#1 Following: Jesus the Annointed King. Why?๐Ÿค”๐Ÿง Jesus created the universe. He claims all as benevolent King, and I cordially invite you to voluntarily join his expanding Kingdom. I believe that #bitcoin is a significant tool for taking back power from the forces of darkness. Read me here: https://peakd.com/a/@creatr/b Husband, Father, Grandfather, Great-Grandfather
GM and Happy Sunday, friends!๐Ÿ™๐Ÿ’–๐Ÿฅฐ I couldn't have composed a Sunday message more strikingly relevant than this, and so I am boosting, quoting, and passing along this wonderful message... Jesus, the Creator God of the universe, offers us this concept of REST. Sunday (the Sabbath), also traditionally every seventh year, and then an extra year after 49, the 50th year, the Jubilee Year. We need to rest... We need to realign... Like Apple used to say, "Think Different." Like Google used to say, "Don't Be Evil." It's time to rest. It's time to realign. It's time to REPENT... Time to change our evil ways, and follow Jesus instead... Please read this!๐Ÿ™๐Ÿ’–๐Ÿฅฐ๐Ÿš€๐ŸŽ‰ View article โ†’

Please listen to this shocking discussion between Larken Rose and Craig Harguess about the recent notorious murder by a federal agent, and then have a conversation with yourself and see where YOU stand on matter...
Outstanding nostr author, @Max ... ...recently published this brilliant essay as an antidote to the stunted, false-dichotomy thinking of many Libertarians: View article โ†’ I'm a big fan of his work. @Max expresses things remarkably clearly, and brings fresh perspectives that help people focus on core issues. For this, I am truly grateful. However, there is an identity group which I believe to be vastly larger than either political (upper-case "L") or generic (lower-case "l") libertarians, and which suffers from similarly self-limiting choices. I'm referring to those who self-identify as "Christians," very typically part of local, regional, and national membership organizations known as "churches" or "denominations." Like the Libertarians, these church-goers desperately need awakening to the Third Option @Max has so cogently described... absolutely beginning, as he has said, ***"with clear-eyed recognition of what the state actually is."*** Cast into Biblical terms more familiar to "Christians," the state is metaphorically Egypt and Babylon, an oppressor falsely claiming the place of God Almighty by violently asserting control over every living soul in its assumed territorial jurisdiction. The prevailing world-view among "Christians" has for a long time been that the "Two Realms" @Max speaks of are equally valid, and I believe this has resulted in what we observe as two major factions in Christendom; "Christian Nationalists" and the rest of the church. My counter-diagnosis is that the Two Realms he speaks of areโ€”from a more accurate Biblical perspectiveโ€”identifiable as The Kingdom of God vs The Fiefdoms of Satan... aka, all human state organizations speciously claiming a monopoly on violence. Thereforeโ€”to the bitcoin meetups, conferences, and other nascent local groups @Max has mentioned as local manifestations of the Third Optionโ€”I would like to promote the notion that peaceful, autonomous, local faith-based gatherings of Christians (until now self-identifying with the misnomer of "churches") should be added to his list of parallel antidotes to the current violent system. For those of his readers who may be interested in this theological perspective, here are a couple of links to relevant essays I've written during the last decade: Be sure to follow @Max for his fine, much-appreciated work!๐Ÿ™๐Ÿป๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ‘
