  • #524 - Trumans Matrix; Are We Twitterpated?
    Proponents of free speech and individual rights are celebrating the Twitter board’s acceptance of Elon Musk’s bid to take Twitter into the private sector. Should the deal close, there is a belief that the platform will be more open to diverse ideas and that rules and moderation will be enacted more consistently across the user base.

    Is he really stepping up as a champion of free speech and digital rights? Or, given this futurist and serial entrepreneur’s scope of projects and interests that sometimes seem ripped from the pages of a sci-fi novel, is there something else going on entirely?

    Musk has talked about the Optimus AI powered robot (also known as the Tesla Bot) in development. He said that he was, “surprised that people did not realize the magnitude of the Optimus robot program,” and that he believed that Optimus would be worth more than the Tesla car business.

    Could there be a link between the data he can mine from Twitter interactions — how people share thoughts and respond to prompts — to further develop the Optimus or other AI?

    Or perhaps there is an opportunity with another one of Musk’s endeavors, Neuralink, which is described as, “Developing ultra high bandwidth brain-machine interfaces to connect humans and computers.” Whether it is customizing user interfaces, providing other relevant data or serving as a model for a brain-connected communication system, there may be synergy here as well.

  • #523 - The Ugly Truth of CPS
    This is not our first report on medical kidnapping. In February, we reported on the kidnapping of Benjamin Gord in Truman’s Matrix and we have cited other reports about kids being taken from their parents. Well now it seems that the hospitals have colluded with CPS to take children from their parents if they don’t go along with their narrative.

    Last month, beginning March 12, 2022, Baby Cyrus Anderson was medically kidnapped in Meridian, ID by St Luke’s Hospital. Marissa and Levi Anderson and their family has been going through some harrowing experiences since then. The adjudicatory hearing has been postponed twice now which gives CPS clearance to show up at any time for an ‘inspection’ or well check.

    Although Cyrus is back with the family, Cyrus is still sick, they don’t have any answers and there are still threats from CPS to take Cyrus away permanently. You can keep up to date on this story here.

    But kidnapping by CPS isn’t a new story. A book written by Child Protective Services Whistleblower, Carlos Morales titled Legally Kidnapped: the Case Against Child Protective Services was written in 2014.

    Morales exposes the dangerous tactics and overt corruption that he witnessed as a CPS investigator. Through keen insight, analysis, war stories, and interviews with attorneys & judges, Carlos Morales speaks truth to power in this shocking book. Unlike anything ever published, he breaks down exactly what families should do to protect themselves from this monolithic agency that has destroyed the lives of children & parents. Parents across the country have already used his legal recommendations and saved not only thousands of dollars on lawyer fees, but also protected the future of their family. It is imperative that people understand Child Protective Services in order to save their families, and this book accomplishes that in a gripping and thought provoking manner.

    Public response through protests and phone calls to the hospital led to Baby Cyrus’ release back to his parents, but now we have a new case.

  • #520 - Can You Still Trust God? Day 5
    Your relationship with God is not based upon your good deeds. It is not based upon your offering of a blood sacrifice at a designated shrine, your doing a series of charitable acts of kindness, or your belonging to a particular denomination. It is not based upon anything that you produce, achieve, or earn.


    Rather, your relationship with God is based upon belief—your believing that Jesus Christ is God’s Son come in the flesh and that Jesus Christ is Lord.


    Behavior is the substance of religion. Belief is the substance of this relationship.


    You don’t have to wonder if you have done enough to get good enough for God. You can say, “I believe in You, God, as the Giver of life. I believe in what Jesus did on the cross to give me life abundant and life forever. I accept Your plan!”


    So many people I know live under a terrible cloud of “I hope I’ve done enough to please God.” They hope they’ve read enough of the Bible and prayed enough. They hope God will forgive them. They hope they’ll be considered worthy of heaven.


    Such hope isn’t true hope.


    True hope lies in saying, “Thank You, God, for saving me! Thank You for loving me! Thank You for Jesus Christ and what He did for me on the cross! Thank You for giving me Your Holy Spirit to guide me and comfort me!” Be very clear in your spirit on this point: your behavior and the state of your soul are two distinct things in God’s eyes. Once you have accepted Jesus Christ as your Savior and have accepted God’s love and forgiveness, you are His eternally. There is nothing that can separate you from Him.


    Your relationship with God is based upon what Jesus has done, not what you have done, do now, or will do. Your relationship is solely based upon what Jesus did on the cross. You may make mistakes, but Jesus does not. You may be imperfect, but He is perfect. God’s forgiveness is based upon His plan that has been fulfilled through Christ Jesus.

  • #519 - Can You Still Trust God? Day 4
    I have seen men and women emerge from far less strenuous circumstances than the apostle Paul's, full of anger and hostility. They were mad at God for what He did to them. But not Paul. Why? Because he recognized that what God allowed to be done to him was simply preparation for what He wanted to do for him. As Paul grew more and more dependent upon the Lord for strength, it became second nature to him. His faith in Christ grew to the point that he could say with all sincerity, “I am well content with weaknesses.”


    The whole idea of being content with weakness contradicts the messages society sends us. In an age characterized by so many striving for power and control, it is unusual for people to get very excited about living in a state of weakness. But upon examining the life of the apostle Paul, one hardly gets the impression that he was a weak man. On the contrary, he debated against Christ’s apostles over the question of Gentile salvation, and he won! He spent his life preaching in the most hostile of circumstances. He planted churches throughout the major cities of Asia Minor and in the port cities along the Aegean Sea. Paul trained the first pastors and elders of these early congregations. And to top it all off, he wrote half of the New Testament!


    I don’t know what you think, but that certainly doesn’t sound like a weak man to me. If Paul had been a businessman, he would have been extremely successful. He knew how to set goals and accomplish them. He understood the principles involved in motivating people. He was a mover and a shaker.


    So how do we reconcile Paul’s claim to weakness with his amazing accomplishments? Simple. The answer is in the phrase “when I am weak, then I am strong.” A paraphrase of his comment would go something like this: “When I, Paul, in and of my own strength, am weak, then I, Paul, relying on the power of Christ in me, become strong, capable of whatever the Lord requires of me, full of energy and zeal to accomplish His will.”

    Can You Still Trust God?

    You cannot predict tomorrow. You cannot fully prepare for all contingencies. You cannot fully provide for all you’ll need in your future. God not only can, He already has! God is never caught off guard. He is never taken by surprise. He never comes up short. So you do not have to live with anxiety about the future. The peace-filled heart is the one that recognizes, “My times are in His hands.”


    God desires that we view our troubles, whether present concerns or those looming in the future, from His perspective. We are not to deny them or seek to escape them, but rather to regard them as trials and tribulations that we must overcome.


    God never expects us to put up with constant anxiety. He intends for us to confront those situations that make us anxious, to face up to the anxiety we have allowed to fill our hearts, and to come to grips with the agitation we feel inside. He intends for us to resist the tendency to worry or become fearful and to refuse to lay down our peace no matter what the devil sends our way.


    I don’t know that a person ever becomes immune to anxiety. But I am confident of this: It would take a lot to make me anxious now. When I look back over my life, I realize that things that once upset me don’t bother me as much now. Things that once caused me to feel anxious don’t cause anxiety now. I also know that the more a person trusts God to meet his deep inner needs, the more his faith is going to grow, and the quicker he will be able to trust the Lord in all situations. I encourage you today to do these things:


    • Refuse to allow anxiety to become a “state of being” in your life.


    • Believe God when He says you are worthy of His constant care.


    • Yield total control of every area of your life to God.


    • Refuse to be caught up in what others think of you.


    • Refuse to be trapped into operating according to the world’s systems.


    • Get your priorities in line with God’s priorities for you.


    • Choose to live in today, not tomorrow.


    And you will find yourself living with a growing, deep inner peace, free from fear and anxiety.

  • #517 - Can You Still Trust God? Day 2
    Would you say that yours is a holy life and that you are walking in obedience to God? If not, you may have yielded to some satanic attack, believed the devil’s lie, and given yourself over to him in some way. What may have seemed like an innocent temptation at first can eventually exert a viselike grip on you. Christians are to be under God’s control, but the enemy ultimately wants you under his influence, and he will do his best to destroy everything good in your life. Satan’s objectives are very clear, namely, to draw believers away from God and cheat the Lord out of the glory He deserves. As long as the devil is around, we will suffer his assaults, so the question is not how to avoid satanic attacks, but how to overcome them.


    Paul laid out the battle plan in the sixth chapter of Ephesians. First, we must identify the enemy (vv. 11–12); second, we are to dress in the full armor of God and stand firm (vv. 13–17). The next verse reveals the key to withstanding Satan’s attacks: we must appropriate the strength of the living God. How do we get His power into our lives, to be unleashed in any and every circumstance? There is only one way: by prayer (v. 18).


    It is through prayer that the Lord releases His energy, divine power, and protection, enabling us to live a godly, holy, and peaceful life regardless of our circumstances. It is only through prayer that our minds and spirits can discern what the average person cannot detect. Only through prayer can we sense forewarnings of Satan’s attacks, which can be aimed anywhere—finances, family, relationships, or health. The one thing Satan hates above all else is the believer who knows how to persist in prayer and claim the promises of God. The enemy has no defense against persevering prayer, which crushes his might and sends him running. On the other hand, when we do not pray, we set ourselves up for defeat.

    11Put on the full armor of God, so that you can take your stand against the devil’s schemes. 12For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms. 13Therefore put on the full armor of God, so that when the day of evil comes, you may be able to stand your ground, and after you have done everything, to stand. 14Stand firm then, with the belt of truth buckled around your waist, with the breastplate of righteousness in place, 15and with your feet fitted with the readiness that comes from the gospel of peace. 16In addition to all this, take up the shield of faith, with which you can extinguish all the flaming arrows of the evil one. 17Take the helmet of salvation and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God.
    18And pray in the Spirit on all occasions with all kinds of prayers and requests. With this in mind, be alert and always keep on praying for all the Lord’s people.
