After three weeks of waiting to write this down, I can say I’ve had good feedback from all those who read this, however few of you chose to do so 😄😅 one friend says, as I can put it, “Atheism disguised as Christianity? Yikes 😨😨😨😨” — I don’t know how much momentum I have concerning this but she’s right… but I still have a book called Barefoot Tribe by Palmer Chinchen, and I want to read it when I’m done with two others (one I’ve actually read before). It’s very tempting for me to play hardball with this sort of thing in terms of being people-centered, though, for then I’ll forget to rely on Jesus, and I don’t want that. But I don’t want to hang around with even one of the MAGA freaks who claim to support this, either… it’s all really confusing. My only reasoning about this passage and the dilemma of looking like a worshiper of left-wing extremism, a remark I’ve gotten before (though not often), I don’t really know, I guess I’ll have to keep a low profile about it… but I’m publishing this at roughly 10 a.m., Arizona time, so I guess the low profile thing is impossible at this point. But one thing I remembered recently (probably last night, I don’t remember) was that following the words of 1 Corinthians 10:32 where it says not to give offence to anyone was one way I could love my neighbour. Indeed, one maintenance man’s from Morocco, and I’m not sure what kind of Muslim content he practices, but I hope to lead him to Jesus without offending him away from God, just as Paul had written in chapter 8 of the above letter that introducing someone to godly stuff prematurely (if they don’t know it’s good and they’ve likely had a hard time with it growing up) isn’t worth it (see verses 9-12).
I also don’t want any kind of deportations happening, and they usually go after the wrong guys for this, so I pray against all that 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼 for if someone wants to stay in the U.S., I believe he/she should have an opportunity to feel safe from the violence I imagine they fled from, but Satan is stirring the churches to chase them away, to the point that I don’t even want to be here, so that if I leave there will be trouble, and if I stay there will be double the pain. Please tell me at least a couple of you understood that reference… I know I don’t want Russian aggression against anyone, but knowing the evil one has subjugated many people here to this, I can’t make many more friends here, even if more people are born and then become Christian. I actually think Jesus has never been more ashamed of the U.S. than He’d ever been, given the circumstances, including that I can’t mention to really anyone else even at church the problems those in power are creating, seeing that most of the Valley loves them, not to mention half the other metro areas in the U.S., in general. Even those who never planned for this don’t seem to care… I think Jesus has given this country up to an atheism-enforcing mindset. So at this point, the only way He’ll really receive glory is that this nation is… replaced, given the abundant lack of forgiveness that’s always happened.
What are we to do when the government fights back, pretending to be Christian once again? For they’ll hunt down and eliminate those who follow Jesus for real, since they love to weaponize Romans 13:1-5. Yet people would say Isaiah 10:1-2, a Scripture that’s long been overlooked in too many circles, is more weaponized than anything. They’d even mention that Putin’s a good leader and that Zelenskyy, though he’s indeed quite corrupt, can [insert highly suggestive comment here]. These men have attacked the Leviticus 19 passage many of them claim to love. I think they want to make unforgiveness mandatory. They also know law and order doesn’t really work, for too often, the laws in many lands, on top of what had already been put in place on or before 1980, have been apathetic towards the Gospel. Yet they complain abortion is worse than the death penalty, but I know they don’t want to give that up here. I think both should be eliminated, but it’s too bad that without abortion being legal, there’s an even higher infant/child mortality rate here. I think the U.S. worships the spirit of death, especially around Halloween 🎃🦇🦂🕷🕸😓🤦🏼♂️ and that’s six months away.
So the only conclusion is, despite the fact that more and more people want to enforce unforgiveness, love anyway. At least we’ll go out in a blaze of glory and to be welcomed to Heaven like heroes, and that’s not just because 1 Peter 3:17 says what it says. If you have any questions about this, you can either e-mail me at ron.outland4727@gmail.com or pray to God that someone much smarter than me can answer you here. You can also type something in the comments a time when you’ve been wronged, hurt, or left for dead by an unforgiving human being, if you wish 😅 anyway, it’s like 10:20 a.m., now, so I need to publish this. Later!
