Whether or not Q is real, whether or not the military will save us, it cannot change your actions today. You have control over what you control, and no control over what you cannot control. You will be held to account to God for how you decide to act within the realms where you have power to act. Thus, you must focus exclusively on what you can do and should do, and how best to execute on it.
At the top of the priority list should always be your devotion to God. God demands we worship him and him alone. This means you must study out who God is and how to properly worship him. This is not for the faint of heart -- even studying and practicing for a lifetime is not enough to understand what this means. Every thought must be directed to him. Every prayer to him. Every action to him. Every offering to him.
From here, all things branch out. The Two Great Commandments, available both in the Old and New Testaments, is to "Love God" and "Love your neighbor". How to love God? With all your heart, might, mind and strength. How to love your neighbor? As yourself. What does love mean? We in modern society think of love as a feeling, but it is an action, and act, something you do and not feel.
The Ten Commandments branch from these, and cover the most basic elements of proper actions. It is clear from these commandments that God values honesty, fidelity in marriage, family life, and property ownership. Of course, we can go through the Old and New Testaments and find multiple explicit commandments or punishments for disobedience. Again, a lifetime of study is not enough time to learn how to act rightly before God.
Let's bring this home to our modern times and our modern understanding.
- Get married, stay married, and practice sexual activity only in marriage. Any extra-marital sexual act is forbidden. That means no porn, no adultery, no pre-marital sex. No divorce! But on a higher level, this is a devotion to family life. No greater happiness exists than fulfilling your duty in your family. And the reverse, No greater sadness exists than failing your duty in your family. Bear lots of children, more than you can handle. No one ever said, "I wish I didn't have so many kids!" Spend all of your efforts teaching and raising your kids. No physical treasure compares to well-raised kids.
- Get rich. This isn't optional. How do you get rich? Write a budget. Spend less than you earn. Earn more. Build an emergency fund. Get out of debt. Acquire investments assets -- real estate being a major one. Become truly self-sufficient with a garden and animals you raise and eat. Dave Ramsay has a lot of advice on how to get rich and how to behave as a rich person.
- Get educated. The idea that the purpose of education is to learn "practical skills" is absurd. Real education is about developing the proper and right character and attributes. Real education starts with the Bible and a whole lot of time praying and seeking truth. Of course you are going to incorporate other methods and materials.
- Get strong. "Physical strength is the most important thing in life" as Rippetoe says. It doesn't matter what you have if you are physically incompetent and require a wheelchair or medicine just to cope with life. People bound to wheelchairs and who require medicine just to live know what a great gift it is to have a body that works -- so keep your body in the best physical condition you can get it!
When we have enough people living rightly, with strong families, personal and familial real wealth, and a true and real education, physically fit, then we can talk about become self-governing. Until that point, however, we are far to weak in one way or the other to matter, and easily manipulated or controlled.
The first goal is to learn to govern yourself, then to govern your family, then to govern your community and finally your nation. If you cannot govern yourself, you cannot govern your family. And so on.
Beautiful post.
....regarding point 1. I'd love to get married....can't find m/any redpilled grown up men on dating sites or in the wild.
Even "conservatives" usually means republican/RINOS or not reaalllyy redpilled.
Too many Libtards. And being brown...most think I am a dem?
If it weren't for a series of miracles, I wouldn't be married either.
All I can say is pray a lot, and live your life the way you know you should, and let God do his thing while you focus on doing yours.
?
It’s true - God works miracles. I’m happily married for 12+ years. In retrospect I see finding “the one” much like marketing.
You need qualified traffic.
You need to be in the right room.
Where are “your people” now? Then go there. <3
Stayhumanme, You sound like a beautiful person. I have faith youll find the right person. Myself i am in a relationship with a Dem... Maybe it’s wrong to talk about it here but I need to get out. All I keep doing is trying to red pill him and all he keeps doing Is trying to blue pill me, or worse, have me believe the lies about the right! It’s as frustrating as it sounds, but worse, because his kids are virtual, even though we live in Florida, a mini land of the free. I need me a conservative!
I smell a match!
Jesus covered your sins. Don't believe Satan's voice telling you you're horrible! Absolutely not! What an awful accusation he's hurling at you. Laugh at his pathetic attempt to tear you down.
Singleness is also a blessing and Paul actually urges many people to remain single and serve God singularly because marriage (while also a beautiful blessing) splits your focus.
I am married and very fortunate to have an incredible marriage and a very loving husband. But marriage to the wrong person would be a nightmare. And I know many people in marriages like this. No marriage is perfect, but being on the same page makes things soooo much easier. So it is worth it to wait for the right man and in the meantime, pray and serve the Lord and take advantage of being single and being able to focus on Him.
If it’s any consolation, it’s comments like this that still give me hope. It lets me know there are still based and patriotic women in this world. I wish you the very best. Don’t give up and I won’t either. God bless ya miss.
I wish I could have stayed married, but sadly my ex put me in a battered womens shelter more than once. I had to make an escape when I had a baby and he got worse and threatened her life too. He was in Jail, but only for a few months. Now I live alone with her and it's been this way for many years.
Stay safe fren!
I hear you. I was lucky to find a wonderful man who redpilled me 15 years ago. Sadly I lost him in 2016. Finally tried dating again before the covi bs, but was appalled at the lack of kindness, decency and morals. And the total ignorance. How can people be so blind? But they are.
After the big reveal I hope we start a patriot dating group or something.
Good luck to you, sister!
I'm the same way! Being a conservative has opened my eyes to the fact that things aren't "hopeless"; but living in a majorly-liberal area, my prospects feel slim. I just keep praying that the Lord will grace me with a woman that complements my life, and doesn't become the focus of it. Honoring and valuing my presence in her life just as much as I would reciprocate the same. I give what I get.
All will come in due time. I'm single and live in a very blue area. Not really racing the clock or anything but everyone my age is basically married and has kids.
Best advice ever given to me was -- let him find you.
As a woman I can say whan you stop looking you will find the one. God will put him in your path when you least expect it. I have been married twenty years and God sent me my husband when I had sworn off men after several disastrous relationships. Your time and your one will come.
Take it easy. Work on yourself and for the love of God get to know who you are dating!
God loves a challenge. Since the odds are against you, it will just mean more glory to him when he gives you your soulmate.
my gf suffers daily from the same brown assumption syndrome
it truly is sad that the loudest proponents of color blindness are the greatest practitioners of color assumption
It's just as hard to find red pilled women on dating sites. I've dated "brown" people most of my life so I have seen how they always assume you are Dem.
I used to be a RINO...find a smart man. You can't fix stupid as they say. But you can fix ignorant.
Im a red pilled male with sisters, but I gave up online dating after 7+ years
I can relate to you here, except I’m a Caucasian female. All the men I’ve dated have eventually betrayed me and I’m at the point where I don’t think marriage will even be an option for me, my trust is so broken. Also, like you said, too many socialists and democrats around..
