Yes, God created man with free will. He knew that man would choose to disobey, and He planned for makind's salvation before creation.

1 Peter 1:18-21 "Forasmuch as ye know that ye were not redeemed with corruptible things, as silver and gold, from your vain conversation received by tradition from your fathers; (19) But with the precious blood of Christ, as of a lamb without blemish and without spot: (20) Who verily was foreordained before the foundation of the world, but was manifest in these last times for you, (21) Who by him do believe in God, that raised him up from the dead, and gave him glory; that your faith and hope might be in God."

The instances of severe judgement that we see in the Bible are a warning to us that God's judgement is not to be trifled with. We are warned not to take sin lightly.

1 Corinthians 10:5-11 "But with many of them God was not well pleased: for they were overthrown in the wilderness. (6) Now these things were our examples, to the intent we should not lust after evil things, as they also lusted. (7) Neither be ye idolaters, as were some of them; as it is written, The people sat down to eat and drink, and rose up to play. (8) Neither let us commit fornication, as some of them committed, and fell in one day three and twenty thousand. (9) Neither let us tempt Christ, as some of them also tempted, and were destroyed of serpents. (10) Neither murmur ye, as some of them also murmured, and were destroyed of the destroyer. (11) Now all these things happened unto them for ensamples [examples]: and they are written for our admonition, upon whom the ends of the world are come."

The God of the Bible is not stupid or ignorant. He is all-knowing.

He is not weak. He is all powerful.

He is your Creator. He gave you life. He deserves your praise, not mockery.

He wants you to live forever with Him and has provided the means for you to do so. Repent (have a change of mind) and trust in His Son Jesus Christ. Believe that He died on the cross for your sins and that He rose again from the dead.

Believe before it is too late, because you will stand before Him one day.

Romans 14:11-12 "For it is written, As I live, saith the Lord, every knee shall bow to me, and every tongue shall confess to God. (12) So then every one of us shall give account of himself to God."

Thanks for this post. This is very interesting.

Cursory searches brought me to the house of Visconti, whose Latin motto is translated on Wikipedia as "I will not violate the customs of the serpent".

I didn't see an explanation of why they chose the symbol or motto.

Does anyone have more info on the history of this motto?

People who immigrate to America legally have to pass a citizenship test. For that test, they are taught that there are only two obligations for very citizen: voting and jury duty. I am a natural born citizen, so I didn't have to take that test. But I still feel an obligation as a citizen to vote in every election, even if I feel like my vote doesn't count sometimes.

I'm not sure how this response relates to my post, but since you asked: Joseph waited until after Jesus was born. Note that the fulfillment of the prophecy required a virgin to both conceive and give birth:

Matthew 1:22-25 Now all this was done, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken of the Lord by the prophet, saying, (23) Behold, a virgin shall be with child, and shall bring forth a son, and they shall call his name Emmanuel, which being interpreted is, God with us. (24) Then Joseph being raised from sleep did as the angel of the Lord had bidden him, and took unto him his wife: (25) And knew her not till she had brought forth her firstborn son: and he called his name JESUS.

Many people have assumed that Jesus' statement here only applies to Jews, since He was addressing Jews here.

But the rest of the New Testament reveals that all of mankind is born in sin under the dominion of Satan. To move from Satan's kingdom to God's kingdom, we must be born again (spiritually) by believing in Jesus Christ as our Savior and Lord. We must believe that He died on the cross for our sins and that He rose again from the dead.

Paul, writing to Gentile Ephesians, used the word "we" to indicate that he (a Jew) was born in the same condition as them:

Ephesians 2:1-9 "And you hath he quickened [made alive], who were dead in trespasses and sins; (2) Wherein in time past ye walked according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air, the spirit that now worketh in the children of disobedience: (3) Among whom also we all had our conversation [lifestyle] in times past in the lusts of our flesh, fulfilling the desires of the flesh and of the mind; and were by nature the children of wrath, even as others.

(4) But God, who is rich in mercy, for his great love wherewith he loved us, (5) Even when we were dead in sins, hath quickened us [made us alive] together with Christ, (by grace ye are saved;) (6) And hath raised us up together, and made us sit together in heavenly places in Christ Jesus: (7) That in the ages to come he might shew the exceeding riches of his grace in his kindness toward us through Christ Jesus.

(8) For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: (9) Not of works, lest any man should boast."

There are certain aspects of Q's post that I find very interesting and informative, but in the end, I don't think Q is good.

Probably the thing is the biggest red flag for me is "Military is the only way." On the contrary, the U.S. Military has been part of the NWO establishment for many decades. True patriots should not be calling for things like military tribunals, etc.

That's what makes me think Q was a harmful psy op - it got patriotic Americans to clamor for what would essentially be a military dictatorship. Scary stuff, IMO. I think we should all be pushing for a return to strict Constitutionalism, not a military take-over.

(And historically, what institutions have a history of replacing elected governments with military dictatorships...?)

Personally, I wouldn't be totally surprised if it turned out that these sites were set up and funded by a foreign government, say Russia. It seems like it could be a way to accommodate pro-Russia propaganda, for example, and sow seeds of division among Americans. But... I hope these sites are actually setup and funded by free-speech loving American patriots.

Do the "rods of God" qualify as hypersonic weapons? If so, this article claims the U.S. has them and possibly used them to damage the Kerch bridge (link borrowed from the GizaDeathStar blog):

https://americanmediaperiscope.com/the-rods-of-god-strike-the-kerch-bridge/

"In the 1990s, the U.S. DoD launched a black budget program called 'Project Thor' to install such a weapon in space. The United States developed the 'kinetic bombardment' system without carrying any explosive payload. The 'Rods of God,' as the Thor system is mythically referred to, fires tungsten steel 'telephone poles' at hypersonic speeds from orbit."

Like everything I read on the internet, I have no idea if this info is reliable.

Check out the description of Behemoth in Job chapter 40. I believe this was a dinosaur.

What if this is the next "big reveal"? Are you ready?

2 Thessalonians 2:7-12 "For the mystery of iniquity doth already work: only he who now letteth [or, "restrains"] will let [restrain], until he be taken out of the way. (8) And then shall that Wicked be revealed, whom the Lord shall consume with the spirit of his mouth, and shall destroy with the brightness of his coming (9) Even him, whose coming is after the working of Satan with all power and signs and lying wonders, (10) And with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish; because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved (11) And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie: (12) That they all might be damned who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness."

Not trying to be harsh, but just want to warn you.

Some other reasons, which are not mutually exclusive:

  1. As a Christian, I believe Satan is ultimately behind it, because he continually opposes God's intent for man.

  2. I believe some groups are actively pursuing that old Communist agenda to destabilize and destroy America (& the rest of Western Civ) from within.

  3. Pharma and hospitals are making BIG money off of it.

A humorous but sad take on this from J.P. Sears: https://youtu.be/j7F2-So0em8

Also, a recent Planned Parenthood ad for puberty blockers and other drugs: https://youtu.be/k8eQXk_wv3s

Another eye-opener for me was learning from Robert Kennedy Jr's book "The Real Anthony Fauci" about all the pharmaceuticals that male homosexuals take. Big Pharma gets them on both ends: uppers & stuff to fuel sex with multiple partners in a given night, plus "HIV/AIDS" drugs later on.

The Big Pharma lobbying angle also explains why certain "conservative" politicians cave on these issues instead of supporting laws that would protect children.

I completely agree that Satan is an angel and not a man.

Note, though, that the Scriptures sometimes speak of angels using terms like "man":

Daniel 9:21 "Yea, whiles I was speaking in prayer, even the man Gabriel, whom I had seen in the vision at the beginning, being caused to fly swiftly, touched me about the time of the evening oblation..."

Luke 1:26 "And in the sixth month the angel Gabriel was sent from God unto a city of Galilee, named Nazareth.."

I still believe that Satan is this Lucifer/King of Babylon in Isaiah 14 who exalted himself against God and was cast down from heaven, just is written about Satan in Revelation 12:7-17.

However, let me for a moment concede that Isaiah 14 is about a king of Babylon referred to as Lucifer and this text doesn't explicitly mention Satan.

Let me edit my original reply as follows, and the point is still the same:

"I find a lot of content online appears to be a modern effort to 'rehabilitate' Satan. Stuff like this is conditioning the world to accept a future Satanic 'savior' and worship the dragon at some point in the future."

I believe that what is written in the "proverb against the king of Babylon" in Isaiah 14 is a prophetic reference to Satan.

Other prophetic writings sometimes refer to angels or demons as princes of geographic regions (see the reference to the prince of Persia in Daniel 10:13).

Isaiah 14 describes this king of Babylon / Lucifer ("light-bearer") falling from heaven after rebelling against God.

Paul says that Satan is transformed into an angel of light, i.e., he appears as a light-bearer or a "lucifer"(2 Corinthians 11:14). Jesus says that He saw Satan fall from heaven like lightning (Like 10:18), just as the proverbial king of Babylon / Lucifer falls from heaven in Isaiah 14.

In a similar vein, I believe that the lamentation upon the king of Tyrus in Ezekiel 28:12-19 also describes Satan because of the language used there ("...thou hast been in Eden the garden of God ...thou art the anointed cherub that covereth...").

There's no question my position ultimately depends on faith, in that I believe that the Bible is true. But, I don't think it is a blind faith. In the Bible, multiple authors reference each other and affirm that the writings of earlier authors are true. This makes the Bible like an interwoven tapestry of multiple authors which affirms the claim of divine inspiration. In the cases of Joseph Smith and Muhammad, they added large portions of allegedly inspired writing, but no contemporary writers were affirming this inspiration. And, their writing does not "mesh" with the previous writings the way the New Testament meshes with the Old Testament writings. So to me, it is clear that Joseph Smith and Muhammad were false prophets.

I don't believe that the "oldest is best." I believe that Moses was inspired by God when he wrote Genesis ("All Scripture is given by inspiration of God", 2 Timothy 3:16). Therefore, Genesis is correct, even if it was written later than the Sumerian texts.

In my opinion, the whole Sumerian version with Enil and Enki is an old lie from Satan to make Satan look like the he's the good guy helping mankind. I find a lot of content online appears to be a modern effort to "rehabilitate" Satan/Lucifer. Stuff like this is conditioning the world to accept a future Luciferian "savior" and worship the dragon at some point in the future.
