<h2>Lo que dice la biblia</h2>
<p><span><span>Dando</span> <span>referencia</span> a lo <span>que</span> dice la <span>biblia</span>, <span>los</span> <span>sacerdotes</span> <span>del</span> <span>Señor</span> <span>tenian</span> <span>esposas</span>, e <span>hijos</span>. Aaron <span>siendo</span> <span>el</span> primer <span>sacerdote</span> <span>escogido</span> <span>por</span> <span>el</span> <span>Señor</span> <span>mismo</span> (<span>Exodo</span> 28:1-3, 40-43, 29:1-9) <span>tenia</span> <span>hijos</span>.<span id="more-104"></span></span></p>
<address style="padding-left: 30px;"><span><span>Jehová</span> <span>ablando</span> con Moises <span>le</span> dice:<br />
</span><strong><a href="http://www.youversion.com/bible/exod.28.rvr60-es">Exodo 28:1-3</a></strong><br />
<strong>1</strong> Harás llegar delante de ti a Aarón tu hermano, y a sus hijos consigo, de entre los hijos de Israel, para que sean mis sacerdotes; a Aarón y a Nadab, Abiú, Eleazar e Itamar hijos de Aarón. <strong>2</strong> Y harás vestidurás sagradas a Aarón tu hermano, para honra y hermosura <strong>3</strong> Y tú hablarás a todos los sabios de corazón, a quienes yo he llenado de espíritu de sabiduría, para que hagan las vestiduras de Aarón, para <strong>consagrarle para que sea mi sacerdote.</strong></address>
<p><span><span>Este</span> <span>versiculo</span> <span>de</span> <span>Exodo</span> nos <span>da</span> a <span>entender</span> <span>claramente</span> <span>que</span> <span>el</span> primer <span>sacerdote</span> <span>de</span> la <span>biblia</span>, <span>consagrado</span> y <span>escogido</span> <span>exclusivamente</span> <span>por</span> <span>Dios</span>, <span>tenia</span> <span>hijos</span>, y <span>naturalmente</span> <span>tambien</span> <span>tenia</span> <span>esposa</span>.</span></p>
<address style="padding-left: 30px;"><strong><a href="http://bible.us/exod28.40.rvr60-es">Exodo 28:40-43</a></strong><br />
<strong>40</strong><span> Y para <span>los</span> <span>hijos</span> <span>de</span> <span>Aarón</span> <span>harás</span> <span>túnicas</span>; <span>también</span> <span>les</span> <span>harás</span> <span>cintos</span>, y <span>les</span> <span>harás</span> tiaras para <span>honra</span> y <span>hermosura</span>.  </span><strong>41</strong><span> Y con <span>ellos</span> <span>vestirás</span> a <span>Aarón</span> <span>tu</span> <span>hermano</span>, y a <span>sus</span> <span>hijos</span> con <span>él</span>; y <span>los</span> <span>ungirás</span>, y <span>los</span> <span>consagrarás</span> y <span>santificarás</span>, para <span>que</span> <span>sean</span> <span>mis</span> <span>sacerdotes</span>. </span><strong>42</strong><span> Y <span>les</span> <span>harás</span> <span>calzoncillos</span> <span>de</span> lino para <span>cubrir</span> <span>su</span> <span>desnudez</span>; <span>serán</span> desde <span>los</span> lomos hasta <span>los</span> muslos. </span><strong>43</strong><span> Y estarán <span>sobre</span> <span>Aarón</span> y <span>sobre</span> <span>sus</span> <span>hijos</span> cuando entren en <span>el</span> tabernáculo <span>de</span> reunión, o cuando <span>se</span> acerquen al altar para servir en <span>el</span> santuario, para <span>que</span> no lleven pecado y mueran. Es estatuto perpetuo para <span>él</span>, y para <span>su</span> descendencia después <span>de</span> <span>él</span>.</span></address>
<p><span>Aqui nos habla <span>de</span> como <span>tambien</span> <span>los</span> <span>hijos</span> <span>de</span> <span>Aarón</span>, <span>Nadab</span>, <span>Abiú</span>, Eleazar e <span>Itamar</span> <span>fueron</span> <span>tambien</span> escogidos y consagrados para <span>el</span> sacerdocio.  En ninguna parte <span>de</span> la <span>biblia</span> dice <span>que</span> no <span>les</span> es permitido tener mujer, o <span>hijos</span>.  </span></p>
<address style="padding-left: 30px;"><strong><span>Consagración <span>de</span> <span>Aarón</span> y <span>de</span> <span>sus</span> <span>hijos</span></span><br />
<a href="http://www.youversion.com/bible/exod.29.rvr60-es">Exodo 29: 1-9</a><br />
1</strong><span> Esto es lo <span>que</span> <span>les</span> <span>harás</span> para consagrarlos, para <span>que</span> <span>sean</span> <span>mis</span> <span>sacerdotes</span>: Toma <span>un</span> becerro <span>de</span> la vacada, y dos carneros sin defecto;</span> <strong>2</strong><span> y panes sin levadura, y tortas sin levadura amasadas con aceite, y hojaldres sin levadura untadas con aceite; <span>las</span> <span>harás</span> <span>de</span> flor <span>de</span> harina <span>de</span> trigo. </span> <strong>3</strong><span> Y <span>las</span> pondrás en <span>un</span> canastillo, y en <span>el</span> canastillo <span>las</span> ofrecerás, con <span>el</span> becerro y <span>los</span> dos carneros. </span> <strong>4</strong><span> Y llevarás a <span>Aarón</span> y a <span>sus</span> <span>hijos</span> a la puerta <span>del</span> tabernáculo <span>de</span> reunión, y <span>los</span> lavarás con agua. </span> <strong>5</strong><span> Y tomarás <span>las</span> <span>vestiduras</span>, y <span>vestirás</span> a <span>Aarón</span> la túnica, <span>el</span> manto <span>del</span> efod, <span>el</span> efod y <span>el</span> pectoral, y <span>le</span> ceñirás con <span>el</span> cinto <span>del</span> efod; </span> <strong>6</strong><span> y pondrás la mitra <span>sobre</span> <span>su</span> cabeza, y <span>sobre</span> la mitra pondrás la diadema santa. </span> <strong>7</strong><span> Luego tomarás <span>el</span> aceite <span>de</span> la unción, y lo derramarás <span>sobre</span> <span>su</span> cabeza, y <span>le</span> <span>ungirás</span>. </span> <strong>8</strong><span> Y <span>harás</span> <span>que</span> <span>se</span> acerquen <span>sus</span> <span>hijos</span>, y <span>les</span> <span>vestirás</span> <span>las</span> <span>túnicas</span>.</span> <strong>9</strong><span> Les ceñirás <span>el</span> cinto a <span>Aarón</span> y a <span>sus</span> <span>hijos</span>, y <span>les</span> atarás <span>las</span> tiaras, y tendrán <span>el</span> sacerdocio <span>por</span> derecho perpetuo. Así <span>consagrarás</span> a <span>Aarón</span> y a <span>sus</span> <span>hijos</span>.</span></address>
<p><span>En esta porcion <span>de</span> <span>Exodo</span> 29, miramos como <span>Dios</span> dijo a Moises <span>que</span> hiciera para consagrar a <span>Aarón</span> y a <span>sus</span> <span>hijos</span> para <span>el</span> sacerdocio.  Nada dice acerca <span>de</span> <span>que</span> no <span>se</span> podian casar y tener <span>hijos</span>, dice todo lo contrario <span>que</span> <span>tenia</span> <span>hijos</span>, y obio, <span>que</span> <span>tenia</span> <span>esposa</span>.</span></p>
<h2><strong><em>En el Nuevo Testamento</em></strong></h2>
<p>En la carta escrita por Pablo a los Corintios, en el capitulo 7 les da consejos sobre el matrimonio.</p>
<address style="padding-left: 30px;"><strong><a href="http://www.youversion.com/bible/1cor.7.rvr60-es">1 Corintios 7</a><br />
1</strong> En cuanto a las cosas de que me escribisteis, bueno le sería al hombre no tocar mujer; <strong>2</strong> pero a causa de las fornicaciones, cada uno tenga su propia mujer, y cada una tenga su propio marido. <strong>3</strong> El marido cumpla con la mujer el deber conyugal, y asimismo la mujer con el marido. <strong>4</strong> La mujer no tiene potestad sobre su propio cuerpo, sino el marido; ni tampoco tiene el marido potestad sobre su propio cuerpo, sino la mujer. <strong>5</strong> No os neguéis el uno al otro, a no ser por algún tiempo de mutuo consentimiento, para ocuparos sosegadamente en la oración; y volved a juntaros en uno, para que no os tiente Satanás a causa de vuestra incontinencia. <strong>6</strong> Mas esto digo por vía de concesión, no por mandamiento.</address>
<p>Claramente nos dice Pablo que &#8220;cada uno tenga su propia mujer&#8221; por que? &#8220;a causa de las fornicaciones&#8221; que es lo que ha estado pasando con los lideres de las iglesias Catolica Romana.</p>
<p>Luego tambien dice:</p>
<address style="padding-left: 30px;"><strong><a href="http://bible.us/1cor7.8.rvr60-es">1 Corintios 7</a><br />
8</strong> Digo, pues, a los solteros y a las viudas, que bueno les fuera quedarse como yo; <strong>9</strong> pero si no tienen don de continencia, cásense, pues mejor es casarse que estarse quemando.</address>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;">Esto es lo que dice la biblia acerca de los saserdotes del antiguo testamento, y hacerca de la opinion que el apostol Pablo tiene acerca del matrimonio.  Claramente, a los ministros del Señor no se les niega casarse, y tener familia, de otra manera estaria escrito en la biblia.</p>
<h2><strong>De lo que si nos devemos de alejar</strong></h2>
<p>Cuando los Fariceos empesaron a molestar a los recien convertidos (cristianos) a que tenian que seguir las ordenansas de la ley.  Los apostoles se juntaron y escriviendo cartas a los ancianos de las iglecias de los gentiles ordenaron esto:</p>
<address style="padding-left: 30px;"><strong><a href="http://bible.us/acts15.28.rvr60-es">Hechos 15</a><br />
28</strong> Porque ha parecido bien al Espíritu Santo, y a nosotros, no imponeros ninguna carga más que estas cosas necesarias: <strong>29</strong> que os abstengáis de lo sacrificado a ídolos, de sangre, de ahogado y de fornicación; de las cuales cosas si os guardareis, bien haréis. Pasadlo bien</address>
<p>Nos podemos dar cuenta que de ninguna manera ordeno que se obstenieran de casarse o tener hijos,</p>
<h2>Conclusion</h2>
<p>Ya que hemos mirado en la biblia, acerca los primeros saserdotes para el ministerio del Señor, en el antiguo testamento, y hemos mirado lo que los apostoles nos dicen acerca del matrimonio, y de las cosas de las que nos devemos de alejar, cabe decir que esto de no casarse para los lideres en las iglesias catolicas, ¡son solamente leyes de hombres! y como dice la biblia:</p>
<address style="padding-left: 30px;"><strong><a href="http://bible.us/isa8.20.rvr60-es">Isaias 8</a><br />
20</strong> ¡A la ley y al testimonio! Si no dijeren conforme a esto, es porque no les ha amanecido.</address>
<p>Amen!</p>

Saliendo de la cafetería iba caminando por el sacate, cuando de pronto escuche una voz. Dijo &#8220;verdolagas en el suelo&#8221; dos veces, y voltee a mirar quien era, y era ella. Mi corazón se lleno de alegría y sorpresa, y la salude y empecé a platicar con ella. La acompañe hasta la librería, donde ella empezó a hacer su tarea. Luego le dije, “voy a traer unas cosas, ahorita regreso”. Y yendo por el pasillo desperté y me di cuenta que era solo un sueño.</p>

The clicking was coming from the left side of the dashboard, from the driver side.  What had happen was a faulty relay, causing issues.  Another thing that was making it worst, was a faulty, from manufacturer BCM (body control module). </p>
<p><span id="more-24"></span></p>
<p>So the clicking got worst, until it stopped.  Right after it stopped, the battery light and the &#8220;service vehicle soon&#8221; light came on. </p>
<p>After this incident, a fuse was busted.  Replaced the fused, same thing happen.  But before the fuse went out, the bcm started smoking. </p>
<p><em>note: Get the new one.  I got a rebuild BCM and when I took the car to the dealer to reprogram, the rebuild BCM was already programmed with another vin number </em></p>
<p>So I got started on taring down my car:<br />
So lets get the old BCM out!</p>
<p>Started by removing the cover, under the steering well.</p>
<p><a href="http://elamigosam.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/20111227-141430.jpg"><img src="http://elamigosam.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/20111227-141430.jpg" alt="20111227-141430.jpg" class="alignnone size-full" /></a></p>
<p>Then removed the aluminum cover.</p>
<p><a href="http://elamigosam.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/20111228-083342.jpg"><img src="http://elamigosam.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/20111228-083342.jpg" alt="20111228-083342.jpg" class="alignnone size-full" /></a></p>
<p>The BCM is located all the way under the steering wheel shaft.   </p>
<p><a href="http://elamigosam.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/20111228-083728.jpg"><img src="http://elamigosam.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/20111228-083728.jpg" alt="20111228-083728.jpg" class="alignnone size-full" /></a><br />
The connectors are colored, pink, white and blue.  </p>
<p>This is what the BCM looks like:</p>
<p><a href="http://elamigosam.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/20111228-084241.jpg"><img src="http://elamigosam.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/20111228-084241.jpg" alt="20111228-084241.jpg" class="alignnone size-full" /></a></p>
<p>After taking out the old BCM, I went and got the new one.  So, I went to my local auto part store, they had 2 options.  The new $200.00 and the &#8220;rebuild&#8221; $85.00.  Obviously I got the cheaper &#8220;rebuild&#8221; option.</p>
<p>I installed it, connected the cables to it and put everything back together.<br />
I then went ahead and turned on the switch, locked!<br />
It looked like it was working fine, but the stereo was locked.  I then tried to start the car, no luck!  </p>
<p>After this i started to search online and found a <a href="http://www.justanswer.com/chevy/2k85q-2003-chevy-impala-replaced-bcm-cure-problems-warning.html">website</a> that listed a method, for unlocking the new bcm.  This method will transfer the lock codes from the car, to the new bcm.  With this, i finaly got my car started.</p>
<blockquote><p>
OK, try the relearn again.<br />
Turn ON the ignition, with the engine OFF.<br />
Attempt to start the engine, then release the key to ON (vehicle will not start).<br />
Observe the SECURITY telltale, after approximately 10 minutes the telltale will turn OFF.<br />
Turn OFF the ignition, and wait 5 seconds.<br />
Repeat steps 1 through 4 two more times for a total of 3 cycles/30 minutes (the vehicle is now ready to relearn the PasslockTM Sensor Data Code and/or passwords on the next ignition switch transition from OFF to CRANK).<br />
Important: The vehicle learns the PasslockTM Sensor Data Code and/or password XXXXX the next ignition switch transition from OFF to CRANK. You must turn the ignition OFF before attempting to start the vehicle.<br />
Start the engine (the vehicle has now learned the PasslockTM Sensor Data Code and/or password).
</p></blockquote>
<p>Although i got the car started, the stereo was still locked!  I was not able to hear music, and a &#8220;service vehicle soon&#8221; and &#8220;check engine&#8221; lights where on. With the car running, i took it to GMC, for them to unlock it and get it fully functional again.  </p>
<p>After an hour, the tech told me that<br />
<blockquote>the Rebuild BMC is already programed with another vin number</p></blockquote>
<p> what did that ment? That i had to start all over again.  The car ended up running and working, but with the service lights on.</p>
<p>The next week, i went to get a replacement for the bad BCM.  They ordered another one, and after 3 day i had on my hands.  So i went to GMC and schedule another appointment.  Since they were not able to fix my problem the last time, this next appointment was going to be free, yes!!!</p>
<p>I took the car in.  Because i didn&#8217;t want to reinstall the BCM and make it learn the codes again, i took the car in and explained to the tech that i still had to remove the bad BCM and physically install the new one.  I took the car in and removed the old bcm and installed the new one, &#8220;piece of cake!!!&#8221;. </p>
<p>After another hour, Finally my car was fully functional again!  No service lights, no errors. </p>
<p>Things that i learned: </p>
<ul>
<li>On computer related parts don&#8217;t buy rebuild!</li>
<li>make sure to keep all receipts specially from auto parts!</li>
</ul>

To start with, yesterday (friday) I tought it was saturday, for some reason.  Who knows why!  proabably because I had to do some stuff that I would usualy do on saturadays.<span id="more-22"></span></p>
<p>First of all, I went to visit some old friends, where I used to work.  I had to take the laptop that I am currently working on, to have them take a look at it.  The client wanted me to do that, just in case I miss something.  Anyhow they cound not find a fix to the problem, (no video on the screen)  Just as I thought.</p>
<p>After that I went to the auto part store, to see if they could help me with my car problems.  Turns out, I have to replace the &#8220;head light relay&#8221;  but its more difficult than I thought!  I had one of the guys from the store go out with me and try to remove the known bad relay.  But it turns out, the one he got out, is only the spare one.  The real one, is located underneath the whole fuse panel.  Some how I need to remove the fuse panel and pull out the bad relay.  I have read online that this issue could be related to the main computer of the car, but I am not sure, this car is a impala 2003.</p>
<p>Then after that, I went home and started watching movies on my iPad.  Realy simple once you get is going. It works like this:</p>
<ol>
<li>Install a program called VLC Stream on the local computer,</li>
<li>get the free app from the app store, with the same name.</li>
<li>then tell VLC Stream where are is your folder with movies</li>
<li>then from the app, browse to the one you wanna watch.</li>
<li>bam, start watching movies on your iPad, is that simple!</li>
</ol>
<div>I really like that program, specialy because its free, there are some adds but I just cover them with the cover of my iPad.</div>
<div>It was a productive Saturday, although today I realized that it was not Saturday, that in fact it was Friday! I was disappointed, but happy because i have one more day to enjoy!</div>

<p>Our regular supervisor has taken his vacations days off. Today we have his boss taking over his position, not the same!  I have never seen him that mad, something tells me that he didn&#8217;t knew how his guy was doing this job.  Well after two and a half hours of initial setup, we are finally making the order of the day.  It has been a difficult day today, a lot of running around making this day go by fast!</p>
