Acts 11:19-21
“Those who had been dispersed by the persecution following upon the death of Stephen went through the country as far as Phoenicia and Cyprus and Antioch, but they spoke the word to no one except to Jews. But some of them, men from Cyprus and Cyrene, came to Antioch and spoke to the Greeks too and told them the good news of the Lord Jesus. The Lord’s hand was with them; and a great number believed and turned to the Lord.”
In restrained sentences these few words tell of one of the greatest events in history…Christianity is finally launched on its world-wide mission.
Here we have a truly amazing thing. The Church has taken the most epoch-making of all steps; and we do not even know the names of the people who took that step. All we know is that they came from Cyprus and Cyrene. They go down to history as nameless pioneers of Christ. It has always been one of the tragedies of the Church that men have wished to be noticed and named when they did something worthwhile. What the Church has always needed, perhaps more than anything else, is people who never care who gains the credit for it so long as the work gets done. These men may not have written their names in men’s books of history; but they have written them forever in God’s Book of Life.
--William Barclay, “The Acts of the Apostles”
As anons we, too, are taking epoch-making steps to awaken the world. Like these earlier Biblical anons, we too, will go down to history as nameless. But what the world needs now, more than anything else, is people – men and women – who will not care who will gain the credit for it so long as the work gets done.
Our names will never be written in history books, but rest assured, they will be forever written in God’s Book of Life.

I needed this today, LoneWulf. Been feeling pretty lonely lately. Nobody wants to hear what I believe is happening. The hardest part is friends and family who paste on a smile with that glazed look in their eyes - many here know "the look" - and say something along the lines of, "Let's see what happens."
I know it's a brush-off. But I can't stop. I believe God has given me discernment, and if it came from Him, then I trust it.
God bless you and I empathize 100%.
me, too, fren. Like I'm CARAZY
👍🙏🙂
Hang in there, fren. You're never alone as long as we're here. This is our little pond where we can come together and recharge. I, too, know what it's like to be surrounded by normies that have no idea what is really going on. The more you try to explain it, the more crazy you sound to them. That's ok, though. Like Q says, you can't tell them, you have to show them. But once they are shown, they will remember your words and come to you for further information. Our time hasn't quite come yet. For now, our job is to learn, to dig, and to ferret out the truth in order to be ready for those questions that will surely be asked of us one day soon.
Yes, we support each other here and our family, friends and strangers who don't understand what's really happening but, will some day need us.
Wonderful post u/LoneWulf with a powerful essay by William Barclay that touched me deeply.
I know we are here for a reason.
I believe we are called to be here.
We don't want to be recognized.
We want God's Will to be done, here on Earth as in Heaven.
Thank you, fren. ♥️♥️♥️
Takes too many brain cells to think...even my smarter friends in terms of world events are smarter because they choose better talking heads than the left.....it is not like they ever analyze or research beyond "do I agree or disagree with talking head"
They still dont get that they are controlled opposition and that info is being withheld, Some of the most obvious things to us are like one of those 100 sided Rubiks cubes to them....soooooo damn frustrating at times.....
