nonalien1,

I do not want to alarm you, but as you were shaving before taking your avatar picture, I think you missed
a small spot there on the bottom of your chin. But I won't tell anyone, I promise.


the last avatar picture was to show off my MAGA hat.Now I'm back to my generic selfie. Thanks for not mentioning my shaving miss. It's usually braided now anyhow.

Where do you live? If your home is on this earth, I have some bad news for you. If not, I have some wonderful news for you. Some of you are now thinking, ‘what is he talking about’, and some are thinking, ‘I know exactly what he is talking about’.

I borrowed the title “Love not the world” from a Watchman Nee book – one of the best. And he borrowed the title from the Bible. (1 John 2:15) But this is not a summary of the book, it contains some of the same principles, but this is very much for us today.

There is one safe place to live. It is in the secret place of the Most High with the knowledge, understanding and the wisdom of God, and His now-speaking word by His Spirit. (Psalm 91:1)

By definition the world is the socio-political, economic and life-style order adorning the earth, which is the physical planet.

The world is reaching the culmination of the greatest drama of all time. The world teeters like a target tin, shot down, mortally wounded, moaning and groaning as it goes down.

The world will soon end up where it is heading!

Why are we to “love not the world?”

1 John 2:15 “Do not love the world or the things of the world. If anyone loves the world, the love of the Father is not in him.”

Romans 12:2 “Be not conformed to this world but be t***sformed by the renewing of your mind...”

1 John 5:19 “The whole world lies under the grip of the evil one.”

Revelation 12:9 “He (antichrist) has deceived the whole world.”

John 12:31 “Now is the judgement of this world; now the ruler will be cast out.”

The world was doomed the moment Adam sinned. The curse upon Adam went into the earth and the world-system created by Adam’s offspring. Nothing can fix it. You can make it look pretty, but that’s like putting a smile on a dead persons face before he goes into the crematorium.

We are to ‘love not the world’ because it has been hijacked by Satan and is devoid of the purifying work of the cross. It is at enmity with God.

The world is alive. Its spirit lives within it with a host of demons, and they all serve their god, Satan. The world was meant to be full of miraculous majesty and glory, but it has been locked up and imprisoned by Satan and his hordes of demons.

We are to ‘love not the world’, but we are to love its people in terms of getting them saved, and we are to love God’s natural creation.

Forerunners of the four riders:



There are ominous fiery storm dark clouds surrounding the locked down world, now emerging into its soon-coming tribulation. Little horses are running, ahead of the big horrible horses.

God warns before judgement. The four big riders of the apocalypse in Revelation are metaphorical riders of enormous judgements on the world throughout the tribulation period.

The four riders of the apocalypse soon to ride are:

●The white horse, crowned rider, which speaks of great worldwide deception. ●The red horse who takes peace from the earth with the sword of war. ●The black horse rider carries a pair of scales, saying ‘A quart of wheat for a denarius and three quarts of barley for a denarius’, which speaks of famine induced hyperinflation. ●The pale horse speaks of worldwide death and hell and k*****g with the sword, plagues, hunger and death and by beasts.

At the Olivet discourse our Lord repeats these same signs as the primary signs of the end, with a few extras thrown in like earthquakes. Other passages also list the same signs.

The major signs of judgement are: deception, war, famine, hunger, pestilence, plagues, and economic trouble. Earths upheavals would fall under the general category of the rider of death.

We are now seeing the release of the forerunners to these catastrophes as a warning of things to come!

So, if these are the judgements soon to be released with far greater intensity than ever seen before, what on earth would be the cause?

The big universal sins that bring judgement are: ●The mass murder of the unborn or innocent. ●The destruction of God’s order for a strong nation under God, which includes God’s definition of marriage and family. ●Universal moral decay. ●Coming against Gods plan for Israel. ●The support of some of the church on these things.

The people of the world encourage each other to participate in these sins.

1 John 4:5 “They are of the world, therefore they speak as of the world, and the world hears them.”

The grand failure:

The world with all its intelligence, has tried to build the world since Adam.

●The Stone Age failed. ●The Babylonian Age failed. ●The Age of Noah failed. ●The Empire Ages failed. ●The Catholic-created Dark Ages failed. ●The Reformation failed. ●The Renaissance failed. ●The Industrial Revolution failed. ●The Age of Enlightenment failed. ●The Space Age and Atomic Age failed. ●The Information Age failed. ●The post-modern age failed and now ●The Post-God Age has failed.

(By the way, the Reformation did succeed in bringing the church out of the dark ages, but failed in that it produced division - denominations.)

Most of these ‘ages’ produced enhancements but failed to bring about world peace, unity and love.

We are now in the end stage of the last of these ‘Ages’ – the Post-God Age. Modern man has booted God out of society and now the boot is on God’s foot!

All through all the ages, another ‘age’ or kingdom has been there side by side all along. This is the eternal, invincible glorious holiness-based kingdom of God. You can only be born into this kingdom. You can’t even see it if not born again. (John 3:3)

It is not only the Adamic life that ends through the cross, but also the Adamic world. It is Adam’s proud flesh trying to build a new world order of peace and trying to reach God that dies with you on the cross. Nothing of the old world, to which you have died, is resurrectable.

The world can meet us and get along fine with us, until they meet Messiah in us. Then the waters are stirred! Sometimes the world in its hypocrisy tries to imitate the things of God, but their good works are soon seen to be dead and stinking, like filthy rags.

You need spiritually opened eyes and ears to understand these things. Note in the verse below that it is God who causes spiritual blindness upon the Messiah rejecting world.

John 9:39 “For judgement I have come into this world, that those who do not see may see, and those who see may be made blind.”

Attainable victory for some:

1 John 5:4-5 “Wh**ever is born of God, overcomes the world. And this is the victory that has overcome the world - our faith.”

Most people today have moved so far off course they have a long hard journey to get back, and a huge amount to forsake and change in their lives and beliefs.

With too many the attachment to the world is too strong to break and they will go down with it.

P***e is the underlying reason for the refusal to accept a godly worldview.

In a world of increasing sin, stress follows. People are now under severe stress in many ways. Stress is a feeling of weight bearing down, a narrowing, constricted path with walls closing in, and the inability to get out, People have no place to hide, they have lost control. Stress lingers like a dark cloud over people. They feel locked up.

Here is the answer in one sentence: To find new resurrection life, you must lose your life in the world! Die to it through the work of the cross and the help of the Spirit. Then new life implanted in you will begin to arise with all its good fruits.

2 Corinthians 4:17-18 “Our light affliction which is but for a moment, is working for us a far exceeding and eternal weight of glory, while we do not look at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen, for the things which are seen are temporary and the things not seen are eternal.”

The release of the antichrist:

The world will not only run into God’s wrath, it will run into Mr. Anti-God – the antichrist, soon to be released, in all his destructive wonder.

The world is now prepped for the great deceiver to walk onto the stage.

Daniel 11:21 “In his place shall arise a vile person (antichrist) to whom they will not give the honor of royalty; but he shall come in peaceably and seize the kingdom by intrigue.”

Daniel 8:25 “Through his cunning he (antichrist) shall cause deceit to prosper...and shall magnify himself in his heart (p***e). He shall destroy many in their prosperity. He shall even rise against the Prince of princes; but he shall be broken without human hand.”

The verse below is insightful as look into it. It contains an interesting hidden gem:

2 Thessalonians 2:7-8 “The mystery of lawlessness is already at work; only He who now restrains, will do so until He is taken out of the way. And then (immediately), the lawless one will be revealed, whom the Lord will consume with the breath of His mouth...”

►The restrainer is the Spirit-filled church. The phrase “and then” in the original contains the thought of immediacy. It is “and then, immediately.” That rules out the incorrect view that there will be a long gap between the rapture and the revealing of the antichrist, to say nothing of the mess that causes with dispensations, the feasts and other prophecies.

The antichrist is released immediately after the rapture, at the start of the tribulation.

The world will be responsible for its own destruction and will crash down like the final act of Samson, like the final Babel falling. The world is unable to walk on stormy water.

Isaiah 1:4-5 “Alas sinful nation, a people laden with iniquity, a brood of evildoers, children who are corruptors! They have forsaken the Lord...Why should you be stricken again? You will revolt more and more. The whole head is sick and the whole heart faints...”

Democracy is doomed -it will v**e God out!

There is only one way the unsaved world can create and live in world peace: The world must k**l God, because He identifies and judges sin, and He is bringing in true peace without sin in its core, to supersede all efforts of the world through the ages.

A biblical world-view sees a nation under God. Democracy sees a nation under man with the separation of church and state entrenched. (Jeremiah 17:9) A nation under man is a nation under Satan, at the end of the day.

It’s not good manners to call someone’s mother a whore. The world calls itself, “mother earth.” But look what God calls it:

God refers to the world as the “mother of all whores”! (Revelation 17:5) (If you haven’t discovered it by now – God cares nothing for political correctness!)

The god of modern man is democracy. It authorizes the heart of man, which is “desperately wicked.” T***h is cast out in the street. (Isaiah 59:14)

Democracy continues to v**e God out. That will very soon make way for the greatest dictator ever to take control of the democrats, left behind!

The kingdom is coming – God’s way!

The kingdom of God is coming on the wings of war and numerous great upheavals.

Just a taste of the age to come, the kingdom of God, is powerful. It produces loss of taste for the things of this world.

It is impossible to love this age and be a successful Christian. If you do, you must be an enemy of the cross, because it separates world from the kingdom. God won’t change or fix the world. He delivers us from it, boots and all.

●John 18:36 “My kingdom is not of this world.” ●John 3:3 “Unless you are born again you cannot see the kingdom of God” (or the world). ●1 Corinthians 15:50 “Flesh and blood cannot enter the kingdom of God” ●Hebrews 12:28 “The kingdom of God cannot be shaken.”

We can of course live successfully in this world, within our calling, with the cross at work keeping us neatly socially distanced from the c****a (crown) of worldliness and its god, while we wear an invisible mask protecting us from the breath of the devil. Our great v*****e is the word of God infiltrating our blood with the pure sin-free blood of the Lamb.

At the new birth, you are not made a better person. You are k**led in spirit and born anew! So too must the world be to you. At the new birth you have an automatic birth right to the eternal victorious kingdom of God.

A new holy world is coming but only after judgement. Holy Ground is the meaning of the word “Ararat”, on which the ark of Noah landed, after judgment.

Galatians 6:14 “...The world has been crucified to me and I to the world.” (John 8:23)

The cross k**ls the world to you. It’s a two-way death. The world thinks we are dead to it and useless to it, and we think of it, we are dead to it and it is useless to us.

Be careful of finding your life in the world. Be careful of ministries that have a money and materialism motivation or centrality. They are devoid of the cross! They are many!

When the world is under spiritual influence, material things fulfil their proper subordinate role. Released from this restraint, they manifest the illegitimate power behind them and become ripe for judgment.

Free indeed:

The world is Satan’s tarnished masterpiece, flourishing in its rotten fruit, teetering on the edge of eternal hell. We must see the spirit of the world so that we are not drawn into it. Our heart has been delivered from it, now our thinking must be released from its grip.

When your life has come out of the world, your money and your materialism, as well as your desires becomes sanctified. Yes, the cross can sanctify your money too. (2 Corinthians 8:5)

We are the light of the world, not the world! Our light is not to make it look good, but to shine into its evil darkness. Light exposes what is in the dark. The world has nothing but the sounds of silence to offer the true Christian. The world echoes with emptiness.

We have the sounds of orchestras of salvation to offer it.

The closer you get to our Lord the more clearly you see, hear, think, speak and do the things of God. But also, the more alienated from the world you become as it sees you as an alien!


So, we are not to love the world or the things of the world, because God says so, and because they are all due for soon coming destruction. The world –system has grown large in the soil of sin and evil, now inextricably a part of it. Its days are numbered.

We are to love the kingdom of God, not yet fully visible to our eyes, but it is there already triumphant and waiting in anticipation for us to walk in through its gates of glory, to meet its great cloud of witnesses cheering us on. (Hebrews 12:1-2)

Isaiah 55:6-7 “Seek the Lord while He may be found, call upon Him while He is near. Let the wicked forsake His way and the unrighteous man his thoughts; let him return to the Lord, and He will have mercy on him. He will abundantly pardon.”

It’s time to start looking to, and being concerned with things of eternal value and consequence.

How dumb to go forward unprepared to meet your maker, especially in these days!

Welcome to the Police State!
Researched by Pastor Gary Boyd

What problems do we solve when we shoot a man in the back for sleeping in a Wendy’s drive thru because police agitated the situation to begin with? Where do the police go from here after they choked out G****e F***d? What problem was solved there? We can go on and on with police murders over the past 40 to 50 years, but I think you get the picture.

“This is not a new world: it is simply an extension of what began in the old one. It has patterned itself after every dictator who has planted the ripping imprint of a boot on the pages of history since the beginning of time. It has refinements, technological advancements, and a more sophisticated approach to the destruction of human freedom. But like everyone of the super states that preceded it, it has one iron rule: Logic is an enemy, and t***h is a menace.” – Rod Serling. Twilight Zone

How do you get a nation to become so docile that it accepts a police state? How do you get a populace to accept metal detectors and pat downs in their schools, bag searches in their train stations & airports with full body scans, tanks and military weaponry used by small town police forces, surveillance cameras on their traffic lights, police strip searches on their public roads, unwarranted and forced blood draws at DUI checkpoints on holidays, and government agents monitoring their communications?

While ramming all this down the public's throat you just might, at some point, find yourself with a r*******n on your hands. Would you not? Instead, you bombard the citizenry with constant color coded alerts, terrorize them with with reports of shootings and bomb threats in malls, schools, and sports arenas, desensitize them with a steady diet of police violence, and mesmerizer them with entertainment spectacles and electronic devices, while selling the whole package to them as being in their best interests.

And when leaders like John Kennedy, Bob Kennedy, and Martin Luther King and others have rose up to challenge the government elite, what happened to them? Government agents pull surveillance on them, intimidate them, threaten them, and in some cases cause them to disappear, knowing full well that few will rise up to take their place.

Likewise, when government whistleblowers, lacking followers or name recognition, rise up and shine a light on government’s misdeeds, they are called t*****rs, isolated from their friends and loved ones, and made examples of. This is what happens to those who dare to challenge the deep state police state.

Fixing the Unfixable

What is most striking about the American police state is not the megacorporations running amok in the halls of Congress, the militarized police crashing through doors and shooting unarmed citizens, or the insane surveillance regime which has begun to dominate every aspect of our lives. Now what has become most disconcerting about the emergence of the American police state is the extent to which American citizens appear content to passively wait for someone else to solve the nations many problems.

Thing is if we do not act soon, all that is in need of fixing will soon be unfixable, especially as it relates to the police state that becomes more entrenched and aggressive with each passing day. I am referring to more than a society overrun by the long arm of the law, federal, state, and local. I am referring to a society in which all aspects of a person’s life are policed by government agents, one in which all citizens are suspects, their activities monitored and regulated, their movements tracked, their communications spied upon, and their lives, liberty, and pursuit of happiness, dependent on the government’s say-so.

We Are the Enemy

Indeed, as the continued militarization of the police trends towards over-criminalization of the public, it will not be long before average law abiding citizens are breaking laws they did not even know existed. Like now in some places you cannot collect rainwater to water your lawn, light up a cig in the privacy of your own home, meet with friends for Sunday evening Bible study in your backyard, or be stopped like I was for expired tags, handcuffed taken down to the police station and license taken away, car impounded until I paid for new tags, with a penalty no doubt!

The outlook for civil liberties grow bleaker by the day, from the governments embrace of indefinite detention for US citizens and armed spy drones creeping overhead, to warrantless searches of phone, email, and Internet and prosecutions of government whistleblowers.

Meanwhile, the homeland is ruled by a police industrial complex, as an extension of the military industrial empire complete now with private prisons. Private prisons in the United States incarcerated 121,718 people in 2017, representing 8.2% of the total state and federal prison population. Since 2000, the number of people housed in private prisons has increased 39%. Statistics from the U.S. Department of Justice show that, as of 2013, there were 133,000 state and federal prisoners housed in privately owned prisons in the U.S., constituting 8.4% of the overall U.S. prison population.

The prison industry as a whole took in over $5 billion in revenue in 2011. The companies making the most money from prisons in America are Geo Group and Corrections Corporation of America (CCA), which combined run more than 170 prisons and detention centers. CCA made revenues of $1.79bn in 2015, up from $1.65bn in 2014. Geo Group made revenues of $1.84bn, a 9% increase on the previous year. Private prisons are a multibillion-dollar industry – and growing.

Take for example CoreCivic (formerly Corrections Corporation of America), the largest operator of private prisons in the U.S. In fewer than 20 years, it’s seen its revenue increase by more than 500 percent, from roughly $280 million in 2000, to $1.77 billion in 2017.

So is there a profit to be made off locking you up for petty offense? You betcha!

Everything our founding fathers warned us about, a standing army that would see American citizens as enemy combatants, is now the new norm folks! The government, local law enforcement now being an extension of the federal government, has trained its sights on the American people! We have become the enemy! And if it is true, as the military claims, that the key to defeating an enemy is having the technological advantage then “we the people” are at a severe disadvantage.

These troubling developments are the outward manifestation of an philosophical shift underway in how the government views not only the Constitution and the Bill of Rights but “we the people” as well. What this reflects is a move away from a government bound by the rule of law to one that seeks total control through the imposition of its own self-serving laws on the populace.

All the while the American people remain largely oblivious to the looming threats to their freedoms, eager to be persuaded that the government can solve any problem that plagues us, whether it be terrorism, an economic depression, an environmental disaster, or a v***l p******c. As Hillary once said never let a crisis go to waste. And the squalor in DC doesn’t miss a trick!

A word about the guy at Wendy's. He was asleep there because he was drunk. The situation escalated when he became combative as the police tried to arrest him. He assaulted an officer, stole a Taser and fired it at the officer. He was a danger to civilians in the area.

We found 85,000 cops who’ve been investigated for misconduct. Now you can read their records.
In 2019, USA TODAY led a national effort to publish disciplinary records for police officers. G****e F***d's death has renewed calls for t***sparency

John Kelly, and Mark Nichols, USA TODAY
Updated 9:48 a.m. EDT June 11, 2020
At least 85,000 law enforcement officers across the USA have been investigated or disciplined for misconduct over the past decade, an investigation by USA TODAY Network found.

Officers have beaten members of the public, planted evidence and used their badges to harass women. They have lied, stolen, dealt drugs, driven drunk and abused their spouses.

Despite their role as public servants, the men and women who swear an oath to keep communities safe can generally avoid public scrutiny for their misdeeds.

The records of their misconduct are filed away, rarely seen by anyone outside their departments. Police unions and their political allies have worked to put special protections in place ensuring some records are shielded from public view, or even destroyed.

Reporters from USA TODAY, its affiliated newsrooms across the country and the nonprofit Invisible Institute in Chicago spent more than a year creating the biggest collection of police misconduct records.

Obtained from thousands of state agencies, prosecutors, police departments and sheriffs, the records detail at least 200,000 incidents of alleged misconduct, much of it previously unreported. The records obtained include more than 110,000 internal affairs investigations by hundreds of individual departments and more than 30,000 officers who were decertified by 44 state oversight agencies.

USA TODAY Network has gathered discipline and accountability records on more than 85,000 law enforcement officers and has started releasing them to the public. The first collection published is a list of more than 30,000 officers who have been decertified, essentially banned from the profession, in 44 states.

Among the findings:

Most misconduct involves routine infractions, but the records reveal tens of thousands of cases of serious misconduct and abuse. They include 22,924 investigations of officers using excessive force, 3,145 allegations of rape, child molestation and other sexual misconduct and 2,307 cases of domestic violence by officers.
Dishonesty is a frequent problem. The records document at least 2,227 instances of perjury, tampering with evidence or witnesses or falsifying reports. There were 418 reports of officers obstructing investigations, most often when they or someone they knew were targets.
Less than 10% of officers in most police forces get investigated for misconduct. Yet some officers are consistently under investigation. Nearly 2,500 have been investigated on 10 or more charges. Twenty faced 100 or more allegations yet kept their badge for years.
The level of oversight varies widely from state to state. Georgia and Florida decertified thousands of police officers for everything from crimes to questions about their fitness to serve; other states banned almost none.

What is Gary K. trying to claim in his rant? Jumping on the "Police State" band wagon is popular these days.

To the point of "militarizing the police," criminals are using more, and better, technology every day. Do you wish for the police to be using muskets and black powder, single shot pistols?

The left over military equipment used by today's law enforcement is meant to keep the police, yes the police, safer. The police cannot do the thankless job of protecting civilized society from the mega-attitudes of hatred for the police while criminal elements like gangsters and cartels run roughshod over the civilian population.

He is right about the federal government controlling too much of our lives. We are heading for very tough times in as much as we want our freedom but are surrounded by a world of threats form people that want to, and will, k**l us at the first chance. That is not a true example of a police state. It is an example of the prison we have put ourselves in trying to avoid death from outside of our borders, and now, within.

Some Americans are oblivious to the looming threats to their freedoms. Some are not. As for not wasting a good crisis and the squalor in D.C., if the socialist democrats take control, you can kiss all of your rights goodbye. And militarized federal police will be driving up and down your streets.

At least 85,000 law enforcement officers across the USA have been investigated or disciplined for misconduct over the past decade, an investigation by USA TODAY Network found.
