This chapter is actually pretty important in the Pentateuch, despite most of the laws of Moses actually being a stumbling block for Jesus (see Ezekiel 20:25, also 2 Corinthians 3:7). Yet, God didn’t want His followers to go by the letter of the law codes. For even though the laws of the lands in this world are supposed to honor Jesus, instead, the heads of state usually try and trip Him up 🙄🙄🙄🙄🤦🏼♂️🤦🏼♂️🤦🏼♂️🤦🏼♂️ and starting in ten days (with possibly no end until Jesus comes back many years from now, or at least seven years from today, however the last of the unreached people groups in this world accept Jesus), we’re going to see a lot of nonsensical talk about many things that don’t need to be enforced. I want to be wrong in this, but I don’t think I can be, for they’ve already started building labor camps in record numbers down in Texas for all those who, in Trump’s view, are unworthy to live here. But this wouldn’t have happened if the churches in the U.S. had only decided to follow God’s benevolence for others throughout their lives. Still, this chapter is found in page 68 of my NKJV Bible, page 88 of my NASB Bible (Old Testament), pages 144-145 of my VOICE copy, and pages 142-143 of my Amplified Bible (Classic Edition) copy.
I don’t think I can say enough about how hateful the U.S. has been for, what, nearly ten years, now? Indeed, I believe God spoke to me that this nation’s under His wrath ten years ago at the end of next month. And I’m seeing many reasons why I shouldn’t have children in this country or perhaps even get engaged to a Christian lady born around the early-mid 90s, for it’s too expensive here, and the work culture in like every building is toxic. But I have good news for my own team: we did 17 good secret shops in a row at Fry’s (this is what happens when someone pretends to be a customer there and reviews us all like critics at a restaurant — don’t accuse me of spilling the beans, Fry’s did that first, for I’ve seen videos of it on YouTube before), and now, we’re trying to find a good day for a pizza party! I pray I can make it to that party even if I’m not scheduled to work that day/night 😋🍕🥤 I didn’t actually think I’d make it this long without a single bad secret shop at my store; this is a big accomplishment for me and my team! I do pray salvation for those willing to accept and follow Jesus there, though.
And speaking of foul play at work, I noticed five small but deadly blood stains on the floor at my store one night earlier this week — I had to clean them all, and I didn’t know I needed to wear latex gloves every time I see blood on the ground, or some other fluid with a deadly pathogen (something in one’s body that can kill you just by touching it) — I pray I don’t make that same mistake twice 🤢🤢🤢🤢🤢🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮 I think the customer who did this just picked at themselves too much, but this still pales in comparison to a freak accident that happened at my store last September because a customer didn’t have the right shoes on, not to mention that management royally messed up with my maintenance protocol. But after a few weeks, I got word by a supervisor that the customer who had fallen and lost a lot of blood so that she had to be taken to a hospital on a stretcher was doing so much better 😌😌😌😌😌😌😌😌😌 I was afraid she was going to die, honestly 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭 I don’t want that to happen to anyone, no matter where the workplace is 💔💔💔💔💔💔💔💔💔💔 I mean, there’s a reason this chapter is in the Scriptures: blood can carry all sorts of pathogens, even in raw meat, and drinking any blood, even of a chicken, is very deadly 😱😱😱😱😱😱 it can even carry STDs. If that happens, you can’t give blood, and that’ll put your life in jeopardy 😨😨😨😨😨😨😨😨😨 save sexual stuff for marriage, ladies and gentlemen.
The next several chapters deal with everyday life, and I’ll cover them one by one, but for now, I’ll see you in the next one.
