Greetings, body of Christ. Thank you for the great comments on yesterday's video: "Maria de Lima: CRAZY NUNS." With few exceptions, everyone loved it. If you haven't yet seen it, there is a link below. It's a lot of fun and it highlights a very basic truth: Religion is violent, and it persecutes even the
beautiful and pure. This main point is demonstrated graphically and humorously—in my humble opinion. It's nice to see how many of you agree.

I have not read todays ZWTF classic in four years—since the dayI wrote it. In fact, it is almost precisely four years old, having been published on November 15, 2015. But zowie, what a revelation. I read it this morning and rejoiced in it. It compares the sufferings of the current era with the glories of our coming life in Christ.
The edition starts by recounting several of the trials I encountered
while visiting Fresno, CA, in 2015, and ends with a key to understanding
the glory in store for us in the near future at God's right hand. This ZWTF (Volume 4, Issue 48) is a trip. It's a trip that includes a trip. Can you get any trippier than that?
Be sure to watch the two video links on the last page of the newsletter.
You may have seen the Sheryl Crow video before, but maybe not the
video I made the next day from Glendale, CA. The second video gives the back story about my visit to my fellow-member of the body of Christ (Sheryl Crow), and how I knew—while ringing her doorbell for the first time ever—that her parents (whom I'd never met) literally despised me. It's great stuff! And yet the second video has only 323 views. Odd. It is so powerful.
Thank you, as always, for your continued support of this work. To all who
help to keep me going, THANK YOU from the bottom of my heart, which
presently sits in my chest at the edge of the bottom of the Floridan peninsula.
How much longer?
Until we meet in the air with Christ—or you come down here to visit me
here on the peninsula—I remain you servant in the Lord and brother in Christ,
Martin
