Leaders and Listening to God
by Tom James on 10/31/19
- By searching and listening for God's talking to us and teaching us, and opening up our Souls for God to enter!
- By developing the characteristic of seeing God and His actions in nature, friends, daily life at all levels, and especially in other Persons!
- By recognizing that all things in our lives that are good and wonderful and helpful are the actions of God and about God. We are to recognize that all good things come from God!
- By leading others to seek God's Word in their own lives, by being a good example of God in our daily thoughts and actions, and crediting Blessings and all things Good as those that are inspired by God!
- By praying together in Religious services with fellow Seekers of God and those anxious to follow God's Will!
- By acknowledging our need for God by practicing humility for our sinfulness and earthly limitations, never ceasing to seek help in order to someday be with, and a part of, God!
- By Praying, Praying, Praying!

Leaders and the Souls of Aborted Baby Persons
by Tom James on 09/01/19So what does God (the Supreme Being) do with the millions of baby Persons killed in the womb each year? Before we hope the wisdom of God will answer the question for us, let us frame the issue.
Leadership and the Unborn's Sacred Rite to Self-Determination
by Tom James on 08/20/19
If there is a Supreme Being (God) that gives us a soul, which gives us the Sacred Rite of Self-Determination, which gives us the option to choose to love God for all eternity, then we are given that soul at conception!
God's plan is for each of us Persons to choose to worship Him, serve our fellow Persons, and choose the Good in all things. That CONTRACT is as much our Personhood as our DNA.
We Persons are chosen by God from all eternity to live in the Light of God.
Who can dare to cut short and destroy a wonder-filled baby, that God has given an eternal destiny?
Dear Mother of an unborn,
If you are planning to kill your child, at least Baptize it now. Pour water over your belly and say, “I baptize you (NAME!!!) in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. Amen.”
Then for the rest of your life, pray for your child and yourself, for the infinite Mercy of God to take your child into His eternal embrace and forgive you your sin!
Dear Mother of an aborted child of God,
I believe that the infinite Mercy of God might hear your prayer for the soul of your child to be baptized by You! Beg God to let you baptize (NAME!!!), “in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. Amen.”
It's best to make this prayer in the moment before being killed, if possible, but there is no time with God. God CAN make this baptism effective, because for God, everything is NOW! Hope, believe, and pray for (NAME) the rest of your life and for yourself.
Leaders and the Sacred Rite of Self-Determination
by Tom James on 08/13/19
Why did the Supreme Being (God) give us the gift of Personhood? This gift of a soul gives us the ability to choose good and evil, or basically to choose to direct our life choices to the Good:
-Good habits,
-Good friends,
-Good ideas,
-Good careers,
-Ways to help others,
-Etc.
So that we can clearly choose to be with God for all eternity!
That's IT!!!
SO!
All Leaders everywhere have a Sacred Duty to protect all Persons' Sacred Rite of Self-Determination, and to Lead all to make every decision one that helps and leads us on the path to God!
HOW?
Leaders can lead Persons to:
-Choose democracy, which protect the Sacred Rite of Self-Determination and fight all forms of tyranny such as Communism, which deny Personhood!
-Choose a religion based on a loving God and on loving our neighbor, rather than one that denies the Personhood of anyone who does not follow their definition of their tribal God.
-Choose to avoid drugs, alcohol, lust, greed, anger, hatred, controlling others rather than a life of service to others,
SO!
Dear Leaders,
Have Hope, Love, and Faith in God. Use every waking hour and ounce of energy to fight the good fight and protect the Sacred Rite of Self-Determination for ALL PERSONS ON EARTH!
Leadership and Crises
by Tom James on 08/09/19
All Leaders from heads of state to parents of families are either directly or indirectly impacted by the current overwhelming international and local crises, such as:
-The tech revolutions and the pace of change,
-Fear of WMD proliferation,
-Acts of mass murder caused by religions zealots and hate-filled people,
-Worldwide migration of peoples,
-Overwhelming population growth,
-Power-hungry and power-mad Leaders of countries,
-Collapse of good Core Value systems such as organized religion and good families,
-Disappearance of trust in political life causing a rise in “not getting things done,”
-Increase in violence at all levels of society,
-History of families, towns, countries, and individuals being rewritten by cynical teachers of bad values,
-Rise in evil drug empires based on corruption.
Etcetera!

An Open Letter to Believers in One God
by Tom James on 07/21/19
Beloved Muslim, Jewish, and Christian Leaders,
Act now, as brothers under one God, and save the planet!
As a dramatic, symbolic act of this Brotherhood, hold a joint worship service of the one and only Supreme Being in the mosque on the Holy Mount that is sacred to all 3 religions.
DO IT NOW!!! While there's still time!!
The Armageddon looms closer with each new hate-filled war.
Remember: Muslims and Jews have a common Father—Abraham—who worshiped one God. Also, Christianity was started by Jews and shares a belief in the truths regarding one God contained in the Jewish holy writing,
You can, if you only will, drop and leave behind centuries-old beliefs and hatred. Let all Persons, no matter their religion, become loving brothers and sisters under a loving God (Supreme Being).
Leadership and Being a Celebrity
by Tom James on 07/16/19
Does it seem to you that the dream of being a celebrity and the reality are so different?
Let's consider what happens when you become celebrated.
The first thing that happens, the reason I chose this topic: you cease to be a Person!!
You are now owned by your fans and treated as an object that must:
-Be available,
-Be smiling,
-Give autographs cheerfully,
-Continue to be a great artist, politician, military hero, entrepreneur, financier, or athlete to satisfy your fans' NEEDS and not YOURS!
-Is it any wonder that over time, celebrities fall into depression, drug and alcohol abuse, anger and resentment at life, the trap of ever-increasing performance expectation, and being unable to summon the energy to overcome obstacles and be positive?
Solution?!
Being GROUNDED.
For the Good, ethical Leader, being a grounded celebrity means that being celebrated is a way to serve others as a Leader. By being joyful, patient, kind, and cheerful to those Persons who ask you to handle these pressures so well, they will seek out and find the cause of your grounded life as a Person. This groundedness can only come from a goal in life that surpasses and supercedes all other goals—eternal celebration with God!
For those celebrities who define themselves as non-Persons, or ignore or reject the destiny and purpose of life—to prepare for choosing, loving, and being loved for and by the Supreme Being—they have no hope.
Being celebrated is a stormy sea of gigantic waves with a sinking boat!
