-
Israel chose to ignore intelligence from Egyptian officials about a major attack coming from Hamas.
-
Multiple former IDF soldiers & Israeli intelligence personnel have come forward online and said there’s a zero percent chance Israel was unaware of this attack beforehand or couldn’t have prevented it.
-
We just watched unsophisticated terrorists on hang gliders soar into one of the most heavily-defended & surveilled countries on the planet.
-
Within 48 hours of the attack, we’re now suddenly seeing enormous support for an American war with Iran and the genocide of the Palestinian people.
I’m witnessing American pastors and formerly level-headed influencers in our world completely lose their minds and call for genocide. It’s unsurprising, but insane to watch.
If the events of the past three years have taught me anything, it’s that when people get whipped into an emotional frenzy, critical thinking completely goes out the window.
People become highly suggestible and will rush to extremely dangerous conclusions without thinking about the consequences. I think this is what we’re all witnessing with this situation in Israel.
I’m reminded of Pearl Harbor and 9/11. In both scenarios, the American government received intelligence in advance of the attacks, but chose not to prevent the attacks. Why?
The American government was willing to sacrifice the lives of American citizens in order to advance its geopolitical goals.
Pearl Harbor gave the justification to enter WWII.
9/11 gave justification to invade the Middle East & drastically expand the American military industrial complex & our surveillance apparatus.
They were brutal & extremely traumatic events for the American public to witness. The emotional trauma caused people to get whipped into an emotional frenzy.
America wanted ONE THING in response to these attacks: The blood of our enemies. I see the same psyop playing out now. People are whipped into a frenzied bloodlust.
In their frenzied bloodlust, people are overlooking some SERIOUSLY important facts here, notably:
-
The fact that none of this adds up,
-
Innocent civilians are being threatened with genocide, and
-
Escalated violence in the Middle East and a war with Iran both risk the rest of the planet getting dragged into WWIII.
What happened in Israel this weekend was obviously gut-wrenching and awful to witness, but I do not trust Israel’s so-called “intelligence failure”, nor do I trust the snakes in Washington calling for war with Iran, & I sure as hell no longer trust any of the emotionally-frenzied influencers calling for explicit genocide of innocent civilians.
This was a defining moment in history, similar to Pearl Harbor, 9/11, COVID, the beginning of the Ukraine war, etc, and a lot of people just got played. Hard.
People responded by going full mask-off, exposing themselves as reckless & incapable of exercising sound judgment in moments of chaos and heightened emotion.
And we’re now at the brink of WWIII because of it. This is all worth noting.
There’s a high likelihood there will be more chaos throughout the rest of this decade. There will be more psychological operations.
There will be more moments in time in which cooler heads ought to prevail, but people will get whipped into an emotional frenzy instead.
Keep your wits about you, & be cautious in whom you allow yourself to be influenced by.
Recognize that governments & intelligence agencies spend enormous resources waging psychological operations on social media nonstop when stuff like this goes down.
Remember that when chaos is at its peak, history shows there is ALMOST ALWAYS a hidden agenda being played out, & that hidden agenda is ALWAYS designed to prey on our base emotions to facilitate a desired end-result.
Pray for world peace tonight.
Thanks. 🤙

Jesus says Scripture cannot be broken. The Holy Spirit leads His People into all the truth. That missing parts bs is mostly used by folk that never read the Bible. Check it out.
You trust The Council of Nicea?
There are missing parts.
You don’t trust the Council of Nicaea?
Absolutely not.
And why not?
Jesus says scriptural cannot be broken. The Holy Ghost leads into all the truth Connecting all precepts. It is called the Living Word because the Truth is revealed and experienced by Those that believe. Jesus is Lord not the Nicene Council. No one is bypassing Jesus. Nothing can stop what is coming
This scripture itself was in reference to the old testament, and used to logically dispel the Jews reasoning to stone him.
The new testament wasn't assembled till long after Jesus was gone. We still don't know for certain who many of the authors of the various books were. We include letters from Paul to the churches as God ordained gospel, when he never walked with Jesus, and was no different than any of us in the modern times receiving the spirit and then giving guidance. Those letters were meant specifically to guide those early churches and have no business being followed as the unbreakable and infallible words of God.
Why did Jesus never reference a book that was coming? Why did he not reference this new scripture that would be assembled and adhered to as if directly given from God himself? Why didn't he oversee the process of creating such scriptures if "the word" is so holy and important. Why did the catholics play such a large role in what books ended up being New Testament Canon? Why did they go about slaughtering the early gnostics and burning anything they deemed not canon or blasphemous?
Why are such important things lost in translation? Everyone places such high value on "the word", and the word is supposed to be so holy and above the errors of man. And part of this stems from John 1 and the scriptures stating in the beginning was the word. However, the more ancient Greek translation is logos. And logos has a much deeper meaning than word. Words imply what is written before us, and mistakenly people envision the scriptures always being there. But in reality logos also means reason and plan. It is also the thought and divine reasoning of God that gives order to all existence.
Also why for English speakers was our most sacred scriptures ordered to be translated and left in the name of a demonologist? King James was a demonologist and very likely used the help of Sir Francis Bacon to translate the KJV version. Both very prominent Free Masons. And it is in their version where the reduction of the more in depth concept of logos to word happens.
I believe in Jesus, I believe that a large percentage of what we read in the Bible is truth. But I don't believe Jesus ever intended us to be waiting for his New Testament book he never spoke of to drop. Nor do I view it as the infallible word of God. That is a trap in of itself because you can find many logical inconsistencies that aren't aligned within it.
I appreciate your questions and concerns. Let's address each of your claims and questions one by one.
Assembly of the New Testament: It's true that the New Testament books were written over several decades after the life of Jesus. However, the process of assembling the New Testament canon was a careful one. Early Christians recognized writings that were considered authoritative and inspired by God. The process of canonization took place over centuries, with criteria like apostolic authorship or close association with apostles and conformity to orthodox Christian doctrine being used. The New Testament books were widely accepted by the early Christian communities.
Authorship of New Testament Books: While there may be some debate about the authorship of a few New Testament books, the majority of them have traditionally been attributed to apostles or close associates of apostles. For instance, the letters of Paul are well-documented, and he claimed authorship in many of them.
Paul's Letters: Paul's letters to the early churches were intended to provide guidance and address specific issues within those communities. Over time, they were recognized as valuable teachings inspired by the Holy Spirit, which is why they are included in the New Testament.
Jesus and the New Testament: It's important to note that Jesus' primary focus was on proclaiming the Kingdom of God, fulfilling the Old Testament prophecies, and establishing a new covenant through His sacrifice. He didn't specifically reference the compilation of a New Testament because His ministry was centered on His own teachings and the fulfillment of the Old Testament Scriptures.
Canonization and the Catholic Church: The role of the Catholic Church in the canonization process is historically significant. The early Church councils, including the Councils of Hippo and Carthage, played a role in affirming the canon of the New Testament. However, it's essential to understand that the recognition of these books was based on their widespread acceptance by Christian communities.
Translation and King James Version: The translation of the Bible into English, including the King James Version (KJV), was a significant development. While King James I was involved in commissioning the KJV, it was carried out by a group of scholars who aimed to provide an accurate translation of the Bible into English. The choice of the term "word" in the KJV for "logos" is a translation choice but doesn't necessarily diminish the deeper theological concept of "logos."
Logos: You are correct that the Greek term "logos" has a broader meaning than just "word." It encompasses the divine reasoning and plan of God, as well as the ordering principle of the universe. This concept is reflected in John 1:1, where Jesus is referred to as the "Word" who was with God from the beginning.
Infallibility: The belief in the infallibility of the Bible is a matter of theological interpretation. Many Christians hold that the Bible is divinely inspired and contains truths necessary for salvation. However, interpretations may vary on specific passages, and not all Christians interpret the Bible in the same way.
You aptly ask:
In the Gospel of John, Jesus indeed promises the coming of the Holy Spirit, often referred to as the "Helper" or "Comforter." This promise is found in John 14:26 (NIV):
This promise of the Holy Spirit was given to the disciples to help them recall and understand the teachings of Jesus. It played a crucial role in their ability to accurately convey His message to others, including through the writing of the New Testament.
The idea is that the Holy Spirit guided the early Christians, including the apostles, in their understanding of Jesus' teachings and in recording them. This divine guidance and inspiration are seen as the basis for the authority of the New Testament writings. So, while Jesus may not have explicitly referenced a future book, He did promise the guidance of the Holy Spirit to ensure that His teachings were accurately transmitted to future generations.
Hope this helps.
So you are tripping on the western theodicy stuff. What this fails to take into account is God’s great respect for our free will. He lets us screw things up because if He didn’t, we wouldn’t actually be free and He would be this divine helicopter parent operating our limbs for us.
Orthodox Christians believe the same creed we have confessed from the beginning of Christianity, and it follows from that that the Roman Church ceased to be a Church when it split off from the rest of the Churches in the world around 1054. The splits after that did not heal that schism. So Orthodox Christians such as myself would say that another part of the answer to your questions is that these things are happening outside the Church.
One must define free will before resolving theodicy.
Autonomous, libertarian free will with equal power to choose any single option out of any availability of options, no matter the external or internal conditions?
Or is the will free in that it is uncoerced by an immediate external force, yet still bound to the highest preferentials of the inner nature of the one exercising their will?
Whatever I choose to do, God allows me to do. My Orthodox Christian wife with a philosophy background recommends Crime and Punishment on this.
I do. HOLY SPIRIT inspired the scripts. Emanuel cannot lie. Jesus name is the WORD OF GOD. The Sword of the SPIRIT Is THE Word of GOD. The scripts are the GATEWAY and manual for His warriors to occupy this realm until His return Simple. Jesus says Scripture cannot be broken I'm good and blessed with that. Scripts tend to be written. Jesus read from a scroll Himself. GOD MADE THE BRAIN. DO you think that He wouldn't know how to communicate to It? Amazing how illogical folk become when it Comes to the things of God. God is the source of all wisdom. Reading is fundamental
