One of things that I found particularly interesting in the second half of the book involving Marji's teen and young adult years was her relationship with God.
We talked a lot in class about Marji's childhood relationship to God, and how amongst other things it had a certain level of naiveté to it; with God seeming more an imaginary friend than religious icon. We also talked about her blending of religion with politics, which I think was probably an accurate assessment for someone to adapt in a theocratic country. What interested me more however, was Marji's divergence from the God of her childhood. Why did she leave him behind? Did her countries continuing totalitarian Islamic theocracy make her viewpoint of God change? Did she begin to associate religion and God with a suppression of freedom?
I searched for answers to these questions in the second part and came to a conclusion, albeit it may not be right, that Marji associates her religion with her country. Subjected to religious politics her entire life, when she left the restrictions of Iran behind, she left God there as well, and the only time he appears in the second half as the image of her childhood, she utilizes her mother to speak to him, as if not being in Iran she does not have the right to contact him directly. When she again addresses him directly on page 283, she is back in Iran. Although his image doesn't actually appear, just her prayer to him, this could possibly be related to a more mature relationship with God as her creator, and not so much imaginary friend.

The present application is a continuation-in-part of copending application Ser. No. 08/357,702 filed Dec. 16, 1994.
This invention relates to a roof vent for use in building construction, and to a method of making such a vent. More particularly, this invention relates to a rolled roof vent for enhancing the circulation of air in the space between a roof and the underlying ceiling structure, and to a method of making such a vent by sequentially thermoforming sections into a roll of indeterminate length.
It is useful, and in many locales a building code requirement, that the attic area of a building be provided with a means to permit air exchange. Such ventilation prevents undue heat buildup, which can render the living quarters of the building uncomfortable and impose unreasonable energy requirements for cooling. Proper ventilation of the attic area also tends to preserve the structural integrity of the roof and roof coverings. To accomplish the desired circulation in roof constructions, venting means have been provided in the upper region of the attic area.
It has long been a conventional practice to employ sheet metal vents in and spaced along the peak of a roof, alone or in conjunction with vents in the side walls of the building. In roofs of any substantial length, it is common practice to install one or more sheet metal vents, and not uncommon to provide a powered fan assist to improve air circulation. These means involve a considerable expense, not only for the vents themselves, but in the labor costs incident to their installation.
These shortcomings have been previously recognized. In U.S. Pat. No. 4,280,399, for example, a corrugated roof vent was proposed. This vent extends lengthwise of and is secured to the portions of the roof near the peak. Cap shingles are then secured in place, spaced above the roof portions. Air is thus vented from the attic area through spacing provided by the vent.
In U.S. Pat. No. 4,942,699, assigned to the assignee of the present invention, an improved vent was disclosed in which an opening along the peak of a roof is covered by a matting, or matrix, of randomly convoluted polymeric filaments, heat bonded to a porous sheet material layer. Such a vent permits the flow of ventilating air through the opening and from beneath a row of cap shingles placed on the vent, and can be provided in roll form, for ready installation in any desired length.
U.S. Pat. No. 5,174,076 discloses a roof vent fabricated from a discrete length of injection molded plastic material. While this vent product may provide adequate venting, it suffers from the limitation that, being injection molded, it cannot be fabricated in an indeterminate length suitable for a continuously rolled product. A rolled vent is desirable because it facilitates installation since the vent need merely be unrolled, fastened and cut to length. Another limitation is the cost of manufacturing the injection molded product.
Other ridge cap vents are disclosed in the following U.S. Pat. Nos. 4,280,399; 4,876,950; 5,094,041; 5,167,579; 5,425,672 and published Great Britain Application 2186898A. An example of non-woven filter material is disclosed in U.S. Pat. No. 4,701,197.
While the products disclosed in the above-mentioned patents may function satisfactorily under certain circumstances, there is a need for a roof vent which can be manufactured efficiently by conventional thermoforming molding equipment and formed into a roll for shipping and subsequent installation.
With the foregoing in mind, it is an object of this invention to provide an effective and economical vent for a building, and a method of making such a vent.
Another object of this invention is to provide a thermoformed air transfer roof vent capable of preventing the entry into the building of water, blowing snow, insects and other foreign matter.
Another object of this invention is to provide a compression-resistant, air-permeable air transfer roof vent, which may be made readily in a continuous form with a thermoforming or vacuum forming apparatus, and may be supplied to installers and users in roll form for convenient and easy installation.
A further object of this invention is to attain the foregoing ends in a manner requiring labor skills possessed by the average roof installer.
More specifically, the present invention provides a roof vent, comprising: a continuous, indeterminate-length rolled web composed of a series of sequentially-thermoformed integral longitudinal sections of thermoformable material. Each section has a plurality of incompressible spacer elements projecting in spaced relation from the web for spacing the web from the roof when installed thereon. The elements are separated from one another lengthwise along the web to permit the web to be rolled lengthwise into a spiral roll during manufacture and unrolled lengthwise during installation. The elements are hollow and integral with the web, and they have a wall thickness which is thinner than said web as a result of having been drawn therefrom during thermoforming. Preferably, screening is interposed among the spacer elements lengthwise of the web on opposite sides of its longitudinal median to prevent ingress of foreign objects.
When installed, the vent spaces a cap (such as a ridge cap) from the roof surface to provide a venting flow path for air between the interior of the building and the ambient atmosphere. The present vent is characterized by thermoformed projections and screening or baffles which provide multiple flow paths through the vent. The vent is self-supporting and has a composite strength in compression sufficient to support an overlying cap. It is sequentially thermoformed in an in-line operation using commercially-available apparatus.
The geometry of the vent, particularly the disposition, number and dimensions of its projections, screening and baffles, determines the overall air permeability of the vent. The integral baffles and screening provide a weather barrier and a barrier to insects and foreign matter. The projections and baffles can be staggered or otherwise so oriented that they absorb the energy of incoming water. Thus, the projections, baffles and screening prevents wind-driven rain and snow, and insects and other foreign matter, from entering the building through the vent.
The foregoing and other objects, features, and advantages of the invention should become apparent from the following description taken in conjunction with the following drawings in which:
FIG. 1 is a sectional view transverse to a roof ridge line illustrating a rolled ridge vent embodying the invention installed on a roof;
FIG. 2 is a perspective view of a rolled roof vent embodying the present invention;

FIG. 6 is a fragmentary pictorial view, showing a portion of a modified embodiment of a roof vent in accordance with the present invention;
FIG. 7 is a partial cross-sectional view, taken along line 7--7 in FIG. 6;
FIG. 8 is a partial cross-sectional view, taken along line 8--8 of FIG. 6;
FIG. 9 is a top plan view of an alternative form of a roof vent embodying the present invention;
FIG. 10 is a view similar to FIG. 8, but showing an alternative form of a vent in accordance with the present invention;
FIG. 11 is a view similar to FIG. 6, but illustrating a further modified embodiment of the invention;
FIG. 12 is a fragmentary view of a portion of the vent illustrated in FIG. 11; and
FIG. 13 is a fragmentary perspective view of a modified spacer element.
Referring now to the drawings, FIG. 1 illustrates a roof, designated generally by the reference numeral 10, comprising a plurality of rafters 12, conventionally supported at their lower ends by the front and rear walls of the building. The upper ends of the rafters 12 meet at, and may be attached to, a ridge pole 14, which extends between the end walls of the building.
The roof deck 18, typically comprising plywood or other suitable panels, make up the outer sheathing of the building. The roof deck 18 is secured to the rafters 12 and extends to the end walls.
Shingles 20 may be nailed to the roof deck 18 to finish the sloping portions of the roof in accordance with conventional construction practices. Conventional cap shingles 22 may then be installed in overlapping fashion to cover the peak of the roof, above the ridge pole 14.
A slot 26 is provided along the length of the peak of the exemplary roof construction 10 to provide a passageway for venting air between the underlying attic area and the ambient atmosphere. The ends of the slot 26 are spaced from the opposite ends of peak, as seen in FIG. 1. This spacing may typically be on the order of six inches.
In accordance with the present invention, as will be more fully discussed, a vent designated generally by the reference V is interposed between the cap shingles 22 and the underlying portions of the roof construction 10.
Still referring to FIG. 1, the vent V has a web 1 with a longitudinal medial hinge 2 which divides the web 1 lengthwise into a pair of identical portions 1a and 1b capable of being disposed at a dihedral angle relative to one another. Each web portion, such as the web portion 1a, has a plurality of frusto-conical spacer elements 3,4,5,6 disposed in parallel longitudinal rows A,B,C,D, extending along the lengthwise edge margins of the web portions. See FIG. 2. The spacer elements in adjacent rows are offset longitudinally relative to one another so that, for example, a spacer element 4 in row B is located intermediate a pair of spacer elements 3 and 3a in row A. A continuous length of screening material 9 is captured between the spacer elements in rows A and B. The screening material permits air to flow outwardly in the manner illustrated by the arrows while preventing flying insects, rain, snow, and blowing foreign objects from entering in the opposite direction. Preferably, the screening material 9 is of spun-bonded non-woven fabric, but it could also be formed of needle-punched, non-woven plastic or metal mesh screen or like structure providing air permeability through small spaces.
The spacer elements 3-6 are designed to resist compression during and after installation while affording ready rolling and unrolling during manufacture and installation. To this end, each spacer element, such as the spacer element 3 (FIG. 3) has a continuous frusto-conical wall formed integral with the web 1 and projecting transversely from the plane of the web. As will be described, the spacer element 3 is thermoformed integral with the web so that, as a result of thermoforming, it has an end wall thickness t1 which is about 1/2 the wall thickness t2 of the web 1. Each spacer element is provided with a series of recessed ribs 7a, 7b, disposed at spaced peripheral locations and extending longitudinally of each spacer element wall. In the illustrated embodiment, four such reinforcing recesses are shown spaced apart at 90� included angles relative to one another and extending from a larger base located adjacent the plane of the web 1 to a tapered tip located at about the transverse median of the spacer element. The recesses help to stiffen the wall of the spacer element, which, it is noted becomes thinner as it proceeds away from the plane of the web 1. The number of reinforcing ribs is not critical, but they are preferably disposed symmetrically.
By way of example, and not by way of limitation, each spacer element has a length of about 7/8 inch, a base diameter at the plane of the web of about 1/2 inch, and an end wall diameter of about 3/8 inch. The spacer elements are located on about 13/8 inch centers in their rows, and the rows are located on about 7/8 inch centers. The web thickness t2 in FIG. 3 is about 0.045 inches, and the spacer element end wall thickness t1 is about 0.015 inches, or about 1/3 the thickness of the web. These dimensional relations have proven to provide the desired degree of compressive strength and longitudinal flexibility required to form the vent into a roll, as seen in FIG. 1.
The vent V is manufactured efficiently by means of a novel process. To the end, as best seen schematically in FIG. 5, the web 1 is unrolled from a planar storage roll R1 and fed longitudinally into a preheat station Pi and then into a thermoform die assembly D1, D2 which cooperates to draw the spacer elements from the plane of the web with the application of negative pressure and heat. Preferably, the die assembly is about 4 feet in length. After one longitudinal section the vent V has been thus thermoformed, it is ejected from the die assembly and passed through a cooling station S1 and then advanced lengthwise a predetermined distance corresponding to the length of the die assembly at which time the lengthwise adjacent section of the web is thermoformed in sequence. This process is repeated to form a continuous length vent V.
The screening 9 is applied in a continuous manner downstream of the thermoforming dies D1, D2. To this end, a bead of suitable adhesive is applied to the topside of the web 1 by an applicator A, and screening is unrolled from a storage roll R2 and pressed into position against the web 1 by opposing pressure rollers P1, P2. Thermal energy, ultrasonic welding or infrared bonding can also be used to bond the screening to the vent.
The sequentially-thermoformed vent V is rolled into a spiral roll R3 of a predetermined diameter, before being cut, and bound for shipping and installation.
Installation is straightforward. After delivery to the construction site, the vent is disposed with its spacer elements facing downward, as shown in FIG. 1, and with its two portions 1a and 1b angulated as shown. The vent V is then nailed in place, after which the roof caps are applied onto it. The vent is preferably cut to the required length of the roof ridge after having been mounted in place. Thermoformed end caps are used to seal the gable ends of the vent and nailed in place during application of the roof caps.
Referring now to FIGS. 6, 7, and 8, another example of a vent 24 is shown in detail. Like the previously described embodiment, it comprises a backing, or web 28, from which there project a series of projections 30.
As with the most preferred embodiment of FIGS. 1-4, each of the projections 30 is hollow and their walls become thinner remote from the web from which they are drawn during thermoforming, although the cross-sections of FIGS. 8 and 10 show constant wall thickness for ease of illustration.
The vent V is self-supporting yet flexible, and has sufficient strength in compression to resist crushing during installation and use and to support the cap shingles 22 or other building elements which overlie the vent when the vent installed.
In the presently preferred forms of the invention, the vents are composed of a web of either high impact polystyrene ("HIPS"); or ABS; or high-density polyethylene (HDPE); or high density polypropylene (HDPP); or PVC; or a blend of any of these suitable polymers shaped preferably by thermoforming, vacuum stamping or other suitable techniques. Other suitable materials can be used. In general, to meet the above-mentioned and other performance criteria, the vent should be made of a tough, compression resistant yet rollable material. Polymers other than those mentioned above, for example, nylon or polyester, could be used.
Referring again to FIGS. 6-8 and also to FIG. 1, the vent is formed from an elongate strip, or web of sheet material, typically of about 0.040 to about 0.050, and preferably about 0.045 inches, in thickness. The selected thickness will vary depending upon the characteristics of the particular material used. The vent is formed, preferably by the above-mentioned longitudinal sectional thermoforming process, so as to have a series of projections 30, projecting from the plane of the web 28. The projections 30 have respective distal end portions 32 and curved side walls 34 and 36.
The projections 30 are arranged, in the illustrated form of the invention, in parallel rows "A", "B", "C", etc., extending in one dimension of the base 28. Also projecting from the base 28, and parallel to the rows of projections 30, are blade-like ridges, or baffles, 38. The ridges 38 have respective distal end walls 40 and side walls 42, and in the illustrated form of the invention have slots 44 (seen in FIGS. 6-8) in their end walls 40 and side walls 42.
Referring to FIG. 8, it will be seen that the base 28 from which the projections 30 and ridges 38 project, defines, in a sense, a first face 48, while the distal end portions 32 of the projections 30 and end walls 40 of the ridges 38 may be taken to define a plane providing a second face, depicted in FIG. 8 and designated by the reference numeral 50, spaced from the first face 48.
In the exemplary arrangement shown in FIGS. 6-8, the projections 30 and ridges 38 are approximately 7/8 inch high. The projections 30 are lenticular in cross-section, so as to direct air exiting from the side of the vent into curvilinear paths, and are approximately 1.6 inches in width. The ridges 38 are spaced from the edges of the projections 30 by about 1/4 inch, and the ridges are 1/2 inch wide. The slots 44 are about 1/4 inch wide and spaced from one-another along the ridges by about 1/8 inch. Other dimensions can of course be used.
When assembled as described below, the vent 24 in association with the cap shingles 22 permits the flow of air through the openings provided by the slots 46, as with the FIG. 1-4 embodiment, while the projections 30 act as baffles, preventing wind driven precipitation and foreign matter from reaching and penetrating the slot 26.
The projections 30 can have a variety of arrangements or configurations. The projections 30 may be formed in staggered rows, for example, or disposed in curvilinear patterns, to absorb the energy of incoming water. The projections 30 can also be angled with respect to one-another to form Z-configurations (when seen in plan view). Other configurations and arrangements of the projections 30 and ridges 38 may, of course, occur to those skilled in the art. One such alternative arrangement, utilizing projections 30' of varying sizes and cross-sections, and discontinuous ridges 38', is shown in FIG. 9. Alternatively, if weather conditions do not require it or a fabric overwrap is used (as described below), the ridges 38' may be replaced with a row of cones 38" (FIG. 13), or pyramid shapes, projecting from web 28", to increase structural rigidity of the vent. See FIGS. 9-13.
FIGS. 11-13 illustrate another alternate embodiment of a roof vent, in which elements corresponding to those previously described are designated by like, prime ('), reference numerals. In this embodiment, there are provided on the vent web 24', in addition to the above-mentioned hinge 52, an outboard pair of hinges 64 and 66. Defined between the hinges 64 and 66 is a panel or flange 68, and outboard of the panel or flange, 68 is a distal panel 70. The panel 68 is perforated by a series of apertures 72. As is perhaps best seen in FIG. 12, the panel 68 and distal panel 70, which together form an edge of the vent 24, are folded over by means of the respective hinges 64 and 66, and the distal panel 70 secured to the end portions 32' of the projections 30' by suitable mechanical (such as thermal bonding, ultrasonic welding, or other means) or adhesive means, as indicated at 74. The panel 68 and distal panel ultrasonic welding or other means 70 thus create, in effect, an integral "C"-channel, increasing the structural rigidity of the vent 24' while providing an integral baffle system.
It should be noted that inboard baffles, such as the ridges 38, can be formed in a manner similar to the above. In other words, three parallel hinges (not shown) could be molded between rows of projections, the material punched, in the manner of the openings 72 in the panel 68, and the material folded back upon itself to form a blade-like ridge.
The vent V, and vent 24, may be provided with an integrally molded hinge, such as the exemplary hinge 52 to facilitate conformity of the vent to a roof peak or other changes in building planes, and to accommodate dimensional changes due to thermal expansion and contraction after installation of the vent. The vent may also be provided with expansion accommodating discontinuities, such as the discontinuties 53 shown in association with vent 24 (FIG. 6) at periodic intervals along its length. In one presently preferred form of the invention, such discontinuities 53 are molded into the base web 28' of the vent at intervals of about every five (5) to six (6) inches of running length. It is desirable to compensate for thermal expansion and contraction in the range of -40� to 160� F. It is preferred for reasons of UV durability that the vent 24 be black, but other colors can obviously be used.
Desirable properties and characteristics of a suitable vent 24, in a presently preferred form of the invention, also include the following: substantial ultraviolet stability (e.g., for 40 years outdoor exposure); substantial tear strength (in excess of 150 psi); cold impact resistance; compression resistance, preferably above about 30 pounds/square inch; a self-ignition temperature of at least 650� F.
In the embodiment of the invention shown in FIG. 10, a fabric wrap 51 overlies the first face 48 of the vent 24, and is wrapped around and covers side edges of the vent 24. The fabric of the wrap 51 is air permeable, to permit substantially free flow of air into the vent 24, around the projections 30 and ridges 38. The fabric of the wrap 51 also provides an additional barrier against water, snow, insects and other foreign matter. A variety of fabrics may be used for the wrap 51. Such fabrics desirably provide long-term UV stability as well as the above-described properties. One suitable fabric is the spunbonded nonwoven fabric sold by BASF Corporation, under the trademark "Colback", grade S-100.
When a wrap-equipped vent 24 is installed, the wrap 51 overlies the slot 26, thus providing a primary barrier for preventing entry of insects or other unwanted matter into the attic area. The wrap 51 is preferably secured to the vent 24 by thermal bonding 55. Alternatively, adhesive may be used. If used, the adhesive is preferably of the rubber-based or acrylic hot melt type. The bonding or adhesive should preferably permit release of the sheet material layer 30 by hand pressure without causing tears in that material.
While the wrap 51 is permeable to air, as is necessary for its venting function, it is also intended that it present a barrier to liquid flow. It is therefore preferred that the wrap 51 be non-wicking, and preferably, hydrophobic. Thus, the tendency of water or water vapor to be drawn into the area of the slot 26, where it could enter the attic or become a source of high humidity capable of damaging the wooden components of the roof, is eliminated.
The combined vent 24 and wrap 51 should, preferably, have self-ignition temperature not substantially below 650� F.
Referring again to FIG. 5, the web material, usually supplied in roll form, is heated to a temperature at which it can be formed. The heated web material is then advanced to a trimming operation (not shown), at which slots may be made and, if necessary, the vent can be trimmed to a desired width. The thus formed vent may then be taken up for storage or shipment in indeterminate lengths, in roll form.
In making the vent 24', the forming operation 58 is performed as above, but in addition, the outboard hinges 64 and 66 are made in the forming operation 58. Punching or another suitable step may be used to make the openings 72. Punching may be associated with the trimming step 60, or may be done as a separate and additional step.
The foregoing steps may be accomplished using commercially available machinery, such as the continuous and cut sheet thermoforming machinery sold under the trademark "BROWN", by John Brown Co. The operations may be controlled, in a known manner, using conventional techniques, including, if desired, computer controls.
It should now be apparent that the above described vent V, spaces the cap shingles 22 above the underlying shingles 20 to provide a venting passageway for the flow of air from the slot 26. The vent V is compression resistant. Thus, the vent V can be nailed to a roof deck 18 (as shown in FIG. 1) without the need for delicate handling or special care.
The material from which the vent V is fabricated should ideally be highly resistant to degradation in an outdoor environment over wide ranges of temperature and humidity.
As has been explained, the vent V, in accordance with the invention may be formed in indeterminate "running lengths". The vent V thus fabricated, is sufficiently flexible in the direction of its running length to readily be coiled in rolls, as is illustrated by the exemplary roll 64 seen in FIG. 2. Providing the vent V in roll form facilitates storage, transportation and installation. Heretofore known molded or thermoformed vent elements have been provided in relatively short sections, not roll form, and thus lack the advantages of the present invention.
Installation of the vent V involves labor costs only slightly greater than those required for the conventional installation of cap shingles. Such costs represent a saving over the installation of conventional roof vents of the type which provide a localized venting flow at points spaced along the length of the peak of the roof, and over vents which are provided in sections, rather than rolls.
Installation may be accomplished generally in the manner described in the above-mentioned U.S. Pat. No. 4,942,600, assigned to the assignee of the present invention (which description is incorporated herein by reference).
It should also be appreciated that venting of building roofs may be required or desired other than at the peak of two sloping roof portions as illustrated. Thus, the present vent V may be installed to space, for example, a cap type shingle or flashing from an angled roof portion which joins a vertical building wall. The vent V may also be used for openings in building structures other than roofs.
It should be understood that the present invention may be embodied in other specific forms without departing from its spirit or essential attributes. Accordingly, reference should be made to the appended claims, rather than to the foregoing specification, for an indication of the scope of the invention.

A Chat with Captured By Cindy O
What services does your business offer and what makes your business stand out from the competition?
The eye of our editor. Only taking the best moments: the smiles, laughter, and silly faces, leaving purely uplifting memories.
What was the inspiration to start or run this business?
Needing a creative outlet! After years of travel, dance, and theater, my eyes craved to pull out the art and good in everyday life.
What do you love most about your job?
It's my small way of capturing the light in this world and sharing it… each step of the process makes me smile. I can't help but smile right now.
What is the best reaction you've ever gotten from a customer?
When they say they stayed up all night watching their video over and over, waking up family to join them. That was from an older couple you'd never expect to break curfew!

Everything was fine fourteen years after she left New York.
Until suddenly, one day, it wasn't.
Emily Morris got her happily-ever-after earlier than most. Married at a young age to a man she loved passionately, she was building the life she always wanted. But when enormous stress threatened her marriage, Emily made some rash decisions. That's when she fell in love with someone else. That's when she got pregnant.
Resolved to tell her husband of the affair and to leave him for the father of her child, Emily's plans are thwarted when the world is suddenly split open on 9/11. It's amid terrible tragedy that she finds her freedom, as she leaves New York City to start a new life. It's not easy, but Emily---now Connie Prynne—forges a new happily-ever-after in California. But when a life-threatening diagnosis upends her life, she is forced to rethink her life for the good of her thirteen-year-old daughter.
A riveting debut in which a woman must confront her own past in order to secure the future of her daughter, Kim Hooper's People Who Knew Me asks: "What would you do?"

This past Sunday I explained how Jesus' prophecy of the abomination of desolation and the great tribulation were fulfilled in AD 70 with the destruction of the temple.
For those who are interested, there are two excellent sources.
Bob Burridge of the Genevan Institute for Reformed Studies (GIRS) has written a concise paper the adequately deals with nearly all of the issues involved in interpreting Matthew 24. Here is a link to his page:
Brian Schwertley has also written an excellent paper, or rather, an excellent book. It is a 95 page pdf. In this paper, Brian leaves no stone unturned. Every phrase is chased down. Every concept is cross-referenced. And above it all, Brian lets Scripture speak for Scripture. If you have the time, this needs to be read.
There are three Lessons (at least) that we need to learn from the fulfillment of Christ's prophecy regarding the Abomination of Desolation and the Great Tribulation.
- First, we need to recognize that prophecy is always a Call to faithfulness in the church.
When we consider the OT prophets and what their role was in redemptive history, we see that their concern was to call God's people to covenant faithfulness. For example, when Daniel delivered the prophecies concerning the abomination of desolation, he was writing in a time when the people were in exile and questions abounded about whether they would ever return home. So the call to covenant faithfulness was also an encouragement to continue trusting in the fact that God was a covenant keeping God.
In Revelation's 7 letters, we have this same principle being applied to the NT covenant people, the church.
The implicit warning was that if the local church did not remain faithful and obedient to God's Word then they would go the same route of the OT people of God. They would become a synagogue of Satan and God would remove their candlestick, i.e. their place as a True Church.
Therefore, even this prophecy concerning the abomination of desolation and the great tribulation, even though they have been fulfilled, is a call to faithfulness. If any particular church doesn't remain faithful and obedient to God's Word, we should expect God to close it down because it has become a synagogue of Satan.
This is why truth/doctrine is so important. Often times, the only difference between the synagogue of Satan and the True Church is doctrinal profession. Many churches which were once part of the True Church are now satanic synagogues, yet they do a lot of socially good things. [I am purposefully avoiding saying that they do good works, because 'Good Works' are done in obedience, faith and to God's glory, which the Satanic synagogues can't do. See the Heidelberg Catechism #91] A church's faithfulness is not determined by what social deeds it performs, or by the programs it offers, but by the truth/doctrine it proclaims. Social works and social programs don't conform or change people to the image of Christ, but only the Word of God by the power of the Holy Spirit. This is why it is dangerous to choose a church based on what they are doing or what they offer.
So at GCC, we are going to continue studying truth and proclaiming truth. Jesus even prayed in his high priestly prayer, John 17:17, "Sanctify them in Truth. Your Word is truth." So a church that deviates from the Word of God ceases to be a part of the True Church and instead becomes part of the synagogue of Satan.
- The second lesson we need to learn is the Cost of Discipleship.
The disciples of Jesus had to be prepared with God's word to act obediently when the time came. And, in order for them to be obedient, they had to be more concerned with faithfulness and love to Jesus, than with materialism and the love for worldly things.
Jesus said in Matt 24:17, when you see the desolation, "Let the one who is on the housetop not go down to take what is in his house." What is more important, believing and acting upon God's Word, or your material belongings? This seems like such an easy principle to learn, yet because of the sinful remnant, the old man is still set on the things of the World and not on the things of God. Therefore, in order to be prepared to obey, when the cost of obedience is the materials of this world, only a heart that loves Christ more will be able to obey.
There are so many ways this could be applied today, but I have to leave it at that.
- The third lesson we need to learn is the care of the Savior.
Jesus is speaking truth to his disciples in order to prepare them for what was coming. He tells them in Matthew 24:16, when you see the desolation, "then let those who are in Judea flee to the mountains."
The common sense of the day was to flee into the fortified city. There was protection, water and some amount of food. And Jerusalem had proved itself to be a city that could support those within her for an extended period of time. When you couple the strategic abilities of Jerusalem with the religious arguments, the idea of fleeing away from Jerusalem would have been foolishness.
The religious argument being put forward was that Jerusalem was the place where God had set his name. Therefore, God would not allow the city to be destroyed. This was even the disciple's expectation and understanding of the Messiah before Jesus opened their eyes to understand God's plan of salvation!
But Jesus said when you see the desolation flee. Some people have argued, if the desolation is going to surround Jerusalem, how can the Christians be obedient and flee? Historically, and for reasons we will never know, the Roman Army pulled back for a time. They marched on Jerusalem, and then the retreated. Historians tell us that during that brief interlude and retreat, the Christians wholesale abandoned the city so that not a single Christian was left there.
Christians have a Great Shepherd who know everything, including what is best for us. Though his council is often directly contrary to the wisdom of the world, He is always right. And because He cares for the good of his people, He sometimes even delays and withholds his wrath from people who certainly deserve it.
This is the very meaning of Matthew 24:22, "And if those days had not been cut short, no human being would be saved. But for the sake of the elect those days will be cut short."
God's wrath was delayed because evidently, there were still some of God's elect among the city's population. Though the Christians had left, God would use the events of this devastation to bring His elect to himself. Josephus records that over 1 million Jews were killed. The wrath of God fell on them, yet because of the love and care of Jesus for his people, not only was the church protected, but even the unregenerate elect were saved.
So in the prophecy of the Abomination and the Great Tribulation, there is a great warning and a great cost to us to pursue faithfulness and obedience. But there is also this great promise of comfort, that Jesus cares for his people and will work out all things as Romans 8:29 says, for the good of those who love Him and are called according to His purposes.

I'm a young woman living in New England, currently pursuing a Bachelor's in Sociology with a Philosophy minor, which should tell you a lot. I enjoy writing, reading, tarot cards, mysticism and other "odd" areas of interest. My mind often resembles a swirling vortex of ideas that need to surface, some of which are recorded here. Some may not make any bloody sense to anyone, including myself. But I would rather be moving in a vortex than trapped in a vacuum, personally. Tendency to get political since I follow the news closely, and though I try not to be partisan I'm a big advocate for LGBT rights, given that I have a personal stake in it.
Occasionally cynical, but I attempt to be funny about it most times. I have a dry sense of humor but am mostly restrained in real life with it, not afraid to swear given that I live in Boston, so consider language PG-15. Hobbies include writing (original and fanfiction) graphic design (using GIMP) gaming (PS2 and PC), waxing philosophical, and reading way more than is probably healthy. Also trying to learn Japanese (and mostly failing) in my free time. I'm also a monogamous lesbian, currently not in a serious relationship.
The current name of the journal comes from Mat Kearney's song Learning To Love Again. As I said before, I'm interested in all aspects of mysticism and spirituality. I consider myself a pantheist with some pagan leanings, and I was raised Unitarian Universalist. I didn't used to believe a lot of things, but my own experiences have made me see the light, so to speak. I've been told that I'm an "old soul" since I was very young, and to this day many people think I'm a good 5 years older than I actually am. I hope that I can discover more about and the world myself as time goes on.
My friending policy is fairly open, and I welcome ideas that differ from mine for the sake of discussion. The things I will not tolerate are people who intentionally start arguments, belittle others in a clearly malicious way, or show me or anyone I care about disrespect. There are plenty of places to do that on the internet, but this journal is not one of them. I will show you as much respect as you show me, so play nice.
Other than that, come on in, pull up a chair and enjoy the ride.

New Delhi: Asserting that financial bungling by Satyam Computer will have no impact on Indian economy, the Planning Commission today said the Indian capital market is fully capable of dealing with the problems emerging from this case.
"One company's news cannot impact the economy. When market responds to (development in ) a company, people are watching regulators response and the government's response," a senior Planning Commission official said here today.
He said it signaled the capital markets functions well and introduced a high degree of transparency.
"This would not happen in China and people now know that you can never stop some wrongdoing but the system throws out the problem very rapidly and hopefully for the future it will discourage people from doing such things," he said, commenting on the Satyam episode.
The official said it was a very important issue and the way it has evolved indicated that the Indian capital markets come out of it quite well.

New Delhi: Vice President Hamid Ansari on Wednesday said that India can reap demographic dividends by rapidly skilling people.
"If we are able to provide quality skill training to our people, we can make India a human resource powerhouse in the world," Ansari said at the Conference on Skilling India for Global Competitiveness here.
At present, 2-3 per cent people in India have undergone training compared to 68 per cent in Britain and 52 per cent in the US, he added. He warned that the country will look at "unprecedented" unemployment rate if it fails in the task of skilling.
Ansari said he saw three challenges before the skilling task –challenge of quality, challenge of number, and challenge of perception. He added that the companies should be "convinced to hire skilled force rather than hiring cheap labour".

A YOUNG mum and her baby narrowly escaped serious injury after part of a merry-go-round ride collapsed at a fun day.
But the ride's owners insist it was only a 'minor glitch' and vowed to have the carousel running again this week.
Amy Baguley, 17, was riding on Bradley's Golden Victorian Gallopers with her one-year-old son Cameron on Sunday when she was hit by an iron bar as, she claims, the carousel fell apart.
The terrified teenager, who was hit on the back and arm by the pole as she shielded her baby, immediately jumped off the carousel.
She was taken to Stepping Hill Hospital and discharged later. However, she says she is still taking painkillers forbrusing to her back and arm.
The horror ride happened during a family fun day at Lyme Park in Disley, where D K Bradley & Sons had rented a pitch for their carousel.
Speaking from her Stockport home yesterday, Ms Baguley said the whole experience had been "terrifying" and claimed it could have killed her young son.
"Cameron or I could have died if that iron pole had hit either of us on the head," she insisted. "We were on a carousel horse waving to my family when there was an enormous bang and the base of the ride fell to the ground.
"Then there was another crash and the next thing I knew a huge iron pole was falling towards me. I managed to protect Cameron and leant over him, but the pole hit me on the back and arm. I was absolutely terrifed and shaking.
"I jumped off with the baby in my arms and we spent the next four hours in hospital. There is oil on my jumper where the pole hit. I haven't even received an apology from the owners."
Amy's shocked mum-in-law Maria Stennings was watching when the accident took place.
"I couldn't believe what I was seeing," she said. "The carousel dropped to the ground and iron bars began falling down while it was still going around. It's lucky that cast iron bar didn't kill them."
A spokeswoman for the National Trust confirmed an investigation was underway.
"It appears part of a steel support/wooden beam became detached from the carousel and came into contact with a passenger on the ride," she said.
"As a result the carousel was closed and remains so until further notice. The National Trust has contacted the owner, who was not on site at the time.
"He is currently investigating the incident, and the Trust is unable to comment further until the results of his enquiries are known.
"The Golden Gallopers' Carousel is a traditional Victorian carousel and is at Lyme Park for three weeks as part of the property's summer entertainment."
Speaking to the Stockport Express on Tuesday, Darren Bradley, of fairground restoration company D K Bradley & Sons, said: "The machine has operated for years without a glitch. It was a minor incident which we regret and we don't know what caused it. We've checked and double checked the machinery and can't find anything wrong, so the Gallopers should be back running again today."
A Health and Safety Executive spokesman said: "We are aware of the incident and are looking into it."

Loads of epic NSFW language, but it"s so damn funny. Lower those speakers if people are around.
He was also pissed because he`s a raging thundermean person
I have a theory on why that is. I`m pretty sure some of his audience enjoy being pissed off by watching him, and screaming at their television.
I ask my dad why he watches politics if it pisses him off and he tends to give me an answer like "I like watching it!"
Makes no sense to me, but if the boat floats...
All news stations are slightly liberally biased. Fox balances it out by being really biased to the right.
The frightening thing is the number of people who get their news/politics from a show on "Comedy Central".... or better yet, wait to get it on "Saturday Night Live."
Found it...
I hate that man with a passion... just evil
