This was written in a moment of catharsis, but never doubt, our apathy and inaction is the cause. We did this to the next generation. It was our responsibility to be the watchmen on the tower, keeping the tireless wolves of government brainwashing at bay and we fell asleep at the switch:
---
We are entering a world run by spoiled, unskilled, trans, queer, gay, nose-ringed, tatted, hair dyed perpetual children with zero self-awareness, zero understanding or curiosity for how things work, a work ethic you couldn't find with an electron microscope, who think the world owes them everything…
And who consider themselves the all-wise all-knowing arbiters of what you are allowed to say, think, feel, and do…
How about these words written by the apostle Paul to his young ‘apprentice’ Timothy (while under inspiration over 2000yrs ago) :
“ But know this, that in the LAST DAYS critical times hard to deal with will be here For men will be lovers of themselves , lovers of money, boastful, haughty, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, disloyal, having no natural affection, not open to any agreement, slanderers, without self-control, fierce, without love of goodness, betrayers, headstrong, puffed up with pride, lovers of pleasures rather than lovers of God, having an appearance of godliness but proving false to its power ; and from these turn away…wicked men and imposters will advance from bad to worse, misleading and being misled “
Notice the top two traits….and the last bit!
I’ve lived 83 yrs and have noticed this deterioration in my lifetime …All these traits can be seen in abundance , among young & old, all over the world now….but there IS some good news ,( keeps me sane ! ) jw.org
They need our guidance more than ever and a helping of tough love. They are victims, our job is to show them the way forward and welcome them into the fight for truth.
Scorn will only drive them away and make them dig in their heels...
I agree with you TriTorch about the scorn Didn’t Jesus tell us : “Love your enemies” …but In what way ?
He used the word translated into Greek, “agape” ..( …the type of love that’s different from “storge” or “Eros” etc ..) It’s …principled love to all….it doesn’t mean we’ve to necessarily have great affection for them like we do our family and friends He was talking about this “agape” love…which he also showed to his enemies; it’s based on principle …“to will the good of another” It’s different from some of the other four words used in scripture & translated to English as the one all-encompassing word : “love” ( like there’s “storge” for example isn’t there , which involves love & affection like we show between parents & children …family relationships etc)
So , you said it well, (about scorn driving people away etc) it’s a PRINCIPLED “agape” love that a follower of Christ tries to show to any enemies or even persecutors, just like Christ did It’s hard to do, but that’s what I try to show to all I meet When being ridiculed, scorned or even attacked …(all happened in my long life!) sometimes I fail but keep trying ! What helps is remembering this : I’m not their ultimate Judge …God is ! . HE will repay all of us won’t he ? , like the verses in Romans 12:17-21 remind us : “do not avenge yourselves, beloved, but yield place to the wrath, for it is written : “Vengeance is mine, I will repay,’ says Jehovah “ ( Paul was quoting there from Deuteronomy 32:35) So why worry ? It will happen…the rulers WILL be repayed according to their deeds…and so will we …
Thank you for your words, Jacqui, inspiring, loving, and relaxing to my psyche as I consider the harms that have transpired on millions around the world. Agape is very . . . hard to practice.
Not just to cover it up, and distract from it, but also to put the controls in place so that they don’t lose their position of power when the S Hits The FAN.
As Steve Bannon points out often...we are in a 4th Turning. It is a battle between Good and Evil, and the evil doers have been exposed...a lot of "clean-up on Aisle 9" to do.
Would you not say that we have already arrived at a great crisis? In fact short of an actual global nuclear war, I would say that the universally adopted cancellation of the concept of 'human rights' in 2020 heralded in the current turmoil, destruction and break-down of all the concepts of civilised society that gave birth to the Western Culture of the protestant era. We are devolving, whether by medical or military terrorism, into unrestrained savagery, at first dressed up as medical 'care', and now already moved towards utter totalitarianism, and increasingly unbridgeable estrangement from each other as human beings.
What a huge waste of money. We have globalists spending a fortune trying to control and eradicate humanity and a counter movement spending another fortune trying to stop them politely with words.
That money would be better spent by our leaders to make life better for everyone rather than fighting wars and oligarchs.
This is a good post that reflects the loss of interdependence, and the turning of science into a closed system.
One of the greatest limitations of a theoretical "framework" is that it excludes the consideration and existence of other dimensions.
A closed system is a system that does not exchange energy or matter between it and the environment. In the universe, as well as in nature, there really is no such thing as a closed system. With the possible exception of a few theoretical or hypothetical systems, all systems in the universe are open systems which are systems that constantly interact and exchange energy and/or matter with their environment.
On the other hand, an open system always strives to be in equilibrium with its active environment so that it cannot absorb, store and utilize any excess energy from the environment. The human body, for example, is an open system.
So the problem is that we have turned science into a closed system. The equations we invent to explain the unexplored or the unknown should make "sense" to the rational mind's way of thinking and perceiving.
If it doesn't make sense and fits our closed reality loops, then just cut parts until it happens. You can't imagine how many times this has happened in the history of physics, for example. And today, it happens in every field (The Downside of Scientific Studies: https://open.substack.com/pub/kingofhearts/p/the-downside-of-scientific-studies).
Mathematicians even have a name for this process: renormalization.
Over time, we have deconstructed our observed reality into subjects from which we've developed a huge variety of systems and methodologies: medicine, chemistry, physics, astronomy, economics, sociology, environmental sciences, etc.
Indeed, we need to organize our frameworks. However, we are currently on the other side of the efficiency arc. These systems have become extremely complex, flooded with redundant language and immensely rigid. Each can no longer communicate with one another as each has become a world of its own.
For example, if we bring information to a virologist that links the increase in viral infections to the reduction of the Earth's magnetic field; or alternatively, if we try to talk to a psychologist about the rise of eating disorders in the young, linking them to the loss of morality in the human race; or if we talk to a meteorologist about the changes in climate corresponding to epidemics, none of them would be able to understand what's talked about.
They can only understand what they know from the confinement of the closed framework they’ve assimilated, coupled by the respective language with which they've become identified to formulate their convictions.
The deleterious effect is that nowadays, instead of understanding the underlying mechanism, we try to adapt society to the rigidity of our closed systems. We try to make everyone see the same thing by repeating flawed and square explanations over and over again until things are assimilated as "truths"; a collective consensus.
In turn, it prevents humanity from understanding the interrelatedness that exists in between all planes of existence. So the real issue is never addressed. That’s why despite continued explosion of billions of words each day, through public discourse and scientific studies, humanity is absolutely lost, confused more than ever before. It cannot connect the dots. It can’t see what's unraveling in front of its eyes and under its nose. It cannot connect between Covid, as an evolutionary marker, and the bizarre things that are currently coming out of humanity.
One can clearly see that in just three years our psychology, belief systems and behavior have drastically changed: The confusion, the schism, the polarization, the identity crisis, tribalism, mass formation, the rise in mental illness, body dysmorphia, eating disorders and suicidal tendencies in the young and censorship, to name a few. They are a byproduct of the transformation ensuing within the human species, affecting its psychology, its behavior and obviously its biology.
Maybe it's time to reevaluate what we've learned to think we know?!
Many thanks for your thoughtful replies to my posts. I always read them carefully and with great interest. Please keep them coming. Best regards, John Leake
Very intelligently and insightfully stated! The history of medical science and research reveals much about the closed system we are now living in; one could easily call it (in my view) the closed system of allopathic medicine which became the dominant paradigm that ruled all of our thinking on disease processes and health from the 19th century (and much earlier); human beings and Nature(of which we are an integral part) are OPEN SYSTEMS and, as such, are constantly changing and adapting to our environments, both internally and outside of our bodies; the world of nature does the same and is governed by the same balance and harmony of our own immune systems; there were scientists and healers who once believed this (Bechamp, Florence Nightingale,etc.) but they were long ago forced out by those such as we see today with our medical charlatans and fake scientists who are ruled by profit and power motives and for whom there are no limits to their evil endeavors to maintain a CLOSED SYSTEM.
It’s important to recognize that this belief system has already cemented itself well within our consciousness as cellular memory.
For example, when you question the invalidity of the Germ Theory and raise the right questions that expose its inconsistencies and double standards, whether to a simpleton or to an academic, even though their mind will tell them that it's certainly a correct assessment, they will rarely if ever change their ways. They will keep holding onto the same pattern even though it does nothing, because the information has already seeped deep within as a habit and a thoughtform as a result of incessant repetition for over a hundred years.
Therefore it’s important to recognize that, as a result, it’s not purely linear, in the sense that all we have is greedy people behind the curtain trying to make a profit, but rather a large number of people, who unbeknownst to them, sustain these belief systems they have learnt to see as coming from without.
In other words, we have many people who wear white hats who unconsciously do black work. They see themselves as dissidents, freedom and truth fighters, however, still use a language and hold onto inconclusive explanations to explain phenomena. By that, they inadvertently solidify the distortion we see in our world as invalid theories that sustain all our methodologies which are no longer suitable to our times.
Before any outward revolution can take place, an inward revolution of mind and spirit has to precede it. And this, fortunately or unfortunately, can ONLY be made on the individual level, one by one.
A very wise and insightful observation deserving of high praise and appreciation! I totally agree about the need for an "inward revolution of mind and spirit" and that it must be an individual choice; in fact we are in the mess we are in today because of the widespread, collective loss of personal identity and sovereignty; or as Bonhoeffer described the "collective stupidity" or "human defect" of our species; but belief systems are formed through learning and education and even cellular memory can adapt and change with new information and understanding; there is hope in the fact that we are open systems and not the closed system within which the technocratic oligarchs and medical charlatans want to keep us enslaved.
The "my way or the highway" thinking came from those who escaped the ruling class of Europe for a better life in the Americas. "God bless America" was propaganda for killing off the natives and rounding up the remaining into concentration camps we call "reservations". Since this oppressor behavior has been built into the American society for over 200 years, it keeps getting worse and more deeply ingrained. I still remember in 5th grade learning that "native Americans were savages". If someone came onto my land and I got mad, then I'm a savage? The monster has to eat itself before a new paradym emerges.
I enjoyed every word! I’m intrigued by the “Strauss–Howe generational theory.” As I near my 67th birthday, it would seem that there is a variation/change in culture or society every quarter century or so. My grandpa often said: “The more things change, the more they stay the same.” In other words, what has been is what will be. I’m tempted to think that we spend much of our time trying to change the world only to discover that it’s much the same when we leave as it was when we arrived. Thanks for your post!!
Ovid in Metamorphoses writes about the four stages of human history, starting with the Golden Age in which people were wise, strong and peaceful, but slowly people would degenerate over time to become more ignorant and violent. Eventually this would lead to a collapse of civilization that would then spawn a new golden age. All the indo european tribes had this same cyclical notion of history.
Our founding fathers said that with time governments become more corrupt and tyrannical. This is what we are going through. Hopefully, we will have peaceful change.
When those that control every narrative are part of a tribe that you aren't a member of then the only sensible response is to resurrect your own tribal ambitions. Tribalism is the basis of nationhood and only as part of independent nations do ALL people's excel and find true happiness as God told us openly in his lauding of nation states. I'll listen to God thanks very much.
My tribe tried that over 200 years ago and most got wiped out and the remaining are in concentration camps that you people call reservations. You can retaliate but you better have more firepower and strategy than we did.
Smyrna and Philadelphia knew who, what, why, the evil ones were/are. They pretend to be exactly opposite of what they truly are. The synagogue of satan. Apollyon / Aboddon's children doing the deeds of their father, inciting chaos for their father to enter as the (fake) king of peace. This knowledge is locked into scripture. Christ calls it The Key of David. What it opens nobody can close what it closes nobody can open. Learn it and sear it into your mind. Reading Jude, Christ's 1/2 brother first will help. Read only from an AKJ version with an older Strong's concordance so that any unfitting words can be traced back to its root.
It is only in a clear revelation of Christ that we can detect who the antichrists are. You must know the real before you can identify the counterfeits. Certainly these are spiritual enemies, not carnal entities (like the WEF, etc). For they are described as "them which say they are Jews, and are not, but are of the synagogue of Satan." A "synagogue" is not an earthly kingdom, but a spiritual gathering, or at least a "professedly spiritual" gathering.
So the problem for Smyrna and Philadelphia were false-hearted members of the church, whereby Satan sought to infiltrate the church and turn it out of God's way.
The "key of David" refers to the authority to open the door to the treasury of the temple. See Isaiah 22, which is where this symbol is derived from. It is the same as the "keys of the kingdom of heaven" that Christ gave to the Disciples. It is given to those who understand God's work for the time, and work closely in cooperation with Him, to do His work, not a work of their own devising.
For those people, all heaven will cooperate as they do their part in the work of God. We see this clearly in Peter's words to the lame man:
Acts 3:6 "Silver and gold have I none; but such as I have give I you: In the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth rise up and walk."
He opened the treasury of heaven and gave life to that man, healing him. He could only do this because at that time, the disciples had grasped more clearly what work God wanted to do in the world, and their hearts were in harmony with that purpose. As long as they worked in harmony with this purpose, the "all power" that was given to Christ, was available to them.
Matthew 13:52 Then said He unto them, Therefore every scribe which is instructed unto the kingdom of heaven is like unto a man that is an householder, which brings forth out of his treasure things new and old.
Problem here is teaching or reading a modern version. Smyrna and Philadelphia were the only ones found worthy. The Key of David opens the door of truth. Once opened lies can't shut it. No reference to a treasury of any kind in this earth age or the one to follow. Thank you for sharing what you think and were taught. You write like a reverend. Do I know you?

Smyrna and Philadelphia knew who, what, why, the evil ones were/are. They pretend to be exactly opposite of what they truly are. The synagogue of satan. Apollyon / Aboddon's children doing the deeds of their father, inciting chaos for their father to enter as the (fake) king of peace. This knowledge is locked into scripture. Christ calls it The Key of David. What it opens nobody can close what it closes nobody can open. Learn it and sear it into your mind. Reading Jude, Christ's 1/2 brother first will help. Read only from an AKJ version with an older Strong's concordance so that any unfitting words can be traced back to its root.
It is only in a clear revelation of Christ that we can detect who the antichrists are. You must know the real before you can identify the counterfeits. Certainly these are spiritual enemies, not carnal entities (like the WEF, etc). For they are described as "them which say they are Jews, and are not, but are of the synagogue of Satan." A "synagogue" is not an earthly kingdom, but a spiritual gathering, or at least a "professedly spiritual" gathering.
So the problem for Smyrna and Philadelphia were false-hearted members of the church, whereby Satan sought to infiltrate the church and turn it out of God's way.
The "key of David" refers to the authority to open the door to the treasury of the temple. See Isaiah 22, which is where this symbol is derived from. It is the same as the "keys of the kingdom of heaven" that Christ gave to the Disciples. It is given to those who understand God's work for the time, and work closely in cooperation with Him, to do His work, not a work of their own devising.
For those people, all heaven will cooperate as they do their part in the work of God. We see this clearly in Peter's words to the lame man:
Acts 3:6 "Silver and gold have I none; but such as I have give I you: In the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth rise up and walk."
He opened the treasury of heaven and gave life to that man, healing him. He could only do this because at that time, the disciples had grasped more clearly what work God wanted to do in the world, and their hearts were in harmony with that purpose. As long as they worked in harmony with this purpose, the "all power" that was given to Christ, was available to them.
Matthew 13:52 Then said He unto them, Therefore every scribe which is instructed unto the kingdom of heaven is like unto a man that is an householder, which brings forth out of his treasure things new and old.
Problem here is teaching or reading a modern version. Smyrna and Philadelphia were the only ones found worthy. The Key of David opens the door of truth. Once opened lies can't shut it. No reference to a treasury of any kind in this earth age or the one to follow. Thank you for sharing what you think and were taught. You write like a reverend. Do I know you?
