Watchman Reporting Government Gone Rogue, to Such Levels That Are Linked to Their Absurdly High Levels of Stupidity, Hypocrisy, and Incompetence EVIL Wicked Behaviour

By StevieRay Hansen | January 11, 2023

SRH: If they are going to prohibit gas stoves because of supposed dangerous air pollutants connected to respiratory sickness, etc., then they should also ban Democratic politicians and bureaucrats because of their ridiculously high levels of idiocy, hypocrisy, and ineptitude, for the same reasons. HNewsWire: The United States government poses serious health risks. Everyone must join the power grid and give up their independence or perish of hunger, they say. Some of these individuals have gone renegade. They need to be taken out of positions of power and authority where they may spread their nonsense no longer goes unanswered. How inefficient! Natural gas stoves have been linked to a number of health issues, including respiratory distress, and a government agency is considering a countrywide ban. U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) director Richard Trumka Jr. told Bloomberg News that the agency…

Watchman: Daily Devotional, Then We Won’t Have to Fear the Passing of Years

By StevieRay Hansen | January 11, 2023

Watchman: Daily Devotional The judge stood in full view of the runners in the ancient Olympic Games, bearing a crown of leaves for the winner to wear. If you were running in that race, you could see the judge holding your prize as you came around the curve. It was there in front of you. That was where you’d put your attention. You would not glance at the folks beside or behind you. You would concentrate and flee. Similarly, we are in a race-the race of life. And as we near the end of our journey, we must look ahead and toward Jesus. “Therefore, because we are surrounded by such a large number of witnesses to the life of faith, let us take off every weight that slows us down, particularly the sin that so readily trips us up,” says…

So Pfizer, Through Satan Soldier, Elitist Gottlieb, Used Twitter to Suppress the Truth in Order to Sell More Kill Shot Vaccines. When Will the Pfizer Brass Be Indicted? If a Normal, Everyday Person Did That? We’d Be In Trouble, “Jail”

By StevieRay Hansen | January 10, 2023

SRH: Don’t beat about the bush; this is a depopulation caused by artificial intelligence. Bill Gates’s Kill Shot bioweapon! Our criminal justice system and the rest of the world are full with unbelievable hypocrisy. When I was 34 years old, I spent six years in prison for passing fraudulent checks. These scum can lie, murder millions of people with an airborne hazardous bioweapon they created, and yet go free. All of us are in the Tribulation now; may God protect us. A fast return, Lord Jesus. HNewsWire: In Sept. 2021, President Joe Biden declared a “pandemic of the unvaccinated,” and blamed this on the roughly 80 million Americans who failed to get the COVID-19 shot. However, by 2022, vaccinated people made up the majority of the population, with about 79 percent of adults having completed at least their initial shots. The most recent Centers…

“Trust Me; I’m From the Government, and I’m Here to Help You.” the Most Dangerous Words Known to Mankind, Kill Shots are Ok

HNewsWire: This will go down in history as one of the most notorious government scandals of our time. Meanwhile, the safety of the patient (one who receives a jab) is irrelevant! Tell me how many congressman including the females of and Pfizer execs got the jab? I bet the farm-NONE! It takes decades to get approval, yet the push to vax the population with an experimental drug that is not approved with no studies attached is a crime against humanity! On purpose to lower the population, in 5 years. Pfizer has spent more time in courtrooms than most people know. They have been sued and have paid out massive amounts of money for their misdeeds. Pfizer paid out the biggest health care fraud settlement in U.S. history as part of a $2.3 billion fine for illegal marketing, along with other penalties.…

The Watchman Reporting Satan Soldiers at CDC Finally Releases Vaers Safety Monitoring Analyses for COVID Vaccines – At Least They Finally Got Around to Doing Something

By StevieRay Hansen | January 9, 2023

The weak and stupid cull themselves HNewsWire: All will be listening to the Monty Python refrain, “Bring out your dead.” So, basically, everything alleged about the side effects that was completely denied as false information by pharma and the government was true. People don’t like to hear that they were tricked into poisoning themselves. Symptoms don’t define a disease; They are only an indication that something is causing a condition. Did you notice that the flu disappeared during the Covid scam? I had one lady tell me that the flu disappeared because everyone wore masks. Remember also that VAERS is NOT the only data the CDC has available to them. They have V-Safe data and also have data supplied directly from Health Providers and Insurers. We know after FOIA releases that V-Safe shows an identical picture, so none of the…

Watchman Reports When a Deadly Pestilence, AKA a New Virus, Initially Appeared in Late 2019 in the Central Chinese City of Wuhan, the Government and W.H.O. Minimized the Illness’s Lethality and Obscured the Exact Scope of the Spread

By StevieRay Hansen | January 8, 2023

HNewsWire: A new, deadly virus first appeared in Wuhan, a city in central China, late in 2019. The authorities attempted to minimize the virus’s risk and conceal the extent of the spread. It wasn’t until late January 2020 that Chinese authorities revealed that the unknown virus could spread between people. Because of the delay in public warning, the illness spread to become a worldwide epidemic. Cases had already been recorded in the United States, Thailand, and numerous other countries by the time Wuhan was shut down. To slow the spread of the virus, dozens of countries put travel restrictions on Chinese tourists around February 2020. As a result, the dictatorship launched attacks on nations that were taking safeguards. The foreign ministry claimed these nations were “sowing fear,” despite the fact that most of China has already shut down. “When you put…

7TH HEAD, 10 KINGS, DESTRUCTION, PEACE AND SAFETY… NOW ON DECK!

By Edward O'Hara | January 7, 2023

Are we seeing the set up for the 10 kings ruling with the beast empire? It does appear so. And if we are where I believe we are in HIS-story it is the next step in God’s prophetic word. So is the real reason for all the confusion and wrong doing regarding our voting process really just a way to wake people up so the process can be fixed? Or is it possible that this is being done because it’s time for a new Constitution… for the whole world? To bring to pass the 7th head empire Rev.17 refers to. Let’s look at some of the particulars and find out. We know that our voting system has been abused for a long time. In fact I have a book that was written in the 80’s about little known facts about…

Watchman: Daily Devotional, God Empowers and Equips Every Believer Who Trusts Him Enough to Act On His Word

By StevieRay Hansen | January 7, 2023

  Matthew 14:22-33 Sometimes obeying the Lord feels as if we’re taking a chance. Like Peter, we may find ourselves in a precarious situation, overcome by fear. Although life is filled with uncertainties, biblical truths never change. As we focus on them, we’ll be able to obey with confidence-not in our desired outcome, but in the Lord’s faithfulness. We can count on God being with us. It’s impossible for believers to live a single day without His presence because our relationship with Him through our Savior Jesus Christ is a permanent one (Heb. l3:5). God’s love for us is deep and abiding, and His promises are sure. When He calls us to leave our “comfort zone,” we can obey because He’s there at our side. God’s enabling power is ours. The Holy Spirit gives us divine strength to do what the Father…

THE “BRICS”: PROPHETIC TAKEDOWN OF THE HARLOT In Rev.13 we see a beast that rises up out of the sea. This beast has 7 heads and 10 horns. The sea it rises out of is all the peoples of the earth that have a desire for peace and safety. Paul says of this beast in 1Thes.5:3 that there will be peace and safety. And while the people are saying peace and safety then comes the sudden destruction of the great tribulation. So the time just ahead that comes out of this attempt by the woman riding the beast to stake her final claim over the world will be the time of peace and safety Paul spoke of. As this time of global peace and safety arrives, a time many refer to as the dawn of the age of Aquarius, it’s…

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.
