12 " " " - 4 oz. lemon juice.
1 - 4 oz. olive oil - 4 oz. lemon juice.
Drink it right down if you can. I usually eat a
craker right after.
* Can repeat process in 1 month, or 3 months or
whenever desired or needed.
..............
Third method.
Many people have spoken to have gall stones, (JW
Also possible kidney stones.) on top of their other
problems. Here is what a top American nutrtionist told
me to do about this, simple and easily without surgery.
My whole family have done this successfully.
Drink a quart of apple juce daily for five days, This
will soften up the stones to such an extent that you
can squash them in your fingers.
On the sixth day, skip dinner and at 6 p.m take a
tablespoon full of epsom salts with water. Repeat at
8 p.m. At 10 p.m. make a cocktail of four ounces of
olive oil and four ounces of fresh squeezed lemon
juice. shake vigorously and drink right down. In the
morning yhou will pass green stones varing from the
size of grains of sand to some as large as your
thumbnail. You won't feel a thing, but will be amazed
at the results. Thousands have done this instead major
of major surgery.
In closing I would like to say that my heart goes out
to you . I don't know you but I know what you are going
through. Thousands are going through the same
experience.

Fourth Way To Get Rid Of Kidney Stones.
April 28, 2008.
I'll probably offend some of my friend in reposting
this information. I know Coke contains 6 of more
teaspoonfulls of sugar and will raise your sugar level
but this is from a friend who I trust. It may still
be a hoax but I've never tested it personally.
.......................................................
.......................................................
Hello John,
The fastest way to get rid of kidney stones
is to drink a 6 pack of Coke Classic in 20
minutes - or as much as you can to fill your
bladder.
Kidney stones are uric acid based. Coke
is very acidic - and acid dissolves acid. I
helped a buddy in extreme pain - could
barely u-inate for 3 days. It quickly
knocked the painful shards off and the stones
passed within a few hours. He was ur-nating
in about a half hour. My friend did not know
exactly when they passed because they
dissolved so completely he did not feel them
pass. I learned this about 10 years ago from
a chiropractor and naturopath - 2 different
persons. Coke is one of the many causes of
kidney stones, but in an emergency, serves in a
medicinal capacity.

This talks about the linage of Joseph and Mary.
.....................................................
.....................................................
Upon her return, Mary went to visit her parents,
Joachim and Hannah. Her two brothers and two sisters,
as well as her parents, were always very skeptical
about the d-vine mission of Je--s, though, of course,
at this time they knew nothing of the Gabriel
visitation. But Mary did confide to her sister Salome
that she thought her son was destined to become a great
teacher.
Gabriel's announcement to Mary was made the day
following the conception of Jes-- and was the only
event of supernatural occurrence connected with her
entire experience of carrying and bearing the child of
promise.
"4. JOSEPH'S DREAM"
Joseph did not become reconciled to the idea that
Mary was to become the mother of an extraordinary child
until after he had experienced a very impressive dream.
In this dream a brilliant c-lestial messenger appeared
to him and, among other things, said: "Joseph, I appear
by command of Him who now reigns on high, and I am
directed to instruct you concerning the son whom Mary
shall bear, and who shall become a great light in the
world. In him will be life, and his life shall become
the light of mankind.
He shall first come to his own people, but they will
hardly receive him; but to as many as shall receive him
to them will he reveal that they are the children of
G-d." After this experience Joseph never again wholly
doubted Mary's story of Gabriel's visit and of the
promise that the unborn child was to become a di-ine
messenger to the world.
In all these visitations nothing was said about the
house of David. Nothing was ever intimated about --sus'
becoming a "deliverer of the J-ws," not even that he
was to be the long-expected M-ssiah.
J--us was not such a Me-siah as the Je-s had
anticipated, but he was the `world's deliverer.' His
mission was to all r-ces and peoples, not to any one
group.
Joseph was not of the line of King David. Mary had
more of the Davidic ancestry than Joseph. True, Joseph
did go to the City of David, Bethlehem, to be
registered for the Roman census, but that was because,
six generations previously, Joseph's paternal ancestor
of that generation, being an orphan, was adopted by one
Zadoc, who was a direct descendant of David; hence was
Joseph also accounted as of the "house of David."
Most of the so-called Messianic prophecies of the Old
Testament were made to apply to J--us long after his
life had been lived on earth.
For centuries the H-brew prophets had proclaimed the
coming of a deliverer, and these promises had been
construed by successive generations as referring to a
new J-wish ruler who would sit upon the throne of David
and, by the reputed miraculous methods
Page 1348
of Moses, proceed to establish the -ews in Palestine as
a powerful nation, free from all foreign domination.
Again, many figurative passages found throughout the
Heb-ew scriptures were subsequently misapplied to the
life mission of Je--s.
Many Old Testament sayings were so distorted as to
appear to fit some episode of the Master's earth life.
Jes--s himself onetime publicly denied any connection
with the royal house of David. Even the passage, "a
maiden shall bear a son," was made to read, "a virgin
shall bear a son." This was also true of the many
genealogies of both Joseph and Mary which were
constructed subsequent to Michael's career on earth.
Many of these lineages contain much of the Master's
ancestry, but on the whole they are not genuine and may
not be depended upon as factual. The early followers of
Jes-- all too often succumbed to the temptation to make
all the olden prophetic utterances appear to find
fulfillment in the life of their Lord and Master.
"5. JESUS' EARTH PARENTS"
Joseph was a mild-mannered man, extremely
conscientious, and in every way faithful to the
re-igious conventions and practices of his people. He
talked little but thought much.
The sorry plight of the J-wish people caused Joseph
much sadness. As a youth, among his eight brothers and
sisters, he had been more cheerful, but in the earlier
years of married life (during Je--s' childhood) he was
subject to periods of mild sp-ritual discouragement.
These temperamental manifestations were greatly
improved just before his untimely d-ath and after the
economic condition of his family had been enhanced by
his advancement from the rank of carpenter to the role
of a prosperous contractor.
Mary's temperament was quite opposite to that of her
husband. She was usually cheerful, was very rarely
downcast, and possessed an ever-sunny disposition. Mary
indulged in free and frequent expression of her
emotional feelings and was never observed to be
sorrowful until after the sudden death of Joseph. And
she had hardly recovered from this shock when she had
thrust upon her the anxieties and questionings aroused
by the extraordinary career of her eldest son, which
was so rapidly unfolding before her astonished gaze.
But throughout all this unusual experience Mary was
composed, courageous, and fairly wise in her
relation****p with her strange and little-understood
first-born son and his surviving brothers and sisters.
--sus derived much of his unusual gentleness and
marvelous sympathetic understanding of human nature
from his father; he inherited his gift as a great
teacher and his tremendous capacity for righteous
indignation from his mother. In emotional reactions to
his adult-life environment, J--us was at one time like
his father, meditative and wor****pful, sometimes
characterized by apparent sadness; but more often he
drove forward in the manner of his mother's optimistic
and determined disposition. All in all, Mary's
temperament tended to dominate the career of the
div-ne Son as he grew up and swung into the momentous
strides of his adult life. In some particulars Je--s
was a blending of his parents' traits; in other
respects he exhibited the traits of one in contrast
with those of the other.
From Joseph J--us secured his strict training in the
usages of the Je-ish ceremonials and his unusual
acquaintance with the He-rew scriptures; from Mary he
derived a broader viewpoint of rel-gious life and a
more liberal concept of personal spiri-ual freedom.
Page 1349
The families of both Joseph and Mary were well
educated for their time. Joseph and Mary were educated
far above the average for their day and station in
life. He was a thinker; she was a planner, expert in
adaptation and practical in immediate execution. Joseph
was a black-eyed brunet. Mary, a brown-eyed well-nigh
blond type.
Had Joseph lived, he undoubtedly would have become a
firm believer in the divi-e mission of his eldest son.
Mary alternated between believing and doubting, being
greatly influenced by the position taken by her other
children and by her friends and relatives, but always
was she steadied in her final attitude by the memory of
Gabriel's appearance to her immediately after the child
was conceived.
Mary was an expert weaver and more than averagely
skilled in most of the household arts of that day; she
was a good housekeeper and a superior homemaker. Both
Joseph and Mary were good teachers, and they saw to it
that their children were well versed in the learning of
that day.
When Joseph was a young man, he was employed by
Mary's father in the work of building an addition to
his house, and it was when Mary brought Joseph a cup of
water, during a noontime meal, that the court****p of
the pair who were destined to become the parents of
J--sus really began.
Joseph and Mary were married, in accordance with
Je-ish custom, at Mary's home in the environs of
Nazareth when Joseph was twenty-one years old. This
marriage concluded a normal court****p of almost two
years' duration. Shortly thereafter they moved into
their new home in Nazareth, which had been built by
Joseph with the assistance of two of his brothers. The
house was located near the foot of the near-by elevated
land which so charmingly overlooked the surrounding
countryside. In this home, especially prepared, these
young and expectant parents had thought to welcome the
child of promise, little realizing that this momentous
event of a universe was to transpire while they would
be absent from home in Bethlehem of Judea.
The larger part of Joseph's family became believers
in the teachings of Jes--, but very few of Mary's
people ever believed in him until after he departed
from this world. Joseph leaned more toward the
spi-itual concept of the expected Mess-ah, but Mary and
her family, especially her father, held to the idea of
the Messi-h as a tem****al deliverer and p-litical
ruler. Mary's ancestors had been prominently identified
with the Maccabean activities of the then but recent
times.
Joseph held vigorously to the Eastern, or Babylonian,
views of the J-wish relig-on; Mary leaned strongly
toward the more liberal and broader Western, or
Hellenistic, interpretation of the law and the
prophets.

Here they mention the birth of the nice person.

.......................................................
"6. THE HOME AT NAZARETH"
The home of Je--s was not far from the high hill in
the northerly part of Nazareth, some distance from the
village spring, which was in the eastern section of the
town. Jes--' family dwelt in the outskirts of the city,
and this made it all the easier for him subsequently to
enjoy frequent strolls in the country and to make trips
up to the top of this near-by highland, the highest of
all the hills of southern Galilee save the Mount Tabor
range to the east and the hill of Nain,
Page 1350
which was about the same height. Their home was located
a little to the south and east of the southern
promontory of this hill and about midway between the
base of this elevation and the road leading out of
Nazareth toward Cana. Aside from climbing the hill,
--sus' favorite stroll was to follow a narrow trail
winding about the base of the hill in a northeasterly
direction to a point where it joined the road to
Sepphoris.
The home of Joseph and Mary was a one-room stone
structure with a flat roof and an adjoining building
for housing the animals. The furniture consisted of a
low stone table, earthenware and stone dishes and pots,
a loom, a lampstand, several small stools, and mats for
sleeping on the stone floor. In the back yard, near the
animal annex, was the shelter which covered the oven
and the mill for grinding grain. It required two
persons to operate this type of mill, one to grind and
another to feed the grain. As a small boy J--us often
fed grain to this mill while his mother turned the
grinder.
In later years, as the family grew in size, they
would all squat about the enlarged stone table to enjoy
their meals, helping themselves from a common dish, or
pot, of food. During the winter, at the evening meal
the table would be lighted by a small, flat clay lamp,
which was filled with olive oil. After the birth of
Martha, Joseph built an addition to this house, a large
room, which was used as a carpenter shop during the day
and as a sleeping room at night.
"7. THE TRIP TO BETHLEHEM"
In the month of March, 8 B.C. (the month Joseph and
Mary were married), Caesar Augustus decreed that all
inhabitants of the Roman Empire should be numbered,
that a census should be made which could be used for
effecting better taxation. The J-ws had always been
greatly pr-judiced against any attempt to "number the
people," and this, in connection with the serious
domestic difficulties of Herod, King of Judea, had
conspired to cause the postponement of the taking of
this census in the -ewish kingdom for one year.
Throughout all the Roman Empire this census was
registered in the year 8 B.C., except in the
Palestinian kingdom of Herod, where it was taken in
7 B.C., one year later.
It was not necessary that Mary should go to Bethlehem
for enrollment Joseph was authorized to register for
his family but Mary, being an adventurous and
aggressive person, insisted on accompanying him.
She feared being left alone lest the child be born
while Joseph was away, and again, Bethlehem being not
far from the City of Judah, Mary foresaw a possible
pleasurable visit with her kinswoman Elizabeth.
Joseph virtually forbade Mary to accompany him, but
it was of no avail; when the food was packed for the
trip of three or four days, she prepared double rations
and made ready for the journey. But before they
actually set forth, Joseph was reconciled to Mary's
going along, and they cheerfully departed from Nazareth
at the break of day.
Joseph and Mary were poor, and since they had only
one beast of burden, Mary, being large with child, rode
on the animal with the provisions while Joseph walked,
leading the beast. The building and furni****ng of a
home had been a great drain on Joseph since he had also
to contribute to the sup****t of his parents, as his
father had been recently disabled. And so this Je-ish
couple went forth from their humble home early on
the morning of August 18, 7 B.C., on their journey to
Bethlehem.
Page 1351
Their first day of travel carried them around the
foothills of Mount Gilboa, where they camped for the
night by the river Jordan and engaged in many
speculations as to what sort of a son would be born to
them, Joseph adhering to the concept of a s-iritual
teacher and Mary holding to the idea of a Je-ish
M-ssiah, a deliverer of the Hebrew nation.
Bright and early the morning of August 19, Joseph and
Mary were again on their way. They partook of their
noontide meal at the foot of Mount Sartaba, overlooking
the Jordan valley, and journeyed on, making Jericho for
the night, where they stopped at an inn on the highway
in the outskirts of the city. Following the evening
meal and after much discussion concerning the
oppressiveness of Roman rule, Herod, the census
enrollment, and the comparative influence of Jerusalem
and Alexandria as centers of J-wish learning and
culture, the Nazareth travelers retired for the night's
rest. Early in the morning of August 20 they resumed
their journey, reaching Jerusalem before noon, visiting
the temple, and going on to their destination, arriving
at Bethlehem in midafternoon.
The inn was overcrowded, and Joseph accordingly
sought lodgings with distant relatives, but every room
in Bethlehem was filled to overflowing. On returning to
the courtyard of the inn, he was informed that the
caravan stables, hewn out of the side of the rock and
situated just below the inn, had been cleared of
animals and cleaned up for the reception of lodgers.
Leaving the donkey in the courtyard, Joseph shouldered
their bags of clothing and provisions and with Mary
descended the stone steps to their lodgings below. They
found themselves located in what had been a grain
storage room to the front of the stalls and mangers.
Tent curtains had been hung, and they counted
themselves fortunate to have such comfortable quarters.
Joseph had thought to go out at once and enroll, but
Mary was weary; she was considerably distressed and
besought him to remain by her side, which he did.
"8. THE BIRTH OF JES--"
All that night Mary was restless so that neither of
them slept much. By the break of day the pangs of
childbirth were well in evidence, and at noon, August
21, 7 B.C., with the help and kind ministrations of
women fellow travelers, Mary was delivered of a male
child.
Je--s of Nazareth was born into the world, was
wrapped in the clothes which Mary had brought along for
such a possible contingency, and laid in a near-by
manger.
In just the same manner as all babies before that day
and since have come into the world, the promised child
was born; and on the eighth day, according to the
J-wish practice, he was circumcised and formally named
Joshua (J--us).
The next day after the birth of Je--s, Joseph made
his enrollment. Meeting a man they had talked with two
nights previously at Jericho, Joseph was taken by him
to a well-to-do friend who had a room at the inn, and
who said he would gladly exchange quarters with the
Nazareth couple. That afternoon they moved up to the
inn, where they lived for almost three weeks until they
found lodgings in the home of a distant relative of
Joseph.
The second day after the birth of Jes--, Mary sent
word to Elizabeth that her child had come and received
word in return inviting Joseph up to Jerusalem to talk
over all their affairs with Zacharias.
The following week Joseph went to Jerusalem to confer
with Zacharias. Both Zacharias and Elizabeth had become
possessed with the sincere conviction that --sus was
indeed to become the Je-ish
Page 1352
deliverer, the Mes-iah, and that their son John was to
be his chief of aides, his right-hand man of destiny.
And since Mary held these same ideas, it was not
difficult to prevail upon Joseph to remain in
Bethlehem, the City of David, so that Jes-- might grow
up to become the successor of David on the throne of
all Israel. Accordingly, they remained in Bethlehem
more than a year, Joseph meantime working some at his
carpenter's trade.
At the noontide birth of Je--s the seraphim of
Urantia, assembled under their directors, did sing
anthems of glory over the Bethlehem manger, but these
utterances of praise were not heard by human ears. No
shepherds nor any other mortal creatures came to pay
homage to the babe of Bethlehem until the day of the
arrival of certain priests from Ur, who were sent down
from Jerusalem by Zacharias.
These priests from Mesopotamia had been told sometime
before by a strange r-ligious teacher of their country
that he had had a dream in which he was informed that
"the light of life" was about to appear on earth as a
babe and among the -ews. And thither went these three
teachers looking for this "light of life." After many
weeks of futile search in Jerusalem, they were about to
return to Ur when Zacharias met them and disclosed his
belief that J--us was the object of their quest and
sent them on to Bethlehem, where they found the babe
and left their gifts with Mary, his earth mother. The
babe was almost three weeks old at the time of their
visit.
These wise men saw no star to guide them to
Bethlehem. The beautiful legend of the star of
Bethlehem originated in this way: Je--s was born August
21 at noon, 7 B.C. On May 29, 7 B.C., there occurred an
extraordinary conjunction of Jupiter and Saturn in the
constellation of Pisces. And it is a remarkable
astronomic fact that similar conjunctions occurred on
September 29 and December 5 of the same year. Upon the
basis of these extraordinary but wholly natural events
the well-meaning zealots of the succeeding generation
constructed the appealing legend of the star of
Bethlehem and the adoring Magi led thereby to the
manger, where they beheld and wor****ped the newborn
babe. Oriental and near-Oriental minds delight in fairy
stories, and they are continually spinning such
beautiful myths about the lives of their re-igious
leaders and p-litical heroes. In the absence of
printing, when most human knowledge was passed by word
of mouth from one generation to another, it was very
easy for myths to become traditions and for traditions
eventually to become accepted as facts.
(JW Please don't be surprised if you find out that
the Star of Bethlehem was not an actual star but is
and was an alien spacecraft.)
