What is your life?

The words of Yahshua, from the writing of James('The Apocryphon of James')....

'Do you dare to spare the flesh, you for whom the spirit is an encircling wall? If you contemplate the world, how long it is before you and also how long it is after you, you will find that your life is one single day and your sufferings, one single hour. For the good will not enter the world. Scorn death, therefore, and take concern for life. Remember my cross and my death and you will live.'

Mark of the beast

Personally, going purely by scripture, the mark of the beast is the worship of money(see Deut. 6, and 1Kings 10:14), but I thought I would pass this along to anyone who thinks otherwise. The link shows what computer technology is capable of these days...

Lamentations on Tisha B'Av

Lam 1:17 Zion stretches out her hands, but there is none to comfort her; the LORD has commanded against Jacob that his neighbors should be his foes; Jerusalem has become a filthy thing among them.
Lam 1:18 "The LORD is in the right, for I have rebelled against his word; but hear, all you peoples, and behold my suffering; my maidens and my young men have gone into captivity.
Lam 1:19 "I called to my lovers but they deceived me; my priests and elders perished in the city, while they sought food to revive their strength.
Lam 1:20 "Behold, O LORD, for I am in distress, my soul is in tumult, my heart is wrung within me, because I have been very rebellious. In the street the sword bereaves; in the house it is like death.
Lam 1:21 "Hear how I groan; there is none to comfort me. All my enemies have heard of my trouble; they are glad that thou hast done it. Bring thou the day thou hast announced, and let them be as I am.
Lam 1:22 "Let all their evil-doing come before thee; and deal with them as thou hast dealt with me because of all my transgressions; for my groans are many and my heart is faint."
