Anti-Anti's Modern Prosperendum

If only we could get salvation doctrine correct among ourselves and then move on to separation - treating Worldlings circumspectly with gentleness and wisdom and treating Christians with teaching, rebukes, exhortations, encouragements, reproofs, shunning (not as enemies, but as siblings in Christ), then we would not be confused about who is a Christian and what we should do. Love the siblings in everything and do loving action to your enemies, but know who your enemies are, according to the Scriptures, and don't be their friends, which is enmity with God (according to what God told us by that Special Book He wrote to us). God is knowable by His Special Spirit and by His Holy Book, but the World obfuscates Him, His words, His desires and His actions with pseudochrist look-alikes.  Don't believe them, believe Him, comparing preaching with Scripture like the noble Bereans did. Believing 1 Corinthians 15:3b-8 results in doing Romans 10:9a, 10b, 13 for salvation and Romans 10:9b, 10...

Only accept soft language when it comes from speech that comes from and is loaded with truth.  Even a hard voice from true intention is useful, but beware the easily performed soft talk that comes from and is loaded with deceit!  Their viciousness is hidden, but the strength of the truth is only unpleasant to the ear of the person who feels the pain of fear in their attempt to hide from the truth.

Let the child deal with problems of different types simultaneously and of different degrees sequentially.

Consider how God's Law kept God's people until the Holy Spirit could be sent to us after the New Covenant was made between God and Humanity.  In the modern secular World, however, extreme gobs of laws are needed on every front, because people can't use love and conscience to guide us when they don't have a new nature and the leadership of Christ and the Holy Spirit helping us as we Christians do, and we enjoy it greatly!  All those laws that structure the World can be compared with no written ordinance for Christians.  The World wants to make its own version of love to compensate, but John Lennon and the rest just couldn't get an adequate version in, because no love compares with Christ's love. The Law of God was, indeed, needed as nursemaid until humans could come in under the New Covenant, but now the Holy Spirit and the new nature of the Scripture-believing person who has confessed Master Jesus does not need the thousands upon thousands of laws the secular Wo...

Criminal rights - citizen's over reactions to government seeming stupidity, which is obstinacy. When smart people in powerful positions of leadership obstinately seem stupid in their decisions, their cause is sometimes to get a screen to do the opposite when the people cry out for it.  For example, we can imagine more totalitarianism arising from governmental decisions to release criminals and to refuse to arrest them and to purposely mislabel looting and theft, and things like that.  The idea is that after the people have had just about enough of the criminal activity, they will cry out for a firmer hand - and then the sneaking leaders will give entirely too much of what the whole country seemed to cry out for, which will make a cover for the new normal, always referring back to when the country wanted criminals to have a firm hand and no talk of rights. While this phase over overloading the opposite is happening, secondary causes are often woven in, and the leaders, themselv...

The Bible describes the local congregation as having an Overseer (also called a Bishop), which I take to be an administrator and expediter of the whole.  One aspect of meetings is that any of the Christians attending who have something to speak forth on behalf of God (called Prophets) should stand and deliver it to the whole congregation in an orderly manner, that is, not interrupting each other and giving way in a loving way so others can speak.  Elders are older Christians who handle various problems and organize subcommittees, like those who made sure all the qualifying widows got their share of support from the congregation; note that they were spiritual, though their job seems basically mundane; perhaps it was because daily maintenance of the qualifying widows took a particular love.  And congregations seem to have been places where the Christians could meet each other on a more or less equal footing, which is in stark relief and great contrast with the hierarchical ...

Do you think that the application of goodness to individuals in a group hardens that group to evil? For instance, has the profession of soldiering been somewhat (more than natural) hardened against the corruption of evil by the generations of preaching and preaching's consequent action that 1) enemies should be treated with goodness in general, and 2) the authority with the sword should be obeyed, because he is God's servant to reward righteousness and punish evildoers? Or is the only useful effect applied to those Christians who preach and believe the preaching to do it, for instance, to respect the soldier or police officer with an expectation that they will do right? Are evil spirits that would affect the Worldlings in those positions or groups affected by the Christians' infusing of righteous action into those groups and positions, such that the groups are not as affected by those evil spirits as they would be without the Christians' acts, or do only we Christians b...

Why Police Should Radically Change Questioning Protocol -OR- The Logic of Country-Wide Police Conspiracy Against the Law at a Fundamental Level 1. Pretending authority to compel answers damages law which fundamentally acquiesces to a specific list of unalienable rights, including freedom over personal speech. 2. Relying on such damage to the law is incompetence in serving the law. 3. Having rooms designed into police buildings for the specific purpose of performing such questioning is evidence of a conspiracy among all police organizations to commit this damage to the law. 4. Therefore, forgoing competent work, the police as a whole have conspired to pit themselves against the functioning of the law.

The rich use certain laws to dominate societies.  Those laws should be highly advertised and normalized by the creation of new, similar laws attached to situations the masses deal with (instead of being attached only to special circumstances for large corporations or other places to be determined upon a review of the law), or they should be entirely purged, to the effect that the rich cannot dominate societies without the probability of the masses countering it.  The final disposition of any such law should be based on its morality as defined by YHWH and His famous Son Jesus the Messiah.

Redefining actions into words allows lies to seem like truth.  For instance, this happens when someone says they don't endorse something, even as they host it and make fliers for it and otherwise advertise it.  It's basic hypocrisy, but it's also the wickedness of magic, where reality, itself, is made to seem different than it is for the purpose of tempting to sin; that is, when that endorsement is to a temptation to sin.  All such deception is wicked, and God sees. Another example is when lies are used to dominate someone over a long period of time, then the dominator speaks to the dominated about using lies to dominate someone else.  If the dominated doesn't immediately excoriate the dominator for his lies, then he loses the opportunity to ever say he was tricked into being dominated. A main method of ensourcelling magic is to change definitions, especially from an action to a description or a passive state or to a heart-based, and therefore unable to be proven, co...

Attempting glory, you've emptied yourself of light; your light is darkness. Making your face appear to shine with willpower, you're deceived; you despise any lack of lies. Pretending emotional solvency imagines your mask is in place, but you are a hypocrite; you burnt your love. Confess Master Jesus, believing His death is for our sins Just like the Bible said He was buried and God raised Him again On the third day, just like the Bible said He was seen again He will enliven you again when you believe and confess Him. This is life. This is light. This is love. He is life. He is light. He is the only love and the only Source of it.

The lackluster ability of the police, due largely to their rigid formalism on the side of fear and their lack of forms that would help them do their duty, works against justice and makes righteousness seem stupid in the steely sight of the wicked World.  The police need to go after crooks, regardless of petulant, mocking rules which they set for themselves (or those which are set for them by petulant, mocking legislators, glad-handing chiefs and conspiring egomaniacal puppeteer judges and prosecutors).  Going after crooks, the useful police officer abrogates attempted control over what top law has already regarded as beyond its purview and forgoes questioning of the suspect altogether and looks for clues instead of mealy-mouthed trickery in the silly hope of the suspect giving himself away.  Plea deals are the least useful thing to the officer of justly executed law, and humility is seen as strength.  Why, oh why, would such an upstanding citizen-officer pay the slig...

Concerning freewill or freedom of choice, I can't find its reference in the Bible to salvation, though I've heard sermonizing about such a connection, which says that if God didn't give me freedom to choose Him, then I'd have reason to complain that He makes me get saved or makes me to not get saved.  But the Bible doesn't say that we choose Him, but He chooses us when He calls us (along with predestinating us) who are being saved.  So, I think some controversy and debate occurred in the past about this freedom of choice, but I don't see any basis for it in the Bible.  In fact, I see the opposite concept, that God calls us and we simply don't refuse Him, and that Jesus didn't lose any whom the Father gave to Him.

There is a difference between me having my own thoughts and feelings and me communicating my own thoughts and feelings to you through my intonation. You might say that I should modulate my intonation better to hide my thoughts and feelings in order to make it clear that I am not intending to communicate them when they are negative. I say that you should learn to ask the question of whether or not I am intending to convey negativity, not only because it will help you regulate your own feelings, but also so you can base your own thoughts on better information, whether I intend the communication or not, which will give you basis for different conclusions, insofar as you believe that you should base your next thought or feeling on what you think I intend to communicate with you (that is, whether you are going along with a certain prescribed formula of conversation with me at this time). Holding back my natural reactions is different from not intending communication.  Like holding in a ...

"..implacable, unmerciful.."; "..even their women change.." The corruption of the sinful body makes the female not more sinful but more terrible when she sins, because it corrupts a greater potential for the insight that comes from a deeper soulish reality than men naturally enjoy.  Likewise, the bullish action he can affect through his numbness to those same soulish traits, which are so beautiful in women and children, is stolen by the feminization of the male.  In Christ, there is not male and female, but both can be saved by the same gospel; however, we are still male and female, with all the attendant realities which exist whether or not we care to cultivate them or whether or not we attempt to invert them, knowing them so precisely to do so, like a greedy and insolent thief who sees what the other has and desires it only because the other has it. Adam was told directly by God, yet sinned on purpose and with full knowledge.  Eve was not told by God directly, but...

The conspicuous absence of the gospel in the many places the Church interacts with the World to help it demeans Christ's salvation doctrine by relegating it to the great many things that seem useless to help the World.  Why isn't knowledge of salvation included with free lunches and medical care?  It could be written on large banners on the wall or lunch trays so it doesn't seem to be "preachy".. Gasp!  WHY?! Why try to get in to places that you believe would exclude you for telling it?  Isn't the Church meant to interact with the World foremost by telling Worldlings how to be saved so that some of them might become siblings in Christ?  Is the love of giving a sandwich or the privilege of being allowed around a group of Worldlings better than the love of giving them the gospel?  But do you, dear sibling, know the gospel?  Churches are confused and unaligned over it, but the Bible is explicit: believe the facts about the Master that are listed in 1 Cori...

One segment of the Church thinks the Holy Spirit gives multiple blessings while the other segment sees one blessing.  They call these blessing by different names, which might not matter, but there is the structural difference between the two views between a phenomenon and continual work. On the one side, the second blessing of the Holy Spirit is marked by speaking in tongues, and then away you go as a fully-fledged Christian who, presumably, has more authority than those Christians who have not spoken in tongues.  There could be other formulations of this idea of the second blessing that doesn't include speaking in tongues as the only particular sign. On the other side, the Holy Spirit is simply with every Christian who has been saved, and He decides when and how to gift us with speaking in tongues or other gifts.  This idea must discuss why there was a distinction in the Bible between salvation and His power by the laying on of hands.  I think that at the very begin...

Whenever I enter a church, no one ever asks me if I believe the basic gospel message or confess Master Jesus.  They assume that life-building exercises will eventually cause whoever wants to be saved to privately ask the pastor what must be done for salvation, or else they assume that the most casual expression of interest in Jesus is salvation, and some think we can fall away from salvation and come back based on our will-worship in keeping from consciously sinning or that our consent to call ourselves Christians will save us.  But there is a definite biblical way to be saved and there is a definite separation between the Church and the World (believing 1 Corinthians 15:1-8 and doing Romans 10:9, 10, 13).  And once the meeting house is cleansed of the World, we can move on to understand and practice Church disciple and shunning on the one hand and eternal security of salvation on the other.

"Surrender your life to the Lordship of Christ, repenting of your sins" is preached in some congregations as salvation doctrine.  It is subjective by measuring how much and in what way that surrender is done.  Does repenting of sins mean the literal and straightforward giving up of every single sin, seeing how this is in order to be saved in the first place, or does repenting of sin (singular) mean believing those four tenets of salvation doctrine Paul learned and then wrote to the Corinthian congregation in 1 Corinthians 15:1-8 and calling on the name of the Master for salvation by verbally confessing "Master Jesus" (Romans 10:9, 10, 13), turning away from sin as a single thing toward the one Master Jesus the Messiah?  Just what is meant by "repenting of your sins"?  Are the two concepts compatible or opposites: making yourself, through a choice of your willpower, to stop all sins and think that that is surrendering your life to the Lordship ...

Should the Church help the World?  Only if we make it obvious that their soulish and physical lifting does not compensate for their lack of justification in the eyes of God.  Teaching the World the benefit of society won't make them children of God.  We should definitely tell them how to be saved, and, to do that, we have to get together first on the issue (1 Corinthians 15:3b-8 and Romans 10:9, 10, 13). The Church should definitely help the Church, even though the Church hasn't often cooperated in such mundane matters as we rely on the World for, and most of our actions and livelihoods are in the World.  It doesn't need to be that way.  It shouldn't be that way, because God's love and truth cause us to be able to create society among ourselves without fear, in the free usefulness we desire so that no one but Christ controls our communities wherever two or three are gathered together in His name. We should love our enemies - that's true.  We should, even mo...

Next time you go to church, look them all in their faces and speak with them a little, and find the meek, lowly and humble ones who know their sin, and befriend them, asking if they need anything and inviting them to eat with you at your home over a Bible study and prayer, mutually worshiping God.  Home Bible study and simple but true brotherly love is a fine way to proceed past the mockery of Churchianity we suffer.  "Master Jesus, help us find Your people to love honestly and to communicate with freely, to our mutual benefit and joy.  And thank You for it, greatest God.  Amen."

Disentagling repentance and sorrow reveals that repentance does not mean sorry feeling, but sorry feeling can go along with repentance, and it often does.  Repentance is to turn away from and stop a previous belief or action.  Sorrow often enforces a willed choice to stop doing the repented thing, but sorrow does not guarantee that.  When we are sorry, we often resolve not to do what made us sorry again, which is repentance.  Also, when we explain why we did something, we mean to show that the situation reveals why we don't want to do it again, or that we have some reason or can show some desire to resolve ourselves against doing it again.  Repentance is not a feeling of sorrow, it is an act of the will to keep from doing a thing in the future.

There are some times when we quietly stuff our emotions and hold back our true words in situations when we should feel freely and speak to help that we harden out hearts against truth. We've been recently trained in our societies to freely feel, so now realize that your speech is powerful for righteousness when it is true, except the hearer disregard God's truth that you speak, and powerful for evil when it is false, except the hearer disregard your falsehood. Feel, seek, see, do, speak God's Truth, and know sanity.
