Genesis 2:18 Then the LORD God said, “It is not good that the man should be alone; I will make him a helper fit for him.”

War is an immature way to get what you want. Violence is expensive. Most people want peace, and there are more of us than politicians and government agents. It's time to mature.

We're are in an age where you cannot trust physical evidence. Photos, audio, and videos can all be deep fakes. Knowing that we have to make responsible judgements.

Alright, I think I'm gonna off-load SimpleX. I installed it a few months back, and I was able to get some test users. (Thank you very much guys) It worked well enough, but since then crickets. No adoption, no Nostr integration, no critical user wave. No matter how good nap is, it has to achieve critical liftoff. Anyway, I'm saying there's not as a warning or a threat to anybody, but I want to leave the possibility that somehow I missed the boat. If you think there's a credible reason to keep this app, please let me know. Otherwise, I'm probably just going to remove it after tomorrow.

No matter what the truth is about what's happening in Israel/Palestine there is little doubt that it comes out to phenomenal governmental failure, and that largely, it's the innocent civilians that suffer on both sides of this mayhem and tragic evil.

# Christian Anarchy ## A Simple Plan Step One: Spread the Gospel >Matthew 28:18-19 And Jesus came and said to them, “All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, Step Two: Don't Rule Over Others >Matthew 20:25-26 But Jesus called them to him and said, “You know that the rulers of the Gentiles lord it over them, and their great ones exercise authority over them. It shall not be so among you. But whoever would be great among you must be your servant, Step Three: Live at Peace >Romans 12:18 If possible, so far as it depends on you, live peaceably with all. (This list is in order of importance but just do it all.) #christianAnarchy #noKingButChrist #growNoster

Does anybody remember the Iraqi soldiers and babies torn from incubators? If you don't remember, it was a lie to manufacture consent. This just seems familiar.

The State will always produce an elite class that professes to be better than everybody else, and they may initially genuinely believe that and have the best of intentions. In practice people that rule with supreme executive (life and death) authority have already fallen to the sin of pride. More failures will follow. There is no right to rule. Rulers violate rights, and they will violate more to retain power.

# Romans 1:19-20 >For what can be known about God is plain to them, because God has shown it to them. For his invisible attributes, namely, his eternal power and divine nature, have been clearly perceived, ever since the creation of the world, in the things that have been made. So they are without excuse.

I think we have found all the missing armaments that never made it to the front lines in Ukraine.

Jimmy is a hoot, and this will certainly change the national conversation.

# Can God do something new? >Isa 43:19 Behold, ***I am doing a new thing*** ;now it springs forth, do you not perceive it?I will make a way in the wilderness and rivers in the desert. If God can do a "new thing" Open Theism is true. Do you believe God can do a new thing? Can God actually do something new? Do you not perceive it? #openTheism

# Does God listen to people? * Gen 30:17 And God listened to Leah, ... * Gen 30:22 ...God...listened to (Rachel)... * Deu 10:10 ... the Lord listened to me (Moses) ... * Judg 13:9 ...God listened to...Manoah, ... * 1Ki 17:22 ...the Lord listened to...Elijah. .... * 2 Kings 13:4 ...the Lord listened to (Jehoahaz), ... * Eza 8:23 ... he listened to our entreaty. * Psa 66:19 But truly God has listened;... * Jn 9:31 ..., God listens to him. If you believe God listens to people you might be an open theist. #openTheism

Pro 15:29 The Lord is far from the wicked, but he hears the prayer of the righteous. If you believe God hears prayers, you might be an open theist. #openTheism

# A Sign of Idolatry >**Psalms 115:5** *They* have mouths, but *do not speak*; eyes, but do not see. >**Mark 1:11** And a voice came from heaven, “You are my beloved Son; with you I am well pleased.”

When I grew up people didn't lock the doors of their homes. We trusted our neighbors. At the same time every home had a gun. So you weren't getting a free meal and a room if you entered uninvited. We didn't need a fence around our property. Just saying...
