12. LYDIA'NME

 Paul's great patron..the seller of blue die was named Lydia.  She provided him with a place to teach his followers, and  contributed much in the way of financial support.

My beautiful wife was named  Lydia.  She  passed away over a year ago. The light of my life was extinguished. 

Lydia was born in Poland of German and Polish parents.  She lived  in Germany throughout World War II..underwent continuous bombing..barely escaped the Russians in a crowded box car..strafed by fighter plane. I was in two wars and she saw more combat than I did.  

She was raised Catholic, as was her mother, but her mother's mother was Jewish. But neither Lydia nor her mother looked like what the Gestapo would think was a Jew and their name was Martin.  Her father was drafted as a soldier late in the war, when they were down to selecting older and younger males. So, with God's help she survived the terror.  and came to the US as a young war bride.  

I met her a couple of years after her divorce.  Not long after our meeting we were married.  The marriage had its ups and downs..but we made it through over 62 years..during which over five years were spent legally separated..neither wanted permanent separation.

Because she was a "closet" Catholic, I believe she was uncomfortable with my portraying Jesus.  Thank God she wasn't a practicing  Catholic.  She was concerned about being a divocee.  So, I never told Lydia about the "visits" by God's messengers. It happened during our separation.  I was concerned that it might change our relationship.

 As I said in the video, only my buddy, Mike was told of it.He knew where all the "skeletons" were.   We were in the cult together. To give you an idea about this cult,  when I took a permanent "leave of absence", he was told not to talk to me, and he didn't for several years.

The "visits" just seemed to come back to me after so many years, following her death.  It was as if my need to tell the "world" that God exists would help fill the hole in my heart.  There are so many millions in this world that are searching for the truth, and my video..my very existence is living proof.

I'm only sorry I waited so long, but Lydia  was my reason.  

Then, when I started on my crusade to bring out the truth of God' existence through my video, Paul's teachings came to the forefront, and it was then I realized that I have a two-fold mission.

But, once again, I can't go to the same churches to which I've sent the video to help spread the word of God's existence with the Obscure Teachings of Paul, for the same reason I couldn't tell them the real reason for doing my one-man play on Paul.   

So I turn to the internet and my Bully Pulpit, rather than go to organizations, to bring his teaching to individuals..you.

Paul says that Satan rules the airways..the internet is one, so I'm using the Adversary's tools to promote the truth.  I only hope that the Father continues to protect me..bob4paul
