β²β²One young devil asked the old man: "How did you manage to bring so many souls to hell?" The old devil answered: "I instilled fear in them!" Answers the youngster: "Great job! And what were they afraid of? Wars? Hunger?" Answers the man:
"No, they were afraid of the disease!" For this youngster: "Does this mean they didn't get sick? Are they not dead? There was no rescue for them?"
The old man answered: "but no . . . they got sick, died, and the rescue was there." The young devil, surprised, answered:
The young devil, surprised, answered: "Then I don't understand???" The old man answered: "You know they believed the only thing they have to keep at any cost is their lives.
They stopped hugging, greeting each other. They've moved away from each other.
They gave up all social contacts and everything that was human! Later they ran out of money, lost their jobs, but that was their choice because they were afraid for their lives, that's why they quit their jobs without even having bread.
They believed blindly everything they heard and read in the papers.
They gave up their freedoms, they didn't leave their own homes literally anywhere. They stopped visiting family and friends. The world turned into such a concentration camp, without forcing
them into captivity.
They accepted everything!!! Just to live at least one more miserable day . . . And so living, they died every day!!! And that's how it was very easy for me to take their miserable souls to hell..... β²β²

This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come. For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemous, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, without natural affection, trucebreakers,..... despisers of those that are good
The wicked plotteth against the just, and gnashing upon him with his teeth. The Lord shall laugh at him: for he seeth that his day is coming. The wicked have drawn out the sword, and have bent their bow, to cast down the poor and needy, and to slay such as be of upright
the ten horns which thou sawest upon the beast, shall hate the whore and shall make her desolate and naked and shall eat her flesh.. For God hath put in their hearts to fulfil his will, and to agree and give their kingdom unto the beast until the words of God shall be fulfilled
who are young men supposed to look up to as role models nowadays? tik tok dancing eboys? we need masculine men to step up and be an example for the next generation.
You cannot lockdown faith! The true story of Manitoba RCMP shutting down a church where all the parishioners were in their own cars. Maybe explains why @BrianPallister has the lowest rating of all the provincial premiers! #CovidMB#COVID19#COVIDIOT
Manitoba Public Health and local bylaw enforcement." Even drive in church is not allowed! One could understand why Christians in Canada could think they're living in a country like China right now!
Thank you for standing up for integrity and principles in government. @KarahaliosPC it was good to see you today at the Queen's Park church service in protest of the lockdown of churches in the GTA. Blessings to you and @jimkarahalios
