WE GET LETTERS Hugs and Kisses -- Sticks y
and Stones
B : Chuck-JOHNEL Claudia-MARIE on October 11, 2012. ( Quote)". . .Here is why I responded as I did (Regarding the joke: "I'm a Catholic and I can't commit suicide, but I plan to drink myself to death."). My first response to the joke after reading it was absolute amazement that such would be in the NOP newsletter, and could it be enjoyed by the NOP? A jesting at those ofthe Catholic faith who are in such dire circumstances that suicide is being contemplated, and about suicide, seemed so wholly other to what we are about in the NOP that I was nearly incredulous at the joke's inclusion. Contemplating suicide is no joke. Some of us may well have dear ones who have done just that or who are contemplating committing suicide. Believing that all in the newsletters is checked before being printed and mailed out, and of course having my own opinion of what constitutes honoring God's children, I did conclude that there is/may be some anti-catholic bias somewhere. And my first written response to the joke was written in that vein. That has not been rebutted, regarding possible anti-catholic bias, but many assurances from writers from the NOP that no offense was meant, has been given. This joke was such a shock that I had to write in defense of all who are Catholic Christians as this kind of joking can tend to inculcate and deepen attitudes against Catholicism by those who see and know only the wa rt s and sins, and not the whole history of the defense and love of Jesus Christ throughout the history of the Catholic Church. The Catholic Church is made up of human beings and we all know carnal nature tries to get the upper hand whenever it can, and it has done so, throughout the Church's history, but more, the love and truth of Jesus Christ has prevailed through all of the ages. I expect the full import of the 'joke", the suicide angle, was not realized when it was put in the newsletter, and my hope is that those who enjoy "Catholic" jokes will avoid these jokes which impugn the character of the Catholic Church and of those of us who are Catholic, from the point of heart of loving those who belong to Jesus and of loving one's neighbor as oneself There are funny Catholic jokes that are fine, I am sure.

Claudia-MARIE on October II. 2012. (Quote continued) Also, I believed that writing publicly was the way to go as the newsletter was publicly given out for all to read, even could be given to non-NOP as an example of what is going on now. In response to the many who were so concerned about me taking offense, I did not and do not see this as a private matter between me and who put the joke in the newsletter, as the effect of the joke is not only personal but also about how Catholicism and suicide are understood. To my personal knowledge from the notes written to me about this, only concern has been shown by members of the NOP that I not take offense at Chuck-JOHNEL, for it was written to me that certainly C-J did not mean any offense by the joke. No mention of the content of the joke about the suicide as being the joke or of the jesting at Catholicism was taken to task by the writers to me, although one writer did say that he thought I did well
to voice my objection. All of us need to discern and not just accept what is given, no matter from whom. And when wrong is done, it must needs be addressed in Christ's love. It would be so heartening if C-J has already been inundated with notes and letters complaining about the "joke", then I would say that gladness fills my heart for that! By the way, in a note if needed for anyone, ever so many of us who are Catholic follow Jesus Christ and are led by His Holy Spirit and are not following man. All thanks be to God for that!! ...We in the NOP are, warts and all, Christians in Christ. God bless you and us all dearly." (Unquote) Reply from Leith to Claudia-MARIE: Dear Claudia-MARIE, I personally apologize for offending you. I am sorry for putting in a joke from the book that caused offense to any of God's children. When I read the joke, I did not see it from a "Catholic" perspective, but rather from a carnal perspective, and it would apply to any denomination of faith or beliefs. I know that my broad range of humor is not the same as others. I am clarifying also, that I am not against any faith or any human being. I love people, and I respect everyone's faith, Catholic, Mormon, and all the others. I love Catholics and have no problems at all with them or their beliefs, and have many Catholic and Mormon friends and family too. The joke was in my mind not to be taken seriously for it was a joke, so I did not find it offensive. Please consider forgiving my offense to you. I will be more selective about the jokes I type. Thank you. Reply (from Chuck-JOHNEL to Claudia -MARIE: I've already apologized for the offense although not intended in any way. Leith selects the jokes or observations from several different books as she transcribes the letters we receive. I prayerfully considered that particular "observation" and considered changing it; but then I recognized that it was NOT an attack on the Roman Catholic Church. Rather, it was an observation of the difference between a believer (in this case a Roman Catholic) observing the "Ietter

Re ! roan Chuck-JOHNEL(continued) of the law" versus the "Spirit of the law."
Oh, by the way, although about 40% of the intercessors in the N.Q.F. who are likely Catholic got that WE GET LETTERS, only one sister in Christ took exception. It would have been the same if that person in the "observation" was Lutheran, Methodist, Baptist, etc. as generally all denominations regard suicide as a sin. It is also known that suicide in the Catholic Church is considered a serious sin worthy of hellfire. It seemed to me that this "observation" in that story gave considerable credit to the Catholic Church. It would also be difficult that I'd have an anti-Catholic bias in that I was born into the Roman Catholic faith and raised as one. I saw no harm in the "observation of human carnality" (it was not ajoke) and so I saw it as a lesson of the way some brethren play foot loose and fancy freely with their own belief systems. Give a man afish and he eats for one day. Teach a man to fish, and he eats for a lifetime unless he's a vegetarian. David Corrado Angus-JONA THAN & Eula- VICTORIA On August 2. 2012 . (Quote) "Dear
JOHNEL & TONI; Greetings to you both in the Precious Sweet Name of JESUS CHRIST! We pray that this letter finds each and every one of you in wonderful Spirit in Christ and are prospering in Jesus Christ in His wonderful riches. Thank you very much for the recent Newsletter that we received about two weeks ago now I believe. It is always so good to hear from you! Oh, we are doing well, we are both exhausted from this Prayer Operation, but we never take time off from praying. We know how serious this work of prayer is. I remember Jesus' Word and have that as a point of focus in my daily prayers and living. "IT IS TIME MY PEOPLE LEARN TO WALK WITH ME IN THE SPIRIT, ON A MOMENT TO MOMENT DAILY BASIS, TAKING ONE STEP AT A TIME WITH A VISION OF FOCUS UPON ME AND MY PERFECT WILL FOR YOU (quote in part only). DO NOT WEARY IN WELL DOING." Folks can't understand how Angus and myself can do all that we do around here. They are baffled and they don't know the half of it. If we were not looking and focusing on Christ Jesus, there is no way we would be able to accomplish all that we need to. They say to me "how do you do it? You work twelve hour shifts and get up at 4:30 in the morning? They say, I could never do that!" It's all in walking in the Spirit and looking to Jesus. I realize that now, I never really thought about it before until folks kept pointing it out to us, just never really thought about it but knew it wasn't in our strength indeed.

Angus-JONA THAN & Eula-VICTORIA On August 2, 2012.(Quote continued We realize JOHNEL that you have a lot on the go and had to discontinue the monthly meetings that you once did in the past. From all the countless tapes/CDs that have been made and the countless anointed teachings, revelations, prophetic word/teachings that have come forth, there is more than enough to keep us going, and the ongoing further revelation by the Holy Spirit. I listen to the old tapes every so often when I am home doing housework and other chores, and let me tell you how blessed I am the second time around, and things that I probably missed the first time that the Holy Spirit brings to my attention. Praise Heavenly Father God/Lord Jesus for that! Amen! ..." (Unquote)

John H. On August 6, 2012. ( Quote) "Dear Chuck & Nancy, Thank you for all your unseen (by men) work of intercession and spiritual warfare. Sometimes I feel like telling pastors and brothers how much your obedience in the past has saved America's church, but few believe. I have only two men I can share the truth with in this area, but that is better than none. Thank you for saving us from WWIII before I was a Christian (I was a Jehovah Witness from 1970-1991). Thank you for stopping the volcano in California. Thank you for the 1987 and the 2011-2012 battle in the 4' realm. I continue joining you daily, but I am still a lamb (to me, anyway) since I joined the NOP in early 2000's. ...As time goes by, if you have time and newsletter space, could you tell us as much as you know about the LOUD VOICE Christians? I think I know one. He is 40+ and is positive, and only obeys what he hears from Jesus, and yet has barely a
place to put his head. Time will tell us, he credits God for everything." (Unquote) Reply by Chuck-JOHNEL: Not much to tell. These (A LOUD VOICE) are those
who will manifest Christ in their lifetime, and like us are sent into this world to do a work of preparing for JESUS' Return. The A LOUD VOICE are normal people but unusual in that they are wholly given to Christ. JESUS spewed me them in the 1980's and I reviewed them in their ranks and formations. They were (male and female) rock solid in Christ, of fierce countenance who shone with the Light of Christ visibly In The Spirit.' When confronting demons `In The Spirit' I saw that the demons greatly feared them and drew back in terror, Why? The demons could see the Light and

In recent battles `In The Spirit', they were fbrined in fighting formations (about 36,000 strong) and when we advanced in a fighting line the demons literally burned up and fell to ash - others drew back in terror, fearing to so much as look at them because when they did they saw JESUS Himself in them. They are in this world, even as we are. This much I can say. Thank you for your letter. The shortest distance between two points is always under cons truction. Noelie Alito
Idalia Q On August30, 2012. (Quote) "Dear Chuck-JOHNEL & Nancy-TONI, The Lord God's abundant Showers of Blessings be poured out on you, your family, and ministry. I am presently reading "Manifesting Christ" June 29, 2012 edition. There are different portions written and shared by you, Nancy-TONI, that has indeed blessed my heart. Thank Xou, Nancy-TONI. On page 4 of Daily Prayers, June 30, 2012, "Remove The Beastman Prayer", the Holy Spirit revealed to me that a portion of that prayer has been answered. And, "that You expose the Beastman in the White House, expose him to the people that he is seen and known for what he truly is...", this portion has been answered by and through the movie being shown currently all over the United States, the "2016" movie. Praise God! .. . (September 30' letter) In your August 31, 2012 issue titled "Judgment Day" page 5, First Year of Judgment—D2, it says "There will be gold value problems". I have invested in a little gold upon your recommendation that we as believers do so, if we're able to. I don't know what to do. Should I sell the gold I have, if we face
gold value problems? Love to both of you, in His Precious Name." (Unquote) Reply b y JOHNEL: The price of gold will continue to soar but when it reaches
upwards of '$5, 000 + , for an ounce ofgold, it is time to consider selling it and buying something of' usefulness in hard times, such as things you might barter with or to meet your needs. Right now it is still a good time to buy gold. Why sell it when it reaches a high value (say $5, 000 an ounce or more'? That is because the value of the dollar will have dropped sharply to where it is near being worthless. When we reach

information that you share with us. I agree with your preaching 100%. Jesus wants you to keep having child-like faith, to protect over you perfectly. Thank you for delaying WWIII by your organized praying. Teach us how to pray against the tiny star, because scientists are saying a meteorite will come close to the earth in about 10 years, and Jesus told me many times the year 2022 will be a bad year. The late prophet Edger Casey in his book The 21 S ` Centur yProphesies of Edger Case y is saying the same things you preach. His past prophecies have been 100% accurate. Please teach us more and how to prepare for the future with Jesus. Let us know when your Staff is at full power. I want a prayer cloth anointed by the Staff when JESUS releases the power. JESUS said storms and floods are coming, and money devaluation is coming. Teach us how to get ready. Thank you for being a real prophet. God loves you! Remember me when you pray!"

I just got the last one a few days ago. I sure appreciate your online updates... I apologize but I cannot be too specific in this email. Many of the fiercest warriors I have met are all about GOD and country and their oath. Most fight for the guy beside them, not an agenda; over here the rules of the game are not in our favor. It is embarrassing to know that homes were entered and certain items were confiscated during Katrina although I do not think they were active duty folks. However, the men in olive drab and khaki were in the forefront of rescuing thousands. We pulled aircraft out of overhaul and came in behind the storm. My boss could not authorize high risk activities but told me "Chuck, go in and do what you have to do and I will back you up." Me and my crew were some of the few basically doing high

I know of olive drab-wearing doctors that spent days in chest deep water pulling people from their homes. I know jet jockeys who were manning refuel hoses so we could do our job. Yes there are bad apples yet there are many good and we need your prayers. I would like to encourage all the NOP to pray PS 91 for our fatigue wearing friends. I totally agree with your assessment of the folks coming out of faraway lands. Much of the food and water we drink is local and has its own kind of blessing. Not to mention all the different shots and who knows what else. I have already mentioned the rules of the game and some of the things you see leave a terrible lasting i mpression. You mentioned "but I believe we can do something about this spirit of death operating within the boundaries of the church." Can we ask JESUS how to address this within the boundaries of the church and for those in olive drab? To the NOP, as one who is wearing olive drab, thank you so much for your prayers. I pray the LORD bless and keep each and every one of you! In JESUS' Name, Hold The Line!"

Don B. On October 9 2012. (Quote continued for the website, it also contains PM Netanyahu's Speech at United Nations' General Assembly in New York, September 2012; a video that is very informational. I have mailed out a letter to the Church which is on the home page of the site, and will continue to email the information to the church as I find them on the Internet; I am up to about three hundred churches so far. The counter on the website was around 200 before I mailed the letter sent to the Church. There has been some feedback and around 20 people have joined the automated subscription system for the newsletters and prayer updates. In my cpanel it says there have been over 20,000 hits. Hopefully, I am driving more hits to your site also. Question: have you shared this site with the Net of Prayer on the mailing list, and/or (email list)? Will you share this with them for me? I would like to have feedback on any subject that they would choose to talk about on the site. I also feel that it would be a great value to other people visiting the site if actual members of the N.O.P. would leave comments about their experience and insight to the spiritual battles taking place, on the site. The pastors targeted with the letters have not given any feedback so far. There is a lot here to swallow, and I believe it will be hard for them to have a quick response, but I intend to get one when led to persist on it. I remember in one of the issues of "We Get Letters", a lady asking for an online version of the newsletters and why you were not approaching this.

(Quote) "Dear Chuck-JGHIVEL, Where there is love evil cannot exist, do you agree? Therefore in all due respect the love I see and feel when Ghama is with his wife and daughters is so profound it affects everyone... Common sense tells anyone the collapse (which happened before the election) that Obama walked into 4 years ago cannot be fixed in 4 years. I went through the depression in 1929 and that lasted till WWII about 22 years. The evil in our government and business is not one man but the greed and the worship of money as god instead of GOD. Besides it is the Business people that are pulling the strings in this world and not just one man. Start putting the blame on money and power as the Anti-Christ instead of any one man ...the love of that (money and power) is what is binding everyone and making the Lower Forces happy. I know the Lower Forces are out there and they know their ti me is short so they are working harder than ever to put fear into everyone and you (sorry to say) are helping them by your comments on fear of what can or can not happen. Tell your flock to say Thank You God for what we have and keep our Guardian Angels by our side and we can overcome anything... Learn to love God and not money and power!

Reply by Chuck-JOHNEL continued : in the White House, expose him to the
people that he is seen and known for what he truly is...in JESUS ' Name we bind him from doing the evil he plans against Your people, Your Church." Alyce has some right and some wrong. Yes, evil was in the government long before Beastman Obama; this Beastman is the crowning glory of that enterprise, the culmination of what they have worked for. The "evil ", a system of socialism which is truly antichrist, started with President Theodore Roosevelt followed by Woodrow Wilson with the next great step coming with Franklin D. Roosevelt. His socialist policies extended the depression many years beyond when it would have ended of its own accord. The outbreak of WWII ended the depression in spite of FDR. The first two Beastmen I met in battle in the GAP in 1982, Beastman G. Hart, Beast man
J. Kerry. We defeated these. The next (new and improved Beastmen) were Bill Clinton (whom we injured/crippled,) and Barack Obama. Keep in mind, my view of Obama is NOT based on any political position; rather I saw him in 1987 in the GAP leading a massive demon army out of hell with Satan's commission to undermine, dismantle, destroyed and eradicate America. JESUS made it plain that this man whom I saw in 1987 in the GAP (Ezekiel 22:30) ,world run for president in 21 years, note that: TWENTYONE YEARS! He appeared on the scene in 2008, 21 years from 1987
as JESUS revealed, ran for president and won the election. He has been doingjust what he was sent to do: More Americans are out of work than when he became president, the debt rose $5 Trillion (bankrupting America ,), he is shutting down oil, coal and natural gas production -just to begin to list his achievements under Satan's commission. Recently, his loving care saw 4 Americans in Libya (including an ambassador) killed as he watched, doing nothing. I saw him do the same in the GAP in 1987, he acquiesced to the outright murder of multitudes ofAmericas - ALL of whom supported and backed him. Those who look to CHRIST JESUS and trust in Hirn JESUS will care for, but Guardian Angels are powerless against this monster. Both Hitler and Stalin displayed love and affection for children, their wives, even their dogs - but in the end these Beastmen led them to death. Normal people believe that if it ain't broke, don't fix it. Engineers believe that if it ain't broke, it doesn't have enough features yet. Scott Adams
