Cashier wouldn’t believe I’m a senior, tonight

After helping Nick Begich picket on Northern Lights Blvd. in Anchorage, I drove to The Natural Pantry. Since I was purchasing some vitamin K2 (MK-7, along with trying MK-4 for the first time), I told the cashier “I’m a senior” in order to get the 10% discount w/o using the punch card.

She flat out said: “I don’t believe you.”

So I showed her my AK driver’s license.

She said: “It could be fake,” and wasn’t kidding.

I said: “Yeah, sure.”

I was wearing a Nick Begich shirt. She was probably a leftist, Peltola supporter, so felt compelled to be rude.

Anyway, I suppose it’s good not to look my age, but it’s mainly because I’ve taken enough of the key nutrients, and we always wore NWA ball caps when working outside in the sun.

My hands don’t look young though.

Michael Brown Vs Corey Minor on Speaking in Tongues

NOTE: I definitely do not support all of Michael Brown’s views and practices. Michael supports the anti-Christ, NWO, Talmudic system that’s taking us down, while having admitted that Jesus strongly rebuked the Pharisees, who were Talmudists.

Most of what he says here is good, but his idea that the apostles were speaking in Armenian in Acts 2 and not in tongues is bizarre.

Biblically speaking, tongues are mainly people’s personal prayer language in which the Holy Spirit speaks through people mysteries that “no one understands,” which builds up the speaker.

The most popular, current false teaching says it can only be an Acts-2 experience in which foreigners understand, which the rest of the texts clearly refute.

Michael Brown mentions the blessing with the spirit aspect (verses 16 and 17).

I would add that I believe a main reason that Christians are built up when praying in tongues is because tongues is often perfectly praying against evil spirits, perhaps to angels in their language, who then deal with the demons. And this may be why Paul says tongues are praying in the language of men and angels in 1 Cor. 13:1. Praying in the Spirit can set us and others FREE!

Nice ending:

Brown: “Can we both agree and say ‘Father, we want everything that You have for us in the fullness of the Spirit to glorify Jesus and nothing that’s not from You. … I pray that for you. You pray that for me. Fair enough?”

Minor: “Fair enough.”

My response to Michael Brown’s tweet on cessationism — “People are denying that miracles still exist today because hardly any charismatics actually abide in Christ…”

Michael Brown tweeted this on X, while still everywhere calling himself “Dr.;” even though, Jesus warned against doing exactly that in Matthew 23:1-12:

Dr. Michael L. Brown
@DrMichaelLBrown
If the Lord does not return in our lifetimes, I believe that future generations will look back at the doctrine of cessationism with surprise and curiosity, wondering how anyone could deny that the Spirit was still speaking and healing and delivering on a regular basis.

My responses:

Jeff Fenske
@JeffFenske
My take: People are denying that miracles still exist today because hardly any charismatics actually abide in Christ, because of the false doctrines of “once saved only saved,” “only believe,” and “it’s hard to lose one’s salvation” [Michael Brown teaches the latter]. The fear of God is now only “reverence.” Sin is rampant, so it’s easy for the woke to mock “Christians” now.

I wonder how many charismatics still pray in tongues regularly. Most ‘Christian’ men seem to be too busy lusting, walking according to the flesh instead of the Spirit, disqualifying them from the Kingdom.

This bothered me enough to write a post on.

FOTOSPEED TALKS @ TPS | Charlie Waite (2021)

Charlie Waite is one of the photographers who inspired me about shooting in different aspect ratios, which he doesn’t mention in this talk, but his images here have varied aspect ratios from square to pano!

I actually gave up on photography for a long season partly because no camera company would make a full frame camera with an oversized, multi-aspect ratio sensor; though, they could have easily done it. Everything had to be cropped from 3:2, which made extreme wide angle shots in other aspect ratios impossible, and made photography much less interesting for me. Much of the lenses’ image circle couldn’t be used. Creativity was stifled.

When I discovered the medium format, Fuji GFX 100S could be used with my smaller, full frame, SLR lenses in any aspect ratio, I got excited and reengaged : )

“Familiar spirits” are demonic thoughts people hear in their minds. Many follow these thoughts…

Related: Can a Christian Have a Demon? Absolutely! Most Have Many!

If we ask God a question and get conflicting answers…

If we have thoughts that WE DIDN’T ORIGINATE that lead us astray, these are FAMILIAR SPIRITS, demons speaking to us in the first person, mimicking our own thoughts, deceiving. Most people may have this problem.

More than 40 years ago, I realized this was happening to me, when I was trying to learn how to hear God’s voice. During worship, my mind would be clear, could hear God’s voice easily, but otherwise….

I blasted those other voices with my prayer language (“submit to God, resist the Devil and he will flee), and have never had the problem since.

We need to make sure we’re free of demonic spirits that speak in the first person as if they’re our own thoughts.

Many people think these voices, “familiar spirits” are our friends, but they’re gruesome and diabolical, and will send us to hell if we obey them.

We should only hear One Voice. This is crucially important in these last days.

(13 min video) What is wrong with Israelis?

This extreme, Talmudic supremacist mockery, seeing others as dogs finally woke me up 15 years ago to what’s really going on in this version of “Israel.” Then I saw Ted Pike’s biblical analysis, showing how the true Judaics (most of these are not) are only entitled to return to the land when they’re obedient.

This is counterfeit, not condoned or brought about by God, but by the Rothschild globalist kingpins and extreme terrorism from the start.

We’ve all been told a whitewashed, false narrative that it’s the “holy land.” I felt no holiness at all when I visited twice 30 and 40 years ago. Study what the Talmud says about Christians, Jesus and all non-them. They call us the Goyim.

What’s wrong with the Israelis?

The Talmud.

Working for Northwest Airlines

It never was “my life,” but I worked for NWA starting in 1979 for 33 years — including a few at the end with Delta, after they bought us out, and then farmed out our jobs to a third party company.

I’m thankful for the great and unique experiences, and the ability to see the world!

Mom & Me at Larry Austin’s ‘Farewell Dan Fagan’ Party 12/2022

I just posted this on Facebook.

– –

Friend in real life, Larry Austin graciously hosted this Farewell to Dan Fagan party.

I’m in the VITAMIN D SHIRT (since I called into Dan’s show talking about D), and MOM is wearing my TRUTH MATTERS shirt. Larry bought us all pizza to compel people to come. How WONDERFUL!

Larry and I have stayed in touch since. I consider those of us in Anchorage to be extremely blessed to have a real-life peacemaker as an ambassador of God operating in his gift here.

Jesus said: “Blessed are the peacemakers, for they shall be called the children of God.”

Thank you, Larry!

2,700 Year-old, 1/3rd Mile Hezekiah’s Tunnel in Jerusalem — I waded through it in ~1983

I don’t remember it being a formal site back then. Two Palestinian boys told me where it was. My Abbott Loop Bible teacher, John Owen told suggested I walk it, who was kind enough to let me stay with him for 10 days in Jerusalem.

The water was sometimes above my knees. Two teams dug from opposite ends, and where they met can be seen, because the alignment jags there, but not by much, which I found impressive — maybe only a foot or so (it’s been 40 years)?

2-minute video shows what it’s like now:

My President Donald Trump Dream 8/14/23

TIMING: President Trump is being hunted down by the left, and risks being jailed so he can’t even run in 2024.

SETTING: As is often the case in dreams, my car was different than in real life, and the location was unfamiliar.

THE DREAM: I was standing next to the right side of my car, parked on the street, and President Trump pulled up in a regular car, by himself (no security). He was so interested in what was in my car that he pulled up so close that his bumper almost touched mine. I warned him, so he wouldn’t hit it, and then smiled after he stopped, holding up my thumb and forefinger about 1/8 inch apart.

Gordon Lightfoot Meant a Lot to Me – ’70s Lake Superior Adventures

Every time my high school and college friend, Steve and I would drive up to the Boundary Waters Canoe Area (BWCA in NE Minnesota) to go canoeing, we listened to Gordon Lightfoot’s music much of the way, and would stop at Split Rock Lighthouse. I remember once cooking our macaroni and cheese in a crack in the ground by the cliff, since it was so windy.

MOVIE: Gordon Lightfoot: If You Could Read My Mind (2019)

Great movie about Gordon Lighfoot’s life, released in 2019! Gordon speaks a lot in the film at about age-80, and is pretty honest about things he regrets having done. This is the first time I’ve seen his story told. His music meant a lot to me in the ’70s!

Tom Cobaugh: God’s moral principles are a castle, not a prison — our protective walls and moat!

God’s moral principles are a castle: strong walls and a moat that protects us from the destructive influences of Satan, the world and our own sin nature — our refuge!

‘Do you see God’s moral principles as a prison that keeps you from doing what you want, or as a castle that protects you from the destructive influences of Satan, the world and your own sin nature?’

One of dozens of Tom Cobaugh’s Sunday classes that I attended.

LX5 Landscape Photography by Charlie Waite — multi-aspect ratio sensor demonstrated

My favorite video that Panasonic produced which shows how useful, creative and fun the multi-aspect ratio sensor is on this camera. I fell in love with this feature while using it during most of my final days working at NWA/Delta cargo, from 2010-2012.

Currently, Panasonic’s only still camera in production using the multi-aspect ratio sensor is the LX100 II, which is much bigger, but has stellar image quality because of its all-glass lens and large, micro four thirds sensor.

Their GH5S also has a multi-aspect ratio sensor, but is designed for video mainly, as it only has 10 MP and no IBIS (in-body image stabilization).  [a review]

My favorite 2010 compact camera reviewed in 2022

Great review of the camera I used during most of my final days working at NWA/Delta cargo, from 2010-2012. Sometime in 2012, Sony’s RX100 replaced it, because the image quality was much better in low light especially with the 20 MP 1 inch sensor.

With this camera, I fell in love with the multi-aspect ratio sensor, which sadly, is almost extinct now.

Rodney Lough, Jr. explains persistence in photographing ‘Day Dreaming’

Photo Link: Day Dreaming – Rodney Lough Jr.

Thankfully, I was able to visit Rodney Lough Jr.’s three galleries before they all closed. What a glorious experience! How he captured God’s nature is breathtaking! I have found it so sad that people’s interest in nature photography has waned, which is why I parked my camera gear.

My favorite Saturday morning cartoon: “Johnny Quest”

Probably my favorite show as a child, along with ‘Daniel Boone,’ ‘Timmy and Lassie’ — and later when in high school: ‘Kung Fu.’

On Saturday mornings, I watched “Johnny Quest.”

– –

A rare documentary featuring interviews, rare clips and insight into the origins of Jonny Quest and its creators. This amazing documentary originally appeared on the most excellent JONNY QUEST DVD box set.

Photo: Dave Bronson is the man – NWA captain!

Great Photo – Dave Bronson is the man! Anchorage needs an honest, pragmatic mayor at the helm!

Dave remembers me from when I worked the NWA 747 freighters he piloted. He told me he also had trouble not hitting his head on the main deck’s ceiling as we both had to climb the ladder to get up to the cockpit.

I told him I went up it too fast twice, and should have learned the first time. He said it happened to him too, and that the opening wasn’t designed for people over 6 feet.

Our 747F-100s were designed in the ’60s.

Petra: ‘Let Everything That Hath Breath’ (Praise the Lord)

I became a Christian in 1974 while reading the Paul and Silas jailer story in Acts 16 mentioned in this song. It was clear to me they had what I wanted. I was trying to find the true source of being able to love others — the one true religion that worked, which I hadn’t found while studying in the Lutheran school system K-12. While in my senior year, I don’t know why, but I decided to start reading the Bible in Acts 1, which I still think is a great place to start.

– –

Let everything that has breath praise the Lord
Let every creature under God’s sun praise the Lord
Let all the mountains, let all the valleys
Let all the hillsides sing of His glory
Let everything that has breath praise the Lord

Israel had a war to fight but the Lord showed them the secret
He said the battle this day is mine, but you must listen how to do it
Put your singers first in front of the rest
Let them praise and sing to me
And you will see the salvation of your God
And watch your enemies flee

Paul and Silas were thrown in jail
For preaching the gospel of Christ
Though in chains they praised His name singing songs in the night
Just then an earthquake shook the place and the chains and the doors were loosened
Then the jailer ran in scared to death and that day he found salvation

Wim Hof Cold Showers in Alaska — My Experience

I’ve been taking cold showers for at least a year. Alaska’s tap water is ideal at 41°F in winter and 46°F in summer.

My feet used to get cold outside, but now I can wear summer shoes (with screws for traction) with one pair of regular socks comfortably in slightly below zero Fahrenheit

My hands still get cold though, which I’m finally now theorizing may be because my arms and hands don’t spend much time in the cold water, which I’m going to now change, whereas the feet are in cold water during the entire shower.

As a child, playing outside for hours in Minnesota, and downhill skied without a mask. I frostbit my fingers, toes and nose, and thought they’d never improve.

My toes seem back to normal now at age-63, thanks to Wim Hof and Alaska’s cold tap water!

Life giving therapy that costs nothing!

Greg Lake of Emerson, Lake and Palmer – “In those days, you needed to be original. These days, you have to be the same”

I’m grateful that I grew up when much of the music was originally interesting, instead of straight mind-control, like most of it is today.

– –

“We formed this band, and decided it had to be original. In those days, the currency was originality. You needed to be original. These days, it’s more like you have to be ‘the same’ to fit into some market concept.”

“We decided to use European music for the influence.”

(vid) Upgrades being made to Potter Marsh pullouts for wildlife viewing – Anchorage

I’ve spent many hours here, when I was doing nature photography very seriously, shooting both trumpeter swans and the amazing arctic terns.

VIDEO/STORY

The Death of Spurr – Kenai, Alaska Eagle Cam

Someone from the city tried to rescue Spurr, but found Spurr didn’t survive the 40 foot fall.

I’ve been watching the City of Kenai Eagle Cam every day since before the hatches. This was SO SAD to see happen. The father hasn’t been seen in weeks. Aurora, the mother is doing a good job raising Denali, who is starting to grow feathers and was even eating salmon on his/her own.

Made fun of for researching things on a computer by people who blindly believe Television

Made fun of for making sure what we’re being told is actually so.

Paul: “Now these [the BEREANS] were MORE NOBLE than those in Thessalonica, in that they received the word with all readiness of the mind, EXAMINING THE SCRIPTURES DAILY TO SEE WHETHER THESE THINGS WERE SO.” – Acts 17:11

Alaskan Todd Salat’s “Joy of Nature” Aurora Video Featuring “Open Heart!”

Nothing demonstrates the glory of God to me in nature more than the wondrous northern lights dancing overhead, filling the entire sky!

Walking through the Redwoods is my #2 most awesome. And the flight over the 50-mile-long Ruth glacier in front of Denali is #3.

I’ve actually had some AMAZING supernatural experiences in the presence of God that top these natural experiences, including when the angels sung during the Rodney Howard-Browne meetings in Anchorage, 1993.

The coming spiritual revival will be AWESOME!

I do like this “Open Heart” image a lot!

JOY OF NATURE
Here’s a short video of the best northern lights I saw on my 18-night springtime Aurora Hunt to the Brooks Range of Northern Alaska in early April, 2020. Hope you can feel the real-time JOY, and please feel free to share!

For those who enjoy more resolution, I have a 1080p HD version on my YouTube Channel youtube.com/user/toddsalat/videos, and a 4K on my Vimeo Channel vimeo.com/aurorahunter.

Benefits of Nutritional Yeast that Go Beyond B-Vitamins – Selenium!

I’ve been pushing this since the mid-’80s. GREAT source of SELENIUM (skin elasticity, detox, etc.) and many other key nutrients.

The king is KAL *Imported* Nutritional Yeast; though, it’s more expensive, and the deep yellow colored (fortified) ones work too.

Coconut cream seems to also be high in selenium.
