I laughed so hard at this I was coughing and choking and my eyes started watering! A self-congratulatory 'ticker tape parade' image comes into my mind and what I see in the mind's eye is so uproarious I shall not deign to describe it. These guys are a meme parade. > Oh, how very little things change!  2000 years and nothing new. It is like I have said before. After the judgment seat of Christ, all who were found fearful and unbelieving were already cast into the lake of fire and brimstone with the beast (Roman world order) and the false prophet (Church) for an age of ages of testing. And now here we are. And it is written that the devil would deceive the whole world--not just some people--but all of us. And here we are, witnessing those still mired in the lies of the past. For 2000 years we have been baffled with bullshit believing that the Church had something to do with Jesus. Actually the Church was Rome's response to try undoing the work of Jesus. Since they could not exterminate every single believer and burn every single text, they went on a mission to corrupt our understanding of it all. Then along came the digital equivalent of Gutenberg's press, and they are trying to drown out the signal with noise. > The more I read what this man, James, and others, write, the more > deluded I see they are!  It actually beggars belief! It is maddening and grotesque how proud these dolts are. These poor souls pontificate at those who know the Father and have run to meet him. These self-appointed super saviors talk down to true believers as if we need their superior rationale drilled into our heads. -- Nightbulb https://blog.nightbulb.net Flip the night switch.
