Beloved Countrymen - New Year's Thoughts from James Belcher

 By James Belcher

I asked my wife, Anna, to take a few minutes out of one of her few days away from work to do some work for me.  She agreed without shouting or whining.  That's love.   

Having recovered somewhat from the illness and the treatment for the illness, which was worse, I can encourage everyone to cut short any hospital stays and rely upon Ayurvedic and Oriental Medicine instead of putting your money and health at the risk of man-made drugs. 

The wisdom of Nature and thousands of years of medical practice aimed at promoting health will always be superior to our mindless profit-seeking "science".  

Providence Medical Center, supposedly the best such facility in Alaska, sent me home with bedsores, diaper rash, suffering from dehydration, unable to speak, confused, unsteady and unable to walk.  In two months, love and Ayurvedic Medicine and practical knowledge have brought me back to comfort and life. 

Don't trust your loved ones or yourself to the tender mercies of profiteering doctors and hospitals.  If you absolutely must use these facilities, make your stay as brief as possible and have your paperwork ready and signed and witnessed--- telling them your instructions in writing before you are admitted.  

Cover such things as not accepting any vaccinations, requiring or not requiring any extreme measures like ventilators to sustain life, but all reasonable and customary care, etc., etc., etc., according to your own choices.  Don't leave it up to them. 

If you have loved ones in hospitals or long term care units, check on them or arrange for them to be checked on every day by family members or hired caregivers.  If you are looking for a job, or an extra income, advertise these services.  Offer to bring treats to hospitalized or institutionalized patients and keep an eye on them for their friends and family when the friends and family can't be there. 

Get other people who are concerned to organize as Hospital Visitors and let it be known to your community that safeguarding the sick and the elderly while under institutional care is a very real need. 

Lucky for me, my wife became a famous fixture during my long recovery, known for showing up at any time of day or night.  

Even with such vigilence, the care patients receive can be wrong-headed and neglectful, and it can vary radically from doctor to doctor as they go on and off shifts.  

When they were finally forced to discharge me from the hospital, I was in despair and barely alive.  They sent me home with no less than fourteen (14) prescriptions, which my wife wisely didn't fill.  

I am still recuperating and doing physical therapy.  I still have plenty of problems, but I have fun. I have friends. I do normal things again. 
I get the jokes. I can read. I can watch TV. I can pet the dogs. 

People of America, I am speaking now for everyone considered elderly --- you have it in your power to end fluoridation of our drinking water, which binds aluminum, which then ends up as brain lesions in Alzheimer's patients.  You can stop buying products that have aluminum and fluoride in them. You can take the issues to all the politicians.  You can reform patient care, too, and put the real Drug Pushers in jail.  

During my "medical incarceration" I was given a mind-altering drug that is specifically not recommended for patients over 65, Seroquel, which is known to hasten the onset of dementia and which they excuse using as a mild sedative.  What it really does is block the acetyl-choline receptors on your cells, and signals your body to stop producing choline, a major component of your brain, so your brain shrinks and withers. 

Can you imagine any hospital giving this drug to elderly patients as a sedative?  What happened to chamomile and valerian?  What happened to melatonin?  The only answer is that these natural drugs don't cost much and don't make big profits for the syndicate.  

The use of Seroquel in elderly patient populations should be universally outlawed and those giving these prescriptions against the Manufacturer's clearly labeled warnings should be: (1) jailed; (2) fined; and (3) deprived of their ability to write prescriptions for a period of years. 

My wife stopped them from giving me Seroquel and initiated a program to block Seroquel from attaching to my cells, to grow new cells, and restored my choline levels and choline uptake system to normal.  That was just my wife, all on her own, medical establishment be damned.  If she had left me to their care....

It has come to this, when American families must take time out of their lives to enforce sanity on purported professionals.  Don't trust doctors or hospitals.  They are not trustworthy.  You must fend for yourself, watch them like hawks, educate yourselves, and band together against such disservice and these many medical atrocities. 

There are a couple other things much on my mind.  I discuss them with Anna all the time.  

She's making me Hoppin' Johns and cornbread for New Year's Day.  Part of the Belcher family passed through the South on their way West, and brought this tradition along with them. It's a humble dish, said to be lucky, and I know my more distant relatives in Kentucky and Tennessee and the Carolinas are having their share of it this day.  

I haven't forgotten you and the terrible damage caused by Hurricane Helene and the further harm that incompetent and sometimes malevolent government contractors have caused.  We have lawyers that have the State of State franchise and all its incorporated County franchises by the throat.  They aren't supposed to touch private donations or interfere in any help offered to disaster victims and that is firmly made part of the Constitutions that govern their operations. 

We are going to end their pillaging and their interference in the effort to get Tiny Home shelters to those in need. 

And we are going to unleash the power of the pen and the purse in defense of our living people against these gawd-awful corporations. 
Come join us.  It is long overdue.  

Don't expect Donald Trump to save you.  You must act together to restore your lawful government and save yourselves, but to the Southeastern States, I have this to tell you --- you are not forgotten. 
It's taking longer than I like, but you will have the help you need and in the meantime, we have each other and Divine Providence. 

Finally --- though a lot of people have been fed Big Lies their entire lives and have accepted these lies as truth, even as children, there is also something called Big Truths.  

While they endlessly repeat their Big Lies, telling us that we are free when we are enslaved, and telling us that they are here to help us, when they're not, and all the other Big Lies they've told along the way --- all we have to do is keep on repeating the Big Truths. 

Truth like: this country has never been a democracy. 
Truth like: "citizen" means that you owe service to the government. 
Truth like: a State is not a State-of-State.  

There is a quickening in the world which will only increase as more and more people wake up and soon the Tipping Point will come, when all of mankind shakes off its hypnotic stupor and realizes how these politicians and figureheads have assumed powers that were never granted to them, have betrayed our trust, and have unjustly enriched themselves by defrauding us of our birthright inheritance. 

Come join the effort. 

I was a fisherman for many years, a Long Liner fishing captain out of Sitka, Alaska.  I tend to think of this old girl, our unincorporated United States of America, as a three-masted schooner coming up into the wind.  I tend to think of the people who are joining our Assemblies as those rescued at sea, because they have been illegally and immorally trafficked into the jurisdiction of the sea and held under the foreign Law of the Sea by people who have always owed them "good faith service" instead.  

What we've received is deceit and gross self-interest instead.   

Though the sea will always have a part of my heart I recognize the difference between land and sea, and I know that in the end the land must predominate and is fixed, substantial, and reliable in its ways. I know that even in the depths of the sea, the land underlies it.  The Law of the Land must triumph and be upheld, because Nature's Law dictates this. 

I've had my Glory Days, with the sun bleaching my hair and tanning my shoulders, with my eyes scanning far and limitless horizons. When I die, I shall be full of all my life, content, loved, and grateful for it --- all the people I have known, the sights I have seen, and the love and material blessings that have come to me.  Let everyone have as much, and no one can have cause to grieve. 

As we begin the New Year with January Second --- remember that each day is a new year and a blank slate for us to write on.  We can make of it what we will.  Our creative powers are not limited in this endless moment called "Now".  Let your awareness of "now" be increased. Focus on it.  Because the past is a fast-retreating picture in its frame, and the future is not here yet, and is as insubstantial as a dream.  Make it a good dream.  

Finally, I'll share one of my favorite poems with you all, old-fashioned but still true --- the Sixth Canto of The Lay of the Last Minstrel: 

Breathes there the man, with soul so dead,
Who never to himself hath said,
This is my own, my native land!
Whose heart hath ne'er within him burn'd,
As home his footsteps he hath turn'd,
From wandering on a foreign strand!
If such there breathe, go, mark him well;
For him no Minstrel raptures swell;
High though his titles, proud his name,
Boundless his wealth as wish can claim;
Despite those titles, power, and pelf,
The wretch, concentred all in self,
Living, shall forfeit fair renown,
And, doubly dying, shall go down
To the vile dust, from whence he sprung,
Unwept, unhonor'd, and unsung.

Sir Walter Scott knew the fate of traitors, of smug business men intent on their own success at the expense of their country and their countrymen.  Let all those who have promoted the Big Lies be confronted with the Big Truths this year. 

Much love to you all, 
James

New Year's Day Feast of the Circumcision

 Rev. Fr. Leonard Goffine's

The Church's Year

Why is this day so called?

Because the secular year begins with this day, as the Church year begins with the First Sunday in Advent.

What should we do on this day?

An offering of the new year should be made to God, asking His grace that we may spend the year in a holy manner, for the welfare of the soul.

Why do we wish each other a "happy new year"?

Because to do so is an act of Christian love; but this wish should come from the heart, and not merely from worldly politeness, otherwise we would be like the heathens (Mt. 5:47), and receive no other reward than they.

What feast of the Church is celebrated today?

The Feast of the Circumcision of our Lord, Who, for love of us, voluntarily subjected Himself to the painful law of the Old Covenant, that we might be freed from the same.

What was the Circumcision?

It was an external sign of the Old Law, by which the people of that day were numbered among the chosen people of God, as now they become, by baptism, members of the Church of Christ.

What is the signification of Circumcision in the moral or spiritual sense?

It signifies the mortification of the senses, of evil desires, and inclinations. This must be practiced by Christians now, since they have promised it in baptism which would be useless to them without the practice of mortification; just as little as the Jew by exterior Circumcision is a true Jew, just so little is the baptized a true Christian without a virtuous life. Beg of Christ, therefore, today, to give you the grace of the true Circumcision of heart.

PRAYER I thank Thee, O Lord Jesus, because Thou hast shed Thy blood for me in Circumcision, and beg Thee that by Thy precious blood I may receive the grace to circumcise my heart and all my senses, so that I may lead a life of mortification in this world, and attain eternal joys in the next. Amen.

[The INTROIT of the Mass is the same as is said in the Third Mass on Christmas.]

COLLECT O God, Who, by the fruitful virginity of blessed Mary, hast bestowed upon mankind the rewards of eternal salvation; grant, we beseech Thee, that we may feel the benefit of her intercession for us, through whom we have deserved to receive the author of life, our Lord Jesus Christ, Thy Son, who livest and reignest, etc.

[The EPSTLE is the same as is said in the First Mass on Christmas.]

GOSPEL (Lk. 2:21). At that time, after eight days were accomplished that the child should be circumcised, his name was called Jesus, which was called by the angel before he was conceived in the womb.

Why did Jesus submit to Circumcision?

That He might show His great love for us, which caused Him even at the very beginning of His life, to shed His blood to cleanse us thereby from all our sins. Furthermore to teach us obedience to the commandments of God and His Church, since He voluntarily subjected Himself to the Jewish law, although He was not in the least bound by it, which ordered that every male child should be circumcised on the eighth day after its birth (Lev. 12:3).

Why was He named Jesus?

Because Jesus means Redeemer and Savior, and He had come to redeem and save the world (Mt. 1:21). This is the holiest, most venerable, and most powerful name by which we can be saved.

What power has this name?

The greatest power, for it repels all attacks of the evil Spirit, as Jesus Himself says (Mk. 16:17)And so great is the efficacy of this most holy name that even those who are not righteous, can by it expel devils (Mt. 7:22). It has power to cure physical pains and evils, as when used by the apostles (Acts. 3:3-7)and Christ promised that the faithful by using it could do the same (Mk. 16:17)St. Bernard calls the name of Jesus a "Medicine"; and St. Chrysostom says, "This name cures all ills; it gives succor in all the ailments of the soul, in temptations, in faintheartedness, in sorrow, and in all evil desires, etc." "Let him who cannot excite contrition in his heart for the sins he has committed, think of the loving, meek, and suffering Jesus, invoke His holy name with fervor and confidence, and he will feel his heart touched and made better," says St. Lawrence Justinian. It overcomes and dispels the temptations of the enemy: "When we fight against Satan in the name of Jesus," says the martyr St. Justin, "Jesus fights for us, in us, and with us, and the enemies must flee as soon as they hear the name of Jesus." It secures us help and blessings in all corporal and spiritual necessities, because nothing is impossible to him who asks in the name of Jesus, whatever tends to his salvation will be given him (Jn. 14:13). Therefore it is useful above all things, to invoke this holy name in all dangers of body and soul, in doubts, in temptations, especially in temptations against holy chastity, and still more so when one has fallen into sin, from which he desires to be delivered; for this name is like oil (Cant. 1:2) which cures, nourishes, and illumines.

How must this name be pronounced to experience its power?

With lively faith, with steadfast, unshaken confidence, with deep­est reverence and devotion, for in the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of those that are in heaven, on earth, and under the earth (Phil. 2:10). What wickedness, then, is theirs who habitually pronounce this name carelessly and irreverently, upon every occasion! Such a habit is certainly diabolical; for the damned and the devils constantly abuse God and His holy name.

Why does this name so seldom manifest its power in our days?

Because Christian faith is daily becoming weaker, and confidence less, while perfect submission to the will of God is wanting. When faith grows stronger among people, and confidence greater, then will the power of this most sacred name manifest itself in more wonderful and consoling aspects.

PRAYER TO JESUS IN DIFFICULTIES

O Jesus! Consolation of the afflicted! Thy name is indeed poured out like oil; for Thou dost illumine those who sit in darkness and in the shadow of death; Thou dost disperse the blindness of the soul and dost cure its ills; Thou givest food and drink to those who hunger and thirst after justice. Be also, O Jesus! my Savior, the phy­sician of my soul, the healer of its wounds. O Jesus! Succor of those who are in need, be my protector in temptations! O Jesus! Father of the poor, do Thou nourish me! O Jesus! joy of the angels, do Thou comfort me! O Jesus! my only hope and refuge, be my helper in the hour of death, for there is given us no other name beneath the sun by which we may be saved, but Thy most blessed name Jesus!

EXHORTATION St. Paul says: All whatsoever you do in word or in work, all things do ye in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ (Col. 3:17). We should, therefore, follow the example of the saints, and continually say, at least in our hearts: "For love of Thee, O Jesus, I rise; for love of Thee I lie down; for love of Thee I eat, drink, and enjoy myself; for love of Thee I work, speak, or am silent." Thus we will accustom ourselves to do all in the name of Jesus, by which everything is easily or at least meritoriously accomplished.

PRAYER TO BE SAID ON NEW YEAR'S DAY

O God, Heavenly Father of Mercy, God of all Consolation! we thank Thee that from our birth to this day, Thou hast so well pre­served us, and hast protected us in so many dangers; we beseech Thee, through the merits of Thy beloved Son, and by His sacred blood which He shed for us on this day in His circumcision, to for­give all the sins which, during the past year, we have committed against Thy commandments, by which we have aroused Thy indig­nation and wrath against ourselves. Preserve us in the coming year from all sins, and misfortunes of body and soul. Grant that from this day to the end of our lives, all our senses, thoughts, words, and works, which we here dedicate to Thee for all time, may be directed in accordance with Thy will, and that we may finally die in the true Catholic faith, and enjoy with Thee in Thy kingdom a joyful new year, that shall know no end. Amen.
