Kill Shot And The Long-Term Dangers Of Experimental MRNA Shots

By StevieRay Hansen | April 26, 2023

“Let’s start with a thought experiment: If an engineering design flaw exists and no one measures it, can it really injure people or kill them?” a Twitter user named Ehden writes.1 He goes on to discuss an overlooked aspect of the COVID mRNA shots, something called “codon optimization,” which virtually guarantees unexpected results. Ehden explains:2 “Trying to tell your body to generate proteins is hard for many reasons. One of them is the fact that when you try to run the protein information via ribosomes which process that code and generate the protein, it can be very slow or can get stuck during the process. Luckily, scientists found a way to overcome this problem, by doing code substitution: instead of using the original genetic code to generate the protein, they changed the letters in the code so the code would be […]

Watchman: Daily Devotional, Reject the Gospel as False. Unbelievers Reject the Good News That All Sinners Can Be Saved Through Faith in Jesus Christ. Atheists Have No Faith Because They Reject the Bible as God’s Inspired and Authoritative Word

By StevieRay Hansen | April 26, 2023

Daily Devotional: You will also notice that a major characteristic of nonbelievers is a hatred of the truth and wisdom found in God’s word. Those who reject the Bible’s claims are more likely to embrace the lies of the devil, which cater to their fallen nature, than they are to embrace the truth of God, which is revealed in the Bible. They readily accept the falsehoods of this world, which are unable to provide them with the eternal life their precious souls require. The truth of God’s word is offensive and painful to those who reject God. And Revelation 21:8 says that those who refuse to believe will be tossed in the fiery lake of fire with Satan and his angels. If you don’t believe in Jesus Christ and what He did for you on the cross, you’re already damned […]

Watchman: Long Lines Are Back at Food Banks Around the U.S. As Working Americans Overwhelmed by Soros/ Bill Gates/Obama/Biden Plandemic, American’s Turn to Handouts to Help Feed Their Families

By StevieRay Hansen | April 26, 2023

HNewsWire: Families pour into food banks in droves, Inflation has made it difficult for many Americans to feed their families, despite the fact that the US unemployment rate is at its lowest level in decades. Food banks around the country are working longer hours because of this. On Wednesday, June 29, 2022, a long queue of cars forms outside the St. Mary’s Food Bank in Phoenix to pick up food boxes.Increasing food and energy costs, rising rent, and the termination of government COVID-19 assistance are all adding stress to consumers who are already constrained for cash. The aggregate CPI now stands at 9.1 percent, the highest level in 40 years. Using an adjusted “misery index,” which combines US labor force participation and the Consumer Price Index, this level hasn’t been seen since the early 1980s.In this regard, we return to […]

Gov. Ron Desantis Cracks Down on Children’s Drag Shows: This Guy Is Aware of the ‘Disturbing Trend’ of ‘Sexualizing’ Young People. He Should Be the Next President of the United States

By StevieRay Hansen | April 25, 2023

HNewsWire: Following reports of the state filing a lawsuit against a nightclub in Miami that gives drag performances to children, Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis (R) chimed in on his administration’s attempts to combat child sexualization and warned of the “disturbing trend” of society attempting to sexualize young children. “There was a video out of Dallas where they had all these young kids putting money in the underpants of these drag queens at a club, and that’s just inappropriate,” DeSantis stated, adding that similar circumstances subsequently occurred in the Sunshine State. “So we said, wait a minute, this is incorrect, it is not compatible with our legislation and policy in the state of Florida, and it is a troubling tendency in our culture to attempt to sexualize these young people,” he said. “That is not how you protect our children.” DeSantis […]

By StevieRay Hansen | April 25, 2023

  HNewsWire: U.S. clients and puppets have committed the greatest atrocities known to man, from murder and torture to coups and genocide, behind a wall of impunity and protection from the State Department and the CIA. The blood trail left by this violence and anarchy runs right back to the steps of the United States Capitol and the White House. “The concept of an honest puppet is a paradox Washington has failed to overcome everywhere in the globe since 1945,” historian Gabriel Kolko remarked in 1988. What follows is a quick rundown of the failure’s history. Afghanistan is number one. In the 1980s, the United States collaborated with Pakistan and Saudi Arabia to destabilize Afghanistan’s socialist government. It provided funding, training, and weapons to troops commanded by traditionalist tribal chiefs whose dominance was endangered by their country’s development in education,…...

By StevieRay Hansen | April 25, 2023

Evil people are controlling. They’re liars. They delight in misfortune. They make you feel weird on the inside. You know the worst part about it all? They aren’t ever sorry for the things they do and the way they make you feel. Evil people truly have no remorse. If you press them on the fact that they’re unapologetic for their malevolent behavior and dark personality, they’ll deflect, push it off onto you, and gaslight you into thinking the reality you know to be true isn’t actually true. In reality, all they want to do is maintain their current quality of life by controlling you, and an apology would indicate fallibility. The evil ones in our world want you to see perfection to keep you wrapped around their fingers. Admission of fault would shatter that image they’ve carefully cultivated. HNewsWire: Satan […]

No weapon formed against you shall prosper, And every tongue which rises against you in judgment You shall condemn. This is the heritage of the servants of the Lord, And their righteousness is from Me," Says the Lord.

Vice President Mike Pence told a crowd of graduates from the Christian-based Liberty University in Lynchburg, Virginia, that they ought to be ready for ridicule because this secular world is about as intolerant of those of the faith as can be.

There is no doubt that persecution is a stark reality of living the Christian life. Christian persecution is to be expected: the apostle Paul warned that “everyone who wants to live a godly life in Christ Jesus will be persecuted” (2 Timothy 3:12). Jesus said that, if they persecuted Him, they will also persecute His followers (John 15:20). Jesus made it clear that those of the world will hate Christians because the world hates Christ. If Christians were like the world—vain, earthly, sensual, and given to pleasure, wealth, and ambition—the world would not oppose us. But Christians do not belong to the world, which is why the world engages in Christian persecution (see John 15:18–19). Christians are influenced by different principles from those of the world. We are motivated by the love of God and holiness, while the world is driven by the love of sin. It is our very separation from the world that arouses the world’s animosity (1 Peter 4:3–4).

Christians must learn to recognize the value of persecution and even to rejoice in it, not in an ostentatious way but quietly and humbly because persecution has great spiritual value. First, the persecution of Christians allows them to share in a unique fellowship with the Lord. Paul outlined a number of things he had surrendered for the cause of Christ. Such losses, however, he viewed as “rubbish” (Philippians 3:8) or “dung” (KJV) that he might share in the “fellowship of [Christ’s] sufferings” (Philippians 3:10). The noble apostle even counted his chains as a grace (favor) that God had bestowed upon him (Philippians 1:7).

Second, in all truth, Christian persecution is good for believers. James argues that trials test the Christian’s faith, develop endurance in his life, and help develop maturity (James 1:2–4). As steel is tempered in the forge, trials and persecution serve to strengthen the character of believers. A Christian yielding graciously to persecution demonstrates that he is of superior quality as compared to his adversaries (see Hebrews 11:38). It’s easy to be hateful, but Christlikeness produces kindness and blessing in the face of evil opposition. Peter says of Jesus, “When they hurled their insults at Him, He did not retaliate; when He suffered, He made no threats. Instead, He entrusted Himself to Him who judges justly” (1 Peter 2:23).

Third, Christian persecution enables believers to better value the support of true friends. Conflict can bring faithful children of God together in an encouraging and supportive way they might not have known otherwise. Hardship can stimulate the Lord’s people toward a greater resolve to love and comfort one another and lift one another to the throne of grace in prayer. There’s nothing like an unpleasant incident to help us reach a greater level of brotherly love.

Even in the face of Christian persecution, we can press on. We can thank God for His grace and patience with us. We can express gratitude for those whom we love in the Lord and who stand with us in times of distress. And we can pray for those who would accuse, misuse, or abuse us (2 Corinthians 11:24Romans 10:1).

A working definition of hate speech is "speech that is intended to insult, intimidate, or cause prejudice against a person or people based on their race, gender, age, sexual orientation, political affiliation, occupation, disability, or physical appearance." If that is the accepted definition, a Christian should never participate in hate speech. However, the problem is that the definition of hate speech is broadening over time. Proclaiming that a certain belief is wrong or that a certain activity is sinful, based on biblical principles, is increasingly being included in the definition of hate speech.

Ephesians 4:15 refers to "speaking the truth in love." First Peter 3:15 instructs Christians to defend their faith, but to do so "with gentleness and respect." Colossians 4:6 proclaims, "Let your conversation be always full of grace, seasoned with salt." Sadly, some Christians fail to follow these biblical instructions. Some Christians (or at least people who claim to be Christians) speak the truth but speak it in such a way that it is very hateful. One prominent example would be Westboro Baptist Church and its "God hates fags" slogan. Westboro Baptist Church is correct in declaring the Bible's teaching that homosexuality is sinful, but they are declaring this truth in such a way that it is intended to be incendiary, offensive, and hurtful. Needless to say, the Bible does not support such methods.

It is likely that in the near future, governments will begin declaring more speech as hate speech, thereby making it illegal. In some parts of the world, it is illegal to say that homosexuality is a sin. In some countries, it is illegal to declare one religion right and other religions wrong. This steady broadening of what qualifies as hate speech could eventually lead to any effort to evangelize being declared hate speech since it would be "hateful" to tell a person that what he/she currently believes is incorrect.

What the perpetrators of this expanded hate speech definition fail to realize (or admit) is that to tell someone the truth is an act of love, not hate. Is it hateful for a teacher to tell a student that his/her answer is wrong? Is it hateful for a building inspector to tell a construction company that they are building on a faulty foundation? Of course, the answer to these questions is no. However, that is precisely the illogic that is being applied to current hate speech legislation. Telling someone that his/her religious views are wrong is somehow hateful. Telling someone that his/her lifestyle is immoral is somehow hateful. The logic is not, in any sense, consistent with how truth is determined in other areas of society.

Our goal is to speak the truth in love. We do not hate Muslims, Hindus, Buddhists, Catholics, Mormons, or Jehovah's Witnesses. Rather, we simply believe that these groups are making some serious theological and biblical errors. We do not hate homosexuals, adulterers, pornographers, transsexuals, or fornicators. Rather, we simply believe that those who commit such acts are making immoral and ungodly decisions. Telling someone that he/she is in the wrong is not hateful. In reality, refusing to tell someone the truth is what is truly hateful. Declaring the speaking of truth, presented respectfully, to be hate speech, is, in fact, the ultimate demonstration of hate.Source

It is impossible to find anyone in the Bible who was a power for God who did not have enemies and was not hated.

Like Joseph and Daniel of the Old Testament who served secular kings, we are called to serve everyone and help them fulfill their divine destiny. Jesus made it clear that people who want to lead or be great must be the servants of all. Serving is the way of leadership in the kingdom.

Forcing our way onto the world is not great leadership. Some accuse us of doing this very thing because we speak up on moral issues. It is important that we speak up on issues, but it's also equally important that we love everyone no matter their persuasions.

Someday Jesus will rule the world; in the meantime, we should just serve well and let our good works speak of our Father who loves everyone.

  1. God’s Love does not persecute, discriminate , hate, abolish, torture, kill, arm, buy guns, judge to determine intention for persecution, go blind, block HOLY Spirit, so help stop religious hate and persecution through dismanteling wicked assemblys of misinformed folks

  2. Romans 8:34, “Who is he that condemneth? It is Christ that died, yea rather, that is risen again, who is even at the right hand of God, who also maketh intercession for us.”
