Merry Christmas and a Happy New year!

If any body believes in Jesus, then you probably wonder if Jesus was born on December 25. I have wondered about this since I was a child growing up. You also are maybe wondering what the star was in the distance and what caused that to happen. I have researched this for a long time and I think I might have some answers for you.
What I found out was Jesus was born on April17 6BC and King Herod was still alive. You see King Herod died in 4Bc so Jesus had to be alive before King Herod died. Remember in Matthew 2:16 that he tried to kill Jesus after he found out that the wise men had deceived him. The star was an alignment of some of the plants in Aries the ram, and it meant that a great king would be arriving. Greater than any other alignment in history, and the wise men knew this from studying the stars.If you read your horoscope about Aries:Aries Personality:
As the first sign of the zodiac, the presence of an Aries almost always indicates the beginning of something energetic and boisterous. Not much holds this sign back. They're eager, dynamic, quick, and competitive. When it comes to getting the ball rolling, an Aries is the best. Pioneering everything from work-related projects to parties with friends, these folks go for the gusto.
Aries Key Words:
Strengths:Courage, determination, self-confidence, enthusiasm.
Weaknesses:Impatience, silly arguments, allowing fear to limit choices.
Charismatic marks:Athletic body, youthful attitude, a need to take the lead.
Likes:Comfortable clothes, taking the lead, physical challenges, individual sports.
Dislikes:Inactivity, delays, work that doesn't use one's talents.
Best environment:Any situation that requires action, courage in the face of fear, competition, and freedom of choice. Aries individuals are better outside being active than staying close to home.Aries (♈) is the first astrological sign in the Zodiac, named for the constellation of Aries, called "The Ram" in the Greek tradition, after the golden ram that rescued Phrixos, taking him to the land of Colchis.
In tropical astrology, this sign is no longer aligned with the constellation as a result of the precession of the equinoxes. Under the tropical zodiac, the Sun is in Aries roughly from March 21 to April 19, by definition beginning at vernal equinox. Under the sidereal zodiac, it is currently there roughly from April 15 to May 15.
Individuals born when the Sun was in this sign are considered "Aries individuals" or "Arians" [2]. In Western astrology, Aries is considered a "masculine", positive (extrovert) sign. It is also considered a fire sign, and is one of four cardinal signs.[3] Aries is ruled by the planet Mars. Being the first sign in the zodiac, Aries is associated with the astrological first house. The Sanskrit name of Aries in Hindu astrology is Meṣa.
If you look closely at Aries you'll see what I'm talking about.
Merry Christmas to all and a Happy New year!!!!

Buying and selling land

I just got finished watching a live webinar and learned some new stuff. Seems that you can get on the Internet and do a search for tax sale listings or county records and find list of raw land for sale. At least in Texas it seems,and look through county records to see if you can buy the land before the sale.
That's right, I said before the sale of the land, this way you can send out a special letter the the owner of the property and you don't even call the owner, until (maybe) latter. Find out if there is any more owed on the property and make them an offer to buy. Why, do you ask yourself ,why land? because when you buy you use owner financing to purchase the land. Land is very difficult to sell right now, and the banks aren't loaning very much on land right now, It's hard enough to get a loan on houses. Remember these people or in some kind of trouble with the site or the taxes would be paid. It's going to auction right!
So let's say that you get a letter back and a signed deed, Now you can find a buyer. Maybe it's the guy next to the lot that want to buy it to expand, or maybe a library want more parking around the block , or maybe some one wants to build a house on the lot. There's all kinds of buyers if a deal lands in their lap. You know how hard it is to find out who owns a piece of property when you go by in your merry little way and you say to yourself, I wonder who owns that lot there , that seat there and nothing ever happens to it.
You can take the property address and google map it ,to get a birds eye view of the surrounding area. You might just see something around there that could spark your interest. And you know how to get in touch with the owner, or should I say seller, or buyer.You might even get another idea to JV with that owner. Who know until you do it, and when you do do it, your doing the right way and know body can tell you different. Google, Fannie may promissory note or or go to Stewart tittle online and get all the forms you need like, land trust documents and create a land trust with the property.Sell the property the same way by owner financing, so the property will move quickly and you can receive monthly positive cash flow for a good long time, Like three to five years or what ever you can get, but keep in mind not to get upside down on the payments, so you have to come up with cash out of your pocket.
Any thoughts on buying and selling land do you guy's have?
