Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be thy Name. Thy kingdom come. THY WILL BE DONE, on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation, but DELIVER US FROM EVIL.
For Thine is the kingdom and the power and the glory, forever and ever. Amen †

New pic! Nice! And thanks be to the Lord for ACB being sworn in!!! ??❤️??
Interesting rendition, and very good. More emotion but more intimate.

52 years and counting. My students used to ask me what the secret to a long-term relationship was. Half seriously and half joking, I always told them to reduce their expectations. . . 🙂 She’s an oil-patch kid and my dad drove buses for a living. Despite being fortunate enough to be well educated, neither of us lost our working-class roots. A commonality that we have both shared over the decades is an abiding trust. It’s the kind of trust that grows from who we are. If you break down somewhere, when you call you know the other person will come help. Sometimes it’s pulling out of a ditch while at other times, it’s just pulling out. Over time that kind of trust becomes sacred. If you betray it, you can put it back together but it will never be the same again. In all this time we’ve never done that.
Grew up in the piney woods of East Texas…And I know exactly what you are saying…???
Yep. And it rubs in rather than rubbing off . . . 🙂
Beautiful, Garrison. Wonderful phrasing. Simple and well stated fingerpicking.
Very similar to the way I used to play it for dinner crowds in the late 80s.
Then you’re better than I am . . . 🙂 I used to open for Townes Van Zandt. I played Fernando Sor. The audience was tolerant.
Well, you kept good musical company.
My audiences frequently filled a giant brandy snifter with tips, though that was probably because there was a lot of Chateau St Jean and Tecate with lime consumed during dinner.
Me, too. And it was well before he was famous.
Oh… Townes Van Zandt! Our Mother the Mountain is my favorite!
Thank you Garrison for this beautiful song post. Your words about your relationship are so well said.
Thank you. It seems the pathways of my life have included an knowing association with bar-ditches. When you’re someone like me, you really need someone like her to come pull you out. 🙂
Garrison Hall, love Eva Cassidy ☺️. I think my favorite is her rendition of “Fields of Gold”. Thanks for sharing her music with all the Treepers.
Thank you – that was just lovely!
The Holy Spirit Today
By Pastor Cornelius R. Stam
The believers at Pentecost “were all filled with the Holy Spirit” (Acts 2:4), but the Apostle Paul never anywhere says that all the members of the Body of Christ are filled with the Holy Spirit. It is surely clear from the record that the Corinthians and the Galatians, for example, were not filled with the Spirit, for Paul’s letters to these churches contain much of rebuke and correction. And it is also evident that believers today are not — even the best of them — wholly filled with the Spirit. The filling with the Spirit is now a goal, an attainment, which the Apostle, by inspiration, sets before us. We are not all filled with the Spirit as a matter of fact, as were the Pentecostal believers. While the Spirit does indeed dwell within us by God’s grace, we must daily appropriate His help by faith.
Hence the Apostle now exhorts believers: “Be filled with the Spirit” (Eph. 5:18) just as he exhorts them and prays for them, that they may be “filled with the fruits of righteousness” (Phil. 1:11); “filled with the knowledge of His will” (Col. 1:9); “filled with all the fulness of God” (Eph. 3:19), yet none of us have been filled with any of these.
The reason why we are not automatically filled with the Spirit is another matter, but let the reader not fail to first recognize the fact that while the believers gathered in the upper room at Pentecost were all filled with the Spirit, the believers under Paul, and since that time, have not all been filled with the Spirit. Moreover, while it is distinctly stated, again and again, that the Pentecostal believers were, or were to be, baptized with the Spirit, not once does Paul in his epistles teach that members of the Body of Christ are baptized with or in the Spirit. Instead he exhorts them to appropriate God’s grace by faith so that they may be filled with the Spirit.
https://www.bereanbiblesociety.org/the-holy-spirit-today/
Acts 2:4 And they were all filled with the Holy Ghost, and began to speak with other tongues, as the Spirit gave them utterance.
Ephesians 5:18 And be not drunk with wine, wherein is excess; but be filled with the Spirit;
Philippians 1:11 Being filled with the fruits of righteousness, which are by Jesus Christ, unto the glory and praise of God.
Colossians 1:9 For this cause we also, since the day we heard it, do not cease to pray for you, and to desire that ye might be filled with the knowledge of his will in all wisdom and spiritual understanding;
Ephesians 3:19 And to know the love of Christ, which passeth knowledge, that ye might be filled with all the fulness of God.
“The reason why we are not automatically filled with the Spirit is another matter,”
WHICH IS COVERED HERE:
Rightly Dividing the Holy Spirit
By Justin Johnson
It is right to divide Peter and Paul’s ministries. Peter and Paul both preached Jesus, but in different ways.
One preached Christ according to prophecy, the other according to a mystery (Eph 1:9-10). The same Lord Jesus Christ was glorified in two different ministries.
What should not be missed is that Peter and Paul did not invent their different ministries out of thin air. It was the Holy Spirit that spoke through them.
Rightly dividing the Prophecy and Mystery is rightly dividing the ministry of the Holy Spirit.
The Spirit Testifies of Jesus
Jesus said that when the Comforter was sent at Pentecost he would testify of him.
“But when the Comforter is come, whom I will send unto you from the Father, even the Spirit of truth, which proceedeth from the Father, he shall testify of me…” – John 15:26
When we learn to rightly divide we know it is not sufficient just to testify of Jesus, we also ask the question, “how do we testify Jesus?”
The Lord explained that the Spirit would minister in the same fashion as Jesus in his earthly ministry.
“But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in my name, he shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you.” – John 14:26
Jesus was a minister of the circumcision (Rom 15:8). The Spirit through Peter at Pentecost was a minister of the circumcision as well.
A Change in Ministry
When the Lord Jesus returned to his chief persecutor, Saul, he not only dispensed his abundant grace upon him, but also gave to him a new ministry of himself.
He revealed to Paul how to minister according to a mystery (Rom 16:25).
“But I certify you, brethren, that the gospel which was preached of me is not after man. For I neither received it of man, neither was I taught it, but by the revelation of Jesus Christ.” – Gal 1:11-12
This mystery of Christ made Paul’s ministry different than the ministry of Peter who spoke only of the subjects in prophecy.
“Yea, and all the prophets from Samuel and those that follow after, as many as have spoken, have likewise foretold of these days.” – Acts 3:24
The Spirit’s Change
At Pentecost it was the Holy Ghost that filled Peter to preach what the prophets spoke (Acts 2:4).
After the Lord Jesus Christ gave a different ministry to Paul, the Spirit changed his ministry as well, testifying of Christ according to the mystery. It was the same Spirit that filled Paul to preach the mystery of Christ.
“Whereby, when ye read, ye may understand my knowledge in the mystery of Christ) Which in other ages was not made known unto the sons of men, as it is now revealed unto his holy apostles and prophets by the Spirit;” – Eph 3:4-5
It was the Spirit working in Peter and Paul that orchestrated the transition from a ministry of Israel to a ministry about the church the new creature.
Same Spirit, Different Ministries
In order to properly rightly divide Pentecost from the Church we must rightly divide the ministry of the Spirit.
It is not enough that we see the Spirit’s ministry, we must ask, “how does he minister?” The way we preach Jesus has changed, because the Spirit changed his ministry to the church.
At Pentecost the Spirit ministered according to prophecy. Through Paul the Spirit ministered the mystery of Christ. Same Spirit, different ministries.

“In order to properly rightly divide Pentecost from the Church we must rightly divide the ministry of the Spirit. It is not enough that we see the Spirit’s ministry, we must ask, “how does he minister?” The way we preach Jesus has changed, because the Spirit changed his ministry to the church.”
What happened in post-resurrection Pentecost wasn’t going to be replicated exactly over and over, especially because the apostles were preaching to gathered Jews in Jerusalem on a feast day, which was not always going to be the target audience and location as the preaching went from Jerusalem, Judea, and Samaria to the uttermost parts of the earth.
Going forward, what happened when the same Peter from Acts 2 spoke to Gentiles as recorded in Acts 10 had specific takeaways related to the sameness, not the difference, in the manner that they received the Holy Spirit:
Acts 10:44-47 “Of Peter still speaking these words, the Holy Spirit fell upon all those hearing the word. And the believers from the circumcision, as many as had come with Peter, were amazed that the gift of the Holy Spirit has been poured out even upon the Gentiles. For they were hearing them speaking in tongues and magnifying God. Then Peter answered, “Is anyone able to withhold the water to baptize these who have received the Holy Spirit, just as we also have?”
“At Pentecost the Spirit ministered according to prophecy. Through Paul the Spirit ministered the mystery of Christ. Same Spirit, different ministries.”
As far as “properly rightly” dividing, Ephesians 3:4-6 speaks of “the mystery of Christ, which was not made known to the sons of men in other generations as now it has been revealed in the Spirit to His holy apostles and prophets, that the Gentiles are joint-heirs, and a joint-body, and joint-partakers of the promise in Christ Jesus, through the gospel. Note that supposed differences related to “the mystery of Christ” are not spoken of as exclusive to Paul at that time but to others to whom of which Peter and the other apostles certainly qualified.
Sundance, I love the new Tomb of the Unknown Soldier photo at Arlington National Cemetery in blank and white. Stunning.
IMG_3487.MOV
The last time I was there it was a warm misty rain on dark and brooding day. I really cannot describe the emotion that overcame me. Only a handful of people were there, strangers to one another, were scattered about through the bleachers observing and feeling. We all stayed through several guard changes. It was like we were mesmerized and none of us could leave, we didn’t want to. I didn’t even realize I had been soaked from the mist until we got up to leave. Just one of those days I will keep w/me.
I have noticed that Sundance changes the photo periodically. It seems to me that when he changes it something new is coming down the pike. Maybe it’s just me, or is there really a signal there?
Fun time for creatives. Finish this sentence:
Joe Biden is so old ____________________________.
….. the first protozoans called him grandpa.
….. he was alive when the Dead Sea was just sick.
….. he was alive when Cow Mountain was just a calf.
….. you’d have to cut him in half to count the growth rings, and that would take days.
….. he agreed to help Noah build the ark, BUT, his Joe-mentia kicked in so he forgot where Noah lived and never showed up for work. Instead, he gave swimming lessons to Ishmael’s kids.
……he was already middle aged when Moby Dick was a minnow.
He was there when dirt was invented!
…that when the Lord said “Let there be light!” Joe said “I’ll take a rain check!”.
President Trump
Is it just my computer or does the notification bell take forever and sometimes doesn’t download?
I feel bad to learn people have commented or asked a question, sorry if I didn’t respond.
I am having the exact same problem. It notifies me about 3 comments, but only two show up if I have “unread” designated. Sometimes I don’t get all of them until the next day and there are maybe 10 that show up “unread”. And, I am only getting some of the posts, especially the ones Sundance posts about the rally, maybe three hours late.
Thanks for letting me know it isn’t just me. Someone wanted to know about the Trump Train schedule. I found it days later, so I hope they found my answer so they can go.
Where is this? AZ?
Someone please please help me!
Living in Scotland we have NO access to non fake biased anti Trumpism.
The first web site I visit each morning is The Conservative Tree House.
I must confess I use an adblocker. I wish it were not so as it probably deprives our wonderful Sundance some deserved recompense.
My problem us two fold. I cannot get rid of that horrible distorted mug shot of the guy we call Old Jug Ears – Prince Charles.
He appears all over this place.
Now this is bad enough, but down the side is an advert for a book by Jack Cashel with a picture of a grinning O’Bama on its cover.
Please can some kind soul tell me how I can get back to enjoying the best website on the internet without gritting my teeth at having to luck at those two reprobates before breakfast.
God bless President Trump and Sundance and all on here.
Yes you do if you have internet. You found the treehouse and there are numerous sites where you may get positive and that means factual, not negative news.
Go onto the official websites like the WH, trumps twitter, the dept of State, the DOJ and so on and so forth.
Lots of folks who originally Investigated spygate like Jeff Carlson

Enjoy.
A2,
Thank you. Yes great sites.
I also look at Breitbart, Zero Hedge, American Thinker and What finger, but The Treehouse is the greatest!
Try Weasel Zippers, Patrick. I love that site! It features main articles, and with reader’s comments too. On Friday, “Zip” has an Open Thread. Lots of fun and hilarity.
Many from The_Donald on reddit have moved to this site: https://thedonald.win
And this one is a collaboration between Steve Bannon and the Chinese billionaire who’s working to take down the CCP: https://gnews.org
I can’t stand the pic of Obozo along the side either, so I enlarge my screen until I can’t see it anymore.
I’d say that access to the Treehouse is worth the visual pollution your provider provides. I’d suggest thinking of Juggie in the place of one of those members of mainland European deposed royalty whom, in the early 60s, could be found working menial jobs. I could imagine him as a men’s room attendant…
When I see ads pop up that are annoying I go to one of my favorite online shopping sites, like various fabric stores, and spend a few quality minutes viewing the different photographs of fabric they have for sale –
then for several days thereafter the only ads that pop up on my screen are ads for colorful fabric; perhaps if you find and visit one of your favorite sites, just guessing, but perhaps golf or other sporting equipment sites, and then see if those are the type of ads that fill the frame in lieu of Jug Ears?
. . . but deliver us from the Evil One.

Good Morning Treepers from a cold wet ??
As some of you will have noted I am waiting patiently (just another 9 years to go) for my legally obtained green card.
Friends over here ask why I’m so keen. It’s difficult to explain to them, they could look at the short video attached to this tweet and still not understand. For me though it’s just another reason to become an American and another reason to be optimistic that whatever happens your country will adapt and prosper.
Anyone else find the following odd…
I received a package from Walmart with an OTC pharmaceutical item not available on the shelf in our local store so I ordered it online.
The box had the Walmart logo as well as “Pharmapacks” on the outside. Along with the expected content there were postcard sized advertisements for ordering the same item on Amazon with 10% discount code. The cards also had the Pharmapacks
This is the first time I’ve seen major retailers providing discount offerings at competitors sites.
Could this be a sign that these two mega retailers are uniting under another corp. identity to attempt to control price and supply of pharmaceuticals?
That’s interesting, wtd. I’ve ordered OTC stuff through Pharmapacks online. If I’m not mistaken, the company operates out of Long Island and as far as I know, they only do OTC (and beauty products), not prescription, but I could be wrong. I do know that WalMart allows some third party sellers on their online site, so that looks to be the case with Pharmapacks. But the dual logos on the box is an interesting feature.
From what I can tell, they “partner” with both WalMart and Amazon online. So these are partnerships, not competing entities. It’s probably good business for both WalMart and Amazon, since Pharmapacks likely offers things that would be a headache for them to purchase and stock. My understanding is that the profit margins in the non-prescription “Health and Beauty” category are razor thin.
Capitalism at it’s finest.
I don’t think Rx packaging innovations would control pricing.
“I don’t think Rx packaging innovations would control pricing.”
Good point. I think the packaging is just a way of indicating the partnership. When I think of pharmaceuticals, I think of Rx or prescription drugs. I suppose the Pharmapacks name is a bit misleading, because from what I can see at their site, they don’t do Rx.
https://www.pharmapacks.com/pages/who-we-are
Thank you.
You’re welcome, wtd. I ran into the same problem you did, I was looking for a special brand of soap that has been around for a long time and it used to be that it could be found just about everywhere. Even before Walmart was a thing. Not anymore. Not even at Walmart. I have to order it on line.
I recently ordered some kitchen items thru Walmart.com but they arrived from Amazon.
Confused but suspecting I knew why, I contacted Walmart and asked why… The reply confirmed my suspicion- Amazon has arrangements with other E-tailers because of Amazon’s massive supply and distribution network…. So even when you try to not patronize Jeff Bezos you wind up doing it anyway, involuntarily.
Same thing happened when I ordered special high CRI LED light bulbs from waveformlighting.com in 2018. The bulbs came from an Amazon shipping location. Again I called the company to find out why. Another “arrangement.”
So if you’re trying to avoid Amazon, you’d best check with your prospective retailer to see if they have an “arrangement” with Amazon for product sourcing and distribution.
“Amazon has arrangements with other E-tailers because of Amazon’s massive supply and distribution network…. So even when you try to not patronize Jeff Bezos you wind up doing it anyway, involuntarily.”
Thanks, GB. I knew Amazon was ubiquitous, but I didn’t realize how much until you posted this. It’s interesting how Amazon got their start with smaller, third party sellers in order to build their network and then dumped or restricted them once they built enough to work with larger companies. A friend of mine went through that. He was a huge Amazon booster until it became too onerous to do business through them.
Not to reply to my own post, but it seems Jeff Bezos might purchase CNN.
“Fox Business Senior Business Correspondent Charles Gasparino has just broken what, if accurate, would be one hell of a media industry scoop.
Gasparino reports that Amazon founder and CEO Jeff Bezos, the proprietor of the Washington Post since he bought what was then a struggling national paper with shrinking appeal beyond the Beltway, is in talks to also buy CNN from AT&T as the telecoms giant looks to shed assets to pay down some of the massive debt accrued from building out 5G networks nationwide.”

Why do most political candidates not offer an email address to contact them? It looks to me that they contract out the web site to a political consulting company and that company doesn’t want to have to deal with emails. Or maybe they charge extra for email support.
If a candidate doesn’t offer a way to communicate with them, it tells me they will probably ignore us after they get elected too.
I’ve noticed that phenomenon myself, rush. And I agree with your conclusion.
Not only that, seldom is it now that a candidate is willing to share his/her party with those whose vote they’re trying to snare. So many ads, signs and banners – but no party affiliation noted.

Not trying to be a downer…BUT…I expect that with a Biden win we’ll see not only a push to widen abortion at public expense but a move towards the same laws Canada enacted in 2016 legalizing physician-assisted and physician administered euthanasia.
The bill was ushered in with an impressive number of restrictions limiting its use to patient-approved suicide to make the adoption easier to swallow for an large portion of the population – after all, it would ‘never happen to me’. You had to have an incurable grievous and irremediable medical condition that is in an advanced state of irreversible decline, that the patient’s natural death is reasonably foreseeable, and patient consent cannot be had in advance and must be maintained right up to the moment of death.
Sounds good, right? That was the foot in the door, now there’s a bill going thru that would allow patients who are not terminally ill but suffering from degenerative illnesses like cerebral palsy to request euthanasia. The slow chipping away continues and will go on until an EU ideal of involuntary euthanasia under a single-payer system becomes law. But that’s OK, it’ll never happen to me.
We’ve entered a culture of death where individuals can kill children and the state can kill burdensome citizens for convenience. There won’t be any crimes left that are capital offenses except being in inconvenience.
“We’ve entered a culture of death where individuals can kill children and the state can kill burdensome citizens for convenience. There won’t be any crimes left that are capital offenses except being in inconvenience.”
Yep. Not to sound paranoid, but I’ve wondered about that with this whole Covid thing. Great way to thin out the older population and reduce the Social Security and pension rolls. IMHO.
I’ve called it a ‘thinning of the herd’ for months. Well before the pandemic hit I was seeing Chinese medical posts on how they’d identified and studied over 75 coronaviruses and how their scientists were working on ways to deliver medicines through DNA-tagged tergeting.
This is part of the globalist plan – to get rid of the ‘useless eaters’ – it began in Belgium – and spread to other countries – first as assisted suicide – then, onto the mentally ill – and on and on

One could equate it with de-population, too – but, this is not new – Hitler wanted to create a pure Aryan Race – ask Gates – about sterilization – and eugenics –
It is one ugly satanist goal to kill all of God’s people!!!
THE METHOD OF MISSIONS
“Go ye therefore, and teach (disciple) all nations.” Matthew xxviii. 19
Jesus Christ did not say – Go and save souls (the salvation of souls is the supernatural work of God), but – “Go and teach,” i.e., disciple, “all nations,” and you cannot make disciples unless you are a disciple yourself. When the disciples came back from their first mission they were filled with joy because the devils were subject to them, and Jesus said – Don’t rejoice in successful service; the great secret of joy is that you are rightly related to Me. The great essential of the missionary is that he remains true to the call of God, and realizes that his one purpose is to disciple men and women to Jesus. There is a passion for souls that does not spring from God, but from the desire to make converts to our point of view.
The challenge to the missionary does not come on the line that people are difficult to get saved, that backsliders are difficult to reclaim, that there is a wadge of callous indifference; but along the line of his own personal relationship to Jesus Christ. “Believe ye that I am able to do this?” Our Lord puts that question steadily, it faces us in every individual case we meet. The one great challenge is – Do I know my Risen Lord? Do I know the power of His indwelling Spirit? Am I wise enough in God’s sight and foolish enough according to the world, to bank on what Jesus Christ has said, or am I abandoning the great supernatural position, which is the only call for a missionary, viz., boundless confidence in Christ Jesus? If I take up any other method I depart altogether from the methods laid down by Our Lord – “All power is given unto Me…, THEREFORE GO YE.”

If anyone is into comic books, there is an enormous collection going up for auction on Nov 2nd so thought it might be of interest to someone here. Vincent with the auction house said many police officers have told him they got their desire to go into law enforcement from reading comic books (as well as lawyers, doctors, etc.). I remember my brother reading MAD Magazine all the time — he went into law enforcement (now retired) but that was after doing MP when in the Army.

Excerpt:
A paper published earlier this month by Christos A. Makridis, drawing on a sample of some 150 countries from 2006 to 2018, suggested that religious freedom has a greater positive effect on human flourishing than many other factors, even economic freedom. Year-to-year increases in religious liberty, wrote Makridis, led to higher probabilities that individuals thrive.
