The disciples of THE SYNAGOGUE OF SATAN have to fight each other as THE LIGHT - THE TRUTH - JESUS CHRIST has already PREVAILED over THE DARKNESS - THE LIE - SATAN so the only thing that is left to fight for is which position in HELL each of the disciples of THE SYNAGOGUE OF SATAN are going to inherit .... the only ALTERNATIVE being to turn to JESUS CHRIST - THE WAY THE TRUTH AND THE LIFE which for THE EGO of THE PRETENTIOUS HUMAN MIND is quite a feat, while actually only being a little step down from the ladder of PRIDE ARROGANCE HYPOCRISY AND HUBRIS
1As Jesus left the temple and was walking away, His disciples came up to Him to point out its buildings.
2“Do you see all these things?” He replied. “Truly I tell you, not one stone here will be left on another; every one will be thrown down.” - Matt 24, 1-2
4Jesus answered, “See to it that no one deceives you. 5For many will come in My name, claiming, ‘I am the Christ,’ and will deceive many. 6You will hear of wars and rumors of wars, but see to it that you are not alarmed. These things must happen, but the end is still to come. 7Nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. There will be famines and earthquakes in various places. 8All these are the beginning of birth pains. - Matt 24, 4-8
"the only ALTERNATIVE being to turn to JESUS CHRIST - THE WAY THE TRUTH AND THE LIFE which for THE EGO of THE PRETENTIOUS HUMAN MIND is quite a feat, while actually only being a little step down from the ladder of PRIDE ARROGANCE HYPOCRISY AND HUBRIS."
Bingo! Thank you OE for summarizing it all in one sentence. The spiritual war between the human ego and the human spirit will continue on and on. There is only one alternative, but humans think there will be peace on earth without that alternative. Hubris again at work. Thank you for the quotes - so very spot on for these times.
There is no greater pleasure than serving GOD ALMIGHTY and being given HIS PEACE - AMEN HALLELU-YAH!
So ALL PRAISE AND GLORY - being expressed not seldom feels hollow and meaningless knowing one can never be sure about the SINCERITY of it - BELONGS TO GOD ALMIGHTY - IN JESUS CHRIST AND THE HOLY SPIRIT!
I certainly agree with your assessment of the state of affairs in the middle east and beyond. I guess it's easier to be hateful and blame others for your troubles instead of looking into your own soul and examine your thoughts and actions and ask God for help in making changes like repenting of selfishness, immature behaviors and the blame games. It is hard to admit your own imperfections especially if you see so many in others that are not trying to be a better person. I know I struggle with that. I am convinced that some enjoy fighting, fussing, fuming and causing all manner of mayhem in families, at work, on the roads, and between nations. I just hope and pray that people will tire of it all and turn to God for help in being the solution instead of the problem.
Wonderful comment Charlotte and I agree with everything you said. The fighting will always continue, between countries, in families, etc. Such is our human nature unfortunately. But what I don't get is why people don't get tired of it - as you say. Hate is a very tiring state to be in all the time. I spent a good deal of my life in that state and still have bouts of it from time to time. I guess people think it's easier to continue to hate than to forgive and learn to love. Our egos certainly tell us that.
Hi Rosemary. I'm sorry to hear about your son-in-law. I know how you feel. My ex-husband can't even be friends with me out of spite or hate or both. It comes to a point where you have to walk away and accept that they won't change, at this point at least. You did all that you could do by apologizing, and if the other person has no forgiveness in his heart, there is nothing else you can do other than physically let go of doing any more actions and just spiritually continue to pray for that person if you are so inclined. God will take over, as He already has, although it may take years to see the result of His action.
There is a Gospel story that always perplexed me - the one where the disciples tried and tried to exorcize the demons from a man but failed. They brought him to Jesus who completed the exorcism. The disciples said "how come we couldn't do it?" And Jesus told them that that demon could only come out through prayer and fasting. Why? I never understood that. But when I read your comment and thought also about my own situation with my ex-husband I finally understood it. The demons of hate and spite are very strong in many people and nothing physically we can do (arguing, talking, apologizing, etc) will EVER ever make them see the light. It is at that point we have to physically leave them and rely only on our prayers and fasting to God. I know it seems like we are giving up, but in our silent prayers, we are not leaving those people, even as they have decided to embrace hate/spite and leave us. Just thought I'd share that revelation, for what it's worth. I hope someday your son-in-law can leave his spite behind.
" I know it seems like we are giving up, but in our silent prayers, we are not leaving those people, even as they have decided to embrace hate/spite and leave us."
"Giving up" is exactly what JESUS CHRIST teaches ALL HIS FOLLOWERS.
1“Do not judge, or you will be judged. 2For with the same judgment you pronounce, you will be judged; and with the measure you use, it will be measured to you.
3Why do you look at the speck in your brother’s eye, but fail to notice the beam in your own eye? 4How can you say to your brother, ‘Let me take the speck out of your eye,’ while there is still a beam in your own eye? 5You hypocrite! First take the beam out of your own eye, and then you will see clearly to remove the speck from your brother’s eye. Matt 7, 1-5
" They both claim to be Christians." - GOD ALMIGHTY looks into every heart as only HE KNOWS what is really in EVERYONE'S HEART - as empty words even come out of THE SYNAGOGUE OF SATAN disciple's mouth. Not what goes into the mouth defiles man but that what comes out of it!
I sent my son in law information on giving babies the covid vax and I was discouraging this. (I am an RN retired) in May of 2022.
I sent this information to several people, my sister, my dad, and my other daughter and my other daughters mother in law that works for big pharma.
So my son in law hit reply all and sent me a very very insulting reply, very insulting. I emailed him back (individually) and told him that he was very unkind in making such statements, then my daughter composed a "reply all email" trying to add her disapproval and also added two paragraphs of very insulting and untrue reaally, points that were to approve their response.
I was shocked and really hurt. I said some very mean things to both of them only. Then, my son in law emailed me and stated that we were no longer part of their family (probalby mostly me but hubbs included) So that has been the situation here for 19 months. So, I guess I have been pretty bad too. I was brought up to never get nasty or argue with elders. I have taken care of my parents for the past 11 years and even though we disagreed on many things, I never argued with them
"Well, it is maybe complicated." - NO it is not, once you see it is very simple as I hope will be become clearer at the end of this comment.
It never ceases to astonish me/boggle my mind about how ALL GOD'S CREATIONS crave for THE SINCERITY OF GOD ALMIGHTY and at the same time THE HUMAN MIND (without being able to give a clear definition of it, despite "knowing" what I mean with it) as THE TOOL OF GOD ALMIGHTY stopping short of coming clear with itself - stop lying to itself about its place in ALL CREATION, and thereby refusing GOD ALMIGHTY, which I would call THE LIE!
All you are presenting in your comment is testimony to that. But first comes first.
In early 2020 many (based on the wickedness and scope of the attack) people knew something was wrong without truly knowing what it was and some (the braver one's not buying into the lie) even embracing it as a sort of "holidays from normality" trying to sail through it on their own terms. Based on the notion that it was just another false alarm. Ignoring the possibility of THE HEADQUARTERS OF THE SYNAGOGUE OF SATAN working overtime of getting their plan - of getting hold of GOD ALMIGHTY'S CREATION once and for all - carried out. With all the known actors as of today.
As time passed by it became clearer and clearer that the air becomes thinner and thinner and the margin between well being and catastrophe narrowed. And as things started to heat up THE MAJORITY lost its FAITH IN GOD ALMIGHTY - its head - if they ever had it in the first place. Fast forward into 2021/2022 it got really intense and those without FAITH lost the plot completely on either side of the issue you portray.
The fact that you responded to my comment is testimony that it is about more than - injection or no injection - but rather THE TRUTH or THE LIE. And only those who are able to see beyond the physical materialisation based on what is going on in each and everyone's head is going to be trapped in THE FLESH. What I am trying to illuminate is the fact that EVERYTHING that comes into THIS WORLD has first existed "somehow" in THE HUMAN MIND and being aware of that one cannot ignore the fact that LETTING GOD ALMIGHTY watch and take care of one's OWN MIND IS PARAMOUNT.
Back to your example - How come that your daughter has married a men that is treating his mother in law so "badly"? Asking such questions is paramount and at the same time humbling enough that there is NO OTHER SOLUTION than surrender to GOD ALMIGHTY in the most humble terms - no matter what EVER has happened or possibly will happen - as EVERYTHING IS IN GOD ALMIGHTY'S HANDS.
"The night" is the darkest just before sunrise - the same as JESUS CHRIST is the closest the "darker the night"!
"The fact that you responded to my comment is testimony that it is about more than - injection or no injection - but rather THE TRUTH or THE LIE."
Human beings have been in a spiritual war since their creation. It has always been a war between the Truth (Jesus) and the lie (satan). The last three years has been an intense battle where the lie won with the majority of people. Obviously, Truth will win the war in the end, but until then lies will deceive people and seed hate, destruction and spite. I don't think I could have made it through this last battle without the armor of Christ. As you say, rely on God only - give it all to Him. That's what I did when I lost my job because of the shot mandates, and my life didn't end. Everything turned out as it should. I'm learning slowly to stuff my ego aside and let God show me the way in everything I do.
And you're right - there is NO other solution than surrender to God. Without repentance by all of us, the hate, evil, destruction, wars, spite and awfulness continues unabated.

A helpful lesson is right in front of each one's eyes - for those able to see - THE GARDEN OF EDEN.... and no-one should take this lightly!
hate or just plain spiteful. Everyone is motivated to teach others a lesson or two.
My son in law has decided that hubbs and I are no longer family.
He treated me shitty, and I reacted poorly. It has been 15 months. I have apologised
way too many times

Interesting 'prayer fasting' anagrams to 'Frey grip Satan'. Frey is 'the Norse god of peace and fertility.'
Or another way, the truth will set you frey (sic)!
One needs the word 'fasting' to complete the action in the words.

Thank you for telling me this lovely gospel story.
