Who to trust?
?️ DISCUSSION ?
I have a business. I have a family. I really want to disconnect from politics yet trust someone to tell me what to do politically. Is that even possible? I just can't continue checking so many sources trying to figure out what is what.
So who do you trust?
Loyalty is a rare quality. Just ask Donald Trump. Few people are there whenever you call on them and will tell you the truth even when it is hard to hear.
We need to realize that there are people we can trust, but it always ends up going through God. Find a Catholic/Christian/ group near you and join. It takes time, im not happy with my current Parish but I don't have too many other options where I am, and at least I can practice the Sacraments. My advice is be blunt about it. If you're meeting someone new let them know. I love God, my country, and these are my convictions. Its hard but that weeds out so much unnecessary time and emotions. Either they are on board or you can move on. Good luck and God Bless.
We and God are always here for you.
Ask this other guy bashing Sacraments and the Mother of the Lord - do you want him to bad mouth your mama?- to explain a 500 year old tilma in Guadeloupe. Or Fatima or Lourdes or the thousands of other Saints the first 1500 years before division. I bet he likes to just skim over John 6 as well. And "confess his sins directly to God"
Carholic church is Thyatira, prophetically:
“To the angel of the church in Thyatira write: These are the words of the Son of God, whose eyes are like blazing fire and whose feet are like burnished bronze. I know your deeds, your love and faith, your service and perseverance, and that you are now doing more than you did at first. Nevertheless, I have this against you: You tolerate that woman Jezebel, who calls herself a prophet. By her teaching she misleads my servants into sexual immorality and the eating of food sacrificed to idols. I have given her time to repent of her immorality, but she is unwilling. So I will cast her on a bed of suffering, and I will make those who commit adultery with her suffer intensely, unless they repent of her ways. I will strike her children dead. Then all the churches will know that I am he who searches hearts and minds, and I will repay each of you according to your deeds. Now I say to the rest of you in Thyatira, to you who do not hold to her teaching and have not learned Satan’s so-called deep secrets, ‘I will not impose any other burden on you, except to hold on to what you have until I come.’ Revelation 2:18-25 NIV

He replied, “Isaiah was right when he prophesied about you hypocrites; as it is written: “ ‘These people honor me with their lips, but their hearts are far from me. They worship me in vain; their teachings are merely human rules.’ You have let go of the commands of God and are holding on to human traditions.” Mark 7:6-8 NIV

Sacraments is legalism, Jesus hates legalism. Mary is NOT to be prayed to. Purgatory is a complete lie with zero backing of Scripture. The Pope is the false prophet of the book of Revelation. Catholicism is NOT a Jesus and grace heavy path. It is hard to be Catholic and actually worship Jesus. Few Catholics will make the Harpazo (the Rapture).
The caveat, you need to know how to live with yourself.
Learn that first, then learn how to assess life, then you will find your equilibrium.
Accept all, trust few, find yourself, accept those who understand you as you are, not as you are for them to see.
Cut them out from your inner circle sure. However, engage and be polite especially those with opposing viewpoints. Cuz you can bet your bottom dollar they ain’t getting feedback from their friends. One of my friends is completely opposite of me. He thinks Trump is the devil reincarnated. Regardless it doesn’t affect our friendship. Just have heated debates that’s all. Don’t shun your political opponents. Engage if at all possible.
Man......this hits the nail square on the head. It applies, exactly, to my life in this moment as well. I seem to be the single person in my relatively large friend group who has done the Q research for myself and, as a result, gone down some really dark rabbit holes because of it. Now the contrast in opinion and ideals between myself and literally all of them hasn’t ever been larger.
I use my brain, common sense, and very healthy dose of skepticism when considering what is truth and reality. They use cable news and NPR.
And because I have a differing opinion, and supported our POTUS, I am viewed by them as a crazed ultra-mecha-nationalist and maybe worse if you asked them directly and kept me out of the loop.
I have disconnected from them as of late, which sucks because I’ve known them and been friends with them for the last 30 years.
And it’s amazing to me because they are all intelligent people, so what’s happened to them is an excellent example of the power of persuasion and the intentional media conditioning that’s happening everywhere.
And then recently I turned back into my faith and spirituality, and reconnected with God. I turned back into my marriage (which has been rocky for a while because my selfishness and ego had led me down an extremely unhealthy path) and things between us are amazingly good. I started looking inward, and have found otherwise unusual serenity and have embraced all of it.
I was watching a video earlier today and they made the comment that TV is really "Tell-a-vision." The question is, whose vision?
If you want to go down a rabbit hole, go see who the original top dogs of the early MSM were. If memory serves, they were mostly from the intelligence community of the time.
The documentary is called Out of Shadows and covers a good bit of the canals activities thru the hollywood pedo angle from a couple insiders who started poking around.
My friend has two PhD’s and I didn’t even finish high school. People are so invested into their global climate / warming beliefs anyone who challenges that narrative is a false prophet who must be dealt with.
Logical thinking yes but why can’t they look beyond logical thinking and assume their logical conclusions were made based on some assumptions of the way the economy and political structure work. If the latter two are completely bogus then wouldn’t that also shatter their logical conclusions they’ve made over their lifetime?
I’m gonna try a new tactic. Gonna pretend to agree with what they say and see how ridiculous we can go down fictional land. Not sure what else to try.
Glad your marriage is improving. Life is a trip. No drugs required.
I am turning to God. 1st time in my life-44
