Immanuel

I love you, Steph!  From Google's AI Gemini: "Immanuel,"  a Hebrew name meaning "God with us," is a significant biblical term for Jesus, as prophesied in Isaiah and interpreted in the Gospel of Matthew .  It is a common name, particularly in Christian and Jewish traditions, with various forms like Emmanuel, Manuel, and Imanol.  The term has also been adopted by various institutions, including Immanuel Schools and  Immanuel College ,  and refers to prominent figures such as the philosopher  Immanuel Kant  and the sociologist  Immanuel Wallerstein .   Biblical Significance Origin:   The name comes from the Hebrew "עִמָּנוּאֵל" (Immanu'el), meaning "God with us".   Prophecy:   In the  Book of Isaiah ,  Immanuel is a sign that God will protect the House of David. Fulfillment:   The Gospel of Matthew interprets this as a prophecy of the birth of the Messiah, Jesus. Meaning:   The name is a symbol of God's pr...

Lien

I'm going to investigate getting a lien on my property as a means to pay off my debts, which remain stubbornly high (now at £6,278 on the eve of my next welfare payment). 

Inflation

Food price inflation is on the rise globally as an increased population, coupled with more affluent consumers, raises demand at a time of constricted supply. Highly competitive markets will be the best way to ameliorate this effect. However, we can expect to be entering a period of higher inflation as the easy-money era is over.  I would recommend reading "The Price of Time - The Real Story of Interest" by Edward Chancellor. From Google's AI, Gemini, here is a summary: In  "The Price of Time" , Edward Chancellor argues that a long period of extremely low interest rates, especially in the aftermath of the 2008 financial crisis, has caused significant damage to the global economy. He contends that interest is the  "price of time" —a fundamental mechanism for allocating capital and valuing assets—and when this price is suppressed by central banks, it distorts economic signals and leads to widespread problems. Historical Context and Core Argument Chancello...

Bible

The Bible is THE ONLY BOOK WORTH HAVING! Amen!  I'm sleeping downstairs on the sofa at the moment because my BED had BED BUGS! They appeared during the summer after a stay at Aunt Jen's.  I have warned her to get her bedroom inspected by her local council.  My council have since been and treated my room three times now.  I hope this is the end of IT!

Eventful Day

Today marks the 24th Anniversary of 9-11 . Long May We Remember the events of that tragic day, and forever hold Islamic (and, following the murder of Charlie Kirk, left-wing radical) terrorists to account.

Movies & Music

In these End Times, there is no space for made-up movies. Just facts and, to relax, music! The New Millennium (already delayed by a Generation from MM to 2025) will soon be upon us. Your Redemption Draws Near!

Good News

According to The Jerusalem Post, US President Donald Trump just announced that Israeli-Russian citizen Elizabeth Tsurkov, a Princeton student, was released by Kata'ib Hezbollah on Tuesday evening. 

Three Years

Today is the three-year memorial of the late Queen Elizabeth II.  She derserves a sainthood. It is also three years since the now King Charles II ascended to the throne.  God Save The King! In my family, 8 September marks my step-grandfather 's birthday (George Tones of Hartlepool).  

Anniversary Journey

 The Anniversary Journey (1825-2025) of the Stockton and Darlington Railway (S&DR200), aka Stefan and Daniel Rigby (S&DR), will take place on Saturday, 27 September, starting at Hopetown, Darlington. This railway, the first in the world, arguably started the Industrial Revolution and, following, the massive increase in the use of coal. It is also no coincidence that I was born in 1973 when the first Oil Shock took place, and my brother was born in 1979 during the second Oil Shock. It is no wonder we have both ended up trying to find a solution to Climate Change, God-willing. A4 paper and printers should now be consigned to history!

Yesterday...

 ...was a significant day, marking The End of Summer. Not only was it the memorial of Princess Diana 28 years ago, but this year it also marked 3 months since 31 May 2025 (the end of Week 42 of the 70 Weeks Prophecy). This month, September 2025, is Bible Month.
