Verse of the Day, seems very fitting for current events

[98valk]

1 Peter 2:15-16 (Amplified Bible)
For it is the will of God that by doing right you may silence (muzzle, gag) the [culpable] ignorance and irresponsible criticisms of foolish people. Live as free people, but do not use your freedom as a cover or pretext for evil, but [use it and live] as bond-servants of God.

Are u calling me a FOOL?

they thought the wright brothers were fools also.   how did that work out?

[Robert]

Unfortunately like we see in the latest voting issue the only one sounding the warning was the so called conspiracy websites.

 The news media did NOT say a word and in fact if they did they pushed a much different narrative that we had an incumbent president that we in fact DO NOT HAVE.

The president and others already knew what would happen in this election as witnessed the posturing and actions to make sure a Supreme Court judge was appointed and had investigators at sites, the push to not have mail in ballots and going so far as to explain to those that could understand the problems that would arise.

When the Russia hoax broke originally news media and the public was all over it and trying to impeach the president. They push it and pushed it and it was only the alternative sites that were giving the actual truth. If the alternative sights had not dug and given people hope and telling the truth on what had happened the conclusion may have been again totally different.

It was a vindication of the so called conspiracy sites and today you might call the news media the actual conspiracy theorists since they have been WRONG time and time again. They push a narrative like a sleeping pill on the public so the powers that controls them get what they want.

IF this was not so, WHY has social media BANNED all conservative websites, Stalin would be proud.

 Like Benghazi that was reported there was nothing to see we found out that there was and the narrative given was a total lie and Hillary and a few others could if someone would pursue it be brought up on murder charges. ALL NOT THROUGH THE NEWS MEDIA EITHER.
 

The roles as it seems with most things have been reversed, the news media is NOT to be trusted and the alternative sites are more correct in their reporting.

This election was the best example of that fact. You could say that it was the media pushing a narrative they wanted in trying to get the people to believe that the election was fair, when ITS NOT. They push and hope to swing public opinion on their side which could stop anyone from having the courage to investgate this election. Now that we have we find real corruption. 

I would have to classify those today who just listen to the media as sheep, the uninformed, the naive and actually unamerican.

let me get my dinner then my news then to bed and work the next day, repeat for everyday. 

I am not saying there is not false reporting on the alternative media sites and somethings sound way out there but if I had told you there would be a one world government just 10 years ago I would be looked at as I was nuts.

 Today its an accepted fact, and the bible told us 2000 years ago what would happen and we watch as these things that seemed the stuff of conspiracy websites actually come true.

The news only reports on things after they happened and still get it wrong.

Alternative sites tell you a direction and they get it right more than the news.

So who are you going to believe?


We have a few on this board push the media accounts of what was happening, they were wrong, They were wrong on the Russia hoax, Benghazi, the reason for the riots and now sound kind of uninformed and never apologized for not only being wrong but putting many through the hoops of proving their statements. All the time making straw man arguments and breeding confusion and division.

Who are you going to be? The virus is 99.9 percent cure rate not the 30 percent death rate the media touted in the beginning.

[The emperor has no clothes]

Not QAnon, that’s for sure.

[Robert]

Not QAnon, that’s for sure.

And you would know how? please point out where they have been wrong and make it a real discussion not a straw man one, otherwise you are no different than the new media itself. 

I am more than willing to review the past history and predictions that the Q's have made and see what actually transpired. You bring out where the news media was right from the beginning and we will see who actually holds the tin hat award. We can start with the Russian hoax.

[Gryphon Rider]

These verses are not so much about the irresponsible criticisms of foolish people, but about the command to do right, of which silencing criticism is a natural consequence.  The "freedom" spoken of is freedom from the rituals and ceremonies required by the law given through Moses, such as the laws regarding circumcision, sacrifices, and diet, and also freedom from the shackles of our sin nature.  See Galatians chapters 3-5, 1 Peter 1:3-7.

[Robert]

silencing criticism is a natural consequence. 

Please clarify this statement, thanks

As you develop a reputation for integrity and charity, it becomes harder and harder for foolish people to level accusations, whether true or false, against you.

It is harder for people, even though they are against you, to level legitimate accusations against you, because there is little to accuse you of.  As you become more righteous, it will become difficult for someone who is aware of his own unrighteousness to accuse you, lest his hypocrisy be found out.

It is harder for someone to level false accusations against you because those accusations will be countered by people who have observed your consistent integrity and charity.

  In the last few days I have found Romans;13 to apply a bit now.
Remember that rules have been broken and by whom.
