If I were unemployed, I'd do something like
this. Go down the street asking at houses if there were anything they wanted
done, free. Do one thing, go to the next house. Keep going. After a while,
people might hear of me and ask if I could help them. I'd have a longer and
longer list of chores, and eventually someone would offer to pay me something
to get to the top of the list, maybe? Were I good at selling, or helping
businesses, etc., I'd do the same for businesses. Moral: Do something, get
noticed. There's lots to be done.

If I were unemployed: Henry Ford, Depression Answer
Go own the street offering to do small jobs FOR FREE of about 1/2 hour. Done? Keep going. Soon others would hear of you and ask if you would help them for free. You'd have a list. Soon it would be large, so that you'd have a waiting list, and then some would offer to pay to get to the top of the list, and you would have the seed of a handyman business--and if not, you'd be helping people. Henry Ford's answer about what he would do if unemployed in the Depression. Could work for businesses too, on a different scale.

A Beginning of Better Communication: 'Scientific Method' For Next Era
Sing A New Era!(TM)
(Lord willing)
When finished, this short book will include the complete
Opus 47 of The Symphony of History: From Creation Speech Through New Song,
Singing
And
A Fill-In-The-Blanks Version. [A group could play this
exact Symphony with variations and additions. See Epilog 7 for how to start
your symphony. Time permitting, I’ll email back and forth from edencity@aol.com
to help.]
Let’s start!
BUT FIRST—[Apr 22]
Fear not, non-religious people, secularists!
A ‘resurrection’ can be any major
change. Newton’s apple,
one’s realization of one’s purpose in life, a
new job, a marriage…. .
The basis:‘He Who Reversed The Trend’
Please see the Rosenstock-Huessy quote in
Epilog 2 and below.
Day 8, Chuck, Resurrection, asks Day 7, Timothy,
Fall: What imperative comes from the Resurrection, and impacts your trauma Church ? Impacts
you or someone else.
(This Initiation is forwarded also to PageS 21, for Day 7’s
Response (IR= City in Hebrew!).
Start the Fill-in-the-blanks
part now, below (modified April 7)
Fill in the Initiation (asking) from the Symphony YOU are
making from Day 8 to Day 7 here:
__________________________________________________________________

By Charles Howard Hartman
--See Epilog 7 for how to start
your symphony, and why!--
---The title could have
been: Comprehensive History Interactive---
--If the Symphony is meeting face-to-face,
the first week can be devoted to initiating.
Conductor will help each and all--
Imagine that 12 Days are seated
around a table. Day 8 is on the West,
facing east, and to Day 8’s right, in this order, are Day 7, Day 1, and Day 12.
On the East facing west is Day
2. On Day 2’s right, in this order are
Day 6 and Day 9.
On the North facing south is Day
3. On Day 3’s right, in this order are
Day 5 and Day 10.
On the South facing north is Day
4. On Day 4’s right is Day 11.
This will be written in a way
similar to the great book, ‘The Immortal Game,’ by Shenk. He alternated moves
in what chess players call ‘the immortal game’ with sections on the history and
importance of the game of chess.
This is primarily done to restrict others from restricting
use. ( I am most open to joint ventures.) An
electronic version may be obtained from edencity@aol.com as it is built, pending
website.

Rosenstock-Huessy Quote
Chuck uses for ‘Resurrection’
If
you
ever in your life had a bright idea, or a new instinct, or a
new change of heart,
Sir, make this the cornerstone of your understanding
of the universe and you
will understand that the universe begins with creation. And
it ends in incarnation, because that's the experience of every potent and creative
man in the world.
But you look outside and try to deduce by your little brain,
not by your experience of your heart how the world begins, and how it should be
run. You'll never
solve it, gentlemen. You'll remain a selfish, inarticulate
animal. If the spirit moves
you, you will see how simple
things are, gentlemen. Love begins, and hope
keeps you going, and faith. And in the end, your grandchildren
will bless you.

Also, a great example of finding one’s
vocation, of resurrection, is in Sturgeon’s GREAT short story,
‘Brownshoes’. It’s in his ‘Sturgeon is
Alive and Well’. Also titled ‘The Man Who Learned Love’. A hippie discovers
free energy—how is he to get ‘power to the people’. You will be wonderfully
surprised!

At Ascension, the universe was retuned! Rev. 5:12-7:12
I should write on every post that mentions Mother's Day that at Ascension (shown in Revelation 5:12 compared to Revelation 7:12, the universe is retuned by circle of fifths. The universe is retuned.
This is similar to the process by which we obtained the names of our days of the week in English/Europe, as shown by the inclusion of names of deities of the 'planets' and the planets themselves.
Consider: The Moon is closest to Earth, 1. Then Venus is 2, Mercury 3, Sun is four, then Mars-5, Jupiter-6, Saturn-7. But retuning this, start with 7 and then do 1234 (a total of 5) and you get...Sun(day). 5 more (45671) and you get Moon...Day. Etc. 2 and 3 are switched. The reasons will be reasoned out.
From Jordan's Commentary on Revelation, the big one. Wordmp3.com.
[I think there'a another retuning] Also, instruments were added, singing, and 'the' in front of each name of the attributes of Christ that were retuned.
The universe was retuned!

Worthy is Christ, the Lamb who was slain,
Whose blood set us free to be people of God?
Power, riches and wisdom and strength,
And honor and blessing and glory are his.
This is the feast of victory for our God. Alleluia.
Sing with all the people of God
And join in the hymn of all creation;
Blessing and honor and glory and might
Be to God and the Lamb forever. "Amen.
This is the feast of victory for our God,
For the Lamb who was slain has begun his reign.
Alleluia. Alleluia.”
Let’s do a Charles Wesley. He is
credited with thousands of hymns. For
many of these he supplied lyrics/words for tunes already in existence.
So, for the verses that celebrate A. D. 70’s destruction of the Temple in Jerusalem ,
what themes do we want to hymn? I’ll
list some, and then I’ll put some poor words to computer screen, praying that
others will have more themes, and better words.
The words above have
some problems.
Are they the words in
the green LCMS Hymnal?
Victory House-Building Pattern:
God destroys the enemies of His People.
With the spoils, His People build Him a house. He moves in, lights the fire, puts His feet
up, and His People administer the conquest in His Name.
Thus, God destroyed Egypt
and Pharaoh’s army. War materiel that washed up from the Red
Sea was added to the gifts, and the skills from Egypt of Aholiab
and Bezaleel helped the building. When
done, the Holy Spirit filled the Tabernacle…
Let’s start. Words used now in the
odd lines, new words to this theme in the even lines (italics).
(I think there are two more Alleluias)
This is the feast of victory for our God. Alleluia, Alleluia, Alleluia.
Worthy is Christ, the Lamb who was slain,
Whose blood set us free to be people of God?
Worthy is Christ who destroyed the
In A. D. 70 a- a- s He said.
Power, riches and wisdom and strength,
And honor and blessing and glory are his.
He said He’d destroy it, the Temple
And Converts, and Scripture and glory are his.
This is the feast of victory for our God. Alleluia, Alleluia, Alleluia.
Sing with all the people of God
Each week we echo this worship
And join in the hymn of all creation;
And join in the way of joyous triumph
Blessing and honor and glory and might
He inspected it for leprosy
Be to God and the Lamb forever. "Amen.
And scattered it to unclean places.
This is the feast of victory for our God,
For the Lamb who was slain has begun his reign.
Alleluia. Alleluia.”

ChuckHartmanHistoryConductor
The art form of the next era.
Engendering peace in a neo-tribal era that we enter now.
I propose that the national revolutions of the West, the scientific method, and traditional worship orders in the church (liturgy) follow the same 5-step pattern.
'Sing A New Era!' follows that pattern.
To circle back around, this pattern applied to the heavens above is worship liturgy. Applied to the waters under the earth, it's the scientific method. SANE! ('Sing A New Era!') applies it to the earth beneath, people.
Circling again, I follow Eugen Rosenstock-Huessy's Universal History 1954 challenge, that the next 1000 years, however long that it, will focus on the challenges of sociology. www.argobooks.org offers all his Dartmouth lectures on a DVD, written, for $30, and a selection of recorded ones. I recommend the DVD with Universal History 1954. Also see http://plato.stanford.edu/entries/rosenstock-huessy/ For the revolutions of the West as they follow ERH's speech-method, see Chapter 5 of Gardner's 'Beyond Belief'.
Now, to sum up, what I do is that I show this method by example. 1--I call 10 people in, via their talent or trauma. As Mr. Monk modified would say, a talent is a blessing--and a cross. 2--These folks are encouraged that they are able to turn this being called in, the talent/trauma, into something great by going through the method that was used, this 5-step method used in the scientific method and order of worship. 3--We interact. Comprehensive History Interactive. One anothering one another. This is not a top-down process, but a conducted one: train conductor, electricity conductor, orchestra conductor. 4--After each one and the group have been transformed, each one sings a solo, summarizing--and the conductor summarizes all, by a symphony, I call it. 5--This is then taken out for what ERH calls planetary service.
Circling again. I 'rhyme' several of these 5-step processes. Sayers' cuddle-story-parrot-pert-poet. Jordan's law-lyric-evaluation-fact-new torah/instruction. Jordan's liturgy: call, Cleanse, Consecrate, Commune, Commission. ERH's Imperative-Subjective-Narrative-Objective unto Planetary Service. North's Transcendence-Hierarchy-Ethics-Oaths and Sanctions-Succession, and his Who's in charge? To whom do I report? What are the rules? What happens if I follow the rules, if I don't? Does this outfit have a future?
And more.
The process is fun and transforming, face to face. To 'play' (do, be, compose...) all 12 parts is cruciating. Cruciating because one is torn in many ways. One must do an initiatory move toward all parts of the universe of this house of conversation each week, and then respond to these respective universes of initiation...all while being pulled from the end (the solos), and pushed from the beginning (the talent/trauma).
I do The Symphony of History, Opus 47: From Creation Speech to New Song, Singing as well as a 'fill-in-the-blanks' version.
Love in King Jesus,
Chuck
PS: For many, their 'resurrection' will not at this time be religious, but some new way of thinking, some major change. As ERH spoke in one of his lectures: If you
ever in your life had a bright idea, or a new instinct, or a
new change of heart,
Sir, make this the cornerstone of your understanding
of the universe and you
will understand that the universe begins with creation. And
it ends in incarnation, because that's the experience of every potent and creative
man in the world.
But you look outside and try to deduce by your little brain,
not by your experience of your heart how the world begins, and how it should be
run. You'll never
solve it, gentlemen. You'll remain a selfish, inarticulate
animal. If the spirit moves
you, you will see how simple
things are, gentlemen. Love begins, and hope
keeps you going, and faith. And in the end, your grandchildren
will bless you.
ERH
PPS: Much more.

Honor 'father and mother' with lectionary historical--Get out your Ussher and...
Gentles:
It's a new year, or rather Celebration Of Resurrection Anno Mundi! (CORAM--word play intended).
This is an outline of a way to learn history.
When we take Ussher's Annals of the World (free online at Preterist Archive), and divide it by 49 (books in JBJ's 'Rethinking the Order of the Old Testament,' we get @ 81 years per week.
We don't do it for holiday weeks, such as Public Vindication--only ordinary weeks.
[There are 31 extra years in Week 25, for Father Abraham, and JBJ has indicated a delay of 80 years might be near the end].
GO FORWARD AND BACKWARD. In other words, this week we do both the first 81 years, and the last 81 + 80 years.
---
Second part is the use of something such as 'The 100 Most Important Events in Church History'. http://www.amazon.com/Most-Important-Events-Christian-History/dp/0800756444
One could do @ 40 years per week. 2013 minus 70 is 1943 years, divided by 49. Put the extras in with Week 25, as was done above?
Do a couple a week, forwards and backwards, for each of the 49 weeks. That's 98. Give Father Abraham 2 more, making 100.
This week, then, it's The Fire in Rome, A. D. 64 and Titus Destroys Jerusalem, A. D. 70 going forward. Going backward in's '1966-1976 Chinese Church Grows Despite Cultural Revolution, and 1963 Martin Luther King, Jr. Leads March on Washington.
You see that this book needs updating. Wat are imortan events since 1976, one could ask?
--
This Lectionary Historical is in obedience to the Fifth Word. It's a way of honoring 'father and mother,' in this case 'history'. There are many outshining of father and mother.

Taking a break--from almost everything
Friends:
Gone fishing, but … mny benefits here: Calendar toward
Peace, Helping the talents/trauma of people and one-anothering and training
conductors, I hope GFE carries JBJ’s thinking along, and a new holiday—had we
celebrated A. D. 70 for centuries, maybe dispensationalism and hyper-preterism
would have been muted.
I'll be back when it happens as Jay Abraham (great marketer,
much free gifting at www.abraham.com/gifts) says it comes to one who is writing
copy. 1--Immerse yourself in the
subject. 2--Go 'fishing'--don't think about it. 3--Take something with which to
write. 4--When 'it' comes to you, write without stopping. 5--Edit.
Will it be marketing (an adjusted metathesis (?) of
mohar--hard 'h') or will it do the chuckhartmanhistoryconductor thing?
[Marketing so I can pay people].
I don't know. I must
change, though, in order to remain the same. One doesn't 'father' a 12-year old
as he does a 2-year old.
What'll I do? Play some golf, shoot some pool. Louise and I will try to shoot my age
(Chinese, entering) from the up tees, etc.
We came close last year, before I had some kind of weakening by laser, I
claim. I do know I hit one 287 uphill earlier in the summer, and thought I
could drive a 240 yardhole, but after 200 was my max.
In the meantime, consider these 4 things.
1--A psalmodic response. One effect of the feasts of Israel was to drive Israel
from the land and into cities (JBJ, early--North said iirc, it drove Israel into
trade). Let's get the gist of this and use it in the new situation(s) God has
put us in, namely 5th generation warfare.
How to get to peace from 'nets and jets,' that is, a warfare that does
not have hierarchies to surrender with authority, and which has jet planes to
take biowar and nanowar. [You have heard of the totally drug resistant TB in
Mumbai?]
I proposed C.E.P.T (Host--House of Singing Times) long ago,
but I didn't see it as a primer, as in 'Blink'
The idea is that by going through this calendar for neo-tribal times, we
might move society to peace, as Israel was moved above from agriculture to
cities. As a friend of mine from work who's looking for a serious church said,
'Yeah, what've they got!?'
2--The inside out of HOST, as the garments of the high
priest were to the tabernacle is TSOH. The Symphony of History, aka One
Anothering Revolution, or OAR! This
takes the pain identified in a person (trauma or talent--to modify Mr. Monk: 'A
blessing, and a cross') and move it through the 5Cs, the
Law-Lyric-Evaluation-Fact, ERH's 'ISNO,' Sayers, etc., with one-anothering
Initiations and Responses ('IR's--city in Hebrew: Our conversation/citizenship
is in Heaven), such that solos (soli) and a symphony in 4 forms is done, and
each Day is taught to conduct, electricity, train, orchestra. There's more.
3—Godparents for Eldsters.
Out of my trauma (YOHAD—years of hell and death) after getting ‘Crisis, Opportunity, and the Christian Future’ in my bones, I see
that a next move, based on JBJ’s parallelism of history might be GFE. Search
‘Godparents Hartman’ on YouTube—and for any of my stuff
chuckhartmanhistoryconductor or Charles Howard Hartman on Facebook (Notes). JBJ
says it’s Father, Son, Spirit, and after the Resurrection, it’s the
institutions of Church, Christian
State, University. Now we wait. Sabbath, 4th
Word. And it’s Jeremiah Time (violation
of Sabbath for the land?). And the 5th
Word and 8th Word were the first of 3 falls in Genesis, this being
Adam’s dishonoring the father (5) by theft (8).
So, I propose 5th Word emphasis, and of the many types of
father/mother, choose the elderly.
4—BUT, HOST/C.E.P.T is a calendar for a social order, not a
replacement. It’s for neo-tribal (ERH, Universal History 1954). Community
celebrations, tribal; work/business schedules, empire: eternal ecclesiastical
calendar, Israel;
educational calendars/schedules, Greece. Show me a man’s schedule,
I’ll tell you who he is. ERH. CHH: Show me a society’s calendars, and I’ll tell
you what whe is. One part of HOST is that I write 3 holiday weeks on the
49-book/week year. I call the year
‘coram,’ celebration of resurrection anno mundi. After Resurrection this coram
starts EphesusCoram861. One of the holiday weeks in Public Vindication. It’s the week starting the 11th
Lord’s Day, inclusive, after Resurrectin (Pascha, Easter).
Reading
for it, from Pentecots (Day 50) through the start of Days 71-77, is a bunch of
22s. The 22 ‘Old Testament’books—JBJ’s
‘Rethinking the Order of the Old Testament’. All these forward and
backward. The 27 Greek books, in 6 for
the first week, and 21 more. The 22
parts of Psalm 119. The 22 letters of
the Hebrew alphabet (again, RTOOTOT).
That should get us ready for celebrating the Public Vindication of Jesus
Christ, A. D. 70.
Many benefits here: Calendar toward Peace, Helping the
talents/trauma of people and one-anothering and training conductors, I hope GFE
carries JBJ’s thinking along, and a new holiday—had we celebrated A. D. 70 for
centuries, maybe dispensationalism and hyper-preterism would have been muted.
But I’m on hiatus, gone fishing—golfing, shooting pool, etc.
Love in King Jesus,
Charlie ‘next year, back home’ Hartman
PS: The outline of One Anothering Revolutin (Sing A New Era!
[Lord willng])—I’ll send it to you. I’ve done the first week and a little of
the 2nd, playing all 12 parts, with dodecaphrenicity. It’s cruciating. What I’ll send (edencity@aol.cm) also includes
‘fill-in-the-blanks’ form. HOST/House Of Singing Times, is in
chuckhartmanhistoryconductor, and you have the Facebook, Charles Howard
Hartman—and the pages Build A Peace Tribe and Godparents For Eldsters will find
them, and you have the YouTube. There’s also Symphony of History Stuff on
YouTube.
PPS: One option is joint ventures, but I won’t know until
after ‘it’ happens while I’m fishing.
