Love, Why we Suffer: A Wake-Up Call from Mike 

The Conspiracy against God is about "The Word", and the profaning of His Holy Name within us. Adam fell in the garden, breaking the direct connection to God. Jesus, the "last Adam" was a quickening Spirit, the Word made Flesh, and the only one with whom we can re-establish our relationship with God. Michael\'s story is still unfolding. He is the one who is, is not. But Jesus is the only name given under heaven by which we must be saved. Many are trying to rewrite HIStory. We were given a help to instruct us. Learn more "here".

Love, Why we suffer, Wake up call from Mike.

April 29, 2010 – Love, Why we suffer, Wake up call from Mike.

It has been a week since I published an update to this blog. Much has happened since I’ve been away. I have several things I would like to talk about. I will start this with some food for thought.

I Peter 4: 12 – 16, “Beloved, do not think it strange concerning the fiery trial which is to try you, as though some strange thing happened to you; but rejoice to the extent that you partake of Christ’s sufferings, that when His glory is revealed, you may also be glad with exceeding joy. If you are reproached for the name of Christ, blessed are you, for the Spirit of glory and of God rests upon you. On their part He is blasphemed, but on your part He is glorified. But let none of you suffer as a murderer, a thief, an evildoer, or as a busybody in other people’s matters. Yet if anyone suffers as a Christian, let him not be ashamed, but let him glorify God in this matter”

What does this mean? It took me years to understand this. Christ understood it. None of us however, witnessed this in person. We are to take everything the Bible says on faith.

God knows our limitations. In the old testament, it was Job who was called to show the people what the love of God is, through his suffering. If you love someone, you are willing to suffer for them, without any thought of reward or what you would get out of it. In the New Testament, it was Christ that actually suffered FOR us. Christ knew what was coming. He knew what would happen to us if he did not follow through with God\'s will for his persecution.

Jesus could not bear to see one more thing happen to us. He did not want to see us in pain and he did not want us to suffer. So he came to take our place.

He was afraid, he prayed much and he prayed trembling. He prayed for strength and he prayed for mercy, but he did what God put him here to do and he continued to love. Love was why he did it.

I did not understand why someone would want to suffer for someone else. I would have done it for my children, but for strangers? People I didn’t know and never met? Why would anyone want to suffer for the sake of someone else, with no expectation of any reward or what you would get out of it? Why would someone do that?

I had to see a smaller scale example of someone doing that to understand how strong a love that is.

“I will never stop helping and loving people the way Jesus said to . . .” Michael Jackson, 60 Minutes interview with Ed Bradley

I am seeing (reading) an continued splintering of the fan base. Most of this is from contention over the coveting of recognition. As has gone on within Michael’s close business associates and hangers on, so it goes with his fans, friends and those who just love him? Who’s example are we following? Are we following right into Sony’s hands? Do you enjoy his suffering?

It seems as though just as a new group gets started with great intentions, it’s growth drags with it a certain greed for recognition. Groups get taken away from others or taken over by others, sore feelings, then accusations, then all out wars develop. I don’t know whether to smile at the inevitability of it, or drop my head in sorrow that regardless of what family, group, city, nation, religion, or civilization, we cannot seem to escape the predictable pattern of infighting for self glorification.

I can’t imagine the reflection on everything Michael tried to warn us about. We are not helping him this way. Did that man suffer for nothing? Do any one of us want to be responsible for contributing to the same cancer that Michael wrote lyrics and prayers about? Who wants their turn to snap the whip on his skin this time?

What is more important to you? Justice for someone you love who was killed, or recognition for accomplishing nothing more than being glorified as the one who did or does the most for him? Are we really fighting each other over this issue?

Samuel 11:11 – “So it was, on the next day, that Saul put the people in three companies; and they came into the midst of the camp in the morning watch, and killed Ammonites until the heat of the day. And it happened that those who survived were scattered, so that no two of them were left together.”- This talks about the scattering and separation of the army of the Ammonites. Scattering and separation is an offensive tactic to eliminate effectiveness of an opponent. (Sony, trolls, political and corporate plants, demons)

Romans 16:17 – “Now I urge you, brethren, note those who cause divisions and offenses, contrary to the doctrine which you learned, and avoid them.” – This passage is telling us to recognize those who cause divisions and disharmony. Remember there is an agenda by those doing causing discord. Keep your eye on the bigger picture and remember there is a purpose bigger than you.

I Corinthians 1:10 – “Now I plead with you, brethren, by the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that you all speak the same thing, and that there be no divisions among you, but that you be perfectly joined together in the same mind and in the same judgment.” – This is a powerful statement. What you are seeing now has been going on for centuries. Remember the reason we call came together in the first place!

I Corinthians 3:3 – “for you are still carnal. For where there are envy, strife, and divisions among you, are you not carnal and behaving like mere men?” – Envy, strife and divisions. Do not let them steer you off course. I cannot believe this is happening again. If you want justice for Michael, then ignore the attempts to divide us, see it and recognize it for what it is. You know the more you are attacked, the bigger a threat you are to those wanting to thwart justice for Michael’s murder.

A news item at Showbiz 411.com click link under url to read article), announces a surprise revelation that Michael recorded a complete Album back in 2007 that no one knew about. During 2007 (when most of us thought he was still over in Dubai, or Ireland, or Britain), Michael had also spent some time in Northern Virginia and in New Jersey at long time family friends, the Cascios. Michael recorded the album, it reports, with Eddie Cascio, who has known Michael since he (Eddie) was a child. I remember reading stories that Michael would visit the Cascio’s (who’s father was a general manager of a casino in Vegas, a frequent haunt of Michael’s) and offer to vacuum the carpet because he craved doing something “normal”. (Michael, should have called me! Do you do windows?) Reading anything from the Cascio’s regarding Michael gave me a warm recognition of who Michael was as a person, away from the spotlight.

Questions arise, since this is a complete album produced and recorded by Michael, with Eddie, outside and away from anything SONY, just what will happen? Branca has no rights to Michael’s self produced music since Sony had no contract with Michael in 2007. Also, since these song were recorded with Eddie Cascio and Eddie has no obligation to Sony either, could this be the wedge needed to break Branca of his stronghold on anything Michael Jackson related? This article says Eddie is “covered” legally. This bears some serious watching. It did my heart good to read that Michael did have some peace and happy times with the Cascio family in the middle of a very tumultuous and heartbreaking stretch of time since 2003. Cascio family . . . God Bless you all for being his true friend and taking care of him.

Finding the connection in the beginning was hard. Sure Frank DiLeo, a previous Sony loyalist (and former Epic Records Alumni) was listed as a producer of “This is It” organized by AEG, but I could not figure out how John Branca would or could weasel his way in as executive producer of “This is It.” The only thing I could figure was that DiLeo and Branca were both working for Michael during the same stretch of time back in the early nineties. Since Branca and Sony were cabin buddies, Branca probably had some convincing clout in which to dangle in front of AEG.

Tom Barrack (Michael’s Tohme acquaintance and Neverland financier) and Anschutz were also friends, which I did not find out about until this past month, from this article: LA Times Tom Barrack and friend Anschutz (AEG Live) closed another link hooking another plastic monkey from the barrel. Now to find the Link between Tohme/Barrack/Anschutz and Sony/Branca/Mottola/Malnik. Anyone? Let’s see if we can’t connect this whole barrel of monkeys.

I need your help. No more fighting. This is still important. June 13th is just a month away.

I mean there are some links that are worth to follow. Like this article in Vanity Fair July 2005: http://www.accessmylibrary.com/coms2/summary_0286-9568118_ITM

Bonnie, I just found out something that puzzled me here, regarding Mr Lopez (remember his suicide a couple of days ago?): http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,302533,00.html

«(...But Lopez, the new attorney, tells me the beleaguered pop star has no interest in touring or performing. "He feels he’s done that," Lopez said.(...)»

According to this in December 2008: http://mjjtimeline.blogspot.com/2009/08/2008.html «Tom Barrack & Dr Tohme Tohme convince Michael to accept a concert deal and they contact Randy Phillips from AEG Live in oder to start negotiations.»

«At the MGM Grand in Las Vegas, Michael (with Blanket and Dr Tohme Tohme by his side), meets an AEG delegation headed by Philip Anschutz, its billionaire founder, AEG's chief executive Tim Leiweke, Randy Phillips, who heads up AEG Live and Paul Gongaware. Michael signs a deal for 10 concerts in London next summer and he also accepts to submit to a rigorous medical check-up at his LA home.»

Michael announces his last concerts in London beginning on July 08 during a short press conference at the O2 Arena. The event named "This Is It" .The touring deal with concert promoter AEG Live was arranged by a Colony Capital associate Dr Tohme Tohme who has been Michael's manager and president of MJJ Productions for a year.As part of the deal, AEG's corporate parent, Anschutz Corp., agreed to invest in a pet project of Mr. Jackson's, a 3-D feature film based on his song and music video "Thriller."People close to the singer say that he is eager to return to work. "Between Anschutz and us, he's got plenty of capital," said Tom Barrack, Colony's chief executive. "He's serious, he's focused, he's healthy and he's listening."To obtain insurance for the tour, AEG arranged for an independent physician to conduct a five-hour physical exam of Mr. Jackson. "He passed with flying colors," said AEG's Mr. Phillips."For the first time in his life, Michael Jackson has people around him who believe in him and look after him," said Dr. Tohme. "And are trying to help him and advance his career."

Raymone Bain, Michael's former manager and spokersperson, files a lawsuit in Washington D.C claiming breach of contract; quantum meruit and unjust enrichment and she asks for 44 millions $.

Dr. Tohme Tohme is officially terminated as Michael's manager and disbarred from having any subsequent affiliation with him or any of his numerous established entities (including MJJ Productions and the newer MJJ Kingdom).

John Branca meets Michael during rehearsals at The Forum and they talk about working together again.

Skeptikos, I will look into these links and references when I have more time this week. Mother's day and I just saw this. Give me a couple of days. Thank you so much for going through the trouble of compiling all this.

Skeptikos, I don't know who you are, but I just fell in love with you. Thank you so much for these links. It might be a while before I can compile research from all these, but give me some time. ;o)

Hi its like you are reading my mind with everything what I am reading here, if it would be possible I would love to talk to you, you can contact me on angel.faith777@yahoo.co.uk love you angel xxxxxxx ;-)) ;-))

Understanding Michael’s Purpose, Lord if we Ever N...

We are living in Biblically significant Times. Ironically it was the most persecuted man in modern history that lead me to dig deeper into the Bible and taught me more about God than any other human being on the planet. And that man is Michael Jackson. I started a blog to defend him. I ended up researching him and learned just why they were after him. They did everything they could to shut him down. In the song "Cry" he said "take over for me", so that is what I am doing. God bless that man and his faith and strength

"Like the Bible says. A child should be leader of them all, and to be led by that kind of innocence. Didn\'t Jesus say \'bring on the children?\' Be like the children. Not childish, but child-like. That kind of innocence."

"Children show me in their playful smiles the divine in everyone. This simple goodness shines straight from their hearts and only asks to be lived." Michael Jackson Oprah Winfrey Interview

"I avoid using the term \'religion\', because many people say \'my religion\' this and \'my religion\' that. Why should it be \'my\' religion? I just believe what’s in the Bible with regard to which religion is involved. I simply believe.... I believe in it and I get down on my knees every night and thank God and ask Him to lead the way."
