WHERE IS DARRIN?

          Hello, my name is Connie James, my husband is Ricky (Rick) James of Coweta, Oklahoma. Rick is the second child born to David "Gene" James and "Judi" Jewel Alice  Thomasson. His youngest brother and the youngest child of seven, is Darrin Adam James. He was born March 13, 1971 in Tulsa, Oklahoma.  He grew up and attended the Coweta Public Schools, graduating May of 1989. In 1977 when Rick and I got married, Darrin was 6 years old. In 2004, he was living in Tulsa, and had been diagnosed with stomach cancer. His doctor was a Doctor Taylor. I could never find a doctor Taylor  in the Tulsa area.     
          In about 2010 I found him on Face Book. I sent him a friends request and we became friends. He was now living in Texas.  He had first visited Austin, Texas and like it, later he moved to San Antonio. He was living with and working for an Outreach Ministry and was attending an Orthodox Christian Church. In 2013 he was taking online classes at Grand Canyon University.  After he graduated he told me he planned to move to Utah to attend Holy Cross University. I never heard from him after that. I called the Outreach Ministry in San Antonio.  They told me he had been working for them, but was no longer living there. They said they could not give me his address. Here it is 2025 and I have no idea where Darrin is or if he is still alive.
          On one of his posts, he said he was coming back to Coweta for I guess his Ten Year High School Reunion.  He gave me his number to call him so my family could meet up with him and visit. I called the number, but no one ever picked up. I messaged him many times, trying to see how he was doing.  After his so called trip home, he posted that none of his family met with him for a visit. I told him I tried to call the number he gave me, but he never answered. He had been cured of his stomach cancer, but cancer had returned. From his posts I got the impression he had lymphoma cancer.  All over his body.  One of the posts he said he was very sick.  He was in the Baptist University Hospital in San Antonio.  He had went there for a chemo treatment, but he had pneumonia and was in ICU. Until the pneumonia was gone, he could not have a chemo treatment. I tried finding a number for The Baptist University Hospital, but was never successful. If I remembered right, I called one hospital, but they told me they never had a patient named Darrin James. I tried looking for a death certificate for him, I never found one in Texas or Oklahoma. 
          Just a few years back, my husband looked up his name and address. He found his name with an address in Tulsa. Then a year or so later, while Rick was driving in Tulsa, he thought he saw Darrin. I am at a standstill. His mom passed away in 2005 and his dad in 2025. None of the siblings have heard from him. I just pray he is safe and living a good life.

WHEN WAS THE MESSIAH BORN?

It is only natural for a person to adhere to conducts and beliefs that are biblically defensible.    Be ready always to give an answer to every man  that  asks you a reason of the hope that is in you with meekness and fear."   (1 Peter 3:15).                                 Christmas celebrations are generally observed to honor the supposed date of the birth of the Messiah.  But the facts are that Christ was not born on December 25.        " Christmas . . . was, according to many authorities, not cele-brated in the first centuries of the Christian church, as the Christian usage in general was to celebrate the death of remarkable persons, rather than the birth of Christ. ("Christmas",  Encyclopedia Americana).  How then, did the Romish Church fix on December 25th as Christmas-day?  Why, thus: long before the fourth century, a...

THE BOOK OF REVELATION

Many people stay away from the Book of Revelation because they find the symbolism frightening or confusing, or both!  But the Book of Revelation was meant to be a book of comfort to those caught up in the persecution at the end of the first century, says Ms Frances Taylor.  Christians in "Rome" had been blamed by Nero I for destroying much of the city.  They were often called "cannibals" because of their Eucharistic celebrations where they shared the "body and blood of Christ."  (they symbolically used bread and fruit of the vine for the body and blood.)   Domitian was another Emperor who persecuted the Christians at the end of the century; he was most likely the emperor who earned the designation "666".  The number 7 is very often mentioned in this book, which is the number that symbolizes completion and when in threes, God.  Domitian was considered the Satan, who clamed to be God, and fell short for the Christian, the greater danger was the los...
