Love is found in the heart of hearts, not the flesh.

Incompatibility

 

☝️

Negative energy is incompatible with positive energy, much like unholiness stands in opposition to holiness, and hell contrasts with heaven.

Similarly, certain individuals are entirely incompatible with others, particularly those characterized by disrespect, dishonor, and ingratitude.

Such unruly and unworthy individuals typically fail to comprehend the principles required to create wonders, focusing instead on destruction.

What benefit is derived from destroying individuals who are merely riding the wave of life on surfboards 🏄‍♂️ when the tides are beyond control?

Attributing blame to individuals will not facilitate the development of a better economy, healthier relationships, or an improved world, especially as tidal waves impact various sectors and trigger domino effects.

In such a domino effect, those responsible for destruction become incompatible with those capable of resolution, perpetuating their destructive tendencies and deriving pleasure from chaos, even though the destruction of economic and infrastructural sectors exacerbates issues and causes harm.

Those who find pleasure in destruction are incompatible with peace and love, for "love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth" (1 Corinthians 13:6).

Psalm 11:5 also notes that the Lord "hates the one who loves violence."

Furthermore, Jesus teaches that "whoever wants to become great among you must be your servant," contrasting with "rulers of the Gentiles" who "lord it over them" (Matthew 20:26-28).

Just as Jesus, the “Son of Man," did not come to be served but to serve and to give his life as a ransom for many" (Mark 10:45). 

We are also called to serve humanity and use our gifts in the service of humanity and the Lord (Matthew 25:35-40, 1 Corinthians 12:27-28).

How would it be helpful to destroy and turn everything into ruins?

⚠️

Reigning over a wasteland of ruin is to cause a dystopian nightmare of neverending cycle of poverty, hardships, crime, and suffering where no one wins.  

Destruction causes unsustainable prosperity as things are destroyed, including assets and the economy.  

Furthermore, there is no way to sustain power when there is no economic stability, moral authority or legitimacy, and standing in the world.  

Those who think that disregarding the teachings of Jesus Christ would somehow bring about prosperity and power, are greatly mistaken as no one knows better than Christ.  

Peace and prosperity goes hand in hand and so does peace and love, not violence and destruction.

The incompatibility of grandiose delusions with the reality of life's processes or how things actually work and the teachings of Christ only tightens the disconnect between the faithful and the unenlightened. 

We need to return to a compatibility with Christ and Christ's teachings and make peace with the Lord before it is too late and a dystopian nightmare is permanently created for our children and future generations, instead of a heaven on earth.

The traveler lay robbed, beaten, and left for dead on the side of the road. A priest saw him and walked past on the other side. Similarly, an assistant to a priest passed by on the other side as well. It was not until an unlikely helper from an ancient religious order, a Samaritan, that help was given to the nearly dead traveler.

Jesus Christ used this parable in Luke 10:30-35 to teach what it means to be a good neighbor and show compassion and kindness to everyone in need, regardless of their background.

Likewise, is it helpful to a nearly dead traveler to kick them while they are down and in need of emergency care? And tell the traveler who is down and out to get a job while incapacitated and near death, instead of seeking aid?

How great and wonderful is such a person?

And then say to the traveler that while debilitated with abuse, covered in injuries that it's the injured individual who is evil and not those who are abusive, complicit, or did not lift a finger to help out or protect from harm?

Where then is the care, compassion, and kindness?  Where is the protection from harm?

Is it in the curse at the person injured, list all the things a half-dead person cannot do while debilitated and cannot walk or think clearly?

Who is in the wrong and clearly lacking in care, compassion, kindness, and any attributes of a Good Samaritan?  

You Can't Get Blood Out of a Turnip

 

🤔

You Can't Get Blood Out of a Turnip;

Meaning, if you don't have it, you don't have it, especially if you lack talent in a particular area; it won't suddenly appear, no matter how much you push, hurt, or pressure it, because you can't squeeze blood out of a turnip.

You could put a billion workers and a trillion man-hours into a problem, and still not find solutions if those people lack talent. The talent of the talented remains unaffected by external forces.

Similarly, you cannot expect good results, behaviors, or outcomes from a bad or inappropriate source because you can't squeeze grapes out of thorn bushes or figs from thistles (Matthew 7:16).

Likewise, if you turn sinful and corrupt, you won't see good outcomes or salvation because you cannot squeeze good fruit from rot.

“Every good tree bears good fruit, but a bad tree bears bad fruit. A good tree cannot bear bad fruit, and a bad tree cannot bear good fruit” (Matthew 7:17-17).

Prosperity and peace come from the fruit of the Spirit, which inspires empathy and compassion for good works and solutions (Galatians 5:22-23, Ephesians 2:10).

Without good works and strong foundations, nothing will endure or be sustained (John 15:16).

Furthermore, those who believe in deceit and practice lies and myths will be condemned (2 Thessalonians 2:11).

"No one who practices deceit will dwell in my house; no one who speaks falsely will stand in my presence” (Psalms 101:7-8).

Whether these false believers promote myths of grand illusions, self-destruction in sin, or destructive behaviors, nothing good comes from unholy acts.

Every tree that does not bear good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire. So, you will recognize them by their fruits (Matthew 7:19-20).

Rotted fruits cannot be eaten. Building on rotten foundations will crumble and eventually sink into the abyss of decay.

Likewise, no speculative bubble or Ponzi scheme can ever be sustained without eventually bursting. Such grandiose lies or schemes are unsustainable because they are not backed by anything real—real earnings or tangible, measurable values.

Those foolish enough to build upon lies, theft, self-destructive sins, and destructive behaviors will face eventual destruction and damnation when storms come and on Judgment Day (Matthew 7:26-27).

Those foolish people do not understand that none of these unholy acts will ever lead to anything good, innovative, or productive; those ignoramuses are not part of divine wisdom.

In the end, you will still be unable to squeeze blood out of a turnip, especially when there is no understanding, connection, or talent.

There will come a time, as foretold in 2 Timothy 4:3-4, when people will turn away from "sound doctrine" to seek those who tell them what their "itching ears want to hear," wandering off and leading them astray with "myths."

We are warned that false prophets will appear in sheep's clothing but inwardly are ravenous wolves, identifiable by their actions (Matthew 7:15-16).

Shepherds, including church elders, are expected to guide, care for, protect, and lead the flock away from myths, ravenous wolves, and false prophets (Acts 20:28, John 10:12-13).

Shepherds who fail and give in to false teachings - twisting scripture to justify sin, hate, or any myth, including that of Caesar -are to be condemned (Galatians 1:8).

It is impossible to stay on the path of salvation while involved in myths, just as it is impossible to gather grapes from thorn bushes or figs from thistles (Matthew 7:16).

Shepherds must ensure that their sheep are on the path of salvation and are properly cared for and protected against false prophets, myths, and ravenous wolves.

Otherwise, shepherds themselves will face condemnation and punishment from the Lord (Ezekiel 34:9-10, Jeremiah 23:1-4, Matthew 25:31-46).
