Truth is often harsh.
^ Exactly this.
Be thankful that God spoke to you in whatever way to prevent you from taking the shot.
But understand He didn't do that for YOU!
He did it so YOU can be used to reach OTHERS and bring them to HIM.
Be thankful - and use it.
BTW - I get that it is very easy to be angry in this - I have dealt with that and I still deal with that - thankfully to a lesser degree now.
But I still get pissed when my family members, whom I want to look to with respect, don't care to research anything for themselves - or after having hours of discussion with me and my wife - hearing all of the data that we point them towards, still, in that moment of fear - run to the "trusted authorities" despite everything they seemed to be finally understanding...
I get it.
But that does not mean you just throw them in the garbage and go admire yourself in the mirror.
God gives some people insight, discernment, spiritual awareness, etc. for different times. You got it for this time for this reason - and that is not to hold it to yourself and feel special about it.
Be thankful - and use it to reach others. Otherwise, you are burying your resources (Talents) in the ground. And we know how the master responded to that servant in the Bible...
Matthew 25
14 "Similarly, it is like a man going on a trip, who called his servants and turned his money over to them.
15 To one man he gave five talents, to another two, and to another one, based on their ability. Then he went on his trip.
16 "The one who received five talents went out at once and invested them and earned five more.
17 In the same way, the one who had two talents earned two more.
18 But the one who received one talent went off, dug a hole in the ground, and buried his master's money.
19 "After a long time, the master of those servants returned and settled accounts with them.
20 The one who had received five talents came up and brought five more talents. "Master,' he said, "you gave me five talents. See, I've earned five more talents.'
21 "His master told him, "Well done, good and trustworthy servant! Since you've been trustworthy with a small amount, I'll put you in charge of a large amount. Come and share your master's joy!'
22 "The one with two talents also came forward and said, "Master, you gave me two talents. See, I've earned two more talents.
23 "His master told him, "Well done, good and trustworthy servant! Since you've been trustworthy with a small amount, I'll put you in charge of a large amount. Come and share your master's joy!'
*24 "Then the one who had received one talent came forward and said, "Master, I knew that you were a hard man, harvesting where you haven't planted and gathering where you haven't scattered any seed.
25 Since I was afraid, I went off and hid your talent in the ground. Here, take what's yours!'
26 "His master answered him, "You evil and lazy servant! So you knew that I harvested where I haven't planted and gathered where I haven't scattered any seed?*
27 Then you should've invested my money with the bankers. When I returned, I would've received my money back with interest.'
28 Then the master said, "Take the talent from him and give it to the man who has the ten talents,
29 because to everyone who has something, more will be given, and he'll have more than enough. But from the person who has nothing, even what he has will be taken away from him.
30 Throw this useless servant into the darkness outside! In that place there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.'"
I would expect no less from a Paladin. Little lacking on the "angry", though.
LOL - I save my wings until the right time.
I don't look down on others who think differently than I do and who make choices I'd never make. But I do have healthy boundaries, which prevent me from getting bogged down in their drama and conflict, which I want nothing to do with.
Came here to say this, but you’ve already said it for me. Thank you. I have several family members and friends, who are vaccinated, I love them just as much as I did before. Christ tells us to love one another. This is the problem with the left and the right, they want to dig their heels in and command us, choose a side and cost division. I refuse to be a part of the uniparty.
Agree, almost everyone in my family got jabbed, I love them and they love me. I've tried to make them think twice before taking it but unfortunately they told me they "trust the science". The good thing is almost none took the booster after realising they all had covid after 2 jabs and I was and still am healthy, never got covid. Nobody wants to talk about jabs in my family anymore, I can see they are not happy for taking it, I can feel their pain. How can I now turn my back to my own family? Tell them I have nothing to do with you? This isn't the way to be, I am sorry, I disagree with this post, quite strongly.
Also, there's shedding, apparently, so the OP's argument is not valid.
As Christians we should believe that all can be forgiven through the blood of Christ. But they must be repentant and see the error of their ways. That is what we are here for. Once they realize their grave mistake, we lead them to Truth. God is merciful and understands our weaknesses. It is why He gave us the greatest gift in His Son Jesus.
80%? Where do you get that number? Gaslighting bullshit.
Look it up where? CDC? FDA? CNN? Lol look it up.
