“Woe unto them that call evil good, and good evil; that put darkness for light, and light for darkness; that put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter!"(Is 5:20)

And woe unto them who love this wicked, evil world, for "the WHOLE(not just a portion) world is under the control of the evil one!"(1John 5:19)

Discernment clearly reveals that all nations are of this wicked, evil world!

"For when for the time you ought to be teachers, you have need that one teach you again which be the first principles of the oracles of GOD; and are become such as have need of milk, and not of strong meat. For every one that uses milk is unskillful in the word of righteousness: for he is a babe. But strong meat belongs to them that are of full age, even those who by reason of use have their senses exercised in the DISCERNMENT of that which is good and that which is evil." (Heb 5:13-14)

Discernment!  Now why is discernment needful?

There are those who would testify that discernment is not needful, not realizing that every choice, every "yes" or "no" they voice requires such. Others would accuse those who exercise discernment of 'judging' and/or self-righteousness. Truth is that discernment is choice’s partner in life, especially for those who desire to "cleave to that which is good".

As concerning 'good' and 'evil'? Well the 'god of this world', he who is “the father of the lies” is “d”evil and he has made a game of such ;-( The "gevid’ game! The good and evil game ;-( A deadly game and there are many participants, all of whom are losers ;-(

First you begin with two evils, such as there are in physical warfare among the nations of this world, all of whom serve "the god of this world". Now when warfare commences between two nations and they begin to murder each other, most onlookers naturally 'choose' sides. They have 'discerned' that this side, or that side, is the “righteous(good)” side so, they align themselves with that nation(s).

Now if it were a case of them believing they had chosen for the lesser 'evil', well that would be a problem, yet not as grave a problem as is caused by what usually happens.

For those who have chosen sides(and i speak not of those who believe killing and war is a 'good' and necessary thing), the lesser 'evil' in their own eyes gets their support and sympathy. And as the chains of "strong delusion" bind them tighter and tighter, the lesser 'evil' becomes their version of 'good'(gevid) ;-( Such is the way a lie becomes 'white', shadows become light, lust becomes love, and that which is of this "wicked world" becomes the desire of someones heart ;-(

Sad ;-(

Very sad indeed ;-(

And The Spirit must flee ;-(

WWII was a prime example. One of the nations, declared to be 'good' by 'christian' and other religious systems, perpetrated the greatest act of terrorism yet known to mankind, as tens of thousands of civilians were 'nuked' in an instant. That same nation, the u.s. of a., was born in the bloodshed that was rebellion against authority, and now seeks to put down any rebellion that is not of their liking. Of course they call such a rebellion the 'evil' kind. They won't accept The Truth that all physical rebellion is of the flesh and is 'evil', for they were born of the blood shed in rebellion. Using force of any kind, or the use of any thing that would provoke a nation of this "wicked world" to use destructive force, is not 'good'.

Yet systems of religion, all of which  are of the 'god of this world', are but systems of "strong delusion" for they have made 'gray' there favorite color ;-( So it is that their version of “good” has become but another form of “evil(gevid)" ;-(

Sadly, because of this world's systems of religion, “Truth lies dead in the streets” ;-(

Yet there is hope that there would be those who would choose for the 'good', those who would choose to declare the 'lesser evil' to be just that! 'evil'! That can not happen without 'discernment' for many of you read, and read again that "the WHOLE world is under the control of the evil one" and yet you remain steadfast in your love for a certain portion of the 'WHOLE". And such worldly 'love' soon causes one to believe the 'WHOLE' does not apply to their ’portion’ of this wicked, evil world ;-( And the chains of "strong delusion" bind them tighter and tighter!

Now if you believe what this world, and some of it's religious systems, call the 'bible,' why do you delude your own selves?

Why do you consider the 'WHOLE' to be but a 'portion'?

Is it because you are comfortable?

Those who find their comfort in, and of, this wicked, evil world, will soon find themselves conforming to that which makes them comfortable ;-(

Are you feeding on the fruit "of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil"? Or is your food The Truth as revealed in the Testimonies by "of a cloud of witnesses"? Are you one of the witnesses? Or have you chosen to be of those who “wrest the scriptures unto their own destruction” because of your "love for this world and your own life in it"?

Simply that which is of The Only True GOD, Father of ALL is Good, all else is evil(not Good)!  

"Exercise your senses", "stand in the gap" and above all receive "a love of The Truth", without which The Life remains but a shadow, and “the lust of the eye, the lust of the flesh and the pride of life” cause one to call “good, evil and evil, good” ;-(

Quit playing the game!

Thankfully HOPE IS!   For TRUTH IS!   And Miracles do happen!

And unless one experiences The Miracle that is receiving "a love of The Truth", The Life can not, and will not be experienced!

Peace, in spite of the dis-eases(games) that are of this wicked world, for "the WHOLE(not just a portion) world is under the control of the evil one" indeed and Truth.......

So it is the brethren of The Messiah have taken heed unto The Call of Our Father and GOD to:

"Come Out of her(babel>confusion>babylon>world>religion), MY people!"

No longer do we play religion's game!

And soon, and very soon, we will be taken Home, Home at last!

Till then:

Father Help!       and HE does.......
