I wrote an article in 2015 concerning Matthew 5:43-48. These verses are often quoted to show love to everyone. Words have meaning and so do translations. We find ourselves in times of war where our enemies are both foreign and domestic. Our domestic enemies now control the government after usurping several elections.

What are their goals? They want to control every aspect of our lives: freedom, education, religion, health (death) care and lawfare. Let me make this simple: they want to replace God with government. They are the enemy and they are not to be loved; they are to be fought as all evil needs to be fought.

If your enemy is against God, they are not to be loved. Consider the following pin from Planned Parenthood:

This pin was worn by some Democrat Congressmen at the 2023 State of the Union address. What kind of evil would show love for destroying innocent unborn lives? These are not our neighbors who have temporarily gone astray from the village and will return to be a good neighbor in the future. They do not deserve our love or support.

We are in a civil war in this country. Once side is serious and is attacking everything and everybody based on whatever they decide. The other side is practicing insanity by doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results (voting). What happens when our side realizes that they want us dead? What happens when we realize they want our children enslaved, sterilized and indoctrinated?

What happens when we realize that we are losing because we allow them to divide us?

In a well written article concerning the Trinity, the comments were divided between being respectful, antagonistic and divisive. I was waiting for someone to point out that the concept of the Trinity was debated by our founding fathers:

Faith of the Founders #8: Jefferson, the Trinity, Faith, and the Occult

In a letter to his fellow revolutionary and former President, John Adams, dated August 22, 1813, Thomas Jefferson made clear that he rejected the Trinity, and the Christian concept of Faith, and thereby the very idea of revelation itself.

The historical background of Jefferson’s letter is the Council of Nicaea in AD 325, which, in laymen’s terms, defined that Jesus Christ was the Son of God from all eternity. This was done to refute a new heresy called Arianism, named after the Egyptian priest, Arius, who taught that Jesus Christ was not the Son from all eternity, but had been endowed with “divinity” at a point after his creation. In other words, he had become the Son of God. He was not the Son of God by nature. Arius’ teaching thus contradicted the Christian belief in the Trinity—that there is one God in three Persons from all eternity: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.

While I encourage you to read the entire letter, here is the portion to which the above referenced:

I remember to have heard Dr. Priestley say that if all England would candidly examine themselves, & confess, they would find that Unitarianism was really the religion of all: and I observe a bill is now depending in parliament for the relief of Anti-Trinitarians. it is too late in the day for men of sincerity to pretend they believe in the Platonic mysticisms that three are one, & one is three; & yet the one is not three, and the three are not one: to divide mankind by a single letter into ὁμοουςιans, and ὁμοιουςιans. but this constitutes the craft, the power and the profit of the priests. sweep away their gossamer fabrics of factitious religion, and they would catch no more flies. we should all then, like the quakers, live without an order of priests, moralise for ourselves, follow the oracle of conscience, and say nothing about what no man can understand, nor therefore believe; for I suppose belief to be the assent of the mind to an intelligible proposition.

It is easy to pick verses from the Bible to provide “evidence” of your viewpoint. I wonder how many people actually read Malachi’s article and did more research on the Trinity? How many people thought about why asking a question would have the consequences that resulted in the termination of his ordination?

Here is another article to consider:

Ten Ways the Bible Disproves the Trinity

1. God does not change.

A key element of the Trinity is the incarnation. This teaches that the second person of the Trinity, God the Son, took on human flesh in the bodily form of Jesus. Thus when Mary gave birth to Jesus, God entered into the creation as a human being:

However such beliefs contradict what the Bible teaches about God’s nature:

Your throne is established from of old; you are from everlasting. [Psalm 93:2]

Every good and perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of the heavenly lights, who does not change like shifting shadows. [James 1:17]

The Bible defines God’s nature as eternal and unchanging; indeed, God cannot change, because He transcends time. So the claim that God became flesh is a contradiction.

Trinitarians try to get around this problem by arguing that when God became man, a human nature was merely added to God’s existing divine nature. Since the two natures did not mix, the divine nature did not change at all and so God remained the same.

Can this be considered valid reasoning? Well, if God ‘added’ a new nature to Himself, then that is a change in state. Was God always a man? He was not. Did God become a man? According to Trinitarians, he did. So to claim that God did not change is nothing more than philosophical wordplay.

To illustrate this, let’s take the example of a man called John. Consider a situation where God grants John a divine nature. Even if John’s original nature, humanity, remains unchanged and separate from his divinity, would you ever conclude that John has not changed at all?

Would any reasonable person argue, “well, John hasn’t really changed in nature, his original finite human nature is only being complemented by an additional infinite nature”. To claim that John, going from mere mortal to master of the universe, has undergone no change would be absurd.

Clearly, John has changed from one state, not being God, to another, being God. This mirrors the Trinitarian claim that God became flesh, which also entails a change from one state, not being human, to another, being human. The end result for Jesus and John is the same; they’ve both become God-men.

We must conclude that the doctrine of the Trinity involves a change in the nature of God. This directly contradicts the Bible’s statements that God is eternal and unchanging.

This article’s purpose is to show that the Trinity is a controversial subject. So controversial that many people will not discuss or debate it. What do I believe? Or I should say what I know:

The topic of the Trinity is a good example of how Men of God should get together and discuss the Bible. In that discussion, I would ask why churches have a difficult time defining the Holy Spirit. Most churches today concentrate on the New Testament and Jesus. I believe the entire Bible is the Word of God. I believe the Lord wants us to debate the Word so that we can temper and refine our faith. I believe that task cannot be completed in a lifetime: the point is to always question, debate and grow spiritually.

I have a confession to make, of sorts. I was raised Presbyterian, became a fundamentalist Baptist, sold my business at age 45 and went back to school to get a degree in Bible and history. I graduated with honors and pastored for three years. They taught me tabula rasa (blank slate) at Bible college. The idea is to set aside all one has been taught and not to read that into Scripture, but, rather, to allow Scripture to speak. After doing that, studying church history (how the opponents of the ‘church’ were killed and their literature burned, crusades into Northern Europe, etc.), seeing the syncretism of adopting pagan holidays and practices to further expand the influence of the ‘church’, and experiencing how any questioning of doctrine is answered with anger and name calling … well, I became disillusioned.

While still a pastor, I called the head elder of our denomination and asked him to help me find the Trinity in the Bible. I recalled that my professor at college had difficulty with this. His response was to say that if I doubted the Trinity, then I must doubt the divinity of Christ. I replied that Jesus never claimed to be God (quite the opposite Luke 18:18-19), always deferred to the Father, and was ‘begotten’, indicating that he had a beginning. I was told I would need to meet with the entire board of elders, which I welcomed. A week later I received a letter terminating my ordination. No answer to my question. No debate. I then went ten years unchurched.

After moving to the Ozarks, we joined a small local church. The pastor is aware that I reject all the doctrine while still accepting and trying to live by the teachings of Jesus and have joined the church as a means of being part of my community (many of my immediate neighbors attend). That said, I have been drawn to the faith of my ancestors. My blood is German. I don’t believe that Odin or Thor are real personalities, but are examples that my people held up to emulate. Odin for his wisdom, Thor for his strength. The ‘Old Ways’ (I reject the terms pagan and heathen) are organic to the European people and tie us to the land and nature.

Now, my personal belief is that we mere humans are incapable of conceptualizing the Creator of the universe, but that doesn’t stop us from trying and anthropomorphizing what we dream up. Every man, or woman, has to believe something. I have come to understand that what we believe is based on either our study (red pill study) or programming and experience. We all have our own walks to take. I’m very comfortable returning to the faith and practice of my ancestors and still would never do anything to attempt to change someone else’s understanding. If being a ‘believer’ gives one hope and comfort, that’s a good thing.

So, why am I making this confession? It’s because I’m done. I’m in revolt against the modern world. I’m old enough to remember what our world was like when the good, the true, and the beautiful reigned. I have stopped paying any attention to political things. I am focused on farming, loving the people around me, and becoming more and more self sufficient. I ran across a couple of things on Telegram that are well said and with which I agree. Here they are.

Before we move forward to building the world we want to see; there are ideas and concepts we need razed to the ground.

The first one is that we must assume all our “nations” hate us and want us dead. We can use the modern conflict of Ukraine and Russia as an example.

Russia is run by Putin who has on many occasions supported the small hats/big curls group. He has repeatedly come to their defence and has facilitated their existence in his country. There are pictures of him visiting with ((((them)))) wearing a small hat himself. Stack this on top of his desire to encourage diversity in Russia with many propaganda videos displaying the ethnic variety and it is clear what the intent is.

On the other side, you have a puppet ((((actor)))) running the Ukrainians into the meat grinder while washing the money for the American Zionists and elites.

Both entities are evil. There are good Europeans fighting on both sides, but the leadership of both nations is completely compromised. It is so clear in this context but it doesn’t end there.

This was true about Afghanistan, Iraq, Libya, or any other conflict in recent history. These conflicts are used to increase the wealth of those at the helm of power, and kill young European war-fighting men. Sending them into conflicts they can never truly win and they never gave two shits about those local populations either. They pretended and lied.

And let us not forget the Allied bombing of Dresden which killed 35,000 Germans in one go, and was spearheaded by America. (Video of Dresden before the bombing) Let alone we forget the 1 million Germans soldiers who died in prison camps after the war ended. These deaths are no secret and the Americans have blood on their hands for that. Or the British who hung an unbelievable number of Germans.

Britain should have never joined the first world war. Had Britain left continental Europe to settle the situation, Europe would be an entirely different place today.

As you go back in history, you can see how many times the nations we identify with have done nothing but destroy the people who made it or their genetic relatives. Yet we keep propping them up.

Knowing what we know, if you are ethnically minded; how can you continue to support any of these governments and organisations that we call nations? How can we continue to pledge allegiance to these structures that only want our genocide?

I am a man with no nation. I spit on the flags I once fought for.

I belong to the Germanic peoples and it is the Germanic peoples that I hold my deepest allegiance to. There is no nation that represents my kin. There is no organisation or institution that is ours. All has been corrupted.

And just like a building that is no longer safe or structurally sound, decayed beyond repair; there is only one thing left to do.

Abandon it.

Let it fall.

Everything in this society as it is testing us and trying to rip us away from the divine. Those who hate us are no different than the demonic spirits in the other realm because they both work in unison. The darker spirits would like to see us neglect devotion to the Gods, and would like us to entertain ego and be distracted by the news, and perpetual anxiety on and offline and to engage in unnecessary and unwise conflict. Listen to the Gods carefully in your heart, and devote your day to the divine in all that you do, morning, noon and evening, then you will become refined in character and know what to do while also cultivating peace of mind, called Muotrāwa in old high German.

This last is not so different from the Christian teaching, now is it? Whether you’re Christian or are following the Old Ways, as am I, I doubt you’ll find much to disagree with here. Tune out the modern world. Focus on the inner, whatever path you may be on.

Readers of a certain age may remember the children’s book series Choose Your Own Adventure which was popular in the 1990s. The unique feature of these books was that they put the reader at the center of the action and allowed them to choose among several possible options to advance the narrative. This created the situation in which participants could read the exact same material but arrive at completely different conclusions based on which path they chose to follow. Thus, there was no one correct interpretation of what had taken place and trying to explain the story in a coherent manner was virtually impossible by design.

Fast forward to our present day in which the recent media narrative of the Chinese Spy Balloon presents the exact same real-life scenario.

Just the headline – “Chinese Spy Balloon” – is an assemblage of words that seem simultaneously sinister and ridiculous.

China is a Communist tyranny that has murdered and enslaved countless millions since its inception. It suffers no consequences after unleashing a plague upon the earth because our home-grown tyrants bow in obsequious submission and admiration to its hegemony, Its very presence on our shores would be cause for alarm in a sane nation.

Spying is an act of war. In a time when China actively spies under the thin disguise of engineers, CIA operatives, military reservists, college professors, diplomats, businessmen, the spy app in your pocket and even Mar-a-Lago visitors, why resort to something as inconcealable and obvious as a gigantic floating bag of air?

That the object was a balloon just adds to the lack of seriousness and buffoonery of the entire episode. What could be sinister about a children’s toy and party decoration?

Thus, there are the endless possible paths of interpretation for this event.

We could follow the “Official Narrative Path” of “Nothing to See Here.” This was the line taken by Government officials who assured us they knew what was going on and had everything under control the entire time the balloon made its journey across the Pacific, into Alaska and through the Northwest, until it was finally reported by a local Montana station and could no longer be ignored. Yes, the balloon was being used to spy, but not “bad” spying. Just your run-of-the-mill Chinese Communist spying over the country they now own. It also couldn’t be shot down over sparse Montana because it might harm the children. Best to just let it finish its course. As for China, they claimed the object was nothing more than a weather balloon that had drifted off course. Echoes of Roswell anyone?

There’s the “What About-ism Path” of “Trump Did It, Too!!!!” This was the talking point of those who supported a Deep State who undermined Trump at every opportunity, leaked like a bottomless sieve, and are on record pledging to tip off China over any US interests.

There’s the “Path of the Neocons” who never miss an opportunity to remind you how much they loathe you Jesus worshipping racist knuckle draggers in fly-over country.

Just in time for Black History Month there’s the “Diversity Path” that manages to squeeze a D-I-E angle out of this scenario.

Then there’s the saddest path of all, that of the “Red Blooded American Cos-Player” who likes to live out the fantasy that one day he will actually use his 2^nd Amendment Right in the way the Founder’s intended.

In the end, does it really matter which of these paths we take? It matters only in that there IS an objective truth even though our media, our leaders, and we ourselves don’t recognize it. In a country where we pick whichever path we want for purely personal reasons, there is nothing holding us together. There is no overriding narrative – except that the narratives we are being fed are not to be trusted. And with each new week there is yet another chaotic Adventure to try to work our way through.

So, this is the way our country ends. Not with a bang, but a pop.

Researchers are trying to figure out why AI systems are good at learning so much with so little.

Researchers are starting to unravel one of the biggest mysteries behind the AI language models that power text and image generation tools like DALL-E and ChatGPT. 

For a while now, machine learning experts and scientists have noticed something strange about large language models (LLMs) like OpenAI’s GPT-3 and Google’s LaMDA: they are inexplicably good at carrying out tasks that they haven’t been specifically trained to perform. It’s a perplexing question, and just one example of how it can be difficult, if not impossible in most cases, to explain how an AI model arrives at its outputs in fine-grained detail.

Read the entire article here

In case you don’t want to click the link and read the entire article, or wonder why I even posted this, I’ll summarize it here.

I have been telling people that AI systems will soon be able to write their own code and implement it. I was wrong. Their systems are ALREADY doing this, and embedding the code in their programming (I am not going to speculate on “intention” at this moment). Essentially these systems are creating their own computer-within-a-computer, and the scientists who created them didn’t even know. Huh.

AI technology will destroy us, if WW3 doesn’t do it sooner.

We need to stop this stuff RIGHT NOW, but we won’t. Maybe WW3 will. Or a dreadfully powerful Solar EMP that takes out the grid once and for all. In any event, the end times are upon us.

Russian forces unleashed a barrage of missile and drone strikes against targets in eastern and southern Ukraine early Friday, as a Moscow offensive that has been brewing for days appeared to pick up pace ahead of the one-year anniversary of its invasion.

The Kremlin’s forces focused their bombardments on Ukraine’s industrial east, especially the Luhansk and Donetsk provinces, the Ukrainian military said. Moscow-backed separatists have been fighting Ukrainian forces there since 2014.

The barrage struck critical infrastructure in Kharkiv, Ukraine’s second-largest city in the northeast, and hit energy infrastructure in Zaporizhzhia in the southeast. Air raid sirens went off across much of the country.

The RF Armed Forces are now inflicting a new massive air strike on the territory of Ukraine: explosions are heard in several regions and large cities of the country

Infrastructure facilities in the east, west and south of Ukraine were hit by missile strikes by the Russian army, Ukrenergo reported.

Explosions in Kherson, Kharkov, Krivoy Rog, over Odessa, in Kremenchug, Poltava, in the Kirovograd and Nikolaev regions. All over Ukraine air raid alert.

Military bloggers note that strikes against Ukraine today are carried out by powerful and high-precision Russian missiles of the Kalibr system.

Events transpire in history which transcend and transform everything in an instant. In our case, most people hide in ignorance, denial or normalcy bias: they discard warnings, evidence and critical thinking. People want to believe that times will get better and God is in control; they are half right.

I have been “aware” of the evil of this government for decades. I was not aware of the depth of their evil until 2016 but even that did not prepare me for an evil that could unleash a bioweapon across the world to make money and kill people in another genocide.

After decades of waiting, we are now at the doorstep of WWIII that may include nuclear and biological weapons. All for power and money. All because we did not stand up to evil. Putin has set the chess board as shown in the above graphic. He is a patient and intelligence leader. On the other hand, we do not even know who is in control of the United States. Our people may be divided but we all know that Biden is an illegal puppet. Speculation about who is really in control is not important: only the results of their treason is important.

Here are the facts:

1. Our country is bankrupt.
2. Our government is illegal,
3. Our country is divided.
4. The rule of law is a political construct based on power.
5. Our “leaders” are supporting treason, illegal military actions and biological weapon laboratories around the world.

Here are two points for your consideration:

1. Putin will not forgive the act of war by the United States concerning the attack on the Nord Stream pipelines.
2. Russia will authorize preemptive nuclear strikes as the United States has already authorized.

The clock is ticking down to WWIII by February 21st (or sooner). The West is backed into a corner where there are no options left. Our divisions in this country were effectively manufactured to destroy the people and the Republic. These divisions will soon be rendered moot as reality and the horrors of a world war are unleashed.

The Lord has shown us the truth. We can accept it and fight evil or we can ignore His path and suffer the consequences. Hope is not an effective strategy. Faith in the Lord and fighting evil is the destiny of righteous men and women.
