about the "Statue of Liberty". Everyone knows it was a gift from the French but not everyone knows that it was modeled after the "goddess of reason", a PROSTITUTE and byproduct of the French Revolution.
3 Thy nakedness shall be uncovered, yea, thy shame shall be seen: I will take vengeance, and I will not meet thee as a man.
or, CONFUSION.
That is the language being spoken in the world today.
That is the name of the game.
The biggest culprit is the mainstream media. Its biggest accomplices are those who are ok with lies. They not only tell lies but approve of those who do so.
Romans 1
32 Although they know God’s righteous decree that those who do such things deserve death, they not only continue to do these very things but also approve of those who practice them.
“We need to assure the public that, unless some really serious variant causes another emergency, that we’re going to soon stop our emergency response and start with a 'living with COVID’ response,” Gostin said.
"LIVING WITH COVID" appears to be something a lot of people are advocating for...
I guess it will be sometime before someone explains exactly what that means but either way it's not something that makes me feel better about the present state of the world.
I mean, if we just "have to live with covid", what was the vaccine hype all about? People actually experienced serious side-effects from the vaccines. Some people even died. Others developed medical conditions. All for naught? All of that just so that someone can simply declare "Oh well, we'll just have to live with Covid". Just sweep it all under the rug? How do you expect people that see this to react?
It's turning out to be the most cynical, inhumane, plot in the history of mankind.
And the covid passports? Travel restrictions? Lockdowns? Concentration Camps?Was it all just a waste of time? Was it all just part of the façade?
What happens next?
Aside from inhumane, it's all just insane.
Just keep them as confused as possible. And sadly, some actually accept such rhetoric.

2nd Thessalonians
9 The coming of the lawless one will be in accordance with how Satan works. He will use all sorts of displays of power through signs and wonders that serve the lie, 10 and all the ways that wickedness deceives those who are perishing. They perish because they refused to love the truth and so be saved. 11 For this reason God sends them a powerful delusion so that they will believe the lie 12 and so that all will be condemned who have not believed the truth but have delighted in wickedness.
The editing/doctoring of videos and images by way of the WWW/666 is likely going to serve as culprit, or at least facilitate the DELUSION as described in the verse above.
Revelation 13
5The second beast was given power to give breath to the image of the first beast, so that the image could speak and cause all who refused to worship the image to be killed.
This too could also be made possible by way of the internet. Think video MEMES.

(also called effectual grace,[113] effectual calling, or efficacious grace) asserts that the saving grace of God is effectually applied to those whom he has determined to save (that is, the elect) and overcomes their resistance to obeying the call of the gospel, bringing them to a saving faith.
When God sovereignly purposes to save someone, that individual certainly will be saved.
When you grab ahold of grace during the sanctification process, you trust God. When you sense the work being accomplished, you know God. When you realize it's all God's doing and that the Holy Spirit cannot be resisted, it is very humbling.
The Holy Spirit, "graciously causes the elect sinner to cooperate, to believe, to repent, to come freely and willingly to Christ." This is not to deny the fact that the Spirit's outward call (through the proclamation of the Gospel) can be, and often is, rejected by sinners; rather, it is that inward call which cannot be rejected.
There is nothing on earth more liberating than this act of the Holy Spirit.
In a world where deceit is the native tongue, simply telling the truth is a revolutionary act.
There's not much that can be done to stop or prevent people from spreading lies especially if and when doing so advances whatever agenda that particular person is pushing. Lying is no longer an innocent act nowadays. It is deliberate.
After all, this dimension(earth) is a lie itself and as such subject to consummation. And soon enough, the man known as THE LIE, will make himself known if you could believe that and will be destroyed by the Truth, Christ Jesus himself.
The cycle is perpetuated by those of this world, who either do not know themselves and are thus confused, or those who claim to know who they are but turn out to be whatever they think the world wants them to be.
Quite simply, they are lost. Lost minds and lost souls. What should we pray for in this instance?
The same thing we should pray for in all instances.
The will of God.
Let me guess? When the test results come back....they're all gonna be negative? Because if not, some people are gonna have to quarantine. And that's gonna mess up the show and subsequently the ratings.
LOL.
who are yet to be united.
The message is the following :
Do not marvel at my deeds, do not marvel at my approach to life. Do not grow amazed at any of my doing but put your trust in the Lord Almighty.
For it is by the work of the Holy Spirit, in the Name of Jesus Christ, that this is being accomplished.
I have not sought publicity, nor the attention of anyone. On the contrary, I have humbled myself to the point where I do not allow myself, or my image to be lifted up and posted on any of your social media sites which are all a platform for vanity, gossip, and selfishness.
To my God, my Rock and my fortress, my tower and my strength, my friend and my redeemer:
I am truly humbled by the assignment you have given me my Lord. And I will forever thank you for these tears of joy...for you know my heart.
I love you.
Come Lord Jesus.
The hypocrisy of the MSM is obvious when it comes to Covid. They flood their newspapers with covid news, beg their readers/viewers to get the vaccine, yet turn a blind-eye to "reality shows" that are far from practicing social distancing or any other type of preventive measures.
Were they tested? Are they vaccinated?
It doesnt really matter because neither tests nor vaccines prevent transmission anyway.
So if you are going to preach vaccines without practicing the other safety measures, you're quite simply, an ala carte covid freak or a hypocrite.
"Let's imagine Ukraine is a NATO member and starts these military operations."
Yea, that would indeed be quite a predicament.
"If President Putin truly does not intend war or regime change, the Secretary told Foreign Minister Lavrov then this is the time to pull back troops and heavy weaponry and engage in a serious discussion," a senior State Department official told reporters.
Whereas the previous scenario amounts to speculation, this scenario is quite different in that troops are already in place and if Russia backs up now it needs to prepare itself for further demands from NATO.
I dont think Vlad would have put himself in a position where backing-up would ever be an option. If that was the case, he would never have move troops in the first place.
Washington is not primarily concerned with Ukraine's security, but with containing Russia, Putin said.
And if that were to be true, it would be a legitimate concern. In fact, if it were true, it wouldn't be just Washington who would be concerned. It would be the whole world.
UPDATE 2/17/22
"If President Putin truly does not intend war or regime change, the Secretary told Foreign Minister Lavrov then this is the time to pull back troops and heavy weaponry and engage in a serious discussion," a senior State Department official told reporters.
Whereas the previous scenario amounts to speculation, this scenario is quite different in that troops are already in place and if Russia backs up now it needs to prepare itself for further demands from NATO.
NATO demands "proof" that Russia is withdrawing troops from Ukrainian border.
MOSCOW, Feb 17 (Reuters) - The Kremlin on Thursday rejected what it called "unfounded accusations" by the United States and NATO that it was not withdrawing its forces from near Russia's border with Ukraine, saying it takes time to wind down military exercises.
In the Age of 666/WWW, I wouldn't be surprised and it wouldn't be a coincidence if the communications technology shared one of the mark's digits.
It would appear the war rhetoric is changing. It is being broadened to include the entirety of the anglo establishment, more specifically the Washington-London connection.
“If your enemy is hungry, feed him;
if he is thirsty, give him something to drink.
In doing this, you will heap burning coals on his head.”[e]

I guess China is really serious about national security and it should come as no surprise. After all, they have the world's most advanced surveillance system.
On a side-note, the article also shows how important journalism is for a well-functioning society.
https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/europe/austria-vaccine-mandate-covid-b2004864.html
It's official in Austria. All adults are required to be vaccinated or else be fined up to €3,600 (£3,000) if they do not receive the necessary shots.
The next question becomes what happens if they dont pay it?
Meanwhile, the opposite appears to be happening in Denmark.
It really should come as no surprise. What Trump did was declare economic war with the higher tariffs.

For everything cancel culture is, childish certainly isn't excluded. It's also a tool of manipulation by those of this world. It appears even politics is involved based on the article above.
https://www1.folha.uol.com.br/colunas/helioschwartsman/2022/01/deus-e-a-covid.shtml
There are some who believe the virus originated in a lab in China. There are some who believe the virus isn't real. There are some who believe the virus is real but hyped-up.
Disease and pestilences are all a byproduct of fallen world. When man disobeyed God in the garden, he doubted God for God said "you must not eat from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, for when you eat from it you will certainly die.” As a result, man died spiritually and in time, physically.
This disease is different because if it was FABRICATED in a lab, deliberately spread, and done so with the intent of advancing a specific agenda, I would blame Satan before I blamed God. Thrown in the possibility that a "cure" was already in place and it makes the supposition that much more plausible.
As far as omniscience, omnipotence, and benevolence not being able to co-exist in a world where evil is present...
The point is moot. For if this world, which is evil, was all there was, then God wouldn't be fair. As it turns out, this world is NOT all there is, and the NEXT world is where perfection will reign.
The fact that God provides a realm where perfection exists is proof enough that everything that is, is indeed, the work of God, for "if the many died by the trespass of the one man, how much more did God’s grace and the gift that came by the grace of the one man, Jesus Christ, overflow to the many! 16 Nor can the gift of God be compared with the result of one man’s sin: The judgment followed one sin and brought condemnation, but the gift followed many trespasses and brought justification. 17 For if, by the trespass of the one man, death reigned through that one man, how much more will those who receive God’s abundant provision of grace and of the gift of righteousness reign in life through the one man, Jesus Christ!
18 Consequently, just as one trespass resulted in condemnation for all people, so also one righteous act resulted in justification and life for all people. 19 For just as through the disobedience of the one man the many were made sinners, so also through the obedience of the one man the many will be made righteous.
20 The law was brought in so that the trespass might increase. But where sin increased, grace increased all the more, 21 so that, just as sin reigned in death, so also grace might reign through righteousness to bring eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.
https://www.onlythebible.com/Poems/Footprints-in-the-Sand-Poem.html
One night I dreamed a dream.
As I was walking along the beach with my Lord.
Across the dark sky flashed scenes from my life.
For each scene, I noticed two sets of footprints in the sand,
One belonging to me and one to my Lord.
After the last scene of my life flashed before me,
I looked back at the footprints in the sand.
I noticed that at many times along the path of my life,
especially at the very lowest and saddest times,
there was only one set of footprints.
This really troubled me, so I asked the Lord about it.
"Lord, you said once I decided to follow you,
You'd walk with me all the way.
But I noticed that during the saddest and most troublesome times of my life,
there was only one set of footprints.
I don't understand why, when I needed You the most, You would leave me."
He whispered, "My precious child, I love you and will never leave you
Never, ever, during your trials and testings.
When you saw only one set of footprints,
It was then that I carried you."

He didnt do so in order to somehow make the message more mysterious or appealing since all of the subjects He touched on were spoken of before by way of the Law and/or the Prophets. There were instances where questions were asked with duplicity and examples where the answer must have already been obvious enough.
He did so in order to make people meditate upon each issue so as to receive clarity about each message. This in turn would increase people's faith, gradually, as the Kingdom is revealed to them.
Matthew 13
10 The disciples came to him and asked, “Why do you speak to the people in parables?”
11 He replied, “Because the knowledge of the secrets of the kingdom of heaven has been given to you, but not to them. 12 Whoever has will be given more, and they will have an abundance. Whoever does not have, even what they have will be taken from them. 13 This is why I speak to them in parables:
“Though seeing, they do not see;
though hearing, they do not hear or understand.
14 In them is fulfilled the prophecy of Isaiah:
“‘You will be ever hearing but never understanding;
you will be ever seeing but never perceiving.
15 For this people’s heart has become calloused;
they hardly hear with their ears,
and they have closed their eyes.
Otherwise they might see with their eyes,
hear with their ears,
understand with their hearts
and turn, and I would heal them.’[a]
16 But blessed are your eyes because they see, and your ears because they hear. 17 For truly I tell you, many prophets and righteous people longed to see what you see but did not see it, and to hear what you hear but did not hear it.
