Dear KKIM Family,
My Child, from your youth choose discipline, and when you have gray hair you will still find wisdom. Sirach 6:8
I love that scripture as my Dad and Mom taught me discipline from the start……..my neighbors, my Sunday school teachers, School teachers……all taught me discipline………and now that I have gray hair I still am learning discipline in our Lord.
Here is the Thought for the Day………..As long as we think of this life in Christ as knowledge to acquire instead of living in HIM, we’ll do all kinds of foolish things.
Another Thought……We regard falling from God’s friendship as the only thing dreadful and we consider becoming God’s friend the only thing worthy of honor and desire. This……is the perfection of life. St. Gregory of Nyssa
My Minnesota Twins are done for the year after losing to the White Sox………Thanks to all of you who emailed and called giving me a bad time!!!
This is a busy week with the VP debate Thursday night on KKIM, One nation Under God Prayer Meeting Friday night at Heights Christian Church, and Dr. Larry Bates’s seminar Saturday……..For more details go to www.mykkim.com I hope that you can make it to all the events!!
By the way this Sunday at 8:30am Pastor Kyle Martin will be on KKIM! We will be airing Kyle’s messages that he delivered at Revive Santa Fe. These messages will be heard for seven consecutive Sundays. We are so blessed to have Kyle as part of the KKIM family. I am so thankful to our Lord for all of you! I get told many times how people just love being part of the KKIM family……..a family in the Lord! I pray that you will be able to tune in and hear Kyle.
Two Funny Bones!!!
The first one is true………….the second one? I will leave that to Funny man Lew……..
Commenting on being Vice President of the United States………..
“I do not propose to be buried until I am dead.” Daniel Webster said that as he turned down the Vice Presidency in 1839.
“I never had a boss. I don’t know how I’d handle it.” Se. Joseph Biden, asked in July of 2008 about being named Barack Obama’s running mate.
By the way KKIM will broadcast the VP debate Thursday night at 7pm.
Lew sent in this most funny story…….good timing Lew with all the bad news out in the world…….trying to lighten it up a bit……….Yes it is a bit political but enjoy the Funny Bone……It’s all in fun!
A public school teacher was arrested today at John F. Kennedy International Airport as he attempted to board a flight while in possession of a ruler, a protractor, a set square, a slide rule, and a calculator. At a morning press conference, the Attorney General said he believes the man is a member of the notorious Al-gebra movement. He did not identify the man, who has been charged by the FBI with carrying weapons of math instruction.
‘Al-gebra is a problem for us,’ the Attorney General said. ‘They desire solutions by means and extremes, and sometimes go off on tangents in a search of absolute value. They use secret code names like ‘x’ and ‘y’ and refer to themselves as ‘unknowns,’ but we have determined they belong to a common denominator of the axis of medieval with coordinates in every country. As the Greek philanderer Isosceles used to say, ‘There are 3 sides to every triangle.”
When asked to comment on the arrest, President Bush said, ‘If God had wanted us to have better Weapons of Math Instruction, he would have given us more fingers and toes.’ Republican leaders told reporters they could not recall a more intelligent or profound statement by the President.
Snow on Mars??? Now this is not a Funny Bone but true!
Icy snow falls from high in the Martian atmosphere — 2 1/2 miles above the surface — and may even reach the planet’s surface, scientists working with NASA’s Phoenix Mars Lander reported Monday. “Nothing like this view has ever been seen on Mars,” said lead scientist Jim Whiteway of York University in Toronto. “We’ll be looking for signs that the snow may even reach the ground.” The team also reported that they had discovered material in the soil — clays and calcium carbonate, or limestone — that could have formed only in the presence of liquid water. WASHINGTON POST
We have a new friend………Clarence Montoya…….I have known Clarence a few years. He look’s at life from a wheelchair…….He is a wonderful man of God………despite his disability….he has the strongest faith………here is a prayer request from Clarence for his sister………
PRAY FOR MY SISTER KATRINA, THAT SHE FIND HER WAY BACK TO THE LORD. GOD BLESS, CLARENCE
By the way I was telling Clarence that I wore a brace on my leg for 2 years and was told I would never walk and run with the rest of the kids…..Clarence said softly..”Dewey, that is not the same……..I have little kids on my street make fun of me for my disability and my race.” I told Clarence Lord willing I am going down to Socorro next week and we will talk to those kids about disabilities.
Darrell from Farmington, NM was at the same meeting, The Arc of New Mexico Board Meeting, Darrell is in his 40’s and is married with 2 children and works. He also is God’s eye’s in a wheelchair! He said to me, “Dewey, ya know what the first question of a Manager was when I went to apply for a job at his place?”……………He said to me, “Can you go to the bathroom by yourself!” WOW! I asked Darrell what he said back………”Dewey I did not mean it in a bad way, but I said, Can you?”
To more appreciate the wonders of God……..you need to be around people like Clarence and Darell. I have to tell you that they are really up on their politics and have a great Godly view of life. I am going to have them both on my show in the very near future.
What is missing from the bailout? God and the common people. What does God think of this? Also those in Washington really are out of touch with the common folk, they do not represent the people any longer. They represent themselves and special interests. many of those in Washington need God as their special interest!
I wrote this Sunday……..
I am sitting in the family room as I type this.(Sunday midday)……..We have the doors open to let the cool breezes come into our home……..There is yelling coming from our neighbors house………so good to hear……….yelling and cheering………..from Oscar………the house has been very quiet the last several weeks as his wife goes through chemo and kidney dialysis……..I am so thankful that Oscar has this time to watch his football team and give out several cheers………AMEN!
I am thankful for Oscar……….he is a good neighbor………
Let’s check the mailbag……….
What do I think? So Thankful for Jesus … a God who loves us so much.
Can’t imagine not knowing Christ and getting through a day! Dewey,
your ministry is such a blessing. I am so thankful you called me a
few months ago and we talked…which led to me getting on your Daily
Cup list!
Love in Christ…Cherie
Happy New Year!
We just returned from spending time in D.C. with Angel. It was a wonderful family time!
We couldn’t let this special time pass without wishing you a very healthy and blessed biblical new year!
September 30th marks Rosh Hashana on God’s Calender, so what does that mean to you?
I’m not Jewish (many of you are saying), but The Bible says you are, for a true Jew is one who is circumcised of heart, according to Paul the Apostle. Many Believers and Seekers alike want to know The Truth and be set free from man made religious practices and the confusion of the world. Let’s take God at His Word and see what He has to say.
The Lord said to Moses, “Say to the Israelites: ‘On the first day of the seventh month you are to have a day of rest, a sacred assembly commemorated with trumpet blasts. Do no regular work, but present an offering made to the Lord by fire” (Leviticus 23:23-25)
The Biblical/Spiritual Year begins in the Spring with the month Nisan, according to Exodus 12:2, which has some logic to it, since it is the start of the new harvest season, but this first of the Fall Holidays, Biblically known as Yom Teruah (the Day of Sounding/Festival of Trumpets), the first day of Tishri called “Rosh HaShanah,” the Head of the Year is the beginning of the Civil New Year. Like the Lenten Season the previous month of Elul, from its first day to the tenth of Tishri (Yom Kippur) consists of a 40 day period of prayer, fasting and repentance, because many believe that it was on the first day of Elul that Moses ascended Mount Sinai in order to receive the second set of Tablets of the Law and that he descended on Yom Kippur.
Traditionally the shofar (ram’s horn) is sounded and bread crumbs or pebbles are cast into a river, lake or ocean to signify God’s forgiveness towards our sins, as recorded in Micah 7:19, “You will hurl all of our iniquities into the depths of the sea.” It is quite possible that Jesus started His earthly ministry in the fall, after His baptism, which was recorded in Luke 3:23 and that His birth took place in late Fall, not the Winter. Would it be a surprise to you if Jesus, who fulfilled The Law would be immersed in water (Matthew 3:13-14) and preach, “Turn from your sins to God, for the Kinghdom of Heaven is near!,” after His 40 days of testing in the desert (Matthew 4:1-11)?
This Feast of Trumpets is characterized as a time of ingathering and spiritual preperation:
For the Lord Himself will come down from Heaven with a rousing cry, with a call from one of the ruling angels, and with God’s shofar; those who died united with the Messiah will be the first to rise; then we who are left still alive will be caught up (Latin – rapture) with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air; and thus we will always be with the Lord. So encourage each other with these words” (1 Thessalonians 4:16-18)
Let us encourage you to encourage others with these words from Holy Scripture and others that promise God will gather ALL who are scattered! 1 Corinthians 15:50-58; Revelation 4:1; Isaiah 27:12-13; Matthew 24:31
Shalom,
Tony & Cindy Russell
Dewey,
I must thank Frank Haley for the reminder of Isaiah 9:6
Such a blessing. Such a relief, isn’t it? If the whole world could just simply Know that unto us, a Son is given.
Thank you Frank, Sam
Hi, Dewey,
I hope you and the KKIM staff are having a blessed week. I wanted to let you know about Walking in The Way on Saturday. My guest this week will be Linda Pena. She is the Director of Parents Stop Meth and the NM Chapter of MAMA (Mothers Against Meth-Amphetamine). Just tonight on the local news was a story about the problem of meth-amphetamine in New Mexico. I know our listeners will have an interest in Linda’s story. Her daughter fell prey to the drug. Linda spent many nights in tears and in prayer for her daughter. Her story has a happy ending but she praises the Lord for the recovery of her daughter. Linda will let us know what is happening in this state to combat this issue. Our listeners are encouraged to call in with their questions and comments. If anyone who is reading Dewey’s Cup knows of a woman who has a child that is struggling with the use of this drug or herself is having a problem, invite them to listen to Walking in The Way this Saturday October 4 from 8:05-9:00 AM.
God bless,
Dr. Deb
Deborah Gunderman, D.Min.

Malachi 3:3 says: “He will sit as a refiner and purifier of silver.”
This verse puzzled some women in a Bible study and they wondered what this statement meant about the character and nature of God.
One of the women offered to find out the process of refining silver and get back to the group at their next Bible Study.
That week, the woman called a silversmith and made an appointment to watch him at work. She didn’t mention anything about the reason for her interest beyond her curiosity about the process of refining silver.
As she watched the silversmith, he held a piece of silver over the fire and let it heat up. He explained that in refining silver, one needed to hold the silver in the middle of the fire where the flames were hottest as to burn away all the impurities.
The woman thought about God holding us in such a hot spot; then she thought again about the verse that says: “He sits as a refiner and purifier of s ilver.” She asked the silversmith if it was true that he had to sit there in front of the fire the whole time the silver was being refined.
The man answered that yes, he not only had to sit there holding the silver, but he had to keep his eyes on the silver the entire time it was in the fire. If the silver was left a moment too long in the flames, it would be destroyed.
The woman was silent for a moment. Then she asked the silversmith, “How do you know when the silver is fully refined?”
He smiled at her and answered, “Oh, that’s easy — when I see my image in it”
If today you are feeling the heat of the fire, remember that God has his eye on you and will keep watching you until He sees His image in you.
Pass this on right now. This very moment, someone needs to know that God is watching over them and that He will not leave them in the flame one moment longer than necessary to see His image. And, whatever you’re going through, if you find gratitude for His Master Plan you will grow spiritually and become more like JESUS! How Awesome is that?!
Karen Rowe is up next………..
Hello to all! Peace from the LORD Jesus Christ is with us! God is our Father! What more can I want or need? How wrapped up can I get that I can forget these things?

Love in Christ,
Karen Rowe
PS…Who would Jesus vote for?
We need to ask HIM…

Subject: The truth about the BAIL OUT CRIME of the century
Representative Marcy Kaptur, D-Ohio, 9th District says it like it is. Watch this video before it disappears from view. It is the truth the government does not want you to hear. Watch the whole video. It is worth it.
http://www.godlikeproductions.com/forum1/message616928/pg1
Transcript Summary:
Ms. KAPTUR. Mr. Speaker, here is the latest reality game. Let’s play Wall Street Bailout.
Rule one: Rush the decision. Time the game to fall in the week before Congress is set to adjourn and just 6 weeks before an historic election so your opponents will be preoccupied, pressured, distracted, and in a hurry.
Rule two: Disarm the public through fear. Warn that the entire global financial system will collapse and the world will fall into another Great Depression. Control the media enough to ensure that the public will not notice this.
Bailout will indebt them for generations, taking from them trillions of dollars they earned and deserve to keep.
Rule three: Control the playing field and set the rules. Hide from the public and most of the Congress just who is arranging this deal. Communicate with the public through leaks to media insiders. Limit any open congressional hearings. Communicate with Congress via private teleconferencing calls. Heighten political anxiety by contacting each political party separately. Treat Members of Congress condescendingly, telling them that the matter is so complex that they must rely on those few insiders who really do know what’s going on.
Rule four: Divert attention and keep people confused. Manage the news cycle so Congress and the public have no time to examine who destroyed the prudent banking system that served America so well for 60 years after the financial meltdown of the 1920s.
Rule five: Always keep in mind the goal is to privatize gains to a few and socialize loss to the many. For 30 years in one financial scandal after another, Wall Street game masters have kept billions of dollars of their gain and shifted their losses to American taxpayers. Once this bailout is in place, the greed game will begin again.
But I have a counter-game. It’s called Wall Street Reckoning. Congress shouldn’t go home to campaign. It should put America’s accounts in order.
To Wall Street insiders, it says “no” on behalf of the American people. You have perpetrated the greatest financial crimes ever on this American republic. You think you can get by with it because you are extraordinarily wealthy and the largest contributors to both Presidential and congressional campaigns in both major parties, but you are about to be brought under firm control.
First, America doesn’t need to bail you out, it needs to secure the real assets and property, not your paper, that means the homes and properties of hardworking Americans who are about to lose their homes because of your mortgage greed. There should be a new job for regional Federal Reserve Banks. We want no home foreclosed if a serious work-out agreement can be put into place. And if you don’t do it, we want a notarized statement by a Federal Reserve official that they tried and failed.
Second, taxpayers should directly gain any equity benefits that may flow from this historic bailout. We want the American people to get first priority in taking ownership of the institutions that want to pass their toxic paper onto the taxpayers.
Third, before any bailouts for Wall Street, America needs major job creation to rebuild our major infrastructure. America needs assets, not paper. We need working assets.
Fourth, the time for real financial regulatory change is now, not next year. A modernized Glass Eagle Act must be put in place. We need to reestablish locally-owned community savings banks across this country and create within the Justice Department a fully funded unit to prosecute every single high-flying thief whose fraud and criminal acts created this debacle and then forced their disgorgement of assets going back 15 years.
Fifth, any refinancing must return a major share of profits to a new Social Security and Medicare lockbox, where the monies can go to pay for a dignified and assured retirement for every American. This Member isn’t voting for a penny of it. Those who created and profited from this game of games must be brought to justice. The assets they stole must be returned to the American taxpayers, right down to the tires on their Mercedes.
Mr. Speaker, I ask my colleagues to join me in cosponsoring my bill to create an independent commission to investigate these well-heeled wrongdoers. Real reform now, or nothing.
God Bless you all and Christ’s Love to you all,
Dewey Sharon and Family
