Amen. When we read Deuteronomy 28 we can clearly see the blessings of a Nation obedient and faithful to God and the curses of a Nation rebellious towards God. We can see it all playing out before our very eyes. I am reading the War of the Jews against the Romans written by Josephus and I can clearly see how wicked and adulterous that generation really was, as Jesus Himself accused them to be! More Jews died and suffered at the hands of their fellow Jews than they did at the hands of the Romans. I can clearly see why that generation chose to reject and murder God the Son and suffered the Judgement of God for it! Is this generation better than that generation?? I don't think so!
When it come to the coming food shortages. there is no better time than now to plant some garden plants. Even if you live in a high rise apartment, you can sprout food to at least supplement your diet. if you live in a sub urban area, what's the problem with taking some of your flower beds and planting some food or herbs? Putting in a 4 x 8 raised garden bed and doing the square food gardening. You would be amazed how much food you could harvest. If you live in the country and have even a small plot of land, what are you waiting on? I'm pushing 70 and pretty much do this on my own. I have potatoes, tomatoes, garlic, onions, beets, carrots, lettuce and spinach, 4 types of beans, peppers, cucumbers and 2 types of melon. I will eat off of this all summer and preserve enough to last all winter. The excess I give away to the local homeless shelter. And I have my hens that serve me breakfast everyday. I really get tired of people and their excuses and people that just don't want to try.
Very satisfying for me to know I can still take care of myself.
You will have no gardens when Nuclear Winter immediately follows Nuclear WWIII. No Sunshine for years and fallout all over the ground. Get real Nukes are being positioned as we speak.. Klaus Schultz, Sorros, Zelensky are all part of the Baby Bris Butcher Cult.
1787 August 10. (Jefferson to Peter Carr). "Fix reason firmly in her seat, and call to her tribunal every fact, every opinion. Question with boldness even the existence of a god; because, if there be one, he must more approve the homage of reason, than that of blindfolded fear."[24]
So i guess you are saying just roll over and die? I have to eat today. If the nukes hit i hope I am at ground zero. Till then I will continue to take care of me and my family. Maybe you should too? And seriously, Did the world end on 10 Aug 1787? or did it go on. It ain't over till it's over sugar and until it is, I choose to live and find some beauty in this world. Hate and being negative doesn't solve anything. It's what got us here.
RELIGION IS WHAT GOT US TO THE STATE THE WORLD IS NOW IN. PEOPLE ARE STILL DYING FROM HIROSHIMA RADIATION. THERE WILL BE FEW PEOPLE LEFT TO REPOPULATE THE WORLD IF ANY. YOU WILL HAVE TO WRAP YOU SUPERSTITIOUS MIND AROUND BEING REINCARNATED HERE HUNDREDS OF YEARS HENCE OR ON ANOTHER PLANET THAT HAS NEVER HEARD OF SUCKING UP TO A JEW BLOOD LUST SACRIFICE GOD. THE BODY FIXATION OF CHRISTIANS IS ASTOUNDING. LIFE WILL GO ON IN THE UNIVERSE FOR BILLIONS OF YEARS AND LONG AFTER EARTH IS ABSORBED BY THE SUN AND MELTS. DOUBT IS THE BEGINNING OF WISDOM. WHAT IS GOING ON IS ESSENTIALLY A JEW VS NON-JEW WAR. THE JEWS USE THE STUPID CHRISTIANS TO KILL EACH OTHER OFF. AS ONE RABBI SAID 10,000 GENTILES ARE NOT WORTH THE HANGNAIL ON ONE JEW.

Famine is coming. RAW MEAT CANNIBALISM IS COMING. Never forget your Jesus practiced this on his disciples when he said, "Take eat this is my body......." and take drink this is my blood." Sounds like some cheap Jew Hollywood horror movie doesn't it? Your non-historical Jesus could not save himself from being a blood lust atonement for his virgin raping daddy, Gawd. No Jewish marriage even no breaking of the cup. Then he played one of the first Zombie movie parts when wing wearing angels sprung him from his grave and then they had dead bodies rising out cemeteries for an extra thrill. Keep those shirt tailed preachers living in a bigger house than you with an increased donation in the plate on Sunday. The price of your chains is increasing
You are right about one thing, there will be cannibalism, other horrific things done. They won't repent of their evil and even shake their fist at God and blaspheme Him.
What saddens me is they seem to be people just like you.
God ordered Moses to kill most of the Midianites because they were horrifically wicked, even the young. You highlight the cannibalism as a real evil, people getting what they deserve.
You sound like someone who was a victim of people like the Midianites. God is bringing justice for evil and avenging the victims ( like you). God is showing the utter hatred for unrepentant sin. But while we were yet sinners God sent His Son to suffer His wrath so by faith we will escape that wrath. What you celibate today was predicted thousands of years ago and are coming about as said. So your actually a proponent of what is happening is true and just and as done via Moses will be done again in final judgement, thus showing God is true, so who stand before Him in His perfect righteous wrath? Even you?
The gross frauds of M Snyder and his bug eyed with their thumbs up where the Sin don't shine dupes.-----------------------------------------
Theodora was the daughter of a bear tamer from the Constantinople circus that had climbed the social ladder and ended his career as a bartender at the hippodrome. Theodora used a woman's oldest weapon to follow her father up through the layers of the Roman society. From being a young and beautiful prostitute, whose services were happily sought by the aristocracy, she soon advanced to what we may call a call-girl or an escort.
Hacebolus, the young governor of Pentapolis, fell for her charm and took Theodora with him to North Africa. But she abused the governor's trust and, at the people's cost, amassed great riches. When, in her greed, she overstepped the mark and Hacebolus was overwhelmed with complaints, he threw Theodora out of his palace and confiscated all her goods. At the gates of Alexandria, she was taken in by a hermit named Eutyches, who had originated Monophysitism and was now living out his exile there. Later, Theodora would remember this fallen monk and use him to carry out her plans.
Back in Constantinople, she purposefully fought her way up to the top of society; first by becoming one of Crown Prince Justinian 1's concubines, then his favourite concubine and in 523, his wife. The 21 years older Theodora had finally managed to seduce the then 41 years old crown prince to fall in love with her and marry her. Many historians would have it that she had greater capabilities as a politician than her husband. Four years later, the couple assumed the highest position of power in the secular world: The imperial crown.
However, Empress Theodora was still not satisfied. Her burning ambition pushed her ever further towards the final step that now remained to be climbed: Her own deification. Only then would she be equal with the Caesars of old. It wasn't really that long since the Roman Emperors were automatically deified and received a place of worship in the temple halls. But Christianity had brought an end to this custom. And it was precisely on this point that the biblically recognised doctrine of reincarnation provided a stumbling block: For how could a woman enter eternity as a goddess when everyone was supposed to be reborn? What could prevent the errant empress from being reborn as a completely normal person - even as a simple beggar? Theodora knew that as long as reincarnation was anchored fast in Christian consciousness, the people would never accept her as a goddess. And so, the doctrine of reincarnation had to be completely blotted out.
Theodora selected the Monophysitist monks, who were soon to be pardoned from their excommunications, as her useful helpers. They were to ensure that every trace of reincarnation disappeared completely from all church documents. You might think - and rightfully so - that such a request wouldn't be possible on a practical level alone. But Theodora had spread her own network of agents over the entire empire and made sure that her preferred monks little by little took over the leadership of the Church. And the entire power of the Byzantine Empire was at her service, for Justinian had already become her willing tool.
In order to accomplish her plans, Theodora first had to bring the Western Church under her control. Flavius Belisarius' armies helped her in this by securing Byzantine influence in Rome and enabling Theodora's perfidy of deposing the Pope. One of the empress' favourites then assumed the position.
After she had thus dispensed with the opposition of the Western Church, Theodora concentrated once again on Constantinople and, with the help of another puppet, Patriarch Mennas, she convened the Synod of the Eastern Church of Constantinople in 543. This council revoked the condemnation of Monophysitism as well as the affirmation of reincarnation, which was the first deathblow to this doctrine. The synod, however, was not binding for the almost 3,000 bishops spread across the Empire. And so, a council was called to sanction the decisions. Invitations were sent to all bishops, but they were written so that one could hope that none of the bishops of the Western Church would participate. Pope Virgilius, Theodora's accomplice, condemned the letters in the harshest terms and thereby strengthened the resolve of many bishops to not attend.
The 87 years old Empress Theodora died of what modern researchers believe to be a cancer-like disease in 548 and the last thing she accomplished was to prevent her husband from implementing a large-scale persecution of the Egyptian Monophysites.
In the middle of the 500s, a capital punishment was introduced for 'pagans' and 'heretics'. Justinian destroyed everything that went against the orthodox doctrines and he introduced the tradition of burning heretics at the stake. The emperor also called the Council of Constantinople in 553 without consulting the Pope. His deceased wife had come from a poor background and worked her way up through the system. When she became empress, she had five hundred of her former colleagues tortured and executed as part of a plan to show the imperial couple's new high morals against sinful and secular activities. Since she believed that 'all personal suffering comes as a consequence of reincarnation', she put everything into having it abolished, because she was sure that she would be cleared of all sin when this doctrine was declared as 'heretical'. By then, she had probably given up the attempt to become deified, so the argumentation to end the reincarnation doctrines had to be altered. Thus, it was to honor his wife's last wish that Justinian vetoed reincarnation at the council. The imperial couple had also long wanted to deprive the Pope of his power as the top leader of Christendom. As a consequence, only 10 of the 165 bishops that attended the synod came from the western part of the empire and therefore were under the influence of Rome. The others boycotted the meeting. The eastern bishops can almost be described as 'feudal vassals' that had no ability to resist the pressure that the emperor exposed them to. Therefore, one cannot say that Christianity has ever abolished the doctrine of reincarnation in a formally correct and democratic way.
The Church also removed all books - and destroyed many documents and records - that disputed the radical changes in Christian doctrines. Many of the scriptures that the councils rejected, however, found their way to the Apocrypha, which the Church now claims has 'a dubious origin'. Some of the material was discarded for obvious reasons. But other apocryphal writings were rejected simply because they disputed 'the official Church version of Jesus' life'. These contrasting details give a very different picture of Jesus than the one that we find in the official version of the Bible.
The doctrine of reincarnation was thus banished because it gives power and authority to the people. Reincarnation contradicted the aspirations of a few bishops and deacons, who felt they alone should dispense the truth to the multitudes. This authoritarian strangle-hold is strengthened by the doctrine of 'one chance - one life', because a person that chose to think for themselves - and thereby dismissed the authority of the hierarchy - would not get another chance to put things right if they chose wrongly. The position of the hierarchy is that eternal damnation without parole would be the irrevocable fate of those that dared question the clerical hierarchy's authority.
Again Joe you prove scripture to be true. Constantine was a false believer, that has contaminated the church and the truth. I really appreciate you brought out the history of false believers, Jesus said would come. Again you are proving Jesus had supernatural power to know the future and all this is playing out as he said it would
You are what they call a self righteous unctuous hypocrite. A mere baby soul with not too many incarnations to your credit. You believe what your preacher poured into your uneducated grey matter and operate out of fear of your imaginary GAWD. There are about 40,000denominations/brands of Christinsanity and all believe they are right. But they cannot demonstrate any of the gifts that come with such a belief. I suggest you demonstrate these on video for all to see. And then cast out some god created demons and send them into pigs in a land where pork is considered unclean. But don't forget to pay the farmer. LOL Just how many Brownie Points have you collected from GAWD who if it exists is an Atheist. LOL
I really do feel sorry for you and will continue to pray for you, because you never really directly respond to anyone or anything someone has said, you just keep repeating the same old mantras over and over again, the same talking points because that's all you know. What you label others is really a reflection of who you are down deep inside. You hate God, you hate life and you hate yourself, so the only way to vent that hate is to put it on others, where you perceive all your hurt came from, the church. So you are not really in control, it's the hate and lies that drive you. If as you have said, you experienced the Kundalini Spirit, it's demonic a spirit that is driven by hate and lies.
Out of the heart the mouth speaks, that is a universal truth that transcends all religions, it's one of those universal truths, like water is wet and fire is hot.
Jesus said there would be false believers (you are right about that) again you are proving in your rants that Jesus had supernatural knowledge of the future and what it would look like. Yes there are hypocrites in the church that need to repent. In fact we all are so, at least some extent, even you. So the only hope is in God's grace for all of us in Christ. For what you judge others for and rightly so, you are guilty too and are under God's wrath as well.
You are a clueless hypocrite who ignores history. You are of the same group of people who once believed the earth is the center of the universe and erected Inquisitions to murder those who disputed your nonsense and virtue signaling. You have the belief that blood sacrifice forgives sins. There are no sins only injustices. karma is the enforcer and it is mathematical. You are the only judge of yourself.
Were you not the one who said there were 100's of denominations that believed many different things in Christendom, but now you want to lump all of Christendom into a belief and actions that are clearly not Biblical from one so called denomination. So you play with the facts and your own contradictions to make a point, can't have it both ways. This is exactly what the Serpent did in the garden to Eve.
They all suck up to Jew Jesus and each gravitates to the denomination that reflects his own illusions of how to explain his life. Ah, Adam and Eve. LOL You obviously have never eaten from the tree of knowledge. Those who don't are stupid as you demonstrate. "Are you washed in the BLOOD?" Let's see whose girls their sons have sex with to make more people??? Hmmmmm?
Hey Daniel, Don't waste your time with "Joe Smith"...it is a demonic possessed AI. We will be seeing a lot of these on the Christian based blogs, articles, etc comment sectjons.
Yes, I fully understand. He is here paying to be on the sight for the sole purpose of disrupting everything, finding weak Christians to get them to doubt. (the classical big bully on campus).
Generally you right to ignore him.
I've been a cop for 25 years and counseling almost that long. I know Joe more than he realizes, in fact I'm and some other men are dealing with a young man just like Joe now.
Ignoring him is a good strategy, but I would not call it a waist of time. I've hit him often at first to get a better feel for him, the more he talks the more he exposes himself, I want that.
But as we go forward I will take the opportunities to confront his hypocrisy from time to time hopefully as the Spirit leads.
I'm very use to dealing with the crazies like him.
But good thought, good word CG it can get addicting and unbalanced, I truly appreciate the input!
Pray in your closet and with the light out. Amen (Amen Ra Egyptian god) Pass the plate. Tax free and un-American and unsupportive of your police and firemen when GAWD strikes churches with lightening and tornados and Jesus does not turn up with his fire brigade hat on. LOL
Beautiful. The child raping and murdering Moses would be so proud of ol Jesus and indeed Jesus glorified Moses in the Transfiguration. Moses actions Numbers Chapter 31, Vs 15 on..
This is the Lord's doing, God's Judgement on earth, even America.
"Judgement begins with the house of the Lord." (Separating the wheat from the chaff and tares).
"I tell you that He will bring about justice for them quickly. However, when the Son of Man comes, will He find (the) faith on the earth?”
Psalms,
He causes the vapors to ascend from the ends of the earth; Who makes lightnings for the rain, Who brings forth the wind from His treasuries.
Jeremiah,
“Behold, the storm of the Lord has gone forth in wrath, Even a whirling tempest; It will swirl down on the head of the wicked.
Matthew,
The men were amazed, and said, “What kind of a man is this, that even the winds and the sea obey Him?”
Amen. When we read Deuteronomy 28 we can clearly see the blessings of a Nation obedient and faithful to God and the curses of a Nation rebellious towards God. We can see it all playing out before our very eyes. I am reading the War of the Jews against the Romans written by Josephus and I can clearly see how wicked and adulterous that generation really was, as Jesus Himself accused them to be! More Jews died and suffered at the hands of their fellow Jews than they did at the hands of the Romans. I can clearly see why that generation chose to reject and murder God the Son and suffered the Judgement of God for it! Is this generation better than that generation?? I don't think so!

They all suck up to Jew Jesus and each gravitates to the denomination that reflects his own illusions of how to explain his life. Ah, Adam and Eve. LOL You obviously have never eaten from the tree of knowledge. Those who don't are stupid as you demonstrate. "Are you washed in the BLOOD?" Let's see whose girls their sons have sex with to make more people??? Hmmmmm?
As John Galt said, "Get out of my way."
Hey Daniel, Don't waste your time with "Joe Smith"...it is a demonic possessed AI. We will be seeing a lot of these on the Christian based blogs, articles, etc comment sectjons.

Yes, I fully understand. He is here paying to be on the sight for the sole purpose of disrupting everything, finding weak Christians to get them to doubt. (the classical big bully on campus).
Generally you right to ignore him.
I've been a cop for 25 years and counseling almost that long. I know Joe more than he realizes, in fact I'm and some other men are dealing with a young man just like Joe now.
Ignoring him is a good strategy, but I would not call it a waist of time. I've hit him often at first to get a better feel for him, the more he talks the more he exposes himself, I want that.
But as we go forward I will take the opportunities to confront his hypocrisy from time to time hopefully as the Spirit leads.
I'm very use to dealing with the crazies like him.
But good thought, good word CG it can get addicting and unbalanced, I truly appreciate the input!
Pray in your closet and with the light out. Amen (Amen Ra Egyptian god) Pass the plate. Tax free and un-American and unsupportive of your police and firemen when GAWD strikes churches with lightening and tornados and Jesus does not turn up with his fire brigade hat on. LOL
Beautiful. The child raping and murdering Moses would be so proud of ol Jesus and indeed Jesus glorified Moses in the Transfiguration. Moses actions Numbers Chapter 31, Vs 15 on..
This is men's doing. Not God's. He lets us make our own mistakes and history has proven that we manage to overcome them time and time again.
