2Co 4.7
“…We have this treasure in earthen vessels, that
the excellency of the power may be of God & not of us.”
“…The fuller of pride anyone is himself the more impatient
will he be at the smallest instances of it in other people.”

tattoo # 2. When I first heard (early 50s) of the antichrist & his mark, it seemed to my young mind that this mark would be FORCED on people (& it may be, in some). Around this same time I never saw tattoos on any but men – hear this – & most, if not all, army/navy guys. Now I see Inking on woman & young people. Not saying this as a fact – but I can imagine that some may take the antichrist Mark (tattoo?) with pride; Proud to be in league with the “god of this world” (2Co 4.4); part of the antichrist SYSTEM. – 3/3/23
“…We must unlearn what the spirit of the world has taught us…yet [the]
greater part of Christians live & die slaves to the customs & temper of the world.”

Ancient of days
The oldest thing we earthly know,
Was once as young as falling snow.
Ancient hills were once fresh dirt;
Your coat was once a lone, sheep’s “shirt.”
All we know had a launching day.
A point beyond which it had no sway.
All except for our glorious, great God,
He alone precedes sky, sea, and sod.

One of the curses men suffer who’ve been lured into reading lesser “bibles” is losing Memorized verses. If you read “If we have only hoped in Christ in this life, we are of all men most pitiable” (ASV) in 2019
Read, “If only for this life we have hope in Christ, we are of all people most to be pitied” (NIV) in 2020
Then, “If in this life only we have hope in Christ, we are of all men the most pitiable” (NKJV) in 2021
Read, “If for this life only we have hoped in Christ, we are of all men most to be pitied” (RSV) in 2022
And, “If we have only hoped in Christ in this life, we are of all men most pitiable” (WEB) in 2023 you will have no SOLID idea of what 1Co 15.19 actually says. Come back to the CLASSIC KJV. – 3/9/23
“…As great as the power of the world is it is built on a blind obedience
& we need only to open our eyes to get rid of its power.”

Perhaps we’re related, or spent part of h.s. together, or had other connections in the past. You went one way – I’ve endeavored to go another. Your path has meant “fun,” fraternizing with men & women of the world, even dipping into a sinful life. My trail has lead toward the Classic Bible, a pursuit of the holy life, & being ready to exit earth. I hope you regret following the path of least resistance (I occasionally pray for you). I assure you, I have no regrets about the trail along which God has lead me. – 3/10/23
Heb 1.1
“God, who at sundry times & in divers manners
spake in time past unto the fathers by the prophets”
You need to stop seeking “fun” for your mind/body from satan’s inventions; he has many & enticing ones may be “coming down the pike.” STOP. Secondly, guard what your child reads or what videos he watches (if you allow such). Guard where your child goes & THERE is exposed to satan’s creepy inventions. If you don’t stay alert, your “Johnny,” your “Suzie,” will imbibe a love for the toys of the fallen, electronic world. satan is sly. The only hope for your soul & your child’s soul is having Christ IN Your Home! – 3/11/23
“…The world by professing Christianity is so far from being a less dangerous enemy than it was before that it has by its favors destroyed more Christians than ever it did by the most violent persecution.”
