Learn to serving cabbage leaf, and why you should put it on your chest

Cabbage is a good source of vitamin W.

Regular cabbage consumption decreases the chances of colon cancer. This is because substances

chemical present in cabbage inhibit growth tumors and protect cells from damage

that free radicals cause.

Women who consume cabbage have fewer breast cancer chances, uterus and ovary.

Furthermore cabbage: - Has diuretic action

- Prevents and treats diabetes, obesity acid Uric and heart disease

- Relieves symptoms of rheumatism and arthritis - Restores the intestinal flora

- Combat gastritis and colitis - Treats colds and flu

- Deals with problems related to hypothyroidism Cabbage may have external use by

application of its leaves:

1 case blows, bruises, pain joints, knees and ankles:

Place a fresh purple cabbage leaf on the affected area. You can involve local

with a bandage and remove only the next day.

2 Thyroid Put a few fresh leaves on the skin

neck, then wrap with a cloth, keeping heated overnight. The next day

wash the area.

3- Headaches Headaches caused by stress, fatigue

Oxsight is a vision aid for the blind - Duration: 3:51.

- I've always been really passionate about human vision

and what it is to see the world,

and how it feels really complex,

but actually the brain sort of pieces together so much

to make our sense of sight

that technology like augmented reality

can really play a huge role in people

who don't have much in the way of light-sensing ability.

Once you start to lose your sight,

it really becomes difficult to differentiate

between, say, a foreground object and a background one.

They kind of blur together.

We are making use of the sight that people still have.

And it may just be the detection of light and movement

or a small amount of shape detection.

And so what we do is put that

on the inside of a pair of glasses.

This device is a large battery controller and processor.

The key thing is you've got these really simple controls.

But the modes that we set are really

what we're trying to investigate.

So, this is the simplest of all.

So, it just shows a depth map

with a person or an object nearby is very, very bright.

Then we can start to increase some of the details here

by taking it up one mode.

So now the person now has a little bit of brighter outlines.

And there's a person revealed

and some chairs behind in the background.

We also looked at some stuff

where we'd also applied some cartoonization

for anything that was near enough in front.

So now we have one face here.

It's quite pixelated, but it can give you a gist of,

there's a person there.

And then there's another one

where we just look at pure contrast.

So this gives you a whole bright display

and boosts the contrast of objects.

You can zoom in, magnify the image,

even pause it if you want.

'Cause some people need to have that kind of ability

to kind of pause an image and investigate a bit further.

So it's a really huge range of stuff,

'cause blindness is such a diverse condition,

if you're really trying to suit the actual person's needs.

Most of the people that we work with

have had full sight at some stage in their life,

and it's degraded over time.

So they know what objects look like,

and I guess they miss them and things like that.

But with faces, I think that's the really profound thing.

A lot of people have said

that they're bound to see their daughter's faces

and interact with them over the table,

and not really ever thinking

they would be able to have that experience again.

And so that sort of stuff feeds back to the lab.

And you know, it's all remarkable,

and we all get so excited about that.

Some of the other stuff is about

being able to naturally see obstacles.

So obviously you know people use a cane or a guide dog often

to walk around objects.

That gives you immediate localization of obstacles

but doesn't give you a bigger sense of awareness.

So some people will often walk into cars or billboards

or things like that on the road.

And our glasses give you a real heads-up about that.

A lot of people comment

about their sort of freedom of movement

and their ability to go out with more confidence

and go to dark places like bars and restaurants

where sight would be limited.

- At the heart of it, this is a medical device.

This isn't something that someone's gonna

roll up to the store and buy off the shelf.

How does the fact that you're making this product

that is inherently an aid of some kind,

how does that impact your business?

- So, it's not a traditional setup

where you've got a gigantic market

and a relatively well-defined one

that you can just ask an investor, here we go.

No one's ever tried to sell devices like this.

It's essentially like a hearing aid for vision.

It's really unknown.

So raising money was about finding

the right type of investor,

who was prepared to carry a bit of that risk

but also have a potentially philanthropic interest

in this work as well.

And so we did find an investor who covers all those aspects.

In the future, a lot of us will be using smart glasses.

I think that's actually,

well, that's what we all think is gonna happen quite soon.

So I like the idea of exploring this definite need

and building up our platform of technology

so that maybe in five years' time

when certain companies will come out with something

which we all really like,

we've already got a great platform underneath that

that we can start exploring other areas.

Like there's an area of dementia or autism or dyslexia.

All these areas can be potentially facilitated

by wearable displays that in some way manipulate and tune

your outside environment.

Creating an Artistic Paint Layer Decal Effect in UE4 | TimefireVR - Duration: 5:14.

Hi! This is Laurie Annis with TimefireVR,

and I'm going to show you how I applied

artistic paint effects to a building in UE4, using decals.

My assignment was to transform this

plain white building into a dramatic work of art

that pique's player's interest and invites them

to explore the interactive Art Studio within.

For reference, I was given photos

of a historic church in South West Washington D.C.

painted by an abstract/street artist

who goes by the name of HENSE.

After some back and forth with the level designer

and my lead artist, I got approval to test out

the design we see here,

which incorporates high-contrast primary colors

in the rainbow, sun, and sky motif that I proposed.

After painting my designs in 4k on

transparent backgrounds,

I export as .png with transparency enabled.

Returning to UE4,

I import my new images into

the proper folder in the project.

Then I create a New Material.

Although in this case it makes sense to simply

duplicate a working material I had set up previously,

and then drag/drop the new image into

the Material editor panel,

and reconnect the new Texture Sample

to the Material Node.

Top to Base Color, bottom to Opacity.

Then we need to make sure that the Material Node

is set up correctly,

with the Material Domain set to Deferred Decal,

the Blend Mode to Translucent,

and the Decal Blend Mode set to

DBuffer Translucent Color.

If you hover your cursor over each option,

you can see that different modes

work in different situations.

The Translucent Decal Blend Mode

and a few others don't work with Baked Lighting.

I only need the decal's Color to be applied to the

base mesh in this particular Baked Lighting scenario,

and I don't need the Normal and Roughness

that can be applied with other Blend Modes,

so I chose DBuffer Translucent Color.

Once your material is set up and saved,

you can go back to the editor and set up your decal.

I'll enable the right half of the decal setup

that I did previously here,

so you can get an idea of the effect that I'm going for.

The decal material I created was applied

to this decal actor, and

once I set up the rotation and scale properly,

it projects onto the side of the building as intended.

To start, I'll browse through

my Modes panel to Visual Effects.

From there, I grab the Deferred Decal Actor,

and drag it into my scene.

You'll see it starts out projecting onto the ground,

so I rotate it 90 degrees along the Y axis,

move it up in the Z axis,

adjust the position a bit in the X and Y

and I then scale it up a bit in all directions.

From here I should be able to simply

drag my Decal Material into the

Decal Actor's material slot,

although in this case it appears I have a problem with

my material, so I open up the Material

that I previously duplicated,

and it turns out that I need to drop in

the correct texture into the textures slot, like so.

Check that everything is still set up correctly

and hit save.

From here I can simply move my Decal Actor

around in the scene until I get it

precisely to my liking.

Note that a decal projecting perpendicular

to a wall will just stretch,

so I may want to rotate it at a 45 degree angle

to achieve a clean projection across both sides.

From there, it's just a matter of tweaking

the Decal Actor's position forward and back,

left and right until it flows exactly the way you want it.

Too far forward or back, and the effect fades.

I won't show it here, but you can also

increase the scale of the Decal Actor

to change how much coverage you get.

Note that a decal projecting

in the opposite direction (225 degrees)

will mirror around corners rather than

continuing smoothly, as you see

on the back side of this building.

There it is though,

two decal actors working in conjunction,

to project the desired artistic paint layer

over my blank canvas of a building.

Is This a Real or Fake Fashion Brand? | Racked - Duration: 1:46.

It sounds like a porn star.

Hey, it's Rebecca Jennings from Racked.

Today, we're going to find out whether fashion people can tell if these brand names are fake

or just really, really weird.

So I'm going to say a name,

and you have to tell me if this is an actually real fashion brand

What Is Video Marketing? || Mobius Media Solutions - Duration: 2:17.

I am sure you have all heard the term…..Video Marketing.

But what is Video Marketing really?

Stick around I'm going to be talking about that..right now.

Hi guys, Ryan from Mobius Media Solutions and today we are going to talk about exactly that!

In a nutshell Video Marketing is incorporating the use of video into your marketing campaigns.

These videos can be corporate style About Us videos, product videos, testimonials or

even live event videos.

But why are videos important to your marketing efforts?

This is because audiences are 10x more likely to interact with video based ads over standard

static images ads.

This means your cost per conversion or impression will be drastically lower giving you the ability

to be make more hyper targeted campaigns while being more efficient with your marketing budgets.

So now you're probably wondering "How do I get started running video based ads?"

Well, we go over this is greater detail in our "Marketing on Facebook" video, which

I highly recommend checking out, but to give you quick overview.

First, you want figure out who your customer avatar is and then you want to figure out

what their pain point is.

Next you want to identify the benefit your product is offering to solve that pain point.

Finally, hop in front of the camera with a goal of making a 30-60 second video and a

script that calls out your audience and their pain point along with how your product solves

that specific pain point.

Once your video is ready to go, head over to your Facebook Ads Account.

Set up your video ad and away you go!

Now the length and content of your videos can change based on your goals, and what resonates

with your audience.

This is also not to say video is the ONLY way to go about driving traffic efficiently

online.

But again, it IS proven that video has a much better chance at driving engagement, and THAT

is what, and why video marketing is so important in 2017.

Thanks for watching guys!

What is Disability Discrimination in the Workplace? - Duration: 1:30.

Disability discrimination is another form of discrimination.

This is probably one of the most recent amendments to the law because until the early nineteen

nineties, employees with disabilities could be discriminated against.

This is a dramatic step forward in the development of the law that protects employees in the

workplace and essentially, it means that if someone can still perform their job as they've

always done it, or with some minor modifications to how they perform the job, the employer

has an obligation to grant those accommodations known as reasonable accommodations that allow

the employee to do the job.

For example, if an employee engages in manual laborer and has to lift things but has a lifting

restriction, the employer is obligated to provide some sort of equipment that allows

them to lift things more easily.

Oftentimes, there are air pressure lifters that make it much lighter for someone to lift

something.

That's just one example.

An economic workstation might be another example.

These are changes that allow the employee to perform their job even though they have

some disability that in the absence of those changes, would make it more difficult for

them to perform the job.

Employers have a duty to actively engage with employees to figure out ways to restructure

their job so that they can do it.

DAN: THE GOVERNOR APOLOGIZING IS

POLITICIANS ARE SO AFRAID TO DO

IT BECAUSE THEY ARE AFRAID TO

RUN AS AN ELEMENT IN AN

WHO NEED TO BE HERE.

LET'S GO TO THE NATION'S

YOU TODAY BEFORE THE PRESS

HAS GOT

A BODY WHO IS GOING TO

DO THE INTELLIGENCE REVIEW.

HE IS UPSET WITH THE

INTELLIGENCE WORLD.

THEY BEAT YOU SHOULD STOP TAKING

ON IT.

NOW HE WILL HAVE ONE OF HIS

BILLIONAIRE FINANCE BUDDIES DO A

REVIEW OF THE INTELLIGENCE

COMMUNITY.

OK, ALL RIGHT, THEN, DONALD.

THAT MAKES PERFECT SENSE.

I AM SORRY, MR. PRESIDENT

GENERAL FLYNN.

MR. PRESIDENT.

GENERAL FLYNN HAS BEEN

SUSPENDED.

HE WAS THE LATEST ON ALL THAT

WAS DONE YESTERDAY AND TODAY.

THEY ARE GOING TO PAY A BIG

PRICE FOR LEAKING.

THE PRESIDENT HAS TWEETED

THIS MORNING THE SPOTLIGHT HAS

FINALLY PUT ON THE LEAKERS.

THEY WILL BE CAUGHT.

MICHAEL FLYNN WAS FORCED TO

RESIGN AFTER REPORT REVEALED HE

MISLED THE AMERICAN PEOPLE AND

VICE PRESIDENT PENCE ABOUT

CONVERSATIONS HE HAD WITH THE

RUSSIAN AMBASSADOR TO THE U.S.

PRESIDENT TRUMP: IT IS UNFAIR

WHAT IS HAPPENING TO GENERAL

FLYNN, AND THE PAPERS THAT WERE

ILLEGALLY -- I STRESS THAT --

ILLEGALLY LEAKED.

HE IS CONSIDERING

APPOINTING

STEPHEN FEINBERG TO LEAD A

REVIEW OF INTELLIGENCE AGENCIES.

REPUBLICANS ARE TAKING UP THE

MANDATE TO PROSECUTE THEM.

THE LEAKS TO THE PRESS ARE

OUTPACING CONGRESS NOW.

TWO HEADS OF

COMMITTEES

ASKED FOR AN IMMEDIATE

INVESTIGATION INTO WHETHER

CLASSIFIED MATERIAL WAS

MISHANDLED.

IN A SEPARATE MATTER, SENATE

DEMOCRATS SAY JEFF SESSIONS

SHOULD RECUSE HIMSELF AND

APPOINT A SPECIAL COUNSEL TO

INVESTIGATE WHAT GENERAL FLYNN

DID, WHO KNEW ABOUT IT, AND

WHEN.

IF THIS TRAIL LEAVES TO THE

-- LEADS TO THE OVAL OFFICE, THE

PERSON INVESTIGATING THAT TRAIL

SHOULD NOT BE THE SAME PERSON

WHO PUT PRESIDENT TRUMP THERE.

THE PRESIDENT TWEETED

DEMOCRATS HAD TO COME UP WITH A

STORE AS TO WHY THEY LOST THE

ELECTION AND SO BADLY THAT THEY

MADE UP A STORY -- RUSSIA --

FAKE NEWS.

DAN: THIS IS A COMIC-CON THE

MISSION FOR DONALD TRUMP.

THERE'S NOTHING THAT IS GOING TO

CHANGE, NO MATTER HOW WARM THE

OVEN GETS.

HE IS JUST GOING TO FIGHT AND

FIGHT AND FIGHT AND FIGHT AND

FIGHT.

MAYBE IT IS FOUR YEARS.

I DOUBT IT IS EIGHT.

IT COULD BE FOUR WEEKS.

BUT HE IS GOING TO FIGHT AND

FIGHT AND FIGHT.

HE DOES NOT CARE ABOUT MAKING

SENSE.

LISTEN TO WHAT HE SAID YESTERDAY

ABOUT THE MEDIA'S TREATMENT OF

GENERAL FLYNN.

PRESIDENT TRUMP:

I THINK HE HAS

BEEN TREATED VERY UNFAIRLY BY

THE MEDIA.

AS I CALL IT, THE FAKE MEDIA, IN

MANY CASES.

AND I THINK IT IS REALLY A SAD

THING HE WAS TREATED SO BADLY.

DAN: MR. PRESIDENT, CIVIL

QUESTION -- -- SIMPLE QUESTION

-- WHEN WAS THE LAST TIME THE

MEDIA WAS AUTHORIZED TO FIRE

YOUR NATIONAL SECURITY ADVISER?

YOU DID.

THEY DID NOT.

YOU DID.

AND YOUR PRESS SECRETARY SEAN

SPICER, AFTER CLEANING UP

KELLYANNE CONWAY, YOUR

COMMUNICATION CONSULTANT,

WHATEVER, SAID THERE WAS A

TRUSTWORTHY RELATIONSHIP, THEN

THERE WAS A MATTER OF TRUST

BROKEN, AND THE NEXT MORNING YOU

ARE SAYING HE IS THE GREATEST

GUY IN THE WORLD AND IT IS THE

MEDIA'S FAULT.

I DO NOT KNOW WHAT THAT IS.

IS THAT AND ALL OF BRANCH TO

GENERAL FLYNN IN CASE HE DECIDES

TO TALK?

I DO NOT KNOW.

BUT IT IS A MESS, NO DOUBT ABOUT

IT.

DOES IT REFLECT ON OUR STATE AT

ALL?

LOOK AT THIS HEADLINE.

WHY SEAN SPICER IS A DISGRACE TO

RHODE ISLAND.

HERE IS AN EXAMPLE --

PROTESTING IS

BECOMIN AG

PROFESSION NOW.

IT IS NOT THESE ORGANIC

UPRISINGS WE HAVE SEEN THE LAST

SEVERAL DECADES.

THE TEA

PARTY WAS A VERY

ORGANIZED MOVEMENT.

THIS IS AN ASTROTURF MOVEMENT.

DAN: WHAT IS WRONG WITH THAT?

MR. EIL:

I WAS AT MANY OF THOSE

PROTESTS.

I WAS AT SHELDON WHITEHOUSE'S

TOWN HALL WHICH WAS SO BIG THEY

HAD TO MOVE IT OUTSIDE.

I HAVE SEEN THE VIDEOS OF

PROVIDENCE HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS

WALKING OUT ON INAUGURATION DAY.

AND I WOULD INVITE MR. SPEISER,

A NATIVE OF RHODE ISLAND, TO

WRITE COMPELLING EVIDENCE

THAT PEOPLE IN HIS HOME STATE

--

PROTESTS TOOK PLACE

AROUND THE WORLD -- JUST IN HIS

HOME STATE ALONE, I WOULD LOVE

TO SEE HIM PROVIDE EVIDENCE THAT

THESE PEOPLE WERE PAID AND WOULD

LOVE TO SEE HIM COME BACK AT THE

INEVITABLE NEXT PROTEST TO ASK

SOME OF THESE PEOPLE TO THEIR

FACE, ARE YOU PAID, AND BY WHOM?

SEAN SPICER IS A SELF-PROFESSED

MAN OF INTEGRITY.

AND MY CONDITION OF

INTEGRITY,

WHEN YOU ARE A COMMUNICATIONS

PROFESSIONAL, MEANS BEING SURE

YOU HAVE THE TRUTH BEFORE YOU

MAKE A WIDE SMEAR LIKE

SAYING

PEOPLE WHO ARE EXERCISING THEIR

FIRST-AMENDMENT CONSTITUTIONAL

RIGHT TO PROTEST, WHICH FOR NOW

IS STILL LEGAL, ARE BEING PAID

TO DO SO.

DAN: PHIL EIL

IS A JOURNALIST.

HIS LAST OPERATION WAS IN

PHOENIX, WHICH WAS A TERRIBLE

BLOW TO THE COMMUNITY TO LOSE

THAT NEWSPAPER.

YOU HAVE BEEN TEACHING,

FREELANCING, WORKING ON YOUR

BOOK.

PRODDING THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT

TO RELEASE INFORMATION SO YOU

CAN WRITE YOUR BOOK.

WE WILL CATCH UP WITH THAT LATER

IN THE BROADCAST.

YOU WRITE THIS PIECE AND SUGGEST

MR. SPICER IS ACTUALLY AN

EMBARRASSMENT TO THE STATE OF

RHODE ISLAND.

MR. EIL: I BELIEVE THAT.

DAN: HOLD THE THOUGHT.

MR. EIL: I

SPENT 17 1/2

YEARS IN

THE NAVY AND SERVED SEVERAL

MEMBERS OF CONGRESS AS A

SPOKESPERSON.

I BELIEVE THE ONE THING THAT

WHETHER YOU ARE REPUBLICAN,

DEPRESSED, YOU HAD YOUR

INTEGRITY.

IF I CANNOT COMMENT ON

SOMETHING, I AM NOT ABLE TO

DISCUSS THAT, BUT I HAVE NEVER

LIED, AND I WOULD ARGUE ANYBODY

WHO IS AN

ASPIRING COMMUNICATOR

ADHERE TO THAT, BECAUSE IF YOU

LOSE THE RESPECT AND THE TRUST

OF THE PRESS CORPS, YOU GOT

NOTHING.

DAN:

IF YOU LIE, NO ONE WANTS TO

ADMIT TO LYING.

I THINK OTHER THAN BEING A

VIOLENT CRIMINAL, LYING IS THE

WORST CHARACTER TRAIT YOU COULD

HAVE.

MR. EIL: I WOULD GIVE YOU A

DIFFERENT PHRASE.

EASILY DISAPPROVAL INFORMATION.

ON THE DAY AFTER THE

INAUGURATION, SEAN SPICER,

WHITE

HOUSE PRESS SECRETARY WHO WE

JUST SAW IN THAT CLIP, WENT OUT

IN FRONT OF THE FANCY, THE

ICONIC LEFT TURN, FAMOUS WHITE

HOUSE BRIEFING ROOM, AND HE

PROCEEDED TO MAKE A NUMBER OF

CLAIMS THAT FOR ANYBODY WITH AN

INTERNET ACCOUNT AND ACCESS TO

GOOGLE WERE EASILY DISPROVE A

WILL.

I WILL GIVE HIM THE BENEFIT OF

THE DOUBT AND SAY HE WAS NOT

LYING, BUT THAT AS I SAY IN THE

PIECE IS THE MOST FAMOUS

SPOKESMAN IN THE WORLD.

THAT WAS HIS FIRST DAY ON THE

JOB.

IN THE WORDS OF "THE WASHINGTON

POST," WHICH GAVE HIM FOUR

PINOCCHIOS FOR HIS

PERFORMANCE,

THE FIRST TIME THERE WAS A FLOOR

COVERING ON THE MALL, NOT THE

BIGGEST ISSUE, THAT WAS NOT

TRUE.

HE SAID THE CROWD EXTENDED TO

THE WASHINGTON MONUMENT.

THAT WAS NOT TRUE.

HE QUOTED FALSE NUMBERS ABOUT

THE NUMBER OF PEOPLE USING

TRANSPORT THAT THEY IN D.C.

THAT WAS NOT TRUE.

HE SAID IT WAS THE

LARGEST

GATHERING AROUND THE WORLD.

THE FIRST DAY ON HIS JOB, I AS

A

JOURNALIST IN HIS HOME STATE,

SOMEONE WHO MAKES HIS LIVING

TRYING TO GET TO THE TRUTH OF

THINGS,

I WAS EMBARRASSED BY

THAT.

AND I ARGUE IN THIS PIECE THAT I

PROBABLY AM NOT THE ONLY ONE.

IN A STATE THAT HAS

WORLD-RENOWNED COLLEGES AND

UNIVERSITIES, IN A DATE THAT HAS

A NEWSPAPER THAT HAS WON

PULITZER PRIZES, THAT PEOPLE

BELIEVE CLIMATE CHANGE ISRAEL.

THAT TO ME WAS A SHAMEFUL

PERFORMANCE, AND IT HAS NOT

GOTTEN MUCH BETTER SINCE THEN.

DAN: I DO NOT KNOW HIM.

HE ACTUALLY HAS A RELATIONSHIP

WITH CHANNEL 12, MY EMPLOYER,

AND FOX PROVIDENCE.

PATRICK LITTLE WENT DOWN TO

VISIT HIM.

YOU SHOULD CHECK WPRI.COM FOR

THAT ESSAY.

WE HAD OUR FIRST EVER SKYPE COME

FROM CHANNEL 12.

SO HE HAS

GIVEN A WINK TO RHODE

ISLAND FOR HIS COVERAGE, AND I

THINK THAT IS TERRIFIC.

I'M NOT READY TO SAY --

LOOK, I

THINK HE IS JUST WAY OVER HIS

HEAD AND SO MISSED MASTS --

MISMATCHED FOR THE JOB.

THE PRESS SECRETARY HAS ALWAYS

BEEN SOMEBODY WHO COULD POSITION

THE PRESIDENT IN THE MOST

CREDIBLE WAY AND BE DISCIPLINED

ABOUT IT.

HE FIGHTS HIS

PARTNER HARDER

THAN DONALD TRUMP DOES, AND SO

HE HAS AN INCORRECT DISPOSITION

FOR THIS PARTICULAR JOB.

I DO NOT KNOW IF IT WERE FLEXON

RHODE ISLAND.

YOU ARE HAVING --

I DO KNOW IF

IT REFLECTS ON RHODE ISLAND.

MR. EIL: FROM A FACTUAL

PERSPECTIVE, WE HAVE CORRUPT

POLITICIANS.

DAN: IT WAS A BEAUTIFUL ESSAY

AND REMINDED ME WHAT KIND OF A

POWERFUL PLACE THIS IS.

WE HAVE A REPUTATION FOR SOME

STUFF, AND SEAN SPICER IS HARDLY

A DIRECT EMBARRASSMENT TO THE

Is Heaven Your Reward? - Duration: 27:48.

Millions believe that when they die they will "go to heaven."

Is heaven the reward of the saved?

Have your departed loved ones gone there?

Will you?

Do you have proof?

Are there plain scriptures to the contrary?

Yes—and you are about to hear many!

The World to Come.

The Restored Church of God presents David C. Pack.

By what authority have countless millions believed that they are bound for heaven when

they die?

What assurance do they have?

Be honest.

You probably consider yourself a Christian.

You certainly want to be saved.

You have probably also been assured that you will go to heaven some day.

Should you not demand proof that heaven is really what you seek—and where you will

go?

It is about time you know if you will spend all eternity in heaven!

Romans 10 verse 9 states, "That if you shall confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus, and

shall believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead, you shall be saved."

Verse 13 adds, "For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved."

Certain popular verses are routinely cited to validate the simplicity of just believing

in Christ to be saved.

This makes salvation seem routine and easy.

Heaven becomes little more than an assumption in a formula that virtually every professing

Christian takes for granted: "Believe in Jesus, go to heaven."

Yet when a famous evangelist was asked, "What will we do in heaven?" he answered, "I

don't know, but it will be wonderful."

Such ignorance!—and if he does not know this much, how can he "know" it will be

wonderful?

Answers like this are why people assume they will "ride clouds"—"walk the streets

of gold before the pearly gates"—"play harps"—"grow wings"—or generally

"roll around heaven all day."

You've heard them all.

All of these ideas are manmade—they are fiction!

The Bible teaches none of them—yet almost everyone believes them as fact.

So, let's get the facts—the truth—of what God teaches.

One of the fundamental rules of Bible study is to always start with the clearest scriptures

on any subject.

Then fit all less clear scriptures into the basic overall picture that has been established.

The subject of going to heaven is a classic example of the need to start with the most

plain, obvious verses.

We will examine a number.

Perhaps the plainest scripture in the Bible regarding "going to heaven" does not even

mention the word heaven.

Few know of this most important verse: "Blessed are the meek: for they shall inherit the earth."

Have you ever heard even one minister say that God's purpose for Christians is to

"inherit the Earth"?

I doubt it.

And yet there it is—and at the very beginning of the New Testament.

A second plain scripture adds another element.

The apostle John recorded: "And has made them [the saints] unto our God kings and priests:

and they [still the saints] shall reign on the earth."

The reward of God's saints is to inherit future rulership "on the earth"—as "kings

and priests."

Now that's plain!

I'll ask again: Have you ever heard a minister say that God's purpose for you is to "reign

on the Earth"—as a "king priest"?

Be honest—of course not!

You must at least admit that becoming a king is more appealing than riding clouds, playing

harps or rolling around heaven for eternity.

Now, will you believe the plain words of the Bible—or continue in popular but baseless

assumptions?

Now go to the Old Testament.

The prophet Daniel, amplifying the saints' role as kings and priests, writes about the

Return of Christ and the establishing of God's kingdom on Earth.

Before examining three key verses, some background is important.

Before Jesus' Return, God will officially grant Him the authority to rule the world.

Notice: "And there was given Him [Jesus Christ] dominion, and glory, and a kingdom."

Where will this kingdom be?

Daniel answers, "...that all people, nations, and languages, should serve Him: His dominion

is an everlasting dominion, which shall not pass away, and His kingdom that which shall

not be destroyed."

It will be on Earth.

But how will God rule the peoples and nations of Earth?

"But the saints of the Most High shall take the kingdom, and possess the kingdom forever,

even forever and ever."

The Christian's ultimate destiny is to join Christ and share rulership in the kingdom

of God over all nations and peoples on Earth!

Now verse 22: "...and judgment was given to the saints of the Most High; and the time

came that the saints possessed the kingdom."

And verse 27: "And the kingdom and dominion, and the greatness of the kingdom under the

whole heaven, shall be given to the people of the saints of the Most High...and all dominions

shall serve and obey Him."

Christ and the saints will rule peoples and nations on Earth.

You have surely heard Christ referred to as "King of kings and Lord of lords."

Now you know why!

Let's confirm where this rulership takes place.

Jesus states, "And he that overcomes, and keeps My works unto the end, to him will I

give power over the nations: and he shall rule them with a rod of iron...even as I received

of My Father," and "to him that overcomes will I grant to sit with Me in My throne..."

Christians are overcomers.

They are not idle, "just believing" in Jesus and waiting for heaven.

They recognize that they are in training to become teachers and rulers!

This is why the apostle Jude wrote, "Enoch also...prophesied of these, saying, Behold,

the Lord comes with ten thousands of His saints, to execute judgment upon all..."

What could be plainer than these verses?

When Jesus returns, the saints rule with Him!

Together, they will reign over the entire world!

Let's turn the coin over.

We have seen what Christ says is the calling and reward of a Christian—but did He ever

say what it is not?

Did Jesus make any plain statements about men in heaven?

He did, and in stunning clarity!

He said, "And no man has ascended up to heaven, but He that came down from heaven,

even the Son of man which is in heaven."

There it is!

Jesus did address people going to heaven.

Take this verse for exactly what He said, neither adding to nor taking from it.

"no man" (not a single one) has gone to heaven!

Do you believe Him?

Or do you believe the ministers of this world who virtually suggest, with their ideas about

salvation, that Christ was misleading or did not know what He was talking about?

Now think of all God's servants who had lived during the 4,000 years prior to Jesus'

statement.

They cannot be in heaven.

So says Christ!

If heaven is the reward of the saved, then none of these men made it.

They all must have failed!

Every one of them missed out on salvation.

But, of course, they did not fail.

Heaven is not the reward of the saved.

Notice that verse 13 comes only three verses prior to the most universally quoted passage

in the Bible—John 3:16: "For God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten

Son, that whosoever believes in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life."

Why is almost everyone willing to believe this verse while virtually no one believes

what is said just three verses earlier?

Now ask: If all the Old Testament figures are not in heaven, where are they?

The apostle Peter answers when speaking about King David: "Men and brethren, let me freely

speak unto you of the patriarch David, that he is both dead and buried, and his sepulcher

[his tomb] is with us unto this day."

You have almost certainly heard the common phrase "dead and buried."

It comes from this passage and is a reference to David's whereabouts!

Some believe Peter's statement was incomplete or he just forgot David was in heaven.

This is a ridiculous twisting of the verse.

Here is what he said five verses later, removing all doubt: "For David is not ascended into

the heavens..."

This is a direct statement.

David is not in heaven.

Yet God said that David was "a man after Mine own heart."

If heaven is the reward of the saved, and David did not make it, then nobody is going

to make it.

David is in the grave awaiting the resurrection of the dead, when the just receive their eternal

inheritance.

When God calls people to repentance, and they are baptized, He gives them His Holy Spirit.

It is this Spirit within the mind that makes one a Christian.

Notice: "For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, they [not anyone else] are the sons

of God."

This much is clear.

What is not so clear—or even known—to most is what verse 17 adds: "And if children,

then heirs; heirs of God, and joint-heirs with Christ; if so be that we suffer with

him, that we may be also glorified together."

A true follower of Christ and the Bible is an heir with Jesus Christ!

Heirs are not yet inheritors.

An heir is one who later inherits what has been promised to him.

We have seen that Christians "inherit the earth"—and "rule with Christ."

How, when, where and why does this take place?

Once the answers are known, the counterfeit salvation about heaven, taught by almost every

professing Christian church, collapses for the fiction that it is!

How does one become a "joint-heir with Christ"?

Did you realize that a Christian is a child of Abraham?

Probably not.

Yet Paul said this to the Gentile Galatians: "Know you therefore that they which are

of faith, the same are the children of Abraham."

The book of Galatians calls Abraham "the father of the faithful."

This is because those "of faith" are his "children."

Understanding the phrase "children of Abraham" is key to understanding what Christians will

inherit.

Long ago, God made a promise to Abraham.

Notice: "Now to Abraham and his seed were the promises made..."

This speaks of specific promises to Abraham and "his seed" or his children.

Here is how this is tied to Christians: "And if you be Christ's, then are you Abraham's

seed, and heirs according to the promise."

This is a fascinating statement.

All faithful Christians are heirs—not yet inheritors—to whatever was promised to Abraham.

Grasp this.

Your salvation is tied to this promise!

Next, you need to know what was promised to Abraham.

What was it?

The answer is all-important since it explains how you will spend eternity!

Jesus' role, at His First Coming, had a direct bearing on this

supremely important matter.

Notice: "Now I say that Jesus Christ was a minister of the circumcision for the truth

of God, to [get this!] confirm the promises made unto the fathers."

Christ's sacrifice did this.

Now let's identify who the "fathers" are.

Acts 3 verse 13 holds the answer: "The God of Abraham, and of Isaac, and of Jacob, the

God of our fathers, has glorified His Son Jesus."

The fathers referred to are Abraham, Isaac and Jacob.

You will inherit whatever was promised to them—not some invention devised by the imaginations

of men who neither search nor believe the Bible.

Abraham was obedient—faithful—in all things.

Whatever God told him to do, he did.

Because Christians also faithfully obey God (see Acts 5:32), this is another way in which

he is a father, in type, to them.

Let's begin with what God told him to do: "Now the Lord had said unto Abram, Get you

out of your country, and from your kindred, and from your father's house, unto a land

[note that word] that I will show you."

It adds, "...So Abram departed."

He obeyed God without question, setting an example for every Christian.

Obedience qualified Abraham to inherit the promises—and it can qualify you, too.

The entire earth was the land to be given to Abraham.

Notice this: "our father Abraham...For the promise, that he [Abraham] should be the heir

of the world..."

Now you know why we started with Matthew 5:5, "the meek...shall inherit the earth."

It is the whole earth—the world—to which Christians are "heirs."

This will happen because God keeps His promises!

God's promise to Abraham was conditional.

He had to prove that he was obedient to whatever he was instructed to do.

God commanded him to sacrifice his only son, Isaac.

Without hesitation, he set out to do exactly what God said.

Notice: "...because you have done this thing [God says], and have not withheld your son,

your only son...I will multiply your seed as the stars of the heaven, and as the sand

which is upon the sea shore; and your seed shall possess the gate of his enemies; And

in your seed [your children] shall all the nations of the earth be blessed [why?]; because

you have obeyed my voice."

At this point, the promise became unconditional.

Abraham obeyed God in every matter and so must you to inherit what was promised to him.

God then included Abraham's son, Isaac, in the promise.

Isaac's son Jacob was also later included.

Where, in any of these scriptures describing God's promises, is a single reference to

heaven?

God promised that "all nations" would be blessed through Abraham.

This means the promise of salvation is open to all, including Gentiles.

Paul wrote this to the primarily Gentile congregation at Rome.

Notice: "But glory, honor, and peace, to every man that works good, to the Jew first,

and also to the Gentile."

The promise was "to the Jew first."

The covenants and the promises of God are clearly made to Israel.

This is also found in Romans: "Who are Israelites; to whom pertains the adoption, and the glory,

and the covenants, and the giving of the law, and the service of God, and the promises."

But if the promises are only made to Israelites, how are Gentiles included?

Paul explains this to the mainly Gentile-born Ephesian congregation.

Let's read carefully: "Wherefore remember, that you being in time past Gentiles in the

flesh..."

Paul explained that the Greek Ephesians were only Gentiles "in the past."

Upon conversion, they became spiritual Israelites.

The next verse makes this clearer: "That at that time [the past, before conversion]

you were without Christ, being aliens from the commonwealth of Israel, and strangers

from the covenants of promise, having no hope, and without God in the world."

I grew up believing that all the Israelites were Jews (that's false, they're only

one of 12 tribes)—that I was a Gentile—and that Christianity is basically a Gentile religion.

The truth of the Bible is that Gentiles must become spiritual Israelites.

Since most modern descendants of Israel (or Jacob) think they are Gentiles, the world

believes the very opposite of what the Bible actually teaches.

In other words, those who are actually physical Israelites (and professing Christians) think

that upon accepting Jesus they became "spiritual" or "Christian" or "saved" Gentiles.

The truth is that those who really are physical Gentiles can only be true Christians by becoming

spiritual Israelites!

Can you see how God's truth seems upside down to the world?

The Gentile Ephesians had become spiritual Israelites.

They went from being "strangers" from God, His promise and without hope, to being

included in God's Plan.

Notice: "But now in Christ Jesus you who sometimes were far off are made near by the

blood of Christ..." and "Now therefore you are no more strangers and foreigners,

but fellowcitizens with the saints, and of the household of God."

Recall Jesus said, "...no man has ascended up to heaven."

In John, He twice confirmed this, telling His disciples "[Where] I go, you cannot

come."

Moments later, He added, "I go [to heaven] to prepare a place for you."

But exactly where is the place He is preparing?

Some assume He meant heaven.

This is because they do not read the very next verse: "And if I go and prepare a place

for you, I will come again."

Christians will not join Christ in heaven—He will "come again" to Earth.

The rest of verse 3 removes all doubt about where Christians will be: "...that where

I am [Christ is], there [not anywhere else] you may be also."

We will be with Christ in the place that He has "prepared."

Again, where is this prepared place?

In Matthew 25, Jesus describes His Return to "...sit upon the throne of His glory:

and before Him shall be gathered all nations."

He is pictured in this parable of the sheep and goats as ruling all the nations of the

earth.

At that point, He says to the saints (get this), "Come, you blessed of My Father,

inherit the kingdom prepared for you."

We are to inherit the kingdom of God.

What a marvelous future for the saints.

If men would only take Christ's words for exactly what He says!

Will you grasp them—understand them—and believe them?

When the kingdom of God is established, the whole world will learn God's truth.

Only a few now know of the peace, happiness and abundance that come from obeying God and

living His Way.

Eventually, universal prosperity, joy and peace will literally "break out" all over

the world.

Everyone will be taught God's wonderful law of love.

Satan will be bound, sickness will disappear and sin will not be tolerated.

Now when do Christians become inheritors—and no longer heirs?

Notice this remarkable statement.

Every Christian must grasp and live by it: "These all died in faith [all past Christians,

including the fathers], not having received the promises, but having seen them afar off,

and were persuaded of them, and embraced them, and confessed that they were strangers and

pilgrims on the earth."

The land that Abraham, Isaac and Jacob sojourned in never became theirs during their lifetimes.

They died "in faith," but they did see God's promises "afar off."

Jesus taught the gospel of the kingdom of God.

As with the truth of salvation, the ministers of this world have created a substitute gospel

about the Person of Jesus.

But the truth is that Jesus announced that an all-powerful, world-ruling supergovernment

would one day come to Earth.

It would be preceded by a time of terrible world trouble and confusion, however—our

time now!

The saints would receive their inheritance at His Return, and the establishing of His

government.

Honest seekers of truth cannot get around the plain meaning of the Bible!

Jesus told Nicodemus that, "Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of

God."

When Nicodemus was confused by this, He added, "That which is born of the flesh is flesh"

and "that which is born of the Spirit is spirit."

God's Word teaches that a resurrection of the dead occurs at Christ's Return.

Some will not believe this though, preferring to believe the dead go straight to heaven.

Paul wrote, "But I would not have you to be ignorant, brethren, concerning them which

are asleep."

Most are completely ignorant about the resurrection.

Now notice why Paul taught this: "...that you sorrow not, even as others which have

no hope."

Now let's see when the resurrection occurs: "For the Lord Himself shall descend from

heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump[et] of God:

and the dead in Christ shall rise first: then we which are alive and remain shall be caught

up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever

be with the Lord."

Clouds are only a few miles above the earth.

Airplanes fly much higher than this.

So this is not a picture of people in heaven, but rather of those who are resurrected to

be with Christ on Earth—where the clouds are.

Remember, Christ said, "I will come again."

Isaiah in the Old Testament also wrote, "The Lord God will come with strong hand,

and His arm shall rule for Him: behold, His reward is with Him,

and His work [this Work of God you have come in contact with] before Him."

Of that time, Daniel said, "And many of them that sleep in the dust of the earth shall

awake...to everlasting life."

The knowledge that the dead are asleep in the ground has been understood long before

the New Testament.

Do you now understand why Abraham, Isaac, Jacob and David and so many others have not

inherited God's promised reward?

They are dead—asleep in the grave—awaiting promises that they only saw "afar off"

during their lifetimes.

Without a resurrection, none of them—or you and I—can inherit anything.

All that they did would have been in "vain."

Ask yourself some questions.

Do you believe that the clarity and number of the scriptures you have read—and there

are many more—can be ignored?

Do you believe they can be explained away?

Will you do this?

Most people read the Bible with preconceived ideas.

They study it to find verses that support what they already believe.

Heaven is a classic example.

Vast millions would not believe they were going to heaven unless they had been told

"the Bible says so."

By now, you know the Bible says no such thing.

However, there are various supposed "proof texts" that are most often cited to prove

the "saved go to heaven" fallacy.

To understand how easily these verses are correctly explained, and to learn much more

about the subject, read this thorough booklet, Do the Saved Go to Heaven?

Heaven has never been the reward of Christians.

Your real destiny is infinitely greater—to rule the nations beside Jesus Christ—on

Earth!—as a resurrected spirit-member of God's family.

What could be more incredible?
