Man’s religion may promote dogmatic thinking, the Lord certainly doesn’t. Interestingly enough, most of the times God is chastising individuals or nations in Scripture, He is blasting them for NOT thinking clearly and using the wisdom and logic he gave them. Christ is literally the ‘logos’ after all.

It’s the other way around- Satan changes the meaning of the word ‘meek’ to mean what it means today. He CAN mess with Bible translations, but it’s quite obvious when he does (research Westcott-Hort, Codex Sinaiticus Vaticanus straight scheme from the devil.) Chuck Missler is a great resource on this

Yeah that’s about what I expected. We are blessed to have zero lockdown restrictions here in New Zealand. For now. Our government is very leftist and casually authoritarian so I can see it going south very quickly if we have another wave. I would like to think our cops are more your rural boy types (at least where I live) so I don’t know how they would act if given undue power since we don’t have a constitution to refer back to.

You are mistaken friend. God speaks every language and has the ability to ensure His Words are accurately translated into any language for His children to read and understand.

Every child of God is a priest by the way-

“But ye are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, an holy nation, a peculiar people; that ye should shew forth the praises of him who hath called you out of darkness into his marvellous light:” ‭‭1 Peter‬ ‭2:9‬

Jesus is the Word. The most important thing is to have Him (and He, you) and His Spirit to understand the Bible anyway. This invitation is available to little children and ‘the simple’. These do not have the ability to learn another language, and yet the Lord has made a way for them to receive His pure Words through accurate translations in their native tongue.

I’m not talking about NIV or ESV or any of these modern muddled Bibles based on Alexandrian or Catholic texts, but the TR only.

I replied to your other comment before you deleted it. Heavily disagree that the only ‘true text’ is the Greek. That would mean that only native Greek speakers ever get to read the pure Words of God, and that simply does not agree with Scripture or the nature of God as I know Him. Grace and peace to you brother

That’s really awesome dude!! Must be such a blessing to read the New Testament in the Koine. But for native English speakers, the Lord doesn’t want to fool them.

Do you believe He preserves His Words for His children to read in any generation, no matter the culture or language?

“The words of the Lord are pure words: as silver tried in a furnace of earth, purified seven times. Thou shalt keep them, O Lord, thou shalt preserve them from this generation for ever.” ‭‭Psalms‬ ‭12:6-7‬

He provided an accurate, trustworthy translation in the King James for English speaking people. He doesn’t put up unnecessary barriers to Himself and does not require me to learn fluent Koine Greek. I trust and rely on His pure Words in the KJ every single day and it is amazing!

The ‘true translation’ is the KJV.

The problem is that there has been a deliberate attenpt to slowly alter the meaning of words over time (as well as natural language evolution).

Read KJ with a humble heart open to teaching, and prayer for the Spirit to show you what He meant, and you will never go wrong.

“My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me: And I give unto them eternal life; and they shall never perish, neither shall any man pluck them out of my hand. My Father, which gave them me, is greater than all; and no man is able to pluck them out of my Father's hand. I and my Father are one.” ‭‭John‬ ‭10:27-30‬ ‭

No one becomes ‘enlightened’ but through the revelation of Jesus Christ by the Holy Spirit.

Definitely, but your flesh is what the soul works through to interact with the physical world. Just like abusing a recreational drug will make it harder to even think about or approach God, you can put up chemical barriers to belief and faith in Christ. Of course He can smash through all that, but we are much better off making the Way as clear as possible.

Definitely a fair compromise. Unfortunately it’s almost impossible to engineer a new genuine foundation like that.

I check this site everyday as part of my morning routine now. It’s not even about ‘the date’ anymore, it has become a genuine grassroots conservative/nationalist movement focussed on transparency, justice, and human rights. Not to mention we generally glorify God. Even if nothing Q predicted comes true over the next few months, why would you want to abandon a cool place to freely discuss politics AND have spicy memes and camaraderie?

Thanks for that awesome response, that definitely puts that theory to bed for me! Good stuff

Devil’s advocate: could the Biden team have been afraid that Trump would pull something dramatic (I.e get him killed) coming in on a military aircraft, and so went with a private jet where he could control the hiring of the crew?

No worries! That teaching that I linked you literally changed my life. Highly recommend watching the whole series.

Douay Rheims has a lot of issues with it as well, see here: https://youtu.be/Rqw2doe-AJo

Stick with KJV, it will never steer you wrong ?

Another resource on the biblical gospel that also had a profound impact on me:

The phrase ‘repent of your sins’ is never found in Scripture. Rather, Jesus tells us to repent (turn toward God) and trust in Him.
