Your friends and family have ALWAYS been what they are now. But, for the sake of 'friendship' and familial ideals we are very good at glossing and avoiding.
I have two siblings that applauded the riots and orders for police to stand down. They had some kind of vague notion that this was justice, some how, for those with historic grievences. I pointed out that the rioters were destroying businesses and jobs of people who had nothing to do with anything other than simply trying to exist. They were unmoved.
They live in very nice homes in very nice neighborhoods and would be absolutely horrified if rioters came down their streets and the cops did nothing. But it was justice for it to happen to other people.
I have family member who are corrupt and evil. It's that simply. They call good evil and evil, good. They are lost, in every sense of the word. And, they love it that way. They are willingly lost. Slaves to darkness.
Multiple times Q has mentioned a future reunification after the reveal. For this reason I try not to burn bridges. But, sometimes you have to torch that sucker.
If this goes too much further, reproachment will be impossible. We might already be there. Hard to know. Some will burn down the world before they admit they got fooled.
The Bush family fooled me. When I discovered that I admitted it. Admitting you got fooled by world class criminals won't kill you. It might even save you.
“But this is what I commanded them, saying, ‘Obey My voice, and I will be your God, and you shall be My people. And walk in all the ways that I have commanded you, that it may be well with you.’” Jeremiah 7:23 NKJV
“So this is what the Lord says to his people: “You love to wander far from me and do not restrain yourselves. Therefore, I will no longer accept you as my people. Now I will remember all your wickedness and will punish you for your sins.” Jeremiah 14:10 NLT
In the book of Jonah The people of Nianevah believed the words of God and they whole heartily responded in 3:5-9 God recanted and didn’t aflict them in verse 10. “Who can tell if God will turn and relent, and turn away from His fierce anger, so that we may not perish? Then God saw their works, that they turned from their evil way; and God relented from the disaster that He had said He would bring upon them, and He did not do it.” Jonah 3:9-10 NKJV
If the nation repent and turns to God, then there can be mercy. God mercy and patience, though beyond all earthly measure are not without end.
“The priests did not say, ‘Where is the Lord?’ Those who handle the law did not know me; the shepherds transgressed against me; the prophets prophesied by Baal and went after things that do not profit. for my people have committed two evils: they have forsaken me, the fountain of living waters, and hewed out cisterns for themselves, broken cisterns that can hold no water. Have you not brought this upon yourself by forsaking the Lord your God, when he led you in the way? Your evil will chastise you, and your apostasy will reprove you. Know and see that it is evil and bitter for you to forsake the Lord your God; the fear of me is not in you, declares the Lord God of hosts. How can you say, ‘I am not unclean, I have not gone after the Baals’? Look at your way in the valley; know what you have done— a restless young camel running here and there, you say, ‘I am innocent; surely his anger has turned from me.’ Behold, I will bring you to judgment for saying, ‘I have not sinned.’” Jeremiah 2:8, 13, 17, 19, 23, 35 ESV
