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.
Very well put. Cannot disagree a bit. Become and stay as set-apart as possible. Set apart in His Spirit as He leads you. we are Individuals, and He will guide us as He will, if we are listening and choosing too. we must Put Him First in all thoughts all things.
He is in our Flesh and He has come in the flesh. i some times wonder how many Truly understand this.
Thanks for sharing.
There SO many times where The Bible declares that Jesus is God, I frankly don’t know where to begin. Here’s one passage from John 14:9:
Jesus saith unto him, Have I been so long time with you, and yet hast thou not known me, Philip? he that hath seen me hath seen the Father; and how sayest thou then, Show us the Father?
Or John 1:1: In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.
I’m truly sorry for you that your professor’s at the seminary you attended were so woefully inadequate in explaining scripture to you. The Pastor’s that are trained at our theological seminary still have to be proficient in Hebrew, Greek and Aramaic. Most “pastors” today are not only NOT trained in the original languages, MANY seminaries have these languages as electives in their training seminaries. Unbelievable, really.
Yes, Jesus is God, and it’s painfully obvious once anyone reads The Bible. One final passage from John 1:10: He was in the world, and the world was made by him, and the world knew him not.
Who else but “God” can create the world???
Why, ((((DEM JOOOOOZ))), of course! Don’t you know they control absolutely EVERYTHING? (((JOOOO JOOOO JOOOO JOOOOOOOO!!!)))
What an absolute crock. It’s like listening to the jigs blaming De Wite Maynn for all dey problems. Truly tiresome.
No kidding man ! Gentile Impotency is not my fault!
Anyone familiar with history and The Bible can see that Juice have been fighting against Jesus and Christianity at every turn for thousands of years. Hence He called them out as worshippers of the Synagogue of Satan.
Yeah, Jews don’t have any power over anything- just ask Kanye, haha.
Just absolute domination of:
The US government domestic and foreign policy.
The banking system.
The education system.
Our electoral system.
Media.
Hollywood.
Television programming.
Advertising.
Movies.
Newspapers.
Every organization that is flooding White countries with immigrants, replacing the founding stock of every White Nation on the planet.
Every. Single. Societal. Institution.
Some of us can see.
Yahuah is in total control of all.
Why would he allow all of this? This has all taken place before.
mankind has rebelled.
Well said. There is a great difference between religion and spirituality. The spiritual recognize God in all things, especially nature. It does not matter if they pray to God, Jesus, Allah, Buddha, Krishna or whomever. Religions tend to be self-serving, run by those (as in politics) who seek profit and power over enlightenment, bickering to the point of murder with other sects who don’t follow what they proscribe.
I believe the spiritual see the face of God more clearly, and in a more real sense, than those who are strictly religious ever can.
If you see ‘God’ in allah, you got some more messed up theology. Just saying.
I think it works the other way better, if you believe in Allah you still need to try to see and listen to God.
I think, all men who sincerely look to and for God, will likely find him, no matter what their language, or belief system! I suspect we all see God poorly and differently with our hearts and souls! I also think it is important to listen to what he might say! I just try to follow Jesus commandment to love one another and listen to God!!
We all have our own opinions and I have shouldn’t have gotten
involved in religious discussions, as it detracts from today’s important issues of national and personal survival with freedom, both of which look precarious these days!
TINVOWOOT, tempus fugit.
Denominational religions have become apostate over time, they seem to rely on works,lean towards social justice sermons instead of sovereign grace that Calvin and other reformers preached and wrote on. Few churches today, mostly independent smaller ones still preach the sermons of times past.
Well written, Malachi! About 40 years ago the Way International published “Jesus Christ Is Not God.” Tremendous research if you are interested.
The least interested seem to be the professing Christian denominations. Proud to stand with you in this fight for freedom and against tyranny.
The problem as i see it.
The three, are individual. They are each distinct in ways and character. Yet all three do make up the one.
The danger: If we think they are all the same. when we think we have Him, His Holy Spirit within us, we too think we are as God. A God. Many world wide seem to be exhibiting this trait, both believers and non believers. i believe we are too become as sons, not as Gods. we can only become sons , and perhaps only partially,( i am flawed) become this through the Son.
First John 5 seems to be very revealing. And i do believe certain versions have been altered. Some say verse 7 has been altered.
https://www.quora.com/When-was-1-John-5-7-added-to-the-Bible
Chapter and verse! The few unclear verses must be studied in light of all the clear verses! Son of God used 64 times! Adhering to the principle laws of language must be applied. Word study of elohim and names of God would open eyes! Could go on and on.
The Trinity is evident from Genesis 1:1 in the Hebrew word Elohim. John expands on that in the Gospels (Greek: Logos) and Jesus did in fact claim divinity on more than one occasion ( I am). I will make that clear statement and will not debate that point further in the confines of a comment section. Walter Martin in his excellent work: The Kingdom of the Cults uses the Trinity as the dividing line.
The Deity of Christ and salvation by Grace are more of a dividing line between cults and Truth. No cult believes either of those two. Plus as minor extras, most at least air-condition Hell and say you have to belong to their particular ‘church’.
Very well said! I fear Ragnaork is upon us! We apparently have much in common, I have German roots as well and live in the NWA Ozarks. Have you heard or do you per chance like Wagner’s “Der ring des Neibelungen? He has several other very good Christian based opera’s. I realize most people don’t like opera but give it a chance, many are enlightening!
Not an opera fan, but I love Wagner. Flight of the Valkyries. Awesome! I think we’re in a good place in the Ozarks. Interesting that most faiths have some form of Ragnarock or Tribulation. They all speak of a new heaven and a new earth. Earth changes that put us in a different orientation with the stars and global catastrophe that ‘resets’ the planet. I suspect there is a human racial memory of such a time or times in the past and that they are cyclic. We appear headed into one now. Just another reason to focus on what’s important and ignore clown world, until or unless it reaches our door.
You sure stirred things up here, I love it keep up the good work!
On our home stead it is hard to focus on anything but work, there is little clown world around here!
Are you in AR or MI, can you say?
Missouri.
The truth will be found in original source material. I opened the Book and have not put down since. I measure everything by that truth. You were seeking, the door was opened and you walked through it--well written thoughts! May they encourage others to seek and find.
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.
And thus the BS spills out. Can you say you worship Odin and Thor while saying you don’t worship Odin and Thor?
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.
Including the Germanic peoples. And the nations made up of the Germanic peoples. No, wait, you are German, of Germany, made up of some Germanic peoples… of which all has been corrupted.
I’m old enough to remember what our world was like when the good, the true, and the beautiful reigned.
I am old enough to remember that this has never been the case. But I am old enough to remember that it has gotten worse.
Anyhow, you have no idea who “the Gods” are. I suggest you find out. They are ancient. No doubt you have read about them, yet they go by many names, throughout many cultures, but they are all the same. There are many Elohim, but only one Elohim Yahweh.
Best of luck to you.
The Trinity. Christians affirm that God is more than one Person, but that each of those Persons is the same in essence. We affirm that Jesus is one of those Persons. He is God. But in another respect, Jesus isn’t God -- he is not the Father. The Father is not the Son, and the Son is not the Father. Nevertheless, they are the same in essence.
There are no others with the same essence.
In the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth. -- Gen 1:1
In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. -- John 1:1
He was in the beginning with God. John 1:2
But of the Son he says, “Your throne, O God, is forever and ever, the scepter of uprightness is the scepter of your kingdom. You have loved righteousness and hated wickedness; therefore God, your God, has anointed you with the oil of gladness beyond your companions.” -- Hebrews 1:8-9
Should I go on?
Well, there is always the Maypole.
Great points ! It tells alot about the spiritual condition of nc renegade to have this presented here. Too many demon worshipers here !
And here i thought we were all perfect? Should we not have discussions?
Only the perfect need apply?
OK. So I’m a demon worshiper because I don’t agree with your religious faith? Then I’m done. If you can’t be tolerant of other views, then I’m in the wrong place. Consider this my last post.
You’re the one so intolerant of a belief in a tri-une godhead that you had to write a lengthy article about it telling nearly every Christian how right you are and how wrong they are.
Deliberately sowing strife for your pride.
For where envying and strife is, there is confusion and every evil work.
Trolling much. I saw nothing where Malachi said that he was intolerant of other people’s views.
Well I am intolerant my heavenly father demands it.
Are you also tolerant at times? Does our Father also require this?
Yes sir!
Kind of crazy looking at some of the views being shared and displayed here.
Instead of honest discussion, we just want to tear each other down. Many, not all. we are worried about the communist and the enemy is within.
Well… on the other-hand… The immutable laws of toleration is upon you. You own it… Western Man.
I don’t agree with Malachi but I also don’t think he should not be allowed to post if NCR wants it posted. A good debate is a good thing. Teh Rabbi’s ‘demon worshipper’ comment is a little weird and non-descript.
I decide who posts articles on NCRenegade. Once that author is set up, I give them the freedom to write what they believe people should be discussing. I have removed one author in 13 years for reposting previous work that he had written instead of updating the information.
I will write an article concerning the comments here. While I am not happy with the tone and tact of many comments, this is a discussion that should be considered and debated. I had hoped that someone would have recognized that some of our founding fathers rejected the concept of the trinity. I suppose it is easier to fight and attack other people than do some thought and question everything.
Oh don’t do that! I need the stimulation!
I didn’t mean just you on any personal level. You are only calling on different demons now. The Christian is no better off than you with your old ways. They have their demonic idols . Christmas, Easter, new years day, and of course the Jesus Idol, so nothing personal man, I actually like your articles. So you shouldn’t quit in my opinion.
Malachi, like you, I follow the old gods. I am comfortable in my beliefs. I don’t need or want “saving”. One thing I keep coming up against when discussing religion with an Xn is that they don’t seem to grasp that I simply don’t believe in their god or their devil and no, reading their book is not going to show me the “truth” and cause me to convert.
i believe you are wrong.
satan could care less about ones genealogy. As is well displayed amongst many of these hateful comments.
Lon I think its a little different YHVH will accept all regardless of lineage. However hasatan definitely cares about it.
Will,
i believe my comment about lineage was directed to someone else. Not you. Looks like that comment was removed.
Yahuah wishes to save us all.
satan also desires us all, he wishes still to be King. he also wants us to follow him, i know he fails.
You could be right. After all a stopped clock is right twice a day.
Well said.
Where does the spark of life come, God almighty. Gen: 2:7 And the Lord God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul. I believe the son the Lord Jesus Christ is so in line with his Father, mind body and soul that this is what he refers to. And to that fact God has given him authority over his creation. In my human condition faith plays a very big part of my spiritual relationship with God the Father and Jesus Christ the son. My roots are Scotch Irish and that takes me back to the Celtic which I do not seek.
The Godhead is as three “rocks” (the Father — Deut. 32:15, the Son — Matt. 16:18, the Holy Spirit [the water out of that “Rock” in 1 Cor. 10:4]). Jesus Christ is as three seeds (Abraham’s — Hebrews 2:16, David’s — Romans 1:3, the woman’s — Genesis 3:15). The three likenesses of Abraham’s seed (“stars” — Genesis 15:5, “sand” — Genesis 22:17, “dust” — Genesis 13:16). The three applications of the Old Testament sacrifices (the individual — Genesis 4:4, the family — Genesis 8:20, the nation — Leviticus 4:13-15). The Old Testament reveals the Father, the Gospels reveal the Son, and the Acts and Epistles reveal the Holy Spirit. The number three is naturally connected with the Trinity (Matthew 28:19, 1 John 5:7-8). Allow me to provide a few examples of God’s creation: a Man has a Soul, Body and Spirit; a Family consists of a Man, a Woman, a Child; Problems are Mental, Physical, or Emotional; Time is Past, Present, and Future; Location is Land, Sea or Air; Music is Harmony, Rhythm, and Melody; Bible language is Hebrew, Aramaic, And Greek; the Old Testament is the Law, the Prophets and the Writings (Psalms); the New Testament is the Gospels, the Acts, and the Epistles. I could go on and on as God has left examples throughout his Creation. 2 Timothy 2:15 — Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth. Please search this verse in any modern translation — something that reads differently isn’t the same. Another analogy of a triune or trinity: a basketball. 1) the outer flesh is the body 2) the hidden bladder is the soul 3) the air filling the ball is the spirit.
I’m not liking the basketball analogy just because it consists of 3entirely different elements. I’ve don’t like the ‘egg’ analogy. Everyone forgets that an egg has 4parts and leave out that thin membrane, plus the other 3 are entirely different. Water makes the best analogy. It is always H2O, always the same but in different states and all 3 can exist at the same time, in the same place.
I probably shouldn’t step into this fray, but…. People not believing Jesus is God presents the problem of ‘Who then is your Saviour ?’ Numerous OT references make it plain that only God can save -- Hosea 13:4 ‘…beside me there is no Saviour’ yet in the NT we see Titus 1:4 ‘…the Lord Jesus Christ our Saviour.’ God will not give His glory to another -- Isa 42:8, so then how does He in the NT ‘allow’ Jesus to be worshipped and be Saviour ? There is no salvation in the name of Jehovah. Salvation is only available from Jesus -- Acts 4:12 ‘Neither is there salvation in any other: (excludes any OT Saviour) for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved.’ This very bluntly means that a person cannot be saved unless they believe Jesus is God. Anyone thinking they can understand all there is about God and His dealings is sadly mistaken or else their god is very small.
Mat: 24:36 But of that day and hour knoweth no man no, not the angels of heaven, but my Father only. He is not talking of himself, but to his Father in heaven.
Correct.
“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.”
Yet many of the people in these other Nations do not hate the people of other nations. The ones who are waking up. Waking up to the Reality of the evil that is running amuck in this world at all levels of society. All levels!
1 John 5:7
For there are three that bear record in heaven, the Father, the Word, and the Holy Ghost: and these three are one.
John 1:14
And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth.
John 1:15
John bare witness of him, and cried, saying, This was he of whom I spake, He that cometh after me is preferred before me: for he was before me.
John 14:6
Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.
John 3:36
He that believeth on the Son hath everlasting life: and he that believeth not the Son shall not see life; but the wrath of God abideth on him.
In Jesus’ own words, the Holy Trinity of God proclaimed:
“All power is given unto me in Heaven and in earth.
Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost:
Teach them to observe all things whatsoever I commanded you; and, lo, I am with you alway, even unto the end of the world.”
KJV: Matthew 28:18-20
Catholic brothers and sisters, please check your bibles, but I’m sure it says the same thing. Not only does Jesus declare himself to be deity, but he also declares the Holy Trinity of God as well.
And, I believe him.
man i do not like that word deity.
All Power in Heaven and earth. Yet only the Father knows? If the Son is the exact same as Yahuah why does He not know? Consider Mark 13:32 And The ascension Mark 16:19.
The Son is our example, we are to follow Him. Glory returns to the Father, the Creator in this way.
The word Trinity is a man made construct. we (man,) are we told not to add nor subtract from His Word? Precepts of men?
He warned us of stumbling stones. Are some of these stones man’s additions?
Greetings, Sir
I greatly regret that you were so ill-dealt with by those who should have risen to the occasion and been fair and honest with their answers.
I beg you to listen to my humble response. The prophets declared that the Messiah would be God in the flesh (Isa.9:6-7). The prophet Daniel spoke of the divine “Son of Man” (Dan.7:13-14). This is why Jesus chose to use the title “The Son of Man”.
Jesus declared Himself to be “equal with God” which is why the Pharisees wanted to kill Him (Mat.26:63-66; Joh.5:17-27; 10:30).
John, who knew Jesus better than anyone declared Him to be God, who came in the flesh (Joh.1:1-4, 14-18).
Jesus declared that no one would come to the Father but through Him (Joh.14:6).
Paul declared that Jesus was “equal with God” (Phi.2:6-9). He repeatedly spoke of Him as God (Tit.2:13) as did Peter (2Pet.1:1; 2Pe.3:18).
In Rom.10:13 Paul quotes Joel 2:32 “For whoever calls on the name of the Lord shall be saved.” The reference is to Jesus in v.9. But in the Hebrew of Joel, the word Lord is Yahweh, the highest name for God.
These are but a few of the many references to the deity of Jesus. I beg you, in the words of the apostle, “Therefore, do not cast away your confidence, which has great reward.” (Heb.10:35).
Only God in the flesh could pay the penalty of the sins of the human race, and He alone can give us the gift of eternal life by believing in Him (Joh.3:16-19).
With some prayer and thought I wade into this thread.
One time I asked about the trinity and why Jesus had to come to earth live a human life and then die a criminal’s death on the cross.
The Pastor and I were at his chicken house at the time. Pastor said the chickens are not really bright and sometimes I wish I could speak chicken as to warn them when a storm was coming.
Then he said that’s the same with God vs Humans. We try to pretend we SHOULD understand God but were like the chickens vs the Farmer.
So, God sent Himself as His son (remember He’s the Creator of Heaven and Earth so Human Biology isn’t a limit to Him) to speak Chicken to US so we could understand Him and His desire to protect us from storms.
God has spoken to us directly in several places in the Bible. When you figure you have a need to force God to explain something FIRST read
Job 38
The Lord Speaks
1 Then the Lord spoke to Job out of the storm. He said:
2 “Who is this that obscures my plans
with words without knowledge?
3 Brace yourself like a man;
I will question you,
and you shall answer me.
4 “Where were you when I laid the earth’s foundation?
Tell me, if you understand.
5 Who marked off its dimensions? Surely you know!
Who stretched a measuring line across it?
6 On what were its footings set,
or who laid its cornerstone—
7 while the morning stars sang together
and all the angels[a] shouted for joy?
8 “Who shut up the sea behind doors
when it burst forth from the womb,
9 when I made the clouds its garment
and wrapped it in thick darkness,
10 when I fixed limits for it
and set its doors and bars in place,
11 when I said, ‘This far you may come and no farther;
here is where your proud waves halt’?
All men must work out their own salvation in fear (reverence for God) and trembling.
Philippians 2: 11and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father. 12Therefore, my beloved, just as you have always obeyed, not only in my presence, but now even more in my absence, continue to work out your salvation with fear and trembling. 13For it is God who works in you to will and to act on behalf of His good purpose.…
Satan (The Lord of this World) loves to divide and render us uselessly squabbling between ourselves.
Thus, we FAIL to serve God our King.
Praying for wisdom
This is a test. I tried to comment, but I keep getting an “awaiting approval” notice.
You submitted the same comment three times which did not pass the Askimet plugin rules for approval. I have posted these rules multiple times in order for people to understand how the commenting process works. My patience is wearing thin today after the comments that were submitted for this post. I deleted all three of your comments that were pending approval for all less than one hour after seeing that your patience was wearing thin also.
You must have the patience of a saint, bless you. Thanks again!
I wish. I prayed for patience once. The tests that were thrown at me to learn patience were the hardest in my life.
I am only trying to offer a site where people can come together and have a fair discourse of items. Instead, I find people trying to divide and attack others. Until we realize why people are divisive, we will never regain our freedom or our faith.
Sir, please forgive me. I honestly didn’t mean to upset you. And, it certainly isn’t my intention to upset anyone. I simply love truth. And, as far as I’m concerned, the Holy Bible is the gold standard of truth.
Pontius Pilate asked Jesus, “what is truth”? But he didn’t give Jesus time to answer him. If he had, I suppose that Jesus would have said to him, “you’re looking at it.”
To all: please read Matthew 28:18-20. Jesus declares himself deity, and he also declares the holy trinity of God. That’s it, either believe it or don’t believe it. That is the sum of it.
As for me, Lord Jesus, I believe every word you said.
I hope you can get through strider, but we live in such a clown world now. You can hammer the ignorant with 20 facts on any subject and they will just believe what they want to believe ,evidence be damned!
I’m in agreement with you. Most folks have been fooled by the “god of this world” 2 Corinthians 4:4 and it’s the Laodicean (the people rights) crowd. So then faith cometh by hearing; and hearing by the word of God -- Romans 10:17
I just heard of the word “syncretist” for the first time the other day. Now I see it again. Strange.
“There is no nation that represents my kin. There is no organisation or institution that is ours. All has been corrupted.”
These have been among the things the elites didn’t want the people to catch on to; that they were constructs set up by them, while the others join their militaries, work in the hospitals, build up their technocracy, run their corporations -- any capacity to serve and give energy to them. It’s about hoarding the intellectual capital and usurping the care, the natural affections of others. What is currently left for a spouse to give to another for instance, upon often living divergent lives with both working outside of the home, courtesy of their precision focus and planning of the sexual revolution? This is why the corporate Christian church system was so insidious, in not directing the attention of the congregations towards being a change agent, but rather endorsing submission as the supreme tenet of being a good adherent. There was nothing organic about the functioning and directionality in terms of how people were steered (corralled). That’s why the organizations and institutions were set up and run the way the were/are. It was a race with one side in the know, to see who could hold onto the cultural, racial, social, familial, artistic, occupational, military, domestic and international economies, the industries, government, law, health, religion, the Constitution and life itself, i.e., abortion. A people without a culture, who govern no systems, but rather are governed (the antithesis of what is claimed, such as this being a constitutional republic and that the people are directing the course of the political and social trajectory which is all but a fantasy, isn’t even possible in a country that doesn’t teach its youth the foundations of how the country is supposed to be run, and other edifying subjects), have thereby essentially agreed to be led rather than in affecting a forward momentum. In reality, it couldn’t have belonged to the people anyway, because they weren’t taught and didn’t know how to agitate for institutional integrity, and there are a myriad of reasons for it. Rather, it’s like Benjamin Franklin said, “if you can keep it”. They knew the race was on.

Great entry. I have gradually come through a similar evolution of thought over the decades. Often wish I could have arrived to these conclusions earlier, but I guess we are where we are and when.
Can you share the Telegram channel identifiers of the writers whom you quoted? I would like to read more of this type of content. Would be open to other recommendations too.
From Luke 8: “And they by the wayside are they that hear; then the devil cometh, and taketh the word out of their heart, lest believing they should be saved.”
There’s a danger when one is down in the hole for too long. Especially true when the makeup air fails. I might be the guy on the surface telling you to get out, NOW. Smash your PC and get out of the hole. Save YOUR soul, THEN come back, if you must.
My friend, you may be correct. Perhaps I’m destined for the fire. I’ve been wrong before and will be so again. I’m no longer so prideful as to believe that my way is the only way. My way is right for me, and that’s enough. I just no longer believe what you do. I’ve studied enough and prayed on my knees enough to have come to the conclusion that I’m going to be OK … and so are you. We all have different paths. I no longer believe I need to be ‘saved’. I no longer believe in original sin. Continuing to argue about who is correct and who is wrong is pointless and divisive. You’re a good man who obviously cares for others. Don’t doubt that those who differ with you on matters of the heart and spirit are different in that regard. We just see things differently.
And then there’s the problem of momentum… expressed as ‘too, little, too late’. My bad.
Carry on but stay confessed.

I’d like to take this opportunity to thank the admin., Wes I believe, for allowing me to post a short rebuttal on the Divinity of Christ. Have a great day!!!!!
