemies, wanting things that you can’t have because they belong to...

Zurich is the next in my series of original productions for the 40th anniversary week!
Zurich and the subsequent European tour is the last of the major productions derived from the original Vienna production, though it merges with the London tradition - especially as regards costume design, though it adds its own particular twist there too.
So far as I can tell, Paul Hadobas is Munkustrap here, with that magnificent Munkustance. Rory Campbell is Gus, Brian Carmack is Tugger, Lindsay Chambers is Mistoffelees, and Tina Decker is Jemima.
For the rest, the first cast is: Alonzo / Rumpus Cat: David Kent Bombalurina: Andie Mellom Cassandra: Laura Quinn Coricopat: Adam Richard Jones Demeter: Danielle Brunner Deuteronomy: Jan Polak Jellylorum: Niki Romijn Jennyanydots: Jasna Ivir Mungojerrie: Michael Fritzke Plato: Alexander Riff Pouncival: T J Hee Rumpleteazer: Kristi Sperling Skimbleshanks: Rod Roberts Tantomile: Niki Ankenbrand Tumblebrutus: Ton Voogt Victoria: Angela Savage (PS, Tumblebrutus forgot his shoes! 🥺)

Day 6. Oswego, NY to Potsdam, NY. 138 miles.
I have a lie in and breakfast before taking the Harley riders road to Potsdam and more luxurious accommodation.
Feeling rested and ready for a good day. Breakfast is served on 'styrene tableware with plastic cutlery as is the case everywhere. The waitress takes my fruit away to peel it with a decent knife. Toasted English muffins,of course, with grape jam.
The route that Google cycle gives me is mainly route 11 which travels almost due North through quaint towns like Pulaski, Watertown and Adams and villages like Evans Mills and Antwerp.
Over the last 3 days the route has hosted a yard sale with route front houses putting out temporary stalls for old clothes and toys. Cars stop at a moment's notice if they catch sight of a possible bargain.
I'm not the only motorcycle on the road. Groups of Harley Davidson riders pass me in both directions. With two open fingers pointing to the ground we acknowledge each other as kindred spirits (I think).
There are signs and symbols everywhere in the US most of which don't mean a thing to me. For example so many houses and outbuildings have a large single star fastened to the. Lots of houses have the stars and stripes but some also have pennants with tractors or flowers on them. Then there are the messages I can't read. 'Are you bathed in the blood of Christ?'; 'Obama is the same as Rev Jim Jones except for one thing, colour!':
The types of churches are a mystery too. There are fewer in the North but I didn't expect to see The Korean Presbyterian Church or The Rock Church. Most churches have eye catching boards from the assertive, 'Read Deuteronomy 9-2, 6' to the humorous, 'In our church you come as you are, you can change inside.'
Near Ellisburg I stop at a sign for Amish furniture. Unfortunately it's all imported from Ohio so I can't watch its manufacture. Some is made from polypropylene which is a puzzle. The mother of the proprietor shows me around and we talk about our children.
Outside Gouverneur I stop at a little Mom and Pop diner, open since 1947. Liver and onions dinner and a banana split, too large to finish. Oh the coleslaw! Wonderful!
I'm boiling despite being out of my waterproofs and I can't stand waiting for the traffic so I commit the cardinal son of filtering forward. A car does a little nudge outward to signal dissatisfaction.
It's all far removed from the mountains and reminiscent of so many Midwest towns. There is an extreme parochial pride and the city and county signs have little epithets; 'Kent County, God's Country'; 'Ellisburg, A Welcoming Community'.
I'm at my lodging for 2 nights, the Maple Rock B&B and cooking class. Audrey is a young home economics teacher who got made redundant and started the business. Jake is still teaching English. The home is beautifully kept and ice cool from the 'air' which I get to control.
My plan for tomorrow is to ride through the Adirondacks after a tip from Eric, a friend of Bill Dragoo's. I start with nothing. There are no trails on Viewfinder. Audrey suggests the Lawrence County website for ATV trails and there's one that starts 10 minutes away. With that and the Franklin County map I can loop round a 6 hour trail and do it minus a lot of my luggage. I'm experimenting with Google maps. Routes can be picked provided there's a road. Some of the ATV trails are truly off road and don't quite match up but I have something to go on. The routes can be shared to both my phones and offline maps can be downloaded. It's not too remote so I will be OK and I can always retrace my steps via my Garmin.
Carolyn has been playing with technology too and I get an unexpected video call. Nice.
I hear from Jason Dalrymple. He's made it to the Arctic Ocean and back and is now playing in the Rockies. That could be me in another three weeks.
Audrey and Jake are at their parent's house, next door and I have the house to myself.
I scream my frustration at Tumblr which refuses to upload my photos in sequence. The WiFi and internet connection could be better but Tumblr seems to have gone down.
Bear with me if you see posts appear and disappear.
