Termination/Discharge Policy For Jehovah Saints Homeless Shelters Purpose Jehovah Saints is committed to providing a safe, supportive, and respectful environment for all individuals utilizing our homeless shelters. This Termination/Discharge Policy outlines the circumstances under which a guest may be discharged from the shelter, as well as the procedures to ensure fairness, transparency, and access to additional resources. Policy Statement Termination or discharge from Jehovah Saints Homeless Shelters will only occur when necessary to uphold the safety, well-being, and integrity of the shelter community. All decisions will be made with fairness, compassion, and an emphasis on connecting individuals to alternative resources whenever possible. Grounds for Termination/Discharge A guest may be discharged from the shelter for any of the following reasons: Violation of Shelter Rules: Repeated or severe violations of shelter policies, including but not limited to: Violence or threats of violence toward staff, other guests, or visitors. Possession, use, or distribution of illegal substances or alcohol on shelter property. Theft or destruction of property. Harassment, bullying, or discriminatory behavior. Safety Concerns: Behavior that poses a direct threat to the safety or well-being of the guest, other residents, or staff. Non-Compliance with Program Requirements: Refusal to participate in required programs or services, if such participation was agreed upon as part of the guest’s stay. Voluntary Departure: A guest may choose to leave the shelter at any time. Completion of Stay: The guest has successfully completed their stay and transitioned to permanent housing or another appropriate living arrangement. Ineligibility: Discovery that the guest does not meet the eligibility criteria for shelter services (e.g., misrepresentation of homelessness status). Discharge Procedure To ensure fairness and transparency, the following steps will be taken in the event of a termination or discharge: Incident Review: Staff will review the situation, including any violations or concerns, to determine if discharge is necessary. Warning (if applicable): For non-severe violations, guests will receive a verbal or written warning and an opportunity to correct their behavior. Notice of Discharge: If discharge is deemed necessary, the guest will be informed in writing (when possible) of the decision, including: The reason for discharge.

Appeal Process Guests who believe they have been unfairly discharged may appeal the decision by following these steps: Submit a written appeal to the Shelter Director within 7 days of discharge. The Shelter Director will review the appeal and meet with the guest (if possible) to discuss the situation. A final decision will be made within 5 business days of receiving the appeal. The guest will be informed of the decision in writing. No Retaliation Jehovah Saints prohibits retaliation against any guest who raises concerns about their discharge or files an appeal. Confidentiality All information related to a guest’s termination or discharge will be handled confidentially and shared only with authorized personnel or external agencies as required by law.

Explore the captivating 'Dream of Neptune People' at Jehovah Saints. Immerse yourself in a world of inspiration and faith. | Christian News Today My Dream of the Neptune People Author: Michael Hopkins A Spiritual Encounter In a recent dream, I found myself in the presence of beings from the planet Neptune. These extraordinary people, who have a stronger faith in God than we do, came to Earth to protect me. Their spacecraft was a sight to behold: rectangular, brown with rainbow colors adorning the sides. The Neptune men, standing at about 5 feet 10 inches tall, had black hair cut straight across the front, and black eyes, peaceful eyes. Despite their average appearance, they possessed incredible strength. The women, equally striking with their long black hair, black eyes were beautiful and graceful. The Arrival and the Mission The Neptune people surrounded my house, ready to protect me. However, they were momentarily distracted by beautiful women angels and left their post. During their absence, I was spiritually attacked by demons. Although the Neptune people returned, the damage had been done. This experience reminded me of the importance of unwavering vigilance in spiritual warfare. “For He will command His angels concerning you to guard you in all your ways.” - Psalm 91:11 The Role of the Neptune People Interestingly, the Neptune people integrated into our society by taking on various jobs. Some worked at McDonald’s, while others became police officers. Regardless of their occupation, their primary mission was to protect us. By spreading out and working in different places, they could offer better protection. “For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.” - Ephesians 6:12 The End Times and Spiritual Warfare The dream also touched on the end times, as described in the Book of Revelation. The Neptune people, with their love for music (hence the word “tune” in Neptune), and their ability to travel through doors between planets, symbolize the spiritual battles we face and the divine protection we receive. “And there was war in heaven: Michael and his angels fought against the dragon; and the dragon fought and his angels.” - Revelation 12:7 Conclusion This dream was a vivid reminder of the spiritual realm and the battles that occur beyond our physical sight. The Neptune people, with their faith and strength, serve as a metaphor for the divine protection we receive from God and His angels. It also highlights the importance of staying vigilant and faithful, even when faced with distractions and challenges. “The Lord will fight for you; you need only to be still.” - Exodus 14:14 May this dream inspire you to strengthen your faith and remain steadfast in your spiritual journey.

Jehovah's HOUSE of Saints - Founder: Michael Hopkins Faith - Mission Statement Jehovah’s HOUSE of Saints FAITH Judaism, Christianity, and Islam—are defined as monotheistic. They all believe in one God, whom they refer to as the "God of Abraham." Jehovah Saints are Uniting All Faiths of the "God of Abraham" Jews call "God of Abraham" Yahweh in Hebrew Christians call "God of Abraham" Jehovah in English Muslims call "God of Abraham" Allah in Arabic Ephesians 2:19 Through Jesus Christ, "you are no longer foreigners, but fellow citizens with the saints, and of the household of Jehovah." "Jesus spoke Aramaic, which is an Arabic Language" Mark 15:34: Jesus shouted in a loud voice, (in Aramaic) "Eloi, Eloi, lama sabachthani?" which is translated, "My God, my God, for what have you forsaken me?" Jehovah Saints Faith is "SEP Trinity", Jehovah, Jesus and the Holy Spirit. SEP means "Separated", but all three Jehovah,Jesus, and the Holy Spirit work together as One. Even as when a man and a woman marry, they become One Flesh, Genesis 2:24 "For this reason a man shall leave his father and his mother, and be joined to his wife; and they shall become one flesh." Salvation: Jesus said, “Unless you repent, you will perish.” Luke 13:5 "Truly, our fellowship is with Jehovah, and with his Son, Jesus Christ. If we confess our sins, Jehovah is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness, If we say that we have not sinned, we make Jehovah a liar, and His word is not in us.” 1 John 1:3-10 Baptism Not Required: but it Builds Faith. Romans 10:9-10: “If you declare with your mouth, ‘Jesus is Lord,’ and believe in your heart that Jehovah raised him from the dead, you will be saved. For it is with your heart that you believe and are justified, and it is with your mouth that you profess your faith and are saved.” Jehovah Saints Faith in Hell: (Rich Man In Hell) Luke, chapter 16 "And JESUS said also unto his disciples, There was a certain rich man..." And in Hell, he lifts up his eyes, being in torment... And he cried and said, Father Abraham, have mercy on me, and send Lazarus, that he may dip the tip of his finger in water, and cool my tongue; for I am tormented in this FLAME." Matthew 18:8 And if your hand or your foot causes you to sin, cut it off and throw it away. It is better for you to enter life crippled or lame than with two hands or two feet to be thrown into the eternal fire. The Prayer of the Saints St. Mykul’s prayer: “I pray for Jehovah to speak through me all the time, and I pray for Jehovah to remove all my thoughts, and implant His thoughts all the time, as I do not even want my thoughts.” Faith in Angels: Exodus 23:20-24 "Behold, I, Jehovah, sent an Angel before you to keep you in the way and to bring you into the place which I have prepared. Beware of Him and obey His voice; do not provoke Him, for He will not pardon your transgressions; for My 'name' is in Him. But if you obey His voice and do all that I, Jehovah, speak, then I will be an enemy to your enemies and an adversary to your adversaries... You shall not bow down to their gods, nor serve them, nor do according to their works; but you shall utterly overthrow them and completely break down their sacred pillars. Hebrews 13:2 Do not neglect hospitality to strangers, for by doing so, some have entertained angels without knowing it. Jehovah Saints Put God First King David said, "Whom have I in heaven but You? and there is none upon earth that I desire beside You." ~ Psalm 73:25 Faith in Praying, Fasting to Resist Demons, Devils: Matthew 17:18-21 Jesus rebuked the devil, and he departed from him, and the child was cured from that very hour. Then came the disciples to Jesus and said, “Why could we not cast him out?” Jesus said unto them, “Because of your unbelief; for verily I say unto you, if ye have faith as a grain of mustard seed, ye shall say unto this mountain, ‘Remove hence to yonder place,’ and it shall remove. And nothing shall be impossible for you. However, this kind (devil) goes not out but by prayer and fasting.” James 4:7 "Submit yourselves therefore to Jehovah. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you." Faith in Laws: God Jehovah gave us 10 Laws to live by, all other laws are man's laws. The Bible is a History Book of man’s laws: In Romans 14, what is Sin to one person is Not Sin to another person. Stronger Faith People understand this, and do not tempt the weaker faith with what the weaker faith might consider wrong. Some of Man's Laws: Exodus 35:2 "Six days work shall be done, but on the seventh day you shall have a Sabbath of solemn rest, holy to the LORD. Whoever does any work on Sabbath shall be put to death." Deuteronomy 23:2 "A bastard shall not enter into the congregation (Church Building) of the LORD; even to his tenth generation shall he not enter into the congregation (Church Building) of the LORD." Leviticus 20:13 "If a man also lies with mankind, as he lies with a woman, they shall surely be put to death." None of the above are God's Laws, but man's laws. 10 Laws are all God gave us. Jesus did NOT like the High Priest at the Temple at ALL. Jesus said to the High Priest at Temple, "You are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father you will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaks a lie, he speaks of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of lies. And because I tell you the truth, you believe me not." John 8:44-45 Faith in Jesus: Jehovah's Son, "Jesus," Ruler Over All Kings of Earth. Revelations 1:5 "Jesus Christ, who is the faithful witness, is the firstborn from the dead, and Jesus is the ruler of the kings of the earth." John 12:28-31 Jesus said, “Father Jehovah, glorify thy name. Then came a voice from heaven, Jehovah, saying, I have both glorified it and will glorify it again… This voice came not because of me, but for your sakes. Now is the judgment of this world; now will the ruler of this world be cast out.” Faith in Jehovah: Jehovah is the Father God, and Jesus is His Son The name Jehovah holds profound significance in the Judeo-Christian tradition. It is a name that encapsulates the divine attributes and serves as a powerful symbol of God’s presence and authority. Let us explore the biblical references where this sacred name appears in the King James Version (KJV). 1. Psalms 83:18 "That men may know that thou, whose name alone is JEHOVAH, art the most high over all the earth." In this verse, the psalmist acknowledges God’s supremacy by emphasizing that His name—JEHOVAH—stands alone as the highest authority over the entire earth. 2. Isaiah 12:2 "Behold, God is my salvation; I will trust, and not be afraid: for the LORD JEHOVAH is my strength and my song; he also is become my salvation." Isaiah extols the Lord as the source of salvation, emphasizing that JEHOVAH is not only the strength of His people but also their song of deliverance. 3. Exodus 6:3 "And I appeared unto Abraham, unto Isaac, and unto Jacob, by the name of God Almighty, but by my name JEHOVAH was I not known to them." In this passage, God reveals His name, JEHOVAH to Moses, highlighting its significance as a revelation distinct from His previous interactions with the patriarchs. 4. Isaiah 26:4 "Trust ye in the LORD for ever: for in JEHOVAH is everlasting strength." Isaiah emphasizes that JEHOVAH provides unwavering strength—an eternal foundation for trust and reliance. 5. Genesis 22:14 "And Abraham called the name of that place JEHOVAHjireh: as it is said to this day, In the mount of the Lord it shall be seen." 6. Exodus 17:15 "And Moses built an altar, and called the name of it JEHOVAHnissi:" 7. Judges 6:24 "Then Gideon built an altar there unto the Lord, and called it JEHOVAHshalom: unto this day it is yet in Ophrah of the Abiezrites. Remember, the King James Version preserves the sacredness of this name, allowing us to connect with the Almighty through the ages. Other translations have removed God's name JEHOVAH in the Bible, and some translations have removed JEHOVAH all together and replaced it with the name Lord. "The More You Know" Faith in Eternal Life: John 17:3 And this is eternal life—that they know you, the only true God, Jehovah, and Jesus Christ whom you have sent. Matthew 25:46 And these will go away into eternal punishment, but the righteous will go into eternal life. John 5:24 Truly, truly, I say to you, whoever hears my word and believes Jehovah who sent me Jesus, has eternal life. He does not come into judgment, but has passed from death to life. How to Endure Temptation? James 1:13-18 Let no man say when he is tempted, I am tempted by Jehovah: for Jehovah cannot be tempted with evil, nor tempteth he any man: But every man is tempted, when he is drawn away from his own lust, and enticed... Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and cometh down from the Father of Lights, with whom there is no variableness, no shadow of turning. Of his own will begat he us with the word of truth, that we should be a kind of first fruits of his creatures. Jesus and His Relationship with God No One Has Seen God Except Jesus: John 1:18 states, “No one has ever seen God; the only God, except Jesus, who is at the Father’s side, he has made him known.” This verse emphasizes that Jesus uniquely reveals God to humanity. If you’ve seen Jesus, you’ve encountered God’s Spirit in him, but you did not see God. The Bible states in Exodus 33:20 Jehovah says, “You cannot see my face, for man shall not see me and live.” Which means Jesus was not God, as if Jesus were God, then everyone would have died that looked upon Jesus. Jesus’ Words About His Father: Jesus acknowledges the Father’s greatness. He says, “My Father (Jehovah) is greater than I, Jesus” (John 14:28). Why Did Jesus Say, “Why Do You Call Me Good?”: When someone addressed Jesus as “good,” Jesus responded, “Why do you call me good? Jesus said, No one is good except God (Jehovah) alone” (Mark 10:18). Jesus didn’t claim equality with God in every aspect. Jesus’ Prayers to God (Jehovah): Jesus prayed to God, demonstrating His dependence and relationship with the Father Jehovah. His prayers were genuine, not for show. For instance, in the Garden of Gethsemane, He prayed fervently before His arrest (Matthew 26:36-46). You Are gods: In Psalm 82:6, it says, “I said, ‘You are gods; you are all sons of the Most High.’” Jesus referenced this passage when confronted by the Jews, who accused Him of making Himself equal to God (John 10:34-36). The context suggests that humans, as God’s representatives, are called “gods” (with a lowercase “g”). The Father, the Holy Spirit, and the Word are "ONE" as stated in 1 John 5:7. Just as a married couple becomes "ONE" flesh, they work together as "ONE", as stated in Mark 10:8. This does not mean two fleshly bodies become one fleshly body; it just means two people are working together as one. As all three Father, the Holy Spirit, and Jesus work together as One. Jesus Praying to God, Jehovah Hebrews 5:7 "Jesus offered up both prayers and supplications with loud crying and tears to the One (Jehovah) able to save Him from death, and He was heard because of His piety." Luke 3:21 "Now when all the people were baptized, Jesus was also baptized, and while Jesus was praying, heaven was opened," Matthew 14:23 "After He had sent the crowds away, Jesus went up on the mountain by Himself to pray; and when it was evening, He was there alone." (This verse shows us that Jesus was not praying to show others how to pray, because Jesus went by himself to pray alone, and praying to his Father, Jehovah.) Mark 6:46 After bidding them farewell, Jesus left for the mountain to pray. Luke 6:12 It was at this time that He went off to the mountain to pray, and Jesus spent the whole night in prayer to God. Mark 1:35 In the early morning, while it was still dark, Jesus got up, left the house, went away to a secluded place, and was praying there. Luke 5:16 But Jesus Himself would often slip away to the wilderness and pray. Luke 9:18 And it happened that while Jesus was praying alone, the disciples were with Him, and He questioned them, saying, “Who do the people say that I am?” Matthew 26:36 Then Jesus came with them to a place called Gethsemane, and said to His disciples, “Sit here while I go over there and pray.” Matthew 26:39 And Jesus went a little beyond them, and fell on His face and prayed, saying, “My Father (Jehovah), if it is possible, let this cup pass from Me; yet not as I will, but as You will.” Matthew 26:42 Jesus went away again a second time and prayed, saying, “My Father (Jehovah), if this cannot pass away unless I drink it, Your will be done.” Matthew 26:44 And Jesus left them again, and went away and prayed a third time, saying the same thing once more. Mark 14:32 They came to a place named Gethsemane; and Jesus said to His disciples, “Sit here until I have prayed.” Mark 14:35 And Jesus went a little beyond them, and fell to the ground and began to pray that if it were possible, the hour might pass Him by. Mark 14:39 Again Jesus went away and prayed, saying the same words. There are several more verses where Jesus prayed to Father Jehovah, but it will take of the entire page writing them. You get the picture though. The Mark of the Beast: What Does Revelation 13:17 Say? “so that no one can buy, sell or trade unless he has the mark, that is, the name of the beast or the number of its name.” This verse continues to describe the False Prophet’s implementation of the “mark of the beast.” The Greek word used here is “charagma,” which originally referred to the branding of livestock. But in this context, it symbolizes something far more profound—a mark that identifies the bearer as loyal to the Antichrist. (Revelation 13:16) "he causes all, both small and great, both rich and poor, both free and slave, to be marked on the right hand or the forehead" "If You Worship the Beast or take the Mark" (Revelation 14:9-11) And the third angel followed them, saying with a loud voice, If any man worship the beast and his image, and receives his mark in his forehead, or in his hand, The same shall drink of the wine of the wrath of God, which is poured out without mixture into the cup of his indignation; and he shall be tormented with fire and brimstone in the presence of the holy angels, and in the presence of the Lamb. Jehovah Saints is Strong Faith like Abraham, David and Solomon: Biblical Polygamy Strong Faith means we have a better understanding of God. David’s Wives and God’s Role In 2 Samuel 12:7-8, God gave David all of Saul’s wives. These women were given to David directly by God Himself. This act demonstrates that God did not see anything wrong with David having multiple wives. Other Biblical Examples of Polygamy King David was not the only man in the Bible with multiple wives. Father Abraham, another great man of God, had two wives and also had children with his girlfriends. King Solomon, renowned for his wisdom, had several wives and girlfriends. Esteemed Men in God’s Eyes. Despite their polygamous relationships, both David and Solomon were highly esteemed by God. Their actions were recorded in the Bible for us to learn from.. Differing Views Among Preachers Interestingly, many preachers today do not believe that having multiple wives is right. They often reference the teachings of Paul, whose faith was weak, Paul did not have a good understanding of God. Paul believes in one man and one wife, but God is fine with multiple wives, as Jehovah gave David all of Saul's wives. Romans 14 explains to us, what is sin to one person, is not sin to another. Romans 14 also explains, one person is weak in faith, and one is strong in faith. And the stronger faith, is not to tempt the weaker faith with what the weaker faith thinks is sin, because it really is sin to them but not sin to you. Sin is just a mistake; if you feel you made a mistake, just pray and ask God to forgive you, and God forgives and forgets. So if you were to pray again about what you thought was a mistake, God would not know what you were talking about. If the weaker faith person you tempted were to partake in what they think is sin, it is sin to them, and it harms them spiritually. When the spirit hurts, it does bodily harm, as stated in Proverbs 17:22 "...a broken spirit dries the bones." This verse explains to us, if you are hurting spiritually, it does bodily harm, you become ill, thinking you did something wrong, even though it is acceptable in God's eyes. Like I said, if you think you did something wrong, just ask for forgiveness, and God will heal your body. God’s Unchanging Nature The Bible asserts that God does not change; He remains the same yesterday, today, and forever. If God saw fit to bless David with multiple wives, who are we to say it was wrong? Christian Polygamy Contrary to some beliefs, Christian polygamy is not considered a sin in God's eyes. Instead of judging, we should pray for understanding when faced with differing viewpoints, as stated in Romans chapter 14. Trusting in God’s Wisdom Let us trust in God’s wisdom, even when His plans don’t align with our own beliefs. Just as David, Abraham, and Solomon had multiple wives, and girlfriends and they followed God’s will, we should seek to align ourselves with His divine plan. God’s Ways Are Higher Isaiah 55:8-9 reminds us that God’s ways are not our ways, and His thoughts are higher than ours. "And, Jesus said, the truth will set you free. John 8:32" “Top 4 Programs” Jehovah Saints Programs: 1. **Homeless Shelter Program**: Plans to purchase property and build Jehovah Saints homeless shelters throughout the USA, then globally. One vehicle per shelter, computers inside shelters for the homeless to find jobs, counseling for homeless via Zoom, and more. QLink Wireless has partnered with us to supply every homeless person with mobile phones. and assistance with finding permanent housing. James 2:15 "If a brother or sister is poorly clothed and lacking in daily food, and one of you says to them, 'Go in peace, be warmed and filled,' without giving them the things needed for the body, what good is that?" 2. **Bible Classes in Schools Initiative**: We advocate for the inclusion of Bible classes in schools, understanding the importance of character development and moral education. Through this initiative, we work with schools and educational authorities to introduce Bible classes into schools, giving students the opportunity to learn about God's teachings and values. The Value of Bible Classes in Schools in Promoting Understanding and Peace: "Strive for peace with everyone, and for the holiness without which no one will see the Lord." Hebrews 12:14 The importance of having Bible classes in schools goes beyond just the words "In God We Trust" on our money and "One Nation Under God" in our pledge of allegiance. Many children do not even know who God is, and do not have parents who teach them about God's Word, leaving them with limited understanding of religious beliefs and values. By incorporating Bible classes into schools, children can gain a better understanding of God and God's principles that guide their faith. We put God on our money and say in our pledge of allegiance, but no one can tell the children about God. Isaiah 60:12 "For the nation and kingdom that will not serve Jehovah shall perish; yea, those nations shall be utterly wasted." The Bible helps to promote moral values and ethics, ultimately reducing violence and promoting peace in our communities. It is essential for children to have a solid foundation in their religious beliefs in order to navigate the challenges of the modern world. How many children do you know that read their Bible every day and then go out and commit a school shooting? Help us put an end to school violence by sharing our site with others. Proverbs 22:6 "Train up a child in the way he should go: And when he is old, he will not depart from it." The Bible states we learn from one another, but what are these children learning? Proverbs 27:17 "Iron sharpeneth iron; so a man sharpeneth the countenance of his friend.' 3. **Pro-Life Campaign**: Our pro-life campaign aims to raise awareness about the value of human life and advocate for alternatives to abortion. We provide resources and support to pregnant women facing challenging circumstances, offering counseling, education. "The Sanctity of Life: A Spiritual Perspective on the Beginning of Life" Let's discuss the beginning of life. Life begins when the heart starts beating, as this signifies the presence of a soul within the body. I have personally received guidance from God on this matter. Your soul is connected to the "Sinus Node" area of the heart, which sends out electrical impulses throughout the body, sending messages from Soul to Human Brain. Bible states, flesh (brain) is weak, but the Soul is strong, and the Holy Ghost is stronger. In the Bible, it is mentioned that God is aware of your thoughts in both the heart and mind. This shows that God knows what you are "thinking" constantly. Your soul is often referred to as the subconscious mind by doctors, and it holds more information than the human brain. Traumatic events are stored in the subconscious mind, also called soul, and may not be fully known to the conscious brain. The subconscious mind is “part” of the “soul” also known as “spirit” or “ghost” like the Holy Ghost. Doctors declare a person clinically dead, once all the electricity has left the body; this means the Soul has left the body, as the Soul is no longer attached to the "Sinus Node" area of the heart. From this understanding, we can conclude that once a baby's heart starts beating, the baby has a soul and is alive. I have witnessed a heartbreaking incident where a doctor callously disregarded the life of an abortion baby, by placing it on the counter, then instructing the nurse to discard the baby into the trashcan once it stopped moving. Such heartlessness is truly disturbing. Jeremiah 1:5 “Before Jehovah formed you in the womb, He knew you." Psalm 139:13-16 "For Jehovah formed my inward parts; God knitted me together in my mother's womb. I praise you, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made." Job 31:15 "Did not Jehovah who made me in the womb, make them? Did not the same one form us both within our mothers?" 4. **Prison Ministry**: Our prison ministry program aims to support incarcerated individuals in their spiritual and personal growth. We provide regular visits, mentorship, and pastoral care to prisoners, helping them develop a strong moral foundation, find meaning in their lives, and prepare for successful re-entry into society. Additionally, we offer programs such as educational classes, vocational training, and counseling to empower prisoners to rebuild their lives. A lot of Strong Faith people are in prisons, just like in Biblical Times.. Hebrews 13:3 "Remember those who are in prison, as though in prison with them, and those who are mistreated, since you also are in the body."
